Qin Shaoyou followed the sound and saw Cen Biqing walking out of her room.
Ever since eating the Black Lotus Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, Cen Biqing has entered a state of 'hibernation', and she has been sleeping even in the days since she returned to Mianyuan County.
If Cen Biqing's vital signs were not stable, and if Ye Zhiqiu said that she had experienced a similar 'hibernation' situation before, Qin Shaoyou would have suspected that something had happened to her.
Qin Shaoyou discovered that Cen Biqing, who had ended her 'hibernation', was not only full of energy, but her skin had also become as tender as a baby's.
In addition, he also noticed that there was a layer of snake skin in Cen Biqing's room.
It seems that after the end of hibernation, Cen Biqing also completed a molt, allowing herself to grow.
I just don’t know, in addition to the improvement in cultivation, has Cen Biqing also realized some other magical powers?
"You want to follow me to the capital? Aren't you going to stay in Mianyuan County to help Lao Ye?" Qin Shaoyou asked in surprise.
Cen Biqing shook his head and explained: "The order I got is to assist you, not to assist Ye Shibaihu. Until Master Qianhu gives me no new order, naturally I will follow you wherever you go.
.”
Qin Shaoyou did not refuse, nodded and said: "In that case, then you can come with me. Maybe you can meet Master Qianhu when you get to the capital."
Cen Biqing accepted the order and went back to the house to pack her things.
"I'm here to help you." Upon seeing this, Zhu Xiucai hurriedly followed him, but with a bang, he was locked outside the house by Cen Biqing.
"I'll clean it up myself, I don't need your help."
Cen Biqing's voice came from inside the room.
After a pause, she added: "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
Although he was rejected, Zhu Xiucai outside the door was not angry at all. He was still smiling and asked shamelessly: "You really don't need my help? I pack things very neatly."
Cen Biqing ignored him again.
When Qin Shaoyou saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Xiucai, a veteran driver, would also be a dog licker sometimes.
However, Cen Biqing obviously didn't want people to see the snake skin she shed. Zhu Xiucai's attentiveness was probably in the wrong place.
He did not participate, turned around and went to the county government office, went straight to the backyard, and saw Qin Qiaoer and Fifth Sister.
"Are you leaving?"
Mrs. An Qin had obviously heard about her little sister's news that Qin Shaoyou was going to Beijing to take up a post. She said with some reluctance: "Sixth sister, last time you came here, you didn't even say hello to me. This time you came, but you immediately
If I want to leave, I have to take my little brother with me... Why don't we leave after eating?"
Qin Qiaoer waved her hand, stood up, and said with a smile: "After dinner, Fifth Sister, do you still want to stay with us? Let's forget it. We will come back next time when we return to Yizhou and Luocheng.
Pay a visit to the fifth sister and fifth brother-in-law."
"Yes, definitely next time." Qin Shaoyou interrupted with a smile.
Mrs. An Qin rolled her eyes at him and asked Qin Qiaoer, "When will the next time be?"
Qin Qiaoer shook his head and said: "I can't say for sure, maybe a few months, maybe a few years... But don't worry, Fifth Sister, we will definitely write to you when we get to the capital."
Seeing the loss and reluctance on the fifth sister's face, Qin Shaoyou also tried to persuade her with a few words, so that the fifth sister could ease her sad mood.
Under the comfort of her younger brother and younger sister, Mrs. An Qin's mood recovered a little, and she waved her hands and sighed: "That's all, you go, I won't send it away, so as not to be sad. Remember to write to me when you get to the capital."
"Fifth sister, take care, parents, I'll leave you and Third Sister to worry about it!"
Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer solemnly said goodbye to the Anqin family, and immediately left the county office and returned to the Yamen of the Demon Town.
At this time, Zhu Xiucai and the others had already prepared their horses, put their bags and tied them up, and were waiting in the yard with the red-clothed envoys brought by Qin Qiaoer to set off.
After Qin Shaoyou came back, he went to the lobby first, put a stick of incense on the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutian Dangmo, and whispered in his mouth: "Please protect me from the Patriarch and have a safe journey!"
After leaving the lobby, I remembered something again and turned around and walked to the back of the lobby.
The hibiscus ghost branch transplanted here has grown into a small tree as thick as a walnut under Qiurong's care.
This fusang ghost tree is not only useless to others, but also very dangerous - if not properly cared for, it may be like the fusang ghost tree under Shuanggui Village, trapping the souls of the dead and turning into evil things.
So Qin Shaoyou must bring it with him.
Fortunately, as long as this ghost tree is nourished by ghost energy, even if it is dug up, it will not cause any serious harm.
Ghost energy is not a big problem for Qin Shaoyou.
Even if no evil ghosts are caught along the way, Su Jianqing and Qiu Rong will not let the Fuso ghost tree become 'hungry'.
What's more, there is also a lot of ghost energy stored in the mysterious recipe.
Qin Shaoyou immediately asked someone to bring a hoe, dug out the Fusang Ghost Tree, wrapped it in linen, and affixed it with a talisman such as a Hidden Qi Talisman to prevent others from seeing that it was unusual and causing unnecessary trouble.
Trouble.
After placing the fusang ghost tree on an empty horse and tying it up, Qin Shaoyou clapped his hands and pointed at Qingji, who was running around but his mouth was covered. He told Ye Zhiqiu: "I left the snake wine.
In the kitchen, send someone to keep an eye on it. Don't let these little guys drink secretly. Just give them a mouthful of wine every day. When the wine is almost finished, buy some new wine in advance and pour it in to continue soaking."
"Understood." Ye Zhiqiu nodded, and then asked with some confusion: "Master Qin, why did you block their mouths with blood?"
Qin Shaoyou pointed at the people outside the gate of the Demon Suppression Division.
"I don't want these little guys to make the news of my departure known to everyone, and ask the common people to come and try to stay... Parting is the saddest thing, so it's better to leave quietly."
Ye Zhiqiu nodded in agreement.
Soon, Qin Shaoyou and the others led the horses, left the Demon Suppression Division, and walked out of the city.
Along the way, many people from Mianyuan County saw them.
But no one knew that Qin Shaoyou and the others were leaving Mianyuan County to take office in the capital. They thought they were going out of the city to perform tasks as usual, so they all greeted them with smiles.
After leaving the city gate, Qin Shaoyou looked back, as if he wanted to keep the appearance of Mianyuan County in his heart.
After a while, he turned back and called for everyone to mount their horses.
Although there was Gunshan Jun, Qin Shaoyou still rode a horse.
When you are on the road, you can just ride a horse. When you are fighting and charging into battle, it is not too late to ride a panda.
But just when Qin Shaoyou got on the horse, he discovered that there was something extra on the horse's back.
It is the half-meter-tall statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch enshrined in the Demon Division of Mianyuan County!
Qin Shaoyou was stunned for a moment, called Zhu Xiucai to his side, and asked him: "Did you put the statue of the Patriarch on my horse?"
"No."
Zhu Xiucai was also surprised.
"I remember that when you were offering incense to the statue of the Patriarch, it was still in the lobby, right? Who brought it up on horseback?"
Cui Yougui, Monk Ma and others all shook their heads and said it was not them.
Seeing Qin Shaoyou holding the statue of the Patriarch with a thoughtful look on his face, Zhu Xiucai suggested: "How about I send someone to take the Patriarch's statue back to the Demon Suppression Department?"
"Since it wasn't you who brought the Patriarch's statue onto the horse, then it's very likely that the Patriarch's statue itself wants to follow us..."
Qin Shaoyou thought of this statue of the Patriarch, which had also come to Mianyuan County Town Demon Division to find him, so he guessed this.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he saw the eyes of the Patriarch's statue move, as if confirming his statement.
He really took the initiative to follow me.
I just don’t know. It seems that the Patriarch listened to my prayers and wanted to protect me all the way. Or was he afraid that the cook would run away and there would be no food to eat, so he chased after me?
But no matter what, it is a good thing to have a statue of the Patriarch around.
Qin Shaoyou has long wanted to try it when a demon throws a statue of the Patriarch and challenges them to a duel...
"Since the statue of the Patriarch is going to come with us, let's take it with us."
Qin Shaoyou opened his bag, put the statue of the Patriarch in, then clamped the horse's belly, shook the reins and shouted "Drive", and galloped away towards the capital.
"My lord, you are wrong, go to the side."
Zhu Xiucai hurriedly stopped him and pointed in another direction.
Qin Shaoyou pulled the reins without changing his expression and asked the horse to change direction.
In the blink of an eye, evening came, and everyone was rushing out of Mianyuan County. They were looking for a place to spend the night, like a post station, when they suddenly saw a paper crane flying out in front of them.
Qin Qiaoer raised her eyebrows and stretched out her hand, and the paper crane charm immediately stopped in her palm.
After reading the news from the paper crane talisman, Qin Qiaoer looked at Qin Shaoyou and said, "It seems that we can't return to the capital for the time being."
"Is there a new mission?" Qin Shaoyou asked.
Qin Qiaoer nodded, pulled the reins, and ordered everyone: "Change the route and go to the front line of Qingtang!"
