Although Feng'er was struck by the Ghost Lord and sent flying, he wasn't seriously injured. He stood up and walked over to Ye Ling, gently exerting force with both palms, secretly using his full inner Qi, but still couldn't break through this invisible wall.
"Feng'er, what's going on?" Ye Ling looked at Feng'er and asked.
Feng'er shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either, I estimate a seal has been placed around us."
The three of them couldn't get out, so they had to sit there. At this mont, Zhang Wenhui's voice ca from below, and Feng'er was delighted. As long as Zhang Wenhui arrived, the three of them would be saved.
Outside Hongyuan Building, the chaotic scene showed so improvent, and at this ti, several leaders from the City Committee arrived at the scene.
Leading them was the recently appointed Mayor Gu, dressed in a black business suit, making him appear very energetic and heroic.
"What's really happening inside, why are so many people injured?" Mayor Gu looked at Old Hu standing beside him and asked.
Old Hu is now the Secretary of the Political and Law Committee of Jiangbei City, in charge of this area.
"Mayor Gu, I'm also not very clear on the specifics. Old Liang from the city bureau's criminal investigation team is over there, it's better to let him explain to you." Old Hu said.
Mayor Gu nodded slightly in agreent.
Old Hu quickly went over and brought the just-busy Liang Youfa, and said, "Old Liang, report the details to Mayor Gu."
Liang Youfa recounted the situation he understood, finally saying, "Captain Song and Captain Zhang have been inside for half a day, and just now a few ard police also went in, but they were thrown out within minutes and are now all unconscious."
"Captain Song, is it Song Xiaojia?" Mayor Gu asked Liang Youfa.
Liang Youfa quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Mayor Gu."
When Mayor Gu heard this, his expression changed slightly, glaring at Old Hu and said, "Secretary Hu, do you know Song Xiaojia is Secretary Song's daughter?"
Old Hu was stunned and nodded.
Mayor Gu saw that Old Hu knew this, his expression turned cold, and he said, "Secretary Hu, how could you let her go inside? If anything happens, how do we explain to Secretary Song?"
Old Hu was montarily surprised, thinking Mayor Gu was being unreasonable. Despite Song Xiaojia being Secretary Song's daughter, she is also a police officer.
Though he felt sowhat resentful inside, he didn't dare show any on his face, and said, "Mayor Gu, I have already arranged for the ard police."
Just as Mayor Gu was about to speak, a deafening roar suddenly ca from inside the building, startling her.
This strange roar was loud, obviously not made by ordinary things.
At this mont, Old Hu heard the sound and felt uneasy. If anything happened to Song Xiaojia, he really wouldn't be able to explain it to Secretary Song.
At this mont, Old Hu imdiately thought of soone, perhaps only he could solve the trouble here.
The person Old Hu thought of was none other than Lin Chuan.
When the incident happened at Hongyuan Building, curious onlookers had already used their phones to record videos outside and uploaded them online.
Right now, far away in East Sea County, Lin Chuan was dining with Feng Lingfeng in a hotel room.
The dinner was simple yet abundant, Feng Lingfeng, being a cultivator, said she was full after a few bites.
Lin Chuan was completely himself in front of Feng Lingfeng, wolfing down his al, then just as he was about to hug Feng Lingfeng and get intimate, his phone inconveniently rang.
Sowhat reluctantly, he picked up the phone, and after connecting, he heard Old Hu's voice, "Lin Chuan, is that you?"
Lin Chuan was taken aback, wasn't this Hu Ju's voice? He quickly said, "Hu Ju, why are you calling ?"
Old Hu said over the phone, "Lin Chuan, where are you now?"
Lin Chuan replied, "I'm in East Sea County."
Old Hu said over the phone, "Lin Chuan, sothing serious has happened at Hongyuan Building in Jiangbei City, Song Xiaojia has been inside for half a day, it's unclear what's going on there, can you co over as soon as possible?"
Lin Chuan was aware of Song Xiaojia's skills, and upon hearing she had been inside for half a day, he imdiately sensed sothing was wrong, and said over the phone, "Hu Ju, I'll head over right away."
After hanging up, Lin Chuan said to Feng Lingfeng, "There's trouble in Jiangbei City, we need to drive back there now."
...
The sky was dark, without a single star in sight; at the horizon, a bolt of lightning split the sky.
Amidst the flash of the lightning, several figures appeared in a desolate grassy field.
"Are you sure this is the place?" As another bolt of lightning struck, the speaker was a middle-aged man, tall and robust with eyes gleaming a cold killing intent.
In front of the middle-aged man was a young man of about twenty, not very tall, who said to him, "This is the place, absolutely."
"Let's do it." The middle-aged man's gaze drifted towards a short-statured man to his left and spoke solemnly.
The man said nothing, laying a large bag he carried onto the ground, taking out several sections of what looked like steel pipes, each about three to four centiters thick, then connected two of them together.
Once connected, the steel pipes were over a ter long. The man then quickly retrieved another steel pipe resembling a small shovel, and attached it to the connected pipes.
He inserted the assembled pipe straight into the ground and said to a person beside him, "Hit it with the hamr."
The sound of clinking began imdiately, resonating loudly in the pitch-black night.
Lightning flashed repeatedly on the horizon, seemingly foreshadowing the coming storm.
Before long, the steel pipe over a ter long was completely embedded into the ground, and the man grabbed two more sections of pipe and linked them together.
The middle-aged man watched from the side; his cold, icy eyes were intimidating.
An hour passed, and the pipe had descended underground nearly three to four ters. The man stopped, then laboriously pulled the embedded pipe from the ground.
After extracting the pipe, the young man opened a flashlight to inspect the dirt brought up by the pipe, turned, and said to the middle-aged man, "Judging by the soil color, it's correct."
The middle-aged man nodded darkly, saying nothing, but his gaze remained on the man holding the pipe.
The man also remained silent, took out a string of black balls, seven or eight in total, from the bag, and placed them into the small hole opened by the pipe.
After placing the string of black balls into the hole, the man pulled a fuse and asked another person to fill the hole with soil.
"Everyone, step back a bit." With everything done, the man instructed the others.
The rest moved back ten ters away, and the man took out a lighter, igniting the fuse.
The fuse sparked rapidly, then at that mont, thunder roared through the air.
As thunder sounded, a dull sound ca from the small hole.
Raindrops started to fall, lightning flashed, yet the group began digging at the site.
It seed providence favored them; the rain only drizzled a few drops before stopping.
By now, it was already past two in the morning, and the group followed the initial hole, digging down, soon reaching depths of four or five ters.
"Brother Hu, we've hit the burial chamber." Soone inside the hole shouted loudly.
"Lower your damn voice." The middle-aged man, called Brother Hu, cursed, then said, "Hurry up, grab what's inside, and let's retreat."
As Brother Hu finished speaking, countless flashlight beams suddenly illuminated the dark surroundings, accompanied by a commanding voice, "We are the police, don't move."
Hearing the police, the group beca flustered and began to flee.
But it was too late; about a dozen police officers swiftly surrounded all of them.
"Damn, let's fight them." Brother Hu picked up a shovel fiercely, urging the rest.
The others also picked up shovels, looking nervously at the encircling police.
The leading police officer, about thirty, fixed a stern gaze on them, and holding a gun aid at Brother Hu, coldly said, "Qin Hu, see if your shovel's faster, or my bullet."
Another dozen officers also pulled out their guns, aiming them at the group.
