A few days later, the coal boss and Yan Ran were sent to Shenfu University first. Someone put a ring around their necks with the kind, name, and number written on it. They were then placed in cages, taken through the green channel from Shenzhou International Airport, to the cargo hold of a flight from Shenzhou to Auckland, and were transported with other animal and plant samples.

When the coal boss learned that it would take 12 hours to fly from Shenzhou to Auckland, he had been muttering before setting off that not eating for 12 hours was the cruelest punishment in the world.

Although there is some food in the cage, it is all food that has been strictly inspected and can be brought on the plane. The coal boss thought that even if he starved to death, he would not eat such a thing. He is absolutely unwilling to compromise on this.

On the contrary, he was sound, did not show any anxiety or worry at all, obediently entered the cage, and fell asleep. It's not that she's happy with the food, and while it's true that she's not a picky eater, the main reason is that she's not hungry.

Since I went to Xia Wenyuan's house with Aoki, I don't know if it's because the Xia family's cat food is too nutritious, or because I swallowed that shadow in Xia Wenyuan's dream, anyway, I've not been too hungry these days, and I just can't wake up all day.

The plane took off, the roar of the engines drowned everything out, and no one heard the screams coming from the cargo hold:

"W-that's noisy! Why is the airplane so poorly silent? I can't hear you! What am I talking about? Why can't I hear myself? Oh, I'm a little dizzy! ”

"Oh, is the sky turning? Sound! Do you feel dizzy? ”

"Oh my God, it's finally gone! Well, it's a lot smoother now. This is...... Already in the sky? ”

"Hey, sound, we're in heaven!"

Snore...... Snore......

"Hey, sound, can you hear me?"

Snore...... Snore......

"Hey, silly cat! Don't sleep, get up and eat dried fish! ”

Snore...... Snore......

"Why don't you turn on the lights? Hey, I bought the ticket, do you treat the passengers like that? Do you want me to spend twelve hours in the dark? My eyes won't be able to adapt to the sun, and if I go blind, you'll be responsible, quack! ”

"Boeing's designers are stupid! Why isn't there a window in the baggage compartment? Oh, I'm going to open the window, I'm going to see the gods! ”

"God——, God——, are you there? Taishang Laojun called you to a meeting! ”

……

The coal boss left, and Aoki was originally a little worried about the safety of Bishenghua, but at this time, Zhao Pengcheng sent him a message through the ghost:

All lurking, waiting for orders, there is a major operation.

This is the first time that Zhao Pengcheng has delivered a message to Aoki after escaping from prison. In fact, before Zhao Pengcheng escaped from prison, his upline Howard had already hinted at him, and this time it was equivalent to confirming it.

Aoki remembered that the shadow in Xia Wenyuan's dream was hidden, and he didn't invade Xia Wenyuan again, so he should have received a similar latent order, and the time was right. However, its parasitism has not yet succeeded, and how did it receive the command? If they have other special contact methods, will everything Aoki did in Xia Wenyuan's dream already be known to the other party?

Judging from the news sent by Zhao Pengcheng, the focus of what he wants to say should not be the matter of "all lurking", but the second half of the sentence - there are major actions. But he didn't say what a major action it was, and it seemed that he couldn't find out.

Aoki remembered Zhao Pengcheng's other life, and the dream society quickly took control of the world in the next few years, forcing the scientists led by Professor Mei into a rebellion organization. From the perspective of time, it is likely to be related to this "major operation".

Aoki knew that he had to be fast, and he must not let their actions succeed, and he could not allow the planet to be overrun by another group of consciousnesses from nowhere.

However, Zhao Pengcheng's news made him a little relieved, since "they" are all lurking and on standby, they must not be able to hurt the people around them.

To be on the safe side, he called Hou Biao back before leaving. At this time, it no longer makes much sense for Hou Biao to go and fight those killers, it is better to come back and concentrate the reliable forces of the entire security company and protect Bi Shenghua and Professor Mei.

Hu Xing and Yao Jingjing don't need much protection, one is a police officer, the other is in a security company, and it is difficult for ordinary people to attack them. Moreover, they already have a certain degree of self-preservation ability in the degree of awakening in the dream, and it is not easy to violate them from the dream.

At this point, Yao Jingjing's progress was somewhat unexpected by Aoki. Not only did she quickly master lucid dreaming, but her mental strength also grew at a very considerable rate. Aoki judged that she had surpassed the medicine woman he had met in southern Yunnan, and if she followed this progress, it wouldn't take long to reach the level of the cuckoo.

Despite Yao's hard work, Aoki attributed it to her talent. Who called her the great-niece of the old lady! You must know that this old lady, even Aoki thinks it is unfathomable.

……

After saying goodbye at the airport, Aoki and Bishenghua returned to Liuying Lane. As they passed the big willow tree, they both stopped at the same time.

When Aoki looks at the willow tree at this moment, he always feels that it is a little different from the past. He vaguely felt that this tree had a different vitality from other trees, and felt its courage and perseverance to stand tall in the wind and rain.

It stood like a mother, watching the child return from the storm.

The children will not see their mother's complicated eyes and sincere love, until they are about to go far away and know that they have experienced the hardships of life, they will remember that the wind and rain in the past turned out to be their mother for themselves.

And at that time, the mother was already old.

The willows in this willow camp alley are all its children. But they don't travel far, they don't leave their mothers. At this moment, only Aoki will give birth to a lot of emotion, inexplicably, like a piece of wood.

It was a sunny day, but the temperature was as low as the willow branches. The notes were covered with yellow leaves that had not yet withered after being swept away by the autumn wind, and some of the yellow leaves still had a trace of greenery in them.

It is that little bit of green hidden in desolation, blooming on the streets in the cold winter, like a little green ink accidentally thrown off by an angel when painting, although it is swept over and over again by the cold wind, it can never be completely erased, but spreads out in the blue of the sky, and becomes the color of immortal life.

Bishenghua casually broke off a small section of branches, looked at the remaining greenery on it, and said, "Look how good this willow tree is, it can live wherever it is inserted." ”

Aoki looked up at the willow and said, "It has an attachment to color and an insistence on life, so it can live well." ”

Bi Shenghua smiled: "Have you become a philosopher?" Sure enough, Zhu Zhechi is close to him, and he has been with the professors recently, and his knowledge has grown a lot! ”

Aoki coughed lightly, looked at Bi Shenghua very seriously and said, "You know, I ......"

Bi Shenghua hurriedly shook the willow branch in front of him with the willow branch in his hand, and said, "Forget it, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it when you come back." ”

Aoki nodded and said, "Okay, then you wait for me to come back." ”
