Someone smiled softly, and then stopped smiling. This time, there was no God to care for them.
He raised his hand, and wisps of forest divine power surged across a distance of more than ten miles and poured into the sword that had just emerged.
"It's time for you to be born."
At the same time, a wisp of illusory images flowed out, awakening the young man from meditation.
Bang--
When the shot was fired, a splash of blood spattered, and a familiar figure fell down.
"Brother Yang!"
Cai Qi exclaimed.
He looked around blankly, and then recalled the very clear picture just now.
"Could it be that..."
Cai Qi stood up. The practitioner's mood was a little unstable. He hurriedly slipped into the room, took out his stick machine from the cabinet, and quickly found the contact person.
Contact, phone, dial, and then a long wait.
The usually short ten seconds seemed extremely long now, and the last sound of the beep was also dragged out many times longer than usual.
"Hey, Mr. Cai, happy New Year." The laughter from the other end made him instantly relieved.
Then, after he relieved his nervousness, he immediately asked, "Brother Yang, are you in the mountains at this moment?"
The person on the other end was surprised and glanced at the leaders in front of him, "Here, what's wrong?"
"How many people?"
"There are several of them, what's wrong?"
The village party secretary surnamed Yang was a little confused as to why he was still concerned about this.
"It's okay." Before he finished speaking, the phone was hung up.
The village party secretary, who was holding the phone, was startled for a moment and muttered to himself that he hadn't told him the location yet.
He was considering whether to fight back when a leading guard in front came over and spoke to him in a low voice.
"What's going on? Who were you talking to just now?" The serious voice sounded like he was interrogating a prisoner.
The village party secretary was startled, his mind changed, and he secretly thought that indeed, they were definitely not ordinary leaders.
"A brother of mine who has been playing since childhood is a famous local Feng Shui master. He asked me if I was in the mountains."
The guard narrowed his eyes and said, "This mission is extremely important and there is no room for any mistakes."
It is very important, so this task... The village party secretary's heart sank, thinking of the inexplicable changes that happened some time ago.
"clear."

Gugu——
A pheasant pulled its head out from the grass and looked around.
It hunched over, looking around furtively, and pecked the ground from time to time.
The next moment, its forehead trembled, its head shrunk and it ran away.
A few seconds later, a group of figures passed by, brushing aside the blades of grass and walking with heavy steps.
"Here is Gaoling Slope, which leads to Dongjiaping, goes down to Langdou Deng, and then goes up the slope to Tongjing Valley."
The leader, a short, fat and sturdy middle-aged man, said this, pointing around with his gloved fingers that looked chubby and giving directions.
"When it comes to what happened here some time ago, there are many opinions in the village."
The middle-aged man also roughly guessed the purpose of their coming here, but he didn't guess in that direction.
In his mind, this was only a small matter, and it would not alarm the country or the central government.
"Oh, brother, what are the opinions in the village?" An energetic old man pushed up his glasses with interest and held a flat-panel monitor in his hand.
"There are so many explanations." The villagers sighed, white mist flying.
"Some people say that the land god in the mountains has awakened, so those sensitive animals are making trouble everywhere."
"Some people also say that the big snake has become a spirit and is about to transform into a dragon."
The short, stocky, middle-aged man chuckled, as if recalling, "That big snake is really big, but it never hurts anyone."
On the shallow snow, there was only one voice, and the group behind them all walked forward in silence.
The old man checked the tablet in his hand from time to time to see where he was.
After entering the mountain forest, it was a different scene. Everything was completely silent, and there was no sound of birds and animals in the forest.
The bird lying on the branch glanced down, then tilted its head and remained motionless.
The beasts in the forest ran away early, leaving behind lines of shallow footprints.
"Wait a minute." The guard stretched out his finger and asked the group to stop.
He suddenly asked, "Fellow fellow, in this winter, will several people in your village go up the mountain together?"
The middle-aged man who took the lead was startled, "No way, today is the last day of the New Year, everyone should be at home."
"It rarely snows here, but every time it snows, people rarely go out."
The guard leaned down and looked at the footprints in the snow.
"No. 42 leather shoes, no label, depth 1.2, weight about 80 kilograms..."
"Seven types of footprints, two ordinary rubber shoes, five hiking boots and leather shoes."
"There are people walking in front, and we don't rule out the possibility that they are other forces."
There are people in front of them, so they should continue moving forward or try another way.
"Fellow, is there any other way to go?" The guard considered the safety of the two experts behind him and decided not to take risks, but to take the safest way to move forward.
At this stage, the authorities are waiting for the results of the exploration here to decide how to deal with it.
If it really contains such a big secret, the top management will choose to handle it in a more secure way.
But it is obvious that the current emphasis on this place is still not great.
Many institutions understand the situation here to be that the stratigraphic cracks caused the air that was hidden deep underground to leak out tens of millions of years ago.
As long as we first explore the geological structure here, we can analyze a variety of possibilities based on the geology.
Whether it is geological movement or other reasons, it will be clear at a glance.
"There aren't any other roads. There were only a few people going up the mountain. Going up the mountain leads to the forest. Forty years later, there are still traces of tiger activity here. Now there are very few people going up there. I don't know if there are any."
The local residents are also very helpless, as there is nowhere to go.
"Professor Tang, we suspect that there are illegal personnel from other organizations in front of us. It is inconvenient to go up the mountain. I apply to return."
The guard took a few steps back and whispered to the old man.
"What are you afraid of? The truth behind these things is that the sooner you find out the better, the slower you go, the slower you go. Could it be that you guys can't protect us old men?"
The stubborn old man glared, feeling full of anger. This was not a battlefield. Could it be that those guys were foreign forces.
The guard's heart tightened. He had expected this situation, so he had to instruct them one by one to prepare for battle.
"Teal, go ahead and investigate."
"yes!"
A guard trotted and disappeared quickly at the end of the path.
