Chapter 278: The whole village is full of village guards
The special team that received them at the time also thought so. But then I didn't expect something to happen. Lei Ming said with a serious expression.
"What's going on?" I asked curiously.
If this kind of thing only has a beginning, then I definitely think that this matter is not to mention the demon king. It doesn't matter if you're messing around with ordinary demons.
But now it's different.
Lei Ming also knew that I was in a hurry, so he didn't delay, and immediately said: "This situation has been going on for seven consecutive days, because the first seven days have been fine, so all the people in the special team have been withdrawn." Who knows, seven days later the whole village died. Including the reporter who saw the strange sight. ”
"All dead, not a single one alive?" When I heard this, I was a little surprised.
"Nope." Lei Ming shook his head with great certainty: "Even cats, dogs, and livestock are dead." And the death is still very strange, without any external scars. The expression is also very natural, not at all like being scared to death or dying of fear. The most frustrating thing is that we invited a master who specializes in summoning souls to the scene. But I don't know if it's because it's too late to find out, or because of other reasons, not a single soul has been recruited. ”
Souls that are too weak or undisturbed by any resentment will automatically disappear after a while.
This is also the reason why people die every day in this world, but there are very few who can really become evil ghosts.
Because it is not easy for most souls to survive.
But......
"And then? Didn't you continue the investigation? I don't think they're as simple as ordinary dissipation. After a moment's hesitation, I said with a serious expression.
"Yes." Lei Ming nodded, but said with a very regretful expression: "But later, there were no clues in that direction." And you don't know the chief, many evil spirits and evil spirits will destroy themselves after taking revenge. Therefore, there are not a few similar things that have a beginning and no end. ”
When I heard him say this, I understood, which meant that this kind of thing happened a lot.
Neither the special team nor the Soul Suppressor were interested, and they were not willing to waste too much manpower and material resources to continue the investigation.
"Then why do you think this matter has anything to do with the Demon King?" I frowned and looked at Lei Ming and asked.
So far, at least, I haven't found anything to do with the Demon King.
"Because these villagers, except for the person who reported the crime. Most of them are people who are born with an incomplete soul. After a pause, Lei Ming raised his eyes and looked at me and asked, "Chief, you should understand what it means to be born with an incomplete soul." ”
Originally, I thought that Lei Ming was a little overly nervous.
But when I heard his words, I immediately raised my head with a solemn expression: "I understand." It is rumored that every village has a village keeper. This man was born with a complete soul, and some people say that he was punished as a village keeper because he had done evil things in his previous life. Some people say that he volunteered to sacrifice his soul to protect the village, which is why he became like this. But no matter what kind of village guards do exist, and because there are such people, the village will be safe. ”
"And the most typical manifestation of the village keeper is that he becomes stupid because of his incomplete soul, but he is born very kind."
"That's right." Seeing that I really knew, Lei Ming nodded happily: "But chief, have you heard that the village is full of village guards?" ”
"Nope." I shook my head truthfully.
In some places, because of the size of the village, there may be two or even three village guards.
But no more than three.
As for the whole village being guarded by the village, don't say I haven't seen this situation. There is no record even in the ancient books.
"Are you sure? Could it be mistaken? After pondering for a moment, I was a little skeptical.
Lei Ming was very sure: "No, chief, this matter was personally investigated by the Wind God and several of our hidden generals. It's because it's too weird. So I checked it many times. ”
"We are very sure that most of the people in that village, except for the people who reported the crime, are completely unsatisfied. Later, Fengshen also visited all parties to check. Prove that the village is indeed a madman's village. It's either crazy or stupid. ”
How is this possible.
His news undoubtedly shocked me more than the previous one: "Then no one sent them to a psychiatric hospital?" What age is it now, how can there still be a madman village? ”
Don't say I don't believe it, even the isolated and remote town I used to live in with my grandmother. The family of the mad patient knows that he will be sent to a psychiatric hospital.
Besides, a village is full of madmen.
This......
"It's also strange because the village is so remote. So the news we got was also known to a lot of people. But some people say that the people in this village are not crazy, they are just too superstitious and pretend to be crazy, believing in any sacrifice to live forever and so on. Lei Ming said seriously.
But the more I listened, the more solemn my expression became.
Then I had a not-so-reasonable guess in my mind.
"So, you mean to say that the Demon King has awakened, not just because of the end of the Dharma era. And because of the sacrifices in this village? I thought for a moment and asked.
While this speculation is unreasonable, it's the only thing I can think of at the moment.
"Yes." And Lei Ming's answer was the same as I guessed: "Chief, I think there is no unified voice for the information of the demon king." Maybe this village is a clue, but not necessarily. And knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win all battles. ”
"Hmm." I agreed with what he said, so I nodded: "In this way, when the results from Ouyang's side come out, you don't go with me." Go to that village, but remember not to go alone, you bring more people and be careful. ”
In fact, compared to the predictions of Ouyang and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
I think the clues provided by Lei Ming are more reliable.
But there is no evidence for Lei Ming's clues, so whether it is for the sake of the overall situation or what, I should go to the place provided by Ouyang first.
"Yes. Chieftain. Lei Ming obviously understood what I meant, so he didn't ask more, but immediately nodded and took the order.
It's just that what we didn't expect was ......
Fifteen minutes later.
I, Lei Ming, Ouyang, and Lin Zhenhua stared at each other in the conference room of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
In the end, it was Ouyang who took the lead in speaking: "Captain Lei, are you sure that you said that village is the place I marked out?" ”
Obviously, he really doesn't believe in a scientific researcher, there is such a coincidence.
Actually, I don't believe it either.
"Sure." After speaking, Lei Ming took out his mobile phone to navigate, and then the two addresses coincided perfectly.
Ouyang was silent when he saw this.
Lin Zhenhua spoke: "What kind of sacrifice is that?" Why don't I see a detailed report? ”
Lin Zhenhua has a good memory, and he can almost be regarded as unforgettable.
So he was pretty sure that the hidden general had not made a detailed report on the sacrifice. But before Lei Ming said that he had read the report.
