Chapter 62 Reasoning Notes 2: The Murder of the Fox Demon (21)
"Don't you understand?" At this time, everything was ready, and his tone of voice revealed murderous intent, even if Officer Li noticed it, it didn't matter, "That's because someone locked it outside while you were looking up. ah."

"Then the person standing by the door at that time was..." Like a faucet that was suddenly turned off, Officer Li opened his mouth wide and stopped abruptly, "It was...it was you! You...you are a fox demon The same... accomplice!"

"That's right." The companion said coldly, moved his arm quickly, and then felt a warm and viscous liquid flowing through the back of his hand, "It's me."

The severe pain almost caused Police Officer Li to faint on the spot. He knew that his death was approaching, so he grabbed his companion's body with both hands to support him so that he could not fall down. He wanted to ask clearly: "You...why did you do this?"

The reason given by his companion made him feel like a bolt from the blue.He finally understood that the reason why the fox demon dared to take up his police gun and shoot at his temple last night was because she knew it was an empty gun, and only his companions knew about his habit.

"Tell me!" Blood kept gushing from the edge of the blade, and his life was draining little by little, "How did you revive the fox demon? She was obviously dead back then, so did you find another person to pretend to be her?"

"Hahaha." The companion laughed triumphantly, "You underestimate me too much. Do you think the fox demon is a fake? Of course not, she is the girl from back then!"

"No...impossible. How can the dead be resurrected?"

"This question, you can ask Hades after you go to the underworld."

The companion pulled out the knife and cut off Officer Li's nose...

And the last words he left in the world were: "Even if I die, my body can prove that the weapon that killed me didn't come from the universe!"

The implication is that his corpse is the best evidence to expose the fox demon's lies.

"Idiot..." The companion kicked the gradually stiff corpse on the ground mockingly, and sneered, "How can a guy of your level see through my clever tricks?"

Section [-] Fox Demon Stone Statue
The sky is endlessly dark, and distant stars hang in the void.The mountain wind and moonlight reveal a mysterious atmosphere of voodoo sect. The torches inserted around the altar are burning fiercely, and the red flames are blown by the mountain wind.A group of solemn villagers gathered tightly around the altar.

Just over a month ago, at the same place, they witnessed the revival of the fox demon with their own eyes.And this time, what will happen?
A few of us stood outside to watch the sacrifice.An Xiaobao and Qi Mu came one after another and watched the excitement on the other side of the altar. Although they stood together, they seemed to be unfamiliar with each other, and they hardly talked, not even simple eye contact.As soon as Xia Zao'an saw Qi Mu, she rushed to find him.

I looked and found that Huang Wanwan was not there.Mu Xiao also said as if he just discovered it: "It's strange, the boss was still nearby just now."

"I saw him just now," Cheng Meini answered at this moment, "he was wandering around the woods."

"Did he go into the mountains?" Doctor immediately looked towards the dark forest.The dense forest is like an impenetrable black wall, and only the path leading to the mountain has torn apart a dimly lit entrance.

"No way?" I said, "maybe looking for a place to pee."

"Then why haven't you come back? Strange thing!" Mu Xiao ran to the woods with a worried face and shouted a few times, then looked around the altar for a week, and came back with the same sentence: "Weird thing, the Boss is gone."

I vaguely had an ominous premonition: "Why don't we go and look for it?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, although no one likes the arrogant Huang Wanwan, but this is after all a matter of human life.Moreover, police officer Li is currently hiding on the mountain, if Huang Wanwan meets him, it will be over.

A few minutes later, we had one more thing to worry about.Qi Mu gave us a piece of news. He just saw the hooded monster walking into the mountain along the path.

"Are you really going into the mountains?" Xia Zao'an tightly hugged Qi Mu's arm tightly, just like what Cheng Meini did to me.I still don't understand what Cheng Meini likes about me.

"Just in case, you two girls should not go in."

Unexpectedly, this proposal was rejected by Xia Zaoan and Cheng Meini with one voice.

"No! It will be amusing!"

"I want to be with Lord Saiki!"

I frowned, and Qi Mu looked at each other with compassion, then nodded and said: "Okay. But, you have to be careful, don't fall behind."

We found some torches and walked into the forest in a group.Mu Xiao and the Doctor immediately walked to the front.While calling Huang Wanwan's name, we nervously observed the eerie surroundings, for fear that some birds and beasts would pounce.A slight shake of the tree shadow will make our nerves tense.

We got farther and farther away from the altar, looking out through the gaps in the trees, the fire became faint and broken.The surrounding trees became more and more chaotic, and there was not even a mountain road.Because we were afraid of getting lost, we all tried to confirm the direction of the altar while walking.After a while, we finally found a path.

"Someone walked by here." The Doctor who was walking ahead had sharp eyes and a careful heart, and immediately squatted down to check, "There are footprints here, and they were left just now."

"Is it Boss's footprints?" Mu Xiao also squatted down to look, "It's leather shoe prints! Boss is wearing leather shoes!"

"Don't get too excited," I said, "Officer Li also wears leather shoes."

"Then do you still want to chase?" Xia Zao'an's tone was full of nervousness.

Everyone was silent.Officer Li has a gun in his hand. If he is the one who walks past here, how can we unarmed people beat him?

I opened my lips and managed to squeeze out a voice: "Whether or not to pursue depends on everyone's wishes, why don't we decide by voting."

Mu Xiao took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead, then slowly raised his hand: "Huang Wanwan is also my boss, I can't ignore his life or death. However, even if you decide not to go, I won't blame you, After all, Boss is not a popular person..."

"You want to find it alone? It's too dangerous. I'll go with you." Doctor Ma said, and Mu Xiao immediately gave her a grateful look.

"I'll go too!" Qi Mu responded without fear.

"Then I'll go too..." Xia Zaoan reluctantly raised her hand.

The next statement between me and Cheng Meini is naturally superfluous.

A group of six of us moved on.At this time, everyone's nerves became more tense.The dark woods surrounded us, creating a suffocating atmosphere.I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling a little excited even though I was nervous.When Cheng Meini suddenly yelled, I realized that my bravery was faking.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" I waved the torch desperately, my feet trembling uncontrollably.

"My bracelet fell off!" Cheng Meini looked down.

"That's it?"

"But that bracelet is so expensive, it's a limited edition that can only be bought in Milan, Italy."

"Now is not the time to look for things." I said as I walked behind another person - Xia Zao'an, and suddenly lifted her who was lying on the ground trying to rummage through the fallen leaves, "If someone drops something, you will be shut down again. What's up?"

"He is learning from Lei Feng to do good deeds! Mi Kaka, I really misjudged you. It turns out that your ideological consciousness is so low!"

"Like Lei Feng's size! You obviously want to steal it secretly and keep it for yourself!"

"How can there be!" Xia Zaoan's mouth was stiff.

Cheng Meini searched for a minute, then gave up: "Bad luck! I have to go to Milan to buy another pair."

"Then hurry up!" I specially patted Xia Zaoan, and she reluctantly walked forward.

After walking a few steps, Cheng Meini screamed again.She backed up again and again, bumping into Doctor's horse.

"what happened?"

The Doctor took a few steps forward and found a large hole dug out of the vertical slope on the side of the road, and there was a hideous stone statue inside.It sat cross-legged, eyes wide open, and a pair of pointed ears were surprisingly big, like the ears of a fox.And the mottled marks on the surface show that it has weathered the weather in this place.The big hole is like a small temple, just enough to hold a stone statue about half a meter high, and the hole is sealed with a solid wooden fence, as if to prevent the stone statue from being moved or someone committing other profane acts.

"This is the stone statue of the fox demon." Qi Mu walked over, stretched his hand through the gap in the wooden fence to touch the stone statue inside, "It was said in the county annals. But..." He stopped and looked elsewhere, "it should be There's another stone statue."

"Oh?"

"It's the stone statue of the mountain god, the fairy who sealed the fox demon in the scarecrow." After more than a month of research, Qi Mu knew the history and legends of this village well.

"So, there are two stone statues in this mountain?" Realizing that this question is worthless to discuss at this moment, I urged, "Don't talk about this, let's continue on our way."

In hindsight, it was a pity.I'm afraid no one thought that those two stone statues were the key to solving a series of mysteries.

After about 10 minutes, we reached the top of the mountain.The path enshrining the stone statue of the fox demon was actually very short, and it broke only halfway up the mountain, probably only tens of meters away.Afterwards, we ran up to the top of the mountain in a daze. On the way, we didn't find any sign of Huang Wanwan or Officer Li.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, the altar below the mountain is clearly in sight.In the dim light of the fire, the figures of the villagers swayed slightly, and the sound of pious worship came from afar.A white figure appeared in the middle of the altar. It seemed that the fox demon was about to start the ceremony.
