Chapter 485 Transformation
There were several people and cats scattered around the main room.
Jiang Ci was guarding behind the door, Meng Shian was standing around the old couple, Murong Jinran was guarding at the window, and everyone was on high alert.
As time passed, the sound of chickens crowing suddenly came from the originally silent yard.
The old hens struggled violently and made clucking sounds.
The old lady said nervously: "The wolf is coming!"
Jiang Ci looked through the crack in the door toward the chicken coop in the yard. In the pitch-black night, only a grayish-yellow figure was flashing.
"It's not a wolf, it's a weasel."
"Weasel?" The old man was stunned. "Is Wong Tai Sin coming to eat chicken?"
"No, it seems to be looking for something." Jiang Ci watched the weasel's every move. He saw it running around the yard, as if holding something in its mouth. Whenever it arrived at a place, it would spit it out and put it down, then continue running around.
Murong Jinran was surprised and asked, "What on earth is it doing? Is it burying explosives?"
Jiang Ci said: "Don't worry, let's wait and see."
After the weasel had done everything, it suddenly stood up, pulled open the lid of a water jar without water like a human, jumped in, and used its claws to pull at the lid again, silently covering itself in the water jar.
Jiang Ci: “It’s waiting.”
"Wait?" Meng Shian asked in surprise, "Are they waiting for the wolf pack to attack?"
"Yes." Jiang Ci nodded. "This weasel has spiritual powers. I'm afraid it has been cultivating for a long time..."
Logically, it should have transformed into a human form, but it hasn't. I guess it's still accumulating merit.
If it rescues the old couple tonight, the merit it gains might allow it to successfully transform.
"No one is allowed to go out without my order later," Jiang Ci instructed them.
Everyone didn't understand what he meant, but nodded obediently.
It was midnight, the time when everything was the quietest.
There was a commotion in the chicken coop again. The old hens seemed to be extremely frightened and were screaming and flying around.
But soon the sound disappeared.
Jiang Ci saw through the crack in the door that there were three wild wolves, larger than adult Alaskan dogs, devouring an old hen in the yard.
There were a few wolf cubs nearby, also happily eating chicken.
The only sound in the yard was the sound of wanton swallowing.
After the remaining hens were all eaten, three adult wolves slowly approached the main door with vigorous steps.
A mixture of saliva and blood dripped from the sharp wolf fangs.
Drop by drop, it flowed along the yard and came to the door of the main room.
Just one door away.
Jiang Ci clearly felt the pressure coming from the three wild wolves.
These two rickety old wooden doors could be shattered into pieces with just one claw from an adult wolf.
Even through the door, she could smell the scent of the wolf, mixed with blood, which was very pungent.
She held three talismans in her hands behind her back.
As long as the three wild wolves break through the door, three talismans will be thrown out immediately.
Three wild wolves stared at the gate with murderous intent and were about to break it down.
There was a sudden burst of sound from the water tank behind him.
The three wolves looked back and saw a weasel that was not even as thick as their legs jumping out.
It stood upright, raised its paws and quickly made a gesture of pinching its fingers.
As the spell was cast, pale white magic patterns suddenly exploded around where the three wild wolves were standing, forming an encirclement and trapping the wild wolves inside.
“Ouch—”
The wild wolf howled angrily to the sky and charged into the magic pattern frantically.
While the three wild wolves were trapped, the weasel turned around and walked towards the wolf cubs.
Jiang Ci frowned slightly, "No, it's not trying to accumulate merit, it's planning to die together with the wolf pack."
"Die together?" The old man was also shocked.
Jiang Ci stared closely at the weasel's every move.
The weasel walked towards the wolf cub and stretched out his evil claws.
“Ouch—Ouch—”
Seeing their cubs being killed, the three wolves became extremely violent and attacked madly.
Cracks appeared on the magic pattern, and it seemed like it was about to break.
The weasel was pinching a wolf cub in one hand, looking at the three wolves viciously, grinning and uttering hoarse human words.
"You ate all my children. Today, even if I have to sacrifice my old bones, I will make sure that you evil wolves will be completely wiped out of this mountain!"
“Ouch—”
As the wild wolf roared angrily, all the wolf cubs had their necks broken and died.
“Oooooooh!!!!”
The wild wolf's eyes turned red with hatred. The three heads exerted their strength together, broke through the magic pattern, and rushed towards the weasel desperately.
Even though the weasel relied on its small size to avoid the attacks of the wild wolves, as time passed and its physical strength ran out, and with the three wild wolves trying to catch it frantically, it soon fell into a disadvantage.
"I'm going out to fight the evil wolf!" The old man couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go out to help the weasel.
Jiang Ci stopped him, "This is their karma, don't interfere."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wolf swung its claws at the weasel and instantly pulled off a layer of skin.
Bloody flesh and bones were exposed on the weasel's back.
It struggled to jump around, trying to activate the magic runes to trap them.
But after trying several times to condense his energy, he failed and was instead slapped by the wild wolf, causing blood to flow out of his mouth and nose.
"If this continues, Huang Daxian will definitely be beaten to death by the wolf." The old woman said with pity: "Daxian, Daxian, please help it, it is really pitiful."
Just as the weasel was about to be torn to pieces by the wolf.
Three talismans emitting golden light suddenly flew out from the crack in the door and pierced through the wolf's head.
The weasel closed its eyes tightly, thinking it was going to die, but the pain it had imagined did not come.
It opened its eyes cautiously and saw that three wolves had fallen to the ground and died.
Its eyes widened as it stared at the main door in disbelief.
"Thank you, Immortal, for saving my life."
The weasel staggered to the door, bent his legs, and knelt down solemnly towards Jiang Ci who was behind the door.
Then, he opened his mouth and sprayed.
A mouthful of blood splattered on the ground.
It trembled all over and fell straight down.
At the last second before death, it saw the door slowly open, and a girl in black slowly walked out, picked it up with one hand, and said, "You don't have much meat on you, you're so skinny."
When it opened its eyes again, it found itself lying on the dining table.
There were several people surrounding him.
There were an old couple, an old friend, and three other people.
The old man smiled and said, "Wong Tai Sin, are you okay?"
"Of course, with Master Jiang's help, even if its soul is taken away, we can pull it back from the underworld." Meng Shian said proudly.
The weasel jumped up with a start and said in disbelief: "I, I'm not dead?"
"You should have reached the time to transform. All you had to do was go down the mountain and ask for the title. It was because the evil wolf ate your children that you went astray and broke the precept of killing, right?"
Jiang Ci asked, this weasel must have killed wolves not only today, but also other wolf cubs.
