Chapter 8: Distress

As the morning fog cleared, the outline of a small town appeared in front of Luo Ye's eyes.

Jijia Town, a group of people with the surname Ji migrated here hundreds of years ago, and after hundreds of years of development, it expanded into a town, because most people have the surname Ji, so it is called Jijia Town.

"Steamed buns, hot steamed buns. ”

"Rock sugar gourd, sour and sweet rock sugar gourd,"

The town is bustling with people in the morning, full of hawkers and pedestrians.

"Go to the city hall to get the gold coins first, and then go find the soul beast that Uncle Gu asked me to find!"

Entering the town, Luo Ye walked straight towards the city hall.

After walking for a while, a small white three-story building appeared in front of Luo Ye's eyes. There is a plaque hanging on it, engraved with the three words of the city hall, and a dragon-shaped martial soul surrounds the border of the plaque, which is said to be the martial soul of the Tianwu Imperial Family, "Shengwu Tianlong"

"Stop. Children, this is the city hall, you can't just go in. As soon as Luo Ye wanted to go in, the two guards at the door stopped Luo Ye. The doormen all looked like they were about twenty years old, and the soul power fluctuations on their bodies were not obvious, and it seemed that they had not even reached the level of a soul master.

"Uncle, hello, I am the child of the martial soul who has just awakened this year, and I told the awakened master that with this, each of them can receive gold coins, is this true?" Luo Ye took out a copy of the form given by Chen Feng and handed it to the doorman and said.

"I'll see. One of the guards took the copy, looked at it carefully, and then returned it to Luo Ye and said:

"It's true, let's go inside. There will be someone to take care of you in the office on the first floor. With that, he got out of the way.

"Thank you. Luo Ye took the copy, answered, and walked in.

When Luo Ye walked into the hall, his eyes were white, and the whole hall was white, with a few benches in the corners on both sides, and on the back wall was a door with a sign for the reception and a window with a sign for the office.

"Is there anyone, please?" came to the window, Luo Ye gently knocked on the counter and asked.

"Yes. A voice sounded, and then a young woman of about twenty years of age appeared at the window, her face still sleepy-eyed, and the woman yawned and asked:

"Hello, what's the matter?"

"Hello, I'm here to collect this month's gold coins. Luo Ye handed the copy to the woman and said.

"Get the gold coins, well, it seems that this year is good, plus this there are more than twenty. The woman took the copy and said to herself, then placed it into the machine on the counter.

After a while, a murmuring sound sounded, and the woman took out a copy, then took out three gold coins from the drawer, handed them to Luo Ye together, and said with a smile:

"Okay, little guy, you have to cultivate hard, and when you become a soul master, you can receive ten gold coins. ”

"Well, I will, bye-bye. Taking the copy and the gold coin, Luo Ye smiled sweetly, said, and walked out of the city hall.

Just after Luo Ye walked out, the door of the reception opened, and the two old men walked out one after the other, and came to the door, led by an old man who was dressed plainly but decently, his face was full of vicissitudes but revealed wisdom, and in the slightly sunken eye sockets, a pair of dark black eyes revealed a sharp gaze, quietly telling the vicissitudes of the years. The old man looked up at the sky, and then said:

"Lao Yao, look at the sky, Hui'er is about to come back, you go to the town to pick it up. ”

"Yes, sir. The old man in the back answered, and then went to the town.

"Mayor Mare. The woman who received Luo Ye just now walked out and came to the old man's side.

The old man is none other than Ji Wen, the mayor of this town.

"Did you receive a report today? Ji Wen asked with some heart.

"Yes, as soon as I opened the door today, I received a report from the parents that another child is missing. Hearing this, the woman hurriedly replied.

"Alas," Ji Wen sighed when he heard this, and then said angrily:

"Damn the Black Tigers, ahem. Ji Wen coughed violently.

"Mayor Town," the woman cried out worriedly, and hurriedly helped Ji Wen to sit down on the chair next to her, gently patted Ji Wen's back with her hand, and then said:

"Mayor Town, don't worry, isn't Childe coming back soon, waiting for Childe to come back will be the future of this Black Tiger Gang. ”

"Hmm. Thinking of his grandson, Ji Wen's eyes flashed with a hint of relief, nodded and said:

"When Xiaohui comes back, I must completely eradicate the scourge of the Black Tiger Gang. ”

"Well, a complete eradication. The woman also said hatefully.

On the other side, a wide mansion sits on the side of the road, at the gate of the house.

"Ergou, you said that we are really unlucky, others are eating, drinking, and having fun inside, and we are here to guard this gate and drink the northwest wind," the two people were guarding the gate, smelling the fragrance coming from inside and the laughter of the people inside, their hearts were full of envy, one swallowed saliva and said to the other.

"What is there to envy, although they eat happily now, it is in exchange for their lives, maybe they will become dry corpses if they fail to complete the target that day. I don't know how many of them have been carried out in the past few days. Although the other person also envied the benefits of eating and drinking those people, when he thought of everything that he had bought with his life, the envy in his heart did not know where to throw it away.

"Skinny monkey, if you are envious, you can go and ask the helper so that you can go to eat, drink and have fun?"

"Hehe, I'm not just whining, I don't want to die. Brother Dog, you are smart, and you chose this job in the first place. Hearing the words of the second dog, the thin monkey smiled,

"That is, when I chose the job of gatekeeper at the beginning of the division of labor, they all thought I was stupid and chose this kind of thing with less money to do, but now I envy Lao Tzu, I have money to take, although it is little, at least there is no life," Hearing the praise of the thin monkey, the second dog got it flutteringly.

"Hey, Ergou, someone's coming. When the second dog was proud, the thin monkey pulled the second dog and said.

"People?" Ergou looked in the direction of the thin monkey's fingers, and just found a child walking along the road while eating a steamed bun in his hand.

"This is, kid, hahaha, it's really pie in the sky, I didn't expect it to be a good thing to send to the door. Looking at the child, Ergou's heart was full of ecstasy and walked towards the child.

The child the two saw was Luo Ye.

The two came to Luo Ye and stopped Luo Ye with a smile on their faces.
