Ren Pingsheng called out to Mudan, who had returned from the backyard. Mudan winked at him, and he understood and felt a little relieved.
"Mayor Ren, I am Si Nian, the general bannerman of Xiaolong Division Wuzhou Town Guards."
Si Nian picked up the tea cup and introduced himself.
Ren Pingsheng had relaxed a lot at this time. At least in terms of attitude and tone, the other party didn't seem to be looking for trouble.
"Mayor Ren, I am waiting for this trip because of that pig demon. We got news that the caravan of Qixing Company in Qingcheng Town hunted a pig demon in Quanshan. Is it true?"
Si Nian, who has the crisp and clear character of a soldier, asked straight to the point.
"good."
Ren Pingsheng remained calm, but his heart was filled with fear.
When Ren Pingsheng said this, he was a little bit stubborn.
As she spoke, she took out a jade box and took out a soybean-sized bead with this earthy yellow luster on it.
She hesitated for a moment, answered the question, and then asked again.
If Si Nian sent someone to ask at this time, it would be easy to find out.
Among us humans, there are some people who have the talent to become aliens. However, the imperial court has specially conducted tests using the sampling method. There are very few people with the talent. It is difficult to find a few people in a county.
Ren Pingsheng replied: "The corpse is already smelly. After the cook dissected it, he threw away the carrion, but there are still some bones left."
Ren Pingsheng quickly summarized the key points in his mind.
Seeing that Si Nian was very talkative, Ren Pingsheng immediately continued to ask in a tactful way: "However, this pig demon can control water, and its flesh and skin are also invulnerable. If there hadn't been some capable people in the caravan at that time, no one would have been able to escape.
Moreover, there were quite a few people who had seen Demon Pill yesterday, including the cook, Lu Junyi, Shaoyao...if I just think about it, there were seven or eight of them.
"Master Si, I don't know this bead..."
It would be very difficult to rely solely on joint prevention and protection by villagers.
But I didn't expect that Xiaolongsi would be so powerful!
Lu Junyi was covered with black cloth all the way, and the process of pulling the pig demon back was also kept secret.
"This is?"
However, what Ren Pingsheng did not expect was that Si Nian did not dwell on this, but nodded: "The pig demon can be killed by mortals. It should be that he became a demon soon and died for more than ten days. The rice-sized demon
The pill has dissipated between heaven and earth, which is normal."
But this is too expensive, and there are not that many officers and soldiers to protect every village and town.
However, Mayor Ren should not worry about this. Most of the monsters appear in the deep mountains and old forests. Although Qingcheng Town is close to the Quanshan Mountains, monsters generally do not come down the mountain. I will not encounter them in Xiaolong Division for a year.
Several times of evil news, not to mention the place."
Regarding monsters and aliens, these actually touched upon his blind spots in knowledge. He didn't even know how to answer these questions.
The intelligence capabilities of Xiaolongsi are also too terrifying.
You haven’t seen it?”
Ren Pingsheng asked heartbrokenly.
Si Nian thought that Ren Pingsheng wanted to see the demon pill, so he handed it over without much thought: "Speaking of which, this demon pill is also a very precious good thing.
I wonder if Si Zongqi can tell you some basic knowledge about monsters and give us some local methods to deal with them."
"No, yesterday, the chef in the house dissected the pig demon very carefully, but no beads were seen."
"This is... you are the mayor and regiment coach of Qingcheng Town, and you are also an official, so it doesn't hurt to tell you. This is the demon elixir in the body of the monster, and some people call it a rosary.
"Mayor Ren, you can relax. The world has changed, but in just eight years, whether it is monsters or strangers - that is, people with supernatural powers, they have not appeared for a long time, and they have not shown much threat. Moreover, the court
There are Xiaolongsi to cut off the monsters, and there are very few monsters that can break into the people, and they will not disturb the human world in a short period of time."
Si Nian asked.
First, after the death of a monster, the demon elixir will dissipate. But looking at the jade box that Si Nian took out, it should have the function of preserving the demon elixir.
Third, monsters basically appear in deep mountains and old forests, and are rarely seen in the outside world.
But the pig demon's demon elixir has disappeared. If you answer yes, it may cause a lot of trouble. Denying it to death is probably the best, at least there will be more room for maneuver.
Si Nian shook his head: "These monsters are just like strangers, with different abilities. However, most of the abilities awakened by monsters are aggressive and cannot be dealt with by ordinary people. Anyone who becomes a monster is like a rabbit."
The monster can also be beaten and the gray wolf flees.
Si Nian explained.
He originally thought that the imperial court was at the end of its power, that government orders could no longer be issued from the capital, that the local area was about to be in chaos, and that he had acted without any scruples.
When Si Nian heard this, she had a good impression of Ren Shengsheng, and a look of admiration flashed in her eyes. It was obvious that she had a good impression of this good official who cared about the people.
Ren Pingsheng asked pretending to be curious.
"Si Zongqi, can you tell me about this monster? Ever since I saw the monster, I have always felt a little uneasy. Living corpses outside the city are already a headache. If this monster also comes out to harm the people, then this city
How can ordinary people survive? How can we produce this food? How many people can survive in this world without food?"
Si Nian nodded: "Can such beads be found in the pig demon's body?"
Second, monsters will basically be killed by firearms, except for rough-skinned and fleshy animals that become monsters.
Unexpectedly, just the day after the pig demon came back, people from Xiaolong Division had already come to the door!
No matter which point it is, the situation at this time is definitely not a good thing for Ren Pingsheng!
"I wonder where the corpse of this pig monster is?"
I just don't know if there is a rumor in the town government, or if Lu Junyi leaked information along the way, or if Xiaolongsi has some extraordinary intelligence gathering ability.
This at least points out a direction for Ren's life-long search for monsters.
Si Nian simply said some common sense and didn't want to talk about monsters anymore.
However... it is not that there are no countermeasures. If these monsters are faced with well-trained soldiers with strong bows and crossbows, guns and knives in hand, and armor, they can be hunted to death. Faced with this, they can be hunted and killed.
As for the flintlock gun, it can usually deal with rough-skinned and fleshy monsters such as wild boars, wolves, and bears.
Ren Pingsheng saw the other party put the demon pill back into the jade box, and wanted to ask about the function of the demon pill, but he was worried that the other party would doubt him, so half of the words came to his mouth and he swallowed the rest.
Among them, those who can awaken on their own are even rarer! They are called innate awakeners.
This demon pill is like a weapon that unlocks human talents. Those who have talents but have not been able to awaken on their own can be stimulated and guided to awaken their own abilities if they encounter a demon pill with the same zodiac sign.
·····
Huh?"
Si Nian, who was talking, suddenly noticed that the demon pill in Ren Pingsheng's hand had a burning halo that flickered several times.
