Chapter 357: Foxes Are Better at Deceiving People

The two sika deer had already turned back to their original appearance, looking like normal sika deer.

"Can you speak?"

The Daoist stood in the forest with a sword, asking the wild deer on the ground.

If seen by ordinary people, they would definitely feel strange.

"Yes! Can speak! Immortal Master, spare my life!"

The yaoguai deer pressed under the fox said repeatedly.

"I have questions to ask you. Whether you answer or not does not have much impact on me, but it is very important to your fate." Lin Jue said.

"If I answer, can the Immortal Master spare us?"

"You Daoist are truly kind! It does not have much impact on you, then why do you still ask? Are you really here to show us kindness and deliberately spare us?" said the other yaoguai deer whose hind leg was pierced by the flying sword.

But as soon as it finished speaking, the fox turned around and slapped it too.

"It does not matter if you do not speak, I am not in a hurry for this moment. Even if your screams are heard by other yaoguai and they come to rescue you, it is exactly what I want." Lin Jue stood still, very calm, as if he really did not care about the possible assistance of these two yaoguai deer. "It is just that behind me, there is also a person who is good at interrogation. If you fall into his hands, you will suffer a lot."

Both yaoguai deer opened their eyes wide.

Seeing that he was really standing here, with no intention of leaving, and being in the yaoguai mountain, he was calm, so they immediately understood that this Daoist might really not be simple.

At least different from those they had met before.

Plus this huge five-tailed white fox...

"Are you... are you the Daoist who beheaded General Wolf last year?" The yaoguai deer pressed by the fox remembered.

"Not so." Lin Jue said, "The one who beheaded General Wolf is still behind, it is the one I just mentioned. If you do not tell me, go and tell him."

"I will say! I will say! It will not say, I will say!" The yaoguai deer with the pierced hind leg shouted, "Cultivation is not easy, I have not yet been assigned blood food, I beg the Immortal Master to spare my life!"

"Then I will ask you first, after your Great King was defeated, it hid for a year, why did it come out to plunder the people again recently?"

"I will say! Because our Great King was defeated, suffered heavy losses, the original four generals only have two left, and one was seriously injured. The two newly replenished generals have less cultivation, and the yaoguai soldiers under the Great King also suffered heavy losses last year, so they must be replenished." The yaoguai deer said, "Yaoguai cultivation is very slow. If you want fast progress, you must eat people. The world is about to be in chaos. If you do not replenish, you will fall behind others."

"Fall behind others? Fall behind whom?"

"The Wang Mu of the West in the east!"

"Wang Mu of the West..."

Lin Jue nodded, lost in thought.

"Confused! Do you think that if you say it, he will let you go? Even if he lets you go, after you go back, how can the Great King not kill you?" The yaoguai deer pressed by the fox hated that it was not living up to expectations.

The fox lowered its head and did not speak, just separated a claw and pressed the deer yaoguai's mouth.

With a body the size of a water buffalo, it did not need to use force, just pressing down with its weight, this small deer yaoguai, let alone speaking again, immediately felt difficulty even breathing.

Lin Jue glanced at that side and continued to ask: "How many generals are under the Leopard King now?"

"Still four!"

"What are they?"

"General Baodeng is a wood root yaoguai, General Dragon Saber is a lizard yaoguai. As for the two newcomers, we are not familiar with them either, only knowing there is a mountain yaoguai, and a snake yaoguai..."

"Where are the plundered people?"

"Some have been eaten, some are still locked in the pen."

"In the pen..." Lin Jue narrowed his eyes, "When will your Great King come out to plunder the people again?"

"Three days later, come out of the mountains from Cangshi County!" The yaoguai deer said tremblingly, "This is a secret, I told the Immortal Master, the Immortal Master must spare me!"

Lin Jue looked at it and suddenly smiled: "You speak quite fluently."

"The small one has attained the Dao for some years."

The yaoguai deer's hind leg was in severe pain and shivering.

However, it did not notice that the fox pressing its companion had been tilting its head, carefully examining its expression.

"It is deceiving people!"

The fox suddenly opened its mouth and said a sentence.

"I did not! The small one is telling the truth!" The yaoguai deer was panicked when it heard this and screamed, not even caring about the wound on its hind leg.

"Still deceiving people!"

"Immortal Master, please see clearly! The small one dare not!"

"Also deceiving people!"

"Immortal, Immortal Master, do not listen to its nonsense!"

"Fox! Better at deceiving people!"

"Immortal Master, you must believe me!"

"Fox! Better than you!"

"Immortal Master..."

But he saw the Daoist standing in place, looking down at it, not speaking.

The fox did not answer again, but suddenly turned its head, looked at the other side of the Leopard Forest and called out:

"Ying~~"

"Hm?"

"Over there! Someone is coming!"

Only then did the Daoist turn his head and look at that side.

"Close!"

The fox continued to speak.

"I will go and see, you stay here and watch them, do not let them run away."

"Know!"

The fox answered obediently.

Lin Jue opened his palm, handed a small handful of beans to it, and walked into the dense forest with his sword.

After walking a few hundred steps, he passed through the dense forest and came to the small stream with golden reed clusters and meadows. The stream flowed through the earth like a jade belt, and a group of people was walking over.

Not yaoguai, but Daoist Jiang's group.

Lord Luo's group also caught up with them. At the same time, they also saw Lin Jue.

Both sides looked at each other.

This Daoist has great courage. Alone, he dared to come to the Great King's doorstep to catch scouts, and made such a big noise, yet he was not afraid at all and did not run.

Worthy of being the Daoist who killed General Wolf.

Although the two of them did not resist, they thought that even if they resisted, it would be in vain.

That fox is also truly terrifying!

A five-tailed white fox, if it had a few more tails, wouldn't it be like the legendary Great Sage among yaoguai?

And it actually saw through the lies of the two of them!

Pity, pity...

Pity this Daoist is too stupid, and the fox is not smart either. They just did not resist, and they actually thought they were as weak as ordinary wild deer? Some movement in the forest made them think that some yaoguai had come again, leaving them behind and only sending a soldier here to watch them!

Please... collect_ (!)

The yaoguai deer stood up like a person, looking left and right.

I do not know where he put the companion.

"Forget it!"

As long as this soldier is killed, they can escape.

Pity that brother did not have such good luck...

The yaoguai deer thought so.

The bad news is that both yaoguai deer thought so.

In the dense forest, both yaoguai deer stood like people, both rushing forward, one strong and strong, one with an injured hind leg, but more fierce, colliding in an instant.

The deer antlers crossed, and it seemed that sparks were bursting out.

A white fox the size of a cat sat on the tree trunk beside, watching carefully.

"Daoist Friend Lin!"

"Daoist Master!"

"True Man Lin!"

"How is the scouting?"

"You all came just in time, and Lord Luo also came just in time." Lin Jue said, "Just caught two small yaoguai, good at hiding their shape, should be the Leopard King's scouts."

"Did you ask anything?" Lord Luo asked.

"Asked, but these two small yaoguai are quite cunning, actually playing two roles, wanting to deceive me. Pity they were seen through by my Fuyao." Lin Jue said, "My Fuyao discovered you were coming, so it used secret language to let me walk away for a while, so it could let those two small yaoguai see the real ability to tease people, so it could ask something. However, since Lord Luo is here, it can be handed over to Lord Luo."

"Go and see!"

Lord Luo's tone was still silent, and he walked forward with his spear.

As they got closer, some movement came over.

There were deer screams, violent collisions, panting, roars, it seemed that a life-and-death struggle was going on ahead.

Some vigilant martial artists and strange people had already drawn their weapons and pinched magic formulas, and some bypassed left and right, looking around in all directions, not even letting go of the top of their heads, vigilant against the yaoguai in the forest.

Suddenly, the movement ahead became smaller.

Then came a stumbling footstep.

He saw a yaoguai deer as tall as a person, standing like a person, running over. It had a deer head, deer antlers on its head, blood on its horns and hands, an injury on its leg, limping, desperately trying to escape while panting heavily, constantly looking behind.

Some martial artists had already drawn their bows and arrows.

However, True Man Lin, who was walking in the front, did not move, and Lord Luo did not move either, so they naturally did not act rashly, just watching this yaoguai deer stumble over.

Yet they never expected that after this exhausted yaoguai deer saw them, it actually showed an expression of surviving a disaster.

"Ge, General! Quickly report to the Great King! Those people really came! It is just that I have not seen other Daoists yet, and I am not sure if they are really fewer than last year, but the Daoist who beheaded General Wolf last year came to us! I used the previous preparations to deceive him, and only then did I escape!"

The crowd looked at each other and looked at the yaoguai deer.

The yaoguai deer also looked up at Lord Luo.

But suddenly felt some confusion.

This general... although a yaoguai...

Why does he look so strange?

And isn't General Baodeng's precious lamp lost? Why is it still in his hand?

Other yaoguai soldiers also look very strange.

Could it be a newly attained yaoguai? Newly recruited soldiers?

Having just experienced a life-and-death struggle, the eyes were already blurred, and suddenly they became even more blurred.

When the eyes recovered, it found that the withered and thin General Baodeng in front of it was slowly becoming strong and tall, actually turning into a human martial artist with a full beard, looking at it coldly, and the precious lamp in his hand had also turned into a bright silver spear.

This, this person?

Isn't that General Wolf's silver spear?

Not only that, behind this human martial artist, those "yaoguai soldiers" had all turned into Daoists, strange people, and martial artists, all looking at it.

"This..."

The yaoguai deer was stunned.

Looking back behind—

Deep in the dense forest, where are there any human soldiers defeated by it? Only the other yaoguai deer lying on the ground, already covered in blood.

The fox had not gone far, just sitting on the tree, tilting its head to look at it.

Those eyes, transparent like glaze, clear like lake water, only revealing a little bit of doubt.

Before it could recover, a martial artist bypassed behind it, grabbed it directly, and pressed it under Lord Luo's feet.

The yaoguai deer was immediately in despair.

The crowd also looked at each other, feeling strange and admiring, not knowing what kind of ability this was.
