The evil wizard drank the magic potion he brewed and turned into a fat caterpillar, which was then covered by Ling Yu in a glass jar.
The group of people returned to the direction of the town, and the Frog Prince decided to join the others. Perhaps in his opinion, being with a powerful person would give him a better chance of achieving his goal and breaking the curse.
What's more, Gu Wenyu recognized his true identity from the first moment he saw him, which was not easy.
The prince was full of curiosity about Gu Wenyu, who could control Lingyu, the "devil", and also owned a powerful mount. Even the accompanying Christmas tree was very unique.
Gu Wenyu has no objection to bringing the Frog Prince with him. The deeper the friendship between the two parties, the more secure Andy's life will be in the future.
Before dawn, the group of people returned to the town. Huo Huo had already transformed into a human form to avoid causing commotion.
This operation surprised John Unwin, "Oh my God! Mr. Fire, it turns out that you are also cursed by magic?"
John jumped from Gu Wenyu's shoulder to Huo Huo's shoulder, "Mr. Huo, how did you break the curse and become a human again? Can you teach me?"
Huo Huo scratched his head in embarrassment, "Me? I breathe, hunt and eat every day, and then suddenly one day I can become a human."
John jumped on Huohuo's shoulder. He seemed very excited, "Wow~ Mr. Huo is really awesome. Can Mr. Huo teach me how to hunt?"
Huohuo looked at John's small body and seemed to be thinking about what this small body could hit.
John thought Huohuo didn't want to teach her, so he added, "Mr. Huo, I will definitely be your most diligent student!"
Huohuo glanced at Gu Wenyu's back and saw that she had no objection, so he smiled stupidly and said: "Hehehe~ Then you can go hunting with me tomorrow."
John started jumping up again, "Really! Teacher, can I really learn from you?"
"Ha~" Ling Yu glanced at the two of them and let out a disdainful laugh.
Gu Wenyu also looked back. Her expression was a little strange. She didn't know whether to tell John that Huo Huo's method might not be able to help him become a human again.
But in the end, amid the cheers of the little frog, Gu Wenyu chose to shut up.
What if a little frog can also practice cultivation?
Let him be...
The town is very quiet late at night, there is no one on the road, only dim street lights stand on both sides of the road.
There are only footprints of Gu Wenyu and his party on the streets covered with heavy snow. Every house has turned off the lights, and the children are looking forward to Santa Claus's gifts.
Only the old carpenter's house was brightly lit, with a warm fireplace burning. The grandfather and grandson were sitting on the sofa in the living room, seemingly waiting for Gu Wenyu and the others to come back.
"Knock knock knock~" Gu Wenyu shook off the snow covering his body, and then knocked on the door.
"Squeak~" The door was opened immediately, and Pinocchio's wooden head stuck out. Seeing that it was Gu Wenyu and others coming back, he immediately jumped up happily and hugged Gu Wenyu, "Wow~ you are finally back!"
Gu Wenyu smiled and patted Pinocchio on the back, "Well, I'm back."
The old carpenter also walked quickly to the door and greeted everyone, "Come in, come in, don't freeze."
A group of people filed into the house and greeted the old carpenter one by one.
It was John's first time visiting the old carpenter's house, and he also took the initiative to say hello: "Hey, hello, old sir, and hello, the wooden boy."
"Ah~ frogs can talk!" Pinocchio covered his mouth in surprise.
Gu Wenyu introduced: "This is Prince John. He became like this because he was cursed by an evil wizard."
"How pitiful." Pinocchio looked at the Frog Prince sympathetically.
"Qua~"
After everyone entered the house, Pinocchio looked outside the house again to make sure that there was no evil wizard. He was still a little disappointed.
After closing the door, Pinocchio sighed softly: "Hey..."
The old carpenter immediately smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, just hope the children come back safely."
"Grandpa~" Pinocchio hugged the old carpenter with some fear.
"It's okay, grandpa will take you out of here. It's okay, Pinocchio." The old carpenter also hugged Pinocchio and patted his back gently.
Gu Wenyu smiled and said, "You don't have to move."
Huohuo also nodded immediately and said: "Yes, yes! The big bad guy has turned into a caterpillar!"
"Bang!" As Huo Huo finished speaking, Ling Yu placed the glass jar containing the caterpillars on the table. He was so strong that the water glass on the table jumped up.
"Quack!" The little frog who was sitting on the table was so frightened that he jumped three feet high and jumped directly back onto Huo Huo's shoulder.
The old carpenter and Pinocchio were also startled, but after the fright, they both looked at the wriggling caterpillar in the glass jar with question marks on their faces.
For a moment, except for the crackling sound of firewood, no one spoke in the room.
Ling Yu still looked indifferent.
Huohuo looked at Pinocchio and the old carpenter expectantly, as if he was waiting for praise.
Bald Lao couldn't speak at all.
John was frightened and didn't know what was going on, so he didn't dare to speak easily.
Gu Wenyu smiled, already thinking about the wooden body of the white-faced fox.
Pinocchio and the old carpenter looked at the caterpillar first, then at each other, and then at the caterpillar again.
Finally, Pinocchio pointed to the glass jar and asked: "Is this... the bad guy?"
"Yes, yes! We beat him until his mother didn't even recognize him! Then we turned him into a caterpillar!" Huohuo placed his fists on the table with his hands, nodding like garlic, with words written all over his face.
Zhu: Praise me quickly!
Pinocchio blinked, "But...it's just a caterpillar..."
Huohuo continued to nod, "Yes! It's a caterpillar! We have become! Aren't we very powerful?"
The old carpenter sighed. He obviously didn't believe that the evil wizard could turn into a caterpillar.
"Kid, it's okay. It'll be great if you can come back safely. We will leave tomorrow."
Huo Huo became anxious when he heard this. He waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, he is really a bad guy!"
"It's true. Old sir, the evil wizard turns into a caterpillar only after drinking the magic potion." The little frog also proved to Huo Huo.
There was a slight change in the old carpenter's eyes. It seemed that... the prince could turn into a frog. Maybe the evil wizard could really turn into a caterpillar?
Gu Wenyu said with a serious expression: "Grandpa Carpenter, if you still don't believe it, wait until dawn, we can go to the forest together and have a look. The evil wizard has really been captured by us. This glass jar originally contained the transformed caterpillar.
's magic potion."
"Is this...really...an evil wizard?" The old carpenter finally believed it.
Even so, in order to reassure the old carpenter and Pinocchio, after dawn the next day, Gu Wenyu and Huohuo took the old carpenter back to the forest and saw people going to the empty house and the beaten-up house.
The old carpenter finally believed the words of Gu Wenyu and others.
In fact, after seeing Huo Huo's true form, the old carpenter already believed that Huo Huo had the ability to fight against the wizard.
In the next few days, Gu Wenyu and his party stayed at the old carpenter's house, waiting for the old carpenter to carve a wooden fox.
Although he was only carving a small wooden fox, the craftsmanship of each joint of the little fox was very cumbersome. In order to thank Gu Wenyu and others, the old carpenter also devoted his efforts to make the little fox as perfect as possible.
