Chapter 157
Seeing this, Gu Pinyao immediately used the rune to summon the earth element to manipulate the land on the surface, and the ground where the more than ten people were located quickly collapsed and fell to a few meters underground. Then she swept it away, and the dust that had fallen outside filled the crater, and all the bloody dust was covered in the ground. Looking around, there seemed to be no other suspicious traces, and she entered the supermarket again, observing the scene outside with her consciousness.
When Gu Pinyao's figure disappeared in place, a group of speeding cars gradually moved from the sky.
"It's coming soon, all attention!" Unlike the violence just now, Qi Han's face at this time was cautious, and the muscles all over his body were tense, like a hunter lurking in the shadows ready to kill his prey with one move. With his eyes glued to the electronic screen with a panoramic image of the front, he carefully watched every nook and cranny, not missing any potential danger. However, beyond his expectations, the shelter in this place was close to nothing, and there was no sign of any living movement on the quiet, flat and wide ground around it, not even dead people. Eh, no, wait, what about Lu Bai's group? The above elder Xu mentioned in the previous video that Lu Bai and his party died in the designated geographical location not far from them, and it stands to reason that the corpse should have stayed in place without any damage, why can't he see a trace of people now?
Immediately straightened up, Qi Han enlarged the image on the screen, and did not let go of any clues, but there was nothing superfluous to discover. He immediately opened his brain and said to everyone through the communication device, "There is no trace of the target person in front of him. When you arrive at the designated place for a while, don't go down yet, and levitate the car in the air to see. ”
After the words fell, he turned his head to look at the lean man who was driving a speeding car next to him, and said, "Second brother, what do you think?" ”
Hearing his name, the lean man didn't even bother to look at him, but said coldly, "Call me Rob." ”
"Hi. Don't be so serious. Tell me what you think. Seeing that the other party's eyes were a little depressed, Qi Han suddenly changed as if he was a person, and said jokingly.
But when Narob heard this, he was speechless. "Don't be so unserious." Then he glanced at the screen. After a pause. "There are traces of renovation on the ground, and when it is safe, ask someone to go down and test it."
Rob is an earth-based powerhouser. He has a strong sense of the land, which is why he is sent out to find new materials that he needs in the door. Therefore, even if he is still some distance away from the designated place, he can still easily feel the smell of the land after it has been turned over, as well as the faint smell of blood that permeates the land. Realizing that the blood content in the land seemed to be excessive, Rob frowned slightly, how could this situation become more and more like the scene after activating the Heaven and Earth Lore Array? When these inner disciples were studying in the sect, they all practiced many formations, and it was impossible for him not to see this famous killing formation. Heaven and Earth Lore means to have the power to open the world, besiege the enemy in the formation, and finally harvest the opponent's life. And to obtain this power, it is necessary for everyone to gather the energy in their bodies to one person, and that person will deal with the enemy. It's just that if that person is defeated, one wounded will be injured by all, and in this case, it is also possible that the whole army will be annihilated. It's just that he couldn't figure out how powerful the opponent was to be able to crack the formation formed by this group of inner disciples and senior walker Lu Bai's uncle, and he also killed them. Now that he thinks that Lu Bai, who has the grace to teach him, has died like this, he is still a little difficult to let go.
Seeing that Rob beside him had a different expression, Qi Han raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?" What new discoveries have you made? ”
"Uncle Lu Bai, they used the Heaven and Earth Killing Array before they died."
"What?" Listening to Luo Bu's words, Qi Han's face also changed, "The Heaven and Earth Killing Array has been used, and the whole army has been wiped out?" Tut-tut, I don't know who has risen in the Federation recently, and it is so powerful. Speaking of the back, Qi Han actually had a competitive heart that was eager to move, just hoping to be able to fight, which attracted Luo Bu next to him to throw him with a white eye.
"Wake up, the Heaven and Earth Killing Array has gathered the energy of so many people, and the actual effectiveness has doubled, but the result is still completely annihilated, can you stuff people's teeth alone?"
When Qi Han heard this, he smiled, "People, you have to pursue a little bit." But then his face was still straight, and he said, "Lu Bai, they should have been swept underground, and the murderer covered up the traces of those fights, I'm afraid they have already gone away by now." ”
"I think so, but let's wait and see. In the air, we can see what is happening. ”
"Hmm."
When they arrived at their destination, Qi Han and his party levitated the flying car in the air directly above and carefully observed the surroundings.
Gu Pinyao, who was hiding in the supermarket and peeping, saw this person, his eyebrows slightly raised, with a slight doubt. This group of people should be the same group as the group of people who died under the mouth of the little lion, and in the same way, she didn't feel any energy devouring energy from this group of people. It seems that they belong to the same sect, and like the Harald family, they have been consuming pills, and they can have devouring energy in their bodies. But she wasn't sick, so how could she not feel the energy factor that was the same source as the energy in her body at all? After thinking about it, Gu Pinyao could only find one explanation, that is, this group of people had a higher status than the Harald family people she met in Junk Star, and they were carrying things that could cover her visit, or that the people who ate were different from those in the Harald family.
Just when Gu Pinyao was pondering, Qi Han had been waiting for a long time.
"Captain, look, why don't we go down and look for it? It's not going to help if you keep waiting here. It seems that there is no one else, and the murderer may have left here a long time ago, so we just ......"
It was the inflammatory, thin-faced man who spoke before, but before he could finish speaking, Qi Han interrupted with a displeased face, "I said, am I the captain or are you the captain?" You've been chirping and talking all the way, can you stop for a while? ”
He had already seen the ulterior motives of that man, and he didn't notice how to mix in the door, despite his well-developed limbs and not a simple-minded person. The other party was inciting everyone all the way, and it was all an act of disrupting his mission. He could guess with the tip of his hair who was behind the man. Oh, it's really a group of people who don't know how to restrain themselves, he doesn't want to deal with it, but that group of people sent it to the door by themselves, it's really stupid. If he pressed it tighter, he couldn't guarantee that he would fight back.
"No, no, no, naturally you are the captain, and we follow your orders."
"It's good that you know, recognize your status, and don't mess with yourself. Otherwise, if you get into trouble, no one will protect you. Qi Han heard the other party's words begging for mercy. Then he said something specious, so that when the man heard it, his eyes flashed and he was slightly alarmed. But it was quickly hidden.
"Yes. Captain. ”
Qi Han saw that the other party didn't say much. Only then did he turn his gaze back. After several flying cars inspected the surrounding environment at the same time and didn't notice anything, he muttered for a while, and finally ordered everyone to land on the ground.
"How? Did you feel something? "The men on the periphery were guarded with guns. The rest searched in situ. Qi Han walked around again, and he didn't find anything except the renovated ground, so he asked Rob with a deep face.
"They're seven and eight meters underground." Rob glanced at Qi Han and said.
"So deep? It doesn't feel like a man-made landfill, could it be that there are fierce beasts? However, this geographical location does not look like a large beast infested. ”
Hearing the other party's question, Rob said with an indistinguishable expression, "Is it man-made, or is it an earth-based ability." ”
"How can you be so sure of being human? It is not impossible for strange beasts such as snakes and dragons to be impossible. There are quite a few people in charge of Lu Bai, and there are really people who make them nervous enough to use the Heaven and Earth Killing Array, I'm afraid they would have already sent a message for help, so that they wouldn't suddenly die in this wilderness. I feel that there is the greatest possibility of encountering fierce beasts, and they bury people in the ground to store food, isn't it their habit? ”
Gu Pinyao, who had been secretly observing, listened to the conversation between the two people, and immediately shifted his attention here, staring at the two of them.
"No, Uncle Lu Bai, they are located on the same plane underground, which means that they fell at the same time, and the encirclement composed of more than ten people, how big do you think? At the same time, they can be brought into a dug pit more than seven meters deep, which no beast we know can do. ”
"Oh?" Hearing Rob's words, Qi Han's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Just dig it out and take a look." ”
"All the staff obeyed the order, left five people to guard in place, and the others all took their things and dug down the ground from under their feet, and Lu Bai and them were below." Turning around, Qi Han said to everyone with a solemn face.
Then, Gu Pinyao saw that this group of tall and strong men put on protective clothing, took various tools and started working in an orderly manner, with a clear division of labor, and they seemed to be accustomed to this rhythm. Seeing this, the surprise in Gu Pinyao's eyes flashed, but he still calmed down and continued to watch.
"Second child, you're not helping?" Seeing that everyone was moving, Rob was still stunned in place, his face was solemn, and Qi Han walked over and asked curiously.
"I'm speculating about the relationship. According to my guess, Uncle Lu Bai was killed by someone, and the Heaven and Earth Killing Array can't deal with it, so we can be sure that the other party's skills are far stronger than ours, but we don't necessarily say whether it's a person or a group of people. Furthermore, the ability to cast a wide range of earth-based abilities means that at least one of them is an earth-based ability, and they need to be at least mid-to-high to reach that level. But if there is such a person, I am afraid that there will be no handle left for us to discover. What is the purpose of our trip? Speaking of this, Rob raised his head, looked at Qi Han in front of him in a daze, and said, "I think, you should also think about this problem." ”
Hearing this, Qi Han was stunned and thoughtful.
"The person is dead, Elder Xu just let us come and explore the way." Qi said with some uncertainty in his tone.
Just listening to his answer, Rob sneered, but he couldn't say why, so he could only reply in a low voice, "I hope so!" Then he joined the team and started digging. Fortunately, he's a soil-based ability, and although he focuses on surveying, he still has no problem transporting some dirt and digging holes. Gu Pinyao saw that the group of them began to slowly go deep into the ground, and they were almost bored to watch. Fortunately, with the help of abilities and machinery, Qi Han and his party dug up the group of women in white in the deep pit in less than an hour.
"Captain, come and see, I've got it here."
"I have it here."
was dealing with the surrounding soil, and suddenly heard someone reporting new progress, Qi Han immediately put down his work and ran over. Seeing that corpses appeared one after another at this level, Qi Han nodded and said, "Keep digging, dig these people out of the mud, and wait for others to come to contact, and we will complete the task." ”
"Yes." Hearing Qi Han's words, everyone worked harder and harder. After all, this place is not absolutely safe, otherwise Lu Bai's group of people would not have died mysteriously, and the sooner they complete the task and leave, the better.
By the time everyone worked together to dig out the corpses from the soil and lay them neatly on the ground, the sun was about to set. Taking samples of the soil where the corpses were located, and then examining the wounds on their bodies one by one, Qi Han found that these people had lost a lot of blood before they died, and the energy in their bodies was almost microseconds, which showed that the situation was very urgent at that time, otherwise they would not have exhausted all their energy when they used the Heaven and Earth Killing Array. And what made him chill the most was that these people all had hideous blood holes in their necks, embedded in the throat, and it could be seen that the fatal wounds were there. If it was man-made, it would not have been possible to have such a big wound.
Just when Qi Han was confused, Rob stepped forward and said to him, "We haven't found Uncle Lu Bai. ”
"Huh? What the? Isn't Lu Bai in charge with this group of people? Turning his head, Qi Han asked in some surprise.
But seeing Luo Bu's rare love exposed, he said with a gloomy face, "Uncle Lu Bai is not missing, but we only found his broken body." In other words, Lu Bai is dead. This is a big taboo for a cultivator, the body is the key to the spiritual world, even if someone falls halfway through the cultivation, but with a complete body, maybe by chance they can still take the path of meditation. But if the body is gone, there really is no possibility. So even if Rob, who was cold, saw that Lu Bai, who had taught him that day, was now dead, his expression would never be good.
"Then I can boldly guess that Lu Bai and his party would use the Heaven and Earth Killing Array so recklessly when they encountered a strong enemy, but they didn't want to be interrupted halfway, and the energy of the guide would explode. And the culprit of the death of the fellow disciple should be a moderately sized beast, whether the beast annihilated them with its own strength, or whether there were other humans cooperating, he didn't know.
