Chapter 23 The Haunted Truth
Liu Piaopiao followed behind them, and finally arrived at a ruined temple in the outskirts of the imperial capital.

She put a breath-holding talisman and an invisibility talisman on herself, and followed in.

The ruined temple is not big, there is a courtyard and a small room, and there is a statue of a god in the room directly opposite the door.

Once the kids got in, they started yelling.

"Brother Hui, come out quickly and see what delicious food we bring you."

"There are delicious fruits and soft steamed buns."

Liu Piaopiao stood at the door and peeped in, waiting for the one named Xiao Hui to appear.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew up out of thin air in the windless ruined temple, and the thatch piles on the ground were blown up.

The children seem to be used to it, and even look happy.

A gray-haired mouse appeared in the open space in front of the statue.

The mouse gradually grew in size until it was the size of an adult.

The older child took out the food in his bag and handed it to the giant gray mouse.

"Brother Little Hui, we were caught stealing food today, but the elder fairy in the yard was very kind, he didn't beat us, and gave us a lot of delicious food. Look at these, they were packed and brought back for us. "

"I won't eat, I'll leave it for you to eat tomorrow." The gray mouse said, it was a young man's voice: "The person you met this time is good, what if it's not good, next time don't go secretly by yourself, wait a few days The fairy elder has left, and I will take you into the city to look for food."

The youngest child threw himself on Gray Mouse, hugged his thigh and said, "Big Brother Little Gray, you have been hiding these few days. Today I saw that fairy elder sister's fingers can glow. It looks amazing." look."

The gray mouse picked up the child like an adult, slapped the child's buttocks with its black paws, and taught: "I will take care of myself, but you, don't run around with your brothers and sisters, you are tired from running You need brothers and sisters to carry you one by one."

"I didn't cry tired today, I walked back together." The child looked proud.

The gray mouse put the child down, went to the side of the statue, and spread thatch and broken mats on the ground.

The inside of the ruined temple is not completely sheltered from wind and rain. A gust of wind during the day can blow their beds into a mess, so they have to tidy their beds every day when they sleep.

The thatch was placed on top of the bluestone slabs, and on top of it was a broken mat with many holes.

After the big mouse made the bed, he called out to the chirping children: "Today I caught a hare in the nearby mountain, and I will roast the rabbit for you tomorrow, but it's already late, so hurry up and go to bed."

Those children were very obedient, and when they heard him speak, they lay down on the broken mat one by one.

"Brother Little Hui, let's live in the ruined temple from now on. Although it's a bit windy, we can live in peace of mind. When we return to the city, we have to hide around every day in the courtyard." The older child said, "I don't want you to stay here again." Go pretend to be a ghost, I'm afraid you will be taken away."

Today, when the big sister mentioned brother Xiao Hui, he was going to be terrified.

The gray mouse became the size of a normal mouse, lay down next to the child's head, and said, "The weather is turning cold now, you will always get sick if you live here, don't worry about me, I will find a way."

Liu Piaopiao stood at the door speechless for a while.

At first, she was worried that the children would be deceived by bad things, so she came here to have a look.

But now it seemed that the gray mouse spirit was a good one.

She herself has brought up several children, so she understands the mood of raising children the most.

That little demon didn't even cultivate a human form, so he couldn't show his face in front of people, so he could only hide around with the child.

It made her feel a little sighed.

Hua Yue, Lian Rong and Mu Yunsheng also witnessed what happened inside the ruined temple, and no one disturbed the people inside.

Liu Piaopiao took out five gold ingots from the storage bag, quietly placed them inside the ruined temple gate, and left with the others.

She hoped that the gold could improve the lives of those street children, so that they would have a place to shelter from the wind and rain after the celebration, and the gray mouse would not have to take the risk of being frightened by ghosts and occupying unoccupied rental houses.

On the way back to the rental house, the four of them happened to meet a group of demon cultivators leaving the city.

The movements of those people were quiet, without a sword, they were all on foot.

The leader is the local tyrant demon girl whom Liu Piaopiao is familiar with.

Although Liu Piaopiao was curious about what the other party was doing out of the city in the middle of the night, it was his private matter after all, so she didn't go over to say hello.

After watching those people go away, they returned to the yard to rest as usual.

When it was almost dawn, the door of their yard was slammed.

Mu Yunsheng went to open the dilapidated door, revealing the children inside the dilapidated temple.

All the children had tears on their faces.

"I beg you, please help us, our elder brother has been taken away." The child said while crying.

Mu Yunsheng took out a handkerchief, wiped the tears off the faces of the children one by one, and asked, "Don't cry, who took your brother away? Do you remember what that person looked like?"

Liu Piaopiao came out of her room and heard the descriptions of those children.

"Those people were all wearing black clothes, and there was a woman who wore very little on her body and had a lot of braids on her head."

She recalled according to the description, and it was the group of demon cultivators she met before.

Could it be that Moxiu went out of the city last night to catch that mouse spirit?

Liu Piaopiao walked up to those children and said, "Don't cry, I'll take you to the sister who arrested you."

That mouse spirit didn't even have a form, and there was no bloody smell on it, so it was impossible to offend anyone.

There may be some misunderstanding.

In the morning, before Feixue Pavilion opened, the door was slammed.

The boy opened the door, revealing a sleepy face.

"Who, didn't open the door so early in the morning, what's the matter?"

"Excuse me, let's come and find the group of demon cultivators who stayed yesterday."

The servant said impatiently: "We don't have any magic cultivators here." Then he was about to close the door.

Liu Piaopiao pressed the door panel, and said patiently: "Then please help us to call your brothel mother."

"Mom is sleeping. I don't see any visitors now. Come back at night."

The boy tried his best to close the door, but the door seemed to be rooted and did not move at all.

Only then did he realize that the people at the door were not easy to mess with, so he quickly said, "Then wait a minute, I'll call right away."

Liu Piaopiao smiled and retracted her hand, closing the door in front of her.

"Sister, do those people live here?" asked the child behind the woman.

Liu Piaopiao replied: "It should be there, we will find out after we ask someone, don't worry, I will help you find your brother back."

The painted red door opened again.

Feixuege's mother greeted Liu Piaopiao very familiarly when she saw Liu Piaopiao: "Good morning, Immortal Elder."

She saw a group of children behind the woman, a little surprise appeared on her face, and then she smiled again.

Yesterday I brought a group of demon cultivators to Feixue Pavilion, and today I brought a group of little beggars
"Good morning." Liu Piaopiao said with a smile: "Could you please call that Miss Moxiu yesterday for me, I have something to ask her."
