Although the name of Shanks Street sounds very foreign, it is actually an old street with a history of more than 100 years.

In the past, Shanks Street was one of the central streets of Fengling City, so it has always been very popular. But as the center of the city shifts to the south, the once bustling Shanks Street is now just a little bit of a historic street.

"I'm still going to say why I'm here?"

Early in the morning of Saturday, Yun Zhifan woke up Chu Li, who rarely wanted to sleep lazily, from the hotel, and said that he would go together to see the strange talk that could fulfill his wish.

Under Yun Zhifan's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Yun Zhifan invited Chu Li out at the cost of cooking for Chu Li for a month.

"Oops, it's all out, so don't complain. ”

"You can just go yourself. ”

"I've actually been there, but I haven't found it. Yun Zhifan handed the phone to Chu Li, "Because there is no No. 44 on Shanks Street at all, don't you think it's strange?

Because when Shanks Street was designed, for the sake of auspiciousness, all the house numbers related to 4 were specially omitted.

"I don't think so. Chu Li yawned, "Maybe the so-called strange talk was a prank from the beginning." ”

"Don't go, we're here. ”。

As Yun Zhifan described, there is no 44 Shanks Street. Now on the left side of Chu Li is No. 43, and on the right hand side is No. 45, both of which are abandoned shops, with only a small alley in between.

"Chu... Chu Li, why are you here?"

Just when Chu Li was about to persuade Yun Zhifan to go back, Mu Xi walked over from the opposite street, followed by the prosecutor Zou Shen.

"I came with Yun Zhifan to find a strange conversation. ”

Mu Xi glanced at Yun Zhifan, who was waving his hand to greet him, and said to Chu Li: "Sister Zou and I followed the clues and found No. 44 Shanks Street, and you also went to investigate the incident of 'people turning into dogs'?"

Before Chu Li could speak, Yun Zhifan's eyes flashed brightly: "Incident, what incident? Is it related to strange talks?" ”

Zou Cheng looked at Yun Zhifan and felt that there was a big light bulb above his head. At this time, her cell phone rang.

"Hey, what, do you want an ordinary person to help?" Zou Cheng grabbed Yun Zhifan's collar and pulled him away without saying a word, "I'll bring someone over immediately, you wait first." ”

"Hey, Sister Zou Heng. Mu Xi wanted to stop him, but he had already gone away.

Looking at the back of Zou Xi leaving, Chu Li shook his head helplessly, and said to Mu Xi, "Gone, what are you doing there." ”

Mu Xi followed Chu Li into the alley between the two door numbers: "We... Where to go. ”

"Aren't you looking for the truth about the 'man turned into a dog' incident? I'm not very interested in weird talks, but this incident still makes me curious, so I can go and see it. ”

At the end of the alley was a wall, and there was no other way to go, but the two monks, knew that what they saw before them was nothing more than a clever trick.

Chu Li raised his right hand and pressed it against the wall in front of him, and then he heard the sound of glass breaking in the air.

The surrounding scenery faded into a blur, and the wall in front of it became a door that looked like it was some years old.

The house number was written "44 Shanks Street".

I don't know when it began, but the area between shops at No. 43 and No. 45 on Shanks Street has been transformed into a building in the style of the ancient imperial period, with wooden doors and stone walls, red bricks and green tiles.

It's just that this ancient mansion is covered by a phantom array, and when people can pass by, they think that it is two ordinary, abandoned shops.

If it weren't for the monks who were relatively strong and could break the illusion, they could only pass the three formations of "Strange Talk" first, and then they could be accepted by the illusion array and see the ancient mansion in the illusion array.

There is a plaque above the wooden door that reads "Sanfu", but in Mu Xi's memory, there should be no surname "San" in Qianguo.

The wooden door doesn't matter, it's easy to push open. When you open the door, the first thing that catches your eye is a variety of animals.

Flowers, birds, fish, insects, pigs, dogs, cows and sheep, flying in the sky, running on the ground, everything, and even lions have a few.

As soon as he walked into the vestibule of the ancient mansion, Mu Xi felt like he was in a zoo where all the animals were concentrated in one viewing area. There are almost thousands of animals of all kinds, up and down, left and right.

It's just that these animals are all locked in iron cages of all sizes without exception, and from a distance, they look like poachers hiding their precious animals.

"These animals ......" Chu Li looked at the thousands of animals, his brows furrowed, "It seems that they are all changed by people." ”

"What!" Mu Xi was taken aback, "You mean the souls of all the animals here." ”

Chu Li nodded: "Well, it should be right." ”

The front yard of the ancient house is not very large, but I walked about 20 steps to the door of the hall of the ancient house. Mu Xi and Chu Li gently pushed the door open, and they also saw that the hall was also full of all kinds of cages, and the animals that humans had turned into were imprisoned inside.

In addition to the cages, there are also quite a few tanks, some filled with goldfish, others with freshwater fish.

If I didn't know that these animals were all changed by people, I would have thought that the owner of this ancient house was a pet collector who liked animals very much.

In the middle of the hall is a table of eight immortals made of expensive sandalwood. There was a young man sitting at the table who was drinking tea, and the young man looked very small, only twelve or thirteen years old, and he was very delicate.

"Two. The young man's voice was very immature, as if he hadn't changed his voice, "Please be seated." ”

Mu Xi looked at the young man in front of him curiously, but he couldn't see the essence of the other party for a while, he could only confirm that the other party was a big demon who had transformed into a shape, and the specific level of cultivation needed to be further determined.

So Mu Xi, who didn't want to startle the snake, followed Chu Li to sit opposite the young man and take a look at the situation first.

"Two. The young man's smile was still there, "Do you have any wishes that you want me to help you fulfill?"

"Who is making a ghost between the underworld and the human world!" Chu Li said, pressing his arm on the table.

Mu Xi also followed up and asked: "How can I win against Chu Li!"

"What... What!"

The startled teenager had a bunch of question marks on his face, but what he didn't know was that his head had turned into a toad head because he was nervous because of being frightened.

Mu Xi finally saw it at this time, the demon beast in front of him was just a toad, not a shape-shifting demon, Mu Xi was deceived by the illusion of the demon beast.

Mu Xi, who learned this, immediately took the case, and the powerful weapon "Jingyan" had already appeared in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at the center of the opponent's eyebrows.

"Hurry up and turn all the animals back here, or I'll cut off your frog's head!"

"Ahh Ahh

"Don't worry. Chu Li shook his head and pressed Mu Xi's hand, "You can't kill the three-legged golden toad, listen to what it has to say first." ”

"Three-legged...... Golden Toad?"
