System: I am a second-hand dealer in the world of immortality

"Where is Xuezhai?" Shen Xia carefully folded the paintings painted by the shopkeeper of the embroidery shop.

"No, let me talk about the bookstore first." Jiahe motioned to Shen Xia to pick up "The Legend of the Demon Fox" in the wooden box.

"The Legend of the Demon Fox" is a light novel that suddenly emerged in the past two days. Because Shen Xia has been sending people to help Jiahe's book store these days, thousands of books have to be circulated every day. However, apart from the servants of the Shen Mansion who were sent by Shen Xia to buy books, Jiahe found that a large number of residents came to buy books in the past two days, and the number one seller was undoubtedly "The Legend of the Demon Fox".

"The Legend of the Demon Fox" is not long in length and contains a large number of illustrations. Naturally, it tells the story of a fox demon who has transformed into a human form.

The protagonist of the story is Gu Yuan, a green fox. He has been practicing daily on Dongsong Mountain since he was a child, and one day he "picked up" a human child at the foot of the mountain. Gu Yuan occasionally caught a glimpse of humans who went up to the mountains to hunt and collect herbs, but he had never seen such a beautiful child.

The child has fair skin and a delicate appearance, like jade carved with powder. Perhaps on a whim, or perhaps because foxes themselves like all beautiful things, Gu Yuan decided to keep the child as a pet and named him Shen Shuang.

For Gu Yuan, decades of human life were just a blink of an eye. Gu Yuan felt that in just a few blinks, the child in front of him became as tall as himself. Shen Shuang said that he was going down the mountain to see a world he had never seen before and to get to know other human beings. He also said that he would come back and bring back many gems to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan had no reason to reject him. Just like when he became an adult, he was kicked out of the territory by his parents. Maybe Shen Shuang would need to support himself independently when he became an adult. However, if Shen Shuang could no longer survive in the human world, he could still take him in as his wife. Pet's. Gu Yuan thought so.

Many years later, when Gu Yuan broke through the Six-Tails, Shen Shuang still didn't come back. Gu Yuan was worried that Shen Shuang would panic when he came back and couldn't see him when he went out to survive the tribulation, so he could only follow the human way and drew a five-tailed version of himself on the leaves, then drew a few lightning bolts, and then drew a Vulpix himself fixed the leaves at the door of his cave and went out to survive the tribulation.

The process of promotion for a monk is very difficult, let alone for a demon. In short, Gu Yuan failed to cross the tribulation. He fought hard against the thunder tribulation for three years. In the end, he was distracted because he was worried that the leaves on which he left messages would be touched by other little monsters who mistakenly entered his territory, so he decided to cross the tribulation. Failed.

Forget it if he failed to overcome the tribulation, he just wanted to go back to the cave and have a good sleep. On the way back, he was surrounded by enemies again. After finally dealing with his enemies, Gu Yuan was already scarred. He could feel the strength of his five tails. The strength is also very weak.

As a result, when he returned to Dongsong Mountain, he found that it was no longer called Dongsong Mountain, but Dongsong Town. He also met the little demons wandering around Dongsong Town. They told Gu Yuan that Shen Shuang was back and brought back batches of humans. He razed Dongsong Mountain to the ground and built buildings one after another. Human constructions, and the cost of all these comes from the gems accumulated in the ancient abyss cave.

Gu Yuan didn't believe it. He kept his human form and walked towards Dongsong Town. He relied on his memory and smell to walk towards his cave. Then he saw a magnificent "Shen Mansion". He found that there were prisons around Shen Mansion. , I can't get in at all.

Gu Yuan stood at the door of Shen's Mansion. He looked at the soft land on his territory being filled with hard and flat stones, and the towering trees were replaced by airtight stone houses. He felt so strange, clearly remembering and smelling Everyone told him that this was his territory, but he didn't even have a place to stay.

Gu Yuan still didn't believe that it was Shen Shuang who was leading all this, so he waited near Shen's house. Finally, when a human who looked very similar to Shen Shuang came out, Gu Yuan pounced on him and asked him if he was Shen Shuang. This human said that he was Shen Shuang's son. Shen Shuang stayed in the house and asked Gu Yuan to wait for a while. He went to ask Shen Shuang to come out.

Gu Yuan looked at the pair of eyes that were very similar to Shen Shuang's and nodded in agreement. But what he was waiting for was a joint hunt for him by Taoist priests and monks.

"Gu Yuan, as long as I dig out your demon pill, my father will be saved." He heard Shen Shuang's son say this.

Gu Yuan fought with Taoist priests and monks for three days and three nights. In the end, Gu Yuan had to cut off his tail to survive. Before leaving, he even looked back at Shen's house.

Gu Yuan looked through the door of Shen's mansion and seemed to see Shen Shuang dying on the bed. Was Shen Shuang already that old? Human life is really short. Shen Shuang's son said that Shen Shuang wanted his own demon pill? How could it be possible? It was obvious that Shen Shuang was just a little kid who could only run behind him.

Not long after that, Gu Yuan heard from others that the master of the Shen family, Shen Shuang, was driving to the west. He didn't believe it. He felt that this was a conspiracy played by the people in the Shen family to prevent him and Shen Shuang from getting together. meet.

Shen Shuang's cemetery was also imprisoned. Gu Yuan could not open Shen Shuang's tomb to see if it was Shen Shuang lying inside, but Gu Yuan did not leave. He kept wandering around Dongsong Town. He felt that he was always there. One day I can meet Shen Shuang again.

Shen Xia closed the book. The version Master Shen mentioned before seemed to be the second half of "The Legend of the Demon Fox", but people who tell stories always subconsciously beautify themselves, right?

"If I'm not wrong, the West faces the East, and the China faces the Song Dynasty. The Dongsong Town in "The Legend of the Demon Fox" is the Xihua Town, right? And Shen originally evolved from Shen, and this Shen Mansion is Shen Mansion, and Is Shen Shuang the ancestor of Mr. Shen?" Shen Xia took a sip of tea and continued: "Master Shen and Mrs. Lin have repeatedly warned me not to leave the Shen Mansion because I will be exposed to the sight of the fox demon after leaving the Shen Mansion. And the reason why you are so afraid of me being exposed is because I look very similar to Shen Shuang, right?"

Jiahe looked at Shen Xia's delicate face, with an appearance that could catch the eyes of a fox demon. Shen Xia was probably worse than that.

"But there is still a question. Why do they recognize Yu Xifeng as their son? Is there some kind of curse?" Shen Xia's imagination was wide open. "For example, the eldest son will not die a good death, die alone, buy instant noodles without seasoning, etc."

Jiahe couldn't keep up with Shen Xia's thinking: "What are instant noodles?"

"Ah...haha...it's a specialty of my hometown. I'll let you try it when I get the chance..."

Shen Xia put aside "The Legend of the Demon Fox" and immediately changed the subject: "There is also Xuezhai. Didn't you just say that you wanted to talk about "The Legend of the Demon Fox" first because this book came from Xuezhai?"

Jiahe nodded solemnly: "Yes."
