Li Heping is old, and he is still doing detective work.

He said it was his hobby.

The stupid leaders of the Gas Phase Bureau and his stinky apprentices don't understand him at all.

But now there's a new little apprentice, and it looks like it's easy to deceive...... Oh no, his mind is very pure, and he can respect the old and love the young, Li Heping feels that he can talk to him well.

So in the morning, he went to the village to buy chickens.

Li Zheng's stinky boy must have said bad things about him, such as "The teacher refused to accept the apprentice so he ran away" and so on. Although this is true, how can the teacher's face be ignored?

In order to reverse this image, in order to show his welcome to Yan Yueming, Li Heping bought two chickens at a time.

There are people in the village who are holding a happy event today, and Li Heping even went to join in the excitement for a while, so he delayed some time. When he returned to the inn, it was already past eleven o'clock at noon, and after handing over the two chickens to the kitchen for them to help with them, he went to find his apprentice.

Looking for it, what about people?

He went out of the inn again, and after looking for a long time, he found that the man was standing under the tree opposite the inn. Li Zheng sneered, "I still want to be a detective." ”

Yan Yueming didn't dare to speak.

You took me to hide very well just now, and you are standing so obviously at this moment, just to say this?

When Li Heping heard it, he glared at him angrily, and beckoned to Yan Yueming with a smile, "Come, Xiao Ming, the teacher will talk to you." ”

Yan Yueming looked at Li Zheng, and then passed.

Li Heping was very enthusiastic, patted Yan Yueming's shoulder, and looked left and right very satisfied. If he had known that he was taking in such a little apprentice, he wouldn't have escaped.

This enthusiasm continued until lunchtime.

Because Li Heping came back late, he didn't have time to cook the roast chicken, so he ate the meal provided by the inn at noon. Yan Yueming has an average amount of rice, about a bowl of rice can be full, no one has said anything since she was a child, but the teacher feels very distressed.

"Why do you eat so much? Only when you have enough food can you have the strength to study and get good results. Li Heping said, and quickly made a study plan for him.

"That's it, you live here for the next few days, and the teacher will give you special training." Li Heping was finally about to shoulder the burden of being a teacher, and after he finished talking about his teaching package, Yan Yueming showed an almost sluggish expression.

If Senior Li's style is to teach students according to their aptitude and play freely, then Senior Sister is the question sea tactic of hanging beams and stabbing stocks, the primary school principal is the encouragement of love, and the teacher is the Spartan warrior trainer.

"Teacher, I'm taking the logistics test." Yan Yueming reminded in a whisper.

"Logistics also needs a good body, various departments run back and forth, and what if you fall into the gap again? There are so many anomalies that you can't learn them all, so you run away when you encounter danger. The world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable. Li Heping said.

Help me.

Yan Yueming looked at Li Zheng for help, Li Zheng drank tea elegantly without raising his eyelids.

In this way, Yan Yueming began physical training.

He didn't know why he embarked on this road, when he packed his luggage and followed Li Zheng out of the city, he still had the intention of enjoying the wind and scenery, but the plan couldn't catch up with the change.

When Yan Yueming was running on the mountain road, Li Zheng and Li Heping were watching from the side. The two chatted about business, and the atmosphere finally eased slightly.

"It's not good for the teacher to come out, and I'm definitely avoiding the limelight for a while, but if I hibernate for too long, it's not a good thing." Because that means he might hold back next time, Li Heping thought. Li Zheng could fully understand his worries, and said: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, not all the time. ”

Li Heping turned his head to look at him, "But safety is the most important thing." Li Zheng, you know what I want to tell you, it's not advisable to be alone, everything must be premised on your own safety, you know? ”

Li Zheng did not answer.

Li Heping: "Why don't you go on a blind date before the donkey appears?" It doesn't matter if you don't like women, how many years have the same-sex marriage bills passed? ”

In this era of rules everywhere, there are no rules that can be without. As a result, the world is much more open and tolerant in many ways than it was 30 years ago

Li Heping thought, hurry up and find a partner, with concern, this person will be more vivid. Li Zheng asked him lightly, "You haven't found a partner until now, tell me this, is it appropriate?" ”

"How is it not suitable? You're not me, and I'm not you. Li Heping tried to make a final decision, "That's it, I'll arrange it for you later." ”

"No, no."

"Tsk."

Li Heping was deflated again, so he simply went to find his little apprentice. He remembered that Yan Yueming had just started training, so he didn't arrange too heavy training tasks for him, just ran and moved his limbs, and let him rest.

But even with such a little training, Yan Yueming was sweating like rain.

In order to divert the teacher's attention and not let him worry too much about himself, Yan Yueming wiped his sweat, drank the mineral water handed to him by Li Zheng, and racked his brains to change the topic, "Teacher, the senior said that you are very interested in the protagonist's conjecture, is there any clue?" ”

Li Heping was full of interest when he said this, "Actually, the clue is here." ”

Yan Yueming: "Here? Mingshan? ”

Li Heping: "Teacher, I'm not very interested in this, I finally retired, I have my own time, and I have been walking around in the past two years." There are special forums on the Internet, and there are rumors and gossip in various places, and I have checked them one by one, but unfortunately so far, none of them are true. However, there is a generally accepted guess that if there is a protagonist, then the protagonist is most likely from the upper city. ”

Yan Yueming tried to use her brain, "Is it because the duck has appeared in the upper city three times in a row?" Or is it because the upper city is big enough? ”

"Both." Li Heping said: "It is large enough, which means that the rules cover a large area, the population is also large, and it is worthy of the name of the core area." And the fact that the duck appears here three times in a row is really telling. The gas phase bureau has actually been looking for it, but there is a vast sea of people, and it is enough to just deal with the rules of the day, how can there be that person to find a needle in a haystack? And there is also a saying that after the author finished constructing this world, he did not really develop the storyline, and the story was shelved, but because the world structure is complete, this world is still alive, and the world consciousness is born, and we are gradually awakening. Theoretically, there is no real protagonist. Over the years, the gas phase bureau has also been more inclined to this kind of speculation. ”

Li Zheng said indifferently: "There is no protagonist, then everyone is the protagonist." ”

Yan Yueming felt that this statement was great, and immediately cast a look of admiration, "I think this is good." ”

"But just when I got here, and was about to explore it one last time, I finally found some clues." Li Heping was not without pride, and sold a pass to Yan Yueming, "Guess how I found out?" ”

Yan Yueming tried hard to think again, but she really couldn't think of it, so she simply blindfolded one, "Fell into a gap?" ”

I don't know if you have one, anyway, I fell in it the other day.

Li Heping crossed his arms, "That's right." ”

Yan Yueming blinked, but she didn't expect to guess correctly. Li Heping said with a smile: "A few days ago, I happened to encounter a gap here, and after entering, I found that it was a small mountain village. The gaps are theoretically connected, but I have worked in the Gas Phase Bureau for so many years, and I have never seen this small mountain village. Later, I wandered around this small mountain village and found a piece of paper with words written on it

One word. The background of this small mountain village is not modern, and all the characters in it are traditional characters, only the one on this piece of paper is simplified. This proves that the person who left this sentence is a wanderer who accidentally fell into it in the real world, just like me. ”

Yan Yueming asked curiously: "What is that message?" ”

Li Heping: "If I am really the protagonist, then I curse it, possessed by bad luck, and the chain will be dropped forever at the critical moment." ”

Because the tone of Li Heping's narration was a little ridiculous, this sentence was not terrifying, but a little joyful.

Yan Yueming raised her doubts, "Does 'it' refer to physiognomy?" But if you say 'if' on paper, isn't this person himself unsure if he is the protagonist? And if you call yourself the 'main character', anyone can do it. ”

Li Heping shook his head and continued: "It's true that anyone can do it, the identity of the protagonist is not only impersonated, but many times everyone will make fun of themselves, which is normal." But your senior must know what happened when the first generation of ducks was killed. ”

Yan Yueming looked at Li Zheng, only to see that Li Zheng seemed to think of something interesting, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said, "He tripped over a stone and fell off one of his front teeth." ”

"Ah......" Yan Yueming didn't know what to say.

Li Heping: "In fact, the first generation also had unlucky times, such as passing birds pooping on top of her head, why be in a hurry." ”

The more Yan Yueming listened, the more mysterious she became. As for the details of how the birds of the past dynasties died, of course, the gas phase bureau will not be announced, and as an ordinary person, if he hadn't heard this kind of words from the mouths of the teacher and the senior, he would have thought that the other party was making up nonsense

"But...... Is it or is there no conclusive evidence? Yan Yueming said.

"Yes, anyone can curse, this is still no evidence, so this clue is not at the level that can be reported, so I can only check it myself." This is the reason why Li Heping called Li Zheng over, he wants to go to that place to explore again, but after all, he is a retired old man, it is time to enjoy the blessings, how can he be so tired?

At this time, the apprentice comes in handy.

The apprentice doesn't want to pay attention to him, but the teacher's will cannot be diverted for the apprentice.

Li Heping was very decisive in this matter, "In short, that gap is really special, we have to go again." ”

But the problem now is that the entrance and exit of the gap are like the door in the Pu box, and they are not always there. There's no pattern, it's a matter of luck.

So Li Heping waved his hand and decided to invite the little apprentice to eat roast chicken first.

Roast chicken location: 300 meters away from the inn by the stream campground.

Roast Chicken Chef: Li Zheng.

Yan Yueming didn't expect that Senior Li, who didn't seem to eat fireworks in the world, still had this skill, and he had never touched the kitchenware in the kitchen when he was on Huayuan Road.

He couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, so even if he felt that Li Zheng's face seemed to have a momentum of mountain rain coming and the wind was full of buildings, he still approached cautiously, step by step, and then squatted by the fire and watched.

Li Zheng had impatience written on his face, but the movements in his hands were not ambiguous. Tumbling, sprinkling, and simple movements make for a pleasing effect.

The fragrance came out, and Yan Yueming was also hungry, her eyes sometimes staring at the roast chicken, and sometimes looking at Li Zheng.

At the campsite in the evening, the setting sun casts a flake of gold in the nearby creek. The broken gold flowed, and it reflected the rosy color. Li Zheng glanced at the person squatting next to him, and suddenly asked, "Do you want to eat?" ”

Yan Yueming nodded hurriedly, "Yes." ”

Okay.

For your honesty's sake.

When the chicken is roasted, the sun goes down. The campsite is lit up, and as far as the eye can see, there are beautiful lanterns hanging on the trees by the stream and on more than a dozen tents of all sizes, like the Milky Way falling, which is very beautiful.

On the small stage built of wooden boards, someone held a guitar and sang, singing tactfully, because it was too sad, and was coaxed by the tourists next to him to change the song. The young man holding the guitar laughed and cursed, raised the youthful eyebrows, and began to rock as soon as the style of music changed.

The crowd cheered.

Li Heping has shown strong social skills, most of the tourists in this campsite have been familiar with him in the past few days, and there are new tourists he doesn't know, he can chat a few words, and he can quickly push the cup and change the lamp, so unhappy.

Yan Yueming insisted on the roast chicken and the seniors unwaveringly. Because there was no black-framed glasses to cover him, his gaze at the roast chicken became much hotter, but no matter how hot it was, his movements were very regular, and he did not exceed it at all.

Li Zheng took the roast chicken off the grill, and took out a delicate knife out of nowhere as if he was juggling, and slowly deboned and divided the meat of the roast chicken, which made Yan Yueming's eyes shine.

The senior seems to really know everything. Yan Yueming thought.

Li Zheng divided the meat and handed the plate with chicken thigh meat to Yan Yueming. Yan Yueming took it and ate happily, and occasionally Li Heping would come back with the food he had received from his friends to feed the two apprentices, so after a dinner, Yan Yueming ate a round belly again.

While sitting and eating, Yan Yueming heard that Li Heping was still bragging to his friends. Because his friends praised the two boys he brought over were very handsome.

Yan Yueming was a little embarrassed to hear this, and Yu Guang secretly glanced at Li Zheng and found that he was calm.

It seems that he still can't cultivate at home, Yan Yueming thought, hesitated for a moment, and said to Li Zheng: "Senior, that ...... When you go to the gap with the teacher, can you take me with you? ”

Yan Yueming knew that her strength was limited. The teacher called him over, not in any way on the list of the gap trip, but just to let him come over to meet.

Besides, if the duck appears in the city, there is a high probability that the outside of the city is safer than the city at this moment. Li Zheng came here, leaving Yan Yueming alone on Huayuan Road, so it was better to take him with him.

Li Zheng looked over and did not speak.

Yan Yueming continued to fight for herself, "I'll try not to hold you back." ”

Li Zheng: "Reason? ”

Yan Yueming settled down and began her own analysis, first refining the main points: "I think I have to remember the things in the gap sooner or later, so the long pain is better than the short pain." And that one, the stupid bird flies first and enters the forest early. ”

This is a start, and the rest of the words will be smooth. Yan Yueming said a lot from his own personality, analysis to the responsibilities and requirements of the gas phase bureau, and then to the characteristics of the gaps.

All in all, although he is going to take the logistics test, the future is unpredictable, and since he wants to enter the gas phase, he must prepare for the worst. Rather than be in a hurry and panic in the face of danger, he might as well fly the stupid bird first, so that he will not cause trouble.

Part of the reason he didn't say.

First, he was touched by what he had seen and heard recently. As soon as everyone was so good to him, he couldn't help but think that he could help them one day.

Instead of procrastinating and seeking temporary stability for that day, month, or year, it is better to make bold changes. This is the path he finally chose for himself after so many days after coming out of the silent neighborhood.

Xiao Ming doesn't want to be a hero, but he wants to be a good partner who doesn't lag behind.

"Did you say yes?" Yan Yueming looked at Li Zheng with burning eyes, and Li Zheng also had his reflection in his eyes.

There was a beeping sound in the fire, and the light of the fire warmed the people here and brought light. Eventually, Li Zheng replied, "If you haven't changed your mind before the entrance to the crack reappears, I'll take you there." ”
