Chapter 4: Reiki Revival

"Catch him!"

Jia Jintang was furious, his face was hot and swollen, and blood was dripping from his head, looking extremely hideous.

Almost at the same time, Liu Zhen rushed into the door and raised his gun to shoot out the window.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the bullet shot through the window lattice and grazed Jiang Ting's shoulder, splashing a blood flower there.

"Plop!"

Jiang Ting endured severe pain and jumped into the water, where the teahouse was built next to the water, and due to the sand dredging activities before the reservoir was built, the slope of the shore was extremely large, and even in the dry season, the lake was several meters deep.

Seeing Jiang Ting jump into the water, Liu Zhen chased after him without hesitation, and a trace of murderous intent appeared in Jia Jintang's eyes, and he jumped down.

The blood spread out of the water, and Jiang Ting covered his shoulders and swam desperately to the depths of the reservoir.

The bronze coffin pendant was on his body, and Jiang Ting made up his mind that if he could not escape, he would throw the bronze coffin pendant down, and it would never be obtained by that group of people.

The reservoir was muddy, visibility was extremely low, and as the depth increased, Jiang Ting felt his eardrums buzz, black spots began to appear in front of his eyes, and his limbs became numb.

"I'm afraid it's bad luck this time." Jiang Ting secretly said in his heart, with the increase in blood loss, lack of oxygen and water pressure, his eyes became darker and darker, and he was almost unconscious.

Jiang Ting didn't notice that under the chaotic and dark water, the bronze coffin pendant hanging from his waist trembled slightly, the water ripples lit up, and the green light flew out and surged into Jiang Ting's body.

Behind Jiang Ting, two black figures appeared in the water, and Liu Zhen and Jia Jintang found Jiang Ting's figure and chased after Jiang Ting at an incredible speed.

The distance between the three of them was getting closer and closer, Liu Zhen's face was gloomy, and Jia Jintang showed a hideous look, he stretched out his thin palm and grabbed Jiang Ting fiercely.

At this moment, a change suddenly occurred!

"Boom-"

A loud bang came, and the water layer nearly ten meters deep was lifted alive, and Jiang Ting felt a sudden lightness in his chest, and he almost passed out.

A tall figure descended from the sky, like a god, he stepped on the waves, and rushed towards Liu Zhen and Jia Jintang.

Liu Zhen's eyes froze, his body lifted, and he also stepped on the surface of the lake, a special pistol was taken out by him, and he raised the gun to shoot at the tall figure.

The tall figure raised his hand, and a slender spur was thrown by him, straight into the barrel of the gun.

"Bang!"

Everything happened between lightning and flint, and before Liu Zhen could react, the pistol in his hand exploded, and most of the hand holding the gun was blown off, and blood was splashed, which was very miserable.

Liu Zhen gritted his teeth, a hand-held bow and crossbow was taken out by him, and shot at the tall figure, sharp arrows flew out, but the latter waved his hand to block it, and the next moment, the tall figure stepped on the water and stepped on the waves!

The tall figure swung his fist and hit Liu Zhen, Liu Zhen raised his arm to block in front of him, and with a click, Liu Zhen's arms were broken and he flew out upside down.

Jia Jintang, who was not far away, saw that the situation was not good, dived into the water, the tall figure stepped on the water, the lake exploded, and a silver light flew out of his hand, nailing Jia Jintang's shoulder blades.

Not far away, the corners of Jiang Ting's mouth were bleeding, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief, the tall figure descended like a god and demon, treading the waves, and could cut through the water several meters deep, all of which was beyond his cognition.

There were two muffled sounds, Jia Jintang and Liu Zhen were thrown ashore, Jiang Ting only felt a flower in front of him, and his body was lifted up and detached from the water.

"Whew, I'm glad I caught up." A voice came, and Jiang Ting saw the appearance of his life-saving benefactor clearly.

The young man in front of him was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with slightly dark skin, a strong body, good facial features, and sharp eyes.

"You've lost so much blood, it's a miracle you've survived until now." The young man glanced at Jiang Ting, took out a palm-sized vial, and aimed it at Jiang Ting's wound.

A high concentration of atomized liquid sprayed out, and Jiang Ting felt that his wound was warm, covered with a layer of spiderweb-like substance, and his wound was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Thank you." Jiang Ting had no strength, and although his body was still very weak, he could feel that his strength was gradually recovering.

"There are not even a few bottles of things from the Academy of All Souls." The young man shook off the water on his body, and his face showed pain, "Let me introduce myself, my name is Luo Zhen." ”

Jiang Ting struggled to get up: "My name is Jiang Ting." ”

Luo Zhen nodded: "I know you have a lot of doubts, let's talk while walking." ”

As he spoke, Luo Zhen picked up Liu Zhen and Jia Jintang, who had passed out, and walked towards an off-road vehicle not far away.

Jiang Ting hesitated for a moment and followed Luo Zhen, although he had doubts in his heart, but at the moment, the latter's strength was too strong, and he had no chance of winning if he escaped from this kind of person.

"If there's anything you want to ask, just say it." Luo Zhen sat in the driver's seat and looked out the window.

Jiang Ting was silent, there were too many things that happened in one day today, he felt that his brain was a little chaotic, and he didn't know where to start for a while.

After a while, Jiang Ting opened his mouth and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

"You are now the last researcher and acting director of the Pre-Qin Research Institute, and according to the regulations, you have to register, and I will also send the two of them over for interrogation." Luo Zhen replied.

"Acting Director?" Jiang Ting was dumbfounded, "What the hell is the Pre-Qin Research Institute doing?" ”

"Studying the history of the pre-Qin period." Luo Zhen replied simply, "It's just that the purpose is different from what you think." ”

"The world has changed." Luo Zhen sighed, "And what we have done is nothing more than to let more people live before the world changes completely." ”

"What do you mean?" Jiang Ting's brows furrowed, he remembered what Jia Jintang had said before, and there was a faint guess in his heart.

"Biological growth is accelerating, and both animals and plants are mutating to varying degrees, they are becoming stronger, more aggressive, and the rate of change is increasing."

"I came back from a mission in Northern Europe last month, and they call this phenomenon the dawn of the gods, but in Kyushu, it's more appropriate to call it Reiki revival. ”

"This phenomenon has been brought to the attention of governments around the world, and countries have been dealing with it for decades, but strangely enough, the process of Reiki recovery seems to have accelerated considerably." Luo Zhen also frowned.

"Moreover, unlike other countries, the speed of aura recovery here is much slower, and there seems to be an invisible force suppressing it." Luo Zhen added.

Jiang Ting nodded, he crossed over, and his receptivity was extremely strong, and he quickly understood everything Luo Zhen said: "Then that kind of power of yours is also brought by the revival of aura?" ”

"Not exactly." Luo Zhen replied, "My current strength is still within the range of 'people', the so-called opening the stele and cracking the stone, exhaling and killing, some martial arts masters can do the same." ”

Looking at the "masters of the rivers and lakes" that will only appear in these film and television dramas, Jiang Ting suddenly felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and he had a hunch that his future life would not be too peaceful.

"Then what is our Pre-Qin Research Institute responsible for?" Jiang Ting asked this question again.

"Reiki has been revived more than once, and even in those silent times, there are unusual people." Luo Zhen did not explain directly, "Kong Sheng's father can lift the city gate, King Qin Wu, King Xiang, and Yue Shuai have all raised the crown, Luo Cheng has a big gun of 240 catties, and Li Yuanba has a double hammer of 800 catties, these are not ordinary people." ”

"Maybe it's different from the ancient pound system." Jiang Ting pondered.

"Emperor Xiaojing of the Eastern Wei Dynasty has the power to coerce a stone lion over the wall." Luo Zhen said lightly, "You study archaeology, do you know how heavy a stone lion is?" ”

Jiang Ting is silent, the etiquette of the Northern and Southern Dynasties is according to the Han system, according to the stone lions of the Han Dynasty palace unearthed so far -

It probably weighs a ton or two.

Carrying a stone lion of one or two tons and crossed over the wall, although Jiang Ting wanted to say that this might be the historian's nonsense, but the fact that the aura was revived in front of him made him have to guess the truth of the matter.

After all, as a traverser, he really didn't have the right to suspect that what people said was false......

"But they still belong to the category of 'people', at least they don't have three heads and six arms, and they have wings on their backs, and these 'aliens' have become extinct after Qin." Luo Zhen's face was serious, "And the task of your Pre-Qin Research Institute is to find out the truth behind this ancient history, it is very likely that these 'aliens' are closely related to the revival of aura!" ”

"You mean that this aura revival is likely to regain the glory of the pre-Qin period, and all kinds of 'aliens' will appear one after another?" Jiang Ting understood what Luo Zhen meant.

"Not bad." Luo Zhen nodded, "What your Pre-Qin Research Institute is responsible for is to find a way, a path to the era of aura revival!" ”

Jiang Ting gasped: "What if the Pre-Qin Research Institute can't do it?" ”

"You have to do it."

Luo Zhen's face was serious: "Because this is the most likely way." ”

"The Pansoul Academy is looking for a way into the future, the process is slow and immature, the Prehistoric Investigation Bureau is too far away, and the Lost Civilization Investigation Center may not be suitable for Kyushu, let alone any extraterrestrial civilization search team."

"Only the road of the pre-Qin era is the most mature, and it is also the most suitable for the current situation in Kyushu, so you must do it!"

Luo Zhen was categorical, and Jiang Ting took a deep breath: "Okay." ”

"But......" Jiang Ting paused, "why me?" ”

Kyushu is full of talents, and he Jiang Ting is just an ordinary archaeology graduate, his alma mater is not the top university in Kyushu, and there are many great players in the academic world, why was he absorbed into the Pre-Qin Research Institute?

It can't be Director He's face.

Moreover, judging from Luo Zhen's description, the pre-Qin research institute with a heavy responsibility will definitely be a hot department in Kyushu in the future, and those noble gate lords of the Longxiang Empire will inevitably sharpen their heads and squeeze in, how can they have their own share?

It can't be Director He's face.

Good guy, Director He, is this a face-saving fruit?
