Volume 1 Changshui County Handyman Chapter 12 The Weird Village
After finishing speaking, Zhou Cheng glanced at the crowd below.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
"Set off!"
As Zhou Cheng shouted, everyone walked out of the gate of the Demon Slayer Division and ran straight out of the city.
Zhou Cheng was the fastest and rushed at the front, while the others followed behind Zhou Cheng.
It seemed that considering that these people had not yet entered the ninth level of martial arts and were a bit slow, Zhou Cheng did not use all his speed.
Song Tao followed Lu Jiuzhang on the road.
"Brother Song has been in the Demon Slayer Division for so many years and has rich experience. When trouble occurs, Brother Song remember to help me more."
Lu Jiuzhang participated in a mission for the first time, and no one gave him guidance, so he planned to get close to Song Tao.
"If you can speak, just say a few more words. I like to hear this."
Song Tao had a look of enjoyment on his face. Normally he was just a handyman in the Demon Slayer Division, so he needed to see the faces of the adults.
Among colleagues, who doesn’t know who’s background?
Song Tao just wanted to show off, but no one paid attention to him.
Now that Lu Jiuzhang is by his side, Song Tao has the opportunity to show off.
"Brother Lu, if you encounter danger later, you should hide behind me as soon as possible." Song Tao said firmly, "This is your first time participating in a mission. You are not aware of the dangers and have no experience."
"Those monsters are more ferocious than the last."
"They will transform into beautiful women to seduce us and lose our minds."
"I am a veteran in this regard and will not be easily confused by them. However, this is your first time encountering monsters, so be careful not to be seduced by them!"
Song Tao looked like he wanted to teach Lu Jiuzhang his experience.
…
Twenty miles is a bit difficult for ordinary people.
But for people like Zhou Cheng and the Demon Slayer Division, it was quite common.
Regardless of the reason why Zhou Cheng has already reached the top grade, the physical fitness of the others is also far incomparable.
However, everyone was slightly surprised that Lu Jiuzhang didn't look red-faced and his heart didn't beat after running for such a long time.
"The Miaodi Village is ahead. Several demon-slayers should have arrived two-quarters of an hour before us." Zhou Cheng said slowly, looking at the peaceful village in front of him.
Demon-slayers must have reached a certain level, usually the ninth level of martial arts.
Logically speaking, if these monster slayers enter, they will definitely fight with those monsters and cause certain damage to the village.
But it's a little unnatural to be so calm now.
"A team of ten people enters the area to investigate, and if there are any problems, alert them promptly."
After saying these words, Zhou Cheng broke in alone.
The remaining people stood together in twos and threes, and quickly formed teams of ten people, entering the village one after another.
…
It was eerily quiet inside the village.
Lu Jiuzhang's team entered not too early, as several teams had already entered before them.
"Attention, there are two corpses lying in front of you."
Someone in the team said warily.
There were indeed two bodies lying on the ground not far away.
There were no signs of fighting around, and the two people seemed to have fallen asleep.
Song Tao stepped forward and turned the two corpses over.
Only then did everyone notice that their faces had been sunken, and their entire bodies were as skinny as bones.
By the way, there are two holes in the neck.
Those two holes were originally blood-colored, but because of time, they have turned black!
"He should have been drained of blood to death!"
Song Tao analyzed, "This kind of monster that sucks human blood is very common. I can't tell what type it is for the time being."
"Why suck on the neck?"
If you don’t understand, just ask, Lu Jiuzhang said.
"Then where should I suck it? It's impossible to suck it on you, right? Are you so excited?" Song Tao looked at Lu Jiuzhang's third leg, and then rolled his eyes at him.
"You can't say this casually!"
Lu Jiuzhang waved his hand quickly, "I haven't married yet, don't curse me!"
"Old Wang, there are chickens here!"
Suddenly, someone on the side screamed.
chicken?
There are chickens in this place too? Doesn’t it mean there are no living people?
Is this also how this profession is called in other worlds?
Lu Jiuzhang hurriedly walked over and took a quick look and realized that he was wrong!
It is indeed a chicken. Like the two people just now, it was caused by being sucked dry of its blood!
"What's all the fuss about?"
Song Tao glared at the man.
"No, I'm a little afraid of sharp-nosed animals. I've always been like this!"
The man replied angrily.
Song Tao ignored him and began to analyze by himself, "Preliminary guess is that there are no living people in this village. But what surprised me was that several adults who entered the ninth level of martial arts came. Why?
No sound?"
"Could it be that the monsters here are very powerful?"
If that's the case, that would be trouble!
Even adults who have reached the ninth level of martial arts can't deal with them. They are little fishes and shrimps and there is no difference between them and death.
Traveling for dozens of miles, you can arrive at the monster's mouth and prepare food and drinks for you!
"Organize the team, move on, and join the others!" Song Tao felt uneasy. If he could join the others, his strength would be stronger and his safety would be relatively guaranteed!
It’s best to join up with Demon Slayer Guard Zhou Cheng!
With Zhou Cheng here, everyone has a backbone.
After the assembly was completed, Song Tao counted the number of people.
Finding something wrong, he counted again.
In an instant, Song Tao's scalp went numb.
When he counted the first time, there were only nine people left in the team, and when he counted the second time, there were eight people left in the team.
Did someone disappear without a sound?
Or maybe you are being blinded?
"Everyone, please state your names so that I can count the number of people. I'll go first, Song Tao!"
"Wang Gang!"
"Li Erhe!"
"..."
"Lu Jiuzhang!"
When the registration ended, Song Tao's heart sank again. Now there are only six people left!
But with his eyes wide open just now, he didn't realize how that person disappeared.
The weather was sunny without a trace of fog, and there was nothing in the open space behind!
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Song Tao's back.
The households here are not as dense as those in towns. There is one house in the east and one house in the west. There is a big gap in the middle, which is basically some big trees or weeds, and some muddy paths.
There are some vegetable gardens near the houses where the villagers live.
This is the standard Bactria village layout.
Although it is blocked, you can see what is happening a hundred or ten meters around you at a glance.
Lu Jiuzhang also realized something was wrong and walked to Song Tao's side.
In this blink of an eye, two more people disappeared!
There are only four people left in the field!
The fear of the unknown fills everyone's heart.
"嚜嚜嚜..."
Suddenly there was a strange cry in the air, followed by a charming voice, "I just said we would meet again!"
