Fox Demon: This is the Guardian Blade

Chapter 36: The Joyful Mr. Xu

The moment the forehead touched the jade slip.

The knowledge of sound transmission magic was deeply imprinted in Xu Wu's mind.

At this moment, the jade slip turned into powder and dissipated the moment Xu Wu finished absorbing it.

"Practice it carefully. There's a simple spell inside that allows you to speak fully, as well as the most common cultivation method. Once you've cultivated enough mana, you should be able to use it. If you have any questions, ask Fanyin. We'll stay here for a while..."

When Xu Wu opened his eyes, he heard Chen Gou's voice coming faintly.

Xu Wu couldn't help but feel warm in his heart as he looked at Chen Gou's appearance.

It seemed as if she wanted to remember him forever, and remember the kindness Uncle Chen had shown her...

After a while... at Xu Wu's home...

Xu Wu's home is a mud house built with adobe mixed with some other materials. The house is not big.

There is an adobe wall around the house, and Xu Wu's family raises some poultry in their small yard, just a few chickens and a yellow dog.

“Wangwang~! Gulugugu…!”

At this time, the yellow dog heard his owner leading two strangers to his home.

It suddenly jumped out from the doghouse at the corner of the gate and was about to pounce on the two people.

Fortunately, the big yellow dog was tied with an iron chain and could not touch Chen Gou who was far away. It could only straighten the chain and growl vigilantly to show the two men not to come close.

"Bang, bang, bang!~"

Seeing this, Xu Wu subconsciously picked up the hoe and knocked on the wood piled beside him, as if to tell the big yellow dog that these two were guests and he was not allowed to scare them.

Chen Gou looked at Xu Wu's skillful movements and couldn't help but think in his heart.

When Xu Wu couldn't speak, he must have used this method to tell his big yellow dog not to hurt guests, right?

The man and the dog are quite interesting. The dog is quite human-like. Chen Gou looks at the two of them and feels that they have a tacit understanding.

If he hadn't sensed that the big yellow dog didn't have any demonic power at all, he would have thought it was just a little demon with intelligence.

The big yellow dog heard Xu Wu's knocking sounds and smelled a familiar smell.

Its ferocious appearance soon turned into a well-behaved one. It swung its tail vigorously in the direction of Xu Wu, stuck out its tongue and made silly sounds.

"Woooo~!"

After putting the hoe away, Xu Wu came to the big yellow dog, squatted down, and gently stroked its furry head.

The big yellow dog also responded by half-rolling on the ground playfully, sticking out its tongue and rubbing its cheek against Xu Wu's palm, looking like it was enjoying it very much.

"This dog is to the eyes..."

Watching the man and the dog playing, Fanyin noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the yellow dog's eyes.

The dog's eyes are a cloudy white color, as if... it is a blind dog.

Hearing Fanyin's voice, Xu Wu stopped teasing his big yellow dog. He stood up and explained to Fanyin with a smile, "Sister Fan... this dog is called Xiao Huang. Grandpa picked it up a while ago... because it couldn't see, it was often bullied by the dogs in the same village. Grandpa took pity on it and adopted it. Xiao Huang is very well-behaved. Maybe it mistook you for bad people, so it's so aggressive. In fact, it's not aggressive at all! If you don't believe me, Sister Fan, just touch it!"

Seeing that Xu Wu was enthusiastically introducing the dog named Xiao Huang to her as if he was introducing his family, Fanyin did not refuse Xu Wu's kindness.

He then squatted down and stretched out his little hand to touch Xiao Huang's head.

Xiao Huang is very smart. Although he can't see, he knows that the person in front of him is not a bad person. He doesn't know if it's because of intuition.

Xiao Huang thought that the "person" in front of him was someone he couldn't afford to offend, so he easily obeyed Fanyin.

Fanyin touched Xiao Huang's hair and gave Xiao Huang a cleansing spell.

Fanyin soon became addicted to the furry touch, and even stretched out her arms and hugged Xiao Huang tightly.

Soft and warm!

It's like hugging a pillow!

Uh... From the perspective of Chen Gou and the others, Fanyin looked like she was holding a dog pillow that was almost as big as her.

As Fanyin held the dog, she couldn't help but think, "So that's how it is! Uncle Chen used to like to touch his tail and ears sometimes, too. Is this what it feels like? So addictive!"

Xiao Huang stood there at a loss, not daring to break free. It was not until Fanyin stopped that Xiao Huang hid beside Xu Wu with a wronged look on his face.

"Is Xiao Xu back?"

The movements of Xu Wu and his companions had alarmed the old man Xu "Xu Hufeng" in the house.

Under the eaves, Old Master Xu leaned on his cane and gently pushed open the wooden door. He immediately saw Chen Gou and Fanyin in the yard.

Moreover, the clothes they wore were better than the coarse cloth he was wearing, and their spirits and auras were not like those of ordinary people.

Old Master Xu concluded that these two people were not simple, but what made Old Master Xu uncertain was... the man looked somewhat familiar to him.

"Mr. Xu, long time no see! Do you still recognize me?"

After seeing the puzzled look on Mr. Xu's face, Chen Gou smiled and reminded Mr. Xu.

Old Master Xu had a good memory. After hearing Chen Gou's familiar voice, he remembered it.

I remember that was two or three years ago.

At that time, I met this man who looked down and out on the road. Not only was he dressed very strangely.

The man spoke strangely, but he seemed well-educated, so he agreed to let him take his ox cart to the city.

So Mr. Xu still has some impression of Chen Gou!

Mr. Xu's slightly frown finally relaxed, even though he and Chen Gou had only met once.

And it has been two or three years, but Mr. Xu still believes that this young man has good character.

"Xiao Xuwu~! Look, your grandfather's memory is much better than yours."

Fanyin poked Xu Wu's waist with her hand and chuckled.

The latter was so ashamed by what Fanyin said that his face turned red and he lowered his head immediately.

However, Fanyin's gaze was not on Xu Wu... but on...

Xiao Huang: “Σ(?д?|||)??”

Although Xiao Huang couldn't see, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

"grandfather!……."

At this moment, a childish voice was heard, which made Mr. Xu feel extremely kind.

The sudden call made Old Master Xu stunned. He quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of his grandson Xu Wu in disbelief.

"Xiao Xu...what's wrong with you...?"

When Mr. Xu saw that it was Xu Wu who was speaking, he couldn't believe it, but after Xu Wu's explanation, Mr. Xu finally understood.

It was the young man in front of him who cured his grandson, and he also knew magic!

I never expected that an unintentional action I took two or three years ago would receive such a surprising reward today.

"Mr. Xu, you're welcome to call me Xiao Chen! Treating Xu Wu is just a piece of cake. I just happened to pass by and saw Xu Wu working, so I came to take a look. Of course, I won't stay too long."

At this time, Chen Gou had appeared beside Mr. Xu without knowing when, and said in a leisurely tone.

"But... I still want to thank you... uh... Immortal... Xiao Chen, you cured Xiao Xu... If you don't mind, why don't you come to my humble abode and rest for a while before leaving?"

After learning that Xu Wu could speak again, Mr. Xu became even more enthusiastic towards Chen Gou and even invited Chen Gou and the others to come into the house and sit down.

Although he knew that Chen Gou said that people with ability might not like his poor place.

But Mr. Xu couldn't neglect them either. Everyone who comes is a guest, and that's Mr. Xu's attitude towards others.
