Chapter 798 The Great Dream Returns 7
Although Jiang Xinxin's direction is unclear, she is very powerful. Fan Ying feels that with Jiang Xinxin in the Demon Hunting Bureau, the Chongwu Camp and the court ministers will not only focus on the Demon Hunting Bureau. Jiang Xinxin will divert most of their attention, and the Demon Hunting Bureau and the court officials who support it will not be under so much pressure. No matter how you look at it, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
So even though Jiang Xinxin rejected him once, Fan Ying still approved of Jiang Xinxin's existence as a non-staff member of the Demon Hunting Bureau's advance team.
After Zhuo Yichen distributed the files about the water ghost kidnapping the bride case, Jiang Xinxin looked at the other military order that was left behind and reminded everyone, "Just now, General Wu asked you to sign at the end. I didn't notice it before, but now I see that there is a five-day deadline. If the case cannot be solved within five days, the signer will be punished for dereliction of duty and commit suicide to apologize."
"I didn't know the identity of General Wu before, and I thought the person behind him, Prince Xiang, also helped His Royal Highness rebuild the Monster Hunting Bureau. Now it seems that the other party did help, but he just exerted pressure."
Upon hearing this, Wen Xiao and Zhuo Yichen nervously stared at the military order that had just been signed. Sure enough, after a while, a few more columns of words appeared on the military order!
Wen Xiao was so angry that he was shaking all over, "This is not ink, it's Meng Ji's blood!"
Afraid that Jiang Xinxin didn't understand, Zhao Yuanzhou explained: "Meng Ji, Wen Ti has a white body, looks like a leopard, and is good at hiding."
Zhuo Yichen added: "Meng Ji only revealed himself after his death, so using his blood to write can make the words invisible."
Pei Sijing hated the despicable tactics of the Chongwu Camp more and more, and had no objection to joining the Monster Hunting Bureau. She reminded everyone to act quickly and not waste time because of momentary anger.
Jiang Xinxin sighed, stood up and suggested, "Let's go to the first crime scene and check the files on the way. We also need to assign some people to check the body of the murdered bride. We have to act quickly. I suspect that the people in Chongwu Camp will take the initiative to destroy the bodies in order to let everyone die."
Zhao Yuanzhou immediately came over and pulled Jiang Xinxin's arm: "I want to go with my master, you guys choose the other side!"
Jiang Xinxin immediately corrected Zhao Yuanzhou: "I don't accept disciples, you are not my disciple. I'm going to the crime scene outside the city."
Wen Xiao and Zhuo Yichen looked at each other and quickly divided into teams. Wen Xiao said, "I will go with Master Yuan Xin. Master Yuan Xin may not be familiar with Tiandu City, so I will lead the way."
Bai Jiu was a little afraid of corpses, so he chose to follow Jiang Xinxin and Wen Xiao to the scene. Zhuo Yichen and Pei Sijing went to the funeral home first to check the victim's body.
Jiang Xinxin only felt that this world seemed to have no restrictions, but in fact, it imposed great restrictions on her. For example, her ability to see demonic energy was sometimes effective and sometimes not. Unless the demons came in front of her and she happened to use her heavenly eyes, she would not be able to tell who was a demon and who was a human.
Of course, the demon race is actually quite easy to identify, because they admire a head of hair that symbolizes the strength of their demonic power. They don't like to tie their hair up like humans do, and prefer to let their hair hang loose as much as possible. Even their decorations are related to their original bodies.
But the monsters are not easy to find, like Meng Ji before. Meng Ji will only appear after being killed. At the beginning, even when she used her divine eyes, she could only see a few more columns of text in the blank space on the military order, but she couldn't see what was written specifically.
Meng Ji was probably in General Wu's carriage, and was killed only after General Wu returned to the carriage.
Wen Xiao saw that Jiang Xinxin was in a bad mood. She also understood that it was probably related to Meng Ji's death. She was also somewhat in the wrong in this matter, so she followed Jiang Xinxin silently without saying a word.
Zhao Yuanzhou was trying to persuade Jiang Xinxin to become his disciple. Jiang Xinxin was annoyed by him and finally spoke out her thoughts: "Have you ever thought about why the demon race, which was born before the human race and dominated the Great Wilderness, would be restrained and commanded by a so-called Bai Ze Goddess? Even now, the survival of the Great Wilderness depends on the Bai Ze Goddess?"
No matter how exaggerated these people's words are, the fact in Jiang Xinxin's eyes is that Bai Ze personally handed over the management rights of the entire Great Wilderness to the human race. No wonder the human race, although weak, is eager to skin and marrow the monsters and use them completely.
Of course, Jiang Xinxin actually had no opinion about the Bai Ze Goddess herself, regardless of whether their butts were sitting crookedly or not. In fact, they did bring stability to the Great Wilderness and protected the monsters in the Great Wilderness from being harmed by humans.
With a sigh, Jiang Xinxin softened her tone, "According to me, since the gods opened up the human world for humans to live in, the human world belongs entirely to humans, and the demons should not get involved. The imbalance of the Great Wilderness is indeed related to Baidi and Bai Ze. I will restore the Great Wilderness to its original state, and I will also close the gate to the God Realm in the future to prevent the two races from traveling together. I only hope that both worlds can have peace and tranquility in the future."
Hearing this, Wen Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But Bai Jiu said meaningfully: "But the demons have been in the human world for a long time, and even some humans have mixed with the blood of great demons from their ancestors. Just like Lord Xiao Zhuo, their ancestors have the blood of Bingyi. Although the blood is thin now, it still makes them stronger than ordinary people. How are you going to deal with such a half-demon, half-human body, Lord Yuan Xin?"
Jiang Xinxin reminded him, "Bingyi is not a demon, but a divine beast. He belongs to the dragon clan, an ice dragon. If I remember correctly, Bingyi killed Yinglong, and Yinglong is also a divine beast of the dragon clan."
"However, as for those half-human, half-demon creatures you mentioned, my advice is that if you are strong, you should go to the Great Wilderness, because the demon race has a long lifespan. Even the weak and vulnerable little demons in the eyes of humans have a lifespan of at least three to five hundred years. Even if their hybrid children do not inherit any demon power, their physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people, and their lifespan is at least one to two hundred years."
"If such a hybrid child has no ability to protect himself, he will easily become a meal for those with ulterior motives or the powerful if he stays in the human world. Because humans are fragile and have a short lifespan, they most hope for immortality."
Zhao Yuanzhou reminded Jiang Xinxin, "I'm afraid that won't work, because in the Great Wilderness, strength is everything. These mixed-bloods are not as good as the pure-blooded monsters, and are particularly easy to be bullied. It might be better for them to stay in the human world."
Jiang Xinxin smiled and said, "It's okay. You also said that the demon race worships strength. I will pass on the method of cultivation so that they can have the power to protect themselves."
Zhao Yuanzhou was about to bring up the matter of becoming a disciple again, but Jiang Xinxin turned to Wen Xiao and said, "You experienced what happened today yourself. Meng Ji died on the spot in the power struggle of the human race. I don't mean to excuse the demon race. After all, it is a fact that the demon race is wreaking havoc on the human world. It's just that the two races cannot be integrated together, and it is best to separate them completely."
Wen Xiao is worthy of being the purest and kindest person chosen by Bai Ze Ling. Even though she herself has only two years to live due to her weak body, she only wants to find Bai Ze Ling to maintain peace in the wilderness and the human world, and to cure her own illness. She has never thought of using other methods to prolong her life.
But today, Jiang Xinxin revealed that humans try to gain immortality and power by eating the flesh and blood of demons or using demons to conduct various experiments. As a human, she couldn't help but feel ashamed.
After leaving the city, Jiang Xinxin walked onto a desolate-looking road. Jiang Xinxin couldn't help but open the file in her hand and look through it. Comparing it with the desolate environment in front of her, doubts in her heart popped up one after another.
Bai Jiu followed Jiang Xinxin, and seeing Jiang Xinxin's face getting uglier, he couldn't help but ask carefully, "Did Lord Yuan Xin think of anything?"
Wen Xiao and Zhao Yuanzhou, who were walking in front, immediately turned around and looked at Jiang Xinxin. Jiang Xinxin closed the file and expressed her doubts: "This file records that the first bride who was killed was the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Tiandu City. No matter where she was going to marry, you see this road--"
Wen Xiao understood immediately and explained, "This road is too desolate. The wealthy merchants in Tiandu City will not marry their daughters off casually. Since the bridal sedan needs to go out of the city, the groom cannot be from Tiandu City. But no matter which direction it goes, the bridal sedan should take the main road."
Bai Jiu was a half-demon who had lived in the human world for more than ten years. He immediately understood what Jiang Xinxin and Wen Xiao meant: "So, maybe the bridal sedan was targeted from the beginning and was deliberately led here for easy targeting!"
Jiang Xinxin and her group determined that the culprit was a water monster, and that the monster's target was the bride.
On the other side, Zhuo Yichen and Pei Sijing arrived a little late. They only had time to check on one of the victim brides and confirm that she had no external injuries. The victim's body and other evidence were destroyed by the people from Chongwu Camp. Therefore, they could only conclude that at least one of the brides seemed to have been frightened to death.
