Hearing this, the three people in the room immediately had goosebumps all over their bodies. They had a creepy feeling.
That was hundreds of people!
A living person! It wasn't anything else, like ants.
"After that, everyone was afraid and reported it to the authorities. However, the authorities didn't believe us no matter what. They said that we were talking nonsense and chased us away.”
"Since then, the strong young men in the village have disappeared one after another. Some went missing when they went up the mountain to cut firewood, and some went missing when they went into the city to buy goods. In short, more than 300 people disappeared one after another.”
"Sigh, this is too terrifying." Lu Dayou cowered in a low voice.
"In two years, there were five to six hundred people.”
"Sir, when you went up the mountain and entered the village, did you see a messy grave?”
Di Renjie nodded.
"That's the population that our villages have lost! Since they were not seen alive or dead, everyone could only erect a cenotaph for them to pay their respects.”
"That's why there aren't many young people in the nearby villages. There's no one to plant the land, no one to gather firewood, and everyone is making do.”
"I don't dare to stay outside for long, so there's nothing to eat at home.”
"I see."
Di Feng then nodded. No wonder a grown man at home actually caused the family to be so poor. Lu Dayou did not look like a lazy person.
However, everyone heard Di Renjie sneer and turned to look.
"Hmph, I don't believe that there are any ghosts in this world!”
Lu Dayou was shocked. He quickly waved at Di Renjie and said,""Sir, please keep your voice down. Don't call the King of Hell over.”
"If it wasn't a malicious ghost, who do you think would have the ability to make those hundreds of people disappear?”
Hu Jinghui, who was standing at the side, was also deep in thought as he said,""Sir, we can't believe everything about the Netherworld, but we can't not believe it either. There are too many unknowns in this world.”
However, Di Renjie did not speak. He seemed to be deep in thought.
At this moment, Di Feng, who was at the side, laughed.
"What unknown things, what netherworld? At most, it's just some evil people pretending to be mysterious and deceiving people.”
"To think that you're Tangtang…cough, that, you actually believe in the ignorant views of these commoners?”
"Let me tell you, if you give me four to five hundred men, I can also build a ghost city on this mountain to scare others!”
"As long as someone gets close, we'll either kill or tie them up so that they can't go back and are trapped there. Then, the story of the ghost city eating people can be spread.”
"As long as we spend some money and recruit some desperate people, it can be done. What ghosts and gods are just scaring people. There are no ghosts in this world!”
Ding! Clear thinking, one step ahead, solved the clue, obtained 200 experience points!
Along with the sound of a prompt coming from Di Feng's ear, his entire body trembled, increasingly certain that what he said was correct.
Di Feng placed the bowl on the table and squatted on the chair as he looked at the shocked Lu Dayou and Hu Jinghui.
Hu Jinghui's expression was slightly ugly, while Lu Dayou shook his head in disbelief.
Only Di Renjie nodded in agreement.
"Oh, didn't we come to Youzhou Province to investigate the death of the diplomatic corps? A terrorist organization like that must have a certain number of people under their command.”
"Now that we've guessed that Youzhou Province might be related to them, why not make a bold connection? The organization that could make such a big move in Youzhou Province might be the ones we're looking for or at least related to them!”
"As far as I know, all the official forces around the terrorist organization will collude with them.”
"In this way, the soldiers and bandits will combine, and the underworld and the white path will occupy at the same time. They will form a powerful force that will control one area of land and oppress the people.”
"This kind of thing is not uncommon in the Western Regions.”
" The talk of ghosts and gods is a good cover for them. Some people even boast that they sacrificed themselves to kill innocent people for the Jade Emperor of the West. This is a terrorist organization!”
Di Renjie nodded his head in understanding and immediately looked at Di Feng in a new light.
"Brat, all these years of traveling have not been in vain. Traveling ten thousand miles is better than reading ten thousand books.”
However, Di Feng shook his head.”
"You can't say this the other way around. If you hadn't read ten thousand books, you wouldn't have been able to walk ten thousand miles alive.”
"The knowledge in the books will be the basic guarantee for you to travel thousands of miles.”
"Those who survive are always those who know more, or those who are lucky. The ignorant are always the first to die.”
"However, most people only have 55% luck, so knowledge will become the most beneficial guarantee for a person to survive and can be obtained through hard work.”
"Therefore, reading ten thousand books and traveling ten thousand miles, these two sentences are said side by side, not one after the other or the opposite.”
Hearing this, Di Renjie slammed the table and laughed."Well said!"
"Good! Hahahaha! Listening to you is better than reading ten years of books!”
Di Feng scratched his head in embarrassment and finally revealed a silly smile like a child.
"I read this in a book, hehehe.”
Hu Jinghui by the side also looked at Di Feng with an expression of having gained something in surprise, and had an appearance of admiration.
It seems that his attitude towards Di Feng has changed.
These words were indeed not something that an ordinary person could say. Hu Jinghui and the others were shocked by the impact of a new concept called the era.
