"An unexpectedly missing explorer?"

Lin He frowned with the documents in his hand.

"It's not just these three explorers and villagers," the woman in a short skirt sitting across the Linhe River reached out and opened the document. "In the past three years, the number of missing villagers in villages near Longshan and foreign explorers has reached twenty-nine, and the interval is constantly shortening. The last missing case was only one month ago."

"And you see," the woman turned the document to the last page. "This is the estimated number of wild animals near Longshan. During the period twenty years ago to five years ago, the entire curve fell slightly, and the overall number of wild animals decreased slightly. From five years ago, wild animals began to decrease sharply, and the speed was getting faster and faster every year."

"Is it possible that the nearby villagers are poaching?" Lin He raised his doubts.

"There are situations of poaching among villagers, but not the main reason," the woman shook her head. "In the past ten years, due to the economic development, young and middle-aged laborers in nearby villages have gone out to work and are basically not at home. The physical strength of the elderly in the village cannot support the increasingly high-intensity hunting activities."

"So there is something wrong with Longshan?" Lin He picked up the document and frowned. Subconsciously, he wanted to light a cigarette, but after looking at the woman in the work clothes opposite, he still put the cigarette down.

"And the problem is very big," the woman saw Lin He's small movement, but said nothing, and continued to flip the documents. "With all the missing cases in parallel, we found that there might be clues in one place."

Her hands fell on a mark on the map.

"Longshangu Village?" Lin He looked at the mark on it and read it gently.

"Yes, this village is in a valley in Longshan," the woman nodded. "The first missing case three years ago and the most recent disappearance case occurred in this village, and through comparison, we found that this village happened to be near the center of the figures built by all the disappearance cases."

"This matter is not small. What is the conclusion given by the analysis department?" Lin He smacked his lips and realized that it was a big trouble.

"The seal that can attract blood food," the woman paused, "It is very likely that it is above level 4."

"Level 4?" Lin He was a little unbelievable. The foundation divided the seal into levels 1-9 according to the level of lethality from high to low. Level 4 seal means that it has the power to destroy a small city with a population of 200,000.

This level of seal means that countless people want you to sacrifice your life.

"The good news is that, as far as the situation is concerned, it has not grown yet. The analysis department estimates that its current power is between level 5 and 6 seals," the woman paused, "and it is in the mountains, which means that within its coverage, there will be no large-scale casualties."

"A blessing in disgrace." Lin He sighed and put away the documents on the table. "Okay, then I'll take someone to investigate first."

"Who are you going to take this time?" the woman asked casually, "or Jiujiu?"

"Yes!" Lin He replied, "She is the only one who has no mission at the moment."

"But she still..." the woman hesitated a little.

"I know, she is still a newcomer." Lin He raised his head and looked straight into the woman's eyes. "When we choose this path, we should be prepared for this."

Then Lin He sighed, "Her ability is quite useful to save her life. If anything goes wrong, I will protect her back."

"It's just an ordinary investigation, let alone separation from life and death," the woman smiled, "If you encounter any accidents, retreat immediately, and the foundation will support you."

"Okay," Lin He collected the documents and looked at the woman's face, "Zhou Ya,"

"Hmm?" the woman raised her head.

"You look pretty good today." Lin He said what he thought was.

"Ah? Is that right?" Zhou Ya's face turned red. "At such an old age, I'm not serious yet. Please pay attention to safety. I'll leave first if I have something to do."

After saying that, she couldn't reply, so she quickly walked out of the house and passed by Jiujiu who was about to come in.

"Brother Lin, what's wrong with Sister Ya?" Jiujiu looked at Lin He a little strangely, then looked at Zhou Ya who was leaving quickly, "You're leaving so fast?"

Then she seemed to think of something, and a blazing gossip flame ignited in her eyes, and she ran to Lin He excitedly, "Brother Lin, you and Sister Ya..."

"Pack up your stuff, we're going out for the field soon." Lin He looked up at her and interrupted her next words.

"Ah? Where are you going?" Jiujiu immediately became depressed when she heard something new.

"Longshangu Village."

"Ah, what Sangu Village?"

——

Mo Yu, Mo Yue and Jiang Ling were assigned to the first group. At this moment, they were walking on the established mountain road, carefully looking for clues about whether anyone had walked.

"Jiang Ling, is there anyone in the village who believes in Catholicism?" Mo Yu asked softly while pushing away the bushes.

"It seems that there is no, but a foreign priest came to the village a few months ago and asked someone to build a church in the village. However, he did not preach and stayed in the church every day. If a child came over, he would send some snacks or gifts. " Jiang Ling had just been calling her brother Jiang Hu's name, and her voice was a little hoarse.

Mo Yu handed the water over to moisten her throat, and took out the three crosses Andro had given them before, "For example, such cross?"

"Yes," Jiang Ling took the water, nodded, took out the exact same cross from her pocket, and then was surprised, "Did you meet Father Andro?"

"Yeah, when we went out to stroll in the morning, we saw the church and went over to take a look." Mo Yu put away the cross. He felt that something was wrong with the cross, so he didn't give it to Mo Yue, and he held it all by himself.

As for the cross in Jiang Ling's hand, Mo Yu and she were not very familiar with each other, so it was hard to say that something was wrong with the cross. He was going to find an opportunity to remind Jiang Ling when he went back.

"Brother, Jiang Ling, do you think something is wrong in this mountain?" Mo Yue, who had not spoken out suddenly.

"Is there anything wrong?" Jiang Ling was a little surprised. The trees in the mountains were normal and the grass was normal. Although she had been growing in the mountains, she spent most of her life studying outside and almost never ran into the deep mountains. So she felt that as usual, it was normal mountains and trees.

Mo Yu also looked at his sister strangely. As a person who only went to tourist attractions to climb mountains, he also felt that this mountain was normal.

"I just think this mountain is a bit abnormal." Mo Yue scratched her head and said silly.

"Okay, I understand, the sixth sense of a woman." Mo Yu nodded and responded, "Let's continue to shout, now it's my turn, Jiang Hu~ Jiang Hu~"

Following Mo Yu who was shouting, Mo Yue lowered her head and fell into deep thought. She was the only person among the three who had been in the deep mountains. It was the special training prepared for her parents when she was just practicing martial arts.

"Mo Yue, have you discovered something?" Jiang Ling approached Mo Yue and said slowly. She knew that Mo Yue didn't want her brother to know her specialness, so she often deliberately concealed her.

"In this mountain," Mo Yue thought for a while, "no vitality."

"Violence?" Jiang Ling was a little confused. "It's winter now, and most animals in the mountains have to hibernate. Maybe this is the reason?"

"No," Mo Yue shook her head and asked, "It's almost two hours since we entered the mountain. Have you seen any birds?"

"Bird?" Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment. She subconsciously looked up and saw that the sky was pure and there was no sign of bird flying by.

"Even in winter, birds will come out to feed, and we are located in the south, and winter is not particularly cold," Mo Yue explained slowly as she walked, "but we have been in the mountain for so long and haven't even seen a living creature. Don't you think it's strange?"

Listening to Mo Yue's words, Jiang Ling also found that it was indeed very strange in the mountains. When she was a child, there were many animals in the mountains.

"Jiang Ling, your brother may not have disappeared for natural reasons." At this moment, Mo Yue suddenly said.

"Ah?" Jiang Ling was a little confused.

"Have you ever thought that since superpowers can be born among humans, is there any possibility of the same mutation in animals?" Mo Yue turned to another topic, "Will it be possible for a grass, a tree, or a stone to undergo strange and unpredictable mutation?"

"You mean..." Jiang Ling seemed to realize something.

"The mutations in this world are not all well controlled like those of superpowers. More mutations are strange and unpredictable. They often have some terrible characteristics, such as "Mo Yue stopped and looked deep in the mountains, "kill all living animals nearby."

Jiang Ling's heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and Mo Yue's words forced her to look directly at another possibility.

The disappearance of his brother may be the result of some kind of supernatural power, and the brother is most likely to have encountered an accident.

"It's okay, you see, we have been in for so long, but nothing happened to us," Mo Yue gently hugged Jiang Ling's shoulder, "This means that the trigger of this situation must require some medium, and your brother may not have anything."

"But..." Jiang Ling's voice was a little choked. She knew that if it was a supernatural force, her brother might be in danger. And if it was a supernatural force, even if it was a supernatural force, even if the brother was not dead, relying on her and Mo Yue's power alone, her chances of saving her brother would be slim.

"So I asked you to call the police from the beginning," Mo Yue looked at Jiang Ling, "I believe in the power of the official."

"Yeah!" Jiang Ling nodded.

At this moment, Mo Yu, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked up at the sky, "It's raining."

Suddenly, heavy rain poured down.

Huge drops of water hit the cheeks of three people.

"No. 1, No. 1, this is No. 2. It's raining. Can you receive it?"

The sound came from the walkie-talkie in Mo Yue's arms.

"Received on the 1st, tell No. 3 and No. 4th to evacuate immediately."

“Received on the 2nd!”

At this time, Mo Yu had already returned to Mo Yue and Jiang Ling. When he walked to Jiang Ling, Mo Yu felt that the rain was much lighter. They brought emergency umbrellas, and Jiang Ling slowly supported the umbrellas.

At this time, new news came from the walkie-talkie.

"I saw a dilapidated temple on No. 1 and No. 4. Animals ran into the dilapidated temple. They are now preparing to go to the temple to hide from the rain."

Destroyed temple!

Mo Yue was clever and quickly took out the satellite phone and dialed the number 4 phone number. Soon, the phone was connected.

"Hello!"

"I am Mo Yue, how far are you from the dilapidated temple now?" Mo Yue said immediately after a voice came out there.

"Sister!" The satellite phone was delayed for about a second, but the reply there was quite fast. "We are quite close to the dilapidated temple. Some animals are hiding from the dilapidated temple to hide from the rain, and it seems that some villagers are walking into the dilapidated temple."

"Okay, listen to me!" Mo Yue said in a serious tone. "Immediately! Now! Get away from that dilapidated temple!!! Now go back immediately! We will meet at Jiang Ling's house!!!"

"Okay! Sister!" There seemed to be a little confused about why Mo Yue reacted so much, but she still answered with certainty.
