I haven't been anyone's head for as long as I can remember.

When I was in school, I was a mediocre student, Lin Ying was my middle school tablemate, but the same seat was not equal, and she was the secretary of the Youth League. I belong to the younger brother who is following the gangster.

When he was in college, Wen Tingxu didn't want to see cats and dogs, but in the end he was the leader of the Bishu team - Shen Yu didn't say it, she was not used to being the leader, but because she was good enough, she was elected as the head of the learning department.

After work, I was just an ordinary editor and an ordinary person in the publishing house, and I was also a tinker. Wherever there is a difficulty, the leader will call me over to "mend the pot" - if I can't make up for it, I will carry it myself.

I have become accustomed to listening to people's commands and being submissive, but what I didn't expect was that when the crisis was approaching the city, I was actually ordered to be in danger and entrusted with a heavy responsibility to become the leader of the action team.

He Nengdang clearly saw my concerns, and he patted me on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

"As the old saying goes, don't worry, it's not that difficult to command. In normal times, as long as you have a position and an aura of authority, others will be afraid of you, and you will be what you say, and people will listen to your blind commands.

"But the leader said, now is a critical moment, to break the convention, meritocracy, you were selected by the leader - tonight, this operation, every word you say, we will implement it to the letter!"

He suddenly raised his arm and saluted me.

"Team leader, please give the order!"

The twenty members behind him also suddenly raised their arms and waved their hands, shouting loudly at me.

"Team leader, wait for your instructions!"

I was a little confused, so I had to return the salute stiffly, and then asked, "Don't, what's our mission tonight?" Where are you going......"

……

It's an iron box in the dirt, and it's also a recently built cell for the faceless man.

"Up and down, left and right, are solid soil, this room is taken out of the soil, the surrounding and the top are reinforced with steel concrete, and a layer of steel plates is sealed inside, which is the only exit, with five layers of steel plates, two stone slabs, excavators to demolish have to break teeth!

"We call this the 'Iron Box'! This cell is 'Iron Box No. 1'! "How could you take me down the long staircase to the ground.

We walked into the "iron box", which presumably absorbed the lessons of the last underground command post and redesigned the cell.

The iron box was not large, but it was not small, and four or five rooms were divided into four or five rooms. He took me around a room, and he opened the "Judas Window", and I saw a faceless man in it tightly bound to an iron wheelchair.

He Nengdang pointed to a few holes in the wall.

"It's all a sonic device, it dares to mess around, and it will kill it immediately - Ma Dan, just after catching two alive in the afternoon, we immediately received an email from some animal protection organization, asking us to treat captive non-human creatures well in accordance with the Geneva Conventions! It's really laughing and crying! ”

As he spoke, he took two sets of protective suits from the hands of others.

"Put it on, or it will be uncomfortable for a while."

Although I was puzzled, I still put on my clothes, and he saw that I was wearing a helmet, so he took the remote control and pressed a button.

There was an irritating buzzing sound, and I saw the faceless man in the room struggle in pain for a moment, whimpering in his abdomen.

"New Church...... Under the Altar of Thunder......" it cried out mournfully.

He Nengdang let go of the button and explained to me: "This is how the intelligence is asked, although the means are a bit immoral, but for them who kill people without blinking, we are already very humane, right?" ”

"It's just so humane." I thought of the corpses with broken arms and legs in the old riverbed—when the faceless man tortured and killed them, he didn't even have a trace of mercy.

"Yan Group, this is the transcript of the previous question, do you have anything else to ask?" He could point to a blue button on his helmet and say, "Press this question and it will hear." ”

I looked down for a moment, pressed the blue button and asked, "Where is your holy child?" Is Luo Media Nie Qing? Where is she? ”

The faceless man, who was still wailing just now, suddenly stopped his voice. It turned to this side in a daze, as if "looking" at the door.

How can you press the button appropriately.

"Woooooooooo......oo It's all in the church......"

"What about Shen Yu? Where is she?! ”

"Templar ......" The faceless man uttered the last words in his lower abdomen, then tilted his head back, as if unconscious.

He Nengdang looked at me: "Team leader, I'm right, it's all in the sanctuary under the Thunder Altar." Let's hurry up, if we don't act, I'm afraid that this group of grandsons will shift their positions. ”

……

The name of the Leitan District comes from the Lei Gong Temple, which was called "Altar" before, and the temple enshrined Kui Niu.

As I said before, Kui has one leg, like a dragon and a cow, when the Yan and Huang Emperors fought against Chi You, they once stripped Kui's skin to make a drum, and the beating was like thunder, because Kui Niu was related to the god of thunder.

Lei Gong Temple was built in the Dazu period of the Empress Wu, only 50 years from the year of the destruction of the country in the Western Night, which can be regarded as the same era. I've always wondered why only Kuishan will worship the god of thunder, but later I went to the library to check the local chronicles, and found out the origin of the thunder altar.

According to records, during the five dynasties of the Sui and Tang dynasties, there was often a huge rumbling sound in the mountains here," ...... It smells like thunder, and the winter does not stop. Or it is said that this place is the mountain of ancient Liubo, and the cow dwells. The Empress Wu is a good Fu Rui, and the temple is enshrined in the Great Foot Nian, which is for the Thunder Altar".

There is often loud thunder in the mountains, and it is often the case in winter. From this point of view, the section of Kui Mountain in the Leitan District is really a bit strange.

There were 22 of us in total, and by the time we arrived at Lei Gong Temple, it was already half past nine o'clock in the night. The entrance to the sanctuary where the faceless man confessed was on a hill behind the Thunder Temple.

We touched the hill overnight and found a huge locust tree on the southern slope. He Nengdang took two people around to the back of the locust tree, and sure enough, he found a hidden cave where the faceless man confessed.

The cave is not large, there is a boulder "blocking the door", and the soil under the boulder is fresh and loose, and there are traces of it being moved often recently.

It seems that so far, the faceless man really didn't lie to us. But the people are not of my kind, and their hearts will be different, and their words will not be fully believed.

"Team leader, you give the order, I'll arrange the formation or something." He Nengdang patted his chest and said.

"If you don't use blasting, can you remove this stone?" I asked him.

"No problem!"

"Let's not startle the snake, everyone wear a protective helmet and hold the sonic gun in their hands at all times! Whoever encounters danger must shoot and sound the alarm as soon as possible. Team, when will the big army come? ”

"It's already on the way, and we'll be down the hill in ten minutes."

"Okay." I stood in front of the group and saluted unskillfully.

"I'm stupider than you, so there's nothing to explain."

They were nervous and serious, and they all giggled when they heard me say this

I continued: "In the afternoon, I saw the corpses full of pits and valleys, those corpses with severed hands and feet, all ordinary people who were killed and thrown down by the faceless man, and among them, there were also our teammates. ”

I paused, because I felt my throat tremble a little, my throat a little blocked, and my nose suddenly became sore.

"So, I have only two requirements - to shoot mercilessly when you encounter the enemy! In addition, safety first, everyone has to get me out alive! ”
