Chapter 17: The Nephew and the Nine-Tailed Fox
When Ji Ao was a child, he met a friend of his grandfather, a nine-tailed fox, and the old man gave Ji Ao the impression that he was kind and kind, and even gave him some advice on spells, so Ji Ao has always had a good impression of this race.
He knew that the nine-tailed fox lived in a group in the form of a family, and this kind of goblin with a strong family concept would never let a child run around alone, and it was estimated that there was a big family in the vicinity.
Ji Ao's thought flashed, and he excitedly wanted to say hello to them, and presented them with a "Fill the Gap in the Monster Race in Lidan City" or something.
Jin Ying has always spoken little, let alone automatically talking to passengers, and there was no sound in the carriage, and the five young people did not talk.
The man sitting in the front seat smoked cigarette after cigarette, and the car was filled with smoke, while the other four men in the reflective mirror stared gloomily at the road ahead. Their clothes are somewhat bulging, and they may have some kind of knife hidden inside.
When approaching the destination, the man sitting in the front seat suddenly said: "Wait a minute, don't go to 'Hongguang', go to No. 95 Kangling Road." ”
"Kangling ......"
Kangling is the most remote urban area in Lidan City, Jin Yinghu repeated the address suspiciously, and turned around without saying anything.
"Hey, this driver is really bold enough today! I thought that there were so many things happened recently, and no taxi dared to go to that place again!"
Jin Ying sighed secretly in her heart, didn't Ji Ao's crow mouth really hit him again, right? It was really "them"? They really didn't have ordinary bad luck when they saw their cars.
He turned his face sideways to look at Yan'er, who had already lost his sleepiness at this time, and was standing on the back of the chair and repeatedly examining the man in the seat in front of him, measuring with his mouth from time to time, as if he was thinking about how to put his mouth down.
"What do you see, do you think your two eyeballs are too much?" the man scolded when he saw Jin Ying turn his face to look at him.
Even Jin Hotaru couldn't help but roll her eyes and look out the window.
When the car arrived at its destination, several people slammed the door and walked out of the car, but there was no other action that Yan'er expected.
"Thirty-six dollars, thank you. Jin Ying hurriedly reminded them of the "forgot" thing.
"You kid is really bold enough!" The man who was "praising Jin Ying" in the car just now suddenly turned around, he stared at Jin Ying viciously, pulled out a machete from his waist, and slammed it on the car window, "Lao Tzu never gives money when he rides! Don't you know?"
"Hotaru, we can deal with it according to the old rules now!" "Firefly, who had been feeling bored, immediately began to be energetic again, and it eagerly asked Jin Hotaru that the biggest disadvantage of living in the city is that there are too few opportunities to show her skills, and it often makes it feel that there is no place for heroes.
"Old Five, don't make a mistake!" The man who looked like the leader snorted coldly, stopped the man with the machete in his hand, took out a hundred-yuan bill, shoved it into the car window, and glared at Jin Ying, "No need to look for it, get out of here!" After speaking, the five people walked away.
"This kind of person shouldn't give money, right?" Jin Ying shook the bill, looking thoughtfully at the disappointed Yan'er.
"That's right, why do they give money, why do they give money?" Yan'er watched them leave with a huff.
"What's the matter that they'd rather pay than delay?" muttered Hotaru as she looked in the direction they had disappeared.
"Can I lose it in this way?Could it be that my tracking skills have regressed?Forget it, as long as it's still in this city, I'll definitely meet it again," Ji Ao walked around, but he couldn't find the whereabouts of the nine-tailed fox, he scratched his head in confusion, he shook his hand, and immediately decided to give up, "Go back, find a place to drink." ”
After only a few steps, suddenly the night wind came from not far away. Ji Ao raised his head alertly, the whistling of the wind mixed with a scream, turning in his ears from time to time, and there was a faint smell of blood on the tip of his nose.
Ji Ao bowed, and the whole person disappeared into the ground, running in the direction of the headwind.
In the bright moonlight, in the barren grass, two strange animals are fighting to the death.
One of them is a huge youkai like a fox. It had nine tails like a nine-tailed fox, and it also had nine heads, and the claws of a tiger, and was roaring and pounced on its opponents. It struggled under its claws to resist the little nine-tailed fox that Ji Ao had just seen.
This little fox was obviously no match for an enemy who was several times different in size, and he was covered in blood and struggled to hold on. The big monster showed no mercy to its weak opponent, struck the little fox out with a fierce swing of its claws, and then jumped up and pounced on it.
Suddenly, a sharp claw reached out from beneath the ground, clutching the sharp claws of the huge fox. The big youkai took a few steps back and watched as the claws slowly rose from the ground: long hair, pointed ears, pointed fangs, black claws......
"梼杌. ”
"Nephew. ”
The two big monsters looked at each other and called out each other's names in unison.
"You don't have to bully you, that's so boring, come on! I'm having a hard time being idle anyway. Come on!" Ji Ao casually picked up the dying little fox on the ground, threw it into the distance, and pressed the knuckles of his fingers with a "click", provocative at his nephew.
He had always despised this kind of sneaky ghost race that stayed underground in the ground, but this one in front of him made him look at it differently, his calm attitude, although he didn't do his best just now, but he was easily held up by the blow.
"I ...... Never fight a battle that you are not sure of, hahaha!" The nine heads of the nephew laughed in unison, and looked at Ji Ao with blazing eyes.
"It turns out that you only bully the weak!" Ji Ao continued to provoke it, this guy was indeed "underwhelmed".
"That's my merit. The nephew was not angry, but still laughed.
"Haha............" Ji Ao also laughed, Ji Ao had a feeling of being a hero and a hero, and warmly invited it, "I like this, I like you guy, you have the shameless advantage of human beings, come, let's go have a drink together." ”
"Another day," the nephew nodded slightly to Ji Ao, "Everyone lives in this city, so don't worry about not seeing each other in the future." ”
After saying that, it sank into the grass and quickly disappeared.
"There's another troublesome guy in the city, so don't worry about having nothing to do. Ji Ao crossed his arms and muttered to himself as he watched him leave.
He knew that his nephew would definitely chase the little nine-tailed fox. But he hid it in the grass, and he reached out and picked it up and asked, "Why did he attack you?"
The little nine-tailed fox looked like it was about to die, and it barely opened its eyes, then closed them weakly.
It turned out that it was seriously injured than expected, and Ji Ao hurriedly put it down to check its injury. As soon as the little nine-tailed fox landed, he suddenly bit Ji Ao's finger and ran into the grass quickly and escaped.
"Oh! It's a fox, so cunning at a young age," Ji Ao looked at the grass in annoyance, and shook his bitten fingers, "How did the parents of that little fox discipline their children? This is how they treat their life-savers? When I see them, I must talk to them about educating their children." ”
Although the nephew looks like a fox, he is the old enemy of the fox, and there are two kinds of monsters in this city, the nephew and the nine-tailed fox, what is going on? It shouldn't be as simple as a coincidence, right? Ji Ao shook his head in confusion, licking his injured fingers and thinking.
Jin Hotaru stopped the car and looked at the place where the five people had entered. The door sign with peeling white paint reads "Chengwei Biological Research Institute".
"Hotaru, what does the Biological Research Institute do?" Yan'er asked, puzzled.
