Chapter 383: A Lot of Speculation
This idea opened Jonas's mind, and when he told the idea to the three knights around him, everyone thought that Jonas had read too many ghost stories at first, but looking at the strange corpse in front of him, they thought to themselves, isn't this weird?
Thinking about it this way, Vig and the others suddenly became enlightened, yes, since these people are so abnormal in their deaths, why should their deaths be inferred according to normal logic? As long as we know how people will die, and judge on the basis of this premise and the state of the corpse now, no matter how absurd the result is, then this answer must be unique and correct.

From a person's point of view, excessive blood loss will inevitably lead to death, although they have not learned how much blood a person loses before he dies, but they know this basic truth, and through the small pores on this rough skin, and the white skin of the dried corpse, judging from the current corpse, Jonas is not unreasonable.
"My lord, if this is the case, then who is it, and by what means can drain the blood of people from their bodies? "It's Gulliver who asked, as Jonas's knight, he has always been very low-key, and Jonas except for the coronation ceremony, only after the start of the war often accompanied Jonas, before that, Gulliver was responsible for training his soldiers in his own manor, for currying favor with the lord, this is obviously a very difficult job, but he is very stable, and strong, which is why Jonas will take him out, and now he, obviously encountered a big trouble.
In Gulliver's opinion, this judgment proposed by Jonas is not impossible, but Gulliver can't figure out how he managed to suck out all the human blood, Gulliver is a knight, for the death of humans, he sees more killing, such a strange death, even if there are some clues, but for him, it is obviously more in line with his idea to leave the problem to someone with a brain to judge.
"Yes, Knight Gulliver, it's incredible. Jonas's hand was still on the body of the dried corpse at this time, for him, he obviously thought more than Vig and the others, the blood was squeezed out of the body, it was nothing more than a situation, that is, there was a huge contrast between the pressure in the body and the pressure outside, causing the body to be inflated by the internal air pressure, or compressed by the external air pressure, in both environments, human beings would bleed to death, but looking at the scene in front of him, Jonas's guess was obviously wrong, because if this was really caused by pressure, then their corpses could not be so complete at all, but would either be broken into several pieces, or crushed into a pulpIt's impossible to keep up such a good state.
And these are thousands of corpses, each of which is not particularly different from this one, all of them have a white appearance, dry skin, and fragile bones, and this phenomenon obviously cannot be explained simply by scientific principles, Jonas thought about it, and proposed another possibility.
"Vig, you say, could this be the result of witchcraft, or alchemy, or something. Jonas said this, only felt a little crazy, although he had this speculation in his heart, but to say this, it was earth-shattering enough, at least after he finished speaking, Carter, Gulliver and Vig all turned to him, there was an indescribable fear in his eyes, it can be guessed that the reason why these people showed this expression was not because they were afraid of witchcraft and alchemy, but because they were a little worried about Jonas's current state.
"Lord Jonas, witchcraft and alchemy have only appeared in those ancient books, and no one has ever seen real witchcraft and alchemy, how could such a thing happen in a nameless mountain village?" It was Carter who spoke, compared to Gulliver, who was a little flustered, Carter was obviously more clever and read more books, unlike Gulliver, after Jonas said the words witchcraft and alchemy, the expression on Gulliver's face was almost like I don't know these four big words.
But knowing is knowing, for Jonas's judgment, Carter is psychologically or physically, unacceptable, witchcraft and alchemy, the two magical spells, he has also heard of it, the Holy See also set up a special institution hundreds of years ago to punish those suspected of being witches and alchemists, but these people were finally confirmed that they were just wronged, none of them are real wizards, and none of the alchemists have the ability to turn stones into gold, since then, witchcraft and alchemy, the two skills that were once extremely mysterious in people's hearts, have finally disappeared from people's field of vision, and now they are proposed by JonasCarter, apart from being surprised by Jonas's erudition, had no expectations at all about the possibility of both.
On the side, Vig's attitude was a little better than Carter's, and he didn't refute it immediately after Jonas opened his mouth, he was the closest person to Jonas among the three knights, if he also refuted Jonas's words, it would be a very serious matter, but for Jonas's statement, Vig was on Carter's side, for him, whether it was witchcraft or alchemy, he couldn't even believe it.
It's something that no one has ever seen, and people obviously like to deny them, or doubt them, and so does Jonas, but what could be a more reasonable explanation than to be weird? When Jonas asked the question, the three of them fell silent, apparently they had no new ideas or speculations.
"Since you have no new ideas, and you don't think that such a method of killing can be done artificially, then tell me what other possibilities are there? No, isn't it, and in that case, why can't we suspect witchcraft and alchemy, because no one has ever actually seen it? Who has seen these corpses before us before?
This matter is no longer such a simple slaughter, the things involved in it are definitely more complicated than I imagined, in this case, we must make bold guesses, as long as there is any clue that can turn people into such a thing, there must be no omission, and we must try our best to think about it. “
Jonas looked at the crowd and couldn't say other possibilities, and sighed heavily, the current situation is indeed at an impasse, this matter is no longer within the cognitive scope of ordinary human beings, even he feels that the most important thing he should do now is to sleep well and think about unknown problems, which is really an extremely physically demanding thing.
"Well, if it's witchcraft, or alchemy, what are we going to do, my lord? It's so well hidden, and there's no clue to it, and even if we can assume that it's a means of transcending our knowledge, we still don't know who did it. “
Carter said, Jonas listened to it and was noncommittal, Jonas knew very well who did this, but whether the behind-the-scenes instructions were as he guessed, Jonas was not sure, but what Carter said was also very reasonable, for how this thing was done, Jonas really didn't know, he only knew that without the help of scientific instruments, just with ancient technology, a person would not become like this at all, so this is definitely not an ordinary massacre, but a massacre with a purpose。
In fact, in Jonas's heart, there is another guess, that is, Dhigar killed these villagers for their blood, and the blood of these villagers has a very special effect on Dhigar, or Earl of Il, and even Jonas can directly guess that these blood are very likely to improve a person's strength.
The reason why Jonas made such a bold guess in his heart was not because of crankiness, nor was it groundless, but because he looked at these dried corpses and felt it, through careful observation and dissection just now, Jonas found that most of the internal organs and limb structures of these dried corpses were not much damaged, and the hearts of all the dried corpses were all broken without exception A huge opening, Carter, Vig and Gulliver didn't notice this, for them, people were already dead, and such a small wound obviously couldn't be speculated against.
But for Jonas is different, a person does not have any wounds on the outside, but there is a huge gap in the heart inside, this matter is very strange in Jonas's opinion, the heart is the human hematopoietic system, through this only wound, Jonas can't help but boldly speculate that Zigar killed these people for blood, otherwise why do these people have no wounds on their bodies? And all the water that occupies the largest part of the human body is gone, these kinds of questions obviously point to the standard answer of blood.
As for why Jonas deduced that this blood may increase strength, this is entirely due to the fact that Jonas has watched too many anime and novels in his previous life, in those Xianxia novels, blood is a very valuable thing, and as a person's level continues to increase, the power carried in his blood will also become higher and higher, according to this, Jonas speculated the blood of these dried corpses to this point, as for whether it is possible, it will be further investigated.
At first, when he first thought of this, Jonas also rejected his whimsical idea, after all, blood in science is just a transmitter of nutrients, and it has no big effect at all, but now Jonas has to think like this, this world has things like knights that cannot be speculated by science, and it is not impossible for blood to have a special role, not to mention that the social class in this world is still measured by blood, which has to make Jonas assume these unbelievable possibilities and think about it in many aspects。
From this line, Jonas had many thoughts in his brain, but these thoughts, Jonas was not ready to tell Carter and the other two people, the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, if it leaked out, the consequences would be unimaginable, so Jonas just talked about it briefly, and asked Carter and Vig to put the few dried corpses that were moved out of the follow-up again, and then carefully looked at the pit in the sky, and took some light-colored soil from other places to cover it, and after standing a few meters away and no longer saw the traces of being dug here, Jonas was relieved, and rode back to his camp with Vig and others。
This time back to the camp, Jonas did not say hello to Jonah, but went directly back to his tent, handed over the war horse under his crotch to Vig, and asked him to help him take care of himself, Jonas went back to his tent alone, Vig saw that Jonas was in a hurry, and did not think much about it, what happened today, even if he was himself, he felt very shocked, although Jonas was precocious, but after all, he was still a child, and it was already very powerful to not lose his temper at the scene, and he returned to the camp to give him a little personal space, let him slow down, and it was indeed as it should be, so Vig just glanced at the tent and left。
Jonas was sitting on his bed, not vomiting, but thinking about what had just happened in the village, and now that the facts of what Jona had said had been confirmed, he could already determine how these people were killed, and the only thing that remained in doubt was the tools that Dzigar used to do things, and the use of these people's blood, and there was only one way to know these two, and that was to witness them with his own eyes.
"How do you know when Dhigar is going to act?" This is a big problem, every time it acts, Dhigar obviously will not tell everyone about it with great fanfare, the slaughter of civilians is not a thing worth showing off, not to mention that Dzigar is still a close confidant of Count Il, if this matter is discovered by others, it will not only make Dzigar spurned by all the nobles but also make Count Il's reputation slandered, so when doing things, I will be careful and careful, I want to mix in, it is obviously very difficult, maybe there will be no return, it is also very possible。
A village in Dzigar has killed thousands of people, it is absolutely impossible to have only one massacre like this, tens of thousands of people may not have it, but tens of thousands of people, there must be, such unscrupulous killing, if they are a small nobleman, if they find out, death, it does not seem to be a particularly difficult thing, so thinking about it, Jonas retreated a little in his heart, although he was curious in his heart, but he always had to have the life to explore, if he lost his life early, then he could only go to Hades, let him tell himself.
For a while, Jonas really couldn't think of any good way, and it seemed that he could only wait for the right time for this matter.
