A few days later.

A few days ago, they received information that a cargo ship had disappeared on the Jiulong River, and that the more than 10 crew members on board, including the captain, had no news at all.

For several days, they had searched hundreds of miles of the river, but they could not find even a trace.

"Captain Liu, do you think it will be on that river?" said a soldier with a slightly immature face.

This soldier's name is Wang Ke, and he is a recruit who only joined the army last year, and it is also the first time to go on a mission. After a few days of searching, everyone else was exhausted, but he was still in high spirits.

"It's not a route over there, what are they going to do over there?" Although Captain Liu said this, his eyes unconsciously glanced over, and he couldn't help but turn the bow of the boat and sail towards the fork in the river.

This route has already run back and forth, and it is not bad for this road, as the saying goes, the newcomer is strong, maybe he will be said by this kid.

The patrol boat followed the river all the way to the west, and the barren mountains and wild grasses on both sides of the river were uninhabited, and it did not look like someone had been there.

"Captain, look, Yuanshan!" Just when everyone was a little tired, Wang Ke's eyes lit up, and he saw a cargo ship anchored in the distance, which he vaguely saw on the photo provided by the informant.

"Eh, you really got the kid right, everyone get ready, let's go and see it together!" Captain Liu said.

The patrol boat cut through the wind and waves, and after a few moments, it sailed under the "Far Mountain" and saw a rope ladder hanging down from the side of the deck, floating in the air with the wind.

"Captain, I'll go up and have a look!" Wang Ke volunteered.

"Wait. Captain Liu shook his head and sniffed vigorously, smelling a faint hint of blood.

"What's wrong?" Wang Ke was puzzled.

"You wait a minute, I'll go up first, I'll greet you if there's a situation. Captain Liu said in a deep voice.

As he spoke, he took out a Kevlar-textured body armor from the cabin and put it on his body, put on a bulletproof helmet, picked up a submachine gun, turned around to leave, and suddenly turned around and came back, asked for three grenades to hang on his waist, and then slowly climbed up the rope ladder.

Half a minute later, Captain Liu climbed onto the deck of the Yuanshan and found that the deck was empty, and there was no trace of a fight, only a faint bloody smell came out of the cabin.

He cautiously walked forward, came to the front of the cabin, and found that the hatch was hidden with a gap, so he dodged and hid aside, and gently pressed the door with a submachine gun in his hand.

Chirping......

After a deafening sound, the hatch slashed inside, and there was no movement except for the bloody gas.

Captain Liu stabilized his mind, slowly poked his head forward, and glanced into the cabin.

Vomit!

At this glance, Captain Liu almost vomited, the scene in the cabin was really bloody and cruel to the extreme, even if hell came to the world, I was afraid that I would have to bow down.

He is not a rookie egg, he has been in the military camp for more than 20 years, on this national border, facing countless bandits, what kind of scene has he never seen, even so, it almost penetrated his psychological bottom line, and he almost couldn't hold on.

"Captain!"

Hearing that something was wrong on the deck, several soldiers below, including Wang Ke, rushed up desperately.

"Don't come here yet!" Captain Liu first snorted coldly, and then said: "Da Liu, Lao Wang, Xiao Liu, the three of you come here, the others go down, by the way, Zhang Xiaoyu, get a camera and come up!"

The three he called were all veterans, who had been in the army for at least four or five years, and the other young people really didn't dare to let them see that scene.

Wang Ke climbed down the Yuanshan ship, his heart was full of curiosity, what happened on the ship, why Captain Liu insisted on not letting him see it, a seed of curiosity was buried deep in his heart.

After this incident, he pestered Da Liu, Lao Wang and Xiao Liu for a long time, hoping that they would tell him the answer, but unfortunately none of the three people said it.

It wasn't until decades later, at a gathering of retired comrades-in-arms, that Da Liu drank two more glasses before he said what he saw in the cabin.

At the moment he heard this, Wang Ke deeply hated his curiosity.

......

"You have all seen these photos and materials, and you can tell me what you think. ”

The man who spoke was a tall man, about forty years old, with a thin body, bright eyes, about one meter eight tall, a military uniform ironed straight, more shrewd and capable, although the voice was not high, but very powerful.

This person is none other than Xiahou Dijiang, the chief captain of the "Xiangliu" special forces team in Nanzhao Prefecture.

Xiahou Dijiang stood at one end of the table, his hands propped up on the table, in front of him was a thick long wooden table, there were four seats on the left and right, a total of eight, but there were only six people, five men and one woman, among which Fan Li was in the ranks.

"The scene was very bloody, everyone was torn apart, a bit of the witchcraft of Southeast Asia, but it was too messy, a large piece of flesh and blood were devoured, only a little bit of flesh and bone remained, there was no trace of witchcraft, but a bit of wild beasts raging. ”

The speaker's surname is Zhu Jiuyin, and he is a middle-aged man with glasses, with an elegant appearance and a scholarly demeanor.

"The cargo on the ship is all there, obviously not for money, not even a little trace of turning, this is not easy, most people have a little curiosity, although not necessarily, but will also move a little. Wu Tian looked at the photo and said.

He sat opposite Zhu Jiuyin, a top student in medical school, who originally studied psychology, and after graduation, he went to work in a psychiatric hospital, and came to serve in "Xiangliu" by accident.

"There are some details in the photographs, do you see, one of them shows half of a rat's tail, and another has shredded rat skin, and these two marks are very unusual. ”

"Let's make an assumption, when the Toyama set sail, there were a few rats in the warehouse, this thing is quite normal, there are very few ships without rats. Just as something happened in the cabin, the rat happened to meet and was torn apart and became a dessert for the attackers. Therefore, I agree with Brother Zhu's statement that it is some kind of beast that does it, and of course, it may also be a human who is full of beastlines. Wu Tian looked at the photo carefully and said.

"Oh, don't say it, I want to throw up!" Gong Zizhen said opposite him, covering her mouth, she was the only girl among the nine captains of "Xiangliu".

"Don't say it, don't say it, it's just over. Wu Tian smiled and put away the photo.

"Can you see anything else?" asked Xiahou Dijiang.

"The resolution of the photos is too low, the information is not detailed enough, and more details can only be seen on the spot, but it can be determined that it is related to the spiritual world. Wu Tian said.

"Okay, since you can be sure, let's go to the scene and have a look, Fan Li and Gong Zizhen!" Xiahou Dijiang shouted.

"Here!"

"Here!"

Fan Li and Gong Zizhen stood up together.

"You two come with me, and the others continue with the task at hand. Xiahou Dijiang said.

"Captain Xiahou, are you going too?" Gong Zizhen was a little surprised.

"The other party's origin is unknown, I'm afraid it's for us, if it weren't for the lack of people elsewhere, I would even want to bring you all with me. Xiahou Dijiang said.
