There is actually a fox demon!

And that Zhou Shize actually killed two fox demons?!

Could it be... he really has the so-called protection of the mountain god?!

This incident was so amazing that he was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to react.

"Ha, are you afraid?" The ugly fox demon glanced at him and sneered as if mocking.

"I heard that Zhou Shize had the so-called protection of the mountain god. Maybe he killed your relatives at that time because of the mountain god's help. Now you are the only one, how can he be able to defeat him?"

The leader of the bandit was obviously panicked. After all, it was involved in so-called ghosts and gods. How could he, a mortal, remain calm at this time?

"If the mountain god really takes action, we may not be able to hold on for long. It is better to escape with our things earlier and stay away from here before the officers and soldiers have not yet come up the mountain, and perhaps they can still save their lives!"

"You can't run away at all!" The fox demon shook his head, "Just as you talk to me, the dog official's manpower had already surrounded the foot of the mountain. What's more, do you think you robbed the caravans coming and going here, can he let you go?"

"This...what should I do!"

"You don't have to panic. I have a way to deal with that dog official!" The fox demon turned around and walked to the window, closed his eyes and seemed to be sensing something, and then continued, "I have been practicing here for many years and know that there is no mountain god here at all, but just a monster with a higher level of cultivation."

"Although I don't know why the monster wants to help a human race, I guess that monster must be a kind person. Those who are willing to be driven must have paid a certain price for the mortal, and even let the monster swallow the people under his control in exchange for support!"

"This time, in the eyes of the county magistrate, it should be just you bandits who are in trouble. The people he brought are enough to take you down, so he will not deliberately spend the price to ask the monster for help. If only those mortals are there, I can stop them and drive them away."

"But even if they were driven away this time, what if Zhou Shize guessed that a monster was causing trouble, what would he do if he invited the mountain god to help?" The bandit leader was still a little uneasy.

"You don't need to worry about this." The fox demon seemed to have already predicted this matter, and a glimmer flashed in his eyes, "I have something to ask you to help me. As long as I succeed, my cultivation will increase greatly. At that time, I will definitely beat that monster!"

"It may not even be necessary for me to take action, and the other party ran away with his tail. I don't believe that the monster would dare to be an enemy of me for a little sacrifice. Then you will seize the opportunity and solve the county magistrate as soon as possible to eliminate future troubles!"

"I have released a reward mission in the world. I think it will take a short time for a desperate person to come to take over the mission. At that time, as long as you really can let the county magistrate not have the protection of the mountain god, then this son will definitely die!"

The bandit leader patted his chest confidently and then hesitated again, asking, "I just don't know what you want me to do?"

"This matter is not difficult, but you need to be very careful..." The fox demon let out a sharp and unpleasant laughter, lowered his voice slightly, and said slowly.

Just as he was planning a conspiracy in the mountain village, Zhou Shize had already arrived here with his men at the foot of the mountain and arranged for people to ambush at the exits of various mountain roads to prevent the bandits from escaping in the chaos.

When the carriage stopped, he lifted the curtain and got out of the car, looking up at the lush forests.

The weather is right at this moment, and the cloudlessness is clear, and the clear sunlight illuminates the entire mountain and forest, which is also very suitable for their encirclement and suppression operations.

If it is late at night and the darkness covers the earth, it is more difficult to shuttle between trees, and it is easier to defend and attack in the mountains and forests. In addition, it is difficult to see clearly whether there will be any traps under your feet. In general, it is better to be early rather than late.

However, after calming down and considering it carefully, Zhou Shize decided to be safe. This time, he did not want to take down the opponent at once, but to test the strength of the bandits.

It is naturally best if you can win it at once, but if you can't, you must also ensure that there will be no casualties on your side.

"Sir, everyone is ready now, it's almost time to start!" the master reminded from the side.

"Okay!" Zhou Shize nodded slightly and attracted a middle-aged man dressed in a yamen runner next to him.

"Uncle Lou, your family has been hunting for generations and should be most familiar with this kind of mountainous terrain. Please bring people to investigate the situation first, and our large army will follow closely!"

As soon as he said this, he heard the man persuade him nervously: "Master Zhou, you are the messenger of the mountain god. How can you take risks here? You are just to capture those thieves and leave them to us! Besides, you are a scholar, and I, Lao Lou, can fight even if I am a tiger. Can these guys be more fierce than tigers?"

Zhou Shize disagreed: "Since all the soldiers are fighting for Qingyang City ahead, how can I sit down as a county magistrate?"

After the crowd repeatedly persuaded him, he took a step back and sighed, "I can't go up, but please be careful."

"Don't worry, sir!"

After such an explanation, the bandit suppression finally officially began.

At first, it was quite smooth. The troops were divided into two groups and surrounded each other, with more than 20 people from each group, intending to attack one front and back.

However, when we were halfway up the mountain, before we could see it, the wind suddenly changed. The sky became gloomy and dark clouds were covered with deafening thunder and lightning sounds, as if heavy rain was coming soon, making everyone in the forest feel afraid.

Mountain roads are the hardest to walk on rainy days. It would be fine if the roads are muddy, but if you accidentally encounter muddy and landslides, your life will be difficult to save.

"Is it going to rain heavily?!"

Uncle Lou was the leader of this time. After looking at the extremely bad sky, he couldn't help but frown secretly.

It is clear that at the foot of the mountain it is still cloudless, why does the sky change when you go up the mountain?

"Can you give up here?"

He denied this idea as soon as he thought about it.

If you continue to rush up and fight quickly, you may be able to hide in the village for a while. If you go back now, you will be soaked in the chicken, and you will not be ashamed to see the adults.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand, signaling everyone behind him to speed up and plan to continue moving forward in the heavy rain that was about to fall.

But what was strange was that as they continued to move forward, the heavy rain in the sky did not fall for a long time, as if it was thunder and raining. It even seemed that when they found that they could not stop their steps, they began to gradually dissipate slowly. It was quite strange and made people feel a little strange.

However, before they could think about it, another strange thing happened in the woods in front of them.

It's getting foggy!
