Chapter 18. Investigation(1/2)
Ghost troupe?
Jiang Yang thought it was impossible, it was still broad daylight!
However, he stared at this village carefully, could it be another place where weird things happened?
He was delighted on the spot.
What kind of luck is this?
He thought about it in his mind, it was not safe outside, and it was rare for him to live in peace for a few days, so he would not run away because of such a weird thing.
It is better to investigate first to find out what the situation is and then make a plan.
He quickly pulled over the boy and asked, "You said these people disappeared last night? Can you tell me in detail?"
The boy in the store explained: "Last night I got up in a daze and went to the hut. I accidentally glanced at it and saw that the stage was empty. The place where they built a shed to sleep was also empty. There was no one."
"Do you think this big living person disappeared out of thin air?"
Jiang Yang's eyes darkened.
Speaking of which, I have been busy practicing my sword these past few days and have not paid much attention to the situation in the village. There may be something fishy here.
He quickly asked again: "Approximately when did it happen?"
"Last night at midnight? Chou hour?" The boy thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I can't remember that clearly."
Jiang Yang looked thoughtful, nodded, paid the money, and went out.
After leaving the tavern, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the stage not far away: How about going over to explore the situation?
At the same time, a line of blue text appeared in front of his eyes again.
Get the mission: Strange Troupe
You heard some weird rumors about this troupe and decided to investigate it yourself.
Have a mission?
Jiang Yang's heart moved. Could it be that he discovered a hidden mission in the village?
After all, this is not something that can be easily triggered like martial arts.
Moreover, looking at the description of this task, it is obviously much more advanced than "Discussing Martial Arts", and I don't know if this task also has levels.
This really made Jiang Yang's mind active, and he didn't know what rewards this task would bring to him.
…
He happily walked quickly towards the stage. Although it was daytime and most of the villagers had gone out to work, there were also some women, old people and children gathered around the stage.
At this time, a female performer was singing on the stage. Jiang Yang couldn't understand what he was singing. He could only listen to the comments from people around him. It seemed to be a famous local song.
Jiang Yang did not watch the show with them in front of the stage. He rolled his eyes and turned to the back of the stage.
"Brother, what's the matter?" At this moment, Jiang Yang saw the martial arts student from before, came out from the backstage, and happened to bump into him.
Jiang Yang took a look at the martial artist. He was tall and strong, and now he took off his costume, revealing a short black coat.
Jiang Yang, however, was calm and asked with a bit of curiosity: "I heard that in your troupe, you can do what other troupes can do, and can you also do what other troupes can't do?"
Hearing this, Wu Sheng suddenly grinned: "That's easy to say."
Jiang Yang was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly came up to him. He looked at him suspiciously and said, "I have seen a few good plays in the city before, but I never saw them again. I don't know if you will be there."
"A good show?" Wu Sheng was stunned.
Then he sneered and said confidently: "Since the city can do it, there is nothing we can't do."
"Which play is it?"
"What's it called..." Jiang Yang thought for a while and said, "Guan Erye rides a bicycle thousands of miles, and Lin Daiyu uproots a weeping willow. Can you sing it?"
???
Wu Sheng was stunned on the spot.
After a while, he stared at Jiang Yang suspiciously and said, "Is there such a show?"
"Yes." Jiang Yang met the other party's gaze, but his expression remained unchanged, and he said clearly, "How about I tell you?"
"..."
And at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Ma Long, hurry up, it's your turn to wait for a while!"
"Here we come!" the man responded and said hurriedly, "Brother, if you need anything, just ask our class leader. I'll be on stage later."
"Team leader?"
He pointed at the short, stocky middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples, and then hurried away.
I wiped it, Jiang Yang was a little depressed, and wanted to use a condom to see if he could get anything out of it.
Jiang Yang looked in the direction of his finger and saw the short, stocky middle-aged man chatting with an old man dressed as a housekeeper.
As he walked forward, the two of them dispersed and didn't hear anything.
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It seemed that it wasn't that easy to find out something.
However, I heard from the waiter before that they probably disappeared around midnight. Why don't we find another chance to take a look at night?
He took a deep breath, and it looked like he could only wait until night to take a look.
After all, I just heard a rumor, and I don't know the specific situation. After all, night is a time when I can get clues, which may be more useful.
Then we might as well take the opportunity to see what happened when the boy disappeared in the middle of the night.
Now that I have time, I can make more preparations. There is still a lot of room for improvement in my martial arts.
With this thought in his mind, he simply continued practicing his sword aside.
After practicing for a whole day, Jiang Yang became familiar with the techniques for fighting multiple enemies. However, against a single powerful enemy, he had only seen one or two moves from the female ghost. Although he had experience, it was not comprehensive.
At this time he took a look at the progress.
Danyang Sword Technique(1084/1496)
Jiang Yang was amazed in his heart. This was much faster than practicing hard. However, he was extremely familiar with his current opponent. If he continued, his improvement in efficiency would obviously slow down.
It seems that we have to find some new opponents tomorrow.
This kind of thing is just one word, liver!
What is the Liver Emperor?
His heart moved. He had been in this world for several days, and he didn't know what happened to the other spirit holders.
This village is probably a little out of the way, but I haven't met any other spirit-supporters yet, and I don't know if I will meet them in the future.
But I'm not in a hurry, my skills are still low now, and I've only learned one swordsmanship, but the formula is still incomplete.
Let’s talk about development first.
…
The rays of the setting sun reflected on the tree-lined paths of the village, leaving only a few orange-red stars.
After practicing the sword for a whole day under the big mulberry tree, Jiang Yang felt that he was almost done.
He put away the mahogany sword and walked towards the Wu family. He passed by the opera troupe on the way. At this time, he saw the opera singer Wu Sheng trying out several tricks on the stage, which immediately caused a burst of applause from the people around him.
There were many children and other things around, including many people from the Yan family.
In the evening, all the workers came back, and the square became more and more lively.
At this moment, he saw a group of children surrounding a young boy of about twelve or thirteen years old, who was narrating something in an exaggerated manner.
Just as Jiang Yang looked over, the other party also turned his head.
"Young Master, that's him!" Chen Caisang said immediately.
Young Master?
Hearing this title, Jiang Yang was also slightly stunned.
In this Youshui Village, there is probably only one person who can be called young master, right?
I heard Foreman Wu say that the Yan family has a master, Miss Yan and a young master. Could it be that one?
He looked at the young man in front of him again. The young man's appearance was indeed a bit rich, so it looked like he was right.
And just as Jiang Yang was sizing up the other party, the other party's eyes also fell on Jiang Yang.
"I heard from my sister before that it was you who saved Uncle Wu and the others, and also suppressed the ghosts at Lingwei Temple?" The young man in front of him narrowed his eyes slightly, looking pretentious, "Today I heard from Cai Sang again about your swordsmanship.
have to?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Jiang Yang was a little confused. What does this little guy mean?
Could it be that he wanted to help Chen Caisang find a place?
The little boy raised his lips slightly: "How about you come and have a few tricks with me?"
Jiang Yang was stunned when he heard this.
To be continued...
