Chapter 279: The Man Who Came Back from the Dead
Faced with a strange scene, Bai Ye felt an indescribable depression in his heart.
He looked at the Dragon Master, "Do you know what the reason is?"
Long Shi stroked his beard and didn't answer his question directly, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know why this place has become a three-way zone?"
Bai Ye chuckled in his heart, he had long had doubts about this, at first he thought it was because the village was too far away from the jurisdiction of the consortium, but then this conjecture was quickly overturned by him.
No matter how far it is, it only takes half a day's drive to get there, and the reason for the distance is too far-fetched.
The dragon master found a clean place to sit down, and said slowly: "This has to start from ten years ago, eleven years ago to be exact, you must have experienced this incident too. ”
Bai Ye immediately understood: "You mean the matter of the beast tide?"
"That's right. Long Shi nodded: "Eleven years ago, the beast tide suddenly broke out, and the three consortia of Yanchi, Xuanli, and Xiang were hit the hardest by the beast tide, and all the refugee areas were ravaged by the beast tide almost overnight.
At that time, the united front of the three consortia fought from the Xiang clan to Yanchi, and then from Yanchi to Yanli, before suppressing the beast tide back. I've checked your information, and you're from the area under your jurisdiction, so the refugee area you were in was the last to be hit by the beast tide, and it was also the least casualty. ”
This point was discovered by Bai Ye when he went to Mangshan, as if in addition to the refugee area within the range of Wuli, there were fewer people in the other refugee areas, and the shacks were more simple.
At that time, he thought that Yanchi was seriously exploited, but it turned out that all this was doomed eleven years ago.
He tilted his head and wondered, "But what does this have to do with the village?"
Long Shi picked up three stones from the ground and placed them in a triangular position: "This is the distribution location of the three consortia, have you found anything?"
Seeing Bai Ye's puzzled look, the dragon master shook his head, picked up a stone from the ground and placed it in the fourth position, and when the fourth stone fell, it immediately formed a diamond shape.
Bai Ye pointed to the fourth stone: "This is the village?"
"That's right. The dragon master patted off the dust in his hands: "After the three families worked together to resist the beast tide, they immediately launched an investigation into the cause of the beast tide. At first, everyone thought that it was just a rebellion of beasts in the nearby wilderness, after all, most of the beasts came from the wilderness near their respective consortia.
But after in-depth investigation, the consortium found that among these beasts, a group of beasts were more abnormal, they had very high intelligence, or they had extremely high strength, which was also the real reason why the three consortiums worked together to suppress the beast tide overnight.
Think about it, with the weapons of the consortium, if you want to suppress the beast of eleven years ago, you can fight all night, and it only takes a batch of automated weapons to work together to solve the battle in half an hour, but it is a night. ”
If Bai Ye hadn't seen the power of the weapon, he might have denied the Dragon Master's statement. But after really seeing all this, he knew that not to mention the beast that had not evolved eleven years ago, even if it was the white wolf he met at the beginning, it was an existence that could kill as much as he could!
Moreover, he had already learned the truth about the beast tide eleven years ago from Tong Hu's mouth, that is, the situation caused by the triggering of the seal between the two Xiuzhen sects and the release of the beast that was sealed a hundred years ago.
He suddenly thought, is the chicken master and the rabbit master also related to this matter? After all, with the wisdom of these two masters, they don't look like ordinary beasts.
After seeing Bai Ye's understanding, Long Shi said again: "However, this investigation is seven years, and the three consortia in the middle sent a lot of manpower and material resources to various locations to explore, and almost conducted a carpet search within a radius of five hundred miles of the three refugee areas, and they searched this village at that time.
However, the reason behind this was as if it was really a coincidence, and no one noticed anything wrong, until someone suddenly asked a question......
Long Shi looked at Bai Ye, his eyes seemed to be testing his juniors, Bai Ye thought for a moment and then looked at Dong Lingling, and took a deep breath before replying, "Why is it that all the refugee areas have been attacked, but this village is intact?"
"That's right!" Master Long nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that you are not a mediocre talent, and you can directly guess the root of the problem." In fact, the three refugee districts had already scouted the village, but no one cared about it at the time.
But when this question is raised, the cause of everything that is not normal has a source. At that time, the three consortia immediately sent a large number of troops into the village to carry out military control, and it was necessary to find out the root cause of the problem in one go. ”
Bai Ye shook his head: "I guess something terrible must have been found to make this a three-way zone." ”
As a result, Long Shi shook his head: "You guessed wrong, I didn't find anything, the armies of the three consortia all disappeared mysteriously after staying here for one night, as if there had never been such a force in this world." ”
Bai Ye's eyes widened, how could this be possible, how many people did the army of the three consortiums intervene, how many people did it have to be? And they were all facing a group of unarmed villagers, how could they suddenly disappear?
He immediately shook his head: "This is impossible, it is not logical!"
Long Shi suddenly laughed: "At that time, everyone thought the same as you, the Xiang family and Yanchi two consortiums directly withdrew from the investigation, only Wu Li did not give up, and sent someone from the department to intervene to continue the investigation, and on the second day of their investigation, I entered the village." ”
Bai Ye's face was almost without a question mark: "But how come I have never heard Dong Lingling talk about this matter with the villagers?"
Long Shi looked at him and didn't speak, Bai Ye suddenly understood, shook his head and said, "Impossible, this is impossible, how is this possible!!"
He already had the answer in his mind, but this answer was too unbelievable!
It's very simple for one person to keep one thing secret, but it's really hard for a group of people to keep one thing secret. If you keep a secret in your heart for too long, it will become a disease, and only by telling the secret will this disease be cured, which is a common disease of human beings.
But what if the villagers forgot about it, what would happen?
Bai Ye couldn't suppress his voice anymore, and everyone looked at him, but he didn't have the idea of lowering his voice at all: "So everyone can't think of anything, but they will have a familiar reaction when they see the soldiers." So Dong Lingling saw you for the first time in her memory, you were carrying a wolf, but there were no conglomerates at all!
No, no, no, why are you carrying a wolf?"
Long Shi looked up at Bai Ye and looked like he was smiling: "Because that wolf is left over from the beast tide back then! And Lingling's memory has been confused, the wolf was not resisted by me from the outside at all, but carried out from the village!"
Rumble!
Bai Ye only felt that his head was about to explode: "How is this possible, how can those things appear in the village, they are not ......"
At this time, he suddenly thought of the seal, weren't those beasts sealed, and where was the location of the seal?
At this time, if he didn't know where the seal was, he could find a stone and hit him to death!
Bai Ye hurriedly asked, "What about the amnesia, how can the villagers' amnesia be explained?"
Dong Lingling suddenly walked in front of the stone mill where the female corpse was sitting, and with a long sword, the stone mill immediately dispersed, revealing a complex circular pattern at the bottom.
The patterns are full of complex and dense spells, similar to Hai Qi's spells, but completely different, as if they are not from this world.
If it is said that the search for the beast tide is concerned, then the discovery of this spell should be regarded as the end, and Bai Ye is very sure that this is the place where the beast tide was sealed in the first place.
But what role do Dong Lingling and the villagers play in this, and why do they have amnesia?
And if this is the epicenter of the beast tide, how can these villagers be spared?
He looked at Dong Lingling, and the other party's voice floated slowly, nice but extraordinarily heavy: "Because ......"
She tilted her head and said with tears streaming down her cheeks, as if something was holding her back and preventing her from telling why.
Suddenly, a voice came from the upper reaches of the dark river: "Because, because those villagers have long since died, what you see now is just the person who manifested in my junior sister's dream." ”
Bai Ye hurriedly looked upstream, the sickle was already in his hand, and he saw a figure slowly walking out of the depths of the darkness, and under the light of the flashlight, this figure gradually became clear.
At first glance, this person is a little similar to Le Shan, but his eyes are much sharper than Le Shan, and the scar on his face is particularly hideous. He immediately understood that this should be a good charity.
"Teacher, I haven't seen you for three years, I can't imagine that you are still here to take care of my junior sister. ”
The dragon master's eyes narrowed: "Le Hao Shi, how did you know that we were here?"
"Although you didn't allow me to come down three years ago, I knew that there must be a secret in this inside, and after three years of waiting, I finally got my chance. ”
Le Haoshi's sharp eyes looked at Master Long: "Teacher, there are no reinforcements to come over now." Do you think hiding in the back village will attract my attention, I've been waiting here for a long time. ”
The dragon master stroked his beard: "So from the front of the formal firefight, you are looking for a chance to enter here?"
"That's right. Le Haoshi nodded with a smile, and then looked at Dong Yi: "Dong Yi, do you remember me?"
Dong Yi's eyes were first dazed, and then turned into horror: "It's you, it's you, the executioner!"
He stepped back frantically, his watch twisted with horror.
However, Le Haoshi did not look at Dong Yi again, but looked at Bai Ye: "When we meet for the first time, my name is Le Haoshi, and I am Leshan's eldest brother, thanks to you for taking care of my younger brother in the ruins." In return, I can answer your question. ”
The white leaf sickle was held a little tighter, and the person in front of him gave him the feeling of being very dangerous, even more dangerous than the feeling he had when he met Zong Heng!
He said coldly: "I don't have anything to ask you, if you want to fight, I don't mind being your opponent." ”
The corners of Le Haoshi's mouth rose, and suddenly his hand was raised, and a strong palm wind whistled towards Dong Yi in the back.
Bai Ye could even see the restless energy particles in the palm wind, if this palm hit Dong Yi, I am afraid that he would die immediately!
"Get out of the way!" Bai Ye yelled at Chao Dong Yi and rushed over, if Dong Yi was killed at this time, where would he go to complete his mission?
Moreover, why can you cut innocent people without saying a word!
But his speed was still a beat slower, and the palm wind directly penetrated Dong Yi's body, beating his body like a curved shrimp.
Dong Yi didn't even have time to speak, his eyes looked at Le Haoshi unwillingly, and then fell to the side, completely out of breath.
Bai Ye's heart suddenly cooled by half, and he was still half a beat slower.
But why haven't I heard the sound of the mission failure, and I haven't seen Dong Lingling's overreaction, I'm afraid that Dong Lingling's biggest reaction when Dong is killed, but the other party stood there, quietly watching Le Haoshi.
The next moment, something unexpected happened to Bai Ye.
Dong Yi's body suddenly turned into a burst of light and disappeared, and half a minute later, there was a sudden sound of splashing in the waterhole, and I saw that Dong Yi, who had disappeared just now, actually appeared from the waterhole!
After he climbed up to the pool, the water automatically evaporated, and he walked towards Dong Lingling mechanically, and when he walked to Dong Lingling's side, his wooden eyes suddenly returned to clarity!
"Hey, where is Lingling here, why is everyone here?"
Le Haoshi looked at Bai Ye with a smile: "Now, do you understand?"
