Chapter 71: Three-Tailed Demon Fox

  The house that appeared in front of me and Jin Gang Cannon was exactly the same as Jin Gang Cannon's house, the only difference being that the fat pig in the pigpen had turned into a piglet, and there was an additional wall in the yard. It should be the change after I left.

  He and Jin Gang Pao carefully pushed open the door and entered, only to find that there was actually a light on inside. Jin Gang Pao's mother was sitting on the kang, sewing something. When she saw the two of them, she happily got down from the kang: "San Niu, Xiao Yu Zi, why do you always come back so late at night?"

  My goodness, looking at the kind-hearted old man in front of me, I didn't have the courage to swing my sword and chop him down immediately. There are too many strange things in this world, what if I misjudged and killed Jin Gang Pao's mother, wouldn't he want to fight me to the death? Let's observe for now, anyway she can't escape.

  "Three Cows, why are you staring at me like that?" The old lady moved to the edge of the kang, grabbed Jin Gang Pao's hand and pulled him into the pit.

  "Who are you?" Jin Gang's consciousness was still somewhat clear, and he knew his mom shouldn't be here.

  "What's wrong with you three kids?" The old lady looked at me with a worried expression, turning her head to stare at me who was blocking the doorway.

  "Auntie, you've lost a lot of white hair!" I countered without catching her drift. The last time we met, Golden Cannon's mom had almost all white hair, but the one in front of me now had more black silk than white hair.

  "Fortunately, the medicine you gave me really works." The old lady's tone was sincere and her intonation was exactly the same. Earlier, I had indeed dug up that female He Shou Wu from behind East Mountain Ancient Tomb and had it delivered to her by Jin Gang Pao.

  "Mom, how did you end up here?" Jin Gang Pao asked anxiously as soon as he saw her, grabbing the old lady's hand.

  The old lady hadn't had time to speak yet, I pulled over the golden cannon and took a few steps forward "Auntie, I have something to ask you."

  "Good kid, what do you want to ask?" Not only was his expression genuine, but the dialect in his speech hadn't changed either.

  I quickly pulled out paper and pen, wrote a few words, and stuffed them into the hand of the cannonball "Let you see when you look again."

  "Auntie, last time when Jin Gang ran out to fight with Sun Zhi Shu, what did I say to you from behind?" I didn't have many chances to interact with the old lady alone, and thinking back, it was only when Jin Gang ran out to fight with Zhi Shu that I said a few words of comfort to her from behind, which Jin Gang didn't know about.

  "My goodness, that was years ago, how can I remember?" The old lady said as she flipped out a package of peanuts from the kang and handed it to us.

  "Mom, where's Dad and big brother?" The second brother of Jin Gang Cannon had already gotten a wife and separated.

  "Go to the town to buy fertilizer..." The old lady had just spoken, and I waved my hand to stop her. "Auntie, this is just a few days ago, think carefully again, I remember when I left the house you even stuffed a stick in my hand?" I tried to mislead her on purpose. If she was really Jin Gang's mother, even if she didn't remember what happened at that time, it would be impossible for her to stuff a stick in my hand to hit someone.

  "Oh, I remember now, it's like that, I was afraid you'd get taken advantage of." The old thing finally showed its true colors.

  "Lao Yu, did you bring your stick that day?" Jin Gang suddenly realized and looked puzzled.

  "Old Cow, look at what I've written." I sneered, grasping the divine turtle cannon at my back waist.

  "What the heck!?" After reading the note in his hand, Jin Gang Cannon shouted and drew his sword to slash.

  I wrote on the note "I'll accompany him out for a walk and won't let him cause trouble."

  As Jin Gang Cannon drew his sword, I also pulled out Shen Gui Cannon and hooked my finger, ready to fire.

  ……

  ……

  "Lao Yu, what's going on?" The Dark Blood in Jin Gang's cannon suddenly stopped at the moment it was about to hit its target.

  "I'm also unable to move." My arm was stretched out in front of me, my fingers already curled around the trigger, but suddenly I was frozen stiff and couldn't budge, standing awkwardly in place. Only my mouth could still speak.

  "White Wolf, come!" I suddenly realized the danger of my situation and loudly called out for White Wolf. I knew its skills - a few bites from it would be more than enough to sever a hemp rope.

  "For hundreds of miles around here... there haven't been any wolves for a long time" The old lady's body shook, and in an instant she transformed back into the appearance of an elderly man with a cane. When she said the four words "there haven't been any wolves", her voice had already changed back to that of an aged male.

  "Fox spirit!" Jin Gang Pao exclaimed, his face expressionless. The scene before us was too bizarre, and it was the first time in our lives that we had seen a physical body transform into something else right before our eyes, leaving us both shocked and pale.

  "Hey, he can't see it, how did you see it?" The old man in gray clothes smiled and pointed at me with a sly tone. He indirectly acknowledged the phrase "fox spirit" from Jin Gang Pao.

  It turned out that we actually encountered a group of foxes. But how could the foxes emit human white gas? I was filled with question marks in my mind, trying to mobilize the true yuan spiritual energy to break through the self-imposed seal, but unfortunately, although the spiritual energy can flow freely inside the body, it is difficult for the fingers to bend and cannot pinch the tactics to cast spells, and I couldn't help but secretly cry out in frustration.

  "Woof woof~~~~" At this moment, a distant sound of a white wolf's urgent and angry barking was heard, the distance from which the sound came seemed to be still at the head of the village far away.

  The old man who had transformed from a fox spirit heard the dog barking, and his face showed a look of surprise. In an instant, he regained his composure and slyness. With a leap, he jumped down from the kang and, with his hands behind his back, circled around me and Jin Gang Cannon several times. "You two are useless!"

  "White Wolf, come, come!" The fearful expressions of the people who had transformed from foxes earlier indicated that White Wolf could indeed pose a threat to them, and the old fox's panicked expression just now made me even more certain of this, so I once again urgently called out for White Wolf.

  "What the f**k do you want to do?" Just as I was shouting at White Wolf, Jin Gang Cannon opened his mouth. The old fox who was surrounding him and turning in circles was scared out of tune by his voice.

  "Huh, can this thing really spit fire?" The old fox ignored the Diamond Cannon and curiously stretched out its hand to take the Divine Turtle Cannon from me. It seems it can really read the Diamond Cannon's thoughts.

  "Boom!" The gun went off.

  My fingers had already been placed on the trigger, and the old fox's sudden pull directly fired the divine turtle cannon. Since it was facing the muzzle, a steel needle was directly nailed to its face door. It let out a painful hiss and turned around, jumping out with us.

  "I know I can still run, chase!" The moment the old fox jumped out of the door, as soon as we were a distance apart, I felt my limbs regain their freedom, shouting and chasing after Jin Gang Pao.

  As soon as he came out of the house, he saw that the old fox was still in the yard. This time, however, the old fox had really turned into a fox. A dark grey large fox stood in the middle of the courtyard, with blood flowing all over its face, its back arched and its teeth bared as it stared at the outside of the door.

  I raised my head and was surprised to find the white wolf slowly approaching from outside the door, stopping not far from the gray fox. Its back hair stood up, its lips curled up and teeth bared, its front paws slightly bent, assuming an attacking posture.

  "I'll hack you to death...!" Jin Gang Cannon's fury surged up, and with the Dusk Blood in hand, he was about to charge forward and chop him to pieces.

  "Wait a minute!" I grabbed onto the cannon. This old fox knew some wicked magic, and if I got too close to it, I was afraid it would freeze me in place again.

  In the military dog biting subject, one finger bites the wrist, two fingers bite the throat. I stretched out my right hand, middle and index fingers pointing at the white wolf, and gave the attack command "Rush!"

  The long-awaited white wolf heard my command and rushed towards the injured fox in the courtyard, roaring with anger.

  Just as we were about to catch the white wolf, a grey fox with its back arched and teeth bared suddenly turned around and charged towards us. My friend Jin Gang and I instinctively dodged out of the way, and the fox darted into the house and escaped through the back window.

  "Three-tailed?" A detail that I hadn't noticed before caught my attention as the fox leapt out of the window and escaped. "Twelve zodiac animals, three tails at the end", was it referring to this?
