It was explained that three hours after the end of the meeting, Cao Xueyang did not leave. Instead, he stayed in the reception room all the time, drinking coffee and killing time.

And there are two main reasons why she didn't leave.

The first reason is that Cao is nameless.

Cao Xueyang had never seen Cao Wuming himself before.

However, she repeated that scene more than once in her dreams:

Under the boundless yellow sand, the majestic Zisai Second City is in front of you, and under a scorching sun, a woman in red stepped on the wind and sand, slowly coming from the vast desert; Hats, veils, and piercing eyes. On the woman's waist, there was a pair of gray wolf holsters, a pair of light crossbows, and thirty-three pitch-black arrows inserted into them, and behind her, she carried a sword and a sword.......

There is no doubt that the person Cao Xueyang dreamed of was Cao Wuming himself.

However, what Cao Xueyang doesn't understand is what is the relationship between her and Cao Wuming?

First of all, it is certain that Cao Wuming is by no means her sister or an elder of the maternal clan, if there is such a sister, how can there be no record in the family household register?

However, Cao Xueyang can clearly feel that the blood between the two is extremely similar, and this feeling of not being a blood relative but better than a blood relative has been haunting his heart since the moment he saw Cao Wuming.

When he was in college, Cao Xueyang took a biology course.

She knows that even the same human genome can change in millions of ways! Even if the two of them have the same ancestor, after thousands of years, the probability of the same gene may be more reliable to win the lottery.

In other words, it is not rigorous to explain the relationship between them scientifically.

But as the saying goes, the end of science is metaphysics, and the end of metaphysics is theology.

As an archaeologist, Cao Xueyang naturally has a considerable understanding of these two disciplines.

From a metaphysical point of view, she, Cao Xueyang, is likely to be the reincarnation of Cao Wuming.

From ancient times to the present, there are many examples of soul reincarnation.

For example, the reincarnation of the mysterious living Buddha in China, the reincarnation of the priest of Miaojiang, the reincarnation of the great wizard of the Negro tribe, etc., for these people, death only caused them to temporarily lose their bodies.

There are plenty of young bodies that can regenerate them as long as they want to. In other words, physical death is nothing at all, as long as the soul exists, they will exist forever.

Such a life form can also be counted

- Immortality in another sense?

It's just that no one except the person concerned knows what the reincarnation process is like or how they work.

Of course, even if you are reincarnated, it is not 100% successful, and when the soul is reincarnated, accidents often happen.

For example, the most famous one is the canopy marshal in "Journey to the West", because of the wrong pig fetus, the pig Gangguan of the year became the pig Wuneng of today.

However, this kind of reincarnation, in Cao Xueyang's view, has a big problem.

That is, this kind of depriving another person of his body and reincarnating oneself is not reincarnation, but taking away

This also begs the second question.

Is Cao Xueyang the reincarnation of Cao Wuming?

According to the theory of reincarnation, the host of the soul can only be reincarnated after the death of the body and after reincarnation. But in fact, Cao Wuming never died, so there is no prerequisite for reincarnation.

With this question, Cao Xueyang specially went to consult Cao Wuming. It's just that the latter seems to be a little too lazy to take care of her. So, she could only consult Jin Erniang.

Jin Erniang's answer is also quite interesting, just one sentence: I'll tell you when she comes back.

Cao Xueyang knew that the special nature of Cao Wuming and the others' work would never be a sightseeing tour or shopping.

So she didn't inquire about where she went, but waited honestly in the reception room.

It's just that Cao Xueyang didn't know at this time that Cao Wuming, who she was thinking about, just wanted to drink now, the kind that drank to death.

No, after the meeting, Cao Wuming returned to the dormitory alone, drunk and unconscious.

And the second reason why Cao Xueyang stayed here was Yang Tingfeng.

This "Great Sui Ice Corpse" that escaped from her laboratory is an important cultural relic of the research institute, and Cao Xueyang has an unshirkable responsibility in both public and private life.

Although there is little hope, Cao Xueyang still wants to try.

Let's see if it's possible to bring people back from Jin Erniang.

Of course, Jin Erniang's answer was also very simple, just one sentence, just two words in the words: "No way!" ”33

Having said that, Cao Xueyang was still ready to talk to Jin Erniang.

After all, her biggest virtue is patience.

As long as Jin Erniang doesn't drive her away, Cao Xueyang can wait until they doubt life.

When it was time to eat, the door of the reception room suddenly rang, Cao Xueyang was stunned, thinking that Cao Wuming was coming, and immediately got up and opened the door.

But to her disappointment, what caught her eye was a middle-aged man with stubble, a burly figure, wearing sportswear, and a scar on his face. This person, about forty years old, has a fierce expression, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance.

"Hello, is this Dr. Cao?"

The man spoke, his attitude was quite respectful, and he even politely stretched out his hand and shook Cao Xueyang gently.

His hands are thick and powerful, with heavy calluses on his palms.

This man, without a doubt, is a soldier, and Cao Xueyang, who was born in a military family, has no doubt about this.

"Hello, I'm Cao Xueyang, are you the military commander here?" Cao Xueyang asked with a smile, but before he could do it, he added: "My grandfather is too, and my father is also a soldier, but unfortunately, I am not in our family, hehe." ”

When the man heard this, he suddenly straightened up, leaned on the heel of his shoe, and the whole person stood upright, looking as steady as a mountain, tall as a pine, and then, in a very standard posture, he came to salute, which scared Cao Xueyang the boss!

Cao Xueyang said embarrassedly: "Don't ..... No, I'm not....... Hey........."

"The doctor doesn't have to be modest, Ling Zu fought bloodily with the thieves and bears in the Jiaodong Peninsula in the past, throwing his head and spilling blood." The man said heartily: "After the liberation, Ling Zun led the leading troops into Xinjiang and went deep into the desert Gobi, becoming the first nuclear advance force of our army and making great achievements. The children of heroes can definitely afford this salute. ”

Cao Xueyang obviously understood the meaning of the man's words, bit his thin lip, and lowered his head.

"Oh yes, Doctor, Team Jin is dealing with other things, so she specially called me over and invited you to dine first." At this point, he involuntarily made a "please" gesture.

"That's for you." Cao Xueyang nodded slowly, just in time, she was also a little hungry.

The secret base of the night does not collect is quite large, and it is located in the suburbs.

The exterior of the main building is planted with countless vegetation, which seems to be messy, but it blends in with the surrounding environment just right, and the camouflage is perfect.

It is also a place where you can't find a place on the map of China.

Within a radius of 10 kilometers, the signal is completely shielded, and there is no satellite navigation and positioning.

None of today's most advanced military spy satellites can shoot it.

However, in such a place where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't poop, there is a company of soldiers standing guard.

What is even more exaggerated is that these soldiers wear special epaulettes, fasten digital helmets, wear nano-scale combat uniforms, and countless unknown pieces of equipment, coming and going, either in helicopter gunships or armored combat vehicles.

Needless to say, there is a unit stationed here, and it is still the most elite special forces.

When passing by the obstacle course, those special operations soldiers were like jaguars, crawling forward, rolling and jumping, all of them moving in a chic and neat, clean and fast.

When passing by the martial arts training ground, those special operations soldiers were like tigers descending from the mountain, attacking and defending, grappling and rear-naked choke, and never entangled with each other. It's like the person on the other side, not a comrade-in-arms, but an enemy.

However, what puzzled Cao Xueyang was that although the soldiers were training in full swing, the entire training ground was silent.

really responded to that sentence, quiet as a virgin, moving like a rabbit.

Cao Xueyang is not unexperienced in the military, she grew up in the military region since she was a child, and she is no stranger to the army.

She also knows that the most important thing for traditional old troops is spirit.

Whether you're training or singing, keep a high profile. The voice should be loud and vigorous, as if every military action can only be expressed with the word "kill".

But the unit in front of her gave her a completely different feeling - it was as if the soldiers expressed their youthful enthusiasm and loyalty to the people of the motherland only through their perfect movements

In the face of Cao Xueyang's doubts, the explanation given by the middle-aged officer was:

Our troops are different from traditional troops. It is the so-called yin and yang principle of Tai Chi - the traditional army guards the country and the people, which is the yang side of Tai Chi. But here, we not only have to do everything that the yang side can do, but even do many things that the yang side can't do, that is, the yin of Tai Chi. Yin and yang complement each other, the sun and the moon rotate, and one yin and one yang are the way.

You..... Do you understand?

Does Cao Xueyang understand?

Of course she understood.

No matter what kind of fighters they are, they are using their youth to support the backbone of the motherland.

The reason why the Chinese flower growers have been able to stand for 5,000 years and become the most powerful country today is precisely because there are countless Yin or Yang warriors who use their military souls to guard the mountains and rivers of the motherland, and the years are quiet

Cao Xueyang's grandfather is, his father is, his brother is, so is his sister, Jin Erniang Cao Wuming is, the middle-aged man in front of him and the soldiers who don't collect at night are all ....... They use their blood to protect the future of the motherland.

"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you yet—" Cao Xueyang suddenly wondered.

She only asked half the question, because she knew that it might involve military secrets, and the other party might not be willing to tell her.

Hearing this, the middle-aged officer had no scruples, and introduced himself generously: "I am the commander of the guard company here. ”

"Guard Company Commander?" Cao Xueyang was taken aback, this was something she didn't expect.

Because no matter what, according to the age and seniority of the officer, how can he be a cadre at the regimental level or even above the deputy division level, and how can he only be a regular company?

From Cao Xueyang's expression, the officer saw her doubts, and immediately explained that his company commander was different from ordinary company commanders, and his company commander had the rank of major general. Every ordinary soldier in the unit here is a company commander or even a battalion commander selected by other units, and he is a real high-ranking and low-level soldier.

You..... Do you understand?

Does Cao Xueyang understand?

Of course she ..... Don't understand.

Major general!

Cao Xueyang naturally knows this military rank, what kind of existence is it in the ordinary army?

How many officers at the rank of colonel, in the face of this half-step major general, stopped here, and eventually changed careers or retired.

Coupled with the age of a middle-aged officer, who is only in his early forties, how promising is this?

But the man in front of him gave up the opportunity to lead an army, and came here to be an unknown guard company commander, Cao Xueyang really couldn't understand.

And those ordinary soldiers, all of whom are captain-level officers who lead a team of more than 100 people, are willing to give up their identity as 100 generals and choose to come here to be an ordinary soldier, which is even more eye-opening for Cao Xueyang.

At this time, she suddenly remembered a passage in "Three Kingdoms: Book of Wei":

The pure superintendent of the tiger and leopard rides, all of which are sharp in the world, or from the hundreds of people will make up for it, and its elite can be seen......

Some people died, but not completely......
