The mountain wind came violently, and the rain fell suddenly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's raining.
The torrential rain that followed the Great War came so quickly that it washed away the mountains and washed away the blood stained by the dead leaves and branches. However, the blood is thicker than the water, and the heavier the rain, the faster the blood gathers and flows in small streams.
"Brother, catch it. ”
The little fox had a thief's eyes, and saw that the goods box carried by the merchant showed a little color, and when he opened it, he saw that the box contained dozens of pieces of silk and umbrellas.
She took out two umbrellas and threw them to Jiang Ling.
Jiang Lingzheng couldn't help the sudden mountain rain next to him, the deserted little lonely mountain was empty and lonely, and there seemed to be few people in the distance, let alone the shadow of the town.
The rain soaked the mountain road, and the thin horses screamed wildly.
A cartload of lone wolf feces was hit by the torrential rain, spilling all over the ground, black, sticky and sticky into the rainwater, and according to the appearance, it could no longer be used to ignite the fire and drive away the bloody corpses.
Jiang Ling handed over the umbrella in his hand, opened it for the old man, and greeted: "Uncle, are you okay?"
The old man looked frightened, his expression was panicked, his eyes were wooden, he was really frightened, and he chattered in his mouth: "Lonely mountain wolf, there are many lonely mountain wolves, and there is a silver fox, a terrifying silver fox." ”
The little fox held a flower umbrella, smiling like a flower, looked at the frightened old man, smiled mischievously, and said, "Brother, this time the little fox has done it meticulously." When he attacked again, he charmed the old man with his winks beforehand, making his eyes dizzy and unaware of what had just happened. ”
She picked up the frightened old man who was sitting on the ground, flashed a pair of watery eyes and looked directly into the old man's eyes, and lifted the secret technique of 'seizing souls'.
"Alright! ”
The old man woke up from his frightened consciousness, and immediately felt that the mountain rain was hitting his body, cold and cold. He looked inexplicably at the corpses of hundreds of soldiers and bandits lying on the ground, pointed to the ground where blood was gathering in surprise, and asked, "They... Did you kill them all?"
Jiang Ling put away the Bloodthirsty Nether Sword, and by the way, he inserted the Hell Ghost Axe he picked up into his waist, nodded, and killed a group of soldiers and bandits by default.
Half an hour is enough to ease your senses.
The old man boasted with joy on his face: "The young man's cultivation is quite high, destroy the lone wolf soldiers and bandits, Xiaogushan Town is saved, and the villagers are saved." ”
Jiang Ling smiled modestly and asked, "How far is it from Xiaogushan Town?"
"Less than a mile, turn the hill ahead. The old man skillfully pointed to the mountain that diffused the rain, and he had the charm of making friends with a master.
Jiang Ling followed the direction of the old man's finger, took a closer look, and could vaguely see that there were people in the mountains and forests, and pondered: "No wonder I can't find Xiaogushan Town, hidden in a hidden mountain, it really needs to be familiar." The path I walked was unfamiliar with life, and if I hadn't met an old man, I was afraid that I would have to spend a night in the woods. ”
Jiang Ling was slightly embarrassed and pointed to the car full of lonely wolf feces that was washed away by the rain, and said apologetically: "It's all because the two of us are nosy and missed the uncle's trip." A cart of wolf dung, it's a pity..."
It is a blessing in misfortune that the old man can survive, where do you care about a cart of wolf dung, the lonely mountain wolf dung can be picked up again if it is gone, and the life is really gone.
"Don't worry, if you look back and be busy for a while, you can almost recover the loss. ”
said that it didn't matter, but the old man still felt strange in his heart, and the dung of the lonely wolf that he finally spent half a month collecting was all washed away by the rain, and he secretly thought that he was unlucky.
Jiang Ling always felt a little apologetic, and motioned to the little fox to open the other boxes left by the merchants, expecting to find something valuable to make up for the old man's loss.
The little fox understood, bared a pair of fangs, and picked up his little hand.
Don't underestimate the strength of the little fox, although it looks like a thirteen-year-old girl, but, don't forget, the little fox is the fox demon of the nine-tailed fox clan in the Hundred Beast Demon Domain, and the powerful bloodline of the demon clan gives the little fox an ability that is beyond the ordinary fierce beasts.
With just two fingers, the little fox easily broke the iron lock on the periphery of the box left by seven or eight merchants, and when he opened it, he saw that the box contained nothing more than some iron ore, raw materials for refining pills, animal skins and clothing, and other goods.
"Brother, it's all ordinary goods, nothing special. ”
The special thing that the little fox refers to is money, and since following Jiang Ling to the end of the world, the little fox has quickly become familiar with the living habits of human beings and has learned a lot of things.
"Look again, there should be, a caravan of more than a hundred people, it is impossible not to bring gold coins and other money, it is estimated that which soldier and bandit have robbed it?"
Jiang Ling unwillingly motioned to the little fox to look for it carefully.
Sure enough, the little fox's sense of smell is indeed powerful. She sniffed with her nose, leaned over to the corpse of the lone wolf, kicked the headless lone wolf away, found an iron box under it, and said in surprise: "Brother, the leader of the soldiers and bandits is holding an iron box, which looks quite heavy, and there are aura fluctuations. ”
"Aura fluctuations? It's impossible! The gold coins don't have aura fluctuations, could it be that there are other things hidden in the iron box?" Jiang Ling's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he leaned over and took the iron box.
"Smack!"
A palm shattered the lock of the iron box, opened it and saw that a burst of blood light shot out, fortunately, Jiang Ling was prepared in advance, and threw the iron box on the ground without looking at it, avoiding the blood light.
"What a strong evil spirit, a fierce thing. Jiang Ling pulled out the Bloodthirsty Nether Sword and cautiously opened the iron box, only to see a blood-glowing skeleton token appear in front of him.
The little fox leaned over and said, "The aura fluctuation is from this skull token. ”
Jiang Ling supported the old man, pointed to the skull token, and asked, "Uncle, do you know this fierce thing?"
The old man finally recovered from his frightened expression, and when he saw the skull token again, his face suddenly turned pale, and he was so frightened that he retreated a few steps, and said in a trembling voice: "Skull token, murderous bloody corpse." This... This is the token to control the killing of blood corpses in the middle of the night. ”
"The leader of the Little Gushan Soldiers and Bandits has a skull token and robs and kills merchants, what does this have to do with the bloody corpse murder in Xiaogushan Town?" Jiang Ling faintly felt in his heart that these things were not so simple, and there must be a bigger conspiracy behind them.
He used the aura to dispel the evil qi contaminated by the skull token, and put it in his pocket, thinking: "Fifty or sixty soldiers and bandits are enough to rob and kill a merchant team of a hundred people." The lone wolf dispatched three or four times as many soldiers and bandits to rob and kill, and killed not one of them, which was unreasonable. ”
Jiang Ling dug up the corpse of a merchant with doubts, examined it carefully, and found that the corpse had been branded with a skeleton token on its forehead, and said in surprise: "The corpse was used by the soldiers and bandits to cast an evil spell. ”
The old man woke up a little now, and said in surprise: "This... This is the bloody corpse that often hunts and kills the villagers of Xiaogushan Town in the middle of the night. I recognize the mark on the forehead of the bloody corpse, just like this corpse. ”
"Damn soldiers and bandits, use evil magic to create bloody corpses and scourge the villagers. The old man remembered the villagers of Xiaogushan Town who died in vain, kicked the corpses on the ground, and scolded fiercely.
The fox dug up the other corpses, found that each corpse had the mark left by the skull token, and it was all on the forehead, and said: "Every corpse has it, a hundred or so bloody corpses, so terrifying." ”
Jiang Ling didn't know what was going on, so he couldn't make quick ways to deal with it and deal with it, he pointed to the corpse and asked, "Uncle, is there a way to suppress the evil arts?"
The old man suddenly remembered, ran to the carriage that piled up the dung of the lone mountain wolf, picked up a shovel and shoveled a little wolf dung and sprinkled it on the skull mark on the forehead of the corpse, and said: "The old way, use the lone mountain wolf dung to resist." ”
The lone mountain wolf dung fell on the forehead of the corpse, and it was strange to say, and a trace of cyan flame ignited, which burned the mark.
"Huh, it works. ”
Jiang Ling followed the example of the old man and shoveled the dung of the lone mountain wolf and disposed of every corpse with the skull mark, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and sighed: "Fortunately, I found out that there was something wrong with these corpses in time, otherwise, in the middle of the night, the corpses would have been in trouble." ”
After disposing of the body, it was getting dark.
Jiang Ling led the merchant's horses, tied seven or eight boxes of goods, tied them to the reins of the horses, and walked to the distant hills. He took a sip of the liquor and said with a smile: "Uncle, this batch of goods is enough to make up for your car of lonely mountain wolf dung!"
The old man pressed the goods, closed his mouth happily, and said with a smile: "Enough, enough, these things are worth 10,000 gold, and I can't spend them all in my life." ”
"That's good, the reins are for you, these are yours. Jiang Ling stuffed the horse's reins into the old man's hand, smiled lightly, took some alchemy herbs, and then gave all the property he had obtained to the old man.
The old man couldn't wait to take the reins and thanked: "Good man, you are a good man." ”
The old man drove the car in front to lead the way, and Jiang Ling took the little fox's hand and followed behind with a smile and a smile.
"Little fox, how did you do that? It's amazing that a bunch of lone mountain wolves are listening to you. Jiang Ling was still recalling the thrilling scene just now, if it weren't for the little fox rushing out with a group of fierce lone mountain wolves at the critical moment, it would not be the bandits who fell to the ground but him.
The little fox smiled shyly, lowered his head, and whispered, "I'm a nine-tailed fox!" ”
Jiang Ling sighed and said softly: "The invisible deterrence brought by the bloodline of the powerful nine-tailed fox demon beast, this little girl has become more and more terrifying after growing up, maybe when the day comes to send her back to the Hundred Beast Demon Domain, she will become the next terrifying Nine-Tailed Fox King and dominate the entire Hundred Beast Demon Domain." ”
Jiang Ling gave a thumbs up and praised: "The little fox is powerful, and Bing Xue is smart." However, in the future, it is better not to easily expose the identity of the nine-tailed fox. ”
The little fox nodded, smiling like a flower.
Immediately, she said with doubts on her face: "Brother, I heard those lonely mountain wolves talk about something just now, which seems to be related to the bloody corpse murder incident in Little Lonely Mountain Town. ”
"What incident?" Jiang Ling still understood that the little fox could understand the words of the lone mountain wolf.
The little fox sighed, "Those Lone Mountain Wolves begged me to save the Lone Mountain Wolf King, and they said that the Lone Mountain Wolf King was captured by the evil spirit master. ”
"What did the evil spirit master do when he caught the Lonely Mountain Wolf King?"
"This little fox doesn't know, and the lone mountain wolf pack doesn't say anything. ”
Hurry and walk in the rain. The rain stopped, but the moisture did not disperse.
The old man waved his whip, pointed to the thatched house in front of him, and said, "Xiaogushan Town has arrived, let's settle here tonight!"
