212 Chasing the Poppy

Simple face, very young, very quiet...

When these three words were combined together, Tang Hao knew that it was definitely not Yu Ji.

First of all, the face is simple. Although Yu Ji’s status and reputation in history are not as good as those of the four traditional beauties such as Xi Shi and Diao Chan, she is still a beauty handed down from generation to generation, and there is also a title like Poppy that is specifically used to refer to her. , it is not an exaggeration to say that he has conquered the country and conquered the city, but it is completely different from the simplicity of his face.

Secondly, she is very young... In the book, Yu Ji mentioned that she had watched the development of human beings when they were still knocking stones. In other words, her birth can be traced back to the Stone Age at least. In this way, even if A certain beautiful girl with two guns had to be called Grandma Mustard, and only a certain fox who guarded the tomb of the Yellow Emperor could compete with Yu Ji to see who was bigger, so it was nonsense to say that she was young.

As for being very quiet, I am already a grumpy old lady. How can I be so quiet?

Of course, if you pronounce these words backwards...

Yu Ji is a true ancestor and will not age. At least she does look very young in appearance, and she has a bad relationship with humans. Naturally, she cannot be too ostentatious when walking around in front of others, so it is normal to dress herself plainly, and Before her true nature was revealed, Grandma Yu, disguised as A mustard, was indeed a quiet literary girl.

Therefore, Mei Shan’s testimony cannot be wrong.

Moreover, the black robe and red hem are very suitable for the Yu Ji in his impression. Although there is no guarantee that others will not wear similar clothes, maybe the true ancestors of China like this outfit?

"Hmm..." Tang Hao thought for a while, but he couldn't immediately confirm that the vampire in Meishan Pass was Yu Ji, so he asked him to take him to see the body first.

Soon, Meishan brought Tang Hao to an ancestral hall.

Tang Hao first checked the five members of the family who were killed initially. There were old and young, the youngest was a child under ten years old. Everyone had their blood sucked dry and turned into mummies. They might have been alive during the process of sucking blood. He suffered so much pain that his face looked very hideous.

"It does seem like it was done by a vampire." Tang Hao nodded, but other than that, there was no other discovery. He asked Yakumo Murasaki and others through the video, but it was difficult to tell anything through the video.

Later, Meishan led him to the killed warlocks.

"Hey, what is this?"

As soon as Meishan opened the straw curtain, Tang Hao couldn't help but frown, and some girls in the chat room even turned off the video directly.

Compared with the five mummies before, the ten people in front of me looked more miserable. Although they still maintained a complete human form, their bodies seemed to have been injured by countless sharp weapons. They looked riddled with holes, and there were several , the face was stabbed to pieces, the method was quite cruel.

"Wait! Didn't you mean eleven warlocks? Why are there only ten corpses here?" Tang Hao asked.

"Sir, the last one is here." Mei Shan pointed to the corner of the straw mat. Tang Hao took a look and saw a pair of shoes and two soles of feet wearing the shoes... The owner of these shoes is like It was because all the body parts above the ankles were gone, leading to it looking like this.

"Hey, okay, okay..." Tang Hao pinched his nose and walked out. He was not a forensic doctor, and he felt like vomiting if he continued reading.

Meishan was obviously feeling a little uncomfortable. He covered the straw curtain and hurriedly followed him, and sighed: "Among the corpses of these warlocks, there is no such thing as that of the old Taoist priest. If I guess correctly, the owner of those shoes is the old Taoist priest." , Alas... It's pitiful that these experts hunted vampires for our village, but they ended up like this. That vampire is really crazy and unforgivable. Please ask Sir Lang Zhongling to uphold justice for us."

"Who told you that these warlocks were killed by vampires?"

"Eh?"

At this moment, he was already some distance away from the ancestral hall where the corpse was buried. Tang Hao was finally able to let go of his hand holding his nose and take a breath of fresh air. At the same time, he glanced at Mei Shan and said, "It doesn't matter whether the woman you saw is a vampire or not, but The way the warlocks died was obviously different from that of the family of five, who were sucked into humans by vampires and fucked by humans. If the warlocks were hunting vampires, why didn't they turn into humans and fuck them?"

"This...maybe the vampire has accomplices?"

So the IQ of ancient civilians...

Tang Hao sighed, "For vampires, we humans are food. That family of five is the best evidence. If these warlocks were also killed by vampires, would you still see such fresh corpses? To put it another way, you Will you throw your family’s food into the wilderness and abandon it?”

"Of course not!" Mei Shan shook his head immediately. For ordinary people in this era, nothing is more important than food.

"It's over now." Tang Hao spread his hands, "So the death of the warlocks and the death of the family of five were caused by two different people."

"Sir, what do you mean...that woman is not a vampire?"

"I didn't say that, but you seem to think that woman is a vampire. Do you have any evidence?"

"This..." Meishan thought for a moment, and then replied, "Although no one saw with their own eyes that she killed a family of five, the woman suddenly came to Meijia Village to stay overnight, and this happened that night, and for the first time She hurriedly wanted to leave early the next morning. It was the old Taoist priest who stopped her and said that she had an ominous aura, and we did see that she had two pairs of fangs in her mouth, which happened to be the same as that family. The five wounds are consistent. Look, sir, this..."

"Isn't there just no evidence at all?" Tang Hao shrugged, "Conan has told us a long time ago that after a murder occurs, the person who looks most like the murderer is definitely not the murderer."

"Who is Conan?"

"You don't need to know this. Anyway, there are two questions at the moment. The first is vampires. Are there any cases of being sucked into mummies in the village in the past two days?"

"Not anymore."

"Either the vampire has left, or it is full and lurking. No matter which one, we have nothing to do with it for the time being. So..."

Later, Tang Hao took out a pen and paper from his collection, gathered his power, and drew a few talismans.

"The stars you drew are much uglier than those drawn by Sanae." Murasaki Yakumo complained on the voice channel.

It doesn’t matter whether it looks ugly or good-looking, as long as it is practical.

Tang Hao cursed in his heart, and then handed these talismans to Mei Shan, "You put these talisman papers at the entrance and end of the village. If a vampire comes in from the outside, they will give a warning. If the vampire is still in the village, it can also play a suppressive role. You can also prepare two of them yourself, and then send more patrols in the past few days to avoid any further accidents."

"Yes, thank you sir."

Meishan thanked him respectfully. When he took the talisman, his hands shook slightly and he quickly put it away.

"Do you plan to rest in the village now, or return to the palace to resume your life?"

"The vampire issue has not been resolved yet. How can I go back? But now I am more interested in that woman. Even if she is not a vampire, she should know about vampires. Is there any way you can find her?"

"There's nothing I can do about it, but those warlocks chased the woman. Later, their bodies were found in the forest by Zhao DaDang, the hunter in the village. If adults can catch up in time, the woman should still be in the forest. You can let Zhao DaDang do it. You lead the way." Meishan said.

"Oh, that's okay."

Tang Hao nodded.

Zhao DaDang deserves to be called Zhao DaDang. He is tall, strong, and very courageous. When Mei Shan suggested that he lead the way for Tang Hao, he agreed without saying a word.

"Sir, do you need to bring some strong men?" Mei Shan was a little worried when he learned that Tang Hao planned to go alone.

"No need, there are specialties in the art, I can do this kind of thing alone... let's go." Tang Hao waved his hand and asked Zhao DaDa to lead the way.

"I wish you a safe journey, sir." Mei Shan bowed and saluted. It wasn't until Tang Hao had walked a long way that he slowly raised his head, with some cold sweat covering his forehead.

…

"Sir, I discovered the bodies of those warlocks here the day before yesterday."

Tang Hao set out from Meijia Village in the afternoon, and now it was the morning of the next day. Looking along Zhao Dadan's fingers, he found that the grassland was completely dyed aunt's red color, and some blood clots had coagulated. , looks quite scary.

"According to Mei Shan, the warlocks went deep here to hunt down the woman, so they were probably killed by the woman... Judging from your experience, which direction would the woman run after killing someone? ?”

Tang Hao boldly asked Zhao. Along the way, he found that the hunter was very experienced in things in the forest. Asking him was not considered blind.

Zhao boldly searched around for a while, and soon found a few bloody footprints in a certain direction, and said: "Sir, if I guess correctly, the woman should have entered the depths of the forest."

"Are you sure you're a woman?"

Zhao boldly smiled and said, "Sir, even though I am not married, I can still tell the difference between a man's and a woman's footprints. This bloody footprint is a bit smaller, at least it doesn't look like a man's."

"Oh, that makes sense." Tang Hao nodded, and then said, "That's it. The road ahead may be a little dangerous, so you don't have to accompany me."

Regardless of whether the woman is Yu Ji or not, it is more convenient for Tang Hao to act alone.

Zhao DaDa was stunned, but he didn't say much. He probably didn't want to be associated with such a cruel woman, so he left quickly.

Tang Hao looked at his leaving figure, then looked away after a few seconds, and followed the bloody footprints toward the depths of the forest.

Although the bloody footprints will soon be invisible, Tang Hao will not lose his sense of direction because of this. He doesn't know how long it took, but suddenly, the surrounding atmosphere gradually became strange.

"Humans, why don't you give up? Do you really want to kill me?"

A suppressed angry voice reached Tang Hao's ears.
