Kai Wanli seems to have had a long, long nightmare that he couldn't wake up from.

In the dream, he went back to when he was ten years old.

The traffickers rushed through the crowd on the street, picked up the five-year-old Kaichihiro and started running, their mother screamed and frantically pounced, but the trafficker had accomplices, and his accomplice took a knife from his waist and stabbed his mother in the chest.

Their father recaptured Keichihiro, but the vicious traffickers slit his throat. Qi Qianxun lay on his mother's gradually cold corpse and cried, and the young Qi Wanli stood in place, his eyes full of blood.

The traffickers were surrounded by crowds, knives were snatched away, they were crushed to the ground and beaten by angry crowds, but those who were stabbed in the heart and slit their throats could not wake up again.

Kai Wanli was still standing in place, and he tried to walk up and hug the crying Kai Qianxun, but his body couldn't move.

Then, the scene began to regress, he returned to the time when his parents led him and his sister out, and his father smiled and said, today is my sister's birthday, what gift do you want to give to your sister?

Qi Wanli wanted to say, let's not go out, okay? But he couldn't say it, so he could only let himself be led out of the door, and then go out into the street again to witness the death of his parents.

This scene keeps looping and can't end, Qi Wanli gradually realizes that this is a dream, but no matter how he struggles, he can't wake up, and can only collapse over and over again in despair. He originally thought that he and his sister had been dependent on each other for twenty years, and that he had woken up from this nightmare and was already a person who had the strength to face everything, but he was still so helpless in his dream.

With each collapse, he felt his soul almost shatter, but as he went back again and again, his soul was also whole again and again. In the process, a strange energy gradually gathered in his body, Qi Wanli could feel this power, but he didn't know what it was, and the feeling was like the full satisfaction of eating a full meal and sleeping well.

On the one hand, there is a painful and desperate dream, and on the other hand, there is a strange feeling of fulfillment and satisfaction, Qi Wanli repeats the nightmare in this strange pull, and I don't know how long he sleeps.

After a long, long time, when Qi Wanli was gradually numb in the infinite loop of dreams, a bright light suddenly shone into his dream, and then a voice came.

"Wake up, wake up!"

Qi Wanli was startled, and the dream began to shatter piece by piece, and then he felt a palm slapping his face lightly and heavily, and this touch made him gradually regain his true physical consciousness.

"Hey, wake up!"

The voice was still shouting tirelessly, and Qi Wanli gradually woke up, and a light shone in front of his eyes, piercing him so that he couldn't open his eyes. He tried to answer something, but coughed involuntarily.

As he coughed, the voice that called him awake stopped. Then, he heard the footsteps of several people, and the light source that shone directly on his eyelids receded a little.

The feeling of fatigue and numbness after a long sleep spread all over the voice, and Qi Wanli wanted to raise his hand and open his eyes, but his body did not obey. He felt the bones and fascia of his whole body stick together, a feeling he had after he had been seriously injured in the police and lying in a coma in the hospital for a week, and he could only keep trying to move his fingers and joints as hard as he could, trying to move as quickly as possible.

And in the process, the person who woke him up seemed to be very patient, just shining a light source on him, quietly without making any urging sounds.

Finally, Qi Wanli raised his right hand and wiped it on his face. His face was wet, and he didn't know what kind of water it was. With a wipe of his face, he was finally able to open his eyes, and then he supported the hard ground under him with his elbows, barely half-sitting.

The vision was still a little blurry, but I could barely see the general situation in front of me. Qi Wanli quickly glanced around, and found that he seemed to be in a cave where he couldn't see the sun, and there was a constant sound of water droplets falling around him; four figures could be vaguely seen in front of him, they were standing there quietly, and the person in front of him should be holding a flashlight in his hand and facing him, they saw Qi Wanli sit up, and adjusted his posture slightly. Qi Wanli's body was still wearing the suit and dress from the wedding, but it was already very shabby, and the clothes and shirts were as wet as his face.

At this time, Qi Wanli's brain was still a mess, he coughed twice, and asked in a very hoarse voice, "You guys...... Is it the rescue team?What's going on out there?" He remembered that his last memory was an apocalyptic scene, so he estimated that he was lucky to survive the collapse, but he didn't know where he drifted in the horrific disaster.

"......Rescue team? Who is it?" the man with the flashlight on the other side made a confused voice, sounding like a low, rugged male voice.

Qi Wanli rubbed his temples to relieve the swelling pain in his brain, and said: "My name is Qi Wanli, and I am the head of the serious crime team of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Haimen Public Security Bureau...... Where is this?"

"Haimen City?"

"Public Security Bureau?"

“...... Serious Crime Unit?"

The four people on the opposite side subconsciously repeated Qi Wanli's words, their voices were full of doubt and disbelief, and then they quieted down again, which made Qi Wanli have an ominous premonition in his heart. After a few seconds, the deep and rugged male voice took a breath and said slowly: "This is the Black Stone Mountain Range on the eastern coast of the Nanlin Peninsula, and the Haimen City you mentioned is now an abandonment, and it has sunk below sea level more than two hundred years ago, about fifty kilometers away from here. ”

Qi Wanli was stunned, didn't react, and subconsciously asked, "What are you talking about?" and then gradually began to understand the meaning of the other party's words, and his face quickly turned pale.

He stood up with his body propped up, frowned, and asked, "How is this possible?"

The other side was silent for a while, and said: "Brother, there may be some obstacles to our current communication, in this way, our camp is about two or three kilometers outside the cave, can you walk? Let's go to the camp to talk, there are some things there, if you really ...... The people in Haimen City at that time, maybe after reading it, we will have a better exchange. ”

Qi Wanli took a few heavy breaths, leaned against the cave wall next to him and tried to move his feet, and found that he could walk. He thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Okay." Go ahead, go slower, and I'll follow you. ”

The intuition of being a criminal policeman for many years told Qi Wanli that the other party did not seem to have malicious intent, nor did it look like lying. It's just that the information revealed by the other party is too absurd, so he can't believe it. But thinking of the scene of the collapse of the sky and the strange sound before he fell into a coma, he subconsciously believed in that terrible possibility.

Two hundred years, two hundred years! How can a man sleep for two hundred years? He is not Captain America frozen in ice, nor is he an astronaut who was launched into space in a sleeping pod, there is nothing in that cave, he has not eaten or drunk, he should have died a long time ago, right? How can his clothes still be intact in two hundred years? He should have rotted into strips of rags a long time ago? Moreover, two hundred years...... What happened to Qi Qianxun? What about Lin Yan? What about the colleagues in the serious crime team? What about the little clerks in the office next door who had a good impression of each other? Did they turn into white bones a long time ago? Even as early as that disaster......

Qi Wanli couldn't stop these thoughts from popping up, they were like poisonous insects constantly burrowing into his mind, and the more he drove them, the more they took root. Even if his mind is as strong as iron, Qi Wanli's legs can't help but tremble at this time, he doesn't want to face such a fact, but he has to and must know the truth.

The cave where he was sleeping was very deep, with many forks, and Qi Wanli walked very slowly. They walked for half an hour before they could faintly see a glimmer of light in front of them, and they wondered why these people had come into the cave and how they had found him. As the sun gradually brightened, Qi Wanli also began to see the appearance of the people in front of him.

They are all very tall, each of them is about 1.9 meters tall, compared to Qi Wanli, who is in his early 1.8 meters, he has become a small man. These people don't look young, they all look like they're about forty years old, they are wearing leather clothes that seem to be waterproof materials, and there are many tools hanging on their bodies, some of them are flashlights, manuscripts, and folding knives that Qi Wanli knows, and some are strange-shaped tools that he has never seen, but it can be roughly judged that they are used to survive in the wild and open the way to find a way.

The owner of the low, rugged male voice that spoke to Qi Wanli at the beginning was a bald bearded man with dark skin and a strong body, and his muscles stretched out the leather coat, and even the exposed neck skin could be seen bursting green tendons. He was apparently the leader of the small group, giving out commands from time to time and briefly introducing himself as he went.

His name is Tian Yuanxing, and the other three are called Lao Lin, Da Xiong and Jingye by him.

This way of addressing Qi Wanli reminded him of his teammates in the serious crime team, and his mood became even lower.

In addition, they didn't have any more communication with Qi Wanli, maybe for them, suddenly picking up a guy who might be an ancient, the psychological pressure is not small.

When you see the light, you don't have to go far from the exit. After another five or six minutes, several people came to the exit. This exit is very hidden, covered by a large number of weeds and vines, but you can clearly see the flattened grass on the grass at the entrance of the cave, it seems that it is not the first time that Tian Yuanxing has entered and exited the cave.

The entrance to the cave is on a cliff halfway up a mountain range.

Walking out of the cave, Qi Wanli's eyes narrowed slightly in the sun, the heat and light brought by the sun seemed to have a strange power, which could lift people's spirits, he took a deep breath, opened his eyes that gradually adapted to the sun, and looked in all directions.

The hill was still a little verdant, but a few hundred meters down the hill it was gradually devoid of vegetation, and you could see that it was desolate land, and a little farther away there were buildings, but they were extremely dilapidated, and the details were not visible for the time being. Further away is the vast sea.

He was still looking around, and Tian Yuanxing had already pointed to the dilapidated building complex at this time, and said, "Our camp is there." ”
