"Chen Yan!"
Li Huai shouted and charged towards me, grabbing a stool leg.
He's absolutely decisive when it matters.
A struggle flashed in Luo Tianhe's eyes, but he ultimately chose to block the door.
The fox shadow was incredibly fast, arriving in front of me in an instant. My reaction speed was simply not fast enough to keep up with it!
Her fingernails swelled up, carrying a gloomy, deathly aura, and aimed straight for my throat!
She's aiming to kill her with one blow!
The closer I got to the life-or-death situation, the calmer I became.
My grandfather once told me that the more ferocious and malevolent something is, the greater the chance it will reveal its weaknesses when it launches a counterattack before it dies!
After all, at this point, their ferocity had overwhelmed their reason.
I didn't intend to completely dodge the attack; at most, I tried to lean back as far as I could to prevent her fingernails from severing my throat artery.
As I leaned back, the yellow talisman in my left hand and the five-emperor coins in my right hand were both thrown at her.
The next moment I felt a sharp pain in my throat. Although she didn't kill me instantly by severing my trachea, she still managed to hurt me.
My vision went black, and I almost collapsed to the ground. After rolling around awkwardly on the ground, I managed to put some distance between myself and the vixen.
"Cough cough,"
I was coughing violently, and my vision was going black intermittently. My throat was not only painful, but also felt cold, as if someone had applied mentholatum to the wound in my throat.
I know this is the malevolent aura of a fox spirit. If I don't deal with it in time, even if the fox spirit stops attacking, I won't live much longer.
But this fox demon didn't give me much time to breathe!
Seeing that I was still alive, her eyes turned bloodshot and she lunged at me again with a fierce glint in them.
I was somewhat desperate; this fox demon's reaction was too fast.
I couldn't catch my breath, and now my whole body is sore and weak, so I can't mount an effective counterattack.
"Chen Yan!"
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Li Huai finally rushed over, wielding the chair leg in his hand and smashing it hard against the fox demon's head.
Although the fox demon had gone mad, its wild instincts remained.
Sensing the threat from behind, she turned around and smashed the chair leg to pieces with a single claw strike.
Without wasting any time, after smashing the chair leg, she ignored the unarmed Li Huai and pounced on me again.
However, Li Huai still managed to buy me a little breathing time.
My grandfather once told me that when a fox demon cultivates, its essence gathers in its inner core, which is usually hidden in its abdomen or chest.
However, the inner core is tough and difficult to break without powerful magical artifacts or specific techniques.
While the eyes are a weak point, they are difficult to hit.
I gripped the three-edged bone needle tightly, and hesitated for a moment.
But the fox demon didn't give me much time to hesitate; it pounced on me.
I didn't have time to think. I instinctively stabbed at the chest and abdomen that were closest to me. After all, she was moving so fast. For me to hit her eyes was simply a pipe dream.
Instantly, the fox demon's sinister smile turned into horror.
She noticed my movements, but it was too late to dodge, and she desperately twisted her body.
But it was too late. Her speed was too fast, and the kinetic energy she carried was too great, making it impossible to reverse the situation in a short time.
"Pfft!"
A soft sound, like piercing tough leather, rang out.
The three-edged bone needle was precisely inserted into her lower abdomen, all the way down to the hilt!
Time seemed to stand still at that moment.
But soon, she bumped into me, slamming me hard against the wall.
I suddenly felt a sweet taste in my throat, spat out a mouthful of blood, and could no longer hold back. My vision went black and I fainted.
......
I don't know how much time passed before I woke up from the darkness.
The moment I regained consciousness, I felt an indescribable chill and pain.
When I touched my neck, it was obvious that it had been bandaged with glutinous rice and other things.
However, the results were minimal.
Looking at my hands, which were covered in dark brown glutinous rice stained with black pus and blood, I shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Luo Tianhe, Li Huai!"
Upon hearing my voice, the two of them rushed into the room, looking at me with surprise and delight.
"Chen Yan, you're finally awake. You slept for a whole day and night. I thought you were going to kick the bucket."
Although Luo Tianhe's words were harsh, I saw that his eyes were red, so I didn't argue with him for the time being.
"If you don't know how to treat it, don't try anything. Hurry up and take me to Buwentang so that Doctor Sun can take a look at me, otherwise I'm really going to kick the bucket again."
I said, my voice tinged with pain.
"Okay, okay, I'll take you there right away."
Luo Tianhe nodded, then pulled me out of bed and carried me on his back.
"Li Huai, quickly use a navigation app to search for where Buwentang is."
As Luo Tianhe spoke, he carried me outside, and I realized that I had actually been lying in Zhao Ming's house for a day and a night.
I glanced at Zhao Ming, who was still tied up in the living room, and looked at the two of them with some surprise:
"Since I'm alive, that means the fox demon should be dead. Why is Zhao Ming still tied up?"
"Hmph, it's good that he's tied up. He won't die anytime soon, which will prevent him from going berserk again."
Li Huai, standing to the side, snorted coldly, showing no intention of untying him.
Although Luo Tianhe didn't say anything, he probably thought the same thing.
Although he was indeed controlled by the fox demon at the time, these two people were still full of malice towards him and disliked him at all.
And since neither of them are good people, I'm not surprised at all that they did something like this.
"So, what happened after I fainted? Why didn't you take me to the hospital to get checked out?"
I asked doubtfully, "Although the hospital probably can't do anything about the injuries caused by the fox demon, their methods for stopping the bleeding are at least better than those of the two of them."
Both of them were taken aback when they heard my question.
My expression immediately turned strange. These two idiots, did they not even think of taking me to the hospital?
"Brother Yan, we're both gangsters and cobblers, it's not really appropriate for us to go to a place like a hospital, is it?"
After a long pause, Li Huaicai stammered.
I didn't understand their line of thinking for a moment, so I could only roll my eyes and say helplessly:
"Okay, so what exactly happened after I fainted?"
"What else could have happened? That fox spirit turned into her true form, a big fox. And you were unconscious, so I thought I'd buy some glutinous rice bandages or something and bandage you up, but you didn't wake up until just now."
Luo Tianhe, with his back to me, spoke quickly.
I was speechless with astonishment.
These two approaches are really unconventional, but can glutinous rice really cure the evil spirits of a fox?
Since I'm awake now, it means that method actually had some effect.
Wait a minute, did they bring me glutinous rice because they saw my neck was being grabbed and it looked like I was being grabbed by a zombie?!
