Chapter 211: Summoning Demons
Liu Daxian ...... Liu Daxian ......"
"Daixian!"
"Liu Daxian, where did you go on a dog day!"
Six miles out of the village, all the roads that can be walked have been rotten, and there is still no clue, the villagers are now physically and mentally exhausted, although they are still shouting Liu Daxian, but they are all weak.
Everyone knows that it is futile to keep looking.
This Liu Daxian, I'm afraid that he is already very auspicious, and he has already died somewhere.
Where can we respond to them?
Tsurumi Chuyun and Shen Yi followed quietly behind, although she didn't make a sound, she had already given up in her heart.
Liu Daxian is dead, and such a result must be accepted if it is not accepted.
Perhaps knowing that it was just a waste of energy to go on like this, Xiong Yingchun, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, turned around, and wanted everyone to stop and rest for a while.
"Township ......"
But as soon as a word came out of his mouth, the shouts of Yao Butcher and others came from a distance.
"Come on! Come on! We've got dead people on our side! ”
"Uncle Qin! Meng Laosi! Didn't you hear it! ”
"Hurry up!"
"Old bear! Ginger girl! ”
These voices came into the ears one by one, and the spirit of the villagers, who were still listless, immediately vibrate.
"What did they say?"
"Like...... Found dead people? ”
"Quick! Come on! The crowd turned around and ran towards the place where the sound had come from.
It didn't take long for Shen Yi and the six people, including the old witch, to find a few people from Yao Butcher, and the team led by Qin Ye also arrived.
As soon as the three parties meet, they immediately get to the point.
"Butcher, what dead man? Isn't it Liu Daxian? ”
"No, no, no." Butcher Yao shook his head and beckoned to everyone again.
"Follow me."
Then he led them into the woods above, and when they saw what was inside, everyone became a little unwell.
These three people are not from their own village at all, but outsiders.
Qin Ye squatted down and inspected one of the corpses with a frown.
"Where are these three people from, I haven't seen them."
"Master Qin, it's really strange to look at what they're wearing."
"It's from outside again."
"Jiang girl, come over and take a look, do you recognize these three people?"
"Know what? How do you recognize that your head is gone? ”
Seeing that Chuyun heard this, he also stepped forward to take a closer look, and at this look, her expression immediately became solemn, and she looked down and looked at Shen Yi.
There is not only dried blood on the ground, but also armor pieces scattered all over the ground, if these three people are just ordinary people, but they are still wearing armor, looking at the style of the armor, there is no doubt that they are the soldiers of the Great Liang, which makes Tsurumi Chuyun's heart beat hard.
And Shen Yi also became puzzled after a short period of stunnedness.
Good end, why did the Liang soldiers appear here?
He also looked at the map many times, and according to Shen Yi's own conjecture, Daoguo Township should be in an area marked with "mountains, peaks and seas" on the map.
Just by listening to the name, you can roughly know what kind of geographical environment this mountain, peak, and sea is.
Although Daoguo Township is not a place where birds don't, but the surrounding mountains are stacked on top of each other, and the terrain is steep, forming a natural barrier, there is almost no way to enter here, even if you come in, it is not an overnight thing to want to walk all over the mountains and peaks and seas, if not, this Daoguo Township will not be isolated from the world.
Could it be the strategic deployment of the beam?
However, the mountains and peaks are located at the junction of Jizhou to the south and Changzhou, specifically Changzhou north to west, Jizhou south to east, and the main area of the war between Liang and Yu is mainly in the north and west of Jizhou, and the two places do not look like they can be implicated from the strategic level.
Either they were deserters who came here by mistake and were accidentally poisoned by something.
But they are all deserters, and they are still wearing armor and running around, isn't they also looking for death?
The strategic deployment and deserters are not very similar, so it is the Liang State that retreats.
After all, the geographical environment of mountains, peaks and seas is there, and if it is used well, it is a typical easy to defend and difficult to attack.
But there is a big problem, that is, although both the Liang and Yu states tried their best to concentrate the war on the gray swamp, a series of problems such as a large number of displaced people, soldiers who fled the war, and many evils caused by negative emotions still brought immeasurable economic losses to the two countries.
You come and go, although you have your own wins and losses, but you will control things within a controllable range.
The two countries are like two balloons, with a needle in between, and once one of them is touched by the needle, it is a total rout.
How to say it, take Liang as an example, because of the defeat of a war, had to choose to push to the gray swamp, the Yu frontier of the million army can continue to advance at this time, the gray swamp of the above-ground mineral deposits, in this way, Yu has the initiative, immediately send people to exploit the deposits, and after mining the deposits, there will be money, money, and the confidence to fight.
Originally, both sides were defensive wars, and there was no one invading whom, but it was different when the ash swamp was laid, and with the huge benefits brought by mineral deposits, the defense war instantly turned into an aggressive war.
Fighting on someone else's land, all losses are borne by the other party, Yu can provoke a war unscrupulously, even if there is a big mistake in the end, it is just a return to the previous state.
After taking the Grey Marsh, morale is high, the win rate is greatly increased, and the possibility of wanting to lose is relatively small, unless intentionally.
Once won again, the battle line on the side of Yu once again advanced to the south, so that there were more refugees, deserters, and evil spirits in the territory of Liang, and it was difficult for Liang to parry the defeat and retreat, watching the war spread to Qizhou until Liang was destroyed, and then Yu won a complete victory.
And at the beginning, if it was the Liang State that got the sovereignty of the Gray Land Swamp, then the party that was destroyed was the Yu State.
This is the importance of the Grey Marsh, as long as you are not stupid, you can know that it is impossible for either side to take half a step back no matter what.
So there is no retreat.
Of course, you can also make peace, but after fighting for so long, both sides are on fire in their stomachs, and it is not easy to make peace.
This is also why, Shen Yi compares the two dynasties to two balloons.
His head hurt a little, and Shen Yi couldn't figure out what the soldiers of Daliang were doing.
As for the option of coming to catch the old witch, he never thought about it, being able to come to Daoguo Village was caused by flying around, and it was impossible for anyone to know that the old witch lived here.
Unless someone opens the eyes of heaven and directly determines that she is in this place, in this case, it is still a hairy play?
Prepare the coffin and lie down to death.
After the discomfort in their hearts eased a little, the villagers also began to come forward to examine the body, trying to find some clues about Liu Daxian.
And Shen Yi also looked at it, the three corpses, their heads were gone, looking at the torn and elongated skin and flesh on the neck, it was definitely pulled off by something with brute force, looking at the tooth marks on the neck flesh, a picture suddenly appeared in Shen Yi's mind.
Some kind of beastoid creature with a large size or a large mouth bit the head of one of the soldiers, and then ripped it off with a single force.
Looking at the blood that has coagulated on the ground, it is not difficult to reason that this thing does not have the habit of sucking blood, and it is thought to be a means of defending against the enemy.
Except for the absence of their heads, there were no other injuries on these soldiers, Shen Yi looked away, but the next second he was attracted by a spear not far away, he walked over, stretched out his claws and picked up the spear.
What really attracted him was not the spear itself, but the blood stained on the spearhead, which was scraped with his claws, and the blood was not coagulated, but still wet.
Because he can see at night, he can see a little difference in this blood, which is a little brighter than human blood.
Shen Yi put down the spear and looked into the distance, not only on the spear, but also in front of it.
He walked over and dipped his paw into some to take a closer look.
At the same time, on the other side, a villager shouted to Tsurumi Hatsuun:
"Jiang girl, these three people are from outside like you, you can see if you know each other."
"Jiang girl seems to be from a big family...... I'm afraid it's not someone from the family who found it? ”
And she just glanced at it and shook her head: "I don't know them." ”
"If you don't know it, forget it, continue to look around and see if you can find Liu Daxian." Qin Ye said, waving his hand and scattering the crowd.
At this time, Tsurumi Chuyun looked in the direction of Shen Yi, and saw that he didn't know when he broke away from the crowd, as if he had found something, so he stepped forward and followed.
"What are you looking at?"
Shen Yi raised his head and glanced at her face, because there were people around, he could only lift the paw dipped in blood.
At first, Tsurumi Hatsumo was a little confused, but then she reacted, frowned, took out the night bead to illuminate, and soon saw the blood on his claws.
With the light, one person and one dragon quickly saw the clue, this blood is very different, and the color is actually pink.
"Demon blood." Tsurumi Hatsukumo immediately recognized what the blood was coming from.
When the demon beast cultivates to a certain point, if it does not form a demon pill, the blood will appear, and such a change will occur.
Hearing her voice, all the surrounding villagers gathered around.
"Girl Jiang, what did you find?"
Seeing that Chuyun wiped a little demon blood from his finger for everyone to check, the villagers were a little puzzled after seeing it: "We have also seen the demon beasts in the mountain, and the blood is not like this." ”
"This demon is not simple."
"Qin Ye, what do you think?"
Qin Ye also scraped off a little pink demon blood and pinched it on his hand, his face was thoughtful, but after a while, he shook his head, and without waiting for him to speak, Shen Yi shook his head at everyone, motioned for them to follow, and then led the villagers along the blood stains on the ground.
The three soldiers have been dead for a while, and it is estimated that it should have been thirty-six hours ago, and the demon beast that attacked the soldiers was also injured and escaped, probably hiding nearby, less than ten miles away from the village, I don't know if Liu Daxian was poisoned by it.
If you see this monster, you will know a rough idea.
The villagers didn't speak, and followed Shen Yi very quietly.
But he didn't go far before the blood stains on the ground were broken, which was the last thing Shen Yi wanted to see.
He could only stop, turn around and wipe the demon blood from his claws to the ground, and then shook his head at the crowd.
The villagers didn't understand what he meant, but Tsurumi Hatsuun, who had been in contact with Shen Yi for the longest time, understood it and explained: "Xuan Li means that there is no blood in front of me. ”
"So what should I do?"
"Was Liu Daxian captured by this demon?"
"I'm afraid this demon is not easy to deal with, it's night, why don't you wait for the day to find it?"
"Ask Qin Ye first."
"Qin Ye?"
The eyes of the villagers looked at Qin Ye again, and the other party was at the back, his fingers kept pinching the sticky demon blood and didn't know what he was thinking, sensing everyone's eyes, he immediately looked up, took a deep breath, and said: "I suspect it's the bracelet bead Niangniang." ”
"What...... Bracelet bead girl, hasn't she appeared for a long time? ”
"If Liu Daxian was captured by the Bracelet Bead Niangniang, then how can I find it?"
"Qin Ye, what now?"
Bang Zhu Niangniang is a well-deserved ruler in the boundaries of Daoguo Township, if Liu Daxian disappeared because of her, the villagers would have no way to deal with her.
Qin Ye subconsciously wanted to give up, but in his mind, he thought of the three dead soldiers, how could he not know that the three of them were wearing armor?
Feeling that things were not simple, he swallowed back the words he was about to say and changed his mouth.
"Wang Bai, Wang Ken, Meng Xiquan, Liu ......" He shouted the names of several people in a row, all of whom were young and strong men from fifteen to thirty years old in the village.
"I'm going to ask you to go back to the village and bring something with you."
"Master Qin, please speak."
"The table, the bowl, a clean white cloth, a bigger one, a bundle of incense, some yellow paper, my mahogany sword, and finally six more live chickens."
"Knowing Qin Ye, we'll go now."
"Hurry up."
At the urging of Qin Ye, Wang Bai and the others, who were named, immediately left in the direction of the village.
Knowing what Qin Ye was going to do, the villagers all found a place to rest.
And Crane saw Chuyun come to Xiong Yingchun's side and asked, "Uncle Xiong, what is Qin Ye going to do?" ”
Xiong Yingchun didn't hide it, and quickly said: "Qin Ye is here to see the bracelet bead Niangniang." ”
"Oh." Tsurumi Hatsumo nodded and stopped talking.
Shen Yi glanced at it a few times, a little puzzled.
See the bracelet bead Niangniang.
How to see?
Practice?
That bracelet bead girl should be a big demon, will she really be summoned by someone?
I don't understand.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the sound of a cow came from below, and everyone looked at it together, and soon saw Wang Bai's group of people rushing over with a bunch of things.
"Master Qin, something has been brought."
"Leave it on."
Qin Ye got up, arranged for everyone to put down their things, and ordered Butcher Yao to step forward, cleanly killed six live chickens, and filled three bowls of chicken blood.
The curious Shen Yi watched intently.
Qin Ye used chicken blood to dye the white cloth red, and then lit three sticks of incense and inserted them on the table.
With the remaining chicken blood in his hand, he quickly drew a symbol on the yellow paper.
After doing this, Qin Ye slapped the table with his hand, and the peachwood sword flew up, and then caught it steadily.
The tip of the sword was a little chicken blood, and then pressed it on the yellow paper where the talisman had been drawn, and it was immediately stained with three pieces of talisman paper.
Qin Ye held a peachwood sword in his hand and danced in front of the table, his steps looked messy, but it seemed to have some kind of magic.
Shen Yi's eyes widened a little, if he changed the clothes on Qin Ye's body into a yellow robe, cut his hair short, and didn't look at his face, he would have the charm of Uncle Ying.
Just as he thought like this, Qin Ye shouted.
It was so sudden, Shen Yi didn't know how he shouted.
"There are many people under the altar, although I am afraid and uneasy, but now there are all things that are difficult to solve, don't blame the mother, great virtue and great grace."
"If Niangniang is not to blame, my wooden sword is stained with blood as a spoon, and incense is burned to guide the way."
“……”
"Bye bye, bye bratt, bye bye and bye are often happy."
"Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye on the long body of the secluded mountains."
"Bye bye Gao, bye bye rich, bye pye Bao Xiang Xiao'er smiled."
