One Task Per Week, Starting From The Goddess Of Flash Marriage
Chapter 159 The Unsolvable Mystery
Yang Yuyan immediately understood Lu Sheng's intention.
If the Demon King had just witnessed the death of the scholar, it meant that the Demon King was among the young people in front of him.
Yang Yuyan's eyes quickly swept over the faces of these young people.
Then in the communication column, he opened a chat group and asked:
"Do you have any suspicion in mind?"
While listening to the introduction of village chief Gao Shan, Lu Sheng swept the titles over the heads of these young people.
Most of them are:
[A sad brother who lost his sister]
Only two people are slightly different.
One is a high hero, and the title above his head is:
[A queen from a famous family who hates the devil to the core]
He then clicked on the entry attributes of [Queen of a Famous Family]:
[Title entry: Queen of a famous family]
[Attribute details: My father was originally an officer in the East China Sea Navy of the Tianhe Guards, thus inheriting good fighting talents. Courage +50%, combat effectiveness +50%]
He is also a descendant of the Tianhe Guardsmen?
The other one is Gao Junjie, and the title above his head is:
[A neighbor brother who loves Gao Xiaolan deeply]
Lu Sheng had guessed that Gao Junjie loved Gao Xiaolan deeply when the village chief Gao Shan introduced him as Gao Xiaolan's childhood sweetheart.
Although the two titles in front of me are obviously different from the titles above other people's heads.
But based on the content of the title alone, it is completely impossible to determine who will be the incarnation of the Demon King.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Sheng replied in the group:
"According to my previous experience in playing games, I suspect it is one of Gao Yingxiong and Gao Junjie."
"Because the background information of the two people is richer and more detailed than the others, and it is more closely aligned with the plot of the dungeon. This is a sign that subsequent mission arrangements will be triggered."
Yang Yuyan replied with a "hmm" expression in agreement, but then added:
"Village Chief Gao Shan and Deputy Village Chief Gao Jincai also deserve attention."
"On the one hand, the timing of their appearance is very clever. It is difficult to determine whether they were really not present when the demon just killed the scholar."
"On the other hand, this Gao Jincai once served in the Tianhe Guards, and he seems to be related to the old captain that the devil just mentioned."
Lu Sheng then looked over the heads of village chief Gao Shan and deputy village chief Gao Jincai.
Judging from the title alone, there is still nothing special about it:
[A village chief who cares about his granddaughter]
[A worried deputy village chief]
Zhu Jiuzhou specifically glanced at Gao Yingxiong and the other four:
"But there is a deep hatred between the four of them and the devil. How could they be the incarnation of the devil?"
Yang Yuyan quickly replied:
"The incarnation of the Demon King probably doesn't know his identity yet."
"Furthermore, we experienced a similar dungeon mission a few years ago. The final boss appeared in an NPC next to us. It was a huge twist."
"So these four people just mentioned, we all need to focus on."
Linglong immediately responded with an OK expression.
At this time, the village chief had introduced all the young people present, and then looked at Lu Sheng and the others and asked:
"Investigators, all the young people have been introduced. Is there anything else you want to know?"
Lu Sheng nodded and suddenly asked:
"Have you seen any unusual things or animals in the half hour between 5:30 and 6 o'clock this afternoon?"
All the young people fell into thinking.
Gao Yingxiong said in a depressed mood:
"The half hour between 5:30 and 6 o'clock should be exactly the time when the devil attacks the village."
"In that half hour, I kept looking for my sister, but I didn't seem to see anything unusual."
Suddenly he seemed to remember something, frowned and said:
"Speaking of which, I seem to have seen mice eating during a heavy rainstorm."
Gao Yingxiong's words were immediately echoed by the other young people.
Gao Yingjie nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, we seem to have seen rats too, but that was before the heavy rain came."
"Then a heavy rain came and the village radio said there might be a demon, so we all hid back home."
Yang Yuyan and Zhu Jiuzhou looked at each other:
"Speaking of which, it seems that we also saw rats gnawing on the carcasses of other animals during the heavy rain."
Lu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes:
Do rats eat dead animals?
The picture of a mouse biting a dead cat at the corner of the village quickly appeared in his mind.
My heart couldn't help but move slightly:
Could it be that the devil's apostle is actually a rat?
At this time, village chief Gao Shan saw that everyone was still discussing the rat matter and asked anxiously:
"Let me tell you, investigators from the sky, it's almost 7 o'clock now, where should we go to rescue those girls who have been arrested?"
Lu Sheng comforted Gao Shan:
"According to what the devil just said, the missing girl will not be in danger for the time being before the devil comes at 12 midnight."
While taking out the [Angel Prophecy Book], he asked on it:
[Where should we go to find the missing girl now]
[Angel Prophecy] Now his mood was much more stable, and he answered concisely:
[South of Gaojia Village, a huge waterfall climbing to the sky, in front of the gate of life and death]
Lu Sheng turned to look at Gaoshan:
"Where is the giant waterfall that climbs to the sky?"
Gao Shan immediately pointed to a towering mountain peak southwest of Gaojia Village and said:
"Have you seen the Milky Way in the distance? That is the giant waterfall that climbs to the sky, our mother waterfall. All the water sources in Gaojia Village come from the springs on this mountain."
"It takes about 45 minutes to drive from this barren mountain."
Lu Sheng nodded slightly and then asked:
"Where is the door of life and death?"
This time Gao Shan looked back at Gao Jincai in surprise, and then at the other teenagers.
Everyone looked confused.
So he turned around and said to Lu Sheng:
"I have lived here for decades, and I have never heard of any life-and-death gate on the giant waterfall."
Lu Sheng scratched his head in distress:
It seems that this door of life and death is probably a mystery waiting for everyone to solve.
Seeing that it was already getting late, Lu Sheng turned to look at everyone and discussed:
"Village Chief, please take someone back to look through the "Village Chronicle" first to see if there are any clues related to the seven girls."
"We immediately went to the Sky-Climbing Giant Waterfall to look for the Gate of Life and Death and the kidnapped girl."
The village chief nodded first, then looked at the anxious young people behind him and said:
"Investigator, can you please discuss something? These children have lost their sisters at home and want to help. Can you bring them all with you?"
Lu Sheng was worried that he would encounter an accident on the giant waterfall and cause these people to lose their lives in vain.
At that moment, he politely declined the village chief's kindness.
The village chief nodded in understanding, but still said:
"In that case, there is no need to bring the others with you, but please be sure to bring these two with you, because they have a reason to kill the demon."
The two people the village chief mentioned were Gao Yingxiong and Gao Junjie.
Lu Sheng's thoughts moved slightly, and when he was about to say yes, he heard Yang Yuyan say first:
"Okay, then take them with you. They can just be our guides."
Of course Lu Sheng understood Yang Yuyan's thoughts.
Because their main mission is to find the devil's incarnation in Gaojiacun one step ahead of time and prevent him from transforming into a devil.
Under such a mission goal, it is naturally the safest way to take these two people with you.
After the grouping was completed, everyone immediately split up and went down the mountain, heading towards the sky-climbing waterfall.
There are less than 5 hours left before midnight, but there are still many mysteries lingering in the minds of Lu Sheng and others:
Why were seven girls taken away?
What is the "Gateway of Life and Death"?
What is the devil's apostle?
And, who is the incarnation of the Demon King?
At this time, the [Devil's Prophecy Book] in Lu Sheng's toolbar actually shook again.
This time the prophecy shown above is:
[Before the devil comes, he will bathe in pure water on the top of the mountain to wait for the right time]
