"Master, there is a cultivator who said he can help us." Yun Su and the secret guards knocked on Shu Yaoyao's door, his tone full of joy.
Yun Su was still thinking happily in his heart: I have brought back a helper, and the master will definitely praise me.
"Well, since you're here, take them away and settle them down." Shu Yaoyao didn't even open the door for the two of them. A cold and distant voice came from the room.
"Okay." Yun Su responded obediently and was about to leave with the monks behind him.
The monk rushed to Yun Su and kept knocking on the door: "Master Shu, please come out and talk. I am from the Liang family."
When Shu Yaoyao heard the people from the Liang family, she seemed to remember something and the door suddenly opened.
The moment the door opened, Yun Su suddenly felt that he saw a flash of disappointment in his master's eyes.
"Sir, what brings you here? " Upon knowing that the other party was a member of the Liang family, Shu Yaoyao's tone was quite polite.
Without any hesitation, he knelt down towards Shu Yaoyao and said, "I am the secret guard sent by the Liang family to protect Master Ji. Just now, while trying to help your disciple save someone, Master Ji was accidentally captured by a monster. I beg Master Shu to help rescue him."
Hearing this, Shu Yaoyao seemed a little flustered and accidentally dropped the teacup in her hand.
"Ah-Yue was caught?"
Shu Yaoyao's voice couldn't stop trembling.
"Please help me, Master. The Liang family will reward you handsomely after the mission is accomplished." The secret guard Liang San was an honest man. Although he knew the twists and turns between Master Ji and Master Shu, saving people was a troublesome and laborious task, so he naturally had to promise the other party some benefits.
It's not good to let people waste their efforts.
Shu Yaoyao didn't say anything for a long time, but she was extremely flustered.
"Ask Master Shu for help. My brother has gone back to ask for reinforcements, and Liangzhou will send people soon." Liang San bent his body and did not move at all.
"Okay." After Shu Yaoyao finished speaking, he asked Yun Su to gather all the monks he brought with him.
She personally took Liang San to the scene of the incident.

Inside the cave.
The little girl watched the sky outside gradually darken, and her eyes changed from anticipation to fear.
Feeling that the little girl was trembling all over, Ji Yu couldn't help but stroke her back a few times and comforted her softly: "Little girl, are you okay? Is there anything wrong with your body?"
The little girl shook her head, then nodded, her voice unconsciously tinged with tears: "It's getting dark, they are coming over to choose someone."
Hearing the meaning in the little girl's tone, Ji Yu still asked with some confusion: "Choose someone? Who do you choose?"
The young woman holding the child nearby saw the little girl crying and couldn't help but scold her: "If you hadn't helped me comfort your brother that afternoon, we wouldn't have been captured by the demon."
Ji Yu looked at the way the two of them were getting along and asked curiously, "She is your mother?"
The little girl seemed frightened and answered with sobs: "Yes."
When the young woman heard this, she was like being touched on the reverse scale: "Who is your mother? Your mother is a short-lived ghost. I am not your mother. I am lucky to have given birth to my own sweet baby, unlike your mother who only has you, a dead girl."
The little girl felt sobbing and said in a wronged tone: "Uncle, let's hide quickly! The monsters will come to pick us soon. I have no relatives anyway, and being eaten is my fate. You are dressed so gorgeously, your family must be waiting for you to return."
The little girl didn't seem to have read many books, nor had she seen any interesting things. Ji Yu was wearing an ordinary cotton-padded jacket, but in her eyes, it was considered luxurious and rich.
"Little girl, you can go back alive." Ji Yu rubbed her head, and his tone was inevitably tinged with tenderness.
The woman next to him snorted coldly: "Even if you go back alive, your father will sell you. It's a waste of food for you to stay at home."
The light in the little girl's eyes suddenly dimmed.
"I shouldn't have come into this world." The little girl buried her head in her knees, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"You gossipy woman, why are you so fond of gossiping?" Ji Yu was a little annoyed, and his tone was inevitably a little unfriendly.
"If you want this money-loser, take it home and keep it as a pet." The woman looked Ji Yu up and down, her tone still asking for a beating.
If there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. Ji Yu was also very heartbroken about the little girl's experience.
"If you can get out safely, I'll take you back!" Ji Yu reached out to the little girl's back, noticed her extremely high talent, and couldn't help but make a suggestion.
"Is it okay?" The little girl had tears in her eyes and her tone was tinged with hope.
"What if I can take you out? When you become very powerful, will you repay or take revenge on your parents?" Ji Yu wanted to understand the character of this child.
The little girl shook her head again and again, and answered sincerely: "They have never treated me well, so there is no way to repay them. If I can really leave here, never seeing them again in this life will be the best revenge for them. I don't want to deliberately hurt anyone."
Ji Yu nodded, his eyes unable to stop showing admiration.
"What's your name?" Ji Yu asked again.
The little girl pulled Ji Yu's sleeve, her tone tinged with dependence: "My name is Daya."
"Daya is not a nice name, why not call her Juanshu?" Ji Yu stroked her head, his tone suddenly tinged with desolation.
"Then... can I call you daddy?" The little girl pulled Ji Yu's clothes, her tone full of pleading.
Ji Yu nodded, then took out the only thing he had from his pocket.
