Everyone looked at the Huangtu Ridge with no roads and few plants, with mixed emotions.

What does it mean to be far away in the sky and close in front of you?This is.Zhou Taotao and other employees of the Special Administrative Bureau who were in charge here had mixed feelings. They have been busy in Xitu Village for so long, and they have been walking back and forth at the feet of the big boss behind the scenes.

As complicated as it gets, the work still needs to continue.

Going up rashly is to die, they assembled a drone and planned to fly around it first, to see if they could take a picture of the front of the monster.As for whether it will disturb the monsters, there is no need to worry about this. It would be even better if the monsters can be disturbed to move to the nest, preferably on the ground.

Only on the ground, Zhang Zizhen, the only one of them with unscientific combat power, and their hot weapons can hit each other.

Everyone tacitly did not mention letting the scorching wind destroy the monsters.

Raising the drone, a group of people gathered around and stared at the screen carefully.In order to be able to clearly capture the image of the monster, the drone was flying very close to the dirt ridge, and the grass growing on it could be seen clearly.After half a circle, when flying to the back of the ridge, I saw a hole in the earth slope mountain from a distance, and the operator flew over immediately.

"owl?"

Someone sounded an uncertain voice, and someone echoed: "It seems so, shouldn't all owls live in trees, why are there still nests in soil holes?"

"What kind of owl is this? Why are there two tufts of hair growing next to the ears on the top of the head? It looks like human ears."

"Is it grass? How is it possible... Damn!"

It may be that the sound of the drone was too loud, which disturbed the bird in the hole. The bird with its back to the hole turned its head suddenly, causing everyone staring at the screen to utter "Fuck" in unison.

Where the hell is an owl.Whose owl has a human face, four eyes and two human ears?

"Demon, monster!"

One person pointed at the screen, stuttering and almost speaking incoherently.

The owl-like monster turned its body around, stared at the drone curiously, and could clearly see a puzzled expression on its humanoid face.

"So ugly!"

Yan Jue looked down and saw Nuo Er, who might have been awakened by their exclamation, rubbing his eyes while looking at the screen expressing emotion.

It turns out that this monster is also ugly in Noel's eyes.Thoughts flashed by, Yan Jue suppressed his distracting thoughts and said to Zhuofeng: "Zhaofeng, can I ask you to catch the monster?"

The monster has wings and can run away at any time, and it is very likely that it will not come to the ground at all. In order to avoid accidents, Yan Jue didn't care about letting his own people practice. The best choice is to seek help from the scorching wind.

Burning Wind didn't say much, just nodded and drifted away.

Nuoer was already awake, and quickly understood that it was the critical moment to catch the monster. Instead of talking to Yan Jue, he held his teacup and looked nervously at the direction where the scorching wind was leaving.

In just a few seconds, the scorching wind appeared in the camera range. The monster might have noticed it, and it obviously started to get restless and ran towards the entrance of the cave with two paws, trying to escape.But it was vigilant, the scorching wind was faster than him, and when the owl was about to spread its wings at the entrance of the cave, the scorching wind didn't see any big movements. With a light flick of its tail, the owl kept spreading its wings and fell straight down.

The drone hurriedly followed, trying to take a picture of where the owl landed so that it could be picked up. The next second, the owl stopped rolling and floated in mid-air, and came back behind the scorching wind.

Yan Jue was relieved, and looked up to find the location of Burning Wind to pick him up, but Zhou Taotao, who found something wrong, exclaimed: "Hurry up and collect your things! The villagers seem to have woken up, you hurry up and collect your things, Xiao Chen stays behind."

A group of people gathered their things and ran outside in a panic before they were too happy. Yan Jue stretched out his hand and gestured to the scorching wind from a distance. After seeing him following up, he also started to slip out.

He ran out of the village in one breath, before Yan Jue could react, an experienced person with gloves tied up the monster caught by the scorching wind and put it in a sack.

Zhang Zizhen patted his chest: "It's really exciting."

The man put the monster into the trunk: "Consultant Yan, let's go first. Taotao and the others have stayed here for a long time, and the villagers are familiar with them. They must stay for the villagers to make up an acceptable explanation. It will take a while." It will be short, let's go back to town and wait for them."

Yan Jue nodded and followed the others into the car.

Nuoer was eager to try, and wanted to run to the back compartment to see the monsters, but Yan Jue held the fish in his hands to prevent him from running away, then turned to ask the scorching wind: "How is it, did you consume a lot of spiritual energy?"

"That monster is very weak to me." Scorching Wind showed off reservedly.

"That's good, the scorching wind is awesome!"

Yan Jue touched the top of Burning Wind's head, seeing that Nuoer couldn't get rid of the idea of ​​seeing the monster, he turned his eyes and had to push the little fish to Nuoer's side: "It's all about Burning Wind, the teacher doesn't know the details, even the monster I don't know how old it is."

The implication is that only the scorching wind who caught the monster knows best what the monster looks like.

As soon as Nuoer heard it, he really wanted to listen to him.Burning Wind looked at Yan Jue helplessly, and after receiving the apology and flattering smile from the other party, he had no choice but to accept this task.

Zhang Zizhen watched the interaction between Yan Jue and the three of them eagerly, touched him and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yan, where did you meet these two monsters?" I also want to try my luck.

And he also respectfully called Brother Yan a "teacher", he really deserves to be a consultant of the Special Administration Bureau, and his methods are so extraordinary.

"We met by accident." It was impossible for Yan Jue to reveal, so he could only change the topic with a haha: "Do you know what kind of monster that is?"

"I don't know. My knowledge of monsters is limited to common species in reality. If it doesn't have a human face, I might judge it as an owl demon."

"But don't worry." Zhang Zizhen took out his mobile phone: "When you meet someone you don't know, just let them know."

Yan Jue: "...Are you serious?"

Although everyone was a new generation of young people in the past few decades, there is no need to be so technological at this time.

"Of course. It's impossible for monsters to create a new species out of thin air, right? What if this thing is an ancient monster that was revived with spiritual energy? We have to trust the experience of our predecessors."

Zhang Zizhen skillfully entered keywords on Baidu while talking, and then clicked to confirm.

"Fuck?"

"Really?" Yan Jue poked his head curiously, and was also shocked: "Fuck, Shan Hai Jing?"

This book is really familiar to young people, and it must have a place in various occult accounts and unsolved mysteries.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true, not scribbling.

"What does this word read, 颙, yong?" Zhang Zizhen repeated the search content: "There is a bird in the mountain, which looks like... Once it appears, there will be a severe drought in the world. ①"

Yan Jue and Zhang Zizhen looked at each other.

Thinking about all the anomalies in Xitu Village, Yan Jue swallowed: "It's right...except for being able to confuse people, everything else is right."

Think about the various beasts in Shan Hai Jing, if they all appear in turn... Zhang Zizhen couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.

"It's not demagogic, it's its instinct."

"Scorching wind?"

Yan Jue was startled, and looked back at Burning Wind and Nuoer who had been listening for a long time, and asked curiously, "Do you have any explanation?"

"Just now I heard him say that the world will suffer a severe drought as soon as the 颙 appears. If the record is correct, it really has this ability, then everything it caused in the village is caused by instinct, which is similar to the innate supernatural power I mentioned. .”

Scorching Wind explained: "The spiritual energy here has just been revived. Naturally, it is impossible for it to reach the peak of its power immediately after waking up, and it may even be in a weak state. In order to replenish energy, it can only obtain it from the nearest human beings besides absorbing the spiritual energy of the weather."

"Anyone who can cause a severe drought in the world should be an evil monster on the teacher's side, right? It's not surprising that it hurts humans."

After finishing speaking, Zhuofeng became even more curious about the "Shan Hai Jing" in the teacher's mouth.There are many monsters who come out with ice or flames and charm, but this is the first time I see him with the magical attribute of drought in the world.

He looked at Yan Jue and asked frankly: "Can the teacher give me a copy of "Shan Hai Jing"?"

In the teacher's world, he can't read books, so he can only ask the teacher to send him through the kindergarten.

Yan Jue understood this truth, and agreed without asking: "Yes, I will send it now. Is Nuoer interested?"

Noel nodded: "I want to see it too!"

"Okay, give Noel a copy too."

"It's a pity that I don't have a book like "Shan Hai Jing". Otherwise, I can give the teacher a copy, so that in the future, the teacher can choose any gift from it!" Nuoer said happily: "I don't have to worry about it anymore. Worried about what gift to give."

Yan Jue rubbed his head helplessly: "Little lazy fish."

After returning to the rented small courtyard, the accompanying people put Yong into an empty room, they didn't dare to move, but went to invite the scorching wind first.

When Scorching Wind heard the other party's question, he was a little embarrassed and said: "I'm not very proficient in attacking, and my strikes are a bit heavy. Now it only has one breath left."

He has been in captivity for more than 40 years, and his actual combat experience is pitiful.

Yan Jue, who knew the past of the scorching wind, knew why, and was afraid of being blamed, so he took the initiative to apologize: "Did he ruin your plan? The scorching wind didn't do it on purpose."

"No, no, no." The man waved his hand, "Because of the disaster attribute of this thing, we didn't intend to keep it alive. We just couldn't tell whether it was dead or alive, so we came to ask, since it is still alive In one breath, we have to trouble the scorching wind to kill it completely."

Yan Jue came to a sudden, and after finishing the work with the scorching wind, he didn't bother others to do research, took a little tail named Zhang Zizhen, and played games in the room.

It was not until the afternoon that Zhou Taotao rushed back from Xitu Village.

Seeing that he came back so late, Yan Jue was afraid that something might happen to him, so he asked him to take care of him, "Brother Zhou, is everything going well? Do you want to help? There are potions that can hypnotize people in the mall."

"No, it's settled."

"Oh? What reason are you looking for?"

"We showed up in the village several times. After the villagers regained their senses, some of them still remembered us. We said that we were from the Public Security Bureau to investigate the cult." Zhou Taotao had a familiar expression: "Their The memory is still there, and we took advantage of the trend to say that there is a group of cult members who are good at hypnotizing, and after hypnotizing them, they want to use sacrifices to create gods for themselves, and take the opportunity to make money."

"I also said that fortunately when we arrived, they only reached the first step, and they didn't have time to let everyone pay their belongings. We have already arrested them. I hope everyone will be more vigilant in the future. I comforted the villagers and helped them clean up. I came back after leaving the grain drying ground."

Yan Jue gave Zhou Taotao a thumbs-up: "It's amazing, just looking at you, you are so deep into the true biography of science."

"Come on, there will be many things like this in the future, and you won't be able to run away." Zhou Taotao patted his hand off, glanced at his shoulder, and asked, "Where are the two cubs you never leave?"

"They were very interested in "Shan Hai Jing" and went back to the game to read."

""Shan Hai Jing"?" He had just returned, and he hadn't had time to understand what happened after his people left in the morning.

"Well, monsters are recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas, Brother Zhou, you will know after a quick look."

Zhou Taotao became interested, and after a quick confession that he was on the return flight at night, he went to find someone to understand the situation.

Yan Jue went back to the room and went straight to the game.

With plenty of time, strike while the iron is hot, just in time to find Burning Wind to trade something they can use.

The author says:

①Translation from Baidu Encyclopedia: There is a bird in the mountains, shaped like an owl, but with a human face, four eyes and ears. Its name is 颙, and the sound it makes is the pronunciation of its own name. There will be a severe drought.
