I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

"My lord, I'll go out and have a look."

Zhu Xiucai stood up from the fire, and was about to call a few night watchmen to go out to check the situation.

But someone is faster than him.

It's day and night parades and baby ghosts.

After they arrived at the mountain temple, they patrolled and guarded around the temple according to Qin Shaoyou's order.

The dark night is not only the world of demons and ghosts, but also the time when the gang of ghosts and ghosts are at their most energetic.

That's right, those bear-like infant ghosts were not only subdued by Qin Shaoyou, but also recruited. Now they are all ghost messengers belonging to the Town God's Temple in Mianyuan County.

With Su Jianqing, Qiu Rong, and a bunch of yin gods staring at them, they are not afraid of these brat-like infant ghosts messing around, and they can correct their worldview and values ​​that have been distorted by Wu Bufan.

At this moment, Zhu Xiucai had just stood up and was about to count people, when he saw Ye Xunyou with a baby ghost, stepping on the dark wind, and flying into the temple with a group of people.

It turned out that the footsteps heard by everyone just now did not come from ghosts, but from this group of people.

A group of living beings with breathing and beating hearts.

Qin Shaoyou looked up and down at the group of people who were captured by Ri Xunyou and Yinggui, frowning slightly, a little surprised.

He felt astonished, not because of how weird and powerful this group of people were.

On the contrary, under his [Clear Eyes] observation, this is a group of ordinary people.

They are male and female, old and young, not only do they not have any tendency to fluctuate in blood and mana, they even look very weak and tired.

After being sent into the temple by the parade and the baby ghosts, this group of people trembled and panicked. There are also children who want to get into the arms of their parents in a panic to seek comfort and protection.

For them, the previous experience was really terrible—they originally wanted to come here to ask for a place to rest and shelter when they saw the lights flickering here.

As a result, before he got close, his body was erected by someone, and he was floating on the wind... Is this something that humans can do?

They want to cry, but they can't make a sound, they want to struggle, but they can't. Can they not be frightened?

These people thought they were captured by the ghosts and were about to be buried in the mouths of the ghosts, but after being thrown into the temple, they didn't see the ghosts, but saw a group of people.

I just don't know, are these people in the temple really human, or ghosts pretending to be?

Seeing the fear of these people, Qin Shaoyou took out the official robes of his demon-suppressing department, shook them off, showed them, and said, "Don't be afraid, we are the night watchmen of the demon-suppressing department, and we won't hurt you." Are you refugees who escaped from the military disaster at the border of Qingtang?"

With these words, Qin Shaoyou used [Smart Tongue], which eased the panic and fear of this group of people a little.

In the crowd, an older man tremblingly saluted Young Master Qin, and replied, "In the words of your lord, we did come from the border of Qingtang."

"How is the situation over there? Don't worry, everyone, with us here, you can rest in peace tonight."

When Qin Shaoyou said this, he gave Zhu Xiucai a wink.

Zhu Xiucai understood, immediately took out dry food, poured some hot water from a ladle, handed it to the group of people, and said, "Come, come, drink some hot water, eat something, don't be afraid, we are good people."

After speaking, he grinned.

But it was this smile that made a little child in his mother's arms cry out in fright.

The smile on Zhu Xiucai's face suddenly froze.

"Don't be afraid, kid. Although this uncle looks like a bad guy, he has a good heart."

Under the comfort of Su Tingyu and Wenzhu, the child stopped crying.

And this group of people also made sure that Qin Shaoyou and the others would not hurt themselves, otherwise they would have been killed as early as when they entered the temple. How could they give dry food and comfort and enlightenment like now?

Someone bravely took the dry food from Zhu Xiucai, and more and more people took the dry food and hot water and thanked Zhu Xiucai.

The mother of the child who was scared by him also said apologetically: "My lord, I'm sorry, children are not sensible, you have a lot, sir, don't take it to heart."

"fine."

Zhu Xiucai waved his hand, as if he didn't care, but there was still some grudge in his heart.

"The way I smile...is it really scary?"

The child's mother didn't dare to say anything, Cui Yougui chuckled and said, "Scholar, scholar, you're asking this question, you still don't know yourself well enough, whether you smile or not, it's scary."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiucai's face darkened, and after a muffled snort, he stopped talking.

At the same time, Qin Shaoyou also learned about the situation on the front line of Qingtang from the elders in this group of people.

The barbarians in Qingtang, relying on the fact that they are all cavalry, have strong mobility, and they come and go like wind on the border, interspersed and burned captives.

The army led by Marquis Dongchuan mainly focused on defense, and wanted to use the city wall and Wubao to resist the invasion of the Qingtang barbarians, and then seek opportunities to surround and eliminate the Qingtang barbarians who had penetrated too deep.

Such a tactic may not be a problem, but for many households in towns and outside Wubao, it has suffered.

The wooden fence in the village is good enough to stop wild beasts and goblins, but it is impossible to stop the barbarian troops in Qingtang.

After the village was breached, either their families were destroyed or their families were destroyed, or just like this group of people, they abandoned their homes and fled under the burning of Qingtang barbarians.

Although demons and ghosts are everywhere now, if you abandon your home and flee disaster, you will have a narrow chance of death, but if you stay at home, you will die out of ten.

In contrast, escaping to avoid military disasters seems to have a glimmer of life.

"My lord, we all escaped from the same village. When we first came out, there were about thirty people. Along the way, we were hunted down by Qingtang barbarians, attacked by wild animals, ghosts and bandits... until now, There are less than half of the people left."

As the old man spoke, he couldn't help wiping away his tears.

The other survivors also looked sad.

There were only two younger children who didn't understand what the adults were mourning for. They took the dry food they were given and stuffed it into their mouths while feeding their mother who was holding them: "Mom, eat buns, Haven't eaten for many days."

Qin Shaoyou sighed secretly.

This world is really prosperous, and the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer...

After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Where are you planning to escape?"

The old man reported several place names: "We have relatives in these places, and we plan to go and join them."

Qin Shaoyou nodded, and asked Su Jianqing and Su Tingyu to help draw a few amulets and gave them to the group of people.

Although these amulets can't ward off evil spirits and avoid evil like Qin Shaoyou's amulets made of flesh-winged tiger fur before, so that ghosts don't dare to get close, they can also save these people's lives when they are in danger.

After knowing the function of the amulet, the group of refugees were very excited and thanked them again and again.

Qin Shaoyou waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. After eating, go to the campfire and have a good sleep. With us here, you don't need to worry anymore, you can relax and sleep. After dawn, I will arrange a few more people to escort You go to your relatives."

There are many refugees who escaped from the front line of Qingtang. Qin Shaoyou is just a trial household of the demon town, and even if he wants to manage it, he can't finish it.

But he can help the group in front of him and do what he can.

"Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord."

The group of refugees were overjoyed, they all felt that they had seen the hope of survival. After crying bitterly, they all wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Qin Shaoyou, but Qin Shaoyou stopped him with blood.

"You don't need to be too polite, let's all go to rest."

However, just as the group of refugees wanted to follow Qin Shaoyou's arrangement and go to sleep by the campfire, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Wait!"

Someone stopped talking.
