In the end, Yu Ji opened the door, and Tang Hao went back to his room to sleep.
Of course, the two of them did not sleep together … Although Tang Hao really hoped that it would be like this, even if they slept together and did nothing, just hugging each other would definitely be very comfortable. However, after all, it had not developed to that point. Yu Ji gave him the only bed, while she hung a rope from the beam and slept on the rope like Xiao Longnu.
It was a strange feeling to watch.
However, in general, although Yu Ji's temper was a little violent, her general way of doing things was still in line with this era … Or it could be said that it was the rule of men on the outside and women on the inside. Just like the madam that Mei Shan blurted out before he left, although Yu Ji was a little angry, she did not refute him in front of him. It was only after Mei Shan left that she revealed her dissatisfaction, which could be considered to have given Tang Hao enough face.
Therefore, making Tang Hao stand outside in the cold wind for half an hour was probably because he realized that he had been tricked and wanted to take revenge.
This woman was very vengeful.
Of course, this kind of temper also highlighted the cuteness of a young girl.
Hmm … Young girl?
A night of silence.
When he woke up the next day, the Mei Family Village was as peaceful as ever. Mei Shan came early to ask for instructions and reported to Tang Hao that nothing had happened last night. The villagers in the village were also doing their own farm work and housework, as if they did not care about the vampire incident at all.
It could be considered an atmosphere unique to this era.
No matter how wise the First Emperor of Qin was, he was still a little too strict for the people of this era. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been known as a tyrant for thousands of years. Although part of it was because of the Confucian school … The people lived and worked in peace under the rule of Qin, and did not need to worry about bandits and foreign invasions. These things seemed to have completely disappeared under the Great Qin Cavalry, but the tyranny of Qin itself also pressured the people to the point where they could not breathe. Life was already not easy, so how could they have the mood to pay attention to the matter of the vampires?
After all, no matter how much you praised Big Brother Zheng, you still have to follow the basic law.
Of course, Tang Hao did not have the leisure to study the livelihood of the people. He came to the Qin Dynasty as a passerby, but now that the vampires did not appear, he seemed to have nothing to do and did not know what to do next.
"Even if the vampires are really hiding in Mei Family Village, with you in charge, they probably won't jump out." Yu Ji said.
That was the logic.
With Tang Hao here, the vampires wouldn't come out. If he left, he wouldn't be able to grasp the vampires' movements.
"As expected, I shouldn't have killed Zhao Da Dan. I should have left him alive."
"He's already dead. What's the point of mentioning this now?"
"Then what do you think we should do next?"
"How would I know? I'm just a little assistant."
Alright.
Tang Hao sighed, knowing that he had asked the wrong person.
Yu Ji had lived for a long time and had a lot of experience, but if you were to say that her IQ was very high, it would be a joke. After living for thousands of years, she still had the personality of a grumpy elder sister. Although she was cute, it also showed that she did not live with her brain. Other than hiding her disguise in front of others, she was completely spontaneous and relied on her instincts to act.
In the end, lifespan and IQ were not necessarily related.
However, as a True Ancestor, this was quite normal. The True Ancestor used 99% of his thinking and willpower to suppress the urge to suck blood, and the last 1% was used to talk about love. How could there be any space left to learn and research things like intelligence?
Look at Elqit, the ceiling of the True Ancestor, isn't he just a silly sweet.
Therefore, it was not unreasonable for the True Ancestor to go extinct and become a rare animal like a cat or two.
"Sigh, forget it." Tang Hao stood up and called out to Yu Ji, "Since this Mei Family Village is not big, let's go take a look around the village first. If we're lucky, we might run into a vampire."
"Even if I did, would you be able to recognize me?"
"Nope." Tang Hao shook his head. He admitted that he did not have the ability in this area. Even if it was Zhao Dan, he only felt that things were too smooth. If Zhao Dan did not jump out and show himself, he would not have known that this guy was a vampire. However, "Don't we still have you? Vampires are products created by elves after they suck blood. Strictly speaking, they are your kin. You should be able to recognize them, right?"
"I don't have the ability in this area."
"Huh?"
"That's because I've never sucked blood before. Even if a fallen elf created a vampire, it would only be related to that fallen elf. As long as they disguise themselves a little and pretend to be humans, it would be difficult for me to tell them apart, unless they reveal their bloodsucking characteristics."
"So, what have you learned after living for so many years?"
"… the experience of wandering and escaping, and … the way to kill."
Alright, this Granny Yu is useless now.
After that, just like what Yu Ji said, Tang Hao investigated in Mei Family Village for three days and still did not find any clues. Many people even felt that the vampire incident was over, and the initial oppressive atmosphere was gone. People started to talk and laugh, and even the number of guards in the village decreased.
However, Tang Hao did not let his guard down. Instead, he felt like a storm was brewing.
At this time, he received a piece of news from Mei Shan.
"What did you say? A vampire appeared in the neighboring village?"
"Yes, Lord."
In the neighboring village, less than ten miles away from the Mei Family Village, the vampire appeared last night. It was a family that had just gotten married. The young man happily married the bride, but just as they were about to consummate their marriage, the bride suddenly turned into a vampire and bit the groom's neck. When the groom's family heard the scream and rushed in, he had already turned into a dried corpse and died on the bride's belly.
It was a tragedy.
"Where is the vampire?" Tang Hao asked.
"Replying to Lord." Mei Shan bowed. "It's quite a coincidence. When that family was having a wedding, a Daoist priest happened to pass by the village. The Daoist priest was penniless and wanted to drink some wine. Taking advantage of the big day, the master invited him to the banquet. The Daoist priest got drunk at the banquet, so the master didn't want to chase him away. So, he was thrown into the woodshed. When he sobered up, he was allowed to leave …"
"Get to the point!"
"… In the middle of the night, the Daoist went to the toilet to relieve himself. Suddenly, he heard a scream, and the Daoist shouted 'demon is causing trouble' and rushed over. In fact, he was the one who kicked open the door of the bridal chamber, and the family finally found out that the bride had turned into a vampire …"
"Where is the vampire?!" Tang Hao's face darkened.
"Replying to Lord." Mei Shan's face changed, and he immediately replied. "The vampire is being suppressed by the Daoist in the bridal chamber, and both sides are in a stalemate. That's why I sent someone to inform Mei Family Village, hoping that Lord can help."
So, why don't you just say this? You're talking about a happy occasion and a Daoist, and you're talking about it for a long time!
"Let's go."
Tang Hao waved his hand and brought Yu Ji out of the village.
The neighboring village was not far, and Tang Hao knew the way. With such a short distance, it was undoubtedly the most convenient and fastest to travel with Yu Ji. In less than half an hour, the two of them had already arrived at their destination.
Of course, the neighboring village was not called the neighboring village, because there was a small river flowing through the village. It was called the River Village, and it was even smaller than the Mei Family Village. There were only a few dozen families in the village, and the vampire incident of the bride killing the groom last night had also caused an uproar.
In this day and age, those who could still afford to hold a banquet after marrying a wife would not be too poor. This was the case for this family. They were practically the wealthiest family in River Village. The inside and outside of the house were decorated with red festive decorations. Unfortunately, in one night, the happy event had turned into a funeral. It was originally quite lively, but now it was completely deserted.
Of course, from afar, there were still many people paying attention to the situation. They were pointing and discussing.
No matter what era it was, it was human nature to watch the show.
Tang Hao shook his head and pushed open the door.
"What a sin, I'm really a sin!" Why would I want to drink a wedding wine? "I'm just a swindler. I've cheated for half my life, but in the end, it's rare for me to do a good deed, and I'm going to lose my life here. Sigh, I'm so unlucky, sob sob sob sob …"
Just as Tang Hao pushed open the door, he heard a scolding and crying voice. He originally thought it was the groom's family, but when he looked up, he saw a sloppy old Daoist sitting in the middle of the courtyard, drinking wine while complaining.
"Hmm?"
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the Daoist priest turned his head with the wine jug in his hand. His eyes immediately widened as he scolded, "Didn't this old Daoist say that this place is haunted? Whether it's a bystander or a member of this family, get out of here. "Scram, scram!"
The Daoist priest's attitude was very bad, but Tang Hao smiled.
Combined with what he said just now, he already understood that this Daoist priest was a swindler. Although he did not know where he learned some skills and used them to cheat for food and drink, he was not a bad person. At this time, he was still suppressing the vampires alone and forbidding others from entering. Obviously, he was also considering the issue of safety.
"I'm Lang Zhongling, an expert in catching ghosts."
Tang Hao stepped forward, took out his token and waved it.
"Expert?" The sloppy old Daoist was stunned, and his face was full of suspicion. He also knew that someone went out of the village to ask for help, but a child who was not even fully grown and a woman, what kind of expert were they?
Were they really not here to die?
"Hehe …"
At this moment, a coquettish laughter came from the big house, and the originally closed door suddenly opened with a bang.
The sloppy old Daoist's expression changed, "Aiyo! This thing can't be suppressed any longer! "
"Hehehe …" Amidst the coquettish laughter, a woman wearing a bride's dress floated out and stopped at the door of the house. She threw a coquettish glance at Tang Hao and asked in a coquettish voice, "Dear, am I beautiful?"
This bride was probably the most beautiful girl in the village. She was indeed somewhat good-looking, and with her charming temperament, it was enough to seduce a man's soul.
However, Tang Hao frowned, "I don't think so."
He reached out and pulled Yu Ji to the front, and said proudly, "My Yu is ten thousand times more beautiful than you!"
