After passing through the cannon fodder villain in the book, the heroine confessed to me

Chapter 37 The bait has been cast, just wait for the fish to take the bait
"Just now, there is something wrong with the last flame that the fire crow emitted. In terms of power, it is far from what it can control at this level."

Qin Yunshuo tried his best to ignore the yin and yang of the system in his mind. Although he knew Jiang Miao couldn't hear it, he still felt a little guilty.

The suspicion of framing the protagonist hasn't been cleared yet. If he is charged with "greedy people's body", tsk, Qin Yunshuo seems to have seen the scene where he was hacked into a scumbag.

Although just because of a momentary brain twitch, I didn't take my hand back in time.But since Jiang Miao himself didn't say anything, it shouldn't be a big problem... right?

Jiang Miao had already skillfully shielded the blinding Sword Soul, but Jiang Miao didn't think too much about it. The focus right now was still on the task.

"Brother's words are reasonable. Considering the situation in the Cave just now, I already have some ideas. However, I have to wait until I return to Ningyuan Village to discuss specific actions."

The strange number of bones, the mysterious figure united with the fire crow, and his sword being tampered with. These doubts seemed to have gradually become a thread. Jiang Miao felt that he had faintly touched the truth.

After returning to Ningyuan Village, Jiang Miao said something to Bai Yuanqing in a low voice. Bai Yuanqing was surprised, but out of trust in Jiang Miao, she didn't say anything, but quietly left the team.

The rest of them, led by Jiang Miao, went straight to the village chief's house. On the way, they ran into Tang Xiangling who was wandering in the village. However, when she asked how the task was completed, the people who had been told by Jiang Miao only said that it was the fire crow that caused trouble and had already been driven away. Other aspects, they didn't say much.

Jiang Miao is not a fool, Tang Xiangling's full of malice towards her is enough for her to put Tang Xiangling first in the list of suspects when she has no evidence.As for Qin Yunshuo?Jiang Miao never doubted it. After all, if Qin Yunshuo really wanted to harm her, there would be plenty of opportunities, so it would be wrong to use such a blatant method.

What's more, just now, I have just been rescued by my senior brother. If my senior brother really did something, what is he trying to do?
Several people came to the village chief's house all the way, opened the door and filed in. They chose to turn a blind eye to the curious villagers standing outside the door.

"Several fairy elders are back? How is the situation, are you not injured?"

The village head showed a concerned expression on his face, especially when he saw that there was one person missing in the team, he was even more worried, for fear that these demon-killing immortals would bring him some bad news.

Jiang Miao smiled, showing a little pride on her face, and deliberately raised her voice.

"Please don't worry, the village chief. It's just a fire crow. How can it hurt us? We have seriously injured that evil animal today, and we dare not even go back to its lair. I'm waiting to go back to the village, just because I'm afraid it will take the opportunity to retaliate."

Speaking of this, Jiang Miao looked at the village chief intently, and saw that when Jiang Miao mentioned the word "revenge", there was a look of panic on his face, but there seemed to be some subtleties in it.

Sure enough, the village head must know some inside information. His panic just now can be explained as fear of revenge from monsters.But it seemed too much. After all, Jiang Miao didn't say that he was waiting for others to leave. As long as he completely killed the monster, how could he be afraid of being retaliated?

The expression of the village head just now was more like a panic that a secret was about to be discovered.

"Don't worry, everyone. We have already found out that the missing villagers in Pangui Village were all killed by this fire crow. Since the beast never came here, it means that it was seriously injured. We only need to search for three to five days, and we will be able to kill this beast completely and give you peace."

I have helped you achieve the result you want.Next, you should also take action, right?

Jiang Miao, who accepted the villagers' thanks, secretly looked at the unnatural village head and Tang Xiangling, who was expressionless, with a gleam in his eyes.

Since it was already afternoon when several people returned to the village, everyone unanimously decided to take a rest early after eating, so as to recharge their energy and prepare for tomorrow's mountain search.

The three of Qin Yunshuo still lived in the village chief's house. After chatting with each other about some unnutritive topics, they went to rest, leaving only the old village chief with a hesitant expression on his face. In the end, he sighed, blew out the candle, and went to bed to rest.

At midnight, when everything is quiet, because of the season, there is no sound of cicadas outside the courtyard, only the breeze occasionally blows the leaves, making a "rustling" sound, but it will disappear soon.

Suddenly, there was the sound of very light footsteps from the darkness, and then, a figure quietly appeared in the courtyard.Cautiously turned around and looked at the rooms on both sides, seeing that Qin Yunshuo and the others hadn't been woken up, the figure leaped over the wall at an extremely fast speed and disappeared into the night.

Not far away, the village chief looked at the leaving figure, his eyes were full of regret, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word after all, so he had to go back to his bedroom in a depressed mood.

Pushing open the door, the village chief came to the bed in the dark, and seemed to have remembered something, and whispered to himself: "Oh! What a crime!"

"Oh? The village head doesn't sleep at night, but he sighs here and there. I don't know who did the crime? Why don't you tell me, maybe I can help you?"

In the middle of the night, a female voice suddenly sounded in his bedroom. According to logic, what happened next was either very evocative, terrifying, or both.

But the village head knew very well that at his own age, there was a high probability that he would not encounter the above three situations.What's more, this voice is quite familiar, very similar to that of the fairy named Jiang Miao.

The room became brighter as a flame lit the candlestick.The village head squinted his eyes to get used to it, and when he looked carefully, he saw Jiang Miao and Qin Yunshuo beside her.

"Why didn't the village chief speak? Could it be because he couldn't speak? In that case, let's talk about something else, for example, the identity of the person who just climbed over the wall."

The village chief's expression was suddenly startled, and then he said with a dry smile: "I don't know what Jiang Xianchang meant by this? The old man just got up at night, and the sky was too dark, so he didn't notice anything. Could it be that a thief jumped over the wall just now?"

Jiang Miao quietly looked at him pretending to be confused, without interrupting or forcing questions. After a long time, the village chief was almost sweating from Jiang Miao's gaze, and Jiang Miao got up and sighed.

"Since the village chief doesn't want to say it, I can't force him to ask. It's just that you don't wonder why the girl who was with me is not here?"

The village chief stood up abruptly, then sat down in a daze, raised his head dejectedly, and said with a wry smile.

"Immortal Jiang is really astute. I'm afraid I saw something wrong with the old man early in the morning, right? Forget it, after that Immortal Bai returns, I will definitely not be able to hide this matter. If you have any questions, just ask them directly. I will never hide anything."

"I want to ask a lot of questions. Since you are willing to cooperate, why not tell me who was that person just now?"

Jiang Miao asked, of course, the person who climbed over the wall from the village chief's house in the middle of the night.Although Bai Yuanqing had already gone after him, but she was not sure about the identity of this person, so she couldn't continue talking about other topics.

The matter has come to this point, and the village head is not hiding it anymore, with a strong distress in his eyes, he said shyly.

"He...is my son, Guo Luming."
