Xu Qingyun is using the soul-searching technique on the captured Japanese ninja, invading the opponent's brain with mental power and reading the memory.
Xu Qingyun selectively reads the ninja's memories. Not all memories must be carefully checked, as that would be too slow.
Whenever Xu Qingyun saw unimportant memories, he would glance at them.
Time passed minute by minute.
Neither Long Mulan nor Long Xingchen bothered Xu Qingyun, letting him quietly use the Soul Searching Technique to read the ninja's memory.
At this moment, Xu Qingyun, who was quietly performing the Soul Searching Technique, suddenly retracted his hand as if he was electrocuted.
"ah!!!"
The Japanese ninja let out a scream of extreme pain.
The next second, his eyes widened, he lost his life and refused to rest in peace.
"What's wrong?!"
Long Mulan was shocked and quickly stepped forward to Xu Qingyun's side.
Long Xingchen followed closely behind.
The sudden change shocked the two of them.
Seeing the nervous look on Long Mulan's face, Xu Qingyun shook his head gently: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Seeing that Xu Qingyun didn't seem to be in trouble, Long Mulan felt relieved, and then continued to ask: "What happened just now?"
Xu Qingyun pointed at the Japanese ninja who was still staring at death and said: "This guy's brain has been tampered with. To put it simply, someone set a mental trap in his brain."
"The leader of the other party may know that one day, his subordinates will be subjected to soul-searching techniques and memory searches, so he sets a mental trap in the mind of each subordinate."
"Once someone has the mental power to touch this trap, they will attack."
"Attack the soul-seeker and destroy the host's brain."
"However, this mental trap is too weak to hurt me."
After listening to Xu Qingyun's explanation, Long Mulan and Long Xingchen finally understood what had just happened.
"These Japanese people are really insidious. They don't forget to plot against others." Long Xingchen said with an angry look.
Fortunately, the person who performed the Soul Searching Technique was Xu Qingyun, who had strong mental power and was not afraid of attacks from mental traps.
If it were someone else who performed the Soul Searching Technique, he might have been tricked. Then the gains would be lost.
"It's a pity that we didn't know in advance that there was a mental trap set in the other party's mind. If we had known in advance, we could have cracked the mental trap first, and then used the Soul Searching Technique, so that we could completely read this ninja's memory." Xu Qingyun sighed softly.
Once the mental trap is triggered, in addition to attacking the mental intruder, it will also kill the host.
This Japanese ninja did not die in the hands of Xu Qingyun, but in the mental trap set by his leader in his mind.
"It doesn't matter, no matter what conspiracy they have, they can never cause trouble in China!" Long Mulan said in a cold voice.
Xu Qingyun smiled slightly and said: "It's not that I gained nothing, I also read some useful memories."
When Long Xingchen heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really, tell me quickly."
Xu Qingyun sorted out the memories he read in his mind, screened out the useful ones, and then said: "This Japanese ninja belongs to an organization called the Amaterasu Ninja Regiment."
Amaterasu Ninja Group?!
When Long Xingchen and Long Mulan heard this, they both frowned slightly.
Obviously, the two of them had heard of this organization.
Long Xingchen said: "We know that the Amaterasu Ninja Regiment is one of the four major organizations in Japan. It is mainly responsible for intelligence work. This organization can be found in various countries around the world. They quietly infiltrate their members into various countries around the world.
This is very impressive and cannot be achieved by ordinary organizations.”
"And their members are trained from a young age, and those orphans are specially selected and brainwashed from an early age. They are extremely loyal to the organization, and it is almost impossible for betrayers to appear."
"Unexpectedly, the organization behind this Japanese ninja is actually the Amaterasu Ninja Corps."
Xu Qingyun continued: "I learned from part of the memory read by this person that he and another companion have been lurking in China for almost ten years."
"As for whether they transmitted intelligence for the enemy country, I was anxious to find the memory of them going to Zhou Hanhai's secluded place, so I didn't check it carefully, so I don't know."
Long Xingchen caught the key to Xu Qingyun's words and asked with some urgency: "Then do you have any memory of seeing them going to Zhou Hanhai's secluded place?"
"Yes!" Xu Qingyun nodded, "But there is only a part of the memory. The rest triggered the mental trap in the other party's mind before I could check it."
"What did you see?"
The person asking the question this time was Long Mulan, her beautiful eyes looking directly at Xu Qingyun.
Long Mulan also wanted to know what other secrets Zhou Hanhai was hiding.
"I saw a secret letter." Xu Qingyun replied.
"Have you seen the contents of the secret message?" Long Mulan asked again.
"I saw it, but I couldn't understand it. I'll write it down and you can study it yourself."
While Xu Qingyun was speaking, he had already taken out a pen and paper from his storage ring.
Under the gazes of Long Xingchen and Long Mulan, Xu Qingyun quickly wrote on the paper.
Long Xingchen and Long Mulan looked at the content written on the paper with strange expressions.
After a while, Xu Qingyun finished writing and wrote several pages of A4 paper.
"Xu Qingyun, are you sure you didn't write it wrong?" Long Xingchen looked at Xu Qingyun suspiciously.
"Do you think I will write it wrong?" Xu Qingyun asked.
Long Xingchen smiled awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed.
"The thing you mentioned that was burned by the two Japanese ninjas may be this secret letter. Although I did not see the burning process in their memory, I guess." Xu Qingyun said.
Long Mulan took several pieces of paper filled with content from Xu Qingyun's hand and looked at them carefully.
What is written on these pieces of paper? They are all numbers, densely packed Arabic numerals, without a single Chinese or Japanese character.
"With how shrewd Zhou Hanhai is, even if he writes a secret letter, it is impossible to write it directly in plain text. He will definitely use encryption means. This is his style of doing things." Long Mulan said quietly.
"Long Xingchen, I leave the secret letter to you. You should handle this matter yourself and find a few people you absolutely trust to decipher the contents of the secret letter." Long Mulan looked at Long Xingchen and said.
"Crack the secret message separately and crack one section first. The main thing is to master the method of cracking first." Long Mulan added.
"Okay, I understand." Long Xingchen nodded in agreement and took the secret letter from Long Mulan's hand.
This matter is over for the time being, and I don’t know how long it will take to crack the secret message.
Xu Qingyun can't care about this.
"I'll leave in the afternoon." Xu Qingyun looked at Long Mulan and said.
Long Mulan nodded, Xu Qingyun came here this time to use the soul-searching technique to read the memories of Japanese ninjas.
After the matter is done, it's time for Xu Qingyun to leave.
Long Mulan looked at Xu Qingyun and said, "Come with me to dinner and I'll see you off in the afternoon."
Xu Qingyun smiled: "Okay."
The two had lunch outside, and Long Mulan specially chose a romantic Western restaurant.
