Chapter 210 Hope of Life
The head of the female wolf demon rolled down and fell in front of Shen Qing.
Shen Qing turned his wrist and skillfully cut open the belly of the wolf demon, and took out another demon pill from it.
This demon pill was much smaller than the previous one, and the quality was lower, but it was better than nothing.
Shen Qing put the demon pill in his arms and walked slowly into the depths of the house.
He looked around, and his eyes froze involuntarily.
In front of him, a bone bed was formed among the dry bones on the ground, and a group of young wolf cubs gathered on it, with a count of seven or eight.
They either curled up or looked around vigilantly.
They began to grin and growl when they noticed his movement.
In the corner of this group of wolf demon cubs, three people curled up together.
Two adults and one child, a family of three.
The three people were ragged, with their backs pressed against the wall at the corner.
The thin child in the middle bit his cracked lips tightly, trying his best to suppress the fear and anxiety in his heart. His small body trembled silently, and he snuggled tightly in his parents' arms.
The faces of the three people looked extremely pale in the weak light, and their eyes were empty and numb, as if they had experienced all the suffering and despair in the world, and had lost their proper response to all the stimuli around them.
The air was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of oppression.
These people were most likely sent here by Zhou Baoyin, but they just happened to encounter Liu Sangui's incident.
The martial artist's flesh and blood full of vitality attracted the wolf demon, so they were lucky enough to escape and did not become the wolf demon's food.
Shen Qing looked at this family and asked the servants behind him in a deep voice: "What's the matter with them?"
The servants behind him said in panic: "Yes... they are tenants of the master's family. They can't pay the rent, so... they were sent here by the master."
Shen Qing's already gloomy face became even heavier.
He took a step forward, walked a few steps, and stood still.
Shen Qing looked at the dark family, and the old man he saw in the village that day suddenly appeared in his mind, and his heart suddenly became mixed.
Seeing that Shen Qing had not moved, the child held by two adults asked carefully: "Cha Ye, are you here to save us?"
Her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, flashing with a lively brilliance in this dim room.
Shen Qing leaned down, reached out and touched her head, and his eyebrows were more gentle: "Yes, I killed the wolf demon, and now you are safe."
Xiao Ni'er's face suddenly showed a little surprise. She kept shaking the two of them and said happily: "Dad, Mom, we are fine, we are safe, and there is a Cha Ye to save us."
The numb and scattered eyes of the two people in the corner suddenly became more moved, and their eyes gradually focused and stared at Shen Qing.
When they saw Shen Qing's blood-spattered Weiwusi officer uniform, some doubts appeared on their faces again.
"Awoo!"
A wolf cub showed its fierceness and bit Shen Qing's trouser leg.
Shen Qing lowered his head, glanced, and swung the long knife in his hand, sweeping across the wolf cub.
A cold light flashed.
The wolf cub's body was directly split in two.
Shen Qing raised the knife and said, "How long do you plan to stay here? Don't you want to leave?"
At this time, the whole family in the house really realized that they were rescued, and the hope of life emerged on their faces.
The two of them seemed to have a lot of strength in their bodies, and slowly stood up with the help of the wall.
Then under Shen Qing's gaze, their eyes were red, they hunched over, and limped out of the dim house while bowing and thanking him repeatedly.
Shen Qing turned his eyes to the wolf den beside him, and his expression gradually became colder.
These wolf cubs were obviously born not long ago, and they don't have much consciousness now, which is not much different from ordinary wild wolves.
But now that they have eaten human flesh and smelled human scent, and they are born from demons, new demons may be born among them in the future.
Shen Qing has no intention of letting these wolf cubs go.
He held the knife and slowly walked towards the wolf den, slashing without hesitation.
After a while, Shen Qing wiped the blood off the knife, and when he passed by the body of the female wolf demon, he grabbed it with one hand and walked to the door, saying to the servant: "Take all the little wolf cubs in the house."
After leaving this sentence, Shen Qing dragged the huge wolf demon body towards Changqiao Town in front of him.
The dirty blood on the wolf demon's body was still dripping from the body, and as Shen Qing dragged it, a long bloody trail was revealed on the path.
...
In Changqiao Town, in the Zhou family compound.
Zhou Baoyin's death finally aroused the vigilance of many Zhou family members.
Especially Zhou Baoyin's three sons, they knew what their father did privately, and they knew very well that at least the wolf demon at this stage would not attack their father.
Plus the bloody knife wound on his neck.
Needless to say, it was obvious that this was the work of the Weiwusi Chasi.
"How can a mere Chasi dare to disregard the law? He must not be let off." As Zhou Baoyin's eldest son, Zhou Dazhi was filled with righteous indignation at this time. He took the initiative to stand up and spoke loudly.
His voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the messy main hall.
Now that Zhou Baoyin died, Zhou Dazhi nominally became the head of the family and had the obligation to take on the responsibilities of the family.
Looking at the crying family members, he quickly calmed down.
Zhou Dazhi said seriously to his brother: "Second brother, go to the Zhou family in the county immediately and tell the head of the Zhou family what happened here. Although we are a side branch, in the end we are still members of the Zhou family."
"If the officers of Weiwusi dare to do such a thing, they are clearly riding on the neck of the Zhou family to shit. The head of the Zhou family will definitely not tolerate it. We will warn them in advance and do not ask them to do it themselves, but we guarantee that if we do it in the future because of this matter, When trouble occurs, we cannot let them sit idly by.”
"Okay. Brother, I'll go right away."
Zhou Dazhi nodded and said: "The remaining family members will follow me and ask the police officer face to face to ask for justice and let him sober up. This Changqiao Town is not a place for his police officer to run wild. Walk!"
After speaking, Zhou Dazhi led many Zhou family members to the door.
He saw the second child in the family standing there blankly and asked, "What's wrong with you? What are you doing standing at the door?"
The second son of the Zhou family swallowed his mouth and said, "Brother, the policeman is back."
"Um?"
Zhou Dazhi looked forward after hearing this, and saw a figure slowly walking into his sight.
A man, wearing a blood-stained military uniform.
He was dragging a headless wolf demon in his hand and walking towards their direction step by step with a steady pace.
When Zhou Dazhi met the man's beastly gaze, his heart trembled, and his mind went blank, as if he had forgotten the next action.
It wasn't until Shen Qing threw the wolf demon's body in front of them that he regained consciousness.
