I practice the Tao by blind practice

Chapter 252 Help
After being slightly taken aback, Chen Hai came back to his senses, and he quickly invited Ye Cheng and the others to the living room of the other courtyard.

"Brother Cheng, Qingqing and I are engaged, you don't have time to go to Yangcheng, why are you free today, come to my place?"

"Could it be that you want to send some bodyguards and drivers to my yard to guard?"

Poured a cup of hot tea for several people in Yecheng.

Chen Hai's eyes glanced a few more times at the serious-faced soldiers who followed Ye Cheng.

He chuckled and joked to a few people.

Last year, in order to prevent his sister from having a private meeting with Chen Hai, Ye Cheng sent Tian Mingjian here to stay by Chen Hai's side all day long.

But now, Tian Mingjian has retired from the army, instead of serving the country, he joined Chen Hai's command instead.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Ye Cheng felt quite resentful.

He glared at Chen Hai fiercely, and responded angrily: "You boy, it doesn't count if you kidnap my sister, I sent a subordinate to follow you, how long has passed, and he didn't even become an officer, Are you determined to work for you?"

"I really don't know, where does your charm come from!"

"You and Qingqing are already married, so I'm too lazy to care about your two affairs. If you want to trick my subordinates, there's no way!"

While speaking, he also had a strange expression on his face, sizing up Chen Hai for a while.

In terms of appearance, Ye Cheng felt that Chen Hai was definitely not as good as himself.

In terms of family background, there is a huge difference between Chen Hai and himself!

Ye Cheng really couldn't figure it out, why would his younger sister be so devoted to such a person?

"No one sent me to help? That's fine!"

Uncompromising, Chen Hai shrugged and said with a smile.

What he said just now was just casually speaking. If Ye Cheng nodded and sent some people over to follow him, it would only make him feel troublesome!

"Brother Cheng, you came here today because you knew that Qingqing was coming back, so you came here specially to have a light meal together?"

Glancing at Ye Cheng, and then at the soldiers who were with him, Chen Hai pointed to the apron that he had not taken off, and said, "I have already cooked the rice, but as for the dishes, I only cooked one." !"

"It shouldn't be long before Qingqing will come back here."

"How about, Brother Cheng, you and these brothers, sit in the living room first, and come over to accompany everyone after I finish the meal..."

While speaking, his hand was greasy, and he even wiped it on his apron.

No way, when Ye Cheng and the others came over, he was cutting pork and preparing to make braised pork.

He thought it was Qingqing who came back, but he never thought that it would be his uncle Ye Cheng who came.

When welcoming them out, Chen Hai just rinsed his hands that had just grabbed pork, and didn't have time to wash them carefully.

"What's the food for? We came here to see you on business!" He gave Chen Hai a supercilious look, and Ye Cheng looked at the people around him.

After nodding his head, he continued, "You bastard, I know you are capable and know some strange things."

"I just want to know, is there any way for you to search for some kind of existence in the mountains and forests with a radius of tens of miles..."

After Ye Cheng's words fell, it wasn't just him, but the serious-looking soldiers who were with him also set their eyes on Chen Hai.

"Searching for what? Fugitives?" Wei Wei was taken aback, and Chen Hai asked casually.

"It's not wrong to say that it's catching fugitives!" Ye Cheng nodded.

After a slight pause, he continued to add: "The fugitive we want to catch is a bit extraordinary."

"Whether it's infrared or thermal imaging, this kind of auxiliary equipment can't scan the shadow of that thing at all."

"At night, he walked like flying, shuttling through the mountains and forests. There were already two families nearby, and he wiped out all of them."

"In the name of an exercise, that forest has been blocked by us."

"The bullet doesn't seem to pose much threat to him. Last night, that thing appeared again. Two of our soldiers died at his hands!"

"But when it was daytime, we didn't know where he was hiding. Thousands of us searched the forest several times, but we couldn't find him at all."

"We came here to see you, Chen Hai. Is there any way to find the trace of that thing during the daytime!"

……

With a serious look on his face, Ye Cheng roughly told Chen Hai what happened to them.

To be honest, the thing in his mouth had already appeared before the new year.

At the beginning, it was just a few nearby families whose chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs were robbed and killed in the stables.

But at that time, those villagers didn't think too much about it. They just thought that there were some ferocious beasts coming from here.

It wasn't until later, after the two families were wiped out, that the higher-ups began to pay attention to this matter.

Ye Cheng's army is the garrison of the capital.

If the matter wasn't too serious and out of control, they wouldn't have dispatched them at all to seal off all the mountains and forests.

"Brother Cheng, what exactly does that thing you're talking about look like?"

"Some people have already lost their lives because of this. Logically speaking, when that thing haunts, there should be witnesses, right?"

Chen Hai's brows also began to wrinkle tightly.

If someone else came to him because of this matter, he probably wouldn't be interested in meddling in other people's business at all.

After all, although he is not sure yet, what exactly is that thing in Ye Cheng's mouth!
But just hearing what he said, Chen Hai felt troubled!
Now, although his soul is powerful, his main body is still a mortal body.

If he encounters something difficult to deal with, he will intervene rashly, and if he is not careful, he will put himself in danger.

But now, the one who found him was Ye Cheng, the uncle.

If he doesn't look at the monk's face and see the Buddha's face, even if he looks at his fiancée's face, it is impossible for Chen Hai to ignore his request for help.

"During the day, that thing doesn't appear, and at night, the vision is blurred."

"Among our soldiers, those who have seen that thing appear are mostly far away, and can only see a black shadow."

"Soldiers who were at a closer distance saw what that thing looked like, and at the same time, that thing had already jumped on them."

"Under such a situation, it is impossible for our people to survive!"

With a bitter look on his face, Chief Ye sighed.

He didn't even have time to go back to participate in his own sister's engagement banquet. The main reason was that he couldn't get away because of that thing.

Last night, although they only killed two soldiers, during the time when they blocked the mountain forest, there were already more than a dozen or twenty people who died.

When that thing does not appear, there is no shadow at all.

Knowing that he will come and go at night, but his time of going and going is not regular at all.

Sometimes, he would only appear once every week or so, and sometimes, he would appear again every three or five days.

When the interval is the shortest, it is not impossible for him to appear suddenly after a day or two.

Faced with this situation, Ye Cheng and the others had nothing to do except to seal off the forest so that it could not harm ordinary people.

As for the cannon fire washing the ground, completely destroying those dozens of miles of mountains and forests?

The movement is too big, and the impact is a bit bad.

After all, the mountain forest is located near the outskirts of Kyoto, and it is not in an uninhabited deep mountain forest.

Today is a peaceful age, and the bombardment that is really going to happen can easily cause some panic.

There is no such thing as a dead end, no one is willing to issue such an order if it is really forced to do so.

"If that thing is really hidden in that forest, with the help of divination, maybe I can figure out its approximate location."

"However, I have no idea what that mountain forest looks like."

"If you want the results of my divination to be more accurate, I must go there in person and take a good look!"

Frowning, after a moment of contemplation, Chen Hai spoke.

In his opinion, that thing hides during the day and appears at night, most likely because he is afraid of the sun.

That being the case, then the place where he hid during the day must be a place where Yin energy gathers.

Will his divination skills be disturbed when it comes to this obviously inhuman existence?Whether he can figure out anything, he is actually not fully sure.

The reason why he proposed to go to that mountain forest to see it was because the divination technique would fail if it was disturbed.

Perhaps, with the help of geomancy, he can check the place where the Yin Qi gathers in that area.

Of course, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Knowing that he doesn't have much strength in his body, he will definitely try to avoid it as much as possible and let his body get involved in dangerous places.

"I knew it, if you want to find out the whereabouts of that thing, Chen Hai, you must have a way!"

"If it wasn't for this period of time, when I was stationed in that forest all the time, I didn't know that you had returned to the capital, I would have come to you for help a long time ago!"

"You are my brother-in-law-to-be, and I'm not being polite to you. Come on, you come with me to the forest side now!"

Hearing Chen Hai's words, the eyes of Ye Cheng and the others obviously brightened.

Without giving him a chance to refuse, Ye Cheng pulled him and prepared to walk outside the other courtyard.

"Brother Cheng, let's go now, in such a hurry?"

"Your sister came back today, and the meal I specially prepared for her was only half done!" Chen Hai yelled with dissatisfaction.

"Nonsense, human life is greater than the sky, can I not be in a hurry?"

"That thing appeared last night, but who knows if he will appear again tonight."

"One more day of delay, maybe a few more people will die."

"My sister's place, don't worry, I'll explain it to her clearly!"

……

Pulling Chen Hai and stuffing him into a military vehicle outside, Ye Cheng waved his hand, the vehicle started and sped forward.
