Chapter Forty-Eight: The Fox Reappears
We are very close to the woods, so we can hear clearly.
Patting our butts and standing up, all three of us looked at the woods.
The sound was like someone hurrying over.
"Here we are." The fourth brother said, "If it's another monster, we'll run away immediately." β
Needless to say, the fourth brother is ready to escape.
Unexpectedly, it was not a monster that came out of the woods, but Wu Qian and the three of them.
"It's okay with you." The third brother was obviously a little worried, "I sensed an evil aura in the woods just now, and by the time we returned to the cave, the cave had already been destroyed. β
"Haha, we're fine." The fourth brother smiled and patted me on the shoulder, "Thanks to the sixth brother, he set a fire." β
"No wonder, I'll just say where the smoke came from." The third brother walked over, "Look at the three of you, grizzled and dirty, where are the bags?" β
"Don't mention it, there were a lot of rats, the paper in the backpack was burned, and even the backpack was burned in the end, if it wasn't for the sixth child who set a fire at the end, we might have been eaten by mice." The fourth brother wiped his face.
I didn't answer the topic of the fourth brother, "Third brother, aren't you going to chase that ghost fox, haven't you chased it?" β
"No, it should be a real fox, not a ghost, even if it is a ghost, it is a resurrection of a corpse." The second brother lifted the fox in his hand, it was already dead, and there was still a talisman on his head.
"We've surrounded and blocked, and we've finally caught this." The third brother walked over.
"Sixth, are you okay, the clothes on your back are gone." The third brother suddenly spoke.
"Ah, yes, I haven't seen it yet." The fourth brother pulled me over, "It's burned, but you can take a look, this doesn't look like a fox." β
So, the three of them circled around me, as if admiring my back.
"Don't look at it, what is there to see about the big man." I pulled my clothes, I don't know if it was because of the fox, I felt very uncomfortable being looked at.
"Tsk." The fourth brother smashed his mouth.
"By the way, there should be something terrible coming out of that cave, do you see it, we have to catch it, lest that thing go out and harm the villagers." The third brother glanced at the black scum on the ground.
"Third brother, don't doubt it, it's the pile of black scum on the ground." I stepped on it, "There's a bowl in that cave, and there's water in it, and anyway, I don't know what's wrong, this thing was spilled by water, and then it turned into slag." β
It seems like that's what happened.
"Water? Is there really such a powerful water? The third brother obviously didn't believe it, "I think, if it's really so powerful, I'm afraid it was left by the seniors." β
"But if you can destroy that thing, then why seal it in that cave with a bowl of water."
"Hey, put out the fire." Wu Qian's cold voice came.
That's when I started to pay attention to the situation around me.
The fire did not reach the woods, but the rats were set on fire and ran around, and a lot of hay was burning.
It's hot and hot.
Just after these things were settled, the weather suddenly cleared, and now there are still dark clouds, replaced by the sun is shining, and the heat is unbearable.
"Mom!" I yelled and ran into the woods, but the wind was blowing to one side, and there was only one lump of smoke to look at.
"Don't worry about the sixth, this kind of fire can't be started, and at first glance, I haven't seen a mountain fire." The fourth brother raised his hand.
I was still not at ease, so I ran into the woods, and sure enough, although the leaves were scorched, the fire was not enough to burn the whole tree.
After the rain, the woods were still very wet.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
This Wu Qian must be manipulating me, I have made up my mind.
I wandered around the forest for a long time, and snuffed out all the sparks, but the fire of this fox was really powerful, and all these rats on fire turned into scum.
When I checked and got out of the woods, the men were talking and laughing.
"It can't burn." I'm a little displeased.
"Let's go, get down to business." When Wu Qian saw me come out, he didn't dump me, and walked directly into the forest.
I couldn't tell the direction, I hadn't since I got in.
Followed and walked out.
"Master, I will stay behind you for the time being, and I will not betray you." The fox's voice came again.
"I don't dare to say that you're still in my body now, you almost killed us before, and to be honest, I don't really believe you." I'm blunt.
After all, when she led us to find the fox's corpse, a group of ghosts there had an accident and made a rotten fox covered in rotten rottenness, causing us to be chased by a group of rats, which was like the fox's pot in any way.
Most importantly, the fox hasn't been seen since it took us there.
Even I didn't feel the slightest sound from her.
"Master, what are you suspicious, I was scared just now, I was very afraid of my father." The fox sensed my emotions.
Her voice was pitiful, "The seal in that cave is the breath of the Taoist priest who sealed me, and I'm afraid too!" β
"Okay, okay, I'm sure you're okay, anyway, don't do anything anymore." I walked at the back of the line and finally came to the familiar place.
This is the ditch where we came, the burial place of her father, as the fox said.
However, it is clear that the fox ghost who is doing the evil has been sealed on the dead fox, and the legend that the head and body need to be united to be satisfied may be false.
However, with Wu Qian's means, even if it is true, it is not easy to make a fake?
The fox stopped talking, and our group returned to the village.
At this time, it was already past noon, and it was almost time.
I'm a little irritable, I haven't eaten for three meals, and I still look like this ghost, I can't wait to go back early.
Fortunately, the villagers are still caring, and under the arrangement of the third brother, the food was delivered to this Yizhuang, which also saved me the trouble of leaving here and having another incident.
This dish is also quite hearty, there is meat and vegetables, and the rice is enough.
At the end of the meal, I ate about two bowls of rice, two full bowls.
After eating and drinking, I leaned on the bag and took a nap, this is the bag with tools that I didn't take, fortunately I didn't take this thing away, otherwise I would have to rely on Wu Qian to perform alone tonight.
Anyway, now that there's nothing left, I don't mind sleeping here.
Half-asleep, I seemed to see a white fox sitting next to me, licking its white fur.
It seems that there is more than one tail?
This fox looks quite beautiful, could it be that he has been single for a long time, and he feels beautiful when he looks at a fox?
I closed my eyes again, sleepy.
"Hey, get up." As soon as this voice came out, I woke up all at once.
Wu Qian is really not polite to me at all now, since I knew that he would attack me without hesitation, I was also on guard against him everywhere, for fear that he would go crazy and kill me all of a sudden.
At least during the time I had the fox in my body, I didn't feel safe with him at all.
I see his current attitude towards me, if he really realizes that my fox is harmful, he will probably do everything possible to eliminate the danger, including disposing of me, this is really a cold person from the heart to the outside, how can he still care about the friendship of his former classmates.
I rolled over and let him go, and I watched him pick up the bag.
I looked at the sky, and it was almost dark.
The third brother made a fire in the yard.
"Keep an eye on your fox, don't come out and hang out." Wu Qian said this coldly.
"What, you're still going to kill it?" I picked up the bag he had dropped on the ground.
"Try?" Wu Qian stood still and stared at me.
Maybe the buddies around him noticed that something was wrong, so they came over one after another.
I also kept my mouth shut, I didn't want the third brother to quarrel with Wu Qian.
To be honest, Wu Qian is so dangerous, I really want to resign, anyway, I have a fox to protect me now.
The fire was really powerful.
"Sixth, don't trust the fox." The fourth brother frowned.
I thought they would help me speak, but I didn't expect to help this Wu Qian, really, I felt very irritable for a while.
They set up the candles and waited until it was dark, and I didn't help, so I sat on the floor and watched them.
Finally, it got darkΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
