Chapter 285: Don’t listen to what you said

There was a violent explosion suddenly in that village, which injured some people. Li Xinzhu was affected and injured in that explosion.

 After the explosion, a large amount of gray-black mist suddenly appeared in the mountain village, floating in the white mist.

 At first they didn't notice anything, but after a while, the people who performed the mission gradually noticed that there was something wrong with their bodies, including dizziness, nausea, and hallucinations.

They realized that they must have been poisoned. Originally, they were wearing professional gas respirators, but due to the explosion, they were damaged a lot and lost their protective effect.

 Then the people who had hallucinations started to attack their companions. Bullets were flying everywhere. The situation was very dangerous and they had no choice but to withdraw.

 The mission was not a complete failure. They also brought out the bodies of several people during the withdrawal.

“As long as everything is fine,” Wang An said with a smile.

“Your calculation is really accurate, I’m convinced!” Li Xinzhu gave Wang An a thumbs up.

"What's going on? Sir, did you figure it out before something happened to you?" Lu Xiangyi on the side asked curiously after hearing this.

"Well, before he went out, he figured out that something was going to happen to me and advised me not to go out, but I didn't listen to the advice." Li Xinzhu nodded.

 “This” Lu Xiangyi’s face was full of surprise.

It’s just that the kung fu is unpredictable, so how can it be predicted in advance?

 “Sir, do you know about physiognomy?”

 “It’s not physiognomy, it’s perception.”

“Perception?” Lu Xiangyi was slightly startled after hearing this.

"Yes, everyone's body has an aura. The aura is not static, it will change. It will change with the strength of a person's body and the level of fortune, or it will change before them." Wang An said He took a sip of tea as he spoke.

"If a person's aura becomes weak, there are generally two situations. One is that he is getting sick, and the other is that his luck is weakening. No matter which one, he may have an accident. , under such circumstances it is not suitable to make some major decisions or work, but should be appropriately restrained and dormant, and recharge your batteries.”

"Can you feel this aura?" Lu Xiangyi still felt a little mysterious after hearing this.

 “Of course.” Wang An nodded.

“How do you feel about my current aura, sir?”

"It's almost the same as when we last met, but a little weaker. It should be because you are tired during this time. Are you very busy recently?"

“I am quite busy. I have been running around everywhere in the past two weeks and have hardly stopped.” Lu Xiangyi took a sip of tea.

 “Can one still practice kung fu to this level? This is almost like spirituality!”

Wang An just smiled and said nothing. Some of the abilities he is showing now are almost out of touch with traditional kung fu and are a bit "fantasy".

 Lu Xiangyi did not stay here for too long, and left in a hurry after two days.

“He always comes and goes, and so does Xu Qi. People like them cannot practice high-level Kung Fu.” Li Xinzhu commented.

"You are right. You are different from them. You can do it. I am optimistic about you."

“Hey, can you use the perception ability you mentioned to see when I can develop Qi?” Li Xinzhu blinked his big eyes and looked at Wang An expectantly.

"Perceptual ability is neither predictive nor omnipotent. When you can practice it mainly depends on your own level of study. As the saying goes, everything will come naturally when it reaches the bridge. Don't be anxious. Only by taking steady steps step by step can you go further. .”

Hmm, Li Xinzhu nodded.

"Actually, the reason why I took the risk and gave it a try this time even though I knew there might be risks is because I felt that I was too comfortable during this period. Didn't you say that after practicing kung fu to a certain level, it needs to be tested in actual combat? One actual battle might be worth months of hard work.”

“Yes, it is possible for people to unleash their huge potential under highly stressful and dangerous situations.”

Practice in the mountain village, even sparring with him, cannot fully unleash Li Xinzhu's potential. Occasionally going down the mountain to experience a battle is also a kind of growth for him.

 In a secret base thousands of miles away from the mountain village,

"This microorganism is a bacterium with extremely strong infection and survivability. In some ways, it is similar to the microorganisms found in the Beiyi Mountains. They can parasitize in the human body and change certain aspects of the human body. These structures can maintain activity for a long time. To put it simply, it is similar to the symbiosis between the human body and microorganisms.”

 A researcher pointed at some squirming microorganisms on the screen.

“Based on Wang An’s description, we can guess that the first corpse that ran out of the coffin also had this characteristic. It should also have a symbiotic relationship with some kind of creature, and the same was true for the corpse in the third coffin.

The person who was ultimately hidden in the golden coffin deep in the ancient ruins may have conducted some kind of experiment. "

 “Experiment?”

“Yes, the three coffins may be the test subjects for an experiment to keep the body immortal.”

 “Ancient scientists?”

“We have never underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. According to excavation records in some historical monuments, ancient people have already begun some very amazing research, such as hybrid experiments between animals.”

“Can we use these microorganisms?”

“Not yet. Their ability to infect is too powerful. Once they invade the body, our defense system will collapse in a very short time.”

"Wang An is fine. He didn't wear any protective equipment or a protective mask, but he was fine. Is this because he is strong enough?"

"Yes, it's because he himself is powerful enough, and those terrible microorganisms are not enough in front of his own defense system. Unfortunately, we can't get even a little bit of his body tissue for research." The researcher sighed. road.

 The man on the side was silent after hearing this. He was silent for a long time before speaking.

“Can this microorganism be inactivated to a certain extent, reduce its infectivity and toxicity to an acceptable level, and then conduct in vivo experiments, just like those vaccines?”

"We are currently conducting research experiments in this area. This microorganism is very strange. On the one hand, it is very scary, highly contagious, and has a very high fatality rate. On the other hand, it is very fragile and can survive in inappropriate environments. In this state, he will die within a very short time.”

These scientific researchers have been studying the corpse in the Immortal Burial Valley. There are several such research bases in other parts of the empire, all conducting similar research.

 Spring is always short and leaves after a short stay. Just after May, the weather begins to get hot, but the wind in the mountain village is still very cool.

Wang An stayed in the mountain village for a while and then left.

He first went to Beiyi Mountain, greeted the person in charge of the base before entering the ancient ruins, and then entered the underground ancient ruins to absorb the energy contained in the sacred stone.

Since the change in the state of Qi, and after this period of practice, there is a certain amount of "empty" space in the body, and he is ready to fill it up. That’s where we arrived at these two places.

 The person in charge of the base reported to the headquarters as soon as possible.

 After coming out of Beiyi Mountain, he immediately went to Burial Immortal Valley. In the same way, he first said hello to the person in charge of the base, and then entered the ancient ruins to absorb the energy in the sacred stone.

 After he came out of Immortal Burial Valley, not long after he returned to the mountain village, Xu Qi found him.

 “I would like to ask you a favor, sir.”

"What's up?"

“Take out the sacred stone from Immortal Burial Valley or Beiyi Mountain.”

"take out?"

"Yes, sir, if you want to use it in the future, just tell me and you can use it at any time." Xu Qi said.

"Okay." Wang An thought for a while and agreed directly, "You choose a place."

 “Okay, I’ll communicate with the superiors right away.”

Xu Qi immediately took out the phone to communicate with the Special Affairs Bureau and asked the people above for their opinions.

 Beijing, the headquarters of the Special Affairs Bureau.

 “What, he actually agreed? Great!”

 “Which one of these two places should I choose?”

“Then follow the previous plan and choose the Immortal Valley for burial. That monument is bigger and there will definitely be more things contained in it.”

"agree."

"agree."

 The Special Affairs Bureau passed the news to Xu Qi.

Two days later, Wang An left the mountain village and came to the Immortal Burial Valley again. He entered the ancient ruins directly, went straight to the stone wall, took out the red crystal stone, took it out, and handed it to The staff waiting outside carefully packed the sacred stone in a special box. It felt like picking up a high-explosive bomb, and then they left with the box.

With the removal of the sacred stone, the danger level of the first corridor of the Immortal Burial Valley historic site has been greatly reduced, and strong magnetic field interference is no longer a problem for them.

They successfully entered the ancient ruins and surveyed the lines, monuments, and bronze pipes in the ancient ruins. At the same time, they also brought out the body in the third bronze coffin.

As for the deeper place, they did not go in. Just these things alone are enough for them to study for a while.

 For a time, the scientific researchers in the base began to work overtime. Research results come out one after another.

"This is a special formation. The lines around the entire passage are a loop. The sacred stone embedded in the stone wall is the core of the formation. The energy it emits can be transmitted through these loops. Once it enters the passage, it will If you are affected, the closer you get, the greater the impact."

“Based on the residual material in the first coffin, we analyzed that in addition to a human corpse, there should be a piece of Tai Sui in this coffin.

There is a large amount of blood in the third coffin. According to the component analysis, most of the blood is the blood of snakes, and there are some special components in it. We are currently analyzing it. The third corpse is a woman. "

 “Woman?”

"Yes, woman, judging from the conditions of these two corpses, we analyze that these two people were still alive when they were buried in the coffins."

 “Live and bury alive?”

 “Buried alive.”

After studying the ancient ruins outside for a period of time, they began to go deeper and prepared to study the deeper ancient ruins. As a result, the team entered the white mist and lost contact directly.

People are missing, and the people who went in to search are also missing.

They immediately realized that there must be something wrong here. Through the analysis of the fog samples they brought out, they found that there was an unknown toxin in the fog that could cause hallucinations. However, the people who went in were wearing gas masks. The theory There shouldn't be any problems.

"what to do?"

"I have a way to ask Wang An to go in and rescue them."

"Wang An, please. Who do you think Wang An is? He's from our side. You can invite me if you want?"

They reported the situation to the headquarters. After some consideration, the headquarters sent Lu Xiangyi and Xu Qi to ask Wang An.

“I told you not to go in, but you still can’t help it?”

"The temptation is too great. The headquarters has said that if you have any requests, sir, just ask us, as long as we can do it, we will definitely do it!" Lu Xiangyi said with a wry smile.

“In addition to the few ancient sites I know, how many bases does your Special Affairs Bureau have?”

“There are two in the southwest, one by the east sea, and three in the north.”

 “Oh, that’s quite a lot!” Wang An couldn’t help but sigh after hearing this.

 “The empire is huge.”

"For the sake of both of you, I will go there again. Is there any cost? I will visit those ancient monuments in the future."

 “Okay, I’ll report to the boss right away.”

 The response from the Special Affairs Bureau will arrive soon, and you are welcome at any time.

Wang An set out the next day and went directly to the land of Xiqiang, the Immortal Burial Valley, through the corridor, down the stairs, and into the white mist underground.

When he came to the straight road, he saw a corpse with a hole in the head. The body had turned into a mummy, and the blood and essence on the body had been swallowed up by something unknown.

 Then the second and third bodies followed. All the corpses of those who came down before were turned into mummies without exception.

 “Are there any living things in here?” Looking at the corpses, Wang An thought of the zombie outside.

“Could it be that the contents of the golden coffin came out?”

Thinking of this, Wang An walked straight towards the palace. When he arrived at the palace, he found that there were more than a dozen corpses in the palace, and the coffin at the end had been opened.

 “Is it really turned on?!”

Wang An walked to the coffin and took a look inside. Inside the coffin was a large piece of white jade, which looked like a piece of fat.

 Just press it in the air, and a piece of it will dent immediately.

 “Is this Ganoderma lucidum? Such a big piece!”

Wang An took a closer look and determined that there was a large piece of Ganoderma lucidum spread under the golden tube coffin. The coffin also exuded a unique aroma, which seemed to be musk.

“Where did the body inside go? Could it be that it came back to life?” Wang An looked around, and suddenly he heard footsteps.
