Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Demon Fox Harms People
"Erniu...... Look at this ......"
Da Chun pointed to an herb and said in surprise.
"That's right! That's it......"
Erniu said happily, that herb had been converted into equivalent silver in his eyes at this time, and the white flowers were very beautiful.
"You tie me with a rope, I'll take it off!"
That herb grows on the edge of a cliff and is not easy to pick. Erniu asked Dachun to pull him with a rope, and then he crawled and squirmed there.
It took a lot of effort for the two of them to finally pick the herbs.
"It's so pretty......"
Erniu held the herbs in the palm of his hand and rubbed them.
"Quick...... Go back quickly and exchange money at Renxin Hall......"
Da Chun hurriedly urged.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Erniu carefully hid the herbs in his arms, and then picked up the things he brought so that Da Chun could rush down the mountain together.
Although this herb is scarce, there is not only one strain on the mountain.
The old gentleman of Renxintang said that as long as there is one, there is no superfluity. If this is preempted, it will not be able to exchange for money.
The two of them trotted all the way, not daring to stop at all.
"Da Chun, did you hear any sound?" Er Niu seemed to hear a strange sound, so he asked Da Chun.
"It seems to be!"
Oharu listened carefully for a moment, and found that there was indeed a voice coming from somewhere else, and it sounded like a person's voice.
"Why don't you take a look?"
Erniu was a little curious.
"Let's go down first, in case it's too late to go back......"
Da Chun still thinks that it is true to go down the mountain to change money first. As for the presence of a man on this mountain, what is so strange?
"It's okay!"
Erniu didn't care.
When they turned back after collecting medicinal herbs, the remaining villagers had just entered the mountain. The two of them are the fastest, and they shouldn't delay things for a while.
In the end, Da Chun still didn't beat Erniu, and the two followed the sound together.
The closer he got, the second cow finally saw it...... A brown fur fox with a long sword flying up and down in his hand.
What the two of them heard just now was the cry of the fox's mouth.
Fox practicing swords?
Didn't you become a fine?
The faces of the two of them were a little not very good-looking.
Naturally, they have heard a lot of rumors that monsters are harming people, and now that they have seen this fox, they have become a climate, and they can actually practice swords.
It's really impossible for the two of them to be afraid!
"Let's go...... Let's go......"
Da Chun pulled the stiff Erniu and said in a low voice.
The fox seemed to be a little self-forgetful, and this was a good opportunity to escape.
"Hey......"
Erniu whispered, rubbed his slightly trembling legs, and prepared to leave secretly.
The fox who practiced swords was Hu Da, who had never forgotten An Quan's entrustment, and came here every morning to practice swords. Originally, there were basically no people on this Meishan Mountain, and the place he was looking for was relatively remote.
It's just that today's sword skills have improved, and under the agitation of the mood, he didn't hold back for a while, and shouted twice.
Who knows...... It happened to be heard by Erniu and Dachun.
To say that this Hu Da has grown a lot in cultivation recently. Erniu thought that his voice was very low and would not attract attention, but he was heard clearly by Hu Da.
Hu Da immediately glanced at where they were.
At this moment, it scared the two of them a lot.
"Run...... The demon fox has discovered us......"
Erniu immediately shouted, pulled Dachun and fled.
Hu Da was also taken aback by their voices, and immediately stopped practicing his sword, put his sword into the sheath and ran towards his cave.
"It doesn't seem to be chasing ......"
The two of them ran for a while, secretly looked back, and saw that there was no one chasing behind them, so they dared to stop and breathe.
"Say, why doesn't the fox chase us?"
Realizing that there was no threat to his life, Erniu became bolder, and he actually began to think about why Hu Da let them go.
"Who knows!" Da Chun glanced at him angrily, it was this guy who was curious and wanted to take a look, and now he directly saw a fox demon.
"Hey......
Erniu also knew that his curiosity was indeed too heavy, and he almost hurt himself and Da Chun. Seeing that Da Chun blamed himself, he didn't refute it, just scratched his head and laughed embarrassedly.
"Let's go!"
Da Chun greeted, and the two went down the mountain again.
It's just that...... When he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, a sudden gust of wind quickly hit Erniu from the side, and Erniu was unstable and was directly thrown to the ground.
Da Chun fixed his eyes and saw that it was a brown fur fox that attacked Erniu.
It's the demon fox from before!
Da Chun's heart was suddenly shocked.
At first glance, the brown fox was indeed quite similar to Hu Da, and the size and coat color were almost the same. The only difference is that Hu Da carries with him the sword given by An Quan, while this fox does not.
But where did Da Chun know this, he only thought that Hu Da attacked Erniu.
After the fox knocked Er Niu down, it bit directly into his throat, and a stream of warm blood spurted out of Er Niu's neck, instantly staining his cheeks.
"Ho...... Ho ......"
Erniu made a painful sound from his mouth.
The bloody scene in front of him really scared Da Chun stupidly, and he was directly stuck in place.
"Run!"
Erniu didn't know where the strength came from, so he suddenly shouted at Da Chun, and took out the medicinal materials in his arms and threw them to Da Chun.
"Smack......
The herbs hit Da Chun's face, making a sound, and it was this sound that brought him back to his senses.
"Erniu ......"
Da Chun looked at Erniu with tears in his eyes, then grabbed the medicinal herbs, and resolutely turned around and fled.
The voice of Erniu behind him had become softer and weaker, and only a penetrating tearing sound remained.
This brute...... It's eating the meat of Erniu!
Da Chun ran lifelessly. On the feet, one of the shoes made by the daughter-in-law had been lost, and the soles of the feet quickly grinded out blood blisters.
However, he didn't dare to turn back, for fear that the demon fox would catch up again.
I don't know how long it took to run...... Da Chun suddenly found that he had returned to the village, and at this time he was still holding the medicinal herb in his hand. As soon as he saw this medicinal material, he thought of the Erniu brothers who died in the fox's mouth.
A moment of sadness comes from it!
"Da Chun is back! Didn't Erniu go up the mountain with you, why did you come back alone?" An acquaintance saw Da Chun and immediately asked.
Da Chun's mind was full of the tragic situation when Er Niu died, and he didn't hear what the visitor said, but continued to walk forward in despair.
"What's the matter...... Don't pay attention to people!"
When the man saw that Da Chun ignored him, he was suddenly slightly angry.
Da Chun walked back home in such a daze, and it wasn't until his daughter-in-law saw him like this and came forward to ask that he woke up instantly.
