The Brave Master Is the Demon King

Although the fire was still burning, its light was dimmed a lot, and there was not enough light in the room, so the woman lighted an old dust lamp, a kind of magic lamp, in a sealed glass container filled with luminous powder .

　　 "So, the crops that disappeared strangely overnight, no wonder the surrounding farmland is bare." The devil touched his chin, and then continued to ask: "Then have you found the prisoner?"

　　 Luoshan showed a distressed expression, shook his head and said, "No, we tried various methods, and even sent people to watch the night without finding any strange animals or prisoners."

　　 "That crop will never run on your own long legs under your nose." The Demon King asked.

　　 Luoshan smiled self-deprecatingly, shook his head and said, "We can't keep staring at all. Sometimes when we are away, when we are eating, or when we go to the bathroom, come back and have a look, huh!"

　　 He spread out his hands and said with a helpless expression: "When I look back, the crops are gone. It's like..."

　　 "It's like being eaten by the land."

　　 The Demon King said lightly.

　　 "Yes! That's it, I was just trying to say that." Luo Shan said excitedly.

　　 "But the earth is innocent. It has nurtured everything, so it won't be rare for us." The woman said suddenly, and the devil felt that she was right.

"This is the weirdest thing, so we suspect it might be man-made, but everyone in the village has this phenomenon in the farmland." Luo Shan calmed down, he clamped a piece of red-hot carbon with iron tongs, and clicked Smoking pipe in hand.

　　 "So poor Mira was driven out of the village." The woman said casually, and she was knitting a sweater with a ball of thread.

　　 "Mira?"

Luoshan was silent for a while, then spit out a smoke and said, "That's a shepherd girl, not from this village. You should see a prairie near the village, where she often herd sheep. About four years ago, She passed our village while herding sheep."

"She is a good girl. When our village was in the most difficult time, she secretly gave away four or five sheep to let us through the hardest days." The woman shook her head and said, "She was fined for it at the time. Not light, but now people forget her kindness, because they lost something and treat them as a thief, Anolam~"

　　 After speaking, she put her hand on her forehead, as if she was repenting.

　　 "That sister is so pitiful."

　　 Rena held the kitten and said weakly.

The devil also agrees that the shepherdess’ status is very low and they are a despised profession. They can only earn a small amount of wages through hard work. Losing a sheep is a big deal, and being scolded by the employer is a trivial matter. Nothing strange.

　　 Let alone the serious matter of losing four or five sheep at a time.

The devil vaguely remembered that a long time ago, when he was traveling with his master, he also met a little boy shepherd. He was sitting on the side of the road and crying bitterly. It was because he lost a sheep that he did not dare to go back for several days. He would rather I kept looking hungry and didn't want to go back. In the end I was exhausted and could only cry alone.

　　 "The prisoner is not her, but her sheep."

　　 The Demon King's dark eyes stared at Luoshan, and he lowered his head.

　　 "Yes, but there are still people who don't believe her, thinking that she used magic."

　　 "Excessive!" Rena said angrily.

　　 "Yes, the gods will definitely not forgive us for what we did, Anoram." The woman gave Rena a helpless wry smile.

　　 "Then why not apologize to her." Rena felt a little unreasonable.

　　 The two fell silent, and the room suddenly became very quiet.

　　 "Until the culprit is not found, there is no way to persuade the other villagers," said the demon king.

　　 After all, not everyone is as reasonable as these two couples.

　　 "The same can be said, then would you like to..."

　　 "Speaking ahead, I will not work in vain. As farmers, you should know that if you want to harvest, you must pay." The devil interrupted him.

　　 Hearing this, the two looked at each other, and Rena was holding the kitten, feeling a little uneasy.

　　 "Then how much do you want?" Luo Shan asked.

　　 "This one has to see what the culprit is. Don't worry, I won't open my mouth, and the price will definitely be on the condition that you can pay."

　　 After listening, the two couples breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at their expressions, it can be seen that they are still a little worried.

　　At night, the two demon kings slept in an empty house with only one wooden bed covered with dry straw. Although the conditions were simple, it was more comfortable than sleeping outside.

　　 "Master."

　　 Rena was lying on the bed, looking at the starry sky outside the window.

　　 "Huh?" The devil sat on a chair, reading a book in the dark environment.

　　 "Are we really going to collect money, we are staying now."

　　 she asked.

　　 "There is no horse that can run 10,000 miles without food or drink, and if you want to harvest, you have to pay, go to bed early, and get up early tomorrow to practice."

　　 "Yes~"

　　……

　　 Early in the morning, the roosters in the village started their concert. People who can sleep in under these conditions are not ordinary people.

　　Hu! !

　　 A dull sound of breaking through the air came from outside the house, and Rena brandished a wooden knife, practicing the sword technique the Demon King taught her.

　　 Although the action is blunt and rough, it can still be completed, but at this stage it is only for her to move her hands and feet.

　　Practicing until the sun is fully up, the two of them finished their breakfast and followed Luoshan to the field.

　　 The Demon King looked around, but at first sight there was nothing suspicious.

　　 "There are no suspicious tracks, it shouldn't be done by herbivores." The Demon King said to himself.

　　 "Well, that's why we suspect it was man-made." Luo Shan said.

　　 At this time, other villagers also came to watch the excitement. They heard that an expert had come to the village to help them see the ‘strange disease’ in this place.

　　 "When does it usually happen, at night?" The devil squatted down and asked ~www.novelmtl.com~ Not necessarily, most of the night, but there are mornings or afternoons. In short, it disappears when people are away. "Luoshan said.

　　 "People in this country must have done it. They don't welcome us to live here."

　　 "It must be because I didn't receive my tax, so I want to drive us away."

　　 some villagers said.

　　 The devil ignored them, he didn't want to be nosy.

　　 "I need to investigate alone, you will affect my work." He stood up and said.

　　 then walked to another field, Rena followed behind him, and the kitty did the same.

　　 The other villagers suddenly spoke, looking at his back with a little displeasedness.

　　 "I hope he is as good as his attitude, otherwise I will drive him out of the village like a liar."

　　 An old bearded man cursed in a low voice.

　　 Luoshan smiled awkwardly and couldn't say anything.

　　 The devil wandered around the world, looking for clues everywhere.

　　He can feel the breath of monsters here, but it is very weak, it may be brought by the wind, and it is still uncertain. There are no clues other than human footprints on the ground. It's so strange. No wonder the villagers are suspicious.

　　 Then he squatted down to investigate the location of the crops. Many crime scenes left only a small hole, where the plants originally grew. If they were pulled out, the ground would definitely be destroyed, and some traces would be left behind.

　　 But there is no such thing, there are only small mouths, as if the plant melted by itself.

　　Wait! melt?

　　 The devil suddenly thought of something. He suddenly noticed that this piece of land had been artificially turned over, and it was very soft.

　　 Could it be it?
