A place similar to an inn, three floors high. The first floor is the lobby, and the second and third floors are all guest rooms, with a total of five rooms on each floor.

This place is the residence of the government in Yanmen Village.

The lobby was crowded with people, and it seemed a little cramped for a while.

Fifteen officials were scattered around the hall, everyone's spirit was very tense, and there were heavy dark circles on both eyes, and the five warriors sent by the Chamber of Commerce were sitting at the tables and chairs on both sides, and Li Xian and Li Zhao were leaning on the edge of the door, so that they could see the scene outside, and they would not miss the situation inside.

Xing Shan sat on the table and chair in the center, and in front of him stood Wei Zhutou, who was explaining to Xing Shan why there had been no news for the past few days.

It is worth noting that on Wei Zhutou's shoulder squatted a falcon with red feathers, no more than the size of a skull, but the letter eagle, which seemed to be extremely martial, had a broken wing.

Looking at it, it seemed to want to fly again, but no matter how it fluttered its wings, it couldn't fly, so it could only rely on Wei Zhutou's ears and temples to avoid falling down.

Wei Zhutou's voice was a little hoarse, and he arched his hand and said:

"At the beginning, Yanmen Village would send people down the mountain to report that there was a big incident in the village, but in fact, there was an unknown murderer in the village, who would kill one or two people every day, but in a short period of time, more than ten people died in the village.

"Although this Yanmen Village is large, the villagers have lived here for generations, and they are so familiar with the grass and trees here, but the young people in the whole village can not find the murderer, including the Su Zhutou who was stationed here in the Spiegel Division at the beginning......

Therefore, in desperation, the villagers could only send someone down the mountain to inform them. ”

Xingshan in front of Wei Zhutou looked like he was not smiling, he was in a high position all the year round and had a strong majesty, his pupils were a little cold, and he said indifferently:

"Go on!"

Wei Zhutou's face was a little sad, and he told the story of this matter.

"At the beginning, the yamen didn't pay much attention to this matter, because Yanmen Village is located in the deep mountains and old forests and its own strength is not bad, maybe it is a wicked person who is greedy for monkey wine and has good hidden skills, so at that time I sent a few officials who were good at tracking.

"But when there was no news for three consecutive days, I realized that something was wrong, and immediately organized people to lead the team in person, but I didn't expect ......"

When he said this, Wei Zhutou's face was a little gloomy and guilty, you must know that as the head of the yamen, because of his negligence, this matter was not handled well, and many brothers died, so it can be said that his career is basically over.

"When we came to Yanmen Village, we found that several officials and Su Zhutou had died, and after asking the reason, we learned that the villagers wanted to go down the mountain again, but this time they would die not far from the village. “

"Village Chief Han and the others don't believe in evil, so they sent several villagers to run out together from different directions, but the result is still the same...... So in this case, the villagers were reluctant to risk going down the mountain to report the news, until we came and understood what was going on.

"I immediately contacted the village chief Han and combined with the young people in the village to start a thorough search, but after a whole day, not even a trace was found......

"We're also trapped here like the previous servants, and if it weren't for the fast speed, the eagle wouldn't have been able to escape at all.

"The most important thing is that it's not people who trap us, it's monsters!

"A large ape with snow-white fur all over its body. ”

When he heard the white ape, no one noticed that Xing Shan's eyes suddenly became complicated, and he converged almost as soon as he appeared.

With a tear, Wei Zhutou tore open the collar, and at this time, everyone realized that there was a deep claw mark on his chest, and the sound of words entered their ears.

"This is the wound left after the fight with the great ape, and the only information I got is that the demon beast will not attack as long as we don't go down the mountain. ”

After listening to Wei Zhutou's narration, the group had different expressions.

The caravan's five-member group had more or less ugly faces. According to Wei Zhutou's statement, there is still a murderous demon with unknown strength hidden in the village, and there is a demon beast of unknown strength outside the village.

When they saw the big red flower bridge outside the village, they were actually a little happy in their hearts, if this incident was just a farce, it would undoubtedly avoid a vicious battle.

But why didn't you think of it...... The truth is that the current situation sounds much more complicated than it might think.

"Whew-"

Xing Shan let out a disdainful snort from his mouth, and his tone was a little cold: "According to what you say, we people can enter the village, and all of them were deliberately put in by that demon beast?"

You must know that in the team this time, there are two martial artists from the One Realm, but Xing Shan and Li Xian didn't find anything abnormal along the way!

Wei Zhutou's lips trembled up and down violently, he wanted to explain but couldn't say anything, the cold sweat on his face was dense, and he could feel that as long as he said something wrong, his head would fall to the ground immediately.

"Then what's going on with today's send-off procession? I think their route should have circled the village, why weren't they attacked by demon beasts?"

Li Xian asked.

There are only three people who really have the right to speak here, Xing Shan, Li Xian, and Wei Zhutou, all three of whom have official positions, and they are not low.

Wei Zhutou glanced at Li Xian with a grateful gaze and answered the second question first. He arched his hand and said:

"Back to the two or five hundred masters, as long as you don't go down the mountain, you won't be attacked if you move around the village......"

'How can you tell if you are not going down the mountain?From which distance to start counting the downhill?You must know that the location of Yanmen Village is not small!' A series of questions came to my mind.

In the outside world, Li Xian's gaze was like an ancient well, and he couldn't see a look. He didn't ask it, and it is estimated that he would not get an ideal and satisfactory answer if he asked.

"As for the team to send off relatives today, it is the son of the village chief Han to marry......

"In fact, this is an arranged marriage, but it has been delayed by this matter, and Village Chief Han said that the marriage has been informed to the mountain god, and it may be ominous if it is delayed in the future.

"And there have been no murders in the village in the past few days, and Village Chief Han means to take this opportunity to rush with happy events. ”

Hearing this, Li Xian frowned, but did not say anything more, just nodded silently.

There seems to be no flaw in this statement. It's just that he has a few more doubts in his heart. Is the so-called mountain god Xianxia Mountain itself? This kind of man-made disaster wants to be rushed with happy events? It is nothing more than trying to find an excuse to get married as soon as possible!

It's just that no one noticed at this time, the old man Wu who stayed in the corner had a strange face, as if he was puzzled and a little uncertain, and wanted to speak, but looking at the tense atmosphere in the lobby, his calloused hands were sweating, and he finally closed his mouth.

Perhaps, it was not that no one noticed that Li Zhao, who had been observing his surroundings, was keenly aware of the strange look on the old man's face...... It's just that his right eye turned and he chose to be silent.

Da Da Da ......

Xing Shan's fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, and his sharp eyes looked around, and he said loudly:

"Since today is the big day of the village chief's family, and it is getting late, let's act tomorrow. Early tomorrow morning, Lord Li 2500 will go out of the village with me to find the demon beast and kill it!"

There was murderous intent in his tone, and the temperature in the lobby seemed to have dropped a lot.

Li Xian solemnly arched his hand and said, "Okay!"

"The current form is dark and I am clear, we must not be careless, the daily vigil must be arranged, I believe that you will not be unable to do this matter Wei Zhutou, right?"

Xing Shan's icy gaze stared straight at Wei Zhutou.

"Wow!"

There was an uproar, and everyone clenched their fists in agreement.

At this time, there was a rush of running outside, and everyone turned their heads tacitly, only to see a man in winter clothes with a frosty face running in.

The man suddenly saw that everyone who was talking turned their heads to look at him, and he was so frightened that his center of gravity was unstable and he took three steps back, if it wasn't for Li Zhao helping him, he would immediately fall to the ground.

The man came to his senses and was about to say thanks, but he saw the indifference on Li Zhao's face, especially the indifference in his single eye, which was as penetrating as an iceberg, and his pupils couldn't help revealing a trace of fear.

"Is there something wrong with this big brother?" Li Zhao asked.

The man subconsciously swallowed and foamed, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly bent down towards the lobby, looking extremely respectful:

Originally, the village chief should have come to meet your lords, but now you really can't leave the mansion, so please forgive me. “

When he said this, the man glanced out, and the crowd at the end of his line of sight was seated.

"It just so happens that the village is now setting up a big flowing water mat, and a special place has been reserved for all the adults. ”

At this time, Xingshan got up and went up to the third floor, and his pace was very fast, and after a while, he heard a slight sound of the door closing.

"Whew-"

Wei Zhutou couldn't help but exhale a breath, looked at the man standing outside and said, "Okay...... We know, you go back!"

As soon as the man gave up, he left.

It seemed that with the departure of Xingshan in the lobby, the tense atmosphere had finally eased a little.

Wei Zhutou walked up to Li Xian and thanked him: "Thank you to the two or five hundred masters for coming to the rescue, otherwise with Xing Zhutou's temperament, maybe I would have my head fall to the ground at that time." ”

Li Xian's cold cheeks melted slightly, and he said, "I believe that this matter has its own difficulties in Wei Zhutou......"

In fact, he has many questions about Wei Zhutou's narration, in addition to not getting a good answer because he asked, there is another most important reason, that is, because he is an outsider.

These two people are the minister of public security and the director of the police station, and their relationship is directly subordinate.

Xingshan didn't speak, he was a person outside the system, and he tried to do as little as possible about unnecessary things, and these questions would eventually have a satisfactory answer.

Wei Zhutou hugged his fists again and thanked him, in a short period of time, he had already understood Li Xian's origins, and understood what this two or five hundred lord wanted!

He turned around and saw Ding Qing standing not far behind him, and walked over with a smile on his face: "I heard that you participated in this operation specifically for me?"

Ding Qing's face couldn't help shaking, and he arched his hand: "The villain relies on the care of adults in the yamen, and when adults are in danger, Ding Qing naturally wants to come here." ”

Hearing this, the smile on Wei Zhutou's face was a little brighter: "Okay, it's not in vain what I valued you in the past." ”

"The running water mats in the village are very nice...... Let's have two drinks. “

Ding Qing nodded hurriedly.

After speaking, Wei Zhutou took Ding Qing and walked out of the gate first, since the boss of the yamen spoke, the remaining fifteen officials, including Zhou Zhutou, went to the flowing water seat in front of him.

The five looked at each other, whispered a few words, and finally got up to follow, after all, the meal still had to be eaten.

Suddenly, the cramped lobby became empty, leaving only Li Xian and Li Zhao, who found a place in the corner and sat down.

"Any ideas?"

The corners of Li Xian's mouth seemed to evoke a smile.

But this voice sounded in Li Zhao's heart, and the power of the mind formed a bridge in a wonderful way, allowing the two to communicate with their spiritual power.

"First of all...... What Wei Zhutou said was a little different, Ding Qing told us in the inn that the villagers who disappeared outside Yuanye County appeared in Yanmen Village, so where are the villagers who disappeared now?"

Li Zhao's gaze was calm and calm.

At this time, Yuan Bao yawned and got out of Li Zhao's collar, and saw that the two seemed to be talking about something, so he jumped down directly along his arm, lying on the table and looking left and right.

"Hmmm......"

Li Zhao subconsciously stroked Yuanbao's supple hair, and the latter made a gurgling sound in his stomach, and he continued:

"That's the first thing that's wrong...... Secondly, there seemed to be no problem with Wei Zhutou's speech, but the biggest problem was that what he said was only what he wanted to say. “

"So far, we have not been attacked by any since we went up the mountain, are the so-called murderous demons and demon beasts true or false?

"Or ...... What is the connection between the killer and the monster? And what does the old man Wu seem to know? It's just that hesitation and doubt account for most of his expression. ”

When he said this, Li Zhao's mind flashed Old Man Wu's face, and he continued: "And this village is also a bit weird. ”

Li Zhao's tone in his heart was not high, his voice was orderly, and he said everything he found suspicious.

Li Xian looked at Li Zhao, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he said: "This village is indeed a bit weird, but is it because of the murder, or is it ...... We don't know about this for the time being!

And Xingshan's reaction was a bit strange. ”

"It's too bland!"

"It's too bland!"

The two of them said at the same time, glancing at each other and smiling at each other.

"Things seem to be starting to get interesting...... Everyone has secrets. ”

In fact, even Li Zhao and Li Xian have their own plans for this trip...... But they didn't expect things to get so complicated.

"Let's take a look first...... Since the village is quirky, it is better to try not to touch the food and water here. ”

Li Zhao nodded, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, and what poured out of it was a bunch of finger-sized blue fruits, which were grainy on the outside, and he divided them into three grains for Li Xian.

"It's almost enough to eat three at the young master's diet!?"

Li Xian stretched out his hand and took it with some doubts, and put his hand in his mouth to eat. The powerful digestive organs of the stomach melt the fruit in just one stroke.

His eyes lit up as he could feel a strong feeling of fullness rise in his stomach, followed by a gentle flow of qi and blood.

"Holy,, what the hell?"

Li Zhao did not express the slightest doubt about what the young master said, "I rely on", because Li Xian didn't say this word less after he woke up, and Li Xian's statement was of course a tone particle!

He touched the head of the ingots and said with a smile: "They are all picked by ingots!"

"Twitter-" I saw the ingots raise their little paws, looking like they were inviting merit,

"Hahaha...... You little one. Li Xian stretched out his finger and flicked the door of the little guy's head, and then his tone was a little serious:

"There is something special about ingots, and they help you a lot, don't expose these things. ”

You must know that the effect of the blue fruit just now is simply terrifying, with his appetite of at least dozens of catties of meat per meal, he can barely eat enough, but the fruit Li Zhao gave him, three grains are full.

It's simply a high-martial version of "Bigu Dan"!

"Knowing the young master, I'll be careful. Li Zhao said.

Li Xian nodded, and he won't talk about this anymore, the dog is no longer the child who followed his ass and could only shout "Young Master, Young Master", and his growth is not inferior to him.

After that, the two of them returned to the room on the third floor, next door to Xingshan.

At this time, the sky outside quietly darkened, but this village in the deep mountains was unusually noisy and festive.

In the depths of the village, red lanterns were hung high, filling half of the village with flowing water seats, and people sat together, drinking and eating meat, and the noisy voices resounded throughout the village.

It seems that the so-called murderous maniacs and monsters do not exist.
