Traffic control is temporarily implemented on Beixinqiao Road. Except for special vehicles, no one can pass through, which makes their movements more convenient.
Wang Siqi took out an inkstone from his backpack and quickly drew a Tai Chi Bagua diagram at the center of the shortest straight-line route between Suolongjing and Qianyuan Palace.
He stared at the Tai Chi Bagua diagram on the ground for a long time before he put away the inkstone and took out the ancestral compass.
The shadow of the Wang family's ancient building flickered, and red light shone from the compass, shining on the Bagua diagram.
The originally static Bagua diagram suddenly came alive, the Yin-Yang fish swam, stirring up the local feng shui.
Wang Siqi muttered something, and as the speed of his chanting increased, the Yin-Yang fish gradually rose from the ground and floated in front of him.
He suddenly pointed his right hand forward, and the Yin-Yang fish, which only he could see, swam in the direction he pointed.
Holding the compass in his left hand and guiding the direction with his right hand, Wang Siqi followed the Yin-Yang fish.
As he moved, the surrounding environment gradually changed, and the negative energy spread little by little, enveloping him.
To outsiders, it seemed that Wang Siqi disappeared while walking.
Cao Zhengyang had actually been following not far away, this was Wang Siqi's request. He repeatedly told Cao Zhengyang that if he found that he had disappeared, he should rush up as soon as possible and leave a mark at the place where he disappeared.
Cao Zhengyang originally disagreed. How could he watch Wang Siqi disappear? Besides, he had watched the surveillance video countless times. In the video, whether it was Chen Guangquan or other leaders, they did not disappear in the same place. How could Wang Siqi guarantee that he would disappear?
Just as he refused, Wang Siqi just glanced at him calmly and said something he couldn't refuse: "If you don't want to find Chen and the others, you can reject my proposal!"
With just this one sentence, Cao Zhengyang compromised.
They couldn't get too close to Wang Siqi, and Wang Siqi always had his back to them when doing anything, so the people from the General Security Bureau didn't see what Wang Siqi did specifically.
The moment Wang Siqi's figure disappeared, Cao Zhengyang immediately led his men to rush forward and scattered bags of quicklime on the ground.
This was not enough. Following Wang Siqi's instructions, Cao Zhengyang had people pour a lot of water on the quicklime.
The heat spread instantly, and the pungent smell could be smelled even with a gas mask.
White steam floated away, and soon the whole street was filled with heat. There was a pungent smell in the air, and even rats running out of the sewers could be fainted by the smell.
"Director Cao, can we really find Director Chen and his men this way?"
The people from the General Security Headquarters worked according to Cao Zhengyang's instructions. In the distance, quicklime was still being transported. Someone asked Cao Zhengyang.
They closed the roads and spread quicklime to create hot air, which is full of poisonous gases and can be fatal if inhaled in excess.
“I can find it!”
Before Wang Siqi took action, he told Cao Zhengyang that he would bring the missing person back before today. Cao Zhengyang had no idea what to do and could only pin his hopes on Wang Siqi.
He believed that the people from the Jiumen Fengshui Bureau would not fail!
As the person who temporarily replaced Chen Guangquan to give orders in the General Security Department, Cao Zhengyang was under tremendous pressure. The superiors had issued a death order, and if they couldn't find anyone, they would be in big trouble!
"We don't have any other clues to find the person now. I believe Comrade Wang will not let us down! He dares to issue a military order, so he is sure to find the person!"
Cao Zhengyang's attitude was serious, his tone was earnest, and he was extremely firm.

As for Wang Ye, after separating from Wang Siqi, he went directly to the Locking Dragon Well.
Wang Siqi had explored it and knew it was not completely dark yet, so it would be relatively safe for Wang Ye to enter the Dragon Locking Well alone without attracting attention.
More importantly, there is no negative energy in the Locking Dragon Well.
Where there is a real dragon, it is difficult for yin energy to exist.
From a distance, Wang Ye heard the roar of a dragon gradually rising from the Dragon Locking Well. After checking the surroundings to make sure there was no one around, the array plate under his feet lit up, and he appeared at the mouth of the well the next second.
He turned over and jumped into the Dragon Locking Well, grabbed the iron chain, and descended quickly in the narrow well.
Looking from the wellhead, you can never see the bottom, and you don’t even know whether there is water in the well. You can only see the dark wellhead, which is terrifying.
The deeper they descended, the thinner the air became. Wang Ye estimated that they had descended at least thirty meters.
No wonder there is a legend that the Locking Dragon Well is connected to the Sea Eye, the seabed is unfathomable, and the depth of the Locking Dragon Well is also astonishing.
Wang Ye secretly felt lucky that it was he who came down. If it was someone else, the lack of oxygen alone would have been difficult to cope with.
As he descended, he kicked the iron chain beside him twice. The sound of the chain shaking and hitting could be heard, but there was no other sound.
The dragon roar that could still be heard outside the Dragon Locking Well had not been heard since he entered the Dragon Locking Well.
If he hadn't been the only one who had heard the dragon's roar, he would have suspected that he was hallucinating!
He didn't know how many meters he had descended. According to Wang Ye's estimation, it was at least a hundred meters deep, but he still couldn't see the bottom. At this time, he had held his breath and supported himself with his inner breath.
The oxygen concentration in the air is extremely low. If you come here without any safety measures, you will die first, let alone investigate clues.
"Crash, lala, lala -"
Suddenly, I heard a slight sound of flowing water, not loud, and seemed to be some distance away.
Wang Ye originally thought that there was no water in the Locking Dragon Well, but he didn't expect there really was some.
After descending another ten meters, he saw the water surface. Perhaps because it was too far from the ground, the well water was pitch black at first glance, and he couldn't see what was under the water.
No matter what is under the water, the king has to go down.
The other end of the chain was still sinking in the well water, and there was no end in sight. I wonder how many craftsmen worked together to forge such a long chain.
After staring at the well water for a long time, Wang Ye dived into the water.
The water was freezing cold and the underwater pressure was enormous. Even though Wang had prepared himself mentally, he still felt uncomfortable.
A light blue light gradually emerged around his body, and the underwater formation was somewhat distorted. Wang also swam quickly underwater, and with the help of the power of Fenghou Qimen, he was able to barely withstand the underwater pressure.
As he continued to dive, the color of the light around him gradually darkened.
The iron chain had long been rusted in the well water, and countless mosses were attached to it. Wang could no longer hold on to the chain and could only continue diving in the direction in which the chain was hanging.
Time seemed to stand still underwater. Suddenly, his feet felt empty, the pressure on his body suddenly dropped, and Wang fell heavily into a hole.
Looking up, the dark blue well water was shimmering, and just above my head, an invisible barrier separated the well water from the space below.
Wang Ye stood up and looked around.
This is an obviously man-made cavity, about fifty to sixty square meters, with a door on the east side leading to somewhere else.
Nine iron chains hanging from the mouth of the Dragon Locking Well also passed through the barrier and extended into the door.
The dragon roar that had not been heard since entering the Dragon Locking Well now came from that direction again.
Wang Ye held up his sword and cautiously walked towards that location. This door was only big enough for two people to pass through. The closer he got, the stronger the salty smell of the wet sea water became. Could it be that this really led to the sea?
With this thought in mind, Wang Ye became more cautious. He had a feeling that the truth of the legend that had been passed down for thousands of years behind this wall was about to be revealed.
With his mind made up, Wang Ye knew that he would be killed whether he stretched his head or concealed it, and there was no escape, so he stepped through the door.
After seeing the scene clearly, Wang Ye's body froze, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, he wanted to shout but no sound came out.
This is a space of several thousand square meters, with a huge pool in the center and a dragon lying beside the pool.
Yes, it was the legendary Jiaolong, and it was the first time Wang Ye had seen it. There were white patterns on the Jiaolong's neck, and even though it was lying on its stomach, it could be seen that it had four legs, while real dragons had no legs.
Nine iron chains passed through the dragon's body, trapping it there. Even in the water, it could not leave.
The iron chain that passed through the dragon's body was engraved with many ancient symbols. Although Wang Ye could not see the specific function, he could guess roughly.
The dragon roar came from the mouth of this dragon. With every roar, the iron chain passing through its body shook more violently.
Although Wang Ye's footsteps were light when he came in, they could not escape the ears of the dragon.
The dragon opened its eyes.
The dark blue eyes were like two blue night pearls, so deep and profound.
"After so many years, someone finally came!"
The dragon began to speak, but perhaps because it had not spoken for too long, its voice was hoarse, like a stone scratching against a wall.
Wang Ye stared at the dragon's eyes for a long time, and after making sure that he saw no malice in it, he slowly spoke: "I didn't mean to break in. I just came down to investigate because there have been dragon roars in the Dragon Locking Well recently."
The dragon looks like it is truly locked here and unable to leave. The legend of the Locking Dragon Well is true because of the existence of this dragon.
"What's going on out there now?"
Jiaolong didn't care much about Wang Ye's answer and asked another question.
"It's the 21st century." Wang didn't understand why Jiaolong cared about the world, so he just answered like this.
"Ming, is it gone?"
The dragon's mood didn't change much. After staring at Wang Ye for a while, he continued to ask.
"The former Ming dynasty did not last for thousands of years. It was replaced by the later dynasty a few hundred years later. Of course, they did not last long either. The wheel of history has rolled on and we have come to this day. You have not shouted for so many years, why are you suddenly speaking out now?"
When the dragon asked about the past, Wang Ye knew that it was really locked here by Liu Gong. It didn't matter whether it was deceived or for other reasons. The result was that it was trapped here.
With Wang Ye's current strength, the nine chains cannot be untied, but the dragon should not appear again.
There was a strange flash in his eyes. The dragon dragged the chain, and its whole body sank into the water, leaving only its head exposed.
Wang did not move forward. Seeing that the dragon had no intention of hurting anyone, he thought for a moment and could not help asking, "A dark road appeared outside, and many people entered it. Do you know what happened?"
There is no real dragon under the Locking Dragon Well, only a dragon, and there is no trace of yin energy.
"You know there's something in Miyun Reservoir, right? I feel like someone is tampering outside and trying to release something from Miyun Reservoir. The Yin Road was created by me drawing Yin Qi from Qianyuan Palace. The first group of missing people have been found, and they are not in danger of life, right?"
The dragon tilted its head and sneered, "I didn't expect that the current generation of magic practitioners is getting worse and worse. An evil master is about to be born in Qianyuan Palace, but no one has noticed it. What's the point of repairing the Feng Shui formation above the Miyun Reservoir? The key is underground!"
The dragon admitted it openly, his tone full of sarcasm.
"It is now the Dharma Ending Age. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, and life is not easy for practitioners. It is no longer the time when we could call the wind and rain as we did in the past!"
Wang accepted the dragon's contempt, but he was confused. According to the dragon, it created this dark road as a reminder, hoping that a practitioner would find the problem and solve it.
"What is under the Miyun Reservoir? And why are you locked here?"
The dragon's attitude is really strange. Could it be that the dragon, who was tricked and locked here, really has no hatred?
"I don't know what's under the Miyun Reservoir. As for why I'm locked here, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you younger generations. A Jiaolong is only one step away from becoming a real dragon. As long as it survives the heavenly tribulation, it can ascend to become a real dragon and protect the area. But for thousands of years, almost no Jiaolong has been able to survive the Jiaolong heavenly tribulation.
If you can’t survive the calamity, you’ll end up dead.
I once thought that I had the ability to successfully overcome the tribulation and transform into a dragon, but then something happened and I suddenly didn't dare to overcome the tribulation anymore.
The dragon cannot control its own heavenly tribulation. Once one’s cultivation reaches a certain level, the heavenly tribulation will come naturally.
In order to survive, I gave up the tribulation. I reached an agreement with Liu Gong and was locked here with nine dragon chains, consuming my own dragon energy day after day, allowing the dragon energy to permeate the entire Qianming Palace and suppress the Miyun Reservoir at the same time.
Because of the Dragon Locking Well and the former Ming Palace above, the emperor's true dragon energy pressed on the Dragon Locking Well, and my dragon energy was almost completely suppressed. In this way, the heavenly tribulation naturally could not sense my existence. As long as I don't pass the tribulation, I won't die. Even if I am locked here for a long time, I am willing.
The dragon admitted that he was afraid of death and that if going through the tribulation meant certain death, he would rather not go through it forever.
Before Jiaolong explained, countless thoughts flashed through Wang Ye's mind. He never imagined that the reason why Jiaolong was willing to be trapped here was so absurd.
What else can he say to a dragon that is afraid of death and loves life?
"If the things in the Miyun Reservoir escape, I won't be able to stay here safely. So I opened a Yin Road. If you want to save people, I can just take back the Yin Qi. However, the things in the Miyun Reservoir must not come out. You must find a way to deal with the evil master in Qianyuan Palace.
The unusual movements I can detect come from the evil master of Qianyuan Palace. As for the others who did it on purpose, can you handle them?"
The dragon was very selfish. Although it hated being trapped here and losing its freedom, it didn't dare to face the calamity directly. It had been hiding for too long, becoming more and more timid and less willing to fight.
"Then you should first take back the Yin Road and release the trapped people."
Wang Ye thought clearly that he should find the person first and then deal with other things.
“Clang, clang—”
Jiaolong and Wang did not continue their conversation. They both heard a noise coming from outside. Someone was coming down through the barrier.
The dragon glanced at Wang Ye and sank completely into the water. Only the iron chain beside it indicated that there was something in the water.
Wang was not in a hurry to act. There were only two spaces below. No matter who came in, they would come here. He just had to wait.
Within two minutes, two sturdy men in black suits walked in from outside.
"Fuck, is there really a dragon in this place?"
One of the sturdy men was still muttering when he saw Wang Ye facing them.
"Fuck, who is it?"
The sturdy man took two steps back, obviously not expecting that there was a living person under the Dragon Locking Well.
"Anyone who can appear below the Dragon Locking Well is an enemy and must be killed without mercy!"
The other sturdy man seemed calmer. He looked at Wang Ye and said coldly.
So, as soon as they meet, they want to kill each other? (End of this chapter)
