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

Unfortunately, Chen Ziyan searched through all the records related to poisonous insects in the traditional literature, but was unable to find any similar cases.

Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly thought of the anecdotes in the inheritance, thinking that maybe he could find useful information in it.

Chen Ziyan, who found a new idea, immediately started reading it again.

This time he did not return empty-handed, but he was a little unsure whether what he found was useful.

It was left by a senior from Xiangling who lived five hundred years ago. He once met a group of strange people while he was out robbing tombs.

They were a group of people who were not afraid of swords and guns, and would not change their expression even if they were attacked by swords and axes.

In this regard, the senior from Xiangling commented that those guys simply did not look like human beings.

Chen Ziyan agrees with this evaluation.

Because the feeling those people gave him just now was that these guys didn't seem like living people.

It is precisely because of this common point that Chen Ziyan feels that there is some connection between the situation he encountered and that encountered by this predecessor.

Of course, he didn't think it was a direct connection, because he was facing Western faces, while his predecessors didn't see many foreigners.

"There is a ghost in Xiling, it looks like a human..."

After seeing the last guess left by the senior, Chen Ziyan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although it is somewhat inconsistent with the records, perhaps this is indeed a direction. After all, his past experience has proved that many legends in this world are not groundless.

Does that also mean that those Western legends also have unknown prototypes?

Thinking of this possibility, Chen Ziyan squatted down, pried open the mouths of the corpses, and intended to look at their teeth.

If these guys really have sharp canine teeth, then they might really be some kind of supernatural creature.

But when he pried open the mouths of the corpses, he was disappointed to find that these cold-faced men did not have fangs. Their teeth were no different from those of ordinary people except that they looked sharper.

Moreover, Chen Ziyan could see that the sharpness of the teeth of these corpses was not naturally so. The tiny wear marks on them proved that they were artificially shaped.

After studying it for a while but finding nothing, Chen Ziyan could only temporarily give up on exploring what was hidden in it.

After asking Wushuang Gui to take good care of the mutated sea monkeys, he got up and returned to the cabin above.

After all, something unexpected happened, and it would be bad for him to stay away from showing up.

After arriving at the resting hall upstairs, Chen Ziyan immediately felt the fierceness of the battle.

Although someone was already cleaning up, there was blood everywhere and it was obviously not enough time to clean it up completely.

However, Chen Ziyan felt that most of the things in here might not be able to be removed by just cleaning, and they needed to be completely replaced.

After leaving the hall, he saw Dong Yanxia directing other people on the deck.

When Dong Yanxia saw Chen Ziyan appear, he immediately stopped what he was doing and said, "Master Chen, you are here."

Although Chen Ziyan had just said that he would be fully responsible for handling the aftermath, it would be bad not to report now that he has shown up.

Dong Yanxia can still grasp this balance.

"Well, what's the situation?" Chen Ziyan asked, looking at the deck that was also scarred.

He had a feeling that the situation might be more serious than he thought.

Because the situation on the boat now is even more serious than the commotion caused by the sea monkeys before.

"We are fine here. Apart from the heavy casualties at the beginning, there were no serious casualties afterwards. However, the prisoners..." Dong Yanxia paused for a moment before giving the answer:

"All those prisoners are gone."

"All gone?" Chen Ziyan asked in surprise.

This was an answer he had not expected.

You have to know that the number of captives on the opposite ship was probably comparable to theirs, or even a little more than theirs, but they were all gone?

He didn't think that everyone on that ship was fearless and brave. People like the cold-faced man should be a minority.

Chen Ziyan's purpose of coming up this time was not just to show himself, he also wanted to question the remaining prisoners.

Since his own guess was fruitless, he might as well ask someone who was familiar with the cold-faced man. Maybe he could get some useful clues.

But unexpectedly, there was not a single one left, and they all died in the turmoil just now.

"We checked and found that those with weak wills were probably planted with bombs without knowing it. They were the first to die. The rest were extremely tenacious and committed suicide decisively after being beaten to the point where they could not move. That's why there are no survivors at all."

When Dong Yanxia talked about this, his expression became heavy.

"Suicide?" After hearing his words, Chen Ziyan understood why he did that, because this undoubtedly showed that the origins of these people were not simple.

Committing suicide when the mission fails is the style of a suicide soldier.

In this day and age, it is not easy to have an organization that can train a large number of death warriors.

"Tell the brothers to forget about this matter." After a few seconds of silence, Chen Ziyan said slowly.

He intended to remind his guys in this way.

Those who can see the seriousness of the problem would have seen it long ago, and those who didn't see it at the time, I believe, will understand what they should do after his reminder.

After all, none of these temporary guys are fools. At most, they just didn’t react for a moment.

Compared with Chen Ziyan, they actually need to worry more about retaliation because they are easier to find and deal with.

"Mr. Chen, what about the captain?" Dong Yanxia asked.

He understood what Chen Ziyan meant, but if the captain told others about it, it would be useless for the crew to remain silent.

"Our captain is a smart man. Once he knows what happened, he will naturally know what to do." Chen Ziyan was not worried about this.

Because the captain is undoubtedly weaker than him and his companions, he will take this matter more seriously than them.

"Keep busy."

After saying that, Chen Ziyan planned to leave.

After all, he didn't want to be burdened by these chores, and since his face had already been revealed, there was no need to stay any longer.

To be honest, it's already the return journey, and if it wasn't for the face-saving project, he wouldn't even want to show his face.

But just after taking two steps, he suddenly thought of something and called Dong Yanxia: "By the way, where are the things those people brought up? Let someone take me over to have a look."

He also suddenly remembered that although everyone on the ship was dead, the things they brought were still there, and maybe they could find something here.

So I decided to check it out to see if there is anything I want. (End of this chapter)
