Chapter 228: The Deserted Village, the Strange Fox Statue

Gu Xi looked at Zhou Haozhe and felt that it was a little strange, but he did not take it to heart. Zhou Haozhe was not a big deal to him at all.

He said indifferently, “I hope he can turn over a new leaf after going through these things.”

This incident was just a small interlude that was instantly thrown to the back of their minds. However, they did not know that after Gu Xi walked over, a pair of vicious eyes stared at him, causing them to shudder in fear.

Zhou Haozhe was like a venomous snake that hissed in the dark, the fists under his sleeves cracking.

The few disciples beside him were laughing. Perhaps they did not notice Zhou Haozhe, or perhaps he was too engrossed in watching. In short, they accidentally bumped into him.

One of the disciples was also a hot-tempered person. He immediately scolded, “Don’t you have eyes? Watch where you’re going!”

In the past, Zhou Haozhe’s cultivation base was not bad, and his status in Moyu Tower was also quite high. If it was in the past, no one would have dared to speak to him like this.

However, now, things were different from the past. After he had made a huge mistake and was punished by Fang Qingshan, his cultivation base plummeted. Not only that, but everyone knew what he had done.

In addition, Gu Xi was a benefactor to Moyu Tower, so many disciples tried to avoid Zhou Haozhe. They even mocked him, and his status plummeted.

Usually, the disciples who were on good terms with him were worried that they would get into trouble, so they just ignored him. Moreover, they did not have much of a relationship with each other, so it could be seen that Zhou Haozhe had a bad relationship with people in the past.

“Why are you still not convinced? Do you still think that you are the old Senior Brother Zhou?!”

Hearing the sarcasm of those people, Zhou Haozhe was so angry that his eyes turned red and blue veins popped out. However, he could only forcefully endure it. He lowered his head and said, “I’m sorry.”

After those disciples had gone far away, he raised his head. His eyes were vicious. It was as if he wanted to devour them all. He looked extremely terrifying.

All of this was thanks to Gu Xi!

If it was not for Gu Xi, he would not have fallen to such a state.

Sooner or later, he would make Gu Xi pay a painful price!

The group hurried on without stopping. In front of them, they could faintly see the shadow of the village. It was sparse and looked very desolate.

Not knowing what was going on ahead, Li Junyan reminded them, “Everyone, be careful.”.

They did not know if it was Gu Xi’s imagination, but they felt that there was something different about the village in front of them. However, they could not tell what exactly was different.

When they got closer, they saw that it was even more desolate.

Looking around, they saw that there were collapsed houses everywhere. There were only a few that were well-preserved, and no one lived in them. It seemed that they had been abandoned a long time ago.

Li Junyan said in surprise, “I remember that there used to be a village here. How did it become like this?”

In such a short period of time, what exactly was the reason that caused a village to suddenly become deserted.

“There are no signs of a fight around here. There isn’t even a trace of blood. It shouldn’t be an attack by demon beasts, right?”

“Let’s split up and look around. Although this place doesn’t seem to be dangerous, it’s best not to fall behind in case anything unexpected happens.”

The group searched around. The surroundings seemed to be in a mess. It seemed that the people who left were all in a hurry. They did not even have the time to tidy up a lot of things.

The furniture and daily necessities in the room were relatively complete, but it was full of spider webs. Even the window had a hole, and the air was filled with an indescribable strange smell.

A few female disciples in the group all covered their noses, revealing looks of disdain.

“Ah!”

They only heard a sharp female voice, and everyone thought that something had happened, so they hurried over.

The female disciple’s face was pale. She pointed to a corner with a trembling finger and stammered, “A black shadow ran over.”

After seeing the creature’s appearance, the others comforted her, “It’s just a rat.”

It turned out to be a false alarm.

Gu Xi’s spiritual sense was sharp. He vaguely sensed that something was watching him from the dark. He suddenly turned his head and saw a pair of eyes with a strange smile. They were filled with unspeakable strangeness and strangeness.

Seeing that thing standing silently behind everyone, as if it had come to life, it almost gave people a fright.

Seeing that Gu Xi seemed to have noticed something and could not take her eyes off it, Fang Qinyu asked curiously, “Brother Gu, what are you looking at? You’re actually so engrossed in it.”

Following his gaze, Fang Qinyu’s face turned pale, and she almost cried out in surprise. She could not help but grab Gu Xi’s sleeve tightly, as if she could feel a sense of security just like that.

She asked with a trembling voice, “Brother Gu, what is that?”

The others had also discovered this thing. It just stood quietly in the corner. If it was not for the mouse’s movement, which attracted everyone’s attention, no one would have been able to notice it.

Gu Xi slowly walked over, picked up the thing in the corner, and gestured to everyone.

It was actually a fox statue!

Ordinary people would offer something in order to obtain protection. However, these were usually divine being like Gods and Buddhas, and it was rare to see people offering offerings to a fox.

One of the female disciples could not help but say, “This fox is so strange…”

The fox was sitting upright like a human, and it was wearing clothes, which made it seem somewhat out of place.

The most important thing was that pair of protective eyes. It looked at the crowd with a strange smile. It looked extremely evil. If it was not for the fact that there was no strange aura from it, people would believe that it was an evil object.

Its gaze seemed to be following their every move. For a moment, everyone felt their scalps and hair stand on end.

Li Junyan could not help but frown and said, “Why would ordinary people worship such a thing?”

It really did not look like a good item.
