Hu Quan recited the formula in a low voice. Although Lu Yuan could hear everything, he couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
As the mantra sounded, Hu Quan began to take steps. Lu Yuan followed his steps very carefully.
Hu Quan first took seven steps to the east, then jumped four steps to the west.
As he continued walking, Lu Yuan noticed that orange-green light gradually glowed under Hu Quan's feet. These lights converged into beams of light, slowly lingering around his legs.
Lu Yuan looked down and saw that the same was true under his feet.
The spells became louder and faster, and Hu Quan's pace kept changing. From a distance, it looks like they are dancing an exotic dance.
Lu Yuan Qilin learned everything quickly. After getting used to it for a while, he felt that these steps were extremely simple.
Suddenly, Hu Quan shouted: "Sick!"
Lu Yuan only felt a slight dizziness in his head, and a white light pierced him so hard that he couldn't open his eyes.
After two breaths, he suddenly smelled the fragrance of green grass and soil, and heard the chirping of birds and the whispering of insects.
Hu Quan smiled at the side and said: "Benefactor, please open your eyes, Fenglin Cave is here."
Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and found that the scene in front of him was completely different from the pasture he had seen before!
Although there is a word "cave" here, it doesn't look like a cave at all.
I saw that the area here is vast, with mountains and ancient trees towering into the sky.
The giant tree is wrapped with vines of various colors, and strange birds fly across the branches from time to time.
Variegated wildflowers and herbs rarely seen in the outside world are randomly scattered on the ground like gems.
"Old sir, is it... here?"
Hu Quan bowed and said: "Hui Xianshi, it is indeed true. Please follow me and I will take you to see the clan leader. He should be able to help you."
Lu Yuan nodded and followed him deeper into the woods.
The winding path leads to a secluded place, with layers of fallen leaves piled on the road, giving you a soft feeling when you walk up it. The shoes rub against the fallen leaves, and there is a soft "chacha" sound, which makes people feel peaceful and comfortable.
There are occasionally hidden fox guards on the road. After the fox clan transforms, their appearance is similar to that of ordinary humans, except that the two fox ears are difficult to transform and still grow on the head.
Lu Yuan had read all of this in "Secrets of the Mysterious Realm". Although it was his first time to see a living creature, he was not particularly surprised.
The guards all wore tight-fitting green clothes, wore short blades on their waists, and drew their bows and arrows.
The male fox demon is thin and slender, and behaves cautiously;
Women are concave and convex, which attracts people's imagination.
When they saw Hu Quan, they all put down their weapons and nodded in greeting, then glanced at Lu Yuan with vigilant eyes.
Lu Yuan looked at them and followed Hu Quan. The journey was smooth.
It seems that Mr. Hu Quan is quite a figure in the Fox clan. Lu Yuan thought to himself.
After walking for a while, the two came to a circular cave door.
There are no complicated decorations outside the cave door, only green vines covering it, making it appear simple and aloof.
When the four heavily armed guards outside the door saw Hu Quan, they all smiled and made a "please come in" gesture.
Hu Quan nodded in return and led Lu Yuan into the hall.
Lu Yuan did not expect that the hall was so spacious and could accommodate at least two to three hundred people.
There were about forty fox demons with different appearances standing or sitting in the hall. Judging from their clothes and expressions, they should be officials or nobles with relatively high status in the fox clan.
Against the wall stood more than thirty fully armed guards.
The incense burner in the corner is slowly burning incense wood, with a light and fragrant smell.
Sitting directly in front of the hall was a middle-aged man. The clothes are simple and there are several long colorful necklaces hanging around his neck. The man's face was like a crown jade, his expression was cold and majestic, and circles of profound energy fluctuations faintly emanated from his body.
Next to him, slightly lower, stood a short, fat, middle-aged man dressed as a scribe.
When the man who was sitting saw Hu Quan coming, he immediately stood up and said gently: "Old Quan, long time no see."
Hu Quan returned the greeting and said, "Your Majesty, the Patriarch is too polite."
The patriarch looked at Lu Yuan next to him and smiled at Hu Quan: "Every time Mr. Quan comes, he always brings some good news. I wonder who the young man next to you is?"
Lu Yuan cupped his hands and said, "I'm the Demon Master Lu Yuan."
"Demon Master?" Everyone in the hall trembled. The guards all drew their swords out of their scabbards and took a warning posture.
Hu Quan smiled and said: "Clan leader, don't be surprised. This little immortal master is not here to arrest us, but to help us!"
The clan leader also smiled and said: "Lao Quan is joking. Can we ask the demon master to help us?"
Lu Yuan said: "Clan leader, I'm not here specifically to help you, but to find someone."
The clan leader signaled the guards to put down their weapons and said to Lu Yuan, "Who is Master Lu looking for?"
"A man who captured more than 300 of your fox clan members."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.
"Damn human race, you are here to humiliate us!"
"The demon master came to our demon territory and is really looking for death!"
"What are the intentions of the human race!?"
Waves of curses kept coming.
The patriarch motioned for everyone to be quiet. He asked Lu Yuan: "Master Lu, please tell us in detail."
Lu Yuan talked freely and informed everyone about the matter.
The whole hall was silent.
Hu You, a short and fat scribe on the side, said harshly: "Sure enough, those people arrested us because they wanted to use our Yin-stagnation demon body to do evil!"
Lu Yuan said: "So, everyone, our enemies are the same. I believe many people still remember the Taoist master. Please provide me with some clues."
Just as the patriarch was about to reply, the scribe immediately gave him a wink. The scribe glanced at Lu Yuan with his small eyes and said:
"Master Lu, how do I know that you are not the same as them? This red mouth and white teeth have no evidence, how can we believe it?"
Hu Quandao: "Master Right, you can rest assured about this. My old man's life was saved by Master Lu."
Then he told the story of his being in danger and being rescued by Lu Yuan.
The patriarch said happily: "Why didn't Mr. Quan tell you earlier? For such a big thing, we should prepare a banquet to thank the Immortal Master! Immortal Lu, it was all a misunderstanding just now, please don't be offended."
After speaking, he was ready to order his subordinates to arrange a banquet.
"Wait a minute!" Hu You waved his hand, "Master Patriarch, please think twice!"
The clan leader asked doubtfully: "Oh? What do you have to say, sir?"
Hu You said: "Everyone in the world says that my fox tribe is cunning, but I think the human race is even more cunning. We use deceit to survive. Look at the human race, how many people do all kinds of things that are harmful to nature and evil just to satisfy their own selfish interests?"
Lu Yuan said sternly: "Your Majesty, this seems to be reasonable, but it is actually biased. There are indeed scum in the human race, but most mortals work diligently. They are honest and kind-hearted, and they just want to settle down and settle down. In this life, there will be no storms, no waves, peace and well-being. Without these people, how could our country of Dayu be strong and prosperous? How could we resist the invasion of foreign nations?"
While Hu Bugui taught Lu Yuan the art of subduing demons, he also told him some things about his family and country. Lu Yuan understood this meaning more deeply after going down the mountain to subdue the demon.
Hu Quandao: "Master Right, I don't know very well what other human races are like. But I still know the character of Master Lu Xian."
A cunning look bloomed in Hu You's eyes: "Haha, he killed someone and then followed you in. I'm afraid this is their trick!"
"Hahahaha! This fox demon is right! You have all fallen into the trap. Thank you Master Lu for bringing us in!"
A burst of thunderous words sounded from outside the cave, making the hairs of everyone in the hall stand on end!
