Xu Qingfeng's curiosity became even more intense:

"where is your home?"

The little fox looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, and then slowly uttered two words:

"Qingqiu."

Xu Qingfeng was slightly startled.

He had pestered the old Taoist priest to tell him about the outside world, where humans, monsters, ghosts and gods coexisted and were divided from four directions.

For the human race, there are many taboo places in the world such as demon kingdoms and ghost realms.

If human beings fall into it, unless they have great power, they will basically have no chance of getting out alive.

Qingqiu.

It is a demon kingdom.

The Fox clan is the nobles of Qingqiu.

The owner of Qingqiu is a nine-tailed sky fox and a ninth-level demon emperor with extremely high cultivation level.

Except of course the Fox Clan.

Qingqiu also gathers all kinds of monsters and spirits, but they all have to abide by Qingqiu's rules.

So if Xu Qingfeng wanted to send the little fox home, he would have to take on a human body and go deep into the realm of the demon kingdom.

Even though he now possesses the inheritance of the Heavenly Master.

There is no guarantee that you can escape unscathed from the Qingqiu Demon Country where big demons and demon kings are everywhere.

Xu Qingfeng smiled:

"Little fox, you really think highly of me."

"So, you are from the fox tribe of Qingqiu, and you have a noble status."

The little fox scratched his head and said with some embarrassment:

"I heard from the elders that I am just a side branch of the bloodline, and I am not very noble."

It seemed to know that its request was a bit too much, and quickly added:

"Actually, most of Qingqiu Li are monsters cultivating the sun, essence, and moon."

"Our attitude towards human beings is also relatively neutral. We will not offend others unless they offend us."

"It's not like places like Beihuang, Nanling, and the Forest of Ten Thousand Monsters."

"The bloody demons are entrenched there. If a human goes in, no bones will be left."

After the little fox finished speaking, he opened his big eyes and looked at Xu Qingfeng eagerly.

Xu Qingfeng thought for a moment and was ready to agree. As a member of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, the little fox would probably have a lot of will power involved.

The journey to Qingqiu was more than ten thousand miles away. Along the way, there were many ghost lands in the dynasty, demon kingdom, and the little fox had a low cultivation level. It was impossible for him to cross so many dangerous places on his own.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have stayed in Qiyun Mountain for so long. It's not that it doesn't want to go home, it's that it can't.

As long as Xu Qingfeng completes its commission, not to mention his willingness to pay back, his reward will probably be very generous.

Xu Qingfeng thought for a while and said:

"Do you have a time requirement for your wish to go home?"

The little fox immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"You're not in a hurry. If you travel around the world, I can follow you around."

Xu Qingfeng smiled slightly:

"Okay, then I will accept your commission. Once I have said my word, it will be hard to follow. Let's high-five and make an appointment."

The little fox smiled happily, stretched out its fox paw happily, and patted Xu Qingfeng's big hand three times.

When the squirrel and the turtle heard that the little fox was leaving Qiyun Mountain, they all clamored to follow Xu Qingfeng.

Xu Qingfeng thought this was fine.

There were no little foxes watching.

With the limited intelligence of squirrels and turtles, it is likely that they will not be able to live freely in Qiyun Mountain for long.

It was brought to the table.

It's better to follow him and look after each other to be safer.

Originally, Xu Qingfeng planned to say goodbye to Fang Wende and Meng Huaiyuan, and then set off on the road.

However, when I met the two of them, I was told something else.

That is the Demon Suppressor of Pingan Town in Qiyun Mountain.

Haven't arrived yet.

As early as half a month ago, the old Taoist priest had asked Fang Wende to send a letter to Supervisor Tiansi and appoint a new demon-suppressing envoy to replace him.

Supervisor Tiansi's reply to the letter also indicated that the demon-suppressing envoy was already on his way.

Calculating the distance, the demon-suppressing envoy should have arrived long ago, but as of today, no one has been seen.

Meng Huaiyuan sent a letter to the city to supervise Tiansi to inquire about the situation.

Theoretically speaking, when the Demon Suppressor comes to Qiyun Mountain to take up his post, he will first register with the Liucheng Supervisory Office.

The day before yesterday, the Supervisor Tiansi came back with a letter saying that the Supervisor Tiansi who stayed in the city had his registration information.

Meng Huaiyuan was suspicious, so he sent soldiers to investigate on the road between Liucheng and Ping'an Town.

Then, those soldiers.

All are missing.

In this way, Fang Wende and Meng Huaiyuan concluded that something happened.

Moreover, the place where the accident occurred was most likely on the way between Liucheng and Ping'an Town.

Fang Wende has sent a letter to the Tiansi Supervisor in the city to inform them of the suspected situation.

However, Supervisor Tiansi has always been busy with affairs, and he doesn't know when he will be able to take care of the small Ping'an Town.

Now that the two of them heard that Xu Qingfeng was going to Liucheng, they immediately started thinking about it, and Fang Wende sorted out his words.

Then he slowly said:

"The little Taoist Master has great magical powers. I am leaving the city. I wonder if I can take a look at the whereabouts of the demon-suppressing envoy and our city defense soldiers?"

Xu Qingfeng felt a faint fluorescent flash on the jade plate in his mind, and he said with a smile:

"Is this a commission?"

"Is there any reward?"

Fang Wende was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Xu Qingfeng had no intention of refusing at all, and said with emotion:

"Of course there will be a reward. The little Taoist rescued Ping'an Town earlier, and we have already prepared a gift.

If the little Taoist priest can help generously this time, no matter what the request is, we will definitely do our best to meet it. "

Xu Qingfeng smiled slightly.

In fact, he didn't really care about the remuneration, he just asked for remuneration to rationalize his willingness to agree to the commission.

Moreover, Ping'an Town is not actually rich, and Fang Wende can be regarded as an honest and upright official.

Xu Qingfeng was embarrassed to catch the poor people.

He said casually:

"Just help me prepare some food and a change of robes."

"Oh, by the way, if you can, prepare some Fuyunzui, my friends like it better."

Fang Wende and Meng Huaiyuan said with gratitude in their eyes:

"Don't worry, little Taoist priest."

"Enough with the wine!"

Xu Qingfeng stood up and said with a smile: "No problem, I will help you investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Suppressor."

"We high-fived each other."

Fang Wende said gratefully:

“Thank you so much, little Taoist priest, for your generous help!”

Xu Qingfeng and Fang Wende immediately high-fived and the agreement was made.

The next day.

Fang Wende and Meng Huaiyuan prepared four large boxes of Fuyunzui and a whole box of snowflake silver, totaling five hundred taels.

As Xu Qingfeng's drinks on the road, there are also expenses on the way.

As for other changes of clothes, dry food and water, they are also well prepared. Overall, this generous reward has far exceeded Xu Qingfeng's expectations.

He smiled and said:

"Mayor Fang, Commander Meng."

"You are too prepared, how can you be so embarrassed?"

After that, Xu Qingfeng picked up the squirrel, which was already carrying a wine bottle, and threw it onto the back of Da Qing Niu.

I just know that being greedy for alcohol is really worthless.

Look at that little fox.

Unknowingly, he leaned against the box containing silver and quietly took several pieces.

The tortoise was the most content and kept to itself. It squatted obediently on top of the bull's head and reacted slowly before getting ready to get off the bull.

Fang Wende and Meng Huaiyuan quickly started pushing and pulling with Xu Qingfeng:

"Little Taoist Priest, these are common things."

"There are no objects suitable for cultivators in Ping'an Town. My sword, which is honed with evil spirit, must not be favored by the Taoist Priest."

"We can only compensate with more mundane things. Don't be disgusted by the little Taoist priest."

Seeing this, Xu Qingfeng smiled and said:

"If I don't accept it, I think you won't feel at ease either."

He opened the storage bag and put several boxes of fine wine and a box of silver into the bag. He also took out the bones of a second-grade monster and threw them out to make room.

After everything was packed up, Xu Qingfeng straightened his Tsing Yi Taoist robe and handed over to the two of them:

"We'll set off now, you two will stay."

"Little Taoist Master, take care along the way!"
