the only savior

Chapter 739
"what!"

As soon as the woman finished speaking, Li Qiang cried out in fright.

Pei Laoliu, on the other hand, looked pensive and repeated a few words of what she had said just now, then suddenly raised his head and asked:

"Ma'am, just now you said that your husband went hunting in the mountains, but he didn't know what he brought back?"

The woman replied:

"It's a nest of foxes. My husband also said that in recent years, nobles in the city like this kind of fur, especially foxes, minks and other animals. The price has increased by at least [-]%... Those hunters said that it is basically difficult to find foxes in the mountains now." Yes, he was lucky, he had this kind of harvest for the first time when he went out..."

When Pei Laoliu heard this, his face changed.

"Fox...fox! Oh! Your husband has offended a fox demon!"

"Fox demon?"

The woman was startled, and then a look of shock appeared on her face.

"Dao, why did the Taoist priest say that... Could it be that my husband's current appearance is all caused by that fox demon?"

Master Liu nodded with a serious expression, and said:

"Everything in the world has spirituality, and among them the yellow, white, willow and ashes are the most. As the saying goes, it is better to climb three mountains than to offend a family of immortals, that is to say, even if you take a detour to climb three more mountains, don't go Forcibly break into the territory of one of them! Your husband is lucky, this time one kill will be a nest! No wonder you will be entangled!"

When the woman heard what he said, she became even more frightened.

Although she didn't understand what the other party was referring to, she had never heard the so-called "common saying".

But Pei Laoliu's serious appearance does not seem to be fake, besides, she is desperate now, and there seems to be no other way except to trust the other party.

"Master Daoist, we really don't know this... Those hunters in the city killed so many foxes before, and there may not be anything wrong... Why did they..."

When she said this, she was already sobbing. If she had known this, she would not have caught any foxes.

Work harder on your own, weave two more clothes, as long as you survive for a while, when your husband finds a job, you will naturally be able to get over it, how can it be like now.

But it's too late to say anything now.

My husband looks like this bewitched every night, getting weaker and weaker.

After asking all the doctors in the city, they couldn't find a solution, and now they can only pin their hopes on this Taoist priest.

Pei Laoliu teleported to another world this time, except for a Shanhe sword and a fearless suit, he didn't bring any of those guys from before.

But those things have no practical effect, they are just for pretending and fooling people.

It's just that he doesn't have a compass talisman in his hand at the moment, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

"Right now, everything in this world is revived, spiritual energy is surging, and all kinds of monsters and ghosts are born out of nowhere. It's not peaceful. Your husband is going to fight some kind of fox monster at this time. It's really... hey!"

Sixth Master flicked his arm, looking as if he hated iron but not steel.

"Saving people is like putting out a fire. Time is running out now. Take me to your house quickly and let me see how your husband is doing. Let's go!"

……

Half an hour later, in front of a small house in the residential area of ​​Hanyue City.

"Looks like it's here, it really has a strong demonic aura!"

Looking at the mess in front of him, Pei Laoliu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Seeing this scene, the woman at the side hurried into the house regardless of the fear in her heart.

"Husband! Husband! Where are you! What's going on here?"

Sixth Master took a look at Li Qiang and asked him to watch outside, while he followed inside.

The house of this woman's house is even worse than the courtyard.

Not only was the furniture scattered all over the place, but there were also bloodstains all over the place. It didn't look like it had dried up, and it should have been left not long ago.

"what!!!"

At this time, the woman's screams suddenly came from the back room, the voice was shrill and piercing, as if she had seen the most terrifying thing.

Sixth Master hurried in, and when he saw the scene in the room, he couldn't help but gasped.

I saw a piece of blood-stained human skin hanging on the original position of the door curtain!
On the ground, there were human remains scattered all over the place.

For Pei Laoliu, a veteran of the Jianghu, after seeing such a scene, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.

The scene in front of him was too appalling, even for an outsider like Liu Ye, let alone that woman named Xiuhui.

Xiuhui was very straightforward at the moment, she rolled her eyes and fainted from fright.

By the time Pei Laoliu woke her up, about 10 minutes had passed.

"I, where am I..."

Xiuhui raised her head, looked around in a daze at first, then her expression froze, as if she had thought of something, she hurriedly stood up from her chair and ran into the room.

The horror in the room remained the same.

But this time, she didn't faint from the fright again, she just stood in front of the door, staring blankly at the scene inside the door.

"Husband, husband..."

On the cheeks, two lines of clear tears flowed down.

She has already recognized that the owner of the human skin in front of her is his husband.

Seeing this, Pei Laoliu sighed.

"After all, it's still a step late..."

Obviously, this Xiuhui's husband has been murdered, just in the short period of time when she came out to find her.

This is the second time Pei Laoliu has seen such a scene.

The first time was by the creek in Dongyuan Village. When the old lady Li faced her dead son alone, she felt the same grief.

He stood there quietly for a moment, waiting for the woman to come back.

"Daoist, Daoist! My child! My child is gone!"

Xiuhui checked the bed in the room, but she didn't find her two children, so she panicked again.

Pei Laoliu frowned. Judging from the corpses on the ground, it seemed that there was no child's bones among them.

At this time, Li Qiang who was outside the door suddenly rushed in and said:
"Sixth Master, Sixth Master, many officers and soldiers have come outside, saying they want to check the situation here!"

"Officers and soldiers?"

Pei Laoliu glanced at the woman with some doubts. Could it be that she had already reported to the police before looking for him?

It's just that Xiuhui's reaction also seemed very surprised. She was also a little dazed, not knowing why the officers and soldiers came here.

Just thinking about it, people from outside have already entered.

The leader was a man in dark red armor, and behind him was a group of sergeants also wearing armor.

"This is... the master of the City Guards..."

Li Qiang whispered in Pei Laoliu's ear.

The latter also felt a little unexpected when he heard the words.

There was a murder case in the city, and it was not the police who came to investigate, but the city guards.

This is a bit different from the system in his impression.

"The city guards are handling the case! Everyone else stays away! Are you the owner of this house? What's going on here?"

A soldier came over and asked Pei Laoliu.

Seeing the other party's arrogant tone, Liu Ye immediately turned cold and said:
"The master's house is right there, you can ask her yourself."

"Hey, you old man, how do you talk!?"

The soldier was not a loser, so he stretched out his hand and pushed Master Liu.

It's just that when he pushed, Liu Ye didn't move at all.

On the contrary, he didn't pay attention, staggered and fell several steps backwards.

"Bold! How dare you openly attack the city guards, you old man!"

The soldier came back with a flushed face, and pulled out the sword in his waist along the way, and slashed at Liu Ye on the head.

Sixth Master's eyes flickered coldly, and without hesitation he drew out his Shanhe Sword to meet him.

"Boom!!!"

The imagined sound of metal clanging did not come, but a strong sound of piercing the air resounded through the room.

The soldier's long sword broke in two in an instant.

And the silver-white sword in Liu Ye's hand was placed on his neck exactly, and an inch further forward would have killed him.

No matter how arrogant the soldier was, his face turned pale with fright at this moment, and he didn't dare to move.

"Good sword!"

Behind the soldier, the middle-aged man yelled excitedly.

But before he could continue to say something, he heard a series of "bang bang bang bang" sounds in the room.

Everyone turned their heads in unison.

I saw that on the right side of the old man in green, at the place where the sword was drawn just now, including the walls and furniture, everything was split into two at this moment, broke into two pieces, and collapsed to the ground.

"This this……"

At this time, even the middle-aged man couldn't help showing a horrified expression.

He was surprised enough when he saw that the sword easily cut off the weapon he could not afford.

What I didn't expect was that the opponent's wave just now cut the wall like tofu. Such a magic weapon is simply unheard of.

"No, that's not right... There is no weapon in this world that can do this. I'm afraid it's due to the old man's cultivation. This person can split bricks and stones so easily without revealing his inner strength. The high-end ones are so terrifying..."

Thinking of this, he didn't dare to be negligent any more, he stepped forward and shouted at the subordinate:
"Wang Hu! Who told you to use swords at will! You still don't pay attention to the rules of the city guard!? Come on! Take him down for me to beat the [-]th army stick!"

Seeing this, Pei Laoliu knew that the other party was trying to excuse him.

But now that he was in someone else's territory, he didn't want to cause too much trouble, so he took back the sword in his hand.

Accompanied by the vibration of the Shanhe Sword, the expression on the middle-aged man's face became more curious and eager.

It's true that the opponent is a master, but this sword is definitely a rare magic weapon in the world, otherwise, how could it be possible to make such a beautiful sword sound?

He clasped his fists and said:

"Your Majesty, Xing Rilong is the commander of the city guard army. Today I heard that some people said that the Qian family has been doing strange things recently. I came here to lead someone to investigate. Dare I ask what is the name of this sword? What is the name of this sword? It is so sharp. It's the first time I've seen it!"

Pei Laoliu was dissatisfied with their group's performance just now.

The soldier acted fiercely, but as an officer, he had no intention of stopping it.

If I were an ordinary person, I might have already been killed by the soldier's sword by this time.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a dull feeling in his heart.

At first, I thought that in this ancient world, I could still experience the kind of carefree life I imagined.

But now it seems that it is not what I thought at all.

What's more here is the feudal thinking that he, a water blue star, can't bear.

From those villagers kneeling down at every turn, to these city guards killing people at the slightest disagreement, Liu Ye said that he still couldn't adapt to such an environment.

"You and I have no destiny, so what's the point of saying the name? As for this sword, you may not recognize it if I tell you, so don't waste your time."

Pei Laoliu flatly refused.

"you!"

Some soldiers are angry but want to stand up.

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile on his face:

"Senior, what happened just now is indeed because I was incapable of discipline, and I offended him a lot, please return Haihan."

He clasped his fists again, and no longer struggled with the previous topic, but said:

"Our city guards have heard that some strange things have happened to the Qian family before. According to neighbors, they often make miserable howls in the middle of the night... The safety of the city has always been handled by our city guards. Responsible, so come over and check it out, if there is any offence, please forgive me senior."

"Humph……"

Pei Laoliu snorted coldly, but he didn't intend to argue with them anymore.

Pointing to the inner room, he said:

"You are already late. The owner of the family has been killed, and the two children are missing. Only the lady is left."

Hearing this, Xing Rilong craned his neck to look inside, and after seeing the scene inside, his expression also changed.

He quickly picked out two soldiers and walked over to carefully check the situation in the house.

"This...what kind of hatred? Why is the perpetrator so vicious...the whole human skin is given..."

He couldn't help but stop at this point.

It's just because the scene inside is so cruel that even if he saw it, he couldn't hold it back.

"Zhang Qing, Zhang Zi, go and check the situation there carefully, and don't reveal any details."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look for the woman to understand the situation.

After a while, Zhang Qing and Zhang Zi walked out of the room again.

It's just that their faces all looked bad, and there was a hint of disbelief mixed in with them.

"What's the matter? Just speak up when you have something to say, and talk like a bitch!"

Xing Rilong couldn't see their appearance, and urged impatiently.

"This, this...Captain, if we say so, don't blame us for talking nonsense..."

"Say it!"

"Yes... According to our investigation, there is no trace of the third person at the scene of the crime here, and there is no trace of other people coming. Then, that Qian Song..."

"What happened to Qian Song? Could it be that he committed suicide!?"

Zhang Qing and Zhang Zi looked at each other, swallowed at the same time, and said:

"He, he really committed suicide..."
