Chapter 029 - The City of Innocence (9)

"Your Excellency's question, you just have to answer!" Dyeing clothes dodged and let the old shopkeeper come to the front, and said softly!

The old shopkeeper stood alone, stretched his neck, and looked at a few people one by one.

First of all, the young, good-looking, and energetic young man Lang Chu Xichen.

He turned his gaze again, propped his elbows on the table, supported his chin with his palms, and looked at Qi Xiaoqi who was also looking at him!

In the end, while swallowing saliva with difficulty, he glanced at Chu Tianchen, who had an indifferent look on his face, but his eyes were blazing!

"You, are you really that legendary immortal? That one...... Is that the Venerable Lord of the Easy Palace? ”

The old shopkeeper was too excited and frightened, his voice was the same as his body, and he couldn't stop trembling!

The Escape Palace?

In the eyes of the common people, it is tantamount to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall above the Nine Heavens!

What a blessing it must be to see with your own eyes the 'immortals' that have only appeared in rumors!

Or, God opened his eyes and finally sent the gods down to rescue the innocent creatures in this innocent city!

Before anyone could answer, the old shopkeeper's trembling body like chaff suddenly became short, and he knelt down directly, and kept kowtowing to the ground, still chanting words in his mouth

"Little old man has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and he has neglected all the immortals, don't blame you...... Quick, save the people of our city......"

When Chu Tianchen saw this posture, he turned out to be a blind person who had not seen it, after all, he was well-informed!

In the past, when I was training, I did a lot of things to help the people exorcise evil spirits and suppress demons!

So, the comparison didn't have much of a reaction!

"Hey, don't!" Qi Xiaoqi couldn't sit still first!

may be born servile, accustomed to others sitting and she standing, others drinking and watching her......

Now not only is it the other way around, but it's also an old man who can be his father at his age, and he can't stop kowtowing at his feet!

She can't stand this anymore!

Qi Xiaoqi bypassed Chu Tianchen, hurriedly squatted down to help the old man up, and kept persuading him

"Why are you so polite...... No, no, hurry up! Qi Xiaoqi stood up with the shopkeeper in his arms, and saw that the old man's face was already covered with tears, and he couldn't bear it in his heart, so he continued

"Don't worry, my master is the Venerable of the Xiaoyao Palace, and the magic power is boundless to eliminate harm for the people, that's all within the bounds, don't be polite!"

The shopkeeper raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, and kept nodding, but he forgot to get down to business for a while!

Qi Xiaoqi was a little sad and stood aside and pouted, and stopped talking!

But listening to Chu Tianchen's voice, he seemed impatient, and said coldly

"Most of the restaurants and inns in the city are empty, but the shopkeeper is still guarding the inn and refuses to leave, and is willing to let me in. Speaking of which, there is some fate! ”

As soon as Chu Tianchen said this, Dye Yi was slightly stunned at first, and then looked at Chu Tianchen.

Seeing that the Venerable did not give one more step, he also spoke without authorization

"Miss Qi, let's go back and sit for a while!"

Qi Xiaoqi hadn't finished feeling sad yet, and when she heard Dye Yi call her, she said soberly

"I'm not tired, just stand for a while!"

Chu Tianchen's hand on his knee curled up and continued to say in a calm voice

"You might as well tell the deity about the things in the city in detail!"

The old shopkeeper was distracted for a moment, and it wasn't until Chu Tianchen's cold gaze shot straight into his eyes that he woke up like a dream and said slowly......

It turned out that this inn was originally one of the better ones in the city.

At first, it was just a small tea shed, but when business gradually improved, the shopkeeper and his wife summed it up, not only expanding the store, but also hiring a few men......

The days are getting better and better, and I have a daughter under my knees, which is really a happy family!

Who knows, just because of the sudden monster a few days ago, all the good things have come to an end.

The bustling scene of the city was short-lived, replaced by a bleak and empty city......

In order to save their lives, the people closed their doors and did not come out! Filing a case and burning incense, in order that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can drive the demons out of the city as soon as possible

I remember that day when the streets were full of people and the excitement was unusual, and my wife and daughter also went to join in the fun.

And then ...... Never came back!

The customers in the store, scattered, scattered, died! He was the only one left, like a puppet with a lost soul, staring at the closed doors and windows every day, waiting for the faint hope......

"Have you ever seen that demon with your own eyes?" Chu Tianchen asked in a deep voice!

The shopkeeper replied

"I've seen it, I've seen it...... Just a glance from afar! ”

"But the shape of a cat?"

"Yes, yes...... It's just the appearance of a cat, a big cat. Black and white body...... The tail is half a foot long, and it is as thick as the mouth of a bowl......"

When it comes to the brute who killed his wife and daughter, the shopkeeper was horrified and hated, and his eyes were red and bloodshot!

"But what else is unusual? Like, like, what sounds? ”

It was not superfluous for Dye Yi to ask this question, because he clearly remembered that the Lingyun Pavilion disciple outside the Bone Burial City had said that he seemed to have heard the sound of a musical instrument!

"Voice?" The shopkeeper's eyes seemed to be confused, and then he shook his head and said

"Since my wife and daughter were killed, that is, the time I went out to look for their mother and daughter, I glanced at the demon from afar, and I never dared to go out again! So, I really don't remember any voices coming out......"

"So...... That's it! ”

Chu Tianchen got up and said lightly, "The deity knows, I will go to meet that demon tonight!" ”

"Brother, I'll go with you!" Chu Xichen, who hadn't spoken for a long time, also stood up and said with a solemn face!

Chu Tianchen smiled indifferently and said

"You and Xiaoqi stay in the inn, and you can dye your clothes with me!"

"I'm not going to do it!" When Qi Xiaoqi heard this, he was very dissatisfied and shouted, "Hehe's mana, I think it still needs to be strengthened......

This sentence blurted out, Qi Xiaoqi really wanted to strangle himself to death, looked at Chu Xichen, and sure enough, he had already lowered his head, and his face was depressed!

"I didn't mean that!"

Qi Xiaoqi explained with a dry smile, "Hehe, I didn't say that your kung fu is not good...... I just think that right now, life and death matters...... It's better to follow the master...... Whole! ”

Qi Xiaoqi's voice became smaller and smaller, and the more he explained, the worse it became! When he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, Chu Xichen suddenly raised his head, looked at Qi Xiaoqi with a smile and said

"It's okay, you're right! It's better to be safe! ”

"I know you're not so stingy, you won't be angry with me!" Qi Xiaoqi patted Chu Xichen's arm and smiled with relief!

"So, you're going to follow the deity to catch youkai?" Chu Tianchen looked at Qi Xiaoqi, who was still smiling, and said!

"Of course, I'll be where you are!" Qi Xiaoqi affirmed, and said seriously!

"It's better for Miss Qi and the second son to stay, otherwise they really bump into it, and if you start to do it, your dignity may not have time to protect the two of you!"

Dye Yi thought about it again and again, but still persuaded out loud.
