Chapter Seventy-One: Luo Peide
When Tang Xiaobai and Xuangui walked back, the people of Luojiazhuang had already returned to normal.
The street vendors, the bargaining women, everyone looked normal, as if the strange scene had never happened.
Tang Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, and finally remembered to ask Hyungui, "Why are you here?"
Hyun Gyu scratched his head, lowered his head and kicked the stones on the side of the road, and struggled for a while before stumbling, "That's the one, Fukuda." I didn't say goodbye to you and had regrets in my heart, so I came. ”
Tang Xiaobai sighed, "What about Futian?"
Xuan Gui thought about it, and his face changed, "It's wrong, it's still in Luo Mansion!"
He hurriedly raised his feet and ran towards Luo's Mansion, and Tang Xiaobai followed closely behind.
When the two hurried to the street where Luo's Mansion was located, they saw a chubby figure running towards them in the distance.
Lucky. Seeing that he was fine, Hyun Gyu's hanging heart finally let go and beckoned to him.
Fukuda was also very happy to see his boss in this moment of crisis, and he hurriedly quickened his pace a little, and ran to Hyungui in three steps and two steps.
"It's scary. Although he was crying and sad, when he saw Hyun Gyu coming back to save him, it was as if he had suddenly found the backbone, and he complained like a little daughter-in-law, "I was waiting for you at the foot of the wall where I had made an appointment, but those people suddenly rushed out, and they were all invulnerable, and they all chased me like crazy demons." ”
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the Luo Mansion family behind him quickly chased after him, and everyone had a dull look on their faces, which was the same as what Tang Xiaobai had just seen.
"This is not the place to talk, let's go. ”
Tang Xiaobai said, took the two people into the alley, and went around for a long time before finally getting rid of the weird family members who were chasing after him.
Poor Futian has not run such a long distance since he can remember, and his body has already collapsed at this time, and when he saw that he was finally out of danger, he simply sat on the ground, panting heavily, and asked puzzled while fanning the wind with his palm, "What's going on?"
Tang Xiaobai frowned, his face solemn, "Did they become like this after you used the spell just now?"
Fukuda thought for a moment and nodded.
Tang Xiaobai said, "These people seem to have a different perception of spiritual power than ordinary people. ”
"Are these people human beings or ghosts?" Hyungui felt furious behind his back.
"I'm afraid that all the people in this whole Locke's Village are not people. Tang Xiaobai groaned, "It probably has something to do with that stone." ”
Hyun Gyu asked curiously, "What stone?"
Tang Xiaobai then recounted to him what happened after he met Lin Caiyue yesterday, remembered something, and asked, "But how did you two get in?"
Fukuda was already holding up a big grievance and had nowhere to vent, but when he heard her ask about himself, he couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "It's not my boss yet, I have to sneak with you for a while, and then jump out to surprise you when you encounter a crisis, but it turned out that the two of us were trapped in the fog first, and it really took a lot of ......."
Before Fukuda finished speaking, he suddenly jumped up with a snort, slapped his ass with both hands and shouted, "It's on fire, it's on fire!"
Tang Xiaobai was clear, sighed in his heart, and had no choice but to use the water trick to relieve him first, and seeing that Hyungui was still black-faced, he had to give him a step, "Since you're here, let's go together." ”
Fukuda reacted that he seemed to have said the wrong thing just now, which made the boss lose face, and at this time, he couldn't even care about his ass and hurriedly laughed and flattered, "Yes, yes, let's go together." ”
Hyun Gyu glared at him, pretending to be a little reluctant with a straight face, "I'm very powerful, and walking with me is considered your earnings." ”
After speaking, he turned his back and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth.
......
......
When Tang Xiaobai returned to the inn with Xuangui Futian, Nansui and Jingyu were already sitting downstairs drinking tea and chatting.
The inn was deserted, perhaps because there had been a dead person, or perhaps because there were no outsiders in Luojiazhuang other than them. In short, in the entire huge inn, there was no one else but them at this time.
Seeing Xuan Gui and the others appear, Jing Yu raised his eyebrows in surprise, Nan Sui rubbed his eyes vigorously, looking incredulous, "Xuan, Senior Brother Xuan Gui?"
Hyun Gyu nodded in satisfaction.
That's right. That's the reaction you should have when you see him.
He quietly glanced at Tang Xiaobai, who was always calm and abnormally calm beside him.
"Why are you here?" Nansui couldn't hide her joy, "How did you get in?"
Fukuda finally learned to be obedient this time, and didn't say anything superfluous, but only said arrogantly, "Because our boss is powerful." ”
Nan Sui sighed and nodded thoughtfully, "Indeed." It's time to catch up with Xiaobai. ”
Fukuda seemed a little unhappy with her statement, and was about to refute it, when Yu Guang saw that Hyun Gyu was staring at him with warning, he quickly shut up, and moved to stand behind his boss in small steps, quiet as a chicken.
He didn't want to be burned again.
Tang Xiaobai asked Nansui, "Can you find Luo Hai?"
Nansui shook his head, "Those little beggars are so timid that they don't let anyone approach at all, and it wasn't until we went to find Luo Si later that we finally figured out what was going on." ”
She called Tang Xiaobai and a few people to sit down first, and then explained, "Luo Si said that it was because Luo Peide used to think that those little beggars were too much of an eyesore, and he was tired of them always coming to the door to beg from time to time, so he sent people from outside the village to come in, pretending to be merciful and giving them poisonous steamed buns, it is said that five or six children were poisoned at that time......"
Nan Sui clenched his fists, his face full of anger, "Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, how can this Luo Peide treat his children like this?"
Hearing her say this, Tang Xiaobai couldn't help but think of the man in red who was crying, laughing and half crazy he saw today, and he was a little silent in his heart.
"But beyond that, we got some amazing news. ”
Nansui took a sip of water, straightened her emotions and said, "It is said that most of the mothers of these children were daughters of wealthy families before. Luo Peide has done all the bad things over the years, in order to occupy people's land or dowry, or seduc, or use force, he always defiles them first and then marries them, and then slowly infiltrates his mother's family under the banner of doing business, and once he succeeds, he immediately divorces his wife and drives him out. ”
"Since what he did was so hurtful, didn't anyone take the lead in resisting?" Fukuda asked.
Nansui shook his head, "He's very smart, and every time he does things, he only targets one family." Moreover, at that time, they only wanted daughters and dowries, so most families chose to tolerate it for the time being. Those who have decent family conditions have moved out of here early, and those who are left behind now are either poor people who can't afford to move out, or rich peasant squires who have long become Luo Peide's minions. ”
"It's so hateful!" Hyun Gyu slapped the table and stood up angrily after hearing this, and said viciously, "This kind of man who bullies and brutalizes women and children is really damned, Lao Tzu will go and slaughter that bastard now!"
"No, I can't. Tang Xiaobai stopped him, "You also saw it today, immortal magic can't hurt them at all, anyway, let's wait until I see Lin Caiyue in the evening before making plans." ”
