2. No. 49 microbial agent
Qiu Sihai entered the room, went to the closet to dig out the change of clothes, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and got dressed. Walking up to the second floor, the innermost room is a master bedroom, with a hidden storage room that has been converted into a small vault by Liu Zhenjiang. Enter the code to open the ten-centimeter-thick metal door, Qiu Sihai walked in, and there were more than a dozen boxes of gold bars, some jewelry and jade, and antique calligraphy and paintings that Liu Zhenjiang had hidden here. According to Liu Zhenjiang's words, this is called "both soft and hard", jewelry and antiques in the prosperous era, gold in troubled times, and gold is hard currency. Qiu Sihai moved out a large lockbox, which was his personal belongings, opened the box, and there was a set of military uniforms neatly stacked on the upper floor, and under the military uniform was covered with a short knife with a sheath of about half a meter, and twelve black three-edged bladed shuttle darts inserted with a cow belt, the shape of this shuttle dart is different from the traditional shuttle, one side of the edge has a certain arc, the tail shape of the shuttle dart is a round ball, the three sides of the ball correspond to the edge of the blade and the finger belly with a depression, the tip of the shuttle dart is shining with a faint blue light, It makes people shudder when they look at it, and this is not because of the quenching poison, but because of the special metal. Qiu Sihai got this set of short knives and shuttle darts when he was 17 years old, and he can survive until now, this set of cold weapons can be said to be indispensable, of course, he rarely used this set of weapons in the next few years.
Putting down his weapon, in a small compartment of the lockbox, Qiu Sihai took out a glass bottle, the bottle was sealed with a rubber stopper, and a yellow-white label with a worn corner was attached to one side, and the words "No. 49 Microbial Agent" could be vaguely seen in the blurred handwriting on it. This was obtained with this set of cold weapons.
When Qiu Sihai was seventeen years old, he escaped death but fell into the Grand Canyon of the Tibetan Plateau, thinking that his life would end there, but he didn't expect that there was an abandoned secret base hidden here. Here he got this bottle of "No. 49 Bacterial Elixir", there were a total of 9 capsules in the bottle at that time, Qiu Sihai swallowed the first capsule with the heart of death, and experienced a week of torture that was worse than death, this No. 49 bacterial elixir, began to transform his body. Of course, Qiu Sihai was very sure that what he got was not the legendary ancient and peerless elixir, this was a product of science and technology. And he hid in this abandoned base for several months, and he also had a preliminary understanding of where this base came from and who established it.
He was sure that the research done at the base must be inhumane, as evidenced by the fact that in a factory-like room on the base, there was a huge corpse incinerator and hundreds of cells that could hold a dozen people. That's why this base was built in such a secluded place. Even he could be sure that this No. 49 bacterial agent was a failed drug, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed here, he just didn't die after taking it by mistake, and he also gained benefits. And this set of cold weapons was found in a forge by him, and it was obvious that someone had hidden them here. As for the time of the establishment of this base, it can be seen from the map and some scattered papers that it should be during World War II, and the founder of the base is not only Chinese, because in the alleyway of the base, some directions and the door number indicating the purpose of the room on the three characters in addition to Chinese, there are also Japanese and a foreign language that he can't read, he thinks it is very likely to be German or Italian. This is supposed to be a biochemical experiment base for the Axis of Evil during World War II.
Qiu Sihai found a way out of the canyon at the innermost part of the base, behind a huge iron gate there is a tunnel for several kilometers that can pass through large trucks, using an S-shaped ring to offset the slope, this must be a transportation channel, in fact, this is the main entrance of the base. With such a hidden location and huge engineering, you can see how important the research here is. It may have been a place where the top scholars and geniuses of the time gathered, but the research failed after all. If Qiu Sihai hadn't climbed here by chance, this hidden base might have been forgotten forever in the long river of history.
And these experiences made Qiu Sihai feel that God would not let him die simply, and he still had unfinished business, which was also what he could rekindle his fighting spirit, and in the next eleven years, he drank blood and walked out of the active area of the Tibetan Plateau. When he returned to the garrison of the special anti-biological and chemical unit of the Tibetan Youth Military Region, the soldiers here saw him dressed in animal skins and beard like a waterfall, and they all thought he was a wild monkey in the mountains.
He didn't report the secret base to his superiors, he first hid the cold weapons and fungi he got in the mountains before returning to the army station, the previous experience made him know how to protect himself, once these secrets were known by his superiors, he was likely to lose his freedom, which was what he was most afraid of happening. So, he continued to serve at the garrison as a lucky veteran.
And these twelve years of experience, as well as the slow transformation of his body by the fungus, made him show extraordinary combat skills in combat, thus allowing him to be promoted from an ordinary soldier to a company commander step by step in three years. He didn't have much joy or excitement about promotion, but his years of experience in the mountains and monsters allowed him to save more of his comrades from casualties, which filled his heart.
Until the end of the fifth year, the army was reorganized and the troops were deployed. The garrison was taken over by the troops of the new number, and these front-line combat heroes were to return to peace and receive rewards and rewards from the state. And this situation made Qiu Sihai fall into a loss, and he didn't know where to go when he left the front line? What are you going to do? Or maybe he's not ready. Here, although he was still the company commander, he gradually became the dependence of the entire regiment and the backbone of the battle. His familiarity with the terrain and his excellent combat ability and experience reduced the casualties of this team to an all-time low in five years, and the company he led was rightfully a knife company. But that's the end of it. After hearing the news, he found the head of the regiment, Ni Xiangdong, and wanted to apply to continue to stay here. Ni Xiangdong explained to him with admiration and incomprehension that this was impossible. Qiu Sihai has already overserved his service, and in two more years, Qiu Sihai will be thirty-five years old, and even if he has been in the field for twelve years, his body has not been found, and it is impossible to determine that he died, he is still in the service. And with Ni Xiangdong's status at that time, he could not be promoted to battalion commander for a while, because the army at that time was not like now, although he was the regiment commander. There are combat heroes everywhere, but at that time, if you want to be promoted, you don't necessarily rely on combat exploits.
Qiu Sihai was completely disappointed, and in the midst of everyone's shock and incomprehension, he applied to the troops for restoration. He did not want to return to a peaceful society at the mercy of others. Although he didn't know what to do next, he needed to be free, and he needed some time to think about it.
Before leaving, he secretly ran into the mountains, found what had been hidden here, and after obtaining the documents approving the restoration, he quietly left the army himself, without alarming his comrades. Stopping and walking all the way, he first came to Qingwan City in Jiaoshan Province, and he wanted to see the real sea that he had not seen before. The magnificent sea view did not allow him to find the true meaning of life. Without a dangerous environment, there is no need to take risks every day, and be born and die. On the contrary, he could not adapt to the peaceful life he was living now. The guilt that had been hidden gradually crept into my heart again. He started having nightmares again.
When nightmares and insomnia kept him awake at night, he turned on his phone, which had been turned off, and there were several call prompts in it. He only chose to return to a few comrades in the city he wanted to go to next. After a year of tossing and turning, he finally stayed in Tianfu City.
Qiu Sihai stared at the capsules in the small bottle, there were still 6 pills, he had taken two more pills over the years, and there was almost no effect, maybe it was that the years had expired for too long, and they gradually became invalid? Forget it, let's keep it for now! Putting away the fungus agent, Qiu Sihai found a bank card on the edge of the box, which was given to him by Liu Zhenjiang three years ago, and there was a deposit of 10 million Chinese dollars in it. said that he would be given pocket money, but he had not touched the money here. He has little to do with material comforts. Unlike Liu Zhenjiang's mansion and famous car, he is afraid that he will not be able to spend the money. It is said that it is compensation for the five years of hardship he endured on the Tibetan Plateau.
Qiu Sihai picked up the bank card, closed the lockbox, got up and walked out of the vault, closed the door and went downstairs to find a bottle of milk in the refrigerator, he knew that Liu Zhenjiang arranged someone to buy it, although he rarely lived here, but the daily necessities and fresh food in this room have never been missing, and the room is cleaned every day. It can be seen how meticulous Liu Zhenjiang is to him. Qiu Sihai drank the milk in one go, and walked into the fitness room after resting for an hour. In the past five years, Qiu Sihai has never stopped tempering his body, and he is nearly forty years old, and he knows that if he is lazy, his body will become lazy. It's just that the fitness equipment in this room is too light for him, and the equipment used by ordinary people to do anaerobic weight training has become aerobic exercise for him.
At noon, Qiu Sihai went out to have lunch nearby, and returned to the apartment in the afternoon to train for another two hours. Then I took out some high school textbooks left here and began cultural self-study. Although he has a vague memory, he feels that he should have practiced martial arts since he was a child, and then joined the army as a teenager, knowing that he lacks knowledge, and his cultural education level is not as good as Zheng Shuang, Zheng Shuang is a sophomore dropout of the Department of Industrial Design of the famous Xichuan University, as the relationship between them becomes closer and closer, he wants Zheng Shuang to return to the university to resume his studies, this idea he has not mentioned to Zheng Shuang. For Zheng Shuang, he doesn't know how to deal with the relationship in the future. He felt that he couldn't give Zheng Shuang a promise for the future. has always been worried that Zheng Shuang is just a lifesaver when he is with him, after all, he is more than ten years older than Zheng Shuang. He likes to stay by Zheng Shuang's side, which makes him feel very comfortable, not just greedy for physical pleasure. Zheng Shuang is gentle and virtuous, understanding, as if he can see his pain, and when he is with her, he even has a feeling of being slowly healed. "But if it's just for a momentary welcome?" Qiu Sihai's heart tightened, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.
