Demon Sage Chapter 52

The night was spent in meditation, and the study in the spiritual world failed to return to its original state. Although the devil did not appear, the erosion continued.

Can church baptism really solve this problem?

Donald is a little skeptical. In case they can't do it, 50 gold pounds is not a small amount... Will it be time to try a ceremony that costs hundreds of gold pounds?

The next morning, Sherlock still maintained his habit of getting up at 7:30. According to him, this is called the law of life, which is good for the body.

I told the housekeeper about going to the town in advance, and old Hobo was waiting outside in a donkey cart.

Breakfast was too late to sit down and enjoy it slowly. Donald drank the milk from the quilt in one gulp, followed Sherlock out with a piece of bread in his hand.

"Mr. Hooper, take us directly to the church in the town. By the way, which church does the church in the town belong to?"

When the tarpaulin was lifted, the rain turned into a drizzle after a night, and there was no cover on the donkey cart, so we could only rely on umbrellas.

"It belongs to the Resurrection Church."

"Okay, it's good to revive the church."

If it is said that the Righteous Church has a close relationship with the official government, then most of the farmers and pastors at the bottom believe in the goddess of the earth, Chauntia, the **** of the resurrection church.

"Where is it?"

Donald was a little puzzled. Regarding the resurrection of the church, he only knew that because of the teachings, there were few of their churches in the cities, and most of them were built in the townships.

"Revival Church has always advocated peace and friendliness. Even non-believers will maintain a friendly attitude. I will have a much higher success rate in asking them for something... Forgot to tell you, what you have to do later is Go to the medicine store, grocery store in town and ask Miss Audrey if she has bought some materials from them."

"Material? Sherlock, can you tell me something? If you ask in such a vague way, you might miss key information."

Adjusting the seats, they were closer to Sherlock, and the edges of their umbrellas were placed together.

"Well, this is just a discussion between me and you, no third person can know... The monster we met last night was called in some books: blood beast, this monster is strictly speaking They do not exist in our world, but they are closely related to a special race. I won't go into details. The key is that they appear as hunters of blood. In short, they are bitten by them. Dead creatures, blood will be sucked, blood beasts feed on blood, but if they want, they can also collect this blood, store it in their own bodies, and then undergo some such and such changes to form a kind of blood called ' The existence of blood crystals has a great effect. It is recorded in the book that a nobleman once summoned several blood beasts through evil methods, relying on them to enshrine the 'blood crystals' and maintain a long youth... Even changing his appearance!"

Legends often come from exaggerated adaptations of some real events. The story about the Scarlet Earl told by Sherlock is widely circulated in this world. There are two points that people pay attention to. The first is the existence of blood beasts, and the second is natural It's the effect of staying youthful.

"You mean Miss Audrey... Summoning blood beasts?"

"It's just speculation, that's why I asked you to go to these stores to find clues, and there are still many questions that have not been resolved, such as how did she have a way to summon a blood beast? That is a taboo ceremony, if it is discovered by the church, the stake will not be There is no room for refutation, besides, why is the blood beast attacking cattle and sheep? If people use 'blood crystals', they must be formed from the blood of the same race to work."

"What happens to different races?"

At this time, Donald didn't bother to ask why Sherlock knew so many strange things. If there was such information in the book, he would definitely find a few books to study it in the future.

"Inject the blood of cattle and sheep into your body, what do you think will happen?"

"die?"

"No, it's worse than that..."

The "blood crystal" formed by the blood brewed by the blood beast will become something that the human body can accept, which means that the human body accepts the blood of cattle and sheep.

This kind of behavior is equivalent to pouring soy sauce into lemonade, and the mixed drink can take people to the hospital!

Near Ranfindor Farm is a small town called Wheat Valley. It is not small in scale. Although it is much worse than Preston City, it is not enough and more than the next. For some small villages nearby, This is already a town with a slightly urban appearance.

"Two gentlemen, here we are."

The donkey cart drove directly into the town of Maigu and stopped on the side of the street.

"Excuse Mr. Hooper to take me to church. You can leave here. At 8 o'clock, most of the shops are open."

Donald got up and jumped out of the donkey cart, carefully avoiding the pond beside his feet. Now the clothes and shoes on him are not his own.

The donkey cart stopped in front of a carving shop. This is not a shop to ask about, and the number of grocery stores and medicinal herb stores Donald really went to was not as many as he imagined, especially the latter. There are all raw materials that have not been thought through, and the corresponding market is so large that this type of store is destined to not open more.

So after asking people who went out to inspect farmland in the mornings, Donald decided to start with the herbal store.

There were three medicinal herb stores in the entire Maigu town, and the second one responded.

"Miss Audrey? I've been here. About a week ago, she went to my store to buy some medicinal herbs. She bought a lot of medicinal materials. She asked for several portions of each type. People in the town only need a few ounces each time. So I'm very impressed with her, you ask me what to do with this? Could it be that Miss Audrey wants to buy it again?"

The store manager chose some medicinal herbs that had just been delivered, and looked at Donald expectantly.

"I want to know what the medicinal herbs that Miss Audrey bought before. You are the store manager. You should be familiar with this kind of thing, right?"

Audrey Bartley purchased more than one medicinal material here. As long as there is a combination, as a store manager, he always knows a little about pharmacology.

"Well, my memory..."

The hand that selected the herbs stopped, and the **** twisted each other.

"Understood, this is a reward."

Put a penny on the counter.

"It's about privacy..."

not enough.

"how about this?"

Add a penny.

"Oh, I seem to remember something, but I still feel a little bit worse. What do you think?"

This is insatiable greed.

"Do you like it or not?"

Grab the coins and go out. I'm not the person handling the case, so why don't I get a penny and still put money inside?

"Wait, I remember!"

2p is also money.

"Conditioning women's physiology....Is that so?"

After listening to the store manager's analysis, the final result is that Miss Audrey arrives on those days of the month and needs to buy some medicinal herbs to make up.

"Yes, this shop was handed down by my grandfather. I grew up here. I know the functions of most of the medicinal herbs in the shop. The herbs that Miss Audrey buys are all herbs for activating blood and nourishing blood. Generally speaking, only blood loss Too many people will need it, and she is not injured, so it can only be for conditioning her body."

"What did you just say? The effects of those herbs..."

Captured the sensitive words in the store manager's words and confirmed them again.

"Blood-activating and blood-tonifying are common medicinal materials, so I won't admit it wrong. I also told her that the amount should not be too large, otherwise it would be a problem if the effect is too good."

"Thank you for your help, this information is very important."

Write down what the store manager said in the notebook. According to Sherlock, blood beasts condense into "blood crystals" for ordinary people to swallow. Maybe this type of blood-activating medicinal materials are needed to assist and speed up the distribution of the effect.

The third medicinal herb store did not yield any results. Miss Audrey only went to one store.

Then there is the grocery store, which is still a question from one family to another.

"Miss Audrey didn't see it, but other people from the Ranffindor farm have been there... Mr. Aldridge, I remember him, because he asked for something special, it wasn't in the store at the time, it was me Picked it up from Mr. Thane's house in town, and spent a full six shillings."

"Six shillings? What is so expensive?"

Donald estimated in his mind that the monthly salary of the farm workers, excluding room and board, should be around 15 shillings. The owner took 6 shillings and sold them. It should not be the original price. Nearly half of the monthly salary, UU reading www.uukanshu. com This is a grocery store, not a jewelry store.

"The wild goat horn, more than five years old, this is not an ordinary thing. It is rare in the whole town. Mr. Sein is a famous hunter in the town. The goat he hunted in the mountains before, the horns are gray and black. Yes, tsk tsk...it's not the same as the domestic ones."

"Did he say what he was going to do?"

"Decoration, that's what he said, although I don't know what's so beautiful about this goat horn, but he's willing to pay, of course I'm willing to sell it."

For decoration? I'm afraid it's just an excuse, these farm workers all live together, the house is unified, to say that the middle class people in order to adjust their lives, give the house wildness to buy a hanging, Donald letter, a farm worker, spend half a month's salary , buy a wild goat horn, and then spend money to carve it?

Of course, Donald can't rule out that Aldridge has this hobby, art, regardless of the high or the low. Let's write it down for the moment, and then go back to the Ranffindor farm and check it again.

"Mr. Grant, I don't think you need to ask me. Look, isn't that Mr. Aldridge? If you have any questions, just ask him directly."

"what?"

Turning around, Donald only saw the corners of his clothes flashing outside the store. He rushed out quickly, but what he saw was a figure running wildly in the rain, running more than ten meters, and got on his horse.

Aldridge!

"Sorry, he actually came to town."

Seeing that he stopped in this grocery store, turned around and left, if there was no ghost in his heart, what would he be afraid of?

And he came here specially on horseback. It is very likely that he and Sherlock came to the small town of Wheat Valley to catch up after learning that he and Sherlock came to the town of Wheat Valley in the Ranfindor farm.

The wild goat horns of these 5 years are definitely hidden.
