Chen Huijie parked the car on the spot and looked at the blood-red icicle in front of her in silence.
The overly bright red icicles were a little cloudy, but even though the ice was cloudy, she could still see from the light and shadow shining through the icicles that there were twisted human figures frozen inside.
"Henshin."
"Rider Time! Kamen Rider Lung!"
The blue dragon knight drew the sword from his waist, and red sword energy flashed on it, and the knight's figure also flashed away.
The next second, the huge icicle in front of him shattered into pieces, and pieces of red ice fell to the ground. Also falling to the ground were corpses that were so twisted that their original appearance could no longer be recognized.
Click.
Sheathing the sword, Chen Huijie looked at the bodies lying on the ground for a long time in silence.
Chi chi chi!
The sword flashed, and several neat rectangular pits were neatly arranged in front of Chen Huijie. Then she moved the corpses one by one, so that these homeless poor people could at least have a home after death.
"I'm sorry, it was my fault for letting you die. We had a chance to stop that guy."
After burying the bodies, Chen Huijie took out a few waterless cakes from his pocket that he had originally planned to eat to fill his stomach at noon and placed them in front of the simple grave as a tribute.
"I don't ask for your forgiveness. This just makes me feel a little better."
Standing up again, Chen Huijie looked at the small cemeteries a few more times, turned back silently and prepared to leave, continuing to search for the source of the so-called wailing in this bitter and cold place.
However, just as she turned around and was about to step into the car, a burst of subtle movement instantly caught her attention.
"Who's there first?"
With the excellent hearing after transforming into a knight, Chen Huijie almost instantly locked onto the source of the sound.
It was about ten meters behind the small grave he had dug, behind a cluster of icicles, someone was hiding there, peeping at him.
fade away.
The sword was unsheathed and neatly cut off an icicle next to it. The huge icicle fell to one side and caused a huge vibration. The sound was scary just by looking at it.
If it was just an ordinary person hiding there and peeping at him, he would have been scared to come out and admit that he was peeping, but there was still no movement over there, which meant that it was not an ordinary person.
Come to think of it, why would an average person come to a place like this in their free time? Not only did such a big incident happen here a while ago, but it's also the original gathering place for the infected. God knows what's here?
"This is your last chance. Come out from behind immediately and explain to me why and why you are here. I will judge your crime accordingly."
Chen Huijie approached as she spoke, the sword in her hand flashing red light under the reflection of the sunlight and icicles. On the other side of her waist, Chi Xiao also stayed there quietly, and Chen Huijie's hand had already touched Chi Xiao's hilt.
"Third warning!"
"Oh my, oh my, Mr. Chen, please spare me, Mr. Chen, please spare me. We can chat, but please don't get angry. As our ancestors said: Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth."
Seeing that Chen Huijie seemed to be about to make a real move, the Ice Queen immediately stopped hiding, straightened her clothes, and slowly appeared from behind the icicle.
And when the man with the same disease appeared, Chen Huijie also frowned.
"Mr. Li?"
"Oh my, oh my, being recognized by Sir Chen means I, Old Li, have become a bit famous in Longmen! This is really a good thing, a good thing."
The dragon named Lao Li walked forward with a smile, and was about to grab Chen Huijie's gloves, but when he saw Chen Huijie tightly grasp the hilt of the Chixiao sword at his waist, he immediately changed his posture, opened his arms to greet him, and then slowly closed them as he got closer.
"The Li Detective Agency is located in Longmen. Mr. Li, your agency is more than just a little-known one."
"Ahahahaha, to be recognized by Sir Chen as such, I'm going to have to step up my publicity efforts when I get back. An agency recognized by Sir Chen, as long as we promote this reputation, I'm sure our business will multiply several times over in the next few months."
Seeing that Lao Li was still being smooth and had no intention of mentioning what he was doing here, Chen Huijie lost her patience to continue chatting with him. After all, she had many other things to do, so she decided to find out more about this guy first, and then let him leave this place of trouble as soon as possible so that she could continue her investigation.
"Mr. Li, the circumstances are special, so I won't beat around the bush. What are you doing here? The Imperial Guard has been receiving calls lately about unpleasant wailing sounds being heard in this frozen area. I've been patrolling here all morning and haven't found the source of the 1 ml. And when you showed up just as I was about to investigate further, I had no choice but to make some rather rude assumptions based on the clues I have."
"Ah, no, no, no, no, Mr. Chen, you're joking. I just run a law firm. Usually, people come to me and give me some commissions to investigate things. I earn these commissions to support my family. I wouldn't dare to do anything illegal or that would cause trouble to others.
After all, when you're in the underworld, you can't help yourself. If you accidentally get into a conflict with someone and make an enemy, it would be really difficult to deal with it."
"So what are you doing here?"
Chen Huijie repeated her question once more. Seeing that the girl in front of him was determined to get the answer, Lao Li looked around, thinking about what he had just investigated, and could only sigh helplessly.
"Oh, okay, okay, I really can't hide it from you, Mr. Chen. I came here to do something small."
As Lao Li said this, he took out a compass from his arms. The needle on it was spinning wildly at this moment, and it did not have the stable appearance that a normal compass should have, pointing steadily in a certain direction or swinging regularly within a certain range.
"This is……"
"As you can see, I'm not very well-educated, but I do have some knowledge of talismans and feng shui. In my office, I usually take on some of these mysterious little jobs. I earn money, so I'm not afraid of that.
This time, it's the same reason. Someone has asked me to investigate some strange phenomena happening here. He told me on the phone that he's called the Imperial Guard Bureau repeatedly, but they haven't taken any action. He's extremely distressed by these strange movements, so he can only ask us, the civilian Akatsuki organization, to find out what's going on here.
As he spoke, Lao Li took back the Bagua compass in his hand and gave Chen Huijie a small smile that was quite merchant-like.
"So, you found something?"
"Ah this..."
When he said this, Lao Li showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.
"Why? Is there anything you can't say?"
Chen Huijie frowned at the look on Lao Li's face. In fact, even if Lao Li said that he hadn't found out anything, she couldn't let him tell her anything. If it really didn't work, she could go to his office to ask if there was anything. It would be better to let him leave now.
If you haven't found out, I'll send you away from here first. This is not a good place.
However, just when Chen Huijie was about to say this, Lao Li suddenly said:
"Mr. Chen, do you believe in ghosts?"
"what?"
Chen Huijie never expected that Lao Li would come up with such a sentence for her after holding it in for a long time.
It's amazing. Although the existence of Originium has given the people living on the Terra continent almost magical abilities, with the development of Originium science to its current level, the Terrans generally do not believe in the theory of soul.
Currently on the continent of Terra, the only popular soul theory is within the Sarkaz and the Lateran Church, and the latter is in an awkward situation where it exists if you believe in it and does not exist if you don't.
Noticing this, Chen Huijie instinctively wanted to retort. In this scientific age, you actually still talk about the soul with me. You...
However, before he could finish this sentence, Chen Huijie interrupted his thoughts halfway.
No, no, there have been enough things beyond my imagination that have happened during this period of time, whether it is the so-called power of history, the so-called alien individuals, or the knight system, there are things that go beyond my common sense everywhere. Now this land can no longer be judged by so-called common sense.
In addition, the Lateran religion, which is arguably the only religion on the Terra continent, also mentions the concept of soul, and some literary works of Da Yan also mention the soul. Perhaps...
It’s not that it must exist, but it’s just what if.
Seeing Chen Huijie's conflicted look, Lao Li could probably infer the psychological state of the little dragon girl in front of him.
"Ahem, it seems that Mr. Chen still believes it to some extent. Then I will say it according to this."
Old Carp said this and pointed to the blood ice growing in the distance.
"If that's the case, Mr. Chen, I think there might be a big guy here."
Chapter 286 Blood Mist in Blood Ice
"There might be a big one here."
big guy.
Chen Huijie looked in the direction that Lao Li pointed. There, the ice was no longer crystal clear and turbid white. The eerie blood color was the main color of that area.
Clusters of ice spikes mixed with blood shot straight up into the sky, as if they wanted to pierce the sky and make it bleed.
That was the center of the crusade against the Blood Demon Lord. They fought with the Blood Demon Lord there and eventually killed him.
ghost……
Chen Huijie's face suddenly turned ugly.
No way? That guy won't let us go until he dies?
"Mr. Chen, it seems I don't need to say any more. You seem to have a candidate in mind. If it's convenient, could you tell me who it is? Of course, if it's not convenient, I'm not that curious."
Lao Li laughed, and looking at Chen Huijie's reaction he knew that the dragon girl in front of him should have known the true identity of that terrible thing.
But such a powerful force...
The Bagua compass in his pocket was still vibrating, and the frequency was so high that even though Lao Li put it in his pocket, he could feel that his body seemed to be vibrating along with the vibration of the compass.
The one who is still so powerful after death must be that guy. Before, the infected shanty town in the lower city caused a lot of trouble and even forced Governor Wei to almost make the decision to abandon the slums. The Blood Demon Lord of the Sarkaz is really a terrifying guy.
If I were to deal with this horrible thing myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to handle it. If I contact those old guys, it would probably make things worse, and Governor Wei wouldn't want to see that kind of scene, so it would be best to let Sir Chen know the news now, then go back and tell Governor Wei, and finally let those bigwigs make the decision themselves.
This way, I can get out of the situation without getting involved at all, and maybe even win a five-star good citizen award. Just thinking about it makes me happy... huh?
Lao Li came out of his fantasy, but saw Chen Huijie getting on the motorcycle again without any hesitation and turning around, heading towards the center of the red ice.
"Wait, wait! Sir Chen, wait a moment!"
Lao Li called out to Chen Huijie anxiously. The latter braked the motorcycle, looked back at Lao Li, and spoke very quickly:
"Is there anything else? If not, Mr. Li, please go back to the city. I will investigate this and report to the superiors."
Investigate it, what are you investigating? Do you understand feng shui? Do you understand talismans? Or do you understand the Yin-Yang magic of the Eastern Kingdom? Besides, it's broad daylight now, so even if you investigate, what can you really find?
Isn't the best option to go back and report immediately?
"Ah, no. Sir Chen, what I mean is that this thing is quite troublesome and bothersome. If possible, shouldn't we just go back and report the whole situation to your superiors or find some professionals and make a decision after that?"
Lao Li's eyes flickered, and Chen Huijie heard the hidden meaning in his words, but it was obvious that she didn't want to do that.
"The ghost theory isn't sufficient evidence. Even if I report this, they won't take it seriously and will likely just ignore it. So, I need more solid evidence to prove that these plots of land still harbor a threat that could harm the people of Longmen. Only then can I quickly gain their attention."
What kind of logic is this? Wait, you're not really going to tell this to just your superior, the director? Shouldn't you tell Governor Wei directly? Even if you don't go to Governor Wei, you could probably find some professionals.
Hiss… Could it be that the rumored return of Governor Wei's other niece didn't ease the relationship between Mr. Chen and Governor Wei? Tsk, Miss Chen, now is not the time to cause trouble with your family. You're in trouble.
"Wait, Mr. Chen!"
"What else?"
Chen Huijie stopped starting the motorcycle and looked back at Lao Li, not understanding why he called her again.
"I mean, if you want to investigate, why not take me with you?"
"Hmm? No, although I know that you, Mr. Li, are quite experienced in talisman techniques, you are, after all, just an ordinary Longmen citizen. I don't think the situation is serious enough to involve ordinary Longmen citizens in the case."
No, no, no, in fact, it was already that serious when you made this decision.
Lao Li secretly made hand gestures, and runes flowed in his eyes as he looked towards the place where red ice was condensed in the distance.
Tsk tsk tsk, so full of resentment.
But looking at Chen Huijie's expression, it was obvious that she didn't understand the method involved and couldn't figure it out.
But it's not surprising that young people don't know. After all, the belief in ghosts is indeed third-rate in today's society. In this world, even little ghosts can't be seen, let alone big things. Even Lao Li, who has studied talismans and feng shui for so many years, has never seen such a big monster before.
"You misunderstood. What I meant was that this is all about ghosts and gods. Sir Chen, you're a swordsman, aren't you? A swordsman like you doesn't have the ability to see ghosts, right? In that case, why don't you take me with you? I can also tell you a few things you don't know. Once we find solid evidence, we can go back together."
I hope nothing will go wrong, but as long as we are well prepared, there shouldn't be any accidents.
He didn't bring many of those exorcism talismans or other things with him this time. Those things would not be used once in eight hundred years. Lao Li didn't have many on hand, and he didn't have the habit of carrying too many. He just picked up a few of them, hoping that they would be enough.
Xiao Longnu couldn't persuade him any more, so she could only accompany our Officer Chen for a while, but before leaving.
Look at the time, look at the distance, hmm...
"Moo, if I'm not back by five tonight, go to Rhodes Island and find that Doctor. Tell him there's a big one downtown."
The Doctor from Rhodes Island has been making a big splash in Longmen recently. Lao Li's own intelligence network has also collected some information about this Doctor after he set foot in Longmen and did so many big things, and he knows that the guy is not simple.
Rather than informing Governor Wei and having the bigwigs decide when something goes wrong, it's better to just find someone who can get the job done. Rhodes Island's Doctor is the professional Old Carp mentioned earlier. After all, Rhodes Island has dealt with countless messes in Longmen, and Kamen Rider has become a street hero known even to three-year-olds.
However, if Rhodes Island were to intervene again, the credibility of Longmen officials would inevitably be threatened once again. It was estimated that Governor Wei would have to make some arrangements regarding balance.
I hope that in the end there won't be a need for Moo to go find Rhodes Island.
Putting away his phone, Lao Li looked at Chen Huijie, who had already agreed with him. Perhaps it was because his self-confidence had swelled after obtaining the Knight System. After thinking for a moment, Chen Huijie felt that with him here and Lao Li himself having some abilities, he should not be hurt, so he agreed directly and motioned Lao Li to sit in the back seat of his car.
Riding all the way, we found that the battle took place at Plot 28, which is the central area of the infected shed area.
It was not far from where Chen Huijie and Lao Li had just been. It would only take about ten minutes to drive there by driving a Raider, and about twenty minutes by driving a normal car.
But the deeper they went, the more solemn Lao Li's expression became. Even Chen Huijie, who knew nothing about Feng Shui and talismans, sensed that something was wrong nearby.
laugh--
When they were approaching the red ice area, Chen Huijie immediately stopped the motorcycle and looked around cautiously. At this time, she only felt a little cold all over, and her intuition from years of sword practice told her that there was something around her that was spying on her.
Behind Chen Huijie, Lao Li's brows were squeezed into the shape of those big mining trenches in REM Billiton.
