People are in the comprehensive tomb, unloading the mountain and stealing the chief

Chapter 483
The chaos did not last until dawn, and the camp returned to calm after two hours.

It was just blood and bullet casings scattered everywhere, gunpowder smoke in the air, and chaotic cursing and moaning, all telling how chaotic the previous attack was.

At this moment, Wu Laogou and Li Wu were no longer in the previous tent, but came to another larger tent. This was the place where supplies were stored before, but now it has become one of the gathering places for the remaining people.

As the builders and managers of the camp, as well as the oldest seniors present, Li Wu and Wu Laogou undoubtedly became the backbone of the camp.

At least in terms of defending against that mysterious creature, as long as there is no intentional death, everyone present is willing to follow their command.

At this time, everyone in the camp focused their eyes on the table in the middle, more precisely, on the corpse of the creature on the table.

This is the culprit of everything.

Rao is that everyone in the camp has unique skills, and they paid a lot of money to get this corpse.

"Fifth Lord, does this look like a fox?" Li Wu couldn't help asking after frowning for a while.

This thing in front of me looks like a fox, but its body is more slender, but considering the speed of the other party's elusiveness and extraordinary lethality, it doesn't look like a fox at all, so Li Wu wants to ask Mr. Wu Does the dog know where this thing came from.

"No, although I don't know the origin of this thing, but it's definitely not a fox." Wu Laogou shook his head decisively.

When he traveled all over the country looking for spirit dogs, he also encountered foxes who stepped into the realm of spirits and monsters, but without exception, those spirit foxes were all developing in the direction of spiritual strengthening, and their size would also grow to varying degrees, like the ones in front of them. This opposite situation has never been seen before.

Although there is the possibility of a special case, this one was not the only mysterious creature that appeared last night, so the possibility of a mutation is extremely low.

"It's not a fox, what could it be?" Li Wu murmured in a low voice.

Their job is to deal with supernatural things. Naturally, they have encountered similar creatures. In the past, the conventional way to deal with them was to find out the prototype of the creature first, and start from the weakness of the opponent's biology.

This is why Li Wu wanted to know what the mysterious creature in front of him was.

"Look up the relevant information. Everything in this world has its footsteps. This won't be the first time this thing has appeared. It should be recorded in ancient books." Wu Laogou thought for a while and said.

He was very calm. Although this kind of situation was rare, it was not uncommon for him to encounter it before.

Let's not talk about the far ones, but that time in the operation of the fourth girl, this kind of thing was rarely seen during the process.

The only thing Wu Laogou can be sure of now is that the creature that attacked the camp is not some evil thing, otherwise the sleeve dog in his arms would never be unresponsive.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to investigate." Li Wuzhong nodded.

Wu Laogou looked at the back of Li Wu's account of the task, and doubts arose in his heart.

It's not that he hasn't dealt with people from the Bureau of Folklore Affairs before, but if he wants to say it's special, it has to be this one in front of him, so special that he doesn't look like someone from that agency at all.

As far as he knew, being able to serve as the manager of a province, these people relied not only on the mysterious artifacts in their hands, but also on their own abilities, but Li Wu didn't seem like someone with special abilities.

However, he didn't show any doubts in his heart, but quietly observed in secret, and at the same time secretly decided in his heart that he would go to Chen Ziyan's side tomorrow.

Wu Laogou had a premonition that Chen Ziyan knew the origin of this thing. He didn't have any evidence for it, but he just thought that the other party would give him an answer.

The chaos lasted for less than three hours, but the follow-up aftermath work did not end until dawn.

After everything was over, it was already past eight o'clock the next day.

Wu Laogou walked out of the tent, looked at the rising sun in the sky, and let out a sigh of relief.

The number of people in the camp now decreased by two-thirds compared to yesterday, and the people who disappeared were not sacrificed to the attack of the mysterious creature, but left early in the morning and overnight.

No one is a fool. Everyone saw what happened last night. That thing might have come out of nowhere.

Although everyone was summoned here, the premise is that the danger is within the acceptable range. Now the situation has obviously exceeded this range, and they will definitely not stay in this ghost place any longer.

If it weren't for the camp staff who couldn't leave, it is estimated that there would not be even a third of them left here.

Li Wu came to Wu Laogou with a tired face, and sighed: "Fifth Master, do you think we should ask for help from above, today is the first day."

Old Dog Wu understood what he meant. Last night was actually not considered time for action. Strictly speaking, today was the first day of action, but the number of people summoned was already reduced by two-thirds.

Li Wu was a little worried now, his rationality told him that he had to call for help in this situation, otherwise it would be a problem for the remaining people to survive tonight, let alone complete the task.

But the problem lies in the first day, the operation has not officially started, and the whole team is already on the verge of being broken, which makes the leaders above think of him.

Wu Laogou didn't understand what he meant, but he didn't mean to help at all, but reminded him with deep meaning:

"If I were you, it's time to think about why anyone would stay."

Li Wu was shocked immediately, but he didn't say anything.

He understood what Old Dog Wu meant, and his words made sense. Why would anyone stay?
Everyone has no relatives and no reason, and they didn't know each other before. Although the situation is still unclear now, the degree of danger is already obvious. It will only become more dangerous and will not become safer. Those who have no problem in their minds will consider leaving.

So the question is clear, why do these people stay now?
The answer is unknown, but one thing is certain, that is, it must be profitable.

Li Wu immediately thought of several possibilities. First of all, someone knew the mysterious creature last night and wanted to get some benefits from him.

The second is that someone knows the inside story here and wants to do something. Their target may be the special creatures here, or those snakes.

Wu Laogou didn't care when he saw that he didn't say a word. Although this person was a little different from those he had seen before, he was obviously not a stupid person. He had already said it so bluntly, and the other party would definitely make some moves.

After being silent for a while, feeling that the heat was almost ready, Old Dog Wu said, "I'm going to find Xiaoyou Chen to inquire about the situation. I don't know if Director Li wants to come together?"

"I..." Li Wu naturally wanted to go too. He had this plan last night, but it was interrupted by an accident, but he knew very well that anyone can leave this camp now, except him, the general manager.

Regardless of his reasons, as long as he leaves the camp, the morale of the army that is already on the verge of being broken will never be picked up again.

And doing so will not only affect the present, but will always follow him in the future.

"Fifth Master, if you don't wait any longer, that thing might come out during the day, so it might not be safe for you to go there alone." After thinking about it, Li Wu persuaded.

He did this not for the safety of Old Dog Wu, but because the power of the camp has been greatly weakened now, and the dogs under Old Dog Wu have become very important. Dogs around, this is a reputation earned.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I still have some strength to protect myself." Old Dog Wu said with a smile.

Although the tone is very gentle, the meaning in the voice is very clear, that is, I have decided to go.

When Li Wu saw this, he knew that he had no way to persuade the other party, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Soon, Old Dog Wu left the camp with his pack of dogs and headed towards where Chen Ziyan was.

Standing at the gate of the camp, Li Wu looked at the figure of Wu Laogou going away, his face gradually became a little gloomy, until the figure of the other party disappeared, and then turned back to the camp.

At this time, in the forest in front of him, in the grass covered by dense vegetation, Old Dog Wu slowly looked away.

"This person really has a problem." He whispered to himself.

Although he is old, his eyesight has always been very good, so he can clearly see the other person's expression.

However, Old Dog Wu didn't care too much. He touched the head of the sleeve dog in his arms, turned around and walked towards the depths of the mountain forest.

"Chen Xiaoyou, please forgive me for coming here uninvited."

When he came outside the trap set by Chen Ziyan, he didn't rush in, but called inside.

"Fifth Lord, you're being polite." After a while, Chen Ziyan slowly appeared and said with a smile.

"Fifth Master, do you want to explore the vicinity?" Chen Ziyan glanced at the group of dogs beside Old Dog Wu, and asked deliberately.

He naturally knew that there was an accident in the camp last night, and he could guess that the other party came to find him for some purpose.

"Didn't Chen Xiaoyou hear anything last night?" Wu Laogou asked naturally because he couldn't see what Chen Ziyan meant after living for so many years.

He just wants to know more inside information now, and doesn't care much about this kind of thing.

"Of course I heard the movement." Chen Ziyan just wanted to take the initiative. Now that the other party had already made it clear, there was no need to cover it up. He asked curiously, "There was a lot of gunshots, did something happen?"

"We were attacked." Wu Laogou said truthfully.

"Is it a snake?" Chen Ziyan continued to ask.

He still thought that it was a black-haired snake that attacked the camp.

It's normal to think about it. The black-haired snake is the most common here. If you want to make such an armed camp turbulent for two or three hours, only the black-haired snake is the most likely.

"No." Old Dog Wu shook his head: "It's a creature that I've never seen before."

Hearing what he said, Chen Ziyan had a guess in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to say more.

At this time they had already returned to the camp, Chen Ziyan first asked Wu Laogou to sit down, and then said with a smile:

"Fifth Master, please drink tea."

Old Dog Wu picked up his teacup and sipped it lightly, but he couldn't tell whether he had drunk it or not, and then he took the initiative to say: "Xiaoyou Chen, Ming people don't talk dark words, the purpose of my coming this time is to ask you, Do you know the details of that thing?"

Chen Ziyan nodded slightly, and asked, "Fifth Lord, I wonder if you caught that thing?"

Wu Laogou took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and there was a sketch on it, which was the corpse they had harvested.

"This is it."

Chen Ziyan took the sketch and looked at it, and immediately knew that he had guessed correctly. It really was this thing that attacked the camp.

Nephew!

It's not that Chen Ziyan didn't think that this thing was making trouble last night, but after thinking about it, he was a little uncertain.

Because he didn't know when his nephew appeared here. After all, this thing didn't look like a black-haired snake, and he didn't know how long it had taken root in this land.

Wu Laogou had been paying attention to Chen Ziyan, and when he saw such an expression on his face, he immediately knew that what he expected was correct, and that the other party knew the details of that thing last night.

"Chen Xiaoyou, it seems that you know this thing?"

"Well, I heard from my elders before that this is a very rare beast. I think you should have heard of it, Fifth Master." Chen Ziyan held back a little.

Wu Laogou asked very cooperatively: "Huh? I have heard of it? I hope my little friend can clarify."

Chen Ziyan faintly spit out two words: "Nephew!"

"Nephew?" Wu Laogou first showed doubts, then looked at Chen Ziyan and asked, "But the nephew recorded in Shan Hai Jing?"

"That's right." Chen Ziyan nodded.

Old Dog Wu was even more suspicious, and said in puzzlement, "I have read the Classic of Mountains and Seas many times, but the nephew on it is a beast with nine tails and nine heads?"

Because this nephew has many characteristics consistent with the nine-tailed fox, Wu Laogou has a deep memory of him, and immediately remembered the relevant records.

Chen Ziyan explained to him: "Fifth Lord doesn't know, this nephew has always been in groups, usually nine in a group, there is one female and nine males in the group, and this female is bigger. The males are smaller in size, and eight males will lie on the back of the female when they move, and the body is extremely slender, so the world thinks that the nephew has nine heads and nine tails, but it is not the case.”

Wu Laogou asked thoughtfully: "That is to say, this nephew is a kind of complex creature, unrelated to each other, but interdependent on each other?"

As an expert in raising dogs, he has done a lot of research on canine related knowledge, so this nephew belongs to the legendary creature, but it has never changed from its origin, and its appearance still belongs to the canine family.

"You can think so." Chen Ziyan thought for a while, nodded and said.

Although Wu Laogou's statement is not very appropriate, it is still true.

Wu Laogou thought for a while after hearing the words, and continued: "From this point of view, although this nephew looks like a fox, it is very likely to be a creature that is closer to a wolf."

Chen Ziyan blinked, and looked at Old Dog Wu in surprise.

This was something he didn't expect, but it was very possible. After all, he hadn't entered the laboratory for detailed research, so no one dared to say that this nephew was a mutant of a fox.

Maybe they are really dogs?
