dangerous night

Time turned to evening.

In the Yaosi of Luocheng Town, Xue Qingshan took the inventory report submitted by the arsenal and the spiritual room.

Seeing the long list of weapons, equipment and supernatural items listed above, he was dumbfounded.

After a moment of silence, Xue Qingshan patted the table and roared:

"Why did Qin Shaoyou take so many weapons and equipment and spiritual items? Who gave him this power? Is he going to investigate the case or go to war? Why didn't he just empty the arsenal and the spiritual room?"

The heads of the arsenal and the spiritual room lowered their heads and did not make a sound.

Who gave him the power? Who do you say gave him the power?

After scolding for a few words, Xue Qingshan raised his head and stared at the two of them, asking, "Why didn't you stop him then?"

"This..."

The people in charge of the arsenal and the spirit room were very embarrassed and didn't know how to answer this question.

It can't be said that Qin Shaoyou is holding the warrant you gave, and he is your brother-in-law. We dare not stop it, right?

Although this is the truth, they cannot tell it, nor dare to tell it.

A general flag who came to report on his work saw this scene and thought it was an opportunity to perform, so he took the initiative to ask Ying:

"Sir, do you want me to bring someone back to retrieve the weapons, equipment and spiritual items that Qin Xiaoqi and the others took away?"

"Um?"

Xue Qingshan frowned slightly, and glanced at this man out of the corner of his eyes.

This look is a little cold.

He put down the list in his hand, rubbed his temples, ignored the flattering general flag, and said to the person in charge of the arsenal and the spiritual room:

"Forget it this time. Qin Shaoyou will go to you to pick up things in the future. Don't give it to him first, show me the list, and let him take it away after I approve it."

"Yes!"

The person in charge of the arsenal and the spiritual room hurriedly nodded.

The general flag on the side couldn't help shivering.

He realized that he was probably flattering on the horse's leg, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous and wanted to remedy it, but he didn't know where to start.

And on the other side.

Qin Shaoyou and others, who were on their way, also encountered a crisis.

"Is this the station you were talking about?"

Qin Shaoyou raised his whip and pointed at the wasteland in front of him.

Aside from the half-human-high weeds, there is only a low, mutilated earth wall in this place.

The houses and courtyards that the inn should have were all gone.

Zhu Xiucai, who led the way, was also confused.

"It's right here. I lived here the year before, but what about the inn? Why isn't there anymore? Could it be abolished?"

Abolish the station? Good guy, aren't you afraid that the out-of-job courier will rebel?

Qin Shaoyou complained in his heart, then looked up at the sky.

The sun has set, the sky is beginning to darken, and it will not be long before night falls.

In this world, night means danger.

Especially outside the city.

Weird ghosts, hungry beasts, ferocious bandits and desperate refugees, etc., will all be ready to move under the cover of the night, looking for prey.

So if you spend the night outside the city, be sure to find a place with a courtyard wall.

In this way, in the event of danger, we can guard against the wall.

Sleeping in the wilderness often leads to a miserable death.

But on this wasteland in front of me, although there is a wall, there is only one side, and it is still a half-human-high remnant wall.

Use ass!

What's more, Qin Shaoyou also saw a lot of strange traces on this remnant wall.

I don't know if it was ghosts, beasts, or refugees and bandits.

"Are there any temples or villages around here?"

Qin Shaoyou withdrew his gaze from observing the sky and asked his subordinates.

"Sir, why don't we go to Wujiabao, it's not far from here, we should be able to arrive when the sky is completely dark." A strong man surnamed Wei suggested.

"Wujiabao? Where is that?" Qin Shaoyou asked.

Wei Lishi hurriedly introduced: "It's Wujia Village near here, Wubao built for self-repair..."

It turns out that in this season of demons and bandits, many Wubao were built all over the place.

Some of these Wubao were built by powerful families living outside the city, while others were built spontaneously by villagers of the same clan.

The purpose is the same, to guard against the scourge of demons, ghosts and bandits, and to protect themselves and survive.

Wujiabao is the same.

It's just that most of the Wu Forts, whether built by powerful families or by villagers of the same clan, are reluctant to accept outsiders, for fear that outsiders will bring them danger.

But Wujiabao is different. They are very willing to accept the caravans and travelers in the past and provide them with protection, so that they can have a relatively safe place to spend the night.

In the past few years, Wujiabao has also taken in many refugees, and its reputation has spread, and it has become a well-known family of good people. Even the government gave them a plaque of "Yizhongxiangbang". , as a reward and encouragement.

After listening to Wei Lishi's introduction, Qin Shaoyou turned his attention to Zhu Xiucai.

The latter nodded and said, "I have also heard of some deeds in Wujiabao. It is indeed as Old Wei said, it is a good family. It should be the best choice for us to spend the night with them."

"Then go."

Qin Shaoyou no longer hesitated, and pointed at Wei Lishi with his whip.

"You lead the way."

"Yes!"

Wei Lishi took the lead, riding his horse galloping ahead to lead the way, Qin Shaoyou and others followed closely behind.

When they arrived near Wujiabao, it was completely dark.

Although this journey went very smoothly, Qin Shaoyou, Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others still sensed danger.

In the darkness around, there are countless pairs of eyes, spying on them, making them horrified, and the whole process is on high alert.

They know very well that once the eyes hidden in the darkness find out that they are slack, then these unknown dangers will come out from all directions like sharks smelling blood, tearing them apart and devouring them.

Fortunately, Wujiabao is finally here.

Wujiabao under the night, brightly lit.

From a distance, there is an unreal feeling.
