He was afraid and ran away. Wanfu ran to Jinan and rented a room in a hotel.At night, a woman eloped, very beautiful.Wanfu liked her very much, so he kept her.Asked her name, the woman said: I am a fox girl, but I will not harm you!Wanfu has no doubts because he likes her.The woman asked him not to live with other guests, so she came to sleep with Wan every day.All the daily necessities are supplied by the fox girl.It didn't take long, and several friends of Wanfu often came to meet him, often sitting all night long.Wanfu was annoyed, but he was too embarrassed to refuse, so he had to tell the truth to the guest.When the guests heard about it, they wanted to meet the fox girl.Wanfu told the fox girl.The orphan said to the guest: What are you doing seeing me?I'm just a human being!Hearing the voice of the fox girl, it seemed to be in front of my eyes, but I couldn't see anyone when I looked around.

Among the guests was a man named Sun Deyan who liked to joke and insisted on meeting the fox girl. He also said: Hearing this delicate voice makes me fascinated!Why do you want to begrudge your beautiful face and make people miss you just by listening to your voice?The fox girl smiled and scolded: What a great grandson!Want to paint a Carpe Die picture for your old grandma?The guests all laughed.The fox girl said again: I am a fox, so I will tell a story about a fox for the guests.Would you like to hear it?Everyone hurriedly expressed their willingness to listen.The fox girl said: Once upon a time, there was an inn in a certain village, and there were many foxes who often came out to confuse tourists.After the guests knew about it, they warned each other not to stay in this hotel.In the past six months, the front of the hotel has been neglected, and the owner of the hotel is very worried, and he is very taboo about talking about foxes.One day, suddenly a visitor from afar, claiming to be a foreigner, saw the hotel and went in to ask for a stay.The owner of the store was very happy.As soon as the visitor came in, a passer-by told him secretly: There are foxes in this house!The visitor was frightened and hurriedly told the host to move away.The owner tried his best to argue that there were no foxes in the store, so the visitors stayed.When I entered the room and just lay down, I saw a group of mice coming out from under the bed. The visitor was startled, and ran out of the room in a hurry, shouting loudly: "There are foxes!"The owner of the store asked in surprise, and the visitor said: "The fox's den is here, how can you lie to me and say no?"The master asked again: "What does the fox you saw just now look like?"The visitor said: "The one I saw just now is thin and small. It is either the son of a fox or the grandson of a fox!"After the speech, the whole audience burst out laughing.Sun Deyan said: Since you don't want us to see Xianrong, we will stay here tonight, and if we don't leave, you two don't want to sleep either!The fox girl smiled and said: It's okay to stay here, if I offend you a little, please don't take it to heart!Everyone was afraid that she was playing a prank, so they had to leave together.But after that, they came once a few days, and when they came, they laughed and scolded each other with the fox girl.The fox girl is very witty, and every word she says makes the guests laugh, no matter how funny people are, she can't beat her.Everyone jokingly called her Fox Lady.

Seeing that Sun Deyan was very embarrassed at this time, he said, "Where did the male fox go?"Ren Vixen speaks poisonous words here!The fox girl went on to say: Before the story was finished, it was interrupted by the barking of the dogs.Please let me finish it.The king was very surprised to see the minister riding a mule.The minister told him: This is Ma Sheng.The king was even more surprised.The minister said: In China, a horse breeds a mule, and a mule breeds a foal.The king asked again in detail.The minister said: "The horse gave birth to a mule, which is what I saw; the mule gave birth to a foal, which is what I heard."The whole audience laughed again.Everyone knew that joking was no match for her, so they agreed: whoever swears in jokes will be punished as the host and everyone will be invited to drink.After a while, everyone became more excited.Sun Deyan teased Wanfu again and said: I have a couplet, please read the second one.Wanfu asked: What couplet?Sun Deyan said: This couplet is: when a prostitute goes out to visit her lover, good luck when she comes, and good luck when she goes.All the people in one group were thinking hard about it, but they couldn't make it.The fox girl suddenly smiled and said: I'm right!Everyone is busy listening.The fox girl said: "The Dragon King issued an edict to ask for direct remonstrance, so the turtle can speak, and the tortoise can also speak."Everyone applauded.Sun Deyan was very annoyed, and said: I made an appointment with you just now, why did you break the precept again?The fox girl smiled and said: I was really wrong!But apart from this sentence, it doesn't match your Shanglian.Tomorrow I will host a banquet for everyone to atone for my sins!Everyone laughed.The humor of the fox girl, so and so, can't be finished for a while.
