Homecoming through online games
Chapter 41 Tooth Marks
=====================
Saying goodbye to Huang Yangliu, Ye Mu looked away and said to Wen Zhuang and Jing Tong, "Then, let me bid farewell."
The disciples of Baicao Hall are very busy these days, and the internal patrols have been relaxed.Ye Mu took this opportunity to investigate all the suspicious locations, but apart from matching those locations with the building distribution of Baicao Hall in the game in his memory, he had almost nothing else to gain.However, the situation is completely opposite. On the other hand, the investigation of Dinghunxiang has already locked in the final goal.
As the soul-fixing incense of high-level Gu poison, not many disciples of the Poison Department of Baicaotang know how to use it.After asking about who were the disciples who had not been in the sect for a long time during that approximate period, the only answer appeared in front of Ye Mu with ease.
Gu Xingyan, an outstanding disciple of the Poison Department.It's just that because he focuses on studying attack poisons, he doesn't have a wide range of knowledge like Wen Zhuang, and he is mean and arrogant, and he doesn't like to socialize, so his reputation among poison disciples is not as good as Wen Zhuang.But he doesn't seem to care about it.On the contrary, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is Wen Zhuang's number one fan in his daily support for Wen Zhuang.
Among the few candidates who could use Dinghunxiang, only Gu Xingyan traveled outside during that period, it is said that he was in order to catch a rare poison, and he did not return to the sect until two months ago.Because Gu Xingyan rarely associates with his fellow disciples, no one knows what Gu Xingyan has gained this time.
It seems that there is no progress on the matter of resurrection skills in Baicaotang, not to mention the current situation in Xiliang, it is really not suitable for Ye Ming to stay for a long time.Ye Mu planned to take Ye Ming to the Shanshui Pavilion first before the monsters turned their attention to the Jiangnan area.But before that, he planned to look for an opportunity to hit Gu Xingyan with a sap, to see if he could get some clues about Dinghunxiang, which could be regarded as helping Baicaotang to troubleshoot hidden dangers.
... Well, probably, with a bit of revenge.After all, thanks to Gu Xingyan's "propaganda" to him in Baicao Hall, he spent a lot of effort and tongue in collecting information.
Ye Mu looked at the green dot of Gu Xingyan on the map, and turned his eyes meaningfully.
Wen Zhuang and Jing Tong naturally didn't know what Ye Mu was planning in his heart.Hearing Ye Mu say goodbye, Wen Zhuang was fine, he just looked at Ye Mu, crossed his arms and said "I will see you later".Jing Tong's reaction was much more intriguing. She let out a "huh" in surprise and said, "Are you leaving now?"
Ye Mu thought for a moment, looked at Jing Tong, and asked, "Miss Jing, what's the matter?" He was keenly aware that Jing Tong seemed a little... anxious?This was the first time she forgot the kind of fear she had always had, and she didn't even say anything to the polite "Young Xia Ye".
Jing Tong shook her head and said, "It's nothing." After a pause, she hesitated and said again, "Are you leaving soon?"
Ye Mu quickly thought about the intention of Jing Tong's question.These days, he and Jing Tong don't have much friendship at all, and if they don't have to deal with him, the other party should be relieved.If there is anything abnormal...it is the "Jiang Shaoxia" who talked with Jing Tong in the forest that night.
If it is for this reason, it is just the right time to solve the problem together.
As early as when the epidemic broke out, Ye Mu took Ye Ming to hide in the forest.With Jia Luo watching over him, he wasn't worried about Ye Ming's safety.Taking advantage of the fact that there is no need to worry about the future, it is time to see what medicine is sold in the other party's gourd.
After making up his mind, Ye Mu replied: "It's getting late today, I'm going to stay in the town for a night, and I'll be on the road tomorrow."
Jing Tong breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and said, "So, I wish Ye Shaoxia a smooth journey."
Ye Mu cupped his fists in return, as if he didn't notice anything, he said briefly: "Goodbye."
Back at the hostel, Ye Mu washed up and took a nap, but the people waiting for him surprised him a bit.
Standing outside the door were Jing An and Wen Zhuang.
This combination...
He moved to invite the two of them into the house, and at the same time closed the door, he called up the system map. After he glanced to confirm that there was no abnormality around him, he paid attention to the movement around him. Ye Mu turned around and asked, "You two, come here. What's the matter?"
The room was not big, and it seemed a little cramped with three grown men in it.After entering the house, Wen Zhuang went to find a chair and sat down, but Jing An stood still, Zheng Se and Ye Mu said: "Ye Shaoxia, it's a shame to visit, we have something important to ask for your help." Said He gave a salute.
Ye Mu looked at Jing An, then at Wen Zhuang who was sitting with an uncharacteristically solemn face, and said, "Please tell me."
Jing An and Wen Zhuang looked at each other, and Wen Zhuang nodded, indicating that the surroundings are safe.Only then did Jing An look at Ye Mu again, and said, "Young Xia Ye came from the Central Plains, so he must have seen those demons. We would like to ask Shaoxia Ye to help find out if there are any traces of demons in this area."
Ye Mu never thought that what Jing An said would be this, so he immediately became serious and asked, "What do you mean?"
Jing An said in a deep voice: "This epidemic is strange. We have checked the water source, food, mosquitoes and climate, but still can't find the source of the epidemic. Moreover, this epidemic is different from the previous diseases, and the effect of the medicine will be greatly reduced. We It is suspected that the source of the epidemic is demons."
After a pause, he said: "At first we didn't think about it in this direction, but after Ye Shaoxia left this afternoon, some disciples who went out to collect herbs came to report..." He paused for a moment, showing an indescribable expression, "In the Fresh human bones were found in the forests in this area. Judging from the traces on them, they were not made by wild animals."
He looked at Ye Mu and said sincerely: "This matter is of great importance and cannot be ignored. The disciples of Baicaotang live in Xiliang for a long time and know little about monsters. I know that the Palace of Seven Kills is best at collecting information. Please invite Ye Shaoxia here If you delay for a while, Baicaotang will pay according to the rules of the Palace of Seven Kills."
As soon as Jing An finished speaking, a brand new panel suddenly appeared in front of Ye Mu.
It took Ye Mu a lot of effort to control the expression on his face so that he didn't show any frightened look.
[Order in danger] Jing An entrusts you to investigate the source of the recent epidemic in the city.
[Task Rewards] Gold Twelve, 500 reputation in the Hall of Seven Kills
The simple two lines of words can be seen clearly with a scan.Ye Mu called up the information bar, and sure enough, he saw new information.

Ye Mu put away the two floating windows, not in a hurry to reply to Jing An.Although he knew it was unlikely, he called up the map to confirm Ye Ming's situation.After confirming that Xiaowa was safe and sound, he felt relieved, met Jing An's gaze, and replied, "Okay."
The task bar didn't provide him with the option to refuse, so it's good to sell Baicaotang a favor and take the opportunity to see what's going on with this system.
Ye Mu walked to the side of the bed, pretending to take things from the bedside, and took out the black cloak that covered his clothes from the package under the cover of his body, turned around and asked Jing An: "Where is the forest where the human bones were found?"
Wen Zhuang on the side stood up and said, "I'll take you to have a look."
The three of them left the hostel, Jing An went back to Baicao Hall first to deal with matters, Wen Zhuang took his horse, looked at Ye Mu, and asked, "Where's your horse?"
[Private Chat] You said to Chasing Wind: Come here, you don't need to be watched.
Lying outside the door of a restaurant across the street, the fiery red horse that looked like a diner stood up, and the rein that should have been tied was somehow opened.It strolled across the road, glanced at Wenzhuang's black horse very proudly, let out a breath from its nostrils, and then obediently walked back to stand beside Ye Mu.Ye Mu always felt that it seemed to stand more vigorously than usual, and its four long legs looked particularly strong.
The waiter at the restaurant looked over his head, scratched his head in confusion, and retracted his head.
When did the red horse lie there, why didn't he find out...
Wen Zhuang took a look at the red horse, the people in the Palace of Seven Killings of the Heart Way are so weird even raising a horse.He didn't say anything, and when he saw Ye Mu's horse approaching, he got on his horse and led the way.The movement of getting on the horse is skillful and smooth, and it is obvious that he often acts outside.
The mountain forest was surprisingly not too far away from the town.Strictly speaking, it is closer than it is to Baicao Hall.
Stopping outside the forest, after Wen Zhuang got off his horse, he didn't rush into the forest, but picked up a black cloth bundle hanging on the horse's back, and asked Ye Mu: "I brought those bones too, let me show you? "
After Ye Mu responded, he took it, and a bloody smell came to his nostrils.Opening the package, the exposed human bones look like tooth marks.Neatly up and down two crescents.He was slightly taken aback, this trace...
"It really looks like a human's tooth marks." Wen Zhuang said.He led the horse and looked at Ye Mu, and said, "If it weren't for the fact that humans don't have such hard teeth that can leave marks on this kind of bone, I would really think that this person was eaten."
"Among monsters, there are many races whose structure is very similar to that of humans." Ye Mu said noncommittally, thinking of Youmengmo's impressive white teeth.
However, he really didn't have much research on the tooth marks of monsters. After all, he didn't really let those monsters bite one by one for comparison.After retying the black cloth bag, Ye Mu said to Wen Zhuang, "Let's go to the woods to have a look."
After walking deep into the woods for a while, they came to the small open space.Ye Mu observed the growth of the surrounding forests, as well as the nearby trunks and bushes, but found no traces of any suspected demonic actions.
There were still a few messy human footprints left in that clearing, but Ye Mu found nothing else.
After parting with Wen Zhuang and returning to the hostel, Ye Mu sat at the table, reopened the black cloth bundle, took out a bone, and stared at the tooth marks on it, lost in thought.
I don't know why, but I always feel that this trace looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere.
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, but then, Ye Mu subconsciously wanted to overthrow that assumption.
How is it possible... No, just to be on the safe side, it's better to try.
Putting down the bones, Ye Mu got up, put on his cloak and walked out the door. A moment later, he returned to the room with a steamed bun and a ball of hard soda noodles he bought from the restaurant.
Because of this request, he was given strange looks by the restaurant's waiter several times.
After taking a big bite on the steamed bun, Ye Mu compared the steamed bun with the human bone, and his face slowly became gloomy.
He made a simple dental model for himself with hard alkali, and Ye Mu gently placed it on the tooth mark of the human bone.
The dental model landed firmly in the tooth marks, and it fit perfectly, as if it should have come from the same tooth.
Saying goodbye to Huang Yangliu, Ye Mu looked away and said to Wen Zhuang and Jing Tong, "Then, let me bid farewell."
