Chapter 59: Questioning the Tanuki

Ji Liuhuo had secretly refreshed himself during the questioning, and had already confirmed that Nan Ying had indeed left, but out of precaution, he still took action to put a layer of isolation cover in the house.

This hood not only won't be detected by Nan Hotaru, but it also prevents eavesdropping, and even notifies him immediately if someone approaches.

It was precisely with this layer of isolation cover that after Nan Ying left, Ji Liuhuo and Ling Sushuang didn't bother to disguise anymore, and directly restored their original attitude in the face of Tanuki.

This idea was also thought of by Beizang under the reminder of Beizang, although the three of them had seen Nan Hota's demise with their own eyes, but if Zi Yu and Nan Hotaru had nothing to do with each other, they would never believe it.

Eight points of similar appearance and personality, as well as a close relationship with Tanuki, plus Beizang is also very sure that he has felt the breath of Vermilion Bird's spiritual power in Ziyu.

They don't easily doubt, but once they do, then this doubt will never be dispelled in a few words.

Since he couldn't find a breakthrough from Ziyu, he had to start with Tanuki first.

After all, they have a way to get the raccoon to speak.

The moment Ji Liuhuo asked, Tanuki suddenly understood the reason why Ji Liuhuo and Ling Sushuang were looking for him.

He said so many high-sounding words to Nan Hotaru, but in fact, he just used Nan Hotaru's trust in the two of them to find out Nan Hotaru's identity from him.

Tanuki glanced at the door that Nan Hotaru had closed before leaving, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Fortunately, after returning from Mingze Palace, he had already thought of a way to deal with it, and he had also found a reason to bluff others.

Although that reason may sound unreasonable, it is also the most plausible reason at the moment.

Because he had already found a good explanation, even though Tanuki was now facing the pressure released by Ji Liuhuo and Ling Sushuang at the same time, his face had not changed at all, and he still maintained his previous carelessness: "I have a bad memory, I don't remember what I lied." ”

Tanuki leaned on the table, the corners of his eyes slightly raised to look at Ji Liuhuo, and a pair of fox eyes were shining: "If the two god monarchs have something to do with me, they will say; If you just want to use me as a pastime......" Tanuki suddenly smiled in a low voice, but there was no trace of emotion in his smile, "Although the identity of the Demon King of Ten Thousand Demon Mountain is low, it is not something that anyone can bully. ”

"You ......"

Ling Sushuang's temper became more and more strange after Nan Ying's death, and she already hated Tanuki in her heart, so as soon as Tanuki's words came out, she felt angry, and she was about to draw her sword with a wave of her hand.

Seeing this, Ji Liuhuo hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold down Ling Sushuang, glanced at the raccoon dog mockingly, and sneered: "If the two of us kill you here today, do you really think that the Heavenly Realm will blame me and Sushuang for this?" ”

Tanuki grinned: "When I went to the Heavenly Realm to report on my work a few days ago, it happened that several elders of the Red Feather Fox Clan were also there, so I mentioned the fact that the poison in my body had been resolved. I'm afraid that the Qinglong Divine Monarch doesn't know that the real reason why the elders of the clan let the master take me away so easily was that I was highly poisoned, and the Red Feather Fox Clan didn't need a king who could die at any time. ”

"Although the gods despise the gods by the divine beast's willingness to degenerate into demons, it is undeniable that the Red Feather Fox Clan, who has been suppressed by the White Feather Cat Clan, and the Heavenly Emperor, who is eager to reverse the imbalance between the two, need me very much."

Having said that, he had already told Ji Liuhuo and Ling Sushuang very clearly that they were completely unable to make a move against Tanuki now.

Ling Sushuang glared at the raccoon dog hatefully, and turned her head away from looking at him.

Ji Liuhuo was also very angry in his heart, and his eyes became colder and colder.

If what Tanuki said was true, then he really couldn't do anything to Tanuki anymore.

After all, although the status of the Red Feather Fox Clan is inferior to him, it is the ethnic group valued by the Heavenly Emperor, and it is also one of the most important ethnic groups of the Heavenly Emperor.

And if the Emperor of Heaven really intends to let Tanzhi be the King of the Red Feather Fox, it means that the Emperor intends to cultivate him as a cronie around him. It also depends on the owner to beat the dog, and Ji Liuhuo naturally understands this truth.

But now is not the time to be distracted by these things. Ji Liuhuo took a long breath and finally calmed himself down: "I do have something unclear, and I hope that the Demon King will solve my doubts." ”

The smile on the face of the raccoon dog became brighter: "It's easy to say, God Monarch, please ask." ”

"I wonder if the Demon King can tell us the origin of Ziyu's background?" Ji Liuhuo tried his best to make his voice sound calmer, but in fact, his slightly trembling hand hidden in his sleeve revealed his restlessness at this time.

"Isn't the Divine Monarch confused, who in the two worlds of immortals and demons doesn't know the identity of my little Yu'er?" Tanuki said and was about to get up, "If the Divine Monarch can't remember, just go back to the Heavenly Realm and find someone to ask at random." ”

"Do you think I'll believe that?" Ji Liuhuo stood in place and stretched out a hand to stop the raccoon dog's momentum, "I asked, it's her true identity." ”

Tanuki was pressed back to the stool by Ji Liuhuo, and secretly screamed in his heart. I don't know why his spiritual power has been suppressed at this time, and he can't even use half a point.

Ji Liuhuo seemed to see Tanuki's question: "Don't you want to struggle, this isolation cover is something I have spent thousands of years researching, and in this cover, if your cultivation is lower than mine, your spiritual power will be suppressed." ”

"Believe it or not, that's the way it is." Tanuki's face did not change at all, and he reached out and brushed away Ji Liuhuo's hand on his shoulder, "Xiao Yu'er is the flower demon that I raised with Nansu, no matter how much you ask, this is the answer." ”

"It's just a hosta flower, where is it worth so much thought by you and Nansu?"

Ling Sushuang hadn't looked at Tanuki at this time, but the sword in his hand had been directly unsheathed and stabbed directly at Tanuki's shoulder.

Although Tanuki Zhi had always been on guard, because the spiritual power in his body was suppressed, he did not dodge Ling Sushuang's sword with spiritual power.

The tip of the sword was immediately pulled out after sinking into the left shoulder of the raccoon, and Ling Sushuang didn't blink his eyes when he did this, but said coldly: "I can't kill you, but that doesn't mean I can't hurt you." As long as I don't kill you, no matter how much the Emperor blames me, he won't cut me off. ”

Ji Liuhuo didn't expect Ling Sushuang to be like this, but when he wanted to stop him, it was too late, so he had to let Ling Sushuang pull out his sword and sneer.

Because the sword irrigated the spiritual power, although it pierced into the shoulder of the tanuki, it did not pierce its clothes.

A large amount of blood poured out of the wound on Tanukiyuki's shoulder, wetting his clothes.

Seeing this, Ji Liuhuo immediately used spiritual power to stop the bleeding for the raccoon dog, and then dispersed the smell of blood in the house by the way, but he didn't say anything, just stared coldly at the raccoon dog with Ling Sushuang.

It was the raccoon dog that got up first, but this time Ji Liuhuo didn't stop it again.

Tanuki stood up, his lips slightly pale from blood loss, but his face remained unwavering, and he took a step to walk towards the outside of the house.

As soon as he lifted his feet, the civet seemed to suddenly remember something, and suddenly put his feet in place again: "I only said once, the only relationship between Xiao Yu'er and the master is the flower seed that gave birth to Xiao Yu'er's body, which was given to me by the master at the beginning." ”

After saying that, Tanuki Zhi strode towards the outside of the house, Ling Sushuang saw this and wanted to stop it, but was blocked by Ji Liuhuo, so he had to let Tanuki leave stupidly.

"What do you think he said, and how credible is it?" Ling Sushuang stood beside Ji Liuhuo and looked at the door and asked.

Ji Liuhuo lowered his head and pondered for a moment before he said, "Eighty percent is credible." ”

Ling Sushuang nodded: "If that flower seed is really sent by Ah Ying, I can understand why Tanuki Zhi and Nansu are so interested in Ziyu when they just sprouted." ”

Ji Liuhuo was silent for a long time, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what was wrong. In the end, he had to sigh and say to Ling Sushuang beside him: "Go clean up, and wait for Ziyu and one of the raccoon dogs to get up for lunch, and then we will continue on our way." ”

Ling Sushuang knew that Ji Liuhuo still had doubts about Tanuki's words in his heart, and wanted to see the performance of the two of them on the road before making a decision, so although he was a little unhappy about going with Tanuki, he still endured it in the end.

On the other hand, after Tanuki left, he didn't rush to find Nan Hotaru, but first found a place to treat his wounds.

Although Ling Sushuang's sword was not very deep, it carried a bit of spiritual power. And his spiritual power was exhausted at that time, and his body was like a mortal fetus, so the damage to his body from this sword was very great.

Later, Ji Liuhuo treated his wounds, but he only forcibly healed his wounds through techniques so that he would no longer bleed.

The tanuki pinched the spell and cast a spell on the wound. If he didn't quickly repair the damage in this wound and dispose of the remaining white tiger spiritual power in the wound, I am afraid that his hand would be useless.

It took a while for the raccoon to stop, and he carefully turned his arm around to make sure that the injury was no longer serious. At this time, his face was a little pale, and a little cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but fortunately, his hand was saved.

Tanuki wiped the sweat from his forehead, closed his eyes and began to work.

Soon Tanuki felt that his physical strength had recovered, and his complexion looked much better. Tanuki looked at the blood-soaked clothes at the wound, frowned and thought about it, and finally just got some tea on it.

After doing this, Tanuki put his mind at ease, and made sure that he had taken a good look at himself again, and when he was sure that there were no flaws, he followed the place where Nan Hotaru was.

Since Nan Hotaru came out of the house, she climbed the highest hillside nearby by herself with her spiritual power, and lay on the grass on the hillside quietly looking at the sky.

I don't know how long it took, but Tanuki suddenly appeared beside her.

As soon as Nan Hotaru saw Tanuki coming, she hurriedly sat up from the ground, looked at Tanuki expectantly and asked, "How is Tanuki, have you reconciled?" ”
