The little episode of the fox ended there. Zhao Meng's life returned to its previous days.
Although he was sent here to guard the mountain, in essence, he was imprisoned here.
He could not leave the confines of theTwo-World Mountain and could not enter the human world.
However, compared to the criminals in prison, living alone in seclusion in the mountains and having food delivered from time to time was not bad.
If this was not the Two-World Mountain, it would be a good life to go from the hustle and bustle of the city and live in seclusion in this beautiful mountain forest.
"Speaking of which, that Taoist priest Qing Xuan looks like a prison guard!"
Zhao Meng muttered to himself. He picked up the hoe and started to work in front of the tiled house.
It had been three months since he came to this world. The only human he had interacted with was Taoist Qing Xuan.
Moreover, after his observation, he realized that the Taoist Qing Xuan was not very nice to him.
This unfriendliness, he also found the reason from the memories of his predecessor. Because of his predecessor's involvement with demons, Qing Xuan hated him.
This Two-World Mountain was the frontline area against the demons. Being involved with demons would naturally attract the disgust of the people stationed here.
"However, what exactly was the situation of this predecessor being involved with a demon?"
Zhao Meng searched the memories of his predecessor for a long time but could not find any clues in this aspect. This made him very puzzled.
"Could he have been framed?"
Zhao Meng thought of many possibilities.
His predecessor was the 17th son of Emperor Zhao. In this world where human beings had a long lifespan, his direct line of descent could be considered to be at the front.
Furthermore, for some reason, he had once been doted on by Emperor Zhao.
Thinking of this, Zhao Meng could not help but have a strange thought.
"Could it be that he was involved in the struggle for the throne? However, from his predecessor's memories, I can't remember him ever being involved in such matters!"
"Forget it! There's no point in thinking so much!"
Zhao Meng shook his head and continued to open up farmland in front of his tiled house.
As a prisoner who had been exiled to Two-World Mountain, he had nothing to do. He could only plant some fields on the mountain to pass the time.
Although it was not an easy task to open fields on the mountain, he had time to do so.
As for seeds, he had asked Taoist Qing Xuan for them.
"The terrain here is flat. I can still reclaim some land!"
As Zhao Meng busied himself, he was still thinking about the strange simulation system in his mind.
"I wonder how long it will take for this strange simulation system to cool down!"
As the simulation ended and after he had drawn the Gold message, Zhao Meng realized that the strange animal simulation system in his body seemed to have entered a cooldown state.
As for how long it would take for the cooldown to end, Zhao Meng could not be sure. He could only wait patiently.
"I wonder what the next simulation would be?
"Would it be a creature from Earth, or could other creatures in this world be simulated?
"If I could simulate the demons in this world and obtain some abilities from them, I could obtain enough abilities to protect myself!"
Zhao Meng was looking forward to this. It had been three months since he came to this world.
However, there were demons and cultivators here. He, who did not have the strength to even truss a chicken, still felt uneasy.
"I can't just think about the simulation system. I should think of another way!"
Zhao Meng threw the stone he had dug out aside as he pondered over something.
Zhao Meng, who was farming, did not know that in another valley, a group of Taoist priests was observing him.
"Since three months ago, his personality has changed drastically. Is there anything wrong with his soul, Qing Xuan?"
"Master, during these three months, I've checked the soul every day and found no abnormalities!"
"In that case, this kid does have the potential to comprehend the Dao in the Dragon Field!"
"Comprehend the Dao in the Dragon Field!" This sentence drew a sneer.
"He has the talent!"
"Junior Brother Qing Xun, you can't underestimate the people of the world!
"You should know that people in the world often obtain great opportunities when they encounter great terror. I think this is one of the reasons why Emperor Zhao sent him here!"
"Senior Brother Qing Xuan, don't you know that Emperor Zhao is using him as bait and cannon fodder, and have sent him here to die?"
"Qing Xun!"
A stern and old voice interrupted Qing Xun's voice. Upon hearing this voice, the slightly lazy voice also disappeared.
Qing Xuan saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward. He gently flicked his sleeves and a mixed-fur fox appeared in the hall.
"Master, how should we deal with this demon?"
"We can just kill it on the spot. Why are you asking Master such a question?" The Taoist named Qing Xun gave his opinion again.
At this moment, a young Taoist priest suddenly discovered something.
"Senior Brothers, look, it's a female fox!"
Qing Xun, who originally wanted to kill this fox, sensed it slightly when he heard this and said in surprise, "It's actually a female fox. Those female foxes on Fox Hill Mountain have always been cunning. Under normal circumstances, it's not easy to encounter them!"
"Master, it's rare for us to capture the female fox of Fox Hill Mountain alive. Perhaps we can use this fox to investigate the situation on Fox Hill Mountain!" A young voice expressed his opinion.
Everyone in the Taoist temple looked at this mixed-fur fox and surprisingly agreed with this view.
Only Qing Xuan frowned as he looked at the mixed-fur fox.
"Senior Brother Qing Xuan, is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing, maybe I remembered wrongly"
…
In the blink of an eye, the sun in the sky slowly turned from the east to the west.
Clouds gradually appeared in the mountains. After a day of hard work, Zhao Meng was a little tired.
He returned to the tiled room and cooked some porridge. Then, he sat cross-legged on the stone platform on the mountainside again and looked at the forest that was gradually falling into darkness.
He thought of the male fox that he had defeated in A Showdown.
"I wonder how that fox is doing?
"With Qing Xuan's hatred for fox demons, it should have been executed!
"Speaking of which, that fox demon should be from Fox Hill Mountain!"
At the thought of Fox Hill Mountain, some memories could not help but appear in Zhao Meng's mind.
From the memories of his predecessor, Two-World Mountain was a huge mountain range that spanned 80,000 miles.
The State of Zhao of the human race was responsible for guarding a stretch of the Two-World Mountain that was not considered very long.
The demons that the State of Zhao was guarding against were the foxes on that end of the Two-World Mountain.
The fox tribe was extremely difficult to deal with. On the land where the State of Zhao was located, many countries had been wiped out by the fox tribe.
Even the State of Zhao needed the support of its country to resist the fox tribe. The fox tribe's greatest ability was in charming humans.
Because of this, if anyone in Zhao was branded as being involved with a demon, it was basically equivalent to social death.
If it was a prince, he would be cut off from the throne.
At the thought of this, Zhao Meng shook his head gently. Even if he was invited back to be Emperor Zhao, he would not go back.
Although he had inherited the memories of his predecessor, his actions were still different from his predecessor's. If he returned to the vortex, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
"Two-World Mountain is heavily guarded. Although it's the front line, the fox tribe doesn't like to start a war. Instead, they like to use the art of seduction to sow discord between the countries of the humans.
"This place is safe for the time being!"
