Lan Ke Qi Yuan Chapter 45: The wild fox is homesick

The peace of life was not broken by the addition of an injured fox. Recuperating within the confines of Ju'an Xiaoge, the red fox recovered very quickly.

The only thing that gave Ji Yuan some trouble was preparing the medicine, and after the fox's injury improved significantly, he had to eat a chicken or live duck every day.

At first, Ji Yuan even cooked it, but considering that it might have to be released into the wild, the fox could not lose its wild nature, so he later bought live chickens and ducks and put them in the backyard for the fox to catch on his own.

Every afternoon in the backyard of Ju'an Xiaoge, there is a chicken flying and a fox dancing. Sometimes there are lessons in the private school, and Xiao Yinqing will happily participate in them.

Unfortunately, as the saying goes, all feasts come to an end, Ji Yuan has never thought of keeping a red fox as a pet.

After all, it was a spirit fox, not an ordinary domestic dog. Many times during the day and night, Ji Yuan saw the red fox looking at the looming Niokui Mountain.

For a fox who is accustomed to the freedom of the mountains, no matter how good Ju'an Xiaoge is, bound by various rules, it will definitely not be able to compare with the vast Niokui Mountain in his heart.

. . .

On April 23rd, in the dead of night, Red Fox walked out of the side room and came to the small courtyard.

The night sky was bright tonight. The fox walked to the jujube tree, climbed up the tree with a sprint, and reached a branch. Then he trotted along the branch for a while and then jumped up to a side house with ease. top.

Sitting quietly on the roof, looking at the outline of the mountains in the northwest, his tail wagging behind him, he sat without moving for most of an hour.

“Want to go back?”

A faint voice sounded, and Leng Buding scared Red Fox so much that he jumped up. Only then did he realize that Ji Yuan was already standing on the roof at some point.

"The moon, the stars, the black magpie flying south! You are a living creature of the mountains, there is no need to be locked up in the city. I will send you home tomorrow!"

"Woo..."

Red Fox is a little reluctant to give up now, not only for people but also for the cultivation environment of Ju'an Xiaoge. You must know that every day when Ji Yuan performs the transformation of heaven and earth, there must be a gathering of spiritual energy in a short period of time. Compared with it in the mountains Much stronger.

Seeing the fox shrinking, Ji Yuan seemed to be able to feel its thoughts and also smiled.

"You can't be greedy as a human being, and the same goes for being a fox or a demon. There is a big difference between the freedom I have in calculating fate and the freedom you, a little fox, have. Compared to here, I think you still long for the mountains and wilderness now. ”

Ji Yuan had already noticed that compared to a well-educated monster like Lu Shanjun, this red fox had obviously only recently awakened its intelligence. Its wildness was greater than its human nature, and it could not be contained in a small yard.

"With giving and taking, everything goes smoothly for me, let alone you?"

After saying this, Ji Yuan floated down from the roof like a willow leaf and went into the room to sleep.

. . .

At nearly noon on the second day, the sun was shining brightly.

Ji Yuan strolled through the city and came to Ning'an School, not far from the county government office.

The school occupies an area of ​​about one acre and is surrounded by a wall. In the courtyard is a two-story attic with white walls and black tiles, bamboos and views. The environment is very good. It can also be seen that the relationship between the Ning'an County government and the county squires The importance of the school.

I came here just to pick up little Yin Qing. This child likes Red Fox very much. Although the latter dislikes him, Ji Yuan feels that when the fox returns to the mountain, he should take little Yin Qing with him. If Yin Zhaoxian agrees, Just take Xiao Yinqing for an outing.

"Filial piety and brotherhood are the first, followed by sincerity and trust. Don't be slow or lazy when your parents call for orders. Parents teach you, listen carefully and obey..."

Already some distance away, the sound of schoolchildren reciting in unison reached Ji Yuan's ears amid the noise.

This is not the ancient China that Ji Yuan knew in his previous life, but the cultural background is very similar. Even some literary books are different, but the connotation of education is the same Chinese thought, and the content is quite similar.

There are already many people waiting outside in front of the school. Most of them are servants from wealthy families, preparing to pick up their young masters who are taking lessons at noon to go home for lunch. The other students either go home by themselves or bring lunch. .

Children who can attend this school will not have poor family conditions, but there are still differences.

Ji Yuan picked the time very accurately. When he got closer, the sound of reading loudly in the school had stopped. Students from the school came out one after another and passed by Ji Yuan who was walking towards the school. Some students even whispered about the reasons for their strange eyes.

"Mr. Ji!!"

Yin Qing, who was coming out with Yin Zhaoxian, shouted when he saw Ji Yuan, and Yin Zhaoxian and Ji Yuan also cupped their hands with each other.

"Master Yin, Mr. Ji wants to release the injured red fox back into the mountains. He wants Xiao Yinqing to accompany him. He will be back in half a day. I wonder what Master Yin wants?"

Reintroduction?

Yin Zhaoxian has also seen that fox. He is very spiritual. Sometimes he really feels like he has become a spirit. He is not worried about what will happen to his son if he goes out with Ji Yuan. They have known each other for nearly three months. Ji Yuan’s character and unfathomable The ability is still trustworthy, but Yin is also a little itchy.

But there is no other way. As a master of a school, Yin Zhaoxian cannot leave his students and go out casually.

"Since Mr. Ji has spoken, there is no problem!"

"Great!!"

At this moment, Yin Qing almost jumped up with joy when he heard Yin Zhaoxian's agreement.

Although Yin Qing was very excited when she heard Ji Yuan's words, she resisted the temptation to dress too obediently, as her father would just say "no" and that would be it.

Seeing his son like this, Yin Zhaoxian also smiled and shook his head. In the past, he always felt that Yin Qing was too out-of-the-box and not stable enough. After hearing Ji Yuan say that little Yin Qing was very spiritual several times, he became more tolerant of his son's innocence. .

. . .

Next to the school, outside the county government office, the magistrate of Ning'an County was leading three people out of the government office. There was a carriage parked at the door.

The county magistrate is a thin, middle-aged man with a short beard. He is not wearing official uniform at the moment. He is just wearing a long gown and a Confucian crown. There are two people behind him, both wearing silk clothes. Those who are slightly fat wear broad robes.

"I have ordered people to prepare wine and food in the outer building of the temple. Please get in the carriage!"

"Okay, here you go, Mr. County Magistrate!"

“Whatever you say, say whatever you say!”

While the county magistrate was being polite to the fat man, he happened to see the fate of Yuan Chu and Yin Zhaoxian.

As the master of the strange news in the county some time ago, the county magistrate also recognized Ji Yuan. In addition, the other party had lived in Ju'an Xiaoge for a long time, so he was even more impressed. At this moment, he couldn't help but take a second look.

"What are you looking at, Lord County Magistrate? Who are these two people?"

The slightly fat man in broad robes also followed the county magistrate's eyes and saw a scene outside the school not far away.

"Oh, it's nothing. The one in the white shirt is Master Yin from the school in this county. He is quite knowledgeable. The one in the green shirt is a strange and elegant scholar in this county."

The slightly fat man turned his head towards the county magistrate.

"Strange man?"

The county magistrate nodded and said:

"Strange man!"

Then the county magistrate smiled and stroked his beard again, briefly describing the red fox's worship to the man in the broad robe, which made the three of them quite amused.

"The red fox begs for help, but the vicious dog retreats after hearing the sound? Such a thing can happen!"

"Hahaha, there are rumors in the market. They may be true or false and must be exaggerated. However, the county magistrate also said that Ji Yuan is an extraordinary person."

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw the entrance of the school not far away. Ji Yuan turned to look at them, but only glanced away and led Yin Qing away.

The county magistrate was stunned for about a breath, and then he thought of something else.

"Please, Master Wei, let's go to the outer building of the temple!"

"Okay, Mr. County Magistrate, please come first!"
