Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person

Chapter 100 The Fox Paints Plum Blossoms

"You've never sent me flowers..."

Wei Shufen squatted beside the blooming flower field, using her right index finger to poke at a delicate wild lily, causing the pale white flower to sway precariously.

Chen Ruoan glanced at her and replied, "Sending flowers after you've clearly stated your needs seems rather tactless, doesn't it?"

"A little?" Wei Shufen wasn't sure what she was thinking either.

"Then, after you've forgotten about it, maybe one day I'll present you with a bouquet of flowers."

"That's fine too." Wei Shufen smiled upon hearing this, and stopped teasing the poor little lily with her fingertips. Her heavy aura dissipated, and the warm early summer sun shone on the flower field, warming the flowers and bathing the fragrant bushes in its light.

After getting to know her for a while, Chen Ruoan seemed to have figured out how to get along with the girl in front of him.

A girl who can regulate her aura is like an air conditioner.

The fox had no choice but to learn the skills on its own and try to become a remote control.

Liu Zhixing picked the flowers, held the bouquet, and adjusted his clothes by looking at his reflection in the stream. Then, he asked the two people beside him in a panic, "Do I have any corpse aura on me?"

"Ordinary people can't smell it."

The corpse was full of corpse energy, and after being refined, there was no smell of decay. Liu Zhixing was completely overthinking it.

"I'm going." Liu Zhixing walked into the house holding the flowers.

Wei Shufen, remembering Zhang Huaiyi who had been traveling with her, asked, "Where is Master Zhang?"

"Ignore him, he's guarding the body."

Chen Ruoan handed over the umbrella, and Wei Shufen hugged the fox, using the umbrella to shield herself, and they followed forward together.

For the people of Jidong, offering flowers to the Luodong woman was an incomprehensible act.

Miao Xiang's grandparents were terrified and at a loss, but they dared not say anything in order to give the fox face. They also dared not refuse. The old couple simply pretended to be blind, just like Dora who loved to explore.

"I have something to give you." Liu Zhixing hid the bouquet behind his back and stood awkwardly in front of the door.

"Is it a flower?" Miao Xiang asked.

How did you know?

"I smelled the fragrance of flowers, including wild lilies, gardenias, and impatiens, all of which are flowers that grow in the mountains and fields."

Liu Zhixing was taken aback: "You're really amazing, you even guessed the type of flower correctly."

"Hmm. The scent of wild lilies is cool and refreshing, not sweet or cloying; gardenias have a warm, sweet, and milky fragrance, sometimes strong, but not unpleasant; balsams have a very light, fresh grassy scent, mixed with a faint, sweet aroma, and they smell even better when the petals are crushed."

Miao Xiang explained calmly.

Shocked, Liu Zhixing felt a surge of inexplicable bitterness.

With nothing to do in the mountains, Miao Xiang must have picked flowers and smelled their fragrance more than once, pouring out her heart to the wildflowers. But the flowers would only sway in the wind and wither away in her memories before she died.

Liu Zhixing picked the flowers and handed them over.

Wei Shufen stood by the window peeking in, the fox in her arms gripping the windowsill with its front paws, stepping on the girl's arm with its hind legs, and peering into the window with its sharp snout.

"Brother Liu, are you straightforward and generous? Are you a direct type or a joker?"

The fox looked inside the house, but Liu Zhixing didn't look at Miao Xiang; instead, he noticed a hole in the roof.

"Your place leaks when it rains, let me fix it for you."

Oh, so you're an action-oriented person.

Chen Ruoan saw Liu Zhixing leave the room to prepare tools for repairing the roof. Miao Xiang tried to refuse but to no avail, so she put the flowers away and went to prepare water and food.

The fox waited quietly and discovered that throughout the day, Liu Zhixing had helped repair the roof, prepared firewood, and offered suggestions to make up for the economic deficit caused by the sacrifice.

Miao Xiang prepared food and water, and would hand over a coarse linen cloth for wiping sweat. She would spend the rest of the time waiting under the wooden ladder for help, or offering to help Liu Zhixing wash his clothes. "It's not what I imagined," Chen Ruoan said.

Their way of getting along is too gentle.

Compared to the listless fox, Wei Shufen read with great interest: "I think the atmosphere is great. The book describes them as reserved and restrained, saying nothing, but everything they do seems to say everything."

"I see."

What's truly strange is the idea that foxes are out of step with the times.

"Where is Zhang Huaiyi?" Chen Ruoan asked.

Wei Shufen retorted, "Aren't we guarding the body?"

"."

'

Having observed Liu's journey for several days, Chen Ruoan seemed to understand that restraint and subtlety.

The fox recalled a saying, "You cannot have youth and the feeling of youth at the same time," but the current atmosphere of the Republic of China era was too far removed from the youth he was familiar with. Everything was restrained to the point of gentleness, as clean as a gentle breeze blowing through the mountains and fields.

The connection between Liu Zhixing and Miao Xiang is becoming increasingly vibrant.

Four days later, the girl, who had been sickly and shy, dared to wipe Liu Zhixing's sweat. The corpse driver's few changes of clothes were also washed several times in a wooden basin.

"Although fate has a backup plan, I dare to encourage Brother Liu to charge forward for love, but this is just too smooth."

Could it be that "sincerity" is truly the ultimate weapon forever?

After a moment's thought, Chen Ruoan extended her fox paw towards Wei Shufen.

"This is for you."

"What is that?" All Wei Shufen could see were the fox's carefully maintained paw pads.

"plum bossom."

It's snowing! It's snowing!

A group of young painters came to the snow.

Chicks draw bamboo leaves, puppies draw plum blossoms... Foxes are canines, so they should draw plum blossoms too.

Wei Shufen understood immediately, covered her mouth and laughed, "You're so silly."

Chen Ruoan withdrew his claws.

See? I knew it wasn't that simple. Wasn't this joke "sincere"?

A fox and a man sat by the stream. Liu Zhixing hurriedly ran out of the house, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is Daoist Huaiyi not here today either?"

"I'm guarding the body for you," Chen Ruoan replied.

"I owe him a huge favor."

Liu Zhixing clenched his fists, hesitating to speak, organizing his thoughts countless times before finally saying, "Brother Ruo'an, thanks to your matchmaking, I've figured it out now! This isn't about heroism or a savior complex at all; it's simply because Miao Xiang is a good girl, and I want to have a future with her."

"I'm setting off tomorrow, and I was thinking of leaving something behind to prove I won't break my promise. But all I have are a soul banner and a soul-capturing bell, which don't seem suitable to give away."

Chen Ruoan stirred up life, and several tender branches crawled out from the bushes by the stream.

Liu Zhixing immediately understood, and then picked some grass, kudzu vines and grass stems, wove them into rings by hand, and decorated them with all kinds of flowers.

After delivering the items, he soon returned happily with long strides.

"The Miao girl was very happy. She gave me this to ensure a safe journey."

In Liu Zhixing's hand was a cross-shaped peace knot woven by Miao Xiang herself from palm leaves, with a rounded bone bead embedded in the center.

"The craftsmanship is good. What kind of bone is in the middle?" Chen Ruoan asked.

"Uh—fox bone."

"Hmm?" Chen Ruoan looked at the inlaid animal bone bead suspiciously: "Where did the local belief in 'animism' go?"

"Hehe~" Liu Zhixing laughed shyly, "I told Miss Miao Xiang that I would come to pick her up after I finish this last trip."

The fox gave a dead fish-like look.

Look, he's setting another goal!

Chen Ruoan had no reply, so she lightly jumped out and stood on the roof of a small house, closing her eyes to concentrate.

The precious tree within the soul condensed into a new precious document, radiating a brilliant purple light.

Some honest people, when reciprocated with sincerity, can forge excellent relationships.

Judging from the purple tinged with gold, the fox and the corpse driver will probably meet again someday.

[The Liu Family of Western Hunan, the Corpse-Driving Clan, Liu's Journey]

Standing beneath the precious scroll, Chen Ruoan pulled the thread of fate, praying, "I wish to add another chapter to our blessed union, and through our joint efforts, steer our uncertain future in a positive direction."

With his wish fulfilled, the light of the precious document fell heavily to the ground. The fox reached out to catch it, and that radiance merged with the "plum blossom."

In.
