Chapter 239: Temporary Alliance
"What is the world really like?" Tang Anshu broke the silence and looked at the people around him, "I've been thinking about this since I woke up, I even felt that ninety-two years ago, my experience in Cangcheng was just a dream, and I also feel that now I have experienced all this is very unreal, close my eyes and open my eyes again, ninety-two years have passed." ”
Tang Anshu actually didn't express it clearly, but An Wanghai poured him a glass of wine and just smiled.
Probably only An Wanghai can fully understand Tang Anshu's uneasiness at the moment, because ninety-two years have passed, everything has changed, they are just two dead people in history, what can they do after coming to ninety-two years?
Tang She said: "I know it's hard for you to accept, just like me, if I hadn't experienced those cases, I'm afraid I would also think that any parallel worlds, going back to the past and the like are just science fiction stories, but now we all know that these are facts." ”
Tang Anshu asked, "Why do you keep looking for us?" ”
Bai Zhi said: "Because of the instructions of the ancestor Benzoin." ”
An Wanghai was stunned: "Master Zu? ”
Bai Zhi said: "Although we are also called trenches now, they belong to the new trenches, which are different from the former trenches in terms of purpose, and they were later re-established in Hong Kong by benzoin. ”
Tang Anshu's smile appeared in front of his eyes again, and he said after a long time: "Thank you, she ......"
Tang Anshu swallowed back after saying the word "she", after all, it has been ninety-two years, benzoin has long passed away, and even if he is alive, he is still a centenarian.
Bai Zhi said: "She died in Hong Kong, and the will said that the ashes would be buried in Yongcheng." ”
Tang Anshu nodded slightly: "I will go to see her, and there is one more thing, I want to retrieve the bones of several friends." ”
The torturer was surprised: "You mean, aboard the Mary?" ”
Tang Anshu said: "Yes, Lei Maru, Ye Xin and Le Zhengxian, I must retrieve their bones." ”
Tang She asked, "Why did Leng Rui let you go at that time?" ”
Tang Anshu said: "Actually, we and Leng Rui are not enemies, he just wants the child named Guan Kang'an, but to my surprise, when Leng Rui said something to Guan Mochen and Guan Kang'an in private, the two agreed to leave with him, Leng Rui also let go of Lei Maru, Yexin and Le Zhengxian, but because of the urgency of the situation at the time, and the number of places on the ship was not many, the three of them quietly got on the ship and sneaked into the cargo hold." ”
Tang She asked, "What about later?" How did the Mary get into an accident? ”
An Wanghai said on the side: "At first, the wind and waves were calm, nothing happened, we planned to get off the ship when the ship docked in India, and then return to China by land, who knew that something happened and encountered a storm." ”
Tang Anshu continued: "Such a big storm, this is the first time I have seen it, I saw with my own eyes that the waves of dozens of meters were coming towards the ship, and when Wanghai and I were about to go to the cargo hold to find Yexin and them, the ship was wrapped in huge waves, and then we lost consciousness, but before the storm came, there were strange things on the ship." ”
The torturer immediately asked, "Strange thing?" What's weird? ”
Tang Anshu took a sip of wine and said: "Someone turned into a monster, and then changed back, right in front of everyone's eyes, but it's a pity that Wanghai and I didn't witness this incident with our own eyes, but I talked about it when I heard the sailors chatting, because the strange thing happened in the first class, and we were in the third class." ”
According to the sailor, it happened during a meal in the first-class restaurant, when someone heard the woman's scream, and everyone followed the scream, only to see a man opposite the woman turned into a fish-headed human body, and next to him there was a person who fell to the ground, and the upper body of the fallen person was a human, and the lower body of the person turned into a fish.
But in an instant, these people changed back to their original ways, and everyone in the restaurant saw it.
There are only two possibilities for the collective to see strange things, either the strange things do exist, or everyone in the restaurant has been infected with hallucinogens.
Tang She said: "According to Wei Chiran, the descendants of the Howard family who owned the Mary have also become monsters, with human heads and fish bodies, and these forest kickers on the island have become fish heads and human bodies, and the same rumors you have heard, I wonder if this matter has anything to do with the Eye of Rum." ”
The torture technique realized what Tang She was talking about: "You mean the Eye of Lum, that is, the black hole under the sea, is most likely the Yin and Yang Crack that Director Zhan said?" ”
Tang She said: "Yes, it seems that in my world, the Yin and Yang Gap has reappeared, combined with what Ai Qi said, it seems that something big has happened, no matter what, wait until tomorrow Wei Chi takes us to see that Ai Qi." ”
Torture asked, "What do you think of Wei Chiran?" Is it reliable? ”
Tang She shook his head: "Whether it is reliable or not, you can't define it based on one side alone, you know, they have a connection with the lonely army, I haven't been in contact with the lonely army before, so I know that this is a detailed organization, and what they are best at is deception." ”
Tang Anshu said: "Maybe." ”
Tang She looked at Tang Anshu and An Wanghai and said: "One more thing, I have to tell you, it is 2019, that is, 92 years after your era, there is good news that there is no war in our China, and the country has been unified a few decades ago, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a peaceful and prosperous era, but after all, you have been dormant for ninety-two years, many things have to be re-adapted, and you also need a new identity. ”
An Wanghai asked, "Why?" I don't know what it means. ”
Tang She said: "I and the criminal art are now members of the SCA China branch in the parallel world where the criminal art is located, the full name of the SCA is the United Nations Security Council Department of Ancient Sciences, SC is the abbreviation of the Security Council, and A is the abbreviation of the ancient times. ”
As he spoke, Tang She briefly explained to Tang Anshu and An Wanghai what the United Nations is, what the Security Council means, and even the predecessor of the Ministry of Ancient Science.
Tang Anshu and An Wanghai glanced at each other after hearing this, and the two of them had many questions in their hearts, but they didn't know where to start, after all, Zhan Tianya's experience was weird enough.
Tang Anshu pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you mean that Wanghai and I now belong to your department?" ”
Tang She said: "Yes, you have found Ling Jian, and you have also met Ai Qi, and you have been to that ancient tower, we need your help." ”
An Wanghai said: "I still don't understand a lot of things...... Forget it, let's leave it at that. ”
Indeed, it can only be like this, people from 92 years ago come to 92 years later, except for adapting first, other things can only be said later.
The most important thing is that Tang Anshu and An Wanghai haven't figured out what is going on in this world?
But who understands? Maybe only the woman named Aiqi knows.
The next morning, when the sun rose, Wei Chiran was already waiting outside the ship, according to the original deployment, this time to see Aiqi, both sides left some personnel to guard the supplies.
On the Wei Chiran side, he still left Chu Xia as a backup, and Yin Wanmeng and the falcon went.
On the Tang She side, five members of the team were left, and the rest followed Tang She and the torture into the paradise, and after meeting Aiqi, they searched for the Mary on the island and retrieved the remains of Raimaru, Yexin and Le Zhengxian.
Tang She looked at it, counted the number of people, and then said, "There are 14 people in total." ”
Bai Zhi handed over the three sets of radio equipment to Wei Chiran and the others: "Put on the communication equipment, if there is a situation, maybe they will act separately." ”
Yin Wanmeng immediately said: "Even if you act separately, Wei Chiran must be with me." ”
Torture quipped: "Wei Chiran, that's your girlfriend?" ”
Wei Chiran also joked: "No, she is my guardian." ”
Yin Wanmeng didn't pay attention to the two of them, just walked to the rope under the sea cave and climbed up first.
The members of the trench team were indeed well-trained, and after climbing the sea cave, they immediately set up a defensive formation, and then the two spearheads immediately released drones and began to reconnoiter and scan the surrounding area.
Seeing this, Wei Chiran said, "Wow, high-tech." ”
Of course, the most surprised were Tang Anshu and An Wanghai, they were stunned to look at the drone flying in the sky, this kind of thing they had never even seen in a dream, if it was in the past, I am afraid that it would be the magic of a certain sect, right?
An Wanghai looked at the drone: "Wow, is that a bird?" ”
Tang She said: "Drones, which are unmanned small aircraft, are used for reconnaissance, do you see that thing in their hands?" There is a camera underneath the drone that can transmit the footage taken from above. ”
Tang Anshu sighed: "What has happened in the past ninety-two years? ”
Tang She just said: "It's a long story, after I go back, I'll make up for your history lesson." ”
After speaking, Tang She nodded towards Bai Zhi, and after Bai Zhi made a gesture to move forward, Wei Chiran led the way, and everyone walked in the direction of Xanadu.
Until they walked to the mouth of the woods in the paradise, everyone did not encounter any danger, and they didn't even see any animals on the road, which made the torture arts, Tang Anshu and An Wanghai and others very uneasy.
They are worried that the wood plague may have alienated all the animals in this area, because the wood plague itself, the alienated people, and animals will not appear during the day.
The torturer asked, "Didn't you find any living things along the way?" ”
Bai Zhi shook her head and said, "No, I didn't even see a rabbit, and there were no birds." ”
Xingshu looked at Tang She, and Tang She asked Wei Chiran: "What should I do now?" ”
Wei Chiran pointed to the tree and said, "Do you see those leaves?" Which of you can see the words on the leaves? ”
Everyone looked up together, except for Wei Chiran, Saker, Tang She, Xingshu, Tang Anshu and An Wanghai, no one else could see it.
Wei Chi counted the number of people and said, "Only 6 people can enter, and the others can't enter." ”
As he spoke, Wei Chi went up to the tree and took down six leaves and distributed them to the other five people: "Only by holding the leaves can you enter the paradise, the others can only wait outside, and besides, the communication will be interrupted after entering." ”
Tang She looked at Ye Zi, then raised his eyes to Bai Zhi and said, "It's up to you outside, pay attention to safety." ”
Saker immediately said, "I'm staying outside too, I don't want to go in again." ”
Hearing that the falcon would stay outside, Wei Chiran immediately looked at Yin Wanmeng, and the meaning was very simple: look at the falcon and don't let him do anything superfluous.
And because of the falcon's actions yesterday, Tang She and the others also exchanged glances with Bai Zhi, paying close attention to the guy who was a little chattering, but they had to exercise restraint, after all, the two sides were allies now.
