After Li Chuan finished reading a paragraph, he stopped, looked at the old woman and said, "Yes, it's just that the words in this book seem to be ancient seal scripts. There are many that I don't recognize. I can only try to read them a few times to see if I can I can’t understand its meaning.”
The old woman stared at him for a long time and asked again: "Can you really understand?"
Li Chuan put the book away and said frankly: "Now I can only understand 10% or 20%. When I get home, I will find out the meaning of each word. If I read it a few more times, I will probably understand it all." .”
"After all, Master said, read it a hundred times and the meaning will be apparent to you."
The old woman nodded invisibly.
Li Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. If the fox believed what he said, it would be able to delay it for a while, and maybe it could help him get rid of the other side and send him home.
When he gets home, he will use the excuse of looking for information and study everywhere, and there will always be a chance to escape.
But he didn't expect that the next second, the old woman's face suddenly enlarged in front of him. In the firelight, the deep and shallow wrinkles wriggled like worms; red hairs popped out one by one.
Gong Er noticed something was wrong and flew over. The old woman looked over and saw Gong Er falling to the ground with his head raised.
Chicken feathers fell to the ground
A stream of fragrant and smelly heat rolled over Li Chuan's face.
The fox's mouth opened and closed.
The old woman's voice echoed, constantly beating against his eardrums.
——Tell me...tell me...
——What is written in the book...
--What……
Li Chuan heard his own voice, mechanical and dull, jumping out word by word.
"Pattern Sutra..."
As soon as he said the title of the book, he saw a golden light coming out of his body and hitting the old woman against the wall.
Snapped.
The fox appears.
A pair of fox eyes were still staring at Li Chuan.
The rain is still falling.
Thunder and fire were intertwined.
Li Chuan stood up, ran two steps outside, then turned back, grabbed Gong Er, and rushed out of the temple.
If you don't take Gong Er with you, Pang San will definitely not take him away.
He was a weak scholar, and in this kind of weather, he couldn't run very far on his own.
The three men who were soaking in the water had also noticed the abnormality in the temple, and when they saw their appearance, they immediately became larger.
Li Chuan jumped on the crab shell, holding the crab's tentacles with one hand and holding Gong Er with the other, and said, "Hurry up!"
The thunder continued.
The rain soaked his hair and clothes, and Li Chuan felt the cock in his hand move.
The chicken's neck trembled, its eyes blinked and opened, and then its drooping comb stood up again.
The feathers were soaked.
After figuring out the current situation, Gonger turned his head and looked back.
Boom!
Silver snakes were flying, and in the turbulent sea of trees, a red-furred fox leaped into the air, kicking its hind feet with its front feet, stepping on the sound of thunder, and rushed towards their direction.
The other three also started to speed up.
Li Chuan discovered that the fox did not run as fast as the others, but every time it ran for more than ten steps, it would leap forward, leaping forward several meters at a time.
Gradually the distance became closer.
The rain blurred Li Chuan's vision, and everything he saw became distorted.
Lightning flashed.
The bright red fur, the sharp black claws, and the flat wound of the broken ear were combined by the rain curtain into a bizarre scene, which reflected in Li Chuan's eyes, getting closer and bigger.
He wanted to wipe the rain off his face, but he couldn't spare his hands.
At this time, Gong Er moved again, and Li Chuan felt a strong force slap on his chest, pushing him into the air.
When he fell, he saw Male Two flying up with his wings wide open and flying towards the fox, while Male Three, at some unknown moment, changed into its original size and grabbed Male Two's chicken claws.
boom!
Li Chuan fell to the ground.
Feeling cold all over.
The ground had already been soaked by the rain and was muddy. Li Chuan put his hands on the ground and panted violently. His stomach was churning, and he vomited it out with a "wow" sound. The undigested meat cakes were mixed with gastric juices and fell into the muddy water, exuding an unpleasant smell.
On the other side, Gong Er and Pang San were attacking the fox together.
Gong Er pounced and slapped the fox in the face, turned around quickly, and grabbed the fox on the back of the neck. While beating the fox's head fiercely and quickly with his two wings, he pecked the Tianling Gai fiercely with his beak.
Pang San hid behind Gong Er. His body did not get bigger. His eight legs penetrated deeply into the fox's fur to stabilize his body. His two large pincers became as big as a basin and bit the fox's two limbs tightly. Forelimbs only.
At this time, Li Chuan spit out the last two sips of the sour water and felt a little better. After wiping his face, he saw the fox shaking his head several times, but did not shake the male and the third one away.
Then the fox stood up on its hind legs, raised its upper body, and made a squealing sound.
Boom!
A huge black fox shadow seemed to rise behind the fox. Then, a fierce rooster crow was heard. The second male and the third male were bounced away. The fox reached back with its paws and grabbed one of the male two's legs. One wing, and the other three fell like rags not far in front of Li Chuan.
The wipers were swishing down.
Li Chuan saw that the crab shells on the third side were cracked in the middle, with greenish-yellow mucus oozing out. One of the pincers had fallen off, and the crab legs were twisted into strange shapes.
Gong Er, who fell into the hands of the fox, was even more miserable. His neck was crooked and most of his wings were bald. However, his momentum was still undiminished. He looked at the opportunity and pecked at the fox's body.
Li Chuan felt that the fox seemed to glance at him.
His heart tightened.
He knew that after finishing Gong Er, he would be next.
Li Chuan didn't want to die.
He doesn't want to die here.
My whole body was soaked, my clothes stuck to my body, and I felt heavy even when I moved.
He slowly moved to Pang San.
"The fox wants the book I found by the stream."
His voice was hoarse and there was a taste of blood in his throat.
Cold rain flowed down from his forehead and fell on his hands, which he clenched.
"It can't read."
"You run with me, it will let Brother Gong go."
"There is a cliff not far away. I want to give it a try."
The other three were motionless.
When Li Chuan thought Pang San had passed out, the two crab eyes suddenly moved, and then Pang San's body grew larger again.
Li Chuan tried his best to sit on the crab shell and held the book in his hands.
One person and one crab quickly passed by the fox.
"Fox, the scholar is here!"
Sure enough, as Li Chuan said, when the fox saw it, he immediately threw away Gong Er and chased after Pang San.
Male Er fell to the ground crookedly.
The next three were injured, and the wounds on the crab shells continued to expand. Li Chuan seemed to be able to hear the cracking sound of the shells cracking.
But he seemed to be faster than before.
Li Chuan turned around and watched the fox's movements without blinking.
Every time the fox jumps, its body will shake slightly.
"Turn left." Li Chuan said.
The third person didn't hesitate and immediately turned left.
