Chapter 7

It was already seven o'clock in the evening, and there were less than five hours left before the "Midnight Fight".

In October of mid-autumn autumn, the day is as short as the day. Now the street lights outside have already lit up and the tide is getting heavier and heavier. The entire Chiyuan Grand Canyon has been swallowed into the vast fog. The faint artificial lights are struggling in the thick fog, like a faint firefly.

If someone is interested, he will find that the entire Chiyuan area is abnormally quiet, silent, and even the noisy autumn insects are lying in the soil and dare not move.

"Director Xiao, the data has been transferred, but this may not be checked."

"Varied……"

"That's right, the conditions you give are too general. There are millions of unnatural deaths in the country every year, and 200,000 to 300,000 people who commit suicide alone. There are more than 1,000 ownerless bodies in Yong'an city that cannot be recognized every year. Even if the so-called "thousands of live lives" is an accurate number, if these thousand dead people are scattered across the country, there is no problem from the statistical data, and this is not considered missing. If the murderer who did this thing secretly killed people, it would not be difficult to hide the body for a month, and the Public Security Bureau may not have received any report!"

The situation was urgent, and Xiao Zheng had no time to ask why Xuan Ji, a great young man, knew so much about the unpopular ancient magic. He turned to ask Xuan Ji on the other end of the phone: "Is there a geographical restriction of 'living animals'?"

"No," Xuan Ji's voice began to be a little distorted. It seemed like a wind was blowing from him. The sharp airflow blew the phone receiver, stirring the signal and his voice together. "There is... the sacrificial text is enough... As long as the sacrificial text is written correctly, let alone the national style... You go to Antarctica to kill people and sacrifice to the sacrifice... You don't need a visa, just use a credit card. But..."

"But" what is behind, the signal is disturbed and I can't hear it clearly.

When Xiao Zheng asked about this, he turned on hands-free, and Xuan Ji's words caused a lot of trouble.

"That's not the world? Director Xiao, this is not enough, he's even looking for a needle in a haystack." The logistics department in charge of external relations was the first to jump out and drag him down. "Besides, we need to have a basis and procedures for transferring the file. The public security system also has confidentiality requirements. This... Is it true if this colleague said...?"

"Director Xiao," the administrative department came to make trouble. "Director Huang called and asked what was going on and asked you to go over and give him a briefing!"

Not only did the Chiyuan Branch not only did not buy it, but also blatantly turned the blame. The wiring staff reported back: "Director Xiao, the front-line manager of the Chiyuan Branch replied that there were three mutant trees in the Grand Canyon that he had not found. He wanted to confirm with you, do you mean to let them leave the monsters alone and withdraw them like this? How do you calculate the losses caused then?"

The Field Safety Department of the headquarters was promoted by two or six: "Director Xiao, there may be some problems mobilizing field reinforcements near Chiyuan area. The personnel dispatched by local branches need to stamp the Field Safety Department of the General Administration before they can move. Look, are you saying hello to Director Song of the Security Department first? Alas? Is Director Song taking annual leave this time?"

The researcher of the ancient cultivation department who first talked about the "sacrificial sacrifice" and felt that the wind was wrong and changed his face quickly: "That... Director Xiao, about the 'gloom sacrifice' and 'demon', they are all legends without smoke, lacking supportive information, and there has been a lot of controversy. Our ancient book restoration department only cares about restoring ancient books and does not guarantee the authenticity. It cannot be used as a basis for action. You should be careful...be careful."

Heroes from all walks of life were like meetings, and they were talking and talking in Xiao Zheng's ears. The scene was so chaotic that it was endless, and all came to restrain themselves, and none of them cooperated with him.

Director Xiao didn't know how many days he was angry and resentful, and became a "goubuli" who had no popularity. What's the reason for this? It's been a long story - this summer, the top leader of the General Administration of the Different Control Bureau retired. Director Huang, who succeeded him, was an outsider, but he was still an ordinary person.

Isn’t this nonsense to let an ordinary person be a different control bureau and manage a bunch of special abilities who fly and escape from the sky?

No one believes that there is nothing wrong with it. So far, the new director has been in office for nearly a quarter, and not to mention management, it is not accepted by those arrogant and talented people at all. For this reason, the headquarters has set up a new department called the "General Dispatch Station". The people inside are all drawn from the previous front-line field office, as a communication bridge between the ordinary director and the talented people.

The administrative level of the general dispatching station is half a level higher than that of other departments. In an emergency, other functional departments can be temporarily skipped, resources can be coordinated, and orders can be issued directly. In this way, Xiao Zheng, the head of the general dispatching station, becomes the "under one person, above ten thousand people" in the different control bureau.

Xiao Zheng used to be the head of "Thunder", one of the three elite field forces. He went wherever he was at risk, and everything he had to exchange for real military merits. At that time, everyone admired him. Even the problem of not being able to be harmonious in dealing with people can be promoted as the "true nature of a master."

However, being promoted by Director Huang like this is equivalent to promoting him from "General of the State" to "General of the East Factory".

So overnight, Xiao Zheng offended the entire Field Security Department except the Special Forces.

Some people say that he was confused by the officials. In order to climb up, he didn't even want his face and actually acted as a lackey for an ordinary person. Some people say that his nostrils were connected to the sky, and his current dust and aloofness was not visible, and his villain's sarcasm was unaware of his sarcasm.

Everyone is adults. Although they are muttering behind their backs, they are usually polite on the surface, but they just don’t encounter any problems. Once they encounter problems, the opportunity for liquidation will come. People come over to smell it, and they say everything they say, and they must write the four words "betrayal of all relatives" on his face.

But it was raining all night. At this moment, a "click" sound came from the phone, and the contact between Xuan Ji suddenly broke down.

The corridor of the hospital where Xuan Ji is located has turned into a large refrigerator. His mobile phone is not resistant to low temperatures, and halfway through his words, the screen is black.

"Don't chat?" Sheng Lingyuan was very interested in this lively "message box". Although Xuan Ji deliberately speeded up his speech and vaguely spoke, he didn't understand a word, but he still listened with relish and stopped ringing, and asked, "Have you talked about the constitution?"

The face of contemporary technology cannot be lost. Xuan Ji cursed in his heart, while letting his phone fly back to his chest bag as if nothing had happened, trying to use his body temperature to make this thing stay for a while. The doors and windows of the hospital corridor were cracked, and there was no idea which floor of the TV was still on. At this time, the sound of the TV in the corridor could be vaguely heard, and the ending song of the news broadcast sounded - this meant that it was at least 7:30.

The people in the hospital were quickly moved into various ambulances and official vehicles. The noise was noisy downstairs, but this floor was so quiet that it was heard. There were only two living creatures, Xuan Ji and the Big Devil. Xuan Ji stood by the window, and Yu Guang glanced downstairs. Some patients in the hospital were not easy to move. No matter how efficient the fieldworkers were, they had to take some time. He had to delay as much as possible.

Blinking off the cream on his eyelashes, Xuan Ji's mind turned rapidly and slowly squeezed out a smile.

"This...hehe, senior, look, it's not yet midnight's turn. You're just here, so there's nothing urgent to do, right? Why don't we talk?"

In the General Administration of the Foreign Control Bureau, Xiao Zheng was surrounded by a group of people, with countless pairs of eyes watching the fun on his head. He was angry and could not bear to face. The more angry he was, the whiter his face became, and his lips were pursed into a line.

"That Director Xiao," the Administrative Department raised the phone tentatively, "Director Huang..."

Xiao Zheng looked up at him, and the administrative clerk felt that there seemed to be a thunder flash in his eyes. He was startled. He couldn't hold the phone and slipped off his hand.

Under the gaze of unknown people, Xiao Zheng reached out to catch the administrative mobile phone, pressed the hands-free, and calmed down: "Director, I am Xiao Zheng. Based on my twelve years of experience in front-line field, I judged that this is a major emergency. If you believe me, please give me permission. When the processing is completed, I will brief you as soon as possible. If there is any problem, I will bear all responsibilities."

Director Huang was silent on the phone, and everyone around him also remained silent. The general dispatch room that was boiling in Yingtian fell silent just now.

At this time, another phone ringing suddenly rang, and the staff came forward to answer it. Because it was too quiet around, he unconsciously lowered the volume: "General Administration Dispatch Room, please tell me...what? Uh...Okay, I'll convey it immediately."

The staff who answered the phone put down the phone: "The head of Chiyuan Branch called again and said that the situation had changed. A field team they left at Chiyuan Hospital for emergency reports. The source of Chiyuan's abnormal energy was suspected to be in Chiyuan Hospital. The branch requested reinforcements, and... Director Xiao's next instructions."

"There is a reinforcement for Director Song of the Security Department..."

"That's not necessarily. Reinforcement is here." A voice that was not serious about hearing it came from the door of the general dispatch room. The person came was a big boy in his early twenties at most. He was wearing a dark gray uniform with the word "Wind God" embroidered on his collar. He had a stopwatch around his neck, dressed like a physical education teacher, with red lips and white teeth on his face. Seeing everyone's eyes, the boy grinned and his heels were at the same time, "'Wind God' Special Forces, Zhang Zhao, the First Detachment, asks all leaders to be good evening - our boss... No, our boss happened to be out of town today. I heard that Chiyuan needed support, so I immediately sent an authorization fax to ask me to hand it over to Director Xiao, and report to you that the Fengshen Squad closest to Chiyuan is already on the way."

Xiao Zheng's "mother's family" - the three special forces of the Extraordinary Control Bureau, "Wind God", "Thunder" and "Thunderstorm", referred to as "Wind and Thunderstorm". Although it is nominally uniformly allocated by the Field Safety Department of the General Administration, it has a high degree of autonomy.

Especially the "Wind God" among them.

Any abnormal energy incidents that cannot be handled in the entire territory will be summarized into Fengshen. This special force has the strongest mobility and has traveled in various places all year round, so it means "will be unacceptable to the orders of the outside king". The above team leader can directly ignore the opinions of superiors and act independently if they think it is necessary.

Unexpectedly, the brothers were willing to stand on his side openly. Xiao Zheng opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Zhang Zhao walked in, smiled and swept across his face with different expressions, handed a printed document to Xiao Zheng, and took a step back and saluted: "Director Xiao, our boss said, you were from our "Wind and Thunderstorm". If others don't support your work, can we still retreat? Wait for your instructions!"

Director Huang, who was silent on the phone, finally spoke out: "Xiao Xiao, you are in full control of Chiyuan's affairs."

Xiao Zheng gritted his teeth and gave Zhang Zhao a look that was silent, without delaying for a second: "I'll find a way to contact Xuan Ji, the aftermath department. He is on the front line, and the phone just went off."

Xuan Ji, who was on the front line, was shameless and was close to the big demon.

"I think the 'selves can only be invited to offer a gloomy sacrifice like you... uh, 'selves' means noble, big, and big." Xuan Ji tried to imitate the accent and tone of the big demon. Unfortunately, this ancient dialect is like a foreign language. He can listen and speak, and does not have the selves of the big demon's re-reading function, and imitate the strange tone.

Although Sheng Lingyuan was tied up by iron chains, his posture was very relaxed, and his smile deepened a little. He didn't say anything, watching the performance of the little demon in front of him who changed his face like a book.

Xuan Ji was thick-skinned and ran to Antarctica, and he still dared to let go of his throat and talked a lot: "In our market economy era, there are generally many ways to solve problems. Those who do evil tricks when they disagree. They are usually stupid people with pitiful brains... Cough, absurd people. Do you respond to the call of such people and don't lose their status... don't you feel that you have lost your identity?"

"The gloomy sacrifice is a technique to communicate with the world. Since I have been awakened by this person, I must have something to do with him, otherwise his blood will not flow into my coffin." Sheng Lingyuan said slowly, "What's more, all the identity and non-identity are false names in front of me, and I can't remember it."

"That's true," said Xuan Ji, a difficult client, who had seen many times. After a while, he said without changing his face, and he flattered, "Of course the identity of ordinary people who give you peace does not matter. It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not, but isn't your attitude here? I'm not blind."

"Oh? Is this kind of demeanor?" Sheng Lingyuan suddenly leaned forward, and the iron chains tied him suddenly tensed up, making a clear collision sound. The dark and gloomy black priest suddenly crawled out of his neck and spread along his neck to his face. The black and white were clearly distinguished, and the handsome face became gloomy in an instant.

Just so happened that Luo Cuicui, who had already run out, received a call from Xiao Zheng and was ordered to deliver a cell phone to Xuan Ji. She finally plucked up the courage to run to the stairs. Seeing this scene from afar, his legs became weak and he knelt down with a "thump".

Sheng Lingyuan didn't even look at him, and waved his hand lightly: "No gifts and calmness - the sacrifice can bring me back to the world, and naturally it also has constraints on me. I finally saw the light of day again, so why bother to ruin my own business? It's just a wish of a mortal, it's just a simple task."

Xuan Ji's eyes twitched.

Sheng Lingyuan laughed and said softly: "It's almost half past the Xu hour."

"Recruit, take the lead..." Luo Cuicui shivered without saying a single word, saying "Lingling" and was afraid to come over. Finally, he became wise and kept stolen from eight feet away. He put his phone on the floor, pushed forward and slid to Xuan Ji's feet, "Xiao, Director Xiao Xiaoxiao! I am not helpful here, and it also affects your performance. I am ordered to retreat!"

After that, the coward turned around and was about to run away. Xuan Ji hooked his ankle with a chain and fell to his horse: "Wait."

Luo Cuicui burst into tears: "Leader, I, I, my plant system is flammable and can't go to the front line. You, please treat me as a fart!"

"What's the situation? I just thought you had become a martyr... My phone froze to death... I'm really convinced! When I come back, I'll buy you a box of new ones!" Xiao Zheng held up his cell phone and cursed Xuan Ji on the phone while strode into the conference room.

"Director Xiao, the heads of various places have already taken their place."

Xiao Zheng nodded and said to Xuan Ji: "Photograph the 'shen sacrifice' article you saw, the more complete the better. I asked someone to check it according to the picture. If it is a sacrifice, there must be a sacrifice on the sacrifice, just like if you want to post a stamp address when writing a letter, right?"

"Smart," because Luo Cuicui threw her cell phone too far, Xuan Ji could only yell, "Luo Cuicui, please do some personnel before escaping! Take a picture of the words on the wall and give it to Xiao Zheng - Lao Xiao, listen to me, summoning this devil is a one-time, not a long-term contract..."

Sheng Lingyuan understood the words "once once" and "not long-term", and narrowed his eyes slightly - this little devil actually made his words, so bold.

Xuan Ji spoke quickly: "The reason why evil magic is evil magic is that people who do it like this usually have no good ending. They spend so much effort to summon a big devil who can only do something for themselves. According to my experience, it is probably revenge. And they are desperate and desperate. The dominant behind them is likely to be weak. The gloomy sacrifice is not a trick made by street vendors. You, the field 'elite' of your security department, have never heard of it. This person can not only operate, but also kill a thousand people without knowing it within thirty days. It is so awesome, it is not easy to kill whoever you want, and it takes such a big circle? What will his goal?"

Xiao Zheng suddenly narrowed his eyes: "An important person who is strictly protected, or some unshakable force."

Since he can operate a gloomy sacrifice, even if he is not a special talent, he must have a deep connection with the special talent. He must know the "special talent court" of the different control bureau. If this person is a weak man against some kind of civil forces, he can report the case, but there is no... then, it is very likely that he knows that he cannot obtain official support.

Either the man who manipulated the Yin Sheng was a very wanted criminal, or...

The two of them were silent for a second at the same time, and then they almost spoke in unison.

Xiao Zheng: "His goal is related to us."

Xuan Ji: "Maybe the Yin Shen Festival is targeting your bureau."

Xiao Zheng: "I immediately asked someone to analyze and summarize the case records in recent years."

Xuan Ji: "The big devil is here, today is the deadline for the gloomy sacrifice. The summoner must be nearby, check the surveillance near the Chiyuan Grand Canyon."

There are almost no blind spots in the surveillance near Chiyuan Grand Canyon.

The Grand Canyon is sensitive and there are many tourists here, so the Extraordinary Control Bureau is extremely cautious and has joined hands with the local public security organs to stipulate that all hotels and chartered vehicles around the surrounding area are managed by the Tourism Bureau and private contracts are not allowed. All tourists entering the city must use their ID cards to buy tickets, which is not difficult to check.

At 8:30, Chiyuan Branch quickly checked all hotels near the scenic spot and submitted all the tourists' information registered within half a year to the General Administration database to compare them one by one with the past case archives.

At 9 o'clock, Luo Cuicui threw away the phone, and the contact between Xuan Ji and the General Administration was interrupted again. The hospital building was silent again. Xuan Ji could only hear his increasingly thicker and thicker breathing and the "clicking sound" of water vapor being quickly frozen. He lowered his eyes and shook his shoulders slightly, as if he was overwhelmed. At this moment, another mess of footsteps sounded in the quiet corridor. Xuan Ji paused and maintained his original posture.

"Leader... cough cough cough cough..." The one who ran up was Ping Qianru, who was "human-phobic".

The cool water vapor in the hospital seemed to be about to spread out. She sucked in from afar, like a cold knife that slashed from her throat to her lungs. There were more than ten meters away from Xuan Ji and the others, and Ping Qianru couldn't breathe and could no longer get close to her - I don't know what she is capable of. Anyway, judging from her lung capacity, she not only lacked combat effectiveness, but also might not pass the school physical test.

The fire on the iron chain where Xuan Ji tied the demon in his hand was already quite weak. He was almost frozen and destroyed several times, and then he stood up staggeringly. He was already at the end of his strength and tried his best to support him, but he refused to let go. The big demon was waiting for midnight, and was not in a hurry, patiently teasing the little demon in front of him.

The place where they were was almost frozen into an ice library. In Ping Qianru's view, Xuan Ji was covered with thick ice, and the person was still motionless, as if he had become an ice sculpture. So he shouted in a crying voice: "Woo... they found one... a forum post, and they deleted it just after posting it for a while... Director Xuan, can you say something? I'm afraid..."

"What are you doing like this tragic?" Sheng Lingyuan said to Xuan Ji helplessly, "I think you are not old. If you were an ordinary little demon, you might not have the wisdom to be enlightened yet. Not only will you transform into a complete shape, but you can't see your true body at a glance. I guess you are a natural creature. Before your demon clan's internal strife, the innate spiritual creatures disappeared. One is counted as one, and they are all treasures. It's a pity that you will lose. Be obedient, leave quickly."

Xuan Ji moved the corners of his numb mouth with force, and squeezed out two words without a smile to Ping Qianru: "Sentence."

Ping Qianru: “…”

Xuan Ji took a deep breath and said word by word: "Don't howl, there is still anger, what's the post? Read it."

Ping Qianru choked and said, "Oh... Please help: I ​​think my son is not my son anymore."
