More than an hour later, an off-road vehicle stopped at the foot of Qingding Mountain.

Chen Chuan and Chang Dong walked out of it.

Chen Chuanchuan: "This place may be more suitable."

Chang Dong looked up, then looked around, and commented: "The location is very remote and the terrain is very high. It looks good here. Let's go up and have a look."

The two of them walked along the stone steps to the top of Qingding Mountain. Chen Chuanchuan said: "This is the Mo Temple I was talking about."

Chang Dong looked at it and said: "Looking at the style, this incense must be at least hundreds of years old, right? But the main body of the building should have been renovated in recent decades." He stepped on it with his foot, "The materials used are really solid, and they are used for martial arts performances.

Enough is enough."

Chen Chuan nodded, Mo Temple has a legacy of fighters. He and Sanchenghuang had a competition here before. In the contest between two third-level fighters, the surrounding ground was still very intact, which shows that

A lot of special materials were used in the original construction.

Chang Dong was not in a hurry to go in. He stood here and looked from a distance, and found that most of the central city could be seen. This should be regarded as one of the highest places in the central city.

He said: "It is indeed good. Just looking at these, it is very suitable as a station, but..."

He looked at the main hall and walked in. Once inside, he looked up at the statue of the God of Strangeness and suddenly said: "It's empty inside."

Chen Chuan followed his gaze and saw that what Chang Dong was talking about was obviously not the statue itself.

And emptiness is relative to reality. He said: "Mr. Chang, are you saying there was something in it before?"

Chang Dong nodded and said: "Today, there are still many gods-sacrifice beliefs in various places. During the cold period, this kind of worship was just a sustenance for the spirit and soul, but during the period of change, it is really possible for some kind of existence to appear.

Some of them came from the opposite world along the rift in the past, and some were born in our native world after the two worlds came close. There should have been such existences in this statue before..."

Chen Chuan was not surprised by this. After all, he had often been exposed to strange stories and anomalies in the past, and he was considered an expert in this field, and such things were often related to religion and sacrifice.

Chang Dong took a few steps forward, looked at the cigarette incense on the table, and twirled it with his fingers, "Ningshenxiang, there must be someone here trying to gather spiritual power in recent months. It may be for this reason that the being inside has been

Take it away. If the being that has been enshrined for a long time realizes that the place of residence is no longer reliable, sometimes it will follow the incense."

"In the past few months..."

Chen Chuan looked at the piece of incense and couldn't help but think of the time when the Heavenly Gate was opened three months ago. He turned around and asked: "Mr. Chang, will this have any impact?"

Chang Dong said: "It's hard to say." He looked at the statue, "Maybe only those who worshiped it at that time knew."

After looking at it for a while, he turned around and said, "This place is suitable, but we are Purists after all. It is a bit inappropriate to use the old religion as a base, and..." He touched his belly,

"I think it will cost a lot to take over and renovate this place. How about we look at other places as well?"

Chen Chuan smiled and said hello.

After leaving here, the off-road vehicle traveled through the city and came to the edge of Hongsheng District, where it stopped in front of a hill.

This time Chen Chuan took Chang Dong to the place where Teacher Wu lived before.

"This used to be a residential open area, but it was completely abandoned later. One of my teachers from Wu Yi once lived on this hill. Well, he still lives there now."

Chang Dong looked at it and saw that there was only a burned ruin. He said, "Don't disturb him?"

"I think he's fine with it."

The two people came to the top of the mountain. Under the strong wind all year round, there were not many things left here.

Chang Dong looked outside and said with certainty: "This place must have been infected by something."

Chen Chuanhuan: "I checked the boundary conditions of this land. At first, Molan Company planned to develop this area into a commercial area, but then Molan Company itself had some problems, and people who came here would get some kind of strange disease inexplicably, so

This place is abandoned again.”

Chang Dong looked at his feet. He bent down and reached out to grab a handful of soil, as if he was feeling something. After a while, he stood up and clapped his hands.

"Something must have been planted under here."

"Something?"

"That's right." Chang Dong drew it with his hand, "This thing is very big, it should be a plant, and its roots are all over this area. If I read it correctly..." He stamped with his foot, "

There should still be a cavity formed by the root system underneath, and there should be residue, so it will continue to affect the surrounding area.

Chen Chuanchuan: "What could it be?"

Chang Dong shook his head and said: "It's hard to say without seeing it, but it comes from the blending place and the biological laboratory." He looked at Chen Chuan again: "Logically speaking, your processing bureau should have records in this regard."

Chen Chuanchuan: "I checked, but it was too long ago and many files were sealed. At that time, I was in a low position and had no way to check. I will go back and look through it again."

Chang Dong waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter if you can't turn it over. This thing is long gone. This should be just a breeding and incubation place for it. These attacks have almost no impact on us fighters. Staying in the blending place for a night

It's more of an attack than if I stayed here for a year.

He groaned, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he touched his stomach and said, "I think this is the place. It's remote and has a large area. These infections are still a deterrent to ordinary people, and they just serve as a barrier."

effect.

Moreover, this area has not been cared about for at least 20 to 30 years. I think this area should be given a little cheaper? After all, the funds allocated above are limited, so I have to spend it sparingly."

Chen Chuanchuan: "If you need help with anything, Mr. Chang, just ask. I am also a member of the Purity Sect."

"I'll take care of these chores. Manager Chen, just leave it alone." Chang Dong said with a smile, "Our colleague should be here in the next few days. It's enough for her to help me."

Chen Chuan did not force it. He did still have a lot of things on his hands, and the existence of this station was never a matter of funds and space, but still a matter of force.

Therefore, as long as he practices seriously and improves his strength, he will be the greatest help to the sect.

"That's it for the settlement. I have one more thing to do here." Chang Dong looked at him and spoke more seriously, "When I came here, I also shouldered a task. I need to make it clear to Director Chen."

Chen Chuanchuan: "Please tell me."

Chang Dong said: "I told you, Director Chen, that when our Purity Sect set up a branch here, was it because a goal was almost wiped out?"

Chen Chuan nodded.

Chang Dong sighed: "That target is actually a member of our Purity Sect, and he is also a talent that we are very optimistic about and cultivate vigorously.

At that time, he had done some bad things, but because of his talents and talents, some senior officials in the faction thought that if he was properly cultivated, he might become a pillar of the faction in the future, so his behavior was tolerated, and he only did some

symbolic punishment.

But this person later became more and more outrageous, intensified, and many of his actions had crossed the bottom line of what we could tolerate, so we finally organized manpower to arrest him."

He shook his head and said: "As you know, the faction already attached great importance to him, but unexpectedly they still underestimated him. After this battle, almost all the men sent by the branch and the faction were wiped out.

Later, someone within the faction reviewed the situation and found that if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him at that time. He deliberately revealed his whereabouts."

Chen Chuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately understood. If this was the case, it was not a counterattack after being encircled and suppressed, but a premeditated killing.

He asked: "I wonder what level this person is at?"

Chang Dong said in a deep voice: "Fifteen years ago, when he was not yet twenty years old, his spirit and body had already reached a perfect level. With his talent, he may have crossed that threshold now."

Chen Chuanchuan: "If he can cross over, he must have someone behind him to support him."

He thought of Chen Bitong. With his talent and lack of sufficient resources, he was unable to break through that boundary.

Chang Dong said: "Let's not talk about him for now. Due to the danger of this target, there are currently people within the department responsible for search and pursuit.

What I want to say is that since the branch was almost completely wiped out at that time, the real situation is no longer clear.

The bodies of most of these colleagues were found at the scene, except for one, and they were never found later. Most people believed that he was sacrificed elsewhere.

But recently, someone discovered his whereabouts, and through some information channels, we realized that he may still be in Central City, so we need to find him and ask him about the situation inside."

As he spoke, he took out a photo and said, "This person."

Chen Chuan took the photo and looked at it. It was a young man in his twenties, with a long face, winking, grinning, showing a mouth full of white teeth. He was wearing an orange-yellow spotted open-collar shirt, and he looked like a

A very confident person who likes to be funny.

But if this photo was taken more than ten years ago, this person must be around forty now.

There is a name on the back of the photo: "Tian Rui."

"I'll keep an eye out," he said.

Chang Dong said: "Well, it should be easier to find someone for the handling bureau. There is no time limit for this matter. It has been going on for fifteen years. There is no rush at this moment. It's just..."

He sighed, "We must have an explanation for those colleagues back then."

Chen Chuan nodded.

Chang Dong looked around and said, "Let's go back first."

Chen Chuan got into his car and drove all the way around the mansion in Wuding District. After getting off the door, he said goodbye to Chang Dong and returned to the mansion.

After he entered the living room, he picked up the box of pure substances placed in the corner and went upstairs.

He thought in his mind that these pure qualities should be enough, but although it was solved here, the spiritual cultivation still needed to be considered.

It would be best if there were cracks. He had heard from Senior Cao before that there were secret treasures in the wild. There might also be cracks in those places. If necessary, he might be able to go there to look for them.

But apart from that, there is actually a possibility.

He put the box down and looked at a corner of the room.

There is the Snow Lord Sword that is still sleeping.
