The scarecrow walking at the end was pierced through the heart by Zuo Zixuan's arrow. He fell to the ground with a loud bang and immediately turned into a scarecrow in military uniform, scattered all over the ground.

The other scarecrows were unaware and continued walking towards the abandoned production workshop.

Ning Rong opened his eyes wide, stretched out his hand and whispered tremblingly:

"Master...Senior Sister, dead?"

Zuo Zixuan rolled her eyes and reached out to touch Ning Rong who was lying on the wall. "Senior sister is alive. The ghost you mentioned is dead."

"Yes Yes Yes……

Isn't that what I was talking about?

how did you do it? "

Commander Yang stretched his neck, looked at the straw scattered on the ground, pinched his chin with one hand, and was waiting for Zuo Zixuan's next words.

Zuo Zixuan walked to the scattered scarecrow, squatted down, reached out and pulled out the arrow.

There was a yellow talisman stuck on the arrow.

"Although I don't know what's going on and why these scarecrows have turned into human forms, I think it has something to do with this talisman."

"When a person dies, they are just corpses. What's more, if they have been dead for many years, even if you use straw to make their skin and flesh, it is still straw after all, and cannot be a real person.

I think, as long as the talisman placed at the heart is destroyed, this strange scarecrow should be completely destroyed."

Commander Yang nodded, waved his hand to call He Yi over, and said jokingly:

"You and your wife obviously live under the same roof, how come your wife is so much smarter than you?"

He Yi thought he was going to give some orders, but he called him over to tease him.

He pulled the corner of his mouth and said with a silly smile:

"Commander, don't you know that people who keep company with good people will become good? Intelligence can also be contagious...

My wife was completely infected by my cleverness."

Commander Yang wiped his face, resisted the urge to spray him with salt soda, and kicked him in the butt.

"Your wife hasn't been infected by your stupidity, so just laugh secretly. I'm really worried about your future child. If the child inherits your IQ, I don't know how unlucky he will be."

"Go, organize the people, wait until daybreak, do as your wife said, go into the abandoned production workshop, dig out the talisman paper on the chests of those things and burn it."

"Yes! Commander."

When others praised He Yi's wife for her intelligence, he was actually very happy. If Zuo Zixuan was around, he wouldn't dare to answer like that. He would have to follow others and flatter his wife.

After dawn, He Yi and his men opened the door of the abandoned production workshop.

As the door opened, what came into view were the human-shaped scarecrows arranged neatly, motionless, with their heads lowered and eyes downcast.

It looks extremely terrifying.

As a leader, He Yi should have taken the lead in charging into battle, but in fact he was very nervous, fearing that these things would suddenly move.

He didn't move, and no one else dared to move.

Zuo Zixuan ran over and handed him the bow and arrow: "Do you know how to use it to test the water by throwing stones?"

He Yi nodded and took the bow and arrow. He was very good at using this thing when he was a child.

For a while, the birds in the sky didn't dare pass by the compound for fear of being in trouble.

He Yi stood at the factory door, drew his bow and shot an arrow at the heart of the scarecrow standing in front. The scarecrow fell down with a crash, and the scarecrows next to it did not move at all.

Seeing this, he waved to the people behind him, and everyone went into the factory one after another and started working.

In just one morning, all the scarecrows turned back to their original forms.

Commander Yang not only ordered all the talismans to be burned, but also, fearing that the enemy would use these corpses to cause trouble again, he directly ordered all the corpses to be burned, leaving no corpse wrapping grass behind.

At the moment when all the corpses were burned, a huge explosion occurred in a rented courtyard in the city center.

The police investigated the scene and found two severely burned bodies in the house, with incense, candles, and some animal bones everywhere.

They suspected that the two men were performing some ritual in the house, and when they were burning incense, candles and paper, they burned something and caused the explosion.

Thick smoke billowed from the abandoned factory building. On the opposite hillside stood three men and one woman in tattered clothes.

"Who leaked the secret here?"

"We are so close. As long as we find the hidden weapons, we will succeed. Who is it?"

The woman was crying, looking at the smoke-filled factory opposite with a sinister look. She was unwilling to give up, and had been lying dormant for so many years just to help the soldiers of their island country to avenge their hatred and strike a heavy blow to China.

Over the years, everything had been going so smoothly. They had done things so covertly without exposing any trace of anything. Why had they been discovered by the Chinese soldiers at the last minute?

"I think there might be a spy among us. Otherwise, they couldn't have rushed in and destroyed our soldiers less than two days after we resurrected them.

Moreover, it seems that they also know the secret that can destroy those soldiers.

If the resurrection spell had not been destroyed with one strike, how could those soldiers, who were immortal and incompatible with water and fire, be burned?

But only ten people knew that there were talismans wrapped inside the corpse.

In addition to the four of us, there are also the deceased master and apprentice Umemura Yuto.

Of the remaining four, one is in the Zedu Military Region, one is in the municipal government, one is now in Hirosawa Island, and the other is Colonel Asato, who returned to the island country some time ago to cause trouble for Oiwa Yoritada.

Who of these four people is most likely to reveal the secret?"

The corpses in the abandoned factory had not yet burned completely when the six soldiers who were tracking the mysterious men in black cloaks in the back mountain returned.

"Reporting to the commander, the people in black last night were one woman and five men. They took off their cloaks in the woods near Wayaogou in the city center and mixed into the team that was transporting vegetables at the farmers' market.

We were clearly following them closely, but they entered the inventory room and never came out. We went in but couldn't find them either, it was as if they had just disappeared into thin air.

We searched around the area several times but couldn’t find anyone.”

The young soldier failed to complete the task and just stood there obediently, waiting for punishment from his leader.

But Commander Yang just waved his hand thoughtfully, "Got it, take people to check the factory inside and out again, and make sure there are no fish that slip through the net."

The young soldier was not punished, so he ran away and asked someone to check the factory.

The abandoned factory burned for a whole day.

The residents in the city center were curious about what was happening over there and wanted to go over and take a look.

But all the intersections leading in that direction were blocked and guarded by armed police soldiers with guns.

The brave ones went up to ask, "Comrade from the People's Liberation Army, what happened over there in the abandoned factory? Why such a big scene?"

"do not know……"

"..."

Anyway, throughout the day, whenever someone asked me, I would just answer with three words: "I don't know."

Rumors suddenly spread in the city center, with all kinds of rumors.

Zuo Zixuan and Ning Rong did not stay there all the time. They followed Commander Yang's car back to the military area in advance.

The two got off the car at the military district gate and walked back to the family compound.

"Senior Sister, you said you didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but after seeing it with your own eyes last night, you have to believe it, right?" Ning Rong asked with a proud look on his face, holding Zuo Zixuan's arm.

Zuo Zixuan was also puzzled. Could this be the legend that the end of science is metaphysics, and the end of metaphysics is theology?

After what happened last night, she was extremely puzzled as to why those scarecrows could turn into real people and come alive with just a talisman.

It is really unbelievable and incomprehensible.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the small courtyard where she had eavesdropped that day.

"Rongrong, I dug two white peony plants at the foot of that yard a few days ago. Do you know who lives in that yard?" Zuo Zixuan asked tentatively. If she hadn't passed by here today, she would have almost forgotten about it.

"Yes, Brigade Commander He's family. He Lanying was our classmate in elementary and middle school. He Lanying didn't get into high school, so she went to medical school. Now she's working as a nurse in our hospital."

Before Zuo Zixuan had a chance to ask questions, Ning Rong started talking about the general situation of the He family.

Zuo Zixuan pulled Ning Rong and stared at the yard in a daze.

She was 100% sure that the two robbers were hired by He Lanying.

But the deaths of those two people were definitely related to the Japanese. Otherwise, why would these two people go to an abandoned factory and hang themselves for no reason?

She guessed that the two men were invited there and drugged, so they were hanged there.

"Senior Sister, what are you thinking about?" Ning Rong saw Zuo Zixuan staring at the He family yard in a daze, and poked her with his elbow and asked.

"Rongrong, when I was digging white peony in the corner that day, I heard the conversation between He Lanying and her grandmother."

Zuo Zixuan told Ning Rong about the conversation she heard in the corner that day.

"What? Why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?" Ning Rong was shocked when he heard Zuo Zixuan's words and questioned her with some blame.

"Fortunately, Wen Liangbing called someone over in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Ning Rong was obviously a little angry, and his tone was not very good.

Zuo Zixuan patted Ning Rong's hand and sighed.

"Rongrong, I just happened to overhear those words, and I was the only one who heard them at the time. Everything else is just speculation and has no basis.

If I go and tell He Yi's parents that, and they come directly to their house to accuse me, He Lanying and her grandmother will deny it and accuse me of slandering them, and then they will bite me back. How can I and He Yi's parents save face?

You are a soldier, you should know that slandering senior officers and destroying the internal unity of the army will result in a sentence. "

Ning Rong was silent. Not to mention that He Yi's parents would rush to the He family to question him after hearing this, even he wanted to rush in to He Lanying to question her after hearing this.

"It's really surprising that He Lanying actually has a crush on He Yi. If I tell this to anyone in the class, no one will believe it."

“Why doesn’t anyone believe it?”

"From elementary school to junior high school, He Lanying was completely invisible. She was the kind of person that would be forgotten by the class when they were on duty.

She looks very ordinary, the kind that you can hardly find in a crowd.

He Yi and she are completely at two extremes.

That guy has been the leader of the class since he was young. He is naughty and mischievous, and wherever there is trouble, he is there.

I'm afraid these two never spoke a word to each other from elementary school to junior high school, and He Lanying has never shown any interest in He Yi.

However, He Yi's face really fascinated many girls both inside and outside the school.

You don't know that when the news of He Yi's marriage came out, not only the outside world, but also our military art troupe burst into tears. "

"Tsk tsk tsk, don't say it, after analyzing it this way, you really have a lot of rivals in love..."

Zuo Zixuan: “…”

It turned out to be exactly as I had guessed.

To escape or not to escape?

Zuo Zixuan returned home with a heavy heart. As soon as she entered the door, the two soft and sweet little guys rushed into Zuo Zixuan's arms like little cannonballs, calling "Mom, Mom..." non-stop.

Tang Yan was so angry that she pulled the rope and almost strangled her rebellious son to death.
