Quick Wear: Boss, she won again by doing nothing

Chapter 498: Don’t be disrespectful to the gods, or you will die (60)

Xiao Zhao smiled politely and said, "Yes, sir."

Then he took out a few hand-woven toys from his bamboo basket and prepared to give them to the soldiers guarding the city gate.

But those people waved their hands and said no, "You, just keep it and sell it! Your daughter still needs money for medical treatment!"

But Xiao Zhao just smiled and forced the toys into their hands, "Xiao Hua doesn't need the money for these toys, I can just make a few more when I go back, you guys just take them! Take them back for your children to play with."

He didn't wait for them to stuff the things back. He picked up the burden and walked away saying, "Gentlemen, I'm leaving first!"

The soldiers had no choice but to accept it. One of them shouted to him, "Thank you! I hope your daughter can be cured in the end!"

As Xiao Zhao walked away, the city gate behind him was slowly closed, and the bustling sounds on the street also disappeared, as if two worlds were separated by the door.

The way back was as quiet as usual. Xiao Zhao returned along the same route as usual. When passing by a forest, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting not far away.

He was a little scared, so in order not to be involved, he quickened his pace and walked home.

As he walked, he noticed a rustling sound behind him. He looked back with some fear and found it was a little snow-white fox.

The little fox was covered in blood. It must have been killed or encountered some ferocious beast.

He felt pity for it and was about to check its wounds when it suddenly spoke, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. I'm being chased and injured, please hide for me."

"Ah~" He screamed in fear, and was so scared that he sat down on the ground. He moved back tremblingly, trying to distance himself from it.

The fox... the fox spoke! ?

Monster!

He dropped his load and bamboo basket in panic. Seeing this, the little fox immediately ran into the basket and hid.

Before Xiao Zhao recovered from his panic, he saw a man in black with his face covered and a sword in hand suddenly jump out of the woods.

The man in black stared at Xiao Zhao seriously, raised his sword and pointed it at his throat, and asked coldly: "Were you the one who was shouting just now?"

Xiao Zhao was so scared that he was shaking all over and nodded subconsciously.

The man in black saw that he didn't dare to lie, and continued to ask: "Then do you know where it went?"

Xiao Zhao was stunned by the question. Although he was afraid of the little fox, the fact that it was covered with wounds must be related to the man in black in front of him.

If he told the truth, the little fox might die.

But if he doesn't tell the truth, he might be eaten by a talking monster.

The man in black wanted to see that he was hesitating, so he put the tip of his sword against Xiao Zhao's throat and said, "Speak!"

Xiao Zhao swallowed subconsciously in fear, "I...saw it seem to run from...from that side..." He pointed in another direction.

The man in black obviously didn't believe him, and his tone became even more fierce, "Tell the truth!"

Xiao Zhao: “Really…really…”

The man in black was obviously still suspicious of him. He glanced at the two bamboo baskets on the ground and asked, "What's in them?"

When asked this, Xiao Zhao's body tensed up even more, and he stammered, "It's... it's a toy I knitted."

The man in black seemed to be judging the possibility that he was lying, and he examined him suspiciously for a moment before putting his sword away.

"I want to catch the most vicious fox demon. It has already eaten several people. If you lie, I can't save you."

The man in black said something and left in the direction he had just pointed.
