Power ministers always make things difficult for me

After a cup of tea.

Pei Qi sat in the car, looking through the car window with interest at the people who were beaten up by Xu Chi in the distance, but he was thinking about how to find out the mastermind of the human trafficking.

Jinjiang was still waiting for her, so she couldn't spend too much time in Chaozhou. This matter had to be resolved quickly.

She didn't mind going to war and directly asked the three hundred shadow guards to destroy the den, but this would inevitably cause panic among the people of Chaozhou. When the news spread to the imperial capital, she was afraid that her departure from the imperial capital would be exposed.

But right now... there is no good solution.

While thinking, Xu Chi finished solving the matter at hand, untied the wolf boy's chains, and brought him to Pei Qi.

"My subordinates have made it clear that in addition to hunting rare beasts in the mountains, these hunters also kidnap girls from time to time and bring them to Chaozhou's 'Tianxiake' to sell them. It must have been more than ten years ago. As for those who were sold They also don’t know what happened to the missing children and girls.”

"I only know that although this 'Tian Xia Ke' is just a large-scale teahouse on the surface, in fact... there is an underground store hidden behind it."

Underground store...

She really underestimated this group of people.

Pei Qi turned his eyes slightly and glanced at the wolf boy beside Xu Chi. Perhaps because of the torture he had just endured, he was staring at her closely with his teeth bared. Although his face was fierce, his body was unconsciously moving. trembling.

He must have been frightened.

Pei Qi picked up the wolf boy on the carriage, then looked up at the group of hunters lying on the ground, howling and screaming: "Send someone to send these to the Chaozhou government. As for those 'guests from all over the world', we Let’s go shopping too.”

It's also time to see who has such great ability.

"Yes."

When the carriage started moving again, Pei Qi propped his head in the carriage and stared at the wolf boy.

Secretly thinking about how to find a home for this child.

Otherwise, keep it for Jiang Lingfeng for fun?

Pei Qi pushed the snack in front of him forward. He was afraid that she wouldn't understand what he meant, so he simply picked up a piece and put it in his mouth and took a bite.

When the little wolf boy saw that she had eaten, he was not polite. He grabbed a handful and stuffed it into his mouth hungrily.

Pei Qi smiled and stared at her with interest: "You are not afraid of life."

After she finished eating, Pei Qi took a handkerchief and soaked it, and waved to the little wolf boy: "Come here and wipe your face."

Perhaps because he knew that Pei Qi was not hostile and even fed him, the little wolf boy lowered his guard and crawled to Pei Qi's side several times, nuzzling her palms as if to please her.

Pei Qi first brushed away the remaining debris from her mouth, then straightened her messy hair a little, and then began to wipe her cat face.

The little wolf boy's face gradually became clearer under Pei Qi's movements.

Judging from her height, she seemed to be about seven or eight years old. Although her muddy face had faded away, she had pretty features, especially her eyes, which had not been contaminated by any secular dust, and were just clear and translucent.

Perhaps this is what it means to be sold without knowing anything.

It just happened that she was passing by here to save the person. It was fate.

After wiping her face, Pei Qi treated the whip wounds on her body and secretly cursed those hunters for being so merciless.

Such a tiny child really has no sympathy at all.

After Pei Qi finished her work, the little wolf child in front of her had a completely new look. If she hadn't been crawling and walking, she might not have been able to tell that she was a wolf child.

"It turns out she's a little girl." Pei Qi pressed her to his side, combed her messy hair together, tied a small hairpin on her hand and poked her, and asked with a smile, "Do you have a name?"

The little wolf boy tilted her head. Perhaps she understood what Pei Qi meant, so she tilted her head and shook her head. "If not, I'll get one for you." Pei Qi touched her head and caught her bright gaze.

At this age, it should be the most innocent and carefree time for ordinary children, but she was abandoned by others and suffered a lot.

If she were to be brought back to the crowd, she would probably... receive all kinds of weird looks.

"Why don't I call you Xingluo."

But even though she would be out of tune with the people of the world, she didn't want her to be that weirdo that people despised.

But he wants her to be the star that falls into the world and is not like others.

"Xing——" The little girl imitated Pei Qi's behavior, gritting her teeth and spitting out only one syllable, but there was no follow-up.

Pei Qi couldn't help but find it funny, and taught her very patiently: "Xing - Luo -"

However, after studying for a long time, she still could only shout out the word "star". She felt a little annoyed and stamped her feet anxiously.

"National Master, we are here."

As Xu Chi's voice came, the carriage stopped steadily in front of an inn.

Pei Qi took Xingluo out of the car and took a look around Chaozhou. Its prosperity was no different from that of the imperial capital.

She hooked her hand at Xu Chi and said, "Send someone to find out how to get in to the 'Tianxia Ke' and the underground store inside."

Xu Chi nodded in understanding, turned around, walked in, and occupied the entire third floor of the inn. After placing Pei Qi and others in place, he quietly left the inn.

Pei Qi entered the guest room and played with Xingluo for a while. However, Xingluo was already accustomed to going out at night in the valley. Pei Qi was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes, but she was still lively and energetic.

It's getting late today, so we can only wait until Xu Chi comes back to make plans for Chaozhou, but now...

Who can teach her how to take care of her children?

……

After a day and night of driving, Pei Qi fell asleep very quickly. Fortunately, although Xingluo was born in the wild, he could somehow understand Pei Qi's words. Even though he was a little naughty in the house, he knew that he could not open the door and leave.

While Pei Qi was sleeping, she was bored in the room and looked around, making some noise from time to time, but fortunately the noise was not big and it did not affect Pei Qi.

only……

In the originally quiet room, an uninvited guest suddenly broke in.

In the darkness, Xingluo's hearing was even more acute. Her ears moved slightly and her head suddenly turned to one side. She saw a black shadow suddenly flashing away in the inconspicuous corner of the wall.

Xingluo bared his teeth, growled a few times, and then jumped out like a sharp arrow in the next second.

"Bang-bang-!"

In her daze, Pei Qi felt that the sounds in her ears were becoming more frequent. She opened her eyes and rubbed them gently, then opened the bed curtains. The mess in front of her made her sleepless and stunned.

In this world, are there still people robbing inns?

"Starfall!"

Pei Qi focused his attention on the little girl running around the room, and saw that she was competing with a mouse, as if she was fighting it to the death.

Apparently, this is the culprit.

Pei Qi held her forehead with a headache, and quickly called her a few more times: "Xingluo! You are a human, not a cat, stop it!"

When I was typing onomatopoeia today, I found that the word "口dang" couldn't be typed. Is my memory confused? I clearly remembered this word! !
