Embers Ad Infinitum

To please "Mandala"? Long Yuehong, who had already gotten out of the car and pretended to help Shang Jianyao, was shocked when he heard this, but she felt it was reasonable.

The "Old Tune Group" had already known before that many nobles in the "Prime City" secretly believed in "Mandala" and were members of the "Holy Desire" sect.

Phelps' answer and the secret gathering at Old K's house only confirmed this point again.

Long Yuehong subconsciously turned around, glanced at the team leader and Bai Chen, and found that their expressions had not changed.

That's right... At this distance and at this volume, they would definitely not be able to hear it while sitting in the car... Moreover, the team leader himself had poor hearing... While Long Yuehong understood something, she set her sights further away. The place.

At the end of the street, a gray-robed monk riding a dark motorcycle seemed to have a more solemn expression.

"Does desire have a spirit?" Shang Jianyao pretended to be suddenly enlightened and asked with a smile, using a teaching from the "Holy Desire" sect.

Phelps seemed to have found a colleague, showed an ambiguous smile, and tapped his crotch:

"There are no barriers between people."

"How was it? Did you have a good time last night?" Shang Jianyao, who confirmed that the other party was a follower of the "Holy Desire" sect, asked curiously.

Phelps recalled:

"It's great. Everyone is boiling with their own desires, letting go of all barriers between each other, and opening the door to their own souls. That kind of experience cannot be described in words, plus all kinds of holy communions, holy oils, and holy medicines And with the help of rituals, I wake up again and again and transcend again and again.”

As he spoke, he yawned:

“I’m just very tired the next day, and maybe I don’t want to do anything like this again for a week.

“But at the end of the party, when all my desires were burning and my body was extremely exhausted, my mind was at peace, I no longer had any worries, and I truly felt the spirituality that transcended everything.

"This is 'Mandala'."

At the end of the sentence, Phelps patted his crotch reverently.

The words of indulgence were so fresh and refined... Long Yuehong almost raised his head and looked up at the sky.

"What is the Holy Communion this time?" Shang Jianyao asked enthusiastically.

Phelps' expression suddenly became vivid:

"What else could it be? Marijuana, and similar synthetic products."

Shang Jianyao nodded and said sincerely:

"I think it won't be a few years before you all get to see Mandala."

"May your desires be fulfilled." Phelps felt that Shang Jianyao's "blessing" was very touching, and he replied with a smile on his face.

After chatting for a while, Shang Jianyao and Phelps agreed to repair their own vehicles and then waved goodbye.

Back in the "rented" car, as Bai Chen stepped on the accelerator, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong briefly repeated the conversation they had just had.

During this process, Shang Jianyao tried to ask Long Yuehong to "play" Phelps, but Long Yuehong felt that it was too shameful to take photos of his crotch from time to time and rejected his proposal.

Jiang Baimian listened quietly and sighed:

"It's really a carnival party of the 'Holy Desire' sect..."

"It seems that Old K is one of their points of contact with the aristocracy."

"But it won't be all." Bai Chen added in a rather determined tone.

Jiang Baimian glanced at her, withdrew his gaze, and said thoughtfully:

"Since Old K is a member of the 'Holy Desire' sect, then 'Garibaldi's' request for help seems a bit strange.

"It's normal that he didn't forget to bring the radio transceiver in his hurry, but after entering Old K's house, he wasn't discovered for so many days, isn't he very lucky?

"Old K's house often holds carnival parties like this, and there will be no shortage of awakened members of the 'Holy Desire' sect. As long as they have the level of the 'Ocean of Origin', it is not difficult to sense that there is a human being hidden somewhere in the house. Consciousness, 'Garibaldi' is not an awakened person, so he cannot cover it up on his own.

"Even if those awakened people are addicted to the boiling of desire and are not vigilant enough about their surroundings, they should be able to notice it when they usually come to Lao K's house. Unless they want to keep it secret, people from the 'Holy Desire' will not take the initiative to visit during carnival parties. Old K."

Bai Chen, who was driving, shook his head:

"It doesn't look like it. Many of the nobles who participated in the rave party are just ordinary people. They have at most undergone some genetic modifications and are less likely to be able to keep the secret."

"Yeah, even though they closed all the curtains, the party itself was still very obvious. People in the surrounding neighborhoods would be more or less aware of it. They just don't know what kind of party it is. This can easily arouse suspicion." Long Yuehong agreed.

Shang Jianyao also smiled and said:

"It makes no sense that it only took us one day to find out the truth. Others didn't find out for several years."

"Well, for those who pay attention to old K, this may be a semi-open secret." Jiang Baimian nodded gently, "So, could 'Garibaldi's' request for help be a trap?"

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong did not answer her because this was possible but not certain.

Shang Jianyao said seriously:

"I don't know what kind of trap they will prepare."

Jiang Baimian originally wanted to discuss this topic in depth and make a detailed analysis, but then thought that this might reveal many secrets of his team, so he gave up the idea.

After all, she couldn't be sure whether Zenaga was using "other minds" to monitor at this time.

She looked at the air in front of her and said in a normal voice:

"Zen Master, this matter involves the 'Holy Desire' sect, which is more complicated and difficult than we thought. I wonder what you think. Are you asking us to return to the temple first, and then consider how to save people later? Or are you willing to watch us do something?" Probe, identify opportunities, and control the scale of conflict?”

Jiang Baimian didn't know what the relationship between the "Crystal Consciousness Sect" and the "Holy Desire" sect was, but judging from the fact that one could build temples and preach openly in the Ming Dynasty, while the other could only sneakily influence some nobles, they should not be in the same camp.

After more than ten seconds, Chan Naga's voice echoed in the hearts of several members of the "Old Tune Group":

"You can go take a look first."

"Okay." Jiang Baimian did not hide his joy.

It seems that the "Crystal Consciousness Sect" doesn't like the "Holy Desire" sect too much!

Bai Chen let out a breath and turned the vehicle towards the Red Giant Wolf area.

They didn't go to repair the car first, but came directly to Masgar Street and parked opposite the main entrance of old K's house.

Jiang Baimian considered it for a moment and asked tentatively:

"Zen Master, do you think our action this time is dangerous?"

She remembers that one of Zenaga's abilities is "prophecy."

This time, Zenaga waited nearly a minute before answering. It took so long that several members of the "Old Tune Group" thought that the other party had just withdrawn his "other mind access" and did not "hear" the question.

Zenaga said calmly:

"If we strictly follow the planned plan, there won't be any surprises."

This "prophecy" is really a bit ambiguous...Accident, what is an accident? Jiang Baimian muttered in his heart.

Jianchan Naga did not explain further. She turned sideways and nodded to Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong:

"Act according to plan."

The first step in planning is to wait and watch.

After confirming that there were not many people in the house, and that Old K and his confidants, entourage, and bodyguards were most likely out for work, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong put on a set of gray canvas clothes.

There is a line of words in Honghe language written on the chest of this piece of clothing:

"The Original City Electrical Maintenance Company"

Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong got out of the car, went straight to the preset place, and snapped a wire.

The electricity to Lao K's house was suddenly "cut off".

A few minutes later, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong knocked on the front door of Lao K's house.

Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen also got out of the car and walked over.

The front door of Old K's house was quickly opened, and the housekeeper, who was wearing formal clothes and had gray temples, asked suspiciously about the people outside:

"You are?"

The disguised Shang Jianyao responded immediately:

"Isn't it obvious?

"look:

“There was a power failure in this neighborhood;

“We are wearing the clothes of an electrical maintenance company:

"so……"

Old K’s housekeeper suddenly realized:

"Is there something wrong with us?

"No wonder there was a sudden power outage."

He no longer had any doubts, moved out of the way, and allowed Shang Jianyao and others to enter.

——Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen also put on the uniforms of electrical maintenance personnel.

The four people from the "Old Tune Team" didn't waste any time and went straight to the second floor to go to the corner room where "Garibaldi" mentioned.

Before he really got close, Jiang Baimian slowed down and looked sideways at Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao nodded:

"Two lanes of human consciousness."

——They didn't know the specific building layout before. On the first floor, they couldn't determine which room was their target, and there were humans in other rooms.

Besides, there is no contradiction between the two human consciousnesses and "Garibaldi" hiding inside. Maybe it was just a servant cleaning, but the hiding person was not found.

Immediately afterwards, Shang Jianyao added:

"There should have been three before."

Uh... the four members of the "Old Tune Group" looked at each other, and with the help of Zen Naga's "guarding", they quickened their pace and arrived in front of the corner guest room.

Jiang Baimian reached out and turned the handle, pushing open the door. Long Yuehong, Bai Chen and Shang Jianyao dispersed, getting ready for the attack.

There were two people in the room. A black-haired man was lying on the bed. He looked pretty but looked rather haggard. At this time, he had his eyes closed tightly. He didn't know whether he was asleep or in a coma.

He is exactly the "Garibaldi" that the "Old Tune Team" wants to deal with.

Another man is sitting on the single sofa. He has dark blue eyes, obvious nasolabial folds, and neatly combed hair with a small amount of silver strands hidden. He is Old K. Colenza.

Next to Old K, you can see that the window in the back alley is fully open.

Seeing this, Shang Jianyao asked curiously:

"Where's the ambush?"

Old K's expression was a little dull and complicated. He was silent for several seconds and said:

"Jumped out of the window and ran away."

This... When Long Yuehong was confused and amused, Old K added:

"One of her abilities is her 'sixth sense'."
