Chapter Seventy-Seven: Accepting the Mission

"Village Chief, our two brothers have nothing to do with the two merchants half a year ago, besides, if we really want to harm the village, how can we venture into the mountains to find the mountain demon?"

Han Qianyu looked at the village chief and said sincerely.

"What, you went up to the mountain to catch the mountain demon?" the village chief was shocked.

"Exactly, and we almost caught the mountain demon. Han Qianyu said.

"It's nonsense, village chief, the mountain demons were clearly released by them, how can we believe that they will be kind enough to catch the mountain demons for us?" Liu An said suddenly.

Seeing Liu Fan's false accusations, Han Qianyu was really unbearable, and immediately retorted, "You said that the mountain demon was released by us, so do you have evidence? Besides, if we didn't go up the mountain to catch the mountain demon, then how do you explain the blood on our bodies?"

"This ......"

was suddenly agitated by Han Qianyu, and Liu An was a little at a loss.

"Liu'an, what else do you have to say?" the village chief suddenly looked at Liu'an, waiting for his answer.

"Village chief, this person has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, don't be gullible, don't harm the village. Liu An said bitterly.

The village chief pondered for a moment and said to Han Qianyu, "If you really see the mountain demon, can you tell the old man what the mountain demon looks like?"

"Village Chief, the mountain demon is a tiger cub. Cui Hao on the side hurriedly replied.

Hearing this, the hall was in an uproar, and Cui Hao's seemingly sincere words led to laughter.

"It's just nonsense, if the mountain demon is a tiger cub, how can it cause the villagers to panic?" Liu Anzhi suddenly asked.

"Village Chief, the mountain demon is indeed a young tiger, but it is not an ordinary tiger, its strength is enough to harm the village. Han Qianyu explained.

"This ......," the village chief pondered, and continued, "Only Erhu and Zhuzi have seen mountain demons in the village, but these two are bedridden. “

There is no way to prove the words of Han Qianyu and Cui Hao, which also makes the village chief full of confusion.

"Can the village chief give the two of me a chance?" Han Qianyu broke the silence and suddenly asked.

"What chance?" asked the village chief.

"The mountain demon will attack the village again tonight, and we brothers will go to catch the mountain demon. I also hope that the village chief can release Aunt Liu. Han Qianyu begged.

"Village chief, by all means, the Wu family violated the village rules and took in outsiders without authorization, and should have been punished with capital punishment, how can it be spared?" Liu An pointed to Aunt Liu who was kneeling on the ground and said.

"Village chief, there is nothing wrong with outsiders, the fault lies in the mountain demon, Aunt Liu is kind-hearted, so I took my two brothers in, and I hope that the village chief will be clear. Han Qianyu said respectfully.

There is some truth to this. The village chief fell into deep thought.

At this time, Aunt Liu was already in tears, and her heart was extremely miserable.

"Mother!"

Liu Xu hurriedly ran over and hugged Aunt Liu.

"Xu'er, I'm sorry, it's my mother who made you feel wronged. Aunt Liu wiped away a handful of tears and said.

"Nope. Liu Xu shook his little head and said coquettishly, "Xu'er is not bitter, Xu'er only needs her mother to be safe." ”

"Village chief, this person is scheming, you can't believe it!" Liu An said fiercely.

The village chief glared at Liu An and said, "Which is right and which is wrong, the old man will know by himself." “

"Village chief, Liu An is also thinking about the village, after all, they are outsiders, how can they be trusted by the village chief. Suddenly, an old man stepped forward and said.

The village chief looked left and right, then turned his gaze to Han Qianyu and said, "See, the villagers don't want to believe you." ”

"Village Chief, the villagers have been plagued by mountain demons for a long time, and it is natural for them to suspect us. Han Qianyu said.

"You haven't complained?" the village chief was shocked.

"Complaining to each other won't solve the problem after all, the key is how to subdue the mountain demon and save the village from fire and water. Han Qianyu was serious.

Listening to Han Qianyu's words, the village chief was quite appreciative, and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! The old man will give you two a chance to capture the mountain demon." However, the Wu family still can't let her go, and the old man won't dispose of her for the time being. If you can catch the mountain demon, the old man will release the Wu family regardless of his previous suspicions, and even you will be rewarded. “

"Thank you village chief, we brothers will do our best to catch the mountain demon and save the village. Han Qianyu said overjoyed.

"No! “

At this time, not only Liu An, but also the others shook their heads again and again, unanimously vetoing the matter.

"I have made up my mind, and you have to talk about it again. The village chief stared at him and said in a deep voice.

"But what if you don't catch the mountain demon?" the village chief asked suddenly.

"If we fail to catch the mountain demon, let the village chief deal with it, but I beg the village chief not to implicate Aunt Liu's family. Han Qianyu replied.

As soon as these words came out, Cui Hao's limbs trembled with fright, it seemed that Han Qianyu was completely open, although he couldn't understand it, he could only acquiesce.

"Okay! Just by what you say, the old man will believe you once, and I hope you will not live up to the old man's expectations. The village chief's eyes flickered.

"The village chief can't! They are just children, how can they accept such a big responsibility? I blame me for everything, and I hope that the village chief will not blame these two children. Aunt Liu said reluctantly.

"Hmph! The old man hasn't taken care of your affairs, but you dare to intercede for outsiders?" the village chief looked quite displeased.

Han Qianyu glanced at Aunt Liu, and said with confidence on her face, "Aunt Liu, don't worry, we can do it." “

Seeing this, Aunt Liu didn't say anything more, so she could only nod secretly.

"Village Chief, even if you believe that they can catch the mountain demon, you have to give a deadline, right?" Liu An's eyes flickered, quite dissatisfied.

"That's right. The village chief nodded, suddenly looked at Han Qianyu, and asked, "How long will it take you?"

"Please give me three days. Han Qianyu replied.

"Three days, three days is too long!" Liu An shook his head.

Han Qianyu glared at Liu An and said, "After all, the mountain demon has high mana, and the deadline is too short, I am afraid that it will not be able to achieve its wish, if not, you will try?"

Liu An's face turned red and he twisted his head to the side.

"Three days is three days. The village chief said in a deep voice, but soon, he looked suspicious again, and asked, "If it is not completed in three days, the old man will dispose of you two according to the wishes of the villagers." ”

"Yes!" Han Qianyu and Cui Hao responded at the same time.

"Let's get out!" the village chief sighed.

Hearing this, Han Qianyu and Cui Hao turned around and walked out of the meeting hall.

"Fourth, are you really sure that you can catch the Red Flame Tiger in three days?" Cui Hao asked.

"Of course. Han Qianyu smiled bitterly.

"You must have a way, why don't you tell me soon?" Cui Hao said angrily.

"It's fine. Han Qianyu nodded.

"Tonight, let's ambush Uncle Liu's house, I will observe from the rooftop, and you will make noise in the courtyard. Try to learn the sounds of chickens and dogs, the more realistic the better. When the time comes, the Red Flame Tiger will naturally fall into the legal net. Han Qianyu's eyes rolled, and he was confident.
