Chapter 7 Desolate Ancient Village

Tan Youruo and Arowana, who continued to move forward, finally saw a village. When Tan Youruo and Arowana walked into the village, they realized that the village was even more desolate than they had imagined. Rows of houses, some of which are dilapidated, are babbling in the wind; Although it is still the height of summer, the flowers and plants have withered, and the trees seem to be like rickety old men, shivering by the wind; Fallen leaves covered the streets, and the walls of the courtyards had not been repaired for a long time, cracking one after another, and some of them had even fallen due to the erosion of wind and rain.

The wind blowing Tan Youruo subconsciously felt that he had accidentally broken into the ghost village again.

"Arowana, are you sure this isn't a ghost village?" Tan Youruo looked at the dragon fish next to him who turned into a spirit pet in order not to arouse the suspicion of others and asked.

"It can't be, it's too bleak here, but I feel the breath of people."

"But, it's just sunset, why can't anyone see it?"

Before Tan Youruo could finish speaking, a wooden door was pushed open by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in the midst of a piercing babbling.

But when the young man saw Tan Youruo, he was taken aback, and then shouted in surprise: "Grandma, outsiders have finally come to our village!" ”

The young man's words scared Tan Youruo out of a cold sweat, what kind of village is it, outsiders dare not enter, is it a cannibal village? The more she thought about it, the more scared she became.

"Feng'er, don't tease grandma, no one in the village has dared to come in for decades, and they don't even dare to approach, how can anyone come in?"

"Really, grandma, don't believe you!"

Tan Youruo listened to the unbelievable conversation between the two ancestors and grandchildren, and she was about to collapse, because from their conversation, Tan Youruo knew that she was going to get into some trouble!

Just when Tan Youruo secretly regretted it, through the dilapidated wooden door, a white-haired old woman walked out. When she saw Tan Youruo, she also had a ghostly expression, and then patted the young man next to her, "Go and tell the village chief." ”

When the young man heard the words, he shouted as he ran, "Village chief, come out quickly, there are outsiders in our village, ....... village chief."

Seeing the two ancestors and grandchildren who behaved strangely, Tan Youruo had a creepy feeling, but the next scene simply scared Tan Youruo so much that she almost vomited out her heart.

With the boy's shout, the lights suddenly turned on in the village, and then they all ran out, gathered around Tan Youruo and Arowana, and looked at them, as if they had seen some rare treasure.

Originally, Tan Youruo was timid, not to mention, who saw this formation, who was not afraid.

"If things don't go well, let's run away." Arowana whispered.

At this moment, someone shouted, "Get out of the way, the village chief is here." Then everyone consciously moved out of the way, allowing a middle-aged man in his fifties to walk in.

"Little girl, how did you get in?" The middle-aged man asked in a calm tone.

For the village chief's question, Tan Youruo actually didn't know how to answer, how could they get in, of course they walked in. At this time, Tan Youruo was a little suspicious that the other party was an idiot.

"Walk in! Is there something wrong? Tan Youruo looked at the other party and replied weakly.

"Walked in? Didn't you come across something then? The village chief asked incredulously.

"No, do you have to meet anything to enter your village to get in?" Tan Youruo asked a little puzzled.

When she finished answering this sentence, the people around her immediately argued.

"How could it not have been encountered, I think she must be lying."

"I think too, she must be in league with that fox demon, they just want to trick us all out and kill us."

"Maybe they're not lying, maybe the circle has lost its effect after all these years?"

"How is it possible, none of the magic circles in our village have failed, how can that magic circle fail?"

................

Tan Youruo listened to everyone's miscellaneous arguments, she felt that these people were really crazy, what fox demons, what magic circles, how could she not understand them at all!

"Shut up!"

The village chief roared angrily, and everyone stopped arguing and looked at the village chief.

"Little girl, you really haven't touched anything?" The village chief looked at Tan Youruo and asked again.

"I really don't. I also came to you unexpectedly because I got lost. ”

The village chief looked at Tan Youruo's innocent eyes, did not continue to speak, but invited Tan Youruo into the old grandmother's house, and asked the old man to prepare some food for Tan Youruo, and then sat next to him, frowning and thinking about something.

Although Tan Youruo could finally have food to fill her stomach, she was still a little unhappy when she saw the others depressed, so he looked at the village chief, "Village chief, what is the matter with the fox demon you are talking about?" ”

After a sigh, the village chief told her what had happened.

More than 100 years ago, their village, Li Village, was relatively remote, but it was not so dilapidated. Although there is no great wealth, the people in the village live and work in peace and contentment, and the neighbors are harmonious. However, one day, a group of ignorant young people in the village found three white foxes at the entrance of the village, and one of them was seriously injured and was about to die. So they discussed, if they wanted to catch the three white foxes, not only could they eat meat, but their fur must also be very valuable.

However, they did not know that although we often go up to the mountains to hunt, there are some animals that are spiritual and must not be killed, including foxes. In the end, although they succeeded, they still ran away with one.

When the young men returned to the village, they were severely punished by the old village chief, and then buried the two white foxes in the back mountain, and asked the young men to kneel down to pray for the white fox's forgiveness.

After a few years of fear, the village was safe and sound, and people thought it was all right. However, decades ago, a fox demon suddenly came to the village and wanted to destroy our entire village and avenge her husband and children. Fortunately, there was a master in the village who withstood the attack of the fox demon. The failed fox demon did not give up, but stayed outside the village, and used the demon method to lay out a formation, so that the people in the village could not get out, and the people outside the village could not enter.

Later, the master in the village was seriously injured because of the battle with the fox demon, but when he was dying, he also laid out this seven-star gossip array to prevent the fox demon from washing the village in blood. In this way, the people of Lingcun lost contact with the outside world for decades.

"Haven't you tried to sneak out?"

"I tried, even if anyone is lucky enough to escape, it won't take a few days for the corpse to appear at the entrance of the village."

"That fox is so hateful, it has killed your people, and it has trapped you for so many years, it should be okay, why is she still so aggressive? Arowana, we can't ignore this matter, we must help them. ”

"How can I help, just you and me, and train that fox?" The Arowana, who had become a spirit pet, replied with his divine sense, and rolled his eyes and glanced at Tan Youruo.

"That's right, but if we don't defeat that vixen, we won't be able to get out?"

"Aren't I thinking about it? You think no one is as heartless as you! Arowana said dismissively.

"If Ouyang Xuanyu is here, it won't be so, let's meditate here." Thinking of Ouyang Xuanyu, Tan Youruo became a nymphomaniac again.

"Don't be a nymphomaniac, okay, when is it, and a nymphomaniac, are you big-hearted or heartless?" Seeing Tan Youruo's appearance, Arowana deliberately mocked.

"What can I do, I can't run, I can't fight. Hey, why are you so unlucky that I'm so unlucky along the way? Are you going to kill me? .......”

Before Tan Youruo could finish speaking, the dragon fish suddenly rushed out of the door and said to Tan Youruo: "Go, there is a fight outside the village, go and take a look." ”

After saying that, the Arowana quickly ran to the outside of the village.

When Tan Youruo and the people from the village arrived at the entrance of the village, the Arowana was already there watching the battle. Since it was already evening, the sky was dark, and except for the Arowana, no one could see who was fighting with whom.

"Arowana, how do I feel that person is a little familiar?" Tan Youruo asked with some suspicion.

"Didn't you just talk about it, and you couldn't forget it?"

"You mean, that person is Ouyang Xuanyu?"

Arowana didn't pay attention to Tan Youruo, but continued to watch the battle.

"Ouyang Xuanyu, come on!" As soon as he heard that it was Ouyang Xuanyu, Tan Youruo excitedly forgot that there were so many people next to him, and shouted.

As soon as he heard Tan Youruo's voice, Ouyang Xuanyu's heart trembled, he originally planned to quietly get rid of this fox demon, and then continue to follow him unconsciously. But he didn't expect that this fox demon's Taoism was quite deep, and it was so difficult to deal with, and the sound of the fight actually led Tan Youruo and them out.

Ouyang Xuanyu ignored Tan Youruo, because if he was not careful, this fox demon might kill him.

In fact, along the way, Ouyang Xuanyu was behind Tan Youruo and Arowana, wiping their butts for the two of them: first in the ghost village, although they ran away, he spent a lot of effort in the back, because in that ghost village, there was actually a ghost king; Then watching the two of them enter Li Village, I thought I could take a little rest, but I didn't expect that a fox demon with a higher path would run out. At that moment, Ouyang Xuanyu really regretted following them, because with their unlucky appearance, he didn't know how much trouble it would give him in the future.

"Arowana, how are they playing now, who is slightly better now?" Tan Youruo looked at Ouyang Xuanyu, who was very anxious, and the mysterious man, and asked Arowana anxiously.

"It should be that mysterious man who is slightly better," Arowana replied worriedly.

"What does that mysterious man look like?" The village chief listened to the conversation between Tan Youruo and Arowana, and asked thoughtfully.

"Don't ask, that should be what you call the fox demon." Arowana replied without concealment.

"Hey, I haven't seen her for more than ten years, I thought she was really gone, but fortunately no one left the village!" Hearing Arowana's answer, the village chief shook his head in disappointment.

Ouyang Xuanyu, who had been fighting with the fox demon for half an hour, knew that he had really met an opponent this time, and he thought that he could easily take down the fox demon, but not only was he a little powerless, but he was also scratched by the fox demon's claws several deep cuts. He knew that if he didn't leave something behind this time, he really couldn't get out of it.

At this point, he immediately took a big step back, while muttering something in his mouth that no one could hear, and then suddenly flew his sword towards the other party.

"Boy, you've already used this trick just now, it won't work for me." After fighting for more than half an hour, the fox demon finally said a word, and then grabbed Ouyang Xuanyu's flying sword with one hand.

"It didn't work just now, but what if I'm adding something?" Before Ouyang Xuanyu finished speaking, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky, hit Ouyang Xuanyu's flying sword, and knocked the fox demon out and fell heavily to the ground.

At the same time, Ouyang Xuanyu also vomited a mouthful of blood and knelt on one knee.
