Chapter 89: The Uninvited Guest (5)
No wonder the evil stone statue was so real, Hu Li thought to himself.
"Are you alright?"
"Oh, it's okay," Hu Carp came back to his senses, "Did you find anything from that black shadow just now?"
"I didn't find anything" Twig shrugged his shoulders, looking helpless. "But my silver needles hit him, this silver needle is not something that ordinary people can force out, if you don't have to work hard, you can only endure the pain for a few days, and wait until the demon magic on the silver needle fails, and it will naturally come out."
"Is it so powerful?" Hu Li, questioning.
Originally, Xiaozhi was still dancing and explaining the silver needle, and immediately stopped when she heard this, she continued: "This secret weapon is passed down by my father, although it can't be practiced, but at least it is also my father's self-defense trick for many years, my father has been up to hundreds of years, down to thousands of years, and your father used this trick to escape when he fought the world, and this silver needle can not only bring pain to the injured, but also have a short-term paralyzing effect, if you want me to say, ah, the black shadow is ...... now."
"Oops, stop, stop"
As he spoke, Xiaozhi's chattering nature was revealed again.
"Don't say where the black shadow is, look at what time it is" Hu Carp lay down again, anyway, now that the danger is gone, it is better to have a beauty sleep.
Twig stood aside, glanced out the window, and then lay down on the bed, as if what had happened during the night seemed inconsequential to them.
After a while, Hu Li, who couldn't fall asleep, suddenly remembered something, poked the twig with his elbow, and said, "Is our fox mound's defense so vulnerable?
But the twig didn't respond, and the sound of steady breathing followed.
"Huh, I slept pretty fast."
.............
The next day
A clansman with a hurried expression quickly walked through the huge corridor and stood in front of Hu Limen without warning.
I wanted to tell Ji Qian about last night, but the person outside the door had already been ordered to come to invite Hu Li and the others, and after they answered, they looked at each other, although they didn't know what was going on, but they were faintly aware of something.
When the clansmen ushered them into the main hall, they were greeted by an unknown corpse, dressed in dark clothes, lying under the noses of many clansmen at the moment.
Above the main hall, Ji Qian's eyes were sharp, Hu Li had never seen him look like this, and he realized the seriousness of the matter for a while.
"Where were the night watchmen last night?" Ji Qian asked the crowd.
All the clansmen, you look at me, I look at you, pushing and shouting, not answering for a long time, and finally, an elderly man quietly walked to the center of the main hall, and he said:
"Fox King, the fox mound stands in the Red Fox Mountain, this mountain is so big, even if there is an enchantment with each other, it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net, and there are many demons in this mountain, and it is normal for there to be so many people who are not subject to control."
"Oh?" Ji Qian raised his eyebrows, and then a light popped out of his hand.
The corpse in the main hall instantly shrunk into a ball, and under the loose clothing, a gray snake was pestle with its belly facing the sky.
"When did the Red Beaver Mountain have a snake charm?"
The clansmen were in an uproar at first, but when Ji Qian asked this, they were immediately speechless.
Hu Li looked at the snake, the only thing that could be connected was the attack last night, she turned her eyes to Xiaozhi, and asked quietly: "Is this snake spirit the black shadow of last night?"
Xiaozhi looked carefully, shook his head, nodded again, and said, "The breath is similar, but there are no wounds on its body."
"Wound?" Hu Li hesitated, "It's a silver needle!"
While speaking, the small branches that were originally standing on both sides of the main hall also walked to the center, and almost half of the Firefox people gathered in the entire hall, and even the second sister, who usually only knew how to make wine, also stood opposite the Hu Carp.
"Fox King, dare to ask where the corpse of this snake ghost was found?" said Twig
Ji Qian glanced at His Royal Highness's twig, and did not answer, but the red flame next to him opened his mouth: "The corpse was found in a bamboo forest outside the fox mound, and it is said that the fourth lady followed all the way last night and subdued this demon on the spot."
Hu Ying?
Following Hongyan's words, Hu Li's eyes patrolled around the main hall, and finally, his gaze stopped at the position on the left near Ji Qian.
