Plane: Apostle of the Secret Realm

Chapter 241 Probing
The dead man's ditch incident had a great impact. After all, a popular anchor was killed by a ghost during a live broadcast. From a living person, he became a zombie within a few seconds.

Although such things have been gradually accepted by everyone since the appearance of the apostle of the secret realm, but not everyone can accept the shock of watching a person being killed and turned into a mummy.

For a while, this incident began to spread wildly on the Internet, especially the last few seconds of the video, from the tombstone of the tomb shaking, until the anchor was afraid to run away, was finally attacked by a ghost, and finally turned into a mummified corpse.

In just a few seconds, the number of downloads and transmissions has exceeded 600 million, and as time goes by, it is still spreading on the Internet at an even more alarming speed.

However, the housekeeper took action quickly and imposed restrictions on the Internet. However, this matter spread in Songtao City, and some people even directly reported it to the police.

The police just took a brief look at it, and then transferred the case to the City Guards Office. This kind of case is a supernatural event, and the ordinary police have no right or ability to investigate.

In the end, this matter was assigned to He Bing's sixth combat team. After all, there was Xu Feng, a "Taoist" professional in this team, who was the nemesis of undead ghosts.

Xu Feng's performance against the ghost puppet master before was very good, a talisman suppressed the ghost puppet master's natal zombie, otherwise, their team might have been wiped out.

The Dead Man’s Valley is more than ten kilometers away from the nearest village in Songtao City. Originally, there was a small village nearby, with about dozens of people. I don’t know when, this village was deserted. The old people died, and the young people didn’t want to. Living in such a distant village, one after another ran to live in the city. After a while, this small village disappeared completely.

On this day, a few more people appeared in this small village that had long been deserted.He Bing and his party of five slowly moved towards this small village.

"Captain, I heard from the old man that Xiaowang Village is haunted. I don't know if it's true!" A young man looked around nervously and said in a low voice.

This man is Wei Jian, a new intern assigned to the City Guards Department, a first-level apostle, and a C-level initial professional archer. The weapon he uses is a compound crossbow produced by modern industry.

This crossbow is much slower to reload than a normal bow, but it has a longer range, more damage, and is equipped with a scope for greater accuracy.

Because Wang Jun was killed in rebellion, the manpower of He Bing's team became more and more insufficient. Counting Xu Feng, there were only four people left, and Qian Li was still in the hospital for observation. After being discharged from the hospital, he had to rest for at least a week before he could work normally. Two more people were assigned.

One of them is the C-level professional archer Wei Jian, and the other is a girl named Qiao Yushan, a first-level apostle who has a relatively rare B-level occupation, tree shepherd.

Tree shepherds are a branch of the druid profession. They have the ability to listen to the hearts of plants, and can even turn some plants into powerful warriors for them to drive. The forest is their home field. For those who live there, it is also a place with favorable geographical location.

"There's no one here, and it's almost turning into a ghost village. What the hell is going on?" Zhang Chao looked around, then turned to He Bing and asked, "Captain, aren't we going to the dead man's ditch? How did we get to Xiaowang Village? coming."

"Do you know who are buried in the ditch of the dead?" He Bing asked Zhang Chao with a glance.

"Didn't you mean the mass grave where the devils slaughtered?" Zhang Chao gritted his teeth.Speaking of this, a flame will ignite in the heart of any Chinese.

"Where did the anchor go so deep? He just reached the edge of the dead man's ditch!" He Bing shook his head and said, "The people buried in those graves are all from Xiaowang Village.... Devils are so kind, and even killing people Build a grave for you?"

Zhang Chao stopped talking, and a group of people quickly entered the village. He Bing waved his hand and divided them into three groups. Zhang Chao and Wei Jian were in a group, Xu Feng and Qiao Yushan were in a group. He was a group by himself, and began to search. Get up the whole village to see if you can find any clues.

"Senior, senior, do you think there will be ghosts here?" Qiao Yushan looked around at the houses that were almost in ruins, with a nervous look on her face.

Although Qiao Yushan has just joined the City Guards Department, she is three or four years older than Xu Feng. Now Xu Feng is only a freshman, while Qiao Yushan is already a senior.

At this time, Qiao Yushan didn't have the aura of a senior senior sister at all, but like a little girl, she couldn't help but took two steps closer to Xu Feng.

"Don't be afraid, this village has been abandoned for more than ten years, even if there are ghosts, they would have starved to death long ago!" Xu Feng joked.

Although she knew that Xu Feng was joking, Qiao Yushan felt even more frightened when she looked at the quiet abandoned village around her.

At this moment, two green will-o'-the-wisps suddenly floated out from a yard in the distance. Qiao Yushan's face paled with fright, and she yelled loudly.

After a while, other people ran towards this side one after another.

Seeing that Qiao Yushan and Xu Feng were fine, He Bing relaxed and asked, "What happened?"

"Yes, there are ghosts!" Qiao Yushan screamed, pointing at the two will-o'-the-wisps parked in the middle of the road ahead.

"Captain, there seems to be something wrong!" Xu Feng said in a low voice, frowning slightly.

"It's just two will-o'-the-wisps, and they're not ghosts!" Wei Jian put down the crossbow in his hand, and said to Qiao Yushan angrily, "What a fuss, didn't you learn physics in junior high school? It's just the spontaneous combustion of phosphorus..."

"Why does phosphorus spontaneously ignite?" Xu Feng asked suddenly.

"Because there are exposed bones that have been exposed to the sun..."

At this time, Wei Jian seemed to have noticed something, and instead of talking, he looked towards the small courtyard beside him.

A few people walked towards the small courtyard, perhaps because of the air flow between them, two clusters of will-o'-the-wisps floated towards them, Qiao Yushan's face paled in fright, and He Bing waved the two clusters of will-o'-the-wisps away.

Pushing open the courtyard door, He Bing's face changed suddenly. Xu Feng looked into the courtyard, and saw that in the empty courtyard, there was a three-meter-high altar built with white bones.

Among these white bones, there are bones of cattle, sheep and other livestock, but more of them are human bones. He Bing glanced at it and found that at least a dozen human bones are needed to form this altar.

"Zhang Chao, Xu Feng, check the surroundings and see if there is anything unusual!" He Bing said with a serious face: "Wei Jian, take a picture, check to see if there is anything around the altar, Qiao Yushan, contact the headquarters, and put the bones on the altar report on the matter..."
