Monk Ma opened his mouth to answer Qin Shaoyou's question, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
Zhu Xiucai sighed quietly and answered for him: "Sir, Lao Wei and Lao Yao died in the battle."
"Dead in battle?"
Qin Shaoyou was shocked.
Everyone was very sad about the deaths of Wei Lishi and Yao Lishi, and Qin Shaoyou was no exception.
Although he and the two warriors had only known each other for a few days, they had experienced several dangers and fights together, and they could be regarded as brothers who lived and died together.
Especially thinking about these two people, who were still alive and kicking just a few hours ago.
One said that he would use the money seized in Wujiapu to buy a house in Luocheng to settle his wife and children.
Another said that he should take the money back to honor his old mother.
But now, the two of them are forever separated from their wives, children, and mother...
Qin Shaoyou felt really uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
"How did they die?" Qin Shaoyou's voice was hoarse and choked.
"Old Wei died to protect his child. He drove away the corpse puppets, but was attacked by a Black Lotus cult monster. We wanted to save him, but we were blocked by other Black Lotus cult monsters and corpse puppets and couldn't get through.
When Lao Wei died, he still opened his arms to protect the child in the iron cage...
As for how Lao Yao died in battle, I didn't see it.
However, colleagues who collected his body said that when they found Lao Yao's body, there were several corpses lying in a mess around him.
So Lao Yao should have died fighting hard!
I heard that after his death, Lao Yao still held the knife in his hand very tightly..."
After hearing the cause of death of Wei Lishi and Yao Lishi, Qin Shaoyou was silent for a long time before sighing: "They are all good men!"
Qin Shaoyou recalled Xue Qingshan's introduction to the warriors.
The performance of the two warriors Wei and Yao is indeed worthy of the evaluation of "brave and good at fighting".
Immediately afterwards, Qin Shaoyou asked again: "Where are the bodies of Old Wei and Old Yao? Are they in the side hall of the City God's Temple?"
"Yes." Zhu Xiucai nodded, "The bodies of our brothers who died in the battle this time are all there. We will send people to return them to their families later. If there are no family members, they will be taken to the Demon Suppression Division for burial. .”
Qin Shaoyou thought for a while and said: "In that case, let us send the bodies of Old Wei and Old Yao home... It can also be regarded as a farewell to the two Paoze brothers."
No one refused this proposal.
After all, everyone hopes that if they die, someone familiar can take their body home, say a few words of comfort to their relatives, and give them their pension and their savings in full. family.
In this chaotic world, in the Demon Suppression Division with the highest reincarnation rate.
Death can really come at any time.
After Qin Shaoyou finished speaking, no one spoke again, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing for a time.
Zhu Xiucai noticed this situation and found a topic, hoping to restore everyone's mood a little.
"Sir, you don't know yet, do you? Our Lord Xue and Mr. Zhang really got some clues from the mouths of those Black Lotus Sect monsters. Now they have sent many people to Mianyuan County. They are searching for their accomplices."
Qin Shaoyou saw Zhu Xiucai's intention and cooperated: "No wonder I saw a lot of night watchmen arresting people on the way back... Hey, among the accomplices of these Black Lotus cult monsters, are there any big ones? fish?"
"There is a really big fish."
Zhu Xiucai looked around and lowered his voice and said, "In the official office of Mianyuan County, there is a mole from the Black Lotus Sect... Guess who this mole is?"
Monk Ma and other warriors only knew that Xue Qingshan sent many night watchmen to arrest people, but they did not know that they had actually found out the mole hiding in the county government office. They couldn't help but be curious and asked:
"who is it?"
"Xiucai, please stop being so secretive. Only you can find out this kind of news. Where can we find out?"
"Zhu Xianyou, tell me quickly, who is the mole?"
Zhu Xiucai gave it a try first: "Calculate the time, this mole should have been caught. Let me tell you, it is not a leak."
Then he whispered under the urging of everyone: "Actually, we have all seen this person..."
Seeing that he was still showing off, Monk Ma raised his fist as big as a casserole.
Zhu Xiucai immediately behaved: "It's Sun Zhixian!"
"who?"
"What?"
"It's actually him?"
"Good fellow, the parents of Mianyuan County are actually with the Black Lotus Sect?"
"It's a shame that he acted in front of the people about loving the people like his own children... Thinking about it now, it's really ironic!"
Everyone was either amazed or filled with indignation.
Zhu Xiucai also lamented: "No wonder Sun Zhixian couldn't wait to announce the closure of the case after the strange painting incident. At that time, I just thought that he wanted to close the case quickly to relieve the pressure. Now I know that he was basically helping fellow Black Lotus Sect members. The party is covering up and preparing for their next plan... This magistrate of Sun County is really reading the books of sages in vain!"
Only Qin Shaoyou was not too surprised.
He has long had problems with Sun Magistrate County.
And being able to delay the reporting of a missing child case for more than two months is an energy that no ordinary official can possess.
After all, there is still Zhang Shilang in Mianyuan County.
If the inner ghost of the Black Lotus Sect was just an ordinary official, he would not be able to suppress this case at all.
Qin Shaoyou was sighing with emotion when Su Tingyu suddenly came to his side and kept sniffing.
She didn't know Magistrate Sun, and she wasn't interested in who was the mole in the Mianyuan County government office. However, it was the evil smell on Qin Shaoyou's body that attracted her attention and curiosity.
Qin Shaoyou was a little confused by her actions: "What are you doing?"
The eyes of Zhu Xiucai and others were attracted one after another. Although no one dared to boo, everyone had an expression of gloating that they had seen a good show.
Su Tingyu didn't notice this scene.
After all, her eyes were so short-sighted that it was impossible to notice them.
She raised her hand and pointed: "What do you have in this?"
Qin Shaoyou lowered his head and saw that Su Tingyu was referring to the linen tied around his waist, which contained the spider arms of the Eight-Armed Arhat.
Thinking of Su Tingyu's magical sense of smell, Qin Shaoyou thought she smelled the spider's arms and wanted to eat them.
He hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "Shh, don't make any noise, I'll give you a share."
Su Tingyu didn't like eating monsters. What she liked was experimenting with monsters.
At this moment, she heard that Qin Shaoyou was going to give her "experimental materials". She was very happy in her heart, but she said: "No need, I can smell it and know that it is of no value. What I want has already been obtained." …Do you want to share some between you?”
She also spoke softly this time.
Zhu Xiucai and others next to him tried their best to eavesdrop, but they only listened intermittently and had no idea what the two were discussing.
"No need." Qin Shaoyou thought for a while and declined.
Without a recipe, it would be of little use for him to get the ingredients, so he might as well let Su Tingyu eat them by herself.
However, he was still a little curious in his heart: What good ingredients did Master Xiao Su get? Wasn't the Painted Skin Ghost captured alive?
Su Tingyu was also wondering: Why did Qin Xiaoqi study this material that didn't smell good? Is there something special about this material that I can't smell?
At this time, there was a sudden commotion next to them, interrupting their curiosity and confusion.
