The Ninth Secret Bureau

"Have you met the dean? What about the others! Where did you go?!"

Fatty Huo asked excitedly, looking around in the dean's room with a flashlight, trying to find the figure that is extremely important to him.

The dean must be the leader of this mental hospital, and it is impossible for him to know the whereabouts of the key, so as long as he catches him, everything will be done logically.

"Run through the wall." Chen Xian kept one hand in his pocket, raised the other hand, and pointed to the direction where the dean had disappeared before. His tone of voice was somewhat helpless, "In fact, this area is full of The ghost it made hit the wall, and we were fooled by it from the beginning."

With that, Chen Xian took Huo Fatty out of the office and into the corridor before.

The scenery of this corridor has changed, or in other words, this is what it really looks like.

The walls are full of traces of being burned by the fire, and the white and brand-new walls before, are only blackened by the fire at this moment, revealing an unpleasant and pungent burnt smell.

"I thought something was wrong before...I also thought about whether this is a domain...but everything looks too real...I was fooled by it... ..."

Standing in the corner of the wall, Chen Xian gently wiped the blackened marks on the wall with his hands.

He has seen many spirit bodies over the years, but most of the domains created by spirit bodies have loopholes, and it is easy to get rid of them without too much effort.

But the domain created by the dean is terrifyingly real. Before entering the office, he can't notice or see any loopholes. The domain can be made so real...the dean is really so strong. ?

Chen Xian was thinking about it in his heart, feeling a little out of it.

Judging from the close encounters, the dean is quite strong, which is the truth.

Before meeting the dean, Chen Xian had the strongest and most agile opponent in the eyes of the corpse he met in the Ningchuan Funeral Home half a year ago.

In Taoist terms, the monster that had a corpse should be called Jiu Shiyi.

"The dead in vain are buried in the dark eyes, the filth gathers in the spirit platform without dispersing, the three souls fly into one, the fetal light is hidden in the seven souls, the corpse is turned into a haunted by the air, there are two souls and seven souls, which is thought to be nine corpses. ."

Nine Corpse Nine is a monster that is extremely difficult to deal with, at least in Chen Xian's eyes. As long as its valve is not broken, this thing is similar to a perpetual motion machine.

Moreover, the corpse qi on its body is extremely corrosive, not to mention the flesh of a living person, even ordinary metal objects will be corroded by this corpse qi very quickly.

This is also one of the most difficult reasons to deal with the nine corpses.

The spirit body that the dean turned into after his death is not weaker than Jiu Ziyi, but it does not have the extremely corrosive corpse Qi of Jiu Ziyi, but is better at creating "domains."

This corridor was previously covered by a domain created by the dean. Except for the office, the area here is at least three to four hundred square meters.

The ability to expand the domain to three or four hundred squares, and also to control every detail, so that senior strangers like Chen Xian can see it away, showing how exaggerated the Dean's ability to construct the domain is.

This ability seems like a tasteless one, and it is difficult to cause substantial harm to people, but in Chen Xian's eyes, this ability is the most troublesome for him.

He is not afraid of fighting head-on, but he is afraid that it will take a lot of work to find the righteous when encountering such a troublesome situation.

"Have you had contact with the dean before?"

Fatty Huo wanted to find a breakthrough from Chen Xian, after all, the dean became a spirit body after his death, and only Chen Xian knew it best.

"Right." Chen Xian nodded.

Fatty Huo asked cautiously: "Did he say anything?"

"Some interesting words."

Chen Xian grinned, with a slightly green face, a little curiosity that could not be concealed.

"The reason why the mental hospital caught fire, and the reason why they died, seems to be because of a mental patient."

Speaking of this, Chen Xian is also a little interested. How terrible is the patient that scares the dean like that?

Even if the dean was dead and turned into a spirit body, he would still be so scared...Chen Xian was really curious, because he had never encountered such a situation.

"I don't recommend continuing the survey work. Even if you want to continue, I can't take you with you."

When Chen Xian said this, his expression was rarely serious, and he was helpless with the current situation.

"This mental hospital is more troublesome than I thought. You have seen the domain created by the dean before..."

At this point, Chen Xian sighed.

"If it separates me from you again, at that time, I can't guarantee your safety. If you meet other spirit bodies, the possibility of death is very high."

Fatty Huo didn't dare to take Chen Xian's remarks lightly, after all, everything he had seen before was evidence.

Not to mention the dean, the hundreds of spirit bodies that he had met before were enough to deter him.

If there is no protection from Chen Xian, how can the risk be low when entering the target area for search and survey in this extreme situation?

After thinking for a while, Huo Fatty said nonchalantly: "If I can, I want to continue searching the scene until I find the key."

"Is the key so important?" Chen Xian couldn't help asking, and he was full of doubts. It was just a cultural relic. Is it necessary to find it at this time?

"The key is a cultural relic that the superiors called and retrieved. Before, Lao Zhou also sent a message to me about the seriousness of the incident. If the key cannot be found in time, let alone me, it is the other people who participated in the case. The people who have had to be held accountable..."

"Your superiors are quite unreasonable." Chen Xian frowned.

"Being reasonable is not a superior." Huo Fatty sighed.

After all, Fatty Huo lighted a cigarette a little heavy, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"Since everyone has died in this fire, it is very likely that the key is still in this mental hospital and has not been transferred by them."

As Fatty Huo said, there was a hint of worry in his eyes: "But that key is very fragile. After all, it is an ancient cultural relic. It is incomparable with our modern keys. It will bend under a little force. If the force is larger, it will be broken and scrapped. risk......"

At this time, Fatty Huo went silent, smoking a cigarette without saying a word.

"That's what you want to find the key?" Chen Xian asked.

"Even if I don't want to, the superior thinks it means I think." Huo Fatty smiled bitterly, "Sometimes we have to listen to the above words. If we don't follow the rules, who knows what they will do with us, after all, the internal changes in the past few years are more complicated. ......."

Chen Xian took a deep look at Fatty Huo, and suddenly smiled.

"Okay, let's keep looking."

Hearing Chen Xian's words very simply, Huo Fatty couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

"Are you not afraid that this mission is risky?" Huo Fatty couldn't help asking, thinking for a while, but decided to say what was in his heart, with a particularly ashamed expression, "The nature of this case is more complicated. If you don't protect it, I, if you cause me to die or encounter other accidents, you will also be held accountable, you can think about it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fatty Huo took a cigarette fiercely, as if he had made some decision, the look in Chen Xian's eyes became complicated.

"Or let's withdraw it, and wait until the follow-up support comes to carry out the search work. After all, you are innocent. If I get involved in an accident...it's not worth it!"

Hearing these words, Chen Xian just smiled and said nothing.

He lowered his head, pulled out the right hand that had been in the pocket of his trousers, and glanced silently, confirming that the wound that had been pierced by the pen had disappeared, and then looked away.

"Uncle Huo, I am not helping you free, if I can...can you satisfy my curiosity?"

Chen Xian touched the ribs that had been restored to their original shape, and there was a hint of interest in his smile. Taking advantage of this opportunity to show favor to Huo Fatty, he asked the question that he had always wanted to answer.

"That key shouldn't be as simple as an ancient cultural relic? I don't believe it to let you come and kill you for an ancient cultural relic."

Hearing this, Huo Fatty couldn't help turning his face, looking at Chen Xian with a vigilant look.

"What are you asking this for?"

"Pure curiosity."

A smile appeared on Chen Xian's green face. He subconsciously touched his nose, and looked at Fatty Huo with a little embarrassment. Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, he took the initiative to say.

"I won't say it if it's inconvenient, I'm just curious, and I don't mean anything else."

Hearing this, Huo took a cigarette, examined Chen Xian carefully for a while, and finally looked away.

"That is a master key."
