Chapter 24 A pair of mother and daughter

Not long after Ning Yi left, two streams of light fell in the courtyard.

A man has a tiger-like back and carries a huge ax on his back, which looks like gold steel that can subdue demons. His face is ferocious like a ghost, and his nose is big and flat, inlaid with two bronze nose rings.

The other person is none other than Jia Shi.

The two of them walked around the small courtyard, but couldn't find any useful clues about Mao.

Ning Yi's fire was so clean that even a monk in the foundation-building stage, whose five senses were more sensitive than a hunting dog, could not find any useful clues.

On the other side, Ning Yi returned to the mansion quietly.

The battle here had just ended, and the officials from the Zhenxian Division were cleaning up the scene. When they saw Ning Yi coming back, they stopped what they were doing and looked over, with complicated expressions.

Before setting off, a group of people boasted about taking care of other people in Haikou.

As a result, if Ning Yi hadn't taken action, at least half of them would have been here tonight.

"Ning Yi, I won't say anything about my gratitude. In the future, when Zhenxian Division is needed, if you ask, my brother will never say a word."

Yang Nian came over and was totally convinced by Ning Yi.

He had previously known that Ning Yi could make spiritual talismans, and his talent had already made him intimidated. Now that he saw Ning Yi's combat prowess, his awe increased by several levels.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ning Yi's strength shown tonight is the best among his peers in Jixia Academy.

For such a young man, his future is limitless.

"Haha, that's easy to say."

Ning Yi smiled and joked: "When my father recovers from his injury and returns to Zhenxian Division, everyone should take more care of him."

"sure."

…………

After a few polite words, the slightest bit of embarrassment dissipated, and the relationship between the two parties became closer.

Yang Nian asked about Ning Yi's movements. Ning Yi had already thought of his words and just said that he was chasing Jia Shi and wanted to see the situation. However, he lost the pursuit halfway and returned along the way.

Yang Nian didn't doubt that he had it. Ning Yi had good talent, but his cultivation was still shallow. It was normal that he couldn't catch up.

What's more, the time from leaving to coming back is only five or six minutes, so what can you do?

"They are all poor people."

Yang Nian spoke in a low voice when talking about the situation in the mansion, "The fox demon is cunning. When looking for blood food, it only targets beggars or homeless people living on the streets. If a woman hadn't reported to the police that someone had kidnapped her,

My daughter, we may not be able to find her here yet."

"The woman's daughter..."

Halfway through the question, Ning Yi stopped.

Yang Nian glanced at the open hall, his lips trembled and he remained silent.

The scene in the hall was so terrifying that even an old man like Yang Nian, who was used to seeing life and death, did not want to go in and stay longer.

"Her family is in Yunzhou in the north. When the army retreated, they left late. Her husband died at the hands of the demon clan. She took her daughter to beg all the way to Chang'an..."

Yang Nian's voice became smaller and smaller, but his eyes burst into flames. He paused and cursed: "Damn fox demon, damn the world..."

As Yang Nian spoke simply, the image of a desperate mother emerged in Ning Yi's mind.

The good mood of killing the demon fox and winning a great victory was mostly diluted. He took out five or six taels of silver from his pocket, handed it to Yang Nian, and whispered: "If you can, give it to her for me."

Yang Nian nodded, barely showing a smile on his face.

Although the money is not much, it is enough for the woman to get through the most difficult time at present. If she can cheer up, it will not be difficult to find a job in Chang'an City to support herself.

If she...

Ning Yi shook his head and drove away the bad thoughts from his mind.

After a while, Jia Shi and Ju Han walked into the small courtyard.

The officials of Zhenxian Division stopped their work one after another and looked over.

"Mr. Jia Qian."

Yang Nian gathered his spirits and went up to meet him, saying: "Mr. Li Qian is here too. The battle here is over. All the alienated demons have been killed. Sir, what about the demon fox?"

"I was deceived by him."

There was a hint of anger in Jia Shi's sharp and majestic eyes, "However, he should be executed. As for the person who did it, it is still a mystery. The scene has been cleaned very clean, and no useful clues can be found."

"No matter who killed it, it's always a good thing if the demon fox kills him."

Yang Nian's frowned eyebrows relaxed slightly, as if he had let go of his worries. He glanced at the strong man in surprise and said, "Didn't even Mr. Li Qian find anything?"

The strong man was a little dissatisfied when he heard this. He snorted and glared at Yang Nian angrily.

"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now."

Jia Shi glared at Yang Nian and said in a deep voice: "After I left, I noticed something unusual."

"No."

Yang Nian shook his head, "After the master left, the brothers were busy killing the alienated demons and didn't pay much attention to their surroundings. Oh, by the way. Ning Yi, did you find anything before you chased me out?"

Um?

Jia Shi and Mr. Li Qian glanced over and looked at Ning Yi carefully. Mr. Li Qian twitched his big nose slightly and his eyes brightened slightly as he stared at Ning Yi.

"No."

Ning Yi smiled and shook his head, his expression indifferent.

Mr. Li Qian frowned slightly and was about to speak when he saw Jia Shi shaking his head slightly at him and fell silent.

Things settled here, and Ning Yi said goodbye.

Jia Shi personally sent Ning Yi to the door, thanked him for his help, and promised that the Zhenxian Division would be kind to Ning Zhan and would arrange a good place for him as long as he recovered from his injuries.

"Lao Jia, what do you mean?"

As soon as Ning Yi disappeared around the corner, Mr. Li Qian couldn't help but question, "I heard it right. I'm 100% sure that that kid has entered that courtyard."

"Brother Li Gui misunderstood me."

Jia Shi smiled and explained: "If I didn't believe you, why would I ask you to help me track down the demon fox?"

The anger on Li Gui's face instantly disappeared, he snorted and said, "Then why don't you let me expose that kid."

"We are not enemies, so what if we expose him? Has he ever killed a demon fox?"

"Of course I failed, and it was a great achievement."

"That's it."

Jia Shi said with a smile: "Since he deliberately concealed it, we should pretend that we don't know, so as not to annoy others."

Seeing Li Gui's puzzled expression, he asked with a smile: "He is a student of Jixia Academy. He has just entered the school for two years. Calculating his age, he is just 16 years old. Brother Li, when you were 16 years old, you were able to cut and build

Is it a demon fox in the base period?"

"Definitely not. I was still hungry at that time."

Li Gui touched his head and smiled honestly, but he was too ugly, so this smile was a bit scary, especially at night.

"That's it."

Jia Shi nodded, "With such talent, our future achievements will be far greater than those of you and me. What's even more rare is that at a young age, you know how to hide your strength and bide your time, hiding in the abyss. When the time comes to take off, we will surely dominate the Tang Dynasty. If we

To be able to form a good relationship with him is due to chance and good fortune."

Li Gui stared at Jia Shi with his eyes widened, his eyeballs rolling.

Jia Shi seemed to be in a good mood. He looked at him with a smile and said, "Do you feel very inspired? You feel that you have learned a lot."

"Hey, you have such complicated thoughts."

Jia Shi had a mouthful of phlegm in his heart, which made his face turn red and veins on his forehead pop.
