One person and one dog quickly returned to the garden, and this time Xiaohai walked directly to the main gate. When he was about to see the main gate, Xiao Hai saw a few people who were carrying the wicked people that Xiao Hai had killed in the forest, and after seeing Xiao Hai, he fled in all directions in fright.

Xiao Hai didn't bother with them, Xiao Hai thought to himself that the main evildoers had already been ambushed, and those who didn't matter as long as he didn't provoke him, he would naturally not kill them all.

When Xiao Hai was about to reach the door, he saw the figure of the master on the way from a distance, and the master motioned for him to come over.

Xiao Hai looked at the dog next to his feet, leaned down and touched its head and said, "I have to go, you can go back too, don't be so tricky in the future." With a good master, when the conditions are good, marry a and live in peace. ”

The dog didn't pay attention to him, opened his tongue and tilted his head and didn't look at Xiaohai. Xiao Hai gave him a gentle slap, then got up and walked towards the master.

But when he came to the master, the dog still followed. Xiao Hai looked at the master, and the master said, "Then take it, just eat it when you're hungry." When the dog heard this, he turned his head and ran away.

Xiao Hai looked happy in his heart, but he was reluctant for a while. The master turned his head and asked Xiao Hai: "After all, there are still people in the garden, and it is not appropriate for them to see it, let's go and spend the night in the woods far away." Will the body be able to hold on?"

Xiao Hai nodded and said, "Walk slowly, and don't run the mountain, Master." ”

The master touched Xiao Hai's head in a rare way and said, "Okay, let's go home next, we don't have to run during this time." Xiao Hai wanted to jump happily, but he held back the pain all over his body.

The master and apprentice walked nearly ten miles, and did not return to the town, but followed the official road in the direction of Wuyou Town.

Find a wooded area on the road. It was getting late, and the moon was already heavily tilted. The master and apprentice lit a fire, and the master took a set of clothes for Xiao Hai from his own package, the clothes on Xiao Hai's body were so torn, his back was almost exposed, and there was a big hole in his buttocks.

And there are still blood stains on the bare skin that have not dried, Xiao Hai really suffered a lot of injuries tonight, but the master knows that Xiao Hai's most serious injury is internal injury, Ji Da is overbearing in hard qigong, if it weren't for Xiao Hai's strong qi to protect his body, Xiao Hai would have been crippled by now. There are no conditions in the wild, so Xiaohai simply washed and changed into clean clothes by the river.

On the edge of the fire, I fell asleep without saying a few words to the master. The master stepped forward to cover him with a blanket, and wiped the unwashed dust on his forehead with distress. The master and apprentice were speechless. Xiao Hai slept until noon, and woke up hazy and in unbearable pain.

The master got some food and told Xiao Hai not to hurry up, let Xiao Hai heal his injuries first, and it can't be too late, for fear of sequelae. Xiao Hai ate something and then sat cross-legged, letting Gang Qi walk gently in his body.

This is the first time that Xiao Hai has run his Gang Qi so seriously after breaking through the third Gang Qi, but he is healing himself. Xiao Hai slowly let Gang Qi repair the damaged internal organs and meridians in his body. Three hours have passed, and Xiao Hai opened his eyes. Master saw Xiao Hai and said, "How is it, do you need my help?" Xiao Hai said: "No need Master, I can do it myself, just slow down, I estimate that it will take two or three more repairs to almost heal." "Master asked Xiaohai not to be in a hurry, the recovery of the injuries in the body was originally very slow, after all, it was a fundamental injury, even if it felt fine, we should rest for a while, let's heal the injuries while we are in a hurry." Xiao Hai nodded.

On the way, Xiaohai asked Master how Ji Changda was, and Master said, "Ji Changda, in the end, he didn't explain anything, but he finally threatened me that the world was going to change, let me wait and see." Then he committed suicide. ”

Xiao Hai was surprised: "What does it mean that the sky is going to change?"

Master said, "I'm not sure yet, but it should be related to the Valley of the Wicked, otherwise he wouldn't have taken such a big risk to find Monsoon." ”

Xiao Hai nodded, and then asked, "Master, where did Ji Feng and Ji Changfu go?"

Master smiled and said, "Ji Changfu has returned to Chongzhou to take over the Iron Law Gang in Chongzhou, and Ji Feng will find a suitable opportunity to join the Iron Law Gang." ”

Xiao Hai was even more different this time, and then said: "Master, are you letting Ji Changfu take over Ji Changfu, with Ji Changfu, it is not so unconscionable to do things, and as long as he is still here, it will be easier to investigate the Valley of the Wicked in the future?"

Master smiled and nodded and said: "That's the truth, I'm afraid that the matter of the Valley of the Wicked is not so simple, and the imperial court will not easily make the Valley of the Wicked Public, otherwise such an illegal place will be opposed by the people of the world." Some radicals in the imperial court will certainly not leave such an uneasy force to exist forever. Now that someone in the capital has released the news and started to fight the idea of the Valley of the Wicked, then we have to investigate and deal with the ins and outs, as long as the monsoon has been in Chongzhou, then the people who contacted Ji Dada before will presumably look for the monsoon again, and when the time comes, we will find out the truth in Shunteng. ”

Xiao Hai had a question: "But Master, how can you be sure that the Beijing Iron Law Gang will safely hand over the affairs of Yangzhou and Chongzhou to Ji Changfu?" Master smiled: "This is Ji Changfu's own package ticket, let me believe him, even if he is not successful, he is also a pawn in the Iron Law Gang, which is beneficial to us." That's why we didn't kill him, and why we didn't expose his betrayal. But how to eliminate the suspicion of the three family members of the Iron Law Gang depends on his ability. ”

Xiao Hai nodded and continued: "Master, you must have other plans, this plan is very passive, what if no one is looking for Monsoon, and Ji Changfu can't get in touch with the capital?"

Master smiled and said: "Of course, the initiative must be in our hands, and when I send you home, I will personally go to the Valley of the Wicked, where is the source, and there will definitely be clues." Xiaohai said, "Master, won't I follow?"

The master touched Xiao Hai's head and saw that the child in front of him had reached his chin and already had the appearance of an adult. said softly: "Xiaohai, you have more important things to do next year, when you get home, I will discuss it with your Aunt Jin to see if she agrees." ”

Xiao Hai smiled: "Master, you are really afraid of guilt!"

Master's face was black.

Xiao Hai continued to ask, "Master, why do you have to investigate the Valley of the Wicked? Is it because of the monsoon?"

The master said: "It's not just this, the teacher came out of the Valley of the Wicked, and if there is a move in the Valley of the Wicked in the future, then it will be difficult for the teacher to stay out of the matter." Xiaohai didn't continue to ask, and the master and apprentice continued to hurry.

The master and apprentice walked along the official road for half a month, stopping and stopping to let Xiaohai heal by the way, and the master said that he would not touch porcelain along the way, and he would go home with peace of mind and go home for reunion before the end of the year.

Of course, Xiaohai is very happy, and the master is not the only one who thinks about Aunt Jin. On this day, Xiaohai's master and apprentice were resting at an official post station more than fifty miles away from Yangzhou City, drinking tea. Suddenly, I saw a group of people gathered around the wall of the official notice, and a group of people were chattering there.

Xiao Hai curiously pulled the shopkeeper and asked, "Little second brother, what is written on the notice over there, so many people go to see it?"

Xiao Erle said happily: "Ouch, master, you came all the way from Yangzhou to the sea, I don't know that, the boss of the Iron Law Gang in Yangzhou City and Chongzhou City was killed, and the government is looking for a reward!"

Xiao Hai almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of water, Xiao Er looked stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Hai carefully, looking at the master next to him, Xiao Hai muttered to himself: "It's not like, it's too far away." Then he turned and walked away.

Xiao Hai hurriedly walked over to the crowd over there, and then squeezed in to see what was going on. It's good not to look at it, but when I saw that my jaw almost fell to the ground, the notice board read: "Recently, there are two Jiangyang thieves! Break into Chongzhou Fuju Garden, kill the owner of Fuju Garden and more than 40 people, and plunder countless money, the people of Chongzhou gather anger and sue in court, and hereby Chongzhou Mansion Yin Ling, a reward of 5,000 yuan is offered for arrest!" Nothing more than five feet tall and his name unknown, this double thief was full of evil and murderous, and the people must not act rashly when they saw it, and should immediately report it to the government officials. ”

Xiao Hai looked down at the two portraits, indeed a man and a woman, the portrait of the woman is very good-looking, but a white veil covers her face, and she can't see her face clearly, and the people next to her also praise that such a beautiful woman is a thief, which is a pity.

But what made Xiao Hai's jaw drop was the portrait of this man, all black, even covered with cloth, and the two eyes that leaked out, one large and one small. Except for the whites of the eyes, the others were deliberately blackened with a few strokes. Xiao Hai drooped his head and returned to the master's place.

The master laughed: "What's the matter? Not satisfied with your portrait? Do you want to go to the official mansion to prove that you still have some good looks?"

Xiao Hai immediately shook his head. At this time, the shopkeeper sent dried fruits, and as soon as he saw Xiao Hai go to see the excitement, he asked Xiao Hai: "Is this master also interested in the bounty order?" Xiao Hai quickly shook his head.

Xiao Er Yile, and then continued: "This is just a reward order from the government, do you know how much money the Iron Law Gang pays?"

Xiao Hai opened his mouth wide and looked at Xiao Er in surprise, how could they still have their own bounty order? Xiao Er saw that Xiao Hai didn't speak, and stretched out five fingers happily.

Xiao Hai said, "Fifty taels?" The master patted Xiao Hai's head and said, "How can these two people be worth five hundred taels, and fifty taels is too worthless." ”

Xiao Hai thought to himself that he was right, he was worth fifty taels, and it would be a shame to say it.

The shopkeeper smiled and said to the two of them: "You two really don't have much knowledge, it's five thousand taels!" One person, two people 10,000 taels!

This will be replaced by the two of them dropping their jaws together.

Xiao Er looked at the surprised two men and thought that it was really a hillbilly who didn't know anything, so he gave a contemptuous look and turned away.

Xiao Hai looked at the master, and the master also looked at Xiao Hai.

Xiao Hai spoke first and said, "Master, do you think it's appropriate for me to arrest that female thief and exchange it for money?"

Master said with a serious expression, "There are five thousand taels talking to me in front of me. Xiao Hai looked at the master with disdain: "Old man, don't make trouble, you still point to me to provide for your old age." ”

The master said solemnly, "With so much money, how many women can't buy it." ”

Xiaohai said, "I'll go back and tell you this as it is." ”

Master: "Look at you, this kid, you can't even make jokes, don't you say it's good to go home or you are secretly cultivating, it's really boring, no wonder Xiaoxiao said you." ”

Xiao Hai stood up all of a sudden, blushed and said loudly, "Old man Hong, how much do you know!"

Master laughed and didn't speak. Xiao Hai sat down angrily, and then asked the master: "Master is a little strange, there are so many miscellaneous servants in Fujuyuan, even if you don't see the appearance of me and that girl, the description is too general, and why doesn't the government mention the abduction and trafficking of those girls?"

Master said with a smile: "No matter how good the relationship between Chongzhou Mansion Yin and Ji Da is, it is impossible to tell the world about such a disgraceful thing. Otherwise, people with a little brain will ask why this male and female robbed so many women? Why are there so many women in Fujuyuan? It is very easy to think of chivalry and righteousness, so the case is directly characterized as killing people for money, and the government can also issue a notice. Presumably, the Chongzhou Mansion is also giving face to the Iron Law Gang. The portrait depicts that most of them don't believe that it is a child who can kill so many people. Xiao Hai nodded, and hurriedly seemed to make some sense.

The master and apprentice went all the way south, and the closer they were to Wuyou Town, the farther away Xiao Hai felt. For the first time, Xiao Hai felt that the journey home was so long, and he came out unconsciously for more than two years, experiencing many things, cultivating, and touching porcelain with his master.

The scars on his body are too big and small to count. After coming out for more than two years, Xiaohai has never felt so much about wanting to go home, the home is not as complicated as the outside world, where can he be a child with peace of mind.

The teenager travels for spring and autumn, and when does he walk in the snow to find plums? Going to Xi does not relieve the bitterness of leaving the garden, and it is difficult to say homesickness when returning.
