Chapter 3679: Powerful Opponent
"I don't know either. Let's get the people out first. The ones outside are dead. There should be some alive inside."
There was no time to be surprised. Xu Qiang had the crew members in the freezer carried outside and turned off the refrigerator.
The outermost ones were frozen stiff and couldn't be pried apart. They were hopeless.
The ones surrounded in the middle didn't freeze to death because they gathered together for warmth, but their situation was also very bad.
Some had severe frostbite and needed to be sent to the hospital for treatment in time. The conditions of the others were relatively mild. In this case, they saved their lives.
Perod went forward to check each body. The bodies were frozen stiff and could only be placed in a place with normal temperature and wait for them to thaw slowly.
From the appearance, there were no wounds on them. I don't know what new discoveries will be made after thawing.
"Seven died, and several people had severe frostbite. Even if they were sent to the hospital, they would probably be amputated."
He found Xu Qiang to report the situation. The 46 people he found were sent to the hospital alive, and no useful information could be obtained for the time being.
Xu Qiang carefully looked at the traces left at the scene. People were trapped in the freezer, thinking that threatening means must have been used.
"To be able to attack Edward's cargo ship, it seems that the person who did it has a very powerful background."
"What I care about is not this. When I came to this place, the door of the freezer was not locked."
Perod was sure that he was the only one in the kitchen. The door of the freezer was open a crack, and cold air was constantly blowing out, which attracted Perod's attention.
"Is there anything strange about this?"
"I mean, the door of the freezer was still open a crack, and the crew members locked in it were not controlled in any way."
Xu Qiang finally understood that this was really a bit strange. A living person was locked in the freezer.
They were not controlled. The door of the freezer was open, but they did not choose to escape. They were frozen to this extent.
Recalling what Xiao Yi said before, Edward and him encountered a big trouble this time.
Even Xiao Yi felt the danger. It would be difficult for him to deal with it with his strength. He didn't expect to encounter it so soon.
"Wait for my master to come and see what he will say."
At this moment, Xu Qiang had no other choice. After a while, Duan Zhisheng arrived at the scene and boarded the cargo ship.
After entering the cabin, he immediately sensed a trace of abnormal breath. Following the source of the abnormal breath, he found the cab.
Xu Qiang and Perod in the cab were waiting for him to appear. After pushing open the door, Xu Qiang pointed at the three people driving the cargo ship.
"Master is in trouble. Look at the three of them. They can't hear what we say at all. They have been doing repetitive work."
Duan Zhisheng walked behind the three people, stretched out his hand to grab their shoulders and turned around.
I saw that the three of them all had a pair of dead fish-like eyes, lifeless, and their faces were withered and dying.
He reached out and touched the breath of several people. The breath was still there but very weak. If it continued like this, I am afraid that they would not be able to escape death.
"Give me a knife."
Xu Qiang pulled out a short knife from his waist and handed it to Duan Zhisheng. I don't know what Duan Zhisheng is going to do.
Duan Zhisheng took a knife and cut a wound on a man's wrist, and blood continued to ooze out of the wound.
Unlike normal people, the color of this blood is very dark, like blood clots. Duan Zhisheng used his fingers to pick up some blood.
After carefully looking at it in front of his eyes, he confirmed the symptoms of these people, put down the short knife and said.
"The three of them are poisoned."
"Poisoned?"
Xu Qiang looked at the three people who were still alive, as if there was nothing to do with the poisoning.
"Are they really poisoned? So now the three of them are alive or dead."
"Not dead but soon, the poison they were poisoned with is not ordinary, the toxicity is not so strong, it will not kill people immediately, but it will make people fall into an illusion."
Duan Zhisheng used simple words to explain to them why these three people looked so strange, and the ship could still dock steadily at the dock.
It was all because of poisoning. The three people were poisoned by the same poison, which would not kill people immediately, but made their consciousness fall into a fictitious illusion.
This illusion was created by the person who poisoned the ship. The purpose was to make the three people dock the ship smoothly. The three people would take corresponding actions according to this will.
"You said just now that these three people are like living dead. That's right, they are not much different from dead people."
Xu Qiang sorted out his thoughts. Someone attacked Edward's cargo ship. First, they sneaked into the ship and killed all the people who were responsible for keeping watch. The bodies may have been thrown into the sea.
Then the crew on the ship were dealt with, and the three people responsible for driving the ship were controlled. All the ammunition on the ship was hijacked.
In theory, it is completely possible to kill the three people driving the cargo ship. There is no need to let these three people, and the ship was driven to the dock. It seems to be unnecessary to do so.
"Master, what do you think this person who did it think? Since he dared to do it, why did he leave a survivor? It was so time-consuming. Could it be that he was also afraid of the Edward family?"
Duan Zhisheng disagreed with what Xu Qiang said. He had his own opinion. This incident happened suddenly and there were too many abnormalities.
"There is only one purpose for doing this, that is to warn us."
"I think so too."
Perod is thoughtful. Since the opponent has such a strong strength, he must have his reasons for doing this.
After thinking about it, only this explanation is the most reasonable. In this way, Xu Qiang is warned. Perhaps what happened today is just the beginning.
"This warning is not only for you, but also for Edward. It is not something that ordinary people can do to dare to do something with the goods of the Edward family."
Duan Zhisheng took out a small bottle from his body. There were antidote pills in the bottle, hoping that it would be useful.
The matter of detoxification still needs to be found by the poison king. After listening to Perod's talk about the strange things in the freezer, Duan Zhisheng made the final conclusion.
This ship has been targeted since it set off. After contacting Xu Qiang and others, those people took action and hijacked all the arms on the ship.
Finally, this method is used to convey a message to Xu Qiang. Duan Zhisheng stood on the side of the ship, and the bloodstains on the side of the ship were clearly visible.
"The people who attacked are all practitioners. In their eyes, ordinary crew members are not worth mentioning at all. They don't even have a chance to fight back."
"Are they all masters like you, Master?"
Xu Qiang asked, Duan Zhisheng nodded, and judging from the traces at the scene, there should be no more than three people who attacked.
