Chapter Ninety-One: I'll Accompany You to the Tomb
The old woman said tremblingly: "The young man is not bad-hearted, but the old woman can't go back now." ”
"Why?" Orion asked, puzzled.
The old woman raised her right hand: "My right hand is broken, I will come to find my hand." ”
Only then did Orion see that the sleeve of the old woman's right hand was empty.
In the deep mountains of this icy and snowy land, this old woman appeared here, which was not normal, and now she had broken her right hand, which reminded Orion of the broken fox claw he was carrying in the bamboo basket.
He realized that this old woman was not human.
Orion forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and with some reluctance took out the broken claw in the bamboo basket, and said in a trembling voice: "Auntie, I picked up a severed hand on the hillside in front, and I don't know which crazy guy made the trap. “
Orion was afraid that his arrangement of the trap would be exposed, and with his shotgun, he would never be able to defeat the old woman.
When the old woman saw the broken fox claw, she snatched it with a look of ecstasy, and said with excitement in her voice: "Young man, thank you for helping me find the severed hand." ”
The old woman already knew about Orion's guessing that she was not human at this moment, so she didn't shy away from Orion anymore, and took her severed hand to her severed arm in front of Orion.
The severed hand magically grew on the severed arm, and the wound had completely healed in an instant.
The old woman moved the fingers of her right hand, and the broken arm had been restored to its original state.
The old woman turned her head and glanced at Orion deeply, and continued to say in her trembling voice: "Since the old woman's hand was retrieved with your help, then the old woman must thank you, you can go home with me, and I will give you something." ”
At this time, Orion was very scared in his heart, this was a fox demon in front of him, it was too late to hide, how could he dare to go home with him.
He had the heart to refuse, but he couldn't open his mouth, as if some force had sealed his mouth, and at the same time, he actually followed the old woman and slowly walked towards the top of the mountain.
Orion tried to control his steps, but his body seemed to be controlled, and he could only follow the old woman to the top of the mountain.
I don't know how long I walked, but Orion and the old woman finally came to the top of the mountain, and on the top of the mountain, there was a small cabin.
The old woman turned to Orion and said, "You wait for me here, and I'll go into the house and get you something." ”
After the old woman entered the house, Orion stepped on the snow under his feet, and wanted to move his feet and escape, but his feet seemed to have taken root, and he couldn't move half a minute.
After a while, the old woman's thin body came out with a bag taller than her.
The old woman placed the bag in her hand in front of Orion, and the bag fell to the ground, splashing a large handful of snow, and the contents of the bag must be extremely heavy.
After throwing down the bag, the old woman turned into that trembling appearance again, and put her hands in each other's cuffs, like an ordinary old lady in the village.
The old woman continued to say in her old and trembling voice: "Young man, you can take whatever you want from that bag, as long as you can take it." ”
Orion tried to move, and found that his body, which had been uncontrollable just now, could move, and he opened the mouth of the bag, and saw that it was full of bright gold coins.
Orion's throat moved, and he said excitedly: "Can I really take these casually?" ”
The old woman nodded: "You can take as much as you want." ”
With these words, Orion was overjoyed, at this moment he had forgotten that the old woman in front of him was a fox demon, and he had forgotten that he was still afraid to die just now, and right now, he only had the yellow, orange and orange gold coins in his eyes.
Orion stretched out his big hand, grabbed a handful of gold coins in his bag, and put them in his pocket, until when all the pockets were full, Orion found that what he had contained was only a drop in the bucket of gold coins.
He put a lot of gold coins into the bamboo basket on his back, until the bamboo basket was overwhelmed and squeaked, and he was afraid that the strap of the bamboo basket would break, and Orion stopped, but seeing that there were still not many gold coins in the bag, Orion wanted to take more.
Orion also didn't care about the cold in the mountains, gritted his teeth, took off his hat, and after stuffing the hat with gold coins, Orion carried a basket full of gold coins on his back and said goodbye to the old woman with a hat of gold coins in his hand.
Orion did not choose to take off his clothes and put gold coins, although he was greedy, he was not occupied by greed, he knew very well that if he took off his clothes and used them to hold gold coins, he would freeze to death, and when the time came, he would not be able to bring back a single gold coin.
Bidding farewell to the old woman, Orion walked down the mountain, and he hurried home as fast as he could, with the biting cold wind blowing his cheeks.
Back home, Orion looked at the dazzling pile of gold coins and laughed.
At that moment, he took out some and went to the town in exchange for a lot of wine and meat that he was usually reluctant to eat.
With this money, Orion did not say that he would use it for some serious business, but spent his days wandering between gambling houses and tobacco houses, and the gold coins were quickly squandered by him.
When there was no money, Orion thought that the old woman had countless gold coins, so greed overcame fear, and he went up the hill again.
This time he took a cloth bag to hold gold coins, because he was afraid that if he took too much, the fox demon would turn his face, so the cloth pocket he took was not too big, but even so, he could hold a lot more gold coins than last time.
Coming to the top of the hill again, Orion saw the old fox demon standing in front of the wooden house, as if she knew his coming, and deliberately waited here, with a huge bag of gold coins beside her.
Orion approached, bowed respectfully, and asked if she could give him some more gold coins.
The old woman readily agreed, it was still the same as the first time, you can take it as long as you can take it.
Orion was overjoyed, filled his bag with gold coins, and prepared to go down the mountain, and before leaving, Orion tried to ask the old woman, "Can I still come here to get gold coins in the future?" ”
The old woman didn't have any expression on her face, and said lightly: "You can take it whenever you want, whatever you want." ”
Orion was even more pleased with the past, and hurriedly went down the mountain, continuing his drunken life, lingering in the major smoke houses and gambling houses.
Within a month, he had spent the bag of gold again, so he went up the mountain again to ask for it.
In this way, he went up the mountain several more times, and it was not until the bag of gold coins was almost at the bottom that Orion used some gold coins to buy a house in the town, and it was at that time that I met Orion, who was also my second destined person.
When I saw him for the first time, I saw that he had a strong demonic aura on his body, and that he only had one year left to live.
I told Orion about this, and when Orion heard that he had only one year to live, he was very frightened, saying that he had been killed by a monster, and begged me to save him.
After I was pressed again and again, he told me the story, and I went to meet the fox demon, and the situation was similar to what Orion said.
The fox demon has practiced for a hundred years, and has never harmed anyone, this time she used the mortal Yang Shou to practice, and she also exchanged it for that bag of gold coins, and every time the hunter takes a part of the gold coins, the fox demon will extract a part of its Yang Shou.
Although the person who was exchanged for Yang Shou did not know before, he had already spent the gold coins, and the way of heaven was fair, and what he got would be paid accordingly.
So I can't force Yang Shou to be taken from the fox demon, so I can only ask Orion to return the gold coins to the fox demon first, so that I can get his Yang Shou back.
But Orion's gold coins were all spent by him, how could he take out so many gold coins, so Orion made a wish to me, saying that he wanted to be a rich man, I paid the price of a tail, and gave him a wish, he was rich, paid off the gold coins to the fox demon, and got back his lifespan, and I, one minus and one more, still only have eight tails.
I don't think these two are my real destined people, so I looked for the third, fourth, and fifth, but I still didn't break through to the Nine-Tails, until I met you, and you were my sixth destined person. “
After Tang Wan finished speaking, she pointed at Zhou Tao.
And Zhou Tao was completely immersed in the story told by Tang Wan, this stupid cat helped others every time, and she herself didn't really get help from beginning to end.
Zhou Tao said to Tang Wan thoughtfully: "You will never be able to break through the Nine Tails like this." ”
Tang Wan sighed, a trace of sadness appeared on her face, and she said softly: "I don't know, but my civet clan is such a rule, and I can't help it, so I can only keep looking for someone who is destined until I find a real person." ”
Zhou Tao nodded, and he turned to look at the courtyard outside: "As long as you help us break through this dragon's lair, I will make a wish to you." ”
"Really?" Tang Wanmei's eyes lit up and said in surprise.
"Really." Zhou Tao nodded.
"Great, then what are you waiting for, we will go to this king's tomb now." As soon as Tang Wan took Zhou Tao's hand, she was about to walk out.
Zhou Tao was suddenly held by the woman with a peerless face in front of him, feeling the other party's soft and slender jade hand, his heart couldn't help but wave, and he hurriedly pulled out his hand unnaturally.
Zhou Tao's action was naturally perceived by Tang Wan, Tang Wan covered her mouth and chuckled, and said with a smile in her bright eyes: "What's the matter, my destined person, are you shy?" ”
Zhou Tao was a little embarrassed, he didn't respond to Tang Wan's ridicule, but asked, "How do you know that this is the king's tomb?" Which king's tomb is here? ”
Seeing that Zhou Tao asked about the matter, Tang Wan didn't tease Zhou Tao anymore, her smile was restrained, and she said: "I have lived here since I was a kitten, and I have lived here for more than 400 years. ”
"Fu Wang?" Zhou Tao frowned, although he is not a master of history, he still knows a lot about some famous people in history, but he has really not heard of this Fu King.
Zhou Tao searched in his mind for a long time, but he still couldn't find the information of King Fu, so he could only ask Tang Wan.
