Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Old Fox

Early in the morning, Cher and I were already on the way up the mountain.

Coming here again, I have mixed feelings. The chirping of birds in the mountains and forests can't help but make me feel a little nostalgic.

Walking to the mountain stream again, I glanced at Xue'er with complicated eyes. It was here that he was caught by Cher.

Because now Xue'er and I are not what we used to be, along the road at that time, we used to come to the cave where my grandfather was being held until four o'clock in the afternoon, and now it is only twelve o'clock that Xue'er and I have arrived here, four hours in advance.

Entering the cave, I took out a flashlight to illuminate it. Ten minutes later, Cher and I arrived at the inner cave at that time. The corpses of the seven fox demons and the village chief had decayed, and only white bones remained.

"Do you remember, when I got home, my grandfather sent you to talk to me alone," Cher said as she looked at me.

"I remember"

"At that time, my grandfather told me that on the day my grandfather was first taken away, the fox demons took him into this cave, and there was a secret passage in this cave. Another hidden cave can be reached through a secret passage. Cher said.

"Grandpa told me at the time that he would go in and find out when I was about the same strength as you, so he didn't tell you at the time," Cher said again.

I was amazed that there was a secret passage in this cave, and I really didn't know what kind of secrets were hidden in the mountain behind it.

After saying that, Cher and I searched for the secret passage mechanism.

After searching for about half an hour, I finally found the mechanism on a lamp on a high platform in the corner.

After twisting the mechanism, a thud was heard, and the entire cave shook twice. I saw a secret passage appear under the stone platform in the middle of the cave.

The dark passage was dark all day, so I turned on the flashlight and pulled Xue'er into the dark passage.

As soon as he stepped further, there were lights on both sides of the dark passage. I smiled awkwardly and put away my flashlight.

The dark passage is not very long, it is only nearly a hundred meters away, and there are two corners on the way.

After turning the second corner, a faint light appeared at the end of the tunnel. Cher and I sped up, and we were all surprised.

Out of the end, the sight in front of me shocked Cher and me. I saw that Cher and I were inside a huge cave, which was several times larger than the previous one.

What was even more amazing was that there was a small river in front of me.

"I remember my grandfather telling me that the fox demons had been walking along the upper reaches of the river with him, and as for what was upstream, my grandfather said that his last memory was that he had come here. Cher recalled.

With that, Cher and I walked in the direction of the upper reaches of the river.

The higher I went, the cooler it became. After walking a few hundred meters, I couldn't help but start to activate my vitality and flow all over my body, and my body gradually became warmer.

After walking for a few hundred meters, the yin qi in the cave became thicker and thicker, and Xue'er and I frowned.

"Little Yezi, the end of the cave should be dangerous," Xue'er said at this time.

"Well, be careful," I nodded. So he continued to walk upstream with Cher.

"Who is it?" said an old voice, coming from the depths of the cave.

Cher and I looked at each other, wary of each other.

"Answer me quickly, your breath is not my daughter, who are you?" said from the depths of the cave.

"Who are you, and where are you pretending to be a fool?" I replied, looking around.

"Hehe, I'm very bold, I'm at the end of the upstream, it's not far from you, if you have the ability, come and see me," the old voice smiled disdainfully.

After saying that, there was no more sound in the cave, and Cher and I began to run.

A few minutes later, Cher and I arrived at the end of the cave, only to see an empty stone chair in front of us, and there was no one around, so I asked

"Where are you coming out quickly?"

"Hahaha, I'm really bold" Suddenly there was a sound in the direction of the stone chair, and when I heard the sound, I saw that the stone chair that was empty just now was now sitting on an old woman who was in her last years.

"My daughters haven't come to see me for months, I remember the last time they came to see me, they told me that they would bring a kid with a monster in their body to practice pills for me to help me increase my lifespan, and I didn't wait for so long!" the old woman said with a sigh.

I was surprised for a while, it turned out that this old woman was the mother of the seven fox demons, but it seemed that she was obviously in her last years, waiting for her final lifespan to disappear.

"Your daughter is dead," Cher said.

"Hehe, my guess is not bad, you little ghost has the breath of my daughter, you must have killed my seven daughters, right?" The old woman heard that her daughter was dead, not only did she not get angry, but asked Xue'er with a smile.

"Yes, I killed you, but do you think you can avenge your daughter with your old and sick body?"

"Little girl, you must have underestimated my wife too much" The old woman smiled sinisterly, and instantly turned into a nine-tailed fox and rushed towards Xue'er.

Xue'er's cultivation these days was not in vain, I saw that she instantly condensed a yin qi sword in her hand, jumped lightly, and stabbed at the old fox with a sword.

"Ahh

"I didn't expect that at such a young age, it turned out to be the realm of ghost cultivation," the old woman reluctantly stood up, sat down on the stone chair and said.

"Tell me, what do you want to do here?" said the old woman with a smile.

Since she has come here, and there are such good things, so if you don't pit her, it will be in vain, I whispered to Xue'er.

"We don't do anything, you are also a centuries-old goblin, give us any good treasures, anyway, I think it won't be long before your life span will end." Cher said.

"If you want my treasures, I won't need them anyway" After speaking, the old woman waved her hand, and dozens of treasures appeared in front of me and Xue'er.

Dozens of treasures were scattered on the ground, and my heart immediately surged. At this time, a scabbard caught my eye.

I picked up the scabbard and looked at it carefully, and found that it seemed to fit my broken knife, so I took out the broken knife and inserted it into the scabbard, and it was indeed suitable.

"Where did you get this broken knife?" the old woman asked.

I didn't pay any attention to her, why should I tell her how I got my own knife.

"This scabbard, I grabbed it from a monk when I was young, originally my target was the knife in the monk's hand, the knife was a demon knife, but unfortunately half broken, but the power is also very strong, I tried my best to beat the monk to a serious injury, and I almost died, in the end only snatched this scabbard, although it was only a scabbard, and when I regained my strength and went to grab the knife again, the monk was already dead, and the knife was gone. The old woman looked at the broken knife in my hand and said.

"Do you know the secret of this demon sword?" I asked, confused.
