I didn't intend to be a Fairy

The sky gradually darkened.

At first, people lit torches just to strengthen their courage and ward off evil spirits, but later they relied on torches for lighting.

The Liao family residence was extremely lively tonight.

Everyone searched patiently, not missing any corner. Even the mouse holes had to be pried open to see if the golden toad was hiding inside.

Not only do you have to be careful when looking for things, you also have to be careful when walking.

Everyone in the Liao family thought of what the Immortal Master had said in the afternoon, that the golden toad was either hiding or knew some kind of invisibility method, so after some discussion and discussion of countermeasures, they finally sprinkled a thin layer of toad inside and outside the house. Thin flour, now they have to be more careful when walking in and out, they can only step on the previous footprints.

It was okay during the day, but when it got dark, every time I walked in or out, I had to lower the fire lantern and shine it on the footprints on the ground.

"did you find it?"

"No!"

"Where could this thing be hiding?"

"Look carefully! That thing is inconvenient to move around. When we originally wanted to move it, we were told to move it. It can't go too far!"

"I've searched all over..."

Everyone was anxious and helpless.

Even as time goes by, and the hard work and no results come, the fierceness and courage that were mustered up before are slowly fading, and some people are starting to feel a little drummed in their hearts.

Empress Sanhua was still sitting on the wall of the courtyard with an expressionless face. She only stared down at the people coming in and out below, observing secretly and keeping silent.

An old man with white beard and hair was sitting on a chair. He also turned to look at his descendants. Seeing that they could not be found for a long time, he was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his eyebrows, tapped the ground with his walking stick, and said angrily:

"Find them all for me! Don't be lazy! That thing can't escape from this house! The second brother is going to bring me firewood, and the eldest brother is going to count the valuable things in the house and take them all out. If you can't find them tonight, If I burn this house down, I won’t suffer any more harm from it!”

"father……"

"Master!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this and tried to persuade him one after another.

Even the neighbors who were watching the excitement at the door and did not dare to come in were shocked. Even the girl sitting on the eaves of the courtyard wall couldn't help but be startled, staring down at the old man.

"No nonsense! Compared with the whole family being tortured to death by that thing, how much does a house cost? It's a big deal and we can build it again! There is Yangjiang behind our house, and there is still some distance from the neighbors on the left and right, so we can't burn it to others. , what are you afraid of?"

Although the old man's voice was hoarse and his words were garbled, his words still echoed in the courtyard and everyone could hear them, and the courage in his words was even more admirable.

Then the courtyard became even more chaotic.

Everyone searched more carefully and became more and more panicked. Occasionally, some people moved out gold and silver belongings and valuable furniture, while others moved in dry firewood.

Sanhua Empress was already a little bored sitting on the eaves of the courtyard wall. She couldn't help but change her posture, from sitting upright to supporting her chin with her hands. She was still staring down, but she couldn't help but yawn. and blinked.

At this moment, she was suddenly stunned.

Then there was a brush, and she turned her head and stared straight at an open space in the courtyard. There was nothing there, but she didn't blink.

After looking at it for a few times, he glanced at the old man again, thoughtfully.

Then he continued to stare into the courtyard, his eyes moving slowly.

But wherever she looked there was still nothing.

The old man in the courtyard was still sitting and looking at her from time to time. Everyone in the courtyard was still coming and going, searching carefully, but no one found anything unusual.

Empress Sanhua's eyes moved slowly, her head lowered lower and lower, until the focus of her eyes had moved from the courtyard to a position near the door, her head lowered very deeply, and then she raised her head and looked at the old man. Then he looked at the other people around him and said:

"Don't let it get away!"

The voice was clear and thin, not loud, but it attracted everyone's attention instantly.

This was the first thing she said after entering the courtyard and jumping up the courtyard wall.

The old man who was sitting in the middle of the courtyard and presiding over the overall situation had been looking at her. Hearing this, he immediately tapped the ground with his walking stick and shouted: "Look more at the footprints on the ground!"

The old man's prestige was very high, and when everyone heard what he said, they immediately followed it.

The torches immediately hung down and the lanterns were lowered, all close to the ground. Everyone bent down and searched carefully on the ground.

"wrong!"

Suddenly a sharp-eyed person noticed something was wrong.

It was not that they saw extra footprints in the open space, but that there were human footprints where they had previously stepped. The flour had not been completely wiped away, but the flour in the footprints had become very small. But On top of a series of vague footprints, there are a few more tiny dots, as if they were pressed by fingers.

It was blurry and intermittent, and it was night, so I couldn't see clearly unless I looked carefully.

Just when the man saw this, a few fuzzy small footprints appeared out of thin air among the large footprints in front of him, with very short intervals.

"ah!"

The man was immediately frightened and took two steps back, pointed forward, and shouted: "Here!"

One sentence made countless people look back.

"where?"

"Here! Can't see!"

"call……"

Suddenly someone came over with a torch.

It was obviously sweeping through the air close to the ground, but when it passed over a footprint, it seemed to hit something heavy and hard——

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound and sparks flew everywhere.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

There was the sound of a metal object rolling on the ground, rolling several times in succession. The thin layer of flour on the ground also showed its rolling trajectory, which did not seem to be very round.

"it's here!"

"Can't see it!"

“Flour!”

"flour!"

"It's running!"

The evil thing panicked for a while, and no longer cared about following people's footprints or hiding its whereabouts, and began to run out the door. There was a thin layer of flour on the ground, and it left many footprints, each of which was only the size of a fingernail. It's about the same size, as if it were pressed out with your fingers, and the flour stained by it is not obvious when you push it away.

"It's getting out!"

"Here comes the flour!"

"It hit my foot!"

Someone ran over with a basin of flour.

Someone quickly closed the door, but the neighbors who were still watching the show outside the door had already left in a hurry as if avoiding snakes and scorpions.

"call……"

Suddenly there was a gust of wind in the courtyard.

Wherever the dark wind blew, the people who used to live in the Liao family's house suddenly felt their stomachs twitching. They couldn't help but bend down and spit out black water from their mouths with a whoosh.

"Wow..."

The black water smelled fishy and unpleasant, like the water produced by meat fermented in a barrel on a hot day. As soon as it hit the ground, it splashed everywhere. When the wind blew, the whole house was filled with a fishy and unpleasant smell.

Immediately, everyone felt like their stomachs were twisted like knives, and they were in unbearable pain.

The same was true for the man who brought the flour. His hand suddenly lost strength and the flour basin fell to the ground with a clang.

However, the relatives from far and near who came to help and the martial arts warriors who paid money were not disturbed, and at most they only felt a chill. Seeing that the flour basin fell to the ground and a lot of flour was sprinkled on it, a middle-aged man reacted quickly and quickly picked up the basin and poured it in front. A martial artist also reacted when he saw this and reached out to hold the flour on the ground. Sprinkle it forward.

Those who vomited black water are still vomiting, and the flour has also fallen to the ground.

The flour stuck to the black water and immediately became sticky, outlining the crawling figure.

It was about the size of a palm and could be vaguely identified as a toad.

But it crawled very slowly and its movements were stiff.

"Over there!"

Another group of people rushed forward.

The girl sitting on the wall of the courtyard couldn't help but rub her nose, showing an expression of disgust, but she refused to look away, but still stared down, watching everyone catch the golden toad.

It's just that for some reason, many people reach out to grab it, but they either grab it on the left or right side. Their hands are either forward or behind, or they just can't touch it.

On the contrary, a group of people butted heads with each other, and the collision was serious.

The girl looked puzzled, looked at it seriously, and looked thoughtful, and then shouted:

"It's fake, don't look at it."

The voice was clear and thin, but underneath it was so messed up that few people could hear it.

But the old man hurriedly stomped on the ground with his crutch, vomiting black water and feeling extremely uncomfortable, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Close your eyes... and touch it with your hands, don't look at it!"

Everyone was confused when they heard the words, but some people heard about it.

It’s strange to say——

As soon as he closed his eyes and touched randomly, he touched the cold metal toad.

The timid ones retracted their hands with a swipe, but the bold ones held on to it. If it struggled, they would wrestle with it and shout, asking others to catch it together.

What's even more amazing is that the weak cannot touch it at all. If you touch it, you will feel a bone-deep cold, as if you put your hand into the ice water in winter. The coldness is like a knife, scraping people's bones, and they will subconsciously feel it after just a little grip. If you throw it away like an electric shock, even a physically strong person can only hold it for a short time.

In addition, the golden toad can still move and has considerable strength. It struggles in the hands and no one can hold it, so we have to keep changing people.

"I come!"

A warrior with strong vitality came over, held it in his arms, and refused to let go no matter how hard it struggled.

The toad gradually revealed its true form in his hands.

It was a palm-sized golden toad statue covered in brass, covered in flour, with its mouth opening and closing, its tongue moving in and out, and its limbs constantly kicking.

Then the toad made a pop sound, and black smoke emitted from its body. The black smoke smelled fishy and corroded the skin, making it difficult to hold it.

Seeing this, Sanhua Empress' expression became condensed. She straightened her robes and was just about to jump off the courtyard wall when she heard the martial artist snort and throw him to the ground. Then he found the copper basin that he had just filled with flour and put it on the ground. With one click, it was firmly locked inside.

At this time, the person who originally vomited the black water did not know whether he had finished vomiting or the evil thing had stopped causing trouble and had stopped vomiting. He also slowly recovered and looked at the warrior and the copper basin.

The copper basin was like gold, and it was trampled under his feet.

There was some faint movement inside.

The Liao family owned a bookstore, and when many people saw this scene, they had the same thought in their minds - if they could write it down in just a few strokes, it might also be a good and mysterious story.

"Caught!"

"Hero! Awesome!"

"Impressive!"

"Finally caught it!"

Everyone was excited for a moment and praised him repeatedly.

Not to mention them, even Empress Sanhua was surprised.

Originally, she saw black smoke coming out of the golden toad, which was finally capable of hurting people. She thought that these people couldn't handle it, so she was going to go down to help, but she didn't expect that these people only used a copper basin to cover it. Living. At this moment, black smoke is still faintly coming out from underneath, but it can hardly hurt anyone.

"Now how to do?"

Everyone looked at the old man in the middle, and then followed the old man's gaze towards the girl on the courtyard wall.

Sanhua Empress hesitated for a moment, then jumped down.
