In the living room, Bai Mo stood by the window, patting the heads of his three apprentices.
"Have you packed your equipnt?"
But the three revealed what was under their cloaks.
"Ying ying ying!"
Quanquan Hu, after uncovering his cloak, showed the bronze shovel held in his front paws to his master, a square bronze shovel that looked sowhat silly. But this was the shovel he was most familiar with.
"Ying ying ying!"
White Ears, after uncovering the cloak, opened the small dicine box slung over his shoulder to show his master. The dicine box was filled with miscellaneous items, including a skewed Vengeance Sword, a bundled-up Resentful Ghost Robe, several large bottles of Loosening Potion, and two small shovels.
"Ying ying ying!"
Black Ears uncovered his cloak, revealing nothing but a fluffy, chubby fox. The necessary items were all brought by Quanquan Hu and White Ears. When it ca to him, there was no need to bring anything.
Bai Mo contemplated for a mont.
"This ti, after all, it’s a mission in the present world.
"Although it’s quite close to ho.
"Even though your skills are strong enough.
"But... I still feel uneasy."
Bai Mo reached into the warehouse of Fox Mountain through the boundary of the blurred dream and present world as if it were covered in white mist, fetching a bottle of potion.
He found a string, tied the potion, and hung it around Black Ears’ neck.
He patted Black Ears’ head and pinched his soft ears.
"This bottle of potion, use it as a protective talisman!
"Rember, if you encounter danger, don’t hesitate, just open the bottle cap."
Black Ears squinted his eyes, rubbing his head against his master’s hand, full of enjoynt.
White Ears and Quanquan Hu looked at the bottle of potion. It was the finest bronze dicine bottle from Fox Mountain!
Bai Mo picked up his three apprentices at once, letting them look outside the window.
"Let tell you about the mission.
"Do you see that area, where many excavators are digging the ground..."
The three fox apprentices leaned their heads back against their master’s chest, looking outside at the construction site.
"...Underneath there, it’s very likely... there’s an Alchemy Furnace.
"Go and have a look, play it by ear, if possible, bring the Alchemy Furnace back."
Alchemy Furnace?
The three fox apprentices imdiately understood, speaking in their fox tongue.
"Ying ying ying!"
"Ow ow ow!"
"Ying ying ying!"
In their understanding, anything related to elixirs belonged to Fox Mountain.
They understood this mission... to retrieve the Alchemy Furnace that belonged to Fox Mountain but was lost outside!
...
Yuann Park had been deserted for many years. Until today, it suddenly beca lively.
One excavator after another roared and operated, digging one hole after another on the ground, changing its appearance so much that even the ground slightly trembled. The once green grass and pebble paths were gone, leaving only faint black and red pits.
The roaring of the machines seed to make the sumr even more sweltering.
The three foxes, each wearing an Invisibility Cloak, squatted in a row on a large tree at the edge of the park, hiding in the cool shade of the tree canopy. They occasionally peeked their heads out to observe, watching those big machines in the distance.
So far, the pits dug were still too shallow, and no ruins could be seen. Their master had said to wait until the ruins were revealed, then take a look!
At this ti, White Ears secretly handed a bunch of grapes from under his cloak to Black Ears in his cloak. Then he sneaked a bunch of grapes to Quanquan Hu in his cloak. Then, from the small dicine box, he took out a bunch of grapes, picked one, and put it in his mouth.
Suddenly.
Swish! Swish! Swish...
A series of black bulletproof cars drove into the construction site and happened to stop under the big tree.
Once a convoy of cars stopped, they ford a formation. Eighteen cars ford a connected circle, surrounding a bulletproof van like stars surrounding the moon.
From the eighteen cars, immortal technique committee mbers in uniform rushed out, planting eighteen bronze shields around the convoy in the muddy ground, serving as a third layer of defense.
The eighteen shields faintly emitted fluctuations of Immortal Qi, clearly being eighteen Immortal Artifacts!
...
On the tree, Quanquan Hu, Black Ears, and White Ears were all stunned.
What a grand setup!
They all stared with wide eyes, trying to learn. Once they learned it, they’d get one for their master too!
What kind of person has such a grand setup?
...
In the center of the convoy, the door of the van opened, and a strong middle-aged man in a suit stepped down, standing tall and straight, looking towards the construction site with a deep breath, face full of fervor!
He had a buzz cut, and his square face was covered with bluish stubble.
"Traveling far and wide, only to find it effortlessly.
"The Artifact Refining Furnace... finally found!"
...
On the tree, the three foxes frowned, looking disdainful.
Artifact Refining Furnace?
This guy must have made a mistake, right?
It’s clearly an Alchemy Furnace!
But that being said, no matter what kind of furnace, this guy is here for the furnace. Does he want to take Fox Mountain’s furnace away?
...
In the convoy below the tree, the Little Secretary approached the middle-aged man from behind.
"Teacher, there’s a response from West State City, so citizens complained about our noise disturbance and reported our dust pollution..."
The middle-aged man waved his hand impatiently.
"Those trivial matters, let them handle it themselves.
"Digging out the Artifact Refining Furnace is the most important thing, not a mont can be delayed!"
The Little Secretary nodded and stepped back into the van.
Leaving the middle-aged man standing tall, continuing to watch the construction site.
...
Not long after, the Little Secretary again ca behind the middle-aged man, holding a phone, presenting it to the man.
"Teacher, a call from Chairman Chen Shu of West State City."
The middle-aged man considered for a mont, then took the call.
Imdiately, Chairman Chen Shu’s low voice ca from the other end.
"Tie Shiba, you’ve gone too far!
"The ruins are in our West State City. If there is to be any excavation, it should be us doing it!"
