There was some strange taste mixed in the calm, and Wu Qi only had one feeling now, and that was pain.

The roof is a chandelier, which is like a pot lid and the lampshade limits the light to the middle of the room, Wu Qi has a few circles of gauze wrapped around his head, and he doesn't dare to shake his head too hard, so he can only turn a little and then lean over to level it with his eyes. After such a long time, Wu Qi still didn't slow down, any movement could scare him, he was trembling and lying on the bed but couldn't sleep, the warm air around him made him not very comfortable, he always felt that someone walked by, but his eyes were very big but he couldn't see anything.

"Knock knock!" was stunned when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, and Wu Qi, who was frightened, almost didn't jump up, but the door had been pushed open and someone walked in, and when he walked to the side of the bed where Wu Qi was lying, he saw who was coming, Wu Qi exhaled heavily, nodded to the visitor with a wry smile and called: "Brother Li." ”

Li Huan changed his outfit, although it looked a bit like a military uniform, but it was different from his military coat. The color of Li Huan's clothes is gray and white, the collar and cuffs of the lapel corset are painted with strange patterns, I feel very solemn and spiritual, and I compare it with him, it is simply a world of difference, the military uniforms of their troops are similar to the hand-sewn of rural village women, usually I feel very good, but I can't compare, this is really more people than people have to die and goods have to be thrown.

Wu Qi saw Li Huan sitting on the side and looking at him, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw that the sullen melon also came in, but he leaned against the door with a cold face and crossed his chest with his hands and did not come.

"Are you alright?" Li Huan spoke at this time.

Wu Qi nodded reluctantly and said, "It's okay, it's just a little dizzy, Brother Li, you are too ruthless, I thought I was going to die." ”

But before Li Huan could speak, the sullen melon at the door snorted and said, "That's stupid, you can't tell such a fake thing." In the future, you don't know how you died, so you should go home and farm. Wu Qi didn't know what to say when he said this, so he had to laugh bitterly.

"Why are you everywhere? Get out! Li Huan didn't look back and scolded in a low voice.

Li Huan's words were surprisingly effective, and after saying yes with a cold face, he turned around and left, but he didn't close the door. Instead, there was a gap, and Wu Qi could hear the heavy footsteps of the sullen gourd walking farther and farther, he was a little strange about the attitude of the sullen gourd, thinking that he didn't mess with him? Or comrades-in-arms, why do they talk coldly to each other every time? If you don't understand, go see Li Huan.

And Li Huan looked at the crack in the door slightly, then got up and walked over slowly, reached out and grabbed the armrest for a while before closing the door, sighed lightly and walked back to the bed, dragged a chair over and sat down facing Wu Qi, the two looked at each other for a long time and no one spoke. In the end, Li Huan laughed a few times and said, "How does Qi'er feel in the army." ”

Wu Qi didn't expect Li Huan to suddenly ask this, so he grinned and said, "It's good, I've seen it for a long time." ”

Li Huan nodded and said: "Not only has I seen it for a long time, but it is completely two people from the hairy boy in Henan at the beginning, I almost let you fall down, okay boy!" It's so much better than those older brothers in your grave team! ”

"Brother Li, I just now" Wu Qi hurriedly stood up and wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Wu Qi raising his hand.

"Needless to say, I know that. In fact, when I told Lao Wu that I had a place, I knew that he could let you come. And we also need you to be a witness to certain events. But this is only my personal wish, and I am afraid that I will have to go through some tests if I want you to join the team. It's almost okay this time, and you're generally qualified. ”

Wu Qi glared at him and said in surprise: "Qualified?" So I'm doing it all right? ”

Li Huan shook his head with a smile, took out a cigarette from his pocket and held one in his mouth, but after looking up at Wu Qi, he put down the cigarette again, sighed and said, "What you did is completely different from what we originally envisioned." It's even a little ridiculous, but if you're serious, it's the deadliest thing about you making a fire in the woods, and you're still asleep, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I hear it. ”

Wu Qi slowly lowered his head as he listened. He muttered, "So you've been staring at me, so I'm not qualified." ”

"No, although some of your subsequent actions made me feel a little potential, at least you are not afraid of death, my people must have this characteristic, because the things we solve are usually not explained by common sense, if there is a very special situation at that time, someone is afraid to run away that will kill people, so you only meet this point, and the standard we set at the beginning is still much worse, but who made me the captain?" Li Huan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly and laughed briskly.

Wu Qi looked at him in surprise, recalling what Li Huan had just said, thinking that this wasn't tossing him to play? Suddenly, his face turned blue, his chest hurt again, and he said with some complaints: "Brother Li, your test is a bit too serious, right?" Why are you really fighting? ”

Li Huan shook his head and said with a smile: "You kid still lacks practice, your eyesight is too poor, I only used three points of strength to hit you a few times, if I am allowed to move seriously, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk like this." ”

Three-point strength? Wu Qi's heart was worried when he heard this, these three points were about to kick him to death, how many times could he stand it with all his strength? He looked up and laughed bitterly with Li Huan a few times, but in a blink of an eye, he thought of what he had encountered before, so he smiled and said to Li Huan: "Brother Li, you are a little scary, you scared me miserably in that passage, why did you pretend to be so similar, I thought the dead man was following me!" ”

But when Li Huan said this, his face turned cold, and he said a little mysteriously: "Qi'er, don't you feel that something is wrong with this place?" ”

Wu Qi nodded honestly and said, "It's a little weird, I always feel that there are people around me, and I can hear footsteps, but there is nothing." ”

Li Huan stood up at this time, walked to the table on the side, picked up the military hat placed on the table, looked at the cockade in front of him and said slowly: "This is my job, looking for these mysterious things everywhere for the sixteen institutes behind me, and the ultimate purpose is also to protect the country from being violated and shamed, you should be able to understand this duty as a soldier, right?" After Li Huan finished speaking, he turned back to look at Wu Qi.

Wu Qi is also a soldier now, and being a soldier is to protect his family and the country, so naturally he understands that he will sacrifice for the country when necessary, so he nodded and understood. Li Huan walked over with a smile, put a delicate military hat beside Wu Qi, looked at Wu Qi's eyes and asked him with some sternness, "Qi'er, are you ready?" I may die at any time, and no one will know after death, because we can only store in the dark, and can never be put in the light, but this is a supreme honor in itself, and we can experience things that ordinary people will never see in a few lifetimes, are you willing to take this hat to serve as a soldier in the Sixteenth Institute? ”

Wu Qi looked at the gray military hat in his hand, and said with a little doubt: "Brother Li, what are you doing?" Can I do it? ”

Li Huan leaned back in his chair a little lazily, this time he lit a cigarette and took a few puffs, and the exhaled smoke drifted to the chandelier overhead, shining some strange shadows in the light, Li Huan said: "What we do is actually very simple, there are many scholars in the sixteenth, they study a lot of things, but most of them are related to the so-called equipment, and our duty is to help them find what they need, but they are not ordinary objects." For example, for example, there is an old man in a certain place who has lived for 300 years, this is unreasonable, we need to explore, find this old man who is rumored to have lived for hundreds of years, as for why he can live this factory time, it will be completed by the 16 institutes, it is not our responsibility, understand? ”

After hearing this, Wu Qicai nodded a little understandingly, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, raised his eyes to look around, and asked Li Huan with some uncertainty: "Then is this place an unusual place, you brought someone over to investigate?" ”

Li Huan took a cigarette in his mouth and laughed and said, "It's okay, I finally see it." This place was actually a natural collapse caused by early volcanic activity at the beginning, and later the Japanese found this place during the Manchurian period, and originally wanted to convert it into a military one, but it turned out that something was wrong in the depths of this cave, it seemed to have no end, all the way to hell. When we accepted this place, it had been converted into a research institute, and we saw it now, but we found out that it was a wonderful thing that the Japanese actually built a cemetery in the cave, and after burying the dead with the special sand and gravel in the volcano, it didn't take long for the dead to crawl out of the grave, and they all walked towards the hole leading to the depths as if they were attracted by something. ”

After hearing this, Wu Qi suddenly thought of the black copper taro sandalwood, which can resurrect the dead and attract them to a certain place, even if it is the characteristic of the black copper taro sandalwood. Thinking of this, Wu Qi hurriedly raised his head and was about to say, but Li Huan shook his head and said: "It's not the black copper taro you think, but something else, we still know too little about this world, when I first came here, I even believed that there was hell, and I also thought that there would be any Lord Yama or something." The passage gets smaller and smaller the further you go inside, and it really seems that there is no end, we have measured it from the outside of the mountain, and that direction should lead directly to the center of the volcano, in short, it is necessary for scholars to come and explore it in person, I don't know much and don't want to understand. ”

Ears listened to Li Huan speak, but Wu Qi's eyes were stuck on the hat and couldn't move away, the cockade on it was a sign of a five-pointed star in the middle of a circle, but each corner was an origin, it seemed to be the sign of the five elements, which was the sign of the five-element group of the sixteen external missions.
