The two walked back with their own concerns, and ran into Feng Lingxuan on the way.

"Hey, it's here with you." A white fox cub was hanging on Feng Lingxuan's body, and it was the one that reacted slowly before.

It slowly climbed up from Feng Lingxuan's waist, glanced at the red fox in Feng Wuzhou's arms, stopped, raised its head and called out to Feng Lingxuan.

Feng Lingxuan touched its head, and said to the two: "I was looking for it, where did you find it?"

"Houshan Lingquan." Ji Xingmian said, he glanced at Feng Wuzhou as he spoke, and the latter hesitated for a moment under the signal of his eyes before handing over the fox cub.

That fox cub suffered from low pressure all the way before, and when he switched to Feng Lingxuan at first, tears filled his eyes, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously, he slid into Feng Lingxuan's arms with a "woo" huddled together.

Feng Wuzhou's eyes followed them back and forth, feeling a little regretful.

Just so reluctant, Ji Xingmian pursed his lips, and after struggling for a moment, he asked Feng Lingxuan, "Can I take it away?"

"Huh?" Feng Lingxuan was smoothing the fur of the two little ones. Hearing this, his hands paused, and he looked over in surprise, "Do you want to raise them?"

Ji Xingmian: "Inconvenient?"

"Not really." Feng Lingxuan said, "It's just that I don't recommend you take it away."

If you can, you can, if you can't, you can't. What do you mean by not suggesting? When Ji Xingmian was about to ask, Feng Lingxuan said first: "You see, the two of them are obviously a litter. It's okay if you keep one, and take both away Can it be raised? And..."

Didn't you see that the dragon cub next to you is about to spit fire in his eyes? If you really let these two little ones pass by, they will probably go bald within three days.

Feng Lingxuan's words lingered around his mouth and did not come out, and changed his words: "And they are not suitable for leaving here."

He didn't speak very clearly, but Ji Xingmian understood what he meant, thinking of the fact that the valley is full of cubs but none of them are adults, the reason can be imagined.I'm afraid that all the cubs in this valley are abandoned because of their congenital deficiencies like these two foxes.

He can understand that ordinary animals compete with each other, but why do the Yaozu claim to be God-given spirits alongside the Gods, and why would they do such a thing?

Ji Xingmian suddenly felt flustered, and thought of Feng Wuzhou emotionally, and realized that if it wasn't for Wen Qiong, he might not have seen Wuzhou either.This discovery frightened him for a while, and when he turned around to see Feng Wuzhou standing there properly, his mood slowly settled down.

Feng Wuzhou roughly guessed what he was thinking from his eyes, and took the initiative to reach out and hold him.

To Feng Lingxuan, this scene was blinding. He would have tried to destroy it before, but for some reason, he was a little bit dispirited, so he just grabbed the fur of the fox in his arms twice, and silently moved away. line of sight.

He waited for a while, and seeing that the two people still didn't let go, he couldn't bear it anymore and said: "What do you say next, do you want to go back?"

"Leave it for now." Ji Xingmian said.

This is the result of considering that the curse seal on Feng Wuzhou's body has not yet stabilized, and Ji Xingmian wants to wait for another attack time to verify whether it is useful before deciding on the next thing.

Feng Lingxuan didn't say anything about it, took them to arrange a place to live, and asked casually: "By the way, how is your investigation on the Yuxi worm before?"

Ji Xingmian said: "Not too good, the clue is broken."

In the past half a month, Qin Li had negotiated several times with various forces in private, but they either didn't know what to ask, or tried to shirk their responsibilities and play sloppy eyes.It's hard to see who was involved, who was really innocent, and who was pushed out.

Ji Xingmian also tried to use the tracking technique like he did in the underground palace before, but what he saw was a dark scene with no distinctive buildings, and he couldn't identify the specific direction.

"I have discovered something here." Feng Lingxuan said after listening, "Do you know Raksha City?"

Ji Xingmian: "Raksha City?"

"Forget that you people don't call it that way anymore." Feng Lingxuan murmured, "I think about what you say, Santuchuan? You always know the place outside the boundary, right?"

I have heard of these two place names, Ji Xingmian, they actually refer to the same place, but they are called differently.

Looking north, Xiyue, Dongzhou, the middle point where the three races meet, there is actually a small chaotic area, which is habitually called the land outside the boundary.

Humans and demons coexist in the realm of comprehension. Although human cultivators also have a branch of cultivating demons in Xiyue Kingdom, they are not demons in the true sense.Even in ancient times, gods and demons were legendary things, and it was difficult to determine whether they existed or not.

Human monsters cultivate immortality, and when they succeed in cultivation, they will ascend to heaven on the spot.If they fail to cultivate, they will disappear into ashes and fall into reincarnation. When they enter reincarnation, the road they take is Santuchuan, which is also outside the boundary.

But there are always some people who want to go against the sky, and they are unwilling to enter reincarnation, so they find another way to practice ghosts with their souls, and stay outside Santuchuan forcibly.Although doing so can stay in the world, it also has another layer of hidden dangers.

The body of the soul is not comparable to the body of the soul. If a person who cultivates the way of ghosts dies, his soul will be scattered, and there will be no possibility of reincarnation.

The way of heaven has always been fair, it will give you what you want, as long as you can bear the consequences.

The Raksha City that Feng Lingxuan mentioned was one of the gathering places set up outside the Santu River by those who practiced the way of ghosts.

"This was deduced by the high priest a few days ago. He said that some of the demons who participated in the Yuxi worm incident back then might not have reincarnated, but switched to the ghost way."

Feng Lingxuan said: "But it's not clear whether he leaked it or someone else learned from him after searching for souls."

Just at this time, the three of them had already walked near the residence, Feng Lingxuan stopped outside the courtyard, "How about it, are you going?"

Ji Xingmian asked, "Is this you asking me, or the high priest asking me?"

"Well, the high priest asked. Actually, I don't understand why he asked me to tell you this, and asked me to find a way to drag you along."

Feng Lingxuan said and glanced at the two of them, "If it's up to me to decide, I definitely don't want any human beings to meddle in our affairs."

After all, it is related to the reputation of the Yaozu. If this kind of thing spreads casually, it will immediately make the Yaozu the target of public criticism.Although Dongzhou's strength is not weak, but the ants kill elephants more, and no one wants to make too many enemies.

Ji Xingmian could understand, but he also noticed a detail, Feng Lingxuan said "you", that means the high priest included Feng Wuzhou?

Is it because he will definitely bring Wuzhang with him?Or did the high priest originally want Wu Zhou to go with him?

If it was the former, the time of the trip to Rakshasa City was uncertain, Ji Xingmian felt that it was really impossible for him to leave Feng Wuzhou in any place, but how did the High Priest know?

And if it was the latter, why did the High Priest have to let Feng Wuzhou go with him?

Ji Xingmian was puzzled in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he only told Feng Lingxuan that he would think about it.

After Feng Lingxuan left, the two pushed open the courtyard door and entered.

There is a bamboo forest outside the courtyard, and the hut is also made of bamboo, with a faint fragrance.

While walking, Ji Xingmian was thinking about the matter of the high priest, but he didn't notice that Feng Wuzhou was looking at him more and more bitterly. After entering the room, he simply grabbed him and threw him on the door panel.

"Brother." Feng Wuzhou called him very close, his breath swept over his neck because of his height, itching slightly.

"What's wrong?" Ji Xingmian tilted his head unnaturally, trying to escape, but was held down instead.

Feng Wuzhou took his hand, lowered his head and wrote strokes on it, "Do you like hairy ones?"

"Hairy ones?" Ji Xingmian was stunned for a moment, then realized that Feng Wuzhou was referring to the two fox cubs from before, wondering if he didn't give up and wanted to come and raise them?

But why ask him if he likes it?Is it because he is afraid that he will not agree?

The more Ji Xingmian thought about it, the more he deviated, the longer he was in a trance, Feng Wuzhou became more and more anxious, and finally he lowered his head and bit his fingertip.

This time, without any strength, Ji Xingmian's fingertips had a circle of obvious tooth marks, and the reddish ones formed a circle.Seeing Ji Xingmian's surprised gaze, Feng Wuzhou felt guilty for a while, black mist floated around his body, and he simply changed back to his original form.

The slender little black dragon reappeared, wrapped around his hand in a circle, its ruby ​​eyes were misty, and it kept rubbing against his fingers with its tail. It's written on my face.

Ji Xingmian had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly realized that Feng Wuzhou's previous attitude might not be liking the red fox cub, but the cub's desire to be exclusive, and he didn't want him to hug other cubs, so he rushed to hug the fox first.

"I don't like long hair." Ji Xingmian hesitated briefly, and asked tentatively, "What about you? Do you like it?"

The little black dragon almost jumped up, and quickly wrote on his palm with his tail, "I don't like it!"

The second word "no" is oversized by it, and the emotion is very strong.Ji Xingmian successfully verified his conjecture, feeling fresh after the rain, the corners of his lips unconsciously pulled out a little, "Then don't raise it."

Ji Xingmian seldom laughed. In his previous life, when he was young, he left the imperial capital to practice with the national teacher. His words and deeds were deeply influenced by the other party.

In Feng Wuzhou's memory, the first time he saw Ji Xingmian smiling was in the second year after his transformation.In his previous life, he had a stubborn personality and was not talkative. In order to take good care of him, Ji Xingmian often had to guess what he was thinking, but occasionally he would make a wrong guess and cause trouble.

One time when he was going down the mountain and passed by the town, Ji Xingmian went to deal with some matters, Feng Wuzhou was waiting for him outside, and happened to see a family of three passing by.

The boy was holding a candied haws in his hand, and his mouth was sticky from eating it. When he fell to the ground, his face was covered with dirt, and the candied haws rolled all over the floor, so he couldn't eat any more.He was stunned for a while and then cried out loudly, it was deafening, like the sound of the sky.

The father was amused by his son's cat face, and the mother was also amused, covering her mouth and squatting down to wipe her son's face.The boy cried for a while, and finally had the tendency to stop. His father picked up the candied haws that had been rolled on the ground and handed them to him.

This was like stabbing a hornet's nest, the boy was crying out of breath, the mother was so angry that she punched her husband and ordered him to buy a new one before giving up.

This kind of life was nothing special, but Feng Wuzhou kept watching it for some reason. When Ji Xingmian came out, he only saw him staring at the candied haws in the boy's hand, thinking he liked it, so he bought one for him.

Feng Wuzhou took it with a sullen face, after a while he remembered that he didn't seem to say thank you, he hesitated for a moment before going to hold Ji Xingmian's hand, and whispered a thank you photo.

Ji Xingmian seemed very happy, stroking his head, the corners of his lips curved slightly.

Maybe it was because the sunset was so beautiful that day, or maybe it was because Ji Xingmian had a hard time smiling at people, Feng Wuzhou inexplicably recorded this scene.When he realized that his thinking was wrong many years later, he couldn't change it.

As for the candied haws, Feng Wuzhou only remembered that it was very sour, even with the outer layer of rock sugar wrapped, it was still so sour that his teeth fell down.Considering that it was delivered by Ji Xingmian, she insisted on finishing the meal.

In the end, it left an impression on Ji Xingmian that he liked very much, and later, he would buy one for him every time we went down the mountain together.Ji Xingmian bought it for many years, and Feng Wuzhou endured the pain for many years.

At that time, he couldn't figure out why children in the ordinary world would like this kind of thing. It wasn't until a long time later, when he knew a lot of things, that Feng Wuzhou finally figured out that there are some things that some people are used to and others are not. Don't force it, stop the loss in time.

But if someone can remember your preferences for a long time, then you must not miss him.

Feng Wuzhou thought of the past, his body rolled naturally in Ji Xingmian's palm, quickly changed back to human form and hugged him again, buried his head in his neck and rubbed for a while.

Ji Xingmian coaxed him for a while, then pulled him away and asked, "You met the high priest earlier, what did he tell you?"

"Didn't say anything." Feng Wuzhou wrote in the palm of his hand, "He felt my pulse and looked at it, and said he couldn't solve it, and then told me about the Lingquan in the back mountain."

Feng Wuzhou did not lie, although he could feel that the high priest seemed to have guessed his identity, but as long as the other party didn't expose him, he didn't bother to say anything.

As for why Ji Xingmian was worried about why the high priest wanted him to go with him, Feng Wuzhou also had some guesses.

The level of Yaozu in recent generations is uneven. The only one who can do it is Feng Lingxuan, who is of mixed blood. He is not naturally dominant in the clan, and is disturbed by the "inheritance" curse.

The high priest probably deduced something, and wanted Feng Lingxuan to follow them as much as possible, hoping to purify the blood in the future, or get rid of the curse.

Feng Wuzhou has always been a disbelief in fate, he feels that the deduced future can only be regarded as a reference, the more deliberate and careful he is, the more likely he will lose everything with just one step.

The next day, Ji Xingmian was able to meet the high priest.

The old man was no different from what he remembered from his previous life. He smiled kindly at him and pushed the tea in front of him. .”

Ji Xingmian sat down opposite him, took the tea bowl with both hands, "It's the honor of this junior."

"When that child Ling Xuan came to me yesterday, he said that he had told you about the Raksha City, and he said that you should think about it." The high priest said, "Can you tell me the result of your thinking?"

Before coming here, Ji Xingmian thought about how the high priest would bring up this matter, but he didn't expect him to be so straightforward. He paused for a moment before replying: "I will go." He asked, "Did senior see something?"

The high priest paused for a long time before opening his mouth this time, his eyes suddenly changed, his voice was very soft, with an inorganic coldness, as if someone had spoken these words through his mouth.

"The star track is established, and everything has its place."

After saying this, the high priest closed his eyes, and opened them again after a long time.He looked older than before, and shook his head with a smile, "Oh, I'm getting older."

Ji Xingmian realized that his previous words might have violated some taboo, and apologized, "Sorry, senior, I..."

"Hey, it's okay." The high priest patted him on the shoulder and pulled him up together, "Don't worry, kid, everything is going in a good direction."

*

In the next few days, Ji Xingmian stayed in the valley for a few more days, and after confirming that the curse seal on Feng Wuzhou's body was effectively controlled, he set off with Feng Lingxuan.In the middle, he even found time to write a letter to Qin Li, explaining roughly where he was going next.

The tone of Qin Li's reply implied concern, but he didn't stop him too much. He just sent him a copy of his handprint with the letter, so that if he needed help, he could go to General Gu who looked north to the border city.

With this handprint, the three of them discussed it and finally decided to leave through the border of the human race.

The border towns in the Outer Boundary and the border towns in the north are completely different scenery. The north is colder, but here it is slightly hot and humid, and the folk customs are more sturdy.The city defenders not only consisted of men, but also a dedicated team of women, who looked heroic in armor.

Another point is different from the northern border. There are few cultivators in the border towns of the northern border, but there are many here. Many captains with higher positions are themselves cultivators.According to them, coming here is all about experience.

The three of them entered the city this time to inquire about news. Raksha City is not far from here. As the city defenders, it is likely that they have dealt with them and know some things in the city.Originally, Ji Xingmian planned to ask General Gu privately if there was no news in the city, but unexpectedly, the other party came to him first.

What was even more unexpected was that this well-known General Gu turned out to be a heroine.

Ji Xingmian was very surprised by her visit. He deliberately disguised himself before entering the city. His face was not similar to Qin Li's, and he did not reveal his identity in the city. Why did General Gu come to him suddenly.

After much deliberation, Ji Xingmian could only guess that it was probably because of the Raksha City incident.

And he did not guess wrong, after General Gu entered the door, he went straight to the point and said, "My lord, Gu Qiang, may I ask the three fellow Taoists, but are you going to Rakshasa City?"

"Yes." Ji Xingmian admitted, "I don't know why the general came here?"

"To be honest." Gu Qiang said: "I have a niece who had some conflicts with me a few days ago. After a few quarrels, she left the city in a fit of anger. After several investigations, I found out that she might have entered the city. Rakshasa City."

Feng Lingxuan who was on the side interjected after hearing the words: "Since the general knows where she is, why not just send someone to look for her?"

"Don't hide it from fellow Taoist." Gu Qiang sighed, "The Rakshasa City is not a good place to go. Ever since the owner of the city was changed decades ago, she has only been able to get in and out. And my niece's going out of the city this time is a violation of military discipline. According to the law, how can I force other innocent soldiers to fight in order to save her life? If I go out of the city to look for it for personal reasons, how can I be worthy of the people of this city. But if I don’t care about her, how can I be worthy of entrusting her to My brother and sister-in-law."

Ji Xingmian understood, "The general wants us to help find her when we enter Rakshasa City?"

Gu Qiang nodded, with a sincere expression and a sincere attitude, "I know that the three of you are inquiring about Rakshasa City. If the three fellow daoists can agree, I can provide you with all the news about Rakshasa City that I know. pay accordingly."

"There is no need for a reward." Ji Xingmian said: "General, just tell us the general situation in Rakshasa City and the information about your niece."

Gu Qiang agreed, saying that she would send someone to bring over the information about Raksha City when she went back.

After she left, Feng Lingxuan said: "I thought you wouldn't promise her."

Ji Xingmian was helping Feng Wuzhou peel the pine nuts, and said without raising his head, "Why didn't you agree?"

Feng Lingxuan said: "You don't look like someone who can meddle in other people's business."

"Then you probably need to wash your eyes." Ji Xingmian finished speaking calmly, and pushed a plate of pine nuts peeled in front of Feng Wuzhou, "She has been stationed in the border city for many years, so she only knows a lot about Raksha City. There will be less. Anyway, we are going to investigate the news, and we are just helping to find someone by the way, and it will not take much trouble."

In fact, Ji Xingmian didn't say half a word. Personally, he admired General Gu's personality, and he also thought of his past self from the other party's situation, so he wanted to help.

"Oh, that's fine." Feng Lingxuan spread out his fan and shook it twice, then said boringly: "Since the matter is settled, I'll go out for a stroll and come back at night."

If he stayed in this room any longer, he might be blinded by these two people.

As soon as Feng Lingxuan left, only Ji Xingmian was left in the room. Feng Wuzhou didn't want to go out, so Ji Xingmian stayed in the room with him.

In the evening, Gu Qiang sent people to deliver the things. Even though Ji Xingmian said that he would not be paid, she still sent some belongings.

Ji Xingmian confiscated those, and took them back no matter what they brought, and only picked up the jade slip with the style of Raksha City written on it.It happened that Feng Lingxuan came back from outside, so Ji Xingmian simply released the content on the jade slip, and the three of them read it together.

And just after reading the first sentence, the three of them frowned in unison.

In Raksha City, women are respected and men are servants. If a man walks on the street alone, it can be regarded as a commodity.

In other words, since the three of them are men, they cannot go to the streets alone, they must be accompanied by a woman.

Feng Lingxuan let out a "heh", and said sharply: "This means, we have to have someone pretend to be a woman?"

So the question is, who wears this women's dress?
