If you want to be healthy, how can you achieve it by killing a few demons and ghosts?
In addition to monsters and ghosts, there are corrupt local officials, exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes imposed from top to bottom, and bureaucrats who only care about their party and have no regard for people's livelihood...
By the way, there are also those noble people who inexplicably use "valuation" to kill people with a knife.
And the emperor who only wanted to cultivate immortality, asked for tributes of alchemy materials from everywhere, and was keen on provoking party struggles to stabilize the throne...
As long as these people are still there, there is no hope of a healthy life.
This Great Xia Dynasty was rotten from top to bottom. Unless there was a major change of blood, it would be impossible for the people to be truly healthy.
This kind of thing is not something that a small flag officer can worry about.
All Qin Shaoyou can do now is really to eradicate the demons and ghosts and help the villagers reduce exploitation and oppression.
But he hesitated.
Because his mission this time is to escort the child who was turned into a dog to the Jade Emperor Temple.
There were nearly a hundred children in the team, and he didn't dare to cause trouble, let alone take risks!
The night watchmen in the team also divided into two groups at this moment.
One group believes that the most important thing is not to meddle in other people's business, but to complete the escort mission first.
As for the ghosts that are haunted here, just wait until early tomorrow morning and send someone to report it to Xue Baihu.
The other group believes that killing ghosts and monsters and protecting the people are the original duties of the night watchman and the meaning of the existence of the Demon Suppression Department.
If we ignore this matter today, even if we can kill the tiger in the future, we will definitely not be able to save the kidnapped boys and girls.
From the previous two failed demon extermination operations, it is easy to see that the tiger is very cunning. Once he senses that a night watchman is entering the mountain to investigate, he will immediately hide.
Therefore, even if Xue Baihu sends people over, I am afraid that like the previous two operations, it will end in failure and harm the villagers instead.
But they are different.
From the moment they left Mianyuan County, the sisters of the Su family used talismans to cover their auras.
This is done to protect children.
The child who was turned into a dog was filled with despair, fear, uneasiness and other emotions.
To many demons and ghosts, they are a delicacy.
With their auras covered, even if the tigers were good at observing their auras, they would not recognize them as night watchmen and would only regard them as ordinary caravans.
Therefore, the tiger is likely to ignore their group and continue his rent collection operations.
This is a good opportunity to find it and kill it!
However, the opponents also have their reasons.
A Xiaoqi frowned and said: "Have you ever thought about what to do if the tiger is very strong? It doesn't matter if we die, we are all people who are licking food on the blade, who hasn't realized that we should die? But what if we die?
If they die, what will happen to the children in the convoy? If something happens to them, we can’t bear the blame even if we die! Don’t forget, there is Zhang Shilang’s grandson in here!”
After hearing his words, many people in the team fell silent.
Some people who originally supported the annihilation of tigers also became wavered.
Although killing the tiger is definitely a credit, if the children in the team are included, it will not only be a failure, but also a big mistake.
At that time, not only they will suffer, but their family members will also be implicated.
Zhu Xiucai calmly analyzed: "The tiger's strength cannot be too strong, otherwise when Xiaoqi from this county came with the night watchman to look for it, it would not have been frightened into hiding and not daring to show its face."
Xiaoqi questioned: "What if the tiger is not afraid, but just doesn't want to attract the punishment of the Demon Suppression Division for killing the night watchman?"
Zhu Xiucai did not agree with this guess.
"With the tiger's hiding ability, why would he care about the Demon Suppression Division's crusade?
When it burrows into the mountain, not even the army can find it. Our Demon Suppression Department doesn't have as many people as the army. Even if there are supernatural items that can help find the monster, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find it.
Besides, with its method of renting a small amount every month and a large amount every half year, it doesn’t seem like it would be afraid of recruiting our Demon Suppressor."
The other night watchmen in the team all thought that the tiger was not very strong, but that he was good at hiding and his movements were erratic, making it difficult for people to find him.
Xiaoqi was moved, but he was still a little worried: "But we have to ensure the safety of these children in the team..."
"no problem."
Su Tingyu interrupted at this time.
"We have used talismans to hide the breath of the children. No matter in the eyes of ordinary people or monsters, they are just a bunch of dogs.
The tiger and his demons have no interest in dogs.
Otherwise, the dogs in this village would have been sucked dry like their owners, and they would not be so energetic."
Zhu Xiucai said: "Even if we want to kill the tiger, we will not go out in full force. We must leave enough manpower to protect these children. In this way, even if the situation changes, we can deal with it calmly."
Xiaoqi, who was originally opposed to the idea, was completely convinced.
But this matter is not something he can decide.
He looked at Qin Shaoyou, waiting for Qin Xiaoqi to make up his mind.
Qin Shaoyou listened to everyone's discussion and was weighing and thinking in his heart.
He felt that, as Zhu Xiucai said, while protecting the children, he could hope to kill the tigers and eliminate harm to the people, and then get some new recipes and ingredients for himself.
But he was a little worried.
"We want to follow the rent collector to find it, but I'm afraid it won't be easy.
It would be okay if we just follow him by then, but if we are discovered by ghosts on the way, I am afraid it will trigger another revenge for the villagers here."
This is indeed a problem, and everyone can't help but frown.
After a while, Zhu Xiucai made a suggestion:
"Why don't we get two people to replace the pair of toddlers, so that we can leave a signal along the way, and we won't lose track if we follow them from a distance, and they won't be easily exposed.
When the time comes to take action, there will still be someone beside the demon and ghost to coordinate inside and outside."
This is a good idea. It can not only save innocent children in advance, so as to avoid accidentally injuring them during the battle, or being held hostage by tigers, but also ensures that the ghosts can be better tracked and find the tigers.
only……
Qin Shaoyou looked at Su Tingyu.
Zhu Xiucai and others also looked at her.
It's easy to talk about boys, there are so many boys in the team.
But as for a virgin...except Su Tingyu, there is no one else here.
Su Tingyu originally wanted to kill the tiger and eliminate harm for the people, so without any hesitation, he immediately agreed:
"I have no problem. I can replace the girl. Besides, my sister is connected to my soul. She can find me even if she leaves no mark along the way."
“That would be great!”
Everyone was happy.
Only Su Jianqing was a little unhappy: "There are two girls here, why do you only look at my sister? Am I not a virgin?"
"this……"
Everyone was speechless.
You do look like a virgin, but you are not a human being!
Seeing that both of them were silent, Qin Shaoyou had no choice but to say: "Dao Priest Su, have you forgotten that you are a ghost cultivator? I'm afraid the tiger's ghost servants will not be happy to bring someone of the same kind back for business."
"Sorry, I forgot about this."
Su Jianqing stuck out her tongue, feeling a little embarrassed, and hurriedly changed the subject: "The virgin is here, where is the virgin? Which of you will go?"
Qin Shaoyou turned to look at Zhu Xiucai.
Zhu Xiucai spread his hands: "Sir, you know me, how can I still be a virgin?"
Other night watchmen in the team also expressed:
"I am no longer a virgin."
"I'm still a virgin today, but I guess the tiger won't want a one-day virgin like me, right?"
"Don't look at me, I'm not..."
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but marveled: Good guy, is the night life of the night watchman so rich? Either killing ghosts or fucking goblins?
He could only look at Monk Ma.
Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, Monk Ma said with a shy look: "Sir, I'm sorry, I'm not a virgin either."
"Fuck!" Qin Shaoyou was really shocked.
The monk is not a virgin? No wonder he has returned to secular life and his feelings are like a flower monk?
Zhu Xiucai and others also had a gossipy face.
Monk Ma hurriedly explained: "It all happened before becoming a monk, and I am the passive one..."
"Oh oh oh~"
Everyone became more and more interested. There was a story in it.
But they didn't rush to ask. They could still understand the priorities of the matter.
