"Are you a master? I wonder what their abilities are? You should pay close attention to them later!" Wang Zhe secretly observed the two people.
When everyone arrived in the village, the two experts invited by Huang Shen immediately inspected the scene. After some discussion, they went to find the county lieutenant. They wanted to enter the mountain and hoped that the county lieutenant could send arresters to help.
Not long after, several carriages also entered the mountain village. The carriages were filled with wine jars, several large nets, and a bundle of linoleum torches, which they asked Huang Shen to prepare.
In addition, they also bought two sheep from the village and planned to take them to the mountain together.
When they heard that they were going to the mountains to search for monsters that killed villagers, these detectives were very resistant.
"What are you afraid of? You are all cowards. It is our duty to protect the safety of one place!" What the head catcher Zhu Xiao said was impassioned and righteous.
But it was useless, everyone was still unwilling to enter the mountain.
"Entering the mountain, each person will receive fifty taels of silver!" The white-faced man only said one sentence, and the eyes of these detectives lit up.
Money and silk are very attractive. Fifty taels is equivalent to their salary for several years.
"The two of us are walking at the front. If you encounter a monster, you can run away at any time."
This sentence more or less dispelled some people's worries.
"If anyone doesn't want to go, take off these clothes when you get back!" the county captain said coldly.
Intimidation and inducement, all done.
So these policemen followed the two men up the mountain. Each policeman carried a wine jar on his back. Zhu Xiao, holding a steel knife, followed the two men majestically.
Wang Zhe secretly handed a bag of rice to Lao Hou.
"What is this? Glutinous rice, it's still raw. What are you doing with this?" Lao Hou opened it and was stunned.
"I heard that this thing can ward off evil spirits. If it works, it won't weigh too much to carry around."
"What kind of monster do you think that murderer is?"
"I don't know." Wang Zhe shook his head.
There were bloody footprints left at the scene, and there were fingernail scratches on the walls. What was most likely, zombies!
As for whether this glutinous rice is effective against zombies, he doesn't know. What if it works?
"I just don't know if those two guys are good at what they do, but don't let these people get involved!" He raised his head and glanced at the two people walking in front.
"What's in this wine jar we're carrying?" Hou Zhu pointed behind him.
"It should be kerosene!" Wang Zhe said.
Although the outside was sealed, Wang Zhe could still smell the faint smell of kerosene.
"It seems that those two people have guessed what the murderous monster is and thought of a way to deal with it.
I just don't know why they care about this.
To slay demons and protect the Tao? It's definitely not that noble, and he probably can get some benefit from that monster.
"Hey, Azhe, why do I feel so eerie in this mountain forest?"
"Psychological effects."
"Hey, I told you to be careful where you are later. If you feel something is wrong, run away immediately. It's not shameful. It's important to save your life." Lao Hou said in a low voice.
Well, Wang Zhe nodded.
As he walked, he looked back.
"What are you looking at?" Housuke also turned around.
"Our head catcher!" Wang Zhe curled his lips.
Zhu Xiao, who was walking majestically in front and looking very brave just now, unexpectedly reached the back of the team at some point.
"When did this guy run to the back?"
"After the county captain returned, the head catcher quietly fell behind. I think he wanted to serve as our queen," Wang Zhe said.
His five senses are very sharp now, and he pays great attention to the movements around him. He naturally saw Zhu Xiao's little movement just now.
"This guy, bah!" Hou Zhu spat.
The two experts were leading the way, stopping from time to time to look at their feet and surroundings. They had obviously found the path of the zombies.
In addition to leaving footprints where the zombies passed by, the vegetation withered, which was a sign of being corroded by corpse poison.
"Don't touch it, stay away!"
Seeing Lao Hou curiously looking at the black and blue scratches on a tree trunk, Wang Zhe pulled him.
"Keep a close eye on those two people. I always feel that they have bad intentions!" Wang Zhe pointed at the person in front of him.
Well, well, Lao Hou nodded.
Wang Zhe looked around as if nothing had happened, quietly took out a few grains of glutinous rice, and threw it on the footprints left by the zombie. In an instant, the few grains of rice turned blue-black, as if they were burnt.
"It's really useful!"
They climbed over the mountain and went down to the valley between the two mountains. They walked deeper and deeper along the valley for a long distance.
At first I could still hear some birds chirping, but gradually I couldn't hear any birds chirping or insects at all.
Wang Zhe saw a very dense black air coming from a forest in the distance.
The two people walking in front stopped and signaled those behind to stop.
The tall man took out a dagger, cut a gash on the two goats, blood flowed out, and then drove the two goats towards the cave.
Baa, the goat cried out in pain and uneasiness.
After approaching the cave, a black shadow suddenly rushed out of the cave, and then grabbed the two goats inside without even seeing what they looked like. After a while, there was no movement.
All the detectives who saw this scene were dumbfounded.
"monster!"
Someone shouted, and then they retreated unconsciously.
They had seen the miserable conditions of those families in the mountain village, and they didn't want to become like that themselves.
"Don't be afraid, it's afraid of sunlight and flames, and doesn't dare to come out during the day!" said the tall man.
"Azhe, is he telling the truth?" Lao Hou's face also turned very pale.
"Even if it is true, look at the day today and look around us. How many rays of sunshine can we see?"
Wang Zhe pointed to the sky. The clouds covered the sun. Then he pointed to the surroundings. There were lush trees and distant mountains blocking part of the sun. They were in the shadow of the mountains.
"Do you remember the way you came?"
"Remember."
"If something goes wrong later, run away immediately and don't bother anyone." Wang Zhe warned.
"What about you?" Lao Hou couldn't help but ask after hearing this.
"Don't worry, I will definitely run faster than you!" Wang Zhe grinned.
At this time, the tall man asked everyone to take off the wine jars on their backs, gathered together, raised his hands and threw it in the direction of the cave. With a bang, the wine jar shattered, and then he threw a torch past.
There was a roar, and the flames exploded, instantly igniting the surrounding vegetation.
The white-faced man took out a piece of yellow paper from his pocket, muttered something in his mouth, and threw it out. The yellow paper burned in the air, and then the wind started blowing in the forest, blowing the flames straight into the cave. gush.
I could vaguely hear roars coming from the cave.
The flames were swept into the cave by the wind, and the flames in the forest became more and more intense.
