Volume 2 Xia He Chapter 74 The Cunning Fox

It's about to enter the dog days, and the scorching sun is in the sky. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the early rice in the field is green and yellow, the heavy rice ears hang low, the wind blows, the rice waves roll, and the rice fragrance bursts.

Aunt Hu wanted to give me a straw hat to wear, but I refused. Every summer, we are sunburned like a crow, which is nothing, and I don't think it's hot because I have something on my mind.

Aunt Hu has been talking to me all the time. Let's talk about the fat man's situation first, full of worries.

Last time I gave the fat man a treat, Aunt Hu gave me Xie Yi ten yuan, I insisted on not accepting it, she refused anyway, saying that she knew that "my mother and grandfather kissed a liter of fragrant rice", no matter how much, but it can't break the rules. I also squeezed and said if it was too little, and glanced at Liu Lili, who was looking at me from the side, and I was embarrassed to accept it.

Take people's money to eliminate disasters for others. But the disaster didn't go away, which made me not only embarrassed but also annoyed, and I felt very shameless.

I told the drunkard about the fat man's illness when I got home, and he reminded me to be careful, saying that the fox itself is the most spiritual animal, treacherous and cunning, second only to man in intelligence. The fox is even more beautiful and fickle, which is very troublesome and difficult to deal with. If you can't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, the future will be endless.

I was a little unimpressed at the time, the mandrill ghost animals were all cut down and subdued by me, what is a mere fox?

The fox we have in the mountains, and I have seen it, looks like a dog, with round eyes like a cat, and a long tail and a furry body that resembles a weasel, except that they are much larger than a weasel. Another point similar to the weasel is that it can also emit a pungent and peculiar odor, which makes people want to vomit, and the term "fox odor" comes from it. They mostly live in tree cavities or soil burrows, go out in the evening to feed, and do not return to their nests until dawn. They have sharp ears and a keen sense of smell, and they run so fast that ordinary hounds can't catch up with them.

The drunkard, who worked as a mountain catcher for a while in his youth, told me that foxes were cunning and strong, and that they were "robbers" in the animal kingdom. Its nest is usually forcibly snatched from weak animals such as rabbits, and there are many entrances that twist and turn the inside. In general, they are not afraid of dogs, they are fast, small and flexible, and a hunting dog cannot catch them at all.

The fox is very intelligent, and if it sees a hunter making a trap, it will quietly follow the hunter's butt, and when it sees the other person set a trap and leave, it will go to the trap and leave a foul smell that can be known by its companions as a warning. When it encounters a hedgehog, the fox will drag the curled hedgehog into the water. When the duck is accustomed to letting its guard down, it will sneak into the water with a large handful of dead grass as a cover, and dive into the water to wait for an opportunity to hunt.

In particular, the drunkard told me that the fox also has an incomprehensible strange behavior called "killing": for example, if it jumps into the chicken coop and kills all the chickens inside, it only takes one of them. It also likes to look for birds' nests on stormy nights, and after biting all the birds to death, it does not eat any of them, nor does it take them away, this unreasonable murderous nature makes it even more ferocious and vicious.

I was amazed that everyone knew the word cunning fox, but I didn't know about these strange behaviors. If you think about it, maybe this is all its animal instinct, and it is the natural law of the animal kingdom that the law of the jungle is the law of the animal kingdom, and the objects of its bullying are all small animals that are weaker than it, and generally speaking, it does not pose a threat to us humans. Only foxes that have grown into sperm will harm humans. They often transform into beautiful women, seducing men, sucking their souls and sucking their essence, and ordinary warlocks often suffer from them. The most famous is the concubine in "The Romance of the Feng God", and there are also many stories of fox spirits in Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", although they are all novelists' words, I don't know whether they are true or false, for us warlocks who subdue demons and eliminate demons, it is also better to believe it than to believe it.

Perhaps the drunkard saw my underestimation of my enemy, and repeatedly told me to be careful and not to be careless.

Now this matter has been unfortunately told by the drunkard. All the way, I thought that I must save face and get rid of the scourge no matter what.

Aunt Hu noticed my embarrassment, and quickly changed the topic and asked me, "Xianghong, are you in your teens this year?" How many sisters are in the family? ”

"I belong to the snake, thirteen this year, I have a sister and a sister."

"Then you are younger than our Lily, my Lily is a dragon, a year older than you. I heard Lily say that you have good grades, especially good composition, you are in the same class, don't you say that classmates should help each other, and you can teach her hard? ”

"Liu Lili is a member of the study committee, her grades are better than mine, I have to learn from her, where will I be taught? She taught me pretty much the same! ”

Speaking of Liu Lili, Aunt Hu is obviously a little proud, and she talks a lot, saying that she was obedient and sensible when she was a child, and she has a very good relationship with her brother, but she is timid, she doesn't talk much, etc., I am a little absent-minded, and I have a sentence to answer.

Yangjiawan to the three arches bridge six or seven miles of road, talking all the way, I don't feel that I have arrived. From a long distance, I saw Liu Lili standing at the gate of the animal husbandry station, and when she saw us coming up, she smiled at me and didn't speak, and followed Aunt Hu into the house.

The fat man sat in the room in a daze, and when he saw my face, he hurriedly stood up and said hello. He wasn't fat at all now, but he looked a little thin. It's been more than two months, Aunt Hu Sheben has made up for him, medicine and food together, and soon the person will return to Yang. It's a good thing that I'm not as fat as before, I look much more handsome than before, but my face is pale and a little haggard.

I took a look, and saw that his eyes were covered with another layer of haze, and there was a faint cold on his body. I asked him, "How many days have you been, what are the symptoms?" ”

The fat man replied, "It's been three days, and the symptoms are the same as the last time, and even the dreams are the same." ”

"Have you been anywhere else?"

"No, absolutely not. I obey your old man's instructions, and I never go out at night except to commute to work. I've never been out of the house to pee! ”

The fat man confessed eagerly a little unscrupulously, and even the title of "old man" was involved. I glanced at Liu Lili, who was blushing and bowing her head and pursing her lips, and hurriedly interrupted him:

"It's me who underestimated that demon fox, this thing is a bit troublesome, it looks like if you don't get rid of it, it will come out and hurt people. However, the county is too far away from us, and there is no good way for a while, so we can only temporarily suppress the pressure first. If you want to completely cure it, I'm afraid you have to go to the place where you first became ill and find the demon fox to get rid of it. ”

"Then let's go tomorrow, the sooner the better, I can't stand it anymore."

"I'm afraid not tomorrow. I need to go home and say hello to my mother. So be it, three days, three days later, I got the notice, and the school was closed. I'll go with you to the county, try to find the demon fox, and get rid of the trouble forever. Do you think this will work? ”

"Okay! Then I will wait for you at home for three days, and after three days, we will go to Yangdong together to catch this goblin who harmed me with a thousand knives, otherwise it will be difficult to solve the hatred in my heart. ”

I nodded, and it was settled.

In the current situation, I can only draw a few talismans for him to keep him safe for the time being. It was close to noon, and after lunch at their house, I immediately took my leave and returned to school in the middle of the fireball-like sun.

The final exams were over, and the campus was quietly empty—not quietly, the lazy insects in the willows were singing happily to each other, but there was no sound of the students reading aloud in the past.

After entering the school gate, I turned into the corridor and went straight to the residence in the back garden, hastily packed up my things, tied the futon to the bicycle shelf, put on my schoolbag, and pushed my bicycle out of the school gate.
