Chapter 13: Tribute
The owner of Wushan Cottage is also the master of the ten ghosts of Wushan, who is sitting in the main hall with a golden sword, and several masters are sitting on both sides.
"Fourth, how is the preparation of the tribute?"
The master of the Wushan cottage looked at the four masters and asked.
The ghost of the fourth master was dressed in white and holding a folding fan in his hand, like a well-mannered scholar, smiled slightly at this moment, and said, "Big brother, don't worry, this month's tribute has been prepared." ”
"Mother's messenger is almost here, isn't it?"
The second master of the hungry ghost asked.
The owner of Wushan Cottage nodded and said, "Look at the time, it should be almost over, tell me to go down, and bring up the wine and food." “
"Okay!"
The ninth master responded to the peace, ordered his subordinates, and began to walk the dishes.
It didn't take long for the servants of Wushanzhai to start serving plates of melon and fruit dishes one after another, and put pots of wine on the table.
Then the servants bowed their heads and retreated.
Four of them left the main hall, but did not go far, looked at each other, hid near the main hall, and listened with their ears pricked.
At this moment, the night is getting darker, and the four of them are hidden, and it is difficult to find unless they go to investigate.
"By the way, is there any news about the death of the sixth and seventh children?"
Ten masters said: "I went to Qingcheng County with the ninth brother to check, and it is said that there are four young men who recognize the identity of the sixth brother, sneak into the county guard's mansion, and assassinate the sixth brother." ”
"And the seventh brother died in a broken temple outside Qingcheng County, and the brothers he brought with him all died, and none of them were spared! Looking at the wounds, it is very likely that the four young men did it. ”
"Young man?"
The owner of Wushan Cottage frowned slightly, and said, "What is the reason, you can actually kill the sixth and seventh children?" ”
The ten masters coughed lightly and said, "The four of them are named Dugu Allure, Murong Haitang, Yuwen Black Dog, and the eldest grandson is amazing......"
"Humph!"
The owner of Wushan Cottage snorted coldly and said, "This is obviously a fake name. The younger generation of the four major clans actually got together and came to trouble our Wushan Cottage? How can it be! ”
The fourth master said: "Anyway, let the brothers be careful during this time, if you go out to do things, you need to go with the two masters and bring enough manpower." ”
"Hmm."
The owner of Wushan Cottage nodded and said, "Continue to track down the whereabouts of these four people, as long as they are still in the state, even if they dig three feet into the ground, they must find out for me!" ”
"Hehe, who made the owner of the village so angry?"
Just then, there was a chuckle outside.
Immediately afterwards, the group walked into the main hall, and the leader was wearing a gray Taoist robe, looking like a fairy wind and bones, holding the dust in one hand, and more than a dozen disciples were followed behind him.
"Master Xu Xuanshi is here, and he has already prepared a banquet below, so he is waiting for Master Xuan."
The owner of Wushan Cottage walked down from his seat quickly, and several masters got up at the same time and greeted him.
"The people of Xuantianguan?"
Chen Tang frowned slightly when he saw this Xu Xuanshi's outfit.
If it is said that Wushanzhai has some kind of relationship with Xuantian Temple, then it is not a coincidence that in Qingcheng County before, the Xuantian Temple Lord was the guarantor, saying that Qingcheng County was fine.
But Xuantianguan, how could it be related to Wushanzhai?
Chen Tang subconsciously glanced at Yuwen Black Dog.
The latter looked solemn and thoughtful.
In the main hall, after the Xu Xuanshi sat down, the owner of Wushan Cottage shook his head and said: "It's not a secret, the sixth and seventh children had an accident and were assassinated by four people of unknown origin!" ”
"Huh?"
Xu Xuanshi frowned slightly and asked, "Have you found out your identity?" ”
"Not yet."
The owner of Wushanzhai said: "I only know that these four people are not very old, three men and one woman, and they all use fake names." ”
"Is that so?"
Xu Xuanshi's face sank, he pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Is there a problem with next month's tribute?" ”
The owner of Wushan Cottage hurriedly said: "Master Xu Xuan, rest assured, the tribute of my mother has been prepared." ”
Outside the main hall.

Chen Tang and the four of them were confused.
Mother?
Tribute?
"Master Xu Xuan, since you are here, you have had dinner here, and it is not too late to leave overnight, stay in the cottage and be happy."
The owner of Wushan Cottage smiled meaningfully: "I still have two high-grade tributes for Xu Xuanshi, just waiting for Xu Xuanshi to try it!" ”
"Oh?"
Xu Xuanshi's eyes lit up.
But soon, he shook his head again and said, "Not tonight, the Lord asked me to go back early, I can't delay here, and I'll come back in a few days." ”
"It's fine."
The owner of Wushanzhai said with a smile: "Master Xuan, don't worry, I will keep those two tributes for Master Xuan." ”
"Well said."
Xu Xuanshi got up and said, "Take the tribute down the mountain, I'll go back as soon as possible." ”
"Finish this drink."
The owner of Wushanzhai picked up the full wine glass, wanting to keep Master Xu Xuanshi.
"I won't eat the wine."
Xu Xuanshi waved his hand and said, "Regarding the news of the six masters and the seven masters, I also have to tell the master as soon as possible." ”
Outside the main hall, Chen Tang and the four of them secretly frowned when they heard this.
This table of wine and food was poisoned by Dugu Allure.
But Xu Xuanshi was in a hurry to leave, and several masters in the hall didn't seem to move their chopsticks, but sent them out directly.
At this moment, several Wushanzhai brothers came panting from not far away, looking panicked.
"Owner, it's not good!"
One of them gasped and said, "The brother below just ate the wine and poured a large slice, and it seems that someone has drugged the wine!" ”
"Huh?"
The face of the owner of the Wushan cottage changed greatly.
At this moment, in the main hall, the hungry ghost of the second master and the drunkard of the eighth master who fell at the back shook their figures.
Staggered, and didn't take a few steps, the eyes of the two masters froze, their faces were purple, and a wisp of black blood overflowed from the corner of their mouths, and they fell to the ground with a plop.
Hungry ghosts are greedy for food, and drunkards are greedy for wine.
Although Xu Xuanshi didn't eat wine and food, the two of them were not idle just now, and secretly ate several mouthfuls of wine and food, so they went out last.
Unexpectedly, just greedy for these few mouthfuls of wine and food, it cost the lives of the two of them!
The drinks and dishes outside, Dugu Allure was worried that he would accidentally injure the innocent girl who was robbed by the cottage, and he didn't use the deadly poison, but just took some sweat medicine.
And the wine and food in the hall, all she uses are highly poisonous!
"Second brother, starling!"
The Ten Masters exclaimed.
When the owner of Wushan Cottage looked back and saw this scene, his face was ugly, and he couldn't help but feel cold all over his body, and he felt afraid for a while.
That Xu Xuanshi was also shocked into a cold sweat.
If it weren't for the accident, he was in a hurry to leave today, and I am afraid that he would have died in the hall in a daze!
Chen Tang and the four of them glanced at each other.
Although they failed to poison more people, the matter was revealed, and they couldn't hide for long.
If the strength of the sweat medicine had passed, most of the bandits in the cottage would wake up, and the four of them would have to face nearly a thousand thieves.
At that time, it will be even more dangerous!
The four of them have already had a tacit understanding during this time, and they glanced at each other, and without saying more, they shot at the same time!
Chen Tang, Dugu Allure, and the eldest grandson were amazingly three people rushed out!
Yuwen Black Dog waved his hand for the first time, and several golden needles shot towards Xu Xuanshi!
