Chapter 38 Where are the people!
Lu Qing looked at the child running happily around the big tree in front of him and couldn't help but say to Li Xun: "Sir, have you made a mistake? How could evil spirits appear here?"
Qian Kui also looked at Li Xun with confusion.
The situation in front of them was really too unexpected. They thought Dujia Village should be in a panic now. Who would have thought it would be so quiet and peaceful?
Li Xun frowned and looked at the running children, and felt a little confused. With Li Xun Guanzhi's children full of vitality and carefreeness, they are definitely the most normal strangers.
Three strangers appeared at the entrance of the village, and the playful children stopped playing and looked at the three of them from afar with curiosity.
One child seemed to be the king of the children among several children, and he plucked up his courage to say to Li Xun and the other two: "Who are you...you?"
Li Xun stepped forward and looked at the child who was standing there with a hint of fear in his eyes but still stubbornly, and said, "Is this Dujia Village?"
The child nodded and said crisply: "Yes, this is Dujia Village. Are you looking for the village chief's grandfather?"
Li Xun raised his eyebrows and said, "Hey, how do you know I'm looking for your village chief?"
When the child heard this, he immediately looked proud and said, "Because someone came to look for the village chief's grandfather yesterday! It was the village chief's house I took him to!"
After a move in his heart, Li Xun smiled slightly, reached out to take out an evil talisman from his arms and handed it to the child, saying, "Little brother, you take us to find the village chief, and I'll give this thing to you, okay?"
The child looked at the evil-removing talisman that Li Xun had never seen before, and nodded at Li Xun with a little curiosity in his eyes and said, "You guys come with me!"
As he said that, his clear eyes stared at the evil-exorcist talisman in Li Xun's hand, Li Xun stepped forward and handed the evil-exorcist talisman to the child and said, "This is the peace talisman, and you can keep it safe."
While speaking, Li Xun's big hand fell on the head of the child on the evil-removing talisman, and gently rubbed it. Li Xun nodded in his heart.
After having an experience in Hanjialing, Li Xun knew very well that some powerful evil spirits had powerful abilities. If such evil spirits used their methods, even ordinary night watchmen would accidentally get into the truth.
Judging from the case transferred from the county government office, there are problems no matter how you look at Dujia Village. Li Xun does not want to repeat Han Jialing's mistakes because of a temporary carelessness.
So although these children did not seem to be evil things, Li Xun still used the evil talisman to test it, and personally contacted and checked it, and then he felt relieved.
The child carefully hid the evil-exorcist talisman in his arms, happily greeted several friends, "Let's go, we're going home!"
After hearing this, several children ran to the village as if they were having fun. Li Xun, Lu Qing and Qian Kui followed the child into Dujia Village.
Dujia Village is not big, with only one long street, and the villagers' houses are distributed on both sides of the long street, and you can see the end of the village at a glance.
But in a blink of an eye, a few people came to the center of the village. A yard that was obviously a little larger appeared in sight. The child stepped forward and kicked open the door and shouted: "Grandpa, grandpa, look at who I brought!"
Seeing this situation, Li Xun, Lu Qing and Qian Kui paused, looked at each other, and heard Qian Kui murmured softly: "No wonder this little guy is the king of children, and his feelings are Muramasa's grandson."
"Ahem..."
A violent cough came from the yard, and Li Xun and the other two heard a hoarse voice: "Puppy, who have you brought? Help grandpa over!"
At this moment, Li Xun and the other two walked to the door and looked into the yard. They saw a hunched figure coming towards the door with the help of the child just now.
When the old man saw Li Xun and the other two, his originally turbid eyes lit up, and his wrinkled face showed a hint of joy. He walked forward a few steps and bowed, "Young old man Du Ming, Dujia Village, have seen several adults in the Night Watch!"
It can be seen that Li Xun and the other two are night watchmen at a glance, and Du Ming has some insight. After all, he can become a village official, and this old man is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Li Xun had a smile on his face, and stepped forward to support the old man and said, "The old village is not polite. What is the so-called thing we are here this time? I think Lao Village should know what it means to come."
While helping the old man up, Li Xun had already used his magic power to test the old man's body and confirmed that the other party was not transformed by evil spirits.
Laocun was worried when he heard this, his face full of wrinkles showed a little sadness. He reached out and patted the head of the child beside him and said, "Puppy, go and play first. Grandpa has something to do with the guest."
The child was obedient and nodded crisply, "Then I'll go find Erdan, Xiaohua and the others!"
Watching the child run out happily, Du Ming coughed violently again, and walked under a big tree in the yard while coughing.
Under the big tree there is a stone table and several stone piers.
After carrying a pot of tea, Du Ming said to Li Xun and the others: "There is nothing to be entertained here, so please forgive me, my elders."
Li Xun did not speak, and Lu Qing sat on the stone pier and said, "Old Village is the main one, we are not here to have tea. Your Dujia Village looks normal!"
Du Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Sir, don't joke. More than a hundred villagers in my Dujia Village can escape this time. It depends on whether you can get rid of the evil spirits that harm people for us!"
A glimmer flashed in Li Xun's eyes and stared at the village master, saying, "Old Village master, let me ask you, where are the constables sent by the county government the day before yesterday, who were sent to inquire yesterday?"
The old village was handing a cup of tea to Li Xun, "My lord also leaked one person. There was another night watchman who entered my Dujia Village the day before yesterday."
Li Xun looked up and stared at Du Ming and said, "Even if you don't mention it, I will ask later. Since that's the case, can Laocun tell you where these people are now?"
Du Ming seemed to have not seen Li Xun's scrutiny gaze and sighed slightly: "If I don't know where these people are? Don't you know if you believe me?"
Lu Qing shouted: "How is this possible? This is Dujia Village. I'm afraid you can walk around the corners of the village with your eyes closed. How is this possible?"
Du Ming looked at Li Xun and the other two and said, "The life and death of Dujia Village is all about you. How dare I hide it at all? In fact, we don't know where those missing people have gone?"
Li Xun suddenly spoke, "Since that's the case, why haven't you sent anyone to Fengchi County Government for help in the past two days?"
Du Ming was a little excited when he heard this. After a sudden cough, he said, "How could he know that I did not send anyone to Fengchi County for help? However, after the villagers sent by Immortal left the village, they suddenly appeared at home that night."
Qian Kui immediately said, "Then ask what the other party encountered and why he appeared at home?"
Du Ming did not speak, and Li Xun said, "If it was exactly what Li expected, the person who returned home would be a corpse."
