The pastoral concubine of space

Chapter 161 Demonic Qi
On the way, Huo Qi and Fang Lin asked a lot of things from Shen He, such as the specific population of Giethoorn Village, the number of young and middle-aged people, how many women there are, and more detailed meanings of the government and so on.

As a yamen servant, Shen He didn't say much about these things, it would be the same.

There are more than 120 people in the entire Giethoorn Village, of which the total number of young and middle-aged people does not exceed 50, which is not too many, but as long as someone wants to make trouble, the old, weak, women and children will be the first to stand in front of them. Do you chop people up and kill them when you see them?
In terms of ferocity, I am afraid that even some government servants of the fish and meat people are not as good as the people in Giethoorn Village.

"The people in Yangjiao Village are very smart. They know that their village is not welcome, and they are feared and hated by others. They are afraid that they will be mobilized and attacked. Every year when it is time to pay taxes and grains, they are very honest. In the eyes of the county magistrate Come on, apart from the despicable customs in their village, it is quite worry-free, especially the more than a hundred rations for the disaster year that they don't take, which can be saved for other old and weak, so that more people can survive, It still counts as a good thing.”

Because of this, as long as people in Giethoorn Village don't become more and more popular, and uphold the principle that more things are worse than less things, the county magistrate will naturally turn a blind eye and close his eyes, just doing nothing.

Xiao Yunchu just sneered, "But in the same way, the price for people in Yangjiao Village not to provide relief food is that the innocent girls in their village will die."

Shen He nodded solemnly.

In short, after all, this Giethoorn Village must be eliminated.

The geographical location of Giethoorn Village is just as Shen He said, it is not easy to find, the main reason is that there are no villages and towns willing to communicate with them, except for a regular visit every year to collect grain, no one will go to the place where people cannibalize, so go to Yangjiao There is almost no decent road in the village, and you don't know where to find it.

Although Huo Qi and the others knew the location of Giethoorn Village long ago, it was still Shen He who led them to the small village with scattered houses.

When they arrived, they happened to be preparing dinner in the evening, and from a distance, they could see smoke rising from the chimneys of many houses in the village, and they could still hear the villagers talking and laughing with the extraordinary hearing of the monks. At first glance, it seems to be no different from other villages.

But thinking of the things they heard in the restaurant, the four of them couldn't help but think, what kind of ingredients are used for the dinner that the people in the village are making at this time?Is it a dish?Or...meat?

"Who are you! Why are you here!" Just as they were about to walk towards the entrance of the village, they saw a strong man with a fierce expression holding a hoe in his hand, blocking their way.

Behind this person, many people gradually gathered, as if they had already noticed that there was a stranger approaching the village.

Feng Yunxiu and the others were not surprised by this, because when they were several hundred meters away from the village, they noticed someone secretly watching them in the grass not far away, probably someone from Giethoorn Village who was in charge of tracking them .

It can also be seen from this that Giethoorn Village is indeed unusual.

Which normal village would send people to guard the way into the village in a peaceful and prosperous age?

When these people appeared, Shen He, who had been very active before, hid behind the Pojun people for some reason, as if he didn't want to be seen by the people of Giethoorn Village.

But Feng Yunxiu and others were not in the mood to think about his actions. As the only two foundation-building stage monks, Feng Yunxiu and Xiao Yunchu's expressions changed when they saw the old man who was the leader among those people.

Because Feng Yunxiu was not very familiar with the things in the cultivation world, he couldn't understand what was going on for a while, but when Xiao Yunchu looked at the black energy wrapped around the old man's body, he uttered two words with a cold face: "—Demon Qi."

"I don't know where you guys came from. They don't look like locals. What are you doing in our village?" The old man in charge spoke politely, but he spoke first with a little suspicion.

The old man looked benevolent, with a medium build and regular facial features. He seemed to be a very sensible elder.

But Xiao Yunchu knew that this was all an illusion.

"Are you the village head here?"

"Yes, you—"

Xiao Yunchu interrupted him directly, his eyes were sharp and cold, and his tone was even less polite, "Old man, you should be a hundred years old, but you look like you are only 70 or [-] years old. How much did you eat that you shouldn't eat?" Is it possible to maintain this state?"

The expressions of the people in Giethoorn Village immediately changed when they heard this. At first, the burly man shouted angrily, "You really are here to ask for trouble!"

The people next to them also revealed the hoes and sticks that they thought they had hidden well from behind, and they all looked aggressively, looking at Feng Yunxiu and his group as if they were looking at enemies.

"Is it up to you outsiders to take care of the affairs of our village?"

"We can eat whatever we want, the government doesn't care, what are you!"

"If you are acquainted, hurry up and get out, otherwise, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!"

The members of the Pojun squad were annoyed, and hearing the tone of these villagers, it seemed that they were used to this kind of bandit behavior, and they didn't know the slightest scruples when they threatened people.

Isn't it because of the large number of people, the people in the town may be afraid, and they will be afraid of these scumbags if they break the army?

Fang Lin heard the words Xiao Yunchu murmured just now, and asked curiously in a low voice: "Ma'am, what is the 'devil energy' you mentioned just now? Are you referring to the people from Giethoorn Village?"

Those who broke the army turned a deaf ear to the clamor of the villagers in Yangjiao Village, and also pricked up their ears, waiting for Xiao Yunchu to popularize science.

Xiao Yunchu said with a serious face: "Ordinary people can absorb spiritual energy and use it for their own use after training their energy into the body and becoming a monk, but in this world, spiritual energy is not the only thing, on the contrary, it is demonic energy. Once a person loses his humanity , hands stained with too much blood, and even distorted to a certain extent, there is a chance to transform from a human to a demon. The initial sign is that the whole body will be entangled with demonic energy. When the demonic energy accumulates to a certain extent, it will completely become a demon. "

Xiao Yunchu stared coldly at the old man who retreated to the middle of the crowd and was protected by a few strong men, and his voice was piercingly cold, "As the most prestigious person in the village, the village chief naturally enjoys the best treatment and eats the most. , and the oldest, over the years, the demonic energy around his body is so strong that it is unappetizing, and he will be completely transformed into a demon just a little bit away. Therefore, his appearance looks much younger than his actual age. After becoming a demon, he may still be able to Younger, as if they are young and strong. The other people are also entangled with demonic energy without exception, but they are much worse than this bad old man, but in time, if their evil deeds are not stopped..."

Feng Yun patched up what she hadn't finished, "One day, everyone in the entire village will become demons."

Although the people who broke the army still had no specific concept of 'magic', they could tell from the dignified faces of the two masters that it was definitely not a good thing.

In fact, they still underestimated the danger of demons. Once a person becomes a demon, he is already another species. Not only is the name different, but even the value of force will change completely. After becoming a demon, greed is everywhere, not satisfied with the status quo, and will definitely attack and endanger people in the town, even the county, and even the entire Yanzhou Prefecture.

People in the town only know that the people in Giethoorn Village are cannibalistic, but they probably don’t know that the more people in Giethoorn Village eat, the younger they look. The villagers who should have looked older than ordinary people due to years of hard work, almost everyone looked several years younger than their actual age.

The people in Giethoorn must have discovered this change, so they became more and more unable to stop, and even gave up the last bit of humanity.

Even though she and Feng Yunxiu had made up their mind before coming here that they would not let the people of Giethoorn Village go, seeing these deranged half-demons with their own eyes, she changed her mind again.

No one here is innocent at all. For these people, any gentle means are unnecessary, just one word, kill!
