Chapter 45: The Fox Bride
However, these were all speculated by Jin Wantang himself based on the current situation at that time.
Huo Xiuxiu suddenly sent the letter, Jin Wantang thought that Mrs. Huo was going to bring up the old things again, or suddenly remembered that she wanted to settle accounts with him about the things of the year, and she was almost scared half to death.
"Who do you think he will be?" Huo Xiuxiu looked at the little brother very meaningfully as she spoke, "Does this have any hints for you?"
Everyone understood what she meant, but no one said anything.
Zhang Qixun turned his gaze to the window, and found that after talking for a while, the sky outside had already darkened.
A bleak crescent moon hung in the sky, and the thin moonlight could only illuminate a small area around it, and it was particularly desolate to look at under the blessing of the atmosphere of the barren grass in the yard.
There was a very soft thud from the trees in the courtyard outside the house.
Zhang Qixun's eyebrows moved slightly, and the bull head said to the horse's mouth, "There seem to be a lot of mosquitoes outside."
"Huh? yes." Huo Xiuxiu also felt a little strange, glanced out the window, and found that the sun had set, "Strange, usually mosquitoes have come out in groups to forage at this time, but today, for some reason, there is not a single mosquito in this house."
The fat man squeezed his eyes with the back of his hand behind him and gave Zhang Qixun a thumbs up to the little brother.
Huo Xiuxiu glanced at the time on her watch, stood up and slung the bag cross-body over her shoulder, "It's not early, I should go back too, otherwise I will definitely show my stuff when my grandmother asks."
"Wait, I'll send you." Wu Xiaoxie took out a flashlight from the bags that Huo guys had brought, lit it and raised it towards the door.
"I didn't expect you to be quite a gentleman." Huo Xiuxiu bent the corners of her eyes and raised her feet and walked towards the door.
As soon as she opened the door, her face changed suddenly, and she immediately closed the door with her backhand, "Oh no, my grandma is here."
Immediately afterwards, I heard the courtyard door creak open, and the white light of several flashlights flickered in through the window.
"What to do? I can't let my grandmother find out I'm investigating her." Huo Xiuxiu said anxiously.
The fat man jumped up, looked left and right, and suddenly pointed to it, "Hide on the beam of the upper room."
Huo Xiuxiu looked up and said in surprise, "There is a skylight on the roof, I can go out from there."
As he spoke, he stepped on the stool he had just sat on, Wu Xiaoxie and the fat man only felt a flower in front of them, and they saw that Huo Xiuxiu was already hanging on the beams of the house.
Then, like a civet cat, the body twisted a few times strangely, and the waist seemed to be twisted three hundred and sixty degrees, and suddenly rushed to the skylight, stepped on the wooden beam and waved at the four people below, and then pushed open the skylight and drilled out.
The fat man looked at her series of flexible movements, his jaw dropped in shock, and a sentence came out of his mouth, "I'm a good girl, you say, does that old woman Huo also have such a hand."
Wu Xiaoxi's brain made up for that picture, and immediately shuddered, it was too scary, if the old lady's silver hair spread out and hung down from the roof, it would really be more forbidden than a forbidden woman.
After a while, there was a series of footsteps at the top of the staircase, and then the door was pushed open.
The flashlight in Wu Xiaoxie's hand hit the face of the first person who came in, and then he was stunned.
The fat man was also stunned, the two glanced at each other, and invariably took several big steps back.
"Huo Xiuxiu?" Zhang Qixun got up from his chair and stared at her meaninglessly.
The little brother also sat up straight and looked at her with a frown.
Huo Xiuxiu commanded people to put things on the ground, and looked at them with a smile, "Why do you all have such an expression? You don't know me for a while?"
Wu Xiaoxie's faces turned pale all of a sudden, how could this voice be exactly the same?
The fat man couldn't help but look up at the skylight above his head, Huo Xiuxiu didn't close the window tightly after he got out, and it was still wide open at this time.
"Zhente's lame ass is wicked." The fat man smacked his tongue, "It's not good."
As soon as the words fell, a black shadow flashed in front of him,
The little brother had already climbed from the chair to the beam of the room and went out through the skylight.
Zhang Qixun and the three of them all looked up at it.
"What's wrong?" Huo Xiuxiu also subconsciously raised her head and took a step forward, "There are mice?"
As soon as she moved, Zhang Qixun also moved, blocking between her and the brocade box on the table.
The sound of the little brother walking around came from the roof, and soon he rolled down from it, shaking his head, "The man is gone."
The fat man's hairs exploded at once, and he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, "Damn, what's going on? Did God rewind?"
The four of them all stared at Huo Xiuxiu and his party vigilantly.
Huo Xiuxiu was a little unhappy, "This girl is kind enough to send you something, it doesn't matter if you don't appreciate it, it's too much to look at me with such an enemy's eyes."
Wu Xiaoxie had already realized that something was wrong, and there were only three possibilities for the current situation.
Either Huo Xiuxiu, who left before, is real, and the one in front of her is fake, or the one before is fake, and the one in front of her is real, or perhaps, these two are impostors, sent by Mrs. Huo or other forces to spy on intelligence.
Now, most likely, the worst has already happened.
He thought for a moment, and suddenly said tentatively, "Haven't you already been here?"
Huo Xiuxiu looked dazed, "When? I don't know, I bought all these things with my own eyes, where can I have time to play hide and seek with you, what the hell is going on with you?"
The fat man was a little angry, "What's going on, you ask? The fat lady still wants to ask you, if you are Huo Xiuxiu, is it that the fox spirit who just fell out of the window can't be transformed?"
Huo Xiuxiu was also angry, and threw the small bag she was carrying on the table, so that she had to reason with the fat man.
The little brother suddenly said, "It's not her."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to touch Huo Xiuxiu's back, and said softly: "The temperature has not changed, it is impossible to quickly turn from the roof to the ground, it is impossible not to use any strength, and the breath will not be so stable."
Huo Xiuxiu saw that their expressions didn't seem to be fake, and hurriedly asked what was going on.
Wu Xiaoxie told her what had just happened.
Huo Xiuxiu was also surprised when she heard this, "How is this possible? Why is she pretending to be me?"
As he spoke, he immediately called his grandmother to prove his innocence.
Wu Xiaoxie looked at her with a calm expression, either her acting skills were superb, or all this was a natural reaction, and the real Huo Xiuxiu was in front of her.
Who would be that person before that? knows Huo Xiuxiu's words and deeds so well, he must be someone who can often come into contact with her.
After thinking about it, he asked, "How many people in your Huo family still know about the news that we are here?"
Huo Xiuxiu's face changed, "You don't suspect that someone has betrayed the Huo family around my grandmother."
The fat man yelled, "Either someone is making trouble in the dark, or that guy is a vixen."
As he spoke, he told a story that I heard from nowhere, a vixen pretending to be a bride and being scared away by the gunfire of the police.
Huo Xiangu listened to their discussion on the other end of the phone, and suddenly asked Huo Xiuxiu to turn on the speakerphone of the phone.
"When you came out of the Crescent Hotel, did you take anything other than the box containing the ghost seal?" Huo Xiangu asked.
The fat man scratched his head, "It's gone, I didn't pretend to be those white cockscomb tea dregs, my brothers have 600 million six, who still has that little bit of saliva scum."
"Take the box with the ghost seal to Xiuxiu, she's familiar with the things in the Crescent Hotel, and ask her to check it out for you." Huo Xiangu said directly.
Zhang Qixun had already picked up the brocade box on the table.
Huo Xiuxiu hung up the phone, and when she saw this, she reached out to take it.
As a result, Zhang Qixun's hand holding the brocade box was deflected, and he just missed her.
Huo Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment, and then saw Zhang Qixun use his other hand to pull out a flat black disc the size of a bottle cap from under the brocade box.
"Is that it?" Zhang Qixun looked at her with a smile.
Huo Xiuxiu
Immediately reacted, he had been exposed, his face instantly turned cold, and he shouted, "Rob!"
It's unbelievable that the voice of such a pretty girl is actually a man's voice!
In the next moment, "Huo Xiuxiu" and the three guys beside him pounced like a string of arrows, and the target went straight to the brocade box in Zhang Qixun's hand.
originally thought that Zhang Qixun would quickly retreat and dodge with the brocade box, but the three guys cooperated tacitly and had already blocked Zhang Qixun's escape route in advance.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Qixun didn't play cards according to common sense at all, and at the moment when "Huo Xiuxiu" reached out and grabbed it, he directly threw the brocade box into his arms.
"Huo Xiuxiu" was shocked, she didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly went to pick up the brocade box, but in the next second, a sound of breaking the air came from her ears.
He subconsciously hugged the brocade box and rolled sideways to dodge, and immediately entered the bag of Zhang Qixun and the little brother.
Zhang Qixun raised his leg and swept over, "Huo Xiuxiu" wanted to protect the brocade box in his arms, and hurriedly raised his arm to block, but he miscalculated the strength of this kick, and was directly kicked out by this kick, which happened to hit a guy who trapped Wu Xiaoxie, and the two fell together.
The fat man roared angrily, picked up a bench and smashed it over with his head and face.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the two hurriedly went to hide, and "Huo Xiuxiu" picked up another bench on her toes and collided with the stool in the fat man's hand.
The fat man was so full that the skeletons of both stools fell apart.
"Innocence continues!" The fat man picked up the bench leg on the ground and threw it at Wu Xiaoxie.
The other guy behind Wu Xiaoxie used himself as a restraint to tightly tie Wu Xiaoxie, making him unable to move for a while.
In a hurry, Wu Xiaoxie lifted one leg and stomped his heel, the guy screamed loudly, his arm was unintentionally released, Wu Xiaoxie pouted and arched back, and he was reckless.
The guy didn't care about the pain in his foot, and hurriedly reached out to pull him, and at this time, the bench leg that the fat man threw out was also in place.
However, the accuracy of the black light was a little worse, Wu Xiaoxie felt that something flew over his fingertips, and then he heard the guy behind him scream again, and then fell to the ground with a plop, covering his forehead and falling to the ground.
Wu Xiaoxie saw that the situation was good, and immediately caught up and made up for two more kicks.
The screams around him came and went, and Zhang Qixun simply took off the last guy's two arms, grabbed his coat and wrapped his head, kicked him aside, and piled him up on the first guy.
The fat man, a reckless man, jumped up and sat on the stomach of the second guy, waving a fist the size of a casserole, and slammed it into the face.
The guy who was pressed under him had to feel the pain of Tarzan's crushing top, and at the same time, he had to protect his face and be beaten, almost foaming at the mouth and out of breath.
On the other side, the little brother and "Huo Xiuxiu" have already gone through several moves, "Huo Xiuxiu" is holding a brocade box in one hand, and a quaint dagger slides out of the cuff in the other hand, his eyes are fierce, and he goes straight to the little brother's life.
Wu Xiaoxie saw that this was not good, looked left and right and found that there was a bench leg at his feet, and immediately copied it and threw it at the crook of the leg of "Huo Xiuxiu".
And then, "Oops, it didn't hit!" Wu Xiaoxie patted his forehead in annoyance.
The steps of "Huo Xiuxiu" are very strange, as if floating on a rope, but they are unexpectedly steady.
Wu Xiaoxie is not a practitioner, so naturally he can't find a flaw in his steps.
Seeing this, Zhang Qixun stepped on one foot on the two stacks of eight men to restrict their movements, and when he saw this, he flipped his wrist and an iron bullet flew out, hitting the crook of "Huo Xiuxiu" in the knee.
"Huo Xiuxiu" staggered, knocked one knee on the ground, slowed down for two seconds, and then quickly stood up as if nothing happened.
But the little brother is no longer in his original position at the moment.
Just when "Huo Xiuxiu" was puzzled, a black shadow fell from the sky, and lightning generally pressed down from mid-air, directly knocking "Huo Xiuxiu" out and falling on the door.
The broken wooden door, which was already in disrepair and not strong, was immediately broken when he hit it
A big hole was opened, and "Huo Xiuxiu" slipped out of the hole with half of her body.
The two guys at Zhang Qixun's feet struggled to get up, and the fat man finished cleaning up the one under his hand, and then walked over and slapped a bench leg on their heads.
The fat man was carrying two stool legs, as if he was carrying the black whirlwind Li Kui with the three-plate axe, his fierce look was vicious, and all the blood and qi poured into his face, and he wanted to greet "Huo Xiuxiu" with his steps.
Zhang Qixun hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "Don't beat the fat man, put down the stick, the people watching the show are about to appear."
The fat man came back to his senses and saw that Zhang Qixun and the little brother were both relaxed, so he lost the stick.
The "Huo Xiuxiu" inserted in the doorway didn't know if it was painful or what, her face was distorted, and she slowly got up from the ground.
Looking at Zhang Qixun and a few people, he suddenly laughed, the skin was cut by wooden thorns, and this smile saw that the skin and flesh were rolled out, but there was no blood flowing out.
Seeing Wu Xiaoxie's eyelids jumping, he pointed to his face and said, "What, don't laugh yet, your face is cracked."
Hearing this, Huo Xiuxiu touched his face, then put his hand behind his ear and directly tore off a mask.
"It's you!" Wu Xiaoxie recognized him immediately.
This "fox bride" is the same pink shirt they had seen at the Crescent Hotel before.
Xie Yuchen looked like he was smiling happily after being beaten, and then the joints of his whole body made a calamity, and the whole person stretched out, and he was much taller.
