Qin Shaoyou used the [Bright Eyes] talent to carefully observe the tiger's micro-expressions.
"Do you know the demons who besieged and killed the night watchmen? Are they in the same group as you?"
The tiger said with a bitter look on his face: "I don't dare to get close, so how would I know who the monsters are that surround and kill the night watchman?"
Qin Shaoyou saw that he didn't seem to be lying, so he asked again: "Did the monk who summoned you mention this group of night watchmen?"
"No." Tiger shook his head, "He just asked us to ambush the people passing by. He didn't mention anything else."
"You didn't even mention the characteristics of the target?" Qin Shaoyou frowned and asked.
"No."
"Then you are not afraid of killing the wrong person?"
"Don't be afraid, there are not many people who dare to walk at night now, and from the beginning, we planned to kill and eat everyone who passed by the ambush site that night."
Qin Shaoyou raised his eyebrows and asked again: "Has that monk come to see you after you escaped?"
"No." Tiger shook his head.
Qin Shaoyou then asked a few more questions, and Tiger always acted very cooperatively, answering whatever he asked.
During the entire question-and-answer process, Qin Shaoyou used his [Bright Eyes] talent to observe the tiger in order to guess whether his answer was true or false.
At the same time, Qin Shaoyou also used the interrogation skills he learned in the Demon Suppression Department. During the cross-examination, he would suddenly ask a question that he had asked before to see if the tiger's answers would be different.
He would even trick the tiger out of nowhere to see his reaction.
In the end, Qin Shaoyou judged that the tiger most likely did not lie.
"There is indeed a secret behind the annihilation of more than a hundred people from the Demon Division in Luocheng Town!"
Qin Shaoyou squinted his eyes and thought in his heart.
Through Tiger's answers, he understood some of the situation, but also had new questions:
For example, who is the mysterious monk? Who is the person he wants to kill? Why he wants to kill, etc.
Another example is that the night watchman of the Demon Division in Luocheng Town appeared near the ambush point. Is it a coincidence, or was he lured there artificially?
If they were led there, did the person who led them there want them to save the people who were ambushed, or did they want them to participate in the ambush?
And what role does that mysterious nobleman play in this matter? Which side is he on?
While Qin Shaoyou was sorting out clues and sorting out questions, the tiger was also looking at him.
Seeing that he had no intention of continuing the cross-examination, Tiger said cautiously: "I have answered all the questions you asked, so you should fulfill your promise and let me go, right?"
"Don't worry, I have a few more questions."
Qin Shaoyou retracted his thoughts, looked at the tiger and smiled.
The tiger's smile made his hair stand on end: "What else do you want to ask?"
Qin Shaoyou said: "I saw the statue of the Earth God they enshrined in the Earth Temple in Gumiao Village. Why does the human form you change look like that statue?"
"Because I am the land god." Tiger said.
"After I opened my spiritual consciousness, I went to the earth temple and practiced by swallowing incense. At that time, in order to get more incense, I turned myself into the appearance of the earth god, and satisfied the villagers' needs through spiritual manifestations.
Wishes to let them offer more incense."
Qin Shaoyou then asked: "Then why didn't you continue later, but instead collected the rent and started eating people?"
"Because I later discovered that swallowing human yang energy, eating human flesh and soul, is not only easier than obtaining incense as an offering, it is also more delicious and easier to increase strength! Especially for boys and girls, the taste and effect are as long as you have eaten them
Once, I will definitely think about it a second time, a third time..."
When the tiger said this, he couldn't help but show an expression of aftertaste, completely unaware of the murderous intention flashing in Qin Shaoyou's eyes.
"Okay, I understand." Qin Shaoyou nodded, "I have no other questions."
As he spoke, he pulled out the knives, daggers and other objects that were nailed to the tiger's limbs one by one.
"Let's go, I'll take you on your way."
Although the tiger's limbs were injured and it was difficult to exert strength, he still tried his best to get up and was about to escape outside the cave.
Qin Shaoyou waited for him to take two steps, then suddenly took out his knife. When he raised the knife, he cut off his head. He also took a few empty bowls and pots next to him in time to catch the blood spurting out of his neck.
.
The tiger's head turned in a circle in mid-air, but he was still conscious after landing, accusing Qin Shaoyou of being dishonest: "You said... let me go..."
Qin Shaoyou strode forward, stepped on the tiger's head, and penetrated him with a knife.
"I did let you go. You've already taken two steps away...but I just promised to let you go, and I didn't promise not to kill you."
The tiger will die with his eyes closed.
But its body collapsed to the ground after its head was pierced by a long knife.
At the same time, a new page of content opened up in the mysterious recipe in Qin Shaoyou's mind.
Name of dish: braised tiger wings
Ingredients: The wings of meat-winged tigers are used as the main ingredient, supplemented with ginger slices, green onion slices, star anise and other raw materials...
Method: First add the ingredients and cook the tiger wings, remove them and drain them, then fry them in an oil pan until golden brown, then mix the soy sauce, sugar, cooking wine and other seasonings, pour the sauce evenly, add a little water if necessary, and simmer for half a quarter of an hour...
…
Effect: After consuming it for practice, you can enter a state of even greater strength, greatly improving the effect of practice. It can also increase your strength to a certain extent.
"After eating and cultivating, can you gain even more powerful effects?"
Qin Shaoyou's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this introduction in the recipe.
What he wants to do most now is to improve his strength as soon as possible.
This braised tiger wing, which can enhance the effect of cultivation, comes at the right time.
After the tiger died, the battle in the cave also came to an end.
The night watchmen began to clean the battlefield, collecting demon flesh, demon blood, and other trophies.
Su Tingyu was not interested in these things. She went straight to the tiger's body and said to Mr. Qin: "This is a very good material."
"It's indeed very good." Qin Shaoyou nodded, and then said with a defensive look: "I can't give you these wings, but I can give you some of the other parts."
Although at first, he mistakenly thought that Su Tingyu liked to eat monsters and ghosts just like him.
But after two days of getting along, he already knew that Su Tingyu liked experimenting with ghosts, not eating them.
This girl is an experimental fiend!
Su Tingyu also figured out that Qin Shaoyou was interested in demons and ghosts, not because he liked to experiment with demons and ghosts like himself, but because he wanted to eat demons and ghosts to improve his strength.
This guy is a loser!
So both of them felt that the other was a waste and did not understand the correct use of demons.
Hearing Qin Shaoyou's words at this moment, Su Tingyu couldn't help but frown.
She really wanted to take the tiger's wings back for experiments. After all, three-legged tigers are common, but there are not many tigers with wings.
But she didn't argue. After all, Qin Shaoyou did the most to kill the tiger.
She settled for the next best thing: "Then I want the tiger's heart and a piece of its fur."
"Why do you want tiger skin? To make a leather jacket or leather trousers?" Qin Shaoyou asked casually.
Su Tingyu rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "It's summer now, so you can't cover up prickly heat when you wear that thing? After being made into an amulet, the fur of the meat-winged tiger has the effect of warding off ghosts. I want to study it."
Let’s look at the principle behind it.”
"oh?"
Qin Shaoyou heard that the fur of flesh-winged tigers could be made into amulets to ward off ghosts, and he immediately became interested.
"Xiao Taoist Priest Su, can you use the fur of the meat-winged tiger to make amulets? Can you make a few for me?"
He didn't want to use it for himself.
Now he wants to be haunted by ghosts every day, and there are so many ingredients and recipes, how can he wear such a thing on his body?
Of course, this dream also has conditions, that is, the ghost who comes must be able to win.
Qin Shaoyou wants amulets, mainly for his parents and several sisters, so that they can have some means of protection.
"Of course." Su Tingyu agreed readily: "But you have to give me two tiger bones."
"No problem." Qin Shaoyou was also very happy, "You make a few more for me, and I will give you a pot of tiger blood."
"make a deal!"
The two high-fived each other, both satisfied with the deal.
The battlefield was quickly cleaned up, and everyone left the cave carrying the collected loot.
On the way back to Gumiao Village, Qin Shaoyou told everyone: "We will leave as soon as daybreak. Don't tell the villagers about killing the tiger."
"Why is this?"
Except for Zhu Xiucai, everyone was stunned and confused.
