Rebel Demon King

Chapter 1117 Gemini (4)

"I don't know if you remember that before New Year's Day last year, that is, on December 12 last year, there was a terrorist attack in the 'Shard Building'." Bai Xiuxiu asked.

Cheng Mo nodded calmly and said, "Of course I remember the terrorist attack that killed dozens of people."

"The exact number is that 37 people were killed and more than 200 people were injured. The Shangri-La Hotel in the Shard was almost completely destroyed, and it has not yet resumed business."

Of course Cheng Mo knew about these situations, but he pretended to be surprised and said, "Is it so serious?"

"The real situation is worse than the media reports, and the death toll has doubled."

Cheng Mo stared at Bai Xiuxiu without saying a word, waiting for her to continue.

Bai Xiuxiu raised her head to drink the "plum wine" on the table.There is not much expression on her face, and there are a few traces of tiredness and a touch of sadness in the pair of fox eyes that should have flowed charmingly, looking very sick, no tears, but moist People can't help feeling pity.

When Bai Xiuxiu picked up the tissue and gently wiped off the wine stains on her mouth, Cheng Mo expelled the feelings in his mind. He knew that Bai Xiuxiu didn't need any mercy, and he couldn't give her any mercy. The only thing he could do was Fill up the wine for her.

When Cheng Mo put down the celadon jug, Bai Xiuxiu continued: "The reason why such a serious accident happened is because Yan Funing discovered that the 'Black Death' had made a major breakthrough in the 'God Gene', and I will report it to you." The content is roughly the same, but the character he came into contact with, the Black Prince Hugh Grosvenor, is a disciple of the talented biomedical scientist Karona and is a more core researcher than Athena, so the content reported by Yan Funing is better than yours. more detailed." After a pause, she said in a deep voice, "Thanks to Yan Funing, if we hadn't received the information from him who risked his life, maybe we are still debating whether what you said is true or not."

Cheng Mo said noncommittally: "If it's for this matter, I think the sacrifice is worth it."

"The problem now is that we've established that the news is true, and our colleagues have sacrificed so much, but we're kind of at a loss as to what to do next."

Cheng Mo thought that Bai Xiuxiu hoped that he and Athena could help find the "Garden of Eden", pretended to think about it, and then said: "If you want me and Athena to help find the location of the Garden of Eden, we can try our best."

"Yan Funing is clear about the location of the Garden of Eden. Not only that, he is also the key for us to obtain the research materials related to the 'Black Death Version of God Gene' from Hugh Grosvenor." Bai Xiuxiu said, "Perhaps he even Rovner can fool you."

"What about Yan Funing?"

Bai Xiuxiu took a deep breath and said, "He was captured by the Red Lion."

Cheng Mo remembered that he observed on TV that Yan Funing had escaped from the "Shard Building", but it was normal that Yan Funing could not escape from the Red Lion's pursuit. After all, Great Britain is such a big island, and if he wanted to escape It is indeed more difficult to get out than in other countries, so Cheng Mo said regretfully, "Can't you escape?"

"The situation is more complicated. He had already been lurking in Birmingham and was not in great danger, but later he turned himself in."

"Surrender yourself? What's going on?"

"On the 27th, he managed to escape from the Shard under the cover of Minsu, and immediately called a girl named Feng Qianqian to send him to Dungeness Point."

Of course, Cheng Mo is no stranger to the name Feng Qianqian, after all, she is Fu Yuan Zhuo Ming's ex-girlfriend who has been in love for many years and still misses it, but right now he doesn't care about the relationship between Yan Funing and Feng Qianqian, he immediately reacted to the way Yan Funing chose to escape, and exclaimed Said: "He wants to swim across the English Channel?"

Bai Xiuxiu nodded, "Yes, he has prepared several sets of related equipment. As long as there is no accident, it will not be a big problem to swim there. At that time, the Red Lions were still arresting him in London, and they did not expect that he had already arrived at Dungeness Point Yes, and I'm going to swim to France."

Cheng Mo, who has rich escape experience, immediately judged that the possibility is very high, nodded and said: "Indeed, there is a high possibility of swimming across the English Channel without being discovered. As long as you arrive in France, no matter whether it is by air, land or water, There are a lot more options to choose from, and the chances of successfully getting out of trouble should be very high." He said suspiciously, "What happened then? An accident called him to surrender?"

When making inquiries, Cheng Mo felt vaguely uneasy. He thought that Yan Yitong hadn't sent him WeChat messages for a while.Although Fu Yuanzhuo said that he quit the Internet for two months in order to devote himself wholeheartedly to filming, but this is really not Yan Yitong's style.When it comes to the word "surrender", Cheng Mo's heart hangs involuntarily.However, judging from the time, the relationship between the two is not so obvious. This is why Cheng Mo still has hope, hoping that Yan Funing did not turn himself in because of Yan Yitong.

"Originally Yan Funing's plan was to swim across the English Channel. He had made a detailed plan on how to escape from France and return to China. But when Yan Funing was about to go into the water, Feng Qianqian did not follow his arrangement and returned to London immediately. Instead, she turned her head. Come and look for him. This search completely disrupted Yan Funing's rhythm. As a last resort, he could only pretend to kill Feng Qianqian, strangled Feng Qianqian to a slight fracture of her neck bone, and made her fall into a coma. Then Yan Funing He revised his escape plan and entered the sea from Cape Dungeness, but instead of swimming to France, he quickly swam to Southampton along the ocean current, and then went straight to Birmingham, which is deep inland. Feng Xixi is missing ten Hours later, her sister Feng Zhenzhen chose to call the police. The police quickly found Feng Qianqian at Dungeness Corner and rescued her. It almost died, the Red Lion was completely misled by Yan Funing, and focused all its attention on the English Channel and France on the other side, and launched a search in the Channel and the coast of France, which allowed Yan Funing to escape to Birmingham and hide."

Cheng Mo shook his head and sighed: "Reverse thinking is easy to say, but it can easily become a stupid joke when it is actually implemented. Yan Funing is really amazing. Under such circumstances, he has the courage to give up the most likely way of life. It has been arranged for a long time. Most people just habitually choose the path they have already thought about in order to survive, but he chose to go to Birmingham, where the future is bleak, is a big bet."

"Just like you, he is the most outstanding talent in our new generation of Tai Chi Dragons. Li Jiting said that in the future, he is optimistic about you and Yan Funing. It is precisely because of his optimism that you and Yan Funing will be placed in a competitive position." In terms of training, as the backup team leader of the Qianlong team. In the past two years, Li Jiting has paid more and more attention to Yan Funing, and said that Yan Funing is more suitable to take over his class, because Yan Funing does not seem to have any weaknesses."

Cheng Mo said lightly: "As long as a person has weaknesses, whether it is me or him."

"Yes." Bai Xiuxiu sighed, "If he has been hiding in Birmingham until the Red Lion's search force weakens, and then swims from Great Britain to France, then it can be said that there is no danger at all, as long as he is careful, he can definitely complete it smoothly." Fleeing. But in February, Yan Funing didn’t dare to use his mobile phone or computer in order not to be discovered, so he had no way to get in touch with the organization. During this period, his sister Yan Yitong went abroad. We didn’t notice the situation, so we didn’t able to stop in time”

Things really happened as he expected, but Cheng Mo was very uncomfortable, he never thought that one day he would feel sorry for Yan Yitong, like a knife twisted, he frowned, suppressing his dissatisfaction and said: "So something happened to Yan Yitong?"

"Yes, I disappeared in Sydney last month." Bai Xiuxiu could hear the anger in Cheng Mo's heart, and explained softly, "As for the protection of the family members of Taijilong members, our Taijilong has detailed rules and regulations, don't Let’s talk about him, my family members also don’t have key security, only ordinary level security monitoring, otherwise Xiaomei would not be able to go to France casually.”

Cheng Mo thought for a while, and what Bai Xiuxiu said was indeed correct, "I know, if there are so many members and so many family members, it is impossible to protect each of them." This kind of thing has a high probability of success if you do it with your heart or not. He sighed, "It seems that the news hasn't been reported yet?"

"It's suppressed." Bai Xiuxiu said, "There will be no reports for the time being."

Cheng Mo raised his hand and rubbed his frowning brows, and said helplessly, "So the current situation is that Yan Yitong was arrested by the Red Lions in Sydney, and used to threaten Yan Funing, and then Yan Funing really surrendered?"

Bai Xiuxiu nodded and said, "As far as we know, it's probably so."

"perhaps?"

"The kangaroo has had a bad relationship with our Taiji dragon these years. It has become much more difficult for us to obtain information than before. Most of the channels for obtaining information have been cut off. It is also difficult to verify the authenticity and reliability of the information.”

"Okay!" Cheng Mo shrugged his shoulders, "Tell me what I need to do?"

Bai Xiuxiu said with a serious expression: "We hope you can save Yan Funing."

"Save Yan Funing?" Cheng Mo pointed to himself, "Me?"

"According to the news we have received, Yan Funing is currently locked up in a convalescent prison for the chosen ones called 'Winter Palace'. This prison is the most mysterious prison in the world, where countless famous chosen ones are imprisoned, and these days Most of the chosen ones have one thing in common, that is, they hide their own Uroboros in order to save their own lives. Because they know that if they speak out, they may die, so these people will definitely not be willing to die Tell the whereabouts of the hidden Uroboros. When this happens, they will be sent to the "Winter Palace". The "Winter Palace" maintains an absolutely neutral position in the other world. Winter Palace, they will protect the lives of the chosen ones and give them a comfortable life. But in exchange, on the day of death, the chosen ones must hand over their hidden Uroboros."

Cheng Mo said in astonishment: "There is such a place?"

"Yes, it's just that very few people know that this is an S-class secret in Taijilong."

"Where is the 'Winter Palace'?"

Bai Xiuxiu shook her head, "Like the Garden of Eden, it is one of the two great mysteries of the other world, and no one knows where it is."

Cheng Mo spread his hands, "Then how can I save it?"

Bai Xiuxiu was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Napoleon VII sent a message through the French envoy, saying that he hoped that we would hand you over for the sake of Xiafa friendship, and he promised not to kill you." She lowered her head and avoided into Cheng Mo's sight, "It will only lock you up in the Winter Palace for a lifetime!"

Cheng Mo also lowered his head, staring at the red food box on the table, with a big environmental protection label on it. Nowadays, all ingredients must be made in China to be reassuring, so high-end restaurants will use domestic products as gimmicks.In silence, he picked up the chopsticks and put a saury on the plate. First, he confirmed the position of the fishing line on the side of the fish, then pressed the chopsticks in from the head, peeled the fish from the inside, and finally clamped the fish head, and gently pulled out the whole fishbone.

In this way, a whole saury without fish bones appeared on the plate.

Cheng Mo picked up the saury whose bones had been removed, put it on Bai Xiuxiu's plate and said, "Sister Xi taught me the method of removing the bones of saury. This is the first time I have used it, and it is also the first time for others to remove the fish." bone."

Bai Xiuxiu stared at the saury on the plate, and said in a low voice: "I didn't make you agree. I think maybe you should choose to stay in the country and accept the review of the 'Chosen Review Committee'. Nothing dangerous."

Cheng Mo still didn't speak, and picked up another saury and began to bone it.

The hot wind in early summer hovers in the orange light of the setting sun, wrinkling the blue waves in the soup pool and making the green ginkgo leaves rustle.In the warm evening photos, under the old eaves, Cheng Mo's movements are calm and soothing, with a sense of art penetrating life.

"There's nothing wrong with being alive." Bai Xiuxiu held up her glass and said, "What's more, you have experienced so much, you should live in peace."

"I remember watching some TV series produced by Xiangjiang when I was young, either 'Anti-Qing and Fuming', or 'The Great Wall Will Never Fall'. It is difficult for children nowadays to imagine how the main theme of Xiangjiang's TV series and movies was, even The theme songs of these TV dramas are also the theme songs that promote positive energy. For example, the theme song of the TV drama Chen Zhen is called "The Queen Is China", and there is another song called "Travel to Tiger Mountain". I remember that my father really likes Michelle , occasionally hum a few lines of this song, but I can’t remember a single line of this song now.”

Bai Xiuxiu smiled and sang, "Stay! Hey, stay!"

"Generation gap!" Cheng Mo said softly.

Bai Xiuxiu raised her hand as if she wanted to hit Cheng Mo's head, but she turned around halfway through the movement and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the fish.

While Bai Xiuxiu was chewing slowly, Cheng Mo drank all the wine in the glass, "I used to sneer at the story of Huo Yuanjia and Chen Zhen, but now I feel that the feelings of family and country are indeed an important element of our great national spirit , is an important spiritual foundation that differentiates us from other countries. Because the history of other countries has never experienced disasters and rebirth from the ashes again and again like our national civilization.”

Bai Xiuxiu also raised her cup and sighed: "Yes! The bloody ruts and bones under the wheel of history all remind us that we will be beaten when we fall behind. The tribulations experienced by our nation always spur us to move forward. Because no country knows better than us that only through self-improvement can past failures become a standing foundation, not a reincarnation in history.”

Cheng Mo put down his cup, took a deep breath and said, "It is my duty to revive the glory of China!"

Bai Xiuxiu stared at Cheng Mo, picked up the jug, closed her eyes and said softly, "I'll pour wine for the hero."
