Chapter 164: The Maniac (Second Update, Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
Huo Xiu immediately looked over and found that there was a mist in front of him, and everything seemed to be looming.
The Ning Mansion Lord, who was at the front of the team, took a deep breath and said with a solemn face: "Everyone immediately dismount and leave the horses outside, the fourth team will stay in charge of guarding, and the rest of the people will immediately go to Xiaolin Village with me." ”
Everyone responded, turned over and dismounted, tied it to a tree, and then gathered behind the Lord of the Ning Mansion.
"After entering, everyone will obey my command, and those who trespass at will will be severely punished!"
The Lord of the Ning Mansion said, taking the lead in the mist.
After entering, Huo Xiu found that this was in a mountain col, and at the end of the mountain col, the outline of a village was faintly visible.
The size of this village is not small, with nearly a thousand houses, scattered in a circle.
But what is surprising is that this place is called a village, but there is not even a human figure, and it looks lifeless.
At this time, Qin Sheng seemed to see the doubt in Huo Xiu's eyes, and couldn't help but sneer.
"Boy, this is a village that produces well salt, and now it's a dry season, the water table is dropping, and everyone in the village has returned to Hemu Town. ”
"Oh, I see. ”
Huo Xiu raised his eyebrows and nodded thoughtfully.
Seeing this, the corners of Qin Sheng's mouth flashed with a hint of sneer.
"Let me remind you again, on the front line of the 100,000 Great Mountains, villages like this, far away from various border towns, are mostly blessed with unique resources. Either well salt is produced, minerals are produced, and some can be cultivated as medicinal herbs. One of our most important tasks is to patrol and protect these villages from the interference of demons and evil ways. ”
Huo Xiu thanked him, and then stopped talking.
Qin Sheng was bored with himself, snorted, and walked quickly to the front.
Soon, Huo Xiu and the others walked to the entrance of the village.
At this time, on the side of the entrance of the village, a huge stone was erected, on which was engraved the name of Kobayashi Village.
However, what makes people feel strange is that those three big characters look bright red, as if they have just been painted.
Seeing this, the Lord of the Ning Mansion stepped forward quickly, touched it gently, and then put it under his nose.
"It's human blood!"
As soon as the Lord of Ning's voice fell, everyone's faces changed. Xiaolin Village was uninhabited during this time, but there was still fresh human blood. Well, the only explanation is that it was left behind by the warriors who disappeared here before.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared from inside the village.
The man was ragged, unkempt, with vain steps, looking insane, and screaming incessantly.
"Ghosts, ghosts, save me...... I am Zhong Kui, the demon hunter, and I will arrest the demon if you don't come soon to tie your hands...... Fairy, it's fairy sister, wait for me. ”
The man was full of gibberish and looked completely insane.
Suddenly, a bald-headed warrior recognized this person and immediately flew out.
"Second Brother Sun, what's wrong with you? ”
However, the madman paid no attention to it and just screamed to himself.
The bald warrior had no choice but to put it aside, turned around and walked back.
"Returning to the Ning Mansion Lord, this guy is my fellow countryman Sun Yan, and he is also the martial artist who disappeared here last time. I thought he was dying here, but I didn't think that he would become like this. ”
The Lord of the Ning Mansion nodded, and took a big stride to bully Sun Yan's approach. Then he pressed his shoulder and watched carefully.
Before Sun Yan could react, he was controlled by the Ning Mansion Lord, and he immediately struggled desperately to break free.
But the big hands of the Ning Mansion Lord were like eagle claws, clamping Sun Yan's shoulders tightly, making him unable to move at all.
In this way, after Sun Yan struggled a bit, he finally collapsed from exhaustion. At this time, the Lord of the Ning Mansion also completed the investigation.
The Lord of the Ning Mansion turned around, his face full of solemnity.
"This guy hurts his brain and is already crazy. He Guang, you immediately leave here with your fellow countrymen and return to Hemu Town to find a doctor for treatment. ”
The bald warrior answered, and immediately helped Sun Yan to leave.
At this time, the Lord of the Ning Mansion said with a heavy face again: "Be careful, there is no obvious external injury on the head of that Sun Yan just now, but he is inexplicably crazy. It can be seen that the demons lurking here may directly affect your spirit. Everyone gathers together, don't disperse, and report any unusual behavior from anyone around you. ”
At this moment, everyone had already seen the strangeness here, and without too much explanation, they took the initiative to gather behind the Ning Mansion Lord.
As soon as I walked into Kobayashi Village, a warrior who had been here before stepped forward to lead the way.
At this time, Huo Xiu suddenly noticed that the surrounding fog seemed to be starting to thicken. In the past, you can still see a hundred zhang away, gradually, there are only dozens of zhang, and in the end, even only more than ten zhang.
The Ning Mansion Lord, who was walking in front, also noticed this, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of anxiety in his heart.
"Ye Heng, how long will it take to get to the place where the accident happened last time?"
This martial artist named Ye Heng immediately turned his head and responded, "Come on, we had an accident in the middle of the village last time. At that time, the fog suddenly lifted, and it was difficult to see the surrounding situation, and even the perception was disturbed. Then I heard the screams of many people around me, and I wanted to go to the rescue, but I couldn't find them. In desperation, I had to rush back to Hemu Town. ”
After listening to this, the Lord of the Ning Mansion looked at the situation around him, and his brows suddenly twisted into a pimple.
He knew Ye Heng's situation very well, as the captain of a squad, Ye Heng was already a cultivator of the Great Perfection of the Penetration Realm, and he was only one step away from the Convergence Realm.
But I didn't even see the shadow of the other party, and it seems that the demon lurking here really has some ability.
At this moment, Ye Heng, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. He stiffly turned his head and stammered, "Back to the Ning Mansion Lord, we seem to be in trouble." ”
The Ning Mansion Lord frowned, and immediately followed Ye Heng's instructions to look over, and found that they had actually returned to the same place. Not far ahead, there is a huge stone engraved with the three words of Xiaolin Village.
The Lord of Ning Mansion suddenly felt a chill in his back, and along the way, he sensed the situation around him, and did not find anything abnormal.
Now that they are back at the entrance of the village, it can only prove that their perception has been disturbed here.
Before, the Ning Mansion Lord thought very highly of himself and didn't pay attention to what happened here, but now, he was already a little worried. There is weirdness everywhere here, and it is not enough for him to be a clutch realm martial artist at all, he should bring one or two of the deputies of the Tantang Hall over.
Just when the Ning Mansion Lord was feeling anxious, there was a sudden commotion at the back of the team.
"Someone is missing!"
