Chapter Seventy-Six: The Old Immortal in Wudang Mountain
"For our Zhu family, the biggest secret of Wudang Mountain is not any exercises or cheats, but a person. Ma Xiaoyang drove the car, Zhu Jiayi was in the co-pilot, opening the window, casually letting the cool wind outside blow in, and the green hills along the way exuded a sweet atmosphere, which made people's minds become extraordinarily clear.
"People?" Ma Xiaoyang asked puzzled.
"Yes, his common surname is Xiong, and the Taoist name after becoming a monk is called Shouzheng, not how amazing he is, how high his cultivation is, but how long he has lived, our Taizu has been accompanied when he came out of the mountain, he has been accompanied, because the medical Tao is not separated, several times to save Taizu in danger, and then our ancestors, fortunate to become his old man's lay disciples, on this relationship, our old Zhu family, can have a smooth journey, plus later specially approved to become a monk in Wudang Mountain, the generation gradually increased, almost all the contemporary disciples of Wudang are his disciples and grandchildren, so all kinds of cheats are convenient to get。 Because of the particularity of his old man, every time he makes any action on Wudang Mountain, it will be special, and the old Zhu family will also be very cautious. Zhu Jiayi said lightly.
"What is the situation now?" asked Ma Xiaoyang curiously.
"Practicing in a certain palace on the mountain, because of the reason of seclusion, it is inconvenient to say that except for the main members of our Zhu family who go to visit on Chinese New Year's Eve every year, major events that are not life and death will not bother him. Zhu Jiayi said with a smile. "So far, I have seen him once, and it was also the Chinese New Year's Eve before I went abroad, and the old fairy is indeed like a fairy, and the fairy wind and Dao bone are exceptionally close. ”
"Could it be, he's also an Ability Awakener. Ma Xiaoyang asked curiously again.
"I didn't know before, but now that I think about it, it should be, but according to our current research, it is speculated that he should just adjust his body to the best state, and it is estimated that he has no special ability. Zhu Jiayi guessed.
"Where is your current research?" Ma Xiaoyang inquired vigorously.
"I want to know, I won't tell you now, this time we go back, just to go to the research institute, where there is not only theoretical knowledge, but also some restored legendary treasures. Zhu Jiayi deliberately sold off.
"You're just trying to whet my appetite, aren't you?"
"Yes. Zhu Jiayi was not embarrassed at all.
"I don't know how to take what you said. Ma Xiaoyang shrugged helplessly.
"About the institute, let me explain it to you, the institute is an institution that has always existed, it seems that the change of dynasties has no effect, the predecessors used it to study immortality, and the descendants used it to study the results of the predecessors' research, no matter how the world changes, the existence of the institute does not seem to have been interrupted, so, there are a lot of good things in it, all you need is for you to discover. Zhu Jiayi continued to induce.
"Then what qualifications do you need to go to the research institute to find these things?, or rather, what kind of people can enter!" Ma Xiaoyang asked.
"The institute has always been free from the world, of course, after every change of dynasty, he will reach cooperation with the ruler of the current dynasty, but the qualifications to enter are also authoritative, for example, some people from the military or special departments can go in to check the information, and all of us in the entire office can go into the branch of the institute to look at the information, but the core things can only be contacted by the group of people at the top of us, or, you get their approval. Zhu Jiayi explained.
"Recognition? This kind of ambiguous words are not good boundaries. Ma Xiaoyang frowned.
"There is no need for outsiders, people decide for themselves, maybe one day you help your grandmother cross the street, and people recognize you, or you save the earth, people also recognize you, the initiative is in the hands of others, and there is no explanation. Zhu Jiayi didn't have to express helplessness.
"So, are you recognized?"
"No, it's just that my authority is relatively high, and I can see more things. ”
"Then tell me why. Ma Xiaoyang asked puzzled.
"When I looked at the information, I found that most of the people they recognized had special features, and you had a double ability, I think a large part of them might be recognized and included in the research institute, and I tell you everything now, everything you do, you can see it as an investment, maybe, when you enter the research institute in the future, I may have something else to exchange with you. The personnel flow of the institute itself, in addition to their own family heritage for thousands of years, does recruit a group of people from the society every year, which is also a point of cooperation between them and the above, but most of these recruited people are working in the periphery, and many core things cannot be touched. "Zhu Jiayi made no secret of her purpose, it just so happened that Ma Xiaoyang is such a person, if you make everything clear at the beginning, whether it is good or bad, then I can accept it calmly, but I go around and around, and when Ma Xiaoyang finds out what the problem is, then I'm sorry, I won't play with you.
"You seem to be holding me up too highly, if you want to say special, we have more than 180 people with awakened abilities, which one is not special. ”
"Anyway, I've already said this, no one can say what will happen in the future, let's take a step at a time. Zhu Jiayi pursed her lips and smiled.
"Research Institute, is it called Research Institute?" Ma Xiaoyang asked strangely, "Is it such an uncreative name?"
"Names are only used to explain the essence of things, their essence is the institute, so it is called the institute, of course, the previous dynasties, there may be different names, but it doesn't matter. ”
"Where are they?"
"The headquarters is in the Qinling Mountains, and no one knows where it is except for the people inside them, but there is a branch in the capital, and I suspect that they may have mastered a small world, from the beginning of its establishment to the present. Zhu Jiayi said her reasoning.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter to me right now. Ma Xiaoyang said as he drove.
"I've already contacted the above, we can arrive in the capital at seven o'clock tonight, and we will go to the Beijing branch of the research institute in the evening, in addition to reporting the current discovery, we also need to borrow a little people and things, as far as our ability is concerned, we can't enter that small world." Zhu Jiayi explained the purpose of returning to the capital today.
"Got it. ”
It takes four hours to drive from Longmen Mountain to the airport in the provincial capital, and Ma Xiaoyang only took two and a half hours to arrive because of the relationship between the vehicle license plate and the substantial improvement of his physical functions such as reaction nerves.
It's a pity that people came early, so they still had to wait for the plane, but fortunately, the plane was not late, and at seven o'clock, the two set foot on the land of the capital.
The office has already sent someone to pick it up, get in the car, and drive all the way to the center of the capital.
"The office you are talking about is here?" Ma Xiaoyang asked in disbelief, pointing to a majestic office building in front of him, where the area was still in the CBD.
"Otherwise, this is just their branch, just doing liaison, inquiry, etc., and buying an office building, there is nothing wrong with it. Zhu Jiayi smiled slightly.
"Yes, is it hidden in the world? ”
"Let's go inside. Zhu Jiayi pursed her lips and smiled, here are just her and Ma Xiaoyang, many expressions don't need to be tight.
Saying that, he took Ma Xiaoyang into the building, at this moment, there are many white-collar workers at work in the building, in and out, so lively, there is an access control downstairs, Liu Yan, who came to pick up the airport, Zhu Jiayi's secretary who was arranged to come in, prepared the access control card, waited in the hall, watched the two come, led the way in front, and took the two into the elevator.
There are a total of six elevators, one of which seems to be dedicated, and the opening of the elevator requires fingerprints, Ma Xiaoyang understands that this elevator should be directly to the research institute.
There is no difference inside the elevator, there are five floors above, 80 to 84, in addition to the ordinary floor buttons, there is also a camera, Zhu Jiayi pressed 80, and a net of red lines shot out near the camera, which scanned all the corners of the elevator, and then started and began to rise.
"Can you only get to 80?" Ma Xiaoyang asked curiously.
"It's 81 now, and maybe, it's okay to go up later. Zhu Jiayi said calmly.
