Qin Shaoyou not only praised Cai Guizhong as a hero, but also asked Zhu Xiucai to take out his merit list and read out loud the achievements made by Cai Guizhong.
This is not only read to Cai's mother, but also to let the neighbors know.
The noise made by Qin Shaoyou and others transporting the coffin was not small. The neighbors were alerted and gathered around to see what happened.
Cai Guizhong was not able to return to his hometown in glory during his lifetime. Now that he has sacrificed his life, he must let the elders in his hometown know about his bravery and achievements.
Mother Cai and the beautiful woman burst into tears as they listened.
"My son is indeed brave!"
After hearing about Cai Guizhong's achievements, Cai's mother wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, turned around and bowed deeply to the tablets of the Cai family's ancestors enshrined in the house.
"Ancestors, please rest assured that my son Guizhong has not brought shame on the Cai family!"
Qin Shaoyou was afraid that Cai's mother would be too sad, so he comforted her with [Qiao Tongue].
The beautiful woman supporting Cai's mother frowned slightly, seeming to be aware of the hypnotic and bewitching power in Qin Shaoyou's words.
But seeing that Qin Shaoyou had no ill intentions, and Cai's mother was indeed relieved of her sadness, she didn't stop him.
And her reaction was also noticed by Qin Shaoyou, who also said nothing.
After comforting Mother Cai, Qin Shaoyou winked at Zhu Xiucai.
The latter understood the situation and arranged for several night watchmen to block the door and block the sight of everyone outside the house.
Qin Shaoyou took out the reward money Cai Guizhong had accumulated, as well as the pension money distributed by the Demon Suppression Division and himself, one by one, and handed them over to Cai's mother.
Then a few night watchmen will be left here to help Cai's mother with Cai Guizhong's funeral arrangements.
And he will take the rest of the people away to deal with the night watchmen here who abuse their power and care about human life.
When Cai's mother heard that they were leaving, she hurriedly persuaded them to stay: "It's almost noon, let's go after dinner." If Gui Zhong knew that his colleague arrived at home without a sip of hot tea or a sip of hot rice, he would definitely It's my fault. He sent a letter to his family by someone before, saying that he was going to be transferred back to Mianyuan County as a cadre. He planned to invite his colleagues to his home for dinner after he took office. If you eat and leave today, it can be regarded as Que Gui A loyal wish."
It's hard to refuse such kindness, so Qin Shaoyou can only agree. Anyway, he has sent people to keep an eye on him, so he is not afraid that the night watchman here will run away.
Besides, the night watchmen in Lingjie Town probably don't know that Qin Shaoyou plans to attack them.
Moreover, there is one more thing that needs to be clarified here in the Cai family.
Qin Shaoyou was just worried that he would trouble Cai's mother because of the large number of people.
Seeing that they were willing to stay for dinner, Cai's mother was very happy and even said it was no trouble.
Immediately afterwards, Cai's mother handed Cai Guizhong's reward and pension money to the beautiful woman and asked her to take it to the back room to keep it away. She took out an old piece of clothing from an inconspicuous cabinet and found it hidden inside. of silver money.
This is the money Cai's mother saved from working hard to help others with laundry.
She carefully put the money away, and then said to Qin Shaoyou and others: "I'm going to buy some rice, noodles and vegetables. You guys can rest at home for a while."
Then he told the beautiful woman who came out of the back room after placing the money: "Xiao Cui, please help me take care of everyone. They are Guizhong's brothers Paoze, and they are your brothers. They must not be rude."
Xiaocui said 'yes', and Cai's mother ordered her to make tea quickly before leaving the house.
Qin Shaoyou arranged for several night watchmen to accompany him, mainly to help carry things, and at the same time keep an eye on Cai's mother to prevent her from spending too much money.
After Cai's mother left, Qin Shaoyou sent several more night watchmen and asked them to find a mage who specialized in funeral business in the town to come and prepare funeral-related matters for Cai Guizhong.
Although Cui Youwei and other Taoist priests from Yuhuangguan were more professional in this kind of matter, after they dealt with the night watchmen in Lingjie Town, they had to go elsewhere for inspections and could not stay here for too long.
Therefore, it is more appropriate to leave it to the local mage.
After making these arrangements, Qin Shaoyou turned his head and looked at the beautiful woman named Xiaocui.
Xiao Cui is carrying a pot to make tea for everyone.
"There's no need to make tea, just give it a bowl of hot water." Qin Shao said and winked at Cui Yougui.
Senior Brother Cui understood the situation and immediately cast a spell to isolate the inside and outside of the house to prevent the sound from spreading out and letting the neighbors who gathered outside to watch the excitement hear some words that they shouldn't hear.
Xiaocui was very smart. When he saw Cui Yougui making magic spells, he knew that Qin Shaoyou had something to ask, and hurriedly said proactively: "Although I am a fox demon, I have never harmed anyone. Even in Cai Lang's family, I am filial. Cai’s mother is friendly to her neighbors.”
Qin Shaoyou believed what she said because he didn't smell anything on her body that he wanted to eat.
This is enough to show that although Qiurong is a monster, he has never harmed anyone.
Otherwise, Qin Shaoyou's appetite should have responded.
Moreover, Qin Shaoyou used his [Bright Eyes] to observe Xiaocui when she was speaking, and found no sign of her lying.
In addition, Cui Youxuan, Su Tingyu and other Taoist priests from Jade Emperor Temple also stared at Xiaocui while making magic spells.
If she lies, she can't hide it from everyone's eyes.
Unless her strength is far superior to everyone else, she can even deceive Qin Shaoyou's appetite.
"Don't be nervous, I have no intention of arresting you. Our Demon Suppression Department only arrests demons and ghosts that harm people. As long as you abide by the law, we will not make things difficult for you. I just want to know why you, a fox demon, appear in Cai Guizhong's house ? What is your relationship with Cai Guizhong’s family?”
Qin Shaoyou signaled Xiaocui to relax, and took a sip of the water she poured to show his trust.
Anyway, with Taoist Wenzhu here, Qin Shaoyou is not afraid of being poisoned.
What's more, he could see clearly that when Xiaocui was pouring the water, Taoist Wenzhu had already quietly checked it. If there was a problem, he would have warned him long ago.
Seeing that Qin Shaoyou's attitude didn't seem to be hypocritical, Xiaocui relaxed and said shyly, "I am Cai Lang's unmarried wife."
Her answer not only surprised Qin Shaoyou, but also surprised and envied Zhu Xiucai and others.
Zhu Xiucai also lowered his head and glanced at Cai Guizhong inside the coffin, and muttered softly: "You kid has realized the happiness of King Zhou..."
Qin Shaoyou glared at Zhu Xiucai, and then motioned to Xiaocui to tell the whole story.
As Xiao Cui told her story with Cai Guizhong, everyone also knew what was going on between her and Cai Guizhong.
When Cai Guizhong was a child, he worked as a cattle herder in a landlord's house outside the town.
At that time, Xiaocui was a fox who had started practicing but failed to transform.
One day, the sun was shining brightly, and Xiaocui was breathing out the sun's essence. Suddenly, the sky suddenly changed, and lightning and thunder began.
Moreover, those lightning bolts all rushed towards Xiao Cui to strike down.
Xiaocui couldn't avoid it and was struck by lightning, almost losing her life.
At this time, Cai Guizhong, the cattle herder, was driving his cattle to take shelter from the rain. When he saw the dying Xiaocui, he rescued her and took her to the Chenghuang Temple outside the town. While sheltering from the rain, he made a fire and burned plant ashes to apply on her. on her body to help her stop bleeding.
Xiaocui was originally worried that Cai Guizhong would cause thunder if he saved her. She wanted Cai Guizhong to leave her alone and leave quickly, but at that time, she could not speak human language and could only make chirping fox noises. Cai Guizhong didn't understand and thought she was crying out for pain, so he gently stroked her to comfort her.
Strangely enough, after Cai Guizhong took Xiaocui into the City God's Temple, although the thunder shook the sky, it did not fall again.
Half an hour later, the thunder dispersed, and Xiaocui was taken home by Cai Guizhong, who took care of her carefully with Cai's mother and healed her injuries.
Later, her injuries recovered, and Cai Guizhong took her to the mountains to release her.
Xiaocui wrote down Cai Guizhong's address and appearance. Once he succeeded in worshiping the moon and cultivated the human form, he immediately came to the door and promised to repay Cai Guizhong for saving his life.
When Zhu Xiucai heard this, he immediately narrowed his eyes, looking like he was thinking about everything.
Qin Shaoyou noticed his appearance and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? But is there something wrong with Xiaocui's words?"
"No."
Zhu Xiucai shook his head.
"I was just recalling which animals I had saved when I was a child, and whether any of them would come back to repay their kindness..."
Then he sighed again and said regretfully: "You said that when I was a child, why didn't I save more foxes, rabbits, snakes and other small animals? Hey... if I try to save them now, they will come again. Not in time?"
