Chapter 629
Lin Yang finally realized something was wrong, and said, "Old man, are you hiding something? What kind of event is being held in your town!"
Everyone was silent.
After a while, a person said: "Yang Chenggong, the richest man in our town, thought it was a ghost. He thought about using sacrifices to eliminate the disaster."
"Sacrifice?!"
Lin Yang suddenly had a bad feeling.
"Yes, sacrifice."
A powerful voice suddenly came out.
A middle-aged man in a suit came out.
The middle-aged man in front of him is Yang Chenggong, the richest man in the town.
"Because there are too many missing people, I invited the witch to come over."
Yang Chenggong said seriously, "The sorceress said that there are too many ghosts in the town, resulting in too much resentment, and the evil spirits are unwilling to leave the town, so they arrested many people as substitutes."
"The witch suggested giving these evil spirits some babies, preferably newborns, so that they can leave the town and no one will go missing."
Zhang Tao said in amazement: "Don't you know that this kind of thing is against the law? It's not ancient times, you don't go to the relevant departments, you mess up some festivals, and you want to mutilate babies, don't you feel uneasy about your conscience?"
"If the witch is not invited, the town may be destroyed."
Yang Chenggong looked at Zhang Tao with disdain, and said: "Outsiders, don't talk too much, you don't understand our difficulties at all."
"But there are difficulties, you shouldn't use baby sacrifices, you will be punished by law!"
Zhang Tao said angrily.
"If you want to speak out, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave!"
Yang Chenggong said threateningly.
"Where is your event location? Can you show us there?"
Lin Yang stopped Zhang Tao and asked politely.
"It's over there, if you want to see it, come here."
Yang Chenggong pointed to an open space ahead.
Lin Yang and Zhang Tao looked forward, and there were three pillars standing in the middle of the open space, and the table was covered with flowers and some symbols.
Next to the three pillars is a witch.
To be honest, in an instant, Lin Yang had the feeling of time travel.
People surrounded the open space, and Zhang Tao didn't know what to say.
People wear modern clothes, but do ancient things.
This is beyond his comprehension.
Lin Yang saw two young people walking over, holding a newborn baby.
The baby is very cute, babbling and crying.
Suddenly, there was a heartbroken cry from the crowd.
A woman shouted with disheveled hair: "Yang Chenggong! You have killed my son with the title of strange power and chaos, and I will never let you go forever!"
"Everyone stay still."
Lin Yang said coldly.
The voice was as cold as an ice cellar, even scaring Zhang Tao.
"what are you doing?"
Yang Chenggong shouted angrily.
"What are you doing? Catch you!"
Lin Yang didn't talk nonsense, and didn't even look at him.
"You go and deal with these ordinary things, and I'll take care of Yang Chenggong and the sorceress."
Lin Yang said lightly.
After all, Lin Yang cast a spell to set up an enchantment to control everyone in one place.
"We won't hurt you. We just want to know the truth of the matter. You don't want to kill babies every day, right? I hope you will cooperate so that we can find out the truth."
"Okay, okay, we are also forced, those are all creatures!"
After seeing Lin Yang's spells, everyone calmed down immediately.
This kind of voice chirping came out.
"Where did you invite the witch?"
"who are you?"
Yang Chenggong never thought that Lin Yang could hold him in place.
"answer my question!"
Lin Yang said coldly: "If you don't answer, you will die!"
"I invited you here."
In the blink of an eye, the surprised expression on Yang Chenggong's face disappeared.
"Where did you invite them?"
Lin Yang continued to ask.
"This is a secret, I can't tell."
"Humph!"
Lin Fan sneered and said, "I advise you to speak out as soon as possible to avoid suffering."
"All the problems that happened here are caused by evil spirits. If we don't kill the evil spirits of the baby festival, there will be accidents."
Yang Chenggong said with an innocent expression: "This is also a helpless act."
"I'm warning you, it's a crime for you to arrest people at will. I don't need to pursue this matter, and you'd better stop meddling in your own business."
Yang Chenggong warned: "This is our town's own business. Why do you, an outsider, want to get involved?"
"Because of emotion and reason, it is impossible for me to be a bystander and watch you kill creatures!"
"I don't want to harm living beings either, but the sorceress said so. There are too many wronged souls here, so I have to do this. How can you, an ordinary person, understand? Are you more powerful than the sorceress? You really think of yourself as a god." ah."
Yang Chenggong dismissed it.
Lin Yang turned to look at the others, and said, "Everyone is suspected now, and I can't let anyone go, even if you are really innocent."
"I hope you can cooperate well, catch the murderer behind the scenes as soon as possible, and restore everyone's peace."
Lin Yang said righteously.
The crowd gradually quieted down.
"Okay, I trust you."
The crowd was silent for a long time before a voice came out.
Not long after, Lin Yang opened the barrier.
"Thank you for your cooperation."
Lin Yang said solemnly, "We will definitely do our best to find the truth, catch the real culprit behind the scenes, and give you a fair one."
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yang withdrew the spell and signaled everyone to go home first.
Lin Yang was going to ask people from house to house, lest some of them collude.
An old man came out from the crowd and said to everyone: "It's all gone, what should you do, don't go out at night."
After a while, there were not many people left in the open space.
That night, Lin Yang and Zhang Tao stayed at the home of an old man.
The next day, Lin Yang got up and started going door to door asking about the details of the missing persons.
Last night, Lin Yang briefly asked the old man and counted the number of people.
Which families in the town have missing relatives and how long this has been going on.
Not long after, Lin Yang knocked on the door of a family.
The family's wife has disappeared.
The male host has a vicissitudes of life, and his face is covered with beards.
The inexplicable disappearance of his wife was a great blow to him.
Just go out to dry clothes, and then people never come back.
It is unacceptable to put it in anyone's house.
"Sir, I would like to ask about your wife, may I?"
"come in."
The middle-aged man opened the door and gestured sideways for Lin Yang and Zhang Tao to enter.
"What do you want to know?"
the middle-aged man asked.
"When did your wife disappear? Can you tell us about it?"
Zhang Tao glanced at Lin Yang, and continued to ask the middle-aged man, trying to find clues.
"That was more than a month ago."
The middle-aged man's eyes revealed a look of reminiscence.
