"What are you worried about, young master?"

I don't know when the white fox came back. Seeing the sad look on Xu Ze's face, he asked.

Xu Ze did not hide anything and said directly: "The ancestral spirits in the village suddenly stopped showing up for the village's sacrifices some time ago."

"After that, several people disappeared in the village. There must be demons causing trouble. My parents, brothers and sisters may be in danger at any time, but there is nothing I can do."

In fact, Xu Ze wanted to ask Bai Hu to take action, but he was afraid of being rejected. After all, they could only meet by chance.

But there was nothing he could do on his own.

Although he inherited the old witch's memory fragments and knew some spells, they were all heretical and he could not practice them himself.

As for the enlightenment just now, he still hasn't fully understood it yet.

I just roughly know that by transcending the dead, I can get rewards from the other party, and my soul will get bonuses and enter the state of enlightenment.

When this reward is exhausted, he returns to his original appearance.

And now that he has Tao but no skills, even if he can feel a stream of true energy swimming in his Dantian, he doesn't know how to drive it, so it won't be of use for the time being.

"Ancestral spirit? Village spirit?"

Suddenly the white fox's heart moved.

Go to the other party's village to be a village spirit for a period of time? Protect the other party secretly, and then leave on your own until the relationship is over?

"By the way, I still don't know what your name is? My name is Xu Ze."

"Our fox tribe usually takes Hu as our surname. You can call me Hu Jiaojiao."

Hu Jiaojiao said again: "Mr. Xu, what do you think about me becoming your village spirit?"

"You want to be our village spirit? Are you sure?" Xu Ze asked in surprise.

Generally, those who become village spirits are basically demon spirits who have just opened their spiritual wisdom, or monks who are old and have stagnated in their cultivation and want to practice with the help of incense.

A fairy like Hu Jiaojiao, who can transform into a human form, has an unlimited future. Being a village spirit is definitely a derogation of talent.

Hu Jiaojiao nodded and said, "Thanks to Mr. Xu's help, I turned into a human today. Now that Mr. Xu is in trouble, I should naturally help him."

"When the young master's village finds a suitable village spirit in the future, Jiaojiao will naturally leave."

Xu Ze looked happy after hearing this. As long as Hu Jiaojiao was willing to take action, things would be much simpler.

Then he added: "It's not too late, let's go down the mountain now."

If he waits for a second longer, he feels that his family will be in more danger.

"Now?" Hu Jiaojiao raised the hare in her hand and said, "Master, why don't you eat something first?"

"No, I'm not hungry now. Let's take it down the mountain together. It's just in time for my family to eat some meat."

"Oh well."

After the two of them discussed it, Xu Ze went into the house and rummaged around to see if there was anything he could use, and brought them down the mountain together.

Based on the memory fragments, Xu Ze searched everything he could find, and finally found seven large coins in a corner.

The currencies circulating in this world are divided into big money, medium money, and small money.

The coins are made of copper mixed with gold, and they look similar to the copper coins of previous generations.

Ten small coins are exchanged for one medium dollar, and ten medium coins are exchanged for one large dollar.

A small amount of money can buy two steamed buns or a meat bun.

A pound of rice costs about four to five cents.

A pound of pork costs about one cent, or more.

An ordinary set of linen clothes costs about twenty cents, and a better one only costs thirty or forty cents.

Like Xu Ze, he worked with his parents and brother every day, and the calculated value was only about one or two small coins.

Therefore, seven big coins can be considered a huge sum of money to Xu Ze now.

Of course, gold and silver are also used in transactions in this world, but every gold and silver transaction has to be weighed, which is very inconvenient, so the mainstream currency is still coins.

And just like the previous life, the value sum of gold and silver is not fixed and will fluctuate up and down, so most people will not trade gold or silver unless there is really no other way.

After hiding the large amount of money close to his body, Xu Ze walked down the mountain along the same route, while Hu Jiaojiao followed behind invisibly.

Perhaps it was due to the vitality entering his body in the morning, Xu Ze found that his physical condition was much better than before, and he only panted slightly after walking halfway up the mountain.

After about half an hour, Xu Ze finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Xiao Yunyi ran all the way into Xujiazhuang.

"Hey, Aze, are you okay?"

Just when Xu Zegang ran into the village, a man who was carrying natural fertilizer said unexpectedly.

Xu Ze recognized the other party. He was also from Xujiazhuang. He nodded: "Good luck, I met a noble person."

"Then you go home quickly. Your parents found out that you were missing in the morning and they were almost dying of panic."

"I see."

After answering, Xu Ze quickened his pace and ran towards home, and he arrived at the door of his house after a while.

Standing outside the fence, Xu Ze could hear a burst of crying coming from the house.

"My son, my miserable child, where have you been~"

"You are only fourteen years old, why are you leaving like this~"

"How will I live if you leave~"

"Mom, don't worry. Maybe the third brother ran out for fun, and the eldest and second brothers went to look for him. Maybe he can bring that little brat back soon."

"No, your third brother is usually well-behaved. If he went out to play by himself, he would definitely tell me."

"My son, where are you? If I can get you back, even if it costs my mother's life, I will be willing to do so."

Seeing the words of the old woman in the room, Xu Ze felt panicked.

As an orphan in his previous life, he had never experienced any maternal love, and he was a little at a loss now.

Bracing himself and walking to the door, Xu Ze whispered: "Mother, eldest sister, I'm back."

Just as Xu Ze finished speaking, the old woman and the woman next to him immediately looked towards him.

"My son, is it really you? Is it really you?"

When the old woman saw Xu Ze, she stood up excitedly and ran over in three steps.

Seeing this, Xu Ze hurriedly rushed forward and supported his mother.

The old woman reached out and touched Xu Ze's face, and then said happily: "It's really my son, it's really my son."

"Mom, it's me."

"Where did you go? Let's find it easy for us."

Then he turned around and said to the woman beside him: "Yuncai, go and call your father and brother back."

"Hey, I'll go right away." Xu Yuncai said and went out.

The old woman pulled Xu Ze and sat down: "Son, where did you go this morning? Why are you back now?"

"Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry."

"You don't have to say sorry to your mother, it's just fine."

"Are you hungry? Mom is going to cook you something to eat."

"No, mother, I'm not hungry. Let's wait until father, brother and others come back."

"Okay, you can wait until they come back. After searching for so long, they must be hungry too. Then we can cook together."

After that, Xu Ze comforted his mother in the house. It wasn't until the whole family came back that the old woman went to cook happily while the eldest sister helped her.

"Aze, what's going on?"

Seeing the old woman enter the kitchen, as the head of the family, Xu Changsheng asked his son.

Before Xu Ze could answer, suddenly three people walked in from outside the door.

Xu Ze knew two of them, one was the man who talked to him at the entrance of the village just now, and the other was the patriarch of Xujiazhuang.

Of course, what caught his attention even more was the old Taoist priest walking among them, dressed in a fairy-like manner.

When Xu Ze saw the old Taoist priest for the first time, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
