Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The stone door slowly opened.

One after another, carts were pushed into the stone gate.

Xu Taiping pressed his hand against the box, feeling the distance of the car through the vibration of the box.

The car vibrated for about three seconds before it stopped. Then, a faint feeling of weightlessness came from beneath his feet.

"We're going down!" Xu Taiping said in a serious tone.

"Underground?!" Ah Zi was stunned.

"Yes, we should be on a lift somewhere, now." Xu Taiping said.

"Then where are we going to go?" Zi asked.

"It should be the inside of the mountain. The shape of the mountain is big and small, and we're halfway down the mountain. Moreover, we're going straight down, so we should be directly inside the mountain and not outside." Xu Taiping said.

"What exactly is the God Valley Race planning to do? "Why are you doing this in the mountains?" Zi asked.

"Who knows?" Xu Taiping shrugged. If this was in the ancient times, you could think that the God Valley race did this because they wanted to fight for the world. But in the modern era, what's the point of doing this? How can you compete for the top spot?

At this moment, the box suddenly paused.

From the looks of it, the lift had stopped.

Then, the box moved again, and the people outside pushed the box again.

This time, the movement lasted for about a minute before the box stopped. Then, the sound of footsteps came closer and closer, as if it was leaving.

Xu Taiping jumped up, jumped to the top of the box, then opened the box's top, stuck his head out and looked around.

There were a total of four carts parked around Xu Taiping, all of them probably coming down at the same time. According to each cart, there should be 20 people inside.

Xu Taiping looked around. Right now, he was in a very large space with a ceiling, so it should be as Xu Taiping guessed. They were inside a mountain, and this space should be dug out.

"Nian Lan." Xu Taiping said softly.

The top of a box beside Xu Taiping shook slightly, and then Jiufang Indigo's head popped out.

"Are you okay?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.

"I'm fine, what about you?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I'm fine too. Is there anyone in your box?" Jiufang Nian Lan asked.

"Yes!" Let's leave the box first and take advantage of the fact that those people have not come back yet! " Xu Taiping said.

"Alright!"

Not long after, Xu Taiping, Jiufang Nian Lan, and Ah Zi left the box.

At this moment, there was no one around Xu Taiping. There were only four cars, and beyond them, there were a few wooden pillars supporting the ceiling, preventing it from collapsing. In front of Xu Taiping, there was a door, but it was left ajar.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard coming from the other side of the door.

"Hide behind the car!" With an order from Xu Taiping, he hid behind a car with Jiufang Nian Lan and Ah Zi. After that, Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan stuck their heads out of the car and looked at the door.

A group of people wearing the same clothes as them walked over from the door. They were all wearing gas masks on their faces, and there were both men and women.

Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan looked at each other, and the two nodded in tacit understanding.

There were about 40 to 50 people in the group. They arrived at the side of the cart and directly pried open the crates on the cart. After that, every two people formed a group and carried a human body towards the door.

These people's attention was all on the human bodies. They moved towards the door without even looking at the people behind them.

In the blink of an eye, all of their bodies had been taken away.

A few who hadn't yet moved into the human body walked at the back.

Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan quietly approached and then directly used their power to make these people lose consciousness. They successfully obtained their gas masks.

Xu Taiping, Jiufang Nian Lan, and Ah Zi each put on a gas mask, then walked a few steps forward and followed the group.

Because of their gas masks, everyone's faces couldn't be seen clearly, which saved Xu Taiping and the rest a lot of trouble.

Xu Taiping followed the group through a long corridor, and then a huge, modern laboratory appeared in front of him.

Xu Taiping was very surprised because this entire Miao Village looked very simple and unadorned. Suddenly, something modern appeared in this simple and unadorned Miao Village. It looked very out of place.

Dozens of tables were placed within the laboratory. Some of them had people on them, while others had no people on them. There was a room beside the lab with no windows.

The people that transported the bodies placed them on a table, and then Xu Taiping saw someone place the tables with the bodies into a room without any windows.

Xu Taiping narrowed his eyes as he looked around.

Suddenly, Xu Taiping noticed a door in front of the laboratory.

The door had been closed, but now it opened, and a man came out and went in again.

Xu Taiping had seen this person before. He was the person that was following behind Long Xinbu.

In other words, it was very likely that the Runcible Button was behind that door.

"Hey, come over here and help, you guys." Someone suddenly called out to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan looked at each other.

"Let's go!" Xu Taiping said in a low voice.

Jiufang Nian Lan and Ah Zi followed Xu Taiping to the side.

"Come here first and push this man into the room with me." Someone pointed at Ah Zi and said.

"Let me do it." Xu Taiping walked forward and said.

"You go over there with her and get two jars. "I took it into my room." That person pointed to the side and said to Xu Taiping.

"Worm jar?" Xu Taiping gaped for a moment.

"What? Is there a problem?" the man asked.

"No, no problem." Xu Taiping shook his head, then looked at Ah Zi and nodded.

Ah Zi hesitated for a moment, then together with the person who asked her to push him, she pushed a table towards the house in front of them.

"What should we do? Ah Zi, you entered alone. I'm afraid you're in danger? " Jiufang Nian Lan walked over to Xu Taiping's side and asked.

"There shouldn't be anything wrong. We're just going to push the table over. Let's go take a look and see what exactly that bug jar is." As Xu Taiping spoke, he walked to the side, and Jiufang Nian Lan quickly followed.

The two of them arrived at the place that the person from before had pointed out.

There was a huge cabinet here, and beside it were a few guards with guns and knives.

"I want two jars." Xu Taiping said.

A guard pulled open the cabinet.

A plume of white smoke rose from the cabinet. Then, the guard reached into the cabinet and took out two jars the size of water bottles.

The jar was black and you couldn't see what was inside.

Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan each took a can and headed to their room.

"This place should be used to store bugs, right?" Jiufang Nian Lan shook the jar and asked in a low voice.

"Hm!" Otherwise, it would be impossible to call for a bug jar! " Xu Taiping said.

The two of them chatted as they walked to the door.

The door was closed. Xu Taiping knocked on the door, and it was opened.

"Come in." a man behind the door said.

Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan walked in together.

The room wasn't big, only about 20-30 square meters. There were two tables with two people lying on it. At the end of the room was a door, which was connected so it was temporarily hidden.

A middle-aged man dressed in white stood at the front of one of the tables. There were traces of blood on his hands and body.

"Did you bring the bug jar?" The middle-aged man asked.

"It's here!" Xu Taiping handed the jar over.

The middle-aged man looked at Xu Taiping for a second, then opened the jar and took out a red bug that was about the size of a fingernail.

Xu Taiping had never seen this bug before. It had a lot of legs and a very sharp mouth. From the looks of it, it looked like a cockroach from northern China.

The middle-aged man grabbed the bug and closed his eyes.

An invisible ripple spread out from the middle-aged man's body.

The surrounding people all stood still, while Xu Taiping and Jiufang Nian Lan also stood still.

Xu Taiping squinted and scanned the room, and suddenly found that Ah Zi was not in the room.

Xu Taiping frowned.

The man held the bug. At first, it was still struggling, but as the formless ripple appeared, it slowly stopped struggling. In the end, the bug quietly lay down in the man's hand.

A satisfied smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face. After which, he turned to the people beside him and said, "Open your brains."

The men nodded and picked up the tools on the table.

When Jiufang Nian Lan saw this, his body slightly moved and he wanted to step forward to stop it.

Just at this moment, Xu Taiping grabbed onto Fang Nian Lan's hand.

Jiufang Nian Lan glanced at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping shook his head, hinting Jiufang Nian Lan not to act rashly.

"The moment my brain opens, I'll die!" Jiufang Nian Lan said in a low voice.

"No brain, no evidence." Xu Taiping said in a low voice.

Jiufang Nian Lan clenched his fist and looked at the people in front of him. His teeth chattered.

Xu Taiping also looked at those people.

This time, they came to collect evidence, bringing along the person who refined the human Gu. Now that they wanted to open their brains, it was obvious that they wanted to make the human Gu, but... Obviously, since you did not record the entire process, you could not confirm that they were refining the human Gu. Moreover, other than these human bodies, they did not see anyone else, so if they were to rashly make a move here, there was a chance that the other side would hide the human Gu.

Xu Taiping didn't want to see this person die either, but sometimes, sacrifices were inevitable.
