"ah!"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Li Qiang screamed out in fright.
Pei Laoliu looked thoughtful, repeating a few words she just said, then suddenly raised his head and asked:
"Madam, just now you said that your husband went hunting in the mountains, and you don't know what he got back?"
The woman replied:
"It's a litter of foxes. Husband, he also said that in recent years, the nobles in the city are fond of this kind of fur, especially foxes, minks and other animals. The price has increased by at least 50%... Those hunters said that it is basically difficult to find foxes in the mountains now." Yes, he is lucky to have such a harvest for the first time when he goes out..."
When Pei Laoliu heard this, his expression changed.
"Fox, fox! Oh! Your husband has provoked the fox demon!"
"Fox demon?"
The woman was startled, and then a look of horror appeared on her face.
"Tao, why did the Taoist Master say that... Could it be that my husband's current appearance is all caused by the fox demon?"
Mr. Liu nodded seriously and said:
"Everything in the world has spirituality, and among them, the beige, yellow and white willow ash is the most important. As the saying goes, it is better to climb three mountains than to offend a family of immortals. That means that even if you take a detour and climb three more mountains, don't go there. Force your way into one of them’s territory! It’s a good thing your husband will kill a whole nest this time! No wonder he got entangled!”
The woman became even more frightened after hearing what he said.
Although she didn't understand what the other party meant by the beard, yellow and white willow ash, she had never heard of that so-called "common saying".
But Pei Laoliu's serious look didn't seem to be fake. Besides, she was now desperate and there seemed to be no other way except to believe in the other party.
"Taoist Priest, we really don't know this... The hunters in the city have killed so many foxes before, but there may not be anything wrong with them... Why does it happen to our husband as soon as it comes to him..."
She was already crying when she said this. If she had known this, she wouldn't have caught any foxes.
If you work harder and knit two more clothes, as long as you survive for a while and your husband finds a job, things will naturally get better. It won't be like this now.
But it's too late to say anything now.
My husband looks like he's been possessed every night, getting weaker and weaker. After asking all the doctors in the city, they still can't find a solution. Now I can only place my hope on this Taoist priest.
When Pei Laoliu was transported to a different world this time, except for the Mountain River Sword and the Fearless Suit, he didn't bring any of his old friends with him.
But those things have no practical use, they are just used to show off and fool people.
It's just that he doesn't have a compass talisman or anything in his hand at this moment, which makes him a little uncomfortable.
"Now everything in this world is resurrected, spiritual energy is surging, and all kinds of monsters and monsters are appearing. It's not peaceful at all. Your husband is going to fight some fox demon at this time. It's really... ugh!"
Mr. Liu shook his arm, looking like he hated iron.
"Rescuing people is like putting out fires. Time is running out now. Please take me to your home quickly and let me see how your husband is doing. Let's go!"
…
Half an hour later, in front of a small house in the residential area of Hanyue City.
"It seems like this is it. It's really full of evil spirit!"
Pei Laoliu looked at the mess on the ground in front of him, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
When the woman on the side saw this scene, she hurriedly ran into the house regardless of the fear in her heart.
"Husband! Husband! Where are you! What on earth is going on?"
Master Liu glanced at Li Qiang and asked him to guard outside, while he followed in.
The house of this woman's house looked even worse than the courtyard. The furniture was scattered all over the floor, and there were blood stains everywhere. It looked like it had not yet dried up, so it should have been left there not long ago.
"ah!!!"
At this time, the woman's screams suddenly came from the back room. The sound was shrill and harsh, as if she had seen the most terrifying thing.
Master Liu hurriedly walked in, and when he saw the scene in the room, he couldn't help but gasp.
I saw a piece of human skin stained with blood hanging where the door curtain used to be!
On the ground, there were human body parts scattered all over the place.
Especially for a veteran like Pei Laoliu, after seeing such a scene, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.
The scene in front of him was really terrifying, even for an outsider like Mr. Liu, let alone the woman named Xiuhui.
Xiuhui was so timid at the moment that she rolled her eyes and fainted from fright.
By the time Pei Laoliu woke her up, about ten minutes had passed.
"I, where am I..."
Xiuhui raised her head, first looked around blankly, and then her expression froze, as if she had thought of something, she hurriedly stood up from the chair and ran towards the house.
The miserable situation in the room was still the same, but this time she was not frightened and fainted. She just stood in front of the door and stared blankly at the scene inside.
"Husband, husband..."
Two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks. She had already recognized that the owner of the human skin in front of her was none other than her husband.
Pei Laoliu sighed when he saw this.
"After all, it's still a step too late..."
Obviously, Xiuhui's husband had been poisoned in the short period of time when she came out to look for her.
This is the second time Pei Laoliu has seen such a scene. The first time was by the creek in Dongyuan Village. The old woman Li was also so sad when she faced her dead son alone.
He stood there quietly for a moment, waiting for the woman to come back to her senses.
"Taoist priest, Taoist priest! My child! My child is missing!"
Xiuhui checked the bed in the room, but did not find her two children, so she was frightened and panicked again.
Pei Laoliu frowned. Judging from the corpses on the ground, it seemed that there were no children's bones among them.
At this time, Li Qiang who was outside the door suddenly ran in and said:
"Sixth Master, Sixth Master, there are many officers and soldiers coming outside, saying they want to check the situation here!"
"Officers and soldiers?"
Pei Laoliu glanced at the woman with some doubts. Could it be that the woman had already reported to the police before looking for him?
However, Xiuhui's reaction also seemed surprising. She was also a little confused and didn't know why the officers and soldiers came here.
Just as he was thinking about it, people from outside had already come in.
The leader was a man wearing dark red armor, and behind him were a group of sergeants also wearing armor.
"This is...the master of the city guard..."
Li Qiang whispered in Pei Laoliu's ear.
The latter also felt a little unexpected when he heard this.
There was a murder case in the city, and the people who came to investigate were not the police, but the city guards. This was a bit different from the system he had in mind.
"The City Guards are handling the case! Everyone else should stay away! Are you the owner of this house? What's going on here?"
A soldier came over and asked Pei Laoliu.
Seeing the other party's arrogant tone, Mr. Liu immediately turned cold and said:
"The master's house is right there. You can ask her yourself."
"Hey, you old man, why are you talking!?"
The soldier was not one to take advantage of the situation, so he stretched out his hand and pushed Mr. Liu.
However, Liu Ye didn't move at all when he pushed. Instead, he didn't pay attention and staggered back several steps.
"Bold! You old man dares to openly attack the city guards!"
The soldier came back with a red face. He also pulled out the sword from his waist and struck it down on Mr. Liu's head.
Liu Ye's eyes flashed coldly, and he drew out the Mountain and River Sword without hesitation and faced him.
“Buzz!!!”
The imaginary sound of metal clanging did not come. Instead, a strong sound of breaking through the air resounded throughout the room.
Then, the soldier's long sword was seen to be broken into two pieces in an instant, and the silver-white sword in Master Liu's hand was placed exactly on his neck, and his life could have been taken just one inch further.
No matter how arrogant the soldier was, his face turned pale with fear and he did not dare to move.
"What a sword!"
Behind the soldier, the middle-aged man shouted excitedly.
But before he could say anything more, he heard a series of "clang, clang, clang, clang" sounds in the room.
Everyone turned their heads and saw that on the right side of the old man in green, the area where the sword had just been drawn, including the walls and furniture, everything was split into two at this moment, broken into two. Cut off, collapsed and fell to the ground.
"This this……"
At this time, even the middle-aged man couldn't help showing a horrified expression.
He was originally surprised to see the sword easily cut off his own weapon, but what he didn't expect was that the opponent's swing just now actually cut the entire wall like tofu. Divine weapons are simply unheard of.
"No, that's not right... There is no weapon in this world that can do this. I'm afraid this is due to the old man's cultivation. This man can split bricks and stones so easily without revealing any inner energy. His martial arts skills The high-end ones are so terrifying..."
Thinking of this, he did not dare to neglect any more, walked up to the subordinate and shouted:
"Wang Hu! Who told you to use weapons at will! Do you still ignore the rules of the city guard!? Come here! Take him down and beat him with thirty military sticks!"
When Pei Laoliu saw this, he knew that the other party was trying to excuse him.
But now that he was in someone else's territory, he didn't want to cause too much trouble, so he took back the sword in his hand.
Along with the vibration of the Shanhe Sword, the expression on the middle-aged man's face became more curious and eager.
It is true that the opponent is a master, but this sword is definitely a rare weapon in the world. Otherwise, how could it make such a beautiful sword sound?
He cupped his fists and said:
"My Excellency, Xing Rilong is the Chief of the City Guards. Today I heard someone said that the Qian family has been doing strange things recently. I came here to lead some people to investigate. May I ask what the seniors call it? What is the name of this sword? It is so sharp. , this is the first time I’ve seen it!”
Pei Laoliu was dissatisfied with the performance of their group just now. The soldier was being aggressive, but as a commander, he had no intention of stopping him. If he had been an ordinary person, he might have been killed by the soldier's sword at this time. .
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a dull feeling in his heart.
At first, I thought that in this ancient world, I could experience the carefree life I once imagined.
But now it seems that it is not what I thought.
What's more here are the feudal thoughts that a man from the Aqua Planet cannot tolerate.
From the villagers kneeling down at every turn, to the city guards killing people whenever they disagreed, Liu Ye said he still couldn't adapt to this environment.
"You and I are not meant to be together, so what's the point even if I say my name? As for this sword, you may not recognize it even if I tell it, so there's no need to waste time."
Pei Laoliu flatly rejected his request.
"you!"
Some soldiers were angry but wanted to stand up.
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand to stop him, still smiling and said:
"Senior, what happened just now is indeed due to my poor discipline and I offended many people. Please forgive me."
He clasped his fists again and no longer struggled with the previous topic, but said:
"Before this, our city guards heard that the Qian family seemed to have encountered something strange. Some neighbors said that they often heard howls in the middle of the night... The safety of the city has always been controlled by our city guards. I am responsible, so I came over to check it out, and if I have offended anything, please forgive me, senior."
"snort……"
Pei Laoliu snorted coldly, but he didn't intend to argue with them anymore.
He pointed to the room inside and said:
"You are already late. The man of the house has been killed and the two children are missing. Only the lady is left."
Hearing this, Xing Rilong stretched his neck and looked inside. After seeing the scene inside again, his expression changed.
He quickly picked out two soldiers and walked over to carefully check the situation inside their house.
"What kind of hatred is this? Why is the perpetrator so cruel... He even gave up a whole human skin..."
He couldn't help but stop when he said this, just because the scene inside was so cruel that even if he saw it, he couldn't control it.
"Zhang Qing, Zhang Zi, go and check the situation there carefully. Don't reveal any details."
After he finished speaking, he turned to the woman to find out more about the situation.
After a while, Zhang Qing and Zhang Zi walked out of the room again, but their faces looked bad, and they also had expressions of disbelief.
