Chapter 169 The ancient fire (seeking a monthly ticket)
The golden figure on the scroll is actually not clear.
The whole painting also looks a bit sloppy, as if it was drawn in a hurry, but this sloppy painting shows features such as a red sky, giant blood-colored pupils, and golden figures.
It felt more like a great terror was coming.
This kind of terror is very weak, probably because this painting fails to show one ten thousandth of its charm, but it is just this faint, with just a trace of terror, it is like being overlooked by a giant blood-colored pupil, without any reason.
Got palpitations.
But in front of the giant blood-colored pupils, there was a golden figure holding a scepter, blocking most of the terror.
"This figure..."
The same golden light is diffused.
Even though it was just a back view, Huang Bureau still had no reason to think that the golden figure was the Xinhuo instructor! Just like that day, that instructor traveled thousands of miles and appeared above the gates of the mysterious world.
"Where did this painting... come from? Has it been authenticated?"
Bureau Huang asked.
Deputy Xiao Liu said, "The person who discovered this painting was the Lin'an City Branch of Baichuan Prefecture. An investigator accidentally discovered it in an ancient house while eliminating evil spirits."
"Later, after identification, this picture is not a strange object, or even a mysterious object, but it does have something special about it."
Bureau Huang said, "What about the age? Have you ever verified the authenticity and specific age of this painting?"
Xiao Liu nodded, "Some bureau chiefs, the specific identity of the author of this painting has not been found. There is no author's name on the painting, but the age of the painting... preliminary judgment is that it comes from the dynasty a thousand years ago."
"I can take it for more detailed identification."
After saying that, Xiao Liu found that Huang Ju was even more shocked and stared straight at the golden figure in the painting. He didn't know why.
Huang Ju waved his hand and left wisely.
The painting has not been taken away yet.
Huang Bureau was still staring at this moment, and after a while, he said, "Is it really the mentor Xinhuo a thousand years ago? This is an exaggeration."
He was not sure about his previous guess.
He continued to search for information and ordered someone to contact Tang Bureau in a secret place. After waiting for a while, he answered the video call from Tang Bureau.
"I saw the painting."
"It is indeed magical, very much like a certain painter recorded that earth-shattering scene by chance."
Back in the secret place, Bureau Tang had also seen that golden figure.
Just being filled with a faint golden halo doesn't mean anything, but this painting most likely records the war that year.
This means that all their previous inferences will be overturned.
The evil didn't just appear a few years ago, nor did it just break out a few months ago, but... it appeared on the Blue Star thousands of years ago, and even a terrible war broke out.
Just by looking at the traces left on the painting, the indescribable charm and terror, one can imagine the horror of the battle back then.
Maybe the sky will collapse and the earth will collapse, which will be more terrible than the disasters Blue Star has experienced so far.
"Did you find anything from a thousand years ago?"
"The age is too long, and the only documents that can be found are that there were many brutal massacres more than a thousand years ago... but it is difficult to determine the authenticity, not to mention the famine, war, and death everywhere in that era.
, I can only be sure that in ancient times, evil things were not everywhere like today.”
"You might be able to find out something more specific by spending more time, but don't expect it."
Huang Hongtian said.
There was no evidence, and the clue was just a scrawled painting, but he and Bureau Tang both tended to believe that a war between humans and evil spirits, or some kind of terrifying existence, did indeed occur in that era.
This seems unscientific.
But this is a mysterious age, and unlike those researchers, they have to rely on science in everything they do.
They trust their intuition more than science.
"It's firewood!"
"Thousands of years ago, the force that resisted the evil attack and protected Blue Star was Xinhuo!"
"This mysterious force is indeed very ancient, even older than we imagined."
Huang Bureau was amazed.
Even though I had already guessed it, I was still frightened at this moment. The part just above the surface of the water was already a huge thing, so what about the one lurking under the water?
In addition to the bloody giant-eyed war shown in the scroll, how many secrets do they not know?
Huang Hongtian was in awe and awe.
"No wonder Xinhuo has more advanced equipment and medicines than us, because they have been silently guarding and researching in invisible places."
"This is an ancient force that has been passed down for thousands of years, or even longer."
"And the mysterious Xinhuo instructor..."
However, Bureau Tang held different opinions regarding that mentor.
"Living for a thousand years is too exaggerated. I prefer it to be a kind of inheritance. The golden figure in the scroll is the fire mentor of a certain generation back then."
"This possibility is indeed very high." Huang Hongtian nodded.
Director Tang continued, "In addition, what happened in that era was probably a local incident. In the past, it was a small-scale invasion of evil spirits, but now it is a full-scale outbreak... Didn't Xinhuo say that the evil world is fully integrated with us?"
On the border, real disaster is coming."
"It was also because of this that Xinhuo began to expand the scale of the organization and appeared from behind the scenes to cooperate with our investigation bureau."
Huang Bureau nodded,
"There is another reason. Awakened people need to embrace mystery in order to improve. But in the past era, evil certainly did not invade all the time, and mystery did not always exist."
"There is no mystery, and the awakened ones will also disappear in the years of time."
"Mysterious organizations like Xinhuo may have had hard times, but they have never stopped protecting them, and they have even remained anonymous."
Thinking of this, he admired him even more.
They are all heroes, but they have never stood in the light.
But just like the golden figure on the scroll, even if there is no light in the world, he can still light the torch with his own power and dispel the darkness and haze.
Gu Lei
…
Yang Chang didn't know that his boss had new speculations about Xin Huo.
However, as an important figure within the Investigation Bureau and an awakened person who is quite advanced in the training sequence, he knows a lot of secrets.
Xinhuo must be an ancient and mysterious organization.
It is inevitable that there is more than just this training base.
And now they will go to other bases of Xinhuo to awaken!
He was not the one who awakened, but Yang Chang was also allowed to go, which made him feel excited.
Leading them is still base instructor Fan Anyuan.
He looked at the eighty-eight students in front of him, some of whom were investigators, as well as talents trained by their Xinhuo base, and said:
"Before departure, I have to emphasize once again that the awakening process is very dangerous. Once the awakening fails, it is likely to result in serious injury or death."
"Organizations do have ways to increase the probability of awakening, but whether they can awaken or not depends fundamentally on the individual!"
"This awakening is not mandatory. If you feel you are not fully prepared, you can still withdraw."
I mainly said this to Xinhuo students.
The exchange trainees from the Bureau of Investigation are basically Level 2 and Level 1 investigators who have passed the assessment. They are already aware of the dangers of awakening. However, newcomers who are ordinary people and have only been trained for a few or ten days may be enthusiastic.
But naturally, no one quit.
The students are very clear about Xinhuo’s benefits, treatment, changes in the world, etc.
Simply pursuing ideals is not enough.
Simply for strength is not enough.
Pure welfare benefits may not be so firm.
But when a variety of conditions come together, and when you are in such a group, the thought of retreat has long been forgotten.
They also want to be the bearers of fire in the dark night!
"very good!"
Fan Anyuan smiled and waved his hand, "Get on the plane now and let's go!"
On the tarmac, the wings of helicopters rotated and slowly rose into the air, quickly disappearing from the sight of the students at the base.
They looked envious.
"When they come back, many of them will be awakened ones."
"I must pass the next assessment!"
…
From the Shuize Base to the ancient village hundreds of kilometers away from Lin'an City, it is not close or far.
For students who are full of expectations, nervousness, etc., the passage of time is still a long time.
It seemed like a long time passed, but the helicopter was still flying in the sky.
At this time, Fan Anyuan said,
"arrive."
"Get off the plane right here."
The helicopter did not land, but hovered in the air more than ten meters above the ground.
The cabin door opened, looking down into a lush forest, but a relatively flat open space had been cleared below.
The landing rope has been hung down from the cabin door. Fan Anyuan or other officials pointed at the rope and said, "Slide down. Although you have not been trained, with your physical fitness, it is not a big problem to fall down.
It doesn't matter, I will watch you from below, you won't fall to death."
After saying so, Fan Anyuan jumped out of the helicopter.
He tapped his feet in mid-air, and invisible shock waves spread out. The momentum of his fall immediately slowed down, as if he was landing lightly.
This is his awakening ability ‘Shock Wave’, and its use is quite sophisticated.
The other one or two people realized that the fire was official and also landed one after another.
Then there are the students.
I'm afraid it's a little bit, but it's impossible.
Just like dumplings, the students landed one by one on the ropes. Some of them bumped and fell, but the problems were not major. There were no serious accidents.
Just looking at the lush forest in front of them, the students became a little confused again.
This doesn't look like a base.
So does Yang Chang.
Under the leadership of Fan Anyuan, hundreds of people walked through the dense jungle.
The forest here is lush and it is in a remote place, but it is surprisingly free of evil and evil.
The forest is quiet.
The forest ahead is getting denser and denser, with their branches and roots blocking the way. The dappled sunlight is almost completely blocked, and no trace of pedestrians can be seen.
Just when Yang Chang thought he had to cut down trees to clear a path, suddenly, the densely intertwined branches separated one by one.
It's like two hands folded together, slowly pulling apart to both sides.
In the blink of an eye,
In front of the forest with no place to stay, there is an extra path for several people to walk side by side.
Yang Chang stared at a few big trees not far away, his eyes widened.
