Chen Lu was very happy, there were finally locals who could get to know about it, and asked, "We are very strange, how did this become an empty village?"

The bearded man replied, "This question can be asked at night, but it seems to be redundant now." I think you should have the answer. "It's a.

Chen Lu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, nodded and said, "It makes sense, you must know what evil it is." ”

The bearded man said, "We all know that we just don't dare to compete with them, so we have found a mage. The mage has been looking at you for a while and says you're fighting brute force. ”

Chen Lu listened a little bit right, and turned his face towards the mage. The mage bowed and said in the Western Regions: "I told all the masters, but I can't say that I am talking nonsense. ”

The barbarian scolded: "Where did you get so much nonsense?

The mage said, "This is a grain ghost, also called a grain monster, who rises at night. ”

Nalan's eyes widened and he said, "Grain can also become essence?"

The mage said, "This is only unique to the Western Regions. They collect the aura of the universe, receive the essence of the ten directions, study day and night, cultivate into an immortal body, and consume everywhere. ”

Chen Lu nodded and said, "You said clearly enough, do they also eat people?"

The mage said: "Over the years, I have dealt with them a lot, I have never seen them eat people, this year's batch is very strange, these are wheat ghosts. As soon as the barley was filled, they came, arrested a few people from this village, sucked blood and ate meat, and the people of Shiqiao Village ran away. I went home at night to get it, and I didn't dare to go back these nights. ”

Nalan said, "Why don't you find the government?"

The bearded man said, "I found a reasonable office." The inquisitor led the soldiers of the Thousand Households to surround the wheat field, and the bare place above it was done by the officers and soldiers. They poured the barley with water and oil and set it on fire. But before the officers and troops could retreat, there were bursts of screams. The officers and soldiers lost more than forty people. No one alive, no dead body......"

"Huh?"

It was Han Liu'er, Chen Lu saw him staring at him with terrifying eyes, slammed him with his hand, and then said to the mage, "It's okay, you go on." ”

This mage looked at Han Liu'er with a look of disdain, and then said, "It was the mage and the sect leader they brought who worked together to rescue the inquisitor and President Qian. They said that they had written to the prince of Muhe, and there was no follow-up to this day. We were from a neighboring village, so we had to come to the mage. ”

Chen Lu said, 'So, the mage has a way to kill them?'

The mage shook his head and said, "Those who do our business can't just kill the evil cults, we can only drive them away, the barley here will be harvested quickly, drive them away, harvest the barley, and this year will be peaceful, and next year will be next year, so we have to take one step at a time." ”

Chen Lu nodded and said, "In this case, my old man will go with you to see the excitement." ”

Long Gang also stood next to him and listened. Chen Lu said to him: "I'll go with them to take a look, you must protect the big camp, no matter which direction the enemy comes, you will come and kill no one." Nalan, especially pay attention to your step. ”

After speaking, together with the bearded man and others, he left the official road with the mage and walked towards the entrance of the village. There were already seven or eight people waiting there with a white horse.

When everyone came to the wheat field, several villagers had already removed a vacant land to serve as a legal platform. Chen Lu noticed that there were talismans everywhere here, and it must have been the mage who was afraid that these people would be taken captive.

The mage took the stage, took out the apricot yellow flag from the bag, and beckoned left and right. Chen Lu saw a trace of mist appear on his head, and two gold-armored people faintly appeared in the mist. Chen Lu secretly admired that this mage really has some way, he is not a charlatan who has nothing to deceive and eat and drink, let alone those who deceive the world and steal his name.

The mage wanted to protect himself first, and then took out the sword, and like the patriarch, he spit fire and incinerated the talisman seal, stepped on the gang, twisted the sword in his hand, and suddenly shouted: "Kill the horse and sacrifice to the sky." ”

There were already people waiting there, and they cut off the horse's head with a knife, and the horse screamed, and the two men put the bloody horse's head on the sacrificial table. The mage took out a small whip in his hand, recited the incantation, and shook the whip three times in a row, with a crackling sound, which seemed to come from the whip, more like it came from the distant sky, mixed with the faint sound of wind and rain.

The mage's mouth moved one by one, and he suddenly shouted, "I order you to return to your house quickly." After shouting, there was another whip sound, and the whip in his hand suddenly changed to a sword.

Chen Lu felt that something was wrong with his eyes, and he didn't see how his whip was replaced with a sword. Chen Lu felt that his eyes had not left his whip.

At this time, there were patches of faint black clouds in the air that were gathering little by little, and finally gathered into a large piece of dark clouds. Suddenly there was a thunderclap, a gust of wind blew, and the people heard the mage screaming that it was not good, and after a flash of fire, the mage was gone, along with the horse's head and the corpse.

The villagers were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy. Chen Lu shouted: "Don't be busy kowtowing, hurry up and go to the embassy camp, be fast." Only then did they come to their senses, get up, and staggered to the camp.

Chen Lu no longer hesitated, kicked out the eight heavenly steps with his left foot, and chased after him. He came to a place that seemed to be a small village, similar to the shape and architecture of Ishibashi Village. In front of a square, there was a large courtyard, and Chen Lu felt particularly towards the military camp in Kan'er City.

Chen Lu didn't dare to land, hanging in the air, looking at this courtyard. There were soldiers guarding the gate of the courtyard, and there were people walking around the courtyard, and he saw several tall soldiers patrolling back and forth. Chen Lu found a problem, that is, this gate is very special, no matter which direction or angle you look at, it looks like a huge ear of wheat.

Chen Lu made up his mind that once he tracked down their lair, he would never let go of these strange things. These beasts, not only eat people, but also specialize in holding food, the people work hard for a year, but they dare not come to their fields to harvest, what is the reason?

He wanted to fall in the courtyard, countless golden lights flew towards him, and with the sound of drums and horns, groups of soldiers of different heights rushed over, and there were also soldiers from the mission, led by Yao Bao.

Chen Lu checked it, there were six less, and the rest were there, he could breathe a sigh of relief, and then he had to retreat outside the courtyard and land, and was soon surrounded by a group of soldiers.

Chen Lu said: "Yao Bao, you lead the troops to retreat." Yao Bao was stunned for a moment, glanced at his subordinates, and looked at Chen Lu suspiciously, Chen Lu guessed that they had lost their nature, but fortunately they still knew that his name was Yao Bao.

So he shouted again: "Yao Bao, didn't you hear my old man talking?" Yao Bao shook his head.

Chen Lu couldn't take care of them at this time, and attacked the tall soldiers first, he guessed that these guys were likely to be those trolls, and immediately slapped out the Tianbu triple with his left hand, and a yellow light shot out, emitting countless golden lights, and shot towards these trolls, screaming, these people were like being blown up by a gust of wind, flying out of the air, and falling heavily to the ground, with a whimper.

Chen Lu didn't look at it, pushed and kicked his hands, and killed half of the other teams in an instant.
