Chapter Eighty-Eight: Out of the Mission, Chen Village's Strange Affair

"Master Guan Shan, Master Guan Shan. ”

Early in the morning, a little Taoist boy hurried to the grass hall and knocked on the door.

"What's the matter? Jiang Shenfu opened the door, and he was a little puzzled when he saw the little Taoist boy who came early in the morning.

There are usually no people in the cottage, but occasionally some senior brothers and uncles come to see the old Taoist priest of Guanshan and every time there is a little Taoist boy kicking a bamboo basket to deliver food to the three of them.

"Where's Master Guan Shan?" Xiao Dao Tong lifted his hat that was a little crooked, "The head asked Master Guan Shan to go to the Star Picking Hall! ”

"Ah~" Jiang Shenfu nodded, "Wait! I'll call the master." ”

After a while, the old Taoist priest of Guanshan walked out leisurely in a plain Taoist robe, "Let's go." ”

"You two boys~ I'm not here, you can also cultivate well. Especially the ups and downs~ Don't let me touch the fish. ”

Jiang Shenfu scratched his head in embarrassment: "Hahaha, don't worry, master, I'll cultivate well!"

"Okay, let's practice well. Wang Wenwen patted Jiang Shenfu's shoulder, "Tell me how long you haven't cultivated well, if you see Bai Girl in the future, everyone will be distracted, and you are still a cultivator, so you can't lose the dead?"

"Hey, Lao Wang, you're right!" Jiang Shenfu patted his thigh and nodded, "It's a little reasonable! No, I have to hurry up and cultivate." Let me tell you, recently I used the star attraction charm and the comet to cooperate that is called a strong! One day, if you drag someone in a fight, I will directly bomb him with a fixed-point strike, and there will be no scum left!"

"Okay, okay, you just keep banging!" Wang Wenwen smiled and picked up the Dolan sword, "I went to practice swords, and the master mentioned it yesterday, and I benefited a lot!"

From the beginning of the morning sun to the setting sun, the old Taoist priest of Guanshan finally returned to the thatched cottage.

"The master is back!" the two hurriedly put down what they were doing and greeted them.

"Hey~ A group of people's mother-in-law and mother-in-law, a little broken thing for a long time. The old Taoist priest of Guanshan took a sip of wine and moistened his throat, "You sit, I have something to tell you." ”

"You newcomers are all out of time. Recently, the sect has assigned tasks to all five of you, and today I was also told about this matter, and your task is estimated to be the most tricky. ”

The old Taoist priest of Guanshan took out a dossier from his arms: "This is it, you can see for yourself." ”

Wang Wenwen took the file and slowly opened it with Jiang Shenfu.

"Chen Cun's treacherous case?

"Not bad. The old Taoist priest of Guanshan nodded, "Many things that the yamen can't handle or things that some places don't want the yamen to deal with will let the sect take orders, and we are also happy to do this, after all, the benefits are also there, and we can also have the opportunity for the disciples to practice." ”

Chen Cun ...... The elderly and children always disappear inexplicably. Wang Wenwen flipped through the scrolls, "Thirteen villagers have disappeared in a month...... It's kind of serious. ”

"This problem began to appear in the first two months, why didn't it reach us now?" Jiang Shenfu frowned, "I'm afraid that many people have disappeared again during this time." ”

"There's no way around it. The old Taoist priest of Guanshan shook his head, "The process of going through the government first, it will take so much time to go through so many processes to our hands." ”

"At first, it was the old man who went up to the mountain to collect medicine and the children who were playing in the field disappeared, but then it was so serious that sometimes when the day turned into night, the villagers would faint inexplicably, and when they woke up, the villagers would disappear, and even a large number of chickens and ducks would die. ”

Wang Wenwen took a deep breath: "There is no more detail, it should be a range of spells or abilities, the villagers are not monks, and it is not too difficult to faint the villagers of the whole village." ”

The old Taoist priest of Guanshan looked at Wang Wenwen with interest: "Go on." ”

Wang Wenwen nodded and pointed to a paragraph of the dossier: "It says that some villagers saw a furry figure before they fell asleep, and it appeared every time Yin and Yang converged, which can narrow down a lot of things, and only appeared at sunset." ”

Jiang Shenfu also nodded: "And if you only catch the elderly and children, it shouldn't be a monster with too much strength." But at first, it was only the villagers who disappeared in the mountains, and then they arrived in the village, and this monster may be slowly getting stronger. ”

"That's a lot smaller. Wang Wenwen rummaged through the books in the bamboo cabinet and pointed to one of them, "It should be a zombie, Mao Zhuang?"

"Hahahaha, not bad, not bad. The old Taoist priest of Guanshan stroked his beard, obviously very satisfied with the analysis of the two, "The gang of people in the Star Picking Hall also think so, grandma's, a lot of people are not as fast as you two young people think, and I haven't eaten lunch even because of the grinding and chirping." ”

"This is the mission...... Stiff ...... It's also a little trickier than the other groups. The old Taoist priest of Guanshan was a little serious, "Originally, it was indeed not your turn to do this task, but the price given by Chen Cun was really not high, and it may be the most suitable for you to do this task considering your performance in the Ancient King Forest." ”

"You two pay a little more attention. If necessary, run quickly, save your life, you know!"

"Yes, master. ”

Chen Village, a small village in the south of Xunyang City, lives in the mountains, with trees and few people. There were less than 200 people in the whole village, and now dozens of people are missing, and every family has been closed since the sun turned west, and it is even more bleak.

When Wang Wenwen and Jiang Shenfu arrived at the village, it was already noon, and they happened to see the village chief plowing the fields.

When the villagers saw two people dressed as Taoist priests coming to the village, they immediately knew what was going on and rushed up.

After all, Wang Wenwen and Jiang Shenfu are still on a mission for the sect, so naturally it is better to wear the clothes of the sect, and the two of them are wearing the cloud pattern plain blue wide robes of the Star Gate, and they are still a little thin and gloomy in the autumn wind.

Seeing this, the village chief hurriedly drove the ox to the two of them: "Two Taoist chiefs, I am the village chief here." ”

"Hmm. Wang Wenwen nodded, "It's not convenient to talk here, so let's go to the village chief's house to talk." ”

"Hey, good!" the village chief took the cow and shouted at the village, "Old woman, cook rice! The Taoist chief who came down from Xianshan is here!",

There is still a distance from the village chief's house at the entrance of the village, and when he arrived at the village chief's house, there were already three or four dishes on the table, there was no meat, all of them were some mushrooms and wild vegetables in the mountains.

"Hey, hey, the Taoist hasn't eaten yet. Let's sit down and have a meal first. If it's not enough, I'll do it again," the village chief greeted Wang Wenwen with a smile, and the two of them were ups and downs.

The village chief's house is very dilapidated, in fact, not only the village chief's house, but also Chen Village is very dilapidated, maybe these three or four dishes are already very difficult.

Jiang Shenfu smiled slightly: "No need, that's all it's good." ”

"Let's get down to business. Wang Wenwen picked up a cup of tea and blew it twice and took a sip slowly, "The file we received was two months ago, and at that time there were thirteen villagers missing, and how many have been missing so far." ”

When the village chief heard this, there was a painful expression on his face, and his eyes were red: "Twenty-one of them have disappeared so far! ”

Twenty-one...... Wang Wenwen looked at Jiang Shenfu, and the two of them also felt that things were not quite right, so they only had eight more people missing in the past two months?

"What did they say when you invited the people from the Yamen to come over? Jiang Shenfu asked.

"They...... They didn't have a problem at first, but then they called a Taoist priest who was about the same clothes as you to come over, saying that they would let us scatter glutinous rice at the door of our house, but it didn't work, it was a little less, but there were still villagers missing. ”

"Glutinous rice...... It's the zombies that didn't run away. Wang Wenwen pondered for a while, "That Yamen Taoist priest didn't let you get anything else?"

Later, for several days there was no shame in our village, and the Taoist priest said that he would go up the mountain to catch ghosts, but when Chen Daniu at the entrance of the village was chopping wood, he saw him hanging on a tree, and his whole body was caught. Then the people of the Yamen gave us a big bag of glutinous rice and left, saying that they wanted to invite the gods on the fairy mountain to come down, and then you would come!"

"Lao Wang, what do you think?" Jiang Shenfu pondered for a while, "I don't think that zombie will be beyond our ability to deal with." ”

"Probably not. Wang Wenwen shook his head.

Jiang Shenfu's words frightened the village chief, what about joking? Can't deal with it? The gods can't deal with it when they come, so isn't our village out of life? Fortunately, Wang Wenwen continued to say this, which made the village chief's heart settle down.

"That Taoist priest will only put glutinous rice, and he shouldn't go anywhere. It is also possible that the Taoist priest underestimated the enemy, or maybe he was ambushed by zombies in the mountains, it is possible. Wang Wenwen knocked on the table repeatedly with two fingers, knocking on the table while thinking, "Anyway, we can't deal with it in the mountains, it's better to be safe in the village." ”

"Village chief, is it true that only the elderly and children have been arrested?" Jiang Shenfu continued to ask, "Has anything happened recently?"

"It's the old man and the child who were arrested...... Recently......" The village chief thought for a moment and shook his head, "No one has been arrested recently, but the eighth aunt next door fainted inexplicably like us when she was cooking yesterday and fell into the fire pit, and her hands were burned." ”

"I haven't done anything lately. Wang Wenwen and Jiang Shenfu glanced at each other and confirmed, "It seems that glutinous rice does have some effect on it, so it shouldn't be a more advanced zombie, it should be a stiff hair." ”

"Don't worry, village chief, this is not a big problem, we have done it for you, so that you can live in peace. Jiang Shenfu showed a smile, his peach blossom eyes narrowed into two crescents, looking friendly and kind, which made the village chief feel quite relieved.

"Hey, hey, that's good. The village chief also grinned, "I'll just say, the gods on the mountain will definitely be able to solve our problems when they come down." ”

"Oh, yes. Wang Wenwen seemed to think of something when he picked up a dish, and his hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, "Village chief, is there any place in your village that can accommodate all of your villagers?"
