The two stared at each other in silence for a long while before Wang Dayong tentatively asked.
"Brother, how many did you kill in total?"
Jiang Xiao frowned and thought for a moment, then said that there were less than a hundred, maybe around eighty, or perhaps more than ninety.
Wang Dayong: "?"
Upon hearing this news, his legs immediately went weak.
Holy crap?
Nearly a hundred were killed in just one night?
If I remember correctly, this freak wasn't able to kill the weirdo with brute force before, right?
At that time, at best, he made Gui Tong wish he were dead, suffering unbearable pain.
It's only been a few months since we last met, and Jiang Xiao's style has become so wild and unconventional?
"Uh, you're too ruthless! Didn't you leave any survivors for us weirdos?" Wang Dayong complained subconsciously.
"Hmm?" Jiang Xiao looked at Wang Dayong suspiciously.
"Ah no, no no no, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, if you kill all the monsters, then the warriors who come to Sunset Village won't have any missions anymore?"
"Oh, that's true, it's my fault."
Dragon Kingdom Livestream Room: ? ? ?
[No way? The schoolteacher just fooled Jiang Xiao like that?]
A mentally ill person can find reasons to believe even the most illogical things you say, and conversely, they can find reasons to refute even the most reasonable things you say.
This is so Jiang Shen.
[Speaking of which, based on the teacher's kneeling just now, I'd say he's most likely an acquaintance of Jiang Xiao, right?]
Chapter 325 Discovering clues
That's what it says.
But after all, they had hidden themselves in a black robe, and this time the outside world couldn't give them a heads-up.
Otherwise, Jiang Xiao could simply tear off this guy's robe to see who was inside.
But Jiang Xiao clearly has no intention of lifting the black robe to see who's underneath.
"Are there any other tasks?"
Wang Dayong was momentarily speechless.
"Since there's no more mission, take me to see the private school in your village, and that teacher. I don't think he's a good person. Kill him, and maybe everything will be over."
Wang Dayong: "?"
"Uh, a schoolteacher? I've been in this village for decades and I've never heard of a schoolteacher."
Wang Dayong's tone was full of innocence and ignorance.
Dragon Kingdom Livestream Room: "?"
[Holy crap, this guy has no shame at all.]
[If it were you, would you dare call yourself a schoolteacher? I'd rip your duodenum out with a peach wood sword!]
I'm genuinely curious: who is this shameless, cowardly, and utterly unscrupulous weirdo?
There are no school teachers?
"What about private schools? They should exist, right?"
Wang Dayong hesitated for a moment, then indicated that it was possible.
What does "can exist" mean?
Jiang Xiao's face darkened; he thought the man in black robes might not be very bright.
The two of them, one after the other, arrived at the so-called private school in Sunset Village.
Although it was called a private school, it was actually just a large courtyard.
In the middle is a large open space, and apart from the wall on the side with the main gate, the other three sides are all houses.
Its design is somewhat similar to the traditional courtyard houses of old Kyoto.
"Brother, this is the private school."
"No students?"
The exterior walls are new, but the interior is lifeless, giving the impression that it has been abandoned for decades.
"Uh"
Wang Dayong hesitated for a moment, then said.
"If there are no teachers, where will the students come from?"
That's true~
Jiang Xiao didn't think much about it, but he wasn't afraid either. He simply pushed open the door and went inside.
Huh?
Although there were no people inside, there were quite a few dogs.
When they saw someone coming, they all ran over in unison, making "woof woof woof" sounds.
"These dogs"
"Oh, it's been abandoned for too long. Over time, stray dogs and the like have started to make their home here."
is it?
Jiang Xiao didn't believe it and asked the man in black robes, "Don't wild dogs only find food when they're wandering around?"
Because there's a limit to the amount of trash a region can hold; once it's all gone, that's it.
For example, if a stray dog is in area A, it will go to area B after it finishes eating the leftovers in area A, and then go to area C after it finishes eating the leftovers in area B.
By this logic, stray dogs will only wander further and further away, because only in this way can they find food.
If you stay in one place, it may seem like you have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but it's impossible for you to travel thousands of miles to other places to find food every time, and then travel thousands of miles back again, right?
Furthermore, Jiang Xiao had also looked around the village and it seemed there wasn't much food for the stray dogs nearby, especially since there were far too many of them.
Worri?
How did this mentally ill person suddenly become so logical and meticulous?
The more Jiang Xiao talked, the more nervous Wang Dayong became, and he even started sweating profusely.
"Well, maybe there's plenty of food for them nearby. Dogs have a very keen sense of smell."
That makes some sense.
Here on the edge of the mountains, there is no food in the village, but there might be something near the foot of the mountain that these wild dogs can eat in a steady stream.
But what Jiang Xiao said next left him somewhat speechless.
"But why don't these dogs wag their tails?"
These stray dogs were barking and seemed quite happy, but their tails were hanging down and they didn't move at all.
"This"
Now Wang Dayong couldn't find any excuse to defend himself.
He could make an excuse if it were just one or two tailless dogs, but it's a bit unreasonable for dozens of them not to wag their tails.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiao didn't press Wang Dayong for answers. After all, in his mind, this man in black robes was just a more important NPC, so how could he possibly know everything?
"Brother, how about we stop researching for now and go find a family to have a meal with?"
Wang Dayong was worried that if he continued to let him conduct the research, he wouldn't be able to handle it anymore.
He no longer had any intention of doing anything to Jiang Xiao; he just hoped to serve him peacefully for three days and then leave.
After calculating the time, it was indeed lunchtime.
"By the way, everyone in the village eats meat, right? Honestly, it's too greasy. Do you have anything lighter?"
Normally, this isn't possible, but since you asked, we should make it happen.
Wang Dayong told Jiang Xiao to go and rest first, and he would personally prepare lunch for him, going to the mountains to get some wild vegetables and mushrooms to stir-fry.
They even thoughtfully asked Jiang Xiao if he had any dietary restrictions, whether he preferred salty or bland food, whether he liked spicy food, and if there were any vegetables he disliked.
Jiang Xiao:
The NPCs in this Sunset Village are so enthusiastic!
Dragon Kingdom Live Stream Room:
[So good to lick]
[The sheer amount of sycophancy emanating from the screen makes me increasingly curious about which sycophant is behind this.]
