The Heartless Mage Chapter 193: Winter
Wuxin didn't want to invite the white fox into the tent, for fear of scaring Su Tao, even if he couldn't scare Su Tao, in case the white fox leaked his details, he wouldn't be able to explain to Su Tao. However, just as he was thinking about it, a white paw raised the curtain, and the white fox had already stretched out his head and appeared.
A pair of red eyes rolled around, and the white fox could see the pattern inside the tent. In the center of the tent is a charcoal fire, and an iron kettle is hung above the charcoal fire. Wuxin and a little girl were sitting on the left and right of the fire, respectively, holding a glass of water. The little girl was wearing a bloated padded jacket and cotton pants and was looking at her with her mouth open.
Although in the eyes of the white fox, Su Tao is just a worthless little girl, but now people have to bow their heads under the low eaves. Li Shu thoughtfully nodded to Su Tao, then she turned to Wu Xin and politely asked, "Can I come in?"
Wuxin looked at the white fox, and saw that in order to protect her nose, she ingeniously used a rhubarb leaf to fold a triangular cap to fasten her nose, and poke several holes in the yellow leaf so that she could stretch her beard. Judging from the layer of hoarfrost on the surface of the yellow leaves, she must have been running a lot just now.
Suddenly glanced at Su Tao, Wuxin was about to reject the white fox's request. However, the white fox was impatient, and seeing Wuxin staring at her without saying a word, she couldn't bear it for a while, and she simply squeezed into the tent by shaking her head. Sitting by the fire like a big white dog, she twisted her tail and threw a wink at Wuxin: "I want to get my inner alchemy back."
Inadvertently put one hand in his pocket, clutching a large round bead. As soon as the white fox appeared, the big round bead seemed to sense something, and the temperature jumped up in his palm. After pondering, he peeked at Su Tao again, and found that Su Tao's mouth hadn't been closed since the white fox made a sound. Staring straight at the big white fox, her expression is very similar to sleepwalking.
Wuxin is full of flaws and has a guilty conscience to be a thief, so that he is silent, and the more he thinks about it, the more panic he becomes. And the white fox didn't have the good temper to accompany him in meditation. Seeing his eyes turn east and west, and his lips tightly pursed into a line, she couldn't help but plunge into Wuxin's arms and began to act like a spoiled child on a large scale: "Wuxin No heart, no heart, give it to me, give it to me!"
Wuxin hurriedly leaned back: "Dabai, gentleman speaks without action, sit down for me!"
The white fox is very sensible, and immediately stood up and sat firmly: "Wuxin, as long as you are willing to return the inner alchemy to me, I will admit that it was my fault two hundred years ago, I-"
Inadvertently hearing this, I was so frightened that my eyes almost popped out of their sockets. With lightning-like action, he squeezed the fox's mouth in front of him. He hurriedly reprimanded: "Don't mention the past. It's easy to want an inner alchemy, but I have the conditions."
The white fox couldn't open its mouth, and squeezed out a "chirp" from its nostrils, indicating that he was willing to listen.
Wuxin said: "First, you are not allowed to harass me again, you and I are cut off from me, and the original thing is not allowed to be mentioned again!"
The white fox is not a lover at all. The reason why he is entangled with Wuxin is nothing more than a fart in the woods, wanting to have some fun. Hearing Wuxin's condition, she nodded quickly, and her long beard rubbed back and forth in Wuxin's palm.
Wuxin immediately raised two fingers: "Second, the inner alchemy can't be given to you for nothing, you have to exchange it for food."
The voice fell, and he let go of the fox's mouth in his hand. The white fox opened its mouth and moved its lower jaw, and then asked Wuxin: "Where do I go to get food? I don't eat food!"
Inadvertently raised his head: "I don't care, you must have a way anyway."
After saying this, he glanced at Su Tao again and found that the other party still had his mouth open and his eyes were straight; while the white fox licked his lips, obviously still wanting to bargain. Before the white fox could speak, Wuxin got up and hugged the white fox. With a loud shout of strength in his arms, he picked up the white fox like a big wolf, and bent down and got out of the tent.
There was light snow outside the tent, and the white fox fell to the ground. He raised his head and asked Wuxin: "Who is the girl in the tent?"
Wuxin replied in a low voice: "My daughter."
The white fox opened his mouth in surprise: "Wow! You can still give birth—"
Inadvertently slapped her tirade with a slap: "You should go back to the nest too, it's hard to go when the snow is heavy. Remember, talk is good, exchange food for inner elixir. You dare to be rude Lie to me, and I'll play against you. You know I'm also very good at fooling around, and if I do, you can't rely on me."
The white fox remembered that he was very difficult to deal with, but he didn't expect that he was still so difficult to talk about, and he was so unforgiving, and even **** his inner alchemy. Facing Wuxin, she bared her teeth. She wanted to know that the person in charge of the current situation was Junjie. She had lived for hundreds of years. She had no choice but to turn her claws into the forest for the time being.
Wuxin finally sent the white fox away, and he was relieved that he was frightened. He turned around and got back into the tent, only to see Su Tao still opening his mouth with straight eyebrows.
Inadvertently approached her, stretched out her hand and pushed her chin: "Why are you stunned?"
Su Tao blinked her eyes like she was just waking up from a dream: "Wuxin, did a white fox just come to the house... and can speak human words?"
Wuxin nodded solemnly: "That's right. It's not unusual for a fox to say something human."
Su Tao continued to blink her eyes, feeling like she was in a dream: "Fox...speaking human words..."
Inadvertently stroking her hair: "In the deep mountains and old forests, there are all kinds of ghosts and spirits. The big fox can speak human language, isn't it interesting?"
Su Tao looked up at him: "Do the foxes here speak human words?"
Wuxin lowered his head and smiled: "No, it has to be a fox."
Su Tao asked again: "What kind of fox can become a sperm?"
Wuxin thought for a moment, then replied: "Tao Tao, the foxes that become fine are all old foxes who love to learn. You think it's not easy for a fox to learn to speak human language and to learn spells at the same time. ?"
Su Tao thought about what he meant, but nodded in agreement: "Well, it's hard enough."
Wuxin coaxed her patiently: "So, there is nothing to be afraid of, the fox is just a little bit smarter than the average fox."
Su Tao is young after all. After listening to Wuxin's words, the more she thought about it, the more reasonable she became. Finally, when she lay down on Wuxin's arm, she asked enthusiastically, "Wuxin, can a person become a genius? ?"
Wuxin was stopped by her question: "Human? I don't know, I've never seen a person."
Su Tao turned her back to him and fiddled with his fingers: "I want to be a genius - if I have magic, I won't be afraid of anyone."
Wuxin was afraid that she would think something wrong, and said quickly: "Forget it. Even if there is a spell for you to learn, you will be a hundred years old when you learn it. By then, you will become old and you will want to find someone to bully you. You can't find it."
After Su Tao heard this, she still felt very reasonable. The words came out of Wuxin's mouth, whatever they said was right.
After three days like this, heavy snow really sealed the mountain, everyone in the village breathed a sigh of relief and began to prepare for the New Year. No matter how turbulent the days are, the big festivals of the year still cannot be scribbled perfunctorily. Wuxin and Xiaoquan ran long distances over the mountains and found a black market in the nearest commune. Xiaoquan used food to change a piece of floral cloth for his sister—she lived to be thirteen years old and had not worn a single bright dress. Wuxin replaced sugar and wine with leather. The two embarked on the return journey with the harvest. They did not dare to stop when they were exhausted on the road, because once they stopped, they would easily change from exhaustion to freezing to death.
After a lot of hard work, Xiaoquan went to present treasures to her sister, but said she had no intention of getting into the tent, lying motionless on the animal skin mattress, unable to breathe. Su Tao waited for him at home for two nights a day, with only a big owl for company. Looking eager to see him back, she immediately twisted a towel like a little daughter-in-law, wiped Wuxin's face and face, and squatted on the ground to take off his ice-like cotton-padded shoes for him.
Wuxin wore a pair of ragged socks, and his toes touched the warm air in the tent, causing him to have a comfortable cold fight, and then he groaned again. Shrinking in the big padded jacket like a shell, he closed his eyes and rubbed his face on the mattress slowly—this trip was too hard, and he subconsciously wanted to find someone to act like a spoiled child.
A small hot hand caressed the back of his head, and the temperature warmed his cold scalp through a layer of short hair. He turned his head to look up and saw Su Tao kneeling on the ground, one hand resting on the edge of the mattress, the other touching his head. Wuxin looked at her, she also looked at Wuxin, her face was smoky and dirty, but her eyes were black and white and very clean, staring at him with a smile and curiosity.
Wu Xin suddenly felt embarrassed, she shrank her head to her neckline like a turtle, closed her eyes and pursed her lips and smiled, and raised her hands on both sides to cover her face as much as possible.
Su Tao laughed out loud, because she always thought Wuxin was omnipotent, but she didn't expect him to be tired as a child at the moment.
After Wuxin took a breath, he got up and took off his padded jacket and trousers. The thick jacket and trousers hide the cold air, and it is colder than wearing it. Sitting by the fire pit drinking hot sugar water, he took out a small plastic hairpin from his padded jacket pocket, in the shape of a flat black bow. Su Tao immediately used it to pick up the broken hair hanging from her forehead, and broke off a small piece of cake to feed Bai Liuli. Bai Liuli followed Wuxin's rush to and fro, day and night, lying lazily on the animal skin bed at the moment, he glanced at the cake, thought the food was not good, closed his mouth tightly, and waited for tomorrow morning with confidence Eat a big meal. However, just after staying up until evening, he broke his fast - the white fox came.
The white fox brought a big red fox, the two foxes were all dressed up like donkeys, and had a sturdy big jacket on their backs. As the saying goes, once it's born twice, the white fox didn't knock on the curtain this time, and sneaked in. Greeting Wuxin and Su Tao, she and the red fox shook their heads and shook their tails, and the shackles on their backs immediately fell to the ground along their tails. Turning around, he took a red paper bag from the shackle and sent it to Su Tao. The white fox smiled humbly: "Little girl, take it and buy some candy."
Inadvertently, I hurriedly picked up the red paper bag, opened it and looked inward, and saw that it contained neatly a small stack of banknotes, all of which were one dime, and they added up to two dollars. Because the white fox is usually too rude, once he is sensible, he is flattered by Wuxin: "Yo, Dabai, you are too generous. She is a child, and it is enough to give her thirty cents and fifty cents, why should you pay special attention to her? A red envelope?" Then he patted Su Tao's back: "Thank you."
Facing this situation, Su Tao felt fresh and dead, and at the same time bowed without thinking: "Thank you fox."
Inadvertently counted the food in the casket as ransom, and was very satisfied with what the white fox did. Taking advantage of the fact that the white fox is now more honest, he took out the inner pill, wanting to send her away as soon as possible, lest she get carried away and talk nonsense to Su Tao. When the white fox saw Neidan in Wuxin's palm, his red eyes immediately lit up. She opened her mouth and took a deep breath, Neidan automatically flew into the air with her breath, and a bright red mist oozes out from the surface. The fog wrapped the inner alchemy and moved slowly until it entered the big mouth of the white fox. When it moved to the mouth of the throat, the white fox closed his teeth with a "click", then stretched his neck and completely swallowed the inner elixir. The red mist lingering between her mouth and nose slowly dissipated, she did some breathing again, and at the end she suddenly opened her mouth and laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha, I finally have confidence again!"
Wuxin gave her a hug: "Congratulations, congratulations, I'm also very happy to see you regained your confidence. I originally wanted to invite you to a late-night snack, but the snow is thick outside and the road is not easy to walk, so we will meet you in the future. , I won't leave you today."
The white fox turned his head and said, "Humph! It's rare for you to eat your food when you are an aunt? The aunt met you this year, which is a disadvantage of fleeting time. You can take your ugly girl to eat, and the aunt will feed the dog once! Fuck, fuck, weasel cubs, a litter is not as good as a litter."
When the voice fell, she flicked her tail and walked out with the red fox. Wuxin smiled and didn't dare to stop her, but Su Tao held the red envelope and felt like she and Wuxin were being scolded by the white fox, but seeing Wuxin's hilarious smile and indifference, she also relaxed and didn't put the white fox's words in her mind. . Inside there are white flour, fruit candies, and military cans with fang marks. Wuxin opened a can with a knife on the spot, which was full of braised beef. Bai Liuli poked out her round head from the hem of his padded jacket. She was stunned for a while with her black bean eyes open, then she reacted, and immediately opened her mouth up like a scoop. Su Tao squeezed a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth. He closed his mouth and swallowed intently.
Wuxin looked down at him and saw that he stretched out the elder straight up, forming a very indecent image with himself. Fortunately, Su Tao is ignorant and is still concentrating on feeding the snake. He quietly stretched out **** to clamp Bai Liuli, he wanted to drag the other party down, not to eat so vigorously with a round head. However, Bai Liuli was chewing vigorously, and after being disturbed by him, she became impatient and violently twisted on the spot.
