Chapter 197: Something Goes Strange

Seeing that Lu Shaocheng had already accepted the armor, the village chief of Duanmu suddenly led the whole village to kneel down, Lu Shaocheng was stunned, looked at them with some sneer, and said: "Duanmu village chief, what do you mean by this? ”

However, the villagers didn't seem to have the intention of getting up, Xiang Shaosi wanted to help up the village chief, Duanmu waved his hand, and refused: "Two young heroes, Gufang Village is a small village, last night the demon beast attacked and thanks to the two young heroes to help, and now the twelve spirit cards were suddenly stolen, this is not only a loss of face of the ancestors, but also a dereliction of duty as the village head, the twelve spirit cards are related to our entire village, and I hope that the young heroes will find the spirit cards for us, Duanmu is grateful here." ”

"Okay, I promise you, however, don't kneel, this is really tormenting us, I found the other eight baby corpses, if the remaining baby corpses are not found, I am afraid that the ancient square village will not be peaceful in the future, as long as these eight baby corpses are removed, I will think of finding the spirit card for you, everyone should get up." Lu Shaocheng always believed that it was not appropriate to let this group of people kneel and beg for themselves.

"Yes, it is our obligation to eliminate the demon guard, Duanmu Village Chief should get up first, you make us a little embarrassed by this. Xiang Shaosi also persuaded on the side, and Lu Shaocheng nodded again and again, which had the meaning of this.

Duanmu Jinyi saw that Lu Shaocheng and the others had agreed, so he ordered everyone to stand up, and selected a few strong villagers, and said: "It was too terrifying for me to see that baby corpse last night, so I selected a few villagers with greater strength to go with you today, in case something happens, I can take care of it." ”

"Well, without further ado, let's go now. Lu Shaocheng said, tightening his belt.

"Two young heroes, we have prepared breakfast, let's eat well and then go on the road. Duanmu politely motioned to the crowd to get out of the way, Lu Shaocheng nodded, only to see two village women walking out of the crowd, carrying a vegetable basket in their hands, which contained a lot of fragrant meals.

After breakfast, Lu Shaocheng and Xiang Shaosi led the villagers to other places in the village that may have hidden baby corpses, the village layout of Gufang Village is very compact, most of the villagers' houses are lined up, and there are two waterholes, one is at the entrance of the village, which is where Lu Shaocheng found one of the baby corpses last night, and the other is next to the terraced fields in the village, and there are many more locust trees in the village, although it is difficult to find the baby corpse in these locust trees, Lu Shaocheng is still very confident.

He decided to start with another waterhole first, and the waterhole at the entrance of the village according to the placement of the nine children's infant corpses, this is very likely to be the first infant corpse, and the other waterhole must be the end of the undoubtedly, Lu Shaocheng took the villagers to this waterhole, and found that this waterhole is obviously much bigger than last night, Duanmu Village Chief said that this waterhole is mainly used by Gufangzhai to irrigate fertile fields, and it is almost rare to use this waterhole except for the opening of the gate during the busy farming season.

However, Lu Shaocheng did not find any abnormalities from this waterhole, it seems that his previous guess was wrong, looking at the eyes of everyone's expectation, Lu Shaocheng once again gave everyone a reassurance, he promised to find the other eight baby corpses, otherwise he would never leave the ancient village, the villagers settled down, and the villagers took Lu Shaocheng to a place where there were locust trees, Lu Shaocheng and Xiang Shaosi almost checked all the locust trees, and did not find any abnormalities, which made the two feel quite strange.

After thinking about it, Lu Shaocheng always felt that he seemed to have missed some details, he pondered for a moment and said, "Duanmu Village Chief, are there other places in the village that plant locust trees?"

The village chief of Duanmu thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said: "Except for these few places, there are no more locust trees, mostly mulberry trees, jujube trees, this radius of dozens of miles, there are also some pine forests, and only some locust trees are planted in the village." ”

"This is strange, logically speaking, it should be under the locust tree, but I don't know why, I didn't find any locust tree that hid the baby's corpse. Lu Shaocheng said a little puzzled.

"Brother, you can use the eye of the sky to see if you can find the baby corpse. Xiang Shaosi came up with an idea for Lu Shaocheng.

Lu Shaocheng shook his head and denied: "It's useless, Tianyantong can observe the dynamics of the Dao Demon Realm, but it can't play a role in monsters or evil things, if it weren't for this, I would have already used Tianyantong." ”

"Lu Shaoxia, could it be hidden under other trees?" asked Duanmu Village Chief tentatively.

"It's also unlikely, these nine poisonous heart worms belong to the yin thing, only the locust tree meets this condition, and the other trees are simply not enough to raise baby corpses, so, I guess, it is very likely that I missed a certain detail. Lu Shaocheng looked at everyone with some worry.

"Don't worry, it's still early, we will accompany you to find it slowly, I believe you can always find it." "The village chief of Duanmu was afraid that Lu Shaocheng would carry too much burden in his heart.

Lu Shaocheng thought for a moment and said, "Duanmu Village Chief, there are people in the village who are often sick. ”

"Yes, there are several families in the village who are sick all the year round, and it is strange to say that this disease cannot be cured, no matter what medicine is taken it does not work, and the source of the disease cannot be found, so I don't know what kind of disease it is. One of the villagers interjected, and he sighed helplessly.

"But not only that, although these villagers are not as strong as us, but they are also healthy, but this disease is too strange, not only the sick is strange, but also some strange things often happen. Another villager felt a tingling sensation in his heart when he said this.

"Strange thing, what strange thing?" Lu Shaocheng vaguely felt that this seemed to be related to the baby corpse.

"Aunt Wang's grandson Ergou, fell asleep at home last year, suddenly walked out of the house, jumped directly into the waterhole we had just been to, and when we found it the next day, Ergou had already drowned, and it was far more than that, someone had seen a few strange-looking children in front of their house, but the person who saw it, also fell ill and died the next day, at that time we all thought it was all an accident, but now I think about it, it is indeed very strange. The villager hurriedly explained.

"Brother Shaocheng, do you think this will have something to do with the baby corpse?" Obviously, Xiang Shaosi and Lu Shaocheng thought of going together.

"Well, I think it's very likely, Duanmu Village Chief, please lead the way in front, let's go to the homes of those villagers where strange things happened. Lu Shaocheng said.

"Okay, these families are not too far apart, so I'll take you there. Lu Shaocheng searched inside and outside the house, and did not find anything strange, but this family was as they said, suffering from illness all year round, Lu Shaocheng felt a sense of loss for the first time, and he walked out of the house in a dejected manner, pacing back and forth in the courtyard of this villager's house with all his thoughts.

He suddenly caught a glimpse of a deep well in the corner, sighed, and said, "Could it be that all the people in the village drink water from wells dug by themselves?"

"That's true, that's right. Duanmu nodded.

Lu Shaocheng hurriedly picked up the bucket and took a bucket of water, he picked up some well water and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, he found that there was a faint layer of black light floating on the surface of these well waters, ordinary people naturally couldn't see it, but Lu Shaocheng saw at a glance that there was a lot of article in the well water, and he let Xiang Shaosi take a look at it again, Xiang Shaosi nodded, agreeing with Lu Shaocheng's opinion, Lu Shaocheng recited a spell, and the qi in his body quickly poured into the bucket of well water, and the black mangs flew out of the well water in an instant and turned into nothing.

Lu Shaocheng glanced at the villagers' houses again, and found that most of the materials of these houses were made of wood, Lu Shaocheng asked, "Duanmu Village Chief, what kind of wood are these houses made of?"

"These are all made of locust wood, because the material of locust wood is relatively hard, and the humidity of Gufang Village is heavier, this material will not deform the house, all the houses of the villagers here are made of locust wood, what did Lu Shaocheng find?" asked the village chief Duanmu.

Lu Shaocheng's eyes lit up and said, "I understand." ”

"Brother, what do you understand?" asked Xiang Shaosi impatiently.

Lu Shaocheng didn't speak, but ran directly to the house to observe carefully again, there are four pillars supporting the weight in these three wooden houses, each pillar is about the same size, Lu Shaocheng suddenly found that there are some slight water stains under one of the pillars, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all, he took a deep breath, then took out the incinerator and slashed it hard at the bottom of this pillar, everyone held their breath and didn't know what Lu Shaocheng was going to do.

At this moment, the well outside the door suddenly made a loud bang, and a huge column of water shot out of the well, and a huge splash of water fell on the ground like raindrops, and the villagers were all startled, Lu Shaocheng was even more sure of his thoughts, he did not hesitate to pick up the incinerating flame and cut off the entire pillar, sure enough, a piece of nail soul halberd was revealed from this pillar, and a red line was deeply buried underneath, Lu Shaocheng pulled up this nail soul halberd with all his strength, and a strange scream immediately came from the deep well.

Lu Shaocheng hurriedly ran outside the house, recited a magic trick in his mouth, and a ball of blue Gang Qi appeared in his palm, Xiang Shaosi knew that Lu Shaocheng used the water system Gang Qi, only to see Lu Shaocheng roar angrily, the whole person flew into the air, and the palm of his hand sucked suddenly into the well, and the well water jumped out of the well in an instant, and everyone gasped, only to see a baby corpse tied with red thread suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, this baby corpse was a little more hideous than what they saw yesterday.
