Bulwark of Light

Chapter 953 People behind the scene (third update!)

The tide recedes and the sun shines like scales.

Chu Ling's body turned into tens of thousands of fluorescent lights, which drifted away with the tide. This time, her birth still ended with the sound of the surging tide.

However, she is no longer alone.

Gu Shen put away the red and white sacrificial attire, with a slight smile in his eyes.

This time, he could finally be with her until the last second of his life.

"Gu Shen!"

"Gu Shen!"

The little iron man ran over from a distance, saw the empty reclining chair, was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Where is sister-in-law?"

"She's back."

Gu Shen scolded with a smile: "Okay, let's get down to business."

Shen Li had no doubts, and said sternly: "Bad news, those accomplices that Hong Xi and Chen Lin confessed to are all dead."

"died?"

The smile on Gu Shen's face disappeared.

"That's right... I just sent people to follow up, and these people committed suicide without warning." Shen Li said helplessly, "I can guarantee that the people I sent out were not found."

Hong Xi and Chen Lin confessed to the secret list, not many people were involved.

The distribution is very scattered.

Nagano, Dadu, Yinghai, Sequoia, all districts have Anzi.

Even for the Gu family, it will take time to carry out this kind of decentralized follow-up arrangement in different regions.

"Die so fast..."

Gu Shen realized something was wrong: "The temple already knows about Hong Xi and Chen Lin?"

Gecko docked tail.

The temple was obviously aware of Anzi's exposure, and it took a long time and a lot of energy to send these people into Dongzhou.

The reason why it was sacrificed so decisively.

There is only one possibility.

The Temple fears that the larger "list" will be exposed.

"Where's Uto?"

Gu Shen raised his head suddenly, with killing intent in his eyes.

He didn't need to catch these small fish, but Wu Tuo, the third adjudicator, was no small character.

He didn't believe that the temple could casually sacrifice this dark son who had infiltrated into the upper echelon!
"Uto..."

Shen Li was silent for a while, and said: "Before the Dongse family was investigated, Wu Tuo happened to be handling the case and went out to Nagano. Now the tribunal can no longer contact him."

"Escape?"

Gu Shen rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.

"Hmm... [Feng Tong] was seconded, and many other means were used. Wu Tuo is not in Dongzhou now, as for where... I don't know."

"Where else could it be?"

Gu Shen shook his head, then lay down again, and laughed at himself: "...it can only be Guangming City. Tell Nan Feng that there is no need to look for it anymore, Wu Tuo has already escaped."

Shen Li felt that this matter was very absurd.

Before the investigation of Dongse's house started here, Wu Tuo performed the task, and then fled Dongzhou directly, without even looking back.

Such a coincidence in this world?
"Aren't we working in vain?"

Little Tie said angrily: "Wu Tuo can escape, even if there are experts behind the scenes in Guangming City to guide him, it wouldn't be such a coincidence, would it?"

"Business in vain...it's not enough."

Gu Shen stretched out his hand to signal Shen Li to sit down, and he calmly said: "The dying people in the Jiankou Islands have been saved? Higase Masazo is dead, Higase's family is removed, and Yinghai's cancer is uprooted... Although the people on the dark sublist of the Bright City are all dead, at least their spy network has also been hit."

The little iron man was worried: "But what about the remaining dark ones?"

"This kind of thing is inexhaustible." Gu Shen said lightly: "Compared with these, I am more curious about the person behind the operation of Guangming City. At first I suspected that it was some old guy from the temple, but now Look, I don't think so."

"How do you say this?"

"In the ice sea, I killed the seventh elder of the temple, Long Qi."

Gu Shen said leisurely: "People who have stayed in Guangming City for a long time will have a pedantic dead air on them, probably because they are 'dead soldiers' themselves, and they have given everything for the God of Light, so they are always They all want to burn their lives to prove their loyalty... As long as this kind of person has determined the end point, he will move forward no matter what the cost."

Shen Li listened carefully.

"In other words, if the 'power of faith' left here by Masazo Togase is sought by the elders of the temple, it may only be repelled, and it is impossible to give up voluntarily."

Gu Shendao: "In my prediction, the temple will organize a large number of extraordinary people to launch a surprise attack along the East China Sea, and may even bring the [Holy Book] to try to absorb the beliefs of the Snake God cultivators before they are executed in Dongzhou. Dry."

This is also the scene that Gu Shen was looking forward to.

Unfortunately.

This scene was not found.

In the end, only two small fish were sent to die.

"You mean... the man behind this operation is not a certain elder of the temple that we know?"

"good."

Gu Shen suddenly asked: "Do you still remember the 'Su Ye' back then?"

The little iron man looked solemn: "Of course I remember!"

In the Sangzhou Grotto incident that year, Guangming City suddenly had an extra saint son.

There was no sign of Su Ye's appearance!

Of course, this is due to the fact that Xizhou is very strict in controlling the news... Guangming City and Holy City, places of faith, are very strict from top to bottom.

The will of the high-level will be absolutely respected, and it is basically impossible for such a thing to leak.

When you think about it, this thing is actually quite scary.

As powerful as the Tower of Source, the recruiting of the Four God Envoys needs to be widely advertised to attract geniuses from all over the five continents to conduct a "trial". The "genius" who replaced the Son of God, before that, no one knew who Su Ye was.

But this does not mean that Su Ye does not exist.

"No matter how bright the city maintains the eternal day, there will always be places shrouded in darkness."

"During the mission of Sang Island, I killed a shadow... This means that there are still countless shadows in Guangming City. The birth of Su Ye is no accident. The trial is waiting for the death of 'Meng Xiao', because the seats left for them in Xizhou are limited."

Gu Shen said calmly: "Only when the predecessors died in the sun, can their shadows stand out instead."

"..."

Shen Li suddenly felt that it was a lucky thing to be born in Nagano.

These people, just listening to Gu Shen's description, feel terrified.

"Guess, these are just my guesses."

Gu Shen smiled and said: "I guess the temptation of the Jiankou Islands this time is not the work of those old antiques in the temple, but the masterpiece of a certain 'shadow' they carefully cultivated. As for the reason...it's very simple, Long Qi is dead. , the position of the temple is vacant again. This is probably an extremely cautious person, who has long believed that there is a conspiracy in the case of the Togase family, so he prepared the most decisive last move, and resolutely jumped in."

"Wait, if he knew there was a conspiracy, why did he send someone to test it?"

"Because he is in the temple."

Gu Shen said softly: "If the temple wants the 'power of faith', he has to get it. Those old guys don't care how you get it, they only care about the result."

Shen Li understood.

If Gu Shen's guess is true.

Then this "shadow" is probably also sad. He has to obey the order of the temple, even if he knows that there is a pit in the Jiankou Islands, he has to jump into it.

"In this way, the planner will probably be unlucky."

The little iron man said in a low voice: "For us, it was just a good layout, and we didn't reap the expected big fish... But for the [Shen Temple], they have suffered a heavy loss this time. They lost their wife and lost their troops. .”

"..."

Gu Shen looked at Chao Tide, this time he was just silent and didn't answer.

……

……

"Master Yuanyang, the 'Tigase case' has been settled, the Jiankou Islands have been completely blocked, and all the believers cultivated by Tigase Shozo have been killed... This information has been released to the public."

"This time, we lost a lot."

"The two dark men appointed by you have been killed. The 'dreams' of Hong Xi and Chen Lin have lost contact with the temple. Red Lake has sent the dream guidance of them betraying Guangming City. The list of No. 11 dark line is probably already It was confessed... There are [-] members involved in this list, all over Dongzhou, and no one has been exposed before."

Temple worshipers kneel in front of the attic.

The second elder Yuan Yang in the attic looked pale, his knuckles turned white.

Jia Wei, who was sitting by the side, had a calm expression.

"How could it be...how could it be..."

Yuan Yang's fingers holding the teacup were trembling, and he looked at Jia Wei: "Did Honghu really give such guidance?"

"Boom."

Jia Wei didn't drink tea from the beginning to the end. He was wearing heavy armor. As for the Mingguang armor helmet, he hadn't taken it off for more than ten years. He came here...just to see Yuan Yang's expression at the moment.

"How about the guidance of the Red Lake, you will know when you see it yourself."

Jia Wei said calmly: "That day I clearly rejected you, saying that I could not take it by force. You have seen the result... You should be glad that you only sacrificed two dark men this time. , leading a group of people eastward to steal the power of faith, what will happen?"

Yuan Yang murmured: "Dongzhou has an ambush for a long time... How could Hong Xi and Chen Lin betray?"

"It doesn't matter, the result has already happened."

Jia Weidao: "It's an eventful time, and someone needs to be responsible for the loss of the temple this time..."

Yuan Yang recalled the treatment of the temple, and his voice was hoarse: "Since I did something wrong, I am willing to be punished, so today, you came with the result of the execution?"

A whole dark line was exposed, and since Dongzhou had already taken precautions, it was likely to involve more layouts.

In this dark line, there is another very important person.

The third arbitrator, Uto.

"The loss is not as big as you think. The person with the dark thread has already executed himself." Jia Wei said: "The clues of Dongzhou are completely broken, and there will be no follow-up to this matter."

Yuan Yang froze for a moment.

"Self-execution by members of the Dark Thread...Where's Uto?"

"Wu Tuo is still alive, counting the time, he should just return to Bright City."

This one after another news made Yuan Yang unexpected.

"Although the actions are rough, the original intention is good after all, so the Great Elder decided to let you break into the 'secret prison' facing the wall." Jia Wei smiled and said: "You should know what this means, right? In the secret prison, you may be able to take the blame and make meritorious service .”

Yuan Yang let out a long sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his brow, and asked earnestly, "The people with dark lines should not have heard the news in time, how could they execute themselves... and Wu Tuo, how did Wu Tuo escape back to Guangming City?"

"These, you need to thank him."

Jia Wei smiled lightly.

Behind him, there is another figure, the private room is dim, that person is hidden in the shadows, seems to be sitting on a wheelchair.

In the temple, there are many such people.

They are shadows, but they can always be light if need be.

Yuan Yang looked around.

The young man in the dark nodded slightly and gave a gentle smile.
