Li Yan didn't stay in the city for too long, but immediately took the rail car down the mountain. He had just watched the first scene of Dorothy's "Lake of the Giants", and the trouble started.
"There was an accident, you have to come."
That's what Zha Xiaodao said in the conversation.
On the shore of the rocky coast, Cha Xiaodao set up a bonfire with two half-raw grilled fish on it. Cha Xiaodao sat on the side, cut the internal organs of the fish with the knife, fed enough seasoning, and set it on the fire. one.
On the sparkling beach, bloody corpses lay crooked, more than half of which were soaked in sea water. If you didn't look carefully, you might think it was some discarded marine garbage. A wooden boat was dangling alone in the sea.
Silent blue flames streaked across the night sky, the Dodge Tomahawk in sprint mode rolled over the stone stall, and a drift stopped in front of the fire. Li Yan stuck the tactical spider on the motorcycle, glanced at the corpse in the sea, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zha Xiaodao calmly pulled out a grilled fish from the fire, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then inserted it back in, then took out an iron wine cup, and sprinkled it forward!
I saw the flames soaring, the tight fish skin cracked, and the trembling snow-white fish flesh gushed out all at once, and the tempting aroma overflowed.
He handed one to Li Yan, took another one himself, and then said calmly:
"My astrology is already at 40% level. Panning for gold here is twice the result with half the effort. But I can't dig out so much gold. Originally, today my wealth palace is in the quail fire. I should have a windfall in the southeast, but unfortunately my level is not good." When I got home, I didn¡¯t expect it to be a fortune.¡±
"Okay, it's kind of like a magic stick."
As soon as Li Yan finished speaking, the tide of the sea receded, revealing the whole body of these corpses. Surprisingly, most of these corpses were men, with tattered clothes, dark green skin, and scales on their ears and necks. In addition, there are a large number of damaged steam weapons scattered around the corpse.
Li Yan withdrew his gaze and continued to listen to Zha Xiaodao.
"There are two groups of people, one with gold and one with goods. I arrived before them, and when they found me, they shot without saying a word. When they realized something was wrong halfway, they transformed one by one. Nuo, That's the way it is. They chased me down and beat me, and I killed them all, and I tried to catch my tongue, and I killed myself."
After a pause, Zha Xiaodao continued: "When they just died, they were bigger than they are now, their clothes were torn, they had fish heads on their heads, and they had big bloody mouths. After dying for a while, they have changed a lot. I reckon there will be nothing special about these corpses by daylight."
"What about gold and goods?"
Zha Xiaodao flipped through his hands and took out a box the size of a human head.
A chest containing lumps of gold, about five hundred ounces.
"The cargo is on board. I'll show you what it looks like."
Zha Xiaodao moved his buttocks, and it turned out that he had been sitting on a leather box.
Open the suitcase, there is a whole piece of kraft paper inside, with the marks of anchors and iron hooks drawn on it, and a kraft paper bag is torn open, and there is a black hard block inside.
"Opium?"
Cha Xiaodao nodded.
Li Yan tore off the piece of paper with the anchor and iron hook printed on it, rushed to check the knife and said, "I will find a way to investigate the origin of this group of people, maybe the clue of the scary mermaid fell on it."
"I paid for this gold, how could I have completed half of the task?"
"It's hard to say. Dollars are quite valuable these days. If you buy such a box, you probably won't be able to sell it for a hundred thousand dollars."
On this point, Yan Fu's requirements are not strict, as long as it is gold, after the ownership is determined, anyone who comes will not be rejected.
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
Zhen Lian stared at the torn kraft paper in his hand with an uncertain expression.
"Do you know me?"
"It should be the symbol of the Deep Sea Church."
"how to say?"
"This is also one of the pagans who are entrenched near San Francisco, but unlike the red light and the Taiping Song Club, the territory of the Deep Sea Church is not in the Chinese district."
Li Yan took the kraft paper back, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't you mention this church when I mentioned the Scary Mermaid?"
Zhen Lian fell to his knees: "First, sir, before you asked me to mobilize the congregation to look for clues, I had raised questions about heretics, including the Church of the Deep Sea, and you didn't show much interest."
Because of the cruel lingering power of the great Yog, Zhen Lian showed great respect and fear for the so-called "God".
Various PaganismsAmong them, there are extremely intricate contradictions, but without exception, the gods they serve have no interest in the contradictions of mortals.
Even when the great Yog was around, Zhen Lian didn't dare to drive away the wolf, and used Yog to launch a war against other heretics, at most, he would ignore some rumors, for example, your container was snatched away by the "Taiping Song Club" some type of.
And Li Yan is the only "outer god" that Zhen Lian has seen with both humanity and divine power. She is very afraid of some of her small actions, which are regarded as tricks and used by Li Yan. eventually lead to irreparable consequences.
Although the "Scary Mermaid" and the "Deep Sea Church" sounded like they had a lot to do with each other, she pretended not to know.
But having said that, Zhen Lian did have a bit of selfishness in it, and hastily provoked the "Deep Sea Church" whose believers were poor white people. She didn't want to see a series of chain reactions.
In fact, Zhen Lianxin hoped that Li Yan would set his sights on the "Taiping Song Festival" and "Seagull Cross Flag" these "competitors" who were also recruiting believers in the Chinese district.
Li Yan blinked, and said, "Come and talk to me about the Church of the Deep Sea, and the other heretics you mentioned. I'm starting to be interested in them."
Li Yan said.
Zhen Lian had a look of mixed joy and sorrow on her face, but she still said respectfully: "I will know everything and say everything."
So, Zhen Lian faithfully told Li Yan about the intricate heresy beliefs of San Francisco.
After about an hour, Li Yan probably understood the origin of these heretics.
It's nothing more than a bunch of rabble.
The so-called "Red Lantern Festival" and "Taiping Song Festival" are often organized by people with good deeds after reading some incomplete secret books and rumors, and the gods they believe in are mostly cruel and selfish. Give strength to believers.
Zhen Lian is one of the representatives. She was originally a prostitute, but because of poverty, she acted as a witch. Relying on an incomplete book of Taiyin secrets, she confusedly summoned a one-eyed spirit who called herself "Great Yog".
She was able to fool Hesheng's faucet not by any divine power, but by using aphrodisiac aromatherapy and herbs to give Liang Hui the illusion of returning to youth. And that "Great Yog", apart from asking Zhen Lian and the others to find the so-called "container" every day, did not give Zhen Lian any substantial benefits.
But Zhen Lian is still happy, she can deal with the gods and believers, relying on rhetoric to gain power that was unimaginable in the past.
Those monsters with terrifying shapes and strange powers are the best amulets for her to maintain her power.
From the very beginning, the gods of pagans did not say that they sheltered believers. They were just horrible monsters that were incompatible with the steam age and were on the verge of extinction.
This point, Zhen Lian is clear, and Liang Hui may not be unaware, but what is worth pondering is that they still desire, or have already sucked the nutrients they desire from these monsters. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
