Chapter 244 Monsters can also kill monsters
"Evil spirit?"
Yao Qianqiong turned pale when she heard this, and the guards around her also looked horrified.
Demon!
The previous encounters had made them see the terror of demons very clearly.
Now I heard that there is evil spirit in my home?
"Mr. Zhou, save my family, save my family!" Yao Qianqiong panicked, grabbed Zhou Heng's sleeves, and begged, "Sir, I have only been out to visit relatives for half a month, why is there a monster in my house? Please save us."
"Let's go take a look first," Zhou Heng said.
Along the way, he also almost understood Yao Qianqiong's family situation.
When Yao Qianqiong's father was young, he traveled all over the country and worked hard to do business. He visited many places. He even had a map hidden at home, and he knew the terrain of all places quite well.
——In the early years, when the laws of the imperial court were still there, demon subduers from major aristocratic families traveled everywhere, and the world was barely stable. At that time, there were still some businessmen doing business everywhere.
If Zhou Heng wants to find Qijun Mountain, he must first find the location of Qijun Mountain from Yao Qianqiong's house, and also ask what road to get there.
After all, this world is not Daqi. He does not have Chunyang Palace shops all over the world to ask for directions, and there is no Starlight Bridge in Ziwei Palace to use. If he wants to go somewhere, he must first find a way.
At this time, Zhou Heng missed his days on earth very much.
No matter where you want to go, take out your mobile phone and search on various map software. You will find details of the area, surrounding facilities, past routes, etc.
Although Tencent Map is not as easy to use as Baidu Map, it still makes him miss it very much when needed.
Seeing that Zhou Heng agreed, Yao Qianqiong was slightly relieved and felt a little at ease.
"Sir, please come with me."
…
The Yao family's house is very large. It is considered a wealthy family in Qinghe City and has a lot of wealth.
After giving birth to three sons, the master of the Yao family had a daughter, but she died in infancy. Finally, she had another child, and she is now the fifth girl of the Yao family, Yao Qianqiong.
Therefore, the master of the Yao family doted on Yao Qianqiong to the extreme on weekdays. He treasured her so much that he regarded her as the apple of his eye.
I don't want her to be wronged in the slightest.
In recent days, the monsters that were already frightened have begun to appear. People are often killed by monsters when they travel far away. Yao Qianqiong has not returned from visiting relatives, which really scares the Yao family master.
There were more than twenty members of the Yao family, excluding servants, all living in this mansion. The Yao family master felt uneasy, which made the whole family restless.
This day, noon.
At the lunch table of the Yao family, the Yao family's father, Yao Guangshun, and his three sons, Yao Qianshan, Yao Qianqian, and Yao Qianjiang, were sitting on both sides.
This is the main table, and the rest of the people, including the female family members, are on the secondary table.
However, one person is different.
That was Bai, the daughter-in-law whom the third son Yao Qianjiang had just married half a month ago. She was young, beautiful, soft-spoken, and took good care of the elderly. She was the only female family member allowed to sit at the main table.
Yao Guangshun is in his fifties this year, with gray hair and deep wrinkles. He sighed as he ate.
Everyone around also stopped using their chopsticks, as if the dishes on the table suddenly no longer tasted good.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Bai asked in a gentle voice, "Do you miss Qian Qiong again?"
"Hey, why doesn't this girl come back?" Yao Guangshun sighed and said, "It's so chaotic outside now, how can I feel at ease if she doesn't come back."
"Master, don't worry. Qian Qiong has been smart since she was a child, and she has personal guards to protect her. She will definitely be fine." Bai comforted her in a low voice: "Maybe Qian Qiong was just delayed by something on the road. Should be back soon.”
The others didn't dare to speak.
Because the situation outside is really too dangerous now, especially when Yao Qianqiong returns from visiting relatives, there is a forest, and the possibility of encountering monsters is extremely high.
It goes without saying how powerful and ferocious monsters are. As long as a person has monsters, unless he is lucky enough to have a demon subduer from an aristocratic family passing by, he will definitely die.
No matter how strong your martial arts is, it’s useless.
In the eyes of everyone in the Yao family, there is a high possibility that Yao Qianqiong died after encountering a monster.
Therefore, no one dared to jump out and comfort him.
Otherwise, when the news of Yao Qianqiong's death comes later, the master will lose his temper and will never spare these people who comforted him that Yao Qianqiong is not dead.
Only Mrs. Bai could rely on her youth, beauty, sweet voice, and status as daughter-in-law to be sure that the master would not really punish him, so she dared to comfort him in such a soft voice.
"I hope it will be like this." Yao Guangshun finally sighed. He actually had some guesses in his heart, but he just didn't want to believe it.
At this moment, a servant came running outside, he was in a hurry and his face was full of excitement.
"Master, master!
"The fifth girl is back, the fifth girl is back!!"
shouted the servant.
"What?!" Yao Guangshun stood up immediately, his eyes widened, he looked outside, and said in surprise: "Back? My fifth girl is back? Where is she? Let her come quickly."
"Dad, I made you worry, I'm back." Yao Qianqiong's voice came, and then she came here with Zhou Heng and the personal guard.
"Good boy, good boy, you are finally back. You are really worried about me." Yao Guangshun pushed aside the crowd and came to Yao Qianqiong. He looked up and down and saw that Yao Qianqiong was intact. He was even more happy in his heart, "Okay, too." Okay, Qian Qiong, come here, eat, eat."
"Dad, we have guests." Yao Qianqiong did not go directly over, but introduced Zhou Heng to Yao Guangshun and others with a smile on his face, and briefly recounted his previous experience on the road.
"What, you really met a monster, and this person killed the monster and escorted you back?" Yao Guangshun was shocked and worried: "Good boy, are you okay, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay, with Mr. Zhou here, I will be fine." Yao Qianqiong's cheeks flushed slightly, and she smiled lightly: "Mr. Zhou is very powerful, those monsters are not his opponents at all."
"Then I have to thank Mr. Zhou very much." Yao Guangshun looked at Zhou Heng and made an invitation, "Come, sir, please sit down, you saved my daughter, this is a great favor."
"It's just a little effort." Zhou Heng smiled.
"Are you a demon hunter?" Yao Guangshun asked, "In the early years, I traveled all over the country and met some demon hunters, but none of them were as young and powerful as you."
"I guess so." Zhou Heng nodded gently.
"Which family are you from?" Bai Shi, who was standing by, suddenly spoke softly, saying, "I heard that demon hunters all come from ancient families, but there doesn't seem to be a Zhou family among them."
"Daddy! Sister-in-law! What do you mean by this?" Yao Qianqiong was dissatisfied and stood up and said, "Mr. Zhou is my lifesaver. How can you ask him questions like this?"
"Qianqiong, you don't know that those who kill monsters are not necessarily demon hunters." Bai Shi shook her head gently, her eyes suddenly turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Monsters can also kill monsters, and from what you said, Mr. Zhou didn't use the magic of demon hunters, but more like the violence that only monsters have."
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings fell into a dead silence. People stepped back one after another, picked up the things at hand, and looked at Zhou Heng with vigilance.
