"Whew!"

Looking at this unrecognizable face, Li An exhaled a breath of turbidity in a complicated mood and covered it with a white cloth.

Turning his head to look at the fourth sister-in-law who was held in Du Xiaoyue's arms, Li An opened his mouth but didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only nod at Du Xiaoyue and let her watch first.

"Second uncle!"

Walking to the second uncle, Li An glanced at Xiaobao, who didn't understand anything, and was happily gnawing on maltose, touched the little guy's head, and called the second uncle, who was still sad.

Du Yuan's expression was in a trance, he looked up at Li An, his eyes were slightly red, and he said with guilt: "Originally, he was supposed to rest yesterday, but I sent him to investigate the matter of your second uncle, and the result was ......."

The sad appearance of the second uncle made Li Anxin feel uncomfortable for a while.

The fourth brother and the second uncle have been apprentices for so many years and have established a very strong relationship.

In addition, the fourth brother died because of the second uncle's order, and the second uncle Du Yuan's heart must be full of guilt and grief.

Sighing, Li An got up and picked up Xiaobao and handed it to a servant next to him.

"Second uncle, none of us want to see this matter, the top priority, we are not here to grieve and cry, but to avenge the fourth brother and them, let them look blind."

In fact, there is no need for Li An's persuasion, Du Yuan also understands that there are all people, and it is useless to be sad at this time, what he has to do now is to find the murderer, avenge his apprentice, and let him be blind under Jiuquan.

He took a deep breath and rubbed his face vigorously.

got up and said hello, and a few catchers who were squatting on the side, Du Yuan called out to Li An and walked into the class room.

"Xiaosi's revenge, we can't help but revenge, I originally wanted to go in person, but in the morning, the county magistrate told me that the people from Fucheng would arrive at noon, and most of us had to wait for Fucheng's order, and it was impossible to send too many people over.

So I'm going to draw a team of ten people to deal with this matter, and I hereby promise that whoever can kill that monster, I will let him take the place of Xiao Si, and the other people who will help, I will give 20 taels each. ”

After speaking, Du Yuan looked at a few catchers.

"That's what I think, is there anything else you would like to add?"

A few catchers glanced at each other and shook their heads, and the eldest Lao Yu said: "The officials have little experience in handling cases and don't have much combat experience, so I'll go with them, and take care of anything else." ”

The second uncle glanced at Lao Yu with a deep taste, and probably guessed what the other party was thinking, but he didn't say anything, nodded slightly, and agreed.

The youngest orange in the meeting hesitated for a moment and said: "After all, there is a danger to life in going to revenge, I am worried that the brothers below are afraid of losing their lives and dare not go, what if no one is willing to go at that time?" Do you want to pick directly? ”

It's a real thing.

In a group of fast arresters, the fourth brother, as Du Yuan's apprentice, is in the forefront of martial arts.

Masters like Xiaosi are all planted inside, and those with average strength are gone, and it is estimated that they will also die.

Orange was worried that the officials would take this into account and would not sign up.

"Let's see how many people sign up! If no one signs up, then wait for the people in Fucheng to leave, and then I will lead the team. ”

Li An, who was standing aside and listening to the discussion of several people, waited for a few people to finish speaking, and then stepped forward and said to Du Yuan: "Second uncle, count me as one." ”

The second uncle looked back at Li An, saw that his eyes were firm, and thought that Li An had also practiced martial arts with him since he was a child, and his strength was much stronger than that of the fourth junior.

If Ang Lee was lucky enough to kill the monster this time, he would have promoted Ang Lee to a fast catcher, which would be justified.

"Okay, count you in!"

"Old Yu, go and ask who wants to go? If the people are gathered, they should set off as soon as possible to prepare in advance, and the others will go back to make arrangements and wait for the arrival of the people who welcome the city. ”

"Yes!"

After a few catchers left, Du Yuan closed the door and whispered to Li An: "This matter is not simple, it is likely to be caused by demons, when the time comes, you should be smart, if the situation is not right, run away immediately, especially Lao Yu, he and I are not of the same heart, you must be careful of him." ”

Hearing the second uncle's reminder, Li An's eyes narrowed slightly.

Old Yu, I hope you can be smarter, otherwise, you may die in the line of duty.

Outside the door, Lao Yu told the officials about the matter, focusing on the rewards he received after completing the task.

At first, everyone was a little hesitant, worried that they would not be able to kill the monster and throw their lives into it.

But what kind of person is Lao Yu, but he is faster than the old man who has been mixed with the second uncle for a long time.

This time he finally had the opportunity to lead the team alone, how could he give up so easily.

He'd heard about it.

Du Yuan may be transferred soon, if he can complete the task beautifully this time, after Du Yuan leaves, the position of chief catcher will not be his own.

In order to get this credit, fortunately, in the future, he will compete for the position of chief catcher, and Lao Yu will naturally not let go of this opportunity.

Next, after some encouragement and agitation by Lao Yu, seven or eight young officials who couldn't stand the agitation stood up

The danger to their lives has been left behind them.

As the old man said about temptation.

Just in case you're lucky enough to kill the monster.

Then you can be directly promoted from an ordinary small official to a well-organized catcher.

Then take a tael of silver every month, marry a beautiful girl, and live a small life at the peak of life.

Thinking about the days of fantasy in my mind, it is called a beautiful one.

Soon the revenge team was selected.

Du Yuan asked the fourth brother's son Xiaobao to kowtow to everyone, and then took everyone to the treasury to get weapons and equipment, and under the guidance of Father Li An, he went to Taoyuan Village.

………………

"Dad, I'll send you back first, it's going to be a fight in a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you."

Late at night, in a wooden house in the peach forest in the mountain behind Taoyuan Village.

Li An looked at the father sitting beside him, holding a flat pole, and once again persuaded the other party to go back.

Li An and his entourage rushed to Taoyuan Village in the afternoon and had a simple dinner.

Under Lao Yu's arrangement, a group of three patrolled around the orchard where the fourth brother and the three died, looking for the monster who didn't know if it was a monster or a beast.

For this arrangement, the more Ang Lee watches it, the more it looks like the rhythm of a horror movie.

After Lao Yu finished assigning it, Li Ang suggested that Lao Yu should be in a group of five or six people, or everyone would gather together, so that if something happens, he could take precautions in time.

As a result, it was blocked by the old saying, if there are too many people, the monster may be scared and not come.

Even in the end, Lao Yu kindly let Li An rest alone, and then come out to help when the monster appeared.

Obviously, it was a deliberate attempt to alienate Ang Lee.

"What am I going back for? Are you left here alone to die? ”

Dad snorted angrily, and then said a lesson: "You too, everyone has arranged it, what are you talking about." That is, the other party looks at your second uncle's face and doesn't care about you, if it was replaced by other officials, I guess I would have slapped it a long time ago. ”

Li Ang didn't refute his father's reprimand, but just held the horizontal knife prepared for him by his second uncle, and looked at the fire in front of him boredly.

Maybe I haven't seen my son for a long time, but my father didn't stop talking at the beginning.

After a while, I will talk about the east family, the west family is short, and then I will talk about whose son married a daughter-in-law and gave birth to a big fat boy.

The meaning of the words is to imply that Ang Li should hurry up and marry Du Xiaoyue, and he is waiting to hold his grandson.

After listening to it for a while, Li An, who felt a little annoyed, got up and said a word about going to the hut, and walked out of the wooden house.

"Alas, this kid can't talk about it when he's older."

Looking at the closed wooden door, Dad shook his head, took a gourd from his waist, and drank a little wine.

Li An, who came out of the wooden house, glanced at the torches patrolling not far away, and began to put water in a random place.

As the water gushed out, Li An exhaled comfortably, and his eyes closed slightly.

"The afterlife... Afterlife......"

A soft call suddenly sounded in his ears, and Li Anxin, who was releasing water, tightened, and the crazy turbulent water immediately stopped.

Slowly reaching out and grabbing the handle of the knife pinned to his waist, Li An turned his head and looked vigilantly at the place where the sound came from.

Li An turned his head and saw at a glance under a peach tree not far away.

A guy with a coat on his body, a hat on his head, and a fluffy silver tail behind his back, wagging around, was carrying Li An on his back, and bowed to three officials patrolling with torches.
