In Mianyuan County.

In a hotel room facing the street.

A few people were standing behind the window, watching the lively scene on the street in the distance with cold eyes.

The inn they are in is a block away from the route that Qin Shaoyou and others will take from the city gate to return to Zhenyaosi Yamen. situation.

At this moment, they happened to see Qin Shaoyou passing by outside the alley.

Seeing how popular Qin Shaoyou was, one of them couldn't help but snorted coldly: "This kid named Qin is quite good at inviting people's hearts."

The person next to him nodded in agreement: "Isn't it? He also made a Wanmin umbrella. Hmph, I don't know where the people were forced to give it to him."

The few words they said seemed to disdain Qin Shaoyou, but there was a strong sour taste in their tone.

Regardless of whether the Wanmin Umbrella Qin Shaoyou is holding is real or not, the love these people in the county have for him is real and cannot be faked.

Envious and jealous, someone said: "When we came to Mianyuan County, this kid surnamed Qin ran out to inspect the towns, and I don't know if he is hiding from us. But now that he is back, we will Keep an eye on him, and if you find anything, report it immediately."

The rest of the people nodded immediately, and discussed the plan to follow Qin Shaoyou.

But what they didn't know was that at this moment, in the next room, Zhu Xiucai, whom Cui Yougui had been missing, was holding a special wiretapping tool and eavesdropping on their secret discussion.

Ever since he read Zuo Qianhu's letter, Qin Shaoyou has been extra cautious, always on guard against someone coming to watch him.

Although Zuo Qianhu was in the front and attracted most of the attention, but he not only participated in the elimination of the corpse king, but also played a big role in it, even if Zuo Qianhu helped cover it up, it was hard to guarantee Will be noticed and suspected by interested people.

The other party may not know what role he played in it, what secrets and information he knew, but this did not delay sending a few people to monitor and investigate him.

So after leaving Shuanggui Junzhai, Qin Shaoyou has always turned on the three talents of eyesight, hearing and nose.

Although doing so consumes blood, Qin Shaoyou doesn't care.

His current blood energy is definitely one of the best in the same realm, and he can afford it.

Even when he returned to Mianyuan County, Qin Shaoyou did not stop these three talents. As a result, he was immediately aware of the prying eyes of these people, and then quietly sent Zhu Xiucai to come over to check.

After a while, Zhu Xiucai stopped eavesdropping, and muttered in a low voice: "My lord must have been a dog in his previous life, and he must have been a hunting dog, and his nose is too good. Compared with him, the monk and the genius doctor were a little negligent, and let the mouse slip away." I entered the city, but I haven't noticed it yet..."

Speaking of this, he glanced at the gathering at his feet, looked up at his several Qingji like a silly roe deer, and said half admonishing and half threatening: "What I just said, don't take it away." Go out and yell, especially the sentence I compared adults to hunting dogs earlier, if you tell me, I won’t tell you stories in the future.”

Several Qingji nodded repeatedly.

Besides they like to join in the fun, they also like to listen to books and stories. Zhu Xiucai has read a lot of idle books and made up stories.

If it wasn't for this, the Qingji people would not bother to respond to Zhu Xiucai's threat.

But these Qingji just nodded, but didn't speak.

It's not that they don't want to speak, but that they can't—their mouths are covered with something similar to a mask, making them unable to speak or speak.

This is a magic weapon specially made for Qingji.

Although little elves like Qingji performed well on patrol, they just had a wrong mouth—every time they found something, they would yell loudly, and the whole city could hear it.

Under such circumstances, those ghosts who are discovered will often be frightened and run away immediately.

But the people in the city, when they heard Qingji's yelling at the beginning, they hurriedly avoided it.

But in recent days, relying on the support of the night watchman, after hearing Qingji's yelling, the people not only did not hide, but also ran to watch the fun in groups, which greatly affected the work of the night watchman.

Monk Ma and Shan Daonian reminded Qing Ji many times, but to no avail.

Because it is the nature of Qingjis to like to yell just like they like to join in the fun, and it is more difficult to make them shut up and not yell than to kill them.

After knowing this situation, Zeng Cong designed and built such a magic weapon in the shape of a mask, so that Qingji can wear it when they go out to perform tasks.

In this way, no matter how much Qingji shouted behind the mask, the sound could not be transmitted.

After Zhu Xiucai received the task from Qin Shaoyou, he just got out of the crowd when he was bumped into by these Qingji.

Zhu Xiucai originally wanted to get rid of them, but after thinking about it, with Qingji by his side, maybe he could help, so he brought them here.

And at this moment, these celebrations really came in handy.

Zhu Xiucai said to them: "I'm going to report the situation here to the adults now. You guys stay here and continue to monitor the people in the next room and listen to their movements..."

Before Zhu Xiucai could finish speaking, these Qingjis nodded repeatedly, indicating that there was no problem.

In the eyes of Qingji, this monitoring task is fresher and more interesting than patrolling.

Seeing this, Zhu Xiucai couldn't help but raised his brows slightly, and said seriously: "Don't bother to have fun, you have to be serious with me, and you must not disturb those people in the next room. Otherwise, the jar of snake wine that the adults brewed , you don’t want to drink anymore, and I won’t tell you any more stories. I will tie you up, plug your ears, and take you to Goulan Wasi, so that you can only see the storyteller’s mouth move, but can't hear what they're saying."

Fuck so ruthless!

When several Qingji heard this, Qiqi's eyes widened.

They rode on bamboo horses, waving their arms at Zhu Xiucai in protest.

That is to say, they couldn't make a sound with masks on, otherwise, at this moment, Zhu Xiucai's ears would have been blown up.

After all, Qingji's favorite thing to do, besides watching the excitement, is to drink and listen to stories.

Zhu Xiucai wants them to be unable to drink wine, listen to stories, or even become a scene in the eyes of other Qingji, so it's no wonder they are happy.

However, Zhu Xiucai was not intimidated by their protests.

After threatening, he gave another encouragement: "As long as you can keep an eye on those people in the next room and not be noticed by them, I will help you to ask the adults for the next time you drink snake wine~ lightnovelpub.net~ I can drink more, and I can even make some appetizers for you.”

Hearing that there is a reward, these Qingji immediately stopped making trouble, and they all patted their chests to say that there is no problem, and they will definitely perform the task well.

Zhu Xiucai was still a little worried, but at the moment, only these few Qingji could be used, so he planned to go back quickly, and after reporting the situation to Qin Shaoyou, he would bring a few confidants over to replace the group of Qingji.

After giving some instructions, Zhu Xiucai quietly slipped out of the guest room.

At this time, the boss and the staff in the inn all ran to welcome Qin Shaoyou and the others, and no one noticed Zhu Xiucai's entry and exit at all.

Of course, Zhu Xiucai's own concealment ability is also quite powerful.

And not long after Zhu Xiucai left, a few more Qingji came to this inn.

They came here on patrol, sensed the presence of companions in the inn, and ran over to watch the excitement.

Although their mouths were blocked, they still barely figured out the mission of their companions here by relying on gestures with their little hands.

So they all became excited, and wanted to sneak into the next room to see what the people under surveillance looked like.

As a result, as soon as he revealed his intention, he was surrounded by his companions, held him down and beat him up.

The newcomer Qing Ji expressed his confusion and didn't understand why he was beaten.

Qing Ji, who was here before, gestured to tell them: If you can't go there, you will beat them.

As for why, I didn't say anything, I was afraid that these new Qingji would stay and compete with them for credit and wine.

Although I don't understand why, the newcomers of Qingji have remembered this matter.

They were not in a hurry to leave, they stayed here, and when another batch of Qingji patrolled here, they rushed up and beat them up, regardless of whether the new Qingji would go to the next door...
