Chapter 5 Where the Demon Fox Escaped Chapter 6 Tail Hunting Journey 3
The little fox came to the fox statue with four people, and pressed it with its paws on the stone pier of the base, and a drawer-like stone box popped out, and a tail was neatly rolled up inside the stone box.
Huai Xun carefully took out the tail and docked it with the key, and the tail was instantly absorbed by the key.
"Do I have to go inside the key?" asked the little fox timidly.
"Unless you follow us and don't recognize you as a fox. "Huai Xun made a seemingly unreasonable request to the little fox.
"I can keep the barrier open so that no one can see me!" the little fox blinked.
"By the way, little fox, why weren't you taken away for research?" Yi Xixing was a little puzzled.
"Although I am a trinity with those two, only I can open the enchantment. One of the two is to stabilize the barrier, and the other is to destroy the barrier, so the three of us can't be together at the same time, otherwise neither of us can protect the other.
When the Onmyoji came to arrest us that day, I happened to go to the back mountain to steal the tribute, but when I came back, I found that the two had been captured......" The little fox said dejectedly, "and then they became like this." I don't know what research the Onmyoji did when they captured them. I've been hiding and hiding all this time until now, and you've finally appeared!"
"You don't have to hide in Tibet now, come with us!"
"There are only three of you in this shrine, right?" Kong Li squatted down and asked seriously.
"That's right, we were also sent here by Onmyoji at that time...... I don't know where the other tails were sent......" the little fox said listlessly.
"It's okay, we came to Yiguo this time just to get you all together and return them to the nine-tailed demon fox!" Huai Xun cheered up the little fox.
"Little fox, do you know the location of the Killing Stone?" asked Su Xuan as he suddenly thought of something.
"I don't know. What kind of stone is that?" replied the little fox in confusion.
"I read in the myths and legends of Yiguo, saying that Tamamo was full of resentment after being killed, and then she turned into a killing stone. But we were obviously at the foot of Mt. Fuji and saw a nine-tailed demon fox with only one tail left. So the myths and legends they wrote must be wrong!
But the nine-tailed demon fox told us that she had a tail that was designed to emit poisonous gases. I wondered, could it be that tail that turned into a killing stone?"
"Xiao Xuan is okay! Maybe it's really like you said, in fact, the killing stone is the poisonous tail of the nine-tailed demon fox?" Kong Li agreed.
"Then let's go to the killing stone first and have a look! What if it is? Why don't you get four of them together at once?" said Huai Xun excitedly.
"Let's go, let's take a look!" Yi Xixing nodded in agreement.
So the four of them took the little fox and found a place with water, and they opened the teleportation, and they instantly arrived at the active volcano park where the killing stones were exhibited.
Upon arriving here, the air was filled with the strong smell of sulfur, and several people pinched their noses.
A large black stone is surrounded by a wooden fence, and there is a sign erected next to it, which reads Killing Stone and a few big characters, as if others do not know. But the key in Huai Xun's arms didn't ring, could it be that this stone was fake?
"Wouldn't it?, we came all the way over, but this stone is not the tail of the demon fox...... "Huai Kaoru was a little deflated.
"No, the tail is around here, and it's alive too! I can feel it!" the little fox sniffed, and there seemed to be a hint of familiarity in the strong smell of sulfur, "Come with me!"
The little fox ran into the park without looking back, and the four of them followed closely and ran to the foot of the hill in the center of the park.
"Didi...... Didi ......" the key in Huai Xun's arms sounded.
"Tail! Tail is around here!" said Kaoru excitedly.
"Shhhh
"Oh......" Kaoru quickly covered her mouth.
"I'd better spread the barrier so I don't get discovered. Yi Xixing cast the enchantment technique again.
This time, Huai Xun took the initiative to take Kong Li's hand: "You can't let someone else replace you this time!"
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Although Huai Xun didn't mean that, after Kong Li heard it, the name in his heart instantly fell like Huai Xun's side.
The group followed the little fox and headed up the mountain.
Huai Xun held the key in one hand and pulled Kong Li with the other. Yi Xixing walked behind the two of them, he quietly glanced at Su Xuan, and found that she was looking at him with expectant eyes, so he also quietly took Su Xuan's hand.
Two couples, in the woods where the moonlight looms, are like two eloped couples......
"Sniff ......" The little fox sniffed again and stopped, "Stop...... It's nearby!"
"Yo, long time no see, brother......" An animal figure covered in purple smoke walked out of the darkness slowly.
"I knew you were still alive!" the little fox excitedly threw himself at the purple smoke.
However, Ziyan did not welcome it, but stepped it to the ground: "Yes! I am still alive, I am not dead! I am still alive in this world by my strong will!"
"Little fox!" Huai Xun wanted to go over to save the little fox, but she couldn't figure out what the purple smoke was trying to do, and she didn't dare to act rashly.
"Yo, and brought helpers, are they coming to catch me too?" Ziyan stomped on the little fox's neck.
"No, they're here for us! let me go!" the little fox struggled desperately.
"Save?haha......" Ziyan sneered, "The only one who can save me is myself!"
"Hey, I said, can you listen to what others have to say? The little fox talks to you with good words, look at you, with a lofty posture, who can you show it?"
She didn't care so much, stepped forward and rescued the little fox from under the feet of Ziyan. Then he took a deep breath: "Ha ......"
After that, I blew all this breath out vigorously: "Whew........................"
Purple Smoke revealed his true face, a fox that looked exactly like the little fox.
"When brothers meet, why do you make it look like an enemy!" Huai Xun boldly stretched out his hand and touched the purple smoke fox.
"It's been a long time...... It's been a long time since I've been touched...... It's so comfortable......" The purple smoke fox was touched by Huai Xun like this, and he was obedient like a kitten, rubbing his head against Huai Xun's hand.
"That's right, do you think we seem to be here to catch your onmyoji?" It's okay not to mention this word, but when you mention it, the purple smoke fox instantly exploded.
"Don't say those three words! If you can, I'm going to poison them all!"
"Okay, okay, don't say it, I don't say it, good. Come with us. We promise we won't let you be bullied!" Kaoru continued to soothe the Purple Smoke Fox until it calmed down.
After the purple smoke fox regained his calmness, the coat color on his body also returned to its previous white.
Seeing it like this, Huai Xun's curiosity began to stir again, and she tugged the hand that was holding Kong Li. I asked him with my eyes, "Can I ask?" I want to ask what happened to him. May I ask?
Kong Li, on the other hand, was puzzled: What are you going to do? Why are you dragging me? What are you going to say?
"Hey, old poison, how did you escape those onmyoji?" the little fox asked this question for Huai Xun, "You are not like me, you can open an enchantment to protect yourself." ”
"Good job!" Kaoru gave the little fox a thumbs up.
"Hey, don't mention it...... You also saw the black stone at the foot of the mountain, right?" the poisonous fox was not so bad, and began to tell everyone what had happened to him.
"The onmyoji who brought me here back then put me on that stone because of his internal urgency. Coincidentally, the mouth of the enchantment bag was loose, so I took the opportunity to drill out and attach to the stone. Later, the onmyoji came back and found that I was no longer in the bag, so he ran back to the headquarters.
Later, a farmer slept against the stone and was gassed to death. Not only that, but there is no grass around this stone, birds and beasts dare not approach, and ordinary people are far away from me, which has become an enchantment to protect me.
Later, another wave of Taoist priests came and said that they wanted to purify this stone. After tossing for three days and three nights, I couldn't get a good rest, so I sneaked out of the stone and ran into the mountains. The poisonous fox pretended to be relaxed.
"Then the poisonous ...... on your body" Kaoru was still curious.
"I'm a poisonous tail, but that's what I have to do with the subject. Now it's just pretending to scare and scare others. The poisonous fox held back for a while, and the fur on his body changed color again, "Look, it's like this." ”
"What's the matter with the person who was poisoned before?" Kong Li listened, the poisonous fox didn't say what he said.
"Maybe the stone itself is poisonous, but I'm not an ordinary animal, and I can fight poison with poison, so I'm fine. "The poisonous fox doesn't know exactly why. Anyway, it knew that if it weren't for this stone, he might have been captured by the Onmyoji a long time ago to do research.
"Old Poison, do you know where are our other brothers?" asked the Enchantment Fox as he asked the Poison Fox.
"Speaking of which, what about your two brothers? I remember you were a Trinity. Instead of answering the Enchantment Fox, the Poison Fox asked him this question that he shouldn't have asked.
"They were taken away for research. When I send it back, I don't have any souls......" Enchantment Fox said sadly.
"Uh...... I'm sorry......" The poisonous fox's mood also fell.
"But they should be back after connecting with the main body!" said the enchantment fox optimistically, "It's your turn, you haven't answered my question yet, do you know the whereabouts of our other brothers?"
"Don't say it, I really know!" the poisonous fox smiled mysteriously.
"Where are they?" asked Kaoru anxiously.
"You wait for me to think about it......" The poisonous fox spun around in place, "I remember one of the Taoist priests said that he went to the Reten Shrine and said that he had performed a soul exorcism for one of the magic weapons there. Another Taoist priest said that he went to Hakone to soak in the hot springs, but it was temporarily closed due to haunting. There is also an abbot from Sensoji Temple who said that the prediction rate of their temple has increased recently.
"I think it's Atsuta Shrine, right? I remember there's a powerful artifact there. The donkey corrected the poisonous fox.
"It doesn't matter if he's a hot field or a hot day. Anyway, it feels like there should be one there. I don't know what kind of artifact it is......" Poison Fox said his own conjecture.
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up!" Huai Xun has such a quick temper, as long as he knows the clues, he can't wait to rush over immediately.
