Refining Demon Tutuo

Chapter 154, The Disappearance Case of Tianjia Village
In the dilapidated courtyard, He Yuan said to Hua Yan: "I may go to Tianjia Village recently. You have two senior brothers, and I am not at ease when they go on business. By the way, I went out a while ago. Are you beggars all right?"

Du Xiaobao said: "Hey, don't mention it, the matter with the Qilian Chamber of Commerce has not been resolved, and there is a fight with people from the Vegetable Demon Sect."

He Yuan was confused: "Why?"

"At the beginning, our two brothers who were at the helm and some people who claimed to be Mingjiao started some verbal lawsuits. Unexpectedly, when we started to fight, the trouble became bigger and bigger."

He Yuan didn't have the energy to take multiple measures at the moment, he told Hua Yan: "These fights in the rivers and lakes, if you have not accomplished martial arts, try not to get involved. Once some things are involved, it will be very difficult to get out.

Hua Yan nodded and agreed: "Master, don't worry, apprentice will remember."

Du Xiaobao asked from the side: "Master He, do you want to tell me, Master, that our beggar gang will send some brothers to go with you?"

He Yuan said: "Don't do it. This time the matter is not that simple. The guards who went before have no news. You haven't practiced a few kung fu, so you must not get involved. Recently, there are undercurrents in the city. You are hiding in It might be safer outside the city.

It's almost time.I have to go back quickly.you---"

Just as He Yuan was about to leave, he suddenly thought about it and dragged them to the Niu's blacksmith shop.

Master Niu made a slender iron sword, and modified the boxwood Zen stick by the way, integrating the slender iron sword with the boxwood Zen stick.The hilt is the end of the staff, and the blade is hidden in the staff.In this way, it looks like an ordinary Zen stick with a sharp sword hidden in it.

Judge Lei sent someone to stop Lu Youcheng and others who were about to set off at the Yamen of the Recording Department.With an ugly face, he announced that this time he would lead several leading players to investigate the case.

Earlier, Yuan Lushi was summoned by Liu Shaopei to take over the task of supervising the Tianjiacun case.

Yuan Lushi was obedient to his boss, but when he got to his own room, he dared to let out a breath of sulk.

The gods fight, and the imp suffers.What a disaster.There is no way, the errands assigned by the boss can only be suppressed.

So, Judge Lei swallowed the bitter pill and took people to investigate the case himself.The previous manpower remained the same, and he brought a few more of his cronies.

Asking those who were about to leave to wait a little longer, Judge Lei hurriedly wrote a letter and sent someone to send it out quickly.He is not without roots.

Lei Yi, Judge Lei, was born in the Funiu sect.He studied art at a young age, and transformed the soft whip kung fu passed down by his teacher into the iron chain and iron whip of the public school, and gradually rose to the top with his kung fu.Today, he can be regarded as the leading figure in the Buniu faction.

In the courtyard of Yousi, Judge Lei carried the iron whip on his back, and with a few followers, together with Lu Youcheng and Ji Guanglu, ordered twenty street patrolmen, and hurried out of the Recorder's Office.A group of people rode fast horses and rushed to Tianjia Village.

Along the way, Judge Lei was seen to be in a bad mood, and almost no one spoke.

Not far from Fucheng, you have already reached the border with Nankuo County.After walking south for another twenty miles, someone familiar with the route said that Tianjia Village was just ahead.

At the foot of the winding and undulating mountains, you can see dots of cottages.

After getting off the official road, there is a small river blocking the way.Walking across a wooden bridge, we soon arrived at Tianjia Village.

At this time, the smoke from the cooking in the village curled up, which was originally a peaceful pastoral picture scroll.It's a pity that the cooking smoke was blown away by the wind, but it looked a little gloomy.

A team of people came, and someone had already returned to the village to report.

Soon, someone greeted them.

The leader was Shi Geng, the leader of the fast team in Nankuo County, and the village elders and Tian Yuanwai (the largest landlord in Tianjia Village) came to welcome them.

Shi Bantou and Ji Guanglu knew each other.They first made an introduction for everyone, and the two parties read the official document.

Tian Yuanwai and the village elder led the crowd into the village.

"Shi Bantou, you came early, have you seen anything?"

As the group walked, Judge Lei asked directly who was the team leader who came first.

The head of Shiban glanced at Lei Yi, and said cautiously: "Master Lei, the official came not long ago, and nothing has been found, and the people who came before have not returned. Let's go and see the specific situation."

Judge Lei immediately asked the village elder to lead the crowd to the place where the people and animals disappeared.

Walking through the farmland and mulberry forest, I came to a grain drying field.Walking on the road, Yuan Wai gave an overview of the matter.

Tianjia Village is backed by continuous mountains, and there is a river passing by in front of the village, so it is a good place.Relying on the fertile land, Tianjia Village has a good harvest every year, and it is not a problem to feed the villagers.So, there are hundreds of people in the village.

Most of the villagers have the surname of Tian, ​​and few have foreign surnames.Therefore, during the busy farming season, the villagers always help each other.In order to facilitate everyone to do farm work, there is a large grain drying field in the village.

When the harvest season is busy, some grains will be gathered around the grain drying grounds before they can be stored in time.In order to prevent loss, the village will send people to take turns to guard.

In previous years, some grains, chickens and ducks were occasionally lost.It's basically irrelevant, just track it down, and forget it if you can't find it.

But this time, it was really strange.Since the cattle were lost a month ago, until half a month ago, the guards of the sun-drying fields have been missing continuously. Some villagers kept dogs at home, and the dogs brought by the guards disappeared. The most important thing is , the dogs in the village did not bark.

The time of disappearance is very regular, not every day.Every third day, the watchman will disappear that night, and nothing will happen in the other two days.

The people who watch the night are strong laborers, and they are the pillars of the family.Without one person, the life of a family may be in trouble.With the loss of more than a dozen strong men in a row, the people in the village couldn't sit still for a long time.The case was reported to Nankuo County.

Nankuo County sent the head of the Ma Kuai squad to lead Kuaishou Minzhuang to check.The result of the inspection was that people and animals were taken away by wild animals.So they mobilized hunters from the surrounding countryside to drive wild animals up the mountain.

After a toss, it was clean for a few days.

Three days later, another person disappeared.Until yesterday, Nankuo County and Fucheng sent messengers over.

The villagers originally thought that it would be safe now.But it never occurred to me that this morning, when everyone got up, they realized that the guards who came yesterday were gone.

Lu Youcheng accidentally discovered that when the village elder said that every three days, someone would disappear.The expression on Judge Lei's face seemed to relax a bit, and he couldn't see anything after that.

Walk around this drying field.The venue has been destroyed in a disfigured state, nothing can be seen at all, there are no traces of fighting, let alone blood.It is hard to imagine what caused the disappearance of humans and animals.

"Several adults have worked hard all the way, and they have prepared some meals. Let's go to eat first, and let's chat while eating." Tian Yuanwai warmly entertained Judge Lei and his party.

The location of the banquet is at the field member's house.This is the best house in the village. The courtyard with blue bricks and black tiles is very grand against the backdrop of the surrounding houses.
