Having said this, these villagers came over to thank me again.
Especially the two families whose children were eaten by Mrs. Xiong, thanked me profusely and shed tears.
Then, the village chief Tao Zheng directed Tao Feng, Tao Jiang, and several young adults to build a pile of firewood in the public sunbathing dam in the center of the village. Throw in the three pieces of Xiong's mother-in-law's body.
Then, light the fire!
In the cheers of Taojiagou villagers, the evil-doing monster Xiong Jiapo was burned to ashes.
From now on, at least there is no threat from Mrs. Xiong here.
Madoka and I were outside the crowd, watching this scene quietly.
call……
I sighed.
"Although the dead children cannot be resurrected, the remaining ones still have to live well. I can help them get rid of the threats of various evil creatures, which is also a good thing."
Madoka glanced at me.
“It’s okay to do good deeds, but you can’t charge less money!”
I'm a little speechless.
This damn fat bird!
It was probably worried that I would not accept the promised reward because I sympathized with the two families whose children had died.
"One code equals the other. It is moral to sympathize with them and help them, and it is a rule to accept money. As long as they are not too poor to eat, then the good things you say cannot break the rules. What's more, by accepting money, you can be less involved in the cause and effect. .”
"Haha, boy Wu, you can see clearly, that's good."
Madoka looked like a "coward who can be taught", and I glared at him with disgust.
At this time, the village chief Tao Zheng squeezed out of the crowd and walked up to Xiao Yuan and me.
"Brother Wu, it's really thanks to you this time!"
He thanked me again.
Then he took out a thick envelope from his pocket and handed it to me.
The expression on his face was a little embarrassed.
"Brother Wu, the total here is five thousand yuan. It's not much... It's hard for you to be so dangerous and bring your demon pet to help us eliminate the Xiong family. But the two families themselves are not particularly wealthy. And if the child is dead, they probably still have money. You have to have a new baby. You also have to spend money to raise a baby."
"So the two families each contributed two thousand yuan, and we Murakami decided to help with another one thousand yuan. If you are not satisfied, Mr. Wu, I will think of another way."
I smiled and took the envelope from Tao Zheng's hand, shaking my head.
"No need, five thousand yuan is enough."
"Thank you, Brother Wu! You see it's already so late now, why don't you just go to my house and sleep for the night? Wait until tomorrow to go back. After all, it's uneasy to drive late at night... ahem, it's also inconvenient."
Tao Zheng consciously made a mistake and swallowed the word "safety" abruptly.
He also knows that it’s probably not me who’s unsafe on the road late at night…but those lonely ghosts and mountain spirits who dare to show off!
But I still declined his proposal.
After all, I only go home once every six months now, so I can stay home as long as I can.
Even if my parents are probably already asleep, it would be nice to be with them under the same roof!
So Xiaoyuan and I rushed back to Wujia Village overnight.
I crept back to my room quietly, went to bed and fell asleep...
The next morning, I got up at six o'clock.
Walking out of the room, I happened to bump into my mother who had also gotten up to feed the chickens.
She was suddenly surprised and happy, patted me with her hand and said.
"Oh Yao'er, you're at home! Are you back already?"
I chuckled and hugged her.
"Isn't it because I wanted to finish dealing with the Taojiagou matter and go home early? So last night, I rushed back overnight."
My mother rolled her eyes at me unhappily.
"It's so unsafe to drive in the mountains in the middle of the night... Well, Mom knows that you are powerful now. But aren't I just afraid of what might happen? I am a precious son like you, and I have raised you in my hands."
"I know, I'll pay attention in the future."
I smiled and made a face at her.
In front of parents, no matter how capable or how old they are, they are still just like children.
In front of outsiders like Tao Zheng, I can show off.
But in front of my parents, I just listen to them honestly anyway...
After dealing with the matter of "Grandma Xiong" eating children, life will be relatively calm for the next period of time.
I chat with my parents at home every day, help them with housework, do winter vacation homework assigned by the school, and go to Master's yard to practice.
The holiday days are quite nourishing and leisurely.
Occasionally, I would deliberately go for a walk with Madoka by the river after dark, while concentrating my magical energy. I wanted to see if there was any blind "water stick" looking for the scapegoat, so I took care of him!
I heard that fishing law enforcement was implemented later on. Does this count as "ghost fishing law enforcement"?
It's a pity that I don't know if there are fewer "water sticks" in winter, or if I'm just unlucky... Anyway, I just haven't encountered them.
Not even a single water ghost was killed.
This left me very disappointed and very unfulfilled.
So Xiao Yuan and I went for a walk in the mountains and woods near Wujiacun at night... but we still didn't encounter anything for a long time!
Finally, one night near a deserted grave, we finally caught a weak, lonely wild ghost.
But this guy... is so weak that I don't even want to look at him.
Although ordinary people may be a little scared when they see it. But if you are a courageous person with a strong temper and strong character, there is no need to worry.
So it’s really not me who blows it, even if I just blow lightly at it - as long as I incorporate Qi into it - I can blow it to pieces!
Madoka deliberately scares it.
"Tell me the truth! What bad things have you done to harm others?"
Facing such a powerful monster, the lonely ghost was frightened and looked aggrieved.
"Master Chicken Demon, I really have never harmed anyone. If you look at me like this, I can only scare people."
Madoka: "..."
I couldn't hold it in any longer and burst out laughing.
"Chicken demon, hahaha, you're laughing so hard, Mr. Chicken Demon."
Madoka was furious.
"Are you blind? I am an eagle, the king of eagles. Not a chicken."
The lonely ghost was trembling with fear, but he didn't know how to defend himself.
I quickly stopped Madoka from continuing to scare this weak ghost and asked him seriously.
"Do you know why there are no sneaky or monsters around Wujiacun?"
replied the ghost.
"Master Mage, I have also heard from other ghosts. It is said that there is a powerful person in Wujiacun. He is young and has very strong magic power. He often catches ghosts and eliminates them everywhere, so the area around Wujiacun has become It’s a forbidden place for ghosts like us. Those who can escape have already escaped. I can’t bear to leave my own grave. I want to... uh, wait!"
It reacted suddenly, stared at me, and said cautiously.
"That, could it be you, sir?"
