Becoming a fox fairy from Liaozhai

Chapter 814: Yanxing Mountain Fallen Flower Bay

After coming out of the Fox Courtyard of Moyun Castle, the inspector used a dragon-horse-pulled carriage and rode on the clouds to the Fox Courtyard of Yanxing Mountain.

Yanxing Mountain is not very high. It is located to the north of Yanming Lake. Birds fly back and forth, the grass is lush, and the scenery is beautiful.

The dragon chariot landed outside the mountain gate of Fox Courtyard. The inspectors got off the cloud chariot and saw that the mountain gate of Fox Courtyard was tightly closed, hidden among the ancient trees of Yanxing Mountain. The formation gate opened silently.

Dr. Hu was surprised: "Why are you staying indoors in broad daylight? Go and pass on the message!"

The doctor of the psychic department came forward and knocked on the door. She stood in the forest and shouted, "Where is the dean of the Fox Academy in Yanxing Mountain? The inspector of the Sky Fox Academy is here, why don't you open the mountain gate?"

The doctor of psychic science was also named Hu. He was petite, but when he spoke, his voice was like piercing through the clouds and cracking the rocks, stirring up thousands of layers of waves, and the undulating layers of the forest. If you listened with human ears, it was a human voice. If you listened with fox ears, it sounded like a fox and a bird, and it was as exciting as the cry of a roc.

Dr. Hu twirled his beard and said with a smile, "The sound of the roc pierces the clouds. The way of bird language has already captured its true meaning."

Dr. Psychic laughed and said, "As long as I don't embarrass you."

The sound of piercing the clouds swept through the forest. In just a moment, the trees in the forest changed, smoke lingered, and the gate of the Fox Courtyard in Yanxing Mountain was revealed.

Two pale-faced, panic-stricken old foxes came hurriedly. When they saw the crowd, they bowed and cried, "We respectfully welcome the Heavenly Fox Court's envoy. We hope the envoy can help us!"

Dr. Hu frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The two old foxes told the whole story one by one like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.

"Our dean was captured by King Luohua!"

Yanming Lake is rich in water and grass, irrigating several villages and producing abundant products. Going downstream of Yanming Lake, there is a wonderful place called Luohua Bay.

The name is well chosen, because there is a steep cliff to the south of Luohua Bay, called Luohua Ridge. Fruit trees lean against the cliff. When you sail past in spring, you can often see fallen flowers, and when you sail past in autumn, you can often see fallen fruits.

The flowers and fruits are lush, the fish and shrimps are abundant, the scenery is pleasant, and it is famous far and wide. During every festival, men and women come here to enjoy the scenery and socialize.

Such a good place is naturally not without gods. There is a Fallen Flower Temple on the ridge, where the Fallen Flower King is enshrined, who blesses with good weather, harmonious marriages, and that lovers finally get married and have many children.

It sounds like a positive god, but in fact it is just the opposite.

"The King of Falling Flowers is a ghost that has lived for many years. He is not afraid of the sun, the moon, or the wind. He is very good at playing tricks on people and fooling them. The local infatuated men and women who want to find a happy marriage often worship him in a secluded place in Falling Flowers Ridge and chant sutras for him. Once the sutras are chanted, he will appear and transform into the person in the hearts of the believers, have sex with them, and steal their essence. This old ghost deceives people and occasionally helps them find a marriage, so he is said to be a god."

"If you wish to have a child, you invite this ghost into your home. It will act according to the law and you will end up with a ghost baby, which will die unexpectedly."

"My dean didn't want to offend him, but this ghost has become more and more rampant recently. He wants to build a palace and capture monsters to serve as slaves. He caught us, and two foxes were swept away when they went down the mountain. They were locked up in the haunted house and suffered."

"The dean couldn't just sit there and watch. He was also afraid that the old ghost would harm the fox's practice, so he told me to seal the mountain and wait for you to inspect. He went to ask for her first, but she left three days ago and hasn't come back yet. I'm afraid she has met with an accident."

"Please help me, envoys!"

The two old foxes were crying as they talked, fearing that the dean's life was in danger.

As they were talking, more Mr. Fox and his son Fox came out one after another, prostrated themselves on the ground, and begged the messenger for help.

When Dr. Hu saw the foxes coming to ask for help, they were all so sincere. It was obvious that the dean was very popular among the people, and he felt deeply moved for a moment.

Dr. Hu turned his gaze to Gong Mengbi and asked, "Mingfu, are you willing to take this trip?"

Gong Mengbi nodded and said, "That's exactly what I wish for."

Chun Wanyi volunteered, "I'd like to go too."

Dr. Hu said with a smile, "How could you, an old man from the mountains, deserve the attention of two talented people? Go and come back quickly."

Gong Mengbi looked at one of the old foxes and said, "Sir, please show me the way."

The old fox perked up, shook off his clothes, and said, "Emissary, please come this way!"

Gong Mengbi stretched out his hand and grasped in the air, then gently pulled it, as if pulling a piece of silk hanging to dry on a bamboo pole. The soft silk stretched out along his hand, fluttering, and then turned into a long wind passing by.

The long wind blew up the old fox, and Gong Mengbi's red clothes spread out, like clouds in the wind, floating away.

Chun Wanyi called out, "Wait for me." Then she stepped on the wind called by Gong Mengbi and followed on the clouds.

Another old fox looked worried and asked, "The Flower King is very capable, and these two envoys are very young. Are they really okay?"

Dr. Hu laughed and said, "You don't know their names, otherwise you wouldn't be so worried. One is Mr. Mingfu who wrote the Fox Book, and the other is the apple of the eye of the Chun family. They are not easy to bully."

"Mr. Mingfu who wrote the Fox Book!"

They had no idea about Chun's beloved daughter, but they were very familiar with Gong Mingfu, the author of the Fox Book!
"The dean is saved!"

Dr. Hu glanced at the cheering foxes and couldn't help thinking, "From all this investigation, it can be seen that Gong Mingfu has a high prestige. These wild foxes are nothing at the moment, but if they become powerful in the future, who knows what luck this kid will have."

He couldn't help but feel a little worried about the future, but his thoughts kept turning around, one moment it was the goddess, the other moment it was the Sky Fox Academy, the four great families, and the other moment it was Xun Jijiu. Just thinking about it gave him a headache, so he could only sigh secretly: "Forget it, at my age, I have been a teacher for so many years, why should I bother myself with this matter."

He just smiled gently and said, "Why don't you go back and prepare for the inspection? Your dean will be back soon."

"Welcome to the envoy!"

"Your Excellency, this way please."

On the other side, Gong Mengbi took the old fox Huafeng and headed straight for Luohualing.

It was autumn at that time. Luohua Bay meandered eastward. On the ridge, wild peach trees stretched out from the steep cliffs or simply took root on the cliffs.

Small red fruits hang among the peach leaves. Birds peck at the fruits on the trees from time to time, and then step on the ripe peaches, which fall into the Luohua Bay, splashing water and attracting fish to eat them, which is quite interesting.

The old fox pointed and said, "The Fallen Flower Temple is on the ridge."

In order to avoid disturbing the evil spirit and causing it to do something desperate, Gong Mengbi and Chun Wanyi did not rush straight to Luohua Ridge, but instead sent down clouds not far from Luohua Bay.

Chun Wanyi looked around and suggested, "Since that old ghost likes to play matchmaker, why not put on a show with him and lure him out of the door, then everything will be easy."

She looked at Gong Mengbi, her two talking eyes smiling, and said, "It's just that Mr. Wronged is doing some tricks with me."

She twisted her body and transformed into a pretty young lady, bowing to Gong Mengbi.
