Chapter 36: Seeking the Fox (1)

Yue Zhuo knew that telling these knowledge to these mountain and wild horsemen was also playing the piano to the cow, after all, they only knew how to chop wood and hunt all day long, and drink to call the girls.

But he still talked to himself, hoping that they would listen to it a little bit.

"The fox is a kind of spiritual thing, and it is mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period that there is a nine-tailed fox. And the Queen Mother of the West of Kunlun Wonderland engraved the nine-tailed fox, the white rabbit and the three-legged golden black next to the throne to show auspiciousness. ”

Yuezhuo put his hands behind his back, looking like a true immortal master.

"Before the Han and Tang dynasties, the fox was a symbol of auspiciousness. If a person sees a fox, it means that there will be happy events in his family, and his children and grandchildren will be prosperous and full of good fortune. ”

Su Yan stepped forward, and then Yuezhuo's words were eloquently talked.

Yuezhuo frowned, dissatisfied with his way of stealing the limelight. Obviously, I started talking about it first.

Although Su Yan's kid has not done this once or twice, and it is not a matter of a day or two for him to be unhappy. If it weren't for the fact that their master and apprentice couldn't abuse spells when they went down the mountain, they couldn't spend their money casually, and they wouldn't have relied on this rich man.

Yuezhuo comforted himself and said, endure, can only endure, who made him a walking money bag?

And then for some reason, even now, the image of the fox is declining more and more, as if someone deliberately smeared it. Actually, it's auspicious. Yuezhuo sighed.

Su Yan also nodded approvingly.

And those hunters, although they listened carefully to what they called the "immortal master", but after listening to it for a long time, they didn't hear a reason. It's just that those two words "auspicious" caused their dissatisfaction.

One of them stood up and said confidently, "If it's really auspicious, why do you want to kill Ah Liang?"

Yuezhuo was speechless for a while, thought for a while, and said, "Because it was people who harmed them first." ”

Dissatisfaction exists all the time in this world, such as dissatisfaction between humans and demons, dissatisfaction between demons and demons, and dissatisfaction between people.

On that day, several hunters saw with their own eyes the tragic death of Ah Liang and the scene of the moon burning the fox. Yuezhuo became the savior of Taoyuan Village in an instant. Naturally, some people are grateful, and some people are secretly unhappy, but they are also outsiders, how can they easily become the most important person in the village.

So, waiting for the opportunity, I had long wanted to take him into an army.

Most of the Orions still agreed with the Moon Scorching Immortal Master's statement, but one person stood up and said something, and they also became crowded.

The man continued, "The Immortal Master's words are wrong. Since ancient times, people hunt and eat it, and animals will also eat people, which is the reincarnation of heaven and the normal principle. ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

"According to what the immortal master said, if a person doesn't hurt it, won't it take the initiative to hurt people?"

The man said a word, and Master Yuezhuo was speechless. Indeed, Yue Zhuo didn't dare to guarantee that if mortals didn't hurt living beings and spirits, then those living beings wouldn't take the initiative to attack mortals.

Wait, Yuezhuo felt that something was wrong. was supposed to persuade them to be good, but they were almost persuaded by him.

Yuezhuo looked at the man again, he looked like an ordinary hunter, tall and mighty, muscular, wearing a coarse linen sleeveless dark vest, and his dark face still had some undried sweat stains.

With such a traditional appearance of a mountain and wild horseman, is it possible, have you ever studied?

Everyone thought that the man was polite, so they continued to carry their booty, passed through the gap between the three who were speechless, and walked straight in the direction of the village.

The three of them looked at the distant backs of everyone, as if something was stuck in their throats, and it was difficult to swallow.

No, noβ€”

Yue Zhuo counted carefully, just now, the Orions should have eleven people.

... Two...... Three......

Yuezhuo counted intently, Hongli and Su Yan stepped forward, and saw him muttering to himself, not knowing what he was doing.

"Master....."

Hongli opened her mouth, and seeing that Master Yuezhuo was a little different from the past, she asked, "What?"

"No, there were eleven people just now, but now there are only ten. ”

Yuezhuo's pupils dilated, and his face was a little discolored.

Su Yan also counted, and sure enough, there were only ten people.

"Could it be that Fang just counted wrong?" Su Yan said.

Hongli hurriedly answered, "No, I also clearly remember that there are a total of eleven hunters in that group." For when they came, each man had a fox in his hand. There are eleven foxes in total, and now.... You count again. ”

After listening to Hongli, Su Yan counted again, there were eleven foxes, and there were only ten people in the hunters.

Su Yan felt creepy, it couldn't be ..... Did you encounter a ghost in broad daylight?

In broad daylight, in full view of everyone, do ghosts dare to act arbitrarily in the world?

Yuezhuo caught his cowardice and said sarcastically, "Of course it's not a ghost, I'm afraid it's another creature." ”

It's just that the mana of this creature is too strong, and it comes and goes without a trace, and I don't know what it is. What is the purpose of mixing in the crowd and misguiding the villagers?

Yuezhuo thought that if his spiritual power was still enough at this time, he would not let it escape so easily.

And those Orions are all dressed similarly, and even if they are identified one by one, they may not be able to identify which one is missing.

The hunters picked one fox one after another and took it home, and in the end, there were two left.

When he saw that there were still two red foxes left in the net, he thought that one of them was in a hurry, and he forgot to bring his prey back.

He snuck and quickly pulled the net and ran away without a trace.

Oh no, now, the lives of these foxes can't be saved.

Hongli once again begged Master Yuezhuo with tears in her eyes to save them.

I only heard Su Yan say in a deep voice, "I'll go with you." ”

A trace of hostility flashed in Yuezhuo's eyes, and he didn't refuse to agree to his apprentice, every time he let this kid take the lead.

So, the three of them fought to prevent these foxes from becoming a delicacy before the sun set.

Knocking on the door one by one, Taoyuan Village is not large, but it is densely populated, and there are still quite a lot of households. It was almost dusk, and more than half of the residents had not yet inquired about the past, and had not found the homes of the ten hunters.

The three of them decided to go separately, Yuezhuo went to the northwest, Suyan to the south, and Hongli to the east.

Knock Knock –

A woman opened the door, and when she saw that it was a strange man, she immediately closed the door.

Before Su Yan could ask, he ate the closed door.

Knock Knock –

It was a man who opened the door, and when he saw that the person who came was the Yuezhuo Immortal Master, he greeted him with a respectful smile, "Immortal Master, is there something wrong?"

Yuezhuo saw that he was dressed as a hunter, so he said, "Come and ask for a fox." ”

"Thisβ€”" The man hesitated. Then he entered the house and came out with a long-tailed green fox. The long-tailed green fox was beaten half to death, and was already dying, and was lifted upside down in the air, not moving.

I only heard the Orion smile and said, "Immortal Master, what you just said, although it is reasonable, but I think there are some things I can't do. As hunters, we live by hunting, and if we don't hunt foxes and wild beasts and birds in the future, as you said, then we will all have to drink the northwest wind. ”

As soon as the words fell, a slight west wind blew, which happened to be the scene at this time.

Yuezhuo frowned, with a gloomy face, and lowered her voice, "Do you know, in Manyuan Village next door, those villagers ate fox meat and died. ”

The wind gusted, and the hunter suddenly felt cold, and subconsciously hugged his strong arms, his chapped lips trembled, and his big yellow teeth creaked.

"And then ......"

He asked.

Yuezhuo's face was closer, his eyes blazing but glowing with a resentful light.

"It's all ghosts!"

He suddenly yelled at Orion, who was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud.
