The good heroine became the attack

Mei Jingqiu, who was guarding outside the cave, kept thinking about where the evil spirit just came from. Could it be that the fox demon in Guhuai Town really hid on Mount Huai'an? !

Just when he frowned and thought deeply, a familiar female voice came from behind: "Little brother has been waiting for a long time, now we can go back."

"Elder Sister, are your injuries healed?!" Mei Jingqiu turned around and said with surprise.

Song Qingshuang's face still looked a little pale, but her complexion looked much better.She nodded, her voice soft and gentle: "Thank you for the elixir, my little brother. My injuries are no longer serious."

"That's good. Just now, other people sent a letter saying that they have all returned to the inn. I briefly explained the matter and told them that I will go back later." Mei Jingqiu recounted what happened just now in a few words.

Looking up at the sky, they realized that it was indeed getting late. After discussing, the two decided to set off directly and return to Guhuai Town.

As for the whereabouts of the fox demon, even though it is impossible to tell what kind of monster it is based on the monster aura just now, it has proved that there is indeed a monster on Huai'an Mountain!

Mei Jingqiu was worried about the injury on the senior sister, and suggested that Yu Jian take the senior sister with her.Song Qingshuang was silent for a moment, then nodded in acquiescence to his suggestion.

There was a lot of delay in Huai'an Mountain, and the sky had become very dark when they returned to the inn.

Shopkeeper Xu heard the knock on the door and opened it cautiously.After seeing the two of them, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

It is not an exaggeration to say that in the eyes of shopkeeper Xu, these immortals are their last straws, so naturally they don't want any accidents to happen to them.

Seeing them coming back, the rest of the juniors stepped forward to express their concern.

Especially the younger junior sister Shao Han, who leaned close to Mei Jingqiu with a worried expression on her face, "Senior Brother Mei, you came back so late, but what danger did you encounter?"

Mei Jingqiu nodded, and told everything about what happened in Huai'an Mountain before.

After learning that the elder sister was injured, the expressions of the other people became a little nervous.

You must know that these people are all at the Foundation Establishment stage, and the one with the highest cultivation is Song Qingshuang, the elder sister, who is in the late stage of alchemy and is only one step away from the golden alchemy stage.

"How is the elder sister's injury? Do we need to send a letter to the master to send another brother and sister over?" Fu Yang, who stood aside, put forward his own suggestion.

The meaning of Fu Yang's words is obvious, that is, he does not believe that the injured senior sister has enough strength to protect them.The rest of his ideas agreed with him.

The thinking of these people is very simple, since the evil spirit is so powerful that it can seriously hurt the elder sister, then they with lower cultivation bases are naturally powerless to resist, and maybe they will stay here with their lives.

Song Qingshuang remained silent, looking quite hurt.

Seeing this, Mei Jingqiu felt nervous, and said without hesitation: "From the very beginning, this mission is to test us foundation-building disciples. Only when we solve the matter in Guhuai Town with our own hands can we complete the mission. Even if we send a letter to the master, It will also be considered opportunistic. Once it is judged that the task has failed, we will not talk about whether you can keep your identities as inner disciples and direct disciples, but you will definitely not be able to hold your head up in front of your fellow disciples and teachers when you go back!"

It has to be said that what he said hit the point.

This task is not impossible to give up, Tian Yuzong allows disciples to give up the task, but the corresponding inner disciples have to return to the inner sect, and the direct disciples have to go to Siguo Peak for a month.

Besides, he will also be looked down upon by fellow apprentices, and will become the object of ridicule in the future.

This is the most unbearable for a group of young people with excellent qualifications, who can even be called the pride of heaven.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

"Then what should we do next?!" Shao Han asked softly.

"First summarize the news we got today, and then plan what to do tomorrow." Mei Jingqiu said calmly.

Except for the news they got from the mayor, the other four people did not notice the existence of the evil spirit in the other two directions.That is to say, if there is a fox demon in Guhuai Town, the most likely place to hide is Huai'an Mountain!

Because they don't know how high the fox demon is, they definitely can't rush there.

Mei Jingqiu suggested that we might as well collect intelligence separately tomorrow to see if we can get more clues from other places.

The six people each had their own division of labor. He and the elder sister first went to find the escaped Zhang Xiucai to see if they could get any news out of him.

Fu Yang and Shao Han are in charge of going to the town to inquire, to see if anything else happened in the town before the fox demon appeared.

And the remaining two went to the Yamen to see if there was anything unusual about the bodies of those who died.

Right now they couldn't go directly to the fox demon, and couldn't come up with a better way, so they could only nod and acquiesce to his proposal.

Now that everyone has discussed it, and it is not early outside, they all went back to the house to rest.

Mei Jingqiu pinched her fingers and calculated the time, there were still three days before the [-]th of this month, and there was really not much time left for them.

-----------------

Early the next morning, Mei Jingqiu and Song Qingshuang went out to Zhang Xiucai's house together.

Just the night before, they inquired about Zhang Xiucai's residence from Shopkeeper Xu.

At the same time, shopkeeper Xu also told them that Zhang Xiucai had become insane since the escape.If you want to get something out of his mouth, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Zhang Xiucai's home is in a relatively secluded part of the town, and the houses here look more shabby, with trails everywhere.The difficult road conditions made it difficult for them to find Zhang Xiucai's home.

It was Mei Jingqiu who found out the exact location of Zhang Xiucai's home after finding her aunt who was washing clothes by the stream.

When Zhang Xiucai was mentioned, the aunt looked sad.

Mei Jingqiu tentatively mentioned it, and she told all about Zhang Xiucai like beans poured out of a bamboo tube.

Zhang Xiucai's real name is Zhang Chunlai, following his mother's surname. They are not locals, but migrated from other places.

According to Zhang's mother herself, she brought the child here to seek a living because of an accident with the man.

But the neighbors in the neighborhood didn't believe this statement. They all said that Zhang's mother had sex with a wild man without a matchmaker, and she hid here because she got pregnant.

Especially Zhang's mother is young and beautiful, with a charming and graceful figure, she is not like an ordinary woman at all.Her arrival aroused many men around her to covet her, and also made the women here jealous of her.

The strange thing is that those men who harassed her all had accidents in the end. After a long time, everyone dared not provoke them, and even avoided their mother and son.

Fast-forward 17 years, no one would have imagined that the baby who was still in its infancy turned out to be the reincarnation of a prodigy, and achieved fame at a young age!

Neighbors came to congratulate her one after another, and Zhang's mother didn't seem to remember what happened in the past, so she set up a floating banquet for three days with a smile.

Since then, Zhang Xiucai has become a golden phoenix flying out of the chicken coop, deeply loved by the neighbors around him.

"If it hadn't happened for that incident, this scholar would have already become an official!" Auntie sighed.

"Auntie, does that matter refer to that matter?!" Mei Jingqiu pretended to be curious.

Unexpectedly, the aunt who was still gossip before immediately changed her expression, and she said in panic: "Damn, what I just said was all nonsense, and it can't be true. Aren't you going to find Zhang Xiucai? His house is right in front A place at the corner of an alley." After speaking, he got up and hugged the wooden basin and hurried back to the wooden house where he lived.

Mei Jingqiu was thoughtful, and walked towards Zhang Xiucai's house with the elder sister.

The author has something to say:

Miscalculation, today is busy, tomorrow will be more, write out the assassination plan!
