Su Ziji saw this scene, couldn't help but go over, stretched out his hand and pushed its little paw.

"You want to come in?"

"... chirp!" Little Fox cupped his hands.

Su Ziji thought for a moment, "Then come in."

The next moment, Bai Ying rushed in.

"Are you injured?" Looking at the injuries all over the white fox that jumped in, there was a burn mark on the back from Heavenly Fire, the flesh was turned over, and there was a burning smell. Su Ziji frowned, "I'll borrow something to bandage you."

"... chirp!" As soon as he took a step forward, he was grabbed by the hem of his clothes. His watery eyes were full of disapproval.

"You don't need me to go?" Su Ziji asked tentatively.

"Chirp!" it cried softly.

"Then I'll get you some water and food. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about you. You can stay in my room for the time being." He stroked Fox's head. Su Ziji felt no different from petting a cat, Wen Yan said.

This time Little Fox didn't stop it.

Su Ziji went out quickly, and when he came back, he had a bowl of hot water and two meatloaf.

"Little one?" Fox, Su Ziji called tentatively when they returned to the cabin room, but there was no one there.

There was movement under the bed, and a little head popped out. Under the candlelight, don't look at its scars, just look at its Fox face. It was a very beautiful Fox face.

Su Ziji breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were gone, but luckily you're not. There are a lot of bad people outside. Come on, these are yours, these are mine."

Su Ziji smiled and broke a meat pie into pieces, wrapped it in oil paper, placed it on the ground, and put the hot water to one side, signaling Little Fox to eat it.

Little Fox looked down, looked at him again, nodded his thanks, and only drank some water.

Su Ziji likes the little guy's spirituality and suspects that he is a spirit Fox.

"If that's the case, it's not easy to control it too much. You just need to take it in first."

"When he was discovered, he said he was my pet, and no one said not to take Fox with him." Just as Su Ziji smiled and watched Fox drink water, not far from Fucheng, Cao Yiyan turned over and dismounted.

As soon as he got off the horse, the horse neighed, fell to its knees and foamed at the mouth, showing that it was already dying.

There were also weeping willows on the shore of the lake, and waterfowl were chasing them with flapping wings, but Cao Yiyan had no spirit of admiration at all. He staggered along the shore for a few steps, and became more and more dizzy. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

After vomiting the blood, I woke up a little and realized that I was on the north bank of Coiling Dragon Lake, which was actually a prefectural city. It was dark all around, and Cao Yiyan looked quite ugly.

"The aura left on Fox disappeared in an instant."

"What a cunning Fox! You split up your troops and ran away. I really thought you could escape capture this way. I will definitely eradicate you one by one!"

Cao Yiyan hated him so much that he naturally didn't want to let anyone go. Unfortunately, the escaped Fox was so cunning that he not only split up his forces and fled, but there was also a Little Fox that deliberately delayed his steps.

Last time, the distance was less than half a mile, and I was able to use Thunder Method to bombard Monster. As a result, I rushed to the place where there were traces of thunder and fire, and found that it had escaped again.

This made Cao Yiyan even more angry. He was already holding a bad breath in his heart, and now he vowed to crush it to ashes.

"Ahead is Fucheng. Could it be that this evil barrier is using its popularity to cover up its evil spirit?"

"However, even if I have the popularity to cover it up, it is impossible to eliminate my Thunder Method brand at once."

"The only possibility is that there is a magic weapon hidden in it."

It is known that Hu Family used his popularity to escape the pursuit of the alchemist, so Cao Yiyan naturally does not want them to continue to roam freely. Although he is not sure whether the other Fox Tribe also escaped into the city, Little Fox, who was confused by the tracking technique in the end, must have entered the city.

As long as you catch this one and follow the clues, I don't believe that other Fox can escape!

Just thinking about it, I want to cast a spell.

"Ouch! Isn't this Cao True Person?"

A woman's voice suddenly came from the front, interrupting the spell. Cao Yiyan looked at it, his face darkened, but he smiled, "It turns out to be Mother Qian, why are you here? Manchun House is not doing business?"

Qian Yun twisted his waist with a flattering smile on his face and said, "The real person hasn't been here for a long time. I thought I forgot our Manchun House. I opened a branch here. I see that you look a little bad. Are you drunk? Come to my branch to rest and go to the city tomorrow!"

Despite the flattering smile on Qian Yun's face, he is actually the host of Gray-Clad Guard's important base in Fucheng. Cao Yiyan didn't want to say anything more at the moment, so he said, "No need, I'll come visit you again when I have time!"

"Cao True Person, I advise you to obey and stay out of the city all night!" At this time, someone stood up and said.

Cao Yiyan just looked at it and his eyebrows furrowed.

The person who asked the question was not an ordinary person. If Su Ziji was present, he would definitely recognize this young man of medium build. He was the one who saved Examination Student last time. He was holding a folding fan and smiling. He was very amiable, but there was a faint evil aura about him. Although he was far away, this aura could not be concealed. He must be a member of the officialdom, or a noble person that the alchemists were afraid of.

Coupled with Fucheng's hidden anger, Cao Yiyan put away his scornful heart and said, "I am Mist Mountain Abbey Cao Yiyan, in Dao Register Office also used his name to lead Chonghe Hall Left Azure-Void Lang (Principal Eighth Rank) and hunt down one Monster. Please get out of the way quickly."

"Cao True Person."

At this time, another middle-aged man came over and looked at him. "Did you just plan to use magic to directly enter the city? Do you still want to use magic to arrest him?"

"I don't care whether what you do is disturbing the dragon's energy in the city. There are so many people in the city. If you kill and kill people like this and accidentally injure people, it is not a small crime."

The young man had already made Cao Yiyan wary just now. As soon as this middle-aged man appeared, Cao Yiyan could only vaguely feel it with his spiritual sense, and his heart sank.

"What I killed was a demon, not a human being. I was chasing the demon in a hurry just now. I didn't mean to offend. Please consider the safety of the people in the city and let me kill Monster."

"After all, although we are not in the same yamen, we are all for Great Zheng, so we are in the same palace as ministers."

"Cao True Person, you are a Daoist official and I am a life official. The starting point is different." The young man smiled, but he did not give in at all. "Now everything in the city is given priority to Imperial Examinations. This is to select talented people for the imperial court, and no one is allowed to interfere."

"Furthermore, we are acting according to orders, and the matter is of great importance, and we cannot allow you to cause trouble. Please leave. Otherwise, don't blame us for not caring about our feelings."

"Come on, I'm leaving!" Cao Yiyan said with a heart palpitating, turned around and left.

It's not that I'm afraid of these people, but that I don't want to be an enemy of the imperial court.

"Oh, these Daoist officials are not of my race. Their hearts must be different, and their hands are not clean. If they don't want to kill people with a borrowed knife, and let these Daoist officials cut off the clan of the previous dynasty, how can this person be so arrogant?"

Looking at the retreating figure, the young man looked at Cao Yiyan's retreating back and smiled coldly.

"What the Marquis said is, let alone interfere with our important matter of finding Crown Prince Bloodline." The middle-aged man took over and said.
