C1 Fox demon

For the past few days, people had been missing from the zhangjiazun.

There were even rumors saying that the fox demon had gone down the mountain to lure the young men of the village. They had been brought to some remote places to kill them in the dead of night to steal their hearts and eat their flesh.

This was yet another night, and the fox demon would probably come out to cause trouble again. This caused the impoverished scholar, Zhang Nan to feel a bit scared at the same time, but also a bit excited …

Although Zhang Nan was only a mere scholar, he had a kind heart. Since the fox demon was in chaos, he felt that they should eliminate evil and protect the villagers.

Phew...

Suddenly, a bone-piercing cold wind blew outside, causing Zhang Nan to shiver. He walked over to the old and broken window and looked outside.

Zhang Nan touched the back of his head in confusion. He was confused, why would there be such a cold and strange wind in this hot summer? It was so cold that it felt like it was going to pierce the bones. Could it be that the fox demon had come out to capture him?

Creak! Creak! Creak …

The weird wind was blowing harder and harder. The trees outside were rustling and the doors and windows were creaking.

The weak flame of the oil lamp was about to be extinguished, leaving only a clenching light blue flame. It seemed somewhat strange in this night.

At that time, a blinding white light suddenly flashed from the outside. From the direction of the light, it was Zhang Meng's house.

"Did something happen to Zhang Meng?" Zhang Nan thought and immediately went out to take a look.

But the strong wind kept on blowing, the moment Zhang Nan stepped out of the door, the wind blew even more fiercely, causing people to be unable to even open their eyes, let alone discredit Zhang Meng's house, under that helpless situation, Zhang Nan had no choice but to return.

However, he didn't see that white light that flashed from Zhang Meng's house, like a bolt of lightning, charge towards the east end of the village. It circled above a house for a while, before disappearing in the end …

That night, Zhang Nan almost did not sleep at all, he was worried that something had happened to Zhang Meng's house. As soon as the sun rose, the winds would suddenly stop, and Zhang Nan would immediately run over to Zhang Meng's house.

At this time, many people from the village ran over, only to see that Zhang Meng's house had long since collapsed. Everyone searched the ruins but couldn't find Zhang Meng, but they could only find a handful of white fur, which seemed to be left behind by the fox demon.

Last night, the wind blew incessantly, but it only blew down Zhang Meng's house. Obviously, the white light from last night was aimed at Zhang Meng, and the fox demon had taken Zhang Meng away.

There were already five people missing from the village. What should he do if he were to continue like this?

"What should we do? "Who's next?"

"I don't want to be taken away!"

"If they get taken away, they will lose their lives."

Everyone was discussing amongst themselves, each of them feeling insecure.

"We can't just sit and wait for death, we have to capture the fox demon, who's willing to join me?" At this moment, Hunter Zhang stood up, calling for everyone to take the initiative.

zhangjiazun has always been famous for its valiant folk style, with a hunter taking the lead, booing and jeering, echoing what was said, suddenly, twenty to thirty people gathered at Zhang Hu's place, divided into two teams, one group was led by Zhang Hu, the other was led by Zhang Bao, and the two set out from the east and west sides of the village to capture the fox demon.

Catching the fox demon was a rare opportunity, so Zhang Nan naturally joined in, and followed Hunter Zhang to the east side of the village.

However, after searching around the village for an entire day, they still could not find any traces of fox demon. On the other hand, a torrential downpour came from the middle of the journey, so they had no choice but to run back.

"The sky was still clear just a moment ago, why did it suddenly start raining?" Zhang Nan became suspicious in his heart. As he was running, he just happened to pass by a big house.

The mansion was a four-sided courtyard. It was a newly moved household in the village. The owner of the house had a young lady named Hu Meimian. Those who saw her said that she was a peerless beauty who looked like a fairy.

Zhang Nan had long heard of Fox Fairy's beauty, it was just that she did not have the chance to see it, she did not expect to be able to run all the way to the Hu family residence to avoid the rain.

Zhang Nan ran to the front of the house, wanting to knock on the door to avoid the rain, to see if he could see the young miss of the Hu family.

"A lamp illuminating the night, a wisp of green robe looks forward to the imperial court; Zhang Shu Sheng, I hope you can recognize the fox demon for life with your name; my daughter is beautiful in her room, I hope you can help me …"

The voice was beautiful and pleasant to hear, but it was also somewhat mournful and desolate. In the pouring rain, Zhang Nan could not help but think of himself, the voice was actually talking about his name in the imperial court.

However, the latter sentence was too hard for him to understand.

"Customer, please come in!" Right at this moment, the doors to the house suddenly opened. An old man dressed in plain clothes, whose age could no longer be determined, opened the doors to the house, and bowed deeply towards Zhang Nan. He was the Hu family's housekeeper, Uncle Fu.

"Sorry for the trouble!" Zhang Nan did not hold back and followed Uncle Fu into the house. However, he was curious how Uncle Fu knew he was standing at the door.

It was just that the rain was too heavy, Zhang Nan did not have time to think about it.

Boom …

Just as he stepped through the doorstep, a sudden clap of thunder came from the sky, causing Zhang Nan to shiver in fear.

But just as he took two steps, a gust of cold wind blew in from the corridor far away, causing goosebumps to rise all over Zhang Nan's body. He could not help but think of the strange wind from last night.

Could it be that the fox demon is inside?

Zhang Nan shook his head and dismissed the question. The fox demon s were all hidden in the deep mountains, why would they come to the Hu family mansion?

"Guest, please take a seat. I'll bring you a bowl of ginger tea to warm your body." With that, Uncle Fu turned around and left the hall.

Zhang Nan looked around the hall and could not help but sigh. Indeed, it was everyone's house, and compared to his grass hall, there was a difference of heaven and earth.

"Long lamp, shine at night, a wisp of green robe looks forward to the imperial court …" But just at this moment, that beautiful and desolate voice sounded again, attracting Zhang Nan's attention.

After exiting the living room, Zhang Nan walked to the side of a room where the beautiful and sad song came from.

The door was not closed, so Zhang Nan walked in with light steps. Through the layer of transparent cloth, he coincidentally saw a beautiful girl bathing inside the room.

Her skin was as red as rouge, eyebrows like willow leaves, and head as red as a pill. Seeing that, Zhang Nan's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and it was as the villagers had said, she was simply a peerless beauty.

"Who?"

Just as Zhang Nan was immersed in his thoughts, the young lady suddenly asked in a panic. Before Zhang Nan could react, she had already wrapped herself up in a muslin and walked out.

"Miss, this one is Zhang Nan, and is being attracted by your beautiful singing voice, I am too presumptuous, I hope you do not blame me." Zhang Nan bowed deeply, feeling extremely ashamed, he had wasted his time reading the etiquette.

The young girl circled around Zhang Nan, and carefully sized him up. She did not speak and suddenly burst into laughter, making Zhang Nan not understand what she meant, but he did not dare speak.

"You are very gentle, unlike the others." The young girl opened her mouth and spoke. Her voice was sweet with a hint of a smile.

"You are the young miss of the Hu family, Fox Fairy?" Zhang Nan slowly raised his head, and just as he looked at Fox Fairy, he hurriedly lowered his head again, afraid that he would be disrespectful.

"You've heard of me?" Fox Fairy's eyes lit up.

"I have heard that the villagers say that you are as beautiful as a flower and an exceptional beauty. I also came here because of my name."

"Miss?" Before Zhang Nan could finish his sentence, Uncle Fu walked in from outside and looked at Zhang Nan in anger: "You good student Zhang, how can you be so rude and ruin my Young Miss's reputation?"
