Chapter 686: Fox God Sacrifice (II)

"Speaking of which, it's been seven or eight days since this happened, and I don't know if that girl can survive alone......"

The village chief sighed secretly, if he had known, he should have left the girl behind.

"What? Seven or eight days? ”

Kong Zhe was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Are you sure it's seven or eight days?" Didn't it happen in the past two days? ”

"This, this...... It's really seven or eight days, and I shouldn't be mistaken about that. ”

The village chief scratched his head and replied.

"What's going on? The time is not right......"

Kong Zhe suddenly frowned and pondered, but they only saw Xiao Lei this morning, even if the time flow rate in the inner world is different, at most it is only a difference of one or two days, how can it be impossible to pull away for seven or eight days.

"Your Highness, it seems that when we saw Xiao Lei at that time, it should have happened after she left Cat Village......

The dragon said.

"Hmmm......"

Kong Zhe nodded, there is indeed only this one possibility.

At this time, he suddenly realized a problem: according to Little Fox, Fox Village and Cat Village should be adjacent villages, so if Xiao Lei escaped to that wasteland after leaving Cat Village, it would be impossible for her to turn back to Fox Village after that, and she would probably choose to continue along the same path...... In this way, the three of them may have chosen the wrong direction at that time.

"Village Chief, do you have a map here?" Kong Zhe asked.

"Oh, yes, Elder, please wait a minute......"

The village chief hurried to a house by the side of the road that was lit with fire, and in a few moments he ran back again, already with a wide roll of sheepskin in his hand.

"Elder look, this is Loki's map......"

The map was actually very crudely made, and it was evident that it had been a long time, and the paint and text on it had been blurred in many places, and only a rough idea could be seen.

"This place is the ...... of Fox Village"

Kong Zhe held the map in his hand, and the village chief first pointed to one of the circles, and then pointed to a location next to the circle.

"Then, here's the cat village. The girl had left the east gate, and if she had followed the main road, she would have probably taken that direction on the map. ”

The village chief drew a long arc on the map, and Kong Zhe noticed that the arc passed through a desert terrain on the map, and the area was marked with a red name on the upper left: Xiangwu Wasteland.

This should be the place where I saw Xiaolei at that time......

Kong Zhe thought to himself.

"Seven or eight days have passed, based on the footsteps of a normal person, she should have just walked out of the Xiangwu Wasteland, but after that, it is difficult to say, there is no road near the wasteland, and it is easy to get lost if no one leads it."

Kong Zhe couldn't help frowning when he looked at this map, if he followed the route drawn by the village chief, the direction in which Xiao Lei left was exactly the opposite direction to them, that is to say, the distance between them and Xiao Lei not only did not shrink, but continued to expand.

It took them a day to come to Fox Village, and if they went back to the wasteland now, it would take at least three or four days to cross the wasteland, not to mention that Xiao Lei couldn't stand still during this time, and the difficulty of finding her was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"I'm sorry, Chief Gu, can you give me this map?"

Kong Zhedao.

"Oh...... Of course, this is just hand-painted by the villagers, not something precious, if the elders need it, just take it. ”

The village chief stroked his beard: "It's just that the elder is planning to go looking for that girl now?" ”

"Yes."

Kong Zhe nodded firmly. No matter how difficult it is, you have to find it. And the current situation makes Kong Zhe even more worried, with Xiaolei's character, what happened in Cat Village is likely to happen again in other places, and it is difficult to say whether there will be luck at that time, and it is best to find nature as soon as possible.

"Huh? You, you're leaving? ”

The little fox was stunned for a moment, he listened for a while before he understood, and hurriedly grabbed Kong Zhe's clothes: "But, but it's night now, alas, it's dangerous to travel in the wild at night!" And I haven't thanked you for saving my life......"

"It doesn't matter. It's not a big deal, no need to thank you or anything......"

Kong Zhe shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"Elder, what Ah Wu said makes sense, and, please forgive my old man for being blunt, even if you rush to this little girl's situation now, I'm afraid it won't be able to find it in a short time, tomorrow night is the annual fox god festival in the village, why don't you stay for one more day?"

The village chief suddenly spoke.

"Fox God Sacrifice?" Kong Zhe asked.

"Yes, the fox god is a god that has been passed down by Loki for thousands of years, also known as the god Inari, in addition to guarding this land, he also has the characteristics of a farming god. The Fox God Festival is a unique festival in our fox village. At that time, the village will put up lanterns, slaughter livestock to welcome the fox god, and pray for a good harvest in the coming year. In addition, on the day of the Kitsune Festival, everyone can make a wish to the fox god, and if they are chosen by the fox god, this wish can be granted. ”

The village chief explained.

"Yes, you can participate in the fox god festival, as long as you ask the fox god for help, she will definitely help you!"

The little fox couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Uh, this ......"

Kong Zhe couldn't help but touch his head. No matter how you look at this, it should be just a legend, and it ......

"After all, it's a local god, can outsiders like us participate?"

"Yes, yes. The fox god treats everyone equally, and does not discriminate against outsiders, as long as you sincerely ask for help, the fox god will definitely be able to see it! ”

The little fox swore by it.

"Yes...... Is that so? ”

Kong Zhegan smiled, he was born in the era of science, and he still instinctively didn't believe much in this kind of ghosts and gods. However, this place of Loki is strange, like the animal race here is unimaginable to humans before.

So after hesitating for a while, Kong Zhe nodded and agreed. First, he came to find Xiaolei really not in a hurry for this day, and secondly, he also wanted to see what the so-called gods in this world were.

……

"Alas, this is the little fox's home......"

Kong Zhe and the three of them looked at an ancient building in front of them and couldn't help but exclaim.

After deciding to stay for one more day, the problem of residence was placed in front of them, and the little fox excitedly proposed to take them back to his own house to live, Kong Zhe naturally had nothing to hesitate about, and then the three of them were led here by the little fox.

Kong Zhe thought that since the little fox had a withdrawn personality and had no friends, his family should be very poor, but he didn't expect the little fox's home to be unexpectedly very luxurious.

"Here it is...... Shrine? ”

The courtyard in front of you covers an area of more than 1,000 square meters, and you can vaguely see some candlesticks and fragments of stone statues in the courtyard, and there is a faint smell of incense and candles wafting in the air. In general, it looks like a temple, but it must have been abandoned, and the original temple layout was converted into a vegetable garden.

It's just that in the middle of the entire courtyard, there is a huge statue of a god, it is a woman of the fox clan, wearing a jade crown, wearing a colorful glow, holding a pair of round mirrors, and a rich fox fire is wrapped around her body. It seems to be a bit of a god.

"This is the former shrine of the village."

The village chief folded his hands and bowed respectfully to the idol, explaining: "Don't look at Ah Wu's appearance, his mother is the messenger of the fox god of the previous generation, so she naturally has the ownership of the shrine, but it's a pity that ......"

The village chief sighed as he spoke, shook his head and did not continue.

The three of them glanced at each other, did not ask any questions, and followed the village chief into the main building of the courtyard.

It was a small two-story building, the building was empty, there were few pieces of furniture in total, and there were a lot of miscellaneous items scattered on the floor.

"Ah Wu, you kid, your sister just cleaned up, it's only been a few days, and you've made such a mess at home again!"

When the village chief saw this, he immediately cursed.

"Ahh Hold on, wait a minute, I'll pack up ...... right away."

Ah Wu was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly picked up the things on the ground with his limbs together, trying to make the house look as tidy as possible.

"Don't worry, take your time......"

Kong Zhe smiled, so much debris is not something that can be cleaned up in a short period of time.

"I'm sorry to make the three of you laugh."

The village chief smiled awkwardly, then pointed to the second floor.

"The above rooms are all guest rooms, and the three adults can choose at will, but no one has lived in them for a long time, so they may have to clean up first......"

"Oh, it's okay, the village chief is busy first, let's just go and see it ourselves."

The village chief was still helping the little fox clean up the hall, Kong Zhe said casually, and went up to the second floor with Lily. The dragon stayed on the first floor to help carry some heavy loads.

The second floor here has obviously not been visited for a long time, and there is a noticeable layer of dust on the ground, and the wooden floor squeaks when stepped on, as if it is about to collapse at any moment.

Pushing open one of the doors, there was another burst of dust.

"Brother, it's so dirty here!"

Lily fanned the dust in front of her and exclaimed.

"It's a little dirty...... But the conditions are still good, and it's a good room to clean up. ”

This room is not small, Kong Zhe walked into the room, knocked on the walls and floor, judging from the sound returned, the walls here are solid, and a window on the south side faces the wind, and the night breeze blows, which is cool.

When there were many people before, Lily only dared to hide behind Kong Zhe most of the time, but at this moment, there were only two of them, and Lily was no longer restrained, and let Kong Zhe walk around the room by herself.

There are no modern furnishings in this house, whether it is the beds, windows and decoration of the house, they are relatively backward for modern people like them, the most obvious is the lighting equipment, relying on candles and lanterns, and the kitchen next to the house, with a stove with feet on the wind, pots and pans, etc. are also very simple utensils.

However, these things are still new to Lily, who has only lived on Earth for three months.

Lily looked at the room curiously, touching left and right. It's a pity that all the furniture is covered with a layer of dust, and Lily, who loves cleanliness, will soon be unable to get her hands on it.
