The dawn was just beginning to break, the east was turning white, and only a few morning stars remained in the sky, still twinkling with faint light.

The road leading to the east outside the village was wet with night dew. The green grass on both sides of the road swayed in the morning breeze, and dewdrops rolled on the tips of the grass, flashing dazzling light.

A group of people came forward, surrounded by a well-dressed man with an elegant demeanor and a dignified bearing. The group hurried through the crowd, causing a commotion among the villagers, who stopped to watch.

This person's name is Qingrong. He is a Pokémon Master that the village chief had recruited from outside the village. He is said to be extremely powerful. He brought his men to the village to help eliminate the Pokémon that were causing trouble. Initially, many people in the village suspected that the village chief had been deceived, but after seeing Qingrong, all doubts were dispelled. How could such a person be a scam?

Speaking of the Pokémon causing trouble in the village, this incident has been happening for some time; a month ago, some villagers discovered something strange in the Dragon Temple in the south of the village: the clay statue of the Dragon God in the temple was knocked over, and fox hair was found on the ground.

This scared the people in the village. The elders said that it was a fox demon coming down the mountain to harm people. The young people didn't believe it and didn't take it seriously until more than ten days ago, when Zhang the butcher at the west end of the village was found dead in his home. He had turned into a mummy and fox hair was found on the ground.

Such a horrific incident, coupled with the spread of rumors by some people with ulterior motives, caused everyone in the village to feel insecure.

After that, no one died or anything strange happened in the village. The villagers, believing the fox demon had left, began to relax their vigilance. Five days ago, another villager was sucked dry and turned into a mummy. The villagers were so frightened they dared not even leave the house. The village chief mustered his courage and, along with several strong young men, left the village to seek help from a skilled Pokémon trainer.

It was unknown if the village was truly blessed by the Dragon God, but the village chief had searched several towns before he found a Pokémon Master like Qingrong.

Qingrong stayed at the village chief's house and told him to tell everyone to return home early tonight and not to go out if they heard any noise. He would capture the fox demon that night. The villagers were delighted to hear this news. They packed up and went home at 3 p.m., locking their doors tightly. The village fell silent, with only the occasional barking of dogs and crowing of chickens as the sounds echoed.

At this moment, at the village chief's house.

Qingrong looked at the nervous village chief and smiled, "Don't worry! I will catch the evil fox demon tonight."

The village chief swallowed his saliva and hesitated, "But what if the fox demon doesn't come tonight? What if we alert the snake and it takes advantage of your absence to retaliate against the village?"

Qing Rong put down his teacup and sighed, "Let me explain it to you! The so-called fox demon is most likely a rebellious fox-type Pokémon. It came down the mountain to eat people because of the food shortage in the cold winter and your village's frequent gathering of mountain products, so it ran into the village to cause trouble. However, it is very cautious and only chooses to attack at night because the darkness allows it to escape more easily. And my Pokémon also has excellent vision at night, do you understand?"

The village chief smiled awkwardly: "I am just a humble man with limited knowledge, please don't blame me, Master!"

Qing Rong shook his head and said, "It's okay, I just hope you can believe in my ability!"

The village chief nodded: "Since the Heavenly Master has confidence, then I feel at ease."

Qing Rong stood up and knelt, saying, "Since I've been invited, I must do my best. Village Chief, we need to start preparing!"

The village chief was stunned for a moment. Seeing Qingrong staring at him, it took him a while to come back to his senses. He understood what Qingrong meant and quickly said with a smile, "Master, you guys are busy. I'll go back to my room first."

Qingrong nodded, and the village chief turned and left, closing the door.

Qing Rong turned around and looked at the three men following him, and whispered: "Be careful tonight, don't make any mistakes!"

The oldest middle-aged man among the three nodded and said, "Don't worry! Sir, I will take good care of the villagers and will definitely not cause you any trouble."

Qing Rong nodded and said, "Having you here makes me feel a lot more at ease. Okay, the three of you go and make good preparations. Today's operation cannot afford to make any mistakes."

When the three heard Qingrong say this, they left one by one. Qingrong was left alone in the room, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face.

At 5:00 a.m., the last ray of afterglow in the sky suddenly disappeared, and a round moon rose from the eastern sky. The vast earth gradually became brighter, and the bright silver light spread all over the fields. The village houses showed vague outlines, and the dark, sparkling tiles were covered with a layer of moonlight like frost and snow, which looked like a dream and the scenery was charming.

A fiery red fox carrying a woman leaped onto a bamboo bridge in the moonlight like an elf.

She looked towards the southeast corner of the village and whispered, "Qinglong, come out!"

Qing Rong walked out from the shadows in the southeast corner and asked in a deep voice, "Have you found the ruins?"

Suzaku stroked the fur of the Nine-Tailed Fox beside him and frowned slightly: "I found it, but I can't get in."

Qing Rong didn't care when he heard that. "Just demolish it!"

Zhuque raised an eyebrow slightly, "Isn't that too much noise?"

"Kang Jinlong and the others stayed in the village. I've also told the villagers here that they won't be able to find anything unusual for a while."

"it is good!"

Zhuque took Qinglong to the ancient ruins she had found with ease.

The surface of the ruins was barren, overgrown with weeds and tangled vines. This ancient ruin was buried beneath, and Suzaku, who had arrived early, had already unearthed the entrance.

The entrance gate of the ruins was tightly closed. The ancient bronze door was covered with moss and traces of time, and only the ancient characters engraved on it could be vaguely discerned.

Although the bronze door has been eroded by countless years, it still remains strong.

Zhuque tilted his head slightly, looked at Qinglong, and said softly: "This is the entrance to the ruins. I can't find a way to open it."

Qinglong nodded slightly, "Let's demolish it by force."

Suzaku understood, and Kyuubi took graceful steps and came to the bronze door.

Qinglong also took out the Poké Ball and released Charizard.

Nine-Tailed Fox and Charizard gathered their strength at the same time, the air around them became scorching hot, and two powerful jets of flame spewed out of their mouths, sweeping towards the bronze gate.

The light of the flames illuminated the entire entrance to the ruins. The scorching temperature distorted the air, and Suzaku and Qinglong's vision became blurred.

The two jets of flame hit the bronze door, burning the moss on it into ashes.

The ancient words on the bronze door were revealed and began to shine with a mysterious light, as mysterious and dazzling as the stars twinkling in the sky at this moment, like an inverted Milky Way.

The light grew stronger and stronger, as if a mysterious power was awakening.

Then, these ancient characters emerged as hundreds of totems of various shapes, each emitting a mysterious aura.

They quickly formed a line of defense and jointly released mysterious power to keep the jets of flames out of the door.

The flames splashed everywhere under the resistance of the mysterious power. Qinglong frowned at this sudden change, "Unknown Totem!"

Suzaku chuckled, "Looks like we've found the right place."

"Stop talking nonsense and solve it quickly."
