Chapter 1435 Accidentally Revealing the Fox's Tail
When Miss Hu saw Jiang Hao, she bowed her head slightly and bowed to him, "I have met Mr. Jiang."
"I've met Miss Hu." Jiang Hao raised his hand in return.
The scene of the two worshiping each other was extremely harmonious.
The old fox coughed slightly and invited Jiang Hao to take a seat. The maid served tea. The three of them sat in the hall and chatted. Most of the topics revolved around the imperial examination questions and poems. After a while, the butler came over and said, "Master, the banquet is ready."
The old fox stood up with a smile, "Haha, Mr. Jiang, please prepare a little wine, please serve it."
When he arrived at the restaurant, Jiang Hao found that today's banquet was more sumptuous, with a full table and the small wine cups replaced by large wine cups.
In fact, this was the old fox's conspiracy. He called Jiang Hao here today just to create an opportunity. He planned in his mind and made Scholar Jiang drunk. He slept here and asked his daughter to take care of him.
Men are most afraid of gentleness, and their own daughter is so beautiful. I think Scholar Jiang will definitely fall in love with her very quickly. With the admiration of her, he will naturally be willing to fight for his daughter when the time comes. Hehehehe.
The old fox had a smile on his face and raised his glass to Jiang Hao frequently. Jiang Hao was very free and easy. As long as the old fox toasted, the wine would be dry. After drinking two pots in a row, the old fox found that the scholar Jiang opposite him still looked as usual.
A good drinker.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm in a high mood today. I see that you are also a lover of wine. How about we change to a bigger bowl and have a good drink?" the old fox said in a bold tone.
Jiang Hao had actually noticed that this old fox was pliing him with wine. He was afraid that he was hiding some conspiracy. He sneered in his heart, "I'm afraid you don't know that I have the ability to not get drunk after a thousand cups."
"I'm happy today too, so I'll have a drink with Mr. Hu outside." Jiang Hao nodded.
Hu Xinyue looked at her father in surprise. He rarely drank alcohol. Drinking too much could easily cause trouble. It would be bad if he couldn't control his deformation when drunk and exposed his fox tail. She deliberately reminded her father and gave Hu Yuanwai a secret wink, but The old fox didn't answer at all.
The butler changed the wine bowls for the two of them. The old fox found various topics to talk about and drank together. In a blink of an eye, he drank seventeen or eight bowls. Although the old fox was very skilled, he was also a little drunk, his face turned red and his head was slightly dizzy.
Looking at Jiang Hao again, his expression remained unchanged and his body was like a mountain.
Oops, brat, you have such a good drinking capacity, you are not even drunk at all.
The old fox was a little anxious.
I don't believe that I, a cultivator, can't drink as a mortal like you. Let me see how much you drink.
"Master Jiang, come again!" He said, picking up the bowl and looking at Jiang Hao. This time he didn't even find an excuse.
"Hu Weng please!"
Jiang Hao answered neither humble nor arrogantly, and raised his wine bowl.
Gudu Gudu,
The two drank the wine in several gulps, and Hu Yuanwai shouted to Hu Quan, "It's full of wine, keep filling it up."
"Master, if you drink more, you will get more." Hu Quan advised carefully.
Hu Yuanwai glared, and Hu Quan was too frightened to say anything more, so he immediately fucked the two of them.
"You still dare to drink!" Hu Yuanwai shouted.
"I'll stay with you until the end." Jiang Hao replied.
Bowl after bowl, the two of them drank another seventeen or eighteen bowls. The old fox felt his head was dizzy, and the figure of Jiang Hao in front of him had turned into two.
"Dad, you can't drink any more." Miss Hu advised.
Originally, he wanted to get the scholar drunk, but he couldn't hold it anymore. The old fox couldn't bear to do it. He waved his hand to his daughter and said, "Don't worry about my daughter. Today, I will definitely see how he drinks."
After the old fox finished speaking, he stood up and grabbed the wine jar, shouting to Jiang Hao: "Scholar, do you dare to drink from this jar with me?"
Jiang Hao also stood up and grabbed a wine jar next to him.
At this moment, a ball suddenly bulged behind the old fox, and a long big tail popped out from the hem of his robe. Miss Hu was sitting next to her father, and she was shocked when she saw her father's tail.
"Father, you drank too much!"
Miss Hu stood up quickly as she spoke, stretched out her hand to support her father, and blocked the old fox's tail from behind.
In fact, the moment the old fox revealed his tail, Jiang Hao's eyes swept across the big red tail. However, he had already known the identity of the old fox, so he was not surprised at all and pretended not to know.
"Daughter, don't worry about me, I want to drink. Scholar Jiang, how dare you do what we did!" The old fox didn't know that he had shown his cowardice and was still yelling at Jiang Hao.
At this moment, Hu Xinyue looked at Jiang Hao with a pleading look in her eyes. Those big eyes seemed to be able to talk, wanting Jiang Hao to end it.
Jiang Hao naturally understood the woman's meaning, blinked his eyes, pretended to be a little confused, put down the wine jar and cupped his hands to Mr. Hu, "Weng Hu, Mr. Jiang is too drunk, so let's stop here today."
Jiang Hao could clearly see that he was relieved from Hu Xinyue's expression, and he looked at Jiang Hao with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.
"Hu Quan, please invite Mr. Jiang to the living room to drink tea. I will help father rest." Miss Hu said quickly.
When Hu heard Jiang Hao's surrender, he burst into laughter and said, "I knew you couldn't drink me. I'm so powerful that I won't get drunk after a thousand cups."
Miss Hu was startled, fearing that her father would miss something when he was drunk, so she quickly answered and persuaded him: "Father, you are drunk."
"Daughter, I'm not drunk, I'm very fine." The old fox said with a smile, his speech was a little slurred.
Hu Quan quickly came to Jiang Hao, cleverly blocked the front, bowed and invited Jiang Hao to the living room. Jiang Hao nodded and followed Hu Quan to leave. Hu Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Jiang Hao leaving the restaurant, and hurriedly Call some servants of the Fox clan to come over and help my father go back to his room to rest.
When they arrived at the bedroom, the old fox became even more drunk. After covering himself with the quilt, he fell into a deep sleep. Hu Xinyue ordered people to watch, and after thinking for a while, he came to the living room.
At this time, Jiang Hao was sitting in the living room, drinking tea leisurely, without any drunkenness.
Hu Xinyue bowed slightly to Jiang Hao and apologized: "Mr. Jiang, I'm so sorry, my father can't hold his liquor and has already gone to bed. I'm sorry for the hospitality today."
Jiang Hao stood up, "It's Jiang who was abrupt, and I also want to thank Mr. Hu for the hospitality. It's getting late, and Jiang should also say goodbye."
"I'll see you off, Mr. Jiang." Miss Hu said.
Watching Jiang Hao's carriage leave, Miss Hu thought, my father doesn't like to drink on weekdays, why did he drink so much today?
The old fox had profound skills. When he woke up at night, he knew that Jiang Hao was not drunk at all, so he drove away early. He said with some annoyance: "I wanted to give him a chance to get close to my daughter, but I didn't expect him to be drunk. Is it really God's will?"
Jiang Hao didn't know that because of his caution, he missed an opportunity to get close to a beautiful woman.
The county exam was only two months away from the prefectural exam. Anyway, there was nothing to do at home, so Jiang Hao decided to go there early to familiarize himself with the environment in advance and appreciate the style of Jinhua.
After two busy days of issuing various documents in the county government, Jiang Hao drove the carriage on the road. Lanxi is not far from Jinhua, only about 60 or 70 miles away. The official road and waterway are unobstructed, and it can be reached in one day. Anyway, there is nothing to do, so Jiang Hao let the horse go slowly along the official road, and he lay in the carriage to take a nap.
Suddenly,
Jiang Hao heard a noisy sound in his ears, there were women screaming, children crying, and urgent calls for help.
"Help, the monster is eating people."
"Mother, mother help!"
"Wu Wa, my Wu Wa!"
"You guys swim up quickly, quickly!"
Knowing that something must have happened, Jiang Hao opened his eyes with a start, rushed out of the carriage, and found that the carriage was walking on a stone bridge. The sound came from under the bridge. The river was about 20 to 30 meters wide, and the water in the middle of the river was green, which could be seen to be very deep.
A group of women stood by the river, with wooden basins and clothes beside them. They must have come to the river to wash clothes. Several children aged seven or eight or ten in the river were swimming desperately towards the shore, and a child in the middle seemed to be dragged by something. He struggled a few times, and the underwater one pulled the child down violently.
"Ah~~Wu Wa!"
A woman screamed miserably.
At this moment, a huge figure suddenly jumped up from below, revealing half of its body. Jiang Hao saw a huge fish head, with a big mouth comparable to an oil barrel. The underwater body was four or five meters long. Jiang Hao was also shocked. What a big catfish.
The catfish pursed its lips, and the pair of children's feet that had just been exposed disappeared in an instant. The big tail shook and rushed towards the slowest child.
"Shan Wa Zi, Shan Wa Zi, swim faster, the monster is coming towards you." Another woman on the shore saw the big fish chasing her child and screamed anxiously.
The child's swimming speed was much faster than the fish in the water. In the blink of an eye, the child named Shanwa was caught up. The fish opened its mouth and suddenly swallowed Shanwa's waist. Shanwa's upper body was exposed and he screamed in fear.
"Mom, mom, help me!"
"Shanwa~!"
The woman on the shore screamed and wanted to jump into the water to save her child, but was caught by other women.
"Shanwa mother, the monster will eat you."
"My Shanwa!" The woman stretched out her hand to her son, hoping to catch him.
Jiang Hao frowned. He felt a demonic aura from the big fish. Although it was not strong, it was already a fish demon.
Whoosh~!
Jiang Hao stepped on the bridge pier and rushed downwards, flying across the water. The fish demon was about to swallow the child in its mouth. Jiang Hao flew over him, turned around and dived headfirst, with an exorcism talisman in his hand.
"Bang!"
The exorcism talisman burned, and Jiang Hao landed on the top of the fish monster's head. He slapped it with his palm, and the fish monster's body shook violently, opening its mouth in pain.
Jiang Hao took the opportunity to grab the child in the big fish's mouth and pushed it forward. The child flew out and flew towards the child's mother. The mother saw the child flying over and hugged her son fiercely.
"Wow wow wow~~!"
The child was so scared that he cried loudly. The mother hugged the child and kept comforting him, "Shanwa, don't cry, Shanwa, don't cry, mother is here."
At this time, the other children had already landed, and the women each held their own children away from the river. Only the mother of the fifth child stood in the river and cried loudly.
"Immortal, please save my child."
Jiang Hao's exorcism talisman made the big fish in great pain. It struggled hard in the water, and the stirred river water splashed. Jiang Hao borrowed the power from the big fish, and a spear appeared in his hand. He recited the demon-killing spell and stabbed the spear deeply into the catfish's head.
"Get on!"
Swoosh~!
This huge catfish was actually stabbed by Jiang Hao's spear and flew dozens of meters away, and fell heavily on the shore.
The fish monster was powerful in the water, but it was eight points weaker out of the water. It struggled hard on the shore. Jiang Hao's feet touched the water surface, and his body flew to the shore. The spear stabbed out fiercely, piercing the big fish's head and pinning it to the ground.
The big catfish struggled desperately in pain, fanning the dust.
"Five Thunder Palm!"
Bang!
Jiang Hao slapped the catfish's head hard, and his spiritual power burst out, which immediately hit the fish monster's brain and soul out of its body. The fish monster's tail fluttered twice and finally stopped moving.
"Ah, give me back my child, give me back my child."
The woman whose child was eaten ran over crying and beat the big fish's body hard, crying and shouting while beating.
The other women hid far away with their children.
Jiang Hao shouted to the woman: "Stop first, the child may still be saved."
When the woman heard that she could still be saved, she immediately stopped. Jiang Hao pulled out his spear, pointed it at the fish, and immediately turned the fish over, revealing its big white belly. He waved his hand, and there was a long sword in his hand. The sword screamed. Take it out of its sheath and make a stroke on the fish's belly.
With a pop, the fish intestines were scattered all over the floor, with a child's body in the middle.
When the woman saw the child's body, she stepped forward crying and picked up the child, only to find that the child had lost his breath.
"My fifth baby, wuwuwuwu~!" the woman cried out in pain.
Jiang Hao squatted down and checked the child's breathing. He was indeed not breathing, but there was still a weak heartbeat. It was obvious that he had just held his breath. He said to the woman, "Don't cry in a hurry. Maybe there is hope. Let me try."
When the woman heard that she could be saved, she hurriedly handed the child to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao took the child, slapped the child on the back, and injected a spiritual power, which quickly circulated throughout the body.
"Ahem!"
The child coughed violently and slowly opened his eyes.
When the woman saw the child waking up, she rushed forward desperately and hugged the child, "My fifth baby is alive, alive."
After speaking, he knelt down to Jiang Hao and said, "Thank you, immortal, for saving my life. Thank you, immortal, for saving my fifth child."
Seeing Jiang Hao resuscitate the dead child, others came forward, especially Shanwa's mother, who also thanked Jiang Hao profusely.
"I wonder if there are any monsters in the river. You should leave as soon as possible." Jiang Hao said.
When the women heard this, they were so frightened that they quickly picked up the wooden basins by the river and left with their children. From now on, I am afraid that they will never dare to wash clothes by this river again.
When the women all walked away, Jiang Hao looked at the big fish and found that the evil spirit on the big fish was still there. Jiang Hao was moved in his heart. He chanted a spell in his mouth and opened his eyes, and found that the fish spirit had not yet dispersed. It was above the big fish's head. He kept twisting and fluttering, trying to get back into his body.
"Hmph, the man-eating monster still wants to live."
Jiang Hao snorted coldly, took out the purple gold gourd from the space, input spiritual power and sucked the fish demon's soul. An invisible big hand immediately grabbed the fish demon's soul. The fish demon screamed and was sucked in with a swish. gourd.
Jiang Hao called out Zhu Guang, put him in the purple gold gourd, and said, "Zhu Guang, this fish demon's soul is just for you."
Zhu Guang was overjoyed and rushed towards the fish demon. The fish demon turned around and ran away in fright. Zhu Guang chased after him. Seeing that he couldn't escape, the fish demon's soul turned around and opened its mouth to devour Zhu Guang. Zhu Guang's hand A butcher's knife suddenly appeared on the top, and it slashed through, immediately splitting the fish demon's soul into two halves.
The poor fish demon died once again in the purple gold gourd. Zhu Guang grabbed the fish demon's soul, opened his big mouth and kept biting, and was devoured by Zhu Guang in three or five strokes.
“So comfortable!”
Zhu Guang shouted and then went to practice.
Outside, Jiang Hao made another discovery. He felt spiritual power emanating from the top of the big fish's head. His heart moved and he thrust his sword towards it. Then a green bead flew out and Jiang Hao caught it.
Although the beads came from fish brains, they were not dirty at all. They were clean and radiated spiritual power.
Although it was the first time he saw it, Jiang Hao was sure that it was a demon pill!
nice one!
I have studied magic crystals in the beast-blood world and used magic crystals as medicine to refine elixirs. There are demon elixirs in this world. As long as you find the auxiliary medicine, you can also refine various elixirs.
Feeling the energy of the demon pill, this fish demon has almost three hundred years of cultivation. As for why it maintains the shape of a fish and does not transform, it may be due to lack of intelligence.
The transformation of monsters is related to cultivation and spiritual intelligence. The higher the spiritual intelligence, the easier it is to transform. Those monsters with low intelligence may not be able to transform even though they live longer. Of course, the situation of transformation is also different. They are not all the same. Some races with high bloodline will transform very late. In short, they are all different and cannot be generalized.
Jiang Hao happily accepted the demon pill.
I will find all the auxiliary medicines later and try to make an elixir in this world.
Finally, Jiang Hao looked at the big fish's body again, wondering if the fish's meat could be eaten?
Keep it for now and try later.
As a chef, how can you waste ingredients?
Jiang Hao stretched out his hand and took the whole big fish into the space.
He turned around and returned to the stone bridge, got back into the carriage, let the horse sway and rushed to Jinhua Mansion.
