At this moment, Zhang Dingshan's expression was still calm. As if he were telling a trivial matter, he said, "That way, I will know what the secret is." ”

"No way!"

"No way!"

"No way!" At this moment, almost subconsciously, He Wei, Lu Qingliang, and Lu Ming said these two words in unison.

After this, He Weiliu raised her eyebrows: "I don't agree!" Captain, how much risk is there, you don't know in your heart? "Of the three masters, the first one committed suicide.

The second leader turned into an idiot. The third leader

"Otherworldly", he no longer cares about anything in the mundane world, even his own life.

Now, Zhang Dingshan is actually going to be the fourth sect leader? Lu Qingliang said urgently: "Yes! Captain, this time, it's a big deal, let's not check it, why don't we just report a hanging eucalyptus? Which squad doesn't have a few hanging eucalyptus? It's not like nothing before with our team! There is no need to take such a big risk! Lu Ming also said: "Yes! It's a big deal! At this moment, Lu Ming even regretted what he had done in his heart.

If I hadn't traveled to Haiye City, hadn't met Lin Shen, or had met Lin Shen, my curiosity wouldn't have been so great...... Will things be completely different from what they are now?

Who would have thought that it was just a trivial matter, but now that this matter has developed, it has trapped itself in a quagmire, and it is impossible to move forward or retreat.

Zhang Dingshan sighed softly. His expression was a little emotional, but his voice was still calm.

"As long as we pretend that there is no such thing, does this thing really not exist? Be an ostrich...... Scold. Lu Ming was stunned and speechless.

"When you joined the Operations Division 2 of the Planetary Security Agency, I remember that you weren't like this." Lu Ming slowly lowered his head, and He Wei forced himself to distinguish: "This is different, this ......"

"What's the difference?" Zhang Dingshan looked directly into He Wei's eyes, and his tone was calm, but it seemed to carry a thousand powers: "You tell me that if we face danger, we will choose to retreat, and even pretend that this matter does not exist, just to avoid our own risks...... What's the difference between us and Operation Sixteen? "An idealist, a realist.

Lu Qingliang said weakly: "I feel a little unworthy...... "By now, the fate organization has been completely resolved.

There will be no more victims. The sarcophagus is under close surveillance by his side, and there will definitely be no things like Lin Shen in the future.

That is to say, except for Lin Shen's problem that has not been solved, everything else can be said to have been solved.

So, for the sake of an ordinary person in an ordinary city, let a captain like Zhang Dingshan take a great risk, which is ...... Is it worth it?

Zhang Dingshan raised his voice slightly: "Qingliang, are you saying that Lin Shen is just an ordinary person, and it is not worth the risk of a high-ranking person like us for this, right?" ”

The words "high position", Zhang Dingshan slightly accentuated his voice. Lu Qingliang's face immediately turned red, and he snorted for a while, and finally lowered his head: "I'm sorry, I was wrong." ”

"The world government has given us authority, and we have to take on the corresponding responsibilities. Is this matter just a matter of Lin Shen? Lu Ming's face was ashamed.

At this moment, Lu Ming once again felt Zhang Dingshan's irreplaceable role in the second action team.

He is the banner of the Action 2 team and the spiritual core of the Action 2 team. In this team, everyone is replaceable, but he is the only one who is irreplaceable.

Without He Wei, it is not impossible to find excellent force and action. Without Lu Qingliang, excellent logistics leaders can also be found.

Even without himself, there must be many people who can take on the role of a think tank. But without Zhang Dingshan, the team was completely dispersed.

Even if it still exists, it is only in name only, and it is in vain. Lu Ming grabbed his hair: "Okay, captain, what you said is right." I'm just a little worried about the little pear ......" Thinking of the lovely face of Zhang Dingshan's daughter Zhang Li, Lu Ming was also a little dark in his heart.

She has lost her mother. If even Zhang Dingshan suffered an accident, then ...... Lu Ming's expression became firm.

He raised his head and looked directly into Zhang Dingshan's eyes: "Continue to investigate this eucalyptus, I agree." However, there is one thing that we may not be sure yet. That is, to assign another person to succeed the sect leader, in order to obtain a different effect from the members of the Destiny Organization, so as to know the secret, this ...... Is it really necessary? He Wei and Lu Qingliang's eyes lit up.

Before, because they were too shocked by Zhang Dingshan's words, the two of them subconsciously ignored this issue.

Indeed, eucalyptus can be sure to continue to check and not be listed as a hanging eucalyptus. But, do you really want to check it this way?

Is this really necessary? Zhang Dingshan nodded: "I think it is necessary to check in this way." Because the secret must be important. Moreover, this secret will almost certainly be of great significance to our subsequent investigation. ”

"Don't forget, if you know that secret through the way you succeed to the sect leader, even if you do, you will be almost impossible to tell. In that case, what else does this mean? "Three times in a row, and two of them can be sure that the Sect Master who is greedy for life and afraid of death has not been able to tell this secret.

Zhang Dingshan must be special, can he tell this secret? Zhang Dingshan said: "I know, it's really unlikely that I will tell this secret. However, I can continue to direct the follow-up investigations. "As long as I know this secret, I can arrange a follow-up investigation based on it on the premise of sufficient information.

As long as I can do this, does it matter if I tell you this secret?

This is indeed the case.

At the same time, Lu Ming also knew in his heart that it was for this reason that

"Find someone else who has nothing to do with it, replace the members of the Destiny Organization or the members of the second action team, and succeed the sect leader so that he can know the secret", this possibility is also ruled out.

The reason is simple. The command of the second action team, the direction of investigation, cannot fall to irrelevant outsiders.

Because you can't guarantee their reliability. Those who can ensure reliability are unlikely to let them take extra risks.

When it comes to the calculations, only these four members of the Action 2 team can be the alternatives. Lu Ming said: "But the risk involved, captain, have you considered it?" Don't forget, the first three sect leaders all ended badly. Zhang Dingshan shook his head: "At least there is no threat to life." Living examples are here. "As long as you don't force yourself to know the secret, the person who knows the secret will not choose to commit suicide.

And, on the premise of knowing this consequence, even if Zhang Dingshan really knew the secret, would he be able to persecute him?

Obviously impossible. In this case, Zhang Dingshan's life is not at all threatened. But...... There may still be unpredictable risks.

He Wei gritted her teeth: "Captain, you can't go." Let me go. I'm going to succeed the leader. Zhang Dingshan shook his head: "According to the classics of the Destiny Organization, the successor sect leader must be a man. Although this account is not necessarily true.

Maybe it may be like the ritual of bathing in incense, praying sincerely and other dispensable things, but if you change to a woman to inherit the position of leader, there will always be a lot of risks.

Maybe the sarcophagus will treat He Wei as a pregnant woman who came to sacrifice, and then find out that He Wei is not pregnant, so he will directly treat He Wei herself as a fetus and deprive her of luck?

Without waiting for He Wei to speak, Lu Ming immediately said firmly: "I can too!" As soon as the words fell, he looked at the video interface and glanced at Lu Qingliang.

At the same time as he spoke, Lu Qingliang also said these four words at the same time. Zhang Dingshan shook his head again.

"Qingliang, you can't. You're back office. Lu Qingliang gritted his teeth, as if he was extremely conflicted. After a moment, he finally collapsed on the back of his chair.

Because of family factors, he couldn't even serve as a field officer, so he could only stay at the headquarters to do some back-office work.

If you can do this, you don't know how much you have paid, and in this case, you still want to succeed the sect leader?

Zhang Dingshan looked at Lu Ming: "You can't do it either." Lu Ming was stunned: "Why can't I?" ”

"Because you're a player, I'm the captain." Zhang Dingshan's words were very straightforward. Let me, the captain, not go up, and let my subordinates rush to the front line?

Is this kind of thing possible? Lu Ming thought for a moment, but still shook his head: "No, captain, I think that who will succeed the sect leader and thus know this secret is not the identity of the captain or team member, but who should be more suitable." I think I'm a better fit. Because, after knowing this secret, I can deduce more things from it, and I can better plan the follow-up investigation. "I'm afraid no one can deny this.

For a long time, Lu Ming has always played the role of a team think tank in the investigation of eucalyptus. Moreover, his performance also proves that he has enough qualifications and abilities to take on this role.

The previous few eucalyptus, if it weren't for Lu Ming, not to mention the second team of action, would definitely not be able to find out the eucalyptus, but it would be much more complicated and difficult.

Zhang Dingshan still rejected him.

"I think wisdom is really important in this eucalyptus. But...... More important than wisdom is will. Lu Ming was stunned.

"Lu Ming, we can almost conclude by now that this secret about the mountain god must be extremely amazing. So, are you sure that after knowing this secret, you can still maintain your state of mind and make a calm judgment? After a pause, Zhang Dingshan continued to say: "Okay, I admit that I am not sure. But, my certainty is at least higher than yours, right? Having said this, Lu Ming couldn't refute it at all.

Because it is. Zhang Dingshan stood up: "Okay." It's going to be fine. Let's get ready, and let's get started. This conferencing ends.

After that, Lu Ming and He Wei began the preliminary preparations in silence. When it was all done, the priestess was summoned again.

After hearing that this order turned out to be to make Zhang Dingshan the successor sect leader, the goddess was full of shock, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.

After that, his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Zhang Dingshan. In the past, for members of the Destiny Organization, becoming a Sect Master was certainly a dream thing.

But now, time has passed, and the position of sect leader has long been avoided by everyone like a snake and scorpion. Now, the sheriff in front of him is willing to take risks, which is really not an ordinary person.

Everything is ready, and the ceremony begins. However, this time the ceremony was a little different from the previous one.

This time, following Lu Ming's proposal, the second team of action simplified the ceremony process. Like the sacrifice of a pregnant woman and a pregnant animal, all the links that are suspected to be dispensable are eliminated, and only those links are retained

Four of the five core elements of "Moonlight, Hexagram, Masculine, Kick on the Ground, Before the Sarcophagus".

Yes, the first ceremony, even the moonlight reflection was temporarily eliminated. The purpose is naturally to further verify the test.

In the solemn sanctuary, accompanied by the sound of constant kicking on the ground, ten minutes later, the ceremony ended.

During this process, Lu Ming and He Wei always stared closely at Zhang Dingshan's figure. The remaining dozen or so armed guards were also ready to intervene at any time to obey orders.

Zhang Dingshan slowly raised his head, stood up from the ground, and looked at Lu Ming and He Wei.

"I didn't feel anything. The ritual is supposed to have failed. Come again. This time, wipe the hexagram off. Zhang Dingshan wiped off the six-pointed star depicted on his body, walked out of the cave and took a look at the moonlight for a while, and then came to the sarcophagus again.

But this time the ceremony still failed. Zhang Dingshan still couldn't feel anything. After that, he experimented with each of the five core elements, and finally confirmed that no matter which one was missing, the ritual would fail.

So in this sixth time, Zhang Dingshan integrated each of these five elements and began the ceremony again.

Under the gaze of Lu Ming and He Wei, Zhang Dingshan came to the place one and a half meters in front of the sarcophagus with a solemn expression, and then knelt down and supported the ground with both hands.

The goddess did not dance, but began to tap the ground with her feet. Zhang Dingshan's body was motionless.

He Wei and Lu Ming were also motionless. Lu Ming felt as if sweat was breaking out in his palms. He Wei's body was tense, like a bow full of strength, ready to shoot arrows at any time.

Time passed quietly, minute by minute. Gradually, five minutes passed. According to the experience of sacrificing pregnant animals in the past, five minutes is a sufficient length of time to take effect.

If the ceremony of succession to the head is the same as the ritual of sacrificing a pregnant woman and conceiving an animal, then the ritual should have been completed at this moment when the five elements are integrated.

Maybe...... Zhang Dingshan had sensed something. The goddess stopped tapping. Zhang Dingshan slowly stood up.

He turned his head to look at He Wei and Lu Ming, so Lu Ming found that Zhang Dingshan's body was trembling slightly.
