Chapter 297 Boring

   "Then let's bury it here." After Wang An finished speaking, the true energy of his body dissipated and merged into the soil under his feet. Then the originally hard soil under Xing Beishan's feet began to loosen and spread to both sides, and his whole body slowly sank into the ground.

   "This?!" Seeing the scene in front of him, Xing Beishan was stunned.

   "This is the method of earth escape, you, you actually practiced a spell?!"

  Wang An just smiled and didn't speak.

   Xing Beishan only felt his body sinking slowly. The soil buried his waist and soon reached his neck. His body was squeezed by the soil around him, making him very uncomfortable, but he couldn't break free.

   Then the soil reached his nose and mouth, and he subconsciously held his breath, and the soil buried his eyes again, and he closed them.

   Tiny sand particles entered his ears and squeezed into his nostrils. The pressure around him was increasing. He subconsciously wanted to breathe, but he inhaled the sand.

  He didn't dare to open his eyes and couldn't breathe. What was more terrifying than suffocation was the feeling of quietly waiting for death.

   At this time, Xing Beishan would rather be shot in the head, or stabbed himself to death with a knife in the heart.

  Time passed by one minute and one second.

  At this time, it is not like a year for him, but every minute and every second is so long, just like a year.

   I don't know how long it took, but just as he was about to pass out, he felt his body was still moving. Suddenly his head loosened, and the surrounding soil seemed to disappear.

  He took two quick breaths, and after confirming that the surrounding soil had indeed disappeared, he immediately breathed heavily. When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the sun in the distant sky had already set to the west.

   "I said, I said."

  Wang An just looked at Xing Beishan calmly.

   "I, I joined a mysterious organization."

  This Xing Beishan’s experience is a bit special. He once served in the army and received rigorous training from the army. After retiring from the army, he entered the security bureau again, but encountered an accident in the process of handling a case and fell into the river.

  His colleagues salvaged him for a long time but failed to find his body, and reported him as a sacrifice.

   In fact, he was rescued by someone. Not only did he save him, but he also cured the hidden disease in his body. Then he joined the mysterious organization and worked for them.

   “What is the purpose of your organization?”

   "Balance, maintain the balance of this world." Xing Beishan said.

   "Balance?" Wang An was a little surprised when he heard this word.

   "That's right, it is balance. The reason why this world can exist is because it is in a relatively balanced state, just like the Tai Chi balance of Taoism. Good and evil, rich and poor, life and death, all need a relatively balanced state."

   "Nonsense, one out of a hundred people enjoys wealth that can't be spent in several lifetimes, twenty people can barely get by, and the rest are either struggling to make a living or living below the poverty line. Is this a balance?"

   "It's a balance between the minority and the majority." Xing Beishan said. "I thought it was absurd at first, but later I felt that this statement made some sense."

   "Why inject that child with the virus?"

   "We judge that your existence will seriously affect the current balance?"

   "Which balance?"

   "The balance between practitioners and ordinary people, the balance between practitioners and the empire."

   "Okay, let's talk about your organization, who are there?"

   "I don't know many people, only a few." Xing Beishan said.

   "A few are enough. What are the names of those people, where do they live, and how can I contact them?" Wang An has already realized that the organization Xing Beishan mentioned is an out-and-out cult. There is no need for such an organization to exist.

   Xing Beishan told the names of several people, and Wang An immediately arranged for Lu Xiangyi to investigate. The results of the search surprised him. Two of them, like Xing Beishan, were dead on the record.

  Under the instructions of Xing Beishan, Wang An found four people in two days, and then alternately used veritaserum and burial alive, and the four of them confessed to more people.

  Following the vines, a huge organization gradually appeared in front of Wang An.

  At the same time, the Special Affairs Bureau also got the news, and it was Wang An who asked Lu Xiangyi to disclose it to them.

   After receiving the news, Fu Xicheng, director of the Special Affairs Bureau, smoked a cigarette and immediately arranged for his confidants to secretly investigate the matter. Unexpectedly, the investigation revealed a trace of clues. Some personnel from the Special Affairs Bureau had reported problems with this organization before, but they were blocked by the relevant personnel.

   That is to say, someone inside the Special Affairs Bureau knows the existence of this organization and is covering for this organization. This person's status is relatively high.

   "Aha, it's true, everyone eats inside and out!" Fu Xicheng laughed directly.

  After being silent for a while, he directly called Ren Shuangjia to his office and told him about it.

   "What do you think?"

   "It's normal. There have been such organizations since ancient times. They tried to manipulate everything secretly, such as the appointment and dismissal of officials, the policies of the empire, and even the replacement of dynasties." Ren Shuangjia said calmly. Few things seemed to shock him.

   "There are people from them among us. I thought the internal cleaning operation was considered thorough, but I didn't expect it!" Fu Xicheng took a deep breath.

   "What are you going to do?"

   "Now that we know, of course we need to investigate. Besides, this time we have a very powerful foreign aid. But we can only use reliable people."

   Soon, the huge Bureau of Special Affairs started to move.

  In a courtyard somewhere in the empire,

   "Someone on our periphery has been exposed, and the Special Affairs Bureau should also start to act."

   "Cut it off in time, as I said, don't provoke some people easily."

   “His presence makes me feel uneasy.”

   "We are just shadows in the dark, manipulating everything in the dark, and cannot appear on the bright side. This is our purpose, and it has been followed for thousands of years."

  Somewhere in the empire, click, a man's neck was broken, and his eyes were still wide open.

   "This organization of yours really has three schools and nine streams. It has everyone, even murderers!" Wang An looked at a person beside him.

   This person is called Lu Ming, and his status is much higher than that of Xing Beishan. The people he came into contact with know more than Xing Beishan, but he is soft-boned. When he saw Wang An, he knelt down directly. Obviously he knew Wang An. He didn't need to torture or threaten him. He told everything he knew.

  In the past few days, Wang An traveled thousands of miles, dealt with a total of 27 people, and destroyed three secret bases. The Secret Service has caught more people than him.

  The actions of him and the Secret Service made some people unable to sit still.

   "This is nonsense!"

   "Old Liu, be careful when you speak."

  "What am I afraid of? I'm dedicated to the public. They arrest and kill indiscriminately. If they want to develop, they can do whatever they want? In my opinion, they have too much power in their hands, and there is no restriction. There is also Wang An. If it is too lawless, it doesn't matter if you kill someone?"

   "Hey, don't mention this matter."

   "What are you afraid of?!"

  In a certain temple in the capital, Wang An looked at the old monk in front of him, who looked over eighty years old.

   "Master who is a monk, the mortal heart is not gone?"

   "Amitabha." The old monk looked at Wang An.

   "The cultivation base of the benefactor has reached the realm of Buddhism's Vajra, it's really amazing!" The old monk said with emotion.

   "Let's talk about it, old monk." Wang Andao.

   "Tell me? There is nothing to say, after all, I haven't seen it through!" the old monk said.

   On the way in, Wang An saw a lot of pilgrims coming to burn incense and make wishes. Many of them mentioned the old monk in front of him, saying that he was a Buddhist monk. Before coming, Lu Xiangyi also said that this old monk is indeed quite famous and has some skills.

  Lu Xiangyi didn't expect that the old monk was also a member of that organization.

   "Isn't the old monk doing it for the common people in the world?"

   "Men Sheng?" The old monk looked up at the Buddha statue in front of him.

   "Not for common people, but for myself."

  "People, when you get old, you will think of death. The older you are, the more afraid you are of death. I thought I had seen through it, but when death came, I realized that I was afraid of death and couldn't face death calmly."

  Wang An was a little surprised by what the old monk said.

   "Someone told me that they have a way to live forever."

   "Does the monk believe it?"

   "I didn't believe it at first, but after seeing their methods, I believed it." The old monk said.

   "As a benefactor, he naturally doesn't need to think about life and death for the time being, or even for hundreds of years. The poor monk is different, seeing that the oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry."

   "Has the monk obtained the law of longevity?"

   "Hey, how can clay sculptures become like diamonds." The old monk sighed.

   Immediately, he told Wang An everything he knew. Then he returned to his meditation room.

  Wang An didn't kill him, because he felt that the aura in the old monk's body was already very weak. He should be suffering from a disease, and he didn't have many days to live.

  In the capital, in a certain courtyard, a rich man looked at Wang An who suddenly appeared, and was stunned.

   "Who are you, why are you here? Come, come!"

   "Stop shouting."

  Wang An directly gave him a shot of Veritaserum, and then the man told everything he knew.

   An hour later, in another heavily guarded courtyard, a man was smoking a cigarette and reading a book.

   There was a gust of wind, without any warning, a person suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

   "You are, Wang An!?" When the man saw Wang An, his eyes froze, and his panic flashed.

   "I have something to ask you."

   "Do you know who I am, you, ah!"

   One shot down, everything is said. These people have poor willpower.

  Special Affairs Bureau, Fu Xicheng's brow is sweating.

  In the past two days, the Special Affairs Bureau has "received" a lot of high-level personnel, and these people were thrown in directly. Several of them broke their bones, and one of them suffered a cerebral infarction due to Veritaserum. He is still lying on the hospital bed.

   There was such a big commotion all of a sudden, many departments began to put pressure on them.

  Wang An, who heard the news, did not leave the capital, but stayed here, met some people, and chatted with them. Opposition voices are much smaller.

  Seeing that the Chinese New Year would be here in a few days, Wang An was about to leave the capital and return to his hometown.

  He had just left the capital, and met a middle-aged man outside the city. This middle-aged man looked ordinary and nothing special, but Wang An felt that the aura of the other party was very strong.

   "Wang An." The man stared at Wang An and called his name, it seemed that he came here specially to wait for him.

"Who are you?"

   "Suhou, I made a special trip here to wait for you."

   "Is there something wrong?"

   "I've heard your name a long time ago, and I want to ask you a lesson."

   "Come on then." Wang An didn't say anything polite.

  The opponent cupped his fists, and then heard a sound, the ground under Su Hou's feet cracked, and the person flew towards Wang An like a cannonball.

  Wang An raised his palm, and King Kong slapped the table.

   With a bang, Suhou flew out obliquely and backwards at a faster speed, broke two trees, and with a bang, smashed a rock before stopping.

  Ahem, he looked at Wang An with shock after he got up.

   Lost with one move, how is this possible? !

  He was full of confidence before he came, but he didn't expect the reality to be slapped in the face.

   "How did you cultivate?!" Su Hou couldn't help asking.

  Wang An didn't answer him, turned around and disappeared in one step. Su Hou's face changed drastically, his lips moved, but he didn't dare to say the words of greeting when he reached his lips.

  The mountain village is still the same, quiet and peaceful.

  When Wang An returned home, he found that there were some more gifts in the house. It turned out that some of them came to visit the two old people during his absence.

  After returning home, Wang An prepared some necessary things for the New Year, such as food, Spring Festival couplets, firecrackers and so on.

   Li Xinzhu also left the mountain village and went home for the New Year.

   With the sound of firecrackers, another year passed.

  After the new year, it snowed again on the second day of junior high school.

   Most people in the empire are still silent in the joy of the festival, but some people have already started to get busy. For example, in a deep mountain somewhere in the southwest.

   “It was a bold decision.”

   "What boldness, this is a crazy decision, sending people in without knowing what is behind that crack, it is very likely that they will lose their lives."

   "The progress of history always takes some risks, just like the first era of great navigation, how many people died at the bottom of the sea, how can they promote the progress of the times without them."

   "What if there's something scary behind that crack?"

  “When we are ready to explore the starry sky, we will not stop because there may be terrible alien civilizations outside.”

   Just after the new year, a top-secret experiment was launched.

  A special team rode special equipment and entered the cracks in the southwest mountains.
