Jia Zhengjin built a wooden house in a quiet valley outside Kangjun City and lived in it temporarily.
To kill time, make a fishing rod and fish every day.
On the afternoon of the third day, Yue Lang finally appeared.
"Would you like to bet?" he asked directly.
Jia Zhengjin put away his fishing rod: "I've been waiting for you. Have you chosen the target?"
"Of course!" Yue Lang smiled, "Choose carefully and set off now?"
"good!"
The two agreed, and Yue Lang cast a spell to turn Jia Zhengjin into golden light. In an instant, the sky and the earth spun around, and the scenery changed.
After landing, I found myself in a large mountain with a small village at the foot of the mountain.
"Where is this place?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown as he glanced at the dense forest around him.
"This is Niulan Village, Bashui County, Yunzhou, Tang Dynasty." Yue Lang pointed to the sparse village buildings at the foot of the mountain, "The village is about twenty miles away from the county town. The place we are at is Niujiao Mountain, which is Niulan Village.
A place where hunters often come to hunt. The first thing I want to bet on is the heart of a young man named Niu Xi in Niulan Village."
"How to bet?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
Yue Lang smiled and said: "The young man I selected, Niu Xi, is thirty-three this year. His family is poor and he has an old father who is sick. His father, Niu Bao, only has one son. His wife died early. In order to raise his son, he
When I was older, I ate everything I cried. As a result, I am now sick from overwork and have a whole body of diseases. It’s just that Niu Xi has been ignorant since he was a child, and he always hangs out with Xiaoxiao. Everyone is known to be unfilial. I will bet with you that this Niu Xi will
It depends on whether he will change his ways and turn around as a prodigal son within this month, or he will not change his ways and will make his father angry. Because he was the person I chose and the bet I set up, I bet that he has no filial piety at all.
Will repent."
"Then I can only bet that he will turn around?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"That's right!" Yue Lang nodded, "From now on, you and I will use our own methods. Under the three-point agreement, we can use any method to try to change or maintain Niu Xi's mind. As the saying goes, filial piety comes first, one month
It’s not impossible for Niu Xi’s prodigal son to turn around as time goes by. If you’re ready, we’ll go our separate ways and complete the bet within one month. Of course, you can also admit defeat directly.”
"It's not my style to admit defeat before it starts." Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "You are not allowed to use spells that confuse the mind, you are not allowed to let the target know about the gambling, and you are not allowed to be seen by the target as not a mortal, right?"
"Exactly!"
"Okay, what does Niu Xi look like? Which direction does he live in?"
"In such a small village, of course I asked about it myself!" Yue Lang said with a smile.
"You know everything and I have to find out for myself?"
"It's just a trivial matter. Isn't this difficult to deal with?"
"Okay! Then who are you going to become?"
"Did you accept the bet?"
"certainly!"
"Since we accepted the bet, we are now opponents." Yue Lang laughed, "As an opponent, how could I tell you? Don't ask me who I am, I don't care what identity you use, everyone uses their own methods.
We’ll find out in a month! I’ll take the first step.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned into golden light and flew directly towards Niulan Village.
The three-point agreement is actually meaningless to Jia Zhengjin, because he himself does not know the confusing spells, and he cannot take the initiative to tell the other party about the gambling. As long as he is not killed and resurrected, people probably won't be able to tell that he has anything to do with mortals.
What's the difference.
Now that the gambling game has begun, Yue Lang takes action in advance, and Jia Zhengjin also wants to go to Niulan Mountain.
He could ask Nuwa to teleport down directly, but the mountain is actually not too high, and he also needs a new face and identity.
After thinking for a moment, I directly used soul projection to transform into the appearance of Lady Fox, and walked slowly down the mountain road.
This mountain is just behind the village. In addition to hunters, there are also woodcutters.
As soon as we arrived near the mountainside, we heard the sound of trees being cut down nearby.
Jia Zhengjin slowly approached and soon spotted a young man holding a hatchet.
The man was about twenty years old, his hair was tied into a whip and tied around his head, he was wearing a patched cloth, and his pair of straw sandals were even torn.
When the young man saw Jia Zhengjin who had transformed into Lady Fox, he immediately stopped his movements and showed a surprised expression.
Firstly, this was the first time he saw this lady fox, so she was very unfamiliar. Secondly, lady fox was very beautiful. All vixens can charm people to death.
The appearance of such a charming young girl on this mountain, whom he had never seen before, would certainly make him puzzled.
In addition to doubts, he was more attracted by Aunt Fox's beauty. There is no woman with such appearance in the small mountain village.
"Brother, may I ask if there is a Niulan Village near here?" Jia Zhengjin pretended to be cautious and came to the other party and asked softly.
"Go down the mountain road and you'll be there soon." The young man stared straight at the beauty in front of him, unable to recover. "Where does the lady come from? There are wild beasts on this mountain, but it is quite dangerous."
In this situation, the other party was basically charmed by Lady Fox's passive ability. Jia Zhengjin took this opportunity to inquire about information and quickly got the information he wanted.
This young man is a woodcutter from Niulan Village, and he knows Niu Xi, but not too well.
His name is Niu Shun. His father also collects firewood for a living. A few years ago, he went up the mountain and was eaten by a pack of wolves. His mother went up the mountain to search and accidentally fell off the cliff. There was no one else at home. He cut firewood every day and sold it to make a living.
Hearing that he was just a few steps away from Niu Xi's house, Jia Zhengjin rolled his eyes and directly used soul projection on him to copy Niu Xi's appearance.
Before Niu Xi could recover, Nuwa accepted Jia Zhengjin's order and sent him directly to Nuwa, where he was temporarily placed under house arrest in a room.
And Jia Zhengjin changed from the look of Mrs. Fox to Niu Shun in an instant. He picked up the hatchet, carried the firewood on his back, and walked slowly down the mountain road.
It only lasted a month, and Niu Shun was temporarily kept at Nuwa's house until the bet was over and he was released.
With Nuwa here, Niu Shun's food and drink problems can be solved, and being imprisoned in a small room will not expose him to too much future technology. Borrowing his identity and giving him some gold as compensation after the end can be regarded as helping the other party.
.
It’s just that I don’t know who Yue Lang will become and how he will approach Niu Xi.
He bet that Niu Xi would never repent. If he were to think about it in another person's shoes, Jia Zhengjin would have chosen those friends around Niu Xi. In other words, Yue Lang could change into any of Niu Xi's friends, and then use this identity to contact him, or even
Encourage Niu Xi to move in the direction he wants.
What Jia Zhengjin has to do is to prevent Yue Lang from succeeding, try to get close to Niu Xi as Niu Shun, and then find a way to make his prodigal son turn around and be filial to his father. (To be continued)
