I didn't become a human today

Ji Ran and Liang Xingye waited outside the cliff city for three days before they got the tooth of the Buddha.

Not seen for a few days, Buddha Tooth has changed into bright clothes again, still the same as before.

"I've been waiting for you at the foot of the mountain. It's not that I was too busy to panic later, so I asked the blood corpse I raised before to send me some money, and bought a few more properties in Shiyuan. By the way, Wan Ning How is the matter in the pavilion handled? Has Yuchan returned it?"

Liang Xingye nodded, "Wanning Pavilion is a demon cave, it has been completely liberated now, it's just..."

"Just what?" Foya asked.

"It's just that things went too smoothly, but it seemed a bit strange." At this moment, Ji Ran, who had been nestling in Liang Xingye's arms, finally spoke, "The owner of the Wanning Pavilion is actually Fu Bai."

Fo Ya looked surprised, "Is that the sick Fu family?"

Ji Ran carefully looked at his expression, and continued: "It's him. After he died, when Brother Xingye and I buried him, we found a Buddhist bead in his hand."

Foya's expression remained unchanged, "So you suspect that I have something to do with this matter?"

Ji Ran glanced at the string of beads in his hand, and continued, "Fu Bai wore a mask at first, but when we took off his mask, we found that there was a human skin mask under his mask, which is the same as yours." The face is exactly the same, and before he died, he was holding a Buddhist bead in his hand. These things were deliberately done, so we have to suspect that Fu Bai deliberately made us doubt you... Foya, the time we have known each other is not counted. It's short, if you have any difficulties, you can say it publicly."

He jumped down from Liang Xingye's arms, and squatted down in front of Buddha Ya like a puppy.

Foya scratched his bald head and rubbed Ji Ran's ears, "I can have any difficulties, since I was a child, I didn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but there is something I have been hiding from you all the time. Fu Bai and I are old acquaintances. I know more or less about him, when you investigate Wan Ning Pavilion, I know that this matter has something to do with Fu Bai, so I didn't go with you, I have to avoid suspicion."

Foya started to chatter as he spoke, "Fu Bai's illness is similar to Ah He's. I also met him when I was traveling in the clouds in my early years. He is very strong and has a bit of a vicious personality. I have checked his pulse, but he won't survive. Three years, and I don’t know how he survived in the following years, but I guess it must have something to do with Wanning Pavilion.”

Ji Ran looked at Foya's expression, when he said this, his expression was extremely serious.He was usually dressed in sloppy clothes, and it was rare for him to explain seriously, which seemed very convincing.

Over there, Hoshino caught some crabs in the pool, boiled them, peeled off the meat, and took the fox away.

Ji Ran ate a mouthful of crab meat and muttered, "I was a little skeptical of Foya before, but after thinking about it, I can tell what he wants to do with a person like Foya at a glance. He doesn't seem to be able to do that. Kind of bad guy."

He took another mouthful of crab roe, "Although Buddha Ya was very rich when he was young, he never received anyone's attention. If we leave him behind, he will probably go astray."

Liang Xingye stroked the fur of the fox, "Then take him with you, he will do whatever you say."

During this period of time, they worked very hard in lurking in Wanning Pavilion, and planned to rest in place for a day before continuing on the road.In the evening, everyone parked their carriages by the water pool below the cliff city to catch fish and crabs, and Buddha Ya rolled up his trouser legs and jumped back and forth in the water pool to catch shrimps.

After dark, set up a bonfire.

Foya skillfully handled the fresh fish, put them on a string, put them on the sand, and surrounded the bonfire with just the right temperature, "I am definitely an expert when it comes to grilling fish. The water quality in this deep pool is clear, and the fish in it must be Delicious."

Then, he grabbed a handful of sea salt from the cloth bag and sprinkled it on the grilled fish, "No extra seasoning is needed, a handful of sea salt is enough."

After finishing the grilled fish here, he turned around and sliced ​​another piece of fish into small pieces, "This kind of fish is wasted when it's cooked and eaten. It has to be eaten raw." Cut a piece and handed it to Ji Ran's mouth, "Why? Sample?"

"Sweet, the fish meat is delicate, and the taste of this oil is absolutely amazing! Brother Hoshino, come and eat it too." Foya knew how to please Ji Ran, and a certain fox grinned happily after eating it.

Liang Xingye picked up a stone slab in the deep pool, washed it, and put the grilled fresh fish on the slate. Everyone sat around the campfire, staring at the grilled fish on the slate with six eyes.

He used a pair of chopsticks to break down the fish body with a branch, and the hot air rose up, the fish skin was crispy and the fish meat was tender.

After eating and drinking enough, the two of them lay down around the campfire and looked at the stars.

"Passing Shiyuan, and going forward, it's Lingnan." Ji Ran shook his tail, "That's my hometown, but what is this feeling called? It's more timid to be close to the hometown."

Buddha Tooth on the side put a grass in his mouth, "How long has it been since you went back?"

Ji Ran's voice was a little lost, "It's been a long time."

Ever since he ascended to become a Sanxian, he never went back. At first, he just thought that he would go back and have a look after he settled down in the sky, but later, he was stopped outside the Nantian Gate because of his meritorious deeds.

At that time, he thought, then go down to earth and do some good work, and then go back to visit his family.As a result, after what happened later, he couldn't even maintain his human form. Even if he went home now, his family would not recognize him.

He looked at the stars in the sky, and the little stars came into his eyes.

"Have you ever been to Lingnan?"

Both Foya and Hoshino shook their heads.

"Lingnan is very different from the extreme north, and Shiyuan is very different. It is cold in the extreme north, and the stone is full of stones and the soil is barren. But my hometown, Lingnan, has mountains and water. Among the mountains, there are thousands of miles of tea gardens, where people pick tea. To make a living, fireflies fill the sky in summer. Mountain springs converge into rivers in flat areas, and Lingnan people call it Luochuan. People live by water, waterwheels, windmills, scarecrows..."

Speaking of Lingnan, Ji Ran became eloquent, and his words were full of pride.

"This is a rare opportunity. It's my turn to take you to see it together. Oh, by the way, when you arrive in Lingnan, you must try Kudingcha. We Lingnan people also call it Qingshanlushui tea. The tea leaves of Kudingcha It will stretch out when exposed to water, and the emerald green color looks like it has just been picked. It’s just that the taste of this tea is very bitter, like Coptis chinensis, but it makes people always... nostalgic for no reason..."

The more Ji Ran said, the more difficult it was to control his emotions.

His eyes became moist in an instant, "I miss home very much."

With a sob, I was more excited than before.

So, in the posture of lying on his back, he jumped up suddenly, stretched his neck and screamed at the sky...

Foya was stunned as he watched from the side, "Look at you, why are you so excited? Make yourself a horse..."
