Xing Rilong was a suspicious and cautious person. Although he showed disdain for Pei Laoliu's words on the surface at this moment, he was actually very vigilant in his heart.
Several sergeants also sensed that something was wrong, and they all raised their spears levelly and slowly moved closer step by step.
"Old bear? Old bear?"
Some people even made a sound, trying to call their comrades in front of them.
However, the two people seemed to have been cast a restraining spell, just standing there, motionless and unresponsive.
Several city guards couldn't help but sweat on their foreheads when they saw such a strange scene.
They thought of all the strange incidents that had happened in the city recently, and secretly thought that they might have been hit by something evil this time.
Pei Laoliu also looked at them intently.
The monster was very cunning. Not only did it huddle behind the box, it also used the city guards to block the way between it and it. The two sides always maintained a certain obstruction.
At this moment, the soldiers were already within five meters of the box.
Immediately, Xing Rilong found that those people suddenly put down their spears, walked over without any pause, and stood beside the two people before them, motionless.
The whole process looked as if they had gone there specially to be punished, which made him, the captain, feel a little scared.
"You, what on earth are you doing..."
Although he was still reluctant to admit it, the fear in his eyes had already turned into reality.
What those soldiers could think of, he could also think of.
In recent times, many strange things have happened in the city, and several people have disappeared in almost every case. If the city lord hadn't ordered the news to be blocked, I'm afraid the whole city would have been under martial law by this time.
In fact, the city lord has already made plans in this regard, and the time given to them to solve the case is coming soon. If they still don't investigate clearly, the city may really be closed.
Xing Rilong felt cold sweat break out from his back when he thought of the city lord's methods.
This is also the reason why he personally led the team to appear at Qian's house.
Now he doesn't want to let go of any clues in the city.
"Hey, I already told you that the monster is behind you, but you just don't listen!"
Pei Laoliu sighed and said angrily:
"It's okay now. Your people are trapped by it. If I want to deal with it now, my hands will be tied up and it will cause me so much trouble for nothing!"
"Monster...monster!?"
Unexpectedly, Xing Rilong became excited after hearing this.
He stared intently at the people not far away, feeling that he should have found the real culprit this time, at least it would be better than returning empty-handed.
"Someone is coming!"
His eyes became cold and he shouted loudly to the outside. At the same time, his eyes were fixed on the box.
"Hmph, I don't care whether you are a monster or a heretic. In this city of Hanyue, you will not be allowed to be presumptuous! Come out and follow me back to see the city lord and honestly explain what you have done. , otherwise you will suffer a lot!"
He originally just said this casually, just to delay it, but he didn't expect those people opposite him to react at this moment.
The soldiers all turned around and faced Liu Ye and others.
All of these people's faces were pale, their eyes rolled up, and they looked like they had lost consciousness.
I saw one of them suddenly squirmed his mouth twice, then slowly opened his mouth and said in a sharp and harsh voice:
"You...all...#¥#@!%..."
His words were inaudible later on, and only a series of chirping-like sounds could be heard, as if the monster was not very good at speaking human language.
The sudden words of the soldiers over there and the strange looks on their faces made Xing Rilong, who was about to take action, stop abruptly.
The same was true for the new subordinates who came around. They were all frightened by the strange behavior of their companions.
"Evil! Why don't you stop!"
At this time, Mr. Liu suddenly stood up with a loud shout.
"Obstacle! Don't think that you have a chance of winning by casting a enchantment formation and hiding behind those people! If you wait until my flying sword is unsheathed, you will definitely end up with your body and body destroyed!"
Everyone looked at him when they heard this. Although everyone looked surprised and puzzled, at this time, no one would interrupt.
The controlled soldier also turned his head in the direction of Pei Laoliu, and his sharp, baby-like voice sounded again:
"You...are all in the same group...you...all deserve to die...!!"
The expression on Master Liu's face turned cold, and the flying sword behind his back was about to move, making a buzzing sound.
At his feet, Dahei also bared his teeth, looking like he was ready to attack at any moment.
However, Mr. Liu did not take action immediately. At this time, he remembered some information he had learned, and then asked:
"You monster, let me ask you, did you commit the Qian family's murder? Also, why did you bring these two children here!?"
Xing Rilong's eyes lit up and he looked at the soldier with an expression of interest.
"Quack...quack..."
The soldier suddenly let out a few strange laughs, and then said:
"The murder of the Qian family... was of course done by me! The Orion's skin... was manipulated by me... to peel it off bit by bit! It's a pity... that it was only half of it... and it hurt him to death... …”
"you……!!"
Pei Laoliu's eyes froze. Even though he had guessed the whole story, he still couldn't help but feel angry when he heard what the other party said.
"You evil beast! How dare you commit such a crime in broad daylight, and your methods are so cruel. Are you really not afraid of death!?"
"fear death……?"
On the other side of the box, another soldier spoke:
"I'm just... here to take revenge!"
The monster let out a scream, and its voice became smoother.
"Then Qian Song went hunting in the mountains and killed five members of my family! My father and mother were shot to death by one of his arrows! My two sisters were wiped on the neck by him with a knife! My brother was not even dead, he ripped him alive Skin!"
His voice became shriller and louder, and in the end, several soldiers around him spoke together and shouted:
"Go and take a look at the cabinet in his Qian family's house. The skins of my family of five are still hanging there!!"
"So I want to kill them all and let them taste the feeling of being skinned alive! Did I do something wrong!!?"
"Now...it's just the first one...and his two children, and his wife! I want them to be buried with my family!!"
The fox demon's voice was sharp and harsh, like the blood of a cuckoo, making people feel uneasy.
Pei Laoliu also fell silent at this time.
"Why……"
In fact, he had already guessed the real reason why the other party killed Qian Song, but after hearing the monster's confession with his own ears, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It's just that he sighed, but if he just watched this vixen killing people in front of him, it would be impossible.
"Demon fox, since you are here for revenge, you should understand that the wrongdoer deserves his debt! Now that the murderer has been killed by you, why should you be killed again!? These two children and Mrs. Qian are innocent. They didn't kill your family, if you killed them too, how would that be any different from Qian Song?"
"..."
Over there, the soldiers suddenly fell silent, seeming to be thinking about what Pei Laoliu had just said.
After a while, they heard another sharp cry and said:
"Don't even think about tricking me! You and them are all in the same group! He killed my family! I want his family to pay for it with my life!!"
After the fox demon finished speaking, all the soldiers raised their spears and, contrary to their previous slow movements, stabbed towards Pei Laoliu quickly.
"Senior, please show mercy!"
Behind him, Xing Rilong shouted and rushed forward, fearing that Pei Laoliu would kill them all in one go.
These people are all his subordinates. If they all die here, then he, the captain, may be done for.
"Senior, please keep your hands! Leave this to me!"
Xing Rilong drew out his sword and rushed into the middle of the city guards with a few ups and downs.
The sword in his hand was flying, and he actually picked off the spear heads of those people one by one.
"Roar!!"
The soldiers lost their weapons, but they did not stop there. Then they opened their mouths and pounced on them like wild beasts.
However, Xing Rilong's martial arts skills were also impressive. He moved his body from side to side and struck out a palm from time to time. Those who were hit by the palm fell to the ground, making it difficult for him to pose a threat.
In just a few moments, the controlled soldiers were all reduced to combat effectiveness and lay on the ground unconscious.
"Demon fox! Come out and die!"
Xing Rilong was so excited that he shouted directly at the demon fox on the other side of the box.
"嘤嘤!!"
Two animal sounds like babies crying sounded, which stung the former's ears and he quickly raised his hands to cover his ears.
Immediately, a wave of dark energy erupted, and an invisible energy filled the surrounding air, covering everyone in the warehouse.
"Uh, uh..."
Xing Rilong only struggled slightly for two seconds before falling to the ground as if he was exhausted.
The same goes for the soldiers he brought. They were all controlled by the strange methods used by the demon fox in an instant.
Pei Laoliu secretly said something bad, knowing that he had to take action immediately. If all these people were to rush up in one fell swoop, it would be difficult for him to guarantee that innocent people would not be harmed.
Suppressing the feeling of drowsiness in his brain, Master Liu raised his hand and was about to execute a sword control technique.
However, there is a figure faster than him, it is Dahei!
Dahei's figure was like electricity, turning into a black shadow and rushing behind the box.
"嘤嘤!!"
A scream sounded out, but it was from the fox demon.
Then, Pei Laoliu saw two figures, one black and one white, smashing through the box and rushing out. They were entangled and torn together, constantly making roars of beasts.
At this time, Master Liu finally saw the true face of the demon fox in Lushan. It turned out to be a white fox the size of a domestic dog.
Looking at this size, it is almost the same size as Zhang Xiaoman's Jinbao, which weighs only about ten kilograms.
Although this fox knows some sorcery that can confuse people's minds, its melee combat ability is much inferior. At this moment, fighting with Dahei, it is obviously suppressed, and it can be said that it has no power to fight back.
After a while, the floor of the warehouse was covered with white hairs, all of which were torn off by Dahei.
"嘤嘤!!"
The fox demon screamed, trying to summon the soldiers he had previously controlled to come to help.
However, Dahei was not a vegetarian, and he would not let go, so that he had no time to cast his magic.
"Woooooooo..."
Finally, the fox lost its strength and was bitten by Dahei, unable to move anymore.
Pei Laoliu looked at the people around him and saw that they had all fallen to the ground and returned to normal, then he said:
"Okay, Dahei, relax."
Upon hearing this, the latter immediately relaxed his mouth and stood aside.
The fox demon was covered in bruises at the moment, and its white hair was covered with red blood stains. It just lay on the ground, looking at Pei Laoliu with dull eyes.
"Buzz~"
The sound of the Shanhe Sword swinging was heard. Liu Ye looked at it with his long sword in his hand, but did not stab it immediately.
Seeing the eyes of the little white fox on the ground, he thought of the big black snake in Dongyuan Village.
That big snake also took revenge in the past.
Its owner died tragically in the mountains because the villagers refused to take him in. For it, it was these people who killed its owner.
When to those villagers, many of the young people who died were just children at the time, what else could they know? Aren't they innocent?
There is actually no right or wrong in this matter, there is only a difference in the positions of both parties.
Just like Qian Song who was skinned, he just went up to the mountains to hunt in order to feed his children.
The family that killed the fox was nothing more than the law of nature.
After all, in the eyes of humans, they are just animals.
But for the little fox, even if those foxes have not opened their spiritual intelligence, they are still his family.
There is nothing wrong with the fox coming here to take revenge.
"Why……"
Liu Ye sighed and slowly took back the Shanhe Sword in his hand.
After hearing about the fox, he felt quite sympathetic towards it.
Although he is a human being, this fox demon is not an ordinary beast, but a spiritual beast that has opened up its spiritual intelligence and can communicate with people.
"Fox demon, let me ask you, at this point, are you still stubborn?"
Liu Ye said to it.
He knew that the other party could understand, but he had lost control of the puppet and could not speak.
The little white fox made no move and just looked at him, not knowing whether he was unwilling to respond or because he really had no strength and couldn't do it.
"Fox demon, I know you hate Qian Song so much. He killed your whole family and peeled off their furs. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to spare him."
"It's just that Qian Song's family didn't know about this. They are just as innocent as your dead relatives."
"I don't care if you kill Qian Song to avenge your family. But you can't touch his family. If you implicate your anger on them, what's the difference between you and Qian Song?"
"I miss your cultivation endlessly, and I don't want to take your life, but as a human being, I can't just sit back and watch you slaughter my people. If this continues, you will also fall into the devil's path, so why bother?"
He thought for a while, then took out a four-leaf flower from his pocket, brought it to the demon fox's mouth, and said:
"Eat it and you will get better. From now on, you can stay with me and practice."
