"Quick, keep up."

The clear smell of blood made the armed police realize that something was wrong.

When they approached, the scene that greeted them surprised everyone.

Zhao Guoan looked stunned, "How can this be?" ”

As far as the eye could see, there were all corpses, and the blood flowed on the ground, almost converging into a stream, and the ground could be said to be a mess.

There was hardly a single intact place around, there were collapsed walls everywhere, and broken boulders that left deep marks on them, and it is not known how they were caused.

In addition, there are thunder and lightning scorching, and plants and trees that have been burned by fire, and those who don't know that this place has experienced a world war, and all kinds of pictures are full of weirdness.

However, based on their extensive experience, these marks do not look like weapons can inflict them.

"It's really weird, could it be that there was a group of people who came early before this?"

The crowd can be said to be incredible.

Zhao Guoan didn't care about being surprised, and hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and see if there is any living mouth." ”

He had to figure out what's going on here!

No wonder there was no sound in the darkness of the auction house, and their operation was unexpectedly smooth this time, it turned out that these people were all dead.

Judging from the costumes of these people, all of them are thugs or mercenaries from the auction house.

Why did they die suddenly, could it be that there was internal turmoil? Or are there other forces that are acting before them and want to eat black?

Many questions came to Zhao Guoan's mind.

"Captain! There's also a live mouth here. ”

Sun Haonan's voice pulled Zhao Guoan's thoughts back to reality, and he hurriedly rushed over to check.

The man lying on the ground, his face was covered with blood, I don't know if he was cut by something sharp, and there were traces of bullets on his arm.

Zhao Guoan was suspicious, "What happened to you here?" ”

This man is a poisonous snake, at this moment, his eyes are frightened, his facial features have become extremely distorted, he has long been no longer as vicious and vicious as before, he grabbed Zhao Guoan's hands tightly, and said angrily:

"Demon ...... Blame! ”

"Yes, a youkai attacked us!"

Hearing this, everyone showed an expression of disbelief, thinking that they had heard a hallucination.

Monster?

However, when Zhao Guoan still wanted to ask, the poisonous snake seemed to use all his strength, his hands hung down, his pupils gradually dilated, and his eyes became gray.

The poisonous snake was seriously injured, and it was just a return to the light and a breath of force.

Sun Haonan probed his snort, shook his head and said, "The captain is out of breath." ”

The viper's expression before he died was terrified, and he didn't know what he had experienced before he died.

No one took what he just said to heart, what age is this, how can there be a monster, maybe this person was stimulated, so he talked nonsense.

But they had faint doubts in their hearts, if it was nonsense, why did he say such a thing, and what was his intention?

Zhao Guoan and the others checked around, but they didn't find any live mouths, but found a few strange points.

"Some people have gunshot wounds on their bodies, which are also their own bullets, and they should have been accidentally injured in the scuffle."

Zhao Guoan pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that there is turmoil within them?" ”

Sun Haonan observed the corpses on the ground, "Most of the wounds on people are very strange. ”

I saw that the bodies of these people saw traces of being burned by fire, as well as water stains, and even traces of being struck by lightning, which can be said to be varied, and it is difficult to judge what kind of weapon caused it.

It's the same as the traces left by the boulders on the walls before.

Zhao Guoan glanced at the corner of his eyes, as if he had found something, and suddenly squatted down.

"What's wrong with the captain?"

Zhao Guoan pointed to the ground, "Look here." ”

Following his gaze, there were many messy animal footprints on the ground, some large and some small, and the largest footprint was even the size of an adult's palm, which should be some kind of large beast.

A lot of animal hair was also found on the ground, and Zhao Guoan carefully twisted a tuft of golden hair on the ground, his eyes full of doubts.

"It's so strange, first these strange wounds, and then the traces of wild beasts, could it be that a group of animals really came here before?"

He couldn't help but think of the Viper's dying words.

Yokai attack?

It's just that it sounds like a fantasy.

If the animals did attack them, why would they attack the group for no reason.

It stands to reason that if they were really attacked, they should have scratches and bite marks on their bodies, but the wounds of these people are really strange, and they don't look like animals can cause them at all.

The most important thing is that this group of people still has guns in their hands, but there is not even a single animal corpse on the ground except for the corpses of these people.

This group of mercenaries is well-trained, not to mention every shot, but it is impossible not to kill even an animal.

All in all, from the information available so far, it all reveals an anomaly.

The armed police continued to search, and found a lot of precious cultural relics in the warehouse of the auction house, in addition to the auction house itself illegally obtained, there were also other forces, several large boxes piled up in a dazzling array of boxes.

Previously, Zhao Guoan suspected that it was internal turmoil, or black eating black, so this group of people would be attacked by an unexpected unknown, but now none of the precious cultural relics have been lost, which is enough to prove that this mysterious force is not coming for cultural relics.

"Bring these things back and count them first, and then bring back these corpses."

After cleaning up the scene, the sky had already revealed a white look of fish belly, and a touch of blue dispelled the original darkness, and finally lifted the haze overhead, allowing the light to fall down.

The smell of blood in the air was almost gone, and after the corpses were removed, there was no sign that there had been a great battle here.

For this operation, Zhao Guoan had already prepared for casualties, but he didn't expect it to be completed so simply and quickly, and even returned with a full load, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

The overseas antiquities smuggling syndicate was the largest base in East Asia, and many of the cultural relics they had acquired were confiscated.

Zhao Guoan reported the good news to the domestic Wudu Garrison District as soon as possible.

"You did a good job this time, not only dealt a heavy blow to this overseas cultural relics organization, but also recovered a lot of cultural relics."

Through the phone, he could feel the excitement and excitement of the upper echelons, but he didn't see the embarrassed looks of Zhao Guoan and the others on the other end of the phone.

"Leader—"

Hearing Zhao Guoan's rambling words, the chief on the other end of the phone was obviously a little puzzled.

"Anything else?"

"Actually, this operation has nothing to do with us, when we rush over, the matter is already over, we just closed it and picked up a leak."

There was a long silence on the phone.

If it weren't for the fact that he was still on the call, Zhao Guoan would have thought that there was no one there.

After a while, the leader's confused voice came, "Tell me more about it." ”

Zhao Guoan concisely told what happened at the scene, and at the same time passed back the photos and pictures of the scene.

"All in all, we don't know what's going on, the preliminary judgment is that there is another mysterious force before us, and the auction house has been put in a pot, and according to the current clues, it is impossible to know who did it."

After the upper echelons saw the information he sent back, they caused a lot of shock, and immediately launched an analysis and launched an investigation into various forces in Burma, but there were no clues.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Guoan has been thinking about this problem.

All thanks to another mysterious organization, that is, the fierce beast that caused the death of these people, to put it bluntly, Zhao Guoan and they just picked up a leak.

The strange scars on the corpse, as well as the traces left by the animals at the scene, and the words spoken by the poisonous snake, kept floating in Zhao Guoan's ears.

What's the connection between all this?

Except for the parties involved, I am afraid that no one knows what happened that night, but unfortunately no one present survived, and Zhao Guoan and they could not get more useful clues.

Sun Haonan next to him seemed to have discovered something, and couldn't help muttering, "There won't be such a coincidence, right?" ”

Seeing that he had been staring at the phone screen, Zhao Guoan couldn't help but ask, "What happened?" ”

Sun Haonan handed over his mobile phone, "I just swiped a very interesting piece of online news." ”

The news is about a group of strange animals found by netizens near Southern Province, the largest beast turned out to be a tiger, and there were many small animals in it, which attracted the attention of many passers-by.

After all, tigers are solitary animals, and they can't get along with their own kind, let alone other animals.

According to the last eyewitnesses, the strange group eventually disappeared on the border between Southern Province and Burma, and then no one ever saw them again.

"Captain, you said that the footprints we saw at the auction site couldn't be left by this group of animals?"

The strange group of animals appeared at a coincidental time, just short before their move.

And judging from the footprints at the scene, there are big and small, which is very consistent with the content described in the news.

The last words left by the poisonous snake were also attacked by animals and monsters, and they didn't care about it at first, but now it seems to be thought-provoking.

Could it really be that the animals killed them?

But what about those strange wounds on the corpse? It doesn't look like animals can do it.

Although Zhao Guoan and the others did not believe the statement of the poisonous snake before he died, judging from the clues now, the whole thing was shrouded in a layer of suspicion called "monster attack".

Since the murderer could not be found in the end, and the task was completed, the matter was also over, and the people who died were some of the most heinous people anyway.

However, in the Burmese area, there is a rumor that on that night, a group of monsters broke into the auction house and went on a killing spree.

The news also spread back to the territory of Great Xia, including Sun Zhenbang, who had been paying close attention to this matter.

After all, it was he who followed up on this case before, and he was the first to discover the base of this smuggling syndicate in Burma, so he was rewarded for his meritorious deeds and also gave him great credit.

"Animal attacks? Youkai killing? ”

Hearing the director's words, Sun Zhenbang's face was full of fantasy expressions.

The director was also full of red faces, after all, he had also won the praise from above, "According to the news reported by the armed police force, when they felt it, the people in the auction house were almost dead."

After listening to the details of what happened, Sun Zhenbang's expression also changed from the previous shock to complexity, and finally a look of clarity crossed in the depths of his eyes.

"All in all, this overseas cultural relics group can be said to be a big injury, after our heavy blow, it is estimated that we will not dare to come to Daxia for a long time."

The director said a few words of praise, but Sun Zhenbang didn't have the heart to listen to it anymore.

Others didn't know who the murderer was, but Sun Zhenbang had a faint guess in his heart that this matter might be inseparable from the one on Longyuan Mountain.

In addition to the mountain god, who else has such great skills?

Previously, Sun Zhenbang had heard from the village chief that the animals in the mountains were quite abnormal, and now those who want to kill the Quartet in the auction house are likely to be the subordinates of the mountain god.

Who told that group of people to bother again and again, and even wanted to kidnap Hu Xiaocao before, it was simply audacious, if you think about it like this, it seems that everything can be strung together.

No matter what the mountain god was for, he invisibly helped Sun Zhenbang and them a lot.

……

At this moment, the Siberian tigers are already on their way back, and they can be said to be in good spirits after completing a big deal.

On the way back, passing through the highway, it was inevitable that passers-by would capture it, and when this picture was uploaded to the Internet again, it inevitably caused some discussion.

"It's strange, it's been so long, and this combination hasn't fallen apart, and not a single animal is missing."

"They seem to have disappeared from the Burma area, but now they have run back? Dare to love this is a trip abroad. ”

"I didn't expect them to be able to live in harmony for so long, is this an interracial friendship?"

"Is there a zoology to explain their behavior? It doesn't feel like the animals were on a whim, but rather premeditated. ”

Because of the strange behavior of these animals, it has attracted the attention of many netizens, and they have once again focused their attention on it.

In the end, it was found that the animals had entered the province of Wudu.

Because the fog is mountainous, the mountains are endless, and in the end I don't know where they went, leaving an infinite reverie.

At the same time, the military also saw the news incident, and they had previously carried out a detailed investigation based on the information brought back by Zhao Guoan and others, as well as the last words of the poisonous snake, but the final result was nothing, but this news appeared at this juncture.

"Could it be that it was really the animals that attacked the auction house?"

"How can animals have such great ability, could it be that someone is playing tricks."

"It can't really be a youkai, right?"

The military discussed a lot, and there was no concrete result after the discussion, so it was naturally impossible to believe that there were real monsters, but all kinds of bizarre things could not be explained. In the end, this case can only be put aside, no matter what the force is, but it is obviously friendly to Great Xia.

……

Ye Qin didn't know about the Siberian tigers in the outside world, and at this moment he was still refining magic weapons in the mountains.

The fire has been burning for several days and nights, and the surrounding temperature is getting higher and higher, and the surrounding flowers and trees have lost a lot of water, and the leaves have become a little curled.

The time for refining magic weapons was longer than Ye Qin imagined, and it was also possible that it was the first time to refine it, and it was not proficient.

But the hard work paid off, and the original shapeless embryo finally gradually had a silhouette under Ye Qin's careful polishing, which was also a good start.

Ye Qin increased the output of spiritual power, cautiously, like treating fragile glass, if he failed, it would be a waste of his previous efforts.

The soft power wrapped the embryo, and there seemed to be a pair of invisible big hands in the air constantly carving, and the golden pill in Ye Qin's body slowly moved, filling with golden silk threads, outlining the tire.

The mass gradually turned into an oval, and the rough outline of it was faintly visible.

The ink-colored body, like a fine obsidian, exudes an inexplicable luster, with three legs on top of the body, and the mouth of the tripod derives ears, and the quaint tripod is forged by flames.

Like the phoenix nirvana, it finally radiated new vitality, the fire gradually became smaller, and it was more able to see its whole picture more clearly.

On the pitch-black roof, there are all kinds of ancient and mysterious creatures, including strange-looking three-legged birds, dragons soaring through the clouds, thick and coiled hideous ancient vines, and strange and magical flowers.

The small body is all-encompassing, endless, and seems to have the meaning of endless life, and in the majesty, it reveals a little breath of life, containing the strength of the essence.

Every time Ye Qin forges, he will inject the qi of heaven and earth into it, so from the inside out, the body of the tripod also constantly exudes aura, which can be said to be extremely full.

"It's just the last point."

Ye Qin's eyes were shining, and the snake pupils suddenly bloomed with several divine flowers, and the aura around Xiao Ding was almost able to form a substance, all of which were absorbed, and his whole body was shining with dazzling light.

"Zheng—"

As it completely condensed and formed, there was a humming sound in the void, like a whisper on the avenue, and a quaint aura greeted him.

The pattern on the top of the tripod seems to come to life, the birds are circling, the auspicious clouds come, the ancient vines cover the sky and the sun, and the gorgeous and complex flowers bloom in them, like a vivid picture scroll, slowly spreading.

The dark color of the small tripod floats in the air, like the existence of the stars and the moon, showing the supreme mystery.

In an instant, the wind stopped and the clouds stopped, as if they were going to make way for its birth.

Ye Qin looked at the tripod in front of him, it was completely different from the previous feeling, if it was just a tool to take advantage of before, at this moment his spirit has been invisibly connected with the tripod, and he can sense the strong power coming from above.

"It seems that the results of the first refining are not bad."

Xiao Ding slowly fell on Ye Qin's side, his heart moved at will, if Ye Qin refining the pill now, the effect would definitely be better than before, and the current Ding did not only have the effect of refining medicine.

The animals that were watching not far away also applauded and celebrated at this moment, chattering to celebrate Ye Qin's final refining success.

Just as Ye Qin was admiring the newly forged magic weapon, a strange feeling suddenly rose in his heart, not only him, but even the animals around him also felt abnormal.

The animal that had been quiet suddenly became a little restless, and there it was chattering non-stop.

"What's going on?"

Ye Qin suddenly had an uneasy premonition in his heart, and his gaze fell in the distance, only to see the trees swaying, and countless birds were startled, hovering in mid-air.

He hurriedly released his spiritual power, and felt that seemingly nonexistent fluctuation was actually coming from underground.

Although the power of this wave is small, it is spreading towards the ground at a rapid speed, and the range of fluctuations is rapidly expanding.

Ye Qin's pupils crossed a solemn look.

"It's an earthquake!" (End of chapter)
