Chapter 656: Questions about the origin

Unfortunately, Chen Ziyan searched through the inheritance and records related to Gu insects, but could not find any similar cases.

Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly thought of the anecdotes in the inheritance, and maybe he could find useful information in them.

Chen Ziyan found a new idea and immediately started reading again.

This time he didn't return in vain, but he was a little unsure whether what he found was useful.

It was left by a senior Xieling five hundred years ago. When he was out fighting, he encountered a group of strange people.

They are a group of people who are not afraid of swords and guns, and do not change their expressions even if they are attacked by swords and axes.

In this regard, the comment given by this senior Xieling was that those guys simply did not look like human beings.

Chen Ziyan agrees with this evaluation.

Because the feeling those people gave him just now was that these guys didn't seem like living people.

It is precisely because of this commonality that Chen Ziyan feels that there is some connection between the situation encountered by him and this senior.

Of course, he didn't think this was a direct connection, because the people he faced were all Western faces, and his predecessors didn't see many foreigners.

"There are ghosts in Xiling, they look like humans..."

After seeing the last guess left by the senior, Chen Ziyan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although it is somewhat different from the records, maybe this is really a direction. After all, his past experience has proved that many legends in this world are not groundless.

Does that also mean that those Western legends and stories also have unknown prototypes?

Thinking of this possibility, Chen Ziyan squatted down and opened the mouth of the corpse, intending to look at their teeth.

If these guys really have sharp canine teeth, they might really be some kind of supernatural creature.

But when he opened the mouth of the corpse, he was disappointed to find that these cold-faced people did not have those kind of fangs. Their teeth were no different from ordinary people except that they looked sharper.

Moreover, Chen Ziyan could see that the sharp teeth of these corpses were not born that way. The subtle wear marks on them proved that they were artificially shaped.

After some research, Chen Ziyan found nothing, so he could only temporarily give up on investigating what was hidden in it.

After he asked Wushuang Ghost to take good care of the mutated sea monkeys, he got up and returned to the cabin above.

After all, something unexpected happened, and it would be hard for him to not show up all the time.

After arriving at the resting hall above, Chen Ziyan immediately felt the brutality of the battle.

Although someone was already cleaning up, there was blood spilled everywhere, and it was obviously not possible to completely clean it up in this short time.

However, Chen Ziyan felt that most of the things inside may be gone just by cleaning them up and need to be completely replaced.

After leaving the hall, he saw Dong Yanxia who was directing others on the deck.

After seeing Chen Ziyan appear, Dong Yanxia immediately stopped what he was doing: "Mr. Chen, you are here."

Although Chen Ziyan just said that he would have full authority to handle the aftermath, now that he has appeared, it is always not good not to report it.

Dong Yanxia can still grasp this point of propriety.

"Well, how's the situation?" Chen Ziyan asked, looking at the similarly scarred deck.

He had a hunch that the situation might be more serious than he thought.

Because the situation on the ship now is even greater than the noise caused by the sea monkeys before.

"It's okay on our side. Except for the heavy casualties at the beginning, there were no serious casualties later. But the prisoners..."

Having said this, Dong Yanxia paused for a moment, and then said the answer:

"The prisoners are all gone."

"All gone?" Chen Ziyan asked in surprise.

This was an answer he didn't expect.

You must know that the number of prisoners who came over from the opposite ship was probably about the same as them, or maybe even a little more than them, and yet they were all gone?

He didn't think that everyone on that ship was brave enough to die, and there should only be a few people who were like cold-faced people.

The purpose of Chen Ziyan's coming up this time was not only to show his face, he also wanted to question the remaining prisoners.

Since there is no result from his own thinking, he might as well ask someone who is familiar with the cold-faced man, maybe he can get some useful clues.

But I didn't expect that not a single one was left, and they all died in the turmoil just now.

"We have checked that those who are not determined will probably be planted with bombs without knowing it. They are the first to die. The remaining people are extremely stubborn and will decisively commit suicide after being beaten to the point where they can no longer move.

So there is no one left alive at all.”

When Dong Yanxia talked about this, his expression became heavy.

"Suicide?" After Chen Ziyan heard his words, he also understood why he would do this, because it undoubtedly showed that the origins of these people were not simple.

If you fail the mission, commit suicide. That is the way of a dead soldier.

But in this day and age, organizations that can cultivate dead soldiers on a large scale don't need to think about it to know that it's not easy.

"Tell the brothers to forget about this." After a few seconds of silence, Chen Ziyan said slowly.

He planned to remind his guys in this way.

Those who can see the seriousness of the problem probably have already seen it, and those who didn't see it at the time, I believe they will understand what they should do after his reminder.

After all, these temporary workers are not stupid. At most, they just didn't react for a while.

Compared to Chen Ziyan, they actually need to worry more about retaliation because they are easier to find and easier to deal with.

"Master Chen, where is the captain?" Dong Yanxia asked.

He understood what Chen Ziyan meant, but if the captain spoke out, it would be useless if the guys kept silent.

"Our captain is a smart man. After he knows what happened, he naturally knows what to do." Chen Ziyan is not worried about this.

Because the captain is undoubtedly weaker than him and his crew, he will take this matter more seriously than they do.

"Just keep busy."

After saying that, Chen Ziyan planned to leave.

After all, he didn't want to be burdened by these chores. Since his face had been revealed, there was no need to stay any longer.

To be honest, it was already the return trip, and if it wasn't for the sake of face, he wouldn't even want to show his face.

But just after taking two steps, he suddenly thought of something and called Dong Yanxia: "By the way, where are the things those people brought, let me have a look."

He also suddenly remembered that although everyone on the ship was dead, the things they brought over were still there, and maybe something could be found in them.

So I decided to check it out and see if there was anything I wanted.
