Urban Monster Talk

No way back 2

"Brother Ling!"

"Brother Liu! Where are you!"

"Stay... Oh, you child, why are you standing here without saying a word! I asked you to pick up a sniper for such a long time, which made everyone worried. A wolf came quickly from afar and called Brother Liu's name. Before he finished complaining, he saw the snake corpse of Brother Liu's hand and was shocked: "The earth snake! It's so big! Brother Liu, are you hurt? Are you hurt?"

"It's okay." Brother Liu shook his head.

At this moment, he has decided not to tell the unharmed thing. The unharmed and alone and has been injured, which should not bring danger to his family, and he could have killed himself, but he didn't do that. Brother Liu didn't know how to understand his behavior as no hostility, right? Forget it, if you say it, it will affect everyone and may hinder this hunting. It's better to go home and discuss it with your father alone after the hunting is over. As for this snake, let's muddle through the reason why you didn't keep up. Brother Liu didn't wait to lie like this, and the wolf who came back to find him had naturally done so.

"Drink, Brother Liu is amazing. He has cooked such a big one by himself! It's amazing, the tiger father has no dog son!" After making sure that the earth-turning snake was dead and Liu Ge was unharmed, the wolf gave a thumbs up and said.

"Hey..." Brother Liu touched his head and smiled.

The earth-turning snake is different from gophers and ground pythons. It is also a monster rather than an animal. It is a very dangerous thing to deal with him. "Are you afraid of this kind of thing for the first time?" The local wolf helped Brother Liu put the snake into the bag and said.

"I'm afraid, my heart is still beating!" This is true. Brother Liu's palms were still sweaty at this time, and his heart had been beating.

"Oc's right, you little guy, with this snake, it won't come out for nothing today! It's enough for you to brag!" The local wolf was very satisfied with Brother Liu's achievements and kept praising him.

"How can this be counted!" Brother Liu blurted out, but he reacted quickly and immediately continued, "I'm here to hunt gophers. How can I do without gophers!"

"That's right, it's mainly gophers!" The local wolf patted Brother Liu's shoulder hard. "There is already a gopher in front of us. Let's catch up. You are hunting!"

"Hmm!" Hearing that the whereabouts of the prey were found, Brother Liu was refreshed, "Let's go!"

The local wolf and Brother Liu disappeared into the depths of the earth in a blink of an eye. Where they left, the unharmed man appeared from the void again - he did not escape at all just now, but used the invisibility techniques of the earth wolf and the unharmless race should not have hidden himself - he still covered Brother Liu with one hand and left him. The wound looked sadly at the direction of the wolves going...

The vanguards of the werewolves followed the gophers they found. After turning around for more than half an hour, they finally came to their nest. This place was staggered with countless holes, crowded with gophers of different sizes and colors. Roughly, it far exceeded the original estimate of more than 40.

"There are at least sixty or seventy."

"Too much."

"Great Harvest."

"However, our manpower."

The wolves hiding behind a rock layer in the distance couldn't help talking about it.

"Everyone is silenced." The leader's farmer gestured decisively, "The more prey, the better. Don't worry needlessly there. Our whole family went out and couldn't deal with a few mice! You, you, go and inform the team behind. You and Brother Liu will stay here to respond, and the others will come with me. Let's get closer and see clearly.

"Uncle Nong..." Brother Liu pouted and was dissatisfied with being left behind.

"There is a battle with you!" Nong patted him on the head, "I'll let you do it first!"

"Really!" Brother Liu doesn't believe his ears. Does Uncle Nong really want to give this glory to himself?

"I have been with your father for many years. It's not a big deal to give you a chance. You have to show me well later. Don't tell your little brothers to say that I'm biased." Nong has always liked Brother Liu, a child. Since he leads the team this time, he will always give him a chance.

"Yes!" Brother Liu was full of energy, straightened his waist and agreed loudly.

With the information transmitted by the front team, the soldiers of the werewolves slowly surrounded the gophers. Some gophers have noticed the abnormality, stopped their original movements, looked up, and sucked with their noses.

"Cre down!" Jingshi ordered a few teenagers who were ready to move.

"Brother Liu, get ready to do it!" At the same time, Nong gave the opposite order to him. He pointed to a nearby gopher and said, "Go!"

Brother Liu jumped out and rushed to the gopher in front of everyone, and his claws accurately inserted into the gopher's throat. As the first gopher fell, the wolves rushed up one after another, and a fight began here. The wolves perform their own martial arts and spells, but the gophers are also a fierce and fighting animal, so the soldiers are very fierce and both sides are injured.

Brother Liu excitedly rushed left and right on the battlefield, but did not know that he attracted the hateful eyes of several teenagers of the same age - Nong's kindness made Brother Liu stand out and made these teenagers more hate Brother Liu. Even Jingshi's order just given out of concern for their safety was regarded as quiet by them. Shi and his son colluded to suppress everyone and let Brother Liu appear in the limelight.

Brother Liu doesn't know this.

When he participated in such a battle for the first time, his mood was high and he was extremely excited. He picked up a huge gopher and took action. In a short time, there were more than four gophers falling under him.

Lei Feng had long forgotten what the elders told him to take care of the novice. He rushed to Brother Liu to fight. From time to time, the two raised their hands to indicate the number of prey they had captured, and they were very happy.

"Brother Liu, Brother Lei, good job!"

From time to time, elders give them a thumbs-up.

Chen Zhu knew that his martial arts were not strong and had been following several elders and attacked the gophers with magic. He knew that he might not be able to kill a gopher in the whole battle, but his spell helped the elders - which can be seen from the praise of the elders - this is enough for Shen Zhu. Enough, he doesn't have such ambition and doesn't want to be the first XX of the wolf clan. He only hopes that he can help the real strong in the future. He looked at Liu Ge's heroic posture in the battle - he was jumping into the air, scratching the head of a horse-sized gopher with one paws, and dragged out another teenager who was thrown down by the gopher - although Liu Ge was also the first time to participate in such a large-scale hunt, everything he showed was not inferior to his elders. In the future, I will stand behind him and help him with everything I have learned. At that time, the enemies I will face are not a few gophers, but more terrible, powerful, cruel and ruthless, right?

Shen Zhu was immersed in his leisure thoughts and unconsciously distanced himself from the elders in front of him. A dying gopher rolled and fell right in front of him and bit him down.

Shen Zhu was stunned when she saw the big mouth of the blood basin in front of her. He often eats gopher meat, and he wears gopher skin every day, but it was the first time in his life that a living blood basin appeared in front of him. For a moment, he threw all the spells to the bottom of the ground and even forgot to raise his hand to resist.

"Sink pearl!" As soon as Brother Liu carried the injured teenager to the back, he saw him in a daze. He rushed over and pulled him aside, and the gopher bit him empty. Why are you in a daze at this time? Aren't you full?"

"Who is not full!" Shen Zhu gave him a white look.

Brother Liu dodged, dodged the gopher's collision again, and shouted to Chen Zhu, "Then do it quickly!"

Shen Zhu took a deep breath and used his best spell. A flash hit the gopher blocked by Brother Liu's one hand, which had been seriously injured, twitched a few times and fell down.

"Success!" Brother Liu shouted excitedly, patted Shen Zhu's shoulder again, and then jumped into the most fierce place of the battle a few times.

Shen Zhu looked at the gopher at his feet, looked at his hand, shook his head unbelievably, and smiled. In this way, he completed his first hunt with the help of his friends.

Two hours later, the hunting was over, and the wolves walked around on the battlefield to check their prey. This was a harvest. About 57 or eight gophers were put into their bags, and the others fled everywhere. The wolves did not chase them anymore, because the remaining gophers will take shape in the future. A new community provides them with another hunting opportunity.

Among the wolves who participated in the hunting, the most harvest was still Jingshi. In addition to commanding everyone and caring for teenagers, he also killed seven gophers, including the largest of the gophers hunted this time - almost the size of an elephant.

Among the teenagers who participated, Jingshi's son, Brother Liu, was the best. He killed a total of six, only one less than his father. Although the size of his prey could not be compared with his father's, it has overwhelmed all his peers, and even the achievements of most of the elders have faded in front of him. .

Leifeng is second only to Brother Liu. He walked to Brother Liu with the largest gopher he had hunted (about the size of a camel). Both of them were humming excitedly. These two teenagers were the best hunters among the new generation of local wolves.

Only five of the other teenagers killed their prey, the most two, and Shen Zhu is also one of them.

"Great harvest, great harvest... Lala..." Brother Liu carried his prey on his shoulder and walked in the middle of the team while humming, looking proud.

"What a child. He is so happy to hunt." Jingshi shook his head with a smile.

"This child is amazing. You didn't get as good grades as him when you first hunted."

"Yes, you hit a total of three gophers at that time, and excitedly pulled us to drink with you all night."

"That's right, let's laugh at the children now."

"I specially drank with you to comfort you guys who went back empty-handed! Not only did you not appreciate me, but also exposed my shortcomings!"

"Haha, as soon as we talk about how many years have passed and the children have grown up, we are about to get old."

In the conversation and laughter of the elders, the team passed by the rocks on the way. Brother Liu couldn't help walking. The meeting with the unharmed road that should have been forgotten for hunting surged into his heart again. He repeatedly recalled the situation at that time and did not use the sword hanging in his waist from beginning to end, and only used a few A spell, and he was vulnerable under the unharmed man... He stood in the place where the injury disappeared and fell into thought.

"Brother Liu, let's go. Why did you stop!" Lei Feng shouted from afar, "Go back to the celebration banquet!"

"This place..." A wolf remembered and said, "Brother Liu killed an earth-turning snake here on his way there. Is that right, Brother Liu? Show the snake to everyone."

Brother Liu smiled at everyone without squeaking.

"I'll be embarrassed! Hahaha!" The elders laughed together.

"Brother Liu, did you really kill a snake? That kind of thing is more fierce than a gopher, and its teeth are poisonous. You are really powerful. Gaoer walked beside Brother Liu and gained nothing, but he was excited about his friend's record and was even more proud than his victory.

Brother Liu didn't answer, and after a while, he said far away from the topic, "I'm going to school on time tomorrow!"

"What?" The cake was stunned by his words.

"I'm going to school tomorrow and then learn spells seriously! I want to become stronger!" Brother Liu clenched his fist and said, "Go home quickly, eat, take a shower, sleep, and go to school tomorrow!" With that, he ran forward.

"Haven't you been out of school for a long time?" Not only the cake, but also other friends touched their heads puzzledly. They didn't know what was wrong with him. They quickly chased after him, "Brother Liu, wait for me, what on earth are you thinking!"

Didn't you say you would compare with me tomorrow? Don't run!"

"Let's go for a drink, where are you going..."

"I want to be more powerful! I want to be powerful!" Brother Liu waved his hand to his friends and ran away without looking back.

Su Xin looked up and down sternly, and then said for a long time, "Go back!"

"Why?" Brother Liu blinked pitifully. He knew that he had played truant all day, and his husband was already very angry, so he wanted to muddle through with a poor and obedient look.

"This is now an adult school. You are still a child, either go to class with children, or learn to change magic!" Su Xin said coldly.

"I only have one spell that I haven't learned..." Brother Liu muttered discontented.

"How dare you talk back!" Su Xin scolded.

Brother Liu was shocked and spit out his tongue secretly. It seems that my husband is really angry with himself, "I will study hard in the future. Don't be angry, sir."

Originally, when they were adults, they no longer had to study in the school. They were willing to learn more. They were willing to go home to inherit the family business and give up their studies. However, today, their group of students came neatly because of their brother Liu's coming. Some were out of concern for their friends, and some were purely from the heat. Some people wanted to see his joke maliciously, and everyone looked at Su Xin's attitude silently.

"Well, I thought that with a little innate cleverness, everything could go well and learn anything, but I retreated when I encountered a little setback! I don't need such an ambitious student here. Letting you in will ruin others! Go back and learn magic that can't change people. Don't come again!" After saying that, he closed the door heavily on Brother Liu's face.

Su Xin turned around and glanced at the school. The students who were whispering immediately calmed down, but several of them still had unconcealed smiles - they were obviously gloating for the reprimand of their beloved brother Liu.

Su Xin sighed secretly.

These students don't understand their painstaking efforts. I don't know if Brother Liu doesn't understand? Brother Liu is a very talent child and is easy to learn. It's false to say that he doesn't work hard. On the contrary, he is a child who can learn to learn and forget everything, but this has also become his shortcoming - once he is attracted to one thing, he can't be distracted and take care of other things - recently this child is too heavy. He is fascinated by martial arts and throws spells cleanly. I hope that his method of excitement can make him work more hard on spells.

But he is a strong child. If I say that, he will definitely take his heart back to magic. Su Xin thought of this and stroked his beard with a smile.

Brother Liu stood outside the closed school door and raised his head for a long time, with anger flashing in his eyes. Relying on natural cleverness? "A little setback and retreat"? I have heard a lot of similar words, but it doesn't hurt in my ears. He knows how hard he works so hard that he doesn't want to pay attention to these boring words, but now, it's the teacher he respects most who says these words.

"Mr. Suxin..." Brother Liu muttered.

He respected and respected this gentleman since he was a child, obeyed him, and believed that he knew himself and did not attribute his achievements to the word "genius", but now, he actually said such words.

"Even if you want to provoke me, I can't forgive you!" Brother Liu muttered, "I will never treat you as my most respected teacher again." Brother Liu said this in anger outside the school, took a deep breath and turned away.

Brother Liu's appearance is careless, kind and polite, as if he is informal, but in his heart, he is more obsessed with cleanliness than anyone else. His informality is stricter than anyone for everything he loves deeply. The same thing happened to outsiders and his parents, friends, and respected elders. He can laugh at the former, but the latter will find it unbearable.

From this day, Brother Liu has never taken the initiative to ask Su Xin any questions, because although he does not really respect Su Xin, he can no longer regard the other party as a "sir" he trusts wholeheartedly.

"Alas..." Brother Liu threw the book on the ground and lay on his back**, "Human... one nose and two eyes, no tail and no hair, but it's not strange. Why can't I change?" He threw out all the books under his hand and sighed for a long time. Geng Niang came in with tea and stepped on a thick book, "Oh, brother Liu, do you want to trip over your mother again?"

"I'm working hard, don't bother me." Brother Liu said confidently.

"In the past few months, you have been sleeping in all day and looking for excuses not to clean up the house." Geng Niang rudely exposed his lies.

"I didn't sleep in. I just can't learn anything, so I'm a little upset."

"Didn't your father say that don't force yourself to learn what you can't learn, don't be too difficult for yourself, and don't be in a hurry to achieve success."

"I'm eager to achieve..." Brother Liu pouted and said, "I've been practicing for so many years. If it goes on like this, I will never become an adult. Your desire to have a daughter-in-law and grandchildren will not be realized in your life!"

"Would you like a daughter-in-law? Brother Liu, why are you so interested in this matter? Come on, tell your mother, do you like someone's girl?"

"No! That's just saying." Brother Liu looked at his mother sideways, "Why are you so excited?"

Geng Niang didn't listen to his following words at all. She put the tray on his stomach and rushed out of the door and shouted at Jingshi: "Sir, madam, did you hear it? Brother Liu just said that he wanted to marry a daughter-in-law and have grandchildren for us!"

Brother Liu carefully removed the tray - the bowl on it was full of food soup, and it would spill out with a slight movement. I really don't understand how his mother never spilled things like this every day - when he got up and wanted to explain that he didn't mean it at all, he had heard his father shouting excitedly: "Really Question mark Which girl does he like? I'm going to ask someone to propose marriage! Now you have ready Liu Ge'er's Geng paste, and..."

"Hu..." Brother Liu lowered his head with a breath at the door. If he goes out now, he will probably be forced to ask until the morning, and then he will have to make up a so-called "fasir favorite girl", and then his parents will go straight to propose marriage. He will become a poor person. As soon as he learns the magic, he will be with someone A woman got married. In order to avoid the possibility of such a tragedy, he decisively grabbed his coat, stuffed his mother's snacks into his pocket, and ran through the wall before his father drank and walked into his room. Sure enough, I heard my father shouting: "Brother Liu, when are you going to get married... Brother Liu? Where's Brother Liu?"

Brother Liu ran wildly and dared not turn back.

After running for a while, he slowed down and turned his head to think, "Where are you going?" It's so late, of course, it's not good to run to someone else's house, and you can't go home. If you go to your grandfather's house, you will probably be taken back to your parents... Just find a quiet place to practice spells. Brother Liu planned to do this, "How hard I work! It's really touching." He pulled out the magic book from his arms without blushing at all and turned over to the place he was used to.

"Brother Liu, everyone has always regarded him as a treasure! I don't believe he is really that good! Brother, are you all right? This is Zhike's voice.

"It's okay... Grandpa's stick is really heavy." This is Zhijiu's voice.

When Brother Liu heard these conversations, he hid and quietly looked over there.

Sure enough, their brother was there, and there was a large area of blue and purple on Zhijiu's head, and Zhike was applying ointment to help him. From their next conversation, Brother Liu understood what was going on with his injury.

Zhike said, "I just said a few words to that boy, but my grandfather hit you like this!" I have written down all this debt, and one day I will make him look good. Brother Liu sighed in his heart: "I have never offended you. Why do you have to speak ill of me behind my back?"

Zhijiu said, "I dare not resent my grandfather, but that boy!" As he spoke, there was the sound of grinding teeth.

Brother Liu is busy and shrinking back. I don't know if their brother has had dinner. In case he doesn't eat, in case he finds himself again, from the sound of grinding his teeth, he may not be enough for them to eat.

Zheke said again, "Didn't you notice that you don't like him more and more recently? Humph, he also has such a day. The tone was full of excitement.

Zhijiu sneered: "But didn't you see those soldiers hold him to the sky? His father is Jingshi, and one day he will naturally become the first master. Does the magic teacher like to have any impact on him? Like us, no matter how hard we try, he is not nothing!"

The two brothers were silent for a moment, and Brother Liu was even more angry and dared not breathe.

After a long time, I heard Zhike say viciously, "Why doesn't he die!" Why didn't the gopher eat it last time!"

Brother Liu suddenly opened his eyes wide. He knew that the Zhihui brothers hated him, but he was able to understand all this. After all, their father was killed by his father, and they also grew up with a reputation as "traitor's son" since then. Their mother left them to remarry and lived in their grandfather's house. Grandpas and uncles also treated them. It's not surprising that such a life makes their temperament weird. What do they want to hate to live? So your son who killed his father's uncle, who was supposed to be his cousin, became their goal. Brother Liu always thought that they hated themselves because of this, but they actually wanted to kill themselves!

What on earth did you do to make them hate so much?

Do you deserve to die if you are better than them? Or can they tolerate anyone else who is excellent, but not himself?

Brother Liu carefully retreated and left Zhijiu for a while before turning and running.

Why on earth?

Some of my blood relatives have such an idea for themselves, which makes Brother Liu really uncomfortable. Listening to their tone just now, if they are given a chance, they must kill themselves without hesitation.

Brother Liu walked aimlessly, thinking nonsense and messy.

Killing the father is also the revenge of killing the father, because the father is a traitor and can't revenge, but they must have hatred in their hearts. They can't admit that they hate Jingshi, because Jingshi is a hero of righteousness and an uncle who loves them. If they hate him, it is equivalent to standing on their father's side and facing the ground. The wolf clan has two hearts. So why don't you transfer your hatred to me?" Brother Liu muttered to himself, which was the only reason he could come up with.

Brother Liu sighed and decided not to mention this to his parents or others. Just be more careful of them in the future.

"Alas, I'm hiding more and more things from my parents. I know the cause of my uncle's death, I've met unharmed things, and I hate Mr. Susin... This matter is about to become a bad child." Brother Liu shook his head helplessly.

He ran aimlessly underground. Now he came to his senses and found that he had come to a place very high (that is, very close to the ground). He could see the roots of trees tangled underground, some small animals busy in their caves, and some insects. Sleeping in the soil, several seeds are trying to sprout.

Brother Liu put his hand into a rabbit hole, clicked the sleeping rabbit, and then looked at the family of rabbits rushing to the ground in a panic.

"It's fun." He grabbed his head and said, "Let's just go up and have a look." Maybe you can observe human beings, which is also helpful for learning spells. He found himself an excuse to violate the clan rules that children were not allowed to go to the ground alone, and slowly emerged from the ground.

It is night on the ground, the bright moon is in the sky, and the season is early spring. The vegetation is green, and the air is filled with freshness. Not far away, a stream gurgled, shining silver in the moonlight and the stars blowing in it. The breeze is gentle and the waves are blowing. It's a charming night.

Of course, Brother Liu, who came to the ground for the second time, certainly couldn't understand all this. He looked around and looked stupid, distinguishing these things that had only been seen in books and pictures: trees, grass, streams, moon, stars, sky... The surroundings were very quiet, not like the noisy chaos in the human town last time. The moon in the sky is soft and clear, which is much better than the hot sun. Brother Liu's feeling about the ground is much better than last time. He walked around and finally sat down under the tree. Ha, the grass sat softly, much more comfortable than the rocks and land underground. It's not bad to come here to ensure that the people can't find themselves, and Brother Liu thought proudly.

The air is filled with an unfamiliar smell. From time to time, there are bursts of "winds" that are impossible to appear under the earth. Brother Liu keeps calm and is wary of possible dangers in this environment that he does not know at all.

"Mou..."

A huge cry made Brother Liu jump up. He turned around and saw a huge animal standing not far from him. It was an animal with a pair of sharp horns, a strong body and four hooves. A pair of big and round eyes flashed with light, and a long cry came to Brother Liu.

Brother Liu bowed down and posed for attack.

"Mou..."

The animal's cry was loud and scary. Brother Liu was hairy when he heard it and was ready to preempt and take the other party's throat.

" Stop it!" A voice sounded beside him and said in a reproachful tone, "Nowadays, why do you want to bully a cow!"

"Cow?" Brother Liu tried very hard to take his eyes away from the animal in front of him and looked in the direction of the sound, "Do you think it's a cow?! I have eaten beef and seen the cow in the picture. How can the cow be so big? Isn't that an animal like a rabbit?" Brother Liu 100% thought that the owner of that voice was lying to himself.

"Ha ha, it turned out to be the child of a wolf." The owner of the voice saw Brother Liu clearly and laughed. He also walked from behind the tree to the moonlight and let Brother Liu see him clearly. This is a human old man with a clear face, pale hair loosely tied into a bun, pinned with a wooden hairpin, a wisp of white beard, wearing a cyan robe, and is smiling and coming to Brother Liu, "Son, are you on the ground for the first time? Haven't you seen a cow?" With that, he went to the cow and stroked it, and the cow shouted meekly. I don't know whose cow is lost. Go home quickly. The old man nodded obediently and walked slowly out of the woods in the direction he pointed. Brother Liu felt that he had used some kind of spell so that Niu could find his own home.

"Child, don't move!" The old man suddenly said to Brother Liu. He stretched out his hand and pointed to Brother Liu. A red light rushed to him. He touched Brother Liu's shoulder and disappeared in an instant.

Brother Liu opened his mouth in surprise.

Of course, he will not be "obedient" when strangers use spells against him, but the old human man has no room to "move" at all. He has not had time to help him reacted, and the spell has hit him. Brother Liu hurriedly looked up and down at himself and didn't know what the other party had done to him. He found a small insect (insect?) on his shoulder, and the little thing with eight legs had huddled into a ball and died. Brother Liu's shoulder moved slightly, and he rolled into the grass underground.

"Spider?" Brother Liu still recognized this animal and accurately called its name.

"That little thing is different from a cow. It's poisonous," the old man told Brother Liu with a friendly smile. "It's poisonous - it won't be fatal, but it will make the place you bite red, swollen, itchy and painful for several days."

"Oh, I've seen in the book that some spiders are poisonous." Brother Liu lay on the ground and began to look for the spider, "What kind is it called? Is there any way to distinguish it? After he knew that the old man had no malice towards him, his curiosity and thirst for knowledge suppressed everything and were eager to know more things on the ground.

"Ha ha," the old man smiled and patted Brother Liu's shoulder and asked, "Children, would you like to come and have a drink with me?"

"Have a drink?" Brother Liu's brain automatically added the word "wine" after "a drink". It is rare to have a chance to drink wine on the ground, and the elders are invited, how can future students refuse? He immediately found an excuse for himself to drink and nodded with a smile.

The old man originally set up a pot on a flowery lawn, a mountain stone under a lush weeping willows, and was drinking alone in the moon, so he saw the scene of Liu Ge's bullfight. He led Brother Liu over and let him sit on the stone. There is a small brass wind stove next to the stone, burning fragrant wood. Brother Liu looked at the wind stove and wondered why the warm wine didn't taste at all?

The old man looked at the fire and asked Brother Liu, "Child, what's your name?" Is it a child of the werewolf clan? Why do you come to the ground alone?"

"My name is Brother Liu, the son of Jingshi of the wolf clan. I...m just walking, walking, haha."

The old man doesn't seem to know the rules that the children of the wolf clan can't be led to the ground without adults. Of course, he doesn't understand what Brother Liu's embarrassed laughter represents. He just asked, "You rarely come to the ground, do you?"

Brother Liu felt that he was holding back his smile when he asked this sentence - he probably wanted to leave the way he and a cow - so he said a little dejectedly, "This is the second time."

"Come on, you can drink." The old man did not continue to ask this topic. He picked up the small pottery pot, filled a small glass that was not much bigger than his thumb, and stretched out his hand to Brother Liu and made a gesture of invitation.

There is a light, plant-like smell in the air. Brother Liu is not sure whether this smell is from the surrounding trees or this cup of "wine". His nose is not very good at distinguishing the smells on the ground, but if "wine" is this kind of smell, isn't it good to drink? Brother Liu looked at the glass of wine, picked it up and poured it in.

"Wow!" Brother Liu's eyes suddenly stared out, and the mouthful of "wine" was frozen there. He really couldn't swallow such a thing, but in front of the elder, he could not spit out what was in his mouth rudely. He tried to pouted and took a long time to squeeze into his stomach little by little, and finally open his mouth. He He immediately shouted to the old man, "Senior, why did you give me medicine?"

"Drug?" This time it was the old man's turn to stare, "You haven't had tea, have you?"

"Tea?"

"This is the good tea my friend just brought me. Come and try another cup."

Brother Liu shook his head vigorly and said with a bitter face, "It tastes bad."

"Ha ha," the old man no longer forced him to drink by himself.

An old man and a young man, a wolf in the stream under the moon, in the breeze forest, several teas, sitting speechless, a quite picturesque scene.

Brother Liu gradually got used to this kind of empty surroundings, in the air, the situation between heaven and earth, the grass and trees smelled more and more comfortable, and even the wisp of flowers that floated into his nose from time to time were not so strange.

"Let's try another drink?" The old man served tea for him again.

Brother Liu licked his lips, grabbed the tea cup like he made up his mind, looked up, swallowed it like drinking medicine, and then wiped his mouth with his sleeves. "How can humans get used to drinking this kind of thing? I read from the book that human beings drink it every day, right?

"Drinking tea is not tasting tea," the old man added for him. "Humans drink tea every day, and tasting tea depends on the time, place, mood, and the other party."

"Eating is different from taking a bite, isn't it..." Brother Liu understood it this way.

"Hahaha," the old man laughed, "your child is so interesting," he said, tasting the tea in the cup shallowly, "You probably haven't become a student yet, have you?"

"Oh, how do you know?"

"Ha ha, if you can become a human, maybe you won't think so."

"I... I can't learn that spell..." Brother Liu blurted out why. Perhaps because he was in a strange environment, and the old man in front of him was so amiable that Brother Liu couldn't help feeling close, so he suddenly said something that he didn't even tell his parents.

"You can't learn, because you still don't know what human beings are like, right?"

"Of course I know that one nose and two eyes, no tail and no hair..." Brother Liu immediately read out the human formula he wrote.

"Hahahaha, you child..." The old man laughed back and forth. He finally stopped laughing and shook his head and said, "Son, you can't just see one thing from the outside."

"I just need to become a human in appearance, not a human being." Brother Liu curled his lips. He always thought that the creature with a layer of gorgeous and thick fur was the most beautiful.

The old man drank another cup of tea and looked at Brother Liu and asked, "Child, do you know why a monster and a creature must first learn to 'be a person' if it wants to achieve positive results?" He emphasized that it was "doing" rather than "change".

"I don't know," Brother Liu answered honestly, "I don't want to achieve success at all."

"Because human beings are the most complex and elusive creatures in heaven and earth, as long as human beings are grasped, there is nothing that can't be understood, understood or accepted."

"Real? According to this statement, not all human beings can achieve positive results." Brother Liu said unconvincedly.

"Child, do you know everything about the wolf?"

"Of course!" Brother Liu raised his voice.

The old man said nothing and looked at him with a smile. Brother Liu became cramped under his eyes. After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm a wolf, but now I'm still young. When I grow up, I will..."

The old man still didn't speak, and the smile on his face became stronger.

"Well, I remember my husband said, 'It's easier to know others, but difficult to know yourself', so... so..."

The old man nodded: "You seem to understand a little."

"Do you just want to tell me this truth?" Brother Liu spoke more respectfully to the old man.

"You probably haven't seen a human being a few times, but you want to become a human spell. At first, the wolf clan did not learn the rules of adulthood, in order to encourage their descendants to work hard to practice the right result, right? It's just that the intentions of the ancestors have been forgotten now, and they will only force their children to become things that only look like human beings. Humph, the cart before the horse is extremely reversed!"

Although Brother Liu thinks what he said is very reasonable, the old man is criticizing his family, and of course he can't interface.

"Son, tell me, why can't you learn human-changing spells? Isn't it much easier to become a human just by appearance than to become a human?

"Because..." Brother Liu unconsciously was full of trust in this human old man. He lowered his head and slowly learned his previous spells quickly. After learning the magic of changing people, he encountered a difficult problem. In any case, he couldn't learn it. More than ten years later, his friends around him have learned them one by one. He also It's right and wrong. He said that he pretended to be nothing, but in fact, he was very anxious, and he even had an unpleasant quarrel with his husband recently...

The old man listened carefully and nodded from time to time. It was not until Brother Liu finished all that he stroked his beard and asked, "So it is, so you ran to the ground to see what human beings look like with your own eyes. It's really a very smart way."

Brother Liu is ashamed to look away. He can't explain that he slipped out of the house not for magic, but to escape the terrible incident of his parents forcing him to get married.

"Child, can you show me the spells you have learned?" The old man suddenly asked.

"Ah," Brother Liu was stunned for a moment, "Okay, what do you want to see?"

"Show me the 'ground-shaking method' first."

"Good!" Brother Liu immediately stretched out his finger and stroked his hand and recited his proudest spell. Suddenly, the mountain shook, the earth and stones rolled around, the branches of the trees dried up, and the birds that had already returned to their nest were also thrown out of the quilt. A panicked chir sounded around. The old man's robe and sleeves were brushed, and the tea set that was shaken on the ground returned to the table completely. He praised: "It's worthy of being a wolf, it's amazing." Brother Liu himself is also secretly sticking out his tongue. He didn't expect that this spell to be so different from when used on the ground. It's not a spell on the ground (for the race living in the earth, the vibration caused by the earth shaking method is like the spell of wind on the ground. After all, there are not many messengers who can attract 'hurricane'. So it's just an ordinary spell) that can cause such a big mess on the ground.

"Well, you can use another wind spell to see."

"Wind!" Brother Liu shouted without hesitation, and a small whirlwind formed at his fingertips, brushed his shoulders, brushed away a few dust for him, and then disappeared invisible.

Brother Liu opened his eyes wide and looked at his fingertips: "No?" He said unconvincedly, "I'll try again!"

"No, you can show me the Royal Thunder Method again."

"Ry!"

With Brother Liu's shouting, several lightnings fell from the air, splashing a lot of soil and grass debris around him and the old man, and making a few small pits on the ground. "For good, Brother Liu was relieved, "There is nothing wrong with this spell." Brother Liu looked at the old man proudly.

"Hehe, that's good. Would you like to see my spells?"

"Okay, okay!" Brother Liu nodded with anticipation.

"First of all, the curse of the wind!" The old man stretched out a hand and read the same spell as Brother Liu just now. A gust of wind blew, rolled up Brother Liu's body, and took him to circle in the air before putting him back in place.

Brother Liu held his throat and gasped hard, trying to bring back his loss when he had just been pressed by the wind to have difficulty breathing. While looking at the old man, he was full of worship.

"Below is Ray." The old man shouted, "Illness!"

Several huge thunders fell into the dust, and made a huge deafening explosion when they touched the ground. The earth and rocks splashed everywhere and hit their faces with faint pain. Brother Liu quickly covered his face with his arms and only heard the sound of "rare" earth and rocks falling like rain around him stop, and then put his hands down, and even the dust on his body came. Before he could beat him, he shouted excitedly to the old man, "That's awesome! That's awesome! Senior, your spell is simply divine!"

"Ha ha, in fact, as long as you stay on the ground for a long time, these spells will naturally improve."

"Stay on the ground a little longer?"

"I'll show you one more thing. Don't panic." After saying that, the old man stretched out his hand to the sky and said something in his mouth. After a while, the wind in the forest (this is not a strong wind caused by magic, but a wet, natural wind). The clouds in the sky turned over and covered the bright moon and the stars tightly in a blink of an eye. The world where the elephant was originally immersed in green glass suddenly had no light and could not reach out his fingers. Brother Liu's heart is furious - he is not afraid of the dark. The underground is much darker than here day and night, and the eyes of the wolf can still see everything - but in the wind, in the forest, in the forest, in the song of birds and in the roar of beasts, there is a kind of warning that he can't understand what will change. He couldn't help clenching his fist, his hair stood upside down, and there was a low roar in his throat.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning cut through the sky, and then the thunder rolled over the clouds. The thunder sounded, and there was a brief silence between heaven and earth. However, this silence only lasted for a few seconds, and the pouring rain fell down. The old man grabbed Brother Liu, who jumped up and wanted to get into the ground, and said a word to convince him that he would not be drowned: "It's raining."

There was only the sound of heavy rain in his ear. Brother Liu began to try his best to wipe the rain on his face. When he found that it could not dry, he gave up. He watched the rain fall from the clouds, fall on trees, on the grass, on the rocks, on his body, and then roll down, fall on the earth, converge into water on the ground, flow into the stream, and the small flow speed up and rush forward... The rain enveloped the whole world, and looked up to see a vast area of white, flashing electric light from time to time. It illuminates the earth for a while, but it always comes with a shocking thunder.

This kind of spirit of nature sweeping everything. Brother Liu, who has lived underground for a long time, saw it for the first time and his heart trembled.

The old man used the rain to come and go quickly. A quarter of an hour later, the clouds and rain stopped, the moon appeared, and a little drops of water flashed in the grass, and the whole mountain forest became more and more beautiful.

Brother Liu stood there and looked up at the sky, looking depressed.

The old man stretched out his hand and made himself and Brother Liu's watery body suddenly dry. "The first time I saw the rain? Do you see the real thunder?"

Brother Liu nodded.

"I'll assume that when you learn spells, is it the easiest to master the spells of the five elements of earth? Even if it is the most difficult earth spell, do you think it is the simplest wind spell and thunder spell that other wolves can learn at once?

Brother Liu couldn't help asking, "How do you know?"

"Because you can't learn to deceive yourself, you haven't seen real thunder and real wind, so you can't learn according to what your husband taught. If you don't know people, you can't learn magic that can't change people. Even if your friends can become human in appearance, if they walk into the crowd at this time, human beings can still immediately distinguish that they are abnormal. And you have intuitively realized this, and I think that's why you can't learn that spell.

Real? Brother Liu doesn't know if he is right. Is this really the reason why you can't learn this spell by yourself? He felt that what the old man said seemed to make sense, and there seemed to be something wrong.

"You just saw what the real thunder spell should be like. This is a mystery that can only be experienced in this vast world. If you are interested, I have a little determination to tell you."

"Really, really?" Brother Liu can't believe it. Taoist monks, especially those with strong spells, will not easily guide others, not to mention why is a human being willing to teach a land wolf in such a situation?

"You seem to be as old as my grandson. Just think of it as if we are destined to meet. Let me give you a small gift." The old man said with a smile.

The words of human teenagers? Brother Liu calculated how much older he would be than that of a human teenager, thirty years old? 40 years old? Fifty years old...

"Come here, kid." The old man greeted him, "Let me tell you the main points of Yulei first."

"Ah...really, do you really want to teach me? ...Yes, yes." Brother Liu hurriedly bowed to the old man and quickly walked to him.

"Thundercraft is usually widely used, such as the five-thunder method and the thunder technique..." Under the starry moon, the old man began to tell Brother Liu about the spells he had learned before, which are very different in terms of focus and skills, and may never be touched by the wolves.

......

Brother Liu slipped home. After lying down to **, his heart was still "banging" and jumping. The first time he came into contact with such a spell, although his body was very tired, the feeling of breaking a big tree by lightning just now remained in his heart. What he did, such a big tree...

Brother Liu pulled up the quilt and covered his head and spent the whole night with the human. His enthusiasm for spells seemed to have completely recovered. As he fell asleep, he was still smiling, "Go to learn tomorrow. Hey hey, learn all the powerful spells! Hey hey..." When he fell asleep, there was still a smile on his face.

"Aunt Geng, are you there?" A group of teenagers rushed into Brother Liu's house.

"Let me see..." Geng Niang opened the door and said to the room, "I'm back, but I'm in bed again. This child..."

"Don't worry, Geng Niang, we are going to treat his laziness today!" Shen Zhu, Gaoer, Yu, Leifeng and other teenagers with weapons rushed into the room. Some people lifted the quilt, and some went to drag Brother Liu's back paws (Yes, it's the back claws. He is used to using dogs when sleeping).

"Lazy! Get up!"

"If you sleep like this all day, one day you will wake up and find that you have become a bug!"

"Ah..." With Shen Zhu's words, the cake that was dragging Brother Liu made a scream - Brother Liu under his hand turned into a bug as big as Brother Liu himself and wriggling softly.

"Don't muddle through like this!"

"Get up, you can't become a bug!"

The teenagers rushed up, lifted the worm planted by Brother Liu and put it on the table. Everyone dragged their chairs and sat down around the table and began to lecture the worm.

"Brother Liu," Chen Zhu cleared her throat and said first, "About your recent behavior, we think you can't do it!"

"Yes, yes!" The other teenagers nodded unanimously.

"You have been too lazy recently. In addition to sleeping, you are sleeping. Although Mr. Suxin scolded you a few words, you don't have to do this, do you? Think about us, so what if we are scolded by our husband almost every day, we are not like you, right?"

"Even if you don't want to learn spells anymore, you have to concentrate on practicing. If you don't move, your kung fu will regress."

"Yes, you can't sleep every day and do nothing!"

Brother Liu's worms began to spit silk into cocoons and wrap themselves up.

"Kake, do you think 'fried silkworm chrysalis' is delicious?" Leifeng asked maliciously, "It's delicious!" Ba Da, Ba Ba Da, drooling down.

"Pass the oil lamp and I'll try to burn a little!" Chen Zhu held an oil lamp in his hand. Seeing that Brother Liu still did not respond, he did not hesitate to moxibust him.

"Ah...Chenzhu, you are so black-hearted!" Brother Liu covered his buttocks and jumped up.

Shen Zhu dropped the oil lamp, clapped his hands, and waved to the teenagers: "Let's continue!"

The teenagers rushed up and began to raise their faces to raise their faces, with bitter words, long-hearted words, and violently.

"Brother Liu, there is an inch of time and an inch of gold, and an inch of gold is hard to buy an inch of time..."

"The ancients said: Learn and practice (?) Xizhi, not..."

"Brother Liu, the boss is sad, what is the reason? Because the little one doesn't work hard..."

"Brother Liu..."

"Brother Liu..."

......

A few hours later, Brother Liu found that he would not move in the posture of sitting cross-legged on the table. Leifeng and Yu moved him off the table, and one of them shook his legs, making him stand up.

Brother Liu shook like he was drunk and climbed into the bed to get into the quilt.

"Brother Liu!!!" The teenagers roared together.

Giniang was bringing snacks and drinks in, but she saw a group of teenagers carrying the bed and carrying out the quilt together.

"You..."

"Aunt Geng, don't worry, we will throw this unworthy son into the crater for you immediately."

"Mom, help~"

"Go to the one over there in the West Valley."

"No, go closer to the south!"

"Mother~"

Brother Liu shouted for help and was carried away by his friends.

"This group of children is really..."

Jingshi also came out of the room and looked at the wind-like teenagers with a smile...

"I swear, I'm not lazy, I practice every day! Wow~~~~Don't leave me~~~~" Brother Liu grabbed the edge of the bed and begged for mercy loudly. Below him, deep in an underground rift valley, the magma of the volcano was tossed, and Brother Liu's order was suspended above it. The wolf teenagers were eager to try and prepare to destroy this "lazy dog" humanely.

"You are sleeping every day!"

"I really practice diligently~Help me~~~~~"

The teenagers were skeptical and withdrew the bed again.

Brother Liu took the initiative to climb down from **, wiped his cold sweat and said, "Shall I show you?"

"Try it!" The teenagers held their arms, slanted their eyes, and looked at him with half-doubt.

"Hey~~~" Brother Liu made a series of malicious sneers in his mouth, "I'm going to try..." He stretched out his hand and shouted, "Thunder!"

The thunder was loud, and more than a dozen thunders appeared out of thin air and hit the group of teenagers. He deliberately controlled the strength of the spell and let the thunder and lightning wipe down his companions an inch, but the power of electric light still made several partners' furs burn up, emit an unpleasant smell, and then hit the earth and stones around them.

"Wow!" The partners shouted together.

Brother Liu looked at his hand and said, "That's awesome! So I'm also very good." He raised his head and looked at everyone with a sneer: "Hum... Who just threw me into the volcanic lava... Hem..."

"Wow..." Everyone turned around and began to run away.

"Don't run! You want to try it yourself! Come and have a try!" Brother Liu shouted, waved his arms and sent out a large series of powerful spells that were completely unreliable, and caught up with his friends.

While coaxing and running away, the partners turned around and made faces at him, stuck out their tongues and rolled their eyes.

"Hight! Eat me..."

The partners screamed, laughed, ran forward, and put a stone in their hearts - Brother Liu was really strong and did not waste practice... For a long time, everyone has been playing as indulgently as when they were teenagers, and they ran to their heart's content.

"Sir, sir?" As soon as Brother Liu came to the ground, he looked around.

The old man was still sitting under the tree, gently pulling out the fire in the copper stove, nod to him with a smile, and said hello.

"Sir, today..." Brother Liu chidged and said to him the process of teaching himself a lesson to his friends, "... I'm using thunder magic underground, and it's very powerful... Sir, if I learn from you seriously, will all the spells become more powerful?"

"As long as you have perseverance, such a talent child can do anything." The old man praised him with a smile.

He was not praised as a genius and was praised for his talent. Instead, Brother Liu suddenly blushed and smiled "hey".

"Today I'll tell you some tricks for humans to use spells." The old man stroked his beard and said slowly, "You know, human life expectancy is much shorter than that of monsters, so that in order to speed up the progress of practice and achieve the purpose of prolonging life in a limited time, human beings have used a lot of mind and spent a lot of hard work and sweat of their ancestors, adding a lot of changes to the same spell. Making the practice of spells more direct and faster is the reason why human mages who have only practiced for 50 or 60 years can often fight against monsters who have lived for hundreds of years and thousands of years. I will tell you some special cultivation methods for human beings. Maybe it is difficult for you to understand these, or you can never learn these methods, but the stone of his mountain can attack jade, and it is also good to listen to more things.

"Yes, sir!" Brother Liu clenched his fist nervously and his heart pounded - before, he had never thought that there was any other way to practice than the wolf.

"Hehe, sit down first. Don't be so nervous and solemn. We are not teachers teaching students." The old man comforted Brother Liu.

"Yes, sir!"

"You child. In fact, I can't take you as an apprentice, so we treat it as playing with each other. You make it so serious, but it's not good.

"Ah...yes, I see." Brother Liu suddenly thought that if the elders in his clan pointed out the foreign teenagers without authorization, it would definitely attract the dissatisfaction of the clan. Presumably the situation of the old man was the same. He insisted on calling him "Mr." I'm afraid that it would cause him trouble instead. So he sat down obediently and said at a loss, "Well, you, you..."

"I have a grandson who is about the same age as you. If you don't mind me to take advantage of you, why don't you call me 'Grandpa'?"

"Of course, I treat you as an elder in my heart, so I'll call you master..." Brother Liu "Master" for a long time and grabbed his head and said, "To tell you the truth, my grandfather passed away very early. I have never called the word 'grandfather' when I grew up, so I called No export. Why don't I call you grandfather? My grandfather loves me very much, and you are as good to me as he is!"

" Grandpa..." The old man was slightly surprised.

"Can't..." Brother Liu stuck out his tongue, "Then I'm still called master, master, master... I'll practice again, call me master..."

The old man looked at the distance and seemed to lose his mind for a moment and muttered something. It was not until he heard Brother Liu working hard to practice calling out the word "Grandpa" naturally. He smiled and said, "Just call grandpa. My daughter died early. I couldn't even see my grandson. God has eyes. Let me meet you myself... just call me grandfather." Tears flashed in the corners of his eyes.

"Dunpa." Brother Liu shouted sweetly, and the old man who asked his grandfather to like him was the best. Grab the teapot and pour a cup. Put your hands in front of the old man, "Dunpa, have tea."

Although Brother Liu made tea with unboiling water, the old man still drank it with a smile.

"Yes, Grandpa, I don't know your name yet?"

The old man seemed to meditated for a moment before saying, "My surname is Ren, Ren Shang."

"Ren...Shang..." Brother Liu tried to write these two words on the ground with the human words he had learned.

"...Forget, let's not talk about this, let's talk about human spells..." The old man Shang began to describe the characteristics of human spells. Brother Liu listened attentively and nodded from time to time. An old and young spent another peaceful afternoon in this forest...

"Brother Liu, tomorrow is my grandfather's birthday. Have you prepared the gift?" After dinner, while Genie picked up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen, Jingshi stabbed his son and kindly reminded him.

"Of course, I was ready. I'm not you... I didn't 'reminis' until I was taught by my mother, right?" Brother Liu said to his father with a treacherous smile.

"Goodly remind you, the dog bites Lv Dongbin! Don't go out and run around today! Be careful if you're late!"

"I know, I'll go to my grandfather's house after dinner." Brother Liu swallowed the rice in the bowl and said, "I'll help entertain the guests."

"Well, will you be so good? Are you looking for a chance to steal wine?"

"...How can you misinterpret my filial piety like this!" Brother Liu said aggrievedly, "Of course, I'm such a filial child to celebrate my grandfather's birthday, but by the way..."

"Brother Liu," Geng Niang shouted in the room, "After dinner, go take a shower and change into new clothes..."

"Mom, I'll go to my grandfather's house first." Before she finished speaking, Brother Liu had already run out - he hated to take a hot bath and wet his fur.

"Brother Liu, how can you dress like that to go to the banquet..." No matter how Geng Niang shouted behind, Brother Liu has disappeared.

"Alas..." Geng Niang shook her head and looked back with a sigh, "When will this child grow up?"

"He hardly went to the martial arts arena recently, and he didn't go to school. I heard from his friends say that he seems to be hiding somewhere alone to practice spells..." Jingshi looked at the direction of Brother Liu's disappearance and said, "This child still likes to practice more spells..."

"It's good to like anything. Don't learn anything later."

"It's also..." Jingshi and his wife looked at each other and smiled, holding their hands together.

"Dunpa, Grandpa! Are you there?" Brother Liu shouted and began to search in the trees (Ren Shang to hide in that kind of place~~~~~)

"Brother Liu, didn't you say that today is your grandfather's birthday? Why are you here again?" Ren Shang came out of a cave and was surprised by the arrival of Brother Liu.

"I took a detour on my grandfather's road." Brother Liu ran and gasped, "I also bought one for you when I bought a gift for my grandfather. I want to give it to you today." He took out a small box from his arms and opened it for Ren Shang. Box Chen is a small gem, about the size of a finger belly, but it shines with a colorful light. This kind of gem is only available in deep underground, and even our wolves are difficult to get. Humans may rarely see it. Isn't it strange?

"Yes..." Ren Shang squinted at this unique gem, "I have never received such a gift..."

"It would be great if you like it! I gave my grandfather human wood crafts - the gift should be exchanged like this, right?"

"Yes, yes, you are a very hearty child. I really like it." Ren Shang said excitedly.

"Then I'll say goodbye. I have to go back before my mother finds out that I'm turning the corner." Brother Liu saluted and ran underground.

Ren Shang has been holding the gem. After a long time, he sighed and showed a sad look in his eyes...

Maybe what Ren Shang and Jingshi are thinking at this moment is the same. I hope Brother Liu will never grow up...

Unconsciously, three years have passed, and it has become a habit for Brother Liu to come to the ground every day to learn spells from Ren Shang.

"Dunpa, drink tea." Brother Liu skillfully poured the boiled tea for Ren Shang.

"Have a drink yourself."

"Hey..." Brother Liu muddled through. Since he first drank tea and left the impression of "drinking medicine" three years ago, he has become allergic to tea. For three years, he watched Ren Shang make tea every day and helped him cook it, but he would never touch it.

"After cooking tea for so many years, your craftsmanship is getting better and better," Ren Shang praised after taking a sip, "Really don't taste it?"

"Hey..."

Ren Shang no longer forced him and asked, "Have you read the book I recommended last time?"

"Reading, there are a few things I don't understand, about..." He put down the tea stove and began to ask questions about practice. Ren Shang stroked his beard, nodded as he listened, and began to answer him one by one. Time passed, and when the old and young put down the books, the sun was already setting.

"It's getting late. Grandpa, I'm going back."

"Let's have a cup of tea before leaving." Ren Shang poured him a cup of tea.

"Ah..."

Ren Shang looked at him persistently.

"Okay..." Brother Liu rarely goes against the will of his elders. He took the cup with a bitter face and was ready to fall down with his nose.

"You have learned so much human knowledge in the past few years and have been cooking tea with your own hands. You won't feel bitter if you drink it now."

"Will..."

"Ha ha, you already know human beings very well, and of course you can also taste the taste of tea."

"I won't become a human yet."

Ren Shang smiled and did not answer.

"Okay, okay, isn't it just drinking tea?" Brother Liu bravely raised the cup to his mouth, licked it first, and tasted it. "Well..." He tried to take another sip and took another sip. "The bitterness is bitter, but there is a fragrance that wine does not have... It seems that it can also be drunk..."

"Do you understand?"

"What do you understand?" Brother Liu poured another cup for himself and was slowly tasting it.

"Life is like tea, and you know the joys and sorrows."

"... Grandpa, you want to tell me..."

"Today, you go back first, think about my words, and think about the taste of this cup of tea..."

"Yes." Brother Liu saluted and silently turned out of the valley. He looked at the verdant mountains and forests outside. The water was like a silver belt, and the sunset was like fire. A small village at the foot of the mountain was drifting with smoke, and there was a faint roar of chickens and dogs...

"I understand!" Brother Liu shouted, "I figured it out!"

Ren Shang came out and saw Brother Liu turning around. He greeted him excitedly and said, "Dun, I finally figured it out!" He held Ren Shang's hands, and Ren Shang felt that it was a pair of smooth hands without hair and claws, as well as his face, his eyes and ears...

"Have I become a human?" Brother Liu asked nervously.

"Yes, if you walk into the crowd now, no one will see that you are an alien - if you also change your tail."

"Tail? Why do you still keep the tail..."

"Don't worry, don't worry, take your time..."

"Tail, tail, tail... Wow, Grandpa, how come the ears have grown!"

"Don't worry, don't worry..."

"Wow, even the claws..."

......

"Mom, guess who I am!" Geng Niang, who was sewing clothes, suddenly covered her eyes.

"Who else will call me mother except Brother Liu!" Geng Niang pulled down his hand with a smile, but saw Brother Liu standing in front of her like a "human", "Brother Liu, you..."

"Look, I can become a human!" Brother Liu turned around to show his mother, "There is no tail, no ears, and no long nails. It's perfect!"

"..." Geng Niang looked at him up and down and stroked his shoulder. "My son has grown up."

"Bright, where's Dad? ... went to the practice room again... No, are you drinking with Uncle Nong? I'll show him!" Brother Liu said cracklingly and rolled out of the door like a gust of wind.

In less than half an hour, the whole family knew that Brother Liu could become a human.

Brother Liu's adult banquet is much more lively than other children. Although there are not many relatives in their family, Jingshi and Geng Niang are very popular, and Brother Liu has many friends. In addition, the clans and elders who care about Brother Liu's growth... Dozens of wolves crowded the small house in Jingshi's family.

"Didn't Zhijiu and Zhike come?"

"I called them. If they don't come, I can't tie them up, can I?" Brother Liu has been on guard against them since he heard the dialogue of the Zhiyi brothers a few years ago. Of course, he would not be very sincere when inviting them at his father's order.

"Let's invite them again."

"I won't go!" Brother Liu refused decisively, "Love will come or not. What kind of airs should be invited over and over again!" He greeted him and laughed with a group of friends and made up his mind to stop listening to his father in this matter.

"Alas." Jingshi sighed. He knew that he should not force his son to accept the Zhikui brothers. After all, according to the attitude of the two brothers towards Brother Liu, Brother Liu was polite enough to them. Brother Yiliu's personality has been polite under the condition of being so cold and slow as others, which is already the result of listening to his father's words. I'll call the two brothers," Jingshi told Geng Niang, "You greet the guests first."

"Okay," Geng Niang said gently, "but they really don't want to come, so don't force the children."

"I know." Jingshi arched his hand to the guests around him and hurried out.

"Where is Uncle Jingshi going?"

"Isn't the banquet going to be held soon?"

"Yes, Brother Liu..."

Let's ask Brother Liu together.

"He said he was going to call Brother Zhijiu." No matter how much Brother Liu hides it, he can't hide the unhappiness on his face.

"Why did you call them to come!" The cake is about to jump up with a "bang".

"Gouer," Chen Zhu scolded, "at least they are also cousins of Brother Liu, and it's appropriate to invite them to come."

"But they have been arrogant in the school recently. They think that if Brother Liu doesn't come to class, they are the first and always look arrogant."

"Yes, I always say bad things about Brother Liu intentionally or unintentionally!" Leifeng punched the table heavily. After he became a human, he was a strong and scary man. He was extraordinary and had planned to beat the two brothers.

"I always make small reports in front of my husband."

"And..."

The partners began to pour out their dissatisfaction with the two brothers. Chen Zhu originally wanted to say a few good words for them and was given: "Last time you didn't suffer from your husband's board because of their unruly complaints." There is no sound.

"Anyway, Brother Liu has learned to become a person and can go back to the school immediately."

"Yes, when Brother Liu comes back, let's see if they are still arrogant!"

"Let's talk to Mr. right away."

"Mr..."

The partners couldn't help talking, holding Brother Liu running to Suxin and shouting in a mess, "Sir, sir, can Brother Liu come back to school?" In fact, Brother Liu didn't think about going back to school at all. He wanted to learn from Ren Shang all the time.

"Brother Liu, you have finally learned it. I have already said that with your talent, there is nothing you can't learn with a little hard work." Su Xin smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He changed his usual serious appearance and patted Brother Liu on the shoulder and said affectionately.

"Hey hey hey." Su Xin, who was rarely praised as a student, was very proud to praise him in public, and some of his dissatisfaction with Su Xin immediately disappeared.

"Come back to class tomorrow. Let me see if your studies have been brought down."

"Of course I didn't pull it down." Brother Liu said confidently.

"Of course, a smart child like Brother Liu can glorify his ancestors. Hurry up and have a good drink. Jingshi's group of friends shouted and interrupted the narration between Brother Liu and Suxin.

"Wait a little longer, everyone. Brother Liu's father will be back soon." Geng Niang hurried forward to comfort everyone.

"Where is the head of the family?"

"Why did he disappear from such a happy event?"

"Leave my sister-in-law alone to deal with such a big occasion, this guy is really a bad thing!"

"Who said that? Who doesn't know that the sister-in-law here is the head of the family, right? Sister-in-law, punish him to kneel on the board at night!"

“......”

Complaining, making fun, adding fuel to the fire... All kinds of kind pranks filled the whole room. Geng Niang circled generously and always smiled, but Brother Liu secretly pouted.

When everyone was tired of waiting and the room began to make noise, Jingshi finally came back and followed the brother Zhijiu - he really brought them.

"I finally invited the 'immortal' to the earth..." The cake muttered discontentedly.

Chen Zhu pushed him: "Come to the table quickly, so as not to let the adults scold him."

The cake was full of breath, and when passing by the brother Zhijiu, he still left a sentence: "It's embarrassing for the elders to sit as the chief."

Jingshi forced the Jijiu brothers to be the chief, sitting with the patriarch, Suxin and Brother Liu's grandfather.

"Guys, today is the big day of the children's stay. If you can appreciate the glory and make our whole family bright, quiet and clumsy, and you won't say anything literary words, I will give you a toast first!" After saying that, Jingshi looked up and had a drink first.

"Done!"

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"I have to have a good drink today!"

"If you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

......

There was a sudden noise outside the house, which had just been quiet for a moment because of Jingshi's speech. There was a lot of toast, punches and congratulations. Like boiling a pot, Brother Liu, who turned into a human form, blushed and toasted at the table under the leadership of his parents. Most of the guests were dry, and everyone at the banquet was smiling, and only two people clearly showed their impatimity.

Zhijiu kept drinking, but Zhike didn't even move his chopsticks and sat at the table - the two brothers were arranged by the chief, and everyone could see each move clearly. Every time Brother Liu's eyes fell on them, an anger surged up in his heart: either he didn't come, but he looked like this, which made people see. Angry.

"Brother Ling!" Jingshi's voice was a little harsh, "A toast to your cousin."

"I know." Brother Liu smiled. He was a well-mannered child, and he was not rude to show his emotions in public like the Zhijiu brothers.

"Brother, second cousin, let me toast to the bar. Come on, I'll toast first." Brother Liu came to the Zhijiu brothers with a smile on his face, drank it first, and lit up the cup to them.

Zhi Jue barely squeezed out a smile on her face and raised her glass to drink. Zhike sat still, with his eyes straight at the wine and vegetables on the table, as if he didn't hear Brother Liu's words. The chief sat down all of a sudden looked at him, and the atmosphere fell silent.

"C cousin, let's have a toast!" Brother Liu still smiled and picked up the wine glass on the table and handed it to Zhike.

"When!!"

Zhike waved his hand, and the cup in Brother Liu's hand flew out and fell to pieces on the ground.

The whole room focused on him.

"I'll do it first!" Brother Liu looked up and drank his cup, took a picture of the bottom of the cup at Zhike, took a clean empty cup little by little, poured a cup with a wine jug in his hand, and handed it to Zhike with both hands, "Cousin, please."

Zhike suddenly stood up and looked directly at Brother Liu.

"Ji Ke!" An elder made a reproach.

"Let's go!" Zhike pulled Zhijiu and turned around and walked out of the door. Zhijue seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still followed - although Zhijue was the brother of the two brothers, it was obviously the younger brother Zhike who made the decision - they went straight out of the door and left a room of guests who looked at each other.

"Everyone keep eating, you're welcome." Jingshi comforted the guests and looked uneasily in the direction of the disappearance of the two brothers outside the door. Geng Niang understood her husband's intention and quietly walked out of the door without everyone paying attention.

"It's so annoying! Brother Liu, how can you stand this tone!"

"That's right, you are willing to swallow this breath like this!"

"Brother Liu..."

When Brother Liu came to the group of friends to toast, the children immediately shouted and rushed Brother Liu to teach the two brothers a lesson.

"I'm here to toast everyone!" Brother Liu smiled and said, "Come on, cheers!"

"Brother Liu, you let them too!"

"That's right!"

“......”

Brother Liu glanced around and saw that his father and elders were far away from him, so he lowered his voice and whispered, "I have revenged against them - the more polite I am, the more I will be scolded by the elders later, believe it!"

"Oh, so it is..." The partners suddenly realized and nodded, "It's worthy of Brother Liu, with a bad heart..."

Jingshi heard all this clearly and just looked up to see Geng Niang coming in from the door and shaking her head slightly at him. The original joy on his face suddenly converged, showing a worried and even sad look. Although he immediately regained his smiling face, his expression at this moment still fell into Liu's eyes.

Brother Liu didn't say anything for a while.

The father attaches too much importance to the Zhi Jue brothers. Why? Things that were about to be forgotten suddenly came to my mind - my father had killed my uncle with his own hands...

At this joyful and festive banquet, there was a touch of uneasiness in Brother Liu's heart that he couldn't tell why...

"I'm exhausted!" Brother Liu lay heavily down, spread his limbs, and took a breath. Recently, he resumed going to school in the morning. In the afternoon, he practiced martial arts with his father, and in the evening, he slipped to the ground to learn spells from Ren Shang. His life was a little tight and breathless, but these days, both spells and martial arts have made great progress. Many difficult places were suddenly enlightened.

"I'm exhausted, exhausted!" Brother Liu was rolling around and complaining.

Although it keeps spinning like a top every day, these do not make Brother Liu feel tired, but make him feel full. He is energetic all day long, and it is something else that makes him shout tired.

Sure enough, after a while, Geng Niang pushed the door and walked into his house, sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Brother Liu, how do you think of this child? She cooked the food tonight! Is this child's craftsmanship good?

"No...wrong..." Brother Liu lengthen his tone.

"So what about the piano yesterday? She is really a handsome girl, right? There is also the second girl Xiaoci of Brother Farmer's family. Her embroidery skills are among the best in the family. The more Geng Niang said, the more energetic she became. She lifted the sheet that covered Liu Ge's face, pulled him up and asked, "Brother Liu, do you have any ideas?"

"Mother, what can I do? I see several different girls every day. I can't remember who is who..." Brother Liu was about to cry.

"That's right. Such a big thing can't depend on your child's vision, marriage, the fate of your parents, and the words of the matchmaker. Your father should help you make the decision. I have to discuss it with your father!"

"Mother!" Brother Liu jumped up suddenly, "You are too worried about this!"

"Silly child, it's right for you to worry about you. This is your lifelong event. Who cares if you don't worry about it? Don't you expect your father who can only drink?"

"Mom... I beg you not to worry about me so much..." Brother Liu pleaded with tears.

"When Brother Liu becomes a family, has a wife and a house, and has children in a few years, my mother can't worry about you..." Geng looks forward to the future infinitely. "At that time, my brother Liu will become the head of the family. Man is a man. Naturally, your wife will take care of you, and your mother will take care of the housework for you. Take a look. Child..." She talked further and further and arranged her life after becoming a grandfather.

"Mom..." Brother Liu has a feeling that he can't cry, "You really want to sell me to those women you don't know..."

"For sale? Why do you say so badly! Mother is hiring for you!"

"Today's housework and three meals, a full set of embroidery, leather and jewelry..." Brother Liu pulled his fingers and said, "Which one is not given to you by those women! It obviously wants to sell me for these gadgets!" He said angrily, "You actually used your son to 'price up' and want to sell me at a high price!"

"You child!" Geng Niang glanced at him, "Of course, I'm choosing my daughter-in-law. If I marry someone who can't do anything back, I will end up serving my daughter-in-law in addition to your two!"

"What's serving our grandfather and daughter-in-law..." Jingshi pushed the door and came in. He was drunk and asked with wine.

"Dad, who did you go to drink again?" Brother Liu greeted me listlessly.

"You crazy uncle's house!" Jingshi patted his thigh and said, "Let me tell you, Brother Liu, that crazy little daughter, beautiful! Very beautiful! You must know her! Very beautiful! If I were 100 years younger..." He pointed happily and didn't notice Geng Niang's dangerous eyes at all. Brother Liu squeezed his eyes and pouted at him, but he had already drunk clearly. How could he notice these small movements? Brother Liu sighed and closed his eyes at his command.

"...I'll tell you about Brother Liu..." Jingshi continued, "That little girl is so beautiful..." "How beautiful?"

"Beautful! I have never seen such a beautiful girl!"

"Real?"

"Of course! Let me tell you, if I were 100 years younger, I would..."

"How about a hundred years younger?" Geng Niang gently rubbed her husband's shoulder.

"Geng...G...Gmei..." Jingshi finally found that there was not only one son in the room. Facing his wife's eyes, he was half awake.

"Fare, who did you give your son to verbally today?"

"No, I didn't agree."

"Don't agree? How many glasses of wine will you not agree with? Geng Niang patted the dust for Jingshi with a veil, "It's been more than a dozen families this month, hasn't it?" What's more, this time you are still a handsome girl who is 100 years younger than me!"

"Sister Geng, I'm drunk and talking nonsense! How dare I have such a thought!"

"Real?"

"Don't you know me? You don't have the courage to be a thief! I..."

Brother Liu covered his eyes under the quilt - how on earth was he born by such a stupid father!

"There is that thief... So it is..." Geng Niang nodded.

"Gunmei, don't look at me like this..." Jingshi let out a wail, "Brother Liu, tell your mother, I've never..."

"Don't bring your son in, come back to the room!"

"Gengmei..."

Geng Niang glanced at him and walked out with a lot of manners.

"Gunmei, Liu Geer..." Jingshi held his hand, looked at it for a while, and still followed obediently.

"Gugugu..." Brother Liu covered his head with a quilt and rolled with a smile.

Since Brother Liu held his coming-of-age ceremony, he has become the best son-in-law candidate in the eyes of the whole family with girls. It doesn't count that the matchmaker came to propose marriage. The parents came out to Jingshi and Lu Niang in person, and the girls came to the door in an endless stream. Jingshi was busy drinking outside all day, and didn't know how many times he had sold his son on the banquet. Geng Niang dealt with the girls' mothers and girls themselves, collected a lot of embroidery and jewelry, and analyzed which daughter's craft was better and more similar in temperament every day.

Brother Liu also knows that his parents are in charge of marriage affairs, and he shouldn't interrupt too much, but he really doesn't want to get married so early. As long as he thinks of living with a girl who has never spoken or even met, he is all awkward.

"Alas... I hope my parents will be dazzled and don't make a decision for a while." Brother Liu got up from ** and put on his shoes and quietly walked out of the house - even if his parents now know that he goes out to practice spells alone every day, he can't help sneaking out.

It has just rained on the ground, and the air is moist and fresh, with the smell of vegetation. Brother Liu took a deep breath of this completely different air from the land and stretched his limbs. Over the years, he has been on the ground every day. He is completely used to it and likes everything on the ground.

He looked up at the stars in the way of Ren Shangjia to determine the time and ran to the caves where Ren Shang lived.

"Dunpa, I'm here, we..." Brother Liu shouted and ran into the cave, but found that there was another old man sitting with Ren Shang to taste tea, so he suddenly stopped walking.

"Brother Liu, come here," Ren Shang waved to him and said to the old man, "Look, this is the child I'm talking about."

"Oh..." The old man stroked his beard and looked up and down at his brother. "The child of the land wolf..."

Brother Liu didn't know what the mystery was in it, so he walked to Ren Shang and stood with his hands.

The old man looked at Brother Liu for a while and said to Ren Shang, "It looks like a smart child, but..."

"Brother Hu, you don't have to force yourself. I just mention it casually. If it doesn't work, forget it." Ren Shang said with a smile, "I know that the illusion of nobles is never passed on."

"It's not that it can't be passed on. There are no rules that can't be passed on in the clan, but..." The old man repeatedly thought about it. He had been friends with Ren Shang for hundreds of years. A few days ago, he blurted out that Ren Shang would agree to make any request as a birthday gift for Ren Shang. Unexpectedly, Ren Shang immediately mentioned such a thing. It's not difficult to say, and it's a very nerve-wracking request. It's just that some of our spells are not learned by foreigners, and they can't even become elite wild foxes. This land wolf's child is..."

"Hehe, don't underestimate this child. His brain is smart."

"Illusion?" Can't foreigners learn?" Can't even learn the wild fox?" These dialogues got into Brother Liu's ears one by one. His heart pounded. Was the old man... Was he talking to his grandfather - he stared nervously at the thinking old man for fear that he would spit out the word "no".

"Alas, gentleman said a word," the old man finally sighed, "who told me to fill the words! All right, I'll teach you!"

"Really!" Brother Liu blurted out that he had a kind of excitement to get to the top of the cave.

Ren Shang glanced at him with a smile and asked, "Do you know what we are talking about?"

Brother Liu nodded.

"Tpeak and listen."

"I guess this senior must be a nine-tailed fox, and what my grandfather asked him to teach me is the illusion of the nine-tailed fox." Brother Liu said his guess confidently.

"Ha ha, it's really smart." The old man laughed and said, "Okay. Now that you have guessed it, do you have the confidence to learn from me?

"Yes!" Brother Liu straightened his waist and answered loudly.

"I only give you five days. In these five days, I will teach you carefully. If you learn it in five days, I will teach you another spell as a reward. If you can't learn it in five days, you will never have a chance."

"I can learn!"

"Haha, Brother Ren, your grandson is not small!"

"Don't underestimate him. I think you have to teach him two spells."

"Then let's start tomorrow. It's too late today." Ren Shang bought more time for Brother Liu. He told Brother Liu, "From tomorrow on, you still come here to learn from Brother Hu and cherish this opportunity. I have something to leave for a few days and come back to check how your learning is."

"Dunpa is going out?" Brother Liu is a little uneasy about Ren Shang's absence.

"I have something to do in my family. Go back and have a look." Ren Shang's face restrained his smile.

"Where are you going back?" Old Hu obviously had some dissatisfaction. He put the cup heavily and said, "What should I do when I go back to that place?"

Ren Shang lowered his head and said no words.

"In a word, you should understand after Qiu Niang's death, why do you still regard them as..."

Ren Shang looked at Brother Liu around him and did not answer.

"Child," Hu Laozhe waved to Brother Liu, "You go back today and come on time tomorrow. I will teach you! I have something to talk to your grandfather!"

"Yes." Knowing that the two old people wanted to say something that he could not hear, Brother Liu hurriedly agreed, bowed to the old man Hu, walked out, took a few steps and looked back at Ren Shang. Thinking that he would not be here tomorrow, he couldn't help but be reluctant.

"Go ahead, I'll be back in three or two days." Ren Shang waved his hand to Brother Liu, "Don't forget to work hard. I'll wait to see."

"Yes." Brother Liu got the exact time for him to come back, relieved and left with a smile.

"Brother Ren, this child..." Old Hu said a few words but didn't go on. Like Ren Shang, he looked at the door where Brother Liu left and started to stay.

"Lala, lala, lala, I'm going to learn illusion tomorrow..." Brother Liu proudly hummed a little song and ran back happily. He really wanted to tell the first clan about his opportunity to learn the illusion of the nine-tailed fox. Unfortunately, Ren Shang repeatedly warned him not to mention himself to anyone, so he has been with his father for so many years. The mother didn't tell herself where she learned the spell.

It's a little disappointing that he can't show off everywhere, but his interest rises again when he thinks of showing illusions in front of the clan.

"La la la, la la la..." Brother Liu sang all the way, but he didn't notice that he had two pairs of eyes staring at him.

"He came down from the ground..." Zhike came out of the hiding place and said to Zhijiu behind him.

Zhijiu also opened his eyes in disbelief: "He dares to go to the ground alone."

The two brothers looked at each other for a long time and said decisively, "Let's go, let's go up and see what he's doing!"

The next day, Brother Liu was immersed in excitement all day. After dinner, he slipped out of the door early without his mother's attention.

"Geng sister! Sister Geng!" When Jingshi shouted anxiously and ran into the house, Brother Liu had gone far away.

"Where's Brother Liu! Where's Brother Liu?" Jingshi pushed the door and shouted loudly.

Geng Niang came out of the room and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong? Brother Liu has gone out. What are you doing?

"Has he gone to the ground again?" Jingshi asked with a pale face.

"The ground?"

Jingshi looked at his wife bloodlessly: "He, he has been chasing him back with... recently!" After saying that, he turned around and ran wildly, regardless of the etiquette of the wolf clan, and got out of the ceiling.

Geng Niang stood in the room and meditate: "On the ground, Brother Liu went to the ground... 'He has always been with'... and what? Who are you with... What's going on... Is it..." She thought of the most terrible idea and couldn't help trembling all over. "No, Brother Liu is my son! No! Brother Liu is my son!"

Brother Liu stood regularly and waved his most respectful appearance under the look of the old Hu. He could see that the old nine-tailed fox was far from as easy-going and amiable as Ren Shang, so he didn't dare to make up at all.

"Your name is Brother Liu, right?"

"Yes, sir, it's Brother Liu."

"Brother Liu..." Old Hu seemed to be savoring the name, and Brother Liu couldn't help raising his heart - he won't not teach me because he didn't like my name, would he?

"Okay, I'll teach you illusion from today. Come out with me." Old Hu motioned Brother Liu to walk out of the cave with him.

"I'm about to learn illusion, and soon..." Brother Liu was nervous and excited, and his palms were sweating.

"You..." Old Hu was about to ask something, but he suddenly changed his mouth and asked with a straight face, "Brother Liu, have you told others about me?"

"No!" Brother Liu shook his head quickly.

"Real?" Old Hu nodded, but suddenly turned around, raised his hand and waved his hand. A gust of wind blew the bushes behind Brother Liu upside down, revealing a wolf man hiding behind him, "Huh!" Old Hu snorted coldly and asked Brother Liu, "Your clan?"

"Mr. Suxin..." Brother Liu looked at the wolf man and muttered.

Su Xin's face was full of embarrassment, patted the grass and dust on his body and came out awkwardly. He has been quietly following Brother Liu. When he saw Brother Liu enter the cave, he approached him. Unexpectedly, he was suddenly found by the old man Hu. When he saw the old man Hu's appearance, he seemed to be shocked. He quickly stepped back a few steps and gave a deep salute to the old man Hu: "It turned out to be a nine-tailed sky fox. I'm really rude." He has recognized the identity of old Hu.

"Don't be polite." Old Hu's tone was very cold.

"I'm Su Xin of the wolf clan. Do you dare to ask the name of Mr. Tianhu?" Su Xin's tone is full of respect.

"Hu, Hu Lisheng."

"Sneer." Brother Liu couldn't help laughing - the name of the nine-tailed fox old man was actually "Fox Life". Two sharp eyes fell on him together. He was busy trying to withdraw his smile, and his face turned red.

"Brother Liu, since your elders have come to pick you up, you can go back today and come back tomorrow." Hu Lisheng was obviously very unhappy and said coldly.

"Oh. Got it." Brother Liu knew that he couldn't learn today, so he agreed.

Hu Lisheng ignored Suxin and Brother Liu, who said goodbye to him, and turned back to the cave.

"I could have learned the illusion that only the nine-tailed fox can do today." Out of Hu Lisheng's sight, Brother Liu finally couldn't help muttering and complaining.

"Of course, of course, it's not good for you. You shouldn't be angry with him." Su Xin smiled a little silly and blushed excitedly. "It turns out that you have been learning magic from this heavenly fox. Why didn't you tell it earlier? It makes the elders worry about you.

"Don't let me say it." Brother Liu's words are vague.

"Of course, of course, don't let me tell you. Mr. Liu is a hundred people at ease. Haha, the illusion of the nine-tailed fox, the illusion of the nine-tailed fox. They have never been passed on. Brother Liu, good job!" He patted Brother Liu hard on the shoulder, and he looked more excited than Brother Liu himself that he was going to learn the illusion of the nine-tailed fox.

"Sir, what do you think the illusion of the nine-tailed fox looks like? Mr. Hu only gave me five days, saying that if I can't learn it, he will never teach it again, but if I learn it, he will teach me another spell as a reward! I'm a little worried that such a difficult spell is only five days old. I've never seen that kind of spell with my own eyes.

"I've only seen it once..." Su Xin recalled, "That was more than a hundred years ago. The nine-tailed fox was so young - at most a little older than you - but it fought against a large group of monsters alone. It was really easy and understated. After he used illusions, alas, I can't describe it. ...In a word, Brother Liu, what you have got is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Don't miss it.

"I know that it is a rare opportunity to learn spells that I have never seen before, and I will hold them."

Jingshi ran towards him and saw his aggressive appearance. Brother Liu cleverly jumped aside and finally escaped the disaster, but Su Xin collided with Jingshi, and both of them fell to the sky. Jingshi, who practiced martial arts, had strong muscles and bones. He immediately bounced up from the ground, grabbed his son and asked, "Brother Liu, it doesn't matter, right? What's wrong with you?"

"Dad..." Brother Liu carefully pointed to his feet, "Sir..."

Su Xin was hit firmly in the chest by Jingshi, and he was hiding on the ground moaning and couldn't get up for a long time.

"Mr. Susin, are you all right? Sorry, I'm sorry!" Jingshi picked up Suxin, cleaned the dust for him with his hands, and slapped loudly. Brother Liu couldn't help opening his mouth and taking a cold breath.

"No...no... nothing..." Su Xin finally gasped and tried his best to refuse Jingshi's kindness.

"Dad, why are you here?" Brother Liu asked puzzledly. What happened today? Why did your husband and father appear on the ground together? And it looks like a special trip to find yourself.

"Brother Liu, how are you? Have you been cheated? That man..."

"Brother Jingshi, it was a heavenly fox who taught his magic." Su Xin interrupted him.

"God...fox..." Jingshi opened his mouth wide, "Teaching Brother Liu's spells?"

"Brother, your son is really amazing!" Su Xin said proudly, "Soon I will give up the position of the first mage of the whole family."

"Tianhu..." Jingshi was still surprised. "Brother Liu, you didn't lose the face of our wolf clan when you went to learn spells from him, did you?"

"Of course not!" Brother Liu pouted and shouted, "Why did you come? You also came. What's going on today?"

Jingshi was stunned for a moment, patted his head and said, "I heard that you ran to the ground by yourself. Don't worry about following me. You know it's dangerous on the ground, haha..."

"I'm not a child anymore, and I won't get lost!" Brother Liu stamped his feet to make the child's sex.

Jingshi sighed in his heart. It's better not to let Brother Liu know the truth of the matter. Su Xin looked at the father and son and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Why do you frame Brother Liu'er for dating unharmed!" In the afternoon class, Su Xin angrily walked to Zhi Yu and Zhi Ke and waved their hands and slapped each of them in the face.

"I have a relationship with no injury!" Brother Liu jumped up and rushed to Brother Zhijiu, "Why are you talking so nonsense!" Only then did he understand why his husband and father followed him, why his father was so anxious and worried, and why his husband did that kind of sneaky thing that did not match his identity, "Make contact with injuryless!" This kind of slander made him shudder. He stared at the Zhijiu brother fiercely and roared, "What's wrong with me? Since I was a child, I have made concessions to you and endured everywhere. Why can't you get along with me again and again? How dare you frame me like this!"

The Zhijiu brothers were slapped in the face and bowed their heads in awe, but when Brother Liu questioned them, their eyes were still full of resentment.

"You'd better be careful. From today on, I don't care whether you are my uncle's son or not. As long as it happens to me, I will never be polite! Do you hear me? Be careful!"

"Brother Liu, all right," Su Xin patted him on the shoulder. Brother Liu was not angry when he made such a big noise in the school, but comforted him kindly, "No wonder you are angry when such a thing happened, but Zhi Ke and the others are also confused for a while, and it's enough to figure it out." He looked at the students and announced loudly, "Tell everyone, Brother Liu did sneak to the ground these days, but it was not harmless to communicate with him and guide his spells, but a nine-tailed heavenly fox predecessor."

"Nine-tailed Sky Fox,"

"Nine-tailed Sky Fox?"

"Do you hear that? Sir said it was..."

"Brother Liu, is this true?"

"Oh, my God, it's so awesome!"

The students suddenly talked about it, and everyone couldn't hide their surprise.

In the country of Qingqiu, the nine-tailed fox family is regarded as an auspicious symbol by the residents here and has a very high status among many races.

Moreover, the nine-tailed fox family is proficient in spells, and there are many people who have achieved positive results in the past dynasties. Their race, living in small family units, is particularly united and echoes each other. Even in terms of strength, there is no race in Qingqiu country that can compare with them.

The residents of Qingqiu country respected them so much, and the nine-tailed fox also regarded themselves highly. This race rarely comes and goes with foreigners. There are any major events in China that invite them to participate in, and also sends several messengers to deal with them politely. They never intervene much. The residents of Qingqiu country usually don't have many opportunities to face and exchange with them, let alone He said he learned spells from them.

"And..." Su Wen Suxin watched everyone continue to announce, "This heavenly fox also wants to teach Liu Geer illusion." Illusion!" The students' mouths are getting bigger and bigger.

The magic of the illusion of the nine-tailed fox family is well known all over the world. It is a secret method in their clan. Brother Liu actually has this opportunity to learn it.

"This is the blessing of my brother, and it is also the blessing of my family!" Su Xin sighed. As long as Brother Liu learns illusion, over time, more and more people will naturally learn this spell. Hundreds of years later, perhaps the earth wolf clan will become the second race famous for illusion after the nine-tailed fox. At that time, it will not care about any injury, and even the people on the ground may not be still the wolf. The opponent of the clan. The more Su Xin thought about it, the more proud he laughed. The students also thought of this possibility, discussed with each other, and smiled undisguably excitedly.

"After school today," Su Xin announced loudly, "Brother Liu will go back and have a good rest to prepare to learn illusion tomorrow - don't practice martial arts today, you know?" He added one more instruction.

"Yes." Brother Liu hurriedly agreed. He knew that his husband had never been satisfied with his time on martial arts, just like his father didn't like to spend a lot of time on magic. Why can't they know themselves like their grandfather and understand that they respect their interests for knowledge and study? When will Grandpa come back? Brother Liu began to calculate the days and wanted to study alone in the face of serious Hu Lisheng, which was really a little hairy.

"Brother Liu, what does the nine-tailed fox look like?"

"Is there really nine tails?"

"It must be majestic and powerful, right?"

"No, I guess he must be a fairy, floating out of the dust. Brother Liu, don't you think so?"

"It's not..." Brother Liu poured cold water on these speculative friends. "It's similar to Yu's grandfather - he's just an old man."

"Alas..." The partners sighed disappointedly.

"Is the spell he taught powerful?"

"Awesome, the spell of the nine-tailed fox." Brother Liu hasn't learned Hu Lisheng's magic at all, so he is talking nonsense.

"Then you have learned illusion, can you come back and teach us?" Shen Zhu asked with anticipation.

"As long as Mr. Hu doesn't allow me to pass it on, of course I will teach you first. If he doesn't..."

"Of course, they don't allow you to teach you, but if you allow it, you have to be the first to teach me!"

"Me too."

"And me."

My friends signed up one after another to participate in Brother Liu's illusion teaching class. Only Gao Ernuo said, "I don't think I can learn it. Brother Liu doesn't have to work too much energy for me."

"You retreated before you learned it. You are too promising!" My friends fired at him together.

"I don't think he is promising or can't learn, but he doesn't have time to learn!" Yu shook his head and said, "You don't know that the cake has been booked, and the bride will be welcomed next month, and even the bride price has been given."

"What! No way!" The teenagers shouted together.

"Why not? He ordered my fourth uncle's niece, and others would hide it from me!"

"Is it true?" Everyone immediately surrounded the cake in the middle.

"No, no, no...not fake." Under the strict gaze of this group of partners, Gaoer finally didn't dare to lie. "That was ordered by my parents. I don't even know what my parents are."

"If you have become a marriage, you will know when you worship."

"The groom is anxious. Why don't we go with you to take a peek at what the future sister-in-law looks like?"

"I didn't expect that you were the one who had family affairs among us first! Recently, everyone proposed marriage to Brother Liu so vigorously that he must be the first to marry!"

"Why did you bring me in again! I'm not a cake. I only hang the bride all day long.

"Where am I hanging like this?"

"I said it just now, but my mouth is still hard!"

"Brother Shiliu, you ask for a beating!"

"No shame, no shame, the cake is thinking about my daughter-in-law!"

"Don't run!"

“......”

Su Xin said that he wanted to rest early, but he still quarreled with his friends for a few hours. He stepped into the house at dinner. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jingshi and Geng Niang sitting at the table waiting for him.

"Father and mother." Brother Liu knew that his parents must have something to say to himself and walked over obediently.

Jingshi and Geng Niang looked at each other and sighed. Geng Niang said first, "Brother Liu, this incident really scared me and your father out of my soul, do you know?"

"I know it's wrong."

"It's not your fault to learn magic, but you should discuss it with your parents first. Even if it's not unharmed, there are still people with sinister intentions in the world. You don't understand that if they ask you not to come back, you really won't say anything. In case, in case... If you have a mistake, you can tell your mother how to live..." Wipe tears.

Brother Liu is not afraid. He is most afraid of seeing his mother shed tears. He knelt down on his knees, hugged Geng Niang's legs and said, "Mom, I dare not do it anymore."

Jingshi sat beside him without saying anything, and then said slowly, "Brother Liu, how do you know this heavenly fox?"

"I..." Brother Liu opened his mouth and swallowed his words again - to be honest, Fang said that it was introduced by Ren Shang, so who is Ren Shang? How did you meet? Wait... It will involve a large number of problems, and he has promised not to tell anyone about him. Naturally, "anyone" also includes his parents, right?

"I was in a bad mood when I couldn't learn to change. I ran to the ground and met him." - Brother Liu did not specify which "he".

"Then keep learning spells from him?"

"Hmm."

"For so many years, I haven't said anything in front of my parents..." Jingshi sighed heavily.

"Because I promised not to tell anyone about him, didn't my father often teach me to make a promise?" Brother Liu is eager to defend himself.

"I know, I didn't say you're wrong..." Jingshi looked very tired and looked like he was dozens of years old. Obviously, the incident of "Brother Liu and injury-free" hit him a lot. Jingshi said slowly, "Brother Liu, you have grown up and should not interfere in your affairs too much, but in the same way, you should no longer be as arbitrary as when you were a child. This time, maybe you will pass with a smile, but have you ever thought about how serious it is? Dating without injury... You can't stand such a crime on your shoulder."

"I'm not afraid of shadows! I haven't done anything wrong with my conscience!" Brother Liu answered righteously.

"You don't understand the seriousness of the incident at all!" Jingshi patted the table heavily and roared.

The teacup and bowl jumped high and fell on the table. Brother Liu was so scared that he trembling and looked at his father with wide eyes. In his memory, his father never lost his temper with him like this.

"...you don't understand, you don't understand..." Jingshi lowered his head and said, "You don't have to do anything wrong with your conscience, as long as you have the name of no harm... Big brother, he didn't do anything. He pointed to the earth and swore to me that he had not betray the clan... And there is no evidence, no evidence. There is no information. It's just unharmed. That's enough... That's enough..." Jingshi's voice became lower and lower, and two lines of turbid tears slipped down his cheeks.

"What on earth has he done?" Brother Liu summoned up the courage to ask.

Jingshi raised his head and met his son. The father and son looked at each other for a long time before Jingshi sighed: "I should have thought that you are so old and so famous that you can't hear the wind."

"..." Brother Liu didn't know how to explain why he knew that incident.

"It's good for you to know..." Jingshi said slowly, "How much do you know about the eldest brother?"

"I know that uncle used to be one of the best mages in the clan. Later, he secretly dated with the clan without injury, and then, later..." Brother Liu bit his lip and couldn't go on.

"In the end, I forced my eldest brother to death..." Jingshi choked.

Brother Liu listened carefully. What Jingshi said was a little different from what he had heard - what he heard was that Jingshi killed Ruoshi with his own hands, and what Jingshi said was that he "forced" Ruoshi to death.

Seeing that her husband choked and couldn't go on, Geng Niang took over and said, "At that time, our clan clashed with no injury one after another, and we suffered a lot of casualties, so the clan suspected that it was because of internal traitors. At that time, my uncle often lived on the ground and didn't come back, and there have been rumors in the clan that he had a good deal with him. Speaking of this, Geng Niang sighed. Ruoshi was engaged by his parents like all wolves when he was a teenager, but after the marriage, the relationship between the couple was very discordant, which is also one of the reasons why Ruoshi likes to wander on the ground and does not go home. Ruoshi's relationship with no harm on the ground was reported by his wife to the elders of the clan.

"The uncle was ordered to come back immediately to explain to the elders of the clan, but the uncle repeatedly refused these orders and claimed that he had enough days of living in the dark underground and killing endlessly with the uninjured people. From then on, he wanted to get rid of the wolf. Clan, break away from the earth and live the life of an ordinary monster on the earth.

"Ah! He is crazy!" Brother Liu blurted out - living on the ground away from the earth? This kind of thing, either Brother Liu or other wolves, don't even dare to think about it.

"Yes," Geng Niang looked at her husband and said, "At that time, the people's reaction was the same as you. They all thought he was crazy, but your father didn't think so at that time. He felt that his uncle had always been rational and should not suddenly become so crazy, so he went to his uncle in person..."

Jingshi covered his face with his hand and sobbed: "If only I hadn't gone to the eldest brother... I'm so stupid! Damn it! Whoo..."

Brother Liu has heard that Ruoshi was killed later because his father went to see him this time. He looked nervously at his mother and waited for her to tell the details.

"Your father went to the ground to find his uncle and found that he had settled a home on the ground for himself, with a wife and a newborn son..."

"He married the race on the ground?" Brother Liu understands why his uncle insists on living on the ground. If he marries a woman of human or other races, he can't let him live underground like a wolf, right?

"He wants a foreign woman, but that woman is not a race on the ground, but a harmless woman..."

"Bang!" Brother Liu hit the ceiling because his head bounced too high from the ground. "Is he really crazy?" He shouted, "No injury, no injury..." This word alone made Brother Liu's mane erect. If you want another woman like that to be a pillow person - this kind of thing is absolutely only done by a madman. Uncle Ruoshi may not be a traitor. He is a complete madman!

... I can't understand why the eldest brother did this. He would abandon his wife, children and the whole family for the sake of no injury...

"And then?" Brother Liu can almost guess what will happen next.

"The clan went to the ground to catch the uncle and deal with it, but the uncle's magic power was high, and the injured woman's kung fu was not weak, so the clan members injured a lot of good hands and finally subdued them. The uncle repeatedly protested, saying that he just didn't want to live the past. The uninjured woman, like him, has deviated from the uninjured race, so he has not collusion with the uninjured race at all and is impossible.

"People don't believe him, right?" Brother Liu asked.

"No, at first, the clan would rather believe him, because after all, he was a cunning man in the clan, and he had made a lot of contributions to the clan. Everyone was willing to believe that it was a misunderstanding from the bottom of their hearts, and hoped that the uncle could get rid of his name and return to the clan."

"How could his uncle die?"

"Alas..." Geng Niang sighed, "At that time, the clan wanted to escort the uncle back, and his wife, the unharmed woman, what should she do? Everyone did not want to bring an unharmed person back to the clan, and they also believed that the uncle was confused by the unharmed family, so at that time, a clanman cut off the head of the uninjured woman with a sword without waiting for everyone to stop..."

"Ah..." Brother Liu opened his mouth wide.

"Originally, the uncle had stopped resisting, but as soon as he saw the woman being killed, he suddenly broke the rope like crazy and rushed up and bit off the throat of the clan."

"Ah!" Brother Liu exclaimed again.

"Although the uncle injured a lot of people in the previous resistance, he did not kill anyone. At this time, he became extremely ferocious and started to kill. After killing several people, he rushed into the house to take out a small baby and ran into the woods..."

"Your father didn't mention the child to the clan, so the clan didn't expect that the uncle and the unharmed woman had been together for so long, and even the child was born. Second, the child was too quiet that he didn't cry after fighting outside for more than half an hour, so everyone looked at the uncle holding one. The child came out and was stunned there. By the time everyone understood, the uncle had run away without a trace. After killing the clan and giving birth to a child without injury, the clan who did not believe that the uncle was a traitor were all convinced that the uncle betrayed the wolf clan. The patriarch ordered the execution of the uncle and the child he was holding. All the soldiers in the clan went out and chased and intercepted him on the strange ground for seven days. I don't know how many people died. It was not until the seventh day that your father caught up with the uncle who had not closed his eyes or eaten or drank alone in a forest for seven days and seven nights... ..."

With his mother's description, Brother Liu remembered the nightmare many years ago: Ruoshi ran away on the ground, and finally Jingshi stopped in front of him... Thinking of the realistic dream, Brother Liu shivered.

... Your father asked your uncle to come back to his family to plead guilty, but your uncle refused, because our clan and he had a hatred of killing his wife, so he would never come back...

Brother Liu trembled again when he heard this. Before that, he only cared about what happened next and his uncle's result, and he didn't care about the death of the unharmed woman at all. But for the uncle, that's his wife, not the one who deserves to be cut without injury. Brother Liu understood his uncle's mood in an instant. If you become a relative in the future and are as harmonious as your parents, no matter who kills his wife, he will go crazy.

"... At that time, your father wanted to force your uncle back. Your uncle was already exhausted and could no longer fight against your father, so after a few moves, your father restrained him. At this time, your uncle suddenly knelt down on your father and begged him to let go of their father and son in his brotherhood..."

Brother Liu's heart sank happily. Although his mother hasn't said the result, he already understood how Ruoshi died...

"Your father and uncle's father died early, and the two brothers and the old mother depended on each other. Of course, 10 million of them were willing to let your uncle survive. At that time, he estimated that if the uncle would repent and add him to protect his life, the clan might be able to spare the uncle, but the child..." Geng Niang said this miserable past. , his face also became bloodless. "Your father thinks that child can't stay..."

"That child..." Brother Liu's heart became tighter and tighter.

"After your father said this to your uncle, your uncle suddenly kowtowed to your father and said, 'My son's name is Brother Ning, and I will ask you in the future.' After that, he grabbed your father's sword and inserted it into his own chest..."

"That's how uncle died..." Brother Liu's lips trembled, "Where's that child? That Brother Ning..." He thought, is that one of the Zhijiu Zhike brothers? It's my cousin.

"Dead, that child is also dead." Jingshi sat there and said.

"What? Killing parents is not enough, even a baby will not be let go! He is still a child. He doesn't know anything!" Brother Liu shouted angrily, "Dad, you are usually so good to Zhigu and them. Why don't you think about it? This child is also your nephew and uncle's bone blood!" Uncle, he exchanged his life for you to save his son, but you..."

"Bang!" Geng Niang raised her hand and slapped Brother Liu in the face. She pointed to Brother Liu with a pale face and scolded, "You little animal, what do you know! Do you know how much effort your father spent to save that child? His hair was half white that night, and you even said this to break his heart! That child is too small. He is too young. He is congenitally insufficient, and his life is on the line when he is born. Anyway, he can't save him... Poor child, I held him, and he became cold little by little, and he still grabbed my fingers with his hand until he died. My poor child..." She cried loudly, "He is only one month old. He just went...poor child..." Jingshi sat next to him and burst into tears.

"Mom, Dad..." Brother Liu regretted it. He obviously didn't know anything, but he blurted out such excessive words. His eyes turned red and he burst into tears.

"Brother Liu, when the child died, my mother's heart was broken. You are the only one who is my mother's baby. No matter what happens, let your mother die again." Geng Niang held Liu's brother in her arms, and the mother and son cried together. Jingshi opened his arms, held his wife in one hand, his son in the other hand, and held them tightly on his chest - this was a rare treasure in the world and the last sustenance of his life.

"Son, today's parents told you these past things that you don't want to mention, just to let you know that things are often not as simple as the parties think. Do you know that after the death of the eldest brother, it was found that the uninjured clan colluded with some snipers like incarnating as gophers to approach me and steal and eavesdrop on our family. Report, that all that has nothing to do with the eldest brother. Big brother, he is innocent, but he is still called a traitor and traitor by the clan! This is how the world is. No one thinks about why the eldest brother killed the injured people. They only remember that he married an injury-free woman and escaped from the family. Even if you call him a traitor, it is unfair to him. You are young and don't know how to weigh the importance and go wrong in one step. Even if you don't have the idea of harming, you can't stand it with a hat on your head! It's okay to deal with the nine-tailed heavenly fox this time. When you date foreigners in the future, you must discuss it with your parents first, understand?

Brother Liu lay on **, unable to sleep over and over, and his father's words have been echoing in his mind.

Over the years, he has thought that his uncle was a traitor like the people. Although he deeply sympathized with him, he was a traitor who collusion with injury-free, and everything was his own fault. After listening to his parents tell the truth about the matter, Brother Liu began to be unable to judge whether his uncle was wrong or not. He said he was wrong. He really didn't betray the clan. He just wanted to live a strange but self-choose life on the ground. Shouldn't everyone be free? Whenever someone in the clan wants to travel far away and build their own new home, won't they be blessed by the people? Why can't uncle? He said he was right, and he really had a dealings with the unharmed woman and married an uninjured woman. Is it guilty of dating unharmed but not betraying the wolves? Brother Liu can't figure out this problem.

Although he had been warned by his parents, Brother Liu was not worried about himself at all. Anyway, he would never go out with him without injury. On the contrary, it was his uncle's affairs that made him more concerned. He rolled around in the quilt and finally fell asleep with his tail.
