mysterious forerunner

Chapter 158 Asking for the Waystone

Although the dragon was solved this time, Zhang Qingxiang and Guo Lao listened to their suggestions.

Mr. Guo himself also feels that the level of these consultants recently recruited can no longer keep up with the mysterious development.

Most of them are second-level and third-level ones.

The old professor is indeed someone who must be recruited, but it doesn't need to be so urgent.

Zhang Qingxiang asked Mr. Guo again: "Does our clean-up team need to be dispatched to deal with the aftermath of the giant dragon?"

"No, the military has a whole set of personnel. They have calculated in advance where the dragon may be hit, and prepared a variety of plans. Even the dragon's corpse and explosion debris did not cause much damage.

They had already finished the cleanup afterwards. "

Zhang Qingxiang frowned secretly: There should be two ray worms inside the giant dragon. Has the military noticed it? Contained or run away?
If he ran away, it would be another trouble.

……

Two green "Warrior" military vehicles escorted them from front to back. In the middle of the convoy was a huge freezer truck with all the dragon's corpses frozen inside.

Even the soil and turf with blood on the ground were shoveled up and taken away.

The convoy quickly left the original city and entered a secret military base in the mountains outside the city an hour later.

The freezer truck drove into the cave bunker, and a man jumped out of the third military off-road vehicle. Four military vehicles contained soldiers with live ammunition, half of them protecting the dragon corpse, and half of them protecting the man.

This man was carrying a military green safety box in his hand, which was locked directly on his hand with an iron chain.

A doctor in a white coat from the base came out quickly: "Have you got the things?"

"got it."

The two entered the laboratory with the highest security level together and opened the safety box. Two dark yellow nematodes were sealed in two special bottles.

The insect was motionless, only occasionally emitting a faint yellow light.

The doctor checked it and nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, handover completed."

The escort saluted and then retreated. The doctor carried the box to the test bench, where there were dozens of advanced and precious instruments.

Against the wall, dozens of transparent cages were built with bulletproof glass, containing various beasts.

The doctor typed a few times in front of the computer and began to record the voice: "Military dog ​​project, obtain the fourth primordial body, time..."

……

At 5:30 in the afternoon, after dinner, Zhang Qingxiang came to the hospital before dark.

This time he came alone, and the rest of the agents stayed with the team.

Zhang Qingxiang brought photos of the two deceased people last night. After Jiang Yu saw them, he felt very depressed: "Among the four, only Shang Yulan is still alive."

Zhang Qingxiang took out a photo of the dragon before it was a lizard: "Have you seen this thing?"

Jiang Yu shook his head blankly: "I have no impression."

Zhang Qingxiang still has some doubts in his heart: the four bodyguards took advantage of Jiang Yu's self-shaping time to come into contact with the stone. Three of them became practitioners and one failed.

How did these beasts come into contact with the stone?

This lizard can be sure that it has never left the original city in several months.

As for Jiang Yu's return to the original city, the stone was locked tightly in the safe for at least a week.

Jiang Yu sighed and traced the photos with his fingers: "They want to become practitioners, why don't they tell me?

They have been cooperating with me for more than ten years, so how could I not agree to their proposal?

In times like this, if they become practitioners, they can better protect me, which is something I can only hope for. "

She then looked at the photo of the only survivor, Shang Yulan, a middle-aged woman in her forties with an ordinary appearance: "Five years ago, we were exploring the mountains in the southwest and got into a cave. As a result, the terrain inside was too complicated and we got separated. Only Shang Yulan and I were left. We were exhausted, so she gave me the last half of a compressed biscuit.

We leaned together, tried our best to save our energy, and waited for others to rescue us.

She told me about her son who was about to enter elementary school, and I told her about my sweet daughter... At that time, we didn't know whether we would see our families again. "

Jiang Yu is an artist with sensitive and rich emotions: "I don't understand, can't she still be honest with me after such an experience?"

Zhang Qingxiang and Ye Jiucheng looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort her.

Jiang Yu waved his hand: "I'm a little tired, let me rest for a while."

When everyone came out, Ye Jiucheng tucked her in and gently closed the door.

Ye Jiucheng and Zhang Qingxiang can understand the betrayal of the bodyguards.

In a mysterious era, an opportunity to become a professional lies before you. These four people are all bodyguards. Becoming professionals means that they will soon become "mysterious bodyguards", and their commission fees will be more than ten times higher in the future!
It's just that none of them dare to take the risk and confess their ambitions to Jiang Yu.

In case of rejection...

Ye Yousheng hadn't seen her brother for a day, and now she was sticking close to him, not wanting to leave him for a moment.

Ye Jiucheng originally wanted to consult Zhang Qingxiang about becoming a professional. He collected four professional source materials, and he didn't know how to choose one of the four.

But looking at his daughter's look, he was a little jealous for no reason and didn't want to ask.

Zhang Qingxiang called his father and asked: "That bodyguard is still an ordinary person. What weapon caused the fatal injury?"

Zhang Ruiqian was confused: "You have read the report. The sharp blade pierced the heart directly. Do you have any new ideas?"

"Is there a possibility that he was also killed by a mysterious spirit?"

Zhang Ruiqian muttered "Hmm" and said, "Why do you have such an idea?" "A practitioner corresponds to a secret spirit. Although he failed to take office, the secret spirit may have succeeded."

"So far, it seems that it is a duel between cultivators and secret spirits. There has not yet been a situation where cultivators versus cultivators or secret spirits versus secret spirits."

"This may be the rule of this stone."

Zhang Ruiqian said immediately: "I will ask the forensic doctor to check the biological residues on the body immediately."

Ten minutes later, Zhang Ruiqian replied to his son: There were indeed rare non-human genetic samples remaining on the wounds of the corpse.

Sure enough, it was the mysterious spirit that took action.

"Judging from the biological organization, it should be a bird."

No wonder there were no signs of forced entry at the crime scene before, and birds flew in through the window.

Initially, everyone thought that an acquaintance committed the crime, and that the murderer was one of the other three bodyguards.

Zhang Ruiqian discussed with his son: "What is the purpose of this model? What are the benefits to that stone? It can't be just for fun, right?
Moreover, both sides are hunting each other. What is the next step for the winner?
Judging from Jiang Yu's experience, it is possible that after killing the first secret spirit, he will encounter the challenge of the second one. So what about the secret spirit, after killing the first practitioner, will he go to find the second one?
It's a pity that we have killed all the secret spirits, so there is no way to verify it. "

The two discussed for a while, and it wasn't until Zhang Ruiqian's side became busy on duty that they hung up the phone.

Zhang Qingxiang had a guess but did not tell his father.

Because there is no evidence to support it yet.

In the last life, a type of secret objects appeared sporadically. They had different abilities and high levels, and could even make their holders become star practitioners.

But such secrets ultimately caused terrible losses.

They are called “way-finding stones.”

It is a "casting stone to ask for directions" where the mystery is thrown into the real world from all things in the secret world.

Some of their seemingly unconscious arrangements are actually preparations for large and super large scenes.

This stone is very similar to this type of secret object.

Zhang Qingxiang accompanied the little girl and guarded the hospital to prevent Shang Yulan from sneaking into the hospital and attacking Jiang Yu.

But the night passed without incident.

The three secret case teams also successfully completed their duties.

Among the three groups, only Peng Shuangjie's team encountered some troubles and seriously injured two team members, but in the end the mysterious scene was solved.

The second group had a miserable night, losing two agents.

Again, in the mysterious era, death is the norm, and immortality is a fluke.

Zhang Qingxiang said goodbye to the little girl: "I'll go back to the team first. I spent the whole day chasing two secret spirits yesterday, and today's target is Shang Yulan."

The little girl nodded: "Please pay attention to your safety. Don't rush forward by yourself if anything happens."

……

Zhang Qingxiang returned to the group, first checked last night's action report, and then glanced at his tired subordinates: "Everyone rest for two hours and deal with the price of the secret object."

Then Zhang Qingxiang posted Shang Yulan’s photo on the whiteboard in his office: “Today’s task is to hunt down Shang Yulan.”

The subordinates dispersed, but Feng Lintong stayed. He came up to him a little uneasily: "Ya Nei, I want to tell you something."

"Not a good thing, right?"

"I don't know either." Feng Lintong confessed honestly: "Look at this."

Feng Lintong handed over his mobile phone. It was the interface of [Mysterious Forerunner]. Feng Lintong posted a bragging post. In the post, he talked about the deeds of a former team leader named Zhang of the city’s secret case team who turned a stray dog ​​into a mysterious spirit. .

There was a lot of praise below, mixed with a few doubts.

But that's not what Feng Lintong wanted to show Yanei. She clicked on her private message, and there were seven or eight messages in it, all asking if she could help turn their pet into a secret spirit!

Judging from the identity authentication of these people, they are all agents from the secret case teams in various places, and several of them are captains and team leaders.

They are willing to pay a certain amount.

The pets they want to transform, like Xiao Hui before, have shown signs of evolving into mysterious spirits.

They want to speed up the process.

Feng Lintong asked cautiously: "Yamen, is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

I just told a gossip on the forum, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction.

At first, this post was very popular, and the number of clicks and replies increased rapidly. Feng Lintong's vanity was quite satisfied. It wasn't until people kept asking for help in private messages that she felt bad and a little out of control.

"Ding dong!"

The alert sounded again, and a new private message was received. The sender was from Heiyun Province. The authentication information was from a group leader, asking if he could help turn pets into secret spirits.

Zhang Qingxiang looked at these private messages and his heart moved slightly.

The day before yesterday, he was in the trading area of ​​[Mysterious Forerunner] and took a fancy to a secret medicine that could improve his cultivation.

But in this era, this type of secret medicine is extremely rare, and the price charged by the other party is extremely high, and Zhang Qingxiang cannot afford it.

"Let's wait until we finish working on Jiang Yu's case."
