In the wilderness, with the setting sun shining slantingly, a group of people galloped on the official road, raising clouds of smoke and dust.
These people were all dressed up in leather armor, carrying majestic Yanfei swords at their waists, and riding tall horses.
Among them, Li Fan, who was wearing a flying fish uniform, was surrounded by several soldiers and was riding along with the cavalry.
Amidst the howling wind, the skirts of clothes and long hair were fluttering in the wind, and the long figures were like black dragons flying across the grass.
This time, he was planning to rush to a small town near the Holy Capital to investigate the whereabouts of the mind Huanyangchang.
"I didn't expect it to run outside."
"No wonder the department has been searching for it before but failed to recover it. It turns out that it has begun to recover and become possessed, and has the ability to act independently.
But judging from the shifting trajectories on the map, why does it feel like several other related strands of weirdness are also heading that way?
It seems like something is attracting them..."
In the middle of the cavalry, Yan Yuandi was also following on a fast horse, discussing with him.
Li Ao pondered for a moment and said to him: "You don't know something. People from Tiangangtang have recently researched a new result, which is to assume that these weird things have a genealogy.
Different weird things may seem unrelated, but decades or hundreds of years ago, they most likely came from the same weird thing.
They actually belong to the same source, and there are some mysterious connections between them..."
He vaguely revealed to Yan Yuandi the news of the unification of many strange sources, and the final source was naturally the immortal corpse that brought strangeness and evil to the world in the Tianzi 001 incident!
But there were too many secrets involved. Even if Li Fan wanted to reveal it, he could only be the Riddler he hated most in the past and let him figure it out on his own.
"It's actually like this, weird, source, genealogy..."
While Yan Yuandi was thinking, he came to report from the front.
"Master Li, Tang Baihu from Fulin County led a team to greet him!"
Li Fan looked forward and saw a team appearing in front of him.
It was a 100-household office affiliated with the Zhenmosi system. It was stationed in a nearby large city, but it also had an office in Fulin County where the destination was located.
"Subordinate Tang Long, I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Li."
When Li Fan and others arrived, the other party had already come up to them, dismounted from their horses, and half-knelt on the ground to worship.
"How is the situation now?" Li Fan glanced at everyone and asked.
"Your Majesty, after we received the report, we didn't stop for a moment, and immediately rushed to investigate, and found that there were indeed several strange incidents related to it in the county.
People have begun to die..."
"That means it's moving from the strange level to the evil level!"
Li Chuan's face turned cold.
Yan Yuandi and others who knew the inside story didn't look good either.
Because they knew that the evil spirit leaked this time was related to the giants that ravaged the Holy City that night during the Giant Disaster.
If this is not controlled well, it may turn into a disaster for that county at any time.
Although a single mind is far inferior to the giant himself, it does not have the power of the other twenty-four gods.
But really speaking, the county town does not have that many troops and experts.
If we only count the common people, tens of thousands of lives would not be enough!
"Hurry up, let's enter the city and check the corpses as soon as possible!"
Li Chuan said to everyone.
Casualties have already begun to occur, which is both unfortunate and fortunate.
Because this meant that he could directly find the bodies of the victims and quickly inspect them.
After another cup of tea, Tang Long led everyone to a charity village near the outskirts of the city.
"My subordinates have ordered people to move the corpses here..."
This is the most basic operation. The corpses of people who were harmed by evil spirits should either be cremated and destroyed as soon as possible, or kept for examination by professionals.
But it is not advisable to stay in the city to avoid cheating.
Because there is a strange source of essence left in their bodies, if they make trouble, they may be transformed into evil demons.
This is already considered common sense on the front line of demon-suppressing people.
When Li Huan entered, Tang Long's subordinates were examining one of the corpses.
"Wu Mazi, please tell me what's going on."
Tang Long waved his hand and called Wu Zuo over.
Wu Zuo saluted quickly, and after Li Chuan waved his hand and said resolutely that he had something to say, he got straight to the point: "The victim's whole body was not injured, except that his heart was hollow and he disappeared inexplicably.
According to eyewitness testimony, without exception, they suddenly convulsed, clutched their chests and fell to death, which was consistent with the condition of their hearts being stolen.
They persisted for different times, some fell down in the blink of an eye, while others could persist for more than ten or dozens of breaths, crazy and like wild beasts..."
"Why does this feel a bit like the savages in Savage Valley?"
After hearing Na Wuzuo's words, several subordinates who had followed Li Fan there thought to themselves.
Yan Yuandi also thought of going to the same place and couldn't help but glance at Li Fan.
Li Fan was thoughtful, his eyes moved slightly, and he stepped forward to check on the body.
The other party's chest has been opened, and the place where the heart was originally exposed is indeed empty.
But the strange thing is that there is no sign of blood flowing. The fracture is sealed by a sarcoma-like thing, and the wound has long since healed.
"Original Essence"
The strange power of Ruoyouruowuo lingered in it, and pale writing began to appear.
"This corpse seems to have signs of demonization. Try to complete the examination as soon as possible and then destroy it."
Li Chuan gave a special warning.
“Never spend the night!”
"Yes!" Tang Long, Wu Zuo and others didn't look like novices, so they didn't ask any questions.
Soon after, Li Fan and others entered the city, and local officials came to greet them and fawned over them.
Although Li Chuan's people were not in the civil service system, the Demon-Suppressing Division held the title of Jinyiwei, and they were the emperor's personal soldiers.
This kind of treatment is almost like an imperial envoy.
Li Fan accepted the dinner arranged by the local officials and allowed everyone who followed him to have a good meal, but he refused the next program and only asked people to arrange a rest in the best inn in the city.
Everyone also knew that it was during the mission, so they all obeyed the orders honestly.
Before I knew it, it was midnight.
A figure appeared furtively in a remote corner of the inn.
He walked quickly against the corner and suddenly climbed up like a gecko swimming on the wall.
In the blink of an eye, they had climbed over the wall and landed in the courtyard where Li Kuan and his party were stationed.
He figured out the direction a little bit and walked inward against the wall.
Unexpectedly, Li Fan's subordinates were all elites who had experienced hundreds of battles. Even if there were newcomers like Huang Dahu among them, they had already become strangers.
Soon the guard on duty discovered the other party.
After shouting a warning, he drew his knife and stepped forward to fight with him.
