I, the transmigrated villain, please wait, gentle master.

Chapter 157 The Xiang River Breaks and the Jade Mountain Collapses (6)

There weren't many words that could be written on the wooden tablet, but Xuan Yu had at least three things to tell Si Wuxie:

First, Si Wuyou ran away and her whereabouts are unknown;

Secondly, Wangcai angered Judge Cui Jue, and they were about to have a falling out.

Thirdly, the Master of Taiji Hall is currently in the border market, which is extremely dangerous.

Xuan Yu wrote as concisely and clearly as possible. Wang Cai secretly glanced at it and said, "What does this have to do with my master? Why tell Si Wuxie that he's in the underworld? Isn't that redundant?"

Xuan Yu replied, "Is that so? Unnecessary? It seems your Palace Master is currently at the border market and has nothing to do with Si Wuyou's disappearance, but..."

Wangcai was confused. "But what?"

Xuan Yu did not answer him directly, but suddenly an idea came to mind.

He leaned out from the high eaves, pointed to a dark shadow in the dim light below, and asked, "What do you think that is?"

Wangcai looked in the direction he was pointing, but unfortunately, he was a bit dizzy from being high up and looking down, let alone being able to see what was below.

He glanced at it once and then turned away, covering his eyes and saying, "I don't know, I don't know what that is."

Xuan Yu said, "Then go down and investigate, then come back and tell me."

Wangcai pointed to himself, "Me? Me? You want me to go?!"

He muttered to himself, "You'd better go by yourself. I'm not as agile as you."

Xuan Yu said nothing, but suddenly revealed his cat claws, sharp and direct.

Wangcai wiped the bead of cold sweat from his forehead and vanished in an instant, leaving only a gentle breeze.

Xuan Yu had previously witnessed Wang Cai escaping with ease, and the Xie Zhi beast could not catch him no matter what. Presumably, his footwork was extremely powerful, and this round trip should be a piece of cake for him.

Sure enough, Lazy Dog returned quickly and said to him, "That's a small stall with all sorts of masks on it."

Xuan Yu asked, "What exactly are these masks, and what patterns are painted on them?"

Wangcai was stunned and said, "How would I know? I didn't look that closely."

Xuan Yu said, "Then take another look, and this time remember to look more carefully."

After waiting a while, Gouzi returned and said, "Most of them are Nuo opera masks, like gods, ghosts, and so on. They're ugly and hideous. There are also some common animal masks..."

As he spoke, he pulled out a puppy mask from behind his back, held it up in his hand and waved it. The mask was sculpted so vividly and realistically that he couldn't help but ask, "Do you think it's cuter or I'm cuter?"

And then he answered himself, "I must be the cutest, right? Hahaha!"

Xuan Yu ignored him, but deep down he thought that this dog, who could talk and laugh and even peddle his own wares, was the cutest. He slapped away Wangcai's right hand, which was about to put the mask on its face, and said coldly, "Don't be so clumsy. This thing is very strange. Put it back where it was."

Wangcai obeyed, made a special trip to put it away, and then ran back.

Xuan Yu said, "By the way, what was that mask made of?"

Wangcai replied, "I don't know... No, why didn't you ask me sooner? I could have touched it carefully!"

Xuan Yu thought to himself, "Whether I tell you sooner or later, you careless and stupid dog will never have that kind of meticulous mind. That's why I have to teach you this lesson."

Xuan Yu said expressionlessly, "Then take another look."

Wangcai's mouth is so pouty that it could hold three oil jugs.

He pouted, went back and forth again, and came back saying, "It looks like it's made of some kind of animal fur. My God, could it be dog skin?!"

The dog shuddered, raising goosebumps all over the floor.

"Oh, I see." Xuan Yu wasn't surprised at all, and then asked one last question: "How many masks were there on that stall in total?"

Wangcai: "..."

After running back and forth several times, even the fastest dog couldn't take it anymore, and finally gave up.

He sat down next to Xuan Yu, turned his head and said, "Are you deliberately making fun of me?"

Xuan Yu often hung out with Wang Cai, so he naturally knew that dogs are very simple animals. If you need to pee in the middle of the night and accidentally step on his foot, he will think that you deliberately got up in the dark to step on his foot.

"To make fun of you?" Xuan Yu chuckled. "It's clearly your own fault for not handling things properly; you deserve to run your legs off."

Wangcai then realized his hidden meaning, "...So you were targeting me here?"

Xuan Yu held up the wooden tablet used by the Yunlan Sect to transmit messages in front of him and asked, "Now, do you know what 'thoroughness' means? Every detail matters. Some messages may seem unnecessary to be stated explicitly, but if you handle things carelessly and make mistakes, wouldn't you suffer the consequences?"

Wangcai saw that several lines of writing had appeared out of nowhere on the wooden tablet, and reached out to snatch it, shouting, "A message has arrived!"

Xuan Yu stopped before him, not letting him see, but glancing at it himself from beginning to end, his expression subtly changing.

Wangcai, quick-witted and agile, insisted on getting a peek, but missed every time. He couldn't help but get slightly annoyed and said, "Why won't you let me see? What's the matter that you're hiding from me?"

Xuan Yu said, "If I don't want you to see it, I don't want you to see it. If I don't want you to know, I don't want you to know. Don't ask why. If you do, there's no reason."

He hooked his finger around the clasp at the top of the wooden tablet a few times, then hung it back on his waist. The writing on the tablet had disappeared, so he was no longer afraid of the stupid dog "sneaking" at him.

Wangcai said quietly, "Actually, just now, I smelled the scent of a fox demon. If you don't tell me what message Si Wuxie sent you, I won't tell you where the source of that demonic aura is, and I won't let you find Si Wuyou quickly!"

Xuan Yu pointed to the glazed tiles at his feet and asked without any surprise, "It's in this brothel, isn't it?"

Wangcai was startled and realized that he was being tricked, so he lied and said, "No, that's not true! Don't make wild guesses."

Xuan Yu slapped his dog head, turning it askew. "You think you can fool me? You just climbed up and down this building, scaling walls and rooftops, and you haven't been anywhere else. Since you smelled the fox demon's scent, that means Si Wuyou is nearby."

Wangcai grumbled, "Alright, I can't hide it from you anymore. But please, just tell me what words you saw on the wooden tablet!"

"You know I'm very curious. Either you don't let me know in the first place, or you don't hide anything from me from the beginning."

"Otherwise, I won't have peace of mind for a day if I don't know the truth, and I'll feel uncomfortable for an hour if I don't know the truth. I feel like countless tiny insects are crawling all over my body..."

Wangcai grabbed his arm, rubbed against him, and wagged its tail. "Ah, kitty, please tell me, please."

Xuan Yu pushed his head away, "Curiosity killed the dog, you'd better not know."

Actually, he didn't have anything he wanted to hide from Gouzi. However, behind this stupid dog was the Taiji Palace, and its master was Li Tingyun, so he had no choice but to keep it a secret.

Because Si Wuxie's only reply to him was to find Si Wuyou as soon as possible, and to make sure that this foolish fox didn't run into the Lord of Taiji Palace.

She is a vessel for the furnace.

If Li Tingyun catches him, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Xuan Yu and Si Wuxie had lived together for so many years, but he never knew how special Si Wuyou's constitution was. He only gleaned some information from Si Wuxie's level of concern for her, and vaguely sensed that his sister might be a natural troublemaker.

Little did they know that she was actually a furnace vessel.

No wonder, Si Wuxie's protection of her sometimes seemed so "extreme".

Si Wuxie knew that if a descendant of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan wanted to truly become a great demon, he had to overcome nine tribulations, one of which was a love tribulation—he was most afraid that Si Wuyou would get involved in this!

The fox clan is predominantly female, and each one is an unparalleled beauty, born with a face capable of causing the downfall of a nation. As the saying goes, beautiful women often have tragic fates; women who are too beautiful are always destined to suffer the trials of love. For them, the tribulations of love are tantamount to death, even more terrifying than death itself.

Based on Si Wuxie's understanding of his younger sister, if she were to encounter the Tribulation of Love, she would undoubtedly die!

Their biological mother died at the hands of her lover on the day she gave birth while pregnant.

Their biological father, Yun Songhe, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect, was a playboy and womanizer who personally dug out her demon core.

In the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, countless people die from the entanglements of love, some even more tragically than having their demon cores extracted by their lovers. If their clan had a genealogy or ancestral precepts, they would surely write: Beginning for love, trapped by love, ending for love.

Si Wuxie is an anomaly, and also an extraordinary person.

He was one of the few men in the fox clan who encountered a love tribulation early in his life, but managed to overcome it smoothly.

Many of his fox friends sought his advice, and his experience can be summarized in two words: ruthless.

If you're ruthless enough to eliminate your destined partner beforehand, everything will be fine.

To avoid mistaking someone for someone else, it's better to kill ten thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free.

Not everyone can be as ruthless as him.

Many people would cry out, "I can't do it!"

Of all the tribulations, the tribulations of love seem to be the most difficult. Often, those involved are confused while bystanders see things clearly. Some drown in the river of love, while others stand on the shore feeling the cool breeze. It cannot be said that one is more clear-headed than the other; it can only be said that they fall into the water at different times.

People who fall into the water don't know when they fell in, but by the time they realize it, they are already drowning. The way they fall into the water is very pathetic, especially in the eyes of those who consider themselves clear-headed on the shore; it looks incredibly ugly.

But if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet; everyone has a ditch where they might capsize.

No matter who it is, once a boat capsizes and someone falls into the water, it will be difficult for them to save themselves.

Even those who are skilled in swimming dare not say they can conquer every river.

Si Wuyou was born with the body of a furnace, and she will face more complex and deadly dangers. Si Wuxie thought of taking his sister's place to help her get rid of the tribulation she was destined to face, but he couldn't just sit around doing nothing and focus all his attention on her.

Therefore, the easiest way is to lock her up.

However, she couldn't be kept inside; Si Wuyou always found a way to sneak out.

The same situation occurred again this time.

Xuan Yu thought to himself, for many years, Si Wuxie had never let him know that Si Wuyou was a furnace body, but now he was telling him the truth at this time, which showed that the situation was urgent and Si Wuxie must be feeling extremely flustered at this moment.

"Wangcai, I heard that your master has been searching for a suitable vessel for dual cultivation... Is he doing this for dual cultivation?"

After Xuan Yu finished speaking, he shook his robe, turned around and transformed into a black cat, jumping down from the rooftops.

Needless to say, the dog will definitely keep up with him.

Wangcai simultaneously underwent a magnificent transformation, its four hooves following closely behind, saying as it chased after him, "Yes, that's right! Master is definitely looking for a furnace for dual cultivation."

The dog answered decisively, "My master is very lecherous, woof! He likes fair-skinned, beautiful women with long legs, who are gentle, considerate, and virtuous, woof woof! And he doesn't discriminate between men and women, he can accept either, woof woof woof!"

Gouzi firmly believed that Li Tingyun was a lecherous man. The reason he kept pestering Mei Shiyu was because he had taken a fancy to the immortal's face and kidnapped her to his side without saying a word. The two of them even had an unspeakable affair in the alchemy room.

That day, he happened to be passing by, and his ears were so perked up that he heard everything, whether he should or shouldn't have heard it!

Upon hearing Wangcai's confident answer, Xuan Yu suddenly stopped, spun around gracefully, and exhaled, "And you? Have you ever practiced dual cultivation with anyone?"

Wangcai excitedly said, "No, do you want to try it with me? I can finally go to bed and not have to sleep on the floor tiles anymore?!"

Xuan Yu said, "...I never let you sleep on the floor, but you insisted on not going back to your own home."

Wangcai said, "My bed isn't as comfortable as yours."

Xuan Yu said, "My family only has one bed."

Wangcai said, "But it can sleep two people!"

"Meow!"

"Ow!"

The dog has three more scratches on its face.

A cat and a dog didn't use the main entrance; instead, they slipped in through an open window.

The dog has a keen sense of smell. A strange and mixed fragrance entered his nostrils, causing him to sneeze several times. He couldn't help but think of what the cat had said earlier.

Is this... a brothel?

Wow, so enthusiastic and unrestrained!

Wangcai caught the black cat's raised tail in its mouth. At this moment, they were hiding under a table. The trailing red silk completely covered the space under the table. From time to time, the crisp sound of cups and plates clinking together came from the table above. The black cat, its tail bitten, turned its head and looked at the dog suspiciously.

Wangcai asked solemnly, "Can I really sleep in the same bed with you tonight?"

Xuanmao calmly said, "Okay. But we still have a mission to complete, so let's not think about sleeping tonight. Now, let's split up and go find Si Wuyou."

Wangcai blinked, nodded, and said, "Wait a minute, I have another question!"

The black cat said, "Speak."

Wangcai said, "Why do we have to scurry around like mice?"

Wouldn't it be better to step forward, take human form, and look for people openly and honestly?

If they're afraid of alerting Si Wuyou and wanting to run away as soon as she sees them, then they should just temporarily change into appearances she doesn't recognize and show themselves in disguise, wouldn't that be better?

Their line of sight is too low; they have to look up to see people. And if they just appear in front of people like that, they'll probably be mistaken for stray cats or stray dogs and chased away.

Xuan Yu said, "Fox demons are good at transformation. When Si Wuyou comes out to play, she usually doesn't show her true appearance. You don't need to see what she looks like. As long as you can smell the demonic aura on her, you'll be pretty sure it's her."

"Furthermore, although that fox is very elusive, she has a red rope tied to her ankle with a bell attached. By lying on the ground like this, it's easier for us to observe her."

"Finally, let's act quickly so that no one notices and we don't cause any trouble, okay?"

Wangcai thought to himself, "The cat is right. Anyway, they can blend into the crowd, making them a small target and easy to hide. They can hide under chairs, benches, tables, anywhere, and they won't be discovered."

He then said, "Alright, let's split up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black cat disappeared, and when the dog turned his head, he saw a leg sticking out.

That's right, a leg, a white, fleshy thigh, was stretched under the table.

Immediately afterwards, a woman slowly crawled in, swaying her hips.

He crawled between the legs of a man sitting on the edge of the table.

The woman calmly tucked the stray strands of hair from her forehead behind her ear.

Her hands caressed the man's thighs...

Wangcai prostrated himself, covered his eyes with his forelimbs, stuck out his big buttocks, and silently chanted "I have no intention of disturbing you," "Don't look at what is improper," and "You can't see me," before wriggling away from the scene of the crime like a maggot.

Unexpectedly, the woman kicked out with both legs, landing a blow on Wangcai. The moment her skin touched the dog's fur, she trembled all over, screaming, "Ahhh! What is that! It's alive, it's alive!"

The woman screamed in terror, her head slamming against the table with a thud, which knocked the table over!

There was an uproar.

In a panic, Wangcai transformed into human form and plopped down on the ground.

The man was seen clenching his groin, the woman was covering her mouth, and a large crowd around them stared in astonishment at the three of them.

Wangcai was at a loss, his face turning red. "I didn't, I didn't, why are you looking at me!"

They seemed to be watching some kind of "caught in the act" threesome drama!

Wangcai was on the verge of tears.

He's just too naive!

Who says you won't be discovered if you hide under a table?!
