I am your natural enemy

Everything has its pros and cons.

Whenever Wen Yan thinks of the past, he is the only one who remembers it now. Some things he doesn't even remember are completely lost in the years. He actually feels very sorry that no one of his old friends from his youth may still remember him.

But similarly, other people have no way of knowing Wen Yan's past. No matter how they check, Wen Yan seems to have popped out of a crack in a stone and suddenly appeared.

Even if what was erased were traces of Wen Yan as an ordinary person, who else dares to confirm that it was this?

All they saw was the unknown.

The unknown is the great terror, and the unknown is endless speculation.

Just like at this moment, the old ghost was torn to pieces and disappeared, and the proprietress squatting in the corner only felt great terror.

Even though Wen Yan basically didn't do it himself throughout the whole process, everything that appeared at this moment came from outside the intelligence.

In their group, the most talked about thing in the past two months was about Wen Yan.

She naturally read a lot of relevant information, and there was some intelligence. As soon as she heard it, she knew that the source of the intelligence was very secretive.

But no one has ever said that if Wen Yan was not seduced, he would be beaten up without him taking action.

She felt it clearly just now. If she hadn't run away to buy time, if Wen Yan hadn't known that there was something fishy but turned back because he wanted to turn back...

If she wanted to harm Wen Yan and make him sink, then she would probably be dragged into a place with countless women, and she would literally be drowned by a mouthful of spit from each woman.

In that instant, she was only beaten up by a bunch of big cunts. It was just too short, and the people behind her hadn't lined up yet.

She hadn't heard from the intelligence that Wen Yan had shoulder fire. That power was obviously not from a warrior, and it didn't seem to come from a Taoist priest. The breath was obscure, wild and desolate, and had a strange domineering taste.

She hadn't heard of any powerful people in the local area.

That old lady, with a smell of incense, was not a ghost at all, but more like the legendary earth god.

If the demons and ghosts in the water are worshipped, they can be transformed into water gods after a long time. These are wild gods that have not been conferred. After all, they have some magical powers. If they don't cause trouble, no one will pay attention to them.

If the demons and ghosts on land are worshipped, they actually have the hope of becoming earth gods.

But for a long time, whether it is the dynasty or the mountain gate, if they can't deal with the things in the water, can they deal with the things on land?

Such unconferred small earth gods are generally not called earth gods, but evil sacrifices or wild sacrifices.

Generally, they only appear frequently at the end of the dynasty. In the heyday, it's okay if they don't show up and cause trouble. If they do, they will inevitably destroy the mountains and temples.

These guys are the ones who are beaten the most by these four words.

A family in the Three Mountains and Five Peaks, when they started, they actually did this.

Over time, the general term "earth god" is no longer a general term, but specifically refers to the earth gods who have been conferred.

If we relax a little, it probably only includes local people like the old lady just now, who have not gone through the formal enthronement procedure, but have done a lot of good deeds during their lifetime, have vows, and carry auspicious aura.

If such people are recognized by the locals after their death and have long-term offerings, they are actually considered earth gods.

In all dynasties, whether it is the court or the mountain gate, they will not make things difficult for them.

Just like Jiang Yanyan in Xijiang, if there is a suitable opportunity, it is not too difficult to give him an enthronement and a talisman.

If you run to someone's territory and do something evil, you will be beaten up by them. The Lieyang tribe probably has to give him a commendation first.

The proprietress squatted in the corner honestly. She didn't dare to pick up the torn painted skin. She didn't want to die here.

Wen Yan checked the things around her, took pictures of what should be taken, and collected what should be collected.

There are still many things left over from this strange ceremony. Some things can only be photographed, and the black box cannot identify what they are. They have to be sent back for inspection.

If it is an ordinary thing, it may be a bit troublesome, but if it is a rare thing, then you can trace its origin.

After taking the photos, Wen Yan took out some sealed bags from his bag, handed them to the gray cloth, and pointed to the messy things on the ground.

"Collect them and pack each one separately."

The gray cloth floated out and floated in the air, with two hands at both ends, doing things methodically.

Wen Yan came to the side of the proprietress and pointed at the painted skin.

"Put it away. I see you usually value this thing very much."

The proprietress thanked him and quickly put the painted skin away and held it in her arms.

She didn't dare to wear the painted skin, so she kept the appearance of a skeleton. She was afraid that if she wore the painted skin, she would be beaten again.

That strange power was obviously triggered passively, and it would be in vain if she was beaten at that time.

"Tell me, why did you run here? How did you know that guy?" Wen Yan sat on the stone opposite, waiting for the follow-up professionals from the Lieyang Department to come here to clean up.

The proprietress looked at Wen Yan, hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and came up to give a bombshell.

"The old ghost may not be dead."

But after she said this, when she looked at Wen Yan with her black skull eye sockets, she saw that Wen Yan's face was normal, and he didn't seem surprised at all.

"Aren't you surprised?"

"No surprise, he didn't resist in the end, he was afraid of dying in my hands, as long as he died in my hands, I would definitely find something unusual."

Wen Yan has seen too many ghosts.

It is no exaggeration to say that there are more ghosts in the world than him. I dare not say that there are absolutely no people who can compare with him. I guess you can count them on your fingers.

From the Nanyang Alliance, to the underworld, and then to Guanzhong County, he has seen too many ghosts.

He has also seen all kinds of ghosts before they disappear.

Either the obsession is dissolved, and the eyes are full of relief.

Or the obsession has not been dissolved, and the things to be done have not been completed, and the eyes are full of reluctance and attachment.

And that old ghost, when he was dying, was scolded by Wen Yan, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes, as if he was thinking about why.

Either this guy's obsession is to think clearly and figure out why when he is scolded.

Or this guy's obsession has not been turned up at all.

Wen Yan doesn't believe that there can be ghosts who die before their obsessions are fulfilled, and can ignore their own obsessions when they are dying.

If the foundation of existence can be ignored, what else can be said? This is 100% fishy.

Wen Yan saw from the moment that the boss lady and the old ghost seemed to be different people. The old ghost had some other ideas, and the boss lady also had some other ideas.

"Go on, say something valuable, otherwise, when the people from the Lieyang Department come, you can tell them."

Wen Yan was too lazy to argue with this guy, he said whatever he wanted.

When the boss lady saw Wen Yan's posture, she recalled her previous understanding of Wen Yan. Unless he resisted stubbornly, Wen Yan would rarely kill him. She gritted her teeth and said.

"It took me a lot of effort to get into their group.

Since seven or eight years ago, the people I know in the White Bone Village have always disappeared inexplicably.

It has been almost stable at the level of one a year. My guide also disappeared inexplicably last year.

Then by chance, I was pulled into that group.

After spying on the screen for a while, I knew that the other White Bone Villagers were inseparable from the people here.

I don't believe it can be so coincidental. Someone must have deliberately arranged for me to join the group.

I just want to know where the other White Bone Villagers have gone.

This time, the old ghost suddenly broke into my house and said that if you kill the black and white evil spirits that were attracted, two professions that need to be inherited at the same time will appear in the world.

Both can only be inherited by Yin objects, one without a body, and the other with a body, and they inherit one each.

According to what the old ghost said, and my own speculation, one of the professions can just make up for the defects of my painted skin."

Speaking of this, the proprietress paused slightly and continued.

"I really want this thing...

At the same time, this is the first time that someone in the group has invited me to go out and do something more important.

If I want to know what I want to know, I can't refuse this time.

I have summed up my experience. The people who the group owner invites to do something offline must be people who can be fully trusted.

For example, the old ghost.

The old ghost should have died once last year.

For a period of time, he didn't show up for more than a month.

The day he disappeared happened to be the day when the various branches of the Lieyang Department worked together to hunt down the Ghost God of Wealth.

This time he came to see me, although his appearance and breath didn't change much.

I tried it, and his strength seemed to be even lower than before.

But I can be sure that he is not the old ghost I saw last time.

It's not quite accurate to say this. It should be that his consciousness is still him, but that body is not him.

It's like changing his body, or wearing a painted skin.

I am most sensitive to this point. I can feel it, and I can't be wrong."

Wen Yan listened to the words of the proprietress with a calm expression. He didn't care whether she was whitewashing herself or not. As long as the news was true, it would be fine.

"Anything else?"

"Yes, Lao Gui, the group leader, and a few other people, all pay attention to you, especially this Lao Gui, who is like your sister. He knows all the news about you."

"..."

The sister has come, Wen Yan is a little speechless.

Hearing this, he roughly understands that this Lao Gui is probably closely related to some key figures in the Lieyang Department or one of the Three Mountains and Five Peaks.

Otherwise, it is unlikely that he knows him so well.

"Come on, tell me, what did you say, when did he start paying attention to me?"

"It was probably in September last year, I can't remember the exact day, he said that the contemporary Lieyang was born."

Wen Yan recalled that it was almost as soon as the fact that he was the contemporary Lieyang was exposed, the other party already knew it.

Dare to say it in the group, which means that this guy thinks this news is no longer confidential.

It's just a matter of hitting him, and by the way, it makes him hate him.

Just as he was talking, Black Box sent a message saying that the head of the headquarters sent him a message.

"Ask her if she is willing to be your informant.

If she is willing, there is no need to send her to the detention center.

Give her an electronic anklet and restrict her from leaving the house within 200 meters."

"No? Director, is this okay? This guy is involved in the things here, and he is still a member of that group, this..." Wen Yan quickly typed and replied.

"According to the rules, she is at most participating in an illegal ceremony, and no one else is involved, no one is injured, and there is no resistance. She will be imprisoned for a few years at most.

Given her previous reputation, she can be an informant and let her go back to open a shop.

The police's precise crackdown on prostitution is often based on information provided by those old prostitutes as informants.

It is normal to use informants for minor crimes when handling cases.

Especially when it comes to major cases, as long as they can provide important clues, they will be rewarded for their meritorious service.

They can be granted tax exemption.

You can do this now, but at least now, the Lieyang Department will not admit it. ”

“Director, you are asking me to be a bad guy here.”

“You are asking you to do favors. Without favors, only interests and deterrence, how can the informants give you information honestly? I have already told you clearly on the phone just now that you are fully responsible for handling it. "

Wen Yan wanted to say something, but a hang-up sign appeared on his phone. The black box indicated that the director had hung up the black box phone.

Wen Yan was stunned. The director explained it to him clearly. He then understood what "full authority" meant. It meant that as long as it was within the rules, he could do whatever he wanted.

Putting away the phone and looking at the skeleton still squatting in the corner, Wen Yan figured it out.

What the director said on the phone was a little different from what he asked the black box to convey. The words he asked the black box to convey were obviously more straightforward and were a hint to him.

It seems that there have been a lot of things happening recently, and the director does not trust the confidential call line of the Lieyang Department too much.

Or maybe, this is actually a test. Part.

Wen Yan had never been so clear about these things before. There would be no detailed information or tutorials left. How to grasp this degree is something that only those who have been in the industry for a long time can understand after they have figured out the rules and routines, and figured out what ambiguity is. They can make full use of the rules and then understand.

When writing a report, you don’t have to write these things clearly. As long as the witnesses, physical evidence, technical reports, etc. are clear after catching the person, it will be fine.

Wen Yan used to find an informant who was a ghost who had not committed any crime. Who would have thought that this white-bone villager could develop like this, and it was still within the permitted range.

Wen Yan thought of the old ghost just now, and he had an idea in his mind.

"Be my informant, do you want to do it?"

"Ah?" The proprietress was startled, and immediately nodded: "Yes!"

"Don't you ask where and how to do it?"

"No need to ask, to be an informant, at least you have to be alive to do it."

"You are sober. "Wen Yan hesitated for a moment and said.

"Originally, I was going to send you to the detention center, but if you can make meritorious service.

Then I can put electronic handcuffs on you and let you go back.

Except that you can't leave the 200-meter radius of your home, nothing else will be affected.

You run a store and come into contact with so many people and different species. You should know how to make meritorious service. "

"I understand this. "

"That's good. Tell me. "

Of course the lady boss knows that only those who have nothing to do with her are called meritorious service, and those who have something to do with her are called confession.

Using others to gain meritorious service is also a technical job, and you have to make sure that the other party has nothing to do with you.

Otherwise, if you, as a big brother, report the younger brother for murder and arson, then this matter is also related to you. It is not impossible that the original five-year sentence can be increased to life imprisonment with your own efforts.

As a homestay owner who has received aliens and even field staff from the Lieyang Department, she certainly knows some things, and it is always okay to give some clues.

There is also no problem finding clues about things that have been seen in that group.

Of course she knows what news Wen Yan wants, so she cannot be suspected by the people in that group.

At the same time, she must ensure that her reputation will not be damaged, and her store will continue to receive news in the future.

It cannot be known to others, so there is no need to worry about retaliation.

After a little screening, the options that can be used for her meritorious service began to shrink sharply.

"Before the New Year, a group of local masters came out of the mountains and passed by my store.

The yin energy on them obviously meant they had just been to a tomb and encountered zombies.

One of them had blood on his body, so he must have just killed someone.

At that time, there was a ghost sitting in their second car, who must have been brought out by them, but they didn't know.

In the first car, there was a blessed amulet. If I hadn't worn a painted skin, I wouldn't have dared to get close.

They just replenished some food on the roadside and left in a hurry.

I have a surveillance camera installed on the roadside, and I saved it.

I just don't know if they were killed by the ghost who followed them out after nearly 20 days. "

"And there was something I just heard a few days ago..."

The boss lady gave seven or eight clues in one breath, and each clue corresponded to a case.

Wen Yan asked the black box to record it. The black box could immediately compare three cases, which were filed, and the rest were not filed.

"You have a lot of information."

"To open a store, you must have a good reputation. If you can continue to do it, you can't sell your own customers.

If this incident hadn't happened, I would have preferred to stay out of it and pretended not to know.

But now that something has happened, these guys are not my clients, so I can only give the clues I know. "

Wen Yan didn't say much, and he didn't mean to blame the boss lady.

Don't be nosy, in fact, it's the way of survival for the aliens.

Otherwise, the result of blindly interfering is that you will offend people from both sides, and sometimes you will offend both sides.

Wen Yan looked at it and thought that these were almost enough. He would find a reason to give out the clues directly and let others solve the case and make meritorious deeds.

"Does this count as meritorious deeds?" The boss lady asked carefully.

"If the case can be solved based on your clues, it will count as meritorious deeds. "

Wen Yan looked at the time, took out his phone, and asked Black Box to compare the Dao talismans he had taken before. The comparison yielded no results. All the similar ones were obviously not the same.

After waiting for a while, when it was almost dawn, Wen Yan asked Black Box to send the photos to Fourth Master Uncle. Fourth Master Uncle should have gotten up at this time.

Less than three minutes after the photos were sent, Fourth Master Uncle called.

"Fourth Master Uncle, did I disturb you?"

"No, I've gotten up and prepared for morning classes. This thing..."

Wen Yan immediately spoke up and interrupted Fourth Master Uncle.

"Fourth Master Uncle, please help me take a look, and then just reply to the message just now, just speak directly."

"Okay."

A moment later, Black Box sent back a message.

"This talisman, judging from its head, heart, and feet, seems to have been created by the Wuyin Sect, which had destroyed the Five Yin Sect in the past. Several decades ago, when the spiritual energy was just beginning to revive, this sect was the one that suffered the most destruction of mountains and temples."

"The Lieyang Tribe?"

"The Lieyang Tribe and Taiyi Temple each sent some people, and also transferred some people from the artillery camp."
