Seeing the graceful body gradually drift away, everyone did not dare to come out, until it disappeared at the end of sight, a mess of relief, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.

In the silence of the night, the village was silent, but the villagers all lit the lamps without exception, and it was difficult to sleep. "The mountain is surrounded by few days, and foxes and ghosts can be demons. As soon as Qin Mufeng entered the study, Xie Qianyan said.

"Sir, you also think that is really a fox demon?" Qin Mufeng said.

"There are many records in the classics of the predecessors, but ......" Xie Qian is a cabinet veteran in the end, and his vision and knowledge are no better than mortals, "What does Gongzi think?"

"This ...... I think it's a bit tricky," Qin Mufeng replied, "It came down from the mountain, and when it walked in front of the gathered crowd, it paused obviously, and then although it seemed to walk calmly, its head kept slightly lowered, and it didn't look at anyone, if it really wanted to announce that it was out of the mountain, it wouldn't be so silent." ”

"Yes, the child's judgment is no different from the old man, the form is obviously a woman's shame, but what is the motive for doing this kind of demon, it is difficult to discern for a while," Xie Qian said, "Things are abnormal, wait and see what happens." ”

Qin Mufeng saw that Xie Qian affirmed his thoughts, and his heart relaxed slightly, after all, this conjecture of his own was really a bit of self-comfort, which was also human nature, and after being frightened by strange things, he would always instill a negative psychological hint in himself.

"Childe's internal strength cultivation is very good!" Xie Qian interrupted Qin Mufeng's daze at the right time.

"I'm sorry sir, because of my sensitive background, I have been deceived a lot before, I hope Mr. forgive me!"

"Since you deliberately conceal it, you have your own reasons, but you have to be careful that excessive overdraft outweighs the losses," Xie Qian said, "Just concentrate on practicing martial arts and don't abandon your studies, it will be of great benefit to you in the future!"

"Yes!"

After the fox demon appeared in the past ten days, many villagers have been sick, bedridden, for a time people are panicked, Lang Zhong, the mage is invited to the mountain by the villagers in an endless stream, and finally because it is located in a poor and remote place and it is difficult to improve, the originally peaceful village is gradually shrouded in haze......

On this day, the village was suddenly full of people, Qin Mufeng and Xie Yan followed the sound, and pushed aside the crowd, a swollen corpse floated on the stream, and the colorful rotten grease continued to spread into the water.

"Could it be that it's because of this dead body?" Everyone suddenly realized that the cause of the disease in the village seemed to be easily solved, and it was not necessary to mention it when reporting to the official for medicine, but in the face of the officials who came to carry away the dead body, the villagers were obviously secretive about the fox demon and chose not to talk about it.

A day is boiling, the villagers' disease incident has finally come to an end, and when the voices of the people in the village gradually subside, it is already a bright moon, since he began to instruct Qin Mufeng, the white ape has come to supervise every three days, but tonight is not the time when the white ape appears?

In the backyard, Xie Yan has been practicing swords under the moon, her light posture and the fierce sword light are like a reflection, suddenly setting off the sea boiling waves, and the energy will make the fence roar, Qin Mufeng can't help but be fascinated, since he also picked up the long stick and danced whirring, the two of them complement each other, and suddenly the two waves of qi compete against each other, and the remaining strength even lifts up a piece of roof thatch, which falls like snowflakes.

Between the thatching sprinkles, an object suddenly fell in mid-air, Qin Mufeng instinctively waved his stick, and a piece of fur fell in response, picking it up and seeing, it was the head of the fox demon, and the strange eyes were still shining with a faint green light!

"Please don't run!" In the bamboo forest outside the backyard, a cry sounded faintly, the white ape escaped from the darkness, signaled the two to enter the bamboo forest, between the bamboo forest, only to see a woman in white sitting on the ground, her hands clasped around her calves, her head buried deep between her knees, her soft straight black hair poured down, and she kept shaking with her sobs;

"What's wrong with you?" Xie Yan stepped forward and gently stroked the woman in white and said softly.

"......" was obviously surprised by the visitor, the woman in white couldn't help shrinking, looked up at Xie Yan, this look, Xie Yan was instantly amazed by the girl who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old, under the slender willow eyebrows, there were tears in the eyes that were as bright as the moon, which was even more beautiful and moving, and her delicate posture could not be covered even by the unhealed knife marks on the cheeks, and the slender figure was far away from her peers.

"Sister, give me back the hood!" she said quietly, biting her pink and full lips.

"Sister, you pretended to be the fox demon that day, right?" Xie Yan said softly, "Can you tell my sister why you did this?"

"No, you didn't do this," Qin Mufeng said, "Who forced you to do this?"

"Don't be afraid, with us, no one can hurt you!" When Xie Yan heard this, she immediately understood the meaning of Qin Mufeng's words, and said arrogantly, "It's just a girl, you see how many villagers were scared by pretending to be a fox demon that day, if we don't know your secret feelings, we won't be able to make a move!"

Seeing that the girl was still holding hands and hesitating, Xie Yan patiently followed the temptation, and finally made her trust and speak: "My name is Xia Yi." ”

Hey, you are too easy to believe people, how can you tell a woman's name to outsiders so casually? The girl of the Xie family thought in her heart, but she didn't say it in the end, just listened to her continue.

"Because my father is very addicted to gambling and owes a lot of silver taels outside, he paid me off my debt to Shen Yuanwai, that is, my father's biggest creditor," Xia Yi explained, "In fact, Shen Yuanwai treated me well, and after entering the Shen family, he didn't treat me as a girl, and asked me to learn some opera and dance from a teacher like a girl." ”

"No!" Qin Mufeng denied in his heart, he was also from a rich family, how his father Qin Zongyao taught his adopted daughter He knew that opera and dance were definitely not important in education, unless the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting had been learned, and Fang Lun was interested in learning the miscellaneous arts, and this trend of putting the cart before the horse was more like a long-term investment that would be offered to dignitaries and dignitaries in the future to show favor.

"But the young master of the Shen family is a moody fierce god, with countless thugs, and all the poor people who provoke him on weekdays are chopped off their fingers and arms at every turn, somehow, I heard that there were four old Taoist priests who have become immortals in this mountain in the past, and I heard that there is a Gexian Weng Temple in this village, and there are pills left by the old gods in the statues, I am afraid that this villager will not allow it, so I am forced to pretend to be a fox demon to scare away the villagers. Xia Yi pointed to the scar on his forehead and continued, "I didn't follow it at the beginning, and I couldn't help but say that it was this knife." ”

"Such a bully, the government doesn't care?" Compared with the ruffians he encountered, Xie Yan was an eye-opener.

"Money makes the devil grind. Qin Mufeng continued, "Since you have already pretended to be once, why is he forcing each other today?"

When Xia Yi heard this, he forcibly stopped sobbing, "The previous time there was a sudden incident, which scared many villagers, and then arranged for people to poison upstream, but somehow, the guy who went to poison never came back, and the eldest prince Shen was furious, intending to gather thugs tomorrow to forcibly drive them away, I ...... In fact, this time I sneaked out, I wanted to warn the villagers, but I really didn't have the face to see everyone, so I also took the hood with me, who knew that the hood was snatched by the white monkey on the way, and now my goal has been achieved, and please return the hood to me......"

"You don't want to pretend to be a ghost, why do you attach so much importance to this hood?" Xie Yanqi said.

"The eyes of that hood are made of precious stones, and if they find out that this hood is missing, they will kill me......"

"If you don't go back, it's over. Qin Mufeng said helplessly, this Nizi, since she dared to sneak out, she still wanted to go back, and ...... It's naïve, isn't it?! But this hood has two gems of the same size and delicately carved, and it is really willing to spend money!

"Leave it to me next, since he wants to take advantage of this village, then I can make his heart twist!"
