When Wu Sheng arrived, he was shocked to find a strange fox corpse lying on the ground. Its fangs were turned out, and its fur was like a hedgehog. It exuded an indescribable smell. It smelled like a fishy smell, but it was also It has some unique appeal, and I can’t help but want to step forward and smell it for a while longer.
Yongzhi squatted next to the fox corpse, frowned and looked at the corpse, and when he saw Wu Sheng, he said: "I told you, it is a demon! It is indeed a fox demon who likes to eat rabbit meat."
Wu Sheng took a breath of air and couldn't help but reach out and touch the fox demon's fur.
There are rumors about transformed monsters in the world, but they are mostly rumors and few people have ever seen them. Therefore, this is the first time Wu Sheng has witnessed the so-called transformed monsters with his own eyes. It is similar to ordinary monsters, but it is a little different. Even if it is a corpse, it still has some strange attraction.
Recalling the charm of this fox demon when he transformed into a human, and looking at the fox corpse at his feet, it is really unimaginable that the two are one.
The transformation of monsters is very special and has nothing to do with the realm of cultivation. Monsters cannot transform after reaching a certain stage of cultivation. There are many powerful monsters in the wild land, but they still appear in their true colors and act according to their animal instincts. , so under what circumstances demon beasts have the ability to transform, there has been no conclusion, at least Wu Sheng didn't know.
But the transformed monster is a type of monster after all, and with the cultivation level of this fox monster, among the monsters, it must be among the spirit monsters, so there may be monster pills remaining in the body.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Sheng did not take advantage of the demon pill, but waited for Xue Zhong and Tian Siwei who arrived after hearing the news. The two men were also extremely shocked. They looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.
"Deformed monster?"
"Demon fox?"
"Is it a fox? Or something else..."
"Let's identify him as a fox first."
"Who has ever seen a monster in disguise?"
"never seen it."
"heard about it."
"No......"
"I've heard of it too."
"what to do?"
"Seal it up and send it directly to Linzi and report it to the Academy. Don't worry, Mr. Xue will not take your credit. In addition to Tian Siwei and Brother Sun, the credit of Brother Sun Zhi will also be reported."
"Xue Xingxing's words are serious. We, who are not greedy for merit, only hope to be able to contribute to the academy, and Tian will be satisfied."
"The main credit is due to my brother Sun Zhi. He used his body as a bait to lure the demon fox out and killed it immediately. I was just helping from the side."
"I......"
"Xue Xingxing, hurry up and set off, don't wait for the fox corpse to stink."
"Yes, yes, brother Sun reminded you, by the way, you two are not injured, are you?"
"This fox demon is very eager to gain. Both of us have suffered internal injuries and need to go back for treatment."
"Okay, I'll rush to Linzi immediately."
Xue Zhong took out a bottle, which was his magic weapon for storage. He bit his finger with his mouth, dropped a drop of blood on the fox demon's body, and then put the body away.
Wu Sheng felt greatly comfortable with this action - I no longer need to harm myself.
Xue Zhong left in a hurry with the monks from Yingdu Academy. Tian Siwei handed over to Wu Sheng: "Brother Sun, this case...is it solved?"
Wu Sheng thought for a while and said: "Xue Xingxing's request is to capture the murderer. The murderer is dead. For us, the case should be considered closed. As for the origin of the demon fox, why he killed people, and what his intentions were, I think this is It's about Jixia Academy, so Xue Xingxing went to Linzi, but it has nothing to do with you and me."
Tian Siwei smiled and said, "We'll just wait for the good news about Xue Xingxing."
Although he just said that he is not greedy for merit, he is looking forward to the award from the Academy. It does not matter whether the thing is valuable or not. The key is the award document, which is related to his status and influence in Chu State.
Tian Siwei also left with Men Ding and Cheng Jia. After walking far away, you could still hear him praising the two temple officials. The two temple officials were busy around him in front of and behind his car. They looked like they were very busy. The future is bright.
After leaving Xiaodong Mountain, Zhong Liying, Huai Huajian and others also returned to the city, while Wu Sheng and Yong Zhi returned to Lumingze.
Speaking of the evil fox's methods tonight, Yong still has lingering fears.
Wu Sheng couldn't help complaining: "Speaking of Da Lang, how come the demon fox doesn't have a stomachache after eating the rabbit meat you grilled? I was waiting eagerly next to her to see if I could capture her alive, but after waiting for a long time, There's nothing wrong with me, but you said you roasted a rabbit."
Yongzhi was a little confused: "What did the doctor say? Why do you get upset after eating my roasted rabbit?"
Wu Sheng hated the iron. "You guessed that she would snatch your rabbit meat and eat it, so why didn't you put some ingredients in it?"
Yongzhi: "..."
"Elmwood lump!" Wu Sheng shook his head. There was no way to persuade such a shady person. He could only let him figure it out on his own.
Suddenly he saw Yong Zhi reaching out in front of him, with a short sword lying on his palm.
"what?"
"dagger."
"Of course I know it's a dagger, I'm asking..."
"The demon fox held it in the palm of his hand before he died."
"Hey? It's okay, Naodaro. It seems like you're not a pimple after all. This wave of operations makes my scalp numb! Not bad, not bad..."
Wu Sheng took the dagger in surprise, turned it over and looked at it several times, and suddenly said: "This sword looks familiar."
The dagger was blood red and only seven inches long. It was undoubtedly a top-grade flying sword.
He suddenly remembered that when he first arrived in Yangzhou, he visited Xiaodong Mountain several times. On one of them, he happened to see someone selling this dagger.
This dagger is in good condition, but a little weird. The shape of the sword is a bit awkward. I can’t tell why. It feels weightless in my hand. I don’t know if it’s because the materials were not handled well, or because of the focus during the refining process. Unbalanced, such a flying sword is prone to problems when used, with poor control and lack of accuracy.
It is precisely for this reason that the stall owner only offered two gold coins, but no one bought it.
Yongzhi said, the demon fox held this dagger in her hand before she died. What was she going to do with this dagger? Why does she have this dagger in her hand? How did she get this dagger?
Thinking of this, Wu Sheng said to Yongzhi: "It seems that we have to go somewhere. Let's go and find Zhong Shenyan."
Yongzhi asked: "Who is Zhong Shenyan?"
Wu Sheng replied: "A little gangster who extorts money."
Wu Sheng remembered that he had heard when chatting with Men Ding and Cheng Jia before that Zhong Shenyan lived in Guorenfang in Yangzhou City. His ancestors were once wealthy, but they fell into poverty in his generation. He relied on his good eyesight and memory. He is strong and unique in his ability to recognize people and objects, which has allowed him to carve out a niche for himself in Xiaodongshan, becoming the weakling that Men Ding and Cheng Jia rely on.
In order to seek wealth conveniently, Zhong Shenyan found a place to stay in a savage village at the western foot of Xiaodong Mountain, and lived there every day. Therefore, Wu Sheng and Yong went straight here and picked him up from the bed in the best wooden building in the east end of the village.
The sleepy Zhong Shenyan immediately broke into a cold sweat: "This...Sun Xingxing, I haven't done anything against the academy's taboos, why are you arresting me?"
Wu Sheng shouted: "Shut up, ask your question, put on your clothes...let this woman go out."
