The moonlight was cold and thin like smoke.
Silent Village.
As the name suggested, the village was unusually quiet.
Every household shut their doors tightly. Yellow talismans, peach wood, and Eight Trigrams mirrors were hung in the courtyard to exorcise evil spirits.
He even smeared the black dog's blood on the door.
Under the bright moonlight, it looked gloomy and terrifying.
Lin Hao and Ninth Uncle, who had rushed over, saw this scene, and their pitch-black pupils constricted.
"Junior brother, from the looks of it, something has happened here!”At this moment, Ninth Uncle's expression was solemn.
Lin Hao walked in front, stepping on the limestone road. With every step he took, he sized up the situation of each household.
Black dog's blood?
Talismans?
Eight Trigrams Mirror?
These were all items used by Warlocks to exorcise evil spirits!
Now, they were all hung in every household. They had definitely encountered a troublesome ferocious creature.
"Senior Brother, if I'm not guessing, there's a high chance that the village has encountered an evil spirit…Let's go and find out what's going on.”
Ninth Uncle nodded in agreement." Alright, let's go over and take a look. However, if we want to ask, we have to find a small family.”
It was obvious that Ninth Uncle was experienced and knew everything!
"Alright."
Then, Lin Hao and Ninth Uncle walked side by side until they arrived at a relatively remote door in the village and pushed it hard.
The door was blocked by a wooden stake and could not be pushed open!
"Junior Brother, what should we do? The people here seemed to be very cautious.”
Ninth Uncle stood on tiptoe and glanced around.
Lin Hao shrugged." What else can we do? Let's jump over the wall and find someone to ask about the location of the wild bamboo forest. Otherwise, we won't be able to find it even if we search blindly for the entire night.”
At this moment, he felt extremely helpless towards his senior brother!
On the way, Shixiong spoke eloquently, recounting the past events in the Silent Village. He was extremely familiar with the Silent Village.
However, when he was defending against the village, he was instantly dumbfounded!
Due to the age and the fact that the village had been renovated, the appearance of the village was completely new. Shixiong was not familiar with it.
Otherwise, why would he ask someone?
When Ninth Uncle heard this, he looked troubled." Junior Brother, this isn't good, right? We'll climb over the wall without permission.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Hao rolled his eyes." Senior Brother, don't think too much. The main household is at home. We're just asking about something.”
As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves, looked up at the earthen wall, and took a few steps back.
"Moreover, if we get anything out of them, we can help them solve it. If they tell us the location of the wild bamboo forest, wouldn't we be helping each other?”
Err…
When these words came out, Ninth Uncle was speechless!
This was indeed reasonable.
"Junior brother, then you…"
Before he could say anything, Lin Hao jumped up and tapped the ground with his toes. He flipped over the mud wall in an instant and landed steadily on the ground. He moved the wooden stake away and opened the door. He waved at Ninth Uncle." Senior Brother, don't just stand there. Come in."”
"Good!"
Ninth Uncle walked into the courtyard and shouted at the top of his voice,"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
Silence…
Silence…
The courtyard suddenly fell into a strange silence, as if one could hear a pin drop.
No one?
There were still people who ignored them!
This made Ninth Uncle extremely embarrassed.
At this moment, Lin Hao stepped forward." Senior Brother, let me do it."”
"We have no ill intentions. We just want to ask you something.”
"Look…we're wearing Daoist robes. Actually, we're Daoist priests, and we're here to take a look.”
From the decorations in the courtyard, it could be concluded that... there was definitely a vicious creature here!
What Lin Hao said now clearly indicated that he was a Daoist priest!
In this way, the name of the Silent Village would have some trust in him.
Squeak squeak…
Squeak squeak…
As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, not only did the sound of the door being pushed open come from this courtyard, but the doors nearby also pushed open one after another. Heads popped out and looked at Lin Hao and Ninth Uncle in unison.
"Are you really Taoist priests? A Taoist priest who can subdue demons?"
Lin Hao and Ninth Uncle looked at each other and said in unison,""Of course."
As he spoke, Lin Hao gave Ninth Uncle a look.
Uncle Nine understood. He held the yellow talisman between his index finger and middle finger. With a flick of his wrist, the talisman lit up with a bang. The flame drew an arc, looking magnificent.
This move was reflected in the eyes of the villagers of the Silent Village, causing them to be greatly shocked, excited, and happy.
Plop...
Plop...
In the next moment, the villagers rushed into the courtyard and knelt in front of Lin Hao and Ninth Uncle.
"Daoist Priest, please save us. Otherwise, we'll all be eaten by that demon.”
"That's right, please save us. Those demons treated us as food and even swallowed our children.”
"Please kill them quickly, or our village will be eaten.”
………………………………
Her voice was sobbing, mixed with helplessness and desolation.
Hmm?
Monsters?
When Lin Hao heard this, he was surprised.
The Prince's mansion had once pulled weeds from the Silent Village, which led to the appearance of the pig demon in the pigsty!
Now, a monster had reappeared in Silent Village.
He couldn't help but connect it to everything, and the clue to the connection…was that unknown crystal.
At this moment, Ninth Uncle seemed to have thought of this as well. He frowned and said," Junior Brother, it looks like we have to intervene in this matter.”
Lin Hao nodded." Yes, but we have to ask about the details first.”
He didn't know the whole story!
How was this matter resolved?
Then, he took a few steps forward and asked directly,"Don't talk nonsense. Pick a representative and tell us in detail.”
The villagers looked at each other.
After a long time, an old man with a wrinkled face and a walking stick walked out unsteadily. He arrived in front of Lin Hao and introduced himself,"Taoist priest, this old man is the village chief here. Let me tell you.”
" It's like this. Some time ago, a dazzling light fell from the sky and smashed into the wild bamboo forest southeast of the village. Therefore, we organized a few able-bodied men to go deep into the bamboo forest to investigate.”
"So the thing with the flames was the rumored plane, but the plane had already become a wreckage, so we didn't take it seriously…But who would have thought that a few days later, a monster would appear in the wild bamboo forest.”
"That monster often feeds on animals and livestock. It even drinks our blood until it's dried up. When the sun shines on it, the corpse will automatically ignite.”
Hmm?
A crashed plane?
A monster?
A blood-sucking monster?
When Lin Hao heard this, he could not help but grasp a few keywords, which made him extremely interested in this matter.
At this moment, the familiar system voice sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering a random mission. Please accept it.”
I'll update more today to make up for it.
I'm begging the readers for their support.
