Volume 54 Monster Hunting
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Mingxuan was a little abnormal, Ou Zhiyang and Chen Yiling hurriedly surrounded him.
"Nothing, these are just ordinary breaks, nothing special. Ming Xuan thought about it for a moment, and his tone became casual again.
"Shopkeeper Liu, I didn't eat anything in the evening, and now I'm a little hungry, can I ask you to prepare some food?"
"No problem! No problem! Little old man will go buy it now. Since Ming Xuan is willing to eat here, it proves that he will definitely take care of this matter, how can Liu Pingfeng be unhappy, and hurriedly ran to prepare.
Seeing that Liu Ping was opened, Ming Xuan fell into thought again, and his eyes were still full of doubts.
"Brother He, did you also find out about this problem before?" asked Ming Xuan.
"That's true, but I really don't dare to make up my mind, and it's too unbelievable, so I haven't dared to say it, I'm afraid I'm panicking. He Kui said truthfully.
"What the hell are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word?" Chen Yiling was confused.
"Well, look at the edge of the hole!" Ming Xuan said with a wry smile.
Being reminded by Ming Xuan like this, Ou Zhiyang and Chen Yiling immediately noticed the tooth marks on the side of the cave.
"This ...... Could it be that this hole was bitten out by someone with his teeth?" Chen Yiling also couldn't believe it.
"Brother Ou, what do you think?" Ming Xuan didn't answer Chen Yiling, but asked Ou Zhiyang.
"This is not the place to talk, Mingxuan, Yiling, Brother He, let's find a secluded place to talk. Ou Zhiyang said solemnly.
"Our abode is in a secluded place, where the three young heroes can move. He Kui immediately said.
The residence of He Kui and the others was a courtyard house, which was indeed a secluded place, and it was not far from the silk shop, so his brothers did not follow, but stayed in the shop.
"Can you say it now?" Seeing He Kui close the door, Ming Xuan immediately asked.
"Inferred from that trace, it does look like a tooth mark, but if the hole is really bitten out with teeth, who has such an ability? And the door is a whole side, and there is nowhere to put it down!" Ou Zhiyang expressed his doubts.
"What Ou Shaoxia said is very true! I can't figure it out, so I haven't dared to say it, after all, this conclusion is too shocking, although it is rumored that it is a monster outside, but after all, it is just a rumor, if this thing is spread out, I am afraid that this rumor will be confirmed, and the panic caused by the time is difficult to estimate, but no matter how this hole is generated, this strength is far better than our brothers, and we really did not prevent the silk from being stolen, so please ask Master Liu to invite another master, who knows...... But two evils were invited. He Kui's original intention was to let Liu Pingfeng go to the Great Chan Temple to ask for help, but the Great Chan Temple is too far away, and it takes half a month to go back and forth, which is enough time for the store to cause several losses.
"I've had a few speculations, but none of them seem to be valid, first, if it's really bitten out with teeth, the monsters have this ability, but they have a tyrannical temperament, they won't do it so quietly, and they won't do it for a few silks; Weapons such as tiger teeth can do it, but the problem is that if they have such ability, they will definitely not look down on a few silk horses, and they will not steal them several times, it is better to steal more at a time. Ming Xuan speculated, but rejected it again.
"The problem is still here, who would be so bored to fight the idea of a few silks, and it is one after another, it's really weird!" Chen Yiling couldn't figure it out.
The four of them suddenly fell into deep thought, this is a dead knot, and they can't untie it.
"Brother Ou, how much do you know about goblins?" Ming Xuan suddenly asked.
"All things in heaven and earth have spirits, under the long-term cultivation, they will have spirituality, so as to have incredible power, and can even be transformed into shape, because human beings are the length of all things, so many people like to transform into human appearance, for this kind of human and non-human things, people are used to calling them goblins. Ou Zhiyang explained briefly.
"Isn't it true that everyone is mixed with demons, and they can't see it at all?" Chen Yiling couldn't help asking.
"People are humane, demons have demon laws, naturally there are still zài different, I haven't seen demons, so I don't know how to distinguish, but it's not easy to become a demon, it takes hundreds of thousands of years of hard work, generally in the depths of the mountains, inaccessible places, so it's not so easy to see. Ou Zhiyang shrugged and said.
"Then as far as you know, what about their temperament?" Ming Xuan didn't have much research on demons.
"People are good and evil, and demons are naturally good and bad, and they can't be generalized, but because people have been burning and plundering all other things, they have no good impression of people, and some even have hatred. "Ou Zhiyang likes these strange things, so he still knows a lot.
"What about the general strength of goblins?" asked Ming Xuan.
Just like people cultivating martial arts, there are many ways, and there are various ways to become demons, some of them have been cultivated with spiritual power for many years, some of them have taken rare fruits by chance, and some of them have special abilities when they are born, so their strength will vary greatly, but on the whole, it still has a lot to do with the length of time they have become demons, but the weakest goblin is afraid that it also has the same strength as the level of human beings, and it should be the strength of the high-level of the capable. Ou Zhiyang continued to explain.
"Oh, I see. "Mingxuan finally got an idea.
"What? do you suspect it's the goblins?" Ming Xuan obviously wouldn't ask about this for no reason.
"It's not easy to break a hole in the iron gate quietly, and I do it three times and twice, and by the way, I can also stun the night watchman, but it's just for a few silks, I really don't know how to settle this matter, but looking at the tooth marks on the side of the hole, I think the only reasonable explanation is the demon. Ming Xuan analyzed helplessly, this matter can only use the elimination method.
"I think this kind of analysis is still inappropriate, even if the goblins are transformed into humans, maybe the way of thinking is different from ours, so they will do some incomprehensible things, but after all, they have been cultivating for more than a hundred years, and they have a certain understanding of the world, so there is no reason to keep doing this, it is completely illogical. "What elf would be so boring?
After thinking about it, all the conclusions were rejected by them one by one.
"Actually, you don't have to think about it so complicated, won't it be clear if we stay in the store when the time comes!" Chen Yiling said lightly.
"Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles, if you don't even know the opponent and act rashly, it is still not good. "Although the spirit is already a good strength, if you want to deal with the situation without preparation, you are a little bottomless.
"Alas, in fact, Yi Ling is right, instead of speculating here, it is better to take actual action, although I don't know how the opponent is, but one thing is still certain, it does not have too much malice. "If it has malicious intentions, then He Kui and his gang will have no way to live.
"Brother He, when was the last time it was stolen?" asked Ming Xuan.
"Just the day before yesterday, according to the time estimate, I am afraid that it will come once in these two days. He Kui hurriedly replied.
"Okay, we'll come to guard the store from tonight, and we'll meet this mysterious person!" Ming Xuan said with a smile.
Hearing that Xuan and the others wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, Liu Pingfeng was naturally very happy, not only arranged good wine and food to entertain them, but also promised that if they could solve the mystery, they would also be rewarded heavily.
After a full meal, they began to act, because things usually happen when ugly, time is not rushed, after some discussion, they made a proper plan, Ou Zhiyang and Chen Yiling stayed in the store, Mingxuan and He Kui hid in the inn diagonally opposite, the window was facing the door of the store, ready to respond, and He Kui's other brothers were divided into two teams, ambushed at both ends of the street, responsible for interception, everyone performed their duties.
The night in early spring is quite cold, although there is no snow, but the biting cold wind still makes people shiver, and once the hour passes, there are few people walking on the street, and it is quiet.
"It's so cold this night, others don't want to walk outside for a moment, I really don't understand why he likes to do it at this time?" He Kui stared intently at the movement outside through the window.
"I think that Liu Ping seems to be a relatively snobbish, and I think I'm quite mean to you, but I didn't expect you to be so conscientious. Mingxuan smiled.
"Alas, there is no way, collect money from people and eliminate disasters with people, Master Liu is indeed a little snobbish, and he also likes to bully others, but the wages for our brothers are not low, enough to feed the family, so we can only make do with it, but we can not do the things that bully people, sometimes we will shoot when we have no choice, but we will never hurt people because of this. "It's hard to die a hero without money, that's true.
"Is Feiyun Village close to here?" asked Ming Xuan.
"Feiyun Village is located in the southeast of Xinning City, about two or three hundred miles, not too far, and you can go back and forth in two days. He Kui said truthfully.
"Isn't Feiyun Village a den of bandits? Why did Liu Pingfeng still invite them, isn't that a plot with the tiger?" asked Ming Xuan puzzled.
"Feiyunzhai was indeed the stronghold of a gang of bandits back then, and it invaded Liaocheng for decades, making the people miserable, but it was flattened by a young man in Qingyangmen, and his vitality was greatly injured, and then he gradually weakened, and he was no longer in danger of hài place. He Kui explained.
"The nature of the country is easy to change, and it is difficult to change, and how can a bandit who has been a bandit for decades say that he can change it. Ming Xuan smiled faintly, thinking of his grandfather's sassy and heroic appearance back then, he couldn't help but be fascinated.
"Gu Shaoxia, there seems to be some movement. Just as Mingxuan was in a fugue, He Kui reminded in a low voice.
