Barrier of Light

The tide recedes and the sun shines like scales.

Chu Ling's body turned into thousands of fluorescent lights and drifted away with the tide. This time, her birth still ended with the sound of the surging tide.

However, she is no longer alone.

Gu Shen put away the red and white sacrificial robes with a faint smile in his eyes.

This time, he could finally stay with her until the last second of his life.

"Gu Shen!"

"Gu Shen!"

The little iron man ran over from a distance and saw the empty lounge chair. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously said: "Where is my sister-in-law?"

"She's back."

Gu Shen smiled and scolded: "Okay, let's get down to business."

Shen Li had no doubts and said seriously: "Bad news, all the accomplices Hong Xi and Chen Lin confessed are dead."

"died?"

The smile disappeared from Gu Shen's face.

"That's right... I just sent people here to prepare for surveillance, and these people committed suicide without warning." Shen Li said helplessly: "I can guarantee that the people I sent out were not discovered."

The list of culprits provided by Hong Xi and Chen Lin did not involve many people.

The distribution is very scattered.

Nagano, Dato, Yinghai, Sequoia, all areas have hidden objects.

Even for the Gu family, it would take time to carry out such a decentralized tracking arrangement in different regions.

"Died so quickly..."

Gu Shen realized something was wrong: "Has the temple already known about Hong Xi and Chen Lin?"

Gecko tail docking.

The temple was obviously aware of Anzi's exposure and spent a long time and a lot of energy sending these people into Dongzhou.

The reason why he sacrificed it so decisively.

There is only one possibility.

The temple is afraid of a larger "list" being exposed.

"Where's Uto?"

Gu Shen suddenly raised his head, with murderous intent already in his eyes.

He doesn't have to catch these small fish, but the third adjudicator Wu Tuo is no small player.

He didn't believe that the temple could casually sacrifice this secret man who had sneaked into the upper echelons!

"Uto..."

Shen Li was silent for a moment and said: "Before the Toze family was investigated, Uto happened to be handling the case and was out of Nagano. Now the adjudication office can no longer contact him."

"Escaped?"

Gu Shen rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.

"Well... [Fengtong] was seconded, and many other methods were also used. Wutuo is not in Dongzhou now. As for where he is...it's not clear yet."

"Where else could it be?"

Gu Shen shook his head, lay down again, and laughed at himself: "...it can only be Guangming City. Tell Nanfeng that there is no need to look for it anymore, Wutuo has already escaped."

Shen Li felt this was ridiculous.

Before the investigation of the Dongze family started here, Uto carried out the mission and then fled Dongzhou without even looking back.

Such a coincidence in this world?

"If you think about it, wouldn't our work have been in vain?"

The little iron man said angrily: "Utuo can escape. Even if there is an expert behind the scenes in Guangming City, it won't be such a coincidence, right?"

"Working hard in vain...it's not like that."

Gu Shen stretched out his hand to signal Shen Li to sit down. He said calmly: "Didn't those dying people in Jiankou Islands be saved? Dongze Masazou died, the Dongze family was expelled, and the cancer in Yinghai was uprooted... Although all the people on the Guangming City's secret list are dead, at least their spy network has also been hit."

The little iron man was worried: "But what to do with the remaining shadows?"

"This kind of thing cannot be eliminated." Gu Shen said lightly: "Compared with these, I am more curious about the person behind this operation in Guangming City. At first, I suspected that it was an old guy from the temple, but now Looking at it, I don’t think it looks like it.”

"How do you say this?"

"I killed the seventh elder of the temple, Longqi, in the Ice Sea."

Gu Shen said leisurely: "People who have stayed in Guangming City for a long time will have a pedantic death aura in their bodies. Probably because they are 'dead soldiers' themselves. They have dedicated everything to the seat of Guangming, so they are always They all want to burn their lives to prove their loyalty... As long as this kind of person has determined the end point, he will move forward no matter what the cost."

Shen Li listened carefully.

"In other words, if the older generation of the temple comes to seek for the 'power of faith' that Higashi Masazo left here, they will only be repulsed and will not give up on their own initiative."

Gu Shen said: "In my expectation, the temple will organize a large number of extraordinary people to launch surprise attacks along the East China Sea. They may even bring the [Holy Book] with them to try to instill the faith of the Snake God followers before the execution in Dongzhou." Dry."

This is also the scene Gu Shen is looking forward to.

Unfortunately.

This scene was not discovered.

In the end, only two small fishes were waiting for death.

"You mean...the person behind this action is not a certain temple elder we know well?"

"good."

Gu Shen suddenly asked: "Do you still remember 'Su Ye' from back then?"

The little iron man looked solemn: "Of course I remember!"

During the Sangzhou Cave incident, a Holy Son suddenly appeared in Guangming City.

Su Ye appeared without any warning!

Of course, this is because Xizhou is very strict about information control... Places of faith such as Guangming City and Holy City have very strict policies from top to bottom.

The will of the top management will be absolutely respected, and leaks of secrets are basically impossible to happen.

If you think about it carefully, this thing is actually very scary.

As powerful as the Tower of Source, recruiting the Four Divine Envoys requires widespread advertising to attract geniuses from across the five continents for "trials." However, Xizhou calmly found a man who was as powerful as Meng Xiao, and even more powerful. The "genius" replaced him as the Holy Son. Before that, no one knew who Su Ye was.

But this does not mean that Su Ye does not exist.

"No matter how the City of Light maintains eternal daylight, there will always be darkness shrouding it."

"During the mission on Mulberry Island, I killed a shadow... This means that there are still countless shadows in Guangming City. The birth of Su Ye is no accident. He has already gone through countless shadows in the depths of darkness. In the trial, what they are waiting for is the death of 'Meng Xiao', because the seats left for them in Xizhou are limited."

Gu Shen said calmly: "Only when the predecessors die in the sun can their shadows stand in their place."

"..."

Shen Li suddenly felt that being born in Nagano was a lucky thing.

These people felt horrified just by hearing Gu Shen's description.

"Guesses, these are just my guesses."

Gu Shen smiled and said: "I guess this test of the Jiankou Islands is not the work of the old antiques in the temple, but the masterpiece of a certain 'shadow' they carefully cultivated. As for the reason... it is very simple. Longqi is dead. , the position in the temple is vacant again. This is probably an extremely cautious person, who has long believed that there is a conspiracy in the case of the Dongze family, so he prepared the most decisive move and jumped in resolutely. "

"Wait a minute, if he knew there was a conspiracy, why did he send people to test it?"

"Because he's in the temple."

Gu Shen said softly: "If the temple wants the 'power of faith', he must get it. Those old guys don't care how you get it, they only care about the results."

Shen Li understood.

If Gu Shen's guess is true.

Then this "shadow" is probably sad. He has to obey the orders of the temple. Even if he knows that there is a pit in the Kedouchi Islands, he has to jump into it.

"In this case, the planner will most likely be in trouble."

The little iron man whispered: "For us, we just laid out the plan, but we didn't get the big fish we expected... But for the [Temple], they suffered heavy losses this time. They lost their wives and lost their troops." .”

"..."

Gu Shen looked at the tide. This time he just remained silent and did not answer.

…

…

"Lord Yuan Yang, the 'Tiguse Case' has been settled. The Isakou Islands have been completely blocked, and all the believers cultivated by Toze Shozo have been killed... This information has been released to the public."

"This time, we suffered heavy losses."

"The two secret agents you appointed have been killed. The 'dreams' of Hong Xi and Chen Lin have lost contact with the temple. Their dream instructions for betraying Guangming City came from Red Lake. The list of the number one secret agent has probably been It was revealed... There are a total of eleven members involved in this list, all over Dongzhou, and no one has been exposed before."

Temple devotees kneel before the loft.

The second elder in the attic, Yuan Yang, looked pale and his knuckles turned white.

Jia Wei, who was sitting aside, looked calm.

"How could this be so...how could this be so..."

Yuan Yang's fingers holding the teacup were trembling. He looked at Jia Wei: "Honghu really gave such guidance?"

"Boom."

Jia Wei didn't drink tea from beginning to end. He was wearing heavy armor. As for the bright light armor helmet, he hadn't taken it off for more than ten years. He came here just to see Yuan Yang's expression at this moment.

"How does the Red Lake guide you? You will know if you go and see for yourself."

Jia Wei said calmly: "I clearly rejected you that day and said I couldn't take it forcefully. You have also seen the result... You should be glad that this time you only sacrificed two dark men. If you had gone with your original idea and made a big splash, , taking a group of people eastward to steal the power of faith, what will be the outcome?"

Yuan Yang murmured: "Dongzhou has been ambush for a long time... How could Hong Xi and Chen Lin betray them?"

"It doesn't matter, the result has happened."

Jia Weidao: "These are troubled times, and someone must be responsible for the loss of the temple this time..."

Yuan Yang recalled the treatment of the temple, his voice hoarse: "Since I did something wrong, I am willing to be punished, so today, you come with the results of the execution?"

A whole hidden line was exposed. Since Dongzhou had already taken precautions, it was likely that more plans would be involved.

There is also a very important figure in this hidden line.

The third adjudicator, Uto.

"The loss is not as big as you think. The people behind the scenes have already executed themselves." Jia Wei said: "The clues in Dongzhou are completely broken, and there will be no follow-up to this matter."

Yuan Yang was stunned for a moment.

"The secret line members self-executed...Where is Uto?"

"Utuo is still alive. Calculating the time, he should just return to Guangming City."

This series of news caught Yuan Yang by surprise.

"Although your actions are rough, your original intention is good after all, so the great elder decided to let you enter the 'secret prison' to face the wall." Jia Wei smiled and said: "You should know what this means, right? In the secret prison, you may be able to make meritorious deeds. .”

Yuan Yang breathed a long sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked seriously: "The people behind the scenes should not have received the news in time. How could they execute themselves... And Uto, how did Uto escape back to Guangming City?"

"You need to thank him for these."

Jia Wei smiled softly.

Behind him, there was another figure. The room was dim, and the man was hidden in the gloom. He seemed to be sitting in a wheelchair.

There are many such people in the temple.

They are shadows, but they can always be light if need be.

Yuan Yang looked over.

The young man in the darkness nodded slightly and smiled gently.
