Chapter 17
You must know that when the agents of the State Secretariat are performing tasks, any department is obliged to do their best to cooperate.

This also makes these agents have never been as embarrassed as they are today.

They didn't understand the meaning of this at all, so they could only helplessly scoop out the moist soil from under the roots of the locust tree bit by bit.

Soon these agents came back with a handful of soil each. After only ten minutes of absence, the splendor of the previous time was no longer visible on these agents.

Everyone was ashamed, with wet dirt sticking to their hands.

What's more important is that the soil always exudes a vague and strange smell, as if something has been sealed away from the light and rotted for a long time.

Seeing his men become like this, Ye Zhiqiang felt a little dissatisfied.

"Mr. Zhao, what exactly do you want to do?"

Zhao Qi did not answer immediately, but walked forward and carefully inspected the soil brought back by everyone, and then nodded:

"Smear these all over your face, and all exposed skin."

"what?"

Every decision Zhao Qi made was beyond everyone's expectations. The wet soil had that strange smell, which made the agents feel very uncomfortable, let alone smearing these black things on their faces now. up.

For these agents, it's not that they can't do it, but that they don't know what it means to do so.

As if seeing everyone's hesitation, Zhao Qi said a few more words:
"I suspect that the spirit that caused the disappearance of the scientific research team is a fox demon. It is only the early stage of the recovery of Yin Qi, so the Yin Qi is not enough to balance the two dimensions of Yin and Yang.

We can't find the fox demon with our naked eyes. The place where the fox demon lives may be right next to us, but we can't detect it.

And this locust tree is the ghost in the wood, the soil that breeds the locust tree is also called yin soil.

The fox demon is the product of yin energy, while we humans are the roots of pure yang. Yin and yang are in conflict with each other, so it is difficult for us to find the fox demon unless it shows up intentionally.

Therefore, applying these yin soils to the exposed skin can suppress the dispersion of yang energy.

Allowing us to blend in without being detected.

In the words of folklore, this is called psychic, in terms that can be understood by science, it can be identified as a 'parallel world'.

The balance of the two dimensions can allow us to integrate into the dimension that does not belong to us. Am I clear enough? "

Zhao Qi's patient explanation did not make all the agents suddenly enlightened, but made them even more confused.

However, Ye Zhiqiang could only suppress his dissatisfaction after seeing that Zhao Qi had already started to smear Yin soil on his skin, and nodded in acquiescence.

In desperation, the agents could only obey orders.

They all began to follow Zhao Qi's example and smeared Yin soil on their faces. The sticky and wet touch inevitably made people feel uncomfortable psychologically.

Oddly enough, though, these soils do seem to be a little bit shady than the others.

Apply to skin as if applying a layer of ice water.

When several agents began to smear the soil on their bare necks, they could even feel gusts of wind continuously burrowing into their bodies from the back of their necks, so that they quickly shivered.

Under the leadership of Zhao Qi, the agents soon became the same.

The face was covered with overcast soil, so black that only the facial features could be vaguely distinguished.

Every time I breathed in, I could smell the strange smell from the shady earth, which almost made everyone frown.

The officers and soldiers who blocked the scene not far away saw this scene in their eyes, with doubts written on their faces, even Zhang Zhenshan was the same.

Zhang Zhenshan did not participate in this investigation, but only assisted in closing the mountain or preparing for the search.

So he doesn't need to smear his body with strange-smelling mud like the agents.

But it could be seen from his interested expression that he was quite curious about this scene, especially about Zhao Qi. Zhang Zhenshan always found this person somewhat intriguing.

Now that everyone had applied the shade, Zhao Qi waved his hand again, and led everyone towards the forest.

The rain hit them, but it couldn't neutralize the soil at all, as if the soil itself was extremely sticky.

The agents stood behind Zhao Qi in a daze, looking around while walking towards the forest.

However, even though everyone was fully vigilant, they still unknowingly noticed that there was a white mist around them.

The white mist came out of nowhere, as if it appeared in an instant and then quickly enveloped the surroundings.

Ye Zhiqiang looked at Zhao Qi who was walking in front without looking back, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.

This was a premonition gained from many actions. This white mist made Ye Zhiqiang feel a little uneasy, always feeling like something was going to happen.

But what Ye Zhiqiang and others didn't know was that in the eyes of Zhang Zhenshan and others stationed at the scene, there was no white mist.

What they saw was that Ye Zhiqiang and others followed Zhao Qi towards the depths of the forest and gradually disappeared out of sight.

I don't know when the forest suddenly became quiet, and even the chirping of birds that had been resounding in the forest disappeared without a trace.

The only thing that can be heard in this forest, apart from their own breathing, is the sound of rain hitting the leaves.

The white mist that filled the air was getting thicker and thicker. It was raining on a sunny day, but this kind of weather was rarely encountered. When it rained, the forest would still be filled with white mist, which was even more unusual.

The limited vision caused everyone to slow down.

However, at this moment, an extremely sudden sound suddenly came from the forest and reached the ears of all the agents, leaving everyone stunned.

This is the sound of musical instruments, the high-pitched suona sound; the regular sound of gongs and drums, mixed and intertwined with each other, giving people a very lively and festive feeling.

The Keyi Mountain area has long been blocked, not to mention that even when it is not blocked, because it is close to the military restricted area, there are very few people coming and going.

How could there be a festive band in this environment?

Ye Zhiqiang raised the gun in his hand and looked around vigilantly. At the same time, Zhao Qi, who was walking in the front, finally stopped.

He quickly hid himself behind a tree, his vigorous figure and keen senses surprised a group of agents for a moment.

However, they reacted very quickly. Seeing this scene, they tacitly hid their figures nearby.

"Mr. Zhao, what's going on?"

Ye Zhiqiang lowered his voice and asked doubtfully, but Zhao Qi's expression looked a little excited.

"This is a good thing, it shows that we are in the right direction.

From now on, don't talk, if you vent your yang energy, you will be in trouble! "
