Master Wei and his men took the initiative to avoid the situation.

Shu Xiyao looked at Wei Ye and others with sharp eyes.

If it was before, he would have thought that the other party was just an ordinary martial artist.

But now the other person was holding four children in gorgeous clothes in his arms, so he couldn't help but take a closer look.

After all, the four children looked out of place with the five big men. They looked neither like their father nor their guards. Instead, they looked like prisoners who had kidnapped the children.

Moreover, based on his many years of experience of luxurious life, he knew that the clothes the child was wearing were definitely not something that an ordinary wealthy businessman could afford. If someone could afford such expensive clothes, it would be impossible for him to dress his guards like rough men.

Even the Jinyiwei who were with him felt that there was something wrong with Wei Ye and his men.

Shu Xiyao took a step forward.

Wei Ye and the others took a step back cautiously.

At this moment, Bai Ze raised his hand and pointed at the courtyard in front and said, "Uncle, the courtyard in front is where the human traffickers and the children they abducted live. Please rescue them."

Shu Xiyao and the Embroidered Uniform Guards were slightly stunned.

Wei Ye and the others also looked at Bai Ze in surprise.

Shu Xiyao glanced at the large courtyard in front of him, then looked at Bai Ze and asked bluntly, "Are you also abducted children?"

Wei Ye and the others felt nervous.

They could feel that the martial arts of Mr. Jun in front of them was definitely better than theirs, and he was also a Jinyiwei, definitely not someone they could afford to provoke.

Bai Ze replied: "No, the people who hold us are our guards."

Wei Ye and the others were surprised again.

This was a good opportunity for the children to escape, but they didn't.

Should they say the child is smart or stupid.

"real?"

Shu Xiyao didn't quite believe it.

The child even felt that Wei Ye and the others threatened him, which was why he didn't dare to speak.

"Really." Baihu and Hun Dun nodded.

Seeing that the child was not afraid and looked extremely excited, Shu Xiyao gradually let down his guard.

"Walk."

He led his men to rush to Wen Niang's house and subdued her and the others.

Wei Ye and his men, who had not yet walked far, heard the screams.

Master Wei looked at Bai Ze and said, "You could have left with them just now."

Bai Ze said, "It's not fun to leave with them."

If they go back with Shu Xiyao, they will meet their mother, and then there will be no fun to play with. They may even be sent back to the capital.

Master Wei laughed out loud: "Yes, we will take you to have fun, let's go."

His men said, "Strange, we clearly pressed the child's mute point, how come the child can still speak?"

Master Wei paused and said, "Did you press their mute points?"

His men must have nodded.

Master Wei narrowed his eyes and stared at the child.

The four children gave him an innocent look in return, instantly dispelling his doubts.

Master Wei said, "Press their mute points again."

"yes."

The men pressed the children's mute acupoints again.

Master Wei asked the children, "Can you still speak?"

Baihu and Hun Dun said in unison: "No more."

Bai Ze: “…”

Master Wei and others: "..."

Master Wei's subordinates speculated, "Master Wei, do you think their acupuncture points are different from those of ordinary people? For example, other people's mute points are on the left, but theirs are on other places."

"If it's really as you said, then isn't it really against the will of heaven? Others will never be able to find their real acupuncture points and press their acupuncture points."

Baihu was curious: "What is a killer?"

"I will explain this matter later. I will take you back to see the master now."

Master Wei was worried that the Jinyiwei would doubt their identities again, so he quickly used Qinggong to return to their branch hall.

Before he even entered the main house, he excitedly said, "Master, we found four good seedlings."

"Oh." Mr. Wei's master responded lacking interest.

Seeing that his master had a sullen face, Master Wei asked cautiously, "Master, what happened?"

The master said angrily, "All the food in the kitchen has been stolen. I sent someone to buy food, but he hasn't come back yet."

Master Wei asked, "Master, have you not eaten anything since yesterday?"

"I only drank water." The master rubbed his brows and changed the subject, asking: "What good seedlings did you bring back?"

"A good seedling that only comes once in a century."

Master Wei was particularly excited when talking about this: "They have excellent bones and their acupuncture points are also different from those of ordinary people."

The master finally became interested: "Bring them in."

"Okay." Master Wei was about to ask his men to bring the child in when he heard someone outside shouting urgently, "Master, it's bad. All the food stalls and restaurants are closed because people are stealing food. The vegetables in the market have been sold out, and the price of vegetables has increased fivefold, but we can't even buy half an ounce of vegetables even if we spend ten times the price."

The master frowned: "Do you know the reason?"

"Recently, a monster appeared in the Five Cities. Not only does it have a big appetite, but it can also escape underground. No one has been able to catch it, causing food prices to rise."

"We have no extra food in our branch hall." The master ordered Master Wei: "You should go to the nearby town to buy rice."

"yes."

Not only could Lord Wei and his men not buy food, but even the Duwei Mansion couldn't buy food.

What is strange is that the monster ate all the food outside and did not come to the Duwei Mansion.

The Duwei Mansion had surplus food to support the Jinyiwei, but it was only grain, without any vegetables to go with the rice.

Mu Nanjin looked at the white rice in front of him and frowned: "Where are the vegetables?"

[You just received over a million taels of silver, but now you are so poor that you can't even afford food? ]

"Food?" Captain Liu snorted coldly, "They were all eaten by the monsters. We are lucky that we still have food to eat, but the others don't even have food to eat."

Mu Nanjin frowned even more tightly: "Has the food in the whole city been eaten up?"

[Could it be that Taotie has come to Wucheng? ]

Mu Nanjin and Thunder Hammer looked at each other.

“Is it Taotie?”

Thunder Hammer shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

Mu Nanjin opened the news and gossip, but there was no information about the five children.

[If it really is Taotie, Bai Ze should have stopped him from doing anything wrong. ]

[Maybe it's not Taotie, but some other monster. 】

Mu Nanjin used his spiritual sense to check the five cities, but still found nothing.

[Strange, strange. I didn't see any monsters.]

Little did she know that Bai Ze had already anticipated that she would use her spiritual sense to check the five cities, and immediately set up a barrier to block her spiritual sense from checking.

At this moment, Taotie was hiding underground and sleeping.

In his sleep, he also dreamed that a lot of food was flying in front of him.

He turned over, patted his stomach, burped and said, "I'm so full."

After being in the mortal world for such a long time, I finally had a full meal and had a good sleep.

"Chaos, White Tiger, where are we going next?"

He asked in a daze but got no response. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up quickly, "By the way, where are Bai Ze and the others?"

It seemed like he hadn't seen them for a while.
