Chapter 1084: Auction
Outside the door owner's mansion, as soon as Wang Wu went out, he felt that the beads in his hand were strange, and he opened his palms to look, and sure enough, he saw that the beads were glowing.
But the fox king said that the bead would only light up when it was very close to the little fox.
Now in this situation, is the little fox nearby?
But that's not right!
How many miles within this radius are the city lord's mansion.
According to Ye Chen's judgment, the little fox should be locked up in the black market owner's house now.
The bead that was still shining lying in the palm of his hand, Wang Wu tentatively moved his right hand, changing positions forward, backward, left and right.
As soon as the main one is close to the location of the city lord's mansion, the color of the beads will be relatively lighter.
But as soon as you approach the opposite direction of the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the light of the beads will become brighter and brighter, and the more you go there, the brighter it will become.
And according to the fox king, the difference in location will not exceed three streets.
After calculating the distance, Wang Wu concluded that it should be on the other side of the three streets, in a house that looked abandoned to outsiders.
When they came back from the snow-capped mountains that day, they heard from people living nearby that the house was left by a Xiuzhen family a hundred years ago, and it was said that it was very haunted.
The specific reason is because a hundred years ago, the family suddenly all died violently, from the elderly to the babies, no one was spared, and even the cats and dogs in the family died unexpectedly.
At that time, the city lord ordered someone to collect the corpse of the family, and also did a legal matter, and after investigating for a long time, the cause of death was not found, so he had to make that matter an unsolved case.
Soon after that day, rumors began to spread in the city that the house was haunted, and that in the dead of night, the ghosts of those who had died tragically roamed the house.
It's a pity that they can't leave the house, and they don't see what they do, and they can't tell their grievances, so they can only cry for their grandfather.
There were a few old descendants who didn't believe in ghosts, and they broke in in the middle of the night, but the people were fine, but after they ran out crying, they all went crazy.
They giggled day and night, but as soon as they saw the people in black, they screamed wildly, shouting that there were ghosts.
Since then, this house has become a yin house in the mouths of the people in the city, and no one dares to approach half a step closer, and those who occasionally pass by do not dare to stop.
Of course, most people try to walk around as much as possible.
Getting this inference, Wang Wu immediately returned and returned to Ye Chen.
Still wondering why Wang Wu suddenly returned, Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh when he heard his reply.
"No wonder the house was suddenly haunted, it turned out that someone had occupied the magpie's nest and found a place for himself. Ye Chen sneered, "In this way, that family may have been killed by the black market boss." ”
First, he found a suitable place to live for himself, found that there were people to live in, and simply killed them all, and then spread rumors of haunting, set up an enchantment, and lived in it with peace of mind.
"It's a shame. The fox king said coldly, "If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, God can't stand it anymore, so I sent you to collect him." ”
Ye Chen shook his head when he heard this: "It's not me, it's your son." ”
If it weren't for the little fox being caught, the black market boss wouldn't have appeared in front of them, and these things wouldn't have been suspected by them.
"In that case, there must be an enchantment in the house, and we can't force ourselves to save people. Ye Chen looked at the Fox King, "There must be a lot of masters in that house, and when the time comes, they will jump over the wall in a hurry, and the little fox will be in danger." ”
"Hmm. The fox king took a deep breath.
A little rabbit cub, this time the matter is over, he must be punished to kneel in the ancestral tomb for three days and three nights, and see if he dares to run around in the future?
In the early morning of the next day, Ye Chen found the city lord of Xuancheng and asked him to send some of his subordinates to investigate the mansion, on the grounds that he felt very suspicious and it was necessary to investigate.
The city lord of Xuancheng felt empty when he heard this, he had been robbing tombs for so many years
The city lord, if you want to collude with the demon beasts in private, sell snow lotus and snow fox, you must sell it again.
And the Xuancheng black market is one of his channels.
Therefore, in fact, the city lord of Xuancheng knew that the mansion was the residence of the black market owner.
He also guessed that the murder case that shocked Xuancheng back then was probably done by the black market boss.
But for his own interests, the city lord of Xuancheng chose to turn a blind eye, if the black market boss was exposed, he would have one less place to make money.
From the eyes of the Xuancheng City Lord, Ye Chen saw his thoughts and sneered in his heart.
Sure enough, this hypocrite, damn it.
"Mr. Ye. The city lord pretended to be embarrassed, "I think you must have heard that the house is haunted, it's not that I don't want to check, but ......"
"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Ye Chen sharply interrupted him, "I am still a city lord, and I am not afraid of this." What's more, the city lord is also a cultivator, and he is afraid of ghosts? If the people in the city know about this, they will be disappointed. ”
Knowing that Ye Chen was agitating the general, the city lord was still stimulated.
If the people know about it, the reputation he has worked so hard for many years will collapse.
Because of Ye Chen's words, the city lord had completely forgotten the real reason why he didn't dare to search the mansion, and thought that he was really afraid of ghosts.
It wasn't until he swore that Ye Chen promised to send someone to investigate, and then Ye Chen left satisfied, that he found out that he had promised something terrible.
I regret all the things in my heart, and now it's too late.
The words spoken are like water spilled out, as the saying goes, it is difficult to collect the water.
What's more, when he promised, there were subordinates and servant girls by his side.
Gritting his teeth, the city lord called his henchmen while remorseful, and asked the henchmen to report immediately, asking the black market boss to prepare and not be discovered.
Half an hour later, the black market boss got a secret letter from the city lord, and after thanking the visitor, he immediately ordered everyone to evacuate the house, and used the fastest time to decorate the place as if it had been abandoned for a hundred years.
The little fox squatted in the cage in a daze, completely unintelligible, why were these people so wild all of a sudden?
Glancing at the little fox's expression, the black market boss raised his eyebrows and said, "Little thing, perhaps, you have heard the name Ye Chen." ”
He used an affirmative sentence, so this sentence does not need an answer.
Of course, the little fox's next expression already says it all.
"No wonder. The black market boss suddenly realized, "It's just that you were caught by a hunter and escaped by yourself, but it turned out that there was a master." ”
He pinched his chin and said to himself: "But these things have been said in the past, now you are a demon beast in my black market hands, and you have to be auctioned off obediently......"
Hearing the word "auction", the little fox was immediately furious and stood up with his teeth bared.
I'm the little tiger king, daring?
When my father finds me, he will kill you.
At this moment, in the city lord's mansion, the sky has gradually darkened, and he still hasn't seen the city lord act, and the fox king is a little impatient.
"What's going on?" said the fox king anxiously, "Could it be that the city lord is delaying......"
The fox king's words came to an abrupt end, if a person with that strength got the news not long ago, this half a day would be enough to evacuate and fake the house as uninhabited.
And even if you don't have to forge it, others don't know who lives in it during this time.
