Chapter 41: The doppelganger lacks skills, and the mayor wakes up

However, no matter how ambitious it is, it is vulnerable in the face of reality, Lin Yu stood on the roof and looked up to the sky speechless.

The town has been deserted these days, because although the missing people have been rescued, the demon spirit of the captives has not yet bowed their heads, so the townspeople rarely go out, and there are no small things, and only a few people go out together if there are really important things, as for the things that the town wants to go to Li County to buy some daily necessities, they have not been able to buy them on time as before.

Mayor Qin and the others who were rescued still didn't wake up, and it was even difficult to eat, so they could only feed a little porridge, and they also needed her to use manna to help maintain their body vitality, and it was impossible to understand the situation at that time.

In addition, Lin Yu wandered around the houses like ghost towns every day, carefully inspecting every place, trying to find the demon spirit, beating it all over the peach blossoms, but he didn't see any movement in the demonic qi anywhere, it can be said that he found nothing, and naturally he couldn't realize his ideas.

"Emissary." Hearing someone shouting, Lin Yu lowered his head and saw that it was Qin Run coming.

"Many people in the town have run out of oil and salt, can you ......" Qin Run became quieter and quieter the more she spoke, as if she felt embarrassed to trouble her.

Townspeople will store a lot of grain at home, and there is no shortage of it, but there is no oil and salt here, and the price of oil and salt seasoning is high, but it is indispensable, and the townspeople generally buy it together, so that it can be slightly cheaper, and then divide it evenly among each family, save it, and then buy it together when it runs out.

A few days ago, it was already time to buy oil and salt, but when the mayor disappeared, the demon spirit did not solve it, so it dragged on for a few days, and now that Qin Run is here, it is estimated that the oil and salt have been exhausted, so he has to buy it.

Lin Yu frowned, the demon spirit was still hiding in the shadows, coveting the townspeople, I don't know when I will do it, but I can't find it yet, it's really not suitable to go to Li County.

If she goes with her, the town will have no one to protect her; She's in a small town, and people who go out are easy to be attacked. But oil and salt are necessary things for life, and they can't be bought. At this time, she can't wait to practice the art of forming bodies, one guarding the town, and the other going to take people out.

"Tomorrow we will leave for Li County, you notify a few people to go together, and find a few more who are in good health."

Lin Yuzheng was troubled, and suddenly had an idea, thinking that although this was a dilemma, it was also a breakthrough point to solve the current dilemma, so he said to Qin Run.

She thought of a note.

Qin Run was a little confused, he was still hesitant just now, he was still thinking about waiting a little longer, why did he suddenly make a decision? And how many more people do you want him to find?

He also knew that this was not the time to go out, although it would not be possible without oil and salt, but oil and salt were important, if he hadn't been urged, he wouldn't have come to ask, so he was ready to be rejected.

But since the messengers agreed, he should go down and inform them.

Watching Qin Run leave, Lin Yu also went back to prepare and deliberate on the plan he had just thought of.

On the second day, Qin Run came with more than ten people, all of whom were young men.

"I've seen the messenger." Seeing Lin Yu come out, more than a dozen people shouted unevenly.

Although Lin Yu may not be able to name all of these people, most of them are familiar.

"Your name is Li Sheng, right?" Lin Yu pointed to one of the men who looked the most athletic.

The man seemed to be a little surprised, he didn't expect Lin Yu to know him, and nodded hurriedly.

"Qin Run told me that there is no oil and salt in the town, and I need to go to Li County to buy it, I really don't feel at ease if I don't go with me, but the town can't be guarded by no one, are you willing to take people to patrol the town?"

Lin Yu also learned during this time that Bingli Town, except for the mayor of Bingli Town, who was a monk, were all ordinary people. That's it, it's clear that there are demon spirits everywhere, and the town doesn't even have patrol guards, although when you encounter demon spirits, even if there are guards, it's useless, but you can warn at best.

"Uh..."Li Sheng was a little at a loss, "This, this..."

"Don't worry, last time the mayor of the town should have been injured by a passing demon, the town is fine, you don't need to do anything, just patrol the town."

After Lin Yu's reassurance, Li Sheng finally stopped being nervous, and when he was on an errand, Lin Yu asked him to pick nine people, which could be regarded as a patrol.

"You go to Li County with me."

Except for Li Sheng and the other ten people, the remaining seven people, including Qin Run, took the cart to pull things and headed for Li County.

In Bingli Town, Li Sheng and the other ten people began to patrol around with apprehension.

"Do you think it's okay to let the messenger take people to Li County? What if the demon spirit is still there? ”

The ten people are not real guards, and they have never patrolled before, they are only temporarily pulled, so naturally they can't do meticulous and serious patrols, and they don't know the bottom of their hearts, so they chatted after a while.

"Who knows? I hope not, right? ”

"Well, if only the mayor were okay, so that the mayor and the messenger could also be left alone."

"I don't know if the mayor is okay? Why don't we check it out? ”

"I just went to take care of the mayor yesterday, and the mayor hasn't woken up yet, but his health has deteriorated, and he is still hanging badly."

"Since the messenger has handed over the matter to us, we should patrol carefully, and the mayor is at home, when can't we watch?"

Seeing that someone wanted to leave halfway, Li Sheng objected, he felt that he had been entrusted with the task of patrolling by the envoy, although he couldn't control his companions chatting, it was impossible for them to do other things.

"Let's take a trip, anyway."

"yes, it doesn't take much to make a trip."

"The mayor is usually nice to you, don't you even want to go and see it?"

"It's just that you live far away from the mayor's house, and you didn't take care of the mayor, so I don't want you to take a look at it now." Li Sheng was indeed far away from the mayor's house, which also became a reason to refute him.

On weekdays, Li Sheng has a good relationship with them, so he picked these people, and today they all oppose Li Sheng in unison.

Li Sheng was helpless, seeing that they put aside the patrol task assigned by Lin Yu and walked towards the mayor's house, he had no choice but to follow.

Several people had already knocked on the door, and it was the turn of the man who took care of the mayor today.

"Hey, why are you here, I didn't get you today, what, you want to take care of the mayor for me?"

"On the other hand, today the envoy took people to Li County to buy things, let us patrol the town, and stop by to see the mayor."

"Did you go buy it? Alas, my house has run out of salt for a long time, and the birds have faded out in the past few days, so what if the demon spirit comes to the town? ”

"Isn't this for us to patrol?"

"Cut, there's a demon spirit coming, it's going to be your fastest runner."

The group of people chatted happily, almost forgetting the purpose of their visit, and when they finally remembered that they had come to see the mayor, they saw that the mayor had already woken up, and even came out of the inner room, looking at them with a smile.

"Mayor Mare, are you awake? That's great! ”

A group of people gathered around and greeted each other, but Li Sheng froze in place, feeling a coldness surging over his body.

Li Sheng felt that the mayor of the town also loved to laugh before, but he smiled very kindly, like an elder who cares for his juniors.

"Li Sheng, why are you stunned? Come here. A companion stood beside Mayor Qin and said.

Mayor Qin also looked at him with a smile and nodded at him, amiable, as if the hideous smile was only caused by the mayor's shriveled body, it was his delusion.

He hesitated a little, and walked towards the mayor with stiff steps, desperately telling himself in his heart that the mayor was terrible because of his physical injury, and he was actually the mayor who loved the townspeople, but he still couldn't comfort himself, and felt hairy on his body, as if he was walking towards the side of the terrifying demon.
