Chapter 870: Making friends over a glass of wine, apple, so cute

The moonlight is tilting and dawn is approaching.

"Now you understand how powerful our demon fox clan is! The methods of illusion and transformation are totally incomprehensible to mere humans! Only stinky foxes can be on par with us." Wu Bai Zang felt that he had not spoken so many words in hundreds of years. He was deeply obsessed with the glory of the demon fox clan.

"You are a strange human, knowing just... a little bit of illusion..." He described it a little unconfidently, "You are different from ordinary humans."

"Although I feel that you don't look like a human at all, you do smell like a human. You are not a stinky fox who used the method of transformation to become a human, right?"

"It's clearly a communication, but why do I always feel like I've been tricked?"

The more Gobazo spoke, the more he doubted himself. Every time the other party displayed an illusion, he would try to get advice. He talked incessantly for a long time.

As soon as the other party opened his mouth, it seemed as if he spoke better and more profoundly than us, and his understanding of illusion was greater.

In order to save face, we can only select the core techniques of various magic illusions to compete in illusion insights.

Even in the art of transformation, real teaching was given.

Although I seem to have learned a lot, but... doesn't this mean that we humans are better at changing than raccoons?

"I have gained a lot from communicating with you." Jiang Yi flipped his palm, and a jar of moonlight-colored elemental wine appeared in his hand. The wine was rippling and the fragrance spread for miles. "This jar of wine is for you."

"What a nice smell, what a nice smell..." Gobazo sniffed hard, but unfortunately he was sealed like a stone statue and could not do this. He could only sense it with his mind.

The aroma of this wine penetrates deep into the soul and into the dreams.

"We..." Gobaizang suddenly became depressed, as if he couldn't drink.

The alcohol bug that had been craving for hundreds of years was aroused, scratching my heart.

"Yes, you can drink it." Jiang Yi stepped forward and swept his sleeves over to clear the fallen leaves and stagnant water in the stone bowl for Wu Baizang.

Pour the wine into this clean, huge stone bowl.

Gobaizang knew how to drink it. This was a special wine. When he wanted to drink it, the wine would turn into mist and flow into his body from his spirit.

He made comfortable, enjoyable, gurgling sounds while drinking.

The amount of wine in the big bowl kept decreasing.

"I am glad to have made a friend of yours." Gobazo laughed happily. "You can pick any fruit from the Guardian Forest. Oh! Leave some for the little raccoons."

"If you bring some wine next time, we can continue to exchange ideas on magic techniques." He began to make promises as he was drunk.

"Okay, okay!" Jiang Yi responded.

The entire jar of wine was emptied, and Wu Bai Zang drank it all up, burping.

"Good wine! Good wine!"

"Live a life of drunkenness and dreams!"

He felt the flavor and power of the wine.

"Such a strong smell of alcohol." Following the aroma of the wine, Paimon flew back, exhausted both physically and mentally.

It's really tiring to play hide-and-seek with those magic-capable raccoon cats.

On the way, she met a hillbilly who didn't sleep in the middle of the night and came to beat her up.

"Oh my! No matter who the guests are, as long as they come, we will treat them to drinks." Gobazo's voice sounded drunken.

"Huh? Is he drunk?" Paimon listened to Gobazo's nonsense.

"Isn't this obvious?" Ying felt that Paimon was talking nonsense.

Three little civet cats came over, two of them were black with white faces, green leaves on their heads, and wrapped in purple packages.

A brown one with a white face, black eye circles, and a green package.

Zhengcheng, the minor judge of the Ministry of Justice and Master Ji.

The three little cats sniffed the aroma of the wine, ran to Gobazo's arm, and licked the rim of the bowl.

Gobazo woke up in shock. Fortunately, he drank the wine in time, otherwise the little raccoons would get drunk and would fight in the forest. It would be bad if they were caught.

Communicated with the little raccoons.

"Yeah. Very well done. They are all very happy." Gobazo said to Ying and Paimon, "I... made new friends and I am very happy too."

"So a jar of wine can buy you off?" Paimeng said.

"Who said that? What he gave me was not just ordinary wine." Gobazo said angrily, "And I didn't make friends with him just for the sake of wine."

"Yeah. I'll believe it for now." Paimon saw through the truth at a glance.

"Ahem!" Gobazo changed the subject, "The little raccoons have something to ask you. You are obviously human, why do you smell like a raccoon?"

"...Yes! Explain clearly to us! Why do you have our smell on you?" He realized it belatedly.

Paimon spread his hands: "Are you confused now?"

"A masked miko gave us something very strange to eat..." Ying explained.

"Yes! The masked witch gave us a sumptuous meal. She said it was made using magic she stole from the raccoon clan. It tasted delicious, but it didn't fill me up." Paimon said.

Wu Bai Zang excitedly said, his voice twice as loud as before: "What? You dare to steal our magic..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

It seemed like there were crows flying across the sky.

The three little raccoon cats looked at Gobaicang. They had been playing for so long because Gobaicang was so engrossed in exchanging spells with the male human that he ignored them completely.

"Ahem! These two things are totally different!" Gobazo listened to the three little raccoons' questioning, "That one is stealing, do you understand? This one is communication, do you understand? He even gave us some wine."

"I'm doing this to prove that the illusion skills of the raccoon demon clan should not be underestimated by humans!" He muttered the profound principles that the three little raccoon cats didn't understand.

"Well, let me think..." Gobazo calmed down. Ordinary humans don't have demonic power and can't learn the illusion of the demon raccoon clan. "Well, could it be that..."

He recalled what Ying and Paimon said.

"What? That stinky fox. If you were still alive, you should have come and said hello to us earlier." His voice was filled with joy and blame.

In order to prevent Gobazo from misunderstanding, Paimon said, "Miss Masked Priestess, from the name, you can tell that you are not a fox. You are a priestess wearing a mask, and she said you are an 'old friend'."

Gobazo's voice was doubtful, and his joy faded. "Mask? I don't know what a mask is, nor do I know a miko. But I do know a fox."

"Come to think of it..." he recalled, "That stinky fox did appear in the image of a witch. What does the witch you're talking about look like?"

"Wearing a white fox mask..." Paimon began.

"Short black hair." Ying said.

"Wearing a witch costume." Paimon said again.

Ying feels like Paimeng finally has some rapport with her, and she can probably do crosstalk with him.

Jiang Yi took out three apples and gave them to the three little cats.

Because Yandora said that the Pure Water Clan likes apples. According to legend, apples contain the purest water in the earth and provide infinite power.

So among all the fruits on Jiang Yi's body, apples are the most numerous.

Do you usually give Yandora some snacks or apple juice drinks in addition to elemental essence?

"Well... I don't know him. I've never seen such a person." Gobazo said after thinking for a while.

"I see." Paimon felt that this strange thing was not just one or two times, and the witch seemed to be even more mysterious.

The three little raccoons are communicating with Gobazo.

"...Hmm? Okay, leave it to us." Gobazo said, "The three little raccoons want to tell you: 'It was fun playing with you, thank you.' By the way, the apples are delicious!"

"Paimon is very happy too!" Although tired, it has to be said that it was still very interesting, Paimon said with his hands behind his back.

"I'll give you three more." Jiang Yi took out another apple. The apple was grown in the cave and improved through alchemy. It has a good taste and sweetness.

The atmosphere is harmonious.

Ying can finally ask about the comb weight.

"I am the world-famous demon raccoon Gobazo. Of course I will keep my promise. This comb is given to you." Gobazo activated the magic power in his body, and a comb appeared on the statue.

"But what do you want this comb for? To comb your hair? It might smell like a fox."

Ying thinks Gobazo is too talkative.

Fortunately, they are not foxes, otherwise they would definitely teach the outspoken Gohyaku a lesson.

Paimon explained to Gobazo what "The Great Purification of the Divine Sakura" meant.

Gobazo finally understood: "What is this? It turns out to be such an important thing. You should have told me earlier... I was sealed up for no apparent reason..."

"One hundred years? One thousand years? One million years?" Jiang Yi and Ying revealed Wu Bai Zang's scars in tacit understanding.

"Hey! Stop making sarcastic remarks!" Wu Bai Zang said speechlessly, "Forget it, it's all in the past. We also have some ideas about the barrier near the forest."

"When I was fighting that stinky fox before, I saw it on the eastern coast. It looks like a thunder cherry tree, with a torii gate, right?"

he recalled.

"Before, I saw that guy fighting with some monster there, and I was worried that other monsters would run out from there and harm my forest, so I used magic to seal that place off." Gobazo was very satisfied with his foresight.

"Let me think about it. It's sealed under the cliff to the east..."

"You should be able to remove the seal without the need for 'Master Ji'."

He said to the three of them.

"Are you talking about Jiang Yi?" Paimon pointed at the only guy among them who knew illusion and sealing techniques.

"Yes!" said Gobaizang.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this. Go quickly. I want to sleep." He was a little drowsy due to the alcohol.

"If you see that stinky fox, remember to give me good advice. Just say..." He thought for a moment.

"'You bastard, I'm so pissed. Come back and fight me, the winner is not decided yet! And help me to remove the seal! By the way, it's not that I can't remove the seal myself, but you stinky fox, you still owe me a few favors! The judge in the Ministry of Justice said he missed you!'" Gobazo said, "It's a short sentence."

"This is obviously very long, too long, I can't remember it at all!" Paimon felt that this was embarrassing for his little head.

"I remember it." Jiang Yi nodded.

"Good! You are worthy of being our close friend!" said Gobaizang.

"Have we been promoted to close friends so quickly?" Ying held up her chin.

"By the way, my dear friend! After the magic is successful, can you let us see the changes you imagined?" Gobazo made his last request.

"Sure!" Jiang Yi said, "It won't take too long."

……

The sky is dimly bright.

Jiang Yi, Ying and Paimeng came to the cliff where the seal was hidden.

Jiang Yi waved his hand, and the large bare rock in front of him disappeared.

"Wow——" Paimon exclaimed.

The huge tree roots and the red torii gate in the cave appeared in front of the three people.

Just like before, there was an ominous and filthy "undercurrent" feeling, as if something powerful was sealed inside.

Ying took the black comb with a white fox painted on it, put it into the lampstand filled with talismans, and completed the decryption, blessing and purification with ease.

The fallen warrior who appeared disappeared along with the ominous aura.

There was a burst of applause.

"Very beautiful, whether it's Gobazo's trick, the way this young master removed the seal, or the way you defeated the monster!"

The overly familiar voice and the sudden appearance of Hanasari made Paimon feel disgusted.

"Alas!"

"…I wanted to be surprised, but I'm actually used to it. The masked miko-san is really boring."

Hanasari nodded and said seriously, "I see. I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'll try harder next time."

Cute...

Hmm? Jiang Yi felt that his appreciation for the beauty of the girl's personality had reached a new level.

I have learned to appreciate the beauty around me.

Because I am powerful, I feel relaxed and free.

The appreciation that came from the heart, although it was too frequent, made him very happy.

"Don't encourage this kind of thing..." Ying stretched out her hand.

"That's true." Hanasari put away her inner mischief, "So, Gobazo... is he okay?"
