White Fox Spirit Outsmarts the Book of Heaven

Wei Cheng was the son of an official from Fanzhou. His ancestor had also risen to fame, leaving behind a large mansion and hundreds of acres of real estate. Although he was a bit down and out when it was passed on to his generation, he only had a false reputation, and his life was passable.

On weekdays, Wei Cheng liked to hunt, and every now and then he would take a dog and an eagle to the mountains with a few friends to play.

On this day, Wei Cheng made an appointment with a few more friends and prepared to go hunting at Dongming Mountain, which is more than 30 miles from Fanzhou City.

There were also Taoists who cultivated immortals in this cave. I heard that there were also people who rose during the day, but they were all spread by the mouths of the common people of Fan Zhou, and no one had seen them.

Everyone had never seen the immortals of Cave Mountain before, but there were quite a few beasts inside. They were very popular with wealthy children like Wei Cheng. They could gain something in a day, and they would not lose face.

Wei Cheng arrived at the city gate early in the morning and waited. Who knew that something urgent was happening to his friend and they couldn't go to Dongming Mountain together. Let him go first.

When Wei Cheng heard this, he had no choice but to set off with hunting supplies. After telling his friends about Dongming Mountain, he waited for them to go up the mountain together.

After arriving at the foot of the mountain, he temporarily put the things he brought to a familiar family's house. Then he led his hound and carried a long bow to walk nearby. He thought that if he could meet one or two wild pheasants or mountain rabbits, they could be used as wine dishes.

As he walked and walked, suddenly his hound began to whimper in a low voice, and then began to bark at the mountains and trees not far away.

Wei Cheng immediately looked in the direction of the hound barking, and saw a fat mountain hare squatting under an old tree, looking at the hound in horror.

"Go!"  Wei Cheng naturally wouldn't let go of this good opportunity, and immediately loosened the rope around the hound's neck.

The hound rushed towards the mountain hare like an arrow from the string. The mountain hare immediately turned and fled when it saw this, and the dog and rabbit immediately chased after it on the mountain ridge.

Wei Cheng quickly followed with his longbow and chased along the faint path in the mountains. He chased for two or three miles. The hound stopped in front of a valley and kept circling there, seemingly losing the trail of the mountain hare.

Wei Cheng was a little strange. His hound had been trained for a long time, let alone a mountain rabbit, even a wild pheasant flying in the sky could catch up. What happened today?

Just as Wei Cheng was wondering, he suddenly saw that the mountain hare that he was chasing was in the bushes not far away, looking around there, and he kicked the hound in displeasure.

"What are you doing to eat, I raised you for nothing, why can't I find that rabbit right in front of me?" Wei Cheng roared.

The hound was a little wronged by Wei Cheng's kick, and it kept whimpering there, but it refused to chase the mountain hare in the valley.

Wei Cheng didn't care too much at this time, and immediately opened his bow and arrows to aim at the mountain rabbit not far away.

Just as he was about to shoot, Mountain Rabbit seemed to notice something. He turned around and immediately ran into the valley. Wei Cheng immediately prepared to chase after him.

The hound kept circling by the side, seemingly preventing Wei Cheng from moving forward.

Seeing that the hare was about to escape, Wei Cheng was so angry that he kicked the hound again and chased after it.

After chasing in the valley for less than a mile, Wei Cheng saw the hare burrow into a small cave and disappeared.

Seeing this, Wei Cheng immediately went to the cave and took a closer look. It was not a cave, but the entrance to an ancient tomb.

The ancient tomb seemed to be hundreds of years old, and it was in disrepair. A ray of sunlight shone through the hole the hare had drilled into, and the inside of the ancient tomb could be clearly seen.

There are ready-made tables, chairs and beds in the ancient tomb, which are arranged like a cave.

Wei Cheng had heard that there were Taoists cultivating in this cave. Could it be that they lived in such an ancient, abandoned tomb?

With a sense of curiosity, Wei Cheng looked inside again and was surprised to see a huge coffin in the depths of the ancient tomb, with exquisite patterns drawn on it, which looked golden and resplendent in the sunlight.

However, all this is not worth mentioning at all compared to what was seen after Weicheng.

I saw a white fox leaning against the coffin, holding an ancient book in his hand facing the sun, reading there seriously, looking very much like a student studying hard in a cold window.

This situation immediately stunned Wei Cheng. The white fox alone had already made him very excited. The white fox could still read.

Unfortunately, the arrow landed on the coffin and did not hit the fox.

After the fox was frightened, he immediately fled in panic, and even looked back at Wei Cheng, his eyes full of horror.

Seeing the fox running away, Wei Cheng was about to leave when he suddenly saw the fox running away and threw the ancient book in his hand.

Wei Cheng thought about it for a long time, but in the end, curiosity overcame everything. He carefully entered the ancient tomb and took the ancient book left by the fox.

After returning to the valley, Wei Cheng opened the ancient book, but found that it was filled with some strange tadesque characters, and he couldn't understand a single word. He felt that this thing should be some years old, maybe it could be worth some money, so he took the old book back.

Wei Cheng had no choice but to go hunting with the ancient book. He went straight back to Fanzhou City from Dongming Mountain. He didn't even have time to enter his house, so he found a few antique shops in the city and asked them to show the value of the ancient book.

Who knew that the owners and buddies of these antique shops all said that this was an old book that was not worth much money. As for the tadpoles on it, it should have been drawn by some people as a prank, and it was not written at all.

Wei Cheng was a bit annoyed. He didn't catch the rabbit, and neither did the fox. In the end, he found such a broken book, which was not worth much money, but it was really a big loss.

Before his butt got hot, he heard a servant come to report that a Mr. Bai was coming to visit outside.

Wei Cheng was a little confused. He didn't know Mr. Bai, but looking at the other party's gift invitation, he brought a lot of things. It seemed that he was not from an ordinary family, so he asked the servant to bring the guests.

Mr. Bai is a handsome young man with a gentle and elegant appearance. After seeing Wei Cheng, he is also very polite.

After the guest and host exchanged pleasantries, Wei Cheng immediately asked, "Where is Mr. Bai's home? I haven't seen it much before?"

Mr. Bai immediately said, "My family lives at the foot of Dongming Mountain and has been studying at home. I haven't made too many friends!"

As soon as Wei Cheng heard this, he immediately muttered in his heart. He had never heard of any wealthy or learned families in Dongming Mountain. There were some wild men there, and this Mr. Bai seemed to have an unknown origin!

"Mr. Bai came to the humble house this time, I don't know what you are doing?" Wei Cheng seemed to have thought of something and immediately asked.

"Has Mr. Wei made any unexpected gains recently?" Mr. Bai was still smiling.

"Accidental harvest?" Wei Cheng shook his head, "I just came back from hunting, let alone accidental harvest, even no serious harvest!"

"Tell me the truth!" Mr. Bai said, "I am the fox fairy in the ancient tomb of Dongming Mountain. Did you find an ancient book?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Wei Cheng's mouth. Of course, he guessed that Mr. Bai's origin was probably related to that fox.

Seeing what White Fox Immortal said, Wei Cheng naturally wouldn't hide it, "I did pick up a book!"

"Mr. Wei, as long as you return the book to me, our previous grudges will be written off, and I will give you a hundred taels of silver, how about that?"

One hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, and for Wei Cheng, it is at least enough for his expenses for a year.

Wei Cheng rolled his eyes and thought that this Mr. Bai claimed to be a fox fairy. Since he could offer a hundred taels of silver, more silver would probably not be a problem.

He immediately said: "No, I picked up this book, it's mine, if you want to buy a book from me, you don't need to negotiate if you don't have a thousand taels of silver!"

When White Fox Immortal heard this, his face was embarrassed. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll think about it, you must not leak this book!"

Wei Cheng immediately agreed, and after the White Fox Immortal left, he quickly took the ancient books from the thatched hut and found a hidden place to hide.

After two days, the White Fox Immortal came to Wei Cheng's house again, brought a thousand taels of silver with him, and placed it neatly in front of Wei Cheng.

Looking at the white silver in front of him, Wei Cheng was ecstatic.

"Mr. Wei, can you give me the book?" White Fox Immortal looked at Wei Cheng and asked.

"Then tell me what the origin of this book is first!" Wei Cheng immediately asked.

The White Fox Immortal hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "This book was invited by me from the Immortal Cave Mansion, and it is called the" Holy Yan Heavenly Book ". It is a heavenly book specially written for our beasts. In fact, you can't understand it even if you get it!"

Wei Cheng recognized this. In the past few days, he had copied many books for others to read. No one could understand these texts.

Hearing this, Wei Cheng regretted that the one thousand taels of silver he wanted was short. If he knew it was a heavenly book, he would have asked for a thousand taels of gold.

A smile immediately appeared on his face. He smiled and said to the White Fox Immortal, "Fox Immortal, since this is a Heavenly Book, then the previous price is probably not enough. I want a thousand taels of gold.

When White Fox Immortal heard this, a burst of anger immediately surged into his heart, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart. After all, the Heavenly Book was in the hands of others, and he could not snatch it, otherwise the Dao Fruit would be damaged.

In the end, the White Fox Immortal had to compromise: "Okay, a thousand taels of gold, I'll go back and think of a way!"

A few days later, the White Fox Immortal came to Wei Cheng's house again, this time with a thousand taels of gold.

Looking at the yellow gold in front of him, Wei Cheng seemed to be happy in his heart. He didn't expect so much gold in his hands in a blink of an eye.

"Mr. Wei, this is a thousand taels of gold. Can you give me the Book of Heaven?" White Fox Immortal asked.

Wei Cheng smiled, "You can read the Heavenly Book if you want, but you can only read it here. You can't take it away!"

The White Fox Immortal became anxious when he heard that. He pointed at Wei Cheng and said loudly that he broke his promise and got fat, but he didn't give him the Heavenly Book when he brought the gold.

Wei Cheng seemed to be holding back the gate of life that the White Fox Immortal did not dare to fight with, and insisted that as long as the White Fox Immortal gave him more gold and silver treasures and silk, he would let him see the book of heaven.

White Fox Immortal had no choice but to beg Wei Cheng to give him a few more days.

Seeing that the White Fox Immortal was soft, Wei Cheng was naturally proud. He told the White Fox Immortal, "You are limited to sending me 100,000 taels of gold and silver in three days. If you don't see it by then, I will destroy the Book of Heaven!"

"No, no, no! Don't do this, I'll get it for you right now!The White Fox Immortal hurriedly begged.

Looking at the figure of the White Fox Immortal leaving, Wei Cheng smiled proudly.

With so much gold and silver, Wei Cheng immediately began to spend time extravagantly, spending every day in banquets and banquets, not caring about the cost of gold and silver at all, with the face of an upstart.

The White Fox Immortal also knew that Wei Cheng wanted to use the Heavenly Book to control him and serve him.

Three days later, the White Fox Immortal came to Wei Cheng's house again. This time he brought a few large boxes, which were filled with all kinds of gold, silver, jewels, jade and jade. All kinds of rare objects were dazzling, and the whole house was illuminated with jewels.

White Fox Immortal told Wei Cheng that a batch of treasures would be delivered in a few days. Can I give him the Heavenly Book this time?

Wei Cheng was naturally overjoyed and agreed. White Fox Immortal looked greedily into Wei Cheng's eyes. He knew it was a white-eyed wolf that could not be fed enough.

After Wei Cheng obtained this batch of jewelry, he took out a few treasures and showed them to his friends, saying that they were found in his ancestral house.

Everyone knew that Wei Cheng's ancestors had developed, so they all complimented him one after another, wishing him to obtain the ancestral property and be able to be beautiful again.

One of the friends felt that something was wrong, because he seemed to have known a treasure that Wei Cheng brought, so he returned home with some doubts.

At that moment, he suddenly remembered that these treasures had been seen in the county governor's treasury.

Sure enough, a few days later, news came that the county governor's treasury had been stolen, and a large number of treasures had been stolen.

Wei Cheng was quickly arrested, and not only did he find a large amount of gold and silver, but also those precious treasures. After careful inspection, they were all hidden in the vault.

After Wei Cheng was locked up in prison, he didn't panic too much. He knew that the White Fox Immortal would definitely come to save him for the sake of the Heavenly Book.

Sure enough, on the day he was imprisoned, a jailer came to inquire, saying that there was a Mr. Bai who asked him to look after him and asked if there were any valuables at home that could save his life.

Wei Cheng knew that this was a plan set up by the White Fox Immortal and wanted to exchange the Heavenly Book for his freedom.

Wei Cheng immediately said to the jailer, "Tell Mr. Bai that if he does not rescue me from prison, he will never see that ancient book!"

The jailer quickly told Wei Cheng, "That Mr. Bai said he would only do things for you after seeing the book!"

It seems that the White Fox Immortal is not so easy to fool at this time. After thinking hard in prison, Wei Cheng said to the jailer, "Brother jailer, I have an ancient book that Mr. Bai dreamed of." Please show it to Mr. Bai and don't give it to him.

The jailer was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and promised that he would certainly get this done.

A few days later, the jailer came to the prison again and showed Wei Cheng the Book of Saint Yan.

"Young Master Wei, is that the old book ?"

Wei Cheng took a closer look. It was the one he had picked up in the ancient tomb, and then nodded.

"Take it for me, and show it to Mr. Bai, and he will rescue me; then I will give you a great deal of gold and silver, and I shall never be a jailer again."

The jailer laughed, then turned into the white fox fairy: "Wei Cheng, come and see who I am?"

Wei Cheng stared at the White Fox Immortal in front of him, dumbfounded.

White Fox Immortal held the Heavenly Book in his hand and said to Wei Cheng: "As long as you have a trace of good intentions in your heart, it will not be like this. Now you are insatiable and deserve it!"

After Wei Cheng heard this, he immediately collapsed there, begging the Immortal White Fox to save his life.

A few months later, Wei Cheng was beheaded and shown to the public. The onlookers only saw a white shadow passing by and heading towards Cave Mountain.
