Although the fire is still burning, its rays of light are a lot darker, and there is not enough light in the room, so the woman lights an old light and dust lamp, a kind of magic The lamp, a sealed glass container contains a luminous fluorescent powder.

“so that’s how it is, the crops that disappeared bizarrely overnight? No wonder the surrounding farmland is bare.” Demon King touched his chin, then continued to ask: “Then you find Are you a prisoner?”

Luoshan showed a distressed expression, and shook the head said: “No, we tried various methods, and even sent people to watch the night without finding any strange animals or prisoners. “

“The crop will never run away on your own legs in front of one’s eyes.” Demon King asked.

Luoshan laughed to himself, and shook the head said: “We can’t keep staring. There are always times when we are away, when we are eating, and maybe when we go to the bathroom, come back and take a look, Shua! “

He spread his hands and said with a helpless expression: “Turning around, the crops are gone, it’s like…”

“It’s like being eaten by the land.”

Demon King lightly said.

“Yes! That’s it, I was just trying to say that.” Luoshan said excitedly.

“But the earth is innocent. It has nurtured everything, so it won’t be rare for us.” The woman said suddenly, and Demon King felt that she was right.

“This is the strangest thing, so we suspect it may be man-made, but this phenomenon has appeared in all the farmland in the village.” Luoshan calmed down, and he clamped the block with iron tongs. The burning charcoal lit the pipe in his hand.

“So poor Mira was driven out of the village.” The woman said at a moderate pace, who was knitting a sweater with a ball of thread.

“Mila?”

Luoshan was silent for a while, and after a puff of smoke, he said, “That’s a shepherd girl, not from this village. You should watch There is a prairie near the village, where she often herd sheep. About four years ago, she passed by our village while herding sheep.”

“She is a good girl, in the most difficult time in our village, I secretly sent four or five sheep to let us through the hardest days.” The woman shook the head and said: “At the time she was fined a lot for it, but now people forget her kindness, because she lost her. I took something and treated them as a thief, Anolam~”

She put her hand on her forehead, as if she was repenting.

“That elder sister is so pitiful.”

Rena held the kitten and said weakly.

Demon King also agrees that the shepherdess’ status is very low, and she is a profession that is despised by others. She can only earn a little insignificant wages through hard work. Losing a sheep is a major event and being scolded by employers is It’s not a strange thing to be beaten with a whip by the employer if you make a mistake.

Not to mention the serious matter of losing four or five sheep at a time.

Demon King vaguely remembered that a long time ago, when he was traveling with the Master, he also met a little boy shepherding sheep. He was sitting on the roadside and crying because he lost a sheep. I didn’t dare to go back for several days. I would rather keep looking hungry than go back. In the end I was exhausted and could only cry alone.

“The prisoner is not her, and her sheep.”

Demon King’s dark eyes stared at Luoshan, and he lowered his head.

“Yes, but there are still people who don’t believe her and think she used magic.”

“Excessive!” Rena said indignantly.

“Yes, Heavenly God will definitely not forgive us for what we did, Anolam.” The woman gave Rena a helpless wry smile.

“Then why not apologize to her.” Rena felt a little unreasonable.

The two fell silent, and the room suddenly became very quiet.

“Until the culprit is not found, there is no way to convince the other villagers.” Demon King said.

After all, not everyone is as reasonable as these two couples.

“You can say the same, then would you like to…”

“Speaking ahead, I will not work in vain. As farmers, you should know that you want To gain, you must pay.” Demon King interrupted him.

After hearing this, the two looked at each other, and Rena was holding the kitten, feeling a little uneasy.

“Then how much do you want?” Luoshan asked.

“Look at the culprit first. Don’t worry, I won’t open my mouth. The price will definitely be under the conditions you can pay.”

After listening , The two couples sighed in relief, looking at their faces, we can see that they are still a little worried.

At night, the two of Demon King slept in an empty house with only one wooden bed covered with dry straw. Although the conditions were simple, it was more comfortable than sleeping outside.

“Master.”

Rena was lying on the bed, looking at the starry sky outside the window.

“Huh?” Demon King sat in a chair, reading a book in the dark environment.

“Are we really going to collect the money, we are staying now.”

She asked.

“No horse can run a ten thousand li road without eating or drinking, and if you want to harvest, you have to pay, go to bed early, and get up early tomorrow to practice.”

“Yes~”

……

Early in the morning, the roosters in the village started their concert. People who can sleep in under these conditions are not ordinary people.

Huh! !

A dull sky-splitting sound came from outside the house. Rena brandished a wooden knife and was practicing the Blade Technique taught by Demon King.

Although the action is blunt and rough, it can still be completed in the process, but at this stage it is only for her to move her hands and feet that’s all.

After practicing until the sun is fully up, the two of them finished their breakfast and followed Luoshan to the field.

Demon King watched the surroundings and found nothing suspicious at first glance.

“There are no suspicious tracks. It should not be done by herbivores.” Demon King said to himself.

“Well, that’s why we suspect it was man-made.” Luo Shan said.

At this time, other villagers also came to watch the excitement. They heard that an expert had come to the village to help them see the “strange disease” in this place.

“When does it usually happen, at night?” Demon King knelt down and asked.

“Not necessarily, most nights, but there are also mornings or afternoons. In short, they disappear when people are away.” Luoshan said.

“The people in this country must have done it. They don’t welcome us to live here.”

“It must be because they did not receive my tax, so they want to drive us away. Go.”

Some villagers said.

Demon King ignored them, he didn’t want to be nosy.

“I need to investigate alone, you will affect my work.” He stood up and said.

Then he walked to another field, Rena followed behind him, and little kitty was the same.

The other villagers suddenly spoke, looking at his back with a little displeasedness.

“I hope he is as good as his attitude, otherwise I will drive him out of the village like a liar.”

An old man with a beard cursed in a low voice.

Luoshan smiled awkwardly and couldn’t say anything.

Demon King wanders in Heaven and Earth, looking for clues everywhere.

He can feel the breath of monsters here, but it is very weak, it may be brought by the wind, and it is still uncertain. There are no clues other than human footprints on the ground. It’s so strange. No wonder the villagers are suspicious.

Then he squatted down to investigate the location of the crops. Many crime scenes only left a small hole, which is where the plants originally grew. If they were pulled out, the ground would definitely be destroyed. , And then left some traces.

But there is no such thing, there are only small mouths, as if the plant melted by itself.

Wait! melt?

Demon King suddenly thought of something. He suddenly noticed that this piece of land had been artificially turned over and it was very soft.

Could it be it?
