Chapter 13 See Through Everything (2 in 1)

Looking at Feng Changqing, Wan Wen had a somewhat surprised expression, but Pei Min didn't explain much.

All of this person's thinking is dominated by the brain. Under extreme fear, hallucinations will arise and bring the illusions in his mind to reality.

The legendary dragon has nine similarities, snake body, lizard legs, eagle claws, snake tails, deer antlers, mirage belly, fish scales, rabbit eyes, and the appearance depicted by women is almost the same as the legendary dragon.

If the woman said that the soldiers who traveled with Gongsun Xi were no different, Pei Min would still believe it, but now she is 80% unbelievable.

"Tonight, let the brothers work harder, surround the surroundings, and burn more bonfires. Since the monsters choose to attack at night, it is very likely that they are nocturnal monsters, and they are their world at night. We have inherent weaknesses in this regard, and we don't have to attack each other's strengths based on our own weaknesses. I have gathered all the people in the village, cattle, sheep, and chickens, and I must protect all the people, as well as cattle, sheep, and chickens. By the way, we also have the military horses we ride, and we must protect them well."

Pei Min calmly gave the order.

Feng Changqing followed Pei Min for the longest time, and had already realized what Pei Min meant, and said, "Young Master is planning to cut off the monster's ration?"

"Yes!" Pei Min said: "According to the characteristics of creatures, beasts generally do not attack people. Humans are afraid of beasts, and beasts are even more afraid of humans. Usually, there are three possibilities for beasts to attack people. One is that people pose a threat to it and it is frightened. The other is that people enter its territory and they have to swear sovereignty; and the last common one is that they are hungry, and they need to supplement food. According to my judgment, that monster belongs to the third category."

He paused and said, "But the specific situation still needs to be clear about the information."

Feng Changqing nodded his head and said to Wan Wen beside him: "Mr. General Wan worked hard last night and today. You brothers have a good rest tonight. Let me leave the responsibility of guarding."

Wan Wen was not polite and replied: "According to the meaning of the governor of Feng."

Feng Changqing and Wan Wen have gone down.

Pei Min did not ask, he believed that Feng Changqing could handle all this properly.

The sky gradually darkened.

Pei Min went to pay tribute to Pei's mother, and comforted her to go to bed early and have a good rest.

Older people are very concerned and can't sleep whenever they have any worries.

No need to think that after the incident last night, Pei's mother has not slept much until now.

Pei Min and Jiao Chen are still young, so it’s okay to sleep less. Pei’s mother is old and not having enough sleep is not good for her health.

Assisting Pei's mother to sleep, she talked to Jiaochen for a while, and accompanied Xiaoqi and Xiaoba for a while.

Until the supervisor Xiaoqi and Xiaoba went to bed, Jiao Chen gently held Pei Min's hand and said, "Go, there is my wife here!"

Pei Min kissed Jiao Chen gently on Jiao Chen's forehead, handed everything here to Jiao Chen with confidence, and walked towards the village official office.

It was already night, but the lights were on the village office.

Feng Changqing arranged the escorts in the village and helped the old village chief organize the information with Wang Xiaobai.

When Pei Min returned to the official office, the old village chief had already sorted out the information.

Looking at the mountains of letters in front of him, Pei Min cheered up and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work in the old village chief, you can go to bed first."

The old village chief said with a spirited look: "It's okay, for Xun'er and for my mother who is unwilling to die, the old man has given up his old bones and is here to accompany the Duke and never go anywhere. The Duke has anything to ask, just ask me."

Pei Minzhi advised him not to move and said, "This is it, it's spacious anyway! Xiaobai, go find some bedding and make a few floors, and we will stay here at night. If you are tired, just lie down."

The old village chief did not reject Pei Min's kindness either.

Pei Min carefully read the files of Yuquan Village, and it turned out to be as the old village chief said.

The earliest record of the news about the evil dragon was 150 years ago.

This does not mean that the evil dragon appeared a hundred and fifty years ago, but that it did not belong to the territory of China.

The governance methods are very different.

No relevant records were left, and there were no clear records until the Sui Dynasty.

However, the Sui Dynasty's fortune was too short, which led to the Turks being particularly powerful, even better than the peak of the Huns in the past.

Hexi has had several strange masters, which are very chaotic and have many records left behind.

It was not until Li Yuan unified the world that the records were detailed and complete.

Looking at the records of the volumes.

Feng Changqing, who helped to help, first discovered some situations and asked: "Duke, have you noticed that the evil dragon appeared many times, and it seems to be irregular. But late spring and early summer, that is, during this period, it appears most frequently. In these files, the first record of the evil dragon was around Qingming Festival. My subordinates saw that the evil dragon appeared thirty years ago. In these 120 years, the evil dragon appeared more than ten times during this period. This is only a clear record, including doubts, more. Just like this time..."

He handed the file in his hand to Pei Min, pointed to the words on it and said: "In the first year of Shengli, the Wang family and Hei Shui in Yuquan Town fetched water. The pack horse was frightened and lost. The Wang family's son came to ask many times, but the yamen runners failed to pursue it and disappeared. Most of the pack horses were kept and were very familiar with the family. Normally, even if they were lost, they would come back by themselves, unless they encountered an accident."

Pei Min also had this feeling, but Feng Changqing looked quickly, and he saw it carefully, so he said it first. A sharp look flashed in his eyes and said, "Does Changqing refer to the habit of all monsters that are Dongzhe?"

Winter sting means hibernation, but it was called winter sting in ancient times.

Feng Changqing said: "The subordinates grew up in the Western Regions. There is a brown bear in the Western Regions, which is different from the black bears in the Central Plains. They have to fight many of them, and even jackals, tigers and leopards dare not provoke them. There is a saying in our place that we cannot enter the mountains around the Qingming Festival. It is because of this period that the big bears wake up. When they are hungry, they will attack all living things. Unless they run faster than it, even the bravest people will die."

Pei Min knew that Feng Changqing was talking about the big brown bear. In later generations, the big brown bear was the largest carnivorous animal in the world.

The living environment in ancient times was harsh, and all kinds of wild animals were bigger than those in later generations.

It is conceivable how terrible the big brown bear during the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions was.

Pei Min also thought of that monster because of this. Perhaps it was a product he knew, but it was just an ancient version. Like the mutated one, it might be an extinct creature in later generations and did not exist.

After all, the great national treasure panda was called Pi in the ancient "Book of Books", Bai Ju in the "Mao Song", Emei Mountain Records, and Beast Sutra were called Pixiu and Rak.

Whether it is Pi, Ju, Pi Xiu or Raccoon, they all mean beasts. Even the first cat bear is an omnivorous bear, and its attack power is terrible.

But after only a hundred years of changes, what else can giant pandas do besides acting cute and coquettish?

The harshest the environment, the stronger the genes of organisms are.

Whether it is a beast or a human!

Feng Changqing continued: "So his subordinates suspected that the current monster may be the most ferocious time..." After a pause, he said: "It is also the best time to seduce."

Pei Min grinned a bit ferociously. This was a good discovery, and it was in line with his suspicion.

Pei Min continued to analyze the file and flipped it all to the last volume. After reading it all, he also discovered a very strange situation.

It turns out that there are many news of evil dragons appearing, but whether it is Ganquan Town in history or Heishui Village closer to Heishui, they have not taken the evil dragon to heart.

Most of them regard it as a rumor and an incomplete story.

It was not until the last forty or fifty years that the evil dragon had paid attention to it, which caused quite a lot of panic.

Especially in the past five or six years, evil dragons have become more rampant and frequent chaos, which directly led to the entire village of Heishui Village moving away.

Pei Min felt abnormal when he saw it.

After taking a look, Pei Min, the old village chief who was sleeping beside him, whispered to Feng Changqing about his discovery.

Feng Changqing nodded seriously and said, "All weird things are so rampant. In order not to cause storms in the early years, he has to be so arrogant until now? Logically speaking, monsters cannibalize people. The more people there are, the happier and more active it is. Why are there fewer people and the more rampant people they become?"

Feng Changqing's unintentional words made Pei Min feel moved.

After turning the scroll again, thinking about the general trend of Hexi, I couldn't help but punch my left fist and right palm, and said, "I understand! That monster was also affected by the environment and the general trend of the world, so I had to change my living habits. If we want to survive, it must survive..."

The sound he couldn't help but make woke the sleepy old village chief up and looked at the quilt covered with his body.

The old village chief pressed his eyes hazy and smiled bitterly: "I really overestimate myself, so I'd go to sleep for a while and I really can't sit still."

Pei Min hurriedly stopped him and said, "The old village chief, don't sleep. It's just right that you're awake. You're asking you if you have something to do."

The old village chief touched his face and said, "Please speak with you, Duke!"

Pei Min said: "You once said that Yuquan Village was originally Yuquan Town. Can you take the initiative to ask when it failed? It shouldn't be completely flooding, right?"

The old village chief paused and said with a wry smile: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the Duke, so the Duke made the Duke's assertion. In fact, sixty or seventy years ago, Yuquan Village was no longer available, and its popularity gradually decreased. Passers-by were far inferior to those of the past. The shops in the village that were originally prosperous were closed one by one. At that time, there was no way, so the village chief took the villagers to dig up fields and make a living."

Pei Min nodded. Everything was reasonable.

The old village chief was anxious and asked, "But what's wrong?"

Pei Min shook his head and said, "No, it's just that I figured out some things and understood the causes and consequences. Of course, it's all my random thoughts, and I don't know whether it's right or wrong. Listen to what are the mistakes and omissions."

"First of all!" Pei Min said: "Start with the situation in Xizhou, Xizhou is extremely cold in the east and cool in summer, long in winter and short in autumn. This harsh climate is not suitable for the growth of delicate plants. Therefore, most places with water are endless grasslands. Only weeds can adapt to the environment here, which leads to the development of animal husbandry."

"The richer the water resources, the richer the place will be. Yuquan Town is filled with the light of black water and has become one of the few rich places in Shazhou. Passers-and-goers and travelers are all mainly Yuquan. However, ninety years ago, the Tiankhan of our Tang Dynasty opened the Silk Road, and later even destroyed Gaochang and arrived in the Western Regions of Ding."

"The opening of this Silk Road, Dunhuang and Jiuquan immediately benefited a hundred times, but Yuquan Town was greatly affected. People went to high places and water flowed to low places. This is an unchanging truth. The Silk Road is too rich and has a great impact, while Yuquan Town is far away from the Silk Road, with a small structure, and the inevitable loss of popularity..."

"During this period, the news of the evil dragon has always existed. However, it is not taken seriously. It is probably because the monster dares not come out. We are afraid of it, and it is even more afraid of us. In addition, it mostly appears at night. In places where cattle and sheep are everywhere, it is not taken seriously. After all, this is a place where horse thieves are prevalent. What is it to lose a few cattle and sheep?"

"Later, the biggest stupid thing you did was to give up animal husbandry and develop farming."

Speaking of this, Pei Min's tone became a little heavier.

"Your river bank has no flood control facilities at all. Without a certain reasonable plan, water digging and digging the land, which generally destroys the local water and soil, causing flooding, causing surrounding land. The pastoral cannot be pastoral, farming cannot be plowed, and ecological damage..."

"The flooding happened was caused by you, and this has nothing to do with that monster..."

"There are fewer cattle and sheep in Yuquan Town and Heishui Village. The difficulty of the monster hunting food has increased, so it becomes arrogant and rampant, and it appears frequently."

"Especially in recent years, the Silk Road has developed to its peak. The dilapidated Heishui Village and Yuquan Village are even more difficult to retain people. The sky is not beautiful, and the floods are frequent. You should go and run. The monsters are even more food to hunt. In addition, Dongzhe is hungry, so you can't help but come to Yuquan Village to hunt..."

"If I didn't make the estimation wrong, the cause and effect will be like this."

Pei Min read all the relevant copywriting word by word. With his imagination that broke through the sky and combined with some objective factors, he made up for the difference from top to bottom, and came to such a conclusion.

The old village chief looked at Pei Min even more like a monster, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Feng Changqing was also a little surprised, but he already knew that his immediate boss was powerful and had a certain degree of immunity, so he quickly reacted.

As for Wang Xiaobai's calm face, he was as simple as his name, and was not good at such brain-using activities, what Pei Min said was right anyway.

After a while, the old village chief said in a daze: "In this way, all of this is what we have brought to ourselves? Are we deserved the sin?"

“Yes, not!”

Pei Min stood up and said, "It is indeed your fault to destroy the water and soil and cause flooding. It requires self-reflection, but it does not mean that the wild beast has reason to eat your cattle and sheep, or even living people."

"It wants to survive, and we humans must survive. The prey of the weak in nature is cruel. We cannot sit idly by and watch it attack us again and again, and there is only one way to get rid of it."

The old village chief moved and said, "How to divide it?"
