Chapter 334: Painting is not a Demon (2)

"What?" Lady Ice has reached the limit of her ability to think, and she can't understand my words.

"General Gapov?" I shouted out the door.

Gapov pushed the door open and stepped in.

"What I want, are you ready?" I asked.

Gappov nodded: "Yes, it's all ready." ”

"Wait, Mr. Long, I haven't given it to you yet...... Drop-off, please wait a moment, I have arranged the kitchen preparation, and I will be able to deliver it immediately. Lady Ice said eagerly.

Perhaps in her and Gappov's opinion, I was going to the Cheka town to die next, so I needed to see him off. Otherwise, once this place is parted, yin and yang are separated, and everyone will never be able to see each other again.

"Okay." I didn't shirk it, and I didn't want to explain, because my mind was full of Mogao Grottoes murals, like a bundle of old hemp rope entwined with each other, and I didn't have the time to think about anything else.

Mrs. Ice invited me to a small meeting room with a white tablecloth on the battle table, a steak for the main course, a lobster salad for the side, and a bottle of red wine.

"Sit down, I'll pour the wine." Mrs. Ice said.

I sat down smiling, unaffected by the sadness on her face.

What they thought was the "way to death" was a pleasant journey for me to continue to dismantle the secrets. I know that there is always a class of people in the world who can live on a higher track than ordinary people can imagine, and ride the wind and enjoy themselves. Many of the rules of this world are made by that type of people, although they are not the supreme masters of the universe, but they overlook all living beings and are unrestrained, just like the scattered immortals admired by Lao Tzu and Zhuangzi.

In the past, I aspired to be that kind of person, and now, I'm close to those people.

I know that I am constantly improving, no matter what outsiders think and say, I am just me, and I don't have to send each other away.

"Mr. Long, first of all, thank you." Mrs. Bing finished pouring her wine and raised her glass with both hands.

I also raised my glass: "You're welcome." ”

The wine was as red as blood, as if to indicate that the trip was not smooth and peaceful.

I drank it all and smiled at Mrs. Bing: "I know what Madam wants to say, and in order to save everyone's time, I don't need to say it." If I can't come back, I'll write off everything that happened after we met and forget about it. The only thing I can do is to bless my wife, and finally achieve what I want, and my wish will come true. ”

Only in this way can we cut off Mrs. Bing's redundant remarks and use the limited time to the critical moment.

"Huh." Mrs. Bing laughed, "I originally felt a little sad to part, but Mr. Long is so open-minded, I am really ashamed." Well, thank you Mr. Long for your blessings, we should be like-minded people who pursue our ideals, and we will not be sad for short-term sacrifices, nor will we be afraid of a bad future. ”

I don't want to mention the word "sacrifice" too much, only people who have the belief in survival can try to move forward and escape from a desperate situation when others give up.

Mrs. Ice poured three times, and I drank them all.

"That's all ma'am, I'm leaving." I stood up.

Madame Ice also got up, walked around the table, opened her arms, and hugged me deeply.

"Take care." She said.

"Madame, take care, too." I say.

"There's another gift, please accept it." Mrs. Ice said.

She clapped her hands lightly, and a young woman with blond hair walked in through the door and bowed gracefully to us.

"It's her, please take it." Mrs. Ice said.

The girl's appearance is very good, with the heroism of a northern girl, but also not lacking in tenderness and charm.

"It's beautiful, thank you. I've seen so many girls on Hong Kong Island, and she still struck me, but — I've got a good idea, so let her out. I said.

I've never been close to women, and there are so many parties on Hong Kong Island, except for the Perak Hall, I never go to other nightclubs and song halls, let alone deliberately seek pleasure.

It seems that Madame Ice is very familiar with the needs of men, especially those who are about to go to the death.

It's a way to harness men, and it works quite well for most people, but it doesn't work for me.

"Since ancient times, beauties love heroes, and there is such an old saying in China. Mr. Long, I really hope that I can do something for you to express my gratitude. In the same vein, I'm sure Sergeant Joyna thought the same way, she had been to Hong Kong Island before and knew Mr. Long's name, so she was willing to put herself—"

I shook my head lightly and interrupted Mrs. Bing: "Madam, I have already said it, no need. What I want to do, even if the sword and the sea of fire can't stop it; What I don't want to do, just refuse, and there is no need to discuss it anymore. ”

Actually, neither Lady Ice nor Gapov could understand my thoughts, they thought that I was hot-headed to make such a big sacrifice. Therefore, Mrs. Bing tried every possible way to compensate me for peace of mind.

"Mr. Long, I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of meeting us before on Hong Kong Island at a charity dinner. From that time, you have impressed me. The girl spoke.

Lady Ice smiled and withdrew, closing the door with her hand.

"Meet me, my name is Joyna, and I'm the second clerk of the barracks. A year ago, I was part of the Intelligence Department and had been working in Southeast Asia for a long time. She held out her hand to me.

I politely reached out and took her hand.

"I'm willing to do anything for Mr. Long, even if it's anything that doesn't come to fruition." Joyna said.

I shook my head: "Miss, you misunderstood, in fact, I don't need anything. I just told Madame Ice that going to Cheka Town this time is very dangerous, and I don't want to get involved in anything before I go. So, you can go out now. ”

Joyna nodded: "Yes, Mr. Long, I understand what you mean. I came in to tell you one thing, the Cheka town is now classified as a special exclusion zone, the same level as the previous Chernobyl nuclear power plant. Once you get in, even if you make it out alive, you will have to spend the rest of your life under house arrest, permanently deprived of your personal freedom. You can change your mind before you go, and Madame Ice won't force you on. ”

These are all things to be expected, and the superpower can do things without going through any scientific research to classify a piece of land as a forbidden area. In the same way, the state does not need to go through detailed arguments about who is a dangerous person, just a ban.

"I know very well." I say.

Danger always coexists with opportunity, and I chose to go in with careful consideration.

"Mr. Long, don't be too stubborn, something big will happen to you. It is unwise to insist on going your own way knowing that the future is dangerous. Joyna stepped forward and took out a white piece of paper folded in half from her pocket, "This is the ban faxed by the superiors half an hour ago, and the eleven roads leading to Cheka Town have become a state of combat readiness that can only enter but not exit. What does this mean? This means that the area is about to be destroyed by humanity, and any living thing within the boundaries of the exclusion zone will disappear from the world......"

I took the white paper from her hand and gently unfolded it.

It was indeed a one-page official document, signed by the Ministry of Defense of a large northern country, and the content was "Closed Cheka Town Forbidden Zone".

"We can't change anything, and in front of the state, individual power is too small. Mr. Long, you really should listen to my opinion and stop doing stupid things. Joyna said earnestly.

The ban is real, the danger is real, the clouds and bugs are real, and the demon hunters of the Wandering Ghost Country are also real - these special factors converge in the Temple of the Indigo in the northern power, north of the Caucasus Mountains, and are about to trigger a human catastrophe.

As a Jianghu person, I can do a lot of things, because I stand taller and see farther than ordinary people, because I have been practicing traditional Chinese martial arts for a long time, and the higher my ability, the greater my responsibility, and I am destined to come to eliminate disasters.

At this time, if I choose to escape like an ordinary person, then what is the use of me learning this martial art? What is the use of me quitting Hong Kong Island and moving to Dunhuang?

Others can retreat, but Lady Ice, Gapov, and Joyna can all retreat to the safety of the barracks, watch the fire from the other side, and live longer than ordinary people. However, I can't do it, and I can't retreat, this is the time when the people of the rivers and lakes should rush forward against the wind and frost sword. If I don't rush, I will no longer be a hot-blooded young man Long Fei, but a turtle with a shrunken head.

"Thank you, Joyna, for telling me the truth, but I've already decided that I have to go there and stop the situation from getting worse. Now, here only I can do, I have to go. I returned the ban to Joyna and smiled indifferently, without a trace of fear in my heart.

"You-Mr. Long, aren't you afraid of death?" Joyna was in a hurry.

"If you're afraid of death, you won't be a Jianghu person." I smiled and shook my head, "Okay, that's the end of our conversation." ”

I don't know how Joyna goes through her life. All I can do is do my best to do what is beneficial to Gu Qingcheng until the last moment of my life.

"Well, maybe all I can do now is give the lone hero a real hug." Joyna opened her arms and hugged me tightly.

Her lips were red, but I broke free of her arms just in time to keep them from touching my face.

The falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless. Since then, my body and mind have been reserved for Gu Tingcheng, and no other girls can set foot in it.

"Mr. Long, are you really ruthless in rejecting people thousands of miles away like this?" Joyna's eyes were filled with frustration.

She is a beauty, if she takes the initiative to give her arms, I believe that 99% of men will be apprentices, willing to be captured, take advantage of the trend, and never be the unruly Yanagishita Megumi. Unfortunately, I'm the hundredth and the exception. Therefore, I could only sweep her face and refused to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

Joyna stepped back, her cheeks flushed to the base of her ears.

"Sorry, I'll go out first." I walked around her and pulled the door open.

It turned out that Mrs. Ice was standing outside the door and did not go far.

"Alright, alright." I clenched my fist at her, "Ma'am, don't test my patience any more. ”

Lady Bing's expression was very heavy, and she pointed to the door: "That ban...... Seen? ”

Joyna didn't have the guts to leak secrets, so the idea of showing me the ban from her superiors must have come from Madame Ice.

"Yes, I did. It is understandable that such a ban was issued in an extraordinary period. I replied.

"If you cross the Cheka Town's outer defenses, I won't be able to help you." Mrs. Ice said.

I listened to her with the utmost patience, and then called out to Gappov: "General, give me everything I want, I have to go." ”

What Gappov provided me with was a state-of-the-art bulletproof jeep, four-wheel drive, capable of climbing steep slopes at speeds of more than 60 degrees, and the chassis was extremely waterproof, allowing for smooth wading through water even if a third of the height of the car was submerged.

"There are only 3,000 such cars in the country, and although the performance is not as good as the spy car of the British MI6, it is not much different." Gabov proudly told me.

That's not the focus of my attention, the car is just a tool, and it depends on people's brains and skills at critical moments.

Before boarding the car, the staff in the war room suddenly let out a burst of exclamations.

I was the first to rush into the war room and saw everyone standing up and pointing at the big screen with both hands.

The focus of the big screen was on the dark cloud, and now, the dark cloud has taken on a new shape, and it turned out to be a dancing girl who is bouncing the lute. As long as you have been to the Mogao Grottoes, you will be able to see that this dancing girl is the one on the mural of Mogao Grottoes Cave 112, except that the color is black, white and gray, and the rest of the details are extremely expressive.

"How so? How is this possible? Madame Ice followed, and in horror, she covered her mouth with her hands.

Gapov was able to lead the barracks, of course, not without learning and unskill. He immediately leaned over the console and dragged the mouse to bring up the cloud map of the past five minutes and map it onto the big screen.
