Chapter 12 Inner Sect Assessment! Tangkou Village!
However, Elder is very convinced of this. As a Practitioner, it is appropriate to be cautious and keep a hole card, so that it can be saved at a critical moment.
“Okay, you do have the strength to train at the seventh level, so it’s perfectly fine to take part in the inner disciple’s assessment.”
Restraining his mood, the elder nodded with satisfaction, approving Tang Jie’s qualifications to become an inner disciple.
Tang Jie was slightly overjoyed, but he also knew that becoming an inner disciple was not that simple, and he had to pass the assessment given by Sect.
Sure enough, the Fa Chuan Elder reached out and grabbed it. On the table a few meters away, a scroll flew over. He handed the scroll to Tang Jie: “This is an assessment task given by the sect. If you complete it, you will become an inner disciple. , get a reward of 10,000 Contribution Points, and have the authority of inner disciple.”
“Thank you Elder.”
Tang Jie took the scroll, and without looking at it immediately, he thanked him.
“Well, be careful yourself, many of the inner disciple’s assessments are not low.”
Teaching the Dharma Elder warned Tang Jie.
The inner disciple’s assessment is not low, and it is not uncommon for many disciples to fall during this assessment!
Dongyunzong Inner Sect, as long as the real elite!
Tang Jie left the teaching hall with the scroll.
Back in the yard where he lived, Tang Jie opened the scroll and checked the contents of the tasks recorded in the scroll.
“According to the information, nearly ten people have been missing in Tangkou Village recently. This sect suspects that it is the work of the Demon Sect Practitioner or demon! Mission content: Go to Tangkou Village and investigate the cause.”
There is very little information recorded on the scroll. Go to a place called Tangkou Village to investigate the missing person in Tangkou Village.
This Tangkou Village is a remote village one or two hundred miles away from Dongyunzong. Some days ago, someone from Tangkou Village came to Dongyunzong to ask for help, and this task fell on Tang Jie.
“Tangkou Village? Nearly ten people are missing?”
Putting the scroll together, Tang Jie pondered slightly.
Some people are missing, there are many possibilities, it may be man-made, such as human traffickers or something. At the end of this year, it is not uncommon to sell living people and slaves, and it may even be done by demons!
“In any case, you have to be careful, life first, task second!”
Tang Jie secretly said, in short, go to Tangkou Village to investigate and find out.
In the afternoon, Tang Jie set off for Tangkou Village. With his tutorial, he arrived at Tangkou Village when the sun rose the next day.
“This Tangkou Village is really remote.”
Tang Jie frowned, because this Tangkou Village is located in a barren forest, and there is no shop in front of the village or behind, no wonder it is so desolate and inaccessible.
Tang Jie was walking in the deserted forest, he saw the smoke rising in the distance, he immediately moved towards the smoke.
Not long after, a small village appeared in front of Tang Jie’s eyes.
The outside of this small village is surrounded by wooden fences. Judging from the number of houses, Tangkou Village has no more than 200 residents. Outside Tangkou Village, there are still some fields, which can be self-sufficient.
At the entrance of Tangkou Village, there are several young people holding sickles, sticks and hoes.
Seeing Tang Jie approaching, a young man immediately said with great vigilance: “Who are you? We don’t welcome outsiders in Tangkou Village!”
During this period of time, people in Tangkou Village continued to disappear, which also made people in Tangkou Village vigilant and patrolled day and night.
Tang Jie said kindly: “Everyone, I’m a Practitioner of the nearby East Cloud Sect, and I’m here to help you.”
“East Cloud Sect?”
“Practitioner?”
When these people heard this, they were both surprised and delighted.
They have heard of Dongyunzong near their village, and they are the number of Martial Dao Sects in the Lingnan area!
But Tang Jie’s young appearance made them doubt Tang Jie’s ability.
“Young heroes of the East Cloud Sect, please come in!” At this time, an old man with white hair and white beard walked out of the village. He very enthusiastically invited Tang Jie to enter Tangkou Village.
“The village head.” The rest of the people were extremely respectful when they saw the white-bearded old man. This white-bearded old man was the village head of Tangkou Village.
Entering Tangkou Village, the residents in the village are extremely afraid of Tang Jie, but also full of curiosity.
Tang Jie glanced at these people in the village, and then he said to the white-bearded old man: “The people in your village are missing, what happened?”
Hearing the words, the white-bearded old man said with a hint of fear on his face: “This… we don’t know.”
“I don’t know?” Tang Jie frowned. To solve the matter in Tangkou Village, he had to know what was going on, but the white-bearded old man couldn’t tell?
The white-bearded old man hurriedly said: “The missing people in our village all disappeared out of thin air. According to what the villagers said, they just blinked and found that their own relatives and friends disappeared in place… Is it haunted?”
“There are no ghosts in this world!” Tang Jie said angrily, of course, he didn’t dare to say so full, this world can’t be handled with common sense.
“Disappeared out of thin air? Could it be done by demons?”
Tang Jie thought about it, and made people disappear out of thin air. This method, as far as Tang Jie knows, the magical power mastered by demon may be able to do it.
And if it was done by demons, this task would be trickier, but as long as it wasn’t an acquired demon, Tang Jie wouldn’t be too afraid!
Demons who make trouble in such a small mountain village should not be a powerful character.
But if this demon is not something Tang Jie can deal with, he will run for his life immediately!
The last time I fought with demon was because of Tang Jie’s father, but now it’s just a mission.
“Then I’ll stay in Tangkou Village for the time being.”
Tang Jie told the white-bearded old man that he decided to live in the village first to see the situation.
“Okay, thank you Shaoxia for your help!” The white-bearded old man nodded again and again.
Then, under the arrangement of the white-bearded old man, Tang Jie lived in Tangkou Village.
According to Tang Jie’s observation, everyone in the village looked preoccupied, and they all avoided Tang Jie and did not want to approach him, which made Tang Jie keep an eye on him.
In the blink of an eye, it was the third day that Tang Jie came to Tangkou Village. During these three days, Tangkou Village seemed very calm, and there was no such thing as the so-called living person disappearing out of thin air.
And that night, in the room where the village chief lived, the window was suddenly blown open by a gust of wind, and in the darkness, the silhouette of a man in black was faintly reflected.
This made the village chief tremble and wanted to shout.
But a cold and faint voice sounded in the village chief’s ear: “Do you want to call that Eastern Cloud Sect disciple? Do you think he can deal with me?”
The village chief stopped the urge to shout, and he said weakly: “What do you want? I can give you this life, I just ask you not to do anything to other people. Our Tangkou Village is indisputable in the world. I just want to live in peace.”
The man in black outside the window said: “In your village for the past ten years, you have been obedient, and I have restrained myself, but this time you have called people from the Eastern Cloud Sect. I should have killed all of you, but I have always been kind, this time… I will only kill the Eastern Cloud Sect Practitioner, you help me take him down, I will leave Tangkou Village, and you can continue your peaceful life.”*
