Chapter 785: Tusi's Death
At this time, there are still villagers gathering towards the small building, no one acts alone, everyone comes in groups of three or five, each villager has horror written on their faces, some people come with torches, but before they get to the crowd, the torches fall to the ground.
In the midst of this pent-up tension, there was an abnormal calm in the night, and I could only hear the footsteps and rapid wheezing of the villagers, but nothing else, until a villager came a little closer to me, and I faintly heard the "crackling" of the torches.
It didn't take long for hundreds of villagers to gather on Xiaolou's side, and Min Du counted the number of people to confirm that all the living people were here, and then he opened his voice and shouted at the villagers.
I didn't understand the local language, so I stood aside without interest, and the next day the Great Witch stood next to me, looking a little cramped.
Since just now, there has been no communication between Min and the Second Dan Great Witch, and the Sensitivity has not even looked at the Second Dan Great Witch, the two of them were obviously still in harmony yesterday, why did they become like this after not seeing each other overnight?
Mindu's speech lasted nearly half an hour, and he did have the gift of being a leader, and in that half an hour, the villagers' expressions changed from frightened to anxious, and then from anxious to calm.
Although I also know that this calmness is only temporary, as long as there are some unexpected situations on the Baoding side, they will soon panic again.
But sensitivity can at least calm them down temporarily, which is already very rare.
Finally Sensitivity stood on tiptoe, pointing in the direction of the warehouse, shouting something. Two tall men walked out of the crowd, waving their arms at the others as they walked towards the warehouse, and soon all the villagers followed them to the warehouse.
Before the villagers had gone far, Mindu said to me, "This is Liang Luofei's idea, and she suggested that I gather all the villagers at the warehouse." I think she should have made the right decision, but I'm still a little worried. ”
Mindu's words were a bit of a mess, and some of the words were not pronounced correctly, but I still understood what he meant, so I asked him, "What are you worried about?" ”
Mindu was silent for a moment, and then spoke: "I'm worried that Renqing will attack the warehouse directly. ”
I nodded, "You're right to be worried, but if you don't gather everyone on the warehouse side, more people will be killed, and at that time, even we won't be able to stop Renqing." ”
Mindu frowned: "Luo Fei said the same thing, but why is this, I can't figure it out." ”
I said, "Renqing killed people to take their spine to make a bone whip, and I fought with that thing, and it was very difficult to deal with." Three corpses, three vertebrae, should only make one bone whip. However, if all the villagers can't get enough protection, Renqing will get a second or third bone whip, one bone whip will be enough for us to deal with, if it is two or three, Renqing will be able to walk sideways. Only by gathering the villagers can we effectively protect them, but if the villagers are scattered, it is easy for Renqing to attack the lone people. ”
Mindu listened carefully to my words, and he let out a long sigh: "Originally, I thought I was the smartest person in the world. ”
I patted him on the shoulder: "You are indeed very smart, I can think of this, not because I have a higher IQ than you, but because I have more experience than you." ”
I'm talking to Mindu here.,The next Dan Dawu came up.,He said something to Mindu.,Although Mindu also responded.,But I found that Mindu is now talking to Jidan Dawu in a very polite tone.,On the surface, it seems to be more respectful.,In fact, it's alienating the next Dan Dawu.。
Looking at the way Min and the next Dan Dawu spoke, I couldn't help frowning.
And Min Du also noticed the change in my expression, and after talking to the next Dan Wu, he turned his head to me again: "Luo Fei suspects that the Ji Dan Wu is also from Luo Zhongxing's side." ”
When he spoke, I glanced at Wu Lin vigilantly, and Wu Lin waved his hand at me: "Don't worry, I won't translate these words to him." ”
Only then did I ask Mindu: "What did Luo Fei say?" ”
Sensitivity: "When she examined the corpse, she said that the three people had taken a large dose of anesthetic before they died, but if you look at the whole village, only the next day the great witch would prepare such a potion." ”
It would be a bit arbitrary to suspect the Great Witch of the Second Dan for this reason, Renqing was an outsider after all, and no one could be sure if he was also proficient in the knowledge of potions.
Wu Lin interjected next to him and said, "The next Dan Dawu has been with me for the past few days, and he shouldn't have a chance to drug those people." ”
I nodded and gave a gentle nudge behind Minami's back, "Take me to see the corpse." ”
Minnuity nodded, silently walking towards the warehouse.
There was a distance of about a kilometer between the warehouse and the small building, and we walked for a short time to arrive, probably afraid that the villagers would panic when they saw the corpses, so Mindu transported the corpses to an old house next to Kumen in the morning, and the windows of the old house showed a flickering fire, and there were two middle-aged men guarding the door of the house.
When Mindu came to the door of the house, one of them said something to him, but he didn't respond, just shook his head helplessly, and then reached out and opened the door.
After entering the house, I asked Mindu, "What did he just say?" ”
"Another seriously wounded man died," said Mindu, "alas! ”
After that, Mindo fell into a long silence, and he led me up to the second floor, where the three corpses were already covered with sackcloth and laid out in a row on the floor.
Xian'er and Luo Fei were standing by the window to breathe, while Liu Shangang was standing in the middle of the room, holding an unlit cigar in his mouth.
I stepped forward, ripped off the cigarette from Liu Shangang's mouth, and asked him with a frown: "Why did you come here, who is watching over there?" ”
Liu Shangang rubbed his temples: "Toast is dead." ”
Toast is dead?
I stared at Liu Shangang with wide eyes, and Mindu, who was standing next to me, also widened.
I asked Liu Shangang, "When will it be?" ”
Liu Shangang said: "I don't know. At about two o'clock, I heard someone shouting outside the small building, so I went to the window to take a look, but found a deep scratch on the window lattice, which I checked at twelve o'clock, and the window was in good condition at that time. I felt that something was wrong, so I rushed to see Toast, only to find that he was dead. He died of suffocation, and he had strangulation marks on his neck, which were thinner than human fingers. ”
At one o'clock, I left the small building and went to the high wall, and I also looked at the situation of the toast, and at that time, I ...... He slept so soundly that the light on his face didn't wake him up, but if I'm not mistaken, Toast's usual sleep was very light.
In other words, the toast I saw at that time was most likely a dead man.
At this time, I heard a muffled sound of "poof" next to me, and when I turned my head, I saw Minda slumped on the ground.
He looked at Liu Shangang, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he muttered, "Toast...... How could it be ......"
At this time, the next Dan Dawu was also present, I grabbed Mindu's arm and pulled him up, Mindu was pulled off the ground by me, and stared at me with a pair of eyes, I leaned into his ear and said to him as fast as I could: "The news of Tusi's death must not be spread, for the sake of the people in the village, you must now pretend that you don't know anything!" ”
Sensitivity looked at me in a daze, and I dragged him to a bench and asked him to sit down first.
Luo Fei handed Mindu a cup of hot water, and Mindu held the soggy wooden cup, staring at the ground with a pair of eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Luo Fei winked at me, meaning to ask me what to do, and I shook my head at her.
I didn't expect Toast's death to have such a big impact on Sensitivity, and I don't know when Sensitivity will ease up.
I came to Liu Shangang and raised my chin at the corpse on the ground: "Did you do an autopsy for them?" ”
Liu Shangang nodded: "Renqing's methods are very cruel, they are simply outrageous, he did this, probably to keep his nerves active." ”
"What do you mean?" As I spoke, I lifted the burlap covering the corpse.
The corpses were lying on the ground with their faces sideways, their upper bodies had obvious collapse, and they all had a bloody gash on their backs, their skin and flesh were all turned upside down, and some of their internal organs were exposed. It looked as if their vertebrae had been torn out of their flesh.
"The ingredients of an anesthetic were found in the stomachs of these people, but the anesthetic only made them lose their ability to move and make sounds, but it could not limit their senses," Liu said. ”
I raised my head to look at Liu Shangang, who was facing the corpse on the ground and frowned tightly: "That is to say, when the vertebrae are pulled out, they can still clearly feel the pain." And this pain may have lasted for a long time. ”
When he said the last few words, the corners of Liu Shangang's mouth twitched.
You can still feel pain when the bones are twitched, which is too cruel.
I put the sackcloth back on and said to Mindu, "Find a place to bury them." ”
Min nodded very sloppily, but did nothing.
Looking at his dejected appearance, I sighed helplessly in my heart.
At this time, Liang Houzai asked me: "Didn't Renqing use his mental power when he was pulling bones?" ”
I nodded: "No, I have been opening the Heavenly Eye for the past two days, and I have not felt abnormal telekinesis." ”
Liang Houzai touched his chin: "It seems that Renqing's cultivation is indeed not strong, at least based on cultivation alone, he is not our opponent." Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken such a big risk to go to Baoding's side to get new bones. ”
I said, "The key now is what he wants to do, first refining living corpses, and now slaughtering villagers, what kind of purpose does he have." ”
"His ultimate goal is to find the tomb," Liang said, "and his current goal is to control the Great Witch in his own hands." ”
Speaking of this, Liang Houzai glanced at Wu Lin, and I waved my hand at Liang Houzai: "You go on." ”
Liang Houzai continued to say to me: "Brother Dao, have you ever wondered why when you went to the power plant, Renqing first attacked the Great Witch of the Second Dan, and then attacked Wu Lin, but did not hurt you? ”
I said, "It is true that he did not hurt me on the way there, but in the stone chamber, his bone whip almost killed me. ”
"Well," Liang Houzai nodded, "That's the problem." You wonder, why did Renqing just stun the next Dan Dawu at first, but didn't let the bone whip attack you. When you were almost to the square, why did he put Wu Lin to death again? ”
I said, "Don't keep asking me questions, just say the conclusion." ”
Liang Houzai said to me very simply: "Because he needs to borrow your hand to send the next Dan Dawu into the power plant, because only you can stop the evil corpses on the road." I have always felt that Wu Lin's true identity is the guard of the next Dan Great Witch. Renqing wanted to let the next Dan Dawu enter the power plant, and also control the Jidan Dawu, Wu Lin had to get rid of it. ”
I asked Liang Houzai: "Why did Renqing attack the next Dan Dawu?" ”
Liang Houzai: "In order to hold you and Wu Lin back, when I heard you talk about the situation at that time, you said that since the next day Dawu fell into a coma, your speed has slowed down. I think after you slowed down, Renqing had already gone to the statue and lured a large number of evil corpses to that place. He originally wanted you to fight with the corpse tide to lose both, but he didn't expect that those evil corpses were not worth mentioning in your eyes, let alone that his poisonous needle would not kill Wu Lin. So when you were fighting the ghouls, he released the bone whip again, this time, his purpose was to get rid of the two of you, and then Renqing should have realized that you were a bigger threat than Wu Lin. ”
