Chapter 386: Clues (2)
The Great World of Cultivation was about to begin, and when this news came out, the core leadership of Yi Xiangxuan was a little numb.
They originally thought that at the beginning of the new millennium, waiting for the empire and the alien race to fight inextricably, they would slowly develop their cultivation power and occupy a heavier weight among the underground forces in the imperial capital. Although it can't compete with the government, it can at least put more pressure on ordinary people.
But all of a sudden, the empire is going to cultivate immortals for the whole people? When he heard the news, the young Yixiangxuan boss only had one MMP to say in his heart.
If the Great World of Cultivation really starts immediately, the entire empire will start a wave of cultivation frenzy, especially in the battle with foreign races, the military can establish a few national heroes, which can drive the momentum of the whole country. And with the help and impetus of the authorities, the number of cultivators throughout the empire will skyrocket.
At that time, Yi Xiangxuan, who is on the same starting line as them, will even be completely reduced to a third-rate underground force because he is in an underground force, without any foundation and help, and even because the members lack many qualified potential stocks.
In the beginning, they were in a wait-and-see attitude. After all, the empire wants to start advocating the cultivation of the whole people, this process can be fast or slow, and when they didn't understand the empire's intentions, Yi Xiangxuan didn't act rashly, but just began to speed up the process of their plan.
According to Gray Rope's investigation, Yi Xiangxuan has built a peripheral organization that has nothing to do with all their dirty work, and is dedicated to cultivating their own cultivators from scratch. From among the descendants of his subordinates and some orphans, select people with good talents, concentrate on cultivation among them, and prepare to be their first new force.
And after the news of the Great Cultivation World began to spread, Yi Xiangxuan dispersed almost all of his family resources by one-third, expanding the number of this peripheral organization from one to fifteen, and quietly developed and grew in all corners of the imperial capital.
However, at this time, An Xiaoyu came out of nowhere, and directly told the secret of the cultivator in the individual competition of the Battle of the Hundred Provinces, and then the empire took advantage of An Xiaoyu's momentum to make all the information on cultivation public.
And within the empire, although there are many opposition forces, the vast majority of people hold a supportive or neutral attitude.
This phenomenon caught Yi Xiangxuan off guard, their plan had already begun to be executed, and the Great Cultivation World had begun. Do they want to use their modest capital to compete with the entire empire?
So they decided to postpone the opening of the great world of practice.
As for how to postpone it...... They had only one plan, to kill An Xiaoyu, affect the progress of the empire's plan, shock the power of cultivators across the country, and bewitch all the ordinary people who cared about the news related to the great world of cultivation, linking cultivation with life and death first, causing a large panic.
After An Xiaoyu saw this plan, she really had a headache.
Let's not talk about whether she is really the leader of the opening of the great world of cultivation, although she is now known as a rare genius in ten thousand years, the first person of the younger generation, Shaozong and so on, but An Xiaoyu always feels that although she has a little effect, but without herself, the empire will soon open the great world of cultivation.
The best proof of this is that when Jia Zhuang Xian entered the imperial capital and began to wreak havoc, the great cultivators in the imperial capital who did not know who the forces were directly attacked. That cold snort and the energy that pierced through the sky were obvious to all in the imperial capital. And later they negotiated with Huang Wuyi without informing An Xiaoyu.
Therefore, the empire's dependence on An Xiaoyu is not as strong as Yi Xiangxuan imagined, or dispensable.
An Xiaoyu herself knew that when her strength had not really reached the height of an administrator, or when there was no formed force standing behind her, she was just an ordinary citizen in the eyes of the empire, a person who could take advantage of each other.
But just because she understands doesn't mean that others understand.
These things at the top of the empire can never be imagined by people at the bottom. If An Xiaoyu hadn't stepped into the cultivation world and experienced so many things, I am afraid that he would not have known what thoughts existed within the empire at all.
What's more, Yixiangxuan?
Therefore, they desperately believed that killing An Xiaoyu would slow down the opening of the Great Cultivation World, so that the empire could wait for them to take the first step, and then they would be able to guarantee their status in the Great Cultivation World, and even rely on these cultivators to stir up trouble in the entire underground.
The idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
An Xiaoyu sighed, continued to watch some big events about Yi Xiangxuan, learned about their style of action and planning, and roughly understood what Yi Xiangxuan was.
In An Xiaoyu's view, this force is simply a group of reckless people, who only know how to fight life and death, only know money and beauty, and all the operations within the organization are driven by the most primitive desires, which makes An Xiaoyu, who has just learned about people's desires, a little touched.
At the same time, she thought of those who were bewitched by the origin, Chi Mo, Wei Fangcun, and Guan Shanren, all of whom were manipulated by the origin by using their inner desires. And this desire is usually suppressed in the body by the cultivation realm, making them mistakenly think that they have no desire and no desire.
But desire is here, in the courtyard of human beings, and it is the most primitive evolutionary driving force of human beings from their birth to the present, and it is impossible to be wiped out by some things such as the realm of cultivation. The reason why they don't feel it is only because there is nothing yet that makes your desire strong.
Once there is such a thing, an event, that arouses your inner desire, then it will hardly be too far from your end.
An Xiaoyu thought about it, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Before the realm strength was sealed, how could she not be a person who thought like this? Even after experiencing life and death, and getting a huge amount of astronomical money that he had never thought of before, An Xiaoyu was suppressed by the divine soul realm above the human race, and almost thought that there was nothing in this world that could really tempt him.
But is that really the case?
At least, there is something in this world that is fatal to An Xiaoyu.
For example, the lives of family members and clansmen of the Jiuxi tribe, and the lives of their own friends.
An Xiaoyu rang the alarm bell for herself, quickly browsed all the information, and then looked at the key points twice to make sure that she didn't miss anything, and after she had some understanding of the general situation of Yi Xiangxuan, she began to guess in her heart how they would make a move.
The three sea clans also finished eating quickly, and when they saw An Xiaoyu studying the data, they were silent.
They were still very convinced of An Xiaoyu's intelligence, so they tried not to disturb An Xiaoyu's thinking.
Just when An Xiaoyu finished reading the information, the phone call of the celebrity also called, telling An Xiaoyu that he had just found a useful clue, which should coincide with what An Xiaoyu said about taking away Si Lanyi and Si Mingyu's father and daughter.
The information was taken from the Imperial Capital Garrison, and because of An Xiaoyu, it was easy for the celebrity to get the whole thing before and after.
That's probably the case.
Just this morning, a person came to the substation of the Imperial Capital Garrison to report the case. The identity of the informant is a taxi driver, and his family lives in the northwest city, so he often solicits business in that area, and he has been short of money recently, so he often runs an extra few hours of night and morning shifts.
Last night, he received a big order, someone had to run from the northwest city of the imperial capital to the edge of the southeast city to pick up something, and then come back. The face base of the imperial capital is very large, and he also thought about it again and again, and decided to go on this trip, because the other party gave a lot of money.
The matter had nothing to do with the taxi man, and after the two of them went to the southeast city to get something, the driver sent the guest back to the northwest city, and the time was about two or three o'clock in the morning. This time is the quietest time of night in the imperial capital, and there is no one on the street.
The driver thought that he would make noise to his wife and children when he got home, so he decided not to go home first, and slept directly in the car for more than an hour, and then waited for the morning to run two more orders at dawn, and waited for the children to go home and sleep after going to school.
After all, last night's order has already topped his income for two or three days, and he can rest for half a day to treat himself.
So he found a corner next to what seemed to be an abandoned hospital or something, he stopped the car, put down his seat, and lay down in the car and fell asleep in a daze.
Halfway through his sleep, the driver heard some noisy sounds, plus the winter night was a little cold, and soon he woke up and heard clearly that someone was talking outside, and there was more than one, and the footsteps were very noisy.
He thought someone was passing by and felt that he couldn't let go of this opportunity to do business, so he wanted to open the car window to solicit business. But when he saw the cardboard boxes in the hands of those people, he hesitated, these boxes were too big for the taxi to withstand.
Just when he hesitated to open the door and ask where they were going, he saw these people carrying a total of four boxes from the front of his car, until they walked to the side of the abandoned hospital next to it, still without stopping, and walked directly inside.
The driver was sober all at once, and if he remembered correctly, this hospital next to it should have been a long time ago when few people came, and it was a psychiatric hospital. As the results of mental illness treatment have gradually unfolded, it has become difficult for psychiatric institutions to survive.
Am I experiencing protoecological psychosis? Thinking like this, the driver was so frightened that his hand that wanted to open the door immediately retracted. But with a hint of curiosity about psychosis, he still looked out the window at the people outside, listening carefully to their conversation.
According to the confession on the file, the course of their conversation is as follows.
In order of eight people from front to back, four people A, B, C and D are the main chat members, and the remaining four are silent and just carry the box inside.
A: "Do you think the boss will let us participate in that ceremony then?" I heard that if you go over there and take a look, you will live ten years longer! ”
B: "What nonsense?" That kind of big scene, can we go to small people? I heard that even if it's our boss, it doesn't matter if he wants to go there, I don't know how much money I was given to find a corner location, can I take us? ”
A: "That's right...... But what exactly is the ritual? So wicked? That's a life extension! None of the military's hospitals dared to say that! In addition to cultivation, what is the best way to prolong life now? ”
C: "I heard that it's a sect, and it's in the video uploaded on the Internet, where people are chopped up alive and then eaten. Otherwise, why do you think our business is so good? Aren't they going to eat human flesh yet? ”
Hearing the topic of cannibalism, the driver was stunned, and then quickly took out the terminal and started recording.
Immediately followed by a video, in the fourth, the person who was carrying the back edge of the second box, obviously the oldest one, heard them chatting about this, and quickly whispered: "What are you talking about?" There's no one on the door! Is that what you can say? ”
C: "Big ...... Big brother, I'm just saying it casually, you see there's no one else here. Besides, if what I said is not true, let's send several people here a day, could it be that we are feeding the mentally ill? ”
Ding: "Less fucking fart!" Do your job! After you finish taking the money and leaving, have you forgotten the most basic rules? We don't ask what the customer is going to do, we are just human traffickers, and once a person makes a move, no matter what they do, it has nothing to do with us! ”
A: "Big brother is right! Anyway, it has nothing to do with us, so let's get into less trouble! ”
When he said this, C seemed to be a little unhappy when he was reprimanded, and he didn't notice that he stepped on a stone and fell to the ground.
As he fell, the alley in his hand fell to the ground, tumbling over, and the contents fell from the box to the pavement.
An Xiaoyu could even hear the driver's heavy breathing, because the thing that rolled out of the box was captured in the video was a young girl who was tied up and still squirming on her own, and she could even see the pale and panicked on her face in the video, obviously hearing the previous conversation of several traffickers.
At this time, Ding stepped forward and kicked C, who hadn't gotten up yet: "It's not enough to succeed, it's more than enough to lose!" What's the use of asking you? Don't oops, hurry up and put someone in for me and see if there's anyone else next to me! ”
C got up from the ground, and as soon as he looked up, he saw the terminal camera in the taxi, and quickly pointed to the taxi and said, "Big brother! Someone took pictures! ”
"I'm Cao!" Ding rushed over with an arrow and pulled out a worn-out pistol in his hand.
The video came to an abrupt end here, the driver was an old driver, the seat back was not returned, and he just stepped on the accelerator and ran away, especially under the threat of life, the speed of the car almost soared to the extreme, so that several traffickers did not see what his license plate was.
In the morning, the driver went to the nearest police station to report to the police, and asked to change his license plate number, for fear of retaliation.
The garrison wrote down his report, and then sent someone to the traffic bureau to change his license plate, and at the same time asked people to go to an abandoned psychiatric hospital to investigate, but nothing was found, and the psychiatric hospital was empty except for two or three patients in the three-story ward.
Apparently they moved the location immediately after they were discovered yesterday.
The garrison could only call up the surveillance footage around the psychiatric hospital and check them one by one, and brought the director of the psychiatric hospital to the garrison for interrogation.
But the old dean didn't know anything, and the experience was very miserable.
As the incidence of mental illness gradually decreases and the cure rate continues to rise, the mental illness in the psychiatric hospital has become a deserted grave, and no one wants to come to it. Moreover, the amount allocated from above has been decreasing year by year, and the psychiatric hospital has gradually lost its ability to operate.
But there are still a few old patients living in it who have no family members willing to claim and treat, and they can't give up on the patients to dissolve the mental hospital, and can only barely support it.
Later, because there was no money, the director carried the medical institution above and transferred the patients of the psychiatric hospital to the third floor above. The empty house on the first floor was then rented out to various nearby shopping malls as temporary warehouses for storing goods.
Relying on this income, the director has supported the entire psychiatric hospital for nearly 20 years, and the previous dozen or so patients have now died to only two or three, originally thinking that after all the patients died, he could completely leave the psychiatric hospital and go home to care for the elderly.
But I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
The old dean was full of white hair, and he burst into tears in the interrogation room, saying that he was guilty, thinking that it was just a large commodity stored, but he didn't know that it was human traffickers who were abducting and trafficking people, and asked the garrison to convict him, even if it was a death sentence, he was willing.
In fact, the garrison will not deal with this kind of situation of being deceived.
The whole thing was caused by the lack of money in the hospital, at most the old director overstepped and rented out the medical space of the psychiatric hospital, and according to the previous situation of the psychiatric hospital, at most he was warned by the medical institution and fined accordingly.
As for the matter of the traffickers, it is also a normal lease relationship, and after the house is rented out, the old dean actually has no relevant responsibility for anything in it, so there is no need to convict.
After the old dean was released, the garrison began to thoroughly investigate the entire psychiatric hospital's tenants. However, the room where they stored human trafficking was not rented at all recently, and the old dean was dazzled and didn't pay attention to it, so this clue was broken at all.
As for how they managed to get the keys to these rooms, according to the old dean, any tenant has the right to have a spare key, and she has not changed the lock cylinder.
After all, since the surrounding merchants are willing to rent a house here, it must also be the experience of the poor old dean, all of whom are good people, and there is no need to guard too much.
An Xiaoyu read the entire dossier and felt that this was indeed a breakthrough, and it was very likely to be related to Si Lanyi's abduction.
She looked directly at the basic information of the informant, which recorded the driver's life, age and other basic information, as well as his home address and contact information.
An Xiaoyu thought for a moment and stood up from the sofa.
When the three sea clans saw An Xiaoyu get up, they also stood up at the same time and asked, "Shaozong, do you have a clue?" ”
An Xiaoyu nodded.
"Let's go see someone first, we'll talk on the way!"
