"Because the ancient lanternfish can cause madness and dizziness with the powder on its body, it will leave some traces everywhere it goes.

And this medicinal powder can highlight the powder on the ancient lanternfish.

Grandma said that it had been sunny for the past few days, and there had been no rain, and I thought there should still be a little trace left.

Now, I was right. ”

"So this time the demon beast is really an ancient lanternfish?"

Ming Shenghua couldn't help but ask, and the light of stars emanated from his eyes.

"But why didn't you use it before? Maybe there will be a mark elsewhere too?"

Shi Xian shook his head.

"Grandma grandchildren have had the shortest time to have an accident, so there are still some traces left.

The drug's effectiveness is also time-limited, and traces can only be detected within ten days.

The other cases were more than 10 days, and it didn't work. ”

Ming Shenghua didn't know what to say now.

And hearing Ming Shenghua's previous words, Ning Xun also had doubts in his heart,

"But the ancient lanternfish has always been gentle, and will not easily attack humans, let alone feed on human flesh and blood. ”

"That's what's weird about it. ”

Shi Xian wiped his hands, got up and looked at the sea.

There is no wave, the fog is light, the water and the sky are reflected together, and the vastness is immense.

"Don't you think there's something missing in this sea?" Shi Xian asked with a little faint gaze.

Ming Shenghua and Ning Xun raised their eyes and looked in the direction of Shi Xian, and saw a flat sea, and their minds were stunned for a moment.

"Ah Xian, what are you selling? Why didn't I see anything?"

Ming Shenghua looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help asking, and Ning Xun on the side couldn't help nodding.

At this moment, a cool voice sounded in my ears: "There are no living creatures. ”

Living creatures?!

It was also a reminder of Luoge, which instantly made the two of them understand.

But then there was a burst of panic!

There are fishermen here who live all year round, and fishermen make a living by fishing, even if there are some monsters making trouble, but according to the normal living environment of monsters, there should be ordinary fish or other aquatic animals.

If it is said that there is not a single bird or beast in the sky, it can be said that the time is wrong, and the birds and beasts are not active.

However, the fish that live on the water are not seen, which is very strange.

"What are we going to do?"

Ming Shenghua asked a little dumbfounded, she hadn't seen this situation yet.

It doesn't feel like an ordinary task to complete before, just hunt demon beasts or find spirit plants.

On the contrary, there is a feeling of investigating the case.

"Let's go back first.

I can't find any useful clues right now, so let's see after dark.

There are still some questions that need to be answered by the village chief. ”

Shi Xian said to Ming Shenghua, she is now a head shorter than Ming Shenghua, and fortunately, there is some distance between the two, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to look up at people.

Ming Shenghua's mind suddenly flashed Shi Xian looked up at his appearance calmly, and suddenly felt a little small, well, cute.

"Okay, since you can't find any clues, then listen to Ah Xian, let's go back first. ”

Ask for the opinions of a few other people, and a few people in a group will go back directly.

And the doubts about a few people's beliefs, especially about Shi Xian's age, were all disintegrated in a few words of her.

No matter what you do, the most convincing thing is to be able to show your skills.

The group found the village chief, and by this time the sky had completely darkened, and several of the more wealthy families had already lit oil lamps, and the village chief's house was one of them.

First find someone to send the grandmother back to the house, and then Shi Xian began to ask the village chief.

"I don't know if this Penghu Village has been fishing recently?"

The village chief shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"Since the monster came, there have been fewer and fewer fish in the few fishing areas that frequented the closer ones, and when they got to the back, there was not a single fish boy in sight.

There are some farther away, but the farther you go offshore, the more dangerous it is to fish, and who knows if there are monsters anywhere else?

If it really happens, it will really make the sky unworkable, and the earth and the earth should not be. ”

Shi Xian listened quietly to the words of the village chief, silent and silent, and did not know what he was trying to write.

Ming Shenghua then asked, "When did this happen, and when was the first time the demon beast was discovered?"

The village chief was a little embarrassed.

"This ...... Xiao Xianjun, I can't hide it.

I don't remember it very well.

Everyone also suddenly found that there were fewer and fewer fishing.

As for when it was discovered......

The first to disappear at that time was the village mapo, a widow with no children and no daughters, and her husband died in the sea at an early age.

She is old, and she lives in the corner of the village, and there are usually few people to visit.

It disappeared for several days before it was discovered.

At first, I didn't expect that Mapo's disappearance had something to do with this monster.

It wasn't until later that there were a succession of missing or crazy villagers, and some people said that they saw it with their own eyes, and everyone wanted to slowly come to their senses.

Then he invited the immortal master of the Peiling Hall to investigate, and the immortal master said that it was a very powerful demon beast, and he wanted to go to the sect to ask the immortal for help.

Everyone slowly pondered it, maybe this has something to do with the fact that there are fewer and fewer fish fishing and the appearance of demon beasts.

Nowadays, there are not many strong men in the village, and there is a threat of monsters, so everyone can not go to sea without going to sea.

Fortunately, we still have a few mountains on our side, otherwise we would have been starved to death. ”

Looking at the village chief whose face was about to wrinkle into folds, the sad face on his face made people feel involuntarily heavy.

Everyone couldn't think of a good way for a while, and the room was silent for a while, and there was such a strange serious and oppressive atmosphere.

Ming Shenghua is a lively and cheerful person, after abandoning the influence of the previous life, he is becoming more and more cheerful and bright, and some can't stand such a depressing environment.

Therefore, take the initiative to break the atmosphere.

"Ah Xian, didn't you say that there might be movement at night, what are we going to do?"

"We didn't need to do anything, and by midnight we were divided into two groups to take a look at the places we've been to today.

If you can find some clues, it's best, if you can't find it, just go back and rest tomorrow.

After all, today is the first day we came, and whether or not we can meet the ancient lantern fish also depends on luck. ”

Ning Xun smiled and quipped at Ming Shenghua: "Then I'll be in a group with Ah Hua." She's always been lucky, so maybe she will meet her tonight?"

Ming Shenghua was quite happy to be praised, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was wrong.

"That demon beast must at least combine the strength of the four of us to be defeated, if the two of us meet, won't we have to escape?

If you accidentally start a war, you may even get hurt.

What kind of luck is that?"

I don't know what expression to use for a good-looking goose egg face.

Ning Xun touched his head in disdain, and also felt that there was something wrong with his words.

"That'...... Should we meet an ancient lanternfish?"
