The woman told the two of them the beginning of the whole incident in detail. The general content was that a few days ago, a magic wolf suddenly attacked the people in their village. The people in the village immediately rang the big bell and waited for Truman's people to come. Rescue, but before Truman's people arrived, the demon wolf was repelled, but many villagers were seriously injured.
So Truman's people stayed in the village for three days. The demon wolf attacked the village again and was killed by three Truman disciples on the spot.
From what I heard, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with the whole thing, so Luo Yixi decided to go to the scene to check it out first. At this time, a group of people had gathered near the boy's home, headed by their village chief.
"Two respected magicians, do you have any business here? I am the village chief of this village. You can tell me anything you want." The village chief spoke very politely, because the other party was not only strange but , and didn’t do anything bad.
"My father and my daughter were passing by here. I heard that the village had been attacked by demonic wolves recently, so we came over to take a look out of curiosity. Logically speaking, there should be no demonic beasts here."
After saying this, everyone started talking.
The village chief sighed and said: "We have lived here for many generations, and it has always been quite stable. But since three years ago, monsters have been attacking the villages and towns from time to time. But fortunately, there are disciples of Truman here, Only then can everyone live here so peacefully.”
"Oh, did anything special happen three years ago?"
The village chief asked some people around him, and they all shook their heads and said nothing special happened.
"I don't think so"
"Hey, why are everyone standing at my door, village chief?"
"Xiao Yang, did you pick something delicious just now?"
The boy said unhappily: "No, I was chased by a wolf."
"Wolf!" Everyone was shocked. Hasn't it been killed? There could be more than one.
"Don't worry, I've already driven you away."
"Go and inform Truman's people quickly"
"No need, we are Truman's special operations team, specializing in investigating the whereabouts of World of Warcraft. But our status is special, even the Truman children may not know our existence, and I hope you can keep it a secret."
As soon as they heard the word "Truman", everyone put aside all doubts and showed some excitement.
"You should each be busy with your own affairs. It's not convenient to investigate with so many people together."
"Everyone, please go back. I'll just accompany them. Remember, you can't tell anyone what happened today." The village chief raised his voice and said. Everyone was obedient and quickly returned to their homes or places of work.
"Little brother, come with me, I need help."
"Mom, you heard me, I can also help."
"Go ahead", the woman smiled softly.
"Great"
The four of them quickly arrived at the location where the demonic wolf attacked people for the first time. It was a tree next to one of the houses in the village, where a villager was peeing. At this time, there was still a scratch from the demon wolf on the tree, and some scattered brown hairs were found nearby. After a little search, it seemed that nothing particularly noteworthy was found.
So the four of them went to the second crime scene. The scene this time was on a grassland not far from the village. Traces of magic destruction could be clearly seen all around, indicating that the battle was very fierce.
Luo Yixi squatted down and found a pool of blood in the grass. Because the battle took place around dawn, the blood had not dried.
"Rong, have you noticed anything?"
Du Xuerong shook his head: "Apart from the smell of burning and blood, there is no other special smell found here."
"Did I guess wrong? Little brother, did you find your soil in the village?"
"No, I found it under the big tree in front of me," the boy said, pointing to a place.
"Okay, take us there and have a look. Village chief, if you have difficulty moving, you don't need to follow us."
"Okay okay"
After the village chief walked back, the boy led the way.
Du Xuerong couldn't help but ask: "Do you suspect that the scent attracted the monster?"
"There are many examples of scent attracting magic beasts, but magic wolves do not. For magic wolves, blood is the most attractive, but this requires a lot of blood. However, there is a special situation, as long as there is a A little blood is enough to attract them."
"You are saying that the scent is to cover up the smell of blood, but if you do this, won't it actually attract the demon wolf?"
"I'll explain it to you when I find the evidence."
With many questions, Du Xuerong had no choice but to follow the two of them closely.
"It's this tree. Then walk one, two, three, four, five steps this way, and you'll be right here. Hey! Why is there a pit?"
Du Xuerong and Luo Yixi beside them naturally saw it.
"Smell the surrounding soil to see if it has the aroma you mentioned." After saying that, Luo Yixi came to the side of the pit and observed it carefully.
The boy lay on the ground searching and searching: "I smell it."
"I smelled it too, and I also smelled a bit of blood."
"Come over to the pit and smell it."
“The taste is stronger”
"That's right, let's go back"
So the group of people walked back. Luo Yixi explained on the way: "The pit was dug by the demon wolf. The purpose was to dig out the things buried underneath. I guess it was probably wolf meat or wolf hair mixed with blood. In addition, Although the fragrance is very light, it can cover up the smell inside very well.”
"Because the aroma is not strong, according to common sense, no one can detect it at all, except for my little brother and you. Moreover, these preparations are obviously made for humans, because the magic wolves are different. For the smell of the same race, even if the smell is no longer It’s so weak that even a demon wolf can recognize it.”
"You mean someone deliberately framed people in the village," Du Xuerong was stunned for a moment and exclaimed.
“It’s totally possible”
"Brother and sister, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand anything?"
"Little brother, I want to hold a competition later. You and your sister will compete to see who can find the fragrant soil in the village first. The one who finds it first will be richly rewarded."
"Humph, I won't admit defeat, I will definitely win."
Looking at the boy who was full of fighting spirit, Du Xuerong smiled and said, "That's not necessarily the case."
The competition between the two lasted for a long time. After a full hour passed, the winner was decided. In the end, Du Xuerong, the "old ginger", was the hotter.
Although the boy lost, Du Xuerong gave the reward, a fruit, to the boy, and the boy happily ran away to play elsewhere.
Near a house on the east side, the two squatted down and watched for a long time.
"You said there would be something inside, right?"
"You go away a little bit"
"Um"
Luo Yixi squatted down, then touched the ground with his hand, and started to use magic energy to explore. After a while, the corners of his mouth raised: "There is indeed something down there, and it is buried very deep." Then he stood up and suddenly used force With one pull, the entire piece of soil was lifted up: "It's underneath, you can take it out."
Du Xuerong stepped forward and took a look, and indeed saw something black underneath. Du Xuerong immediately released magical energy to take out the thing and put it on the ground. At this time, Luo Yixi put the soil back into the pit.
"This is?"
Luo Yixi took out a ball of brown hair: "One leg, and judging from the size, it is still a monster that has not yet reached adulthood. Look at the hair, does it look similar to this one?"
"This is the child of the wolf that was vanquished."
"Yes, it seems that the guess is correct. Someone did this deliberately, and it is probably the three Truman disciples we met in the morning."
"But why, to prove that they are the sect that protects everyone?"
"I'm afraid this is one of the reasons, the other is money."
"But didn't Auntie say that although they collected some money, didn't all the money go to the families of the injured villagers?"
"Humph, how can you guarantee that they will hand over all the money every time they collect money? Moreover, if you sincerely help the villagers, it is impossible to collect money. Once it is determined that you must pay a processing fee to help, everything becomes It’s different”
"How could they do this? If they do this, sooner or later the villagers will face life-threatening danger."
"What if they are members of the Blood Night Sect?"
Du Xuerong was stunned for a moment and was speechless for a moment. Yes, what is the difference between their approach and the Blood Night Sect. Du Xuerong clenched her fists, but she was too weak to do anything. She couldn't even protect herself, so how could she protect others.
"However, we still lack direct evidence to prove that it was them who did it, and that your relatives are in the hands of the Blood Night Sect, and there are people from the Blood Night Sect in Trumen. If Trumen is attacked, they will be alerted. "
"Is there no other way? I'm worried that if they can't find me for a long time, they will attack Uncle Yu."
This is indeed a question. There are too many mysteries now. What kind of sect is Trumen? How many people are from the Blood Night Sect in Trumen? Is Trumen actually the Blood Night Sect? But the most lacking thing now is time. Luo Yixi cannot put all his hopes on Yunyang.
"You must know a lot about plants. Is there any way to tell what raw materials they use to mask the smell?"
Du Xuerong frowned slightly, and then said uncertainly: "It's difficult. If it's made of a variety of materials, it's impossible to find it."
"Then we will narrow our focus to herbs with a light fragrance and herbs that can suppress the smell of blood."
"I'll try my best to look for it"
"So you are here." A familiar voice suddenly appeared behind Luo Yixi. It was the mother of the child. In fact, when he came over, Luo Yixi had already noticed it and was just observing this woman's face. Behavior, after all, it is uncertain whether anyone in the village is complicit.
The woman did not immediately walk in their direction, but asked everywhere. It was obvious that she was unaware of the magic wolf legs.
"To repay you two, I have prepared meals for you two. I hope you two can dine with us."
