Chapter 169 Fangbei Trading Co., Ltd.
The Land of the Dead is located in the Mobei region.
It has always been the three forbidden lands in Middle-earth.
There are different opinions about the origin of the Land of the Dead.
Some people say that this place was formed by an ancient battlefield, when Xu Da went on an expedition to Mongolia and went deep into the desert.
Needless to say, there were many obstacles along the way.
There are also some smart people who know that there is no place for them to live in Middle-earth, so they go far away to find a suitable place to live.
The Mobei area is remote and inaccessible, and even people from the Secret Bureau rarely come here.
Coupled with some special geomantic topography here and a "River of Styx" crossing it, it became the most suitable place for the undead to live.
Over the past few decades, countless undead souls have entered and lived in it. Gradually, the Land of the Dead has had an increasing influence on Middle-earth, and eventually it became a forbidden land on the territory of Middle-earth.
According to the information given by the Secret Bureau, this place is full of filth and evil spirits.
But because of this, the Yin Qi here breeds many good things that are useful to exorcists.
For example, the resurrecting grass that only grows along the Styx River, the corpse wood that has been soaked in the Styx water for countless years, and various tombs buried in extremely yin places.
You must know that these things can only be produced on the Uncursed Road, and even people from the Secret Bureau dare not enter that ghost place of the Uncursed Road, and the mortality rate exceeds 90%.
Relatively speaking, the situation in the Land of the Dead is much better.
This also allows many desperadoes to enter the Land of the Dead in search of opportunities to make a fortune.
In the beginning, Yu Bushun was one of these adventurers, but he had good means and high abilities.
After accumulating wealth here, he began to switch to business.
He specializes in buying things that exorcists bring out from inside. If there are injured exorcists, he will kill them and rob them of all valuable things.
Sometimes they even use the corpses of these people to blackmail the relatives of the deceased.
After having money, Yu Bushun began to recruit troops. Anyway, many colleagues in northwest Shanxi pointed to Yu Bushun for food.
Of course, Yu Bushun has done so many bad things and offended many people.
If Academician Han's disappearance is really related to Yu Bushun, this job will be really difficult.
The Land of the Dead is a lawless place. If the other party is really anxious, it is not impossible to kill both of us here.
No wonder the boss wants some bad guys to come with guns.
That's not for dealing with undead and zombies, it's for dealing with Yu Bushun.
SNTYQ is only a county-level city and does not have an airport. So Zhang Sanfen and I got off the plane in Erenhot, then bought a second-hand Toyota Prado and went straight to our destination.
According to Zhang Sanfen, if you want to enter the Land of the Dead, SNTYQ is the most convenient and nearest way.
This place is very convenient for replenishing supplies. The most important thing is that the Mobei branch of the Secret Bureau has a supply point right at SNTYQ.
According to Zhang Sanfen's authority, he can mobilize a lot of useful resources and intelligence here.
This is also what makes me feel weird.
Because we can dispatch vehicles from the Secret Bureau at SNTYQ's supply point.
Their vehicles are modified, highly powered, and capable of adapting to harsh environments and terrains.
Why did Zhang Sanfen have to buy this second-hand car? Isn't he ready to mobilize the resources of the Secret Bureau?
Faced with my question, Zhang Sanfen explained seriously: "Old He, don't underestimate Yu Bushun!"
"Old He, think about the fate of the first two rescue teams, you should understand."
I My heart is awe-inspiring.
yes.
Why has there been no news from the first two rescue teams until now?
I'm afraid I was tricked by Yu Bushun, right?
Although we have no evidence, if we say who can take down two heavily armed rescue teams silently, except for the knife from the back, I can't think of anyone else who can do it.
In an instant, I immediately understood the boss’s plan.
On this trip, we cannot rely on the resources of the Mobei branch.
You have to rely on yourself for everything.
After thinking about this, I finally understood what my boss often said to me: In this world, people are much scarier than ghosts!
Ghosts are always ghosts, and sometimes people are not people.
It’s important for me to realize this.
It can be said that many exorcists who traveled around the world did not die at the hands of evil zombies, but died at the hands of colleagues with ulterior motives.
Seeing me thinking deeply, Zhang Sanfen smiled and said: "It would be great if you could understand this truth, so as not to be plotted by others for no reason in the future." "
Another point is that the Land of the Dead is not just a place where undead zombies live. It is also a hiding place for wanted criminals."
"As far as I know, there is a criminal village inside, where dozens of wanted criminals live. Every once in a while, they drive out and go to SNTYQ to buy supplies and follow Fangbei Trading Co., Ltd."
"Yu Bushun is probably a partner of the wanted criminals."
