Poor girl is hated by everyone, villains drive her crazy
Chapter 388: A Conspiracy
"Wen Yu, I checked with my little sister, and found nothing unusual among the refugees."
Before Cui Yuankui entered the house, the voice came from outside the house.
Zhong Xian raised his head from the file and saw the door was pushed open. Cui Yuankui strode in holding Yu Xi, bringing a wave of heat with him.
It was the height of summer and the heat was scorching. Cui Yuankui was a cultivator and could still endure the high temperature, but Yu Xi was almost dying of the heat.
She just didn't understand. The real world was also hot, so why was it even hotter in the secret realm than in reality?
As soon as she entered the room, she jumped off Cui Yuankui's legs and ran straight to Zhong Xian's desk.
There is an ice jar next to the bell and string table, which is filled with ice cubes sent by Qingpei. It can finally be cooler staying here.
Zhong Xian looked at Yu Xi with amusement as he moved a stool to sit next to him as soon as he came in. He almost put his long ears on the table and lay on the table as if he was dying of heat. He couldn't help but say:
"If you're hot, there's a cool mat by the window. Go and have a rest there. I'll ask Qingpei to get you some more ice cubes and put them on the window. It'll be cool when the wind blows in."
"No." Yu Xi ran to the window unwillingly: "I want to stay next to my brother."
She was used to running to Zhong Xian when it was hot.
Even though Zhong Xian's body is not cold now, she is still used to staying by Zhong Xian's side.
Zhong Xian was helpless: "Then I'll go to the window to handle official business, will you come with me?"
"This is fine!" Yu Xi's eyes lit up.
Cui Yuankui rolled his eyes when he saw this: "You heartless little bastard, what kind of magic potion did Zhong Wenyu feed you?"
These days, whenever he wanted to go out, Yu Xi would act coquettishly and make a fuss to go with him.
It was a hot day, and he didn't want Yu Xi to feel too uncomfortable, so as soon as he went out he took out all his pocket money to buy Yu Xi all kinds of delicious food to cool down.
Outside, Yu Xi called him "Brother Yuan Kui" sweetly, which made him very happy.
But when he came back, he looked around, where was his place?
This heartless guy just abandoned him and went towards Zhong Wenyu!
Yu Xi had just sat down on the cool mat by the window when he saw Cui Yuankui's resentment rising to the sky. He immediately patted the empty seat next to him and said, "Brother Yuankui, sit here! It's so cool here!"
Cui Yuan snorted, his eyes full of dissatisfaction.
You abandoned him so readily when you told him to, and now he just lets go? Do you still want to save face?
It can be seen that Yu Xi was looking at him with a bright face. His face trembled, but he still sat down slowly despite Zhong Xian's contemptuous gaze.
...Actually, I'm not that heartless. Look, I even reserved a seat for him, hehe.
Seeing Zhong Xian sitting in front of the window with the unfinished file, Cui Yuankui remembered that he had something else to do, so he continued what he hadn't finished saying:
"There are no cultivators among the refugees, nor are there any demons or monsters. They are all ordinary people, which is normal. However, some people are dissatisfied with living outside the city and think that there are still places to live in the city, so they should be allowed to move in. However, there are not many such people. Most of them are grateful to Qiuluo City for taking them in."
Zhong Xian was stunned for a moment, then quickly said in deep thought: "It is not safe to bring in refugees now. They are probably not used to getting along with the monsters. Speaking of this, I have been thinking about it these days and plan to temporarily relocate the monsters in the city."
Cui Yuankui frowned: "Transfer the demon clan? Wen Yu, you don't have to worry about this. As long as I am here and my master is here, we will definitely not let people with ulterior motives do whatever they want to Qiuluo City."
Zhong Xian shook his head: "It's not that I don't trust you, I'm just afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it, so prepare a way out in advance to be prepared."
As he spoke, Zhong Xian pulled out a map drawn by Qing Pei from the file:
"Qiuluo City is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the mountain streams are long and secluded. Qingpei helped me find four locations where shelters can be built. These locations are confidential. I will find trustworthy people to build them, and transfer the demon tribe in advance. I will tell the outside world that they have gone to the demon world."
He paused and said, "At that time, the refugees outside the city will not come into direct contact with the demon tribe when they enter the city, which will be safer for them."
The residents of Qiuluo City have become accustomed to living with the demons, but people in other cities have not. Some of these people have even been affected by some rumors about the dangers of the demons.
If we let them enter the city directly, it might cause unrest.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll also build the shelter. It will be faster with my participation."
Cui Yuankui did not raise any objections and discussed some details with Zhong Xian.
Who would have thought that at this moment, there was a sudden noise of commotion outside.
A few people looked out the window and saw a servant rushing in with injuries, shouting anxiously: "Sir! Something happened, a demon has hurt someone! Now the immortals who are visiting the mansion are making a fuss, we need you to let them out quickly!"
The demons hurt people?!
When Zhong Xian heard this, he looked at Cui Yuankui, and they both got up and went out immediately.
Yu Xi hung on Cui Yuankui's neck as Cui Yuankui stood up and followed them out.
On the way to find Xu Wencen, Zhong Xian learned that the demons had injured refugees outside the city. It was said that a refugee was bitten by several dog demons while spearing fish by the river.
After biting people, these dog demons ran away.
"Dog demon?"
Zhong Xian narrowed his eyes.
At this time, Xu Wencen had already started to make a fuss, injured the guards, and tried to break the barrier left by Cui Yuankui.
Of course the barrier was not broken, but he saw Cui Yuankui and Zhong Xian from a distance in the courtyard and immediately sneered sharply:
"Cui Yuankui, Zhong Wenyu, I heard that the demons in Qiuluo City hurt people? You have locked me up here now, are you trying to hide the truth?"
This is a serious statement.
Now that things have happened and the news has reached him, I'm afraid everyone in the entire Qiuluo City knows about it. He must take Xu Wencen to see the situation.
Cui Yuankui opened the barrier and saw Xu Wencen coming out, then he said calmly:
"Xu Wencen, you are so well-informed. Even when you are locked up here, you can still hear everything going on. You know what is happening outside earlier than I do."
There are people from the Immortal Sect in the City Lord’s Mansion.
Xu Wencen was in the right at the moment, and he immediately replied confidently: "It was you, Qiu Luocheng, who wanted to conceal the fact that the demon race was doing evil, and even the Heavenly Dao couldn't stand it, so he let me know in advance."
"You keep talking about the way of heaven. If heaven really strikes down a bolt of lightning, a despicable person like you will be the first to be punished."
Cui Yuankui waved his hand. He didn't have time to argue with Xu Wencen. After leaving a few words, he took Zhong Xian to the place where the accident happened.
Xu Wencen had nothing to say and gritted his teeth in anger, but when he thought that Qiu Luocheng would soon be in big trouble, he became happy again and followed on his sword.
The refugees who were bitten have been taken to the city and are being examined by doctors.
"How are the injured?"
As soon as Zhong Xian arrived, he asked the doctor.
The doctor shook his head and said, "He's dying. He was already dead when he was brought in."
This means that there is no way to get the truth from the person who was bitten.
