Chapter 418 The Fox of Fortune
Zhou Heng did not directly kill the lion demon.
Instead, he shut it into the cave.
On the one hand, this big monster is an ancient alien species, the "Golden Flame Water Lion". It has long since disappeared from the Middle Earth and only exists in the East China Sea. It would be a pity to kill such a rare species directly.
After all, whether it is flesh, blood, hair, scales or armor, this ancient alien species is a good material for refining weapons and elixirs. It is also a good choice to raise it in the cave for emergencies.
On the other hand, this big demon is the mount of one of the Seventy-Two Immortals of the East China Sea. It should know a lot of news about overseas. If you keep it, you may be able to ask some questions.
After imprisoning the Golden Flame Water Lion, Zhou Heng returned to his home in Huangtong Fucheng.
Continue to meditate on the "True Spirit Yuan Heart Sutra".
This method is unpredictable and extremely mysterious. Now that he has embarked on the path of understanding the various conditions of the mortal world, his progress is also very slow.
For the first time, Zhou Heng truly felt the difficulty of cultivation.
"It's so difficult to practice even with my peerless talent. I really don't know what kind of person can practice successfully." Zhou Heng thought to himself.
However, no matter how difficult it is, you must master this technique.
Its spiritual functions are extremely subtle and extremely useful. It is an important step in making up for the shortcomings in the spiritual aspect. Moreover, this method is also the basis of one of the nine seals of the "Yuanshi Golden Seal" and has endless potential.
"Now that I'm back in my hometown, it's like reviewing my past memories. Then maybe I should experience more of the world, travel thousands of miles, and meet all living beings." Zhou Heng fell into deep thought.
"However, the troubles in Huangtong Fucheng are far from over. The golden flame water lion once mentioned Yuque Zhenren, one of the seventy-two immortals in the East China Sea. If what it said is true, there may be loose immortals coming in the future. this.
"Although the Seventy-two Immortals of the East China Sea are just scattered immortals, they are not weaker than normal heavenly beings. I can't leave. Many people have solved this problem, and Yu He's new wife..."
Although Huangtongfu City has the Taoist king Jiang Tafa and should theoretically be one of the safest places in the world, Jiang Tafa is a man from the Middle Ages after all and does not belong to this era in essence. What specifically does Huangtongfu City mean? His attitude is still unclear, and he may not necessarily take action to protect him.
Zhou Heng didn't want to gamble, so it was better to handle the matter himself.
…
At night, the moon is dark, the wind is high, and the stars are dim.
A slim figure walked out of the Yu family's door, quietly turning into a wisp of light blue smoke, wandering along the corner of the street, and soon came to the outside of a very grand mansion.
This is the mansion given to Zhou Heng by Kong Chengshun, the previous head of Huangtong Mansion, and it is also Zhou Heng's current residence.
——Kong Chengshun was promoted half a year ago, resigned from the position of the head of Huangtong Palace, and went to work in Fengzhou County. The person in charge of Huangtong Mansion City now is the new palace master named Huo Qingyun.
The light blue smoke stopped at the door of the mansion, wandering left and right, sometimes backward, sometimes forward, seemingly hesitantly.
Bang!
At this moment, the door of the mansion suddenly opened automatically, and a cold and indifferent voice came from inside.
"come in."
As soon as the voice fell, the light blue smoke fell to the ground, rolled slightly and turned into a white fox.
This white fox is less than a foot long and is quite delicate and cute.
But his body was shaking, as if he was a little scared.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..." It whispered twice, with a pair of golden pupils filled with deep fear. It looked at the open door of the house and did not dare to move.
After a while, it seemed to have made up its mind, and finally decided to step forward and walked into the gate of the house step by step.
The moment it walked into the gate of the house.
Bang!
The door was closed again, and the little white fox suddenly trembled again, frightened and confused, and his eyes were in a trance.
Immediately, it only felt blurry in front of its eyes. When it came back to its senses, it saw that the golden things around it had changed. There were tables, chairs, bookshelves, lamps, candles and jade... It seemed to be a study room.
The owner here is a young Taoist sitting at the table.
"Immortal, Immortal Chief, the little fox pays homage to the Immortal Chief!" Bai Hu was almost frightened to death when he saw the young Taoist. He quickly bent his limbs and knelt down on the ground, "Immortal Chief, the little fox took the initiative to come to the Immortal Chief because he wanted to Please explain something clearly to me."
The young Taoist is naturally Zhou Heng, and the white fox is Yu He's new wife Bai Husheng.
Zhou Heng originally wanted to find time to talk to the fox demon after tonight to see what her attitude was towards the crane, but he didn't expect that the white fox actually came over on his own.
"It doesn't have to be like this." Zhou Heng shook his head gently, raised his hand a little, and cast a golden light on the white fox, saying calmly: "No matter what your purpose is, you are still Yu He's wife after all."
This golden light fell on the white fox, calming its spirit, and then the white tiger transformed into a young woman.
She is Yu He's wife.
"Many, thank you, Immortal." Bai Husheng's face turned slightly pale and he whispered in a low voice, as if he was afraid of irritating Zhou Heng.
"Are you so afraid that I will kill you?" Zhou Heng said with a half-smile.
"I, I heard my husband talk about the relationship between you..." Bai Husheng was very nervous and said in a trembling voice: "You are the best friends. Will you kill me?"
"It depends on what you have done?" Zhou Heng said solemnly: "What is your purpose of approaching Yu He? I want to hear the truth."
"Immortal, don't worry, little fox. Since little fox dares to come, he comes with sincerity and will never deceive you." Bai Husheng bit his lips and said: "To be honest with the immortal, I first came into contact with my husband. Just to save my life.”
"Save your life?" Zhou Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Continue talking."
"I am originally a member of the Fox Clan of the Qingyu Kingdom of the East China Sea. My parents are both great monsters and I have a pretty good background. However, thirty years ago, my parents died for some reason and I lost my support." Bai Husheng said in a low voice:
"However, at that time, I had already refined the demon elixir, and I had some strength. I would not be bullied by others. But a year ago, a disciple of Master Yuque took a fancy to me and wanted to keep me as a pet...
"When I didn't obey, he sent people to capture me and beat me seriously. Fortunately, I had the escape magic talisman left by my parents before they died, which allowed me to escape a million miles away and come to the Great Qi of the Middle Earth. Although my vitality He was seriously injured, but his life and freedom were finally saved.
"But the person who captured me did not give up and was still chasing me. During the escape, I met my husband, and then I came up with an idea, which is to use my innate magical power to combine my own luck with the huge luck of the human race. The sea combines to hide its tracks."
"Marrying Yu He is your way of combining luck?" Zhou Heng said solemnly.
"Yes." Bai Husheng nodded and said, "This is the innate magical power of our clan. Our clan has the bloodline of the ancient spiritual beast, the Fate Fox."
"You can actually hide your whereabouts by combining luck." Zhou Heng frowned slightly and said, "Would this be harmful to He? In addition, do you know who is chasing you?"
