"Among the people sent to Honghe Village to investigate, was Lin Yanyan's master, a formation master?"

"Do you know Lin Yan?" Ji Zongyan was surprised and couldn't help but murmur in his heart, is there anything else she doesn't know? Aren't these the secrets of their bureau? It made him doubt whether the secrets he thought were the world's secrets Everyone knows.

Lin Yan was originally a formation master specially hired by the bureau. He was a rare master of formations. He was regarded as a guest in the bureau, respected by everyone, and enjoyed the enshrinement of the country.

But more than a year ago, one day he and a disciple from the Lucheng office were suddenly thrown at the door of the office, with the crimes they committed written on their backs.

It turned out that Lin Yan actually practiced evil magic and set up evil formations to refine souls and protect Lin Yanyan from harming others. According to the rules of the bureau, Lin Yan and another disciple were expelled and sanctioned by the national law bureau. They are still breathing a sigh of relief to this day. , suffering from torture every day.

Could it be that the master who threw the two of them at the door of the office was...

"Is that person you?" Ji Zongyan felt that the case had been solved. He should have thought of it earlier. Wasn't Ye Fan investigating Bai Xingyue's case at that time, and she was the only one with such unfathomable strength.

"Since you have checked so much, you have probably found out that they are all enshrining a beast-faced Buddha statue. Lin Yan and Zhao Rui are the same, and they also worship the beast-faced Buddha statue. The evil method he learned is the beast-faced Buddha cult. For him."

Ye Fan did not deny it, curled his lips and smiled evilly: "Maybe you didn't find nothing at that time, but there was a traitor, and some people couldn't help but be tempted, just like Lin Yan."

She has always believed in the famous saying of Edmond Rocca, the father of forensics - wherever you pass, you leave a trace.

No matter how mysterious the organization behind it is, if they have activities in Honghe Village and have laid out a plan to lure others away with the beast-faced statue enshrining the Nine-Winged Serpent, there will definitely be traces left behind. She even suspects that their base camp is Right in Honghe Village.

She couldn't find it, maybe she didn't find it because of her limited personal ability.

Honghe Village is close to the border, with complex terrain and a wide area. Even though she has advanced cultivation and many methods, she only has one person, and the places and information she can investigate are limited.

But the Bureau of Special Affairs is different. Although she doesn't like it, there is no denying the ability of this agency. It relies on the country and gathers talents and resources from all over the country. If they want to investigate a place, they even have the authority to isolate the entire Honghe Village. , dig into the ground and check.

More than three years ago, they discovered the existence of the animal-faced Buddha statue before she did. They also found out about Honghe Village before she did. They had much more clues and information than she did. Later, they discovered the Hong Marriage in Yekuishan Underground Tomb. Mother and the eighty-nine mummies, the clues also lead directly to Yuncheng in the southern province.

With so many clues and doubts, the investigation lasted for more than three years, and a division chief, Ji Zongyan, had been in the same nest for more than a year. It was too suspicious to even be able to get to the bottom of Little Red River Village.

"You...impossible, don't talk nonsense." Ji Zongyan understood the hidden meaning of her words, and his face, which had always been unchanging when the mountain collapsed, suddenly changed, and he shouted with a stern expression.

"Ji Chu knows if I'm talking nonsense." Ye Fan was calm and composed, with sinister eyes. If he really thought she was talking nonsense, why would he have such a big reaction.

Ji Zongyan's face changed several times. His straight back bent, his eyes were tightly closed, and a look of pain was suppressed between his eyebrows.

Lin Yan was the first group of people to go to Honghe Village to investigate. At that time, the First Division was in charge, while the Second Division was in charge of tracking down those who took away the animal-faced Buddha statues from Honghe Village.

As more clues were dug out from the 'believers', it was discovered that the matter was somewhat serious. After the case was reported, it was determined that there was a mysterious cult using evil methods to lure the 'believers' to join. This cult enshrined a bottle of animal-faced Buddha statues. A special team was also set up here, with the director of a division as the general person in charge.

However, after searching the entire Honghe Village, no trace of the cult was found. Experts from the Bureau's Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3 were mobilized, but nothing was found for nearly a year. In the end, the Bureau no longer focused on Honghe Village.

Moreover, almost no other 'believers' were found later, so no large number of manpower was spent on the investigation, which meant that nothing could be done.

Later, traces of poisonous insects were found in the bodies of the Red Married Lady and eighty-one sacrificial mummies in the Yekuishan Underground Tomb. It was suspected that the two men in black robes who killed the Longbu warriors were from Yuncheng, Southern Province, so they were sent over to investigate. At first, he did not associate the cult that worshiped animal-faced Buddha statues with the men in black robes.

However, as he investigates more deeply, and as his divination phenomena become more confusing and sinister, he gradually sees that the two events are inextricably linked.

And as the clues he found got bigger, he felt the invisible resistance getting stronger and stronger. This resistance not only came from the outside, but also came from the inside.

Why is he looking for Ye Fan, telling her about Zhao Rui's wife murder case, and asking for her help? Isn't it just...

As she said, do you know what's going on?

She once said something in the ancient tomb that she wanted to cooperate with him. She didn't believe in the Special Affairs Bureau, she only believed in him.

Now, why is he not the same?

He no longer trusts anyone in the bureau, even Jingwu, who has been with him for more than ten years. Now, he only trusts her, and she can only trust her.

After a while, Ji Zongyan opened his eyes. His calm and wise eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes. He suppressed the pain and spoke again in a smooth and hoarse voice: "I first came to Yuncheng to investigate the Yekuishan Ancient Tomb..."

After a pause, he looked at Ye Fan faintly, and opened his mouth in an arc: "I think you should also know what the bugs you found in the hearts of the eighty-one mummies are?"

"Yeah." Ye Fan nodded.

"That is the soul-devouring Gu of the witch and Gu clan. This kind of voodoo was lost thousands of years ago. It is one of the top ten kings of Gu in the ancient witch and Gu clan." Ji Zongyan said, and he kept all the information and clues he had found. Told Ye Fan.

Sure enough, it was different as a state agency. The things he investigated were much more detailed than hers. Regarding the ancient witch and Gu clan and the history of the Southern Kingdom at that time, the head of the Miao village personally told him.

"The investigation went smoothly at first, until I found Honghe Village again..." At this point, Ji Zongyan's tone became a little darker.

While investigating the two black robes, he unexpectedly found clues pointing to a familiar place - Honghe Village. He linked the two pieces and prepared for an in-depth investigation.

But he spent nearly a year and made no progress.

Obviously, the truth is right in front of him and he can touch it, but when he really reaches out to touch it, he finds that there is a gap between him and the truth, and there is a force pulling him behind him. , there were even countless ropes shaking his feet.

He can't make any progress.
