Restricted area grave keeper

Chapter 230 The Dean and the Gravekeeper
In the office, Lu Zhan sat on a chair and fell into deep thought.

The dean has a spell that is exactly the same as that in the cemetery of the cemetery, and this kind of talisman cannot be found on the market. It is probably unique to the cemetery, which shows that this talisman comes from the cemetery. There may be a connection between white and ink... There is no problem with this inference.

But the question is, how did the old guy get such a spell? Could it be that he had entered the cemetery of the gravekeeper?

But you must know that although the cemetery of the tombkeeper does not have a restricted area stone tablet, it is definitely more dangerous than the S-level restricted area. It is not that Dongyang City has not tried the idea of ​​​​the cemetery in the past six months, but all failed without exception. This is enough Explain the danger of the cemetery, some people even stay in the cemetery forever.

In Lu Zhan's impression, the old dean is just an ordinary genetic warrior, he was piled up entirely by genetic medicine, at most he was at the C-level level, how could he have the ability to enter the dangerous cemetery, and he could Get a spell out of it?
Unless, like Mo Qingcheng, he was brought to the cemetery by Bai Mo.

But Bai Mo only woke up half a year ago, so how could he have had a relationship with that old guy...

No, not right.

Suddenly, Lu Zhan thought of something that he had neglected for a long time.

On the day Bai Mo entered City No. [-] for the first time, he came to the police station, claiming that he was here to report the crime.

In the process, although Bai Mo's main appeal was to retrieve the lost body, he mentioned the name of a supermarket - Huimin Supermarket.

After a follow-up investigation, Lu Zhan discovered that there really was such a supermarket in City No. 200 many years ago, but it was only [-] years ago. At that time, the restricted area had not yet appeared, and City No. Existence, although the world is in turmoil, it is far more stable than it is now.

This was just a small episode. At the time, Lu Zhan didn't take it seriously. At most, it could only show that the tomb guards existed before the restricted area appeared. Maybe they were the first batch of superhumans, and they were later discovered for some reason. Falling into a deep sleep has since become a taboo sequence.

However, after a follow-up understanding, everyone gradually realized that there was actually an era that no one knew about a long time ago, and that Bai Mo and even the restricted area were most likely inherited from that era.

In other words, Bai Mo's deep sleep was not 200 years ago, but in a farther time——

And if you think about it this way, it means that Bai Mo's appearance half a year ago was definitely not his first awakening, he had awakened at least once 200 years ago, otherwise it would be impossible to know about Huimin Supermarket.

And after that, he fell into a deep sleep again for some reason until half a year ago.As for whether he has awakened again during these 200 years, it is still unknown.

but……

If Bai Mo really has any connection with the dean, it means that in the years after the restricted area appeared, Bai Mo once again woke up and invited the dean to enter the cemetery.Perhaps only in this way can the old guy get the spell in the cemetery.

If the old guy got the spell by breaking into the cemetery, there is a possibility, but the probability is almost zero.

Of course, there are other possibilities. After all, it is uncertain whether the spell is exclusive to the cemetery, and it may not really come from the cemetery.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhan suddenly realized another problem——

That is, if Bai Mo really woke up after appearing in the restricted area, why did the sequence room not reveal the information of the tomb keeper at that time, but the red envelope did not drop for the first time until half a year ago?
Is this an accident, or is there some special reason?
In a short moment, Lu Zhan had too much confusion in his mind, and he was eager to get an answer.

It's a pity that Bai Mo is no longer here.

And even if he was still there, most likely he would not answer his question, but would say "not enough" indifferently.

There seems to be a great self-contradiction in these humanoid off-limits creatures. On the one hand, they ignore human lives and regard them as dispensable ants. On the other hand, they seem to have certain expectations for human beings. The purpose is puzzling.

While Lu Zhan was thinking, Mo Qingcheng remained silent, as if giving him time to digest, and then sent him two photos and an address.

Hearing the notification tone, Lu Zhan withdrew his thoughts, quickly wrote down the address of the orphanage, and clicked on the photo.

The first photo is a close-up of a yellow talisman. He has never seen the spell patterns on it, but he doesn't know much about talismans, so he can ask someone who knows how to make sure.

But when he saw the second photo, he suddenly froze, his mind went blank.

What I saw in the photo was a black crystal with light gray lines. It looked ordinary, but Lu Zhan recognized it immediately——

The core, this is actually the core of a restricted area!

Although the cores of different restricted areas are different, they are generally the same. Lu Zhan believes in his own judgment, at least from the appearance and color, this is indeed the core of the restricted areas.

But... how is this possible?

In the Paradise of Equality, Wan Wan told everyone before he died that there is a way to prevent the expansion of the restricted area, and that is to find a black crystal and destroy it. weaken.

And Wan did not deceive them, this black crystal is real, after verification, the council named this crystal as the core of the restricted area.

It’s just that so far, the core of the restricted area discovered by humans is still quite limited, and they don’t know much about it. At most, many people have only heard of it, so it’s normal for Mo Qingcheng not to know this thing.

Lu Zhan took a deep breath and fell into thought again
The emergence of the core of the restricted area is problematic——

You must know that in the past, there have been examples of humans successfully clearing the restricted area and using it as a human residence. The Yellow Spring Organization is the most famous example.

There are not many such examples, but there are definitely many. However, even if the restricted area is turned upside down, no one has ever discovered the existence of the core of the restricted area before.

If I have to say it, this thing is more like a new concept that appeared with the expansion of the restricted area, like a brand new product after a major update of the game version, which does not exist at all...

Thinking of this, for some reason, Lu Zhan suddenly shuddered.

But at this moment, what puzzled him the most was that since no one had ever discovered the core of the forbidden zone before, it meant that it might not have existed at that time, so... how could the dean have a core of the forbidden zone in his hand?
Also, which restricted area does the core of this restricted area belong to, and why does the dean keep it? Does he know the function of the core?
These two things are not simple. He put the core of the restricted area and the talisman paper in the box, and left the box in the orphanage. Is this intentional or unintentional?Did he expect that someone would find an orphanage?

Lu Zhan quickly made up his mind, he wanted to confirm the authenticity of the core as soon as possible, and this matter could not pass through the hands of others.

He had a hunch that there might be a huge secret behind this incident.

"I'll send you the box. You should know more about these things than I do."

Suddenly, Mo Qingcheng's voice rang on the other end of the phone.

Although the safe zone has become chaotic with the emergence of the buffer zone, the express delivery industry still exists, mainly because there are enough benefits to be reaped.

The operation of express delivery is maintained by several large groups, including Xinhai Group. They have strong strength and have branches in many urban areas. It is said that they also have relevant taboo sequences, so it is not a problem to support the express delivery work.

The current delivery of goods is not so much a courier, but more like a dart in the past. It must be equipped with masters, especially in different urban areas. People and creatures in the restricted area need to be on guard, so the asking price is ridiculously high. In addition, there is a risk of losing the courier, so under normal circumstances, no one will choose to send the courier.

"No, no, tell me where you are, and I will pick it up in person."

Lu Zhan was very concerned about the contents of the box, how could he rest assured that it would pass through the hands of others, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to take a look at Mo Qingcheng.

Mo Qingcheng was silent for a moment, and seemed to have guessed the other party's answer, so she said: "Well, I will put the things in my current residence, hide the box in the cupboard, and put the key under the floor tiles at the door, come and get it All right."

She hesitated for a while, but couldn't help reminding, "It's a bit far from Dongyang City to here, there may be danger in the middle, you must pay attention to safety."

Lu Zhan sensed something was wrong from the conversation, and asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Yes, besides the box, I also found clues about the dean's whereabouts. I'm going to find him."

"What clue?"

"You also said before that if you knew where the dean was, you would kill him. I know you're not joking, so I can't tell you."

Lu Zhan frowned: "That guy's disappearance is not as simple as you think, and this matter is also! Don't act rashly, tell me everything you know!"

Mo Qingcheng sighed slightly: "To this day, do you still think that the dean wanted to kill us?"

"I didn't think it was, I saw it with my own eyes!" Lu Zhan said loudly, "And it's not just because of this reason that I stopped you, listen to me, calm down, and tell me what you know."

"I'm calm and I know what I'm doing."

After a pause, Mo Qingcheng's voice suddenly became low, "You didn't come to Xiaowen's funeral back then."

Lu Zhan was taken aback for a moment, this turning point was abrupt, but he understood what the other party meant.

Xiaowen was the corpse he saw in the coffin shop on Lambei Street half a year ago. It was his and Mo Qingcheng's younger brother, and he was also a member of the orphanage.

On the day of the funeral, Mo Qingcheng notified him, but he did not show up.

But in fact, Lu Zhan not only went to the funeral secretly, but also tracked down a series of issues such as why Xiaowen's body was trafficked, and dealt with the relevant people seriously.

And all of this, Mo Qingcheng doesn't care.

She said: "Lu Zhan, you and we are no longer a family, not even a group of people, I know you hate the past, and you hate the dean, so let go of everything in the past, live the life you like, and pursue the truth Leave it to me."

"Also...be careful."

After speaking, Mo Qingcheng hung up the phone, sighed, and walked slowly to the mirror.

In the mirror is a young girl with a pure and sweet appearance, tall and slender, with long hair draped over her shoulders, and a little sadness in her eyes.

Compared with half a year ago, Mo Qingcheng seems to have matured a lot now, she is no longer that ignorant girl, but her eyes are still bright and full of vigor.

After a while, she sat on the bed, tied her long hair up high, put on old and ugly makeup on her face in front of the mirror, put a pistol on each of her left and right waists, put on a large windbreaker as a cover, and then put on a mask and peaked cap.

Skillfully done, obviously repeated many times.

When everything was ready, she put a quaint box into the cupboard, placed the bowls randomly, and covered it up a little, then stood up and came to the living room.

There was a yellowed photo on the table in the living room. It was a group photo with adults and many children. One of them was an old man with gray hair, looking at the camera kindly, as if he was looking at Mo Qingcheng.

This is exactly the dean she misses so much.

Everyone in the photo had smiles on their faces, including the young Mo Qingcheng and Lu Zhan, who were standing in the front, posing in two silly poses.

It can be seen that everyone in the orphanage was very happy at that time, and did not know what would happen in the future.

The photo was found in the abandoned orphanage, and it was put together with the box. Mo Qingcheng looked at the photo for a long time, and then solemnly put it in the backpack.

She was about to go on a long trip, trying to find the dean and ask what happened that year.

Regarding this dean, all the children's memories stayed more than ten years ago, including Lu Zhan and Mo Qingcheng.

They only remembered that it was a bright spring day, when all the children in the orphanage boarded a passenger car, and the director was also in the car, and he would take the children for an outing.

The bus went out of the city along the wide road, and everyone was very excited, including the young Mo Qingcheng, but for some reason, she suddenly became very sleepy and lost consciousness not long after.

It was only later that she found out that during the driving of the bus, everyone fell asleep unknowingly.

It was already late at night when she woke up, and found that the bus was actually parked in the wilderness, a completely strange place.

What was frightening was that the dean and many children had disappeared, and Lu Zhan with red eyes was sitting in the driver's seat. He was the first to wake up, with fear and anger intertwined in his eyes.

He told everyone that it was the dean who killed the other children. He was planning to kill them, but he just woke up and saw him, so he ran away.

His tone was particularly angry. Although he kept emphasizing that he saw it with his own eyes, not many people believed his words, because there was not even a drop of blood on the car, and no one wanted to doubt the dean.

But there is one thing that can be confirmed, which also makes everyone feel very bad, that is, the dean has indeed disappeared——

He left everyone behind.

And this is the biggest difference between Lu Zhan and everyone else.One insisted that the dean had a conspiracy and was a murderer, and they must not go to him; others believed that the dean just left temporarily for something, and they could only go home if they found him.

Different choices were made from this, coupled with some other reasons, the differences between Lu Zhan and everyone became more and more serious, and they parted ways completely after a long time.

And they never found the dean.

Mo Qingcheng knew Lu Zhan well. She didn't think Lu Zhan was someone who lied recklessly, but deep in her heart she felt that the dean could not take action against them, and there was no reason to do so, so she was always very conflicted.

His intuition told him that what happened back then was not simple, and even Lu Zhan didn't tell the truth completely, and deliberately concealed something.

Over the years, she has been searching for news everywhere, just to find the dean urgently, so as to get the truth.

And now, she may be one step closer to the truth.

"I don't know if Bai Mo and the dean are really related. I wanted to invite him to dinner as a thank you, but unfortunately that guy can't be contacted..."

Mo Qingcheng took a deep breath, pushed open the door, put the key under the floor tiles at the door, covered it carefully, and then walked in a certain direction.
