Chen Yuan mobilized the village soldiers and searched all over the place inside and outside the village and in the homeless residential areas in front of the mountain, but found nothing.

The soldiers were scared to death, all of which happened in the front mountain, so for the extremely vast back mountain, the search was not rigorous.

Since Zhao Gongyi's death to today, it has been the eighth day, a total of ten people have been scared to death, and more than 30 militia members have fled.

According to this momentum, the stockade is afraid that it will escape completely.

However, Chen Yuan could not publicly announce that Ren Xiaoxiao was not dead, first, since the body was found, it could not be proved that Ren Xiaoxiao was not dead. The second is that Chen Yuan killed the lord and seized power, if Ren Xiaoxiao still wants to gather soldiers and horses to take revenge, it will definitely make people even more panicked.

Today, Chen Yuan and a young man in colorful clothes sat opposite each other in the conference hall.

"Thin feet. Chen Yuan smiled and said.

"Big brother. The young man answered.

This young man in colorful clothes, named Kong Linghua, was acquainted by Chen Yuan after he came to Hedong, and was later introduced by Chen Yuan to the grassland to join the Ashina Sect.

Chen Yuan, Liu Yunjie, Kong Linghua, and Xie Siyuan married Jin Lan, because they were all members of the Luming Sect from Hedong, known as the Four Masters of Hedong, and they were separated from each other in Xunmengzhai before.

Originally, Chen Yuan should have been called Kong Linghua's third child, but Kong Linghua was slender, especially a pair of feet that were as small as a woman, so he was called thin feet.

Although Kong Linghua joined the Ashina Sect, he has no roots and bones, and is still a martial artist. He cultivates cold true qi, and by making good use of the cold ice palm, he can condense ice needles and ice thorns to kill and injure enemies.

"Is there any movement over there in the war cave?" asked Chen Yuan.

"Those three demon kings are loyal to Ren Yaoxiao, and before the village is stabilized, it is not good to appease them, otherwise, the envoy will be cut down by them and even boiled and drunk soup when he enters. The entrance of the cave is still a little demon coming in and out, but maybe the elite has been taken away by Ren Xiaoxiao, and the cave is full of old and weak soldiers...... Kong Linghua replied.

Chen Yuandao: "Yes." Ren Xiaoxiao if he really pretended to be a ghost on the mountain. It's not good for him to counterattack, and that's where I'm weird. Could he have a shadow dancer?"

The stand-in of the warrior is called the shadow warrior, and if it is a cultivator, it is called the shadow dancer. The difference between the words is exactly the same, but the pronunciation is exactly the same.

Kong Linghua replied: "The training of shadow dancers is not easy, it is all the work of many years. We've known him on the grassland for so many years, and if we had, we wouldn't know it......"

Chen Yuan nodded: "Not bad." ”

He suddenly sighed, "Little thin feet." Come out for a walk with me. ”

Kong Linghua answered, and followed Chen Yuan to the empty floor outside.

The soldiers all showed a depressed look, and some people sighed in a low voice, and there was a sense of fear and depression in the entire dream village.

Whether someone pretends to be a ghost or there are real ghosts, it is a fact that people keep dying.

Some leaders have already put forward a proposal for relocation, but in this bitterly cold weather, it is not easy to relocate, and where can they find a place to resettle more than 2,000 displaced people? In the Luliang Mountains, it is extremely difficult to find flat land that can be cultivated.

Chen Yuandao: "I never believe in ghosts. ”

Kong Linghua said: "If someone disguises themselves as Ren Xiaoxiao. Even if it's just a god, and then making a bloody appearance to scare people, it can't scare people to death. It doesn't have to look almost the same as Ren Xiaoxiao. ”

Chen Yuandao: "It's just that those people are all bold people, even if they really see ghosts, they may not be scared to death, and being scared to death is too ......."

Kong Linghua said: "This is also what I can't figure out, I almost really thought that it was a fierce spirit attack......

Chen Yuan sighed, looked up at the sky, and patted Kong Linghua on the shoulder again.

"Remember when we were kids, we gathered here?"

Kong Linghua was stunned: "Of course I remember ......"

"The four of us agreed here that we would not seek to be born on the same day, same month, and same year. But he died on the same day, the same month, and the same year. Later, I voted for Ashina, and I took the three of you to the grassland, and then we were sent out together, and I instructed Ren Xiaoxiao to build a village here......" Chen Yuan said abruptly. The words are full of memories.

"The kindness of the eldest brother to me will always be remembered in my heart. Kong Linghua said solemnly.

"Hmm...... Don't talk about that. Chen Yuan said: "I suddenly thought of a question. ”

"What's the problem?" Kong Linghua asked.

"If someone pretends to be a ghost, they will definitely leave footprints. Ghosts don't have footprints, right? There is snow on the mountain this time, but there is no snow on the mountain, and the footprints are visible. Chen Yuandao.

Kong Linghua's face suddenly changed slightly. Nod.

Chen Yuan said again: "There are indeed a lot of people going up at that sentry point, but there are not too many, and if you check carefully, you can distinguish each pair of footprints." ”

"Big brother...... But what clues have you found?" Kong Linghua said.

"I also think that fear is just an emotion, and dying in fear is an expression of emotion. Is it really happy that people who are scratched to death will laugh wildly? Can a person who is scratched to death be called happy to death?" Chen Yuan said slowly.

Kong Linghua trembled suddenly: "Big brother...... What do you want to say?"

Chen Yuandao: "I just thought that if you use an extremely thin and hard needle to pierce the corresponding acupoints of a person, you can also make people show an extremely frightened look and die." However, if it is a metal needle, it will definitely penetrate the body, leaving a wound, and the dissection can also be examined...... What needle can go away without leaving a wound?"

Kong Linghua's face changed suddenly, but he didn't speak again.

"Ice needles. Extremely fine ice needles. After the ice needle is punctured, it will melt and disappear because of the warmth of the human body. Chen Yuandao.

His expression suddenly sharpened: "I know that there is a person's ice palm that can condense ice needles that are so small that they don't leave wounds, and then shoot them out. If others make the ice needle and then launch it by hand, then the small ice needle must be completely melted by the body temperature before it is released...... I also know that somebody has been out of their house for a few nights when someone has been victimized!"

Kong Linghua exclaimed, "Big brother...... Have you asked the fourth?"

He lives with Xie Siyuan, the fourth of the four heroes of Hedong, and when he goes out at night, only Xie Siyuan can see it. He only thought that Xie Siyuan was asleep, but he didn't think about it......

Chen Yuan said angrily: "Yes! I also found that there are extremely delicate footprints not far from the hill where the sentry died, like a woman, only you can have it! You must know that no matter up or down the mountain, it is impossible for the female dependents to go there! Thin feet, thin feet, because I trust you so much, what else do you have to say!"

Kong Linghua's face suddenly turned ashen: "But...... The mutiny, it is obvious that the sword is responsible, and if you want to talk about suspicion, it should be his biggest ......"

"One by one, what does it have to do with you pretending to be a god and a ghost, and Ren Yao laughing and not dying?" Chen Yuan's eyes erupted with fire, and he said hatefully: "Since you disregard the feelings of righteousness, you pretend to be a ghost like this, kill the brothers in the village, and plot against me, don't blame me......"

Chen Yuan's high-pitched voice has also attracted a large number of soldiers and leaders to watch.

Everyone realized that it seemed that it was Kong Linghua who pretended to be a ghost and killed ten brothers.

However, I still don't understand the inside story.

Chen Yuan was about to order Kong Linghua to be taken down and explain it to everyone, but he suddenly heard a crash, and the bronze bell hanging in the center of the village began to ring!

"Who rang the bell without permission?" Chen Yuan shouted angrily.

"It seems that someone threw a piece of masonry and hit the bell, but I don't know who did it......," someone replied.

"Damn...... Ren Xiaoxiao, do you have any other secrets in the village!" Chen Yuan gritted his teeth, he already understood what was going to happen next, and said angrily: "Execute Kong Linghua immediately!"

Kong Linghua turned into a flying lightning and fled quickly.

Chen Yuan sacrificed his natal flying sword and chased after him. Kong Linghua turned around and palmed, the cold air was surging, and he met the flying sword.

"Don't go together yet, but when!" Chen Yuan roared, he knew that his cultivation was not much higher than Kong Linghua, if Kong Linghua was bent on fleeing for his life, he would not be able to take down the other party within a few moves.

A group of bandits looked inexplicable, but the new owner of the village did not dare to disobey the order, and after hesitating for a while, they finally took their weapons, swords and guns, and finally blocked Kong Linghua, only to see Kong Linghua dodge a sleeve arrow, but was pierced by Chen Yuan's flying sword in the heart, and then was cut into meat sauce by the knife.

But the monstrous cries have already been surging over.

The herald shouted, "Master Chenzhai...... No, it's not good...... Someone attacked from the back hill and broke the wall behind it! It was Ren ...... who took the lead Ren is the master of the village!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was completely discolored!

In the back mountain, Wu Fengzheng high-fived and said: "The owner of the village is calculating." That Kong Linghua, after all, is just an outcast. ”

Ren Yao smiled and sighed: "Kong Linghua is stupid and self-righteous, although he is slender, he acts quite viciously, and he has done several times of raping and killing women, and I let him do this death-defying thing, which is also a helpless move." ”

Wu Feng said: "The owner of the village knows Chen Yuan very well, although Chen Yuan is not smart, but he is definitely not stupid, with Kong Linghua's trick, he can't deceive the other party after all." What's more, in order to let Kong Linghua be arrested, Ren Zhai deliberately did not mention the key to Kong Linghua's work, leaving Kong Linghua with flaws...... Originally, people were already panicking in the dream village, Chen Yuan would hunt and kill Kong Linghua, which would only make the villagers even more overwhelmed, at this time, another secret left by the owner of the village rang the big bell in the village as a signal, let us rush out of the Tibetan soldier cave to kill up the mountain, it is when the enemy's morale is the lowest to launch an attack, you can receive the best effect!"

Regarding Ren Yaoxiao's layout and calculations, Wu Feng analyzed it clearly at once.

Ren Yao smiled and nodded, "Not bad." My purpose is to capture Chen Yuan and his henchmen in one fell swoop, and recapture the Dream Seeking Village with minimal attrition. If you use the method of sneak attack at night, the loss will inevitably be huge, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Wu Feng smiled slightly, but secretly thought in his heart: Ren Xiaoxiao can still speak eloquently if he treats his subordinates as outcasts, and he is really a ruthless character! )
