Chapter 40: The Man Behind the Scenes

"The role of this circle should be to hatch these eggs and stimulate the demon beasts inside." An old man said.

He didn't dive underwater, but Bai Qi used a spell to perfectly present what she saw below in front of him.

"That's why they're hungry and frantically attacking people around the waters." He continued.

"That's someone planning these things." Long Qingting's mood became a little bad. There is no essential difference between what this mysterious person is doing and what he is doing, but the difference between one active and the other passive, makes him feel uncomfortable. "Can you tell how long the circle has lasted?"

"It's hard to judge, but judging from the state of the things that were cleaned up next to it, it shouldn't be more than two months."

"Two months?" Bai Qi was a little surprised.

"The normal hatching time of the hook snake is two years, and the hatching location should also be on the shore rather than underwater, and it is not easy for people to set up these magic circles." The old man shook his head slightly and said.

"The last hook snake and the slaughter armor, their whereabouts may have something to do with this person." Huang Dou said without any flaws, as if the matter really had nothing to do with him at all. "Sun Yang, you said that you had seen an unidentified monk when you were in Luoyi?"

Sun Yang nodded, there is indeed such a thing. They had tried to obtain the Buddha bone relics from him by coercion, and then they directly attacked them, and the helicopter that Guan Mo, the director of the Covert Operations Bureau of the Special Cases Administration, was riding in was attacked by one of the guys who could drive spirit beasts and turn into monsters himself, and almost died. And after Sun Yang summoned the Endless Ghost King to kill him, he found that there was another person not far away who was sweeping the formation. That person even escaped from the Endless Ghost King by means of substitution of death, and from this point of view, his cultivation may not be weaker than the previous person.

This matter was recorded in the documents of the Luoyi incident, and both Long Qingting and Bai Qi had seen it.

Being able to drive spirit beasts, does that mean that they can also drive demon beasts like Hook Snakes? From that point of view, it's really a lot like what they do.

Bai Qi's face was uncertain, but she finally accepted the possibility. The attack on Sun Yang in Luoyi is very detailed in Guan Mo's transcript, and the Special Cases Administration believes that the attacker is likely to be a remnant of the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa, which was once very famous in the northwest. If this incident really had something to do with them, then Tu Jia and Bei Jiu were likely to have met the people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa, and had a conflict with Xingzang, were killed, or captured.

But what did they do in Yunmengze for?

"Maybe it's to demonstrate to the Special Cases Administration or to retaliate?" Huang Dou analyzed. "The person who fought with Sun Yang, according to Sun Yang's description, should already be a powerful monk who is rare now, in today's decline in the power of the sect, such a person can never be an unknown person in the sect, it is very likely to be an elder-level figure. It is impossible for them to remain indifferent to such losses. But Caiyun Province has Director Long in charge, they don't dare to come to the door to retaliate, and Director Guan is in the imperial capital, which is a place they can't easily enter, so they can only choose a gap like Yun Mengze to retaliate. Maybe their original plan was to move us to this place and then attack the lone target? Maybe the target they wanted to attack was Sun Yang, but they just happened to meet Tu Jia and them. ”

Such an analysis is reasonable, excluding the deaths of Tu Jia and Bei Jiu, even Sun Yang thinks that it is very likely. After all, the motive, the time, and all other aspects match. Maybe they don't necessarily have the guts to attack Long Qingting's subordinates, but it makes perfect sense to retaliate against the Special Cases Administration by unleashing hooking snakes in a densely populated area to cause damage.

"Are the satellite photos out?" Long Qingting asked at this time.

"At that time, the entire sky over Yunmengze was covered by clouds and mist." Bai Qi shook his head. If there were satellite photos available, the Chuzhou Branch would not have asked them for help at all, and the fighters who found the trail of the snake would be dispatched directly.

"To be able to defeat Tu Jia without alarming the people nearby, without leaving any traces, it is not easy for the people who come." Long Qingting said. "Bai Qi, you immediately notify the distant mountains to be on guard to prevent them from diverting the tiger from the mountains and causing damage in the distant mountains. Huang Dou, you take care of our people. Juehui, let's look for it again! ”

The two suddenly disappeared in the dark, Sun Yang looked at Huang Dou, and he watched indifferently as Bai Qi called the people left behind in the distant mountains.

Will there really be any people from the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa to retaliate?

Sun Yang suddenly began to worry about his parents, when Long Qingting was in the distant mountain, he would not have such worries, whether it was those people in Qingqiu, or those people from the Ghost Xuanzong should not dare to go to the distant mountains to make trouble, but now, Long Qingting has left the distant mountain, not only that, Huang Dou, Sun Yang himself......

He didn't know what the people who stayed in Long Qingting and stayed in the distant mountains were capable of, but he couldn't rest assured, so he couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and send a text message to Lu Xiaoling, asking her to help protect his parents.

Long Qingting and Juehui came back soon, Bai Qi looked at him, and he shook his head slightly.

"The fog has completely dispersed, which means that Yun Mengze's hook snake has completely left, at least he doesn't dare to show his head anymore." Long Qingting said to his subordinates. "I will stay and explain the situation to the people of the Chuzhou Branch, Bai Qi, Juehui, you take everyone back. Stay safe! ”

People agreed sullenly, it was supposed to be Long Qingting's action to further show his strength to the outside, but because of the disappearance of Tu Jia and Bei Jiu, it became anticlimactic, and the whereabouts of a hook snake are still unknown, which makes Long Qingting have no way to calmly declare to the Chuzhou Branch that he has completely solved the problem.

He has always been known for his tough and clean style at home, but this time he had to end with such an unclear ending. The most crucial point is that it is the first time that he is faced with such a situation where he is completely unable to predict the next move of the other party.

Is the other party's goal really to create chaos or to attack his men?

Why Tu Jia and Bei Jiu?

Could they have set up the same circle in another place? Will this continue to happen?

For Long Qingting, such a situation was simply a slap in the face, and he couldn't tolerate it at all.

He wants to move from the light to the dark, stay in Chuzhou and continue to search for this person, or the whereabouts of this organization.

Before the people left, he stopped Bai Qi: "Keep an eye on Huang Dou, and if possible, keep an eye on him for twenty-four hours." ”

"There's a good chance that our people will be discovered by him."

"Then show your identity and keep an eye on him." Long Qingting said.
