I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

"You said we're going out now and telling him that we're here for a visit, will he believe it?" Ji Zihe said with a bitter face.

"You can try it later."

Ji Zihe hesitated, "Forget it then."

Nobody believes this kind of nonsense.

"Don't be so unconfident, maybe he will believe it." Gu Gu said, took Ji Zihe's hand, and took him out of the forest.

"It's my fault that you two waited in the forest for so long, and I took the time to greet you." Nine-colored Deer didn't come up to pursue responsibility, but said politely.

"It's nothing, you're too polite." Ji Zihe said with a smile, we don't want to be greeted by you at all.

"I don't know why you two came to my Tangchuan Oasis. Could it be that they are also here to deliver fertilizer?"

"No, no, no, let's just take a look. We don't want the Resurrection Grass, and we don't want to fight with you Shalu people. Let's go now, haha."

"Wait, the two of you left like this, wouldn't it make outsiders laugh at us for not being well received by Tang Chuan?" Nine Color Deer was obviously not that easy to fool.

"Stop beating around the bush, tell me, how can you let us go?" Bone said bluntly.

Ji Zihe pulled the corner of his clothes calmly, brother, don't be impulsive, don't speak so bluntly.Annoyed this deer, we are going to make flower fertilizer.

Bones glanced at him, closed his mouth, and took a step back.

"You have traveled thousands of miles and finally came to the desert. You didn't do anything, and now you plan to leave. Don't you feel regretful?"

"Being able to meet the legendary Nine-Colored Deer, I have already fulfilled my childhood wish. How can I have any regrets?"

"What a good boy, didn't you say you came to Tangchuan to play. Let's go, I'll take you to the oasis." Nine-colored Deer said suddenly.

Ji Zihe was a little confused, what was going on with the Nine-Colored Deer, why did he suddenly want to be their guide and take them to the oasis?Could it be that he wanted to lure them into the Shalu base camp, and turn them into flower fertilizer while they let down their guard?

If this is the case, why bother? Do you have to consider the mood of Huafei when making Huafei?Anyway, Gu Gu said, he can't beat the Nine-colored Deer, if the Nine-colored Deer really wants their lives, there is no need to do anything extra.Ji Zihe thought about it, but he couldn't think of what kind of medicine was sold in the nine-color deer gourd.

Before Ji Zihe could react, the Shalu tribe jumped out to object.

"My lord, Tangchuan Oasis is the place where my family lives and breeds. How can outsiders be allowed to enter at will." An elderly doe came over and said.

"I have my own considerations for these."

"Wang, please think twice. In recent years, fewer and fewer cubs have been born in our clan. In the past ten years, only seven cubs have been born. For the safety of these cubs, outsiders must not be allowed to enter the clan land. said another doe.

Hearing this, the deer group began to persuade them with a lot of tongues.It is said that three women play a show, and the number of does in the deer herd is more than three, chattering, almost becoming a vegetable market.Thanks to Jiu Selu's good temper, his expression didn't change after being persuaded like this. Of course, even if he changed, Ji Zihe wouldn't be able to see that shaggy face.

"Do you want the Shalu to be exterminated?" The Nine-colored Deer's voice was not loud, but it made the whole deer group quiet down instantly.

"Wang, what do you mean?" the older doe who stood up first asked cautiously.

"It's nothing, I just want to tell you that there is no place in the world that this child can't go to." Nine-colored Lu looked at Ji Zihe with loving eyes, and the deer group also looked at the human race that Nine-colored Lu looked at differently .

What is the background of this person, and why can he win the favor of the king?The deer group looked at Ji Zihe from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, wishing to chop him up, cut him into small pieces for research, and see how he was different from others.

Suddenly being looked at by so many pairs of eyes made Ji Zihe feel a little awkward.This doesn't look like a herbivore, it's clearly like a group of hungry wolves eating meat looking at fat rabbits.

"Well, if it's difficult, we don't have to visit." Ji Zihe said cowardly.

People, you just need to be aware of the current affairs, and bow your head when you should bow your head. What is face, and it can't be eaten.As long as it's not something illegal, it's okay to show weakness.Don't tell him about the integrity of a gentleman, he has a grandfather who is over fifty years old to take care of, and he has to find a way to survive.

"Naturally, there is no embarrassment. Tangchuan Oasis was born because of me, and the Shalu tribe was born because of me. Everything here is mine, so there is no embarrassment." Jiu Selu smiled.

As soon as he said this, the deer in the deer herd changed their faces and lowered their heads, not daring to say a word of objection.They knew that the king was a little angry. This was to remind them who the master of this oasis was.

Nine-color Deer King's long-term connivance has already made them forget their fear, and even dare to boldly question the king's decision.This oasis depends entirely on the Nine-Colored Deer King.Even the Shalu tribe living in this oasis was just a group of ordinary deer. If it weren't for the enlightenment of the Nine-colored Deer, there would be no Shalu tribe.

"Then I'll trouble you, we don't need to go to the land of the Shalu tribe, just look around." Ji Zihe said.

Jiu Selu insisted that they had no room to speak, even if they said they didn't want to go, it was useless.Since he couldn't refuse, he simply didn't refuse. He felt that Jiu Selu must have his purpose.However, looking at the appearance of the Shalu tribe, if he really went to see their cubs, even if he didn't dare to show it on the surface, he would definitely be a villain behind his back.Ji Zihe didn't want to be a villain, so he simply proposed not to go to the land of the Shalu tribe. As for whether Jiu Selu would listen or not, it was none of his business.

"Okay then, please follow me." Nine Colored Deer said, turned around and left with four legs.

The herd breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed to make way for him.Ji Zihe pulled the bone and followed the Nine-colored Deer, and he could see a little gratitude from the eyes of the deer on both sides.He twitched the corners of his mouth, buried his head and hurried forward. This herd of deer was really strange. They seemed to be eating him just now, but now they changed their faces immediately.Thinking about it carefully, he is obviously the culprit, and he is really worthy of it.

After the nine-color deer and the others disappeared, the deer group looked at each other and started discussing again.

"Elder, do you really want to watch these two strangers enter the oasis?" asked a young doe.

"This is the king's decision." The older doe had a stern face, angry and angry.

"But why does the king want to do this, obviously we are..."

"What is it?" asked the older doe.

"That's right, that's right..." The young doe held back for a long time, but didn't say anything.

"Don't rely on the king's tolerance. He is the king of our clan, and what are we to him? Go back and think about it."

"Yes." The young doe blushed, stepped back a few steps, and got behind the other deer, unwilling to come out again.

"I didn't tell her this to a deer. The stable life of thousands of years was bought by the loyalty of the Shalu clan. Among you, there should be no one who doesn't know the origin of our Shalu clan. It has been passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth. But now, many deer have forgotten the origin, since the king can give us something, he can take it back."

The faces of the group of deer became a little frightened. This group of deer is the youngest and strongest group in the clan. They are responsible for patrolling and defending their homes. They belong to the army of the Shalu clan.But the Shalu tribe is not a country after all, and the hierarchy is not so strict. These deer who are responsible for defending their homeland are the main combat force of the Shalu tribe, so they have more contact with things than ordinary Shalu, and they can think of things deeper.

In terms of what the Nine-colored Deer gave them, apart from the oasis under their feet, there was also the grace of enlightenment.If the Nine-Colored Deer King takes back what he gave them, in addition to the place to live, what is even more frightening is that they will turn back into a group of deer who only know how to act on instinct.Who can resist this? It’s like living with a monkey who has turned into a human for many years, and suddenly let him live as a monkey again. Ask it, is it acceptable?

The older doe looked at the reaction of this group of youngsters with satisfaction. They had indeed gone too far these years. If it wasn't for today's king's suggestion, they would have almost kicked their noses in the face. Wouldn't that be suicide.

"Okay, what are you all doing here, why should you go? If strangers break into other places, if I don't see it, then you can ask."

"Yes."

As expected, Nine Colored Deer did not take Ji Zihe and the others to the residence of the Shalu clan. They traveled to the hinterland of the oasis, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is no desert at all.

"What do you think of this place?" Nine-colored Deer took a leisurely walk.

"Very good." Ji Zihe was so preoccupied that he really couldn't figure out what the nine-colored deer was up to, which only added a lot of troubles.

Nine-colored Deer didn't seem to notice the guest's frowning look, and said to himself, "I think so too."

"I'm curious, how did you find us even though we are carrying the bones of Jinyun Buddha?" Bone asked suddenly.

"It's a coincidence that the golden cloud Buddha's bone is mine. I also have it." As he said that, Nine Colors Deer's figure suddenly elongated and turned into a human shape.

The humanoid nine-colored deer is dressed in a white robe, a white cloak, and long antlers on top of its head.He lifted the big hood to the back of his head, revealing his bald head. Coupled with the light around him, in modern terms, it looks like a light bulb.But there are no light bulbs in this era, so in Ji Zihe's eyes, this person's image is particularly sacred.

Nine-colored deer opened his palm, and in his hand was a skull that was also glowing.The head of the white skull is also smooth, and it is unexpectedly harmonious with the nine-color deer.

"This is also a relic?" Ji Zihe asked in surprise, why some relics are so big, some are like gems, but the bone is like rotten wood, there is really no harm without comparison.

"Yes, but it's not time for you yet." Nine-colored Deer said without a trace, and put away the skull, "Ask me why I found you, it's actually very simple, not because of any relics, but because I just saw it."

"Did you happen to be nearby at that time?" Ji Zihe asked, what kind of luck is this!

"This oasis under your feet is an incarnation of me."

"Aren't you a deer, why did you become an oasis again?"

"If you say that I am a nine-color deer, I am a nine-color deer; if you say that I am not a nine-color deer, I am not a nine-color deer. The appearance comes from the heart, and it is only from the heart. Why stick to the appearance?"
