Chapter 399: Mysterious Cottage

Just after I avoided these cold arrows, a middle-aged man instantly shouted: "Shoot again, don't let the fox spirit in!" ”

When I heard that voice, I was helpless, it seemed that these people were thinking of me as a fox spirit, and when I saw this, I shouted to the archers on the high platform: "Stop, I am not a fox spirit, I am a human!" ”

But no matter how much I shouted and explained, there was no one in the existence who paid attention to me, as if I couldn't be heard at all.

Seeing this, I had to hide for a while, and only after those village names were tired of shooting, did I dare to cautiously approach the gate of the village, and at the same time, I shouted to those people again: "Everyone listen to me, I am really a person, a Taoist priest who came in from outside, I can help you deal with the fox spirit, please believe me!" ”

When I heard my words, the village fell silent in an instant, and not only did no one answer me, but no one shot at me anymore.

Seeing this, I immediately followed the fence towards the gate of the cottage, and when I reached the gate, I suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps from within.

When I heard the sound of footsteps, I immediately became vigilant, quickly pulled out the Bright Moon Sword behind my back, and became vigilant.

While I was on guard, the door was opened from the inside, and then three or four middle-aged men walked towards me, looked at me and asked, "Are you Li Jiuyi?" “

When I heard that those men knew my name, I was a little surprised and asked, "I am, how do you know my name?" ”

"Your friend is in our village, come in with us!" The three or four men looked at me and said.

"I see, thank you!" As I spoke, I followed the three men inside.

As soon as I walked in with the three men, they immediately locked the gate again, and then led me towards the village, and when I reached the road, one of the three men looked at me and said, "You two, dare to come to this Qiwang Temple, don't you want to die?" ”

"No, no, it's a long story, is my friend okay?" I digressed from the subject.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I suffered a little skin trauma, I'll take you to him now!" The middle-aged man looked at me and said.

"Okay, thank you!" As I spoke, I followed the middle-aged man towards the village.

I hurried all the way to the door of a large house in the middle of the village, when the man opened the door and led me inside.

When I entered the house, I saw that there were more than a dozen villagers sitting in the house at this moment, including men, women, old and young.

"Village Chief, someone brought it!" The middle-aged man said to an old man sitting in the middle.

"Well, young man, we were just going to look for you, so you just found it yourself, and you weren't hurt!" The old man asked, smiling at me.

"Thank you village chief, it's all right!" I looked at the old man and said.

"Well, it's okay, it's okay!" The old man looked at me and said.

Seeing this, I asked, "Village chief, my friend is here!" ”

"Ninety-one, I'm here!" Suddenly, Zhong Ling's voice came from behind me.

Seeing this, I turned around to look at Zhong Ling and asked, "Zhong Ling, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, I fell for the bewilderment spell of those fox demons before, and I was dragged here, so I simply met the people in the village and saved me, otherwise I would have been really eaten by those fox demons!" Zhong Ling looked at me and said.

After hearing Zhong Ling's words, I looked at the village chief and thanked again: "Thank you!" ”

"It's okay, young man, we want to thank you, we've been waiting for you!" The village chief stood up and looked at me and said.

After hearing the words of the village chief, I pointed at myself with some puzzlement and asked, "Wait for me, what do you mean by this, village chief?" “

When the village chief heard my words, he looked at me and explained: "Our village has been persecuted since the fox plague ten years ago, and we have suffered many disasters for more than ten years, and we have been trying our best to find a solution to this fox plague for more than ten years, until three years ago, we got a hint from the gods, and today we will meet a hero with a divine sword in his hand, who came down from the sky to save us, and that hero is you!" ”

"Hints from the gods, the village chief is a bit mysterious!" I looked at the village chief in disbelief and said.

"Young man, it's not mysterious, look at this!" As he spoke, the village chief took out a yellow piece of leather paper from his pocket and handed it to me.

Seeing this, I took the leather and looked at it in confusion, and saw that it was written in red, and there was a picture of a fox demon being killed by a man with a long sword.

Seeing this, I was even more puzzled, looked at the village chief and said, "Village chief, this is ...... It's a bit unconvincing! ”

When the village chief heard my words, he trembled and walked up to me, looked at me seriously, and said, "Young man, don't doubt that you are the hero appointed by God, please save us!" ”

After hearing the village chief's words, I looked at him in embarrassment and said, "Village chief, it's not that I don't want to save it, but I can't do anything about it!" You also saw that I was also chased by that fox demon here! ”

After hearing my words, the village chief immediately knelt down, looked at me and said, "Hero, you are sent by heaven, you will definitely save us, please help the hero!" ”

After hearing the words of the village chief, the other people in this room also fell to their knees in an instant, looked at me and shouted in unison: "Please hero, help!" ”

Seeing this, I was helpless for a while, so I looked at the villagers and said, "Okay, let's all get up first!" I'll find a way to deal with the fox demon, but I have to explain in advance, I'm really not a hero, I can only do my best, as for whether I can succeed or not, it's up to God's will! ”

After hearing my words, the village chief stood up with everyone in the eyes, looked at me and said with confidence: "Hero, we believe in you, you will definitely be able to!" ”

"I hope so!" I said helplessly.

At this time, Zhong Ling walked towards me, looked at me and asked, "Jiuyi, how sure are you?" “

"To be honest, I'm not sure, but if we don't get rid of this fox demon right now, we won't be able to get out!" I looked at Zhong Ling and said.

"Do you have any plans for now?" Zhong Ling looked at me and asked.

After hearing Zhong Ling's words, I shook my head again, then looked at the villagers and asked, "Let's make a plan for now!" Can any of you tell me where this fox demon is nesting? ”

After hearing my words, the village chief stepped forward and looked at me and said, "Hero, I can't hide it, we don't know where this fox demon is nesting, everyone only dares to move in the village, and no one dares to go out to see!" ”

After hearing the words of this village, I nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, in that case, I can only lure the snake out of the hole, find a way to attract those guys, and then catch them all!" ”

But as soon as I finished speaking, the village chief immediately objected: "Hero, never, never! There are a huge number of those fox demons, and they all eat people without spitting out bones, if you attract them all, even if you are capable, you will be invincible with two fists and four hands! ”

After hearing the words of the village chief, I looked at him and said: "Village chief, since you have entrusted this matter to me, then please believe me, since I dare to do this, I have a certain degree of certainty, now you have been hiding for more than ten years, if you don't take the initiative to attack, you will have to live in fear in this small village for the rest of your life!" ”

After hearing my words, the village chief hesitated for a long time, and then looked at the frightened villagers in front of him, sighed and said: "Yes, hero, you are right, we are old and young, we have been shrinking turtles for more than ten years, it's time to fight, life and death, wealth is in the sky, today we are under the leadership of heroes, and those fox demons fight to the death, never die!" ”

"Yes, never die!" A middle-aged man shouted in the lead.

"Don't die, don't die!" The villagers shouted in unison.

Seeing this, I looked at the village chief and asked again, "Village chief, what kind of Taoism are these fox demons doing now?" ”

"Actually, none of them are very deep, only one of them can transform into a human form, and the others are just ordinary fox shapes!" The village chief looked at me and said.

"In this way, that means that among these fox demons, the most powerful one is only a hundred years of Taoism! In this case, I am sure that it is a few percent bigger! I looked at the village chief and said.

"That hero, what are your plans right now!" The village chief looked at me and said.

After hearing the words of the village chief, I didn't answer and asked, "Village chief, don't worry about it first, you can tell me specifically, what are these fox demons afraid of?" ”

"What are you afraid of, according to our observations over the years, these things seem to be afraid of fire and a kind of grass in our village, we have used fire and that nameless grass against them all these years, I don't know if these two count!" The village chief looked at me and said.

"Forget it, of course forget it!" I nodded.

"What are we going to do next, hero!" The village chief looked at me and asked again.

After hearing the words of the village chief, I looked at everyone and said: "Everyone come to listen to me, everyone is listening to my arrangement now, our first step is to make traps, because those fox demons are huge, and we have limited time, so we must make a powerful trap in the shortest possible time to control those fox demons!" ”

After hearing my words, a middle-aged man came over, looked at me and said, "Hero, then how do we make a trap?" ”

After hearing the middle-aged man's words, I looked at him and said, "It's very easy to dig a pit!" ”

"Dig a pit, dig there?" The middle-aged man looked at me and asked again in confusion.

When I heard what he said, I looked at him and said, "Everyone, come out with me!" ”

With that, I quickly walked out with the village chief and the others, and then after observing the surroundings, I said, "Do you see the open space at the gate?" Dig there and dig three big pits side by side, at least two meters deep and one meter wide, and then at the bottom of the pits, fix the sticks with spikes, crush and paint the nameless grass around the sticks, and finally on the top of the trap, put a thin layer of branches, spread a layer of weeds on top of the branches, and cover the weeds with a layer of wet mud. When the time comes, once those fox demons rush in, these three deep pits are their burial places, do you understand? ”

"Understood!" After I explained in such detail, the names of the villages immediately said in unison.

"Then let's get to work!" I looked at the village names and said.

"Gotcha! Heroes, just look at it! We're absolutely fine with our work! The villagers immediately agreed in unison, and immediately went to find tools and start work.

Seeing this, I nodded with satisfaction, these villagers are indeed extremely organized, and it may have something to do with the fact that they have been fighting against those fox demons all these years.

It didn't take long for everyone to start arranging the trap in an orderly manner, and no one was opportunistic, so it took more than three hours for the three deep pits to be dug immediately, and after I looked at it and nodded, they began to lay the trap again.

Seeing this, Zhong Ling and I looked around the village to see if there were any other places that were exposed.

But just as we were walking around, suddenly Zhong Ling came over and looked at me and said, "Jiuyi, I always feel that something seems wrong there!" ”

"Something is wrong, something is wrong there?" I looked at Zhong Ling and said suspiciously.

"That's it, I can't say it, in fact, Jiuyi do you know? After I was stunned by those fox demons, I was already in this village when I woke up, so that is to say, I didn't see these people save me with my own eyes, and one of the things I was more puzzled about was that these villagers have not dared to leave the village for more than ten years, but they said that they saved me from outside the village, you think about it, isn't it a little strange! Zhong Ling looked at me and said.

After hearing Zhong Ling's words, I was instantly shocked into a cold sweat, and then looked at Zhong Ling and said: "Zhong Ling, listening to you say this, I also feel a little wrong, I don't know if you know, on the cliff above this village, there is a fox hole, and there is a bonfire in that hole!" ”

"There is a bonfire in the fox hole, could it be that those fox demons are all human!" Zhong Ling looked at me and said in surprise.

"No, I've observed all these people, and they all have extremely strong yang energy, so it shouldn't be, I suspect that there are fox demons mixed in these villagers!" I looked at Zhong Ling and said.

"So what now? In that case, your plan will be in vain! Zhong Ling looked at me and said.

"That fox demon must be found as soon as possible!" I looked at Zhong Ling and said, and quickly walked towards the villagers who had arranged the trap.

After walking to the villagers, I looked at the middle-aged man who had been talking the most, deliberately pretending to be concerned, stretched out my hand and gently patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hard work, hard work!" ”

When I patted this man on the shoulder, I quickly pasted a Kunlun Evil Talisman that had been hidden in the palm of my hand on his shoulder.
