"Minister Chen, why did you come here in person?"

Chen Jingrui looked at Li Shaoan and said with a smile: "What? Don't you welcome us old comrades? ”

Li Shaoan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, with you always sitting here, my heart is much more stable, but now I don't know if that door will bring other dangers, I'm worried that you are ...... here."

Chen Jingrui waved his hand: "Don't worry about me, Shao'an, I'm not here to join in the fun, but to really bring you a helper, I believe that with her help, it is bound to get twice the result with half the effort to explore the secrets of this door." ”

"Huh?" Li Shaoan didn't understand.

Chen Jingrui didn't say much, turned around, and led a little boy who followed him to the front.

Seeing this, Li Shao'an's doubts were even worse: 'What can such a young child do? ’

However, Chen Jingrui said very confidently: "This child's name is Luo Bao'er, he is a talented prodigy, I handed him over to you today, you have to treat him well." ”

As he spoke, he put the little boy's hand in Li Shaoan's hand.

Li Shaoan took Luo Bao'er's hand and felt a strange warmth, and this child, who was only four or five years old, was not afraid of life, with a faint smile on his face, he bowed his head slightly, and said obediently: "Uncle Li is good." ”

"Good ......" Li Shaoan was a little embarrassed, wanted to ask for more details, but felt that the occasion was wrong, so he accepted the child first.

When the crowd dispersed, Li Shaoan also arranged for Minister Chen to rest, and then returned to his room.

It was already past seven o'clock in the morning.

Luo Bao'er sat quietly in the room and stared at a cup of tea for a long time.

He didn't look away until Li Shaoan entered the room.

Li Shaoan felt very strange when he saw this little boy, because he was too quiet and didn't look like a child at all.

"Bao'er, uncle wants to ask you a few questions, is that okay?"

Luo Bao'er nodded.

"You ......" was agreed, but Li Shaoan didn't know how to ask, because everything was too sudden, just like the "door" and Wu Shutong's death, everything in the past few days has been so sudden and incomprehensible.

Li Shaoan sorted out his thoughts and asked, "What are your parents' names?" Do I know each other? ”

Luo Bao'er shook her head: "I don't know who my parents are, I was raised by my master." ”

'Orphan?! Li Shaoan frowned: "Your master?" What's his name? ”

"His name is Luo Yuan, an old farmer who lives in seclusion."

'A reclusive old farmer with a child? This ...... Li Shaoan didn't believe that this kid had the ability to help him, even if he was very smart and had an excellent IQ, it would take the acquired carving to become a great tool, but now, ......

"Uncle is suspecting that I can't help you?"

'Uh......' Li Shaoan was stunned and secretly thought: "This kid is still a bit powerful, but so what...... Just a child. ’

So Li Shaoan nodded: "It's not a doubt, but what happened here, don't talk about a child, even the professors who have worked hard for many years may not be able to solve it, these ...... Can you understand? ”

Luo Bao'er stopped talking, he lowered his head, and his gaze fell on the cup again.

Seeing this, Li Shaoan couldn't help but think: 'Am I talking too seriously...... After all, it is the child brought by Minister Chen, no matter how you say it, there should be something extraordinary...... Can...... Ay...... It's better to coax him, it's time to take the child. ’

However, before Li Shao'an could speak, Luo Bao'er spoke: "That door is a gift, a gift from the creator to mankind, just like the fire left by thunder and rain, before it can be used, it is the devil and will destroy everything, but we still learned, just like the innate ability, the beast may slowly find that as long as it is not too close to the fire, it will not be burned, but they will never learn to use fire, and we are different...... So...... Inside this door is a gift, and we must get it. ”

Li Shaoan was stunned, he couldn't believe that these words came from the mouth of a child who looked like a four or five year old.

His calm tone seemed to state a fact, without any speculation or pretense.

After a while, Li Shaoan came back to his senses, his attitude completely changed, and he became very cautious.

"You...... Do you really understand what you're saying? ”

Luo Bao'er smiled: "Is my uncle suspicious of me?" ”

Li Shaoan was not a fool, he sat opposite Luo Bao'er, looked at the kid and said, "Shouldn't I doubt it?" ”

Luo Bao'er scratched her head after hearing this, and said with some distress: "Before I came, Uncle Chen told me that you are a very cautious person, and you will give priority to everything with a skeptical gaze, which is your advantage, but it is also your disadvantage, I didn't understand it at first, but now I seem to understand." ”

After Li Shaoan was silent for a while, he laughed: "Do you really understand this little bit?" ”

Luo Bao'er also laughed: "I don't know, but I feel it, just like these things that are all around you and me now, they have been watching us, observing our every move, to determine if we are eligible for this gift, and now they seem to be disappointed, that feeling...... Some sadness......"

Luo Bao'er put away her smile as she spoke, and put on a sad look.

His emotions were obvious, Li Shaoan frowned, although he still had some doubts in his heart, but this kind of character was indeed his strength, but also his shortcomings, he had to believe that what Luo Bao'er said was true, so that he could deal with the worst situation.

Like they're observing humans......

"They? Who are they? Alien? ”

Luo Bao'er smiled and said nothing, he pointed to the water cup in front of him and asked, "Uncle, what is this?" ”

Li Shaoan replied strangely: "A glass of water, what's wrong?" ”

Luo Bao'er said: "But why did I only see the water, but not the cup?" ”

Li Shaoan felt even more strange, he leaned out, looked at the glass of water carefully, and after confirming that the cup existed, he said: "How come, the cup is here, you see ......" As he spoke, Li Shaoan raised his hand and wanted to pick up the glass of water.

But something strange happened at the moment when this move happened.

"What?!" Li Shaoan caught a blank, or rather...... He didn't get the cup, and his hand just passed through the water.

Luo Bao'er smiled: "I'm right, uncle, there are no cups here, only water, just like this room, it doesn't actually exist, we are sitting on the stones by the salt lake." ”

Li Shao's surprise reached its peak, and at the same time, he realized that some kind of danger was approaching, but Luo Bao'er's words became more and more ethereal, as if he was constantly moving away from him.

'What's going on?' Hypnosis? What the hell is this kid coming from! He?! …… He! ’

Li Shaoan felt dizzy, and the whole world was constantly twisting and sinking in front of his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, but it seems that that kind of pain has tormented Li Shaoan for a few days or years...... Even over the centuries, time has become so long...... But when everything was over, Li Shaoan felt that everything was just a momentary thing.

When he came back to his senses, the wind blew on his body, and the chill made him involuntarily shrink up.

'What's wrong with me...... Li Shao'an had never experienced such a strange thing, he blinked, looked around, and then looked shocked: "I...... Where am I? ’

As far as the eye can see, there is a desolate world, and in the empty world, only the "door" not far away and the cold earth beneath your feet.

Luo Bao'er was still sitting opposite him, but instead of sitting on the sofa, he was sitting on the stone, smiling: "Uncle, do you see the world clearly now?" ”

"See the world clearly? Miscellaneous...... What do you mean? The hangover headache is still tormenting Li Shaoan, but it is much better than before.

Luo Bao'er said softly: "If there were no human beings on the earth, the world would be what you are looking like. ”

"Nothing?" Li Shaoan frowned, he looked around, and couldn't help sneering: "There are no human beings, is it this feeling of being deserted?" ”

Luo Bao'er shook her head with some disappointment: "Just because I can't see my own figure, I classify this kind of world as barren...... Sure enough, we don't deserve this gift yet......"

After that, without waiting for Li Shaoan to speak again, Luo Bao'er raised her hand and waved it lightly, and then Li Shaoan felt that the world was spinning again.

When he woke up again, Li Shaoan found that he was still sitting in the room, but there was no child in the room.

Just when he was wondering, the assistant pushed the door in: "Director, Minister Chen, they have arrived!" ”

Li Shaoan was stunned: "Minister Chen? Hasn't Minister Chen already arrived? ”

The assistant was also stunned, obviously didn't understand what Li Shaoan was saying, he grinned, and then said, "Uh...... Yes, Minister Chen's plane has just arrived, do you want to go and greet him? ”

Just arrived?

Li Shaoan was completely confused, he clearly remembered that he had arranged for Minister Chen to rest in the camp, how could he ......

……

"Minister Chen? You...... Why did you come here in person? ”

Chen Jingrui replied with a serious face: "This time the matter is not trivial, the top is very concerned, I won't come down to sit for you, you can handle it alone?" ”

Li Shaoan was taken aback, he clearly remembered that Minister Chen was smiling in his memory, but now he ......

"No, no, Minister Chen, I don't mean anything else, it's just that the situation is unknown now, and no one dares to guarantee that the door will bring other dangers, so ......"

"You don't have to worry about that, you just sit down and do your part." With that, Chen Jingrui walked straight to the camp.

Li Shaoan froze in place, he didn't realize who he had angered, because at the moment he was still thinking about where the child was?

Why didn't he reappear?

Is he in the crowd?

Li Shaoan hurriedly looked over one by one, but until everyone entered the camp and the plane moved to the parking position, Li Shaoan did not see the child.
