"It's okay, Xiao Ying. Let's go back.”
Luo Hao reached out his left hand and pulled Xiao Ying into his arms. He gently stroked Xiao Ying's hair with his palm.
He used this to comfort Xiao Ying, who was constantly feeling afraid.
Slowly, Xiao Ying, who was in Luo Hao's arms, stopped trembling.
After regaining his senses, he nodded.
Just like that, the two of them pushed the small wooden cart back home without a word.
Xiao Ying didn't mention the monster, so Luo Hao naturally wouldn't mention it either.
When he got home, Luo Hao immediately washed the black blood off his hands.
After that, he took out the dry sugar that had been dried today, divided it into different types, and cut it into cubes. Then, he began to cook the ginger soup.
Xiao Ying's body was actually a little weaker than girls of the same age.
He didn't have much nutrition in the past. It was only in the past year that his life began to return to normal. After a night of cold wind, his body was already freezing. If he didn't drink some ginger soup, it would be bad if he caught a cold.
"Drink some ginger soup before you sleep. Otherwise, what if you catch a cold?”
Luo Hao, who had prepared the ginger soup, handed the warm ginger soup to Xiao Ying, who was sitting beside the charcoal stove in the living room.
"Brother, what was that just now…"
"It shouldn't be a human…Brother, you can't be considered to have killed someone, right…"
Xiao Ying took the ginger soup and blew on the steam on it. After taking a small sip, she looked at Luo Hao.
"No, that thing is a monster.”
"Brother didn't kill anyone. Let's not tell anyone about this, okay?”
Before Luo Hao could answer, Xiao Ying looked outside the door nervously and whispered to Luo Hao.
With less knowledge, sometimes the direction of things in his heart would be more shallow.
Xiao Ying, who had been working hard to survive in the slums, knew a little about the laws of this world.
However, he also couldn't believe that such a monster existed. However, in his heart, at least Luo Hao was absolutely not in the wrong.
Luo Hao was just trying to protect her.
The reason why she didn't want Luo Hao to tell anyone was simple. She didn't want to encounter unnecessary trouble.
"I know. Hurry up and drink the ginger tea.”
"After drinking it, soak your feet in hot water and quickly go to sleep.”
Luo Hao looked at Xiao Ying's serious expression and couldn't help but smile.
They had lived together for many years, so they naturally understood what Xiao Ying meant.
He immediately promised Xiao Ying.
After all, Luo Hao didn't plan to tell anyone about this.
Luo Hao already had some different thoughts and ideas in his mind.
。。。。。。
At the same time, at the place where Luo Hao killed the monster.
A few people in gray appeared on the roof of a nearby shop.
In a flash, he jumped down from the roof and arrived beside the headless monster.
"I didn't expect such an expert to exist in such a small town.”
"Looks like he's an expert in physical attacks.”
One of the burly men in gray squatted down and touched the cracked ground with his palm.
Under the light of the lantern, one could see the surprise on this person's face.
"He shouldn't be in the same trade. Even the corpse of a lower rank ghost monkey can be exchanged for over a hundred taels of official silver in the Exorcist Hall.”
"If it was an exorcist in the same industry, he would definitely take the Ghost Monkey's corpse with him before he left.”
Hearing his companion's words, one of the gray-robed men carefully analyzed the surrounding environment and said.
"Captain is right. Could it be that some people from the aristocratic families came to this town by chance?”
A thin and weak female voice sounded.
"This is just a small town in a remote place. The possibility is not high.”
"Hurry up and clean up the scene. We still have to stay in the town for a few days anyway.”
"It's best if you can find that person. If you can't, then forget it.”
The leader shook his head and said to everyone.
The other gray-robed men immediately nodded and began to divide their work.
Some of them started to light torches to check the traces left behind in the surroundings.
Some of them took out small knives and started to shave something off the monkey's body.
。。。。。。
The next day, the sky lit up slightly.
Today, Luo Hao didn't bring Xiao Ying to set up a stall outside the market as usual.
Instead, it was after Xiao Ying was placed in the market.
She ran to the place where the accident happened yesterday alone.
Just as Luo Hao had expected, the sky had only just lit up when many people had already gathered around.
As they pointed at her, they kept discussing how many times this woman had been killed this month.
However, when he took a closer look, Luo Hao noticed something different from last night.
The body of the woman who was obviously killed was still there.
However, the monster's corpse was already gone.
The ground was still black, but there were no more corpses.
" The corpse is gone. I remember that the monster must have been killed last night…"
"Could it be that the yamen in the town have taken it away…"
Luo Hao looked at the pool of black blood on the ground and could not help but think to himself.
However, the arrival of a group of people immediately interrupted his thoughts.
A group of people in official uniforms pushed through the crowd and walked in front of the murdered woman.
After seeing the woman's strange death, the constables immediately frowned.
He placed the woman's body on the stretcher in disgust and covered it with a white cloth.
