Qin Shaoyou finally did not answer Senior Brother Cui's question.
He forcibly changed the subject and asked about the situation of the water ghost's salvation.
This scratched Senior Brother Cui's itch. He didn't ask Qin Shaoyou any more, and said with a smile: "Qin Xiaoqi, don't worry, with me here, in a few days, all the water ghosts in the Jinyan River will be saved, and I will return them to both sides." For the common people, everything is calm, the river is clear and the sea is flowing."
"As expected of Senior Brother Cui, he is indeed amazing."
Qin Shaoyou first stroked his hair and praised Senior Brother Cui.
Then he raised his hand and pointed to the other side of the river.
"But you can't take it lightly. The great monks from Luohan Temple are here too. Don't let them compete."
"You're right, we can't let these monks from Luohan Temple compete with us."
Senior Brother Cui nodded repeatedly, agreeing with Qin Shaoyou's words.
He glanced at the monk on the other side, and then at the brothers on this side. His expression gradually became serious, and he cupped his hands and said, "Qin Xiaoqi, I won't talk to you anymore. These brothers of mine will be gone without me." It’s just trash, I have to go back and take care of it, so as not to be overtaken by the monks on the other side.”
"Business matters, Brother Cui, please go quickly." Qin Shaoyou returned the greeting with his hands in hand, hoping that he would leave quickly.
Senior Brother Cui bowed his hands to Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others, then flicked his sleeves, once again used the magic of shrinking the ground to an inch, and rushed towards the high platform where the salvation ceremony was performed.
If he hadn't been dripping wet all over, he would have looked really noble.
After sending Brother Cui away, Qin Shaoyou and others boarded a ferry under the guidance of the squire.
When the boat reached the middle of the river, Qin Shaoyou sensed that there were water ghosts in the river through Wu Fu's blood energy.
But the water ghosts in the river now are very different from what Qin Shaoyou and the others encountered before.
They are no longer violent, no longer full of resentment, no longer want to drag everyone who crosses the river into the water as a substitute.
Because there are two different forces that are comforting them and helping them break free from the imprisonment of the cold river water and go to the underworld.
"Sir, this is the power of salvation." Monk Ma also sensed this scene, walked to Qin Shaoyou, and said softly.
Qin Shaoyou nodded without saying a word. He turned around and took out a few pieces of oil paper from the saddlebags on his horse's back. He folded them into a paper boat, put on a candle and lit it, and then gently put the small paper boat into the river.
The paper boat carried the candlelight and slowly floated downstream.
In a daze, Qin Shaoyou seemed to see a group of people appearing in the river, bowing to him.
This is the water ghost in the river, thanking Qin Shaoyou for helping to find Taoist priests and monks to save them.
Qin Shaoyou clasped his hands in front of his chest and saluted back to the rolling river.
The ferry quickly reached the other side.
What Qin Shaoyou didn't expect was that when a group of them got off the boat and prepared to mount their horses to leave, a monk actually walked down from the altar of Luohan Temple and said hello to them.
Qin Shaoyou and others quickly returned the gift, and then heard the monk say with a smile: "Donor Qin, our host asked me to say thank you."
After some polite greetings, the monk left.
The strong man looked at his back and couldn't help but mutter: "Why does this monk from Luohan Temple want to say thank you to us adults?"
"Of course they have to thank you."
The wise Zhu Xiucai smiled and said: "Saving the water ghost is a great merit, not to mention it can bring new believers and incense money to the temple. If you ask me, these monks in Luohan Temple are just telling us adults Thank you, you are really stingy, we adults should be given some kickbacks and commissions."
All the warriors suddenly realized.
"Stop chewing your tongue and let's go." Qin Shaoyou rolled his eyes at Zhu Xiucai and called for everyone to get on their horses.
After saying goodbye to the squire who led them across the river, a group of people jumped onto the official road.
There were no further setbacks along the way, and we returned to Luocheng smoothly.
After entering the city, everyone dismounted and led their horses on foot.
When passing by the pastry shop, Qin Shaoyou went in and bought something before returning to the Demon Suppression Department.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the gate of the Demon Suppression Department, he was stopped by someone.
"Qin Xiaoqi, you should hand back the supernatural items today, right?"
The visitor stared at Qin Shaoyou, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
It was Zhao Yuan, the caretaker of the spirit room.
"Hey, Lao Zhao, when did you come back?" Qin Shaoyou asked curiously.
In the previous case in Mianyuan County, Zhao Yuan followed Xue Qingshan with a batch of supernatural items.
"I just got back yesterday..." Zhao Yuan replied, and then urged: "Don't change the subject, return the supernatural items quickly. You have been using them for so many days, and the case in Mianyuan County is over. If you don't return them, , but it really doesn’t make sense.”
"Okay, I'll hand it back to you right now."
Qin Shaoyou readily agreed, took off the saddle from the horse, handed the horse to Liao Lishi and others, and asked them to take care of the stables. Then he followed Zhao Yuan to the spiritual object room and took out the supernatural objects he had received one by one. Come out and return it.
Such a cheerful attitude made Zhao Yuan and the other night watchmen in the spirit room a little surprised and unbelievable.
They originally thought that their request for supernatural items would be blocked again today, and they had even made up their minds. If Qin Shaoyou still refused to return it, they would go to Xue Qingshan and ask Mr. Hundred Households to deal with it personally.
Qin Shaoyou saw the surprise of Zhao Yuan and others and said with a smile: "I borrowed the supernatural items in order to better complete the mission. Do you really think I am using them for my own use? The reason why I didn't return the supernatural items before was because the mission was not over. We need to take precautions before they happen. Now that the mission is completed, even if you don't look for me, I will still come to return the supernatural items."
After all, most of the supernatural items he borrowed this time were for cases in Mianyuan County. They were ineffective against other demons and ghosts, so it would be of little use if he continued to carry them with him.
Zhao Yuan and others didn't know this. After listening to Qin Shaoyou's words and seeing that his attitude didn't seem to be hypocritical, they were a little embarrassed. They all laughed and said, "That's it. It seems that we misunderstood Qin Xiaoqi before. I'm really sorry." …”
"fine."
Qin Shaoyou waved his hand.
After they completed the return procedures, he took out the ghost beads for them to register. After that, he said with a smile: "Besides, as the saying goes, it's not difficult to borrow something and borrow it again. I returned it easily this time. Next time Next time I come to borrow supernatural items, you should be more willing to lend them to me."
After registering the ghost bead information, Zhao Yuan and others returned the ghost bead to Qin Shaoyou while subconsciously replying: "Definitely..."
As soon as the words came out, they realized something was wrong: "Eh... eh eh eh?"
Zhao Yuan and others hurriedly wanted to change their words, but Qin Shaoyou had already put away the ghost beads and left, leaving them looking at each other and complaining to each other.
"Why did you promise him that you can come and borrow supernatural items next time?"
"Didn't you agree too?"
"I don't know what happened. I was confused by his few words and subconsciously agreed."
"Me too...Qin Xiaoqi's mouth is simply poisonous."
After leaving the spiritual object room, Qin Shaoyou was stopped again after taking a few steps.
The person who stopped him this time was Xu Baan and General Xu Qi.
"Brother Shaoyou is back? Did you send the bodies of the two strong men Liao and Yao home? Was it a smooth journey?"
"It's not going well, I encountered a case."
Qin Shaoyou recounted the key points of the case where Fan Chenggong turned into a ghost and demanded his life.
After hearing this, Xu Ba'an couldn't help but frown: "These days, there are too many people pretending to be gods and deceiving people. I didn't expect that now it has developed to the point where even ghosts are deceived..."
Qin Shaoyou nodded, yes, I didn't expect that the demons and ghosts in this world would also appear involuntarily.
After sighing, Xu Ba'an asked: "Did you report this case to Mr. Xue?"
Qin Shaoyou shook his head: "Not yet, has Master Xue come back?"
"He came back yesterday. Go and meet him. He will ask you as soon as he comes back and says he has good news." Xu Ba'an said with a smile.
"Good news? What good news?" Qin Shaoyou asked curiously.
But Xu Ba'an gave it away: "I won't say anything. You can ask Mr. Xue yourself."
