Chapter 70: Barter
Huh? I couldn't help but gossip, I didn't expect that the white fox and Xie Xin'an would have emotional relations? Was it hundreds of years ago?
"Tell me about it!" I crouched on the edge of the cage and waited for the white fox to continue.
She closed her mouth and tilted her head to look at me: "Will you let me go?" β
"I still have to ask Lord Bai." I took half a step back and kept a safe distance from the white fox, no matter what she said was true or not, in order to avenge the little girl, in order to protect the patrol, I still have to report to Xie Xin'an about killing the seven villager puppets for Tianxingdao, as for the authenticity, Xie Xin'an's accuracy in distinguishing is naturally better than me, she has many means and a wide range of contacts.
Of course, I need to be artistic in my speech, so as not to be fooled by Xie Xin'an again, demons have different paths, people and ghosts have different paths, Xie Xin'an and White Fox, these two guys look harmless to humans and animals, and even look very beautiful, who should I believe, I don't have a bottom in my heart.
So, after the phone was connected, I asked directly: "My lord, you and that fox used to be rivals in love, right?" β
That's the key question!
Xie Xin'an was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said, "What did she tell you?" β
"It seems that yes," I nodded to myself, obviously, "my lord, what I am going to report to you next, I hope you can put aside your previous prejudices with the fox, or say that you can have a holiday, and listen to me sensibly, okay?" β
"Heh," Xie Xin'an sneered, "You actually dare to teach this palace a lesson?" β
"The subordinates don't mean that, let's all be sensible, lest we kill the good guys by mistake or let the bad guys go." I said seriously.
"Okay, you say."
I reported the cause and effect of the little fox being interrogated by me just now to Xie Xin'an.
"So, we may have caught the wrong person, in order to prove his innocence, that fox is willing to follow us to catch the real murderer - another fox spirit, that is, the murderer who killed Li Xiaotao and her five girls!" I make my closing remarks.
After I finished speaking, Xie Xin'an said calmly: "First, this palace told you not to meddle in the affairs of the demon world, yes or no?" β
"That's right, but this is not a matter of the demon world, Li Xiaotao and the five of them have been following the murder, you know this." I argued that the forensic doctor Fang Yuan can testify, whether actively or passively, anyway, I have always been entangled with this case and cannot be separated.
"Second," Xie Xin'an said to himself, "Bengong said that Bengong doesn't care about the affairs of the living, yes or no?" β
ββ¦β¦ Yes, you don't have to worry about it, my lord, I'll just go with the white fox. "I said, but if Xie Xin'an doesn't go, to be honest, I'm afraid that the little white fox will seduce me halfway, what if I run away again? I can't stop her.
"Third," Xie Xin'an continued, "you are the hearse driver of the funeral home, not the patrol of the house, yes and no?" β
"This ...... My lord, you may not know the system of our Yang Realm, especially the system of Yanxia, this kind of thing, everyone is responsible! "I said seriously, after all, I have a special organizational identity, I am a member of the world's largest or something!
"After I finish speaking, if you think you can do this task, this palace will not stop you, just a request." Xie Xin'an said again.
"You say." I was pleasantly surprised, and after talking for a long time, didn't she still spit out!
"I don't want the white fox's demon pill, but the treasure knife is gluttonous, you must send it to the palace!"
My phone is on speakerphone, look at the little fox, what should I do? People want to rob and rob your demon world magic weapon, give it or not?
The white fox turned her head indifferently and looked away, she couldn't help it if she was controlled by others.
"Where are you, sir? I'll send you the gluttonous sword! β
"Yuantai Coffee."
"Okay, half an hour," I hung up the phone excitedly and looked at the little fox again, "I believe you anyway, whether you are worth believing or not, it's up to you." β
After speaking, I pulled out the gluttonous treasure knife and directly cut the dog cage in half, to say that this knife is really sharp, obviously dozens of wires, but the feeling of my chopping down is not much different from cutting watermelon.
"You...... Is this going to let me out? "The white fox was very puzzled by my actions.
"Trust," I sheathed the knife and handed it directly to her, "If you want to run, you can run now when you grab the knife, if you want to prove your innocence and help me capture the demon, then follow me first to give your treasure knife gluttony to Lord Bai." β
"Hehe," the white fox paced out of the cage, "what if I don't choose either?" β
"What do you mean?" I got nervous, and when it came out of the cage, it was noticeably bigger, from the size of a teddy to the size of a husky!
"With my current strength, I can directly grab the knife, and then coerce you to go to Qipan Mountain to catch my peer, at that time, the suspect will belong to you, and the knife will belong to me, so that I can prove my innocence and not lose my gluttony, why not?" The white fox smirked, fortunately it didn't continue to get bigger, if it became as big as I saw in the conference room of the patrol room, it might not only scare me to death, but also the other visitors in the park, it would be lively......
"I'm still the same two words, trust." I have no other excuse but to try to establish a mutual trust mechanism with the white fox.
The white fox nodded: "Okay, since you believe in me so much, then I will cooperate with you once, you go and send the knife, I will wait for you here." β
It's good not to grab a knife! As for worrying about her running, there's no need, if she wants to run, she can run now!
I turned around and ran to the wall of the park, climbed over the wall, and drove Alpha quickly to the Yuantai Cafe on Yincheng Street, but Xie Xin'an was not here, only Xiaoli was at the front desk, saying that Xie Xin'an had an explanation before leaving, and asked me to give her something.
I handed the gluttony to Xiaoli, who locked the knife in a safe that looked like papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and gave me a small stick that looked like a shoehorn, saying that Xie Xin'an borrowed my weapon?
"What kind of weapon is this?" I'll take it, it, it's so heavy!
This weight is too familiar, isn't it the weight of Xie Xin'an's mourning stick, I hugged it with both hands last night!
"Do you know how to use it?" Xiaoli asked with a smile, I shook my head, in my hand, it was a shoehorn.
"Mantra: The world is impermanent, the yin qi turns into shadows, the bright moon has no light, and the world is peaceful."
It's easy to remember, I read it again, and the last word "ping" just blurted out, and the shoehorn in his hand suddenly transformed, turning into Bai Wuchang's mourning stick full of small spikes, but the strange thing is that the weight has changed, and it has become many times lighter, even only the weight of a clothes pole!
"Why is it so light?" I wondered, this is not in accordance with the law of conservation of mass!
"The artifact, it has its own reason, you just need to master how to use it, when you don't use it, recite the spell upside down, and it can return to its original form."
"The world is peaceful, the bright moon has no light, the yin gas transforms into shape, and the world is impermanent!" I recited the incantation backwards, my hand sank, and the mourning stick changed back to its original weight, but it was still in the form of a mourning stick, not a shoehorn, and maybe with my ability, I could only make it become a mourning stick, and it could not change into any other form.
Xiao Li didn't explain, and arched her hand: "I wish Lord Wu a triumphant!" β
I'm a little blindsided, should this mourning stick be heavy or light?
At least, it was inconvenient to walk around with such a heavy mourning stick, so after leaving the cafΓ©, I recited a spell to make it lighter, put it in the car first, went to a nearby paper burning shop, bought some yellow straw paper, wrapped the ears of the mourning stick, and tied it firmly with a straw rope on the outside, so that I couldn't see what was inside, only the outline of a stick about one meter long.
On the way back, when I arrived at the park, I climbed over the wall and went back to play chess with the old man, but I only saw a cage broken in half on the grass! What about the white fox? It shouldn't be a breach of contract and run away alone!
It doesn't seem to be, I didn't see the white fox, but I saw that in the small pavilion not far away, the old man who had been angry with the bald man before had come back and was playing chess with a teenage girl......
