Chapter 112 Wait and see
As far as I know, Hu Taosheng is Hu Hongtian's heart and the pearl of his palm, because of Hu Taosheng's death, Hu Hongtian was even depressed for many years, but Xiao Qingyu's words were clearly implying that Hu Taosheng's death was related to Hu Hongtian.
"Senior brother, if you say too much, you will lose!" Liu Yusheng opened his mouth to remind.
Xiao Qingyu's words, he didn't continue, this Liu Yusheng must have been afraid of what I knew, so he deliberately interrupted Xiao Qingyu.
After that, until they got out of the car, neither Liu Yusheng nor Xiao Qingyu opened their mouths again.
In the evening, we settled in a small town, and I heard Liu Yusheng say that there are still about three days to go to our destination, and we will rest here for the night and leave early tomorrow morning.
Liu Yusheng ordered some food and wanted to sit down and eat something together to cushion his stomach, but Xiao Qingyu just ate a few bites casually and went back to the room early to rest.
Leaving me and Liu Yusheng alone, I glanced at the upstairs guest room, looked at Liu Yusheng again, and asked, "What is the task this time?" What kind of monsters do you want to collect? ”
"Going to Ruicheng to catch demons is just a pretense, so you don't need to be too careful, when the time comes, when Xiao Qingyu leaves, we can get down to business." Liu Yusheng said lightly while eating his meal.
"This time, he is acting with us, how can he leave first?" I looked at Liu Yusheng suspiciously.
Liu Yusheng glanced at me: "You don't have to worry about this, but you have to think clearly, the demon pill, do you dare to swallow it?" ”
"Dare!" I said without hesitation.
When Liu Yusheng heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "Very good, I didn't see the wrong person." ”
After that, he took the initiative to pick me some dishes, and after the two of them finished eating seemingly calmly, they both went back to their rooms.
Lying in the inn room, I felt uneasy, tossing and turning all night without falling asleep, thinking that I could only wait and see what happened.
The next day, when the genius was bright, Liu Yusheng came and knocked on my door, I washed up briefly, and followed him downstairs, Xiao Qingyu was already waiting downstairs.
After buying some dry food, we went straight to the road, and for the next three days, I spent most of my sleep in a false sleep, and the road was relatively calm and steady.
I didn't go wrong until I got to Ruicheng, but after entering Ruicheng, I felt that this should be an empty city.
Needless to say, most of the houses in the city have collapsed, and it looks like they have experienced a catastrophe.
Liu Yusheng opened the Demon Slaughter Order to check the address on the Demon Slaughter Order, and showed Xiao Qingyu the way, and after the car passed through several streets, it finally entered a deep alley.
The alley is lined with low bungalows on both sides, and there are many bullet holes left on the walls of the bungalows.
I also noticed a black thing hanging in front of the bungalows on both sides.
It wasn't a lantern, and it was wrapped in black cloth.
Xiao Qingyu drove the car to the bottom and entered the deepest part of the alley before stopping in front of a small three-story building that seemed to be better than the other bungalows.
Presumably, the client should be in this small building.
Xiao Qingyu and Liu Yusheng got out of the car one after another, and I also got out of the car, stood in front of this small building, and saw that there was also something covered with a black cloth hanging at the door of this small building.
"Bang bang bang!"
Xiao Qingyu walked to the dark wooden door, raised his head and knocked on the wooden door, but there was no reaction inside.
"Mr. Yang, we are from the Deeper Pavilion in Beijing!" Xiao Qingyu saw that no one paid attention to the knock on the door, so he opened his mouth and shouted.
"Click."
This time, there was the sound of footsteps coming from inside, almost at a trot.
"Squeak!"
Soon, a crack opened in the wooden door, and half of his face was revealed from inside, a middle-aged man with a mustache.
"Are you really from Deepavali? Is there a demon slayer order? "This man is quite vigilant, and he actually asked about the Demon Slayer Order.
I remember going to my employer's house before, and no one ever offered to show us the Deeper.
Liu Yusheng spread out the demon slayer order and showed it to the other party, and the other party glanced at it, then opened the door and motioned for us to go in quickly.
The three of us walked in sideways, and when we entered, we felt like we couldn't see our fingers, which was in stark contrast to the scorching sun outside.
After squinting for a long time, I gradually got used to the darkness inside, and this time I came in was a front hall, but the walls of the front hall were surrounded by black cloth, and even behind the door there was a black cloth, and after we came in, it was tightly covered.
"Come with me, my lord has been waiting for you for a long time." The man said as he led us towards the back of the front hall, where there were several other rooms, just quiet, not like they were occupied.
"Knock knock!" The man cautiously knocked on one of them.
"Who?" A slightly trembling, very weak man's voice came from within.
"Master is me, Lao Xue, you open the door, and the people from the Deepavali Pavilion are here." As soon as Lao Xue's words fell, the door of the house immediately opened.
A man with long braids and a beard leaned out of the room, his eyes were puffy, and the dark circles under his eyes were extremely heavy, and he could see that he had not slept for many days.
His dark eyes glanced at the three of us quickly, and then asked to see the Slaughterer Order, and, as if he knew more than the butler, let us show him the waist card as well.
After checking everything repeatedly, he was relieved and let us into his house.
The room was dimly lit with oil lamps, the air was cloudy, and there was a soft collapse in the room, and a small table beside the soft collapse, on which was a smoking gun.
After the three of us came in, the man closed the door, and even the old Xue didn't let him in.
He motioned for us to sit down, and then he lay back on top of the soft collapse, lying on his side, with a smoking gun in one hand, and began to swallow the clouds.
We sat down on the bench, and Xiao Qingyu opened his mouth and asked Mr. Yang what the situation was here.
Mr. Yang spit out a puff of smoke rings, stared at his swollen bubble eyes, and said: "It's over, it's all over, that thing, come every night, we are about to run out of food for it, so we will give all the belongings to you Deepavali Hall, let you come to help get rid of the demon!" ”
"Can you explain the situation? On this demon slaughter order, it is only written that it is the corpse demon that needs to be eliminated. Xiao Qingyu asked carefully and routinely.
The man sniffed and sat up with some difficulty, but he was still reluctant to put down the cigarette gun in his hand.
He said that things started three months ago, when he was still the richest man in Ruicheng, and he was also a parent official assigned by the imperial court many years ago, but after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, he could only scavenge some money here and live in Ruicheng.
But although I know that in a big battle three months ago, even this last "peace" was disrupted, the enemy army attacked the city, countless casualties were killed, and Ruicheng was also destroyed!
