"You have all heard about the County Master's beloved daughter's disappearance, right?"
Qin Ruobing looked around and said lightly.
The people in the audience nodded repeatedly.
They all knew that there might be a task to be issued next.
Sure enough, Qin Ruobing spoke again in a low voice:
"We have discussed and will investigate this matter with the county government. Each deputy hall master will select two people to cooperate with the county government."
As she said, she pointed at Yue Shulan, and then pointed at Lu Changsheng again.
Lu Changsheng was stunned. He didn't expect that he would be chosen.
But it doesn't hurt to investigate this matter.
Soon, the other two deputy hall masters also selected their candidates.
Including Lu Changsheng and two others, a total of four men and two women went to investigate the matter.
Several people prepared to leave immediately.
After everyone dispersed, Lu Changsheng and his group walked quickly out of the city.
...
Outside Baiyun Temple.
A large number of armored soldiers surrounded the entire temple, and monks were captured one by one and taken to prison vans.
A large number of monks all had sad faces, and the whole scene was gloomy.
When Lu Changsheng and his group arrived at the foot of the mountain, they were stopped by several black-clad armored soldiers.
"Do you have a pass?"
A strong man in armor said with a grim face.
Lu Changsheng immediately took out his token and handed it over.
Seeing this, the man's face suddenly became much more respectful.
"It turns out that you are the masters of the Demon Suppression Division. Please come in."
He immediately asked his men to disperse and leave a passage.
Lu Changsheng and everyone walked towards the top of the mountain.
Not long after, they came to a majestic hall.
He stepped in.
In front of him was a large Buddha statue, and the ground around it was covered with cushions, and the air was full of the smell of incense.
Obviously, this was where Du Ling disappeared.
Lu Changsheng looked around and was also quite surprised.
The surroundings were very closed, and there were a large number of armored soldiers guarding outside. How did the other party disappear?
Even Yue Shulan and the others were puzzled.
"Could it be that there is a spy inside the Xuanjia Army?"
Yue Shulan suddenly spoke in a faint tone.
"Impossible, there is not a Xuanjia guard guarding this place."
Another woman directly refuted.
Several people nodded slightly when they heard it, obviously quite agreeing.
Even if someone in the Xuanjia Army was bribed, it is impossible for all of them to be bribed. There is no wall that is impenetrable in the world, and there is no news of the Xuanjia Army's defection.
"Let's explore this place, hoping to gain something."
Yue Shulan said softly.
Then several people began to walk around and look around.
Lu Changsheng also observed the surroundings carefully.
He didn't believe that a living person just flew away like this. Obviously, there must be something strange here.
Half an hour later.
Everyone still didn't gain anything.
Lu Changsheng just came to the big Buddha in front, and suddenly found that the traces on the table were a little different.
Has this Buddha been moved?
He was shocked. He
immediately walked to the side of the Buddha and pushed it hard.
Yue Shulan and the others stopped when they saw Lu Changsheng's action, and their faces were very confused.
"Ka-ka-ka..."
At this moment, the Buddha was slowly pushed open, and a dark hole appeared in front of everyone.
Several people looked at Lu Changsheng with surprise.
Unexpectedly, it was Lu Changsheng, who was always low-key, who first discovered the clue.
Several people hurried to the front of the Buddha.
Looking down, the hole was several meters deep.
Not only that, there was a small gap at the bottom of the Buddha statue, just enough for a thin wooden stick to pass through.
Several people also had guesses in their hearts.
"I guess someone dug this passage in advance, and when Du Ling came to burn incense, he blew out the smoke and moved it..."
Yue Shulan's eyes were dim.
The others also nodded in agreement.
"Let's go down and take a look first."
Lu Changsheng jumped down directly and walked slowly to the front of the passage.
The passage was very narrow and only two people could pass through.
Yue Shulan and the others hurriedly followed Lu Changsheng.
A group of people followed the passage and explored forward.
It was not until half an hour later that they reached another exit.
Lu Changsheng jumped out.
Looking around, it was a wilderness with grass and trees everywhere.
Yue Shulan and the others also jumped out one after another.
After looking around, their faces were quite ugly.
"This place is already out of the Baiyun Temple."
"Such a long passage, the other party must have prepared for more than a year, it's really a big deal."
Yue Shulan said in a grim tone.
"Let's report this matter directly."
The tall and thin man said in a low voice.
The clues have been found, and their mission is considered completed.
As for how to rescue next, that is another matter.
Then, Lu Changsheng and the others returned to the demon suppression department and informed the three deputy hall masters of the passage.
Soon the county master also knew the news.
In the lobby of the county government.
"Pah..."
Du Wentao suddenly threw the teacup to the ground, his eyes full of anger.
"Investigate for me, send out the experts in the Black Armor Army immediately... You must rescue Ling'er."
He had a daughter in his old age, and he only had this one daughter, and he treated her as the apple of his eye. Now that she has suddenly disappeared, he feels heartbroken.
"Go and ask the Demon Suppression Division to help rescue her."
Then he pointed to the man dressed as a master in front of him.
"Your subordinate obeys your order."
The middle-aged man cupped his hands and turned back.
...
In the next few days, the official forces of the entire county all took action and tried their best to track down Du Ling's disappearance.
The energy that erupted was also extremely amazing.
After just a few days, there were general clues.
After interrogating the monks in the temple, all signs pointed to the Wenxiang Sect.
Du Wentao was furious when he heard the news, and immediately ordered to clean up all the bases of the Wenxiang Sect around the county and rescue Du Ling.
This large-scale mission also included the Demon Suppression Division.
...
Just as the forces in the county took action, there was a dark space underground outside the city.
"Report to the Lord, the person has been obtained, what should we do next?"
A man in black knelt on the ground, looking at the red-robed woman in front of him with awe.
"Hide Du Ling in a secret base, don't let the other party find it easily, and move to a random base in half a month. Remember not to hurt this woman..."
The red-robed woman's eyes were dim and her tone was extremely cold.
"Your subordinate obeys your order."
The man in black bowed.
He was quite confused.
They finally caught Du Ling, but in the end they had to return him to the county.
He could guess the plan for the first half of the month, which was just to consume the strength of the county government and the Demon Suppression Division as much as possible.
As for the Lord's plan later, he was not clear, and he did not dare to ask more.
The Lord must have prepared this secret for decades, so he naturally did not dare to destroy the other party's plan at will.
...
The next day, early in the morning.
Lu Changsheng went to the Demon Suppression Division to report for duty early in the morning.
When he arrived, a large number of colleagues had gathered in the hall.
Except for those who were on missions outside, almost everyone was here.
The three deputy hall masters stood on the high platform with serious faces.
"Today, a large-scale task is issued. All formal demon suppressors lead four trainee demon suppressors to clear out the strongholds of the Wenxiang Sect outside the city..."
Qin Ruobing's face was frosty and his tone was cold.
"We obey your order."
The people below the stage nodded repeatedly, and the loud voice resounded throughout the hall.
