Chapter 871 A corner of troubled times
The five female ghosts looked at each other and knelt down in unison.
Qin Yao understood now.
They do not want to be reincarnated, but want to pursue higher goals.
“Tell me, what do you all want to do?”
"I want to follow you and be a maidservant." A female ghost said first.
"I think so too."
"The same goes for the slave family."
......
The other four female ghosts spoke one after another, with respectful attitudes , with a sincere tone.
"The Taoist Master already has a maid." At this time, Nie Xiaoqian suddenly flew into the palace from outside and looked around at the five ambitious sisters.
She is well aware of how kind Daochang Qin is to the people around him. She could not even think about the benefits she has received recently in detail.
But what if this "good" is divided into many parts?
How much more can she get?
Therefore, let alone these god sisters, even if they are biological sisters, she cannot tolerate each other threatening her position.
"Xiao Qian."
"Sister Qian."
The five ghosts greeted each other one after another, and one of the female ghosts said: "Don't get me wrong, we are not trying to take your place, we just I want to follow the Taoist priest, and serve him wholeheartedly.”
Nie Xiaoqian frowned, but couldn’t say anything else.
Because her current status is just a maid, she is not qualified to speak for Qin Yao.
"One maid is enough. She can serve tea and pour water, make the bed and fold the quilt. Too many will be troublesome."
Under Nie Xiaoqian's slightly nervous gaze, Qin Yao smiled and said: "I don't need it either. There are so many followers. If you don’t want to reincarnate, you don’t have to go. As long as you don’t harm others, you should be able to live well with your methods and abilities.”
Five Ghosts. disappointment.
The five of them were the ghosts who took the initiative to stand up and voluntarily marry the old demon from Montenegro.
If they had no pursuit for the future, they would not have come forward in the first place.
Nie Xiaoqian was very happy.
Loyalty keeps growing.
A sense of crisis is always the only way to enhance loyalty. Having said that, if there is no sense of crisis, let alone improving loyalty, it would be a good thing if there is no situation of being arrogant and favored.
"For the sake of helping me get the Dryad Demon Pill, I will leave you alive, and you can go away. Be more peaceful in the future. You must know that those who do unrighteousness will be killed." Watching the girls. After the ghost left, Qin Yao turned to look at Huahua Taisui.
Huahua Taisui transformed into the shape of a woman and shook his head repeatedly: "They can leave, but I can't leave. As you said, I have a share in killing the tree demon, just in case the old demon from Montenegro becomes determined. If you want to thoroughly investigate this matter and find out my whereabouts, I will be in bad luck. So for the sake of safety, I can only follow you until you eliminate the old demon from Montenegro."
Qin Yao: "..."
From a practical point of view, this is quite reasonable.
In the early morning, Qin Yao and others returned to Lanruo Temple. Ning Caichen, who heard the noise, quickly put on his clothes and opened the door: "You are finally back..."
"Yours Can the account be collected before noon today?" Qin Yao asked.
"There are two more, definitely OK." Ning Caichen nodded and asked doubtfully: "Do you need my help with anything tomorrow afternoon?"
"It's not that I need your help, but Lanruo Temple is no longer safe."
Qin Yao said: "We are going to Beijing tomorrow. If you can collect the account before noon tomorrow, you can follow us. Leave. By the way, where are you from?" Ning Caichen looked curious: "I came from Langfang County...what happened? Is it something?"
"It's not a big deal." Qin Yao smiled slightly: "We killed a thousand-year-old tree demon, and the ghost master it worshiped may cause us trouble. , so we must leave Guobei County before tonight."
Ning Caichen: "..."
Are you sure this isn't a big deal?
A few hours later.
At noon.
Ning Caichen returned to Lanruo Temple with a package on his back, rode the horse bought by Yan Chixia with Qin Yao and others, and ran out of Guobei County against the wind.
Feng Dian slept in the open for more than half a month, and the group finally arrived outside Langfang County.
Riding into the county seat on horseback, I saw the streets were deserted and there were few pedestrians. Although there were people in the restaurants and inns on both sides, they were holding swords and knives, not like a good man.
“I haven’t been back for more than half a year, why is this place so depressed?” Ning Caichen was riding on his horse, looking at the scene in the county in astonishment.
“Maybe it’s because it’s closer to the capital.” Qin Yao responded.
"My dear guests, do you want to eat?" At this time, a waiter suddenly walked out of the restaurant and waved to them.
Qin Yao raised his eyes and looked past him into the kitchen. He saw a man being imprisoned in a cage. The huge butcher with a round waist held a kitchen knife in his hand and was chopping an arm on the cutting board. .
No wonder that in such a chaotic world, there are not even a single beggar in the county. It turns out that they all become food rations.
"Huahua Taisui, kill these people." Qin Yao ordered.
In troubled times, he can understand even thieves and bandits, but he does not want to understand the behavior of slaughtering the same kind of people as two-legged sheep.
"Okay, leave it to me."
A pool of living blood mud rushed out from the cloth bag on the side of his horse, pierced the chest of the waiter like a sharp sword, and then rushed in In the lobby of the inn, countless thin blood-red needles as thick as ox hair were released, turning those holding knives and swords into a hornet's nest in an instant.
"Bang bang bang bang."
Seeing this tragic situation, every restaurant and inn hastily closed its doors, as if they were guilty of committing crimes.
Shao Yan.
Ning Caichen led them to a small pagoda-like building. He looked at the seal on the door of the small building and was completely stunned.
He went to collect accounts for Jibaozhai, and he stayed there for more than half a year. Now the money has been recovered, but Jibaozhai is gone?
"Do you have a home in the county?" Qin Yao woke him up with one word.
"Yes, yes, I will take you there." Ning Caichen said quickly.
In a blink of an eye, Ning Caichen led everyone to a mud house. Looking inside through the riddled wooden door, he saw two dirty women, one big and one small, huddled in the corner. , looking at them with horror in his eyes.
Ning Caichen was silent for a moment, then turned to Qin Yao and said, "I don't know them."
"I can see that." Qin Yao said, "You can't live in this house either. Let’s go and find an inn first.”
Ning Caichen took one last look at the two women in the room, then turned and left.
Langfang County looked deserted, but the news spread quickly. When Qin Yao and the others rode out of the alley of Ning Caichen's house, all the inns in the entire county were closed, leaving Yan No matter how much Chixia shouted, no one answered.
“This damn world.”
Xia Houyan said angrily.
Qin Yao was very indifferent to this, and turned to Ning Caichen and asked: "Do you know if there is a place near the county town that can accommodate us?"
