I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

In the early morning, the sun shines down, illuminating everything brightly.

With the gentle breeze, this warm light slowly drifts into the quiet and elegant room, leaving deep and shallow mottled light and shadows on the floor and walls.

Because of the screens and shelves, the dancing light stopped chasing the morning wind and stopped in front of the large carved wooden bed.The morning breeze was blowing cheerfully, with the smell of vegetation and dew, unceremoniously rolled up the azure bed curtain, revealing the sleeping state of the owner of the room.

The man was lying on his side on the bed, his long crow-blue hair was entangled casually with the light cream-colored silk clothes, and the front of the clothes was open, revealing most of his chest.The little red fox clung to the man's chest in a ball of fur, closed his eyes, breathed gently, and slept very soundly.

The wind blew the curtain, and Bai Jin slowly opened his eyes.

He didn't need to lower his head to check, he knew in his heart that the little fox in his arms had gone through the most dangerous and fragile period, and now he had re-condensed the demon core and grown twin tails.

"Zhaoxi, Zhaoxi, it really is a rare hope in the world, and I only hope that you and I can be together day and night..."

The slender, white fingers lifted slightly, first rubbed the little fox's ears, and then grabbed her big tail and stroked it.Bai Jin squinted her eyes to feel the soft and fluffy touch, and suddenly understood Pei Xiang's mood when he was rua him.

Pei Xiang had already recovered all his memories at this time, and had just undergone physical remodeling, and was extremely tired and sleepy, when suddenly he was treated by Rua Maomao, and unconsciously let out a comfortable grunt.Then, she leaned closer to the heat source beside her, and the familiar breath made her feel at ease, and she fell asleep more soundly.

Pei Xiang didn't really wake up until around noon.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a white and firm chest, and her mouth was very close to that chest...

The little fox swished and opened his eyes.

"Are you awake?" A smiling voice came from above his head.

Pei Xiang recovered from the fright, and raised her head to look at the handsome and graceful young master of the fox clan. Of course, with her current posture, she could only see the man's gracefully curved jaw and sliding Adam's apple.

"Bai Jin...Young Master?"

"Zhaoxi, did you sleep well?"

Pei Xiang found that the man next to him had no intention of getting up, and his lying posture was not in the proper lying posture of a fox, so he flicked his tail and pulled the tip of the tail out of the opponent's palm.

Then, she rolled around towards the side of the bed, trying to stand and walk on the fox's fours again.

"Shaojun, I have recovered my previous memory, thank you for your maintenance and care these days."

With the memory of being a fox clan, Pei Xiang immediately figured out many things.For example, why does she think that Ah Bai is incredibly beautiful and cute, and she has a natural sense of intimacy in her heart.That's because, judging by their fox clan's aesthetics, the white fox young master is naturally the most beautiful and trustworthy.

——He is the male god of all fox cubs!

What's more, she fully understood the relationship between Ah Bai, the seven-tailed white fox, and Daoist Bai Jin at this time, and also integrated these three images into one.

"Zhaoxi, congratulations, you have regained your fox clan identity."

As Bai Jin spoke, a white light flashed on his body, and he changed into Ah Bai again.He walked slowly to Pei Xiang's side, put his head against her head lightly, and wrapped his tail around hers.

"Welcome home, Pei Xiang."

Warmth flowed from the bottom of Pei Xiang's heart to her whole body. She tilted her head and rubbed against the white brocade. Her black fox eyes were filled with the joy of getting close to her tribe and returning to her.

After the two kissed for a while in the image of a fox, Pei Xiang jumped out of the bed and changed back into a human form.

Bai Jin also turned into an adult man.The loose nightgown he was wearing before disappeared, and turned into a stone blue cross-neck tunic, which looked serious and steady, completely different from the lazy and beautiful demeanor when he was on the bed.

"go to eat?"

"Let's go."

The two left the inn and walked on the bustling and noisy streets of Jinling City.

"Everyone is beaming."

"Today is the eighth day of the lunar new year, the day when the new emperor ascends the throne."

Pei Xiang understood: "So that's it. I was able to recover my memory smoothly this time, and it has something to do with my going to the paddock to help today?"

Bai Jin nodded: "When the throne of the human race changes, there will be some chances. You have seized the chance."

The two were talking, and they turned into a time-honored restaurant.

Ordered a pot of hot tea, and ordered seven or eight signature dishes, and the two of them resumed their conversation when the shop assistant left the private room.

"Zhao Xi, you have recovered your previous memory now, do you want to seek revenge from Jing Huan?"

Pei Xiang nodded slightly: "It's natural, I will always pay back for everything in the past."

Pei Xiang was not surprised that Bai Jin already knew about the grievances between her and Jing Huan.But she was a little curious, why Bai Jin would block the sword for Mingzhao, still in that one-tailed state.

Bai Jin briefly explained the reason why he appeared in Yangzhou City, and how he investigated the past of the little red fox after he discovered Pei Xiang, a member of the amnesiac clan.

"Jing Huan is not strong, but her identity is indeed a little troublesome. She has an immortal status and is appointed to be in charge of Fengyue Qingdu. I can only teach her a lesson and make her suffer, but I can't completely destroy her. If we keep suppressing her, let alone let her die. As long as her immortal status is still there, as long as there are still idiots and resentful women in this world, she will have a chance to make a comeback."

At this time, the clerk in the store came to deliver refreshments, Bai Jin stopped talking and poured two cups of tea for Pei Xiang and himself.

After the buddy left, Bai Jin went on to say:

"Since I found out what happened to you, I have been thinking about how to suppress Jing Huan. I have already contacted the Jinjia Xianwei who is in charge of monitoring through an elder in the clan. I just wait for Jing Huan to make a move. Anything that crosses the border for selfishness can take the opportunity to take away her fairy status and make her become an ordinary love ghost. At that time, you can deal with her as you like. All the suffering you suffered at the beginning can make Jing Huan Taste them one by one."

Pei Xiang took a sip of tea thoughtfully, and instead of immediately agreeing to Bai Jin's suggestion, he suddenly asked:

"That night in the Lin Mansion, Jing Huan let my soul enter the illusion, planning to take me to Lihentian. After I escaped, did you teach her a lesson?"

Bai Jin nodded.

Pei Xiang came to a sudden: "No wonder... she never troubled me again. Bai Jin, thank you for protecting me, but I still want to solve Jing Huan myself."

Bai Jin seemed to have expected Pei Xiang's attitude a long time ago, a trace of curiosity appeared in his eyes:

"how do you want to do it?"

"My idea is actually similar to yours. I also want to get rid of Jing Huan's immortal status first, and at the same time weaken her cultivation, turning her into an ordinary ghost. That way, it will be easier to deal with her.

"However, I don't want to wait for her to make a mistake, and then catch her loopholes. In that case, I don't know how long I will have to wait. I want to take the initiative to do something, so that the Golden Armored Immortal Guard has a chance to make a legitimate move."

Bai Jin frowned slightly: "Zhaoxi, we have a lot of time. If I'm not wrong, you have to take the initiative to do things. In fact, it is not good for yourself, right?"

Pei Xiang twirled the broken hair beside her ear, and lowered her eyes to avoid Bai Jin's worried gaze:

"Bai Jin, do you know why Jing Huan plotted against me in the first place? Why must my soul be imprisoned in Lihentian?"

Seeing that Pei Xiang changed the topic, Bai Jin's heart sank, but he didn't ask questions right away, but said slowly following her meaning:

"As far as I know, it's related to her cultivation. She built a illusory realm in Lihentian, and set up twelve departments in the illusory realm. Each department has a certain number of female souls to help her. Help her deal with the misdemeanor and injustice in the world.

"But I don't know when, the souls of the women in each department no longer just stay in the sky of Lihen. They need to go down to the earth to be reincarnated in the 'Li Jie', to become a life-threatening and passionate woman in the world, to experience the wind, frost, sword, love, hatred and infatuation.

"Only after rolling in the world of mortals for a while, can you return to Lihentian with 'consummation of merit' and continue to help Jing Huan, and wait for the next reincarnation 'Li Jie' by the way."

Pei Xiang was annoyed at the mention of Jing Huan's way of increasing her cultivation, she raised her eyebrows mockingly, and said in a cold voice:

"The souls of the women under Jing Huan have to experience heartbreaks again and again, and each time they return with tears. If there are too many times, how can they not damage the foundation of the soul? Once the foundation is damaged, the path of cultivation will be cut off.

Therefore, there are many female souls under Jing Huan, and the number of people who dissipated is also large. Gradually, Jing Huan no longer looks down on the souls of ordinary women.In order to collect more solid souls that can be driven and used, she instead focuses on creatures with cultivation. I am an example, and so is Lin Daiyu later. "

"Is that so? You are the red fox, and Lin Daiyu is the fairy grass of crimson pearl. It is said that after she transformed into a human form, she has been lingering in the sky of Lihen, and then she has the story of repaying her kindness with tears for some reason. She accepted Jing Huan's suggestion, Follow the romantic friends in Lihentian and the waiter Shenying from Chixia Palace to go down to earth and experience the illusion."

Bai Jin's expression was condensed. Although he didn't know how Pei Xiang learned about Jing Huan's intentions, he already believed her analysis.

Bai Jin's trusting attitude melted away the sharpness and coldness between Pei Xiang's eyebrows, she slightly bent her pink lips towards him, and softened her voice:

"I didn't know much about it at first. But after recovering my memory, I carefully recalled the previous experience, and slowly figured out Jing Huan's thoughts.

"Probably because, um, the little red fox before was too naive and easy to deceive. When the other party persuaded the little red fox to go to Lihentian with her, he revealed a lot of interesting things. The little red fox back then ignored those hidden truths. I just focused on emotional matters wholeheartedly. But now... I have calmed down, and I have deduced a lot of hidden truths from it."

At this time, the dishes ordered before were delivered to the private room, and the two stopped talking for a while, chewing and tasting the signature dishes of this shop.

After a while, Bai Jin asked again:

"Zhaoxi, you have figured out the reason why Jing Huan is staring at you, but how much does this have to do with you wanting to take revenge yourself? You haven't explained clearly, what are you thinking in your heart? Is it developing in the direction of losing both sides? ?”

Pei Xiang blinked, took two more mouthfuls of food, and then said slowly:

"I didn't change the subject on purpose. I specifically explained the reason why Jing Huan focused on me and Crimson Pearl Immortal Grass. I wanted to tell you something."

"What's the matter?"

"Well, after you taught Jing Huan a lesson for me, her plotting against me was exposed. And when I was losing my memory, I accidentally destroyed another arrangement of hers, which made the Lin family and the present day hit each other Relationship. Therefore, Jing Huan should be very vigilant and cautious now, and in a short time, she should not do some bad things that can be caught by others."

Bai Jin was thoughtful: "You mean, for the soul of a mortal, if Jing Huan wants to enter the Illusionary Realm of Lihentian, she hardly needs to spend much thought. Therefore, she will not make mistakes in this aspect at all, and it is not worth it. Only Jing Huan will only use some low-handed methods when coaxing the souls of practitioners, right?"

"That's what I think," Pei Xiang sat up straight, "so, if I don't take the initiative, the deadline for revenge will be indefinitely. And people like her definitely don't hold grudges. I don't want to let this The enemy has been at large all the time, and I don't know when they will be counted."

Bai Jin very much agrees with Pei Xiang's attitude towards the enemy.

"Since that's the case, let's take the initiative to set up a trap and let her make mistakes. Don't worry, I'm here, Zhaoxi, and I won't let you be in danger again."

Pei Xiang shook his head quickly, and his attitude was very insistent: "Young Master, this is my own business, and I can handle it alone. You are not only my friend, but also the Young Master of our Fox Clan. You should be cautious in every move you make."

These words made Bai Jin pause, and he slowly withdrew the light smile in his eyes, his thick eyelashes drooped slightly, and the handsome man who was still radiant just now became visibly gloomy.

"Solve it alone? Friends? Zhaoxi, we've shared the same bed for many days. After you treated me like that, do you still only consider me a friend?"

Pei Xiang blinked, and the beautiful "scenery" she saw when she just woke up appeared in her mind, and she suddenly had doubts about her integrity.

——Did I do something to Bai Jin while I was in a coma?

"You, we are fox spirits, Bai Jin, and fox spirits are not human beings, so even if they get rubbed against each other, um, even if they hug each other, it's no big deal."

Bai Jin immediately rectified his name: "I am a serious fox! Zhaoxi. And, Zhaoxi, you have recovered all your memories now, you know my identity, and you know why I treat you well. All the previous scruples have been relieved. Open. So, are you willing to agree to my pursuit?"

Pei Xiang didn't avoid Bai Jin's gaze this time, she was silent for a while, then shook her head slowly:

"Bai Jin, I'm sorry, I still have to reject you this time. Besides, I don't want you to waste your time and energy on me. I, I really can't be with you."

Bai Jin noticed the seriousness and determination in Pei Xiang's tone, and was very puzzled.

This time is different from five years ago. At that time, he could feel that Pei Xiang's indecision was full of hope.

She likes him, but because of all kinds of inexplicable anxieties and doubts, she still can't make up her mind and can't trust his feelings.Of course, he also had scruples at the time, so he acquiesced in the subtle distance between the two.

But now, all the mysteries between the two have been solved, and their identities have become clear.He couldn't understand why Pei Xiang not only rejected him, but also planned to cut off all future opportunities and possibilities.

"Zhaoxi, please don't tell me that after you regain your memory, you still miss the human being from before."

"You think I'm that kind of person?" Pei Xiang raised an eyebrow.

"Of course you're not that kind of person. You're the smartest fox, I know. But I can't think of any reason why you should refuse me, except for this absurd reason."

Pei Xiang sighed: "Bai Jin, since I woke up, I sensed something."

"what's up?"

"Although I re-condensed the demon core and grew two tails, my future cultivation will be like this. At most... I can only grow a third tail. After that, there is no possibility of growth in my cultivation. .”

With a "click", Bai Jin accidentally knocked over the teacup in his hand.

"how is this possible?"

"I won't joke about this kind of thing. Bai Jin, my lifespan can be extended by at most 100 years. After that, I should leave before Four Tails give birth and bring down Thunder Tribulation."

"In the inheritance of the fox clan, there has never been such a precedent record!"

Pei Xiang forced a smile: "A total of only three ancestors who have performed this inheritance secret technique have successfully recovered their memory. However, before the Shattered Pill, they were all big monsters with four tails or more, and I was the first A successful two-tailed demon."

Bai Jin took a deep breath, he knew that Pei Xiang would not lie to him about such a thing.

"...There will definitely be a way... It will definitely solve this shackle! Xiaoxiang, Xiaoxiang, it is impossible, let's sign a contract of symbiosis, and I will share my life with you. In this way, I will definitely live for a long time of."

Pei Xiang shook his head. If it were other fox demons, there might still be a slim chance of life, but for her, it would be useless.

She was originally the soul of another world, and she came here after the little red fox's soul completely dissipated. Therefore, strictly speaking, the secret method of inheritance performed by the little red fox did not succeed, and finally failed.

The original owner of this body died before her memory was restored, and like many of her predecessors of the same race, she failed to break through.

And Pei Xiang's arrival is actually cheating, it is the greatest luck to be able to condense the pill again, and other things can't be extravagant.

"Bai Jin, you should know what kind of personality I am. If there is a glimmer of hope, I will never give up. I know in my heart that even if I try my best to grow a fourth tail, I will be wiped out in the thunderstorm." of."

Bai Jin closed his eyes. After a long time, he opened them again, staring deeply at Pei Xiang:

"Xiaoxiang, is it because of your life expectancy that you refuse to be with me? You think you can only live for more than a hundred years, and I have a long life, so you don't plan to start this relationship at all, do you? "

Pei Xiang nodded slightly, with reluctance in her eyes, but also very clear, her determination to give up was very firm.

"Then do you know?" Bai Jin's voice was hoarse: "Before you recovered your memory, I had already made up my mind. Even if you have always been a mortal, even if it is only a few decades or even shorter, I will be with you." You're together. I've been prepared for this for a long time."

There was a crack in the determination in Pei Xiang's eyes, she opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say, she looked dazed and surprised.

Bai Jin poured another cup of tea: "Look, you now have decades or even 100 years extra. Isn't this my luck? How can you reject me for this reason?"

"I, I didn't expect... I thought... Thank you, Bai Jin."

"Don't say thank you, don't say sorry, just promise me."

Pei Xiang bit his lips hesitantly: "Then let's, um, try it together, just be together simply, don't promise anything, more than a hundred years is really too short for you."

Bai Jin shook his head, deeply buried the pity in his heart, and showed a cheerful and brisk smile on his face:

"As I said, I am a serious fox. If I want to get along with you, I should be serious. Xiaoxiang, if you agree to be with me, I will immediately send a message to the clan and ask them to prepare for marriage." No matter how grand the young master marries a wife, it cannot be overstated."

Although the atmosphere between the two was still somewhat sad and dignified, Bai Jin's "serious fox" still made Pei Xiang smile.

Seeing her smile, Bai Jin went on to persuade:

"Besides, Xiao Xiang, you really don't have to worry about me. We are all cultivators. Apart from emotional matters, there are still many things to do in life. Time is never enough.

"In the future... even if I'm the only one left, I can still devote all my energy to cultivation, strive to grow nine tails as soon as possible, and truly ascend to the upper realm. Maybe there will be more beautiful and smarter vixen in the upper realm You are waiting for me, Xiaoxiang, I am sure I can make proper arrangements for my future life."

Pei Xiang deliberately puffed his cheeks: "There must be no one who is smarter or more beautiful than me. Even if there is, he may not be able to fall in love with you."

"So, you still have to promise me. If we are together, I will have 100 years of lucky time. It is with the smartest and most beautiful vixen. I earned it. If you refuse me, I will probably I have always been alone, and I have never had the experience of living with the most beautiful and smartest vixen. In the future, my memories will be all about practicing, practicing, and practicing. Wouldn't that be very boring and a disadvantage."

Bai Jin's words hit Pei Xiang's heart. She tilted her head and thought for a while, and when she was about to speak, she felt a black shadow shroud her eyes, and then, there was a soft touch on her lips...

It took an hour and a half for this lunch.

After the shop assistant refilled their private room with tea five times, the two finally checked out and left.

When they came, they walked side by side, and when they went back, they held hands.

"Hey, Xiao Xiang, you haven't said before, how are you going to deal with Jing Huan?"

"I plan to go to the capital and start with the royal family."

Bai Jin slightly increased the strength of interlocking fingers:

"There are various taboos between practitioners and the royal family. If you don't want to ruin your future, you should be cautious."

"I know, Master and his old man told me in the first month of entry," Pei Xiang smiled and glanced at Bai Jin, "Didn't you instigate it? At that time, you found that today's guards have been guarding Laoshan At the foot of the mountain, I was afraid that I would be moved, so I asked Master to tell me many terrible examples."

"Then you..."

"I'll be careful not to cross the line completely. Besides, I won't be able to survive the thunder disaster in the future, so I'm not particularly worried about the subsequent troubles. Bai Jin, sometimes the disadvantages can be used well, and they can also bring benefits."

Bai Jin said in a low voice, "I hope you don't have any disadvantages."

Pei Xiang shook his hand, and the two of them skipped the heavy topic.

"Xiaoxiang, I know you always have your own ideas, and I won't interfere with your revenge, but don't exclude me, as a young gentleman, I can do a lot of things. If you don't know what happened to you, that's all. But now, I already know how Jing Huan plotted against you, and I won't stand by and watch, public or private."

Pei Xiang smiled sweetly: "I know, when I need you, I won't be polite. However, how can you kill a chicken with a butcher's knife? Do you want to be alert? I will do it myself, and I will be happy in my heart."

"What are you going to do first?"

"Let's go and see how the little red fox's son is doing. After all these years, the little red fox is still as beautiful as a flower. That son has probably become old and ugly. Hey, he was not very handsome in the first place."

"See what he does?"

"You have to figure out what happened to the half of the inner alchemy back then. You know, with his father's status as high and powerful, Jing Huan would not dare to replace the inner alchemy or poison him to death, so the inner alchemy There must be something hidden about Dan."

Bai Jin had investigated the past of the little red fox before, and he even found out Jing Huan's contribution to it, and naturally he also found out the name and family background of the young master.

After holding back, Bai Jin still couldn't hold back, showing an indescribable expression:

"Your vision at the beginning...why was it so bad? You actually fell in love with a man like Jia Zheng, not to mention his personality, but his face...hey!"
