Chapter 26: A bad start
Seeing Bai Lu, the demon exterminator duo had to pause.
After several inquiries, Fang knew that Bai Lu had answered the call from the second aunt, and he was not worried that they would follow.
Although I feel helpless, but people are also kind, and no one will say much if I reproach a few words.
I wanted to send Bai Lu away first, and then the two of them went into the cave to get rid of the demon. But first, Bai Lu resolutely refused, and second, it would take too much time to walk back. After discussing with Bai Shuai, Shanhe decided to test the cave first.
If the monster can be easily handled, then take action to get rid of it. If it was too tricky, the three of them immediately retreated. After sending Bai Lu away, he will consider the matter of eliminating the demon. Anyway, there is a small bracelet, and the demon fox will definitely not be able to run.
With a decision, the three of them walked towards the cave step by step.
Cultivating as the highest mountain and river takes the lead, Bai Lu is in the middle, and Bai Shuai is at the bottom.
The division of labor between the three is also very clear: Shanhe mainly deals with demon beasts, Bai Lu only considers self-protection, and Bai Shuai is responsible for protecting Bai Lu. Only when it is absolutely safe to do so, you can assist Shanhe in killing demon beasts.
The cave where the two-tailed fox chooses to hide is tall, large and deep.
The cave was pitch black, and without the light of a flashlight, they couldn't move an inch.
From time to time, the bright light of the flashlight will disturb the dormant bats hanging upside down on the roof of the cave, and every once in a while, a bat will fly out with crackling wings.
The pampered Bai Lu has never seen such a world, and she is scared and screams every time. As long as the demon fox was not born deaf, he must have heard it and exposed their whereabouts.
But the matter has come to this, and Shanhe and Bai Shuai are powerless to stop it, so they can't seal Bai Lu's mouth with duct tape, right?
After walking for another three or five minutes, the group smelled a unique smell of demon foxes, indicating that they were very close.
As soon as they turned the corner, the three of them stepped into a relatively open space, and a huge blood-red phantom suddenly appeared out of nowhere, rushing towards them without warning.
"Be careful!"
Shanhe, who was the first to discover the enemy's situation, shouted, and subconsciously dodged sideways.
However, as soon as he finished dodging, he remembered that it was Bai Lu who was standing behind him, who was powerless!
So, he immediately turned his head, stretched out his big hand, and pushed Bai Lu aside before the red shadow approached.
However, what Shanhe didn't expect was that after the red shadow passed through himself and Bai Lu, it did not return, but attacked directly towards Bai Shuai, who was standing at the end.
I saw that the demon fox's front paws burst violently and pressed firmly on Bai Shuai's chest. Then a big fluffy tail was raised high, and the long red tail hair suddenly cracked seven or eight gaps, like a blooming demon flower, and "swallowed" Bai Shuai's upper body in one bite!
Subsequently, Bai Shuai's bare legs struggled for a few times before he stopped moving and lost consciousness.
In just one face, Bai Shuai was taken down by the demon fox, and no one expected such a start.
In fact, the demon fox's blow just now was not fast, and with Bai Shuai's cultivation, he should be able to dodge.
However, due to the suddenness of the incident and the lack of light, coupled with Bai Shuai's own lack of actual combat experience, the moment he encountered the enemy's attack, he was still a little panicked, and after a little hesitation, he was taken down by the demon fox in one fell swoop, becoming a "trophy" in the hands of the demon beast.
The first time he saw this kind of monster-like behemoth, although Bai Lu was mentally prepared, he was still stupidly frightened in place, his mouth trembled slightly, and he couldn't say a word.
Until he saw his younger brother, who was wrapped in the tail of the demon fox with his head and body, bad thoughts instantly welled up in his mind, and he cried out in a crying voice:
"Shuai Shuai! Shuai Shuai! Shanhe, what's wrong with him? Save my brother!"
Seeing that Bai Shuai was "devoured" by the demon tail, Shanhe was also shocked and angry, and was just about to come to the rescue, but he heard Xiao Bang suddenly say in his mind:
"Master, don't panic! Bai Shuai is fine, he just fell into an illusion and lost consciousness. ”
"Really, you didn't lie to me?"
"Don't worry, I'll tell you when he's dying. A cultivator's life is very delicious, and it would be a shame not to use it to recharge......"
"When are you, why are you still talking about this!" Hearing this, Shanhe immediately said angrily.
"Okay, okay, I won't say it. However, I really didn't lie to you, Bai Shuai just fell into an illusion, and there is no danger to his life for the time being, don't be impulsive!"
Seeing that Xiao Bang said seriously, Shanhe believed it a little, and asked again:
"Then how can you save him?"
"Defeat the Demon Fox and you'll recover. However, you have to be careful of the fox demon's tail, which is its strongest weapon for performing illusions. Once you get entangled in it, no one can save you anymore!"
After communicating with Xiao Bang, Shanhe briefly told Bai Lu about the situation. Knowing that her brother was not in danger for the time being, Bai Lu calmed down.
A big general at the beginning, plus there is an oil bottle to take care of, Shanhe thinks about it!
But Bai Shuai was captured, and he couldn't abandon it, he had to win this difficult battle.
After placing Bai Lu a little farther away, Shanhe took a deep breath and took a big stride towards the blood-red giant demon fox.
The battle of one man and one fox has officially begun.
The mountains and rivers are like fists like meteors and feet like diamonds, mercilessly chasing the demon fox.
After just a few rounds, Shanhe felt that the demon fox's combat ability was indeed not strong. Except for its speed, it is weak in other aspects, far from the blue-maned beast it encountered last week.
But this guy is extremely cunning, and he doesn't have any direct contact with the mountains and rivers at all, and uses his agile body to flee in all directions.
A few times when there was nowhere to escape, it flicked its big tail and lifted Bai Shuai's body in front of it as a shield, making Shanhe extremely depressed. I didn't dare to fight, I couldn't avoid it, so I could only withdraw my iron fist aggrievedly.
That's it, more than ten minutes have passed, and the mountains and rivers are already sweating profusely. But after so long, he didn't even touch the demon fox, and his face was full of bitterness.
Just when he thought that this kind of scene would last for a long time, the red-blooded two-tailed fox suddenly took the initiative to change its course!
At the moment of avoiding the mountains and rivers, it accelerated violently and rushed in a straight line towards Bailu in the distance. Since it couldn't fight the mountains and rivers, it simply changed its target and ran towards the "soft persimmon".
Shanhe secretly said "not good", and ran towards Bai Lu after him.
Fortunately, under the full force of the mountains and rivers, the speed was slightly faster than the demon fox, and he blocked in front of Bai Lu one step ahead.
The demon fox seemed to have expected this move for a long time, and jumped over the heads of Shanhe and Bai Lu with a slight jump. At the same time, its other fox tail also fell from the sky and grabbed Bai Lu.
Of course, Shanhe can't let the fox demon succeed, and if he lets it take a hostage again, he will have nothing to play at all.
So, at the moment when the foxtail "opened its mouth", Shanhe gently pushed Bai Lu out of the danger area.
However, to his surprise, the big tail of the demon fox did not move with Bai Lu, but suddenly turned around and flew straight towards him!
This frightened Shanhe, and he knew that he might have fallen for a plan.
But at this moment, he couldn't hide, so he could only stretch out his hands and desperately resist the fluffy "big mouth".
It's a pity that in front of the huge fox tail, Shanhe's move is no different from a mantis arm as a car, and the fist hit the soft hair, just like hitting the air, which is ineffective!
In just a few seconds, he was wrapped in countless tail hairs, his eyes were black, and he fell asleep dizzily.
