Before nightfall, Xu Shuo ended his last skill teaching in the Thieves' Village.

"Okay, that's all for today, I'm leaving tomorrow, I'll teach you the skills in the past few days, and you will have to practice more in the future," Xu Shuo said to the little ghosts who learned the skills from him: "When you can release these skills without thinking, you can be regarded as truly learning these skills, and at that time, you will be the best among your peers, and you will no longer be easily bullied." ”

Although the little ghosts had already heard that Xu Shuo was leaving, they were still reluctant to see him say this.

"Brother Xu, are you really leaving tomorrow? Can't you stay longer? Malt tried to stay, "We want to learn more skills from you!" ”

"Yes, Brother Xu, teach us more, we can't learn enough!" Xiao Tian also said.

Xu Shuo smiled bitterly and said embarrassedly: "I also want to teach you more, but I have been here for too long, and I have other things to do." And as you know, River City can only be entered on Thursdays, and if you stay, you will have to wait another week. So, sorry! ”

"Then stay one more week!" Baozi suggested dryly.

"yes, yes, stay another week!" Others chimed in.

Facing the pleading gazes of the crowd, Xu Shuo looked embarrassed: "Well, I know you want to learn more, but I really ......"

"Don't make trouble, didn't you hear Brother Xu say that he has something to do? Brother Xu has already helped our village a lot, and we shouldn't trouble him anymore. Toshio stood up and said something fair.

The second-in-command is the second-in-command, as soon as Junxiong spoke, the little ghosts lowered their heads one after another, and Xu Shuo was able to break the siege and cast a grateful gaze at Junxiong.

Unexpectedly, Junxiong came up and whispered to Xu Shuo: "No thanks, in return, teach me another trick after dinner today." ”

Xu Shuo's gaze instantly changed from gratitude to disdain, "You guy......"

"Okay, okay, Brother Xu, let's go," Junxiong didn't wait for Xu Shuo to refuse, laughed and grabbed his shoulders and walked towards the big house: "Bai Yu said that he would hold a farewell banquet for you, let's eat barbecue and pancakes tonight!" ”

As Toshio said, dinner was a variety of barbecued meats: venison, birds, chicken, etc., all of which were hunted and stored in the warehouse by Beru before, in short, some soft meat, and there was no meat of the stone armor in it, so everyone ate to their contentment. Of course, there are no high-quality seasonings, but the salt brought by Mrs. Pia when she came at noon makes the barbecue taste very delicious.

The pancakes are made of flour from Mrs. Pia, and Lina's craftsmanship is very good, and the pancakes are thin and crispy, fragrant and delicious. In addition, there is a pot of wild vegetable soup, but this soup tastes the same as usual, so there is nothing to say.

Halfway through the meal, Junxiong went out for a trip, and when he came back, he mysteriously carried a jar and sat down next to Xu Shuo.

"This," Junxiong patted the bulging jar in his hand and whispered to Xu Shuo, "This is the best bamboo wine I brought back from the city before." As he spoke, he turned his head, and after confirming that Bai Yu didn't look at this side, he opened the lid of the wine jar, "Usually I don't want to drink, but since tonight is your farewell banquet, I'll have a few drinks with you and pour your wild vegetable soup." ”

"Wine, ......" Xu Shuo glanced at the green and faint wine in the jar, and was a little interested. He is not a person who likes to drink, or he has never drunk much alcohol at all, for wine, Xu Shuo has always felt that it tastes inferior to fruit juice, and drinking too much will make people dizzy, I can't understand why so many people like to drink.

Lilian, who was on the side, was attracted and poked her head over with interest.

"Bamboo sake? The first time I heard of this sake, can I try it? ”

Xu Shuo glanced at Lilian, remembering that this little girl had drunk and broken into his room when she was in Wink Manor before, it seemed that Liliane liked to drink, but it would be a little uncontrollable when she was drunk.

"Oh? Does Sister Liliam want to drink too, let's drink together and give me your bowl. Toshio held out his hand to Lilian.

Lilian gulped down the wild vegetable soup and handed the bowl to Toshio.

Toshio poured a full bowl for Lilian, then turned his gaze to Xu Shuo again, and held the jar as a matter of course, urging Xu Shuo to empty the bowl with his eyes???. 81??.?? M

Xu Shuo hesitated for a moment, thinking that it would be good to have a sense of ritual on such a day, so he simply drank up the soup and showed the empty bowl. However, he still whispered: "Less, half a bowl is fine." ”

Junxiong poured Xu Shuo most of the bowl, and then filled it for himself.

"Alright, let's have a toast!"

As soon as the three of them lifted the bowl, they suddenly heard Bai Yu's cough - not his usual cough, but a dry cough.

"Ahem!"

Junxiong's arm shook, the wine spilled a little, his neck twisted stiffly, and he saw Bai Yu staring at him coldly.

"Well, this," Toshio said with a dry laugh, trying to quibble, "We're toasting with wild vegetable soup!" ”

Bai Yu raised his chin, "Then what is the altar next to you?" ”

"Ah, this, this, this......"

Toshio was in a cold sweat, and the bun came out of nowhere, and he shouted to expose Toshio.

"Oh, no wonder I said how to smell wine, is this the jar we bought in the city before, Brother Junxiong, why don't you call us when you drink, it's really too much, didn't you say that you had the opportunity to drink together?!"

Toshio slowly turned his head and looked at Baozi with an expression of "Are you crazy?"

Baozi was stunned for a moment, then covered his mouth in hindsight, and craned his neck to look at Bai Yu, who was sitting in the seat of the owner of the big house.

Bai Yupi looked at them with a smile, "I see, you bought a jar of wine in the city." ”

As soon as Bai Yu's words came out, everyone's eyes gathered on Junxiong and the others.

"Uh, this, that......" Toshio blushed, trying to defend himself but didn't know where to start.

Everyone in the hunting group knew that most of the money to buy wine was earned by Toshio boxing, but in the eyes of those who didn't know, this was the money that everyone sold in the city to make handicrafts to buy wine, which was referred to as embezzlement.

At the tense moment, I don't know which nervous little ghost shouted: "Got wine?" I'm going to drink it too! ”

This sentence seems to bring a certain atmosphere, and many imps have come over with bowls, shouting "I want it too" - drinking is a very big thing, and immature imps like to pretend to be adults, so whether they have drunk or not, they want to get together and get a piece of the pie.

Toshio saw that everyone was rushing to drink, and hurriedly protected the wine under him, "Wait, wait a minute, you guys, this is only one jar of wine, where can you divide it like this!" Anyway, do you know how to drink it?! ”

"It's going to be a meeting!"

"Taste it!"

The imps yelled.

"What's the matter," Bai Yu spoke, "Anyway, it's a wine bought with everyone's money, so everyone who wants to drink it should take a sip." I want it too. ”

Junxiong glanced at Bai Yu embarrassedly, since Bai Yu said so, he couldn't help refusing, so he had to pour a mouthful into each bowl.

After Bai Yu got the wine, he raised the bowl, and then said in a rare sonorous voice: "Okay, don't rush to drink, Brother Xu, Sister Lilian, and Sister Miao Zhen will leave tomorrow, let us toast them, and wish them a smooth journey, safe and healthy!" ”

When all the little ghosts heard this, they followed suit and raised their bowls towards Xu Shuo and the others.

Xu Shuo said "thank you" and raised the bowl with a smile.

Lilian was very moved, she stood up excitedly, and replied to everyone: "Thank you, and I wish you peace and health, I hope you can have a better life in the future, there will be no more hunger and cold, and everyone can become a big man in his own right!" ”

After speaking, everyone held bowls and drank the wine.

Bamboo cold wine is sour and astringent, with a little sweetness and a little rancid.

Xu Shuo put down the bowl and smashed his mouth.

He still didn't get used to drinking, but he liked Lilian's greetings.

(Hopefully, they'll be better off when we're gone.) ）

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
