Chapter 2031 Bag

"There is indeed something wrong with Luo Tiedan's wife."

Meng Fugui frowned and said: "After they came to Tianshui Town, I heard that Luo Tiedan's wife never left the house, but occasionally sang some strange songs at home, even The troupe that the alliance leader called before couldn't hear what she was singing; so judging from the current situation, we have reason to suspect that the source of the smell may be related to Luo Tiedan's wife. Maybe he or it came to Luo Tiedan. Tiedan’s wife, and Luo Tiedan’s wife left Tianshui Town with Luo Tiedan after realizing that something was wrong.”

As soon as Meng Fugui finished speaking, Yin En shook his head and said: "But I don't think Luo Tiedan and his wife were in a hurry when they left. Not only did they pack their clothes, they also took away all the chickens, ducks and geese at home. , and the whole process did not make much noise. You must know that those chickens, ducks and geese are noisier than the last one; the most important thing is that there are more than ten chickens, ducks and geese. The weight is not light, and it is not A backpack can hold it, so I think Luo Tiedan and his wife may have been prepared for it."

Liu Xing rubbed his nose, nodded and said: "Anyway, the culprit of all this should be Luo Tiedan's wife, so Luo Tiedan must have lied to us before, and what we know about him The wife's information should be all false! So the question is, what is Luo Tiedan's wife doing this for? She left Tianshui Town in just a few days? Could it be that she was also a subordinate of the former prince, and came here this time? Is the purpose of coming to Tianshui Town just to find out the news? Then it won’t cause so many troubles, right? "

Just as Yin En was about to say something, he started to cough due to the smell, which made Liu Xing want to cough twice as well.

At this time, Yu Lei also came over with Xia Fei, "Gongzi Ying has already sent people to inquire about the situation, so Apeng, you only need to send people to check the situation in the north. That is, the Earth-Escape Beast has fallen." The place below; because the size of the underground beast is really big, so we can only choose to use local materials and take away all the useful things from the underground beast, but we also leave such a large piece of meat. Bones may indeed attract certain beasts."

After hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing subconsciously felt the wind direction at this time and found that the wind was indeed blowing from the north.

Could this be the smell left by the escaping beast?

Since Yu Lei said so, he must have known that Liu Xing and others would think so, so he said in advance: "This smell may be related to the earth-escape beast, but this possibility is actually not high, because at this time Although the earth-diving beast has turned into a skeleton, this skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so it can already intimidate those ordinary beasts; and other monsters passing by will not be interested in it. This is because most Warcraft do not have night vision capabilities like bat wolves, and secondly, the conflicts between Warcraft basically come from the competition for territory, and it is rare for one Warcraft to prey on another Warcraft."

Hearing this, Liu Xing suddenly thought of the four-winged giant eagle, because it might be a strange thing among Warcraft. After all, it might be the only scavenger among Warcraft.

So is there a possibility that when the four-winged giant eagle passed through Tianshui Town in the evening, it discovered the existence of the bones and meat of the Earth-Escape Beast brand, so it made the bones and meat more "flavorful". Waited several hours for your meal?

Although this guess is a bit outrageous, Liu Xing feels that it is also the most reliable guess at present. After all, if you exclude other possibilities, no matter how incredible and inexplicable the remaining possibilities are, it is also the truth of the matter. .

And Liu Xing has also heard that scavengers have relatively loud breath. After all, the food they eat has been fully fermented, and they usually don't brush their teeth or rinse their mouths, so it is normal to have bad breath.

Is this the truth of the matter?

Thinking of this, Liu Xing said to Lei: "To be on the safe side, let's go to the location where the escaping beast fell to check. However, there are still two villagers missing. We have reason to suspect that they may be related to this It’s related to the sudden smell, so I’m asking Brother Xia to take a few people to investigate this matter.”

As soon as Xia Fei nodded, Yin En stepped forward to be his guide and took him to Luo Tiedan's home to see if he could find other clues.

As for Liu Xing, he and Yu Lei went to the location where the Earth-Escape Beast fell, or Yu Leiti slipped Liu Xing all the way.

At this time, Liu Xing once again wanted to learn Qing Gong because it was so useful.

When Liu Xing and his two men arrived at their destination, they saw that the Earth-Evading Beast had disappeared, not even a single bone was left.

"What? There is really someone. No, it should be the Warcraft that took away the bones of the Escape Beast?"

Yu Lei looked around, and then said in confusion: "If all this is man-made, then there will definitely be traces on the ground, so we can now rule out that someone else took away the bones of the Earth-Escape Beast, because this is nearby There are only traces left by us, unless these people follow the traces to the direction of Sweetwater Town first, and then find an opportunity to escape, but there is no need to do so; and we have also tested the bones of the escaping beast, and then found that These bones are not suitable for processing into weapons or armor because these bones are too brittle."

At this time, Liu Xing was certain that the bones of the earth-escape beast were taken away by the four-winged giant eagle, because as Yu Lei said, there were no other traces nearby, indicating that the earth-escape beast The bones could not have been dragged away by people or monsters; and Liu Xing noticed that the nearby grass was lodging in all directions. This may be the four-winged giant eagle that flapped its wings to land or take off. The strong wind blew these weeds to the ground.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing said: "Brother Yu, do you still remember that four-winged giant eagle that suddenly flew over when we wanted to play football in the evening? I suspect that it took away the possessions of these earth-escape beasts. Bones, because it is not small, is fully capable of taking away these bones! And because it can fly, it will not leave any traces on the ground."

Yu Lei was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, how could I have forgotten that four-winged giant eagle? It is indeed capable of doing all this, but this monster is obviously based on the eagle as a template. So what does it do with the bones of these escaping beasts? It can't be so desolate that it eats the meat left on the bones, right? Then its status in my mind may drop several notches."

Liu Xing didn't know what to say for a moment, because there were no vultures in "Liu Peng's" memory. After all, vultures generally live in high mountains and hilly areas, so they were not distributed under the third prince's rule.

"But having said that, the smell here is still as bad as ever, and the four-winged giant eagle also directly took away the bones of these escaping beasts, so this is not the source of the smell."

Yu Lei looked around, and then jumped onto a big tree. Even so, Yu Lei felt that it was not high enough, so he jumped twice on the top of the tree, and even used the big left foot to step on the right foot. trick!

I have to say that in this martial arts module, you can really jump by stepping on the left foot and the right foot.

This is unscientific!

But that's enough martial arts.

A surprised Liu Xing waited for Yu Lei to come back and asked impatiently: "Brother Yu, have you discovered anything?"

Panting, Yu Lei nodded first, and then waited for a while before speaking: "It's exactly what I thought. As long as you stand high enough, you won't be able to smell the smell! What does this mean? This means This smell is accumulated on the ground... I suddenly thought of something, that is, a few years ago, Heluo City, thousands of miles away, received a message, so Wutai led the local sects to destroy it. There is a side treachery called Baigu Cave, and there is an indescribable stench in this Baigu Cave."

"The most important thing is that I don't know why this smell comes out. You can't smell anything when you are at the entrance of the cave, but after you go in and go down a few steps, you can smell this smell, and the further down you go, the more you smell it. The smell gets worse as you walk; as the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. Logically speaking, such a strong smell should have emerged from the unobstructed cave long ago? So the martial arts platform in Heluo City specially carried out After investigation, I found that those heretics have developed a powder that can attach odors and looks like plant ash. It only takes a small amount to make all the odors in your room cling to it."

Activated carbon?

Liu Xing subconsciously thought of these three words, because Liu Xing had seen some advertisements before saying that activated carbon can remove odors. The principle is that the structure of activated carbon itself can absorb various tiny molecules, and the essence of taste is that various species molecules.

So that heretic developed activated carbon? But judging from Yu Lei's description, those powders similar to plant ash are more powerful than activated carbon in removing odors.

"So it's possible that some people used these powders to absorb a lot of odors in order to do certain things, and then found a place to scatter them after dark, so as to eliminate the smell, because No matter whether these odor-absorbed powders are burned again or buried directly in the soil, they will still emit a continuous odor!"

Having said this, Yu Lei left Liu Xing's sight in a few jumps, which shocked Liu Xing. After all, it was not dawn yet, and the moonlight was hazy because it was blocked by clouds. The most important thing is that he didn't bring a torch when he came, so Liu Xing would inevitably feel a little scared if he was left alone in this wilderness.

Fortunately, Yu Lei left quickly and came back quickly.

"We can go back. Now I've found the source of the smell and why it lingers around Sweetwater."

Yu Lei smiled, shook his head and said, "Actually, if we had checked the river channel as soon as possible, we would have discovered the source of the smell! Because I found a few suspicious small cloth bags by the river not far away. Then inside these small bags is the kind of powder I just mentioned, and those heretics call it plant ash; so if nothing unexpected happens, as I just said, there are people upstream who have used a lot of plant ash. Then in order to get rid of all the plant ash, I thought of throwing these small bags into the river."

"Since plant ash can absorb smell, if it is left idle in an open place, it can continue to emit smell. In the end, these plant ash will have no peculiar smell like ordinary plant ash. However, this process may take a long time, less than ten and a half days. It won't dissipate in a few months; but if you put these plant ash into water, the water can also isolate the odor to a certain extent, and also allow the plant ash to continuously emit the odor. This process takes about twenty About a day or so.”

"This is all data obtained by the martial arts platform in Heluo City after experiments. Of course, these data may not be completely reliable, because those guys have only done the experiment once. After all, these plant ash is really smelly. . All in all, the plant ash in this small cloth bag should correspond to the odor that can be produced in a room, or a closed space within a certain period of time, so adding up these small cloth bags should be able to deduce how big the closed space is. And when did the owners of these little bags start doing this.”

By the moonlight, Liu Xing could see that Yu Lei's expression had become very serious.

"This means that except for a few bags that hung on the riverside while flowing down the river, most of the other bags were caught by our fishing nets? That's why the smell will always stay near Tianshui Town. And it directly envelopes Tianshui Town, so we can't determine the source of the smell, after all, we are right in it!" Liu Xing said with a frown.

"I don't know the true face of Mount Lu, just because I am in this mountain."

Yu Lei sneered and said: "These guys are also very calculating. They originally wanted to use the river to send all these bags away. Even if one or two bags will be stranded when the river turns, it will not attract too many people. The river next to it needs to drift for hundreds of miles after passing through Sweetwater Town before reaching the next town. Even if the town finds these bags, it will be difficult to find the owners of these bags."

"This means that the owners of these bags may not know that there are people living in Sweetwater Town, so they deliberately put the bags into the river."
