Volume 1 The Lost Pearls of Liao Zhai Chapter 25 The Lost Pearls of Liao Zhai (5)

"I'll take a look."

After that, Pu Songling looked out from the gap in the window grille, and saw dozens of villagers standing outside Liaozhai with torches waiting for them - the leader was none other than Wang Hongqing, he shouted: "Pu Songling, you old thing, keep monsters privately at home, get out of here!" ”

Chen Shuqing couldn't believe her ears, and said with a disgraced face: "It's Aqing, how could he ......?"

Pu Songling sighed: "It seems that he pretended to accept you, just afraid that you would hurt him at that time." Alas, in the end, shemales can't coexist, now, you know the sinister nature of the human heart, right? ”

Chen Shuqing's tears poured out, and she asked desperately: "No, Aqing, no...... No, no...... Sir, what should I do now? ”

"Staying here will only bring you ruin." Pu Songling pointed to the path at the back door, "You quickly escape from the back door and go up the mountain, don't hesitate, ten miles away, there is a cave, you wait for me there, after three days, I will make you a human, and then leave Pujiazhuang together." ”

Chen Shuqing was undecided, and muttered: "Sir, but I ......"

At this time, someone had already knocked on the door and shouted: "Pu Songling, we know that you and Chen Shuqing are at home, get out of here!" Otherwise, we'll burn the house! ”

Pu Songling urged: "You go quickly!" ”

Chen Shuqing cried: "Don't go!" If they want to kill me, I will turn into a fox demon and kill them, and see who is more ruthless! ”

Pu Songling said sharply: "You must not have such thoughts, even if you hurt someone's life, it is tantamount to denying my original intention of saving you at that time, and I will not be blind to being a ghost!" You give me go, go quickly! ”

Chen Shuqing finally nodded: "Okay, I'll go, sir, please keep your promise, three days later, come to the cave to find me and turn me into a human!" After saying that, he fled to the mountain with tears in his eyes.

Pu Songling calmly opened the door and asked casually at the crowd: "What are you doing when you folks come to find the old man so late?" ”

Wang Hongqing said loudly: "Pu Songling, we have long suspected that there is something wrong with your Chen Shuqing, how can there be a woman with that color of hair?" Today, I saw that she had become a fox demon, we villagers respect you in vain for being a generation of demon exterminators, call you 'Liuquan Jushi', I don't want you to hide from us to raise monsters privately, today, we want you to hand over Chen Shuqing, we can spare you from dying! ”

Pu Songling smiled and said, "Wang Gongzi must have some misunderstanding, right?" My Shuqing has left Pujiazhuang yesterday, to go to the field to do business, please go home first, three days later, the old man will lead Shuqing to give you an explanation. ”

Wang Hongqing said disdainfully: "Doing things? Hmph, everyone, since Chen Shuqing came to Pujiazhuang nineteen years ago, everyone knows that the woman has no relatives and no reason since she was a child, and she has never left Pujiazhuang for so many years. May I ask Mr. Liuquan, where is Chen Shuqing going? So what's going on? ”

"This ......" Pu Songling was speechless for a while, unable to think of a word for the round.

An old man stood out of the crowd and said generously: "Mr. Pu, for the sake of your meritorious work in eliminating demons for many years, tonight, as long as you hand over the demon girl, I guarantee in the name of the village chief, and the villagers will definitely not hurt you in the slightest." ”

"Yes, hand it over!"

"Hand over the youkai!"

The roar of anger continued to come out of the crowd, over the years, the monsters have done a lot of evil, hurting people's lives, Pujiazhuang has not been violated, people have long hated the monsters, and there is no room for compromise.

Pu Songling said helplessly: "Shuqing is really not at home, don't believe it, you go into the chat to search......"

Before the words fell, an egg flew over and hit Pu Songling's forehead, only to hear someone in the crowd shouting: "What nonsense are you talking about this old man?" We catch monsters, and we still need his consent? ”

"Okay, don't talk nonsense with him, let's go search!" After Wang Hongqing finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed into Liaozhai. Other people also followed, and for a while, the fireworks inside and outside the chat were bright and crowded.

Suddenly, there was a loud breathing sound in the sky: "Ha-ha-ha-"

The crowd exclaimed: "Sure enough, there are monsters, Chen Shuqing, where are you?" Get the hell out of here! ”

Pu Songling suddenly felt like a great enemy, because he knew that a half-demon like Chen Shuqing would not make such a sound, and this could only be a real monster. He realized something and shouted, "Fellow villagers, it's the Demon Emperor Brother who is here, you guys run!" ”

I saw a huge figure, like a small mountain, coming step by step from afar. With every step the figure took, there was a shock on the ground, leaving the crowd dumbfounded.

Someone scolded: "Damn, this old man Pu actually summoned the Demon Emperor Brother Buttress to deal with us!" ”

"The Demon Emperor is here, everyone run for their lives!"

The crowd shouted loudly, while panicking birds and beasts scattered, each taking their lives and fleeing, for a while, the originally noisy chattering people went to the empty building, leaving only the elderly Pu Songling alone to face the demon emperor who was getting closer and closer.

Brother Duo laughed and said, "Hahaha, Pu Songling, such ugly human beings, do you still want to continue to protect them?" ”

Pu Songling looked at his seventy-five-year-old body and said to himself, "Do I still have the strength to continue to protect them?" ”

"Pu Songling, why don't you give me your heart obediently, let me become a demon emperor who is more powerful than that Chiyou, and then destroy these poor ants and create a great new world with only monsters, how about it?"

"Hmph, when you get to hell, you can dream slowly." Pu Songling raised the purification power on his body to the limit, and without saying a word, he flew towards the Demon Emperor......

The two unusually powerful forces collided in the air, and in an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, and it snowed heavily in the sky.

……

Chen Shuqing, who was running on the mountain road, suddenly had Pu Songling's voice in his mind: "Shuqing, Shuqing, can you hear my voice?" ”

Chen Shuqing suddenly stopped and looked around: "Sir, sir...... Where are you? ”

Except for the heavy snow, Chen Shuqing did not see Pu Songling's familiar figure. After a while, the voice sounded again: "Shuqing, that's it, you don't know how to transmit your voice yet, I can't hear your voice, but I believe you can hear what I say, I will use the last purification power to talk to you, you must listen well......

Tonight, I used all my purification power to seal the Demon Emperor Brother Battlement that went south. My mission as an old thing has been accomplished, but I can't get rid of the monsters in the hearts of the world. This task will be entrusted to the people of the world in 100, 200, or even 1,000 years......

At that time, people would say: 'Pu Songling was depressed all his life, so he had to indulge in writing strange novels, what a useless person.' 'Hehe, whatever they say, I don't care, my only regret is that I didn't purify you, my good daughter, into a human being, and then send you to the sedan chair to welcome you...... You say, "How beautiful should you be when you get married...... Hehe, it's a pity I can't see it. However, I wrote an article "The Fox Marries a Girl" to entrust you and me with the beautiful dreams we share, and I hope you can see it in the future...... Also, please live well, even if you are born to be a human being with all kinds of ugliness, even if my book is full of charms, but I always love human beings, and please don't give up, your desire to become a human being, I believe that one day, someone will help you realize it...... Goodbye, Shuqing, my good daughter......"

After that, there was no more sound, Chen Shuqing knelt on the snow, crying and shouting: "Daddy! I'll wait for you! I will always wait for you! ”
