The wild fox spirit takes Fox Xin Xiaoqi to Baixi Village.

With magic power in his body, Wild Fox Spirit's foot strength is pretty good, and similarly, Fox Heart Xiaoqi's leg strength is pretty good too.

Baixi Village once produced a juren. If the analogy is true, it is probably similar to Gong Mengbi today.

Fox students are like scholars, and above them is Juren. Juren can probably reach the rank of ninth-rank official.

Gong Mengbi's current Immortal Official is only at the ninth level, although the value of the Immortal Official is not comparable to that of a human official.

After the death of the Juren master, he was buried in Baixi Village. However, as things changed, the dynasty would become extinct, let alone a Juren family.

Today's Juren Tomb is in disrepair and has been occupied by wild foxes.

The wild fox spirit and Fox Xin Xiaoqi arrived in front of Juren's tomb. They opened their mouths and shouted, and the long and thin voice was heard in Juren's tomb.

Soon, a red fox emerged from the cave on one side of Juren's tomb, transformed into a beautiful human form, and cursed: "Kang Yunu, how dare you come to see me?"

Not to be outdone, the wild fox spirit twisted into the wind and turned into a plump young woman. She crossed her arms and sneered: "Kang Wen, why am I afraid to see you?"

Kang Wen said angrily: "If you don't like me, the worst we can do is part ways. Why burn my manuscripts and blaspheme the text?"

Kang Yunu was furious: "It's obvious that after you gained a little bit of literary talent, you indulged in vitriolic articles. You didn't care about sisterhood. Your eyes were as high as the sky. You criticized this and that. Why don't you reflect on it?"

Kang Wen said: "I am familiar with poetry and books, I am familiar with the writings of saints, follow the etiquette, and abide by etiquette. You are not clean and self-respecting, and you don't practice well. Do you blame me for telling the truth?"

Kang Yunu took a deep breath and said, "You are a fox, you are not a human!"

Kang Wen raised his neck and said, "Sooner or later I will become an adult."

Kang Yunu calmed down the evil spirit in his chest, pointed at Hu Xin Xiaoqi and said: "Don't you say that you admire the talents in the world, and want to cultivate human form and learn the way of saints? What do you think of this Zhao Langjun? He is a celestial fox. The Shangguan envoy in the courtyard is also well-read and has a lot of poetry and books. Now he is inspecting the fox demon incident in Wuning County on behalf of Shangguan, and he needs an assistant. Are you willing to help him?"

Kang Wen looked at Hu Xin Xiaoqi and saw that the young man was of a romantic nature. Hearing what Kang Yunu said, he felt a little hesitant.

Seeing that she didn't refuse, Kang Yunu was overjoyed and encouraged, "Have you learned the way of a saint? You boast of being full of poems and writings, and you have a literary spirit. If you don't develop it, wouldn't it be like being a pearl in the dark?"

Kang Wen asked: "Are you really a messenger from Shangguan? Have you ever read any books?"

Hu Xin Xiaoqi glanced at Kang Yunu with a half-smile but couldn't help but shook his head when he saw Kang Yunu's eyes full of pleading.

If it weren't for the lack of skills and the lack of usable soldiers, why would he be like this? He replied: "Have you ever heard of Tianhu Academy? I am indeed the envoy of Mengbi from Huhui Palace in Wuning County, Tianhu Academy. As for studying, I don’t read much, I can only recognize words and know a few songs to worship the gods.”

Kang Wen couldn't help but glance down: "Although you are an envoy from Shangguan, you are not an official after all, and you have never read any books. Can you shoulder the responsibility of patrolling the countryside?"

Kang Yunu said: "So don't we need your help? If you can help him accomplish this, wouldn't it show your ability?"

Kang Wen changed his mind and said, "I can help you patrol the countryside, but after that, I hope you can recommend me to your superior."

Hu Xin Xiaoqi smiled and said: "Wen Hu actually has such an ambition, it depends on your performance. If you perform well, I will recommend you to the Hu Club."

Kang Wen was somewhat arrogant and felt that he was different from ordinary foxes. He was well-read, had poems and books in his belly, respected etiquette, followed the way of saints, and did not look down on those wild fox spirits who hung out in the countryside.

In this way, Kang Yu's slaves parted ways with her and burned her letters before leaving.

At this moment, hearing that Hu Xin Xiaoqi agreed, he was confident and said: "Wait for a moment, I will pack my bags and come."

Kang Wen got into the fox's hole, and Kang Yu's slave shook his head: "You are a arrogant girl who relies on your talent, but she has a good heart. Please be patient with her, envoy."

How could Hu Xin Xiaoqi care about her? He was in urgent need of employing people. If Kang Wen's ability was worthy of her arrogance, then Hu Xin Xiaoqi would be happy for him. If, as Kang Yunu said, she had only learned some empty and useless principles, Hu Xin Xiaoqi would also have the confidence to train her so that she could adapt to her position as soon as possible.

Gong Mengbi is responsible for the administration of the foxes in Wuning County, and he also wants to introduce talents to the Tianhu Academy. Why not start with Kang Wen, get a feel for the quality of the foxes in Wuning County, and see how to manage and educate them.

After a while, Kang Wen appeared outside the tomb again, saying he was packing his luggage, but in fact it was just an extra baggage and a few books on his back.

Kang Wen said: "Kang Yunu, I will prove that I am right."

Kang Yunu laughed: "Whether you are right or not has nothing to do with me. You don't have to prove it to me. It's getting late and I have to go back to Zhaojiazhuang. I hope to see you another day and you can get what you want."

Kang Yunu turned into a wild fox again, burrowed into the grass and disappeared.

Kang Wen watched her leave with relief, and seemed a little angry. Then he calmed down and asked, "Mr. Zhao, where are we going?"

Zhao Langjun touched his stomach, looked at the sky, and said, "You have to fill your stomach first. It's best to find a place to stay."

Kang Wen frowned: "It's not too late now. If you do things like this, when will you finish inspecting Wu Ning County?"

Fox Heart Xiaoqi said as he walked: "I have magic power, but I did not cultivate it by myself, but borrowed it from the Fox Association. The mortal body, burdened by the form, is not as good as your cultivation. People don't eat, If you don’t sleep, you will die.”

Kang Wen said dissatisfied: "What do you mean? It's not like I won't let you eat and sleep."

Fox Heart Xiaoqi smiled: "Let's go to Baixi Village to see if we can get some food."

There are no other fox demons in Baixi Village. In theory, fox demons that are not particularly close to each other will not gather in groups.

Kang Wen did have a few good friends in the past, but gradually no one interacted with her.

Kang Wen followed, and Hu Xin Xiao Qi asked: "Are you rich?"

Kang Wen glanced at Hu Xin Xiao Qi warily and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Change food, otherwise we will have to hunt game." Fox Xin Xiaoqi said.

Kang Wen took out a few old coins from his arms and said, "I took them out of the grave. I can lend them to you, but you remember to return them."

Fox Xin Xiaoqi said: "Okay."

In Baixi Village, I exchanged some cakes from farmers. Fox Heart Xiaoqi ate while walking and said, "My stomach is full. Do you know if there are any other fox monsters nearby?"

Kang Wen said: "There is one in Xixia Township. He lives in the house of the goddess and is worshiped."

"Then let's go and have a look." Fox Xin Xiaoqi said.

The two of them went down the Baixi River and arrived at the goddess in Xixia Village.

The goddess lives in the corner of the village because she has to serve the fox fairy and prevent herself from being bumped into.

Kang Wen called at the door: "Is Ma Shenpo here?"

Two men came out of the house, looked them over, and shouted, "Mom, someone is looking for you."

Ma Shenpo didn't come out, so she said in the room: "Please come in."

Two men invited them in.

There were curtains on the door and curtains on the windows, so the room was dark, lit only by two candles.

Ma Shenpo looked over in front of the Fox Fairy's altar and said, "Kangwen, why are you here?"
