Chapter 20: The Jade Tail Immortal

I don’t know how long it took, but the moon came out again.

The dim moonlight slightly swept away the suppressed darkness, allowing everyone to see what was in front of them again.

At this moment, there was an extra person in the yard - a woman.

She was wearing an orange-red coat and long hair shawls, and her skin was as white as if it was glowing under the moonlight.

Even if her face is not covered with powder or hairpin, she is still as beautiful as a fairy in the sky, without any dust in the world.

Everyone, this is a world that looks at the face. If monsters and ghosts look good enough, humans will naturally have different attitudes towards them.

For example, if the "ghost nun" looks like Anne Hathaway and makes a fuss at your house, would you suddenly feel that you can withstand it?

Of course, you may not be able to withstand it in another situation, but that is another matter, right?

At present, as soon as this "woman in the painting" appeared, the horror atmosphere at the scene was reduced a little. If a weak scholar or elegant young man was present at this moment, he would probably make his whole body look elated, so how could he care about it?

Fortunately... the reality is that there is no such waste in this yard.

At this moment, these five people standing in the yard will not be forgotten just because they are beautiful.

First of all, Master Wojian, the first in the Lingyin Temple, grew up in a small temple and had great concentration.

Secondly, Lord Lu Wenlu is already forty-eight years old. Although he is not yet at the age of completely losing some ability, he has long been unable to do anything because he was a little overly drunk and sexy when he was young, so he will not lose his mind at the moment of beauty.

Then there is Hu Qiuhu's headmaster... Nothing else, the couple is loving and the will is relatively firm.

Next, it is Yun Shili. As mentioned in the previous article, he has eaten and seen it. Isn’t he just a stunning beauty? What’s there to make a fuss about? Besides, he is also a martial artist, his willpower is no worse than Hu Qiu.

Finally, Sun Yixie... was so cowardly. He didn't care about what other people were like. To ensure his own safety was the priority...

Just now, when the surrounding environment was dark and bright, the other four had not done anything, but Sun Yixie had already "changed" all the tridents hidden on her body and copied them in her hands.

"Wow! Where did you take it out?" Yun Shili stood close to Sun Yixie. He was not scared by the woman in the painting, but was shocked by the weapon that Brother Sun suddenly created.

"You stare at that fairy, what do you care about me?" Sun Yixie replied impatiently, and at the same time, he had narrowed his small eyes and swept the "fairy" up and down more than five times.

"Who do you think is a fairy?" The beauty in the painting was displeased when she heard this and immediately said angrily, "I am the 'Yue Tailed Immortal'. Please respect me if you speak!"

When Sun Yixi heard this, he thought it was right. It was just a fairy who called this name. Where is the real god called this?

"Okay, then... Daxian, are you showing off today? Is there anything wrong with Sun Yixie not arguing with the other party, but immediately started to quarrel.

"Hmph..." The Jade-tailed Immortal snorted coldly and replied, "I originally wanted to tell you and Lord Yun about something, so I used some tricks to lure you in. Unexpectedly, you two dared not enter the house, and even found a monk to come and chatted in the yard... Then I can only come out by myself."

Before she finished speaking, Wo Jian on the other side had already folded his hands and said, "Amitabha... It turned out that the female donor was asking Mr. Sun and Lord Yun for something, so I won't bother you..." After that, this guy turned around and was about to escape.

Sun Yixie could still let the monk run away? He said "Mom, a chicken" at that time. He flashed over and grabbed the back collar of Wojian with one hand: "God's mother, female donor, is this a human? People call themselves a great immortal, are you still donor? Also, you are here to catch monsters, what should we do if you leave?"

"Yes, Mr. Sun is right, you can't leave, Master." Lu Wen also agreed at this time and began to move towards the gate of the courtyard. "But... I am really powerless to catch monsters, so I won't mess with you here..."

While speaking, he also wanted to flash.

But as soon as he was about to pass by Sun Yixie, he heard a "huh--" sound, and the trident's halberd tip crossed in front of him.

"Mr. Lu, you sent the 'Go to the Immortals' to visit the Lake'. You left... Isn't that right?" Sun Yixie would not let Lu Wen go.

His pull and stop made both Wo Jian and Lu Wen feel uncomfortable, but they dared not resist.

Unexpectedly, after a breath, the Jade-tailed Immortal relieved them: "Okay, I don't know what my surname is Lu, and I can't control it. The monk has no power, so I can't do anything to me. There is also the captain... If they want to leave, they will leave." At this point, she paused, and her eyes stopped on Yun Shili and Sun Yixie, "I'm looking for... you two."

"Thank you, great immortal!" After hearing this, Lu Wen actually bowed to the monster, then turned around and bowed his head and ran away from under the trident.

"Amitabha..." Wo Jian also took advantage of Sun Yixi's hand slightly loosening.

However, Captain Hu was a little loyal. Before he was discharged from the hospital, he said to the two: "Two, take care of yourself..." before leaving.

Sun Yixie and Yun Shili did not stop those people anymore because they realized that even if the three people stayed, it would be useless. Since the fairy said that it had nothing to do with the others and just wanted to find Sun Yun and the other two, they could only bite the bullet and ask about the situation first.

"Mom... Then let it go, Lord Lu, even monks are not reliable these days." After all those people left, Sun Yixie cursed and said, "I will ask me for so much incense money in our family at the critical moment."

Yun Shili was not as slutty as Brother Sun, and at this time, Lord Yun had calmed down and accepted the situation in front of him that reversed his cognition.

But once he accepts this setting, he is no longer afraid.

As Shui Hanyi once said, although Yun Shili is a little frivolous on the surface, he has justice in his heart. If a person has a clear conscience in his life, there is no need to be afraid of any ghosts and gods.

"This great immortal, can you tell me why you are looking for us?" Yun Shili quickly asked the Jade-tailed great immortal in a calm tone.

The Jade-tailed Immortal was silent for a few seconds, suddenly sighed softly, and then changed to a sad tone: "I want to ask you two to help me with something."

"What's the matter?" Yun Shili asked.

"Avenge." Yuwei Daxian's answer was also concise.

"Slow down!" Sun Yixie's mind was very active. When he heard these two words, combined with the information he had at present, he immediately speculated, "Let me guess... Did you have an affair with Han Yu back then, and then he became the top scholar and turned against him. So you committed suicide angrily, and after death, he turned into a ghost and attached himself to the portrait he drew for you. Now I want us to avenge you?"

His reasoning was really logical, but unfortunately...

"No." The Jade-tailed Immortal denied Brother Sun's guess without any emotion.

"Ah?" Sun Yixie was stunned, "What's going on?"

"Oh..." When Yuwei Daxian was asked, she sighed again, and then began to tell her experience back then.

…………

This has to start about twenty-seven years ago.

At that time, a fox who had cultivated to become a spirit appeared in Yueyang's territory; although her magic power was not very high, she still gave herself a very loud name, called "Yu Tai Immortal".

This Jade-tailed Immortal is not a evil demon. She slowly cultivates the monsters by absorbing the sun, the moon, and eating vegetarian food to accumulate merits.

On weekdays, she doesn't harm others. On the contrary, she often turns into a beautiful woman, scaring or teasing local gangsters, lustful young men, etc.

If a little demon like her is a kind person, if one day the opportunity comes, and meets a master passing by here and takes her back to the mountain gate, she might be able to become a spirit beast in the future.

However, it was exactly what Miaoyinzi said—“Whether it is a human or an object, the name must be taken according to fate. If it is too big and cannot bear it, it will suffer heavy consequences.”

In her Jade-tailed Immortal, she was destined to have a disaster...

One night, she met someone on the shore of Dongting Lake.

He was a scholar in his early twenties and a gentleman; to put it nicely, he was called a "scholar", but to put it badly, he was a poor scholar.

I don’t say it, you all understand that this is Han Yu when he was young.

That night, Han Yu came to the lake for nothing else, he killed himself...

Why are you seeking death? It's very simple. It's time to go to Beijing to take the exam, but his family is so poor that he has no money to support him on the road.

The concept of "travel fee" in ancient times was different from that in modern times. In our modern people's eyes, long-distance travel was nothing more than a ticket for a short distance. People stayed in the bus for a longer time. That's all. Compared with a dozen hours of long-distance bus and a few hours of short distances, a few more meals were paid; but in ancient times, you might have to walk several months to a farther place. Apart from the expenses of carriages and horses along the way, food and accommodation were the real big deal.

If Han Yu's hometown is not too far from the capital, it would be fine. Even if he sells his money to a pawn shop, it would be enough. But how long does it take to take the exam from Yueyang (Hunan) to Beijing (Beijing) to take the exam? No one dares to lend him a loan loan to him even if Han Yu borrows usury... What should he do if a poor scholar who can't afford to hire a scholar boy dies halfway? Even if he doesn't die, if he doesn't get any name for the exam, he will not be able to pay the money?

Youdao is to force a hero to death with just one penny. Even a hero can force a hero to death, so it would be easier to force a scholar to death, right?

Han Yu was still too young and energetic at this time. If you asked him to beg for food and go to Beijing, he couldn't let go of his figure and didn't have the ability. After thinking about it, he couldn't figure out a solution. He was anxious and thought to himself, "I'll just die."

But the same thing is said - I will only know that I will die if I am in the event of something.

When Han Yu really arrived by the lake, he hesitated and became entangled, and finally sat down... and started crying.

Some people may say, why is this person like a girl?

But if you put yourself in your shoes, if your life has come to this point, you will cry.

That is well said in "Night Running" that men don't cry easily, but it's just because they are not sad. There are ones here, and 80% are not as good as Han Yu. At least they cry because of major life problems that cannot be solved. Many of our modern young men look at the big and thick, but encounter a little bit of small setbacks in work, study and life, such as losing a love story, and crying worse than women.

Let's get back to the point...

Han Yu was crying, and the Jade-tailed Immortal saw this. This fox was proficient in human nature, so she changed her mind and came over to ask Han Yu what was going on.

Han Yu was too sad at the time and was a little confused. He didn't think about how a beautiful girl would run to the lake in the middle of the night... Anyway, he was just talking about his own affairs like he was bitter.

After hearing this, the Jade-tailed Immortal felt that the scholar was quite pitiful, and she could see that there was no evil spirit on this person, so she decided to help him.

How to help? Just give money.

Logically speaking, fairies generally have no money. When they encounter occasions where money is needed, they just need to use silence to disguise some stone branches and other things as silver. This kind of silver will naturally appear after the spell's time limit has passed.

But the Jade Tai Immortal is really rich. Because when she teases the bullies, she will take away the silver from them as a means of punishment, so she has saved a lot of real silver on hand.

When Han Yu heard that the other party wanted to give him money, he was happy at first, but then he realized many problems. As he gradually calmed down, he began to ask about the identity of the woman in front of him and the origin of the money.

The Jade-tailed Fairy first lied and said that she was a performer, but Han Yu asked a few more details, and her lie would not be fulfilled.

At this time, Han Yu was really a good person, and he could even be said to be very pedantic. When he saw that the other party’s people and money were unknown, he refused to accept it, fearing that it would cause any trouble to the other party after receiving it.

There was no way, Yuwei Tai Xian thought about it and told Han Yu the truth - it was obviously easier to prove that he was a fairy than to prove that he was a person, and just perform a few small spells.

After Han Yu knew the truth, he was not afraid because he thought that this demon would help him like this, which would be a good demon; so he accepted the money with great gratitude and promised repeatedly that he would come back to repay the Jade-tailed Immortal in the future.

This happened...

The Jade-tailed Immortal did not think that Han Yuyu must come to repay him. For her, money is something outside of her body, and this is a slaughter.

And Han Yu had never had any malice towards the Jade-tailed Immortal. He was still feeling on the way to Beijing to take the exam and drew the "Picture of Encountering Immortals in the Lake"; the picture was a little lake view, a beautiful woman... There were actually quite a lot of paintings like this in that era, and no one would think that the people in the painting really existed.

However, after winning the top scorer and entering the officialdom, Han Yu changed and became very fast.

Officialdom is a place where young people with integrity can transform the kind of people they originally hated the most.

There are very few people who are not stained with mud.

There are still many who have died without a burial place before the mud has emerged.

Han Yu is a good person, but he is not a saint. The suffering of his poor family in the first half of his life made him extremely utilitarian after seizing the opportunity because he was afraid of going back to the past.

So he turned himself into a turbid appearance like others in that big dye vat. Even the "Immortal Picture of Visiting Lake" was given out as a bribe by him... When he gave it, he even felt that this painting was a bit incapable of making any move, because in his eyes at that time, everything could be measured by the transaction of money and power, and his calligraphy and paintings were not of great value at that time, and he and the story behind this painting were worthless.

In fact, if things come to an end here, it would be fine. After all, the Jade-tailed Immortal himself has never expected a reward.

But disasters are disasters, and she never thought that Jade Tai would not have thought that in the end, Han Yu did not repay her kindness, but also repaid her grudges, which caused a disaster for her.

And the cause of all that was a summer twenty-five years ago...

That day, an old master suddenly came to Han Yu and said he wanted to negotiate a deal with him.

The old Taoist called himself "Guan Hengzi".
