Chapter 240: The Eighth Mission - The New Five Immortals 44
Mo Yiyi was talking about the basket issue, as if she didn't care at all about the couple and children over there.
The father held the ruler high for a long time, and his hands were a little sore from holding it up.
The child couldn't even hold on to his mother's skirt. His feet fell to the ground and he could no longer reach his mother.
Looking at his father with tearful eyes, he seemed to understand that his father was reluctant to beat him, and even his crying was much quieter.
Seeing that the father and son seemed to be starting a staring game, Shuangxi glanced at it, and then asked Mo Yiyi.
"Manager Mo, what are you going to do with them?"
"If you don't deal with it very much, the father will be incompetent and sell himself to the coal mine to work as a miner. After thinking about it for a long time, he will know how to educate his children."
Mo Yiyi said this casually, but the father of the child who heard this did not dare to really think that Mo Yiyi was just talking!
Is it possible to be sold as a miner?
Isn't it just spanking a child? My child really needs a lesson. He is naughty even though he has weak hands. He should have been taught a lesson long ago!
The ruler in his hand was raised high, but after he struck it down, he regained his strength and was not as unrestrained as before.
But even so, the child was beaten so hard that he screamed, followed by even louder cries!
The father was confused by the child's cry, but when he looked back at the immortals, he found that Mo Yiyi was not looking at him at all. Shuangxi and Honghua were looking at him, but their eyes were very cold.
The father gritted his teeth, then raised the ruler high and hit him twice in succession!
Both of these spanks were slapped on the child's butt. There was not even a clear sound, but the child cried miserably as if his mother had died.
After these three strokes, a lot of sweat flowed from Dang's father's forehead. He felt that this should be enough, so he looked back at Mo Yiyi.
Mo Yiyi was not letting them hang out at this moment, but asked the housekeeper.
"Calculate the child's food and clothing expenses at home during this period, and then let them get married."
It was obvious that Noila Mo had no patience for disciplining this naughty child.
Forget it, just do whatever you want with this kid.
This child has not learned a lesson today. When he grows up in the future, someone will definitely educate him!
Mo Yiyi was already planning to let the family go, but she didn't want the person in charge to open her mouth and say it.
"Well, I did the math and found out that this child owes a total of 73,300 taels of silver to the house."
"How much???!!!" This is the voice of the child's father who has broken his voice!
Noila Mo was also startled and asked.
"Why so many?"
The housekeeper also knew that this number was a bit shocking, but he still said helplessly.
"He had no use for food and clothing, but he was dishonest and always wanted to escape. In the process of escaping, he broke seven large blue and white porcelain vases, sixteen large blue and white urns, a feng shui basin for raising fish, and some cups and plates
It's all small money, but he stained three famous paintings hanging on the wall with ink, kicked seven screens into pieces, and several other items, which add up to more than 70,000 taels, which is still a small amount."
Mo Yiyi also didn't expect that a naughty kid could be so powerful.
Noila Mo turned around again and looked at the child standing over there who was still crying, then at the father who was dumbfounded, and then at his manager.
"Okay, let's keep all the evidence."
With so many valuable items broken, it was of course impossible for the housekeeper not to leave evidence. He nodded immediately and said that if Noila Mo wanted to see it, he could bring those things up now.
Mo Yiyi waved her hand and said no.
"Since he broke these things, just take the things to their house and ask them to pay for them."
At this time, the father could no longer pretend to be dead and spoke quickly.
"Wait a minute, we can't give you this money! The child ran away because you detained my child. How can you blame my child for breaking things!"
Mo Yiyi didn't want to argue with him about whether these things existed or not, so she told him directly.
"Either you pay compensation, or you go to the coal mine to dig for coal, you choose one."
Facing Mo Yiyi's arrogant and cold face, the man was speechless anymore.
Yes, the man in front of him is an immortal. How could an immortal reason with a mortal?
The father instantly became depressed, but Mo Yiyi put down the mother at this moment, untied the red rope, and talked to the servant.
"Send their family back."
Of course the servants had to listen to Mo Yiyi's words, so no matter how much the family cried and howled, they all pushed and pushed them out.
It wasn't until the family was pushed away that the housekeeper asked Noila Mo in a low voice.
"Miss, do they really need to pay for this money?"
Noila Mo shook her head, and then talked to the housekeeper.
"Just show off and send those rags to their home."
This amount of money is nothing to Mo Yiyi, but to a mortal, it is an amount that can crush a person.
Mo Yiyi didn't want to use the money to force her family to death, but she also didn't want her money to go to waste.
As the father said in this matter, the responsibility does not lie solely with the child.
So Mo Yiyi only planned to scare the whole family. It would be better if the child could be restrained and not be so lawless.
This incident was just a small episode for Noila Mo. Although she felt a little bit sad, it was over and she wouldn't pay too much attention to it.
What she didn't expect was that there would be a follow-up to this matter!
The next day, the housekeeper and Mo Yiyi reported that something new had happened to the family.
Not long after the family returned home, the housekeeper took those porcelain pieces, broken screens, paintings, etc., arrived at the house with great fanfare, placed the things at their door, and then asked them to pay back the money!
Unexpectedly, the family first closed the door tightly and refused to come out. Then when they came out, the father grabbed the child and insisted that his son had not broken all these things. The child also denied it in front of everyone, saying that he
He was wrongly accused!
But the butler was not a vegetarian. He said that if they didn't admit it, they would go to the official and ask the official to comment. Then he scared off the father, pulled his son back and retreated.
After the housekeeper and his men frightened them, he left the pile of things at their door and returned with his men.
Originally, the matter was over at this point, but Mo Yiyi's intention was to scare the family and make them behave more restrained in the future.
Unexpectedly, that night, the family would cause trouble again. The father actually kicked the mother and the child out, and threw a divorce note in the mother's face!
The father cultivated the mother and gave up her son, saying that the mother would not teach the child and caused the child to get into trouble. Now he kicked her out. The life and death of the two mothers in the future will have nothing to do with him!
The steward only heard about this matter the next day. As soon as he heard about it, he came to Mo Yiyi and reported the matter.
Noila Mo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then asked the steward in a deep voice.
"So what's going on with the mother and son now?"
The steward hesitated for a moment and then said.
"She should still be kneeling in front of his house, crying and begging."
What kind of good ending can a woman who has been abandoned have in the future? Especially if she has to bear such a heavy debt!
Mo Yiyi didn't expect that things would develop to this point. Didn't the father look like he loved his son very much before? How could he just give up?
Mo Yiyi hesitated for a moment, and then said.
"Please let someone take care of the mother and son first..." Mo Yiyi shook her head after thinking for a while.
"Let this matter wait for a while. I will arrange it. Don't do anything for now." It was not appropriate for her to come forward on this matter, but she had a suitable candidate in mind.
After sending the person in charge away, Mo Yiyi went to the Yamen in person.
Mo Yiyi was one of the three distinguished guests guarding the city. No one dared to stop her from walking inside the yamen. She reached the inner courtyard smoothly and found Zheng Qingbai.
Zheng Qingbai was also very enthusiastic when he saw Mo Yiyi and said frankly that he was a rare guest.
After Mo Yiyi arrived, she didn't talk nonsense to Zheng Qingbai and directly made her intention clear.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng, I came here this time because I hope you can ask your nephew to do a favor."
"Oh? My nephew is incompetent, but if little friend Mo needs it, I will help him without any hesitation!"
"It's not a big deal, it's just..." Mo Yiyi told the story about the mother and son, and then revealed the reason for her visit.
"I want Daoyou Zheng's nephew to help the mother and son, and not to let the mother and son go to a dead end."
This is really not a difficult matter.
They were just a mortal mother and son, and Mo Yiyi also said that she didn't want the mother and son to pay back the money, so this matter was no big deal.
only……
"This matter is easy to handle, but Xiaoyou Mo, there is something I don't know."
"What's the matter?"
"You are not related to that mother and son, so why do you have to interfere with the rights and wrongs of mortals?"
Mo Yiyi blinked after hearing this, and then asked.
"Didn't Fellow Daoist Zheng see it?"
"What do you see? Is there some hidden secret that I don't know about?"
"That child is a half-demon." And that child is not only a half-demon, but also a half-demon with a natural spiritual bone!
"Half demon??? What kind of demon?" Zheng Qingbai really didn't know about this.
Logically speaking, if a half-demon was born, in a big city, the defenders would be able to sense it through the magic circle. But this child, if Mo Yiyi hadn't pointed it out, he really wouldn't have seen the clues!
"Bear! If I read it correctly, his other half should be a bear."
Zheng Qingbai frowned and asked after a while.
"Can Fellow Daoist Mo see it clearly?"
"Well, if you don't believe Daoyou Zheng, you can take a test. His parents are both mortals. He should have returned to his ancestors."
Such atavistic things happen often, but...
"But Fellow Daoist Mo, I didn't notice anything different about that child." This is what puzzled Zheng Qingbai the most.
Why didn't he notice it while he was defending the city, taking advantage of the convenience of the magic circle and the realm, but Mo Yiyi, a foundation-building sword cultivator of the Sword Sect, noticed it?
How did Mo Yiyi notice it?
Of course it's because Mo Yiyi is a spiritual spirit spirit!
It's like the kind of blood that is so thin that she can't detect it.
But as for the half-demon, Mo Yiyi could know it with just a quick scan!
After all, what the demon veins left behind is not only the blood, but also the demon energy contained in the half-demon body!
A person's body contains half of the demonic energy, and you can tell just by looking at it.
What's more, this child still has spiritual bones in his body, and Mo Yiyi can't even take a second look at that bright spiritual energy gathering place!
But it was impossible for Mo Yiyi to tell him this. She just turned her hand and took out the ball that could measure the blood concentration.
As soon as he took this thing out, Zheng Qingbai understood.
"Fellow Daoist Mo has already tested him?"
"Yeah" Mo Yiyi nodded, and then put the ball away.
This thing can't stand a closer look. After all, this is the lowest bloodline measuring device. Just using this thing to measure it, you can't tell that the other half of the child's bloodline is from the bear demon!
Fortunately, Zheng Qingbai didn't ask further questions, but felt confident because of this.
"I see. It seems I made a mistake."
Zheng Qingbai didn't think much about it, until Noila Mo suddenly asked after listening to Zheng Qingbai's words.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng, is this magic circle still useful?"
Zheng Qingbai didn't understand, and Noila Mo was also startled by her idea.
"Fellow Daoist Zheng, what I'm saying is, is the magic circle under this city still useful?"
"Of course!" Zheng Qingbai subconsciously answered in the affirmative, but then he became suspicious.
"Mo Xiaoyou, what do you mean by this?"
Mo Yiyi swallowed and then asked.
"Friend Dao Zheng, the Hui family can build a city within a city and an array within an array in this city. Is it possible that they have also done something to this array?"
Zheng Qingbai shook his head subconsciously. He instinctively felt that this was impossible.
But when the words of rebuttal came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
Apart from anything else, didn't he notice the half-demon child?
Different from Mo Yiyi's mere guess, Zheng Qingbai is the defender of Guang'an City. After having this suspicion, his mind subconsciously flashed through the number of half-demon children born in the city over the years, as well as the number of children in the city.
The number lost…
I didn't think it was anything before, but when these things came together, Zheng Qingbai couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.
"This...this is impossible."
The human race's towns and villages are protected by magic circles. It can be said that this magic circle is the most important guarantee for mortals to survive!
But if there is really a problem with this guarantee, then the problem will be huge!
The more Zheng Qingbai thought about it, the more anxious he became, and the more he thought about it, the more uncertain he became.
He didn't know whether this matter was true or not. If it was true, then the implications of this matter would be huge.
If it is false, and if this matter is reported to the police and it is confirmed that it is just his random imagination, then his punishment will be severe.
Just when he didn't know what to do, Mo Yiyi gave a suggestion.
"It's hard to keep this matter public, why don't we check it ourselves first."
"Does Little Friend Mo have any good ideas?"
What good solution can Mo Yiyi have? It’s just that she’s cheating!
For a great formation master in the Mahayana stage, it is really difficult for anything in this formation to escape his eyes!
However, if you want to explore the buildings below the city without destroying the superstructure, you must let the men in black robes temporarily take over the formation.
In other words, the city-defending monk must give up a position and let the man in black robe temporarily become the city-defending monk!
Zheng Qingbai can't make the decision in this matter, so he still needs to report it!
In order to give Zheng Qingbai confidence, Mo Yiyi also revealed the news that the man in black robe was a great formation master.
In this way, Zheng Qingbai really felt a lot more confident.
A Grand Formation Master is a powerful figure that can never be hired in the mortal world. If this person can take a look, it will definitely make people feel at ease.
Zheng Qingbai never doubted whether Mo Yiyi had ulterior motives.
After all, Mo Yiyi has lived here for such a long time, and everyone in the court has some understanding of Mo Yiyi's identity.
After all, Mo Yiyi is not a low-key person. Her name is well-known in the world of cultivation. What she has done and her background identity have been known to the ruling class in the world for so long.
Such a God of Wealth, who is still well-known in the Sword Sect, has been suppressed and not contacted by the mortal world. It is just because he knows that she is on a mission in the sect and is sensible enough not to disturb her. It is not that these mortals have other ideas.
With Mo Yiyi's identity, background and status, there is really no reason to do anything bad to their mortal city!
Therefore, after Zheng Qingbai discussed it with the other two city guards, the matter was successfully reported.
Mo Yiyi waited in the village for two days, and on the third day, Zheng Qingbai led people to Mo Yiyi's door in person.
These days, Mo Yiyi lives in the village. The village is full of women, children who need care, and a few frail adult men.
Neither the child nor the adult men can speak or walk, so they still need to be taught patiently.
As for those women, after being raised in Mo Yiyi's inner courtyard for a while, their complexions improved a lot.
Mo Yiyi took these women out of the house at night, and no one was alarmed. The women were all covered with that layer of cloth, and Zheng Qingbai personally guarded the city gate to let them go.
After leaving Guang'an City and entering this village, these women seemed to be much more energetic.
Although their bodies were still very weak, and although each of them still had a big belly, they left the city quietly, as if they had left their past behind in that city. They are in this new city.
The village finally has the courage to continue living!
Because of the help of the yamen, the records of these women in the yamen are all widows who fled. No matter how outrageous this record is, this is what is recorded in the files in the yamen, and it is the same for anyone who asks, so
, these women were all recorded in the yamen as women from good families, and the children they gave birth to were all posthumous, and they were normal legitimate children!
When Zheng Qingbai came with his men, Mo Yiyizheng and Shuangxi Honghua were helping these women pull the plow.
These women are all pregnant women and are not in good health. Mo Yiyi means to wait for a year until they have given birth to their children and are in good health before they can go to work in the fields.
But they didn't, even with their big bellies. They did it secretly if Mo Yiyi didn't let them do it. In the end, Mo Yiyi had no choice but to follow them with Double Happiness Red Flower.
Mo Yiyi didn't dare to help them plant all the land. After all, she didn't know how long she could stay in this city. If she planted all the land and the food was ready by then, such a group of women and a group of ignorant children would...
How are they going to collect the fields?
