With the talisman he asked for from Taoist Jiewei in his arms, the Ninth Prince felt that the dark night was not so scary anymore.

The clouds in the sky dispersed at some point, revealing a half-round moon, and the moonlight sprinkled on the earth, casting a layer of silver light on everything around.

The wind blows, the shadows of the trees sway and rustle.

The place where the Ninth Prince lived was not far away, and it was extremely quiet, as if he was the only one left in the world.

The little eunuch who followed the Ninth Prince lowered his head, and walked very lightly, so lightly that the Ninth Prince could only hear his own footsteps.

"Xiaoquanzi, why are you so quiet today?" Due to his temper, none of the eunuchs and maids who were valued by the Ninth Prince's side were eloquent.

Koizumi was newly promoted by him, with a clever mouth, he often made the Ninth Prince laugh, and the Ninth Prince specially brought him here, firstly to teach him a lot of knowledge, and secondly to relieve boredom.

In normal times, Koizumi would have started chattering long ago, how could he not make a sound like he is now.

The Ninth Prince realized something was wrong.

"Xiaoquanzi!" He stopped and pushed the people around him, but he didn't expect Xiaoquanzi to be pushed down by him.

"Bang—" the body hit the ground.

The Ninth Prince covered his mouth, trying not to cry out.

There are wide or narrow alleys between the houses in this village. The Ninth Prince took a few steps back and caught sight of a few pairs of forest green eyes flashing in the alley.

As if attracted by the movement here, in the darkness, the green light spot kept approaching.

"Ah—" The Ninth Prince could no longer control himself and exclaimed.

"Someone! Somebody!"

While retreating in a panic, his back bumped into a solid body. Just as the Ninth Prince was about to yell, he stretched out his hands from behind and covered his mouth: "Your Highness, be quiet, don't disturb them."

The heart was beating violently, and the Ninth Prince was led back by the man, trembling and making a voice: "What is that?"

"Did His Highness Nine forget the purpose of coming here?"

Demon Fox!

"They, why are they here? Didn't they say that they sent people to search the mountains and found no trace of them? Also, who are you?"

"This subordinate was sent by His Highness the Crown Prince. Don't worry, Your Highness Ninth Prince, someone will be here soon."

"Brother Jiang is right, the prince is really a good man." At a critical moment, he was rescued by the people sent by the prince, and the image of the prince in the hearts of the nine princes grew stronger.

"And Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang is also very worried about you."

"I can hear your voice. You are Qi Lie who often follows the prince and brother. Fortunately, you are here this time. You saved my life. When you return to the palace, tell me directly what you want. I will do it."

There was a strong smell of blood on the demon fox, and the Ninth Prince was so smoked that he wanted to vomit before he got close.

The demon fox rushed out of the alley, under the moonlight, the Ninth Prince saw their true colors for the first time.

Four huge foxes grinned, showing their sharp teeth, and they could bite off half of a person's body in one bite.

"It, they are coming, where are the guards guarding here, where are the forbidden soldiers? I'm so scared, will we be bitten to death..." Frightened and frightened, the Ninth Prince had no idea what he was talking about.

"No, His Highness's people will be here soon."

The man's voice fell, and the sound of uniform footsteps sounded.

The sound of arrows and the screaming of the fox sounded at the same time.

The Ninth Prince shrank back silently, covered his eyes with his hands, and looked forward through his fingers.

The four big foxes were surrounded by armored soldiers, and there was nowhere to hide under the rain of arrows.

Knowing that something might happen to the Ninth Prince, Jiang Ling was dozed off, scared away, and jumped out of the man's arms: "Your Highness, let's go and have a look."

"Qi Lie is by his side, nothing will happen."

Having said that, Xiao Shengyun still took Jiang Ling to find the direction where the Ninth Prince left.

On the way, they heard movement not far away, and when they met soldiers who came to report the situation, they knew that the Ninth Prince had encountered the demon fox.

"Your Highness, why is the demon fox in the village?" Jiang Ling kept walking.

"Father sent people to search the mountain and found nothing. It is impossible for such a big fox to disappear out of thin air. It could only be hiding somewhere. After the fox attack happened, the village was emptied. It is not surprising that they hid in there."

When the Ninth Prince saw them coming, he left Qi Lie behind and quickly walked to Jiang Ling: "Brother Jiang, you scared me to death just now."

The Ninth Prince was still in shock and had countless things to say.

"Just now Koizumi and I were planning to go back. On the way, we found that something was wrong with Koizumi. We pushed him, and he fell to the ground. Before I could confirm what happened to him, I saw the green eyes hiding in the alley... "

The Ninth Prince finished talking about what happened just now without stopping, "I still feel my heart is beating non-stop."

"Fortunately, the prince and emperor sent someone to follow me, otherwise I don't know what will happen."

Jiang Ling patted him on the back, and channeled a trace of divine power to soothe his tense nerves.

The Ninth Prince regained his composure and slowly recovered.

Xiao Shengyun listened to the report from his subordinates.

The ones who came to kill the demon fox were soldiers he had led. Since Emperor Chongming ordered it, they have been guarding the periphery. Fortunately, the village is not big, and the place where they live is not in the center of the village. It doesn't take much time to lead the soldiers.

After such a big commotion, Emperor Chongming was woken up and came out with a cold face.

The four demon foxes happened to meet the one who attacked the village. Emperor Chongming first asked about the situation of the Ninth Prince, and only after seeing that he was fine, did he pursue the matter of the demon foxes.

Master Jie Wei was "invited" out.

Soldiers with weapons pressed him and came close to the fox.

The smell of blood came to his nostrils, and Jie Weidao turned pale.

Things went beyond their plan, and when he was "invited" out, Daoist Jie Wei was at a loss, and suddenly faced the bloody scene, he didn't even know what happened.

"Father, the demon fox has already been punished, why don't you ask Taoist priest Jiewei to do it now to completely eliminate the evil spirits." Xiao Chengyun said in a deep voice.

Emperor Chongming also had this intention: "What is the Taoist priest's opinion?"

"But, here, the time is not right..."

"The way the Taoist priest did it before, he didn't know whether the demon fox was alive or dead, so he fixed the day, but now that the demon fox is dead, shouldn't it be night?" Jiang Ling said at the right time.

The Ninth Prince unconditionally supports Jiang Ling: "Yes, Daoist, I originally brought the peace talisman you gave me tonight, and I encountered such a thing, by the way, I don't know if Koizumi next to me was confused by the demon fox Now, the Taoist priest might as well show him."

"What's going on?" Emperor Chongming only knew that the Ninth Prince was attacked by a demon fox, but he didn't know anything else happened.

The Ninth Prince explained what was wrong with Koizumi: "Father, I was too scared to take care of him at the time. Fortunately, the demon fox didn't intend to eat him and kept chasing me. He should still be there."

According to the direction pointed by the Ninth Prince, Emperor Chongming sent someone to bring Koizumi here.

Koizumi's eyes were blank, and he didn't respond to the outside world at all. Jiang Ling looked at him for a while, then whispered to Xiao Shengyun: "Your Highness, is the current Koizumi the same as the person he met when he left the palace?"

If the two people had the same medicine, then the demon fox wounding people and the boulder red ants were done by the same group.

"Master Jiewei, thank you."

The Ninth Prince looked worried about Koizumi, and Jie Wei couldn't say no.

Emperor Chongming recognized Jie Wei's ability, so he didn't participate, frowning and staring at the fox lying in a pool of blood.

"Is this the demon fox that hurts people?"

"Returning to His Majesty, it's them." The village chief came to a conclusion after careful observation.

The demon fox is almost the same as in the description. It is bigger than ordinary foxes and has red hair. Emperor Chongming couldn't imagine that it was these beasts that caused panic during this time.

"Daoist, now that the demon fox has been executed, what to do..." Emperor Chongming just wanted to quickly resolve the grievances of the demon soul, so as not to let himself be affected by the nightmare again.

"Pindao needs to prepare." After a brief panic, Jiewei regained his composure.

"Then Koizumi, when will the Taoist priest show him?" Ninth Prince asked.

Jiewei replied: "The poor should solve the demon fox's matter first. This person is affected by the demon fox. When the demon fox's matter is resolved, it will naturally return to normal."

Worried that Koizumi would violently hurt others, the guards found a rope and tied him up.

"Keep an eye on people, don't cause any accidents." Xiao Shengyun ordered in a low voice.

A young soldier responded and stood by Koizumi's side.

"Brother Jiang, do you think Koizumi is really influenced by the demon fox?" The demon fox was shot to death by random arrows in front of him, and the image of the omnipotent demon fox in the Ninth Prince's mind has collapsed. Can't even dodge the arrows?

"I don't think so."

"I don't think so either," the Ninth Prince nuzzled, "I don't believe in Taoist Jiewei at all now. If he is really capable, how could I have met a demon fox and almost been bitten by taking the peace amulet he gave me?"

In one day, Jiewei's image in the heart of the Ninth Prince changed several times.

Jiang Ling patted the Ninth Prince who was afraid of bad luck, and was quite speechless about his luck.

"After coming here, it seems that I was the only one. The palace people around me had an accident, and I almost had an accident. After returning, I must go to Huguo Temple to worship. Brother Jiang, do you want to go with me?" The ninth prince did not forget the prince, " This time, thanks to the prince's royal brother who sent Qi guards to follow me in the dark, the prince's brother should go with me too, Jiewei's safety talisman is useless, I will go to Huguo Temple and ask for two more for you."

"I have to ask for one from Guard Qi. He saved me, so I can't say no."

Emperor Chongming insisted that Jiewei had no choice but to have people prepare the things needed for the practice and make it overnight.

An unremarkable crow rested on a branch, staring down for a while with slightly red eyes, then flapped its wings and flew away.

Jie Wei brushed off the incense ash on his sleeves, and strolled to the demon fox's corpse.

"Your Majesty, it is best to burn these corpses after the ceremony is over."

The stench mixed with the smell of fresh blood was pungent and unpleasant. Since Emperor Chongming came out, his brows had not been relaxed.

The stench in reality overlapped infinitely with the dream, which always made him unable to tell whether he was dreaming or reality.

Hearing Jie Wei's words, he subconsciously nodded: "Burn it."

Jiang Ling frowned, grabbed Xiao Chengyun's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Doctor Chu said he wanted the corpse of the demon fox."

"I just remember," Xiao Chengyun squeezed Jiang Ling's fingers in comfort, "I won't let them all be burned."

Some clues might be found on these demon fox corpses.

The practice place is in the original position.

Jie Wei held the wooden sword in his hand, and the talisman paper on the tip of the sword burned without wind, and the raging flames reflected his face distorted for a moment.

Suddenly, a smelly wind came from nowhere, and the Ninth Prince reacted the fastest, pointing in the direction where everyone turned their backs: "There are still a group of foxes over there!"

Jiang Ling looked back, and in the darkness, a group of green eyes were constantly approaching them.
