Start Six Maids

"Let's go."

After greeting a few people, Chu Ci took the lead and left the courtyard.

Following the path of the village, several people kept walking, and soon came to the head of the village.

The old pagoda tree still stood at the entrance of the village, and the red silk hanging from the branches rustled in the evening wind.

On both sides of the road at the entrance of the village, the wheat planted in the farmland fluctuates with the wind, revealing several scarecrows with weird shapes standing in the farmland, appearing and disappearing in the sight of everyone with the ups and downs of the wheat.

On the scarecrow's head is a straw hat woven by farmers. The straw hat is very worn out and barely covers the upper half of the scarecrow's face, except for a big mouth drawn in white ash.

A few pieces of rags were barely hung on the scarecrow's body to serve as the scarecrow's clothing. From a distance, it seemed that big bats were hanging on the scarecrow's body.

A few people crossed the old locust tree, and there were only a few steps left to leave the illusion of the village, but Chu Ci suddenly stopped.

Li Yuchun and the others followed behind Chu Ci, and they all stopped when they saw this.

Li Yuchun looked at Chu Ci and asked aloud, "Chu Ci, why don't you leave?"

Chu Ci pondered for a moment, looked at several people and asked, "Who made this illusion you say?"

Li Yuchun thought for a while and said, "Could it be made by the rat demon?"

Chu Ci shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "It can't be the rat monster. The rat monster was killed by us, but the illusion is still there!"

Song Qian pondered for a moment, then said, "Could it be formed naturally? There are many such strange places recorded in the Department of Strangeness."

Chu Ci shook his head and vetoed, "It can't be formed naturally, otherwise why change the demon into a human being?"

Li Baitian rubbed his chin and pondered, "In this way, he is an ally of the demon?"

Looking around, Li Baitian said suspiciously, "But there is no one else here?"

Chu Ci looked up at the scarecrow who appeared and disappeared in the wheat field, and said aloud, "Who stipulates that allies must be human?"

Chapter 126 Scarecrow of Fear!

Li Yuchun looked at Chu Ci suddenly, and asked in a low voice, "Chu Ci, did you find something?"

Chu Ci raised his finger to the scarecrow in the wheat field and said, "Leader, do you find these scarecrows a bit strange?"

"Strange?" Li Yuchun looked at the scarecrows after hearing the words, and watched them intently for a moment.

"No? Aren't all scarecrows like this?"

Song Qian also looked up for a moment, then frowned and said, "It's not different, but after looking at it for a long time, I feel a little creepy!"

Li Baitian wiped his arm with his hand and said, "Hearing what you said, I have goose bumps all over my body."

Tian Miao looked at Chu Ci, hesitated for a moment and said, "Student Chu, is there something wrong with these scarecrows?"

Chu Ci looked at the scarecrow and said in a deep voice, "Because they don't move!"

Everyone was stunned and said, "The scarecrow is a dead thing, shouldn't it be normal to not move?"

Chu Ci shook his head and said, "Look carefully."

"The wheat in the farmland is moving, the red silk on the branches of the locust trees behind us is moving, and even our clothes are being blown by the wind."

"But what about these scarecrows? Neither the straw hats nor the clothes they wear have moved!"

"It's normal to look at these scarecrows alone, but isn't it strange when compared with the surrounding environment?"

After hearing this, everyone looked at the scarecrow in the wheat field again, and after a while, Qiqi took a deep breath.

"hiss···"

"Looking at it this way, it's very strange!"

"Could it be that these scarecrows created the illusion of this village?"

"Thinking is terrifying!"

···

Chu Ci raised his hand and interrupted everyone's discussion.

"If you want to know if these scarecrows are playing tricks, try it!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Ci reached out and took off the hand crossbow from his waist.

He raised his hand to wind the string, and put a crossbow arrow with a Taoist magic-breaking talisman into the card slot.

Aiming at the nearest scarecrow, Chu Ci pulled the trigger of the hand crossbow.

Whoosh!

The crossbow shot out of the air immediately, and directly pierced into the scarecrow's chest!

The magic-breaking talisman carved on the crossbow arrow gradually lit up.

In the next second, the scarecrow burst into flames!

[Kill the Scarecrow of Fear (clone), and get 100 points for killing monsters. 】

A voice came from Chu Ci's mind.

Seeing this, Chu Ci's eyes flashed strangely, and he said in a deep voice, "These scarecrows really have problems!"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Chu Ci's hand kept moving, and when he raised his hand, three talisman crossbow arrows shot out again!

[Kill the Scarecrow of Fear (clone), and get 100 points for killing monsters. 】

[Kill the Scarecrow of Fear (clone), and get 100 points for killing monsters. 】

[Kill the Scarecrow of Fear (clone), and get 100 points for killing monsters. 】

Three consecutive voices came from Chu Ci's mind.

The few scarecrows in the wheat field all turned into torches and burned blazingly under the night sky.

While the flames were rising, Chuci and the others saw the scarecrow moving in a daze.

With his head raised slightly, the eyes covered by the brim of the straw hat looked at Chu Ci and the others, and the big mouth drawn by Bai Hui turned up slightly!

"whee···"

"Ha ha···"

In the ears of everyone, it seemed that they could hear the small and eerie laughter from the wheat field.

After a long time, the flames gradually went out, and all the scarecrows were reduced to ashes.

The air swayed like water waves, and after a while, the illusion around everyone shattered, gradually revealing the real side.

Everyone looked around intently, the location was still at the head of the village, but there was no farmland here, it was already overgrown with weeds and barren.

Even the small road under everyone's feet, it is almost impossible to distinguish the appearance of the road.

Chu Ci turned to look at Gaojia Village, but he looked black and dilapidated after the fire.

And the old locust tree at the head of the village, only the dark trunk is still standing stubbornly, it seems to be the last stubbornness of Gaojia Village.

Li Yuchun looked at the piles of ashes among the barren weeds, and couldn't help saying, "What kind of scarecrow is this?"

"There is such a powerful hallucinogenic power? Fortunately, it can be destroyed with one blow, and there is no defense."

Song Qian frowned and shook her head, and said in a deep voice, "There is no record of this kind of scarecrow in the headquarters."

"Maybe it's because I don't have enough authority. The scarecrow has a relatively high level of confidentiality."

Chu Ci frowned slightly as he looked at the ashes left by the scarecrow.

Is it just a clone of the scarecrow?

A trace of fear rose in Chu Ci's heart.

Before Chuci heard Lu Qian mention the fear of scarecrows, this is a strange existence comparable to a ninth-level powerhouse!

Unexpectedly, in this deserted village, they encountered the clone of the scarecrow.

But just a few clones can have such a powerful hallucinogenic ability, even the prayer charm can only dispel one area.

Looking at the leopard in the tube, one can imagine how difficult the scarecrow's real body must be!

"call···"

Chu Ci breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Li Yuchun and the others and said, "Don't think so much, go back and report!"

Several people got on their horses, and the two of them rode together and galloped towards the inner city.

When it was dawn, Chuci and the others rode back to the headquarters of the Department of Strange Love.

"Team Leader Song, you are back!"

In the headquarters compound, someone saw Song Qian and the others, and immediately shouted in surprise.

Song Qian's disappearance at night patrol is not a secret, and many people know the news.

For the few female members of the Weird Department, and they are still single women, there should not be too many people who secretly pay attention.

Knowing that Song Qian was missing, many people were worried about her.

Seeing that Song Qian had returned safely, she was naturally very happy.

Song Qian nodded to everyone, and said aloud, "Thanks to Chu Ci and Team Leader Li, we can return safely."

"It's a pity that Sun Eryi was unfortunately buried in the mouth of the demon..."

Everyone's faces turned dark when they heard the words. As members of the Department of Strange Affairs, they were all ready to sacrifice at any time.

However, hearing the sacrifice of colleagues, I still feel sad in my heart.

Chapter 127 Retreat, practice!

Song Qian's team disappeared during the night patrol and was trapped in a village.

Although one of the members unfortunately died at the hands of the demon, it was better than annihilation of the whole army.

After being rescued by Chu Ci and others, Song Qian and Tian Miao met with the cordial care of the enthusiastic activists of the Weird Department.

An iron fighter squeezed into the crowd and found Chu Ci and the others.

"Team Leader Li, Team Leader Song, and Brother Chu Ci, Master Qian Shi let you go!"

Chu Ci and the others nodded, pushed everyone away, and walked towards Zheng Shushan's office.

Benedict!Benedict!Benedict!

"Come in!"

squeak-

The three of Chu Ci pushed the door open and walked in.

"sit down."

Zheng Shushan greeted, looked at Song Qian who looked a little tired, and said, "Song Qian, tell me first, what's going on?"

Song Qian nodded, and said in a deep voice, "On August [-]th, we are ordered to go to the outer city in the east of the city to watch the night..."

Song Qian described in detail what happened after the night watch, including how she entered Gaojia Village by mistake to investigate, was besieged there, and Sun Eryi was unfortunately buried in the hands of demons.

After hearing Song Qian's narration, Zheng Shushan turned to Chu Ci and said, "Chu Ci, tell me how you rescued Song Qian and the others?"

Chu Ci nodded, and said aloud, "We searched along the route of Team Leader Song's night patrol, and guessed that Team Leader Song and the others should be trapped somewhere in Gaojia Village."

"So we guarded outside Gaojia Village, and entered it when something abnormal happened in Gaojia Village..."

"We saw Team Leader Song and the others at Mrs. Gao's birthday banquet. In order to rescue Team Leader Song and the others, they fought with the people in Gao's Village."

"It's just that I was confused by the illusion. The people of Gaojia Village couldn't be killed. In desperation, I used a talisman to break through the illusion and kill the demon who turned into a guest!"

Zheng Shushan's face was slightly cold when he heard the words, and he said in a hateful voice, "What monster? How dare you attack the members of the Weird Department!"

Chu Ci responded, "It's a seventh-level rat demon, and dozens of second-level rat demons."

"Oh?" Zheng Shushan's eyes flashed strangely, and he asked aloud, "What kind of talisman did you use to suppress a seventh-level demon and dozens of second-level demons in one fell swoop?"

Chu Ci said aloud, "It's a..."

Before Chuci could finish speaking, Li Yuchun cupped his hands and continued, "It's a talisman that I got by chance. If it wasn't for this talisman, our entire army might be wiped out!"
