Chapter 007 Idle to kill demons and eliminate harm, by chance to find a job

The thatched house where Chen Chunfeng lived was in the southwest corner of the courtyard, and there was nothing to do all night, and the next morning, Chen Chunfeng was sleeping again, and when he was half awake and half asleep, he heard the noise of people on the street outside.

Chen Chunfeng slept soundly at this time, and he didn't care, he slept until almost noon.

Chen Chunfeng stretched his waist and stretched his body, and then put on his shoes and went to the ground.

Chen Chunfeng said: "The shopkeeper has something to eat." ”

The old man leaned over and asked, "Guest officer, do you want to eat noodles?" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "Okay! ”

The shopkeeper said, "Wait a minute. ”

The old man came out of the house and said, "The old woman will make a bowl of noodles for this little man." ”

The old woman said, "Okay! ”

Chen Chunfeng went to the yard to wash a handful of clothes, and washed his dirty clothes by the way.

After a while, there was a burst of the smell of fried green onions from the kitchen, and after a while, the shopkeeper brought a bowl of knife-cut noodles. There are also two poached eggs lying on top of the noodles. The eggs are fried golden brown and look delicious.

Chen Chunfeng picked up an egg with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and took a bite, which was just right salty.

Took another bite of noodles. After chewing a few bites and swallowing, the noodles are also strong.

Chen Chunfeng said: "What's going on in the morning? Messy and coaxing. ”

The old man said, "Morning! Don't mention it, it's too miserable. Affects your eating. ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "What's wrong? It doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Old man, alas! sighed, and said with a long breath: "Hua Leather Shop, a family, more than a dozen people have been gouged out by monsters. The cobbler's grandson was only three years old and disappeared, presumably a monster swept away. ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "How many leathermen do you have? ”

The old man said: "We are the old Hua family's leather shop, a leather business. ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "Have you reported to the official? ”

The old man said: "I have reported it, and someone from the yamen has seen it and made a record." The old man shook his head and sighed, and went about his own business.

Chen Chunfeng said in his heart: Since this matter has happened to me, I can't ignore it.

After eating a bowl of noodles, Chen Chunfeng returned to his room, he tidied up his clothes, took the ring head knife, pinched a stealth method, and walked out of the inn, along a path out of the village, to the earthen hill in the northwest of the village.

At noon, it was the time of sleepiness, and although he was hidden, he still left the village very carefully.

Chen Chunfeng found a series of footprints at the entrance of the village, and he couldn't tell whether it was a dog or a fox, and followed this series of footprints to the earthen hill in the northwest of the village.

Walking up to him, Chen Chunfeng was taken aback, the grass downhill was full of animal bones, and he had even seen the skeletons of several people.

There is a dirt pit halfway up the slope, and there is a dirt hole in the pit. There was a commotion, and Chen Chunfeng almost dispersed his stealth method.

This hole is three feet in size, there is a child's corpse outside the hole, several juvenile foxes, are biting, maybe these foxes are still small, there is not much bite force, a few little foxes drag the child's body around, there is a big fox lying at the mouth of the hole, the hair on the body is yellow, some places have turned white, it seems that the age is not young, the weather is hot this big fox is napping there.

Chen Chunfeng saw a few foxes dragging the child's corpse around, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled out the ring head knife and swept left and right, and after a few muffled sounds, he was biting the child, and several fox cubs were killed by Chen Chunfeng.

The big fox, hearing the abnormal sound, lazily opened its eyes, yawned, and before it could see the situation in front of it, with a muffled snort, a fox head the size of a watermelon fell to the ground, blood flowed out of the fox's neck, and its body twitched on the ground.

Hearing the movement, three yellow foxes came out of the hole, these three foxes were similar in size to the one outside the bun shop yesterday, and the three foxes came out and looked at the corpses of the dead old foxes, and then looked at the corpses of several fox cubs not far away, and looked around vigilantly.

A fox close to Chen Chunfeng, stretched out his nose to test the breath in the wind, and slowly his neck stretched out to Chen Chunfeng's knife, Chen Chunfeng's heart beat wildly, his hands trembled a little, after all, it was the first time to kill, Chen Chunfeng gritted his teeth and said, no wonder I am very guilty. Chen Chunfeng took advantage of the momentum and pushed it, and the ring head knife wiped the neck of the fox in front of him, and the fox's head fell to the ground.

The other two foxes turned their heads and saw their companion's head falling out of thin air, they were stunned on the spot, Chen Chunfeng's body turned behind a fox, his hand raised his knife, and cut off the fox's head.

The other fox saw his companion's head falling, and he didn't know what was going on, and his heart was afraid and slowly retreated, and Chen Chunfeng saw fear in his eyes.

Chen Chunfeng was also very decisive, flew the knife in his hand, and nailed the fox in front of him to the ground, and suddenly the fox let out a scream, struggling to flutter twice and not moving.

Hearing the shout, under a few trees in the distance, three whirlwinds suddenly blew and moved quickly in this direction.

Chen Chunfeng walked to the front of the ring head knife and pulled out his weapon, fearing that it would not die and mended a knife on this fox. In the distance, three cyclones are getting closer. After Chen Chunfeng saw it, he was also ready to fight. The three whirlwinds reached the mouth of the fox cave in a few breaths, and the whirlwind stopped revealing a white-haired fox seven or eight feet long, and two foxes that were the same as the one that had been killed by the crowd yesterday.

The three foxes came to the entrance of the cave and saw that on the ground, several dead foxes were still bleeding outside, and the old fox headed by the leader looked around vigilantly, and the other two foxes went around, smelling this and arching that, which meant that they wanted to get up the dead foxes. The head has fallen off and can still get up, obviously these foxes are not very intelligent.

Chen Chunfeng's feet did not touch the ground, stealthily flew to the top of the old fox and slashed down, the old fox felt that something was wrong, his body pulled back, Chen Chunfeng's knife missed, the old fox dodged a knife with his own feelings, but it didn't see anyone in front of him, it didn't know why he wanted to hide, the next moment the old fox's head and body were separated, blood splashed out of it, more than a zhang away, the fox rolled twice on the ground, its eyes stared directly at the place where Chen Chunfeng was standing, as if it could see Chen Chunfeng.

Chen Chunfeng looked at his body and didn't show it, so he was relieved.

The other two saw this situation, and ran to both sides, where did they run Chen Chunfeng flew fast, Chen Chunfeng instantly caught up with one, after killing with a knife in his hand, he turned around and went to chase the other, at this time the other ran out more than ten zhang away, Chen Chunfeng was not in a hurry, pinched the trick and chanted a spell, and the golden light spread out vertically, and in an instant, he cut off its head with a knife behind the fox.

Chen Chunfeng took the spell and showed his figure, and took a few breaths, this vertical golden light was really consuming mana. Chen Chunfeng rested for a while, wiped the blood from the knife on the fox in front of him, and inserted it back into the scabbard.

Slowly walked back down the fox hole.

I wanted to drill into the fox hole to take a look, but the fox hole was dirty and smelly, Chen Chunfeng used his divine eyes, this magic spell, practiced to the extreme, he could peep into the Three Realms, and at this time Chen Chunfeng just used it to see the fox hole in front of him.

Chen Chunfeng looked into the fox hole, which was more than three feet deep, and there was a small pile of hay and a few clothes in it, but he didn't find the fox.

Chen Chunfeng was sure that there were no foxes hiding in the fox hole, so he took the spell and turned around and walked to the child's corpse.

The child's body was full of scratches and bite marks, Chen Chunfeng reached out and grabbed the child's body and walked towards the village.

Walking and walking, the corpse of the child in his hand suddenly coughed a few times, Chen Chunfeng hurriedly put him on the ground, tried it with his hands, confirmed it, the child was really still breathing, and found that the child was still alive Chen Chunfeng hurriedly ran to the village with both hands holding him.

At this time, there were exactly two tolerances under the big tree at the entrance of the village, they were probably sleepy and napping in the shade of the tree after lunch, Chen Chunfeng walked two steps to the two tolerances and said, "Wake up, adults." ”

The old man opened his eyes and saw Chen Chunfeng holding a child covered in injuries in his hand, and he immediately came to his senses. He raised his foot and kicked the young man next to him and said, "Don't sleep." Wake up. ”

The old man asked Chen Chunfeng and said, "What's going on?" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "I killed a few demon foxes that have become climates on the soil hill in the northwest, and saved this child, you can take him to the hospital quickly." The messenger took the child handed over by Chen Chunfeng, and said to the companion beside him: "You go back to report the news, and I will take this child to the hospital." ”

He said to Chen Chunfeng again: "Don't go there, just wait here." ”

Chen Chunfeng looked at the scorching sun and said, "I'll live in the inn in the village, come to the inn to find me!" ”

The man said, "Then you can go back to the inn first." ”

Chen Chunfeng returned to the inn, and the old man said, "Didn't you sleep in your room?" How did you get out? ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "It's a little stuffy, so go out for a walk. ”

The old man said, "The weather is a little muggy, probably about to rain." Chen Chunfeng echoed and went back to the room.

More than an hour later, the messenger came to the inn to find Chen Chunfeng, saying that the county lieutenant was going to ask him for questioning, and Chen Chunfeng followed the young officer and came to the entrance of the village.

The county lieutenant, who was in his fifties, was sitting in the shade of a tree at the entrance of the village and walked up to him.

The tolerance said: "Hurry up and meet the county lieutenant Zhao." ”

Chen Chunfeng bowed to the end and said, "Xiaomin see Lord Zhao." ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Pingshen, I have something to ask you." ”

Chen Chunfeng said, "My lord, please ask." ”

Zhao County Lieutenant said: "You saved the son of the Chinese leather worker?" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "It was the villain who saved it. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Tell me about it. ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "My lord, don't you go to the scene to see? The corpses of a few foxes are still on the mound! ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Okay! Let's talk as we go. The county lieutenant stood up and asked Chen Chunfeng to follow him to the northwest of the village.

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Tell me what happened!" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "This thing has to start from yesterday, yesterday I ate steamed buns in the bun shop, saw a whirlwind, everyone worshiped the great immortal together, and then the great immortal showed his true image, it turned out to be a yellow fox who stole chickens, the shopkeeper of the bun shop, smashed the fox with a rolling pin, and then everyone beat the fox to death, and in order to share the money, they sold the fox skin to the cobbler. Because I was a little tired after a few days of traveling, I didn't get up this morning, and slept until noon, and when I heard about this tragedy at lunch, I had the idea of eliminating harm for the people, and the house was tender and hot, so I wanted to come out and stay around, and I just walked to the edge of the village, and saw a row of fox footprints, and saw that this was it. ”

Chen Chunfeng said as he pointed to a string of fox footprints on the ground.

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "And then? ”

Chen Chunfeng continued: "Then I followed this footprint all the way up to the mound, and killed two old foxes, five and a half foxes, and a few fox cubs that were gnawing on children. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Is this the knife you use?" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "It is this knife. The county lieutenant stretched out his hand to see Chen Chunfeng's knife, and Chen Chunfeng handed the knife over willingly.

Chen Chunfeng also said in his mouth: "My lord, you hold it steady, the knife is sinking." ”

County Lieutenant Zhao didn't think so, took it with one hand, and after taking it, he changed it to holding it with two hands, and glanced at Chen Chunfeng. County Lieutenant Zhao took the knife out of the scabbard, looked at it in front of his eyes, and said, "It's really a good knife." Then he inserted the knife back into the scabbard and returned it to Chen Chunfeng. The group walked to the edge of the mound.

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Where is the fox? ”

Chen Chunfeng said, "Follow me." Chen Chunfeng led the way, and the group went to Tugang.

Chen Chunfeng said: "It's over there, it's almost there." Came to the fox's den. After some inspection, the officer made a report to the county lieutenant, and the officer said: "There are thirteen fox corpses of all sizes, seven large ones, five cubs, and the scars on the children's bodies are caused by the fox cubs. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Is there anything else to discover?" ”

The officer said, "Some minced meat was found in the belly of the great male fox, like a human heart. This male fox is most likely the murderer of the Chinese leatherman's family. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao nodded and said, "Send someone to search the fox hole, don't leave any hidden dangers." "One of the servants chose a thin man and went into the fox hole with a torch.

A quarter of an hour later, the errand officer who entered the cave came out, carrying a package in his hand, and a few pieces of clothes, Chen Chunfeng saw very clearly that this package was hidden in the pile of hay, and he didn't find it when he checked it, the county lieutenant asked people to open the package to check, there were a few monk's clothes, and hundreds of copper coins, and a Buddhist scripture.

The prefectural order said: "Take these foxes away, and when they are buried in the family of the Chinese cobbler, they will be burned in front of the grave to rest the dead." ”

The injured child will be temporarily fostered in the infirmary, and will be apprenticed in the infirmary in the future, and his family's property will be taught to the elders of his clan to take care of, and will be returned to him in the future. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao asked Chen Chunfeng again: "The little righteous man is really a hero and a young man to eliminate harm for the people. How about staying with us and being an official? ”

Chen Chunfeng thought to himself: When I came to this world, I didn't have a decent job, this is a job sent to the door, so it's better to agree first, and then say, if you are not happy, just quit.

Chen Chunfeng made up his mind in his heart, and said, "My lord wants me to be an official? ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Your martial arts are good, it just so happens that I have just taken office, and my subordinates are lacking talents like you." "As a time-traveler, when looking for a job, of course, you have to ask about the salary.

Chen Chunfeng said: "How much is an adult a month? ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Seven yuan per month, plus eight hundred yuan." ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "What are my responsibilities? ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Your duty is to patrol the town every day, and don't let those rangers fight and make trouble." ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "Let me persuade some boring people!" ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "That's what it means. But you don't have to go to the county seat, your place of work is in Huanshui Town, fifty miles to the west. Where is there a pavilion chief named Zheng Ji, who brought an apprentice, you will work under him, and you will report tomorrow! I'll send someone to inform him. ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "Okay, I'll go tomorrow." ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "I don't know what your name is, where are you from?" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "My home is in the area of Jishi Mountain, and my name is Chen Chunfeng. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "Even if it is your first day on an errand today, your exploits in killing the fox demon will be recorded for you, and you will wait to receive the reward after I report it!" ”

Chen Chunfeng looked at the county lieutenant and said, "Thank you, for your kindness." ”

County Lieutenant Zhao leaned close to Chen Chunfeng and whispered: "Even if you are on an errand today, my brothers and I can still touch you a little light!" ”

Chen Chunfeng said: "Thank you, sir. ”

County Lieutenant Zhao said: "After killing so many demons, you are also tired, rest early!" ”

Chen Chunfeng said goodbye and returned to the inn.
