Hearing Xiao Li's words, the mayor's face showed a touch of heartache. He has always been very optimistic about Xiao Li, and even regarded him as his successor, but he didn't expect that he would be so confused as to let Qin Xiusheng go.

Xiao Li shook his head and replied solemnly, "Mayor Town, I have been following her since I became an adult's guard. I probably know more about adults than anyone else in town. To put it bluntly, in my opinion, the adult was not deceived, and everything she did came from the heart. ”

"Don't say any more!" Hearing Xiao Li's words, the mayor's face turned blue. He snorted coldly and interrupted Xiao Li's words, "How could an adult be willing to save him, the messenger of the devil? You must have also been bewitched by his use of witchcraft to say such a thing." ”

In the face of the mayor's anger, Xiao Li did not flinch at all. He shook his head and said with a serious expression, "You may be reluctant to believe it, but what I say is all true. Neither I nor the adults were fooled, and it seemed to me that he had no intention of harming the town. Otherwise, how could he have come back here after leaving?"

Hearing Xiao Li's words, the town mayor's body trembled. In his heart, he unswervingly believed that Qin Xiusheng was the source of evil, and it was he who bewitched Xiao Qi and wanted to bring bad luck to the town. But Xiao Li has been trying his best to excuse him, which makes the mayor very angry.

"He must have come back this time with a bigger conspiracy brewing!" the mayor said in a cold voice, "He must have been caught by us before, and he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart." When you come back this time, you must have taken revenge on us!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Qin Xiusheng couldn't help but secretly shake his head.

"Mayor Mare, I'm not a demonic messenger, I'm just a doctor. Qin Xiusheng shook his head lightly and whispered to the mayor, "I didn't come back to take revenge. If I really do what you say, I will use all kinds of witchcraft and evil methods, how can I appear in front of you like this if I want to take revenge?"

Hearing Qin Xiusheng's explanation, the town mayor was speechless for a while. He was right, if Qin Xiusheng was really as powerful as he said, how could he be easily caught by the townspeople

At this time, the townspeople who had brought Qin Xiusheng before also spoke, "Mayor Town, I also think that he is not as evil as you said. Earlier, the adults asked us to let him go immediately without informing you. We had no choice at the time, and we had already agreed to him, but he offered to come and see you. ”

The townsfolk told the mayor what happened to Xiaoqi before, and the mayor's brows furrowed even deeper after hearing this. If the townspeople hadn't lied, even he didn't believe that Qin Xiusheng meant to harm the town.

Just when the mayor hesitated, Xiaoqi finally arrived. Seeing Xiao Qi coming, the mayor frowned slightly, and asked Xiao Qi in a deep voice, "My lord, I heard that you wanted to let him go without telling me before?"

Faced with the mayor's questioning, Xiaoqi nodded without hesitation and admitted. She glanced at Qin Xiusheng deeply, and then slowly spoke, "Mayor Town, I hope you can let us tell you the truth of the matter. If you're still a part of this town, let's get to the end of the conversation and you can judge. ”

Seeing Xiao Qi's serious expression, the mayor hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Since adults say so, then I'll listen to it." However, if I can't come up with a convincing argument that will convince me and the townspeople, then I will immediately burn him at the stake. ”

Seeing that the town mayor was relieved, Qin Xiusheng nodded hurriedly. With the cooperation of him and Xiaoqi, you said the plague in front of all the townspeople.

Listening to the explanations of the two, the mayor fell into deep thought for a moment, and he didn't know whether to believe what the two said.

At this time, Xiao Qi took out a plant from his pocket and put it in front of the mayor, "When the festival was held in the town, I always gave the townspeople holy water, which was made from this herb. ”

Taking the plant from Xiao Qi's hand, the mayor put the herb next to his nose, sniffed it vigorously, frowned and said, "It smells the same as holy water, but what's the use of this herb?"

Xiao Qi sighed, and said that he was infected with the plague, and accidentally said that he was delayed by medicinal herbs. After hearing this, the mayor did not speak for a long time, and fell into deep thought.

"You're saying that the plague in the people of the town is not cured, but only temporarily suppressed?" After thinking for a long time, the mayor said slowly, as if he still couldn't accept this fact for a while.

Qin Xiusheng nodded on the side, as if he was supporting Xiao Qi. Faced with the sincere words of the two, the mayor couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while, which made him frown deeply.

Like the mayor, the other townsfolk were silent, their faces full of heaviness. The plague in their bodies was not eradicated, but only temporarily suppressed by the medicinal properties of the herbs, and no one who heard it would think it was good news. After all, having such a * in the body that can detonate at any time, no one can sleep peacefully after knowing it. Although the herb can temporarily delay the outbreak of the plague, who can guarantee how long its medicinal properties will last?

"Your Excellency, you're not kidding, are you?" the mayor's face was full of disbelief, he looked at Xiao Qi with deep eyes, and asked her, "So, the town is not free from the doom of destruction at all, as long as the medicine is over, the whole town will be swallowed by the plague immediately?"

"Yes, even I don't know how long the herb lasts. Xiao Qi's face showed a solemnity, she nodded, and said seriously, "If this continues, one day this town will disappear from the map forever." ”

All the townspeople present were silent, though the day of destruction might be long before they fell. But suddenly knowing such a thing, their hearts have been unable to let go.

Seeing the worry on the faces of the townspeople, Xiao Qi's words changed, "I originally thought that everything would be like this, but I didn't expect that there would be a solution suddenly." ”

Xiao Qi's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, and everyone looked at her with expectant eyes, expecting her to give an answer.

Slowly stretching out his finger, Xiao Qi pointed at Qin Xiusheng, "It is the person in front of you who gives me hope." He can completely eradicate the plague in our bodies and free us from our cursed fate. ”
