Chapter 69
"What's not like?"
"What is he talking about?"
"I don't know. Let's take it away first."
Several black shadows were gurgling and moving closer and closer to Ming Qiao.
Ming Qiao was not afraid of their approach.
"Who are you?"
Ming Qiao blinked and asked them.
Several dark shadows were stunned by the question.
Mingqiao's little hand touched the storage ring, and the expression on her little face showed some hesitation.
There doesn't seem to be any heart-eating demon among these things.
He didn't really want to catch them.
What if the Mind Eater is nearby? It would be bad if he alerted the enemy when he tried to catch them.
"Who do you care who we are, kid? It's your bad luck to meet us."
Ming Qiao shook his head: "I'm not unlucky."
"Don't talk nonsense to him, take him away!"
"Yes, let's go."
The black shadows didn't want to communicate with Ming Qiao. They chattered and rushed towards Ming Qiao.
Ming Qiao: “Alas.”
Ming Qiao had no choice but to use the Demon Binding Rope given by his senior brother to lock up all the black shadows.
These black shadows are all demons, but they are not powerful ones.
Ming Qiao locked them up and handed them to his senior brother to put away.
He raised his little face and asked hesitantly, "Can we still catch the Heart Eater tonight?"
"have no idea."
Although Changfeng caught many demons, he didn't catch many demons whose names were high up on the Hundred Demons Chart.
Demons of this level are not easy to catch.
"Let's try our luck. We'll go back after a few more turns."
Changfeng touched Mingqiao's head and said, "You go to sleep then, and I'll let Changmeng come out to continue looking."
"good."
Ming Qiao really likes to fish for demons with his own body, which makes him feel very involved.
However, when Senior Brother Changfeng asked him to go back to bed early, he obeyed.
Brother Guoguo and Senior Brother Yunze both said that children should go to bed early and get up late, which is beneficial for their growth.
He really wants to grow taller!
After walking around the suburbs for a few more times, Ming Qiao ran into two stray kittens, a small snake crawling out of the grass, and a pair of young wild mandarin ducks.
Of course, when he saw the little wild mandarin duck, before he could curiously stick his head out to take a look, Senior Brother Changmeng rushed out, covered his mouth urgently, and carried him away in a hurry.
The cub that was carried away flapped its short legs in panic, and couldn't even shout.
Chang Meng carried the cub all the way to an open space far away from the grass.
He put the cub down and asked in shock, "Qiao Qiao, you didn't see anything just now, did you?!"
Ming Qiao was not feeling comfortable at all as he was being carried. He glared at Senior Brother Chang Meng with his round eyes and his small face slanted.
"I wanted to see it, it's all my fault, Senior Brother, you took me away!"
When Chang Meng heard that he didn't see it, he immediately felt relieved.
"Phew, luckily you didn't see it. I was really scared to death."
Chang Meng had no intention of asking for forgiveness from his son. He was still feeling lucky that he had run so fast.
Changfeng and You Qing also followed.
As soon as Ming Qiao saw You Qing, he rushed over to complain.
Unexpectedly, You Qing rubbed his head and actually spoke for Senior Brother Chang Meng: "Senior Brother Chang Meng is doing this for your own good."
"What happened just now...is not something a child can watch."
You Qing slowed down a step and he heard some sounds.
He felt that these sounds would pollute Mingqiao's ears.
Therefore, Senior Brother Chang Meng did the right thing this time.
"Okay."
When Ming Qiao heard his senior brother and brother say this, he gave up the idea of going over to see him.
"What do we do now?"
He asked, "Are you still looking?"
"Let's not look for it now. Let me take you back to rest first."
"OK."
On the way back, Mingqiao was carried back.
His little body lay in his senior brother's arms, and before they reached the charity center, he had fallen asleep with his head tilted.
There was a room in the Charity Bureau, which was for Ming Qiao and You Qing to live in, and the other brothers were all squeezed into another room.
"Xiao You, look after Qiao Qiao while we go outside and look for him."
The mind-eating demon has harmed many people and committed numerous crimes.
Even if the Lintian Sect was not doing this for Ming Qiao, they would still hang a task sign in the Deacon Hall to kill the Heart-Eating Demon.
It is their duty to slay demons and save the people.
A few brothers were wandering around outside, and when they saw homeless children who had not yet been to the orphanage, they would take them away.
For three days in a row.
Ming Qiao didn't catch any demons, but he and his fellow brothers caught a lot of kids.
They picked up almost all the unwanted children in the city.
Among these kids, there was one who bullied Ming Qiao in the past.
When Ming Qiao picked him up, he was silent all the way.
When he arrived at the Salesian Bureau and saw Ming Qiao turning around to leave, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you going to hit me?"
Ming Qiao: “?”
Ming Qiao was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
He looked at the child in tattered clothes, with his head lowered, waiting to be beaten. After thinking for a moment, he walked over and pushed the child down.
"alright."
After Ming Qiao pushed the man down, he said contentedly, "Now we are even!"
The child who was pushed to the ground by Ming Qiao got up. Instead of being angry, he looked relieved.
He didn't speak to Ming Qiao anymore and followed the adults from the Charity Bureau to check in.
Although the disciples of Lintian Sect are low-key, many people in the city know them after the incident at the Charity Bureau.
Maybe because his whereabouts were exposed, Mingqiao, the little fat bait, was no longer useful.
He sat on the stool depressed, feeling a little frustrated about his loss of appeal.
"Brother, is Qiao Qiao not tasty?"
Mingqiao even took a bath these days and made herself smell delicious.
If it wasn't so cold at night, he would have wanted to roll up his sleeves and trouser legs to show his white and tender arms and legs.
“Jojo is delicious.”
You Qingwai coaxed Ming Qiao: "It's the Heart Eater who is afraid of Qiao Qiao and doesn't dare to eat Qiao Qiao."
"The Heart Eater is also very powerful."
Ming Qiao listened to his senior brother talk about the power of the fruit-eating demon. He looked up and thought for a few seconds before coming to a conclusion: "Maybe he is timid and afraid of being caught by his senior brother."
"It's possible."
You Qing glanced outside and saw that several of his fellow brothers had not returned yet.
In the past few days, although the senior brothers did not use Qiao Qiao to lure out the Mind Eater, they were able to determine through clues that the Mind Eater was in the city and had not run away from the city.
From the first day, Senior Brother Changfeng set up the formation.
The entire city, including the suburbs, is within the barrier.
With this barrier in place, the Mind-Eating Demon is like a turtle.
They just need to be patient and catch the turtle in the jar.
As the sun was setting and the brothers had not returned yet, You Qing decided to take Ming Qiao out for dinner without waiting for them.
As soon as they got up, someone ran in from outside.
"You Qing, someone from the You family is here again, please go home."
"They also invited Qiao Qiao."
These days, when Ming Qiao was busy fishing for demons, You Qing was also discovered by the You family.
Mr. You sent people to invite You Qing back home several times.
You Qing didn't respond once.
He was about to refuse again this time, but the person who came to inform him said, "Mrs. You is here too, she's at the door."
Mrs. You and her people were standing at the door. Since she didn't see You Qing, she didn't plan to go back.
You Qing also knew this.
He looked at Mingqiao and wanted Mingqiao to wait here.
But Mingqiao didn't wait.
Mingqiao took his hand and went with him.
They walked to the door and saw Mrs. You waiting outside.
Mrs. You was well-maintained and had a beautiful face that was very attractive. When she saw You Qing coming out, she instantly burst into tears.
"You Qing, why don't you even go home?"
Mrs. You shed tears and came to hold You Qing's hand.
You Qing was so disgusted by her that he frowned and stepped back.
Mrs. You turned a blind eye to his disgust and continued to pull him along.
"Your father has been ill recently, and he misses you very much."
"You Qing, please go back and see your father."
"As long as you can come back, I will do anything for you."
There was a lady who acted like a loving mother and was addicted to acting at the door.
You Qing watched her perform, and after a while, he spoke.
"As long as I come back, you can do anything?"
You Qing repeated this sentence, and a sneer appeared on his gloomy face: "Okay, if you kneel down and beg me, I will consider whether to go back with you."
Madam You: “…”
Mrs. You just wanted to suppress him with filial piety.
But I never expected that this little bastard was not afraid of giving people a chance to talk about him.
"Why? You can't do this?"
You Qing looked mocking: "Next time you want to act, remember to go to the troupe first—"
Before You Qing could finish his words, Mrs. You gritted her teeth and knelt down in front of him.
"You Qing, I beg you, go see your mother."
She knelt down in order to destroy You Qing's reputation.
You Qing watched her kneel down and admired her calmly for a long time.
Someone passing by the door whispered that he was unfilial.
You Qing seemed not to hear these words.
He didn't have any unusual reaction, and Ming Qiao, who he was holding, didn't react either.
Mrs. You’s knees were sore from kneeling.
She was a little overwhelmed.
"You Qing, you still won't come back with me?"
"I only agreed to consider it, but I didn't agree to go back."
You Qing's words made Mrs. You so angry that she almost suffered internal injuries.
They stood in a stalemate at the door.
Ming Qiao was playing with You Qing's fingers at first, and as he was doing that, the tip of his nose twitched.
Then, his gaze fell on Mrs. You.
"Well, brother, let's go."
Ming Qiao stood on tiptoe and whispered in You Qing's ear: "I smell something spicy."
The smell on Mrs. You's body seems to be the same as the smell of the mind-eating demon described in the book.
Since the Heart-Eating Demon eats human hearts, he has a strong smell of blood on his body. Unfortunately, he pays great attention to his appearance and smell. So, in order to cover up the unpleasant smell of blood, he likes to use a kind of grass from the demon world as a spice to hide his original smell.
This grass cannot completely cover up its original taste, so its original taste is mixed with spices to create a new taste.
Mingqiao has smelled this new smell.
This was the smell that came from when his father spoiled the medicine he was cooking for him.
Dad told him about it casually.
Combining what he read in the book and what his father told him, Ming Qiao looked at Mrs. You kneeling on the ground and was sure that the Mind Eater was the closest, and must have been closer than Mrs. You.
He wants to visit You's house.
After Ming Qiao whispered something in You Qing's ear, You Qing didn't hesitate and took him to the direction of You's house.
When Mrs. You saw him leaving, she knelt there. After a while, she reacted and hurriedly followed him.
On the way, Madam You followed You Qing. Her face was still pitiful, but her voice was deliberately lowered, and the words she spoke were full of undisguised malice.
"No matter what, I am still your mother. Mother should kneel to son. If this matter gets out, You Qing, you will no longer be able to live as a human being."
Mrs. You specifically emphasized how much of an impact asking her to kneel would have on You Qing.
His character will be condemned by many people!
Mrs. You finished speaking. Without waiting for You Qing to speak, Ming Qiao raised his chin and asked Mrs. You with a puzzled look on his chubby face: "Do you think my brother cares about what others say about him?"
"We left after completing our mission, so we couldn't hear anything."
"It doesn't matter if you heard it. My brother and I just hate you. We don't want to be polite to you."
Ming Qiao used her pretty and harmless face to say something that gave Mrs. You a heart attack.
Mrs. You was extremely angry, but because she was still outside and someone was watching her, she had to continue to put on a good face.
Mingqiao has no more scruples than she does.
While he was looking around on the road, he continued to talk to Mrs. You in his little mouth.
"My brother is no longer the brother he used to be. Don't be mean and bully him anymore. If I find out, I will complain to my father and mother."
"My father and mother are both very powerful."
After Ming Qiao finished speaking to Mrs. You, he changed the subject without warning.
"Brother, why is there no reward here? A reward for catching the bad guys!"
The bounty for Mo Xu issued by the Lintian Sect is not here.
Brother Changfeng and his fellow brothers might have been busy tracking down the Heart-Eating Demon, so they didn't notice this detail.
Ming Qiao noticed.
He was very concerned about the reward paid by his mother.
When Mrs. You heard him bring up this topic, she tightened her handkerchief and continued the conversation.
"The bounty you mentioned has been withdrawn by my master."
"Such a large reward has caused unrest in the city. My master has ordered that the reward be revealed."
"In this city, my master still has a lot of weight."
Ming Qiao: “?”
Ming Qiao slowly turned her face away.
He looked at Mrs. You with his round black eyes and said in a calm, milky voice, "I will complain."
Tear up the reward at his house, and he will go back and complain to his uncle!
My mother is in seclusion, so I have to ask my uncle about this matter.
Ming Qiao was angry.
He had a stern face and didn't speak to Mrs. You the whole way.
And at this moment, in the inner courtyard of the You family.
Mr. You was lying on the bed, looking like he was barely alive.
He didn't have anyone guarding his room.
But he was breathing heavily and talking to someone: "You, can you really save me? Can you let me survive?"
"certainly."
Obviously, Mr. You was the only one in the room when a second person's voice was heard.
The voice was hard to tell whether it was androgynous, the tone was feminine, but the voice was a little rough.
He bewitched Master You: "You have been very obedient in the past few months."
"So, I will save you."
"When your son comes, I will dig out his heart and give it to you. If you eat it, you will be healed."
"As for the little one your son brought, it belongs to me."
Ming Qiao went fishing for demons many times and actually caught quite a few demons.
Now, his fishing for demons is about to fail.
The mind-eating demon was waiting for him here.
Soon, Ming Qiao and You Qing stepped into You's house.
Before entering the You family, Ming Qiao gave his brothers a letter. In addition, he also exchanged secret signals with Xiao Yunduo in advance.
Everything was ready, Ming Qiao and You Qing were taken to Master You's room.
There is no buffer at all.
Once inside, the Mind Eater sealed off the room.
"You can't run away."
The Heart Eater showed up on the beam. He looked neither male nor female and was not very good looking.
Ming Qiao raised her little face and looked at him seriously for several seconds, then said in a disdainful voice: "So ugly."
Heart Eater: “…”
The Mind Eater's face twisted.
"What did you say?!"
He looked at the two children standing in the room, not running, hiding, or being afraid, and his voice changed with anger: "Do you know who I am? I am a mind eater, I will eat--"
"Don't introduce yourself, it's a waste of time."
Ming Qiao raised his wrist, revealing his storage ring.
With the storage ring, Mingqiao's chubby little feet can always walk by the river without worrying about getting his shoes wet.
He has too many magic weapons.
"Brother, use it as you like!"
The rich kid generously shared his storage ring with his brother.
Qingheng and Wuye left so many things for Mingqiao that it’s hard to count them all.
Especially Wu Ye.
He prepared so many good things for his son.
Not long.
The Heart-Eating Demon was forced to hide all over the house by Ming Qiao's various magic weapons. Not only did he want to hide, he also wanted to run away.
"Duoduo, don't let him run away!"
Ming Qiao shouted, and the next second, he and You Qing were both scooped up and chased after the Mind-Eating Demon.
The Mind Eater never expected that he would be made so miserable by a little kid!
He kept running away, and frantically calculated in his mind -
Should we ask the Demon Lord to do some justice?
This kid is enforcing the law to catch demons. If he is not eliminated soon, there will be no peace in the demon world!
The author has something to say:
Demon: Help, help! ! !
