Chapter 227 Trading
It was morning and a ship was coming back from the harbor in the distance, with huge sea fish lying on the deck.
A humanoid fox with furry ears jumped down pulling a rope and tied the boat to the dock. Immediately, other foxes that had been waiting there came up and carried the fish down.
When the fish were laid out in a row on the dam near the port, a big fox would immediately come forward with a knife and cut the fish into pieces.
There were already little foxes queuing there, with a long row behind each stone pillar.
When they started to distribute the meat, they went forward one by one, just like they had distributed the fruit before.
Wei Wenxin suddenly realized, no wonder he was so skilled before.
When the meat was distributed, basically every fox got a piece as big as a fist.
There are so many foxes in Zhaoyao Mountain. It is obviously not possible for them to survive by relying solely on wild animals in the mountains or the harvest from the fields.
As for those fat chickens, they have to be sold and cannot be used for daily consumption.
Wei Wenxin had been curious before about how they survived, and now he finally understood.
If you rely on the mountains, you will eat the mountains; if you rely on the sea, you will eat the sea.
Wei Wenxin held the little fox in her arms and looked over there, but Ling Cang got angry before he could say anything.
"Roar--"
Its body suddenly grew larger, and its height became the same as Wei Wenxin's. It raised its neck and roared!
Wei Wenxin had just told it a few days ago that he would not raise other spiritual beasts in the future. This little fox wanted to get close to it, and it was the first to disagree!
The parents of the only child want to have a second child, but the eldest child is not happy!
Wei Wenxin was not sure whether fox was in Bai Ze’s diet.
But I don't think animals are so harmonious with each other.
As soon as Ling Cang roared, a large group of foxes immediately surrounded him.
Wei Wenxin saw that the situation was not right, so he touched Ling Cang's head, smiled slightly, and handed the little fox to Hu Sanlian beside him.
Hu Sanlian has a high level of cultivation and seniority. He has a lot of say in the fox clan and is quite friendly to humans. Wei Wenxin has dealt with him the most. If he wants to escape safely at this time, he must find a way to get out of here from him.
Hu Sanlian took the little fox, touched its smooth back, squinted his eyes and said nothing.
How could it be happy if its own kid dislikes home and wants to go with a stranger?
In particular, the tribe is very fond of this kid, and as soon as he comes back, all kinds of resources are available to him.
To be honest, it's not even that nice to its own grandson!
Wei Wenxin didn't dare to escalate the conflict. She looked around with a smile and raised her voice slightly:
"Good boy, you should practice hard at home and strive to become a domineering demon as soon as possible. Your great aunt is going to a dangerous place, and it is really inconvenient to take you with her."
It said this just to please the human being.
Let the other little foxes know that this beauty also has someone to rely on, so don’t bully her too harshly.
As for the rest, the fox elders will take care of it.
It doesn't make sense for her, an unfortunate child passing by, to worry about how to raise other people's children.
It's so hard to get a kid with such great talents. If you don't teach him well and he goes astray, you can't blame others.
Seeing that Wei Wenxin was unwilling to accept it, the little fox was afraid that the elders would be dissatisfied with it, so it did not dare to make trouble anymore. It just wiped its tears reluctantly and asked her for a promise:
"Then when will you come back to see me?"
The promises made in the world of immortal cultivation involve cause and effect and are not just made casually.
If you have time, it wouldn't be a big deal to come and take a look at it when you pass by, but the problem is that this is Zhaoyao Mountain, outsiders can't enter!
Although she now has a hairpin made of Mi Gu branches and does not have to worry about the illusion arrays outside, she is not the kind of person who is rude and does not allow entry.
Besides, she doesn't plan to come here often!
To be honest, she was not on good terms with the Tianfu Sect, and the Hehuan Sect had a bad reputation. As for the Nanhai Sect next door, the Yun and Hai families had a blood feud with her.
It’s better to have less trouble than more…
Wei Wenxin looked at Hu Sanlian with difficulty.
She believed that the old fox could understand what she meant. However, the fox did not answer as she expected. Instead, it shook its sleeves, took out a small storage bag and handed it to her:
"Good boy, this is a local specialty from your hometown. It's not easy to be away from home, so remember to come home often."
It is not difficult to understand why it does this.
Since Wei Wenxin has the Mi Gu branch in his hand, he can only make friends with him and not offend him.
The more both sides interact with each other, the deeper their feelings will naturally become.
Another thing is that Wei Wenxin has such an identity. If he can make friends with the fox, next time he encounters a fox asking for help, he will probably not stand idly by like he did before.
By then, things like this can be avoided.
Wei Wenxin took a quick look with his spiritual sense and saw a pile of round gems inside. His breathing paused.
The third brother made jewelry and bought these things all year round. He always complained to her that the quality was not good, and said that the good stuff was all in Zhaoyao Mountain. However, those foxes rarely took them out to sell, so the price was always high...
Wei Wenxin also shook his sleeves, took out a moon-white storage bag, and stuffed it into the little fox's arms.
"I'll leave you some pocket money. Just buy whatever you need. Hmm? Practice hard. When you become stronger, you won't be afraid of anything. After all, no matter how much your elders love you, they can't stay by your side all day long. Do you understand?"
She said this from the bottom of her heart.
Her childhood experiences were actually quite similar to those of this little fox.
No matter how caring our elders are, won’t we still be bullied behind the scenes?
The only way to solve the problem is to make yourself stronger.
"I'll come back to see you when I'm free, okay?"
Wei Wenxin didn't want to owe anyone a favor, but he really wanted the bag of gems, so he simply took out a large amount of spirit stones and used them as a purchase.
When he said he would come back to watch it, he was just saying he had time.
But considering her busy schedule, when will she have time?
The old fox took a quick look with his spiritual sense and saw that there were several million spirit stones in the storage bag. He understood what she meant and did not force it.
The little fox didn't dare to make trouble anymore after getting so many spirit stones.
The atmosphere suddenly became harmonious, and no one exposed her fake identity.
Wei Wenxin put away his things, turned over and sat on Lingcang's back, touched its head, and signaled it to set off.
Seeing that she rejected the stinky fox without hesitation, Ling Cang was in a good mood. He flapped his wings and flew straight into the sky.
Even after everyone had gone a long way, the little fox was still craning his neck to look.
Previously, it thought Wei Wenxin was a vicious person, but after spending a long time with him, it discovered that he was a rare kind person.
She looks fierce, but actually she just has principles. As long as you follow her rules, she will be very kind to others...
Hu San patted its head lovingly and sighed, "You must practice well, otherwise, with your life span, you may not be able to see her again."
Even though the demon race has a longer lifespan, they will still die of old age if their cultivation is not sufficient.
The little fox wanted to climb up the tree but failed. He was very embarrassed now. When the elder said something to him, he lowered his head, fearing that he would be bullied by other foxes.
Thinking of what Wei Wenxin had said to her, she felt that it made sense.
I couldn't help but think about it over and over again.
The strong prey on the weak, and no one understands it better than this beast, who was born as a mountain beast.
"Put your things away and don't tell anyone. Go!"
Hu Sanlian did not take the spiritual stones away. He pushed them away with his hand.
Wei Wenxin rode Bai Ze straight into the boundless sea, and for a moment he felt that the sky was high and the earth was vast.
But after walking for only a few dozen miles and seeing that there was no one around, she took out a small boat, motioned Ling Cang to change into the size of a kitten, and said mysteriously:
"It's a rare opportunity to come to the Boundless Sea, so we might as well take a look around and see if we can find a few mines."
I have learned how to find veins and minerals from my great-grandmaster Minglu for many years, but I have never practiced it on my own. Now that I have come here, I have to give it a try.
