"Minister Qiao, are you sure that the person who appeared at Five Dragons Mouth is Zhou Wen?" Shen Yuchi asked with a frown as he looked at the report sent by Qiao Siyuan.
"His age and appearance have been confirmed. He looks very similar to Zhou Wen," Qiao Siyuan answered respectfully.
"It's normal for young people of this age to look similar," Shen Yuchi said.
"You're right, Director-General. However, I still think that the young man who appeared at Five Dragons Mouth is Zhou Wen," Qiao Siyuan said.
"What's the basis?" Shen Yuchi asked.
"It's still under investigation. Nothing for the time being, but my intuition tells me that it's Zhou Wen," Qiao Siyuan said with certainty.
Shen Yuchi wasn't angry at Qiao Siyuan's seemingly irresponsible words. In fact, in their line of work, intuition was sometimes very accurate.
Intuition wasn't just a blind guess, but a keen sense of the rules of events developed after experiencing countless incidents.
"If that young man is Zhou Wen, why do you think he went to Five Dragons Mouth? Where is his next target?" Shen Yuchi said after some thought.
"According to the intelligence, Zhou Wen has been seen around Luoyang from time to time recently. However, I think this should be a smokescreen set up by the An family to cover for Zhou Wen. According to this inference, Zhou Wen's goal doesn't seem to be as simple as staying at Five Dragons Mouth for a period of time. "
Qiao Siyuan paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm guessing that Zhou Wen won't return to Luoyang next. According to his current route, he should be heading north. I think it's very likely that he will come to the Imperial Capital."
"There are so many cities in the north. How do you know that he will definitely come to the Imperial Capital?" Shen Yuchi frowned.
"I don't have any evidence yet, but it's best to make some preparations for such matters," Qiao Siyuan said.
"That's true. However, Zhou Wen has already matured. Even without the An family's protection, it won't be easy to touch him," Shen Yuchi said after some thought.
"Why don't you discuss it with the Xia family? Perhaps they are also interested in Zhou Wen," Qiao Siyuan said.
Shen Yuchi naturally understood what Qiao Siyuan was referring to. He glanced at Qiao Siyuan and said meaningfully, "Then make a trip to the Xia family for me and tell them about this."
"Yes, Sir." Qiao Siyuan ordered.
After Qiao Siyuan left, the woman whom Shen Yuchi addressed as "Button" walked out. As Shen Yuchi looked at the documents, he said, "What do you think?"
"Qiao Siyuan seems to pay more attention to Zhou Wen than to Wang Mingyuan's other disciples," Button said.
"Qiao Siyuan seems to be paying more attention to Wen than Wang's other disciples," Button said.
"I don't know. I've investigated him. Just as you said, this person is too simple. His life seems to be nothing but work. He had no obvious hobbies, no wife, no children, no relatives or friends, not even a lover. He doesn't eat, drink, or gamble. It's hard to imagine how he did it at his age and status, "Button said.
"Maybe he's a workaholic," Shen Yuchi said.
"Qiu Ye is Siyuan's Wen is a Qiu Qiu. s Qi." s. "Yuchi Yuchi. Siyuan Wen.
"Then why do you think Qiao Siyuan mentioned the Xia family?" Shen Yuchi continued.
"There's no way to deduce it for the time being. However, according to what I know, in recent decades, there have been many young geniuses who have died young. They seem to be related to the Xia family. If the Xia family knew that Zhou Wen had come to the Imperial Capital, perhaps you wouldn't need to worry about it," Button said.
"Then let's take a look first." Shen Yuchi lowered his head and continued working.
Zhou Wen traversed mountains and saw forests everywhere. Although the dimensional storms had brought a huge disaster to humanity, Earth had been revitalized. It wasn't like before, where there were buildings made of steel and concrete everywhere.
"What are you doing? It's not that way. We're going this way. " When they reached a fork, Zhou Wen should have taken the left, but the antelope actually walked to the right.
The antelope didn't care. It bit the corner of Zhou Wen's shirt and walked to the right, forcing him to follow.
What's there? Why do you have to walk this way? Zhou Wen found it odd. In the past, although the antelope was very willful and cold, it had never interfered with Zhou Wen's actions.
This time, the antelope had taken the initiative to get him to change directions. This left Zhou Wen somewhat puzzled.
The antelope didn't answer as it continued walking ahead as though it hadn't heard Zhou Wen.
If Zhou Wen stopped and didn't leave, it would come over and pull him back, preventing him from turning back.
Zhou Wen studied the map. There was originally a road on the right, but because there were too many dimensional zones and many break-out creatures had appeared, it had been abandoned due to the danger.
Zhou Wen felt that there was definitely something going on, but he was somewhat curious. He wanted to know what the antelope was up to, so he followed behind it.
However, Zhou Wen summoned Six-Winged to prevent any accidents.
He hadn't drawn the Substitute Talisman yet. When he had the time, Zhou Wen had drawn quite a number, but unfortunately, he hadn't succeeded. The success rate of the Substitute Talisman was just too low.
The originally wide road had many branches and roots on it due to the invasion of plants on both sides. There were also green vines crawling all over it.
The trees on both sides of the road were extremely tall. The treetops were squeezed together, making it difficult for Zhou Wen to see the sunlight. Walking on the road felt no different from walking in the forest.
As he walked, Zhou Wen suddenly felt that something was amiss. There were trees everywhere, but in this huge forest, there wasn't a single bird or insect. The entire forest was terrifyingly quiet.
Zhou Wen had already expanded Truth Listener's range to its limits, but he still didn't discover a single animal, not even an ant.
How can this be? Zhou Wen couldn't help but frown slightly as he secretly became vigilant.
However, the antelope remained oblivious as it continued walking ahead. The chick stood on Zhou Wen's shoulder and looked around curiously.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Wen asked the antelope in front of him.
The antelope couldn't speak at all. Even if it could, it had no intention of answering Zhou Wen. Just as Zhou Wen was hesitating if he should continue following it, the antelope suddenly left the road and burrowed into the grass beside him.
The grass was dense and there were many vines coiled together. After the antelope burrowed in, it immediately disappeared. Thankfully, Zhou Wen had Truth Listener and could see the situation in the grass clearly.
After the antelope burrowed into the grass, it kept walking in and soon arrived at an empty space.
The empty space was rather strange. There were dense plants all around, but there was a small area that was barren. It was as though it had been sprayed with a powerful herbicide.
