Chapter 89: Finding Clues
Shangguan Yi and the others left the garrison with the gale's large army, and rode their horses to the village, the village where everyone had died overnight.
"Do you really want to enter this realm with the gale?" The second looked at the two of them, who were wearing gale mask and gale cloak at his request, and couldn't tell whose it was at all, and asked again.
"Haven't we already decided to follow you? How can we escape from the battle when we are here?" Hua Xiangrong knew that Shangguan Yi actually didn't want her to come over, so she spoke first and explained the attitude of the two, anyway, this person would definitely not back down.
"Then are you ready to offend Liu Zhi? As long as you follow us to do this, it is equivalent to offending Liu Zhi to death, if you go to the East China Sea and never come back, then it naturally doesn't matter, no matter how much his hands and eyes reach the sky, he will not be able to reach the East China Sea. But I don't think you will leave Zhongzhen so simply and never come back, Liu Zhi, you should have heard of it, this time our action is equivalent to cutting off his financial route, just like killing his parents, Gale is ready to accept his revenge, but what about you?
Shangguan Yi looked at Hua Xiangrong and didn't speak, his attitude was already very clear, no matter who stood in the way, he was not afraid and would not back down, the key was Hua Xiangrong, whether it was for her own consideration or the bloody killing building behind her, she had to be cautious.
The martial arts family and the officialdom are still different, although some contradictions can be temporarily put down for the sake of sufficient interests, but the martial arts family has to think more, even if there is a grudge, there is a mortal vendetta, and if you want to revenge, you have to consider all aspects of the content before starting. Officialdom, as long as you have enough power, find a suitable reason, and live on the surface, you can do it to the martial arts family. In the final analysis, these are two different circles, and officialdom overrides martial arts to a certain extent.
Liu Shi is the secretary of the military department, he has great power, and even Emperor Zhongzhen loves him, he can't do this kind of thing very simply, so no one dares to poke him when he blatantly meddles in the chaotic place, and in the chaotic place, others also want to give him face, afraid that he will find an excuse to clean up the carp pond. After this action, it is inevitable to oppose him, in a sense, Gale and Shangguan Yi are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, and they don't have so many worries, but Hua Xiangrong is different, she is a bloody killer, this kind of organization is really easy to be troubled by someone, and once the government wants to engage in it, it is really uncomfortable and there is no way, and if you can't beat it, you can't beat it.
"It doesn't matter. Hua Xiangrong didn't think about it for too long, and gave the result directly.
Shangguan Yi looked at her and said, "Then it doesn't matter, the soldiers will come to block it, the water will come to cover it, there is always a way to deal with him." After all, feng shui takes turns. In fact, his words are full of deep meaning, when the time comes, everyone will have a spring breeze and a bad moment, if God does not give them the punishment they deserve, then it is up to him.
"Then let's move on, we can get to the place after half a day's journey. The second child knew that he couldn't persuade the two of them, everyone had their own ambitions, and they were all here, he shouldn't have persuaded him, but he couldn't help but say it, his temperament is still like this after all, too kind.
"So close?" Shangguan Yi frowned, finally knowing why Gale was suddenly about to move.
It's really a lone wolf, this wave of missions is really... It's too ingenious, under the pretext of carrying out a mission, coming to a place not far from the gale, and then making up a treasure that can't find the entrance, and doing some other tricks can attract waves of people, and there is nothing surprising that their main force comes here. But here's the problem, they really ran into a dead mouse and found an underground cemetery, which was a surprise, a lone wolf, and a gale.
The lone wolf is pleasantly surprised that there is an additional gain while eliminating the threat, killing two birds with one stone. However, Gale was pleasantly surprised that he noticed the movements and thoughts of the lone wolf, and secondly, he got a chance to breathe, and he could take this opportunity to fight back.
This is a joke made by the heavens, the blood debt must be paid with blood, and in this blood-stained village, more and more must die to appease the wrath of the gods.
"Well, it's close, indeed. The second child nodded lightly, agreeing with his statement, but did not explain anything. When he said the distance to the village, he had already finished what he had to say, and those who should understand naturally understood, and those who did not understand it were useless even if they explained it to him.
After driving for a long time, they arrived at the place, and from a distance, it was just an ordinary village, but they didn't expect that there could be such a secret underground.
"Wait a minute, I'll contact Gale Gale's informant here to see what the situation is now, and then make a decision. This is what the second child said to Shangguan Yi, although he did not point it out directly, but he did listen to the boss's words, treated Shangguan Yi as a strategist at the decision-making level, and did not have arrogance and independence.
Shangguan Yi naturally has no opinion, if it is not necessary, he doesn't even want to point fingers, just let the second child come at his pace, everyone has their own style, if they parachute in and grab the command, on the one hand, the tacit understanding and prestige are not enough, on the other hand, he is not familiar with all kinds of intelligence, it is better to be a salted fish with peace of mind, and then stand up as a dog-headed military advisor at a critical moment to guide the country.
The second child left the team to find the informant's information, Shangguan Yi felt the movement in the village, and had a little guess in his heart, maybe they were still looking for the entrance to the underground cemetery.
After a while, the second child came back and beckoned to Shangguan Yi and motioned for him to come over and discuss the next action strategy with a few of them. Shangguan Yi naturally would not refuse, dismounted and walked over, standing beside the second child, waiting for him to speak.
"The current situation is not much different from what came back before, except that the water is a little more turbid, there is no progress. The top ten mercenary groups on the black list have all sent people over, and the standard team configuration, except for the lone wolf and us who sent three teams over, only Junfeng and Yuehui are two teams, and the rest are one team. The leader of the lone wolf and some other cores are here, but now each family is looking for the entrance to the cemetery. The second child said it one by one, and the situation seemed to be different from what they thought.
According to their ideas, it's just a cemetery, and no matter how unbearable the lone wolf is, it won't be able to find the entrance, and when they get here, they can directly enter the cemetery to start the next plan, but now...
"Do you know whose grave this is?" the boss was also a little surprised. Knowing himself and his opponent, he still knows a lone wolf very well. Although the character is unbearable, but to be honest, there are still two brushes in all aspects, otherwise they would not have mixed up with this status, and now even they haven't found it, even Jun Feng and Yuehui have not found it for so long, there must be something wrong with it.
"I don't know, the lone wolf knows that there is a cemetery here or by coincidence saw the memorial text of a tablet when the village chief prayed for blessings in the ancestral hall. It's been a long time, and there is no maintenance, the content of that sacrificial text is already a little blurred, but just look at the specifications of the sacrificial text and the gold seal at the end of the text to know that the person's official position is not low, at least the prince and the prince will have to occupy one of the four words, and it is a beautiful burial, so they are like beasts that smell fish. The second shook his head and told him what he knew.
The specifications of the memorial text are strictly required here, it does not mean that you have literary talent, and the deceased person has a close relationship with you, you can write a 35,000-word memorial text to pay tribute to him, and even the person who wrote the memorial text must be a professional member of the Ministry of Rites or an authorized person. The meaning of the golden seal is even more unusual, it is the seal that the emperor stamped on his sacrifice after the death of a respected person, and the meaning is extraordinary. No one dares to forge it, this is a great sin to punish the nine clans.
"It seems that the purpose of the establishment of this village was actually to guard the tomb of this person in the first place, right? It has been passed down from generation to generation, and the original purpose has long been forgotten, and in this generation the mission has completely ended, and there is no need to carry it out again. That's why they didn't know the entrance to the cemetery, and how could the tomb keepers guard and steal from themselves? Shangguan Yi sighed, but he didn't expect the first step to be stuck.
"Is that sacrificial text still there?" the third asked suddenly.
"The reply given by the lone wolf is to prevent the spread of the plague, most of the things in the village should not be touched, and some of the things touched by the plague infected have also been burned, so most of the things in the ancestral hall have been burned, and the sacrificial text is naturally gone. The second child said helplessly, they haven't figured out what is going on about the plague yet, but he is very disdainful of this kind of thing that destroys people's ancestral halls at every turn. It is very likely that it was to prevent others from finding any clues after seeing the memorial text, so the sacrificial text was burned or even hidden.
"It looks like there is a ghost in my heart, could it be that there is any key information in that sacrificial text?" Shangguan Yi frowned, and he had a vague premonition that was not very good.
The boss also said a little sarcastically: "I can't imagine that the lone wolf has made an article on this, hehe, all the information that is known so far is obtained from them, I don't know if they want us to know or if we really got the correct information." ”
The third nodded and said, "Be steady." ”
His two words are enough to show the attitude of these people on the scene, this incident is very important to them, but the more important it is, the more careful and prudent they must be. Especially when a lot of important information is not clear, you must be extra careful, and if you miss it, it will become a thousand years of hatred, and it will make them irreversible.
"Then the three teams will be separated, each looking for clues to the entrance, be careful, and send a signal when something is wrong. The boss made a final summary.
Then, the eldest and the third took the team to the village to look for clues, even if it has been searched I don't know how many times, there may still be clues, and some information is also hidden in the village, you must go and see it in person. Anyway, they all came to dismantle the lone wolf platform, and by the way, they took over the task of investigating the truth about the destruction of the village.
"Let's go, let's take someone to search for it. The second child turned around and was about to lead the team in another direction, but Shangguan Yi pulled his sleeve.
"What's wrong?" the second asked with a little surprise.
"It's good to leave it to the two teams in the village, they can handle it, and we'll go outside to find clues. Shangguan Yi stared into his eyes and said, after saying this, his voice became quieter, and he continued in a voice that only two people could hear: "There may be clues in the village, but it is unlikely that there is an entrance to the cemetery, after all, so many teams are searching this place, if there is, it should have been discovered a long time ago." It's better to do the opposite, go outside and search for clues. Don't be so surprised, no matter what happens from now on, you have to keep a calm and calm demeanor, as expected. I think we may have been watched, from the moment we entered the village, it was so. This feeling comes from the outside, not from the inside, and other mercenary groups have to be wary of us, but they are not so cautious and aggressive, just like we are wary of Jun Feng but we don't always send people to watch their every move, because we don't want to fight with them. So I guess it's a lone wolf, out there, and trying to lure us out. ”
The second child straightened his face, calmly and calmly returned to the team with Shangguan Yi.
At this time, the triple heaven master in the team attached to his ear and said, "We are being targeted, people outside, I don't know which side." ”
"Got it. The second child nodded, unsurprisingly looking very sure, as if he had known it for a long time. Hua Xiangrong's demeanor next to her also told Shangguan Yi that she also felt something similar.
"Okay, let this guest secretary tell you the direction of our next action, and I'll think about other issues. With a finger of his hand, the second child signaled Shangguan Yi, a wage earner, to say what he thought, and he pretended to be contemplative to control the overall situation, but in fact he was just in a hurry and couldn't do anything.
"The head of the regiment went to the village to look for clues, so let's not get involved, go outside to see if there are any valuable clues, and then look at the situation to decide the next step. First of all, let's go to the back mountain. "Shangguan Yi doesn't shirk either, just a worker, anyway, he came to work.
The second child stood behind Shangguan Yi and supported him, and what he said was not unreasonable, so no one objected to him, and obediently followed him to climb the back mountain.
Their measures naturally fell into the eyes of others, but they didn't care, it was good to try their luck elsewhere, anyway, they searched here enough, and they felt that there was nothing, but they were afraid of missing the clues that might exist.
The group followed the road to the back mountain, Shangguan Yi squinted, they didn't go fast along the way, and the feeling of surveillance also followed them, and it was always around them, guiding them to the back mountain. The purpose is obvious, what is hidden in the back mountain? Or is it that the lone wolf has found the entrance to the cemetery, and even explored this cemetery, and now wants to use the cemetery mechanism to do something to them? It is no wonder that not only Gale feels that it is a good choice to clean up the main force of the lone wolf here, but the lone wolf also thinks so, so it is not certain who is the hunter in this wolf hunt.
Thinking about it, Shangguan Yi remained silent and didn't tell anyone else. He didn't want to startle the snake, let's see what the lone wolf wanted to do, in short, just don't let the gale enter the cemetery first, the situation is really wrong.
"What's next, what are you going to do?" Hua Xiangrong asked as they took the lead after they climbed the back mountain.
Shangguan Yi gave the second child a look, and the latter said knowingly: "Divide into teams, go and explore if there is anything wrong around, be more careful, and call someone over if you find it." ”
With his order, everyone scattered in groups in an orderly manner to explore the back mountain, and the well-trained appearance made Shangguan Yi feel a little relieved. As they left, Shangguan Yi continued to go up, and after reaching the top of the mountain, he stood on a tree and looked in the direction of the village, which was the reason why he originally wanted to come to the back mountain, and the atmosphere of the village and the village gave him a vague feeling of unusualness, perhaps a problem of feng shui.
Now that I look at it, there is really a problem, the village is like a sleeping dragon closing its eyes, this tomb should have left a shadow for future generations, let them recuperate, and give birth to heroes. But there was an accident and he became a dead dragon, not only did it play its due role, but it also had a bloody glow in the sky, which became the setting of the fierce situation. If this cemetery, the layout of this village was like this from the beginning, how many virtues did the people in the village accumulate to protect them before they were destroyed now?
For a big force, Feng Shui is the most important factor in the choice of foundation. Feng Shui affects luck, and luck determines success or failure to a large extent, even if it sounds like an evil way, but no one will really abandon it, just pick a random place and set up camp and develop power. In the final analysis, there is still a little superstition in human nature, and they say that they don't believe it, but they still have their own metaphysics.
"Do you see what?" Hua Xiangrong saw him standing on the tree for a long time, and the solemnity in his eyes seemed to have the power to crush people, what did he see? Looking at feng shui and terrain, could it be that he was still a half-hung feng shui master?
Why add a half-hanger ... Of course, after in-depth contact with him along the way, Hua Xiangrong's evaluation of various things in Shangguan Yihui is miscellaneous but not refined, and everything will be a little bit, but it is more than enough to be less than the top, and it is not proficient, but it can barely come in handy. Although it is already very good for him to have such a craft, he is still improving, and if he is willing to study these things in the future at a very high level, he will have some effects, and he will be an all-round ghost talent that everyone admires and worships. But now, it's a stinky brother.
"We need to be more cautious on this trip, if we do want to enter the cemetery, our greatest danger may not be the lone wolf mercenary group and their arrangement, but this cemetery. Shangguan Yi said his guess, although as Hua Xiangrong thought, he was indeed half-witted and didn't know much about feng shui, but it was so obvious that if he couldn't see any abnormality, it would be either stupid or blind.
"Bang. "There was a muffled sound, followed by a signal - there was a discovery, come quickly.
The second child said: "Hurry up, I found the situation over there, I feel that there should be a harvest, maybe we are the first to find clues this time." ”
Shangguan Yi grabbed his hand, leaned into his ear and said in a subtle voice: "No matter what you find next, the people of Gale Can't be the first to enter the cemetery, if I don't agree, it's better not to make any decisions that affect the trend, I feel that this place is too evil, believe me." ”
He didn't know what Shangguan Yi had discovered, but was Shangguan Yi a person who was afraid of death? Maybe he was, but he was by no means a cowardly person, and a timid person dared to take the risk of offending the Mo family to kill Mo Ying? A timid person dared to go all the way to the chaotic place with a brazen swagger? A timid person dared to join them and go against the lone wolf, Liu Zhi? So at this time, Shangguan Yi should not want to retreat, but really dangerous, even if he can't see where the danger is, maybe this is the gap between geniuses and ordinary people, right? Anyway, the eldest brother and the third brother didn't plan to bring themselves over, but because of this kid in charge, they changed their minds, but let themselves listen to this kid's opinion at a critical moment, and now may be a critical moment.
The second child nodded imperceptibly, signaling that he understood, and then led a few of them to rush over there quickly. When they arrived, they found that they were the last team to arrive, and the most incompetent.
"Report to the second regiment leader, there is a very secret cave here, and there is an ancient stone tablet in the innermost part of the cave, and the words on the stone tablet seem to be a little too old for anyone to recognize. The stele seems to be able to move, but we didn't try it, but based on its material, it is speculated that its weight should be extremely amazing, at least it is difficult for ordinary people in the double heaven to shake. The leader of the team that discovered the cave reported to the second child excitedly, and in this situation, according to the rules of the gale, the team that made the first progress would be rewarded.
Shangguan Yi looked at the hole that was covered by vines and weeds layer by layer, and the corners of his mouth twitched, can you find the singularity, classmate Watson??
"Well done! Yours are indispensable for returning rewards, don't worry. The second child praised twice, and glanced at Shangguan Yi, he was asking if he wanted to go in and have a look. The latter nodded, since the team has already gone in to investigate, then there should be no threat, after all, there are no clues now, although it is necessary to pay a greater price and take greater risks to get more clues, but this is also inevitable, after all, they have no way back.
"Then you can take us in and have a look, the others will stay here, please. The second child didn't hesitate, and directly let the squad leader lead the way, and the others guarded the outside, but the last sentence was said to the master of the triple heaven, after all, only the triple heaven can really have the right to speak in this operation, and no one else can.
