The little junior sister started acting like a monster again!

Chapter 260 The strangeness in Guxiang Town

The morning sun was slightly dew, and fine raindrops were floating in the long and wide alley. The bluestone slabs were wet, and water dropped in front of the tile eaves, but they still could not resist the enthusiasm of the vendors. On both sides of the market were teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops. There are many small vendors with big umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides. The crowds are bustling with people, the scenery is colorful, and the streets are bustling with people.

——Shanju Inn

The interior is clear and bright. The quilt and curtains on the couch are pure and elegant, soaked with the fragrance of ink. There are two jade pillows on them. There is a copper stove on the floor of the inner room. The fine forged charcoal fire is mixed with styrax and incense, which is fragrant. Pleasant, clear floor tiles exude warmth and hint of spring.

There was a man and a woman sitting on round square stools on both sides of the Ruyi round table. Gu Jinshu rested his chin on his hand and looked out the window, thinking about something. Even though Qi Mingze raised his hand and waved it up and down in front of her eyes, she didn't come back to her senses and shouted twice. I was also indifferent, so I had no choice but to...

The lost girl only felt a slight pain in her left ear, and said in a panic: "Eh? Eh?! Eh!!"

His head was forced to tilt, and he flapped his hands a few times. No need to guess who was picking up his ears: "Fourth Senior Brother, your ears... my ears are about to be broken by you."

Looking at the little junior sister who was about to shed tears, Qi Mingze suddenly loosened his hand. Gu Jinshu rubbed his ears and said aggrievedly: "Fourth senior brother, you are so cruel, how can you bear to do it?"

Seeing that she had come to her senses, Qi Mingze sat on the stool again and took a sip of hot tea, and slowly said: "Junior sister, you have wronged me. I saw that junior sister was in a daze for too long, so I was really worried, so I had to take this step. ." And the force with which he just lifted her ears made it difficult for him to pick up chopsticks.

Gu Jinshu: "How could I be in a daze?"

Qi Mingze: "Of course people who are in a daze don't know that they are in a daze."

Gu Jinshu put down the hand that was rubbing his ears. There were no traces of redness on his ears: "What Fourth Senior Brother said makes sense, and I can't refute it."

Qi Mingze raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, little junior sister, can you tell me what was going through your mind just now? You were so lost in thought."

Gu Jinshu thought of the point he had been struggling with just now and said, "I was wondering, are there really monsters here?"

Qi Mingze listened to the vendors on the street who were still shouting loudly and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Gu Jinshu, who had been observing carefully since he entered Guxiang Town, explained: "According to what Sixth Senior Brother explained, Guxiang Town has been harassed by demons during this period, killing people one after another and seriously disrupting people's lives. "

Qi Mingze: "Yes, this is indeed what the sixth junior brother said."

Gu Jinshu's eyes fell out of the window again: "Normally, shouldn't you be scared when something like this happens? What's more, ordinary people, they are monsters and not humans. After learning that someone has been killed in their town, they will be careful even if they go out. Is it right to be cautious? But the scene outside is very strange now, no one is anxious or worried."

Qi Mingze's eyes narrowed to a slit: "It's really strange. After we came in, we also asked some vendors, but they all had an attitude of having nothing to do with them. Their answers to any questions we asked were vague, as if they were not interested in this matter. I don’t take it to heart.”

Gu Jinshu: "So it's even more strange. If you don't care about this matter, why are you so anxious to send out the mission? You even tell people from the six major sects and ask them to send people to solve it? Isn't this a conflict?"

Qi Mingze also thought seriously for a while and said, "Should we visit the person who came to the mission hall to issue the mission?"

Gu Jinshu's eyes that had just brightened suddenly dimmed again: "I also thought about this method, maybe I can get some useful clues from that person's mouth, but the people in the mission hall told me that the person with the mission card asked to remain anonymous. He didn’t leave any clues about himself, he just said that the person was a masked man.”

Qi Mingze was a little surprised: "Anonymous? This is special treatment."

Gu Jinshu turned his head and looked at him: "Special treatment?"

Qi Mingze nodded and said: "You can notify the mission hall of any big or small matter and leave a mission. As long as the remuneration you give is fair, or the remuneration you give is generous enough, then your mission will be more popular, and there will always be people who are not afraid of it. The dead man goes to try his best, and because of this, the mission hall has clear regulations that no matter what the matter is, three pieces of information must be left on the mission card."

Gu Jinshu: "Three pieces of information? It refers to the name of the person who posted the task, what problem needs to be solved, and the reward that should be given after solving the task?"

Qi Mingze chuckled: "Smart."

Gu Jinshu: "Has this situation never happened before?"

Qi Mingze: "As far as I know, there is no such thing. No matter what your official position is or how virtuous and prestigious you are, everyone is equal in front of the mission hall. This is also the first time I have heard of someone requesting anonymity in the mission hall. The key point is that this request is still Passed.”

Gu Jinshu turned her head in silence and looked at the newly bloomed petals in the potted plant by the window. She didn't know how to explain the restless feeling in her heart.

Qi Mingze noticed that something was wrong with the little junior sister's mood, and gently touched her head: "Little junior sister, don't worry, the sixth junior brother should have gathered with the disciples from other sects at this time and is on the way over. I will meet them later and go together." There may be new directions.”

There are disciples from other sects, which makes Gu Jinshu even more uneasy. The plot has changed a long time ago. There will definitely be uneasy and well-meaning people among the disciples who will treat Lin Yaoxuan as a big grievance. Now he really can only wait for Lin Yaoxuan. Wait for someone to come over before making a decision.

Gu Jinshu suppressed the uneasy feeling in his heart, and when he raised his head again with a generous smile on his face, he responded to Qi Mingze with a broad smile: "Okay!"
