Chapter 405 Chapter 405 Yuyu felt uncomfortable and went to find her father...
Even the ancestors’ manifestations would not appear like this, right?
Is there any other expert in Shangjing City?
Li Ye rolled and crawled to his feet.
I want to find out what exactly happened in Shangjing City.
Fortunately, the people from the Demon Suppression Division who were cleaning out the city of Shangjing have not yet dispersed.
They were overjoyed to see Lou Ling come back.
"Master Xiaolou! The evil spirit has been killed by His Majesty."
Lou Ling took a moment to react: "When did it happen?"
"Almost two hours ago."
The members of the Demon Suppression Division answered again, and they vividly described the scene of Su Wu slaying the evil spirit with one sword.
Not only did the image of Su Wu change in the minds of the common people in Shangjing City who had no contact with him, but the officials of the Demon Suppression Bureau who were originally loyal to Su Wu were now trembling with excitement.
It was not just the excitement of meeting an absolutely strong person.
Being in a high position, facing a threat that was not directed at him, he chose to take action himself to eliminate the scourge for the people.
No matter what Su Wu thought in his heart.
They all have their own understanding.
"Almost two hours ago?"
Li Ye gasped for breath.
"That thing runs really fast—"
"No, why was Your Majesty here at that time?"
Lou Ling was a little confused. He put his spear behind his back, with a look of bewilderment on his still young face.
Didn’t they agree on the action time being the latter half of the night?
That thing only took action in the second half of the night. This time it was purely an accident. Logically speaking, it would probably catch them off guard.
But an unexpected event happened on their side, and their actions perfectly matched those of the other party. Even the evil spirit that had been sealed for who knows how many years was killed by Su Wu.
Such evil spirits can only be in Su Wu's position. Only a monarch who has the ability to kill them can kill them. They are also born with luck and cannot be dealt with by ordinary people. The monarchs in the past did not have the ability to achieve such an outcome, so they could only let capable people in the court seal them.
However, Su Wu rarely encounters such a situation.
According to Su Wu, it was just bad luck for him, but this time it was really strange that he bumped into Su Wu right in front of him.
It's already midnight.
It was quiet all around, but compared to the previous night, there were some other sounds.
The officials of the Demon Suppression Bureau who dealt with the aftermath of the evil spirit's death have come to the end of their work. The people living nearby are unable to sleep after experiencing this. Many of them simply open a small crack in the window and look out.
"Hey? Master Xiaolou, what are you doing——"
"The children who were abducted before."
Lou Ling is also a child of eight or nine years old, but he is calm and experienced, and his words are very serious, which does not seem out of place.
"Is her master still in the palace?"
"Oh, the child has been rescued? Master Xiaolou, you guys must have worked hard on this trip. The child's adult should have been put to bed at the main compound of the Demon Suppression Division in the palace. Should we take the child in now, or...?"
"Take it back now."
Lou Ling took another look at the little girl who was crying breathlessly and looking for her parents in a daze.
The noise around became louder.
Many people who did not come out of the house looked at this scene in confusion.
They discussed it in low voices with their families.
"Look, isn't that someone's little girl? She was kidnapped and she came back?"
"Oh my god, it really is—"
"That's great, that's great. We've been neighbors for so many years. Seeing that couple crying like that is really heartbreaking."
The people were too busy taking care of themselves to hold out any hope for the safety of the abducted children.
But seeing the little girl standing there intact, crying and calling her parents in a low voice.
There were mixed feelings for a moment.
"That's all good now. His Majesty has killed the monster right in front of us, and little Ni'er is back. Everyone is happy. This is great—"
"Hey? It seems we're not the only ones awake. There's movement over there too."
"After this incident, who can sleep soundly? In my opinion, the rumors that Your Majesty rebelled to ascend the throne, slaughtered his own relatives to take the throne, and built massive projects that wasted the people's money and resources, all seem to be divisive rhetoric and are not true."
"But during that period, the court regularly pulled out many dead bodies, and there were many executions, even lingchi (death by slicing). This is not false."
"You are stupid. If these people are the ones who deserve to be killed, then His Majesty is not wrong, right?"
"We don't know who should be killed and who shouldn't be killed—but that man-eating monster should be killed—"
A small whisper of discussion fell into my ears.
Li Ye was still counting on his fingers in confusion.
He murmured in a low voice - "What kind of master is this? He has such ability. The fortune of the entire Dasheng Dynasty has begun to change."
But no matter how hard he calculated, he couldn't figure out anything.
He could only get up and follow Lou Ling into the palace.
The little girl's parents were still awake and crying bitterly in the room.
The demon-suppressing official guarding the gate was stunned when he saw Lou Ling coming back with the disheveled little girl, and quickly opened the door.
The little girl ran in.
"Dad, Mom!"
“Nannan!!”
"My dear...my dear—it's really my dear—"
The surroundings suddenly became noisy.
Lou Ling glanced at the sky and knocked gently on the door.
"Your Majesty, rest in peace."
The noise in the house suddenly became quieter.
Only then did Lou Ling withdraw his hand.
"Master Xiaolou, it's getting late. When will you rest? The room has been prepared for you."
Lou Ling nodded and waved his hand.
"No rush."
What else does Lou Ling want to say?
Then he heard the official next to him whisper, "Yes, you are not in a hurry, but Madam Lou asked her subordinates to tell Master Xiaolou that you still need to grow taller. If you don't sleep at night, you won't grow taller."
Building age: ...
Lou Ling looked up at the official and choked for a long time, unable to speak.
Long, no, tall.
Mom—you really are my dear mom, why are you still saying everything to others?!
Li Ye was still counting. Seeing Lou Ling walking in one direction with his head down, he asked subconsciously.
"Master Xiaolou, what are you doing?"
Lou Ling: "Sleep."
Grow taller
The palace on the other side.
The palace was so quiet that any noise could be heard far away.
Although they were not very close and were blocked by trees, the little guy sleeping next to Su Wu was startled and woke up for a moment in this extremely quiet night.
Mountain spirits like Xiao Jinyu have very sharp senses.
Xiaoyu was awakened, and he didn't even realize that he was woken up.
Lying blankly in the soft bedding, he slowly turned over.
Why?
Yu Yu is awake?
The little fish was sleeping on a small bed next to Su Wu's bed. This bed was a few centimeters lower than Su Wu's bed. The little guy climbed up slowly, and his clear big eyes could just look over the railing at Su Wu.
Noticing the cub's gaze.
Su Wu also opened his eyes in an instant.
He frowned, stood up, stretched out his hand, and covered the cub's ears.
Little Jinyu just looked at him, so soft and tender. It took him a long time to react: "Daddy—it's not dawn yet."
Yes.
Before daybreak, you're already lying beside your father's bed.
The palace guard knocked on the door cautiously: "Your Majesty?"
"What happened outside?"
Su Wu spoke in a sleepy and hoarse voice.
"Master Xiaolou and his men are back, bringing the abducted child with them."
Even the abducted child was brought back?
Su Wu also raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Everything that has happened these past few days—isn’t it a little too smooth?
Xiao Jinyu reacted slowly and tried to crawl onto the bed.
"What?"
Su Wu subconsciously pointed a finger at the cub's head.
The cub was slow to react. Even though its little head was held down, it still stubbornly climbed up twice. It kicked with its short legs but failed to get up. Then it reacted and stretched out its little hand to hold Su Wu's fingers.
"Daddy."
He spoke in a soft voice.
He yawned again slowly.
"Fish hurts—"
Wounds always hurt more at night.
The little fish had already fallen asleep, and it would have been fine if he had slept peacefully, but he woke up in the middle of the night.
The little fish felt uncomfortable because of the injuries that were recovering from it.
The little fish cub has already established the equation in his mind.
If you are uncomfortable, you want to be more comfortable.
If you want to feel more comfortable, come to daddy.
You will feel comfortable if you find your daddy.
So whenever Yu Yu feels that anything is wrong, she will stick with her daddy!
Su Wu couldn't understand Xiaoyu's train of thought for the time being.
But when he heard the little guy say that he was not feeling well, he subconsciously picked up the cub and watched the little guy snuggle into his arms.
Then he blinked his big eyes contentedly.
There was no sign of discomfort, and she seemed to want to crawl into his arms.
Su Wu was at a loss for words for a moment.
He simply checked the wound on the fish and determined that the discomfort was caused by the wound's healing process.
Su Wu was relieved, and before midnight he pulled up Zhang, the imperial physician, who had been busy all of a sudden and had fallen asleep as soon as he lay down, and went back to sleep.
Su Wu spoke to the outside of the door.
"Inform all civil and military officials that they will not attend the morning court tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The palace servant outside the door responded quickly.
After the inspection, Su Wu originally wanted to put the little guy back, but at this moment, Su Wu casually glanced to the side and saw the golden-red fish scales next to his pillow.
In the dark night, the golden-red fish scales emit a warm glow.
At this moment, Su Wu had some guesses as to why everything went so smoothly for him today.
He looked at the little cub in his arms again, and for a moment he didn't know what to feel. It was always a little subtle.
Not to mention the way the little guy plucked the fish scales from him without saying a word, Su Wu simply let the little guy lie in his arms.
He held his little hand, squeezed it, and then let go. The cub wanted to pinch it back, but Su Wu had already withdrawn his hand.
The little cub pinched nothing, stayed still for two seconds, and then went to find Su Wu's hand.
He is still dull and slow to react, especially when he is sleepy. He is a complete little dummy.
Su Wu suddenly laughed out loud.
