In the middle of the Blackwater River.
Fang Xiu and his group walked quickly over and saw a special operations team dressed in black special operations uniforms and carrying submachine guns from afar.
They were all burly and stood ramrod straight, clearly having received professional training.
However, in front of the special operations team stood a man and a woman, both dressed in windbreakers, hiking boots, carrying trekking poles and backpacks, looking like tourists.
A man and a woman appear to be arguing with a special operations team.
"Why are you kicking us out? This place doesn't belong to you. We're just tourists looking at the scenery, and you're already interfering."
"Yeah, this isn't a tourist attraction. Besides, even if it were, we could buy tickets."
"We are on a special mission. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to approach. Please leave immediately," a member of the special operations team said coldly.
At this moment, Fang Xiu and the others had already arrived.
The member of the special operations team immediately jogged over, saluted, and said, "Investigator Fang, the 10th Special Operations Team reporting for duty."
Fang Xiu nodded, and just as he was about to speak, the man and woman walked over.
The man was tall and robust with a resolute appearance, while the woman was tall and slender with wheat-colored skin, giving the impression that she frequently engaged in outdoor exercise.
"Are you their leader? What gives you the right...?"
The moment the woman opened her mouth, a fierce and unruly attitude emerged.
Fang Xiu didn't give them a chance to finish speaking and directly ordered, "Get them out of here."
"yes."
The special operations team immediately sprang into action, with two members grabbing the man and woman and rushing them out.
The man wanted to struggle, but seeing that there were many people with guns, he didn't dare to resist in the end.
On the contrary, the women were the ones who cried out the most urgently.
"You just wait, I'm going to file a complaint against you. Do you know who I am? My dad is friends with the leaders of the Public Security Bureau, you...."
The man and woman were gradually pulled out of sight.
Zhao Hao sighed slightly: "There really are all kinds of people in the world. I always thought that everything online was just an act. Some of the videos online even showed people daring to fight with security guards. I never thought that there would actually be such people in real life."
"These two are really something. With so many armed and uniformed people on duty here, they actually dared to charge in?"
"Investigator Fang, these two claimed to be backpackers who don't like going to tourist attractions but prefer to go to remote and deserted mountains. We had just arrived when these two came."
Fang Xiu nodded: "Was it Wang Dehai who arranged for you to come?"
The man nodded and took out his investigation bureau credentials: "Director Wang sent us to cooperate with your work."
Fang Xiu was not surprised. This was the benefit of having the ability to foresee the future. If it were any other new Spirit Master, they certainly wouldn't be able to enjoy this treatment. Even if they could, they would have to report and communicate in advance.
All I need to do is make a phone call.
"Have you brought everything?"
"I brought everything."
"Okay, let's begin."
At Fang Xiu's command, the special operations team immediately began operations.
They were very fast and very professional. Some were wielding shovels to dig holes and dig canals to bring in water, some were pulling bundles of plastic pipes, some were setting up water pumps and generators, and some were even guarding the surrounding area to prevent outsiders from coming and causing damage.
They had clearly performed professional calculations to divert the river water to other nearby depressions.
Before long, the rumbling of the machines began.
With the help of dozens of water pumps, the river water level dropped rapidly.
Zhao Hao and Liu Shuai, who were standing to the side, were dumbfounded.
"Is this what a professional is like? They seem so impressive."
"Yes, if firearms were more effective against the supernatural, there probably wouldn't be any need for spirit masters anymore."
Several hours later, the river had successfully reached its bottom.
You can already see the silt at the bottom of the river, as well as many small puddles scattered around, and quite a few fish jumping around in the silt, and even turtles.
Throughout the entire process, Fang Xiu and the others kept a close watch to prevent the water monster from suddenly attacking and injuring people.
However, as the water level dropped to the bottom, the water monster never appeared.
"A female corpse! There's a female corpse there!" Zhao Hao exclaimed, pointing to a patch of silt at the bottom of the river.
In the mud, there was a hairless female corpse, half of which was buried.
"Holy crap, who's so ruthless as to slice someone's face into four pieces?"
Fang Xiu did not answer, but instead activated his Blood Eyes.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was drawn to the female corpse, and with the concealment of his sunglasses, he used his bloodshot eyes to search through the mud.
A moment later, Blood Eyes' gaze settled on a small puddle in the middle of the river.
He immediately closed his blood-red eyes, pointed to the small puddle, and said, "Chen Lingxue, bombard this puddle with flames."
Shen Lingxue did not hesitate at all and immediately chose to follow Fang Xiu's instructions, after all, she knew that Fang Xiu's ability was to foresee the future.
In her opinion, Fang Xiu must have foreseen the strange location.
Shen Lingxue opened her palm, and a ball of blazing, bright flame appeared in her hand, instantly raising the temperature around her.
She hurled the flames in her hand fiercely toward the spot Fang Xiu pointed to.
The flames, like a long dragon, crashed straight into the puddle.
boom!
A burst of flames erupted, and a wave of heat instantly swept across the entire area.
The water in that puddle boiled and evaporated, causing the damp mud to crack.
At that moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from the bottom of the puddle.
Immediately afterwards, a ball of wriggling hair, emitting a burnt smell, burst from the ground.
"Something strange has happened!" Zhao Hao exclaimed, then quickly hid behind Fang Xiu.
The hair floated in mid-air, whipping wildly, and a few strands of hair with flames were flung away, like a gecko losing its tail.
At this moment, the hair seemed to be enraged; its strands began to spread, like a spreading spider web, five meters, ten meters, twenty meters...
It seemed to envelop everyone completely.
At this moment, Shen Lingxue made her move, determined to avenge being soaked in the icy lake water for half a day yesterday.
Boom!
She conjured bright flames in her hands and relentlessly blasted them towards her hair.
But just then, Fang Xiu heard the sound of a bullet being chambered.
He frowned and looked at the special operations team.
Instinctively, they sensed something was wrong. They were clearly professionally trained soldiers who knew that guns were useless against strange things, so why would they load a bullet without orders?
Zhao Hao and Liu Shuai, who were standing nearby, also advised, "You can just watch from the side. Shen Lingxue's abilities are a natural counter to this strange creature."
But the next second, something shocking happened. As if they hadn't heard what everyone was saying, these special operations teams raised their guns and pointed them at Fang Xiu and the others.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing! You're all on the same side!" Zhao Hao shouted in fright.
"Quick...get out of the way! Our bodies are out of control!" a member of the special operations team shouted stiffly.
