Picturesque mountains and rivers of the motherland

Shandong map, Confucian Temple.

It was raining lightly.

The raindrops fell on the yellow tiles and vermilion eaves, like amber solidifying history.

Beside the ancient well in the poetry auditorium, the young man in red danced with his clothes flying, not paying any attention to the falling rain, and his high ponytail flung a beautiful arc in the air.

"Lubi." A male voice called out.

The boy in red stopped at the sound, and trot forward in surprise, but stopped when he saw two people walking side by side.

Lu Bi looked at the man beside Bai Ting, with deep eyes and well-dressed clothes, he was disgusting at first glance.

Lu Bi: "I have strictly implemented the weekends and weekends, and the nine-to-five system. Socialism does not emphasize the exploitation of capital."

Bai Ting couldn't laugh or cry: "But socialism emphasizes active dedication."

Lu Bi arrogantly "hummed".

Bai Ting took out a stack of books from his bag: "The hardcover edition of "Federal Chronicle" is here for you."

Lu Bi's pride lasted for half a minute, his eyes fixed on the book, and he finally let go: "This is not an example."

Bai Ting informs Lu Bi of Lou Kaimo's need to recover the lost memory.

Lu Bi pinched his fingers for a while, and said: "If you want to open the dusty memory, you only need to go to Jinci Nanlaoquan and drink the water of Nanlaoquan together."

Bai Ting:? ? ?

It’s okay to go to Jinci, and it’s okay to drink the water from Nanlaoquan. The problem is what happens when we join hands?

Could it be that two people drink Mengpo soup under the Naihe Bridge, and the Mengpo soup also tells "hi, guys, let's drink the soup together, friendship will make the Mengpo soup more delicious!"

Bai Ting: "Can't Lou Kaimo drink it by himself?"

What should I do if I have no need and take medicine when I am not sick?

Lu Bi shook his head, and said a bunch of words such as "transmission medium", "spiritual induction", "spiritual medium of trusted people", which made Bai Ting confused.All in all, "If two people hold hands and drink spring water, it will have no effect at all."

Bai Ting: "Okay, hold hands as long as you hold hands, there will be no side effects, right?"

Lu Bi: "Yes." Without thinking, he was decisive.

Bai Ting: ...

Lubi explained: "There may be some uncontrollable situations, but this situation will not last for too long."

Lou Kaimo didn't want to embarrass Bai Ting: "Forget it."

Bai Ting: "It's all about drinking spring water together, not blowing up bunkers together, what are you afraid of?"

Lou Kaimo: "But there will be uncontrollable situations?"

Bai Ting: "China is all in my heart, how uncontrollable it can be."

The great motherland can still cheat me.

When Lou Kaimo and Bai Ting walked away, Lu Bi counted again and shook his head: "It seems to be a little troublesome, Boss Bai, I hope you are lucky."

Jinci Temple, located in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province, has the reputation of "Taiyuan is in vain if you don't go to Jinci Temple".

When Bai Ting went to Jinci for the first time before crossing, he thought it was an ordinary ancestral hall similar to the Dabangbo Ancestral Hall in Huangshan City and the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall in Guangzhou City.But as soon as you step on the third bridge in front of Jinci Gate, you will be shocked by its vastness.

There are three wonders in the Jinci Temple, the Hall of the Notre Dame, Qi Nianbai and Nanlaoquan.

Bai Ting and Lou Kaimo walked across the white marble arch bridge, crossed the antique pavilions and pavilions, and soon came to the edge of Nanlaoquan.

Lou Kaimo looked at the bubbling spring water: "'Nanlaoquan, what a good name.'"

Bai Ting nodded in agreement: "Everyone says 'Feng Tang is old, Li Guang is hard to seal', one of the saddest things in the world is getting old. Difficult to grow old, what a wonderful expectation."

The Spring of Difficulty in Aging, its name comes from the phrase "Eternal Giving Difficulty in Aging" in "The Book of Songs".Nanlaoquan has abundant water throughout the year, even in the dry season it still flows continuously.

Legend has it that there was once a virtuous daughter-in-law Liu Shi in the local area, who had to trek through mountains and rivers to fetch water every day after being made hard by her mother-in-law.A fairy admired and felt sorry for her, so he gave her a golden horsewhip. Just put the horsewhip in the water tank, and when you lift the horsewhip, the water tank will be full, but don't lift the horsewhip completely.Since then, the virtuous daughter-in-law no longer has to carry water from afar.

However, the mother-in-law who loves to find faults does not want to make it so easy, and wants to burn the horsewhip. When the horsewhip is raised, water gushes out from the mouth of the tank continuously, and the whole village becomes a vast ocean.

The daughter-in-law who just came back saw that when she sat up, the water trickled out from the bottom of the tank and stopped gushing.And the Liu family also turned into a fairy.In order to commemorate Liu's family, people built a "jellyfish building" beside the spring.

Lou Kaimo scooped up a bucket of water: "This spring water is really endless."

Yongquan has always been a major feature of Nanlaoquan, but due to the drop in water level and other reasons, the spring Bai Ting saw before crossing is no longer a natural spring, but pumped out to appease tourists from afar.

And this spring of difficulty for old age in a foreign land is indeed a natural force gushing out.

Bai Ting smelled it, the spring water was sweet and had no peculiar smell, so there was no need to treat it again.

"Shall we each scoop up a cup and drink it?" Bai Ting asked.

Lou Kaimo nodded, handed over the water glass, and took Bai Ting's hand.

The palms are warm and slightly sweating.

Bai Ting drank it all in one gulp, the cool and sweet spring water was refreshing.

Bai Ting glanced at Lou Kaimo beside him, who had his eyes closed and seemed to be meditating.

"How?" Bai Ting asked for confirmation.

The other party did not answer.

Are you starting to recover your memory?Bai Ting thought about it without interrupting, and looked around by himself.

The buildings with ancient rhyme have lost the mottledness of the years, as well as the ups and downs of the literati and elegant guests. After a long time, they are still majestic and majestic.

Bai Ting was looking at Zhang Langta, and suddenly felt the scene in front of him change.

==

A small white lamp with weak light hangs above the head, like the moon that has forgotten to store electricity.

The night wind blows in through the gap in the wall, and the world becomes empty.

Bai Ting looked around.

This is a dilapidated room with cold metal walls.The house was empty, without any decorations.Only a little boy was huddled in the corner, with his arms around his knees, and his face buried deep between his knees.

Bai Ting greeted: "Hi."

no response.

Bai Ting walked to his side, stretched out his hand, and wanted to pat the little boy, but found that his arm passed through the boy's body without hindrance.

Well, it's not a dream, it's a hallucination.Bai Ting accepted it calmly.

Maybe it's the side effect that Lubi said?

Could this little boy be Lou Kaimo?

Bai Ting didn't intend to do more useless work, so he simply sat beside the little boy and meditated.

I do not know how long it has been.

A crack opened in the wall, and a thin middle-aged woman in simple clothes walked into the door.

Bai Ting opened his eyes, and the little boy raised his head.

Sure enough, it was Lou Kaimo who I had seen in the video before.

Lou Kaimo propped up his body with some difficulty, and took two steps forward, his steps were vain.He was wearing a gray sweater with an oversized size. It was originally a wide cut, and it became more and more empty under the child's slender body.

Lou Kaimo's feet suddenly went limp, and he fell forward. Bai Ting rushed forward to help him, but he watched helplessly as the other fell into his body.

The middle-aged woman stepped forward to help Lou Kaimo up: "Momo, does it hurt?"

Lou Kaimo was silent.

The middle-aged woman took out a set of folding tables and chairs and a table of packed meals from the storage.

"Mo Mo, it's Auntie who is sorry for you. Auntie promises that if you suffer for another three or five days, everything will be over." The middle-aged woman said.

The child didn't answer, just swallowed the food silently, swallowing very hard.

Bai Ting didn't like the oppressive atmosphere, so he joked: "Mr. Lou, your quality of knowing the current affairs and being a hero is indeed cultivated from a young age. Look at the kidnapped children who don't drink water and only know how to cry. From a young age, I knew that everything should be filled first.”

It's a pity that no one listened to him, and no one echoed his ridicule, only the sound of the cold wind whimpering outside the house, and the silent chewing sound in the room.

==

Bai Ting stayed in the dark room for three days, and finally understood the ins and outs.

The kidnapping of Lou Kaimo by a middle-aged woman was not for money, nor was it a sudden loss of heart, but to save her only son who had gone astray.

This only son was the murderous maniac captured on Mount Wutai earlier.

The only son seemed to have offended someone, and the other party asked his mother to bring Lou Kaimo to redeem him after knowing that his mother was working as a housekeeper in the Lou family.

Although the housekeeper loves her son dearly, she can't do such a heartless thing.

Unexpectedly, the other party compromised first, saying that he just wanted Lou Kaimo to do an experiment, which would not harm Lou Kaimo's health, and she could accompany and observe during the experiment.

The tone of the other party was as gentle as if it was an academic invitation.

The only son may be greedy for life and afraid of death, or he may be unfilial by nature, and repeatedly threatens and lures his mother in the video.

The housekeeper is usually a sensible person, but under the brainwashing offensive of soft and hard, her psychological defense and reason collapsed at the same time.She believed the gangster's lies, like a terminally ill patient pinning her hopes on the gods.

Lou's family has strict guards, and ordinary people can't get close to Lou Kaimo at all.The housekeeper won the trust of Lou's family, and took advantage of the opportunity of taking Lou Kaimo to do field training, and took him away from the Lou's house through the smuggling shipping planned by the gangsters.

In order to avoid the massive search by Lou's family, the housekeeper could only take Lou Kaimo to hide in a no-man's land where there were no patrolling police and it was not easy to be detected by sky eyes.

The food on the table was delicious and delicious. It could be seen that the housekeeper wanted to give Lou Kaimo the best under the limited conditions.

Lou Kaimo remained silent, with a look of smugness.

Housekeeper: "Mo Mo, we will transfer to another flight tomorrow and we will arrive at our destination. They only need to measure your data and they can leave right away."

Lou Kaimo still didn't speak.

Bai Ting couldn't eat the food on the table, so he could only support his chin with his hands, and said to the housekeeper: "You are too naive, you are all gangsters, where is there room for bargaining?"

Based on the past few days of getting along, Bai Ting has a good feeling for the housekeeper, and he can understand why Lou Kaimo, who was "cold in the world and blames me in the world" when he was a child, treats the housekeeper differently.

After the meal, the housekeeper took Lou Kaimo and set off.Bai Ting hurriedly followed.

They walked out of the desolate no-man's land, disguised themselves through the busy city, and boarded a private spaceship with a secret order.

What surprised Bai Ting was that the direction the spaceship flew was actually the central star.

Shouldn't the base of the most vicious criminals be high and far away from the political center?What is the operation in Central Star?The ultimate art of darkness under the lamp?

Bai Ting was too lazy to think about what had happened, it was useless to think about it.

After a long journey, the smuggled spaceship finally landed on the central star, and the housekeeper and Lou Kaimo boarded a very tightly sheltered flying car.

Before crossing, Bai Ting had mastered a skill during the long journey through mountains and rivers. He could judge the approximate itinerary based on his perception, the angle of the vehicle's inclination, and the friction with the ground.

Bai Ting closed his eyes, trying to perceive the route, but failed.

He discovered one thing, it turned out that he did not travel through time and space, nor was he in an illusion, but lived in Lou Kaimo's memory.

What he saw and felt were Lou Kaimo's feelings at that time, because Bai Ting couldn't detect the existence that Lou Kaimo didn't remember, such as the route.

After a long time, when Bai Ting fell asleep, they arrived at their destination.

The connector was a thin, gentle man with glasses, more like a scholar than a gangster.

The housekeeper obviously breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't take it lightly, and resolutely did not allow the other party to let Lou Kaimo out of her sight.

Bai Ting followed Lou Kaimo, feeling complicated.

The beautiful boy had no expression on his face, Bai Ting couldn't figure out what he was thinking.Since you can perceive the other party's memory, why not perceive the other party's mood by the way?

Perhaps still undecided?

Perhaps still trusting the housekeeper with all his heart?

Maybe the little man mentality intends to help solve the troubles?

Accompanied by the two, Bai Ting stayed in the base for three days and three nights. They had three meals a day, ate, drank and sedated, and had regular checkups. It was exactly as the gangsters said, they were just invited to do a test.

On the fourth day.

into the night.

Not knowing whether it was childlike innocence, curiosity, or simply being bored and wanting to move around, Lou Kaimo pushed open the door of the room and quietly walked into the depths of the base.

Bai Ting followed him.

Xiaobanlou Kaimo has a flexible body, using terrain and supernatural powers to hide his whereabouts, even dodging several waves of people walking on the aisle.Walking to a dead end, Lou Kaimo realized that he had nowhere to hide, and retreated into several metal cars.

A few minutes later, the sound of footsteps came one after another, and someone was transporting a metal car, moving forward slowly.

After a long time, when Bai Ting couldn't help yawning, the metal car stopped.

Another burst of fiddling.

Fortunately, this group of people did not open the metal car and did not find Lou Kaimo.

When the sound of footsteps faded away and the surrounding was deathly silent, Lou Kaimo felt the surrounding environment attentively, and after confirming that there was no abnormal movement, he rolled over from the metal car.

Bai Ting rolled out of the car with him, lost control of his posture, and fell on his back.

Bai Ting was not annoyed, he just lay leisurely on the ground, looking at Lou Kaimo with a dull expression.

"Why, squatting for too long and your feet are numb?"

Lou Kaimo naturally wouldn't respond.

Bai Ting shook his feet leisurely and didn't get up in a hurry, but after a while, he felt something different.

Lou Kaimo's expression became more and more strange, as if he was mourning his concubine.

Bai Ting got up from the ground and looked around.It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, just looking at it, I vomited out the overnight meal.

Rows of huge containers contained naked people, all of them with only the lower three-quarters of their faces left, and the brains and skulls were additionally placed in adjacent small containers.

At a glance, there are about 300 people.

In addition to these carefully placed containers, the irregularly placed containers are even more disgusting.

Human limbs are spliced ​​with various strange animal parts, small ones like tongues are spliced ​​with strange insects, and big ones like heads are transplanted onto the torsos of giant creatures.

And the most frightening and shocking thing is the intersection of Lou Kaimo's line of sight, which is a huge isolation room.

The isolation room is made of a material similar to glass, and people outside can clearly see the inside.

There are several living people inside, more specifically, monsters that are spliced ​​with alien animal parts, which look like humans but are not human.

Unlike the containers that are discarded at will, they are alive.

The people in the glass room were in pain, roaring and struggling. A middle-aged man whose back was inlaid like a fly's wings saw Lou Kaimo and roared and slapped on the glass door.

Lou Kaimo's face was pale and he didn't move.

Bai Tingyu couldn't bear it, and suppressed the nausea in his body, walked to Xiaobanlou Kaimo, knelt down, and gently covered his eyes.

He knew it was useless.

He could feel Lou Kaimo's trembling.

Suddenly there was the sound of metal colliding outside the house.Lou Kaimo hurriedly dodged back to the metal car.

There was another bang, and fortunately, this group of people still did not find Lou Kaimo's whereabouts, or maybe Lou Kaimo has related abilities to hide his aura.

The metal car was sent out again.After a while, stop.

There was another long silence.

Lou Kaimo escaped from the metal car, stumbled back to the housekeeper, and woke up the housekeeper who was soundly asleep.

The housekeeper was a little surprised, you know, Lou Kaimo has kept silent to her for several days.

Lou Kaimo quickly told what he saw and heard.

If these words came from other brats, most adults would not believe them, but from Lou Kai Mo's mouth, the housekeeper knew the seriousness of the matter.

She is also a supernatural person, maybe not a high level, but she has some skills.

Lou Kaimo is not a drag, or even a help.

The two stumbled and escaped from the base. Fortunately, the base thought it was under control and did not strictly guard it.

The two had a clear goal and reported directly to the Central Star Police Station.

The night wind howled, and the sound of the wind was like a shrill cry.The journey seemed extremely long, and the stars were shaking and the ground was sluggish.

After running for an unknown amount of time, the two finally found a connecting traffic.

The authenticators of the two had been destroyed when they arrived at the central star, and the two had to ask passers-by for help.

Soon, the people from the police station came in a mighty way.

Lou Kaimo was rejoicing, when suddenly, a beam of light energy penetrated the female housekeeper's forehead.

The bullet is extremely fast, with little to no blood seeping.

The last thing Bai Ting saw was Lou Kaimo's frightened, angry, and desperate face, as if all the bitterness in the world had melted together.

==

When Bai Ting felt that the hall was bright again, he was surrounded by old trees and ancient walls of Jinci Temple, and the plaque of Nanlaoquan "Jinyang No. [-] Spring" was shining brightly in the sun.

Finally back, Bai Ting heaved a sigh of relief, thinking of the picture in the illusion, he felt lingering fear.

It's no wonder that Lou Kaimo puts on a face that no strangers should enter all day long. Whoever had this experience in childhood is probably either crazy or stupid. Without anti-social personality, he is already Lou Kaimo with strong willpower.

Bai Ting suddenly felt that his attitude towards Lou Kaimo was much softer.

When you think that the other party is a proud Samuume, you will ask him to "Bloom alone in Ling Han", but you will not shout "Bloom for me, bloom a huge flower" to a different kind of silk flower that does not want to cling to a big tree. flowers!"

Of course, it is ridiculous to compare Lou Kaimo to Cusihua.

Bai Ting sighed softly, and turned sideways to comfort Lou Kaimo, but found that there was nothing in the head-up sight, and the hand feeling was not quite right.

Bai Ting gradually lowered his head, and saw the immature and beautiful face in the illusion.

Bai Ting looked at the shrunken Lou Kaimo, he was indeed cute.Facts have proved that good-looking people are good-looking when they are young, and it is a small probability that they will change when they grow up.

Bai Ting knelt down and couldn't help teasing Lou Kaimo: "President Lou, it seems that your side effects are getting smaller, how do you feel?"

The childish Banlou Kaimo stared at him, his eyes were bright and pure like a starry sky.

"Who are you? Where's Butler An?"

Bai Ting was terrified.

Brother, isn't it, playing so big?
