Atlas of Heaven and Earth-Chapter 310: Serpent Garment

On April 29th, a communication message came from the Processing Bureau via Chen Chuan's Boundary Token, asking him to go to the bureau, saying they had something to ask him.

He thought, "It's finally here?"

He originally thought that the Processing Bureau would look for him within a day or two after Zhao Qian's incident, but he didn't expect that so many days had passed. Could it be that the matter was discovered late?

At this moment, the Boundary Token rang again. Seeing that it was Ni Qianxi looking for him, he connected. "Sister Ni?"

Ni Qianxi asked, "Have you received the notice from the bureau asking you to come in for questioning?"

"I received it. I don't know what they want to ask."

"It's about Zhao Qian . Zhao Qian is missing, did you know?"

Chen Chuan was a little surprised. "Missing?" He knew that Zhao Qian was dead, but he really didn't know about the disappearance.

"Yes, that's the matter."

Ni Qianxi said, "Didn't you accuse him of hiring people to attack you? Because of this conflict, some people in the bureau now suspect that this matter is related to you." freewёbnoνel.com

Chen Chuan said sincerely, "This disappearance really has nothing to do with me."

"It wouldn't matter even if it really did."

Ni Qianxi's tone was very disdainful. "The evidence you provided is all there. Some people don't think about standing up for their own people, but instead think about how to use this matter. They don't even offer you any comfort. Since they don't treat you as one of their own, then you don't need to treat them as one."

Chen Chuan already had a good idea of what was going on. He asked, "Sister Ni, is there anything I should pay attention to during the questioning?"

Ni Qianxi said, "Nothing. What can they really do to you? They ask their questions, and you answer yours."

Chen Chuan said, "I understand. Thank you, Sister Ni."

After ending the call, he changed his clothes and arrived at the Processing Bureau's headquarters in Martial Determination District at the appointed time. As soon as he arrived at the bureau, a special person invited him to an office, poured him a cup of tea, and asked him some questions. On the surface, they were very polite and didn't make the atmosphere too serious.

In less than half an hour, they sent him out.

Chen Chuan went outside, on the way to the parking lot to pick up his car, he said to Gao Ming , "Gao Ming , I'm out. They did ask those questions, but they didn't delve into them, just like your prediction."

Gao Ming's voice came out: "Cousin, the reason they asked you in for questioning is more to have a self-examination process that they can show to anyone who asks.

In fact, even if there is direct evidence, they won't uncover the truth and target you, their own invested student , because Zhao Qian is already dead after all. Cousin, you are undoubtedly more valuable now. Once you achieve Third Limit someday, they will pretend that this matter never happened.

No matter how you look at it, Third Limit is a watershed."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "It won't be too long."

Inside the Processing Bureau building, a middle-aged man with an Anomaly gleam in his eyes, wearing a uniform and a wide-brimmed hat, stood by the window on a high floor, watching Chen Chuan's figure heading outside.

Someone behind him said, "Director Wu , this matter is definitely related to him."

Director Wu said, "Zhao Qian is already dead. There's no point in investigating further. And if Zhao Qian was really killed by him, then we should be glad that we will have another comrade with great potential in the future."

The person behind him expressed doubt about this, "Will he be our comrade? I think he is more likely to join the General Affairs Bureau."

Director Wu said, "Comrades are people with common goals, regardless of where they are. I can feel that the returns he can bring to the Processing Bureau in the next few years will far exceed our investment in resources in him."

The person behind him said nothing more.

Director Wu watched Chen Chuan drive away and said in a deep voice, "What did United Power Heavy Industries say?"

The person behind him immediately replied, "There has been no response so far."

"It seems they were prepared to abandon Zhao Qian long ago. Then this matter ends here."

Director Wu glanced at the Boundary Token, where there was an image, a photo of Zhao Qian's head. He said in a deep voice, "Send a message to the higher-ups to confirm the death of Zhao Qian , a member of the Zhao Family family in Yangzhi City, and write it into the files for sealing."

"Yes."

On the way back, Chen Chuan received another call from Ni Qianxi , saying, "I'll tell you some good news. The bureau has just decided to increase your Radiant Light quota by one hour per month."

Chen Chuan was slightly surprised and said, "I wonder what the reason is?"

Ni Qianxi curled her lips and said, "Give a sweet date after a beating, right?"

Chen Chuan thought for a while and said sincerely, "Then you can give me a few more beatings."

Ni Qianxi couldn't help but giggle. Chen Chuan knew that her laughing point was low, so he waited calmly.

After a while, Ni Qianxi calmed down and said, "Well, let me tell you something. The exchange meeting was very effective. I see that those little guys are very unconvinced by you and want to win back a game. Fists, feet, and weapons are all fine. As usual, there will be rewards, more than last time. Consider whether you want to go or not."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, Sister Ni, I will consider it."

At the top of the Mysterious Palace Tower, Assistant Ling sat

in the garden hall, his fingers tapping next to the seat. He was contacting someone using the Boundary Token, "Yes, that's right, Zhao Qian is missing."

He smiled, "There are not so many coincidences in the world. Whether he did it by taking medicine or whether he has such strength himself, it proves that he is suitable to join our plan."

He watched the simulated colorful winged birds fly past in front of him, retracted their wings and landed on the ground, and said with a smile, "Of course not now. Only when you truly enter the Third Limit, you have the qualification to face reality."

After Chen Chuan returned to the dormitory, he felt a lot more relaxed. Zhao Qian was not only a threat he had to face recently, but also a continuation of the Yangzhi City incident.

The death of Zhao Qian meant that this matter could be brought to a conclusion.

However, he guessed that someone must have deliberately leaked his information to Zhao Qian . Who could this person be? Although it was not entirely certain, he unconsciously thought of one person.

He remembered Instructor Wu's reminder before his death, so he still had to maintain a certain level of vigilance.

There was also the matter of Senior Student Shen's sister. Zhao Qian was dead, but clues might be found in that Implant. He was waiting for news from Wu Bei . If he couldn't find it there, he could think of other ways. At least without Zhao Qian as an obstacle, it would be more convenient to investigate the matter.

In the following ten days or so, Chen Chuan continued his daily training and learning. Because of the increase in Evaluation points, many non-public Data books were opened to him, including some old times records and valuable rare books. He would go to read them whenever he had free time.

In early May, one day before the Holiday, Cao Guiqi's butler, Uncle Ding , contacted him.

"The young master has already contacted the people from the Secret Serpent Cult. Due to the particularity of the service project, they will send someone to meet with Little Brother Chen. When does Little Brother Chen have time, we can make an appointment."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "I'm free tomorrow."

Uncle Ding said, "Then let's make it tomorrow. Tomorrow is Holiday, two o'clock in the afternoon. If it is convenient for Little Brother Chen, come once."

Chen Chuan said okay and agreed.

The next day, after noon, he drove to Mo Tie Mountain. The person sent by the Secret Serpent Cult had already arrived in advance.

This was a handsome man with jade-like skin, but there were Embedded lines on his exposed face and neck, which were obvious Implants. His eyes were also changed into the shape of snake pupils, and his hair was tied into a bun. If he hadn't been told in advance, he would have been mistaken for a woman at first glance.

After meeting, he introduced himself, "I am Zou Handan , a member of the Secret Serpent Cult. This time, Mr. Cao introduced and guaranteed me to be responsible for the project service for Mr. Chen."

His voice had a trace of singing resonance and a unique rhythm. The feeling was like someone on a stage talking to you.

"But I must tell Mr. Chen in advance that although the success rate of our Secret Serpent Cult's service is not low, it also has certain risks. If you are not careful or protected properly, it can also be fatal. Therefore, we will provide Mr. Chen with some Data and ask you to reconfirm after reading it."

With that, he took a scroll, placed it on the table, and pushed it forward. "This is the Data we provide. Mr. Chen, please take a look. If you agree, please sign on it after reading it."

Chen Chuan picked up the scroll, untied the knot, and opened it in front of him. The entire content was half picture and half text, mentioning everything from the origin to the changes today, making it clear at a glance.

Early Martial Artists did not have the convenience of today's training. They often spent their lives chasing and competing for secret medicines. In order to get rid of this shackles, the Secret Serpent Cult had an idea as early as the old times, which was to cultivate a special kind of snake to assist Martial Artists in Cultivation.

However, after repeated attempts by generations of people, the snake species, even after a long period of breeding, was still unable to satisfy people. It was not until the algal liquid revolution in the new era that breakthroughs were made in biotechnology, and it was finally completed.

The picture scroll was accompanied by ancient-style line drawings. The first picture was the snake catching picture, with the Secret Serpent Cult ancestors carrying snake baskets and entering the deep mountains to hook and catch snakes.

The snakes in the paintings are all very exaggerated, either strangely shaped, or huge, or with wings on their backs. The Secret Serpent Cult ancestors often could not resist and often went through hardships to capture suitable ones.

The second picture is the snake refining picture, feeding snakes with various rare medicinal materials, as well as old times practices such as feeding snakes with blood and feeding snakes with the body.

The third picture is a person being swallowed into the snake's belly, and the fourth picture is the snake dying on the ground, and then the person tearing the snake skin out.

"The Snake Shedding Method."

Zou Handan waited for him to see this before slowly saying, "The Secret Serpent Cult's ancestors believed that snakes shed their skin to gain new life, and after ninety-nine times, they transform into dragons when they encounter thunder. If a person uses a snake as skin and transforms it, they can also obtain its fate."

He looked at Chen Chuan with those snake pupils, "As Mr. Chen has seen, this service requires the strange snake cultivated by our cult to swallow Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen needs to stay in the snake's belly for a certain period of time to achieve the effect of this service. I wonder if Mr. Chen is willing?
