In the evening, the underground secret room of the headquarters of Tsingshan Book Group.

Zhou Qingshan sat quietly by the telephone in the secret room, silently waiting.

He was waiting for a call from the Yellow Dog.

At 23:58 on December 11, there are only two minutes left before December 12, and the plan to carry the underwater coffin will begin immediately, and 1,000 divers and 1,000 escorted killers are ready to go.

Before leaving, Zhou Qingshan needed to wait for the Yellow Dog's order.

Because only the yellow dog knows what will happen to the coffin today, and only the yellow dog knows when to attack the coffin.

Quietly, the minutes passed, and two minutes passed.

The time finally came to 0:00 a.m. on December 12.

Zhou Qingshan's throat moved slightly, his breathing became short, and fine juice came out of his forehead.

After more than two years of preparation, today I am finally going to the battlefield, and I am suddenly a little nervous.

In addition to the nervousness, there is also a hint of excitement.

The Yellow Dog once said that as long as this task is completed, Zhou Qingshan can have an eternal lifespan.

"Suzu-"

The phone rang suddenly, and Zhou Qingshan immediately picked it up: "Hey, Boss Huang?"

"Lao Zhou, don't be so nervous, wipe the sweat from your forehead first. An old voice came from the phone, it was the yellow dog.

Zhou Qingshan was stunned, and quickly wiped his forehead with his shirt, his brain was equipped with a human brain connector, and the yellow dog knew his actions well, even if he was sweating.

"Mr. Huang, our people are ready, when will we leave?" Zhou Qingshan asked with concern.

"You can go now, but I would like to remind you of a few questions. "At about two o'clock in the morning today, the gravitational field of the coffin will suddenly disappear, and the entrance of the coffin will automatically open, and then you can directly enter the coffin and remove the items in the coffin." ”

"The coffin will open automatically?" Zhou Qingshan was stunned. "Aren't we going to carry the coffin?"

"This coffin weighs hundreds of tons, where can you move it?" said the yellow dog, "Our goal is to remove the contents of the coffin, as soon as the coffin is opened." You have to be the first to enter the coffin, because it only takes a few minutes for the coffin to open. ”

Zhou Qingshan suddenly realized and nodded: "It's 0:00 in the morning, without further ado, I'll set off immediately." ”

Yellow Dog reminded, "Feng Manlou may have also sent a second batch of Imperial Ninja Regiment to fight for the coffin. Be ye careful tonight. ”

Zhou Qingshan said: "Boss Huang, don't worry, the 1,000 killers of the Sun Moon Book Club are all quasi-first-class masters, and they are familiar with the water, if the Imperial Ninja Regiment goes to the water to grab the coffin, there is only a dead end......"

"Dut...... Toot ......"

Yellow Dog hung up the phone in advance, he was clear about Zhou Qingshan's situation, and he was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.

After talking on the phone, Zhou Qingshan immediately left the headquarters of Tsingshan Book Group and issued an order to all divers and killers.

The task of transporting the coffin was officially launched......

……

At night. It's an ocean of boundlessness.

On the calm sea, more than two dozen steamers set out en masse, and they were all ships of the Sun and Moon Publishing House.

When the ship reached the sea about 10 kilometers from Sun Moon Island, it suddenly stopped, and all the killers and divers on board gathered on the deck, all wearing professional black diving gear.

The ship has arrived in the sea where the coffin is located.

On the deck of a white steamer, Zhou Qingshan walked out and looked at the time, it was 0:27 in the morning.

"Did you understand tonight's mission?"

"Understood!"

"It's almost time. Act now. ”

"Yes!"

Zhou Qingshan gave an order, and 1,000 divers and 1,000 killers jumped into the sea at the same time.

Thump!

Thump!

White splashes stirred up on the surface of the sea, and all the divers and killers quickly sank and fell towards the bottom of the sea.

They have already conducted three combat exercises before. It's already in the driver's seat.

It's just that tonight's divers are not 1,000, but 1,001, and the extra diver is Liu Xing.

Liu Xing also wore a professional diving equipment and mixed in the team. Since the diving equipment is exactly the same, no one can recognize anyone. Naturally, no one found out about Liu Xing's identity.

In the dark waters, the crowd continued to sink, 1,000 divers rushed ahead, and 1,000 killers escorted them.

Dozens of minutes later, we finally arrived at the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than 2,000 meters and came to the mouth of the reef cave.

According to the predetermined plan, 1,000 divers swam into the reef cave one by one, and Liu Xing followed one diver and swam in.

In a short time, all the divers were already in the waters inside the cave, and the 1,000 killers were guarding the outside of the reef cave.

It was already 11 a.m. and there were only 49 minutes left until 2 a.m.

1,000 divers came to a position about 100 meters away from the coffin, held their breath and watched the changes.

The gravitational field of the coffin has not disappeared, and no one dares to break into it rashly.

Ten minutes later, there was a sudden movement outside the cave.

A group of Imperial Ninja Regiments suddenly emerged from the nearby waters!

It turned out that more than 800 Imperial Ninjas had been lying in ambush in the shadows on the back of the reef caves, ready to compete for the coffins at the bottom of the sea.

After the appearance of the Imperial Ninja, 1,000 killers of the Sun and Moon Books immediately attacked, and the two sides confronted each other at the bottom of the sea and a scuffle.

Since the number of the two sides is almost the same, and they are all cultivating the "Evil Warding Sword Technique", their strength is between the two and the middle, and no one can take too much advantage.

After a while, suddenly, on the east and west sides of the reef cave, two groups of unknown people jumped out, and the number was actually more than 2,000.

These unknown people come from different forces, and they are also coming for the coffin!

While the killers of the Sun Moon Book Society and the Imperial Ninja were fighting, these unknown people took advantage of the situation and swam into the reef cave in an attempt to assassinate the diver.

Most of the 1,000 divers did not know martial arts, and they immediately panicked and swam around to avoid attacks.

So, in the dark waters, you come and go, you chase me, and kill each other. The scene was extremely chaotic.

Rumble!

When it was close to two o'clock in the morning, the coffin suddenly trembled slightly, and the surrounding waters fluctuated violently, and many people were washed out of balance by the sea.

"There is a situation in the coffin!"

The fighting stopped suddenly. Many people looked in the direction of the coffin.

I saw that the huge book coffin was lit up with white brilliance, and the brilliance became more and more abundant, so dazzling that it was almost impossible to open people's eyes.

At the moment when Guanghua appeared, the strength of the gravitational field around the coffin rose sharply. The area of the gravitational field has also suddenly increased!

The gravitational field was originally only 50 meters in radius, but now it is expanding its coverage at an alarming rate.

100 meters!

300 meters!

500 meters!

The area of the gravitational field is getting larger and larger, and it spreads like an invisible shock wave towards the surrounding waters.

In the blink of an eye, the gravitational field had spread to the crowd in the melee, and the vast gravitational energy began to tear at the crowd at the bottom of the sea.

Boom!

Suddenly, a diver's diving gear burst open, and the diver's body twitched violently, and his limbs struggled desperately, a moment later. The body suddenly froze.

His eyes rolled and he stopped moving.

He's dead!

Bang!

One after another, the scuba equipment burst open like firecrackers, and the sound of popping echoes in the waters of the cave.

Unable to withstand the devastation of the gravitational field, one diver after another died, and in a matter of moments, the divers in the reef cave turned into corpses.

Not only divers, but also deep-sea fish on the bottom of the sea were not spared and died one after another. The corpse floated.

The area of the gravitational field continues to expand, and everywhere it goes, all living things are killed on the spot, and no one survives!

900 meters!

1200 meters!

1500 meters!

The gravitational field expands extremely fast. The radius has reached about 1,800 meters, spreading from the inside of the reef cave to the area of several hundred meters outside the reef cave.

As a result, the Imperial Ninja and the Sun Moon Book Club killers who were fighting were not spared.

Bang!

Their diving equipment burst open at the same time, and thousands of bodies twitched violently at the same time, and the sea water stirred.

A moment later. Everyone suddenly stopped moving, and all of them died on the spot!

Under the buoyancy of the seawater, the corpse began to slowly float up from the bottom of the sea.

In addition to human corpses, there are also various fish corpses.

Within a radius of 1,800 meters from the coffin, all living beings were wiped out and died tragically in the gravitational field.

There was a sudden silence in the sea, dead silence.

The battle came to an abrupt end.

Only the dense corpses floated upwards.

These corpses include 1,000 divers, 1,000 killers of the Sun and Moon Society, more than 800 imperial ninjas, more than 2,000 killers of unknown origin, and thousands of fish ......

In a short time, tens of thousands of corpses floated to the surface of the sea one after another, and at a glance, a large area of black pressure was pressed, and the field of vision was full of dead corpses, and the scene was shocking.

"This ......"

On the deck of the white steamer, Zhou Qingshan immediately found the dead bodies floating on the sea.

Soon, he discovers that the dead bodies are killers and divers he has sent out.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhou Qingshan tried to contact the diver and the killer, but found that no one could be contacted.

They were all dead.

Not a single live mouth.

"Why? Why is that?"

Looking at the corpses on the sea, Zhou Qingshan was anxious, he had painstakingly prepared a plan for more than two years, was it just like that?

"Who the hell did that?"

Zhou Qingshan gritted his teeth and roared, he thought that it might be the work of the Imperial Ninja of the Wind Manlou Sect, but he quickly denied this speculation.

Because among the large number of corpses floating on the sea, there are many ninjas from the Imperial Kingdom.

What's more, the Imperial Ninja Regiment does not have such a great ability to cause all the fish within a radius of a kilometer to die.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhou Qingshan's mind went blank.

"Suzu-"

His mobile phone rang suddenly, it was a call from the yellow dog!

Zhou Qingshan immediately picked up the phone, and before he could speak, the yellow dog had already spoken first: "Everyone is dead, right?"

The tone is very flat, as if asking about a trivial matter.

"Right...... I'm sorry!" Zhou Qingshan panicked and apologized in a trembling voice, "Boss Huang, I'm sorry, the mission failed! I don't know what happened." All of us died at once, and all the fish around us died......"

"You don't have to be so panicked, it's all expected, these people's deaths were originally part of the plan. The yellow dog said lightly.

"Expected?" the yellow dog frowned. Full of doubts, "What do you mean?"

Huang Dog said: "There will be a change in the coffin on December 12th, this is just a scam I set up to kill people. On December 12, the gravitational field of the coffin will increase tenfold by tens of thousands, and the area of the gravitational field will also expand dramatically. All creatures within 2,000 meters of the coffin. Surely death. ”

"Liar...... Scam?" Huang Dog was shocked in his heart, and couldn't believe his ears: "Boss Huang, did you know that our people would die at the bottom of the sea tonight?"

"Of course. Not only our people will die, but so will the people of the Imperial Ninja Regiment, and all those who know the secrets of the underwater coffin will die. ”

Yellow Dog continued, "The date of December 12 is a fake news that I secretly released three years ago, in order to trick all the enemies to the bottom of the sea, and then use the gravitational field of the book coffin to catch them. The plan went quite smoothly, with the ninja regiments of the Imperial Kingdom, the pirate regiments of the Sea Kingdom, and the terror-terrorist organizations of the Kuril Islands...... These people are all the souls of the gravitational field tonight!"

The yellow dog was a little confused. Puzzled, he asked, "But all of our people are dead?"

"There is a price to pay for everything, and if we want to deceive people, we naturally have to work hard to act. Huang Dog said, "Old Zhou, you have performed well in the past two years, not only training a group of excellent divers, but also training a group of excellent killers. If it weren't for your excellent performance, which makes people mistakenly think that we really want to snatch the coffin, these enemies will not be so easily fooled. ”

After listening to this. A fire suddenly broke out in Zhou Qingshan's heart, he had worked hard to cultivate so many divers and killers, was it just to go to the bottom of the sea to die today?

What he spent so much effort to do, he was treated like garbage by the yellow dog. Thrown to the bottom of the sea, it was reduced to nothing......

"I still don't understand!" Zhou Qingshan couldn't help but ask, "If we want to deal with the forces of the Imperial Kingdom, the Sea Kingdom, and the Thousand Islands, we can confront them head-on, and we may not have no chance of winning, why use this method of suicide?"

"You're right. Although the Imperial Kingdom, the Sea Kingdom, and the Thousand Islands have some power, they are not to be feared. I set up this scam, and the people I initially wanted to deal with were not actually them, but the four book kings. ”

Yellow Dog introduced, "The Four Book Kings are my strongest opponents, these four old things are mysterious, and if you want to kill them, you must need special means. I originally wanted to use the underwater coffin to deceive the four book kings and kill them with a gravitational field. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. The Four Book Kings disappeared en masse a few years ago, and my scam came up empty. ”

After a pause, the yellow dog continued, "However, this scam is not in vain, although the four book kings did not take the bait, but the black shadow man did......"

"Black Shadow Man?" Zhou Qingshan was stunned, "The Black Shadow Man also entered the bottom of the sea?"

"The Shadow Man captured Yellow Rose, and he should have learned about the underwater coffin from Yellow Rose's mouth. Yellow Dog analyzed, "With the nosy character of the Black Shadow Man, he will definitely come to the bottom of the sea to find out." If I'm not mistaken, the Shadowmen must have blended into the crowd tonight and made their way to the bottom of the ocean. At this moment, among the thousands of corpses floating on the sea, one was the corpse of the Black Shadow Man. ”

Zhou Qingshan's face changed slightly, and he couldn't help but glance at the black corpse on the sea again, and asked, "If the Black Shadow Man really came to investigate the coffin of the island book, why didn't he come to me? ”

"Isn't it easy, the Shadow Man wants to lure me in. If he catches you, won't he be startled?" said the Yellow Dog, "The Black Shadow Man is lucky, there are thousands of people buried in the sea with him tonight, and he should be blind under the Nine Springs." With the death of the Black Shadow Man, the Reading Alliance is no longer a threat, and Huaxia Kingdom is already in the bag. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Qingshan was not the slightest excited, but was endlessly disappointed, he suddenly didn't understand what he had been busy with in the past three years?

Train your subordinates day and night, pay whatever it takes, just for a scam, just to send them to death?

Zhou Qingshan suddenly understood that he was just a pawn of the yellow dog, and he was an outcast.

"Lao Zhou, you don't have to care so much, it's just a few thousand people who have died, and you should be informal. The Yellow Dog enlightened, "If you kill the Shadow Man tonight, I won't treat you badly." ”

Zhou Qingshan asked: "So, the matter of the coffin is all fake, and the matter of immortality is also fake?"

"No, it's true!" said the yellow dog, "The gravitational field of the coffin will indeed disappear, and the entrance to the coffin will indeed open automatically, but the time is not December 12th, but December 13th, that is, tomorrow." ”

"Tomorrow?" Zhou Qingshan asked, "Tomorrow we have to go to the bottom of the sea to get the coffin?"

"Yes, tomorrow you will go to the bottom of the sea and help me retrieve the contents of the coffin. The yellow dog sank and said, "But now there is another thing for you to do. There are so many corpses floating on the surface of the sea tonight, you should send someone to salvage them all and find a hidden place to bury them, so that no one will detect them. Also, you have to find a way to find the corpse of the Shadow Man. ”

Zhou Qingshan reminded: "Boss Huang, we don't know what the black shadow man looks like, how can we find his corpse?"

Yellow Dog said: "The Black Shadow Man must be mixed in the crowd, he may be in the Imperial Ninja Regiment, he may be in the Sea Country Pirate Regiment, or he may be in the Thousand Islands Terror-Horror Organization. Anyway, you have to check all the corpses to see if there are any suspicious people. It is said that the Black Shadow Man is a middle-aged uncle, about 1.78 meters tall, with a well-proportioned figure, not fat or thin, you can tell by these characteristics. ”

"Yes. ”

"You go and retrieve the corpse first, and I'll look for you again tomorrow night and show you how to take the contents of the coffin. ”

"Understood. ”

At this point, the call ended.

After that, Zhou Qingshan immediately contacted more than 6,000 members of the Sun and Moon Books Society and asked them to drive more than 50 boats to salvage corpses on the sea.

In addition to salvaging human corpses, fish corpses are also salvage.

The corpses were transported by boatload to the western shore of Sun Moon Island and stacked in a cave.

By the time the day dawned, most of the corpses had been salvaged, and the sea seemed to have been restored to its original state.

Out of caution, the members of the Sun Moon Book Society disguised themselves as fishermen and continued to patrol the sea to ensure that there were no corpses that had escaped the net......

……

When the people of the Sun Moon Book Society were salvaging the corpses on the sea, Hua Yingxue came to the beach at the northern end of Sun Moon Island alone and looked at the sea with a telescope.

"Why so many corpses?"

Looking at the dead corpses fished out of the seawater, Hua Yingxue couldn't help but panic a little.

"Nothing should happen to the Shadow Man, right?"

Hua Yingxue waited anxiously by the beach, and when the eastern sky appeared white, the black shadow man still did not return.

"Can't wait any longer!"

At this time, Hua Yingxue immediately took out a snow-white sachet from her arms, which was the sachet that the black shadow man had given her before.

The Shadow Man once said that there is a clever plan in this bag that can solve all difficulties.

Now that the life and death of the black shadow man are unknown, Hua Yingxue decided to open the bag and take a look......

…… (To be continued.) )
