Xiao Han thought of something again and asked, "Didn't you report this to the local Wuwei Department when something like this happened?"

Speaking of this, the expressions of the couple obviously changed. Guo Tong hesitated to speak. He felt that Xiao Han's clothes were extraordinary and his money was generous. His family must be good. If someone in the family was an official, wouldn't it be what they wanted to say? Offended the other party in disguise.

Xiao Han is so old, how could he not see the worries of the couple: "I travel all over the world, and I make a living by knowing a little bit. I can say what I want to say boldly, and I can scold those dog officials if I want to. I have scolded you, even if you are the emperor, I dare to scold you, what a bullshit emperor, I am bah.”

"Xiao, Brother Xiao, you can't say it, it will make you lose your head."

Guo Tongren was dumbfounded. They never thought that Xiao Han would dare to speak so much, and even the current emperor would dare to scold him. It would be terrible if someone with a heart heard this.

At this time, Guo Yuan, who had finished roasting the rabbit, strode over and said indignantly: "Grandpa Xiao, you don't know that when we look for officials in Wuze City, we need to pay the gatekeeper when we enter. We had to pay the guide, and we had to pay if we wanted to do things. Finally, we met a steward. After hearing the whole story, he took the money and asked us to come back and wait for news. We waited until now. "

"Steward?" Xiao Han clenched his fists as he heard this: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be reported directly to the Wu Wei Department?"

"Grandpa Xiao, you may not know something. Our area is under the management of Wuze City. The rules here are to report to the government at all levels, and finally to the Wuwei Department. If the money is small, it is completely unknown whether it will be done." Guo Yuan was helpless. His village was not very wealthy, and everyone had to scrape together the money to report to the official.

Xiao Han frowned and asked in a deep voice: "The Wuwei Department and the government are completely different things. How can it be necessary to report to the Wuwei Department from all levels of the government? What are the rules here?"

Guo Yuan smiled helplessly and nodded: "Our rules here."

Xiao Han suddenly figured it out. It was 80% that the local government and the local military department colluded to squeeze the people. In addition, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. If a few scum appear, it will become like this. It's a pity that he is not Erya. He doesn't have an official position, otherwise he would clean up these bugs now.

Waiting for tomorrow, he will go to the city to write a letter to Erya and his grandson, saying that they are safe and telling them the truth about the situation here. These insects must be punished.

Thinking about it, Xiao Han's face suddenly changed. This was the first time that he had so strongly experienced the changes in a person's mood when he gets older. Back then, he might have hit the door with one shot, but now his first thought is to avoid it. If it causes trouble for Erya and grandson, use their power to solve the problem through formal channels.

"Then, since you know there is a man-eating monster, why haven't you moved away yet? I see that several families in the village have moved away. Can't you wait until the Wuwei Division has dealt with the monster before coming back?" Xiao Han asked again.

Guo Tong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother Xiao, our village depends on the mountains. These mountains have supported countless generations of people. We only have this hunting ability. How can we live without the mountains? How can we live away from here? Our home and our roots are all here. Here it is.”

Xiao Han was speechless, and what he wanted to say was not uttered in the end. Yes, the life of most ordinary people is like this. Their roots have taken root and they can no longer leave.

"Xiao Yuan, after you get married, you and Meimei can go live in the town. Your father and I will be enough at home." Guo Tong's wife said to Guo Yuanyu seriously.

"No, you have to come with me, it's not safe at all!"

How could Guo Yuan rest assured that the two elders would stay in the village? The monster could even knock down the tree they were hugging. The reinforcements the villagers were doing at home were nothing more than a mantis.

"What are you afraid of? Don't you still believe in the archery skills of your father and your Uncle Dong? If the monster dares to come again, it will definitely suffer heavy losses."

"Mom, I'm not a three-year-old kid anymore!"

Xiao Han listened to the conversation between mother and son, solemnly nodded to Guo Tong and said: "Brother Guo, don't worry, if the monster dares to come tonight, I will deal with it myself."

"Brother Xiao, that monster can't even be hurt by arrows. I'm afraid it's invulnerable. Let's wait for the people from the Wuwei Department to deal with it." Guo Tong was more worried about Xiao Han's safety and didn't want him to die in vain because of his loyalty.

"Don't worry, brother Guo, I'm measured." Xiao Han said to Guo Tong, "Don't worry. If he wasn't afraid of causing too much noise and attracting people from the Tang Clan, he would definitely show off his hands to the other party."

"Brother Xiao, let's eat first, it will get dark later."

Guo Tong's wife quickly changed the subject and invited everyone to eat.

"Yes, Grandpa Xiao, hurry up and eat. This rabbit meat won't taste good when it's cold." Guo Yuan agreed.

It was hard to reject the hospitality, so Xiao Han didn't show any courtesy. He sat down with the family of three and had a sumptuous dinner in the courtyard under the setting sun.

On the other side, Shen Yi'an and Hidden Disaster did not enter the village. They found an open space in the forest a little further away from the village and lit a bonfire. They took out some food from their storage treasures and took a simple bite.

Finding that his grandfather was in good condition, Shen Yi'an felt relieved. He took out the sound transmission jade pendant and took the initiative to contact Ye Liyan. Hidden disaster sat on the wooden pier next to him and took out a booklet to sort out the information on Yunchuan. As time went by at night, Coming quietly, everything is so peaceful and quiet.

At midnight, at Guo Tong's house, Xiao Han was lying on the bed with his legs crossed, looking straight at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking. Ah Jia lay on his chest and looked out the window curiously.

"At this time, Brother Guo and the others should all be asleep."

Xiao Han murmured, and simply sat up from the bed. Rather than waiting for the enemy, it was better to take the initiative. The monster would run away when there were many people, and it was not that strong at all. If he could deal with it early, he could come back and sleep early.

"Wu!"

Because Xiao Han suddenly sat up, Ah Jia was completely unprepared. He fell on the bed with his back stretched out and screamed unhappily.

"Sorry sorry."

Xiao Han smiled awkwardly and quickly turned Ah Jia over to his front side. At this moment, there was a "dong dong" knock on the door, very softly.

This small house was for storing sundries, but it had a bed. Guo Tong and his wife wanted him to sleep in the main room, but he refused. He didn't choose a place to sleep. A place to lie down was enough.

"Brother Xiao, you really haven't slept yet."

The door opened, and there was Guo Tong standing outside, carrying a bow and arrows on his back, and a short knife on his waist, as if he was fully armed.

Xiao Han was stunned: "Brother Guo, you..."

Guo Tong entered the house, carefully closed the door, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiao, if you insist on looking for the monster, I will go with you."

He could guess that Xiao Han was not the kind of person to sit still and wait for death, so he didn't sleep. When he heard some movement here, he came out quietly.

"No, it's too dangerous!" Xiao Han refused simply.

"Brother Xiao, I can't let you go into danger alone, and only by killing that monster can our lives return to normal. Instead of waiting for death here, it's better to fight with you."

Guo Tong's eyes were firm, because Xiao Han was not an ordinary person, and this allowed him to see an opportunity, an opportunity to kill the monster. As the saying goes, it is better to rely on others than to rely on yourself. There has been no news from the government or the Wu Wei Department until now. He has given up, so he must fight for it.

"Dong dong!"

Xiao Han and Guo Tong: "?!"
