In the blink of an eye it's spring again. The group continued on the road,
Two months later, we arrived in Qingqiu Country.
Hundreds of miles away, Qingmei sent the news back.
When they arrived at Qingqiu Country, they received an extremely grand welcome.
All the transformed fox girls in Qingqiu Kingdom stood on the roadside, holding mountain flowers to welcome the distinguished guests. The little fox with insufficient cultivation was locked at home and not allowed to go out.
The owner of the Qingqiu Kingdom is a middle-aged beauty named "Zhujin", with tall temples and a sweet smile. She holds a feast in the cave.
Those attending the feast were all nobles of the fox clan, with at least four tailed foxes and above.
Qingmei's grandmother, as the great witch who has mastered the most runes, sits next to the king. She looks like an old woman in her sixties.
Qingmei snuggled next to her grandma, talking in a low voice with a sweet smile on her face, and looking back at Lu Cheng with unspeakable affection in her eyes.
Grandma took her hand and said: "My child, this is your blessing. I am happy for you. The "rune annotations" you sent back are very precious and allowed me to understand part of the classics in the secret cave; The elixir you sent back will help the king advance to the peak of the spiritual warrior..."
Qingmei said: "Grandma, Lord Wu Kuang came to Qingqiu Country this time and wants to see the animal skin book we have hidden in the secret cave. He will try to help us repair the boundary monument."
Grandma said: "The king said that as long as the boundary monument can be repaired, he can be allowed to enter the secret cave to copy. But the time is short and he cannot stay in there for too long."
Qingmei smiled and said, "Master Wu Kuang has a broad marrow sea and an amazing memory. It doesn't matter if time is short." She knew that Lu Cheng had that kind of "magic weapon" for fast shooting, so she was happy for him.
The noble ladies of the Qingqiu Kingdom kept a close eye on Lu Cheng, some were envious, some were doubtful, some were infatuated, and some even laughed. If it weren't for the pressure and warning from the king, something might have happened.
After the feast, Lu Cheng began to repair the boundary monument.
The boundary monument of Qingqiu Kingdom was broken into many pieces. Qingmei brought a message back and asked people to make rubbings. However, the fox girl who made the rubbings only rubbed the big pieces and left out the small pieces.
Therefore, Lu Cheng came to inspect it personally, put all the pieces together, and basically mastered the original runes.
He took pictures again, brought them back to modern times, input them into the computer, and made a new jade tablet. Then take the jade tablet back to Qingqiu Kingdom.
Qingmei helped erect jade monuments around the border.
Later, Lu Cheng stayed in Qingqiu Kingdom, verifying whether the boundary monument was valid and waiting for the secret cave to open.
The secret cave in Qingqiu Kingdom is not always open, but is opened on the seventh day of July every year, when two bright stars in the sky are close, and it lasts only 7 days. After the secret cave is opened, a maximum of two people are allowed to enter, and no more than one person is allowed.
While Lu Cheng was waiting here, he was treated like a great gentleman.
The Fox clan brought over plates of delicious fruits and jars of fine wines, with Qingmei smiling and smiling and serving them beside them.
The Qingqiu Kingdom married fox girls from various ethnic groups and learned multi-ethnic crafts, such as wine-making. They presented 72 jars of fine wine, each of which was different.
Qingmei said: "I heard from my grandma that a long time ago, when our ancestors were still alive, our Qingqiu country was not in such decline. At that time, the people of the country lived a very good life, with beautiful houses on Yaotai, jade cups like chopsticks, bears' legs and leopards' fetuses, wine ponds and meat forests. . It’s a pity that they are all gone now. The palace of Yaotai fell down, the jade cups and chopsticks were snatched away, the bears and leopard fetuses did not dare to hunt, for fear of triggering the revenge of the bear and leopard tribes; the wine pool and the meat forest were also difficult to realize. The good wine we stored Bring them all over. Brother, I know you are not good at drinking, but you should try them one by one."
Lu Cheng said "Okay": "Open two jars first and drink slowly. I'll put away the rest."
Qingmei added: "Yesterday the country's leader Zhu Jin asked me if I wanted to recruit some female slaves from the Fox clan, but I didn't dare to agree."
Lu Cheng said calmly: "No need."
He thought to himself: "I am not King Zhou of Shang. How can I build a wine pool and meat forest, open a huge harem, and recruit a group of vixens?"
Qingmei Qiao smiled brightly: "Brother, I know you don't like women."
Lu Cheng
He looked at her and said, "I told you, I have a wife and children at home, and I don't want to cause trouble outside. Human energy is limited. If you want to achieve something, you can't indulge yourself."
"Yes, I know."
Lu Cheng returns to modern times from another world every other month.
He would not stay in another world for too long at a time, for fear that something might happen to his body here, which would cause his wife to worry.
He has already tested it. If he stays in another world for one month, a modern clock will only run two or three minutes. If he stays in another world for three months, a modern clock will run one hour. The longest time he stayed in another world was In half a year, modern clocks go by 4 hours! The relationship between the two is not a standard linear relationship. It may be an arc. If he leaves for three to five years, I don't know how long the modern era will last. Maybe ten days and a half, maybe one or two months.
Similarly, in order not to miss the opening time of the secret cave, he did not dare to stay in modern times for too long.
Since the lives of both parties are asymmetrical and the relationship is not non-linear, he needs to constantly switch back and forth.
A few months passed in the blink of an eye, and the day came for the secret cave to open.
That evening, Lu Cheng and Qingmei, under the personal leadership of the country's leader Zhu Jin, came to a lush and deep valley. There is a simple mountain protection formation in the valley, and white mist is steaming, covering the lush green trees.
They walked into the formation, walked along the winding mountain road for a while, came to a cliff, and then stood there and waited.
The leader of the country, Zhu Jin, said: "Let's wait here for a while. When the two bright stars in the sky converge after nightfall, there will be a ray of light shining down from the sky, and the secret cave will open."
Lu Cheng said: "Thank you very much, Lord."
Zhu Jin smiled and said: "Master Wu Kuang, the timing of your arrival is perfect. If it were a thousand years ago, even if you were a celestial witch and the most distinguished guest of Qingqiu Kingdom, you would not be able to enter the secret cave. Because there is a fox in the secret cave. The treasures collected by the clan over the years, although some of the jewels and jade were taken out one after another by the previous kings, many animal skin books, sapphire tablets, and items related to cultivation are kept in them. This is the foundation for our Qingqiu Kingdom to settle down and live. ..."
Lu Cheng nodded slightly.
Zhujin continued: "We in Dong Qingqiu are at a critical moment of life and death. Thousands of years ago, when the fox clan was prosperous, tens of thousands of fox girls transformed into humans every year. Nowadays, our little foxes are constantly being hunted, and there is no way for them to wait until they transform. Fortunately, sir, you came to help us rebuild the boundary monument and let us recuperate; the elixirs sent back by Qingmei and Liju helped us train several masters; the "Qingqiu Tianhu Gong" sent back by Qingmei, supplemented It’s all about the Eight-tailed Fox. You’ve helped us a lot, so I decided to violate the ancestor’s prohibition and let you and Qingmei enter the secret cave.”
Lu Cheng said: "I understand what you mean."
"Master Wu Kuang, after you and Qingmei enter the secret cave, in addition to studying the classics, you can each choose a magical weapon of a witch cultivator to take away. Our Qingqiu country is mainly a martial arts cultivator. For many years, we have not even had a spiritual wizard None, and it’s useless to keep the magic weapon.”
"Thank you, Lord."
"Also, could you please help me find an item? I've gone into the secret cave more than a dozen times and haven't found it yet."
"What item?" Lu Cheng felt strange and thought to himself, "As the leader of the country, I can enter the secret cave every year. How can I not find what I want?"
Zhu Jin said: "It's a "Spirit Needle" magical weapon, less than an inch long, which was accidentally thrown into the secret cave by the previous king. That magic weapon is very important to the Fox Clan. With it, I can jump over the ranks and kill the demon kings on the east and west sides of Qingqiu Kingdom. "
Qingmei said: "I know, Aunt Jin, I will look carefully."
