Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

The gentle scholar squatted in front of Shen Li and forcefully grasped his calf, yet gently applied medicine to him. It was a bit contradictory but seemed just right.

Shen Li was a little bit distressed. So far, Gu Ling was the scholar he liked the most. As a successful vixen, she would have already had an affair with the scholar by now.

A gentleman like Gu Ling would definitely be responsible if he had a relationship with me, but worldly prejudices made it difficult for humans and monsters to be together. If a monster was discovered by a monster catcher or hunter, the love between humans and monsters would often end in tragedy.

There are many such examples in the clan, so nowadays fox spirits like to find scholars with average character to spend the night with. One wants to have offspring, and the other wants the other to be beautiful, which is the best of both worlds.

In short, Gu Ling is such a nice person that Shen Li is attracted to him but cannot take action.

Gu Ling applied the medicine, put the ointment away, and said, "I will help you apply the medicine for the next few days until your injury is healed."

Before Shen Li could refuse, Gu Ling continued, "I'm in a hurry to get on my way, and you should be in a hurry to get home too, right?"

Shen Li, who didn't want to go home, said: "..."

Gu Ling picked up Shen Li, but before he finished the action, he heard Shen Li say, "Can I go with you?"

Gu Ling stumbled and hurriedly held the person steady. Shen Li put his arms around Gu Ling's neck, and unexpectedly his lips brushed Gu Ling's cheek and landed beside his ear.

The hot and humid breath sprayed, and Gu Ling turned his head uncomfortably.

Shen Li didn't have any special feelings. As a vixen, he was naturally familiar with all kinds of seductive methods. Even if he had never practiced them in practice, he had seen quite a few erotic pictures.

This little bit of ambiguity is not enough to make a vixen blush.

He poked Gu Ling's collarbone with his finger and asked, "Is it not possible?"

Gu Ling walked steadily without looking around: "Probably not."

Shen Li thought about what her sisters had taught her and knew that now was the time for her to make up a story about her tragic life.

He looked sad: "Actually, I ran away from home."

Next, Gu Ling heard a tragic experience that made him cry.

According to the vixen girl, his parents favored boys over girls and he had seven younger brothers. He had to save money every day and work in the fields.

Gu Ling glanced at Shen Li's delicate white hands, nodded, and motioned for him to continue.

He didn't have enough to eat or wear every day, and in his spare time he had to go to the fields to dig wild vegetables to supplement his family income.

But even though he was so submissive, his parents and seven younger brothers could not tolerate him and planned to sell him to a brothel for money.

He overheard this incident and ran out under the pretext of digging wild vegetables, but he got lost and met Gu Ling here.

Shen Li buried her face in Gu Ling's arms, revealing half of her beautiful profile, and her voice was a little sobbing.

"I am homeless now, so please let me follow you. When I find my husband, I will definitely let him repay you."

He was shaking slightly, as if he was crying, but actually he couldn't hold back his tears and was secretly scratching himself.

Anyway, you can't see his face, so who knows if his body is shaking because he's crying or laughing?

Gu Ling's focus was completely diverted: "Where did your husband come from?"

"It is said that a married woman's husband is her heaven. When I find a good man to marry, I will naturally have someone to rely on, and then I will be able to repay you."

Gu Ling looked disapproving and planned to instill some advanced ideas into the vixen girl.

"We... cough, you women are not necessarily inferior to men. As the saying goes, if you rely on the mountain, the mountain will fall; if you rely on people, they will run away. Only when you are strong yourself can you be truly strong. Some men are not good people. What should you do if you meet a bad guy? You have to learn..."

"So do you have any good friends?" Shen Li interrupted her long speech.

"what?"

Shen Li raised his head and looked at her with trust: "I believe in your character. Birds of a feather flock together. Your friends must be good people."

He suddenly became a little more shy: "If possible, I want to make friends with your friends."

Girl, my friend is a monster catcher. It would be fine if you don’t run away, but you also want to make friends with him?

Also, you look so shy, how can you be considered as someone who wants to make friends?

Gu Ling was very tired, so she put Shen Li down, squatted in front of Shen Li, seemed to want to say something but stopped herself, and finally sighed.

"Forget it. I can take you with me, but you have to listen to me and not do anything bad. You can no longer follow me when we get to the capital."

Anyway, the journey is quite boring, so I might as well keep a pet to relieve my boredom, Gu Ling thought.

Shen Li's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.

Just like that, Gu Ling had a little fox to keep her company on her way to Beijing for the exam.

To avoid gossip, the two of them addressed each other as brother and sister.

Shen Li looked weak, but she was not squeamish. No matter how hard the journey was or how bad the food was, she never complained. Gu Ling felt relieved.

Shen Li had only stayed in a dilapidated temple in the wilderness, and the only humans he had seen were a few scholars passing by the temple.

He knew very well that his identity as a fox spirit could not be easily exposed. There would definitely be many inconveniences when he arrived in a city inhabited by humans, and he would have to rely on Gu Ling's help at that time.

Therefore, he was very well-behaved and obedient along the way, and took the initiative to take care of Gu Ling's food and went out hunting every day.

Gu Ling did not expose the fact that he used magic to hunt. He hunted and Gu Ling was responsible for the barbecue, which was quite relaxing.

In the afternoon, Gu Ling lazily lay on the grass basking in the sun, and Shen Li's soft voice was heard in his ears: "Brother Gu, I want to take a shower."

As a clean little fox, Shen Li has been driven crazy these days. If he doesn't take a bath, he will go bad!

Gu Ling didn't even open his eyes and replied casually: "Well, go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

Shen Li: "But I don't have any change of clothes."

Shen Li's clothes were transformed by magic. He could have conjured up a clean piece of clothing, but for some unknown reason the clothes became clean. No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem right, so he came to Gu Ling to borrow clothes.

Shen Li always remembers that Gu Ling is a mortal and cannot reveal her identity as a vixen.

Gu Ling turned over and pointed lazily: "The bookcase is over there, find it yourself."

After a rustling sound around him, Shen Li's light footsteps gradually faded away. After an unknown amount of time, a strange sound of footsteps sounded, accompanied by a sentence.

"Sir, may I bother you for a moment?"

His steps were heavy, his lower body was unstable, and his breathing was disordered. He was just an ordinary person.

Gu Ling opened his eyes, sat up, and saw a scholar who was also carrying a book box.

The scholar was weak and frail, and the book box on his back almost crushed him. He bowed to Gu Ling.

"My name is Zhao Xi. I'm passing by here and would like to find a water source. Do you know where there is a water source?"

Gu Ling smiled and did not reveal his name. He just showed him the way. After Zhao Xi walked away, he lay down again.

She squinted her eyes and looked at the sun which had shifted a little in the sky, and thought dazedly: It seems like a long time has passed, why hasn't Shen Li come back from taking a shower yet?

and many more!

Shen Li? Taking a bath? !!!

She jumped up and ran in the direction of Zhao Xi, not forgetting to pick up her own book box.

Fortunately, the man was walking slowly and she caught up quickly.

She bowed and said politely, "My name is Gu Ling. I suddenly remembered that the water source is far away from here. I see that you are tired, so why don't you rest here? I will go get you some water. Let's just consider it as making friends."

Zhao Xi was flattered. He didn't know why the person who had been indifferent to him just now suddenly became so enthusiastic towards him.

"It doesn't matter, I can..."

Gu Ling snatched the water bag from his hand and placed his bookcase in front of him, with an expression of obligation: "The bookcase is used as collateral. Don't worry, I will be back soon."

After she finished speaking, she turned and ran, while Zhao Xi stood there in a daze.

In a small pond, a little red fox was swimming around like a beautiful koi and having a great time.

Suddenly, his ears moved and he turned into a human form. His black hair stuck to his cheeks wetly. His black hair and fair skin, a combination of black and white, were a shocking beauty.

He turned his back, his black hair covering his bare back, revealing only a hint of whiteness. He turned his face slightly, his thick and curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and drops of water rolled down from them.

His plump red lips slightly opened: "Brother Gu, why are you here?"

Gu Ling held his breath slightly and covered his heart with one hand: Oh my god! The vixen is indeed a vixen, she is so beautiful!

If it wasn't for the wrong gender, she would have done it.

Calm down! Gu Ling, there are no male vixens in the red fox clan.
