The edge of pure land
Chapter 57 Sacrifice Ceremony and Underground Passage
Long Que held the wheelchair and slid into the darkroom: "The big data results have been analyzed and it is indeed a dead man. Annan, 27 years old, a native of the Pure Land, has not entered the extraordinary realm. His previous identity was a living creature A scientist who worked for Northam Biotechnology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Morgan consortium, died seven years ago after he was infected with a virus due to an experimental accident and failed to receive treatment. His family members and social relationships have been wiped out and will not be found for a while. "
"Even if he finds it, it will be of no use. If he can provide clues, he will definitely deal with it in advance. After all, he is a senior member of the Corpse Food Cult, and he will not be so stupid that he would not even think of such a thing."
He paused: "Finding him is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
Lu Fuji pushed the wheelchair for him: "So you can't find it?"
"I haven't finished yet. The difficulty of finding him is indeed like finding a needle in a haystack."
Longque said calmly: "But it's only for ordinary people."
The door to the darkroom opened and light flooded in.
Lu Fuji let out a sigh of admiration.
Because there were newspapers and photos posted everywhere on the wall of the darkroom, it was as dense as a thick wallpaper. Countless clues gathered together and he drew a circle in the upper right corner.
"The priority target of the Corpse Eater Cult's missionary work is the people at the lowest level, that is, the underground neighborhoods. But the underground streets cover a total of five thousand square kilometers. Based on the reactions of the Corpse Eater Cults to various items and the items left in their homes, I , and analyzed what they encountered before joining the religion. That is, there are various ways of preaching in the Corpse Eater Cult, but there are also rules to follow."
Long Que said softly: "Every time you walk, you will leave traces. The senior leader of the Corpse Food Cult is a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder and has very precise time habits. The time and place where he preaches follow a certain pattern. This It is also in line with his characteristics of highly educated talents.”
Lu Fuji looked at the circle he drew and suddenly realized.
"So we need to start investigating from this area?"
Long Que shook his head.
I saw him sitting behind the table in the darkroom, tapping the tabletop lightly, and a hidden grid popped up on the table. In the grid was a metal helmet connected to a cable.
"Since the last incident in the orphanage, I have realized that the underground neighborhood has become the incubation ground of the Corpse Cult. The people gathered there are pitiful and hateful, ignorant and ignorant. It is always a mother's nest that breeds disasters, but there are also some Some... people who have no choice but to survive."
Longque said seriously: "I installed a lot of cameras in that area."
He put the helmet on his head, let the electrodes fit his temples, and casually introduced: "This thing is an invention of Tianzhu City. It was originally just a trial model, but it was later judged to be heretical technology and production was stopped. I used It connects to the Sacred Intelligence Network and steals a lot of data computing power for me, and then it can analyze all the videos in that neighborhood in the past few days."
Lu Fuji was surprised, that area was at least 800 square kilometers.
Longque pressed the start button, and red eyes seemed to light up on the helmet!
The entire dark room was illuminated by red light, and his body in the wheelchair shook violently.
He even made painful sounds.
That's a huge amount of data hitting his brain!
Until he coughed painfully and blood flowed from his seven orifices.
The helmet even showed signs of short circuiting.
Without hesitation, Lu Fuji reached out and tore off the wires, and took off his helmet. The burst of electricity could not hurt him at all, because his numerology not only allowed him to release thunder and lightning, but also provided him with resistance to lightning. , is already developing towards the field of elemental monsters.
"There's no need to work so hard, right?"
He said angrily.
Long Que raised his blood-stained face and smiled silently: "I'm used to it. Things about the Holy Mountain are very important to me... Don't tell Qiangwei and Damon about this."
Lu Fuji frowned, always feeling that this guy was going to kill him one day.
"But there is good news."
Long Que wiped the blood on his face: "I saw him."

Underground block, area 13.
"How's it going, Lao An? Are you almost recovered?" Boss Zhang was busy handling the vegetables on the stall. Since the last black market incident, he spent a day and a half to win the trading rights and management rights for himself. Xiaolu started doing business with that merit ticket.
His target is vegetables.
For the poor, vegetables are harder to come by than meat.
This is something everyone wants to do, but there are no channels.
However, Lao Zhang can rely on Xiaolu's status as a military commander to pretend to be powerful.
Coupled with his tactful way of dealing with people, business started immediately.
"Not bad, thanks to your care these days." Officer An received good treatment during his hospitalization and has now resumed his official duties, patrolling the underground neighborhoods.
Today’s underground neighborhoods are different from those of the past, with patrol drones everywhere.
Law Enforcement Agency robots wander around carrying metal rods.
From time to time there are hounds coming and going, sniffing left and right.
"Hey, you have to thank Xiaolu."
Boss Zhang smiled and said: "If it weren't for Xiaolu, we wouldn't have the good life we have now. I plan to apply to the Population and Resources Bureau to get my daughter back after I upgrade my status in a while."
Officer An leaned on the stall and couldn't help but sigh: "That kid is really amazing. I heard from my colleagues today that he made great contributions in the mission outside the wall yesterday. Now he is an officer with the rank of corporal. I see If you see him, you have to call him sir."
He didn't sound envious or jealous.
I am just happy with the progress of young people.
He was originally an orphan, but later worked hard to get into the police academy and became a public servant.
He loves his profession very much, and after arriving in the Pure Land, he became a supervisor. Now he has no aspirations. He just wants to take a good look at the world and experience the miracles five hundred years from now.
"Yeah, that's awesome."
Boss Zhang suddenly asked: "But speaking of which, did something happen today?"
Officer An smiled and said: "You didn't go to the surface today, did you? That's why you didn't see the huge light pillar in the city center. The high priest was going to hold a heaven-sacrifice ceremony to replenish his divine power, and the entire city was under martial law. The underground neighborhoods that were usually ignored, They will all be forcibly controlled today.”
Boss Zhang suddenly realized that he was the high priest.
In fact, since he emerged from his cocoon, he has also heard about the high priest.
The citizens at the bottom have always been very resentful, often complaining about the unfair policies and the oppression of the top officials, but few people say bad things about the high priest, and even regard her as the hope of the new era.
The main reason is, of course, that the high priest has worked hard to protect the world. Everyone can survive safely because of the miracles she performed.
First, you have to live, and then consider whether the life is good or not.
Secondly, High Priest Lianhua is one of the few clergy willing to interfere in government affairs.
And her various ideas are actually more democratic.
The most important point is the allocation of resources...
“An era with a divine monarch is a good era.”
Officer An recalled the saying that had been circulated in the underground neighborhood before and smiled: "In an era without a sacred monarch, we can only expect the high priest to change this era."
Sirens sounded on the street, and the vendors immediately raised their hands in fear.
The supervisors from the Law Enforcement Bureau strode over: "There is an abnormality in the East Street gas pipeline. Everyone gathered to surround the scene. The maintenance team has rushed there in advance!"
This is a fatal matter, because all kinds of pipes and cables on the surface are buried underground. As long as you look up from the underground block, you will see countless criss-crossing steel pipe tracks.
Officer An asked the question: "Where is East Street?"
He was new here and certainly not familiar with the route.
The underground neighborhood is intricate and intricate, like a large maze.
The supervisors were also stunned. They don't usually come to this place.
And I couldn’t figure it out using navigation, there were no roads in some places!
"I know I know!"
Boss Zhang immediately raised his hand: "I will take you there."
The supervisors nodded slightly, thinking that this old boy was interested.
Boss Zhang had already figured out everything in this area, and immediately led the supervisors to the end of East Street. A harsh scream sounded above his head, and a large amount of steam filled the air.
The street is littered with trash and the elevator to the dome is rusty.
There is no sign of the construction team at all.
"Where are the people?"
Officer An suddenly felt something was wrong and reached for his gun.
However, at this moment, their feet were empty.
"Fuck!"
Boss Zhang’s shouts were drowned in the silence.

Today is December 19, 534 in the Holy Calendar. Gorgeous fireworks exploded over Schengen City. Golden sacred trees were placed in the streets and alleys. People who worshiped the sacred trees would pray in the church and witnessed the huge city center with their own eyes. The pillar of light rises, which symbolizes the sacred ceremony.
Images of the ceremony were played on TV in every household, watching the sacred ceremonial car pass through the city's main road and arrive at the square in the city center amid countless cheers and crowds.
Lu Fuji witnessed the scene of empty streets.
No wonder Longque said that today's action was to commit a crime against the wind.
"Is this the popularity of the high priest?"
"It's terrible," he murmured.
"Ordinary high priests would not be so popular."
Qiangwei was a little proud when she said this: "Our high priest is the most legendary one."
Damon hummed: "Also the oldest one."
"How old are you then?"
Lu Buer shook his head and took the elevator down to the ground.
Today Longque gave them the highest configuration.
Two senior judges of the second realm.
There are also a total of thirty-two low-level judges.
Not only that, Longque also gave him three red crystals.
Lu Fuji didn't know what this was for.
But Longque just told him that there would be a surprise at the critical moment.
He can only use this thing as a bomb.
"You go investigate first, and I will arrive later. If any uncontrollable problems arise, I will force a breakthrough. But remember, the mission is secondary, and life safety comes first."
The voice of Longque came from the earphones.
"Understood, sir."
In the communication channel, the judges responded.
According to the clues found by Longque, the location was located in Area 13 of the underground neighborhood.
The young man named Annan was last seen nearby. He didn't even put on a facial disguise, but walked on the street openly. However, when he entered the alley, he never came out again, and then there were About fifty people came here one after another.
Their behavior is very suspicious, and there must be something fishy in it.
Lu Fuji's operation this time was very low-key, and no one wore the clothes of a judge.
He even took off his military uniform and changed into a black down jacket.
But when they rushed to the scene, they found that East Street was surrounded.
The supervisors from the Law Enforcement Bureau looked around blankly, looking suspicious.
"Strange, where are the people?"
"Damn, the pipes are leaking like this, why don't you come and fix them quickly?"
"If the blame comes from above, who can bear the responsibility?"
Damon and Rose looked at each other, took out the inquisitor's ID, and asked forward.
The supervisors were confused, but they did not dare to offend the two senior judges.
Then he explained everything exactly.
"A team of supervisors came here and disappeared inexplicably?"
Damon was stunned: "There must be a secret passage here."
Qiangwei looked around: "I think it's a big transformation into a living person, right?"
Lu Buer said helplessly: "Did you really pass the interrogator's examination?"
This kind of trick is so common. He looked around for a moment and vaguely understood something.
"Have you ever heard of the urban legends in Southeast Asia five hundred years ago?"
Lu Fuji suddenly squatted down and touched the ground: "It is said that a newlywed couple came to Southeast Asia for a trip. The wife suddenly disappeared while trying on clothes in the dressing room. The husband searched to no avail, but several years later he found himself in a dressing room. I saw the wife in the bottle in the curiosity shop... So how did her wife disappear? Obviously, there is a secret passage in the fitting room."
Qiangwei and Damon looked over and seemed to understand something.
Lu Fuji suddenly touched something.
Click!
A large area of the ground suddenly collapsed.
Qiangwei screamed and fell down accidentally.
Lu Fuji grabbed her wrist: "My good daughter, you were a little careless."
Qiangwei glared at him: "I think you are looking for death!"
"In the underground block, there is actually a level further down?"
Damon immediately came up and found that this was a very simple mechanism.
Two huge planks of wood replaced the ground.
There was just a piece of ground stuck to the wooden board, and the dust was all stuck with glue.
A very simple deception, but very useful in underground neighborhoods.
Because this is a no-care zone, no one usually notices it.
If you accidentally step on the board, you will fall straight down.
There is actually a ladder on the far right side of this underground passage.
Just on the ladder, there was a letter hanging.
Lu Fuji took off the letter and opened it to take a look.
Longque’s personal message:
My respected Grand Advocate, a saint who once pursued the name of the Holy Monarch, congratulations on discovering the first Easter egg I left for you. It can be seen that you are very concerned about our existence and also want to know the past events in the Holy Mountain. You have felt guilty and painful for this for so many years, and it is time to get rid of it. Please allow me to challenge you.
The stakes of the challenge are the survival and death of this city, as well as our life and death.
——The chief priest of Corpse Food Sect, Annan.
Everyone fell into silence.
Especially when Lu Fuji read the letter.
The voice of Longque sounded in the earphones.
"The tiger fell flat and was bullied by the dog. Now anyone dares to challenge me."
He paused: "Go down and take a look."
