After the funeral, Lin Xiaoman spent another two days selling fixed assets and paying severance pay to the servants.
After all the follow-up matters were dealt with, on a sunny morning, Lin Xiaoman brought his shadow demon brothers, a group of twelve people, rode on horses, and left Harris in a very ostentatious manner as demon hunters.
The maps of this era were so simple, like abstract paintings, but it didn't matter, she had a detailed world map sent to her by Butler Xiaobai.
On the surface, he relied on the sun to determine the direction, but in fact, he looked at the map in the system, walked and stopped, and it took Lin Xiaoman two days to arrive in East.
After arriving near the town of East, Lin Xiaoman contacted Long Jiujiu in the group and went directly to find Long Jiujiu, a small landlord who owned a manor and land in the suburbs of East.
When starting the mission, Shao Qi had obviously chosen carefully and chose an original owner with a very simple mission for Long Jiujiu.
Long Jiujiu's original owner was called Sanya, a twenty-year-old young man with a fair European face and flaxen curly hair. He looked particularly cute because of his young face.
This time, Long Jiujiu finally became a wealthy man. Sanya's father was very rich, but a few months ago, his wealthy father passed away, leaving Sanya with a large inheritance. Then, this unlucky boy was murdered by his stepmother, who, along with her unrelated stepbrother, murdered him for his wealth. Before dying, he learned the truth: his father had been murdered by their combined efforts!
Long Jiujiu's mission is very simple: investigate the truth, make public the fact that her stepmother and stepbrother poisoned her stepfather, and let them receive the punishment they deserve.
Given the tight deadline, Long Jiujiu felt perfectly comfortable fabricating a story out of thin air! It's easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of something, especially since murder was a fact.
Based on the evidence, Long Jiujiu sent his stepbrother and stepmother to jail.
Lin Xiaoman came at the right time. Tomorrow at noon, she would be able to watch a hanging.
The next day, after morning exercise and breakfast, Lin Xiaoman and Long Jiujiu took a carriage to the town of East, which was just 2 kilometers away.
It was still early before the execution, so the two of them wandered around the town, fully displaying their shopaholic spirit and buying a lot of things.
Whatever you like, what is pleasing to the eye, what is practical, what is special...buy them all!
As a small S, Lin Xiaoman cannot use the space in this SS world, but it doesn’t matter. He will buy a lot of them first and store them in Long Jiujiu’s space.
Hey, she also has SS world supplies!
The sun was shining brightly, and around eleven o'clock, the two men rushed to the execution place.
The execution site was located in the north of town, in a busy, bustling area. Gossip was human nature, and by the time the two arrived, a large crowd had already gathered around the area.
As for Xingtai, the temporary platform was still empty at this time.
After waiting for a while, the knight guards led the way and escorted the prisoner, and East's executioner personally arrived at the execution ground.
First, the leader gave a speech. The executive officer exaggerated the federal government's idea of equality for all, praised the federation, and then expressed his disgust for the prisoners' murderous behavior. He then gave a lecture on the importance of abiding by the law, and finally, used the deterrent effect of killing a chicken to scare the monkey.
Execution!
The vicious stepmother and stepbrother of Long Jiujiu's original owner, Sangya, were taken to Xingtai, put on a noose, kicked on a stool... and soon died.
"Ha, Uncle Shao, I have completed my hard target!" Long Jiujiu announced loudly in the group.
Shao Qi: "Got it. I'll be at your place around 4pm, and then we'll go to Hexia Village after dinner."
Lin Xiaoman: "What's going on in Hexia Village?"
Shao Qi: "I haven't found the monster yet. The people in the village are like they've smoked marijuana. If we don't deal with it quickly, they will die in a few days."
Lin Xiaoman: "Is there a mirror?"
With the experience of the Shadow Demon, Lin Xiaoman guessed that all the monsters were the same, running out from the big bronze mirror or something else. As long as he found that thing, which was the demon-sealing device, and dripped blood to recognize the owner, he could kill the monster.
Of course, this is just her guess, and it is unknown whether the monsters follow this template.
Shao Qi: "I just took a quick look and I'm not very clear about the details."
Although he is two levels higher than the world, as a guy who has been kicked out twice, Shao Qi is on the blacklist of the Heavenly Dao, so he cannot hang around for too long in his soul state.
The world is so big, and it is naturally impossible for Shao Qi, who is busy collecting big data, to observe a place in detail.
Xiaobai Butler's database has stored hundreds of suspected monster appearance locations, also known as strange spots, but the situation at each strange spot is unknown and requires in-depth investigation.
Shao Qi: "I'll have Xiaobai post the relevant data and some pictures in the group for you two to take a look."
Lin Xiaoman: "Okay."
Long Jiujiu: "Oh!"
Xiaobai Butler sent some information in the group. It was not detailed, with a text description of less than a thousand words and a few pictures of Hexia Village.
While riding the carriage back to the manor, Lin Xiaoman carefully reviewed the information about Hexia Village, a small village near the river. Based on the number of houses on the village overview map, it suggested a population of around three to four hundred. However, the images showed very few villagers. Even under the blazing sun, few people could be seen in the fields. The few villagers who appeared in the photos were sallow and gaunt, listless, like an internet addict who'd been spending a month online.
After looking left and right, Lin Xiaoman gave up because he couldn't see anything special except a person who looked like a x-addict. He knew that the monster would appear in due time anyway.
After returning to the manor, Lin Xiaoman dressed simply and directed his younger brothers to carry the equipment without any psychological burden.
Torches, fuel, shovels, spears, bows and arrows... Lin Xiaoman was ready to take anything she could think of.
The humanoid minions were influenced by the Shadow Demon, and even during the day, they obeyed Lin Xiaoman's orders. Whatever she said was the truth, and Lin Xiaoman could use them very easily.
Before four o'clock, Long Jiujiu received the news of Shao Qi's arrival in the group, so he went out to pick him up, and Lin Xiaoman sat down and waited in the restaurant.
Because the manor was too big, it took a quarter of an hour for Long Jiujiu and Shao Qi to come in together.
Shao Qi’s original owner was also a tall man with long legs, but it was obvious that he was not Jingcha this time.
Because Shao Qi had already said in the group that his task was ok, Lin Xiaoman did not ask any more questions.
There was no need for acting. Long Jiujiu acted as the middleman and went through a perfunctory introduction process. The two of them were acquainted. Then, with a grand gesture of his hand, Long Jiujiu announced, "Dinner is served."
The servants brought out all kinds of delicious food.
You must eat before working!
