Chapter 580 Find More People

It seems that there are indeed strange beasts in this village, and the village chief and villagers were obviously a little scared when they came here. Fortunately, Zhao Mingyin and others were here, otherwise they would not dare to come here.

When Zhao Mingyin came here, he walked around and didn't know what he was looking at. Maybe he was looking at the footprints on the ground or the traces of a fight. Zhao Liumei also followed him and looked at the surrounding situation. Yan Ting and Sui Qing did not do much on the side.

"We just have to wait. Anyway, Lao Zhao is investigating from the front. He will make a decision soon."

Yan Ting said as if she was used to it, and Sui Qing seemed to be the same way. Sui Qing remained silent. Zhang Zhiwen felt that Sui Qing was like a mute, but since Yan Ting said this, Zhang Zhiwen followed suit. .

After about a stick of incense, Zhao Mingyin seemed to have some answers. Then he raised his head and looked at the villagers who had witnessed what happened here, and asked: "How far away were you from here at the time?"

"I was standing at that place." The villager pointed to a hut not far away, and then said, "I, I was behind the hut because I planned to come out to get something, and then I heard something going on inside. , at that time, I, I thought it was a monster from the sea coming up..."

The villager who witnessed what happened here told what happened that night again. Anyway, he was hiding far behind the hut, and he heard some noises. He didn't even dare to look at what happened here.

After listening to what he said, Zhao Mingyin nodded, then looked at the village chief and said, "Village Chief, call all the villagers together now. I want to check them one by one."

"Dad, why bother? Didn't he see it? Since he saw it and he is still safe, then he must be the most suspicious. Let's just capture him!"

However, Zhao Liumei directly wanted to capture the villager who witnessed the incident, which frightened the villager. The village chief also said quickly: "No, no, Achang cannot be a strange beast. It has nothing to do with him. He just happened to see it." ”

"Oh, if you speak for him, then you must be related to the strange beast, so I'll take you down too!"

Zhao Liumei actually said that the village chief was related to the strange beast, which scared the village chief. The village chief and the villager named Achang could only look at Zhao Mingyin for help.

Zhao Mingyin grinned and said: "Don't panic, she is just joking with you. You should go and gather the villagers, and we will investigate one by one in a while."

Hearing Zhao Mingyin's words, the village chief and Achang breathed a sigh of relief. They quickly nodded and bowed to gather the villagers, but Zhao Liumei burst out laughing: "It scares them, dad. In fact, these villagers can kill them casually." That’s all, I’d rather kill him by mistake than let him go.”

"You can't say that. We are all working for the Chen family. The Chen family government does not allow us to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Besides, killing them will not help."

Zhao Mingyin replied calmly. Obviously, he still had some taboos about killing innocent people indiscriminately, but he seemed not to be surprised by this kind of thing, and he didn't seem to care that much.

Sure enough, Zhao Liumei disapproved and said: "What's the point? There are so many untouchables under the government office. There are millions of untouchables. Killing just a few hundred is nothing!"

Zhao Mingyin didn't seem to want to dwell on this issue anymore. He looked at Zhang Zhiwen and others, and then said, "Let's go there too."

After saying this, he took the lead and flew towards the center of the village with his flying sword, and Zhang Zhiwen and others naturally followed.

However, Zhang Zhiwen still felt a little emotional in his heart. Obviously, these indigenous villagers are quite miserable. The disciples of Chen's government office can kill them at will, and Chen's government office does not care. It does not mean that the villagers give Chen's The government office reported that there were strange beasts here, and the Chen family government office sent people to eliminate them and appease the villagers. That was definitely not the case. The Chen family government office just asked the disciples from the outer hall to come and kill the strange beasts and seize the Taoist soul. Just a stone.

Chen's government office doesn't care whether the villagers die or not, and these villagers are not even as good as a handyman. They almost have to fend for themselves. Unless they advance to Jindan cultivation level and then become a handyman of Chen's government office, then they may have a chance. .

No wonder Zhao Liumei wants to kill casually, but Zhao Mingyin is not very interested in killing, and Yan Ting and Sui Qing don't seem to be interested in killing either. That is to say, people like Zhao Liumei like to kill villagers to get pleasure.

But this was just a small episode. Zhao Mingyin quickly led everyone to the center of the village. The village chief also summoned the villagers. Zhang Zhiwen felt that Zhao Mingyin’s move was a safe approach. Anyway, the villagers were all registered and wanted to escape. It is impossible to escape. If someone is missing, report him missing. If he is not missing and does not appear here now, it must be a strange beast. Another one, if the strange beast is among the villagers, Zhao Mingyin can also borrow it. Take this opportunity to dig it out.

It has to be said that Zhao Mingyin is still very experienced and found a solution immediately. Moreover, he went to the scene to see the situation before making sure. Obviously, he was sure that there were strange beasts at the scene, but Zhang Zhiwen I don’t know how the other party determined it, but Zhao Ming Yin didn’t say anything. Obviously, he didn’t plan to tell Zhang Zhiwen and others about this kind of thing. This is the difference between a veteran and a novice. But it’s a pity that Zhang Zhiwen doesn’t need any experience at all. As long as he arrives at the scene, he can immediately I felt the presence of strange beasts.

However, Zhao Mingyin didn't know about this matter, but Zhang Zhiwen knew the general situation of Zhao Mingyin. The two sides were in a situation of one light and one dark. Of course, Zhang Zhiwen also pretended not to understand anything. Anyway, just listen to Yan Ting's words, and everything would be fine. Lao Zhao was holding on in front.

Soon, Zhao Mingyin asked the village chief to take out the household registration book and check it one by one. The village chief also reported to Zhao Mingyin truthfully, saying that nine people were missing in the village, and now everyone else is here, which means something strange The beast is probably no longer among these people.

Where did that weird beast come from? Doesn't it seem to be an evolutionary mutation of the villagers?

In this regard, Zhao Mingyin also frowned slightly, because if this was the case, he would then start to investigate one by one based on experience. There may not be 100% certainty in this, but after Zhang Zhiwen came here, He immediately felt the breath of strange beasts, and he felt the breath of no less than five strange beasts at once!

This was quite a surprise to Zhang Zhiwen. He thought there was only one strange beast, but he never expected that there were five. These five strange beasts were all mixed among the villagers. Zhang Zhiwen could clearly feel that these five strange beasts Apparently feeling Zhang Zhiwen's presence, they suddenly raised their heads and looked at Zhang Zhiwen!

However, Zhang Zhiwen didn't react at all. He still had no expression, as if he didn't know what was going on. Anyway, Zhang Zhiwen wouldn't show anything. He just remained calm and looked as if he didn't know these five weird things at all. Like a beast.

These five strange beasts were obviously a little confused. They all looked at each other secretly and saw some doubtful looks in each other's eyes. Moreover, they were obviously transmitting something in private. But after a while, these five The strange beast didn't react much. It seemed that they felt that Zhang Zhiwen was just a strange existence, but they didn't know that Zhang Zhiwen was a reincarnated Taoist monk.

Zhang Zhiwen has actually been secretly observing their changes. He encountered a strange beast in the mine before. The other party felt the difference in him and seemed to feel his reincarnated soul, but that was just a feeling, not that They knew that Zhang Zhiwen was the reincarnated Taoist soul, and Zhang Zhiwen wanted to take the opportunity to confirm this matter, because this matter was very important!

If the strange beast could know that he was the reincarnated soul, it would still be a bit troublesome. Although the strange beast did not dare to speak out, just like the strange beast encountered in the mine, the other party would not speak out, and even Fang Silin became Fang Silin wouldn't say anything about the strange beasts, but it didn't seem to be the case now. These strange beasts didn't know that the feeling Zhang Zhiwen brought to them was the aura of the reincarnated Taoist soul.

This can now be basically confirmed, because they are obviously a little confused. If they know that Zhang Zhiwen is a reincarnated Taoist monk, then they should be shocked, not confused. Of course, this is Zhang Zhiwen's judgment, and This judgment should generally be error-free.

Another one, the strange beast discovered Zhang Zhiwen's aura, but the strange beast did not know that Zhang Zhiwen could also feel them. This seems to be confirmed, otherwise they would not have a puzzled expression, but a vigilant, even They had nervous and hostile expressions, but they didn't. They actually pretended that nothing happened. Zhang Zhiwen didn't look at them, pretending not to pay attention to them, and they also pretended not to know about it.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwen felt a lot more relieved. It seemed that the strange beasts didn't know everything, but some of them felt the aura of Zhang Zhiwen's reincarnated soul. This thing made them feel a little strange. Maybe they just regard Zhang Zhiwen as a strange monk, that's all.

Another thing, now that strange beasts are hidden among the villagers, they are naturally the cultivation base of foundation-building monks. In fact, they are mutated monks, and they are essentially foundation-building cultivation base. How can this kind of cultivation level be able to deal with Zhang Zhiwen? How much of a threat is it?

Zhang Zhiwen felt that these strange beasts posed little threat to him. In that case, there was no need for Zhang Zhiwen to think too much. Didn't Zhao Mingyin want to investigate anyway? Then let Zhao Mingyin investigate, and he would just see what Zhao Mingyin would do next.

He was too lazy to mind his own business. What good would killing these strange beasts do to him anyway? Besides, if he pointed out that these villagers were strange beasts, it would not only be of no benefit to him, but would be an extremely stupid act. Wouldn't this be equivalent to him automatically exposing some secrets?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen would not do such a thankless thing. Zhang Zhiwen even found that these strange beasts were a bit strange. They secretly had some unusual connections with the village chief and the villager named Achang. They From time to time, they secretly convey some looks to each other. If Zhang Zhiwen hadn't known that they were strange beasts, it would have been difficult to discover this.

When Zhang Zhiwen discovered this, he naturally felt that there must be some ulterior secret here, and the village chief and Achang must know who the strange beast is, so why should they protect the strange beast? So if they were protecting the strange beasts, why would they report it to the officials? He also asked Chen's government office to send people to exterminate the strange beasts. There is a contradiction in this matter!

And since it is such a contradiction, the only way to explain it is that this matter was a trap set by the village chief!

But Zhang Zhiwen felt that the village chief didn't seem to have the guts to do such a thing, right? Could it be that there was a strange beast behind the village chief instructing them to do this? And why did they do this?

This was what Zhang Zhiwen didn't understand, but at this time Zhao Mingyin had asked the village chief to ask the villagers to come one by one to be questioned, and Zhao Mingyin asked the village chief to set up tables and chairs, get tea and snacks, and Zhao Mingyin and Zhao Liumei sat down carelessly, drinking tea and eating snacks while questioning these villagers.

Yan Ting and Sui Qing walked over and stood beside Zhao Mingyin, and Zhang Zhiwen must have walked over and followed Yan Ting. Anyway, Zhao Mingyin and Zhao Liumei looked like bosses, and they began to question these villagers about some things.

Zhang Zhiwen was a little strange. He wondered if Zhao Mingyin could find out the strange beast by questioning the villagers? It seemed that the strange beast was too easy to find out, right? Or did Zhao Mingyin have any special means to ask it out?

With such a little curiosity, and the strange relationship between these strange beasts and the village chief, Zhang Zhiwen simply stood aside and watched the show. Anyway, even if these five strange beasts attacked, they would probably not be Zhao Mingyin's opponent. You know, Zhao Mingyin is a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, and this cultivation is enough to kill five strange beasts with foundation building cultivation.

So, the interrogation began.

"What's your surname, what's your ancestor's name, do you have children..."

The questions Zhao Mingyin asked were very simple. They all asked about the situation of the villagers' heads at home, and the villagers answered truthfully. The village chief standing aside followed and confirmed the authenticity of this information for Zhao Mingyin. Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiwen was a little speechless. This village chief was obviously a traitor, and Zhao Mingyin actually used the village chief to determine the situation of the villagers. Isn't that a completely unworkable thing?

Could it be that Zhao Mingyin still has a trick up his sleeve? Otherwise, this interrogation would definitely not work!

But after Zhao Mingyin questioned three villagers, he pointed at the villager in front of him and said, "Come on, take him down, he is the strange beast!"

At this moment, everyone was stunned, because this villager could not be a strange beast, but this villager was strong and looked quite young, and Zhao Liumei did not say anything, directly used the Taoist magic, and instantly blasted the villager away.

This villager was only at the foundation-building stage, how could he withstand such a blow, he fainted on the spot, but Zhang Zhiwen was very careful, he found that Zhao Liumei just knocked him out, and did not mean to take his life.

"Don't worry, keep him alive, maybe you can catch a few more!"

Zhao Mingyin said calmly, the village chief and the villagers were dumbfounded, the villagers did not know that the guy who was knocked out was actually a strange beast, and the village chief knew that the whole person was not a strange beast, but the village chief did not seem to dare to say anything, but his face was very bad, and the eyes he looked at Zhao Mingyin secretly were full of resentment.
