Chapter 5 Puppet Manager
Captain Liu's cell phone suddenly rang. When he saw the content on it, his face became a little solemn, and then he stopped Feng Tianning who wanted to leave.
"Miss Feng, this is your first time on a field mission. I'll send someone to accompany you."
Feng Tianning nodded. Her divine power was still a little unstable. If her divine power got out of control, it would be nice to have someone to control her.
Nuwa, who had not been to the human world for a long time, had no idea how far mortals had come in their cultivation, nor did she realize that if the divine power got out of control, only Fuxi could control her.
Captain Liu spoke a few words into the phone, and soon a baby-faced girl knocked on the office door.
"Gou Chen, you and Miss Feng will go on this mission together."
Captain Liu said this and handed the girl a folder.
After looking at the mission situation, Xuan Gou Chen frowned.
"Captain Liu, this mission is at most a low-level supernatural event, why do you want me to go?"
Captain Liu was a little dissatisfied, but thinking that she was from the Xuan family, an ancient martial arts family, he could only speak in a gentle tone:
"Miss Feng has just joined the special case team. You can go on missions with her so that she can take care of you if anything happens."
There was one more thing Captain Liu didn't say.
His leader asked him to monitor Feng Tianning. Xuan Gou Chen was from an ancient martial arts family and his strength should not be underestimated. He was the best candidate to monitor Feng Tianning.
Xuan Gou Chen then turned his gaze to Feng Tianning, who had been silent all the time.
The moment she saw Feng Tianning's face, her body couldn't stop shaking, and she was instinctively afraid of the person in front of her.
How is this possible?
She is a genius of the younger generation of an ancient martial arts family. How could she be afraid of this stranger she met for the first time?
But this trembling seemed to come from the depths of the soul, and I'm afraid that the elders in the family would also feel this way if they came.
Feng Tianning was also stunned when he heard Xuan Gou Chen's name.
Gou Chen is one of the twenty-eight constellations, representing its guardian, Teng Snake.
Seeing that the two people were silent with no intention of greeting each other, Captain Liu coughed lightly to break the weird atmosphere.
"Go quickly and report any unusual problems promptly."
Xuan Gou Chen finally came to his senses and walked out with a stiff body.
"My name is Xuan Gou Chen, you can just call me Ah Chen."
"Feng Tianning."
Xuan Gou Chen gritted his teeth and said the first sentence.
When she heard Feng Tianning say her name, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. This girl was not that scary.
Sitting on the special case team's exclusive helicopter, Feng Tianning kept lamenting how fast the world is developing.
The plane landed quickly and they met the Qiantang River management staff.
"Two officers, I am the administrator of Qiantang River." The administrator politely invited Feng Tianning and Xuan Gou Chen to the reception desk.
"You don't have to be nervous, we are just conducting a routine interrogation." Xuan Gou Chen's voice sounded coldly.
"Officers, it's not uncommon for someone to die in the Qiantang River. It's just that this time it was a foreign tourist, so the case was handed over to the special case team."
"When the tide rises and falls, there will always be people falling into the lake."
Feng Tianning noticed from the moment the administrator said his first sentence that he spoke word by word, as if he had something in his mouth.
She glanced at Xuan Gou Chen and found that he had also noticed something was wrong, so she nodded to the administrator and said:
"I know. Go ahead and get busy."
Only when he could no longer hear the administrator's voice did Xuan Gou Chen speak:
"Did you also notice something was wrong?"
Feng Tianning nodded:
"He spoke as if he was being controlled, as if someone was using him as a puppet."
"It seems that his words did not come from his own mouth." Xuan Gou Chen continued after Feng Tianning's words.
puppet!
The word flashed through their minds at the same time.
"Let's go see the so-called river guards first."
Xuan Gou Chen nodded and had a different understanding of this new agent. Her ideas always seemed to be one step ahead of his own.
The man guarding the river is an old man with white hair. He looks like he is in his seventies or eighties, but his face is full of energy, giving people the impression that he is a middle-aged man in his 40s.
"Old man, can we still cross the river now?"
Xuan Gou Chen changed his face and no longer looked like an agent. He looked more like a tourist.
"Little girl, you can't cross now."
"Why?" Feng Tianning pretended to be confused.
The old man glanced around and said mysteriously:
"Lord Jiang Ling of Qiantang River was furious. A few days ago, he dragged two ill-intentioned foreigners into the water."
"Lord Jiang Ling?"
"That is the guardian deity of the Qiantang River. He once appeared in my dream and told me to pull tourists to the other side every day when the tide rises.
As long as there are people with bad intentions who want to harm society, Master Jiang Ling will bring them down, and everyone else will be fine as long as they wear a blindfold. "
Feng Tianning and Xuan Gou Chen looked at each other and both noticed the problem in Shoujiangren's words.
All things have spirits. If one cultivates well enough, he or she can become a guardian spirit, protecting the peace of an area and becoming an immortal in the future.
However, guardian spirits cannot contact mortals privately, cannot send messages in dreams, and even less can they drag down people with bad intentions.
I think only evil spirits can drag people down.
"Old man, we came from far away just to experience crossing the river."
"Please be flexible and take us two to try it. We can pay extra money."
The old man looked at Xuan Gou Chen in embarrassment, and spoke after a long while:
"Then I'll make an exception. You guys come here tonight at ten o'clock."
"The surveillance cameras on the Qiantang River will be shut down at ten o'clock. I'll take you there then."
