Chapter 275: Returning to Mao Jiagou
"Could it be a thief shouting to catch a thief?" Ye Jiannan glanced at the black-robed mage.
"What did you say, you're slandering this mage!" The old man almost stormed out, his gaze icy cold as he stared at Ye Jiannan.
"I didn't say that you were the one who killed someone, okay?" Ye Jiannan sneered, his eyes flickered, seeing the black-robed mage from his head to his feet, and then from his feet to his head, searching for the warlock's similar scent, but all he found was gross.
"You …… patriarch, this person is a demonic person, kill this person as soon as possible, otherwise the God of Death will still come down, and Yingge Society will turn into the general dead land of Mao Jiagou!" The black-robed old man roared treacherously.
"Archmage, he said that they can make the dead speak and investigate the murderer, it only takes three days, might as well we give them three days, if we can't catch the demon, it's not too late for us to kill them!" The patriarch suggested.
Ye Jiannan guessed just from the patriarch's pious tone that this old guy was really not simple ah, actually in the name of the Archmage, he had already taken control of the Yingge Society, however, this old guy targeted them as soon as he appeared, could it be that there was something unseemly going on, or was this person the black hand behind the scenes!
However, right now, whether he is a murderer or not, if he can help himself, he should take advantage of it, so he roared, "Black-robed old devil, after three days, I will definitely find the evidence that you killed and framed Death for the crime!"
"Snort!"
In an instant, almost everyone froze, Ye Jiannan was being unreasonable, right, without evidence, he started biting people.
"You're looking for death right, if you dare to falsely accuse this mage again, I'll kill you!" The black-robed one slightly froze for a moment, then roared.
"Whether it's a false accusation or not, your own heart is clear …… Not only the Yingge Society, those people in the Mao family ditch, you also killed them!" Ye Jiannan was undaunted, staring coldly at the black-robed old man.
"You are talking nonsense with your eyes open, the matter of the Mao family ditch, and this Venerable Master does not have the slightest relationship, five years ago all the villagers here saw it, it was a god of death in the sky that killed them ……" The old man finally couldn't hold back and jumped up and down.
"Mage ……" the patriarch yelled.
The old guy suddenly had an epiphany and shut up urgently, "Patriarch, I ……"
"Well, this is settled, within three days, if you can't catch the real culprit, it's you who are demonizing the public!" The matriarch said in a cold voice.
Ye Jiannan was secretly happy in his heart, more or less knowing a little bit about Mao Jiagou's matter, however, it was even more certain that Mao Jiagou seemed to have really encountered the Heavenly Dao.
The God of Death in their mouths, could it be the Heavenly Dao?
Wait, thinking of this, Ye Jiannan suddenly realized a problem, this happened in Mao Jiagou was five years ago, while the picture he saw from the internet was the latest photo from a year ago, and on that photo, Ye Jiannan saw many human figures, as well as strange monsters in the sky!
In this instant, Ye Jiannan suddenly realized that things had become complicated, the village that had disappeared five years ago was actually taken by the plat mappers three years ago, who had taken pictures with living people!
Thinking about this, Ye Jiannan felt that his head was not enough, moreover, if all the people in Maojiagou were dead, what happened to that ancestral hall, who actually got it up there?
Furthermore, they encountered ghosts that looked like living people, could it be that those ghosts didn't die and were still alive and well, and that they had been tricked?
Thinking of this, Ye Jiannan could only agree to the patriarch's request, following which he brought Xia Mo and Guo Guo, and once again ran towards Mao Jia Gou.
"Jiannan, what on earth did you find, there are all ghosts there!" Xia Mo then followed, but did not understand the purpose of Ye Jiannan's trip.
"Yeah, big brother, you're not going to catch ghosts, are you, so many ghosts, how can you catch them?" Guoguo also looked puzzled.
"One by one, catch them one by one!" Ye Jiannan returned.
But behind them, far away, there was a person mysteriously following them, keeping a distance of about a thousand meters. When they reached the clouds, they closed the distance, however, this place was really strange, Ye Jiannan didn't even realize that someone was following them.
Ye Jiannan three people ran all the way, fast and furious rush at noon, to the Mao family ditch, at this time, they were surprised to find that the Mao family ditch actually has a lot of "living people", but and the walking dead is no difference.
Ye Jiannan now strange, with XiaMo and GuoGuo, rushed into the ancestral hall.
As a result, they were surprised to find that nine out of ten of those who were walking on the streets had rows here, meaning that they were all dead people.
"Jiannan, we'd better leave here as soon as possible, although those living people didn't attack us, but, I think we've come to the wrong place, this isn't where we should be!" Xia Mo was a little timid.
In fact, at this moment, she was far from being the only one who was timid, with Ye Jiannan's calmness, his heart was also starting to beat a drum: "Well, if you want to know what's going on here, there's only one way to go, catch the real culprit!"
At this moment, Ye Jiannan made up his mind, if he couldn't catch the real culprit in Yingge Society, he wouldn't be able to find out what exactly happened here, thinking of this, Ye Jiannan hurriedly took the two of them and left Mao Jiagou.
Before dark, they had returned to Yingge She, the whole Yingge She, was covered by a layer of thick black clouds, as if suggesting that something horrible may happen at any time.
Ye Jiannan returned to the village, began to inquire about the murderer, he first went to the home of the deceased, a detailed understanding of the situation, in fact, the family does not know anything, just know that Erniu went out, where to go, what to do but do not know at all.
Then, Ye Jiannan asked the whole village to cooperate with the investigation, starting from the two cattle left the home, ask everyone to see if anyone saw the two cattle.
In this way, clues were really found, a young man appeared and wrote on a piece of paper with a pen, "I've seen Erniu, he went to the Venerable Master's house!"
"The mage!" The crowd froze, at this moment, the black-robed man, was casting spells, and as a result, he was kidnapped by the patriarch.
"Mage, I can't imagine that the real culprit is really you!" The patriarch had a murderous look on his face, this didn't just happen in the village, even the patriarch's wife died so strangely, so he had the urge to kill the murderer.
"I didn't, Matriarch, I'm a mage, I don't have to kill someone in such a clumsy way, right?" The mage was anxious and was busy defending himself.
Ye Jiannan had been standing on the side watching, and then could not ask for a result, so he could only take the mage into custody.
After waiting for the mage to be taken into custody, Ye Jiannan looked at the lad who had provided the clue: "Can you tell me your name?"
The youngster, however, stood still, not moving a bit.
"He's deaf and dumb, we don't know his name either." The patriarch returned.
"That's not right, you guys don't seem to have outsiders coming in here, right?" Ye Jiannan asked back.
"He is the only one, it was a day five years ago, he was lying at the head of the village, when the villagers found him, he was already about to die , it was us who saved him, because he could paint coffins, so we left him behind!" The patriarch returned.
"He can paint coffins, I want to see his painting level!" Ye Jiannan returned.
"Please come with me, all the big and small coffins on the village were painted by him!" The patriarch said, and brought Ye Jiannan into Erniu's home.
"Nuo, the coffins that the village helped Erniu make were drawn by him!" The patriarch said as he pointed to the coffin that contained the dead.
Ye Jiannan went up and went to look at it carefully, after looking at the coffin, in didn't say anything, but glanced at the mute lad: "It's alright, when the dead return to their deaths in three days, the answer will come out!"
With that, the crowd dispersed.
"Hey, what are you up to?" Xia Mo really didn't understand what Ye Jiannan was trying to do, since the suspect had already been caught, why didn't he interrogate the suspect but went to look at the coffin painted by the deaf mute.
"This matter is not as simple as we think, that black-robed mage, is by no means the murderer!" Ye Jiannan returned.
"I see, you deliberately said that he was the murderer in order to draw out the real culprit!" Xia Mo blinked her eyes and returned.
"More than that, asking the black-robed old man about the Mao Family Gully from his mouth is the first priority, confusing the murderer is only secondary!" Ye Jiannan said, looking at the dense clouds outside the window, his mind was complicated, there were only two days left in the next, whether he could uncover the murderer or not, was still an unknown, although he had already grasped a little bit of clues now.
However, to uncover the murderer, what is needed is evidence, there is no evidence, even if you know the murderer, you can not easily do it, unless you catch a current.
Ye Jiannan closed his eyes, quietly thinking about the whole thing, Xia Mo has been squatting beside him, but did not say anything, until the night was deep, Ye Jiannan's eyebrows moved, and only then twittered, "So what, 'Acacia Ghost Art' you do not intend to cultivate?"
When Ye Jiannan heard this, his soaring thoughts, returned, "Uh …… I ……"
"Don't say it, I know what you are worried about, since the Three-eyed Spirit Monkey is willing to give you that, me, who is your woman, if I don't give a little, isn't it too sorry for you?" Xia Mo smiled back.
"My woman?" Ye Jiannan suddenly widened his eyes, is this confirming the relationship between the two?
"What, don't want to pull back!" Xia Mo rose her mouth and snorted coldly in her mouth.
"Willing, willing ……" Ye Jiannan said, then hugged Xia Mo and nibbled.
"Rascal!" Xia Mo coldly grunted, but did not resist.
But right at this moment, Fruity appeared at the door, swept a glance at the duo, and left with a smile.
This night, as Ye Jiannan thought, the village was safe and sound, the "God of Death" never came to claim his life again, early the next morning, the patriarch gathered the people: "I can't imagine that I have no eyes to see, but I was actually deceived by the mage… …"
"Patriarch, kill him, he is the one who killed my family ……" Immediately, someone in the field shouted.
"Burn him, this demon!"
"Kill him …… Kill him …… Kill him ……" the crowd roared in unison.
"Everyone be quiet, today I am announcing how this matter will be dealt with, since we have already determined that he is the one who killed many of the villagers, we will, today, burn him ……" said the patriarch in a loud voice.
……
Guo Guo saw the patriarch leave in a hurry early in the morning, so he followed him out, and ended up just in time to see the gathering of the Yingge Society, so he hurriedly ran back to the patriarch's home: "Jiannan brother, Jiannan brother …… Something big is wrong …… "
