Moon Deer Mountain is very deep and secluded, and there are countless birds and beasts in the mountain. Because of the existence of the monks of the Moon Deer Mountain Immortal Sect, many places in the mountainous area are cloudy and foggy all the year round, at least that's how ordinary people see it.

The rich animals and medicinal materials in the mountain, coupled with the long-standing strange legends and fairy tales of Yuelu Mountain, make the whole Yuelu Mountain very mysterious in the local area and in the surrounding area. It is a fairy mountain that people yearn for. , hunters, literati visiting the mountains and rivers, and people looking for fairy tales are in an endless stream throughout the year.

Now it is midsummer, and there are many people who come to enjoy the coolness in Yuelu Mountain.

Hu Li led a group of foxes, big and small, at the foot of the mountain to maintain their phantom. After entering the Yuelu Mountain, they all turned back into foxes. Some of them brought their own clothes and carried a bag on their shoulders. Scurry around.

In places like Xianjia Ferry, the confrontation between Xianxiu and monsters will not be so obvious, at least monsters that are not evil or have special concealment methods will not have any problems, of course the same is true for Hu Li and their fifteen spirit foxes.

Hu Li was still leading the way at the front, and the god-man surnamed Qin had taught them how to get around the maze of Yuelu Mountain, so their purpose of moving forward was very clear.

On one side, two middle-aged woodcutters were singing folk songs and carrying firewood on the mountain path. One of them suddenly saw a group of foxes rushing past the forest on one side, and even a fox was carrying a cloth bag. He was suddenly very surprised.

"Hey, look, look, there is a fox carrying a burden over there!"

"where?"

"Then, look!"

"Oh really! The fox is carrying so many burdens, isn't this a monster..."

The other woodcutter spoke cautiously, but the woodcutter in front looked excited.

"What are you afraid of? This is Yuelu Mountain. The older generation said that it is the place where the gods live. Some birds and beasts with spirituality will come here to worship the mountain. Let's follow and have a look?"

"Come on, hurry up and chop more firewood to go down the mountain..."

Seeing his companion like this, the woodcutter at the beginning patted his legs.

"Oh, you, you, what do we say about the old saying here? There are many immortals in Yuelu Mountain, so don't hesitate to meet the fairy trail... Think about it, when we met those two gentlemen, an old man and a young man, we should have followed them Yes, when I went back, Uncle Chen insisted that those two must be immortals, and he regretted not going with them at the beginning..."

When the companion heard the other party mentioning this matter again, he immediately laughed.

"Look at you, you've become obsessed. Let me bring this up again. Maybe those two gentlemen were literati who went outing in the mountains..."

"No, no, you forgot. At first I reminded the old gentleman that the mountain road they were going in was rough, and neither of them took it seriously. Later, after Uncle Chen reminded me, I also remembered that the two men were neatly dressed and not sweaty. You don't breathe red, don't you think about how old that old man with long beard and white hair looks..."

The companion shook his head impatiently.

"I forgot, how many years have passed, and you remember it so clearly? Stop daydreaming..."

"You, if you don't go, I will go by myself!"

When the woodcutter saw his companion mocking him like this, he was just agitated at first, but was suddenly aroused, and went to see what he said, and directly climbed up the side of the hillside with the firewood on his back.

"Hey~ hey~ are you really going? Hey..."

The other woodcutter yelled a few times, and saw that his companion was really walking and climbing to the high place, and soon disappeared, and suddenly froze in place a little at a loss.

Hu Li led the foxes in the mountains at a very fast speed. The woodcutter who was chasing him was delayed because of a few words, so he waited on the hillside where the foxes were seen. I saw the fox, but fortunately he remembered the direction, and walked forward for a while in disbelief.

The woodcutter was actually impulsive, and his thoughts at the moment were just a stress reaction to the sarcasm of his companions. He planned to go back after walking for a while, but he walked forward for a while, and when he stood at the top of the hill, he stepped on the ground. up.

"ah……"

The woodcutter, who had lost his center of gravity, rolled directly down the hillside, with branches and weeds crackling on his face for a while, and a lot of firewood behind his back fell out. Although it was a gentle slope, the straight down distance was at least seven or eight meters , and finally hit a tree with a "bang" before stopping.

"Aiyo...Aiyo...It hurts me to death...Li Er, Er Zi...Aiyo..."

The woodcutter felt pain all over his body when he moved, and he yelled weakly for a while, but he couldn't spread it very far. At this moment, his mind was full of remorse and annoyance. Why did he chase after him like he was fascinated? How could the key be missed? ...

Although this mountain is relatively safe, it is not without ferocious beasts, especially at night, the woodcutter can only hope that he can rest for a while to relieve the pain, hope that there is nothing serious about him, and hope that his companions will come to him, otherwise if It's dangerous if you can't get out of the mountain after dark.

"Shushasha...shashasha..."

Not far away, there was a rustling sound from the bushes, which frightened the woodcutter. Enduring the pain, he stretched his right hand behind his back, and pulled out a hatchet from the shelf behind him.

"Who's there? Who is it? What is it? I have a knife in my hand..."

Just when the woodcutter was very nervous, a boy with red lips and white teeth came out from the other side. This boy was holding a twig with some green leaves and buds in his hand. As soon as he came out, he walked and said in a complaining tone.

"You, don't you look at the road when you walk on the mountain road? Thanks to you, you are still a woodcutter who goes into the mountain to collect firewood! Can you walk?"

People's mentality is sometimes weird. When the woodcutter sees the young man cursing like this, he has a feeling that he wants to stay away from trouble but has to deal with it. He feels relieved. Besides, such a young man can't be a strongman, right?

"I'm asking you something, can you go by yourself?"

"Ah? Oh, here, let me try again..."

The woodcutter frowned and tried to stand up, but his left leg hurt so badly that he couldn't stand up after struggling.

"Okay, okay, let me help you, it's really troublesome..."

The boy quickly walked up to the woodcutter and came to help the woodcutter. Although he looked at the boy, he had a lot of strength and directly pulled the woodcutter up.

The woodcutter leaned on the young man to support his balance. Before he could speak, the latter asked directly.

"Let's go, I'll take you back, I'll help you go, by the way, hold this for me, how can you live here?"

The boy first put the woodcutter's right hand on his shoulder, and then handed the branch in his hand to the woodcutter.

"I can hold it, I can hold it, thank you, thank you..."

The woodcutter thanked him again and again, and he felt a faint sense of excitement in his heart. This young man suddenly appeared, and he was so handsome. I am afraid that he has met a fairy, maybe it is his destiny!

Ever since, the woodcutter began to chat with the boy non-stop.

"I often cut firewood in the Moon Deer Mountain. I have heard many stories about the mountains since I was a child. I heard that there are real gods in the mountains. This time I saw a group of foxes walking with backpacks. I felt curious and followed them to see them. Look, I want to ask for a fairy fate, who would have thought that I almost lost my life, and I would like to thank the young man..."

The boy was carrying the woodcutter forward, and the sloping hillside was like walking on the ground under his feet. Even with a person, he still walked steadily and at a fast pace. Hearing the woodcutter's words, the boy grinned directly.

"You are indeed a person with fairy fate, especially this time when you see a fox and move, you have already taken root."

The woodcutter was overjoyed, and even felt that the pain on his body was relieved a lot, so he hurriedly asked questions with excitement.

"Could it be that the young man is the fairy boy in the mountains? Could it be that you are the one who led me to the fairyland? I...I..."

"Hey, hey...don't be so excited, I'm not the one who leads you into the fairyland, and I said that you are destined to be immortal, but there are so many people in this world who are destined to have no distinction, it's like this between men and women, The same is true for Xianxiu's chance."

"Ah...then I...I still want Xiantong to teach me...I..."

The young man was smiling but not smiling, with an inexplicable look deep in his eyes, and ignored the woodcutter.

Seeing that the other party was ignoring him, the woodcutter wanted to say something but didn't dare to say more, so he could only limp, let the young man carry him up the hillside, and then returned to the original road.

I don't know why, when I went back, I went very fast, and not long after, I saw another woodcutter still walking out on the mountain road.

"This is your companion, let him take you back, I won't send you back."

After the young man said this, the woodcutter felt that the side was empty, and he almost fell down again. When he looked to the side, the young man who was supporting him just now had disappeared, but the branch in his hand was still there.

'This... Could this be my fairy fate? '

The more the woodcutter thought about it, the more excited he became, and he shouted at his companions in the distance.

"Li Er...Li Er..."

"ah?"

Li Er looked back and saw the woodcutter who came not far behind him. Seeing that he was limping and had scratches on his face and hands, he ran over immediately.

"Why are you so careless? Hey you, are you still laughing? What's in your hand? It looks like a peach branch, it's not right, it's the season, the peach branch can't be blooming..."

"Walk, walk, go back and talk back and talk..."

The woodcutter's face was full of excitement, and he tightly grasped the peach branch in his hand. What he didn't notice was that the buds on the peach branch seemed to be a little redder.

Somewhere on the mountain, a young man with red lips and white teeth squatted there, smiling and looking at the two woodcutters in the distance, then turned his gaze to the depths of Yuelu Mountain, and seemed to see a dozen foxes jumping forward in the distance.
