contract slave

In the next few days, Shen Hao acted like a grandpa, not to mention making the best use of everything at night, and let him use walking instead of a car during the day.In the end, Jiang Xiaohua couldn't stand it anymore, and bought Xiao Fang a little red horse with her monthly payment.Xiao Fang didn't feel embarrassed either, and accepted Jiang Xiaohua's cursing complaints graciously.

Shen Hao was actually better than Xiao Fang, seeing his horse, he just smiled.

"You really have some good subordinates." Shen Hao said.

If Jiang Xiaohua heard it here, she might immediately face swords, Xiao Fang was not annoyed, and replied with a smile: "Master, thank you."

With the mounts, the two of them traveled much faster. In less than five days, they were close to Linjiang.

"Master, do you want to start investigating all kinds of clues?" Xiao Fang asked, "Now that we have arrived at Linjiang, the Jiang bandits may have to travel for four weeks to go up and down the waterway. If you ask along the river, you may receive some news."

Shen Hao was leading his horse forward. Hearing this, he glanced back at Xiao Fang and asked, "Xiao Fang, are you really the Demon Sect Poison Master?"

"The villain is not, the villain is just the master's slave." Xiao Fang said with a smile.

Shen Hao laughed: "You really know how to scratch people's feet. As he said that, he took out a book from his carry-on items, the above-mentioned "Ghost Walk". When he opened it, it was a manuscript written by Shen Hao himself.

"Jiang Bandit's actions are tight, and their routes are strange. They cannot be done by well-trained people. The things they hijacked are nothing more than the freight of aristocratic families in Sichuan, or the personnel and affairs of famous families. The reasons for this seem to be very foggy. It is to block the trade in Sichuan and prevent outside Sichuan from entering Sichuan. The reason is that it is clear who can benefit." Shen Hao flipped through his notebook and said.

"Master is wise and powerful." Xiao Fang complimented perfunctorily.

Shen Hao didn't care too much, and just spread out the notebook: "Linjiang Xue's family, Lin Xiyong's family, and Jiangwei Xu's family, although the three families have also been attacked by Jiang bandits, the freight has never been blocked in the past three months, and there are frequent traffic to and from Shu. Sheng ahead. There must be a problem."

"Then these three are probably too many."

Shen Hao sighed softly: "Let me ask you, when you were in Wuliangjiao, if someone made you unhappy, what would you do?"

"poison."

"If there is a sect that offends countless congregants, what will you do?"

"Naturally, the family is destroyed as a warning." Xiao Fang replied again.

Shen Hao nodded: "That's it. Then you want to behave like this now, isn't it hypocritical?"

Xiao Fang smiled brightly: "The villain is thinking about the reputation of the master, and dare not commit the killing. If it is according to your wishes, the villain, what should the villain do?"

"Naturally, what was done in the past is how it is done now."

"How did you do it before, how do you do it now?" Xiao Fang repeated, "Master, if I remember correctly, these three big families with no less than a hundred people in each family, you want me to destroy all three families in one go. Fireworks?"

Shen Hao looked at the turbulent green river in the distance, and replied with a cold voice: "Why not?"

Jiang Xiaohua, who was hiding in the woods, felt cold all over for some reason.From his point of view, Xiao Fangzheng looked at Shen Hao's back with admiration to admiration.

Jiangwei Xu's family.

All the belongings had already been ordered to be driven by ox carts and horse-drawn carts to the boat, and only the head of the Xu family was left in the Xu family's mansion to pack up the last belongings in a hurry.

"The boss! The boss! The spies are back!" Xu Ba stumbled back from the outside, out of breath.

"How is it?!" Xu Dadao's chubby forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

"Both the Lin family and the Xue family are gone." After Xu Ba finished speaking, he fell to the ground exhausted.

Master Xu's complexion suddenly became ashen, and he sat down on the official hat chair unsteadily, and said in a daze, "It's been a few days, and they're all gone...they are...why didn't they disappear?"

"I heard people said it was dysentery. The person started to have diarrhea and couldn't stop it even after drinking the medicine. In the end, he died of dehydration and fatigue. He died very quickly. In less than three days, there were no two living people in the whole family."

Master Xu said with lingering fears: "Fortunately, my family left early and realized that something was wrong, so we have already boarded the boat. I am afraid that we are about to leave Sichuan at this moment. You follow me to burn some of the internal accounts. Let's go. Remember, don't drink water."

"Yes, yes." Xu Ba was also quite frightened, and the two tiptoed to the study room, struck flint, and began to burn some items that could not be taken away.

After about a stick of incense, Xu Da said: "You burn it first, and I will fetch something."

He went out of the study room, walked around the empty courtyard for a long time, arrived at the Xu Family Ancestral Hall, pushed the door in, and carefully locked it inside. After walking to the queue, he pressed a few places, and there was a sound of "哢哢" from below. There was a sound of "crack-crack-crack", and then a pot of strange burning things slowly rose up.

It was a huge pot of peony-like flowers, half-opened, enchanting and graceful. The strange thing was that there was a blue flame burning outside the flowers, which was silent and warm, just like ghostly will-o'-the-wisps.Master Xu held the pot of exotic flowers in his arms, and was about to leave cautiously, when he opened the door, he saw a man in a bright red voluminous dark suit standing in the courtyard, looking at him and smiling.The man was holding a human head in his hand, which was still oozing blood. When Xu Da took a look, it turned out to be Xu Ba. He yelled in fright, and took a few steps back: "Are you a human or a ghost?!"

"Me?" The person opposite giggled, "You say I'm a human, and I am a human. You say I look like a ghost, but maybe I'm a ghost."

Master Xu took a step back: "I have no grievances with you, what do you want?"

"The road to the Yellow Springs of the Lin family and the Xue family is extremely lonely, I would like to invite you to be their company." Xiao Fang shook the head in his hand, and said with a smile, "I forgot to mention, I have already ordered someone to wait for Xu in the Lin Jiang Gorge. Family fleet, do you know what banner I am playing? Naturally, it is the banner of Jiang bandits."

"you!"

"Why is Master Xu angry?" Xiao Fang asked curiously, "Oh, I'm angry that I borrowed your name as Jiang bandit. It's a pity, the Lin family and the Xue family didn't even know why they were so wronged. If it wasn't for you What kind of ghost idea of ​​Jiang bandits came up to scare everyone, so why should I run around for three days to kill you all?"

"You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Xu Dadang's eyes flickered, "What Jiang bandits?"

"Don't refuse. Jiang Bandit is none other than you." Xiao Fang nuzzled, "If I'm not mistaken, that pot is something from the 'underworld', right? It's called 'Rouge Toutuo'. This thing It is very strange, it blooms once every 300 years, and before it blooms, there must not be too much interference from people within a radius of [-] miles. The reason why you want to clean up the river, even pretending to be a river bandit, is to transport this pot of things back from outside Sichuan Right?" Xiao Fang smiled, stretched out his hand generously and said, "I see you don't have to worry anymore, I will keep this stuff well..."

"Don't worry..." Xiao Fang raised his sleeves, revealing his ghostly hands little by little, "I will definitely take good care of it."

Master Xu looked at his hands, his face distorted with fear: "Your hands, you came from hell──"

The voice did not fall.

It's just that he can't say it anymore.

Note: "Rouge Toutuo" is borrowed from Wen Rui'an's novel "Shen Xiang Li Buyi", a necessary medicinal material for the treatment of progeria.
