When I was a Taoist

Chapter 515 Please ask clearly
After walking for most of the day, and spending the whole night avoiding Andre, we are a little tired now and plan to take a rest in this small town.But when we got close to the town, we found that the town was surrounded by a two-three-meter-high iron fence, and the iron fence seemed to be electrified.There is only one exit from the iron fence, which has been locked with iron locks from the inside.Apart from digging a hole, I am afraid there is no other way to get in.This place is completely like a closed prison.

"Strange, why is this place so tightly sealed off? Is this also your custom?" I asked curiously.

"The villagers here are all warm and hospitable, and they will never be so defensive. And look, what is hanging there?"

Pace pointed to the distance, and I looked in his direction, and found that there were several corpses hanging on a big tree not far from the town, which seemed to have rotted and turned into mummified corpses.

"The residents of this small town seem to kill people, why don't we go around it." Anna shrank behind me and said cautiously.

I also frowned. I didn't expect the residents of the small town to hang human corpses on the trees. In addition, they blocked the whole town with iron fences. Could it be to warn passers-by not to approach?It all seemed so out of the ordinary.

"Pace, you are here to protect Anna, I'll take a look at those corpses."

I'm going to take a look at the bodies and try to identify them.Although Anna's face was full of horror, she still shook her head bravely and said, "Sir, I said that no matter where you go, I will follow you, and I will go too."

I looked at Pace helplessly, and brought them under the tree together.After turning around the tree trunk a few times, I found that the corpses were dressed in the makeup of the local residents, and did not look like foreign robbers or monsters.Just when I was puzzled, Pace suddenly flicked his fingers, and a ball of fire flew from his fingertips to the top of his head, burning the ropes hanging these corpses.I hurriedly pulled Anna back, and was almost hit by these corpses.

"Pace, what are you doing? Doing so may cause revenge from the residents of the town." I looked at him with some complaints, after all, I didn't want to conflict with these ordinary people.

Pace didn't explain, just pointed at the corpses and said slowly: "Look at their backs, there are some things that normal humans shouldn't have."

Hearing this, I endured the stench and squatted down to examine these corpses, and sure enough, I found a pair of skeletons nearly half a meter long growing on their backs.And their hands are not normal human finger bones, but sharp and slender bones similar to claws!
"Hiss...these corpses are not human, they seem to be bird people?" I wasn't sure for a moment. There were indeed rumors about flying monsters in the West. It was said that they had bird wings but had human bodies.If the corpses in front of him were indeed these monsters, it would be understandable.

"Little guy, you still haven't observed carefully enough."

However, Pace shook his head and said: "These wings should be connected forcibly, because the connection between the bones is too weak, which is obviously man-made. If these are really birdmen, why did the residents of the town install them?" Isn't it useless to resist with iron fences?"

Pace's analysis was clear and logical, and it did tell me something I hadn't discovered at all.I scratched my head with some shame, then recalled the three monsters I met on the train, and my heart sank: "I guess these monsters should be the same as the ones I encountered on the train before, and they all belong to the heaven of Huaxia Kingdom." The product of Chance's research. I'm just curious, how did Chance transport so many monsters here?"

"Heavenly chance? Hehe, I've heard the name before."

Pace smiled coldly and said, "It's not just Andre's family. As far as I know, many families in the West are inextricably linked to Tianji. Boys, don't underestimate this organization. I always feel that they There is no small conspiracy, otherwise we would not have won so many allies."

"I know, but there is nothing we can do. After all, the relationship between Tianji and Daohui is checked and balanced by the No. [-] Archives Bureau. If we rashly try to destroy Tianji, it will definitely cause resentment and even restrictions from the Archives Bureau." I shrugged helplessly. This situation is tantamount to slow suicide.When Tianji finds all his helpers secretly, I am afraid that Daohui will no longer be their opponent, and maybe even the No. [-] Archives Bureau will be helpless.

"boom!"

Suddenly a gunshot frightened me back two steps, only to see a deep indentation appeared on the tree trunk in front of us, and wisps of green smoke were blowing out.I thought someone was sneak attacking us, so I quickly held Qingfeng in my hand and looked around for the enemy.

"Don't be impulsive, it's the residents of the town! Put your weapons away, don't let them think that we are with these monsters."

Pace quickly asked me to put away my weapon, and when I turned around, I found a figure standing on the towers on both sides of the town, holding a long gun in their hands. The gunshot just now must have come from their hands.

I quickly raised my hands and shook them towards them, indicating that I had no malice at all.After seeing that the two residents did not continue to shoot, I took a deep breath and walked towards them step by step, and said loudly: "I am a Taoist priest from the East, and I have no ill intentions towards you. I just pass by here and hope to take a rest." .”

To be honest, I was still a little apprehensive.If these guys shot directly in a frenzy, with my current ability, no matter how fast I am, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the bombardment of bullets.

"Stop! Don't come any closer to us, or we'll shoot right away!"

The person on the left immediately pointed the gun at me, I could only stop helplessly, and said: "The three of us really don't have any malicious intentions, and we have nothing to do with those monsters, just passing by. If you don't believe me, Come down and check if we're human."

"Hmph, every monster pretends to be a human being to deceive us, but in the end it slaughtered so many of our brothers and relatives. Regardless of whether you are human or not, I advise you to go away immediately, or we will shoot immediately!"

After finishing speaking, the two of them loaded the guns in their hands. If we took a step closer, I'm afraid they would really shoot right away.

If it were any other situation, I would definitely turn around and leave in order not to cause trouble.But now that it has been related to Tianji, in order to prove my guess, I have to ask the residents of the town to clarify.
