When his divine consciousness returned, the smell of herbs came to his nose, Ling Yue only felt that his whole body hurt terribly, and his hands and feet felt like they were being restrained by something and couldn't move, and someone was feeding him medicine, the medicine was very bitter, and his whole mouth was numb... When he opened his eyes, he found a kind old woman standing in front of him.

Ling Yue was stunned, this is probably the legendary Meng Po... With this thought, he closed his eyes in despair, it seems that he didn't survive after all, and sure enough, if he touched the demon, there was no good result... I don't know how Grandma Shi and Changying will react when they know that they are dead...

Ling Yue, who was full of despair, let a tear go down the corner of his eyes, but he was helpless, and when he was sad, he was stuffed with soup by that Meng Po into his mouth, and he couldn't react for a while but was choked, and then burst out into a violent cough, and the injury all over his body hurt a little more. It still hurts so much when you're dead... In the interval of choking, this person still had an empty stomach and two sentences, but in a trance, he suddenly saw Huang Wuye's face in front of him: "Yo, you are awake." ”

This familiar tone! Ling Yue's eyes widened and he looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, the grief just now was suddenly dispelled by joy, it turned out that he was still alive! He struggled to get up, but was held down by Huang Wuye: "Don't move yet." Turning her head and calling Lang Zhong to come over, the mother-in-law who was feeding the medicine took the opportunity to stuff the medicine into Ling Yue's mouth again before getting up and leaving.

This Lang Zhong came over with a kind face to probe the pulse, and saw that Ling Yue still had a look of grief on his face whether he was about to die, so he explained: "Don't worry about this son, although there are many injuries on this body, most of them are bruises, and you can get better by applying medicine for a few days, that is, this little boy will insist on surrounding this thick layer, remember not to touch the water these days, just wait for the wound to scab over and untie the gauze." ”

Ling Yue finally relieved himself when he heard this, leaned his neck to look at his hands and feet that were wrapped in mummies, the corners of his mouth twitched a little unconsciously, and asked Huang Wuye, "What about the tree demon?"

I saw that this person pushed Ling Yue's leg along the bed roughly, causing him to gasp in pain: "Light, it hurts!"

The man sitting on the edge of the bed was very disdainful: "Scratch some skin." ”

"Then you asked Lang Zhong to wrap me like this?"

Huang Wuye pursed his lips and was noncommittal, and only told the story of the tree demon one by one, so that he didn't tell Ling Yue that he had been watching him here for almost two days, and he was very worried when he saw that he had not woken up.

Ling Yue saw that he was blue and black at the moment, and he also guessed a rough idea in his heart, coupled with Yu You's words in the lobby of the City Mansion, his heart was really more and more moved, and he wanted to tease him twice, but when he saw him bypassing the topic, he just treated him as thin-skinned and didn't say anything more. Listening intently to him about the dryad, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, it turned out that this dryad was also a miserable master...

"How's Lord Lian?"

"This old man is also self-inflicted, he has been lying in bed for so long, and he will not be able to do it when we get him out. ”

Ling Yue nodded, it was true that this Lord Lian did not deserve sympathy, but why did this tree demon kill Master Yuan.

"The lame man saw him outside the city, and thought it was Lord Lian who woke up, and greeted him attentively, but who knew that it was a fake... This dryad had already seen that he was not pleasing to his eyes, so he directly killed him over there..."

Ling Yue sighed at the roof, although the tree demon had a reason, it was really vicious: "What about the Zhang Mansion extermination case, does this tree demon have anything to do with that Zhang Mansion?"

For some reason, Huang Wuye hesitated a little now: "This case..."

"En?" Ling Yue turned his head suspiciously, not knowing which tendon to drive, and he grinned in pain.

"The tree demon recognized the matter of the lame man Yuan and the old man Lian, and the Zhang Fu case should have nothing to do with him. That Xiao Zhili has already acted as the city secretary of Qin Tong, and he is re-investigating the previous case of Zhangfu's extermination. ”

Ling Yue raised his eyebrows, this Qin Tong really used this case to return to officialdom, but if Qin Tong was to re-investigate, would he target his grandmother again.

Just thinking about it, Changying helped Grandma Shi into the house.

"Brother Ling, you've finally woken up. Changying looked at Ling Yue, who was wrapped in zongzi, and was very at a loss.

Ling Yue hurriedly put away his thoughts and smiled comfortingly at him: "It's okay, I'm not fine." ”

"You dead baby, what are you doing in such a dangerous place, my wife has been worried for a few days in vain. Grandma Shi was so protective of him, seeing that the child was awake, she couldn't help but have red eyes, which suddenly made Ling Yue's heart very sour, but she was speechless.

Seeing them like this, Huang Wuye planned to get up and leave to leave them alone, Ling Yue hurriedly asked him if he was still in Qiuling City for the past two days, and when he saw him nodding, he made an appointment with him to wait for two days to see him again. Huang Wuye opened his mouth, and seeing that Ling Yue's attention had returned to Chang Ying, he swallowed what he wanted to say and left first.

Huang Wuye returned to the broken temple with a worried face, yes, he didn't tell Ling Yue about something, but if Ling Yue knew about it, he was afraid that this person would go to the ground in a hurry now.

It's going back to two days ago, after they got rid of the dryad.

That day, they were very tired to solve the case of the tree demon, although Xiao Zhili said that he had waited for the end of the demon collection before arriving, but the scene in front of him made him very panicked, recalling the scene of the fox demon in the lobby of the city division mansion that day, he felt that his little heart could not stand such a blow again, standing in the dilapidated courtyard and regretting why he had accepted the invitation of Lord Lian that day, this half a month was really thrilling.

In that case, this time I have to go back to Zhushan County, and it is at least much safer to deal with people than with demons... Thinking about this, Xiao Zhili planned to set off immediately, but he still had to find someone to take over this mess, he glanced at the audience, and saw that Qin Tong was looking at him with a look of wanting to speak and stopping, but he thought about it, only to see him walk to Qin Tong's side with his hands behind his back, and patted him on the back with great relief: "Master Qin, this time it's really hard for you." ”

Qin Tong was still panicked: "Where is it, what the villain should do." ”

"You don't have to be modest, this time it's really your great achievement, so it seems that this Lord Lian saw the right person at the time, I really misunderstood you before. ”

"If you are an adult, I also had a crooked mind before..."

Xiao Zhili waved his hand and interrupted him: "As long as it can be done in the end, it doesn't matter what kind of means you use, since you have proven yourself, then I can't let such a talent fall into the people, and now that Lord Lian has also gone west, I don't think it is better for you to act as the head of the city first." ”

When Qin Tong heard this, he was flattered and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Lord Xie Xiao." ”

"You check the case first, I will allocate some manpower to you when I go back to the county today, after all, your case here is really dangerous..."

"Lord Xie Xiao, the villain will live up to your entrustment and make every effort to investigate the Zhang Mansion case!" said a bang on the ground.

Xiao Zhili nodded with satisfaction, but in fact, he didn't care about the outcome of the Zhang Mansion case at all, and the most important thing now was to leave this place quickly.

That night, Xiao Zhili took advantage of the curfew to leave Qiu Ling City with his men, and the men he called those who had been transferred did not show up in the two days that Ling Yue was unconscious.

Qin Tong didn't care much about this, after all, in his opinion, it was already a great thing to be able to act as the city secretary, if he could find out the case of Zhang's mansion, maybe he would be able to apply to Xiao Zhili to be the city secretary directly, and when he thought of this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. So, when Huang Wuye came to settle the bill with him, he was also very generous and paid the silver money according to the previous promise, and also set up a banquet in the mansion to entertain everyone present at the time, many people passed by the city division mansion where the outer wall was broken, and also came to congratulate Qin Tong on his ascension.

When the banquet was dispersed and in the dead of night, Qin Tong recalled Xiao Zhili's words that these cases were complicated and very dangerous. It is false to say that he is not afraid, and now it seems that the Zhang Fu case may be related to some demon, but now that Master Yuan is dead, the Lincheng demon hunter he invited to help before also went back to the city, and Huang Wuye Lin Gao is an outsider after all, and this Qiuling City can't do without its own resident demon hunter.

This person thought about it, but he figured out a personal choice, he vaguely remembered that Boss Zhu, who opened the underground race demon field, also knew some spells, otherwise how could he fiddle with the demon in the race demon field, and now that the race demon field was burned, he seemed to see this person on the street a few days ago wandering around with nothing to do, so it was better to invite him to help first.

Qin Tong, who had already made up his mind, sent someone to invite Boss Zhu to come over early the next morning, but he didn't expect that the little guy who was looking for someone rushed back, and Boss Zhu had been dead at home for several days...
