I wanted to embrace my master and return home

"Our Huang family invited the immortal master this time to avenge my son and settle this hatred. If this evildoer is not eradicated, both of us, husband and wife, will have trouble in our dreams. What if this monster still misses me? Son, what will we do if we take him away later!!"

Boss Huang said angrily, his face was full of worry, now the whole Huang Mansion is covered with Dao Talismans inside and out, for fear that something unclean will break in again.

Zhang Sirun looked at the circles of thin yellow talismans that fluttered with the wind on the door, and said seriously: "Those are altar purification talismans used when offering incense, and have nothing to do with driving away ghosts and preventing evil spirits."

"...Then, we were cheated?" The faces of the Huangs turned bad all of a sudden, and they were still a little bit embarrassed.

Zhang Sichen came out in time to make a rescue: "The cleansing altar talisman and the pushing talisman... have the same color, and it's normal to make mistakes occasionally. We haven't noticed any evil spirits in Boss Huang's house. I'll just replace it with the pushing talisman for you later."

"Oh, oh...thank you Immortal Master!" Boss Huang took out two bank notes from his sleeve, and handed them over with both hands with a smile: "Few Immortal Masters have worked hard."

"No need, these simple talisman papers are worthless, they're just a piece of cake." Zhang Sichen declined with a smile.

"I've heard that Tianfuzhige is the most upright. I saw it today, and it really lives up to its reputation. We, husband and wife, will definitely promote the reputation of Tianfuzhige, so that you can make more money! Take more assignments!" Mrs. Huang was full of praise.

Gu Mou said: "Ma'am, it's absurd, it doesn't have to be like this."

Several people asked some questions about the time and the basic route in Yinzhou City. In the early morning of the next day, they asked the Huangfu for a servant who knew the way and went out.

The three of Gu Mou first wandered around Yinzhou City, leaving half of his children to search in the east of the city, and the three of them went to the south of the city. According to the couple, their man'er was found in the gang of beggars in the south of the city.

When they arrived in the south of the city, they found that the beggars here were indeed different from those in the east of the city. Some of them looked weaker and walked slowly and feebly, but they didn't have the gray and defeated look on their faces.

Gu Mou walked towards the little beggar who was sitting on the ground beside the candied haws stand, begging and kowtowing, and wanted to ask him something, but the beggar was kowtowing to the passers-by, and kept saying, "Gentlemen, please give me some copper coins." Seeing a tall man in brocade clothes and black robes walking towards him, his face was full of evil spirits, the little beggar screamed in fright, knocked over the small bowl in front of him, picked up the copper plates scattered on the ground with his hands, and hurriedly Hide back.

Gu Mou: "..."

Does he look so fierce? ? ?

Gu Mou took another step forward, and saw the little beggar with disheveled hair suddenly knelt down with his face facing the ground, his whole body lying on the ground, trembling all over.He thought that someone was going to hit him, so he left the strongest back for the other party first, so that he would be less injured.

The little beggar was shaking like a sieve, and from the corner of his eye, he saw that the man squatted down in front of him instead of kicking him, so he looked up at him in surprise and fear.

Zhang Sirun bought a candied haws, and squatted in front of the little beggar with Gu Mou, and passed the candied haws to him with a smile. Compared with the sullen Gu Mou beside him, Zhang Sirun's gentle and soft appearance was like a sudden black cloud. A ray of sunshine.

The little beggar looked at the bunch of red candied haws, swallowed his saliva, raised his dirty little face, and said cautiously:

"Is... is it for me?"

"Yeah!" Zhang Sirun nodded, and said to him seriously: "Take it and eat."

The little beggar wiped his hands on his body before reaching out to pick up the bunch of candied haws. He moved very carefully, and deliberately avoided Zhang Sirun's fingers. The three of them took a closer look, and their expressions changed in unison.

The little beggar's outstretched hand was covered with black and purple scars left after healed chilblain, and what was even more frightening was that the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger were all broken off, coiled on the hand in a distorted shape, like a mass of sarcoma, very scary .

After the little beggar took the candied haws, he kowtowed suddenly: "Thank you, Master, for the reward!"

All three of them were taken aback by this unexpected kowtow, and took a small step back. Zhang Sichen smiled with difficulty, and stretched out his hand to support him.

"No...you don't have to kneel, you stand up first."

The little beggar shook his head, saying that he couldn't stand up, his leg had just been broken, and he lifted up the ragged corner of his robe to show them, only to find that one of his legs was bent in the opposite direction of the joint, as if he had been twisted alive of.

The old man who sells candied haws next to him sighed and interjected: "This kid has been here for the last month, and I heard that he can't get enough money, what he just said a few days ago... Boss, he broke a leg with an iron wrench. "

"Grandpa, do you know anything else?" Zhang Sichen asked hastily.

"I don't know, children here, don't say anything when you ask."

Zhang Sirun's eyes were already moist and hot, he looked at the little beggar and said angrily: "Boss, it's disgusting enough to make people beg on the street, why do you want to break other people's legs!"

"Because... because it looks more pitiful this way, kind-hearted gentlemen can give more money." The little beggar said.

Gu Mou frowned, and said, "Who is your boss, and where is your base when you handed over the money?"

"I...I can't say, I will be beaten to death!" The little beggar shook his head in fear, and said, "I'll return the candied haws to you, don't ask me again, okay..."

Zhang Sichen knelt down and touched his head, with distressed eyes, he said softly, "Eat it, what's your name?"

"Ah... Ah Si."

The little beggar was touched on the head and subconsciously hid for a while.

"Si, don't be afraid, my brother and the lord are very powerful! We are all cultivators, after you catch the boss, you don't have to beg like this!"

Zhang Sirun looked at him sincerely, and continued: "You must trust us, and even if you tell us, we won't tell others! You tell us, we will buy the whole candied haws stand for you!"

"The people in charge of this area have gone to eat, and they will...be back in a while." The little beggar seemed a little shaken when he heard the word candied haws.

"Pick him up and follow me."

Gu Mou asked the two of them to help the little beggar to a corner where no one was around, and placed a concealment barrier around the few people before he began to question the little beggar.

"Si, when were you kidnapped? Are you eight years old this year?" Zhang Sichen asked.

"I'm 12 years old this year." The little beggar replied.

"Twelve years old?!"

Obviously judging by the height of a beggar since childhood, he should be no more than seven or eight years old!It's so pitiful to be so skinny...

"Respect..." Zhang Sichen turned his head, but found that Gu Mou had lost his mind at some point, so he asked, "Master, what are you thinking?"

Gu Mou came back to his senses and shook his head. In fact, he didn't know what he was in a daze for. He suddenly asked without thinking: "How long is the drive from here to Qi Shiguo?"

Zhang Sichen was taken aback: "Counting the rest at night, it will take at least... five or six days, it's too far away."

"Oh..." Gu Mou smiled, shook his head, and continued to question Ah Si.

From what Ah Si said, he was not originally from Yinzhou. He was abducted when he was six years old. Now he can’t remember where his hometown is, and he can’t go back again, because every beggar in the city is actually managed by a special person. Every once in a while, the beggars in each city will be exchanged in turn, so the government can't control too much.

When he was first kidnapped, his ankle was trampled and he couldn't run fast. Because he was young and fair, he was very good at kowtowing and saying a lot of flattering words, and he could get a lot of money every day, so he made an exception. Exempted from the "benefit gift".

What is a gift to help?Even if a hand or foot is broken, there must always be a deformed place on the body. It is easier to win more sympathy when begging in the street, or if someone's leg is entangled in the street, the other party can't bear to fight each other, often in full view. Next, choose to pay for "charity".

However, in recent years, due to lack of food and clothing and lack of warmth, they have become like this. They are unkempt all day long, and the money they ask for is not as much as before. So a few days ago, their right leg was folded back by their boss. Twist it into this shape, throw it on the street and continue begging, saying that if you can't get any more money, you will cut off your two arms, which looks even more pitiful.

When the three of them heard these words, their expressions were very heavy. Zhang Sichen grabbed his younger brother's hand. His parents died when he was young, and he was penniless and had nowhere to go. He also wandered with his younger brother for a while. Fortunately...

At that time they wandered all the way from Yingzhou to beg for food to Xijing. After the soles of Zhang Sirun's shoes were worn out, he carried his younger brother on his back and continued walking. Finally, he found a breakfast shop that was willing to take them to work. Yuanhua Immortal Venerable, appointed by Xiujiepao, found out that he had a seventh-grade spiritual root in his body, and he was a natural talent for cultivating immortals. He felt sorry for the two of them in their miserable lives, so he took them to the Pavilion of Tianfu.

And Gu Mou has never suffered from firewood, rice, oil and salt since he can remember. Hearing what this little beggar said today, he suddenly realized that some poor people may not only suffer from hunger, but also even more terrible physical pain. something he never knew...

Ah Si ate half a bunch of candied haws, and continued, when he first came to Yinzhou City a month ago, he was transported from another city like other little beggars, and he was only familiar with the south of the city.He remembered that during the few days when he was still on the road, the boss and the others abducted four or five children, two of them were very disobedient and always wanted to escape, one ran away, and the other girl was caught on the street, The boss explained to the onlookers that his child stole something and lost his temper, and brought him back with a smile. When the little girl came back, the little girl cried and bit the boss. The boss was furious and took a wooden stick as thick as an arm. It was a stick to the back of the girl's head.

"That girl...how is it?" Zhang Sirun's eyes were red, and he held his breath and asked.

The little girl didn't die, but just passed out for two days. When she woke up, she couldn't see her eyes and was deaf in one ear. Continued on the road, and then no one dared to run away anymore. After arriving in Yinzhou City, everyone was very scared. There was a pretty girl in the team, who looked about twelve or thirteen years old. The boss took her out, it should be It was sold to a brothel, and a girl of this age would get a lot more money if she sold it directly to a brothel to pick up customers than if she sold it to a brothel.

Zhang Sirun's face was covered with tears, he wiped it with his sleeve, Gu Mou asked in a hoarse voice:

"In your team, is there a little boy, about five or six years old, wearing a blue jacketed robe with a lock around his neck, very handsome."

"It seems... yes! Is it a golden lock?"
