Xiao Freckles and Yang Ke walked around the village for a long time in the past two days, and immediately knew what Cheng Miao meant, "There are not many young people, mostly middle-aged and old people."
"This is also normal. I heard that there was a serious differentiation between rural and urban areas in the past. There were many migrant workers, and many of them were empty-nesters." Wang Yang's two teammates were lying in the room, and he was the only one who could come out and use his brain.
Cheng Miao nodded, "Many old people who have been sick in the past two years are eagerly waiting for the tree god to choose them so that they can die painlessly, but no one has been chosen."
Lin Zhu nodded. He washed his face with well water and became more awake. He followed Cheng Miao's train of thought and said, "I heard from the villagers that only two sick young people were married by the tree god last year."
"What do you mean?" Miao Jie is not very good at reasoning, and she feels that this copy should be specially prepared for her. These people cannot understand the beliefs of the village, but she can.
Her thinking should be right, and they should sincerely believe in the tree god.
"It means that because there are not enough young people to get married all year round, now we suddenly come to this village and will leave soon, so the process will be accelerated." Tan Ge seemed to be reticent, but unexpectedly his thoughts were very clear.
Miao Jie pursed her lips and said nothing. She still didn't believe that they had believed in the plant god and the earth god for generations, so how could they be bad.
"Then why are we okay?" Miao Jie thought of a breakthrough. She pointed at herself and then at Cheng Miao.
"Those of us who were the first to visit the ancestral hall didn't receive grass rings and didn't get sick."
Cheng Miao nodded, "I haven't thought of this, I only have a rough guess. Generally, people go in when they see the ancestral hall. They don't believe it, but they are definitely still interested. So it is easier for us than those who don't enter the ancestral hall at the first time. 'capture'".
"That is to say, Miaomiao, you will also receive grass rings, but later than us. When the more stubborn of us become so-called believers, the next target will be you." Qin Musong covered his mouth with his fist and coughed twice.
Cheng Miao looked at Qin Musong with some worry and said, "That's what I guessed. Whether it's true or not depends on the development later."
Qin Musong smiled and patted her to reassure her.
But except for Miao Jie and Chang Qing, who were somewhat disapproving, everyone else present could not relax.
Except for one person.
"Shua"
"Ah!! You! What are you doing!!"
Wang Yang's frightened screams sounded, and everyone turned around to see a horrific scene.
Shi Biao, who was originally standing outside the crowd, was cut off from the neck with a sharp weapon by Zu Gehan who suddenly struck. When his head rolled on the ground, his eyes blinked in disbelief.
The headless body on the ground in the pool of blood looked shocking, and everyone moved away with ugly expressions.
Wang Yang simply sat on the ground and shrank back, "You...you killed someone! You are a team-killing player!"
Zu Gehan's hand was now a prop, a sharp blade. He glanced at Wang Yang with a smile, and his hand returned to its original form, with blood still dripping from the slender fingertips.
"Destroy players? I'm not that boring."
Zu Gehan looked at everyone. Except for Cheng Miao and the others, they were not surprised. The others tensed up as if they had seen the dungeon boss.
"Ah..." Zu Gehan scratched his head, "I hate the explanation part the most."
"He enjoys snatching people's props outside of the dungeon." Zu Gehan pointed at Shi Biao, who was still staring blankly. "This was nothing at first, but he gradually developed into a person who stole things from female players and tried to rape them."
In a word, the female players who were still a little frightened all cast a hateful look at the corpse on the ground.
"In ancient times, raping a woman was punishable by death." Zu Gehan shrugged and made it clear in a few words.
Wang Yang stood up staggeringly. They were in the copy with Shi Biao. He didn't know what Shi Biao said to them. Anyway, he didn't believe this man now.
His hands can turn into knives, and there are strange lines in his eyes. He looks more like a criminal no matter how he looks.
"Even if this is the case, then why did you not take action when you entered the dungeon, and now you suddenly kill people?!" Wang Yang stayed far away from Zu Gehan, keeping a distance that he could run at any time.
Zu Gehan looked at Wang Yang as if he was mentally retarded, "Of course it's because the information in the copy was unclear at the beginning. If we act in a hurry, what if he is a key figure or has some information?"
Zu Gehan turned around and bowed slightly to Cheng Miao. The gentleman's elegant movements paired with his bleeding right hand had a morbid beauty.
"Now that Miss Cheng has a clear understanding of the general situation of the copy, he naturally can't keep it."
"Why should I believe what you say!" Wang Yang stood there, feeling a little at a loss when he saw that others had already believed Zu Gehan.
"I didn't let you believe it," Zu Gehan went to the well to get water to wash his hands, and the thick blood was washed away with the water.
"Didn't you ask me and I answered?"
Zu Gehan raised his lips at Wang Yang and said, "Letting players live with suspicion and fear is inconsistent with my justice."
Wang Yang was completely speechless. He walked around Zu Gehan and returned to the room, telling the news to his two teammates who were still lying on the bed.
Cheng Miao watched Zu Gehan wash his hands slowly, but he felt relieved.
Players who have passed this level generally do not participate in dungeons, and of course they will not be given any hints, such as Qiu Dong.
But from Zu Gehan's action of killing Shi Biao, it can be seen that Cheng Miao's speculation is quite accurate.
Cheng Miao glanced at the corpse on the ground and felt a little headache, "What should I do with this corpse? I'm afraid it will scare the villagers."
Zu Gehan wiped his hands with a rag and snapped his fingers.
The square little robot that Cheng Miao and the others had seen before appeared out of nowhere.
It held Shi Biao's feet with one hand and carried his head with the other as he walked towards the back of the yard.
He looks about the same height as Xiao Lin, but his strength and intelligence are much better.
Seeing the little robot dragging Shi Biao's body away, everyone had different expressions, but they all stayed away from Zu Gehan.
Zu Gehan didn't mind at all. He looked at Cheng Miao and said, "I have benefited from you a few days ago, so I will cook today."
Cheng Miao knew that Zu Gehan was not a bad person, and she quite liked Zu Gehan.
"Then I'm sorry to bother you, we just have to go out, so we might not be able to help."
Zu Gehan smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind, "It's okay, I didn't do it."
He made a fist with his right hand and pointed back with his thumb, "It will bury the body and wipe the ground before cooking."
Although the others had no intention of eating, their faces became greener when they heard that he wanted the robot that had just disposed of the body to cook.
Cheng Miao didn't care, and said, "Clean up cleanly."
