Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person

Chapter 137 Lately, I've been attracting a lot of pink-haired girls.

"Alright, Lao Lu, don't make things difficult for the child." Chen Ruoan waved towards the stair railing, and Lu Linglong waved back in response.

The fact that Lu Jin's wife and precious son were almost harmed is a big deal in the industry. Leaders of various factions called one after another, almost bombarding Lu Jin's phone with calls. Some who were interested had already started heading to Shanghai.

A while later, Lu Linglong's father canceled his work early and took his daughter to the psychology department. Lu Jin waited for news from the company while worrying about dealing with the leaders of various schools of thought.

Besides expressing concern and condolences, the various sect leaders also brought up the matter of Lu Linglong's choice of sect. Even though asking at this crucial juncture was rather inappropriate, quite a few people did bring it up.

This is enough to show how sought-after Lu Linglong is. The Lu family is a well-known talent pool in the industry, and the talent and aptitude of Lu family treasures need no further explanation. If you don't grab her now, you won't be able to grab her later.

"These idiots, why did they have to ask now? They're just adding insult to injury!" Lu Jin slumped onto the sofa, half-jokingly asking, "Brother An, didn't you already take on a disciple? Why not consider taking Linglong on as well?"

Chen Ruoan replied half-jokingly, "Heh, you're still holding a grudge about that embarrassing thing from the past, and you're so reluctant to talk about it. Now aren't you afraid that I'll turn that little girl into a bewitching femme fatale?"

Pink hair and allure, this is such a similar character design.

The Lu family's precious darling will grow into a "Snow Goddess" of the supernatural world, embodying a multitude of qualities including adorable, shy, gentle, brave, quirky, spirited, and proud. Lu Linglong's growth path and outcome are both quite good. It's pointless to be so careless.

Why give it to the fox?

If you can't teach them well, they'll lead you astray and you won't be happy about it.

"I believe in you."

"Forget it, I almost had a stroke from Yuan Shixiao. I'm really not good at teaching people."

Shouldn't the methods of extraordinary people be something that can be learned instantly, then enhanced and upgraded with prayer tokens, allowing them to progress from beginner to expert in no time?

A prodigy with exceptional talent and rapid progress is really not suitable to be a teacher, especially one with cheat codes.

"Let's take Linglong and her parents' opinions into consideration."

No matter how close the grandparents and grandchildren are, they cannot bypass the biological parents and make unilateral decisions on the child's upbringing.

Lu Jin readily agreed and chatted with the fox while waiting for news from "Na Du Tong" and the hospital.

As evening approached, the initial assessment results for Lu Linglong came out. She did not have emotional breakdown, physiological stress caused by acute psychological trauma, abnormal attachment or avoidance instinct, let alone more serious dissociative state and cognitive distortion.

"Grandpa, at first glance, everything seems normal. But I want to observe it further using supernatural methods. In the meantime, we can decide on the choice of school of thought. Let Linglong try out Red Flower Fairy or Vine Mountain first. If it's suitable, she can stay."

Both sects only accept women; the former is skilled in exorcism and blessing rituals, while the latter specializes in medicine making, alchemy, and medicinal baths.

Their main profession is pharmacy, and after completing their training, they become "pharmacists".

Both schools of thought have their own different perspectives on dealing with the question of the soul.

"That's a good consideration," Lu Jin replied. "I'll take Linglong out in a few days. You'll need to keep an eye on Xiaolu as well; it's your responsibility as her husband."

"Yes."

"Brother An, Old Man An...?" After Lu Jin finished instructing his grandson, the fox beside him had somehow curled up in the corner, trembling and looking strangely doubtful about its "fox life".

"What's wrong with you all of a sudden?"

"I remembered some terrible things from the past."

"Huh!?" Lu Jin's expression froze. Whatever could frighten Brother An must be absolutely terrifying.

"It's all in the past. If you're feeling down, would you like to come with me to Red Flower Fairy and Vine Mountain? You should have some old friends in those two schools."

"I can go to Tengshan, but if I want to see the Red Flower Fairies, I need to mentally prepare myself for a long time."

Chen Ruoan still remembers a Red Flower Fairy named Huang Fang, a straightforward and bold older sister who liked to wear bright and beautiful "red and green" outfits, but she did not have the temperament and appearance of Little Phoenix to carry off this look.

More importantly, this person is extremely infatuated with girls.

Fox had never seen a woman in the Republic of China era, a time when women were expected to be reserved and restrained, openly utter words like "I want to sleep with you" and "Give me a kiss," and shamelessly put them into practice.

After the fox revealed its true form, Huang Fang launched a surprise attack. Fortunately, the fox was agile enough that it only left a lip print on its tail. Because her fiery red lips were so lethal, Chen Ruoan experienced several bizarre dreams. He saw two greasy sausages hanging in the air, slowly chasing after him.

Whenever she fails, Huang Fang will use phrases like "humans and demons are different" or "it's normal to kiss and hug a fox" to cover up or gloss over her misconduct.

To the fox, Huang Fang was a warm-hearted, sincere, yet somewhat terrifying older sister.

However, it was precisely because Huang Fang harbored lustful thoughts towards Chen Ruoan that she did not become infatuated and follow Wu Gensheng to the valley to participate in some kind of "learning exchange meeting" to learn strange skills, thus ultimately avoiding the disastrous ending of being hunted down.

The original "Thirty-Six Thieves" were all exceptionally gifted and resilient. The fox didn't know if Sister Huang Fang had gotten married later. She liked to be infatuated and fantasize, but she firmly believed that she was a woman who would remain faithful to one man until the end. Perhaps her temperament would have been tempered after marriage.

Lu Jin also recognized Huang Fang from the Red Flower Fairy sect; she was a veteran supernatural being who had retired from the sect many years ago. Thinking of the old woman's appearance, Lu Jin realized he had asked a fatal question: "Wouldn't it be better if someone prettier chased after you and 'nibbled' at you?"

Just like how kissing "Ru Hua" in Stephen Chow's movies is a completely different experience from kissing you by "Star Girls".

"There's no such thing as that." Chen Ruoan shook her head. "There's only the difference between loving and not loving."

"Furthermore, Linglong and Red Flower Fairy are not destined to be together."

The fox is a creature of destiny; Lu Jin had almost forgotten about that.

"Where's Fujiyama?"

"It's worth a try." In the original story, Fujiyama rejected Lu Linglong because of his ability to manipulate blood, as well as his severe self-destructive tendency to bleed himself dry.

Lu Linglong's inner flaws and darkness stem from witnessing her mother's tragic death when she was young. However, this storyline has now been avoided, which may lead to a new outcome.

"You're the authority, I'll listen to you," Lu Jin decided.

Half a month later, at Longjiao Mountain.

The mountain, also known as Yaogu Mountain, is renowned as the "Pharmacy of Jiangnan." Various medicinal herbs on the hillside have already awakened. Paris polyphylla sprouts tender green leaves and buds, Polygonatum vines entwine shrubs, Gastrodia elata quietly unfolds in the humus, and Ganoderma lucidum and Uncaria rhynchophylla exude fragrance.

It has a faint medicinal fragrance.

Several herb gatherers, dressed in white long gowns, carried bamboo baskets and held small hoes, moving lightly among the grass and trees. Sometimes they had to bend down to part the grass, identify the shape of the herbs, and then pluck off the leaves before carefully picking the herbs into their bamboo baskets.

Standing on high ground, Chen Ruoan gazed into the distance. Everything in the mountains seemed exactly the same as he remembered, but he had genuinely forgotten certain details.

Directly opposite, a pair of sisters from Tengshan were collecting herbs with baskets on their backs. When the younger sister spotted a Dendrobium nobile clinging to the cliff face, she gripped the crevices between the rocks with both hands and stepped on the protruding rocks, moving towards the middle of the cliff face.

"Be careful!"

"It's okay, senior sister, I can do it!"

Chen Ruoan watched quietly, as if she had long since grown accustomed to observing people gathering herbs.

Despite being an extraordinary person, she was quite clumsy when it came to rock climbing. She didn't care about falling and getting covered in wounds for the sake of herbs or worms. Thinking this, the junior sister opposite her loosened her grip on the rock with her right hand and fell off the mountain. She fell uncontrollably towards the foot of the mountain, and the senior sister screamed in fear.

"See, it's just what I thought."

Chen Ruoan raised his right index finger and twirled it, sending a wisp of wind over. The whirlwind carried the falling girl, light and steady.

They suspended her in mid-air and then gently lowered her back to the ground.

The pink-haired girl was still in shock when the plant clinging to the rock wall fell off on its own, its small, light purple flowers gently landing in front of her.

"Hmm?" She looked around, holding the flowers, but couldn't see who had come to her aid. The mysterious figure on the mountaintop disappeared into the clouds.

"Xia He, are you alright?"

"Senior sister, I'm fine."

"You fell from such a height and you're still okay? You only took a medicinal bath once, and you just barely touched the threshold of Qi circulation, yet you're already this strong?" Senior Sister joked curiously.

"I found it strange too; it felt like a gust of wind lifted me up."

"Were the flowers also blown down by the wind?"

"Mm." Xia He nodded.

"You've stumbled upon all sorts of strange and wonderful things. Could it be that the spirits of the mountains are helping you?" The senior sister stood on tiptoe and looked up at the high mountain, but she didn't see any signs of animals.

"Forget it! Let's go back. I heard there's another initiation ceremony today. The girl who's coming is a few years younger than you, from a prestigious family in Shanghai. She has pink hair just like you. They've been recruiting a lot of pretty and cute pink-haired girls lately!"

Xia He asked, "Could she be my junior sister?"

"It's hard to say. Some things can't be determined by talent or aptitude; it also depends on fate. We are destined to become sisters."

"It's fate..." Xia He felt a warmth in her heart as she put the unexpectedly acquired purple flower into the bamboo basket.

With a shake of the bamboo basket, all the glistening dewdrops clinging to the flowers and herbs fell off. With the addition of Dendrobium nobile, all the medicinal materials for preparing the medicine were ready.

The introductory trial at Tengshan involves a medicinal bath to guide disciples to obtain Qi. Disciples with exceptional talent will awaken their abilities directly during the test, but Xia He clearly doesn't have that kind of aptitude yet.

After entering the sect, disciples will learn to prepare secret medicines. After taking these medicines, different abilities will be triggered depending on the maker's constitution and personality. The initial medicinal bath is the foundation, and subsequent personal cultivation is based on this.

This is why Fujiyama's leaders witnessed the development of their disciples' abilities and were also adept at using those abilities to infer a person's character.

"Hmph hmph hmph~" The pink-haired girl sang lightly all the way, having long forgotten about falling off the cliff and the falling flowers: "What kind of ability will I awaken?"

"When Master witnesses my awakening, what kind of child will he say I am?"

"They're pretty well-behaved, aren't they?"

Xia He muttered to herself and ran even faster.

brush!

A short while later, a wisp of pure energy landed on the cliff, and Chen Ruoan returned, holding several bunches of purple flowers in her arms: "Fifty years ago, I told you to pick them in moderation, but nobody listened?"

As soon as the fox did so, the pale purple flowers bloomed again on the rock face.

"Vulnerable species, national second-class protected plant."

What a terrible thing to do.
