The Ninth Secret Bureau

Vol 2 Chapter 7: Looking for someone, looking for something

This night was extremely long for Chen Xian.

Because in that long sleep, he has returned to the land of that strange and psychedelic nightmare.

In the dimness, Chen Xian once again came to the vast, unknown deep sea. He wandered lonely in the depths of the endless ocean like a homeless ghost, surrounded by thousands of deep-sea fishes. His body slowly sank, and gradually saw the ancient square that had long since been decayed, and let him see what is still fresh in his memory and unforgettable—

That big scarlet tree rotting on the bottom of the sea.

This time the dream is far more real than last time, and the picture has become much clearer.

Accompanied by the invisible and turbulent undercurrent of the seabed, Chen Xian drifted uncontrollably to the root of the blood tree that reached the sky. From this distance, he could clearly see that there were countless human heads on the trunk that resembled the scarlet mountain peak. Inlaid in the bark like gems...Of course, Chen Xian couldn't tell whether those heads belonged to human beings, because the size of each head was about three times that of a normal human.

Those skulls lost their skin, and the blood-red muscle tissue exposed in the sea looked terrifying like a nightmare. Even under the deep sea, Chen Xian could still feel the smell of blood.

They don't seem to have died, even if they are imprisoned in this strange blood tree, they are doing their best to show the power of life, and they keep opening their mouths to breathe in the sea.

Because there is no skin tissue on their faces as a concealment, their eyes look terrifying, and each eyeball protrudes fiercely, and the whites of their eyes are also occupied by cobwebs of blood.

Perhaps it was due to the presence of outsiders coming here, and all the heads began to wriggle frantically, struggling desperately, seeming to want to get rid of the shackles of the bark, and there was also a chilling hostility in their eyes. That is A look in the eyes of hunters looking at their prey...

Standing in front of the blood-colored giant tree with human heads, Chen Xian silently looked at these horrible images, and did not feel the slightest fear, because he knew he was dreaming.

Compared with the previous nightmare, this nightmare seems to have many more details. From a certain point of view, it should be that the dream is more complete, and the information that can be obtained has also increased. Of course, there are also reduced parts. For example... the scream that I heard in my dream last time.

"Why would I have this dream..."

Standing under the scarlet and foul-smelling giant tree, Chen Xian looked up at the heads of countless humans. His face was so calm that there was no expression on his face. His sober consciousness made him continue to analyze.

He is not a person who likes to dream, and the dreams he has had in the past are not much different from the dreams of normal people. They are almost all the kind of vague, chaotic and unclear dreams.

But this nightmare made him clearly realize that this scene...maybe something strangely related to him.

Although this analysis and speculation is unfounded, but intuition tells him this way—

This place is not unfamiliar. It seems to have been here at some time, but I can't remember it anymore.

Suddenly, a voice appeared in Chen Xian's mind.

That voice was calling his name, and his consciousness gradually blurred, until he escaped from this nightmare...

"Chen~Xian~"

Mu He sat next to Chen Xian, shaking his arm constantly, seeing that it had been bright outside for a while, Mu He seemed more anxious because she hadn't eaten breakfast yet.

If you don’t eat breakfast, you will get stomach problems. If you have stomach problems, you will not eat. If you do not eat, you will starve to death like the old man next door.

This is what Chen Xian taught her yesterday, and she remembers it very deeply.

"Chen Xian...get up quickly..."

Listening to her soft and waxy shout, it was not like calling people to get up, it was more like a cat acting like a baby, so soft that there was no power to wake people up, but the strength in her hands was not small... .. About to shake Chen Xian's body apart.

"Don't." Like a corpse, Chen Xian opened his eyes suddenly and stared at her, "Don't shake it."

Seeing Chen Xian awake, Mu He threw himself into his arms very happily, his soft hair kept rubbing against Chen Xian's chest, and he urged him to get up and cook or he would die.

"Dead?" Chen Xian looked at the girl confusedly, "Who told you that he would die?"

Mu He raised his head and poked Chen Xian's face with his pink and tender little finger: "You said... will die..."

"When did I say... wait a minute... I seem to remember."

Chen Xian sat up on the bed, rubbed his eyes, and yawned long.

This dream is really long...I don't know if I dream about it next time... Will something else appear again?

Under the unknown deep sea, in the ruined ancient square, there is also the blood tree full of human heads.

Have you seen them before? Have you seen relevant records on the Internet or in books? That's why I dreamed of those pictures unconsciously?

"Chen Xian~"

"Don't rush, I'm going to cook now."

Chen Xian yawned again, put on slippers and walked out of the bedroom.

Today is not what it should be in the rainy season, the sky is just right, and the yard has begun to dry up, and it seems that even the air has become warm.

In this kind of good weather, Chen Xian's mood was rarely brought to life, and the mood that had been destroyed by Xu Sanhan before was much better.

Buy groceries and cook.

Chen Xian is like the most standard housewife, living in food, clothing, and transportation, and bothering for the little girl Mu He.

In private, Chen Xian also thought about it, maybe the feeling of taking care of children is like taking care of Mu He... my heart is really tired!

"Muhe."

"Ok?"

"I'm thinking... should you change your clothes..."

Chen Xian silently looked at the girl, looking at it from head to toe.

Mu He is very beautiful and has the right amount of plump figure, but...Wearing a masculine outfit, no matter how unpleasant to look at it, I always find it strange.

"It's early today. I'll take you to the mall and buy you a change of clothes."

Chen Xian got up to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, the tone of his mouth was quite the feeling of parents talking to their children, and there was a faint sense of relief.

Mu He has made great progress in the past few days, at least from his mentally unsound appearance, slowly becoming normal.

Among them, changing clothes was the most troublesome thing for Chen Xian. This big problem has been solved by Mu He. Chen Xian expressed his heart and comfort about this, and he finally didn't have to bother about that embarrassing thing.

"Bang! Bang!"

Hearing this extremely abrupt knock on the door, Chen Xian, who was washing the dishes in the kitchen, was taken aback for a moment. He subconsciously thought of Fatty Huo, who had just come to the door yesterday to beg for an accomplice.

Without waiting for Chen Xian to think about it, the people outside knocked on the door a few more times.

The voice is a bit loud, and it sounds a bit anxious.

It seems that it is not Huo Fatty and them.

"Who?" Chen Xian wiped his hands and walked out and asked.

The people outside the door did not answer, they were still knocking on the door, and didn't stop like a urging.

When Chen Xian walked to the door, his action to open the door suddenly froze for a second, because he felt more than one person outside the door, judging from the smell... there should be eleven people.

"You go back to the living room first, I won't tell you not to come out." Chen Xian said without looking back.

Mu He was still in the yard looking at Chen Xian in a daze, but now when he heard this, he got up with great experience and ran into the living room.

At this moment, Chen Xiancai slowly opened the door to the old house.

As he had judged before, there were eleven people standing in the lane outside the door.

Ten of them all dressed the same, all wore a neat black suit, and the similarity in age was also very high. They were all in their thirties to forties.

The only thing that stands out is a woman.

It was a very young woman, as old as Chen Xian.

According to the aesthetics of normal people, this woman can definitely be called a goddess.

She looks only slightly shorter than Chen Xian, but her tall figure is not thin and thin. There is a very bright and healthy beauty. The plump curves of the front and the back are also full of sexy. Her double The legs are especially slender, looking particularly dazzling in the sun, and the sensuality is permeated with unspeakable intellectual beauty.

"Who are you looking for?"

Chen Xian's gaze only glanced at the woman, and did not pause much.

"Xu Sanhan died here?" The woman suddenly said, her voice as clear as an oriole.

"Who are you looking for?" Chen Xian asked this question for the second time, but did not answer the woman's words.

At this moment, a man standing beside the woman spoke with a strong sense of oppression in his tone.

"If you ask you anything, you will answer whatever, understand?"

"Who are you looking for?"

Chen Xian asked for the last time, his tone has become a little impatient, after all, there are still chopsticks and spoons in the sink that have not been washed. For his kind of cleanliness fanatics, he put those dirty tableware there without washing... ...This is simply torture.

Seeing that the people outside the door did not respond, Chen Xian took the initiative to take a step forward and stood in front of the door.

"Or...you are here to find something?"
