Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 229: The Hypothesis of "Red Cave Song"
Research Department of the Control Bureau, History Section.

"Now that the contents of the stone tablet have been copied down, everyone should go and look up the information, use your imagination, and expand your thinking to see if you can come up with any clues!
We must strive to enter the Qicha Gate of Yuezhuo Village as soon as possible and say loudly what our slogan is! "Zhang Qian, the head of the History Department, shouted.

The researchers at each long table followed suit and shouted the slogan: "Whoever controls the past controls the future! Whoever controls the present controls the past!"

"Very good, let's get to work." Zhang Qian nodded with satisfaction, turned around and muttered to himself, "Orwell is really a genius. He could come up with such a brilliant summary. It's a pity that he died too early, otherwise he might have been able to sort out the tangled threads of the tree of history."

Zhang Qian walked towards his position as section chief. When he passed by a table, he suddenly stopped and frowned.

"Xiao Mu, what are you doing? These reference materials are all about the Blood God, right? Why are you studying the Blood God? Moon Burning Village is a strange phenomenon belonging to the waning moon."

The short, thin young man with freckles on his face raised his head and smiled shyly: "Section Chief, I am studying the "Song of the Red Hole" that I brought back not long ago."

Zhang Qian frowned, sighed, and shook his head in disappointment.

He still remembered the talents that Murong Shangjin showed to everyone when they first met when he first joined the company. He was proficient in six secret languages ​​and had an amazing talent for document translation. His first appearance shocked the old guys in the department, and everyone had high hopes for this young man with amazing potential.

Zhang Qian had even planned the other party's promotion path at that time, hoping that this guy could produce some research results and become his deputy.

But over the past three years, Murong Shangjin has been researching literature in a hitherto unsuccessful way and has not been able to produce any decent results. Sometimes, when he is almost about to achieve some results, he will always be distracted by other topics at the last moment and lose the fruits of his labor, so that he has not achieved any results in three years.

Many of his juniors who joined the company later than him have now held higher positions than him.

Some colleagues with bad personalities even gave him the contemptuous nickname of "Ambitious Brother" behind his back.

"Brother Shangjin is taking on a difficult topic again, even studying a document that is only one page long." A researcher joked.

Zhang Qian sighed and patted Murong Shangjin on the shoulder: "Xiao Mu, what can you find out by studying this? It's just one page, and it's incomplete."

"I have some idea now." Murong Shangjin pushed his glasses and said seriously.

Zhang Qian glared at him, shook his head in dismay, and said, "Okay, okay! If you have an idea, then tell us what you have come up with."

"Yes!" Murong Shangjin stood up with his draft in his hand, ready to give a lecture on the topic on the spot.

Zhang Qian widened his eyes and looked at this subordinate with zero emotional intelligence in shock, his anger rising.

"I just said it casually, but you really wanted to say it!"

"Hahahaha!" The office burst into laughter.

Murong Shangjin blushed, and he stood there, hesitating, "Then, then I won't say it?"

Zhang Qian was so angry when he saw the other person's expression: "Okay, okay, okay! If you want to say something, just say it. I want to see what you have to say!"

Murong Shangjin nodded timidly, and then said: "I feel that I know the desires of the undefeated beast."

"Brother Shangjin, hasn't the desire tendency of the undefeated beast been concluded long ago? It devours the enemy's flesh and blood through one-on-one battles to make itself stronger after victory." said a researcher.

“No, I think it’s more than that. We can draw this conclusion right away from the literature, but the undefeated beast’s desire is not necessarily just to fight.

In "The Song of the Red Cave", in addition to focusing on describing the process of the undefeated beast becoming stronger by devouring the flesh and blood of its enemies, a lot of words were also spent describing how the Duke sacrificed his own life and sent his daughter into the undefeated beast's lair.

A man and a beast were in love for three months, and in the end, the undefeated beast's body dried up and the Duke's daughter became pregnant. I think this is very crucial. "After a short silence, a scholar raised a question:
"Your conjecture has no basis in reality. Becoming stronger through fighting and being good at gladiatorial combat are all things that Death Fight Bandage has verified through his battle with Yi Lei. However, your conjecture only fits the superficial description in the text and has not been demonstrated in reality. According to the rules, it cannot be trusted."

Murong Shangjin quickly shook his head and retorted: "No, no, no! I still have some basis in reality, or I can say that my conjecture is inferred from the details in reality."

"Please continue." Zhang Qian raised his chin, motioning the other party to continue.

As the section chief, although Zhang Qian opposed Murong Shangjin's work habits, he still valued his abilities very much. In many cases, Murong Shangjin's intuition was extremely sharp.

It's not that he doesn't have talent, he just lacks perseverance and is not good at office struggles.

“To prove this point, we must look at the confessions of Su Yue’s family, and also pay attention to what Xia Shou heard from Grand Duke Rosa at the top of the lighthouse.

First of all, Su Yue can prove that the Holy Son of the Blood Mother Cult claims to be the son of Yi Lei, and has been changing his face since he was a child, surrounding her. The Holy Son also mentioned that their family has been monitoring and observing the bloodline of Su Zhengyi from generation to generation. Can we assume that the Yi Lei family is very clear about the blood inheritance of the Su family?
In addition, Yi Lei arranged the ceremony of the Eye of Roots in the Lighthouse of Fear, but in the end he served as the gatekeeper of the Blood Mother Cult's ritual to protect the progress of the ceremony. Isn't this very strange?

The conclusion I am going to talk about next is not what I thought, but the most likely truth currently determined by the Analysis Department. I believe that this truth should be correct, that is, the Eyes of the Tree Roots sect is an organization that cooperates with the Blood Mother Cult and carries out named rituals for the Blood Mother Cult to cover up its tracks.

At the top of the Lighthouse of Fear, Yi Lei handed a piece of moist blood and bones to Grand Duke Rosa. Based on the characteristics of the relic, Grand Duke Rosa gave "Song of the Red Cave" to Xia Shou. In the end, Yi Lei did show some characteristics of the undefeated beast when guarding the gate.

Then can we boldly speculate that the remains of the invincible beast have always been in the hands of the Yilei family and are the holy relics they have protected and passed down.

Is it possible that the bloodline of Su Yue's family, which has been under surveillance and observation, is related to the undefeated beast in "Song of the Red Cave"?
From this page alone, I feel that the story of the undefeated beast has not ended, and the conception of the Duke's daughter may be just the beginning of the story."

Everyone in the office fell silent. They put away their expressions of watching the fun and stared at Murong Shangjin seriously. Everyone was thinking about something.

Although Murong Shangjin's words were somewhat euphemistic, the people present were all elites with high IQs, so they could naturally hear what he wanted to say.

He believed that the ancestor of Su Yue's family in the very distant past might have been the offspring of the daughter of an evil duke and a man-eating beast, and that the ancestor of the Su family was born from the forbidden union of that man and the beast.

Even Zhang Qian frowned when he heard this radical view, thinking that the idea was too bizarre and bold.

Murong Shangjin felt a huge pressure under the gaze of everyone, but he still stuttered and continued to talk about his thoughts:

"Um... didn't the medical department recently launch a blood therapy project with Su Yue as the main body? Her blood can greatly improve the recovery ability of the recipient, and it ignores the abnormality level and is comprehensive."

"I think this is a little bit similar to the scene in 'The Song of the Red Cave' where the undefeated beast transferred all its vitality to the fetus in the Duke's daughter's belly."

"I went to the analysis department to inquire yesterday. The last time Su Yue went to their place, she said that her five senses have become sharper than before, her strength has increased, and her energy has become more abundant. This should be a sign that her bloodline is gradually awakening."

“In addition, this is actually quite easy to prove. As long as we observe Su Yue’s family for a long time, I believe there will be results. Even if we guess wrong, there will be no loss.”

Everyone was silent, and it seemed that someone really began to seriously think about the possibility of this conjecture.

Zhang Qian noticed that the atmosphere in the office was a little off. He patted Murong Shangjin on the shoulder, pushed him back into his chair, and said to everyone:
"Okay, okay, do your own work. As a researcher, having an active mind is an advantage, but make bold guesses and rigorously verify them! We are studying history, not novelists who are looking for novels."

Under Zhang Qian's urging, everyone gradually returned to their research.

Zhang Qian glanced at Murong Shangjin and saw that he was a little depressed. His dejected look was very similar to that of an old friend of his.

Zhang Qian pressed Murong Shangjin's shoulder hard and said softly, "Stay for a while after get off work. I have something to tell you."
