Shopkeeper and God

Mu He Qingyan said: "The sword spirit is a spirit body, although it is not wrong to leave the body in the underworld. You two can follow me back to the city later." Su Mu agreed, "Okay." ".Qingyan had just cried, but her voice was still hoarse, and she said, "I'll go wherever Su Mu goes." Her eyes were still teary, but they seemed to be glued to Su Mu's body.

Baochen tugged at Lu Xing, reminding them that they should go too, and Lu Xing said goodbye to the Fujun.Fu Jun didn't bother to pay attention to them, he just rolled his eyes and said "hmm", watching them turn around to leave, but suddenly remembered something, and said "slow down".

The two of them stopped, but they saw that the man of the house stepped forward with his hands behind his back, looked at Baochen and said, "You give me peace in the world, don't cause any trouble, only the three realms and six realms can enjoy happiness, prosperity and longevity." All." Lu Xing didn't understand the meaning of these words, he felt that Baochen had been to the underworld, but he didn't understand why Fujun said such things to Baochen.He looked at Bao Chen suspiciously, but the other party still had no expression on his face, but held his hand a little tighter.But in the end, he didn't speak, and left with Lu Xing.

Fu Jun looked at the two figures leaving, and let go of the hands behind his back.An attendant behind him followed up and whispered in his ear: "The matter of the Three Lives Book, let's just forget about it?" Obviously he knew it.

The Fujun showed a sneer like a snake, and said: "The three worlds have been peaceful for too long."

"Well, let's see what they can do and have some fun."

"Last October, the thief pretended to be down and out and asked my lady to take him in. Who would have thought that he used indecent means to deceive the lady's body and mind, and even said that he would take the lady to elope. He gave him a beating and knocked him out of the door. My young lady has been ill ever since, and when she saw that she was going to die in the New Year, she begged the master to find the thief, saying that she wanted to see him for the last time. But after finding him, she turned her face He said that I was seduced by a young lady of my family, and that my clan was arrogant and unreasonable. He broke one of his legs and scolded me for a long time. The woman is fooling around! I am kind enough to tell the two women about my family. Neither of them knew about this matter. They were shocked, and together with us, the three clans decided to arrest the thief. I don’t know where he heard the news , actually made him escape until today!"

Today, a crowd of people surrounded Qixiong's courtyard.This group of people came just after breakfast, and their behavior was polite and decent, which was not offensive.It's just that following the dreary weather, Lu Xing felt that it was a stone weighing on his heart, so he simply sat in the hall drinking tea and listening to them talk.

These people are mainly divided into three families.In the group on the far left, the leader is a young man in a royal blue robe, with an upright and calm face, obviously the master of the matter.Of the two groups of people next to him, the leader was still a teenager. At this moment, he was obviously angry but couldn't vent his anger, so he stared at Lu Xing with wide eyes and didn't speak.Next to the boy was a middle-aged man with a slumped face, the corners of his lips were tightly pursed and he did not speak, obviously he was not in a good mood.

The young man in the sapphire blue robe is the steward of the Mudan clan in Luoyang.Luoyang Peony is a flower demon, although it was born as a flower demon, but it has a special status, and it can be regarded as a bit of a reputation among monsters. Besides, they provoked this incident, so he was the one who was talking just now; The young man is the younger generation of Yanzi in northern Jiangsu; the middle-aged man is the younger brother of Huayang Butterfly Tail Goldfish who is now in charge of the family.

In addition to these three major clans, some ordinary monsters from small families also came.Although these people are not as courageous as those clan children, they obviously have a lot of anger in their hearts. Some female family members even stirred the handkerchiefs in their hands, wishing they could break them.

Standing by such a group of people, Qixie's courtyard seemed small.Lu Xing took a sip of his tea, and after the young man in the sapphire blue robe finished speaking, the young man next to him couldn't help but continued: "When the thief ran away, we couldn't be more angry, so we went to investigate the past of the thief. When I heard about it, I was shocked. The thief had done this kind of two-footed business as early as three or four years ago. As early as three years ago, he had made friends with a woman from the mural clan of Wumeng Mountain. A lot of money was coaxed from this clan, and it was distributed to the other three women who had befriended him at the same time. Later, the woman from the Mural Clan became pregnant. She borrowed a large sum of money and disappeared. The girl from the Mural Clan knew that she had been deceived, and regretted that she had committed suicide by Ju Xuanliang."

After the young man finished speaking, there were unavoidable sighs from the crowd.The middle-aged man next to him couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, and then said: "Besides, you don't know, my lord, this thief not only picks flowers, but also eats both men and women. When I inquired, I found that many men were also killed by him. I have played with them before, but because of this relationship, most of them dared not speak up, so they just swallowed their anger. Counting these men, within three or four years, there were as many as 21 men and women who were played by this thief, and all clans and families suffered losses. The money is nearly 30." He said, frowning, raised his hand and clasped his fists at Lu Xing, and said: "I don't know where the thief is hiding now, I have always heard that Qi Xie upholds justice, and I am here today. I also hope that the shopkeeper can accept our commission and find the hiding place of the thief for us. Don’t be embarrassed, the shopkeeper. Once we find it, we will deal with him by ourselves, and we won’t bother the shopkeeper. I hope the shopkeeper will be successful."

As soon as he said it filled with righteous indignation, others responded one after another, and the sound of "fulfillment" was like a stone being thrown into the harmonious courtyard.After this sound, there was no sound.

Lu Xing propped his forehead with one hand, sitting leisurely.These people came with great momentum, nothing more than putting pressure on Lu Xing with more courage.It's not that Lu Xing has never faced this kind of situation before. Besides, the commission this time is not difficult, so it stands to reason that he should just take over. However, Lu Xing's expression at the moment is rather awkward. After facing the crowd for a long time, he asked: "The flower picker you mentioned is called Jiulang?"

When asked this way, the young man was taken aback, gritted his teeth and answered "Exactly".The young man and the middle-aged man showed doubts on their faces. They looked at each other, and then heard Lu Xing say again: "This man is a promiscuous person, really hateful. But—" He changed A gesture, said: "Others are with me."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately exploded, and the buzz among whispers was mixed. In the end, the young man couldn't help it, and stepped forward half a step: "Since you are here with the owner, you have saved us a lot of trouble. I hope the shopkeeper will hand over him to us." After he said this, several people immediately echoed.It's just that after a while, the echoing voice was forced to stop by the stern gazes of the young and middle-aged people.After all, the two of them had richer experience than the teenagers, and after Lu Xing only said these few words, the two of them realized something was wrong, so they didn't make a sound, just waiting for Lu Xing's answer.There was a moment of silence in the courtyard.

Lu Xing was not in a hurry, and took a sip of tea before he said, "I don't want to lie to you about this, let me tell you the truth. The Jiulang you want to arrest came to my store two days ago and asked me to protect him You all know Qixie's rules when you think about it, so I accepted this commission. You chased me today and asked me to find him, so I will tell you straight, he is in my shop now, but I can't Let me go." After he finished speaking, he took another sip of his tea, "So I can't accept the entrustment of everyone today, so please come back."

As soon as he said this, the courtyard exploded again.The boy's face turned pale suddenly, and he leaned forward, as if he was about to rush up and hit Lu Xing.The young man beside him had quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed his arm and stopped, but didn't speak, only frowning.There was a lot of resentment in the courtyard, but Lu Xing pretended he couldn't hear it. Finally, a woman couldn't stand it anymore. She flicked the veil in her hand and said to Lu Xing, "What are you talking about upholding justice? Qi Xie Is it true that there is no distinction between right and wrong!"

As soon as she said those words, it was like a cold snake crawling across the ground.The middle-aged man looked at this young woman quite dissatisfied. This woman came from a small family and had never seen the big world. How dare she say such words in front of Qi Xie's shopkeeper... The middle-aged man's expression turned pale. Lian, clasped her fists and said: "My lord, this girl has never seen anything in the world..." Before she finished speaking, she was glared at by the woman, blurted out the word "you" before she said anything, Lu Lu over there Then came the voice of waking up, and said, "Say I don't know right from wrong?" There was a smile in the words, but it seemed to be carrying a knife.The woman's words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't help but look at Lu Xing.

Lu Xing changed his sitting posture and sat with a smile on his face, but he was not friendly at all. He looked at the woman and said, "Whose right and wrong is the girl talking about? Right and wrong in this world? Or me?" This harmonious 'right and wrong'?"

The woman was asked, but couldn't answer all of a sudden, Lu Xing was not annoyed, and leaned forward slightly, and said: "If I hand over Mr. Jiulang to you today, it is indeed in line with the world's concept of right and wrong. What's wrong with my honesty? Mr. Jiulang's entrustment comes first, and the entrustment of you people comes later. There must be a first-come, first-served approach to doing things. What's more, it's my Qixie's business. Then I can only say, It's just a coincidence for you, Mr. Jiulang is here with me now, and I want to protect him. This is my Qixie rule."

The woman refused to accept it, and seemed to want to say something, but the young man over there suddenly asked: "In this case, I will take the liberty to understand you."
