Chapter 12 Shaoyang Taiyin Yin Xiu stared at her blankly. Although he was calm on the surface, the violent vibration from the bell in his pocket still made his scalp tingle.
In his eyes, Xiao Meng's head was exuding a faint black aura, which was obviously the characteristic of a monster.
Xiao Meng said: "Yin Xiu? I feel that your whole person is obviously different from before."
"You have become different too, fox demon, or Xiao Meng?"
Xiaomeng smiled sadly, "There will definitely be something different. In the last battle, my demon elixir was taken away, and my Taoism was ruined."
She lifted up her long hair, revealing a mutilated ear, which was the mark of being injured by Uncle Ming last time.
Yin Xiu also felt that the fox demon's energy was indeed much weaker than before.
If the fox demon gave him the pressure before like a tiger, now it can only be regarded as a kitten with its back arched and its body covered with fur.
Yin Xiu is not a veteran like Uncle Ming, but he is familiar with Sun Tzu's Art of War, so even if the fox demon shows signs of weakening, he still remains vigilant.
After all, the fox is a very cunning animal. Who knows if it is playing tricks? Ignoring Yin Xiu's vigilance, Xiao Meng talked about many things.
"I'm not a local [demon]. Speaking of which, my hometown is in the Qinling Mountains. There are endless virgin forests there. The trees cover the sky and the sun, and are much denser and taller than these buildings.
I am 50 years old this year, which is a very young age for a fox shouldn't have come to Hong Kong Island originally. It's not a place for foxes or other ferocious beasts to live, but I can't help but come. "
There was an obvious melancholy in Xiao Meng's eyes, forcing Yin Xiu to go through Sun Tzu's Art of War in his mind again.
[Perhaps this calming heart also indirectly strengthened my state of mind? 】
Regardless, Yin Xiu remained silent on the surface, while looking for an escape route with her eyes.
The werewolf who had rescued Xiaomeng before, even if he wasn't hiding in the dark and watching his every move, would still appear here at any time.
Although the opportunity to kill the fox demon was rare, Yin Xiu did not intend to take the risk.
"Nowhere's spiritual energy can compare with the Qinling Mountains. Even the spiritual gathering formations of those Danding masters in Qintianjian intercept many of the tributaries of the Qinling Mountains' spiritual energy. They are like a small reservoir. The water flows through the pond. Then it was full.
For Qinling, filling every pool is not even an easy task. It just creates these miracles inadvertently, just like a little bit of residue dropped by a whale when eating is enough for other small fish and shrimps to eat. full.
But who would have thought that Qinling's spiritual energy would one day dry up?It was like a raging river that suddenly stopped flowing. "
Recalling the previous encounter, Xiao Meng's face turned pale under the light, and her body could not help but tremble.
Yin Xiu's face also became less pretty, "Is it because of the steam engines and trains?"
Xiaomeng nodded, "Yes, ever since the Europeans brought those [industries] to the East, Kyushu's spiritual energy has begun to decline sharply. Even Qinling cannot avoid the fate of exhaustion."
She took off the black bandage on her hand, revealing her hollow fingers, and showed them to Yin Xiu.
"This kind of small injury is nothing at first. It can be healed in two weeks at most, leaving just a scar. But as you can see, this wound shows no signs of recovery at all. It is completely mutilated.
This is also one of the symptoms of the exhaustion of Jiuzhou's spiritual energy. On the other hand, it has become increasingly difficult for me to change back to my original shape. In other words, I have been bound to this human body for longer and longer. "
She leaned against the wall, looking down and playing with her fingers.
Yin Xiu vaguely felt that the situation in the north might be even worse, otherwise the fox demon would not have come to Hong Kong Island, which was recognized as having thin spiritual power of industry, moving mountains and reclaiming seas, will change nature beyond recognition in just the blink of an eye.
"I ran into the light to absorb the man's essence precisely because my spiritual power was getting weaker and weaker. Before this, I could absorb enough power just by hanging out with people on Bolan Street, but now it seems that I can't do that anymore. "
Just hanging out? Yin Xiu couldn't help but think of Pipiao Feng's warning to him intentionally or unintentionally on the way.
"That little girl is a bit evil. Her patrons, let alone other people, there was a tall sailor who was over two meters tall, the kind who could stand a person on his arm. After patronizing her, Then, he died the next day.
Lying on the bed, without any clothes on, he looked terribly thin, as if he was seriously this is not the first case. She doesn’t have any regular customers, you know?Everyone who touched her was either dead or disappeared from the world, and I didn’t dare to mention it to others.
You wouldn’t believe it anyway, would you?Being a ghost under the peony flowers is also very romantic. If you mention this to any guest, it will only make them more excited. "
I don't know if the rumors heard in the "previous life" are still useful in this world. Yin Xiu has heard that the three-tailed fox demon can not be cultivated only by relying on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Yinxiu, do you hate the English people here?" she asked suddenly.
Yin Xiu nodded, "Not only those from Hong Kong Island, but also those from England, there are not many good people among those blond and blue-eyed guys."
Xiaomeng was still leaning against the wall, the streetlight reflecting the light in her eyes.
"In this case, you can understand the hatred that we, who have lost our spiritual energy, have for all human beings."
"No." Yin Xiu shook his head, "This is not a reason for you to suck out other people's energy. Besides, there is one thing I really want to know."
"Why did you drain the essence of three men in a row within a week, but you seemed to have observed me for a long time before taking action, so that you even figured out my martial arts realm clearly? There is no need to go to such trouble, right?"
Xiao Meng stared at Yin Xiu with a strange look in his eyes, "Don't you know what's special about you yet?"
Yin Xiu spread her hands and said, "Can't it be because I'm more handsome?"
Xiaomeng chuckled and said, "So you really don't know. Your horoscope, Shaoyang and Taiyin, no matter where they are, are good materials for practicing or helping others practice."
Yin Xiu frowned, "Where did you know my horoscope?"
Xiao Meng's laughter was obviously a little proud: "I didn't expect that I had sucked a person's essence in other places before. There was an employee roster on his desk, and your name and birthday were on it."
Yin Xiu slapped her forehead suddenly. It should be the employee roster in the factory.
He only learned later that during the time he entered the factory, the Hong Kong Island patrol police suddenly became stricter about workers' information management, requiring each worker's date of birth to be registered.
Workers generally cannot tell their birthdays, and some don’t even know how old they are this year.
So the agency randomly found an old fortune teller and compiled some birth dates for this group of people.
The old man was not very good at telling fortunes, and he was even less understanding of these modern things. He thought that foreigners also wanted to read birth dates and fortune-telling based on feng shui, so he compiled a lot of birth dates according to fortune books, instead of just writing Last year month day.
Maybe the reviewer didn't read it at all, but anyway, the roster passed the review.
At that time, Yin Xiu regarded this as a joke, but now, the joke has been brought on himself.
