Lu Ziyi's face was calm, listening to the noise of these clan elders, and nodding from time to time.
After these bad old men finished speaking, she said: "You think, with our strength, we are not afraid of those monsters, we are confident."
"I feel that those monsters pose no threat to us at all. Therefore, it doesn't matter to us whether there are those fragments or not. We can just stand and talk without pain in our backs."
"Actually, you are wrong. Among us, he is the only one who is not afraid of those monsters!"
"One of our companions also encountered those monsters last night and was seriously injured. He was even unconscious."
"She is in the back room. If you don't believe it, you can go in and see for yourself."
"As for the unconscious person, her strength is still higher than the two of us. Therefore, even the two of us have no power to fight back against those monsters!"
"It is precisely because our companion was injured by those monsters. Therefore, he wants to get rid of the mastermind as soon as possible. Otherwise, my companion will be in danger of his life!"
"If you think that we don't care about your lives, then we should care about the lives of our companions, right?"
"If you still don't believe it, you might as well think about it. If he really misses and those fragments are taken away by monsters, we, like you, will not be able to save our lives."
"Under such circumstances, if we didn't have absolute confidence in him, if we weren't sure, how could we take this risk?"
"What's more, to put it bluntly, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope now. If we harm you, we are also harming ourselves."
After Lu Ziyi finished speaking, she and Nangong Lingxi turned sideways and made a "please" gesture toward the back room, indicating that they could go in and have a look.
The clan elders looked at each other in confusion. The leading clan elder raised his head towards one person, winked, and motioned for him to go in and take a look.
The latter nodded immediately, and then walked towards the back room.
After a while, he walked out of the back room, walked back to the crowd, and said, "What she said is true. There is indeed a woman lying on the bed in the back room."
"The woman's clothes were torn, her body was injured, and there was blood on the bed. Moreover, she was indeed unconscious. It looked like she had been attacked by something."
"It seems that the injury was scratched by something. But whether it was the result of being attacked by those monsters last night, I can't tell."
"After all, the people who have encountered those monsters are all dead, and their corpses have turned into monsters. Therefore, I am not very sure what the wounds will look like after being attacked by those monsters. Will it be the same as the wounds on his and hers?"
Lu Ziyi heard what he said and immediately took over his words and said: "This companion of mine is very strong, even stronger than the bald man this morning."
"You should have some experience of the strength of that bald man, right? This companion of mine is even stronger than him. Do you think, besides those monsters, who else in this village can cause such a big harm to her?" Where’s the harm?”
The clan elders nodded, acknowledged her words, and then gathered together to discuss in low voices.
Although, Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi could hear clearly what they were discussing.
Listening to their discussion, Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they also sighed in their hearts: Fortunately, Wang Yu rescued Wan Zhu last night.
Without Wanzhu, it would be really difficult to get these villagers to sympathize with him, and it would also be difficult for them to believe what he said.
With Wanzhu, an injured patient lying on the bed, he could provide evidence for himself and convince the villagers that he and he were in the same boat with them, leaving no escape route in case something unexpected happened.
From the whispered conversations among the clan elders, Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi could also tell that the intentions of most of them had changed from opposition to hesitation.
I have to say, this is a good phenomenon.
After the clan elders discussed for a while, the leading clan elder looked at Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi and said, "Girl, what you said makes sense to us."
"But, after all, those fragments are related to the wealth and lives of all of us. So, can you please tell us, after you get those fragments, how do you plan to deal with the mastermind behind it?"
"I know that we bad old men, and even everyone in our village, may not be able to help you. However, I still want to ask you to tell us so that we can at least have some understanding."
Lu Ziyi was silent for a while, then looked at each other with Nangong Lingxi, then nodded and said, "It's okay to tell you, but I don't know if you can understand."
The leader of the tribe replied: "Just tell us, what if we can understand? What's more, it doesn't matter even if we can't understand, we just want to know. If you are willing to tell us, we will be grateful. !”
Although what he said was, "You just need to tell us. Whether we can understand it or not is our business."
But, saying it in such a tactful tone made Lu Ziyi and Nangong Lingxi more acceptable.
Lu Ziyi nodded and replied: "Before I tell you how we are going to deal with the mastermind, I want to correct you on one question."
"That is, those fragments are actually effective against those monsters, but you have not understood the principles and have not used them correctly."
When the clan elders looked puzzled or even unconvinced, Lu Ziyi explained: "Those monsters can only move under the control of the mist in the woods."
"Essentially speaking, those are not monsters, they are just puppets controlled by the mist. Their essence is corpses!"
"The reason why those monsters can only come to the village at night and retreat into the woods during the day is because the fog will permeate the village at night. However, due to the problem of sight at night, you cannot see Just arrived."
"When the sun rises, the mist, perhaps because it is afraid of the sun, will retreat from the village and retreat into the woods."
"This is the reason why those monsters only appear at night and leave the village as soon as the sun comes up!"
The clan elders suddenly showed expressions of realization, but then someone asked again: "But, what does this have to do with the fragments?"
Lu Ziyi continued to explain: "Because, those fragments, in essence, restrain the mist!"
"You said before that when the fragments are inserted into those monsters, they will stop moving, but when the fragments are pulled out, they will resume action. Therefore, you feel that the fragments cannot kill those monsters at all."
"Actually, in essence, those monsters are corpses and dead. There is no question of whether they can be killed."
"When you insert the fragments into those monsters, the fragments have actually taken effect, and the function of the fragments is to dispel the control of the fog on those monsters."
"And when you pulled out the fragments, the mist took control of the monsters again. This is the reason why those monsters came back to life."
The clan elders all widened their eyes. Their expressions revealed disbelief that this was the case, as well as shame.
They really didn't expect that the reason why those monsters were able to come back from the dead was not that the fragments were ineffective against them, nor that they were truly immortal.
Rather, because those monsters were originally dead, but were controlled by the mist.
They really didn't expect that these people could figure it out after just a few days of coming here.
This is true, people will die when comparing with others, and goods will be thrown away when comparing goods!
The gap between people is really huge!
While sighing, an idea came to the minds of the clan elders:
Perhaps, it is really possible for them to help the village solve these anomalies and restore the village to its former appearance.
