Chapter 452: The Truth You Shouldn't Know
Bai Xiao tried hard to recall what he had seen and heard in an instant.
When the curator Duan Bao was brought up by Qingyue for questioning, Bai Xiao vaguely saw a pale eye.
An eyeball that appears in the dark abyss.
That picture only flashed in his mind, but Bai Xiao still cautiously raised his guard.
He took action one step ahead of Qing Yue and Lan Lan, and the pitch-black bone spear was already in his hand before Duan Bao opened his mouth.
And with the acumen of a snowy mountain hunter, once he enters a state of full concentration, it is almost impossible to let go of any hostility that approaches.
However, when Bai Xiao was already engrossed, Duan Bao turned into powder without warning.
After that, whether it was Lan Lan's near-venting mine fire impact, or Qing Yue's Blood Moon Realm trying to trace time and space and capture the truth, they were actually all gone.
It's still the kind of thing that is too late to make up for it.
Bai Xiao also tried the ability he had just acquired, he used the bone spear to ignite a number of elemental pools in the Flame King Court, and obtained the submission of countless ancient souls, and this part of the power was all pinned on the bone spear.
These unjust souls are all heretics who have been suppressed by the Flame King, and they have the power of a hundred ancient schools, although they have become mixed and weak after years of suppression, and they cannot be freely controlled by Bai Xiao. But when Bai Xiao flashed the bone spear, these miscellaneous resentful spirits could at least play a similar role as a chargeback.
Even if you can't stop the opponent, at least you can tell where the opponent is coming from.
It's a pity that in the end, Bai Xiao also returned in vain, from the wailing sound in the bone spear, Bai Xiao only heard confusion and helplessness.
Now that I think about it, the eyeballs that suddenly pop into my mind are simply full of provocation.
I have come and gone, but you have nothing to do with me.
Looking at the dust of the corpses remaining on the ground, Bai Xiao lightly touched it with the bone spear, but sure enough, he still couldn't get any feedback, so he didn't waste time trying, but sat back and waited for his companions to uncover the mystery.
Qing Yue carefully took out a glass bottle and put some of the samples on the ground into the bottle.
Lan Lan danced lightly, trying to summon the souls of the deceased, and soon a row of gray spirits were summoned, but unfortunately most of them were wandering ghosts and wild ghosts wandering around, and the fresh and hot spirits of the curator were nowhere to be found.
Lan Lan checked a few, then lost interest, and waved his bone staff to overtake the many undead in the queue behind him.
Looking at the unscrupulous appearance of several people, Wan Junzhu was simply powerless, and wanted to say something, but finally decided to shut up.
I'm just a tour guide, not a sheriff, not to mention that even if I am the sheriff of Hope Harbor, is it difficult to manage these snow-capped uncles?
On the other hand, he was indeed curious about the truth of the matter.
What do the inexplicable thieves in the museum, the inexplicable murder and extermination, what do the masterminds behind the scenes want to hide? How can this Ten Thousand Thunder Pillars, which have been lying in the exhibition hall of the museum for thousands of years, suddenly become something unsightly?
As a young Demon Dao master, Wan Junzhu was of course also curious and curious, and seeing that several snow-capped mountain boys and girls had divided their labor and began to deal with the remains at the scene, he couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on?"
The most patient and qualified person to explain here is naturally Qingyue.
The girl also knew everything: "Our exploration report in the Void Realm has obviously touched the nerves of many people, and these unsightly things must naturally be cleaned up and dealt with as soon as possible." ”
Wan Junzhu is also one of the few people who have read the report of the Void Realm, and he was surprised by Qing Yue's bold speculation, but at this time he was a little puzzled: "What is so unsightly about this Ten Thousand Thunder Pillar?"
Qingyue sighed: "One of the core points I put forward in the report is that the Elemental Dynasty is closely related to the Outer Heaven Demon, and the Ten Thousand Thunder Pillars are an important legacy left by the Thunder Dynasty, why don't you say you can meet people?"
Wan Junzhu suddenly woke up, only feeling creepy.
Qing Yue said again: "The thing that is really worth worrying about is not Wan Lei Zhu. Dean Wan, you have to think about it from another angle: the report of Blazing Feather Island has not yet been released to the public, and there are not many people who can see it, but the people behind the scenes have already prepared, so is it easy to lock down the identity of the people behind the scenes?"
Wan Junzhu was stunned for a moment, and then cold sweat oozed out.
Indeed, the person who is qualified to browse the report now is not a well-known figure in the Demon Dao Realm, and even more deeply, the other party can make the curator of the Hope Harbor Museum die like an ant, and there are only a handful of people with this energy in the Shengyuan Empire!
Being able to narrow down the scope of suspects seems to be a good thing, but then specifically locking on any one person will cause the Holy Yuan Empire to be turned upside down.
Wan Junzhu is just a former famous disciple who is burdened with a heavy historical burden, and he really can't withstand the wind and waves.
Qingyue continued to add fuel to the fire: "The worst result is that there is more than one black person behind the scenes,
They have already infiltrated all aspects of the Shengyuan Empire, and they are usually dormant, but once they are activated, they are what we see in front of us. ”
Wan Junzhu couldn't help but retort: "The Shengyuan Empire is guarded by the Speaker Chief, how can there be such a secret organization!"
Qingyue smiled: "Then the problem is even more serious, you are accusing the speaker of being behind the scenes." ”
Wan Junzhu was speechless for a moment, and then trembled.
Qing Yue said again: "I personally deduce that the situation is not so bad, if the Speaker is behind the scenes, then there is no need for him to open the Flame Court for us at all. But the problem now is that there are obvious gaps in the Speaker's protective net. ”
Wan Junzhu was extremely reluctant to admit this conclusion in his heart, as the demon master of the younger generation of the Shengyuan Empire, he could be said to have grown up bathed in the legend of the first person in the world, and his trust in Speaker Zhou Yu was deeply rooted and unshakable.
But from a rational point of view, it is difficult to say that this scene is happening in front of the speaker with the deliberate connivance of the speaker speaker, so it can only be attributed to the fact that the speaker does not take care of it.
"The Shengyuan Empire has a long history, counting the ancient period, civilization has been passed down for thousands of years, and Speaker Zhou's protection has only been more than a hundred years, so it is ridiculous to think that he is omnipotent. ”
Qing Yue had already sorted out a few glass bottles in her hand as she spoke, which collected all kinds of debris dust left in the exhibition hall by category.
"The clues here have been sorted out, Dean Wan asks you to deal with the follow-up. ”
"Follow-up?"
Qingyue looked out the window and saw that the greasy middle-aged man at the door had already panicked and yelled at a shiny metal piece in his hand...... He's calling the police!
"What is he talking about?" I will listen to ......" Lan Lan poked his head out with interest, "My father is the director of the tax office, what does this have to do with his father?"
Wan Junzhu only heard that his scalp was numb, and he said in his heart, these bastards in Hope Harbor have really lost the face of the entire Shengyuan Empire!
So he hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "Leave the follow-up to me!"
Qingyue smiled: "Then please." ”
Wan Junzhu, who was called as a subordinate, finally felt relieved.
In fact, even if he doesn't have that greasy middle-aged, he would rather deal with chores.
After all, compared to continuing to discuss the truth of the matter with Qingyue, subverting the three views and dealing with some chores is simply relaxing and leisurely.
What's more, he is the dean of the Demon Dao Academy in Thunder Stone City after all, and his status is undoubtedly an upper-class nobleman in the entire Shengyuan Empire.
Then get back all the dignity you just lost in front of the tribesmen!
——
After throwing off Wan Junzhu for the time being, Qingyue took Bai Xiao Lanlan to a small restaurant outside the museum.
The girl had a smile on her face: "This 'Mei Zhi Xuan' is very famous in Hope Port, and the northern fried meatballs are a century-old famous dish, and many businessmen who travel back and forth between the East and West Continents will recommend this place." ”
"Eh, it seems that you didn't read in vain on the ship. Lan Lan rarely praised his rival, "It just so happened that I just let go of the elemental torrent, and my stomach was hungry." ”
Bai Xiao doesn't care at all, Qingyue and Lan Lan want to taste the food, and he is responsible for doing a good job of escorting.
It's just that in my mind, I can't get rid of the afterimage left by the pale eyeballs.
"Don't overthink it. Qingyue patted him on the shoulder, "This is just the beginning, there are still opportunities ahead." ”
Bai Xiao looked at Qingyue, waiting for her to explain further.
"That's what I thought...... Qingyue took a sip of hot tea, and then immediately frowned at the taste of inferior tea, "Uh, we're here to visit the museum, it's essentially improvised." Although it was indeed Wan Junzhu who made the suggestion, I thought about it repeatedly and still thought it was just a coincidence. ”
Bai Xiao also agrees with this.
"So of course, it is only a coincidence that we broke through the museum director's supervision and self-theft and transferred cultural relics. In fact, judging from the reaction of the other party, they were caught off guard by us. ”
Bai Xiao nodded.
Qingyue said again: "One coincidence can be said to be a coincidence, and two coincidences are superimposed, then it can only be said to be inevitable." According to my speculation, there are countless cases like the Hope Port Museum in the Shengyuan Empire, and there are still too many relics like the Ten Thousand Thunder Pillars. It's just that until our exploration report came out, no one had ever realized the value of these thousand-year-old artifacts that ran through the Elemental Dynasty, or rather, those who were hiding behind the scenes never thought that their existence would be revealed so quickly. ”
After a pause, Qing Yue came to a conclusion: "The entire Eastern Continent is a fertile land to be cultivated, and if you want to find clues, there are opportunities. On the other hand, if you are distracted by what you just did, you may lose more important goals. ”
Lan Lan wrinkled her nose and said, "Well, although I am unwilling, I can only agree with the flat-chested woman this time." I also think that there is no need to pay attention to these messy trivial matters, let's go directly to Thunderstone City and dig up the relics that have been preserved for us for 1800 years, and the truth will naturally be revealed!"
