Two days later

The village was very calm at this time, almost all the villagers did not move outside, and during the day everyone made all the preparations, and all the harvested grain was hidden in a deep hidden place, so as to minimize the loss, so as not to cut off the back road.

The villagers knew that this afternoon was not an option, and although they had some defense, it was far from enough, and they did not want to live in fear.

Although there are only a dozen or so households in the village, except for a few individual villagers, the others are all members of several families, and there are fifty or sixty people, and nearly half of them are young and strong, and most of these half of the number are encouraged and trained by the village chief, and gradually form a small tenacious team.

They relied on that special tool, which was specially modified by the village chief, and that material was used to the fullest.

Hu Li completely underestimated the village chief's grandfather, thinking that he was just a kind and elderly old man, but he didn't expect to have such a talent. No wonder the rat spirits get caught.

It was already dusk, and the group of young and strong men had gathered in the village chief's courtyard, with bows and arrows, iron nets, and all kinds of strangely shaped weapons in their hands.

Revolution is the means of survival, Hu Li deeply understands this at the moment, and instead of enduring the beating, it is better to find an opportunity to fight back.

"The female ghost is coming tonight, to be honest, I'm not interested in the war between them at all" The window opened a crack, and Hu Li stood by the window, carefully examining everything in the yard.

"I just want to find Erha and get the scroll back" Hu Li gently closed the window again, and she walked to the table and sat down.

"Why don't I want to, that's what our fox king left us, what if there is a secret of our fire fox clan on it?If we are accidentally spied on, wouldn't we be guilty" Xiao Zhi, who was sitting opposite Hu Li, said talkatively, now she is a little desperate, she knows where the scroll is, but there is no way to take it out.

Not to mention anything else, just thinking that it was Ji Qian's stuff, Xiaozhi felt very guilty.

"Don't forget, we have a move tonight, and when the female ghost comes, we'll go and make peace with the rat spirit, and he says he might help us get the scroll," Hu Li said.

To be honest, there is no way to even twigs, what can a little mouse spirit do? She was a little dazed.

But try everything, and even if it doesn't work out, at least know that the scroll is safe.

As dusk approached and the sky darkened, Hu Carp and Twig waited quietly in the house, and were instructed by the village chief to stay here, and not to go out of the door, no matter what sound they heard.

A few more hours passed, and with the arrival of the hour, something changed outside the house.

Just like in horror movies, when the ghost will appear, it will exude a strong sense of fear, the reflection of the tree trunk on the ground shakes wildly, and the air around it is a little cold.

Hu Li waited quietly, as long as there was movement, or shouting, she and Xiaozhi would wait for the opportunity to go out.

Sure enough, before he could wait a moment, there was a cacophony of noises outside, and I don't know if it was the wind or something, the rubble on the beams, and the water tank in the distance, all came with the sound of cracking, and that sound was getting closer and closer, closer and closer to here.

"Here they are"

In the courtyard, there was a voice that was not loud or small.

"It's okay, it's full of traps around here, those little demons can't help us, just pay a little attention to the female ghost, as soon as they get close, we will rush out, we don't want to take down the female ghost, just let her know that we are not easy to mess with"

This time, it was the village chief who spoke, and although he was very old, his voice was clear and powerful.

When Hu Li heard these words, he compared them with the slogan of killing the enemy who was charging into battle, and it was like a retreat.

But as soon as the voice fell, there was a real change outside, and then, I heard the sound of these people pushing the door out.

"Let's go," Hu Carp pushed the twig.

And the twig slipped out quietly, the villagers all turned their backs to them and seemed to be confronting those little demons, this is just a good opportunity, as long as you are a little away from the wires that can be seen everywhere, the twig's demonic power will not be unable to use, in that case, but it will be in the middle of the minute.

Everything was going smoothly, and after leaving this area, Hu Carp and Xiaozhi immediately flew to the place agreed with the rat spirit.

After seeing the rat spirit, they quickly approached the waterfall again.

"We have to hurry, otherwise, the female ghost will find out that I am not there, and I will not be able to eat and walk around then," the rat spirit said to Hu Li.

"Got it, if you can really help us with this, we will definitely repay you," Hu said.

"No, you've saved my life, I'm repaying the favor now, just make sure I can go back without being discovered by the female ghost," said the rat spirit.

It seems that he is quite content, and yesterday he said that he would help solve the female ghost, but he didn't expect her and Xiaozhi, after all, he couldn't even take out the scroll, what ability did he have to catch the female ghost? Thinking like this, Hu Li couldn't help but pout.

Soon, they arrived at the waterfall where they had come before.

The water of the waterfall was much weaker than before, and the twigs parted the water, and the three of them flew in.

The cave was still damp, and the environment inside was like a sewer, cold and smelly.

"This time, you can't attack that wall easily, or you'll get into trouble again."

They stopped, still feeling the presence of the transparent wall in front of them.

"That's right, it's the smell of a female ghost," the rat spirit said with certainty, his nose moved.

"Then do you have any way to get the scroll inside? as long as you attack here, it will release a strong poisonous gas" Xiaozhi said resentfully, at this time she hated herself the most for being powerless, obviously the scroll was in front of her, but she could only look at it.

"I'll see," he said, and the rat spirit lay on the ground.

He sniffed the ground carefully, and looked and looked, up and down, and looked at it all, until he stopped at the top left of the hole.

I saw his body shrink and turn into a rat the size of a palm, and then he began to burrow.

Seeing this scene, Hu Carp suddenly realized, and sure enough, it confirmed the sentence: dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the cubs of mice will make holes.

The speed of the rat spirit was surprisingly fast, and the carp and twigs surrounded it, and the hole was very deep, and it had changed direction.

It didn't take long for the sound of him burrowing through the wall, and in a few moments, the rat spirit's head came out of the hole, his little hand clutching the scroll.

Twig immediately took the scroll to check if the seal on it had been broken, and only after confirming that there was no damage did he breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much" Hu Lili thanked the rat spirit who had turned back into a humanoid rat head, but what he didn't expect was that he underestimated him.

But now was not the time for ink, and they had to hurry back.

Then, they disappeared into this waterfall.
