124 Murder by the sword
After everything was said, Shen Xingyue said: "Miss Xiaorou's leg is injured and it is inconvenient to walk, I also have to go to Qingyun Temple to make a wish, it is better for you to pack some luggage first, I will go to the temple and wish to come back to pick you up, just right, I also have to find a few people, and it is convenient to hire a sedan chair."

Xiao Rou looked at Shen Xingyue with blank eyes, she actually wanted to join him, but what he said was reasonable, and he couldn't refute it, so he had to respond. The steps they have always taken, now they have to follow Shen Xingyue home to see if the real situation in his family is as rich as he appears, but they can't spend their efforts in vain and end up empty.
Shen Xingyue smiled, reassured a few more words, and walked away, he didn't want to take a female goblin back to Windy City. Where to take it, the Xiao Mansion is still the Shen family, or the Juxian Residence. There is no reliable place.
After Shen Xingyue left, she walked unhurriedly to Qingyun Temple, thinking about what reason to find next, but saw Situ Hao coming from the opposite side from a distance.
Isn't this the best candidate right now, not to mention that he still owes himself a debt, Shen Xingyue raised her eyebrows, raised her hand with a smile on her face, and said, "Brother Situ, meet again." ”
Situ Hao was thinking about his thoughts while walking, and was careless, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice, his feet slipped and almost fell, he hurriedly held on to the tree next to him to stabilize his figure, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Xingyue standing far away, and he didn't know what kind of expression to give for a while.
"Where don't we meet in life." Shen Xingyue walked over slowly: "I was thinking about you, and you appeared." ”
"What do you want me to do?" Situ Hao frowned, and said with some vigilance.
"Debt collection, of course." Shen Xingyue said: "I just need someone to do something, and I was worried about who to find just now, but it just so happened that I met you." It's just a meal, and you owe me one more thing, and you won't forget it. ”
Situ Hao snorted, with a look of disdain: "Manly man, it is difficult to chase after a man, since I promised you, I naturally will not regret it, what is it, you can say it." ”
"That's great." Shen Xingyue pointed to the direction she had come from: "You go south along this small hill, and there is a flat land on the top of this hill, and there is a cliff on the edge of the flat land. There is a very large clump of bamboo at the bottom of the cliff, and you can find a random reason to go to the edge of that bamboo and make a fire, preferably the kind that can drive away youkai. ”
"There's a monster in that bamboo forest?" Situ Hao heard some clues: "Where did you just come from?" ”
"Yes, that's another little Rou's nest." Shen Xingyue said: "Since you can see that Xiao Rou is a demon, you should also be able to see the clues, in short, as long as you destroy that bamboo forest within half an hour, and then you will leave naturally, and what you owe me will be completed." I went to Qingyun Temple, and when I returned, I wanted to see a ruin. ”
Situ Hao only felt confused: "Why are you doing this, with your ability, I think it should be effortless to get rid of such a little demon." ”
"Get rid of Xiao Rou, naturally it is effortless." Shen Xingyue tugged at the corners of her lips: "But I can't do anything with such a little monster, what I want you to do naturally has other purposes." It is absolutely not harmful, and it is also within your ability, so you should not refuse. ”
"Naturally not." Situ Hao is really not a person who keeps his promises, but in the face of Shen Xingyue, he is unwilling to go back on his word, so he immediately said: "I'll go now, don't worry, it won't hurt your business." ”
For people like Situ Hao, Shen Xingyue is still very relieved, although his heart may not be right, but he can endure it ruthlessly, and he is a person who does things.
Relieved to call Situ Hao to make it bad, Shen Xingyue slowly shook to Qingyun Temple, this temple is nothing special, because the incense hidden in the mountains is also general, only a few monks guarded, and there is no demonic spirit, and there is no contact with the demons in the mountains.
Shen Xingyue walked around the Qingyun Temple from beginning to end, and asked the monks in the temple to help find a few strong men who lived in the surrounding area, made a simple sedan chair, and went to Xiaorou's house in a mighty group of five people.
Situ Hao did things very well, and when Shen Xingyue took people there, the original hut was gone, and only a mess remained.
There were obvious traces of fire on the ground, the stone wall was black, and there were sawdust scattered on the ground, Shen Xingyue's face changed suddenly, and even the few men who followed him were a little panicked.
"Childe, what's going on?" Someone said: "Didn't you say, come and pick up a girl, this, there was a fire here just now?" ”
Shen Xingyue was silent for a moment, and said with a calm face: "They said that they have lived here for decades, and they don't catch fire early or late, but at this time, they are on fire, shouldn't they run away with my money?" I saw that the old lady was pitiful that her daughter was about to be unable to stay by her side, and she gave a thousand taels of silver, and I don't know if she had other thoughts, after all, with a thousand taels of silver, where can she live a good life, maybe she regrets not wanting to ask her daughter to be a concubine. ”
This speculation is reasonable, several big men looked at each other, and smacked their tongues: "Son, you are too generous, so you have to take someone and give you money." One thousand taels of silver, who can't be moved when they see it, what can they do if they are empty now, or hurry up and report to the official, they are old and injured, and they should not be able to go far, stop them. ”
Shen Xingyue groaned for a while and said: "I don't care about a thousand taels of silver, and I don't care about a woman, but I can't just be tricked like this, I can't swallow this breath." You're right, they have old people and injured people, they must not be able to leave, they must be hiding in this vicinity, the large and small caves and bushes here, maybe they are hiding in some cave, just waiting for me to leave and come out, isn't there such a saying, the most dangerous place is the safest. ”
"What then?" The man said: "There are hundreds of holes on this mountain wall, and it is impossible for a few of us to find them one by one......"
"No need to look for it, I naturally have a way to force them out." Shen Xingyue said with a gloomy face: "Today's wind is blowing towards the mountain wall, we light a fire under the mountain and smoke them out. ”
Several men felt that this was too ruthless, what should they do if they made a fuss, but when Shen Xingyue took a few ingots of silver and came out, all the problems were not a problem, and they began to roll up their sleeves and pick up firewood to chop branches, there are a lot of dead trees on this mountain, and they are all men who are used to chopping firewood and splitting trees in the mountain forest, and after a while, they put a row of branches along the mountain wall.
Shen Xingyue took out the fire fold from her arms, looked up at the cave, brushed it and threw the fire fold into it, all of them were dead branches and sprinkled with flammable powder, and the fire ignited all of a sudden, hula and burned into pieces.
