Chapter 55: Let go of the fox demon
The wooden kite didn't say a word, and threw the dagger over.
The moment Li Huaiyun received the dagger, his whole body suddenly felt cold, and the cold air entered from the palm of his hand and quickly swam all over his body.
He felt like his body couldn't do it at all.
Is this the effect of extreme cold on the body? It may also be that my realm is too low,
Li Huaiyun waved his arms lightly, adjusted his physical state, and tried his best to keep his body in a normal state.
This weapon is indeed not something that ordinary people can hold, he threw the dagger back into the hands of the wooden kite, "This weapon is not suitable!" ”
"Normal, too heavy yin qi, it's not suitable for ordinary people! Next time, the old man will let you choose the spirit weapon, and it is recommended that you choose the defensive one! ”
Li Huaiyun raised his fist, "That's not necessary, I think offense is the best defense." ”
"Humph! Young! Most of the defenses can save lives, and the old man didn't mention it to you when he asked you to come? ”
"Nope!"
Li Huaiyun found that Mu Kite's attitude towards Si Zheng was very special, on the one hand, it was a master-apprentice relationship, and on the other hand, it might be the identity of this woman.
He suddenly had an idea in his heart, so he clenched his fists and bowed, "Wooden kite, I have something to do, I want to ask you for a favor!" ”
The wooden kite was a little curious about this, "What's the matter?" ”
"I hope I can help me, go and persuade the secretary to let go of that fox demon!"
"Last time in prison, you used your token as a guarantee, but after solving the case, Si Zheng refused to release him on the grounds that the other party was a demon, which would cause you to lose your token!"
"Tokens are secondary! However, with my understanding of Old Man Qin, what he decided would definitely not change! Not to mention letting go of that fox demon! There are lessons to be learned! ”
"What is the lesson from the past?"
"You don't have to ask!"
"Hey!" Li Huaiyun sighed, since the wooden kite said so, there must be no way.
I can't help it.
Seeing Li Huaiyun's expression a little lost, Mu Kite felt that this person's thoughts were a little strange, "Actually, I also agree with the old man's approach, as for the token or something, it doesn't matter at all, you can't treat monsters in the way of ordinary people,"
"I remember when I was sensible, my parents taught me to keep my promises, which is also the reason why they were able to make the medicinal herb business bigger, because some of the hard-to-find medicinal herbs in the family were traded with monsters."
Li Huaiyun pursed his lips, "Although later they also died at the hands of monsters." ”
"You must know that that monster has harmed a lot of people, and I am afraid that your behavior will bring serious consequences."
"According to what I said, the best way to deal with monsters is to destroy, because no matter what, they are demons, and they will not have kindness to people at all!"
"I agree with you, but I still think it's important to keep your promises."
"Since your parents died at the hands of monsters, then you should hate monsters, but your current attitude?"
"Meaningless hatred has no effect, it's not the monster that killed my parents!"
The wooden kite instantly understood what he was thinking, this guy wanted to release the fox demon, and his purpose was probably to let the fox demon help and find clues to the monster that killed his parents.
However, will the fox demon really help?
This matter aroused the interest of the wooden kite, and she said, "Since you have this purpose, then I will help you once!" ”
"Really? Are you really going to help me and plead with Si Zheng to release that fox demon? ”
"Cut! Do you think it's possible? The old man was so stubborn that it was useless to beg. ”
"That..."
"Of course, I should go directly to the prison and let the fox demon go directly," said the wooden kite, "I have my own way, but there is a problem. ”
"What's the problem?"
"Who's going to take the blame!"
Li Huaiyun immediately clenched his fists and said, "This matter has nothing to do with the owner of the wooden kite helm, it is done by one person." ”
The wooden kite got the response she wanted, "Good! I'll help you in vain! She waved her hand, "Let's go!" Let's go to the Demon Hell! ”
Li Huaiyun and Mu Kite left the Qianji Pavilion, and they deliberately chose a place with few people and went to the prison.
When they reached the door of the prison, two guards stopped them, "Lord of the Wooden Kite Helm, why are you here?" ”
"The secretary asked me to be in charge of interrogating the monsters in the prison."
The guards looked at each other, "I'm sorry! Helmsman, we don't seem to have received anything like this ... ”
"I don't blame you, this case has just ended, and the secretary has just told us."
Li Huaiyun also asked, "What about you Liu Helm?" ”
"Something, I've left the Iron Painting Pavilion!"
"So he doesn't know the progress of the case, it's normal that you haven't received an order, since Lord Liu Helm is not here, this issue about the fox demon will be handled by us!"
The guards glanced at Li Huaiyun, and this person had indeed interrogated him before, so they didn't think much about it, "Then I'll lead the way!" ”
Li Huaiyun followed the wooden kite into the prison, and in this dim corridor, from time to time, there were wails in their ears.
They arrive at the prison where the fox demon is being held, and the wooden kite asks the guards to open the prison door, and they want to go in and interrogate them.
The guard refused at first, because he knew that this fox demon had a certain ability, and it was very likely that it would be dangerous to enter it rashly.
However, the kite insisted, and the guards had to do so, and he stayed by the door, watching the inside of the cell, hoping that everything would be safe.
Li Huaiyun and Mu Kite entered the prison where the fox demon was held.
The fox demon stood up and looked at Li Huaiyun with hatred, "You're finally here!" ”
"Of course, I'm an honest guy."
The fox demon was quite disdainful of this, and snorted, "I thought you wouldn't come back!" ”
"Not coming back? Since I promised you something, how could I break my word. ”
The fox demon glanced around, glanced at the guards outside, and said softly, "How are you going to take me out of this place?" If it weren't for the edict, the guards wouldn't have let me go. ”
Li Huaiyun turned his back to the guard outside and took out the scroll from inside his clothes, "I've been prepared for a long time!" ”
"Oh!" When Mu Kite saw the scroll, she immediately understood what Li Huaiyun meant, and she nodded, so that there was no need to alarm the others
The scroll I sent was used by him like this, and I am already considered a mastermind!
She turned and walked outside, and said to the guard, "This is in charge of him, and I want to go to another cell, please take it there for me." ”
Li Huaiyun saw that the wooden kite was about to support the guards, so he opened his mouth and scolded loudly, pointing at the fox demon and scolding, "You are the accomplice, responsible for luring the woman there for the official's pleasure, this behavior is enough for you to stay here for the rest of your life." ”
He continued, "Tell me where you will bury those who have been killed!" ”
Li Huaiyun watched the wooden kite take away the guards, and he immediately said to the fox demon, "I asked you to leave this time, it was a temporary idea between me and that woman, and with your crimes, you must be refined,"
"So I hope you'll do me a favor when you're gone."
"Say it!"
"Find the monster that was traded with the couple who bought and sold medicinal materials in Kyoto more than ten years ago."
The fox demon didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, "Okay!" For the sake of your help. ”
Li Huaiyun said to the fox demon, "Then I will wronged you first!" He opened the scroll, then faced the fox demon and ambushed it in the scroll.
He walked out of the cell, closed the door, and went straight to where the kite was.
Since the wooden kite was just for show, they quickly left the prison and came out with the guards.
They left the Demon Slayer, called a carriage, and drove quickly into a wooded area outside the city gates.
After arriving at the destination, Li Huaiyun quickly took out the scroll and released the fox demon.
"I have fulfilled my promise and let you go, what you promised me, please be sure to do it, I will wait in Kyoto, I hope you can keep the agreement, even if you can't find it, you have to come here and tell me in person."
The fox demon looked kind, it knew that the other party had let go of itself and had to face a lot of problems.
"I'm afraid there are still a lot of things going to happen in Kyoto these days, and I hope you can deal with it in time!"
When Li Huaiyun heard this, he nodded solemnly, "What is the purpose of your demon clan?" ”
"It's not something I know!" The fox demon shook his head, "In short, pay attention to every case that happens next." ”
"Don't just understand other people"
The fox demon opened his mouth and spit out a burst of white mist, which packed all the people around him, and in the world filled with white mist, it was possible that he couldn't even tell the difference.
Looking at the white mist that gradually dissipated around, there was no fox demon in it.
"I've been a member of the Demon Slayer Division for so long, and I haven't seen anyone release the monster without permission, you are the first person! This kind of glory is rare. ”
"It's hard and dangerous!" Li Huaiyun knew that the consequences of this behavior were serious, so he lowered his voice and hid his nervousness a little.
"I don't feel afraid to look at you! Privately releasing monsters is a capital offense! ”
"Say you're not afraid! That's a lie to you! Li Huaiyun responded softly, "Everyone is actually afraid of death, but sometimes if you don't fight, you will never be able to get what you want." ”
He sighed, "I hope I can get a good result by doing this!" ”
The wooden kite frowned, clasped his hands in front of him, what the result was, it depends on the fox demon!
When the fog clears completely,
They got up and left the grove to return to the city, but at the gate they saw a crowd of people standing under the trees on one side of the wall, each with the look of horror on their faces.
"It's too much, who did it?"
"And there is no humanity!"
"Hurry up and report to the official, and the murderer must be severely punished."
Li Huaiyun was a little curious, so he said to the wooden kite, "Why don't you go there and see, what's going on?" ”
The wooden kite shrugged his shoulders, "If you think you can, you can go without asking me." ”
"Oh! Okay, the kite, let's go over there and see what's going on. Li Huaiyun walked towards the crowd, and the wooden kite followed.
When he was only more than ten meters away from the crowd, he stood there, raised his head, looked inside, and finally saw clearly what was going on in front of him.
Two people hanged themselves from trees!
