Chapter 5 The little fox is so cute(1/2)
The main entrance of Zhouzhai.
As the two servants pushed open the door.
Zhou Hequan walked out of the door in brocade clothes, with a necklace carved with jade on his chest and a jade bracelet on his wrist. He stood under the steps and looked into the distance.
beside him, the housekeeper said: "The village chief of Luohe Village sent someone to inform him that a scholar from Wucheng came to us and some things were to come to us."
According to the village chief's people, this matter is related to the Demon-killing Office of Cangzhou Prefecture.
It is related to monsters, and there is no small matter, and ordinary people avoid it.
Zhou Hequan dared not refuse behind closed doors.
Wu Xiucai from Cangzhou Prefecture is probably more powerful than his son-in-law.
After a moment, at the end of the street in the distance, the village chief of Luohe Village accompanied a middle-aged man in a black long gown.
There were also several minor officials next to him, smiling, and very pompous.
When they arrived at the door, they politely spoke to each other, and the middle-aged man in the long robe interrupted Zhou Hequan's compliment: "I am the order of the Demon-killing Office of Cangzhou Prefecture to chase the Fox Demons for hundreds of miles, and he has been sentenced to death."
Village chief Lian said: "Liu Xiucai Gao Yi, eliminate harm for the people!"
Zhou Hequan also echoed: "Liu Xiucai is really a warrior!"
The middle-aged man with a black long gown named Liu Xiangui, slowly said: "After I killed the fox demon, I found that it was suspected of having a premature birth before death, and gave birth to offspring. Following the traces, I found the place to give birth to a place... The cubs of the demon clan were hiding in nearby farmlands."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present changed slightly.
The cub of the demon clan?
Let them grow up and cause evil disasters, and there will be no peace in Luohe Village!
The village chief was anxious: "The demon cubs must be killed!"
Wu Xiucai Liu Xiangui smiled slightly: "Based on the number of umbilical cords in the fox demon's belly, I judged that there are four cubs in total... They are just born and have no evil spirits, so farmers can kill them all."
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
My ancestors have lived in Luohe Village for generations. Many people have never been to the county town and have never seen monsters or demon clans in their lives, but they also understand the cruelty and terribleness of demon clans.
"My son-in-law mentioned that cat demon cubs appeared in the village and town next to him. They hid and ate more than a dozen people a month. Later, monsters were born... It was my son-in-law who took action himself to clear the monsters and kill the cat demons." The housekeeper said intentionally or unintentionally, with awe in his tone.
Zhou He was silent and satisfied.
Some words and some things are inconvenient to say, as my master... that will make people unhappy, as if they are boasting about demonstrations.
It's just right to say it from the butler's mouth.
"oh?"
"Your son-in-law?" Liu Xiangui raised his eyebrows.
Zhou Hequan looked modest: "My son-in-law works as an official in Feiyun County and is a martial arts scholar in Yongsheng for 57 years."
Yongsheng is the year name today.
Emperor Yongsheng of the Daqian Dynasty has ascended the throne for more than 60 years.
Liu Xiangui was also a scholar in the Yongsheng period, and his tone became gentle: "Master of the Zhou family, don't worry, I came here mainly for two things:"
"First, the fox demon gave birth to a child in the Zhou family, so you send someone to look for it."
"Secondly, when the fox demon fled in a hurry, he murdered a farmer who was a tenant from the Zhou family. He was an orphan and widowed mother in the family. I couldn't bear it and was powerless. Please take care of you."
Zhou Hequan quickly agreed.
First, I sent someone to the farmland to find the fox demon's cubs.
He called the peasant woman again, and said kindly, and gave her sixty taels of silver to settle down.
Sixty taels of silver!
Ordinary tenants save money a year, save up to five taels of silver, see a doctor, take some medicine, and cause natural disasters from time to time... they can't save money at all.
"Mr. Xie, thank you Liu Xiucai."
The peasant woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed, thanking Mr. Zhou for her great kindness, and kowtowed to Liu Xiangui again. When she saw the brunt of her forehead, she left happily.
...
The same moment.
News about the fox demon cub triggered Zhou Zhai.
It was like thunder thunder striking from the ground, and they all were shocked to the extreme.
The fox demon, which usually exists only in rumors, appears in Luohe Village, was killed by a martial arts scholar, and gave birth to a few cubs hidden in the farmland?
No one has seen a demon.
Including those two martial arts practitioners.
Liu Heishan brought the young girl from the martial arts training ground and hurried over to help find the monster.
He was worried that the farmers were not cautious enough, did not understand the horror of demons, and did it perfunctorily - many people in the martial arts training ground were children of farmers and were familiar with nearby fields, so he came to help find them.
"There are really fox demons in the world!?"
"I want to go home...I won't look for demon cubs."
"It seems like Miss Zhou's third lady over there. She has come here too, so why aren't she afraid?"
The teenagers whispered and walked together, not daring to find the fox demon cubs.
The cubs of the demon clan are also monsters.
Everyone was frightened when they thought of the demonic energy entering their body and turning into a monster.
There are also bold, careful, fearless and searching everywhere: "Liu Xiucai said that the fox demon cub is very weak, and farmers can also kill him. What's there to be afraid of!"
Several people led by Zhang Gaomai and Zhang Lingjiao walked in the fields and actively searched.
Of course.
When it comes to the most exciting person, Fang Hong is the one.
"Fox Demon Cub!"
"God-sent opportunity!"
"This is happier than picking up a head!"
Fang Hong's eyes were as bright as he was, and he was the first to search.
In recent days, he has been thinking hard about how to achieve the goal of killing demons and has come up with many ways, but it either takes time or depends on luck, and plans to go to the county town to look for opportunities.
Turn around...
No, good luck...
Fang Hong walked in the field, his mood fluctuated and it was difficult to calm down.
"Four Fox Demon Cubs."
Fang Hong's eyes flashed, and he made up his mind to seize the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: "It's better to find it first. If not, grab one from someone else."
The afternoon sun shines brightly, the weather is dull and extremely hot.
In the fields, cicadas are sometimes chirping and frogs are sometimes chirping, and they are quiet and distant.
The crops grew very well, and the height was just up to Fang Hong's waist. At first glance, it was like wheat waves, and the breeze blew the golden scenery.
Suddenly!
A buzzing sound came from the front!
Fang Hong's eyes lit up and rushed forward. He saw a big dog, which was black, spotless and hairless, shaking its tail, spitting out its red tongue, smelling it on the ground, as if looking for something to eat.
"this……"
Fang Hong took a breath, and his hot and hot mood became cold.
I thought I had found the fox demon cub.
It turned out to be a black dog.
Many people in Luohe Village have dogs at home and use them to come to protect the hospital. Fang Hong looked at the big black dog with slender limbs and shiny hair... At this moment, a white shadow swept out of the corner of his eyes!
The white shadow flashed away, extremely agile.
Fang Hong was ecstatic and chased after him. He pushed away the crops in the fields with his arms, and found a flawless little fox with a large head and disproportionate to his body. His two pointed ears fluttered in the wind.
With just one glance, Fang Hong concluded: "This is the fox demon's cub!"
A serious fox can't grow like this.
The back of the demon cub: the round and bulging head is the same size as the body. The tail swung left and right is like cotton candy, almost covering the entire fox body. It has a strange body shape and is definitely not a normal animal.
"This body shape!"
"Like a Q-version little fox!"
Fang Hong chased after hundreds of meters, rushed forward and directly pressed the fox demon cub under him, grabbed the back of his neck, and picked it up.
To be continued...
