Su Teng's eyelashes opened slowly, Du Leding was caught off guard, and saw his speechless expression in his innermost pupil.

His eyes are different from those of ordinary people, like a planet with a high-speed hurricane swept across its surface. Duledin feels as if he is in the vast universe, looking at the surface of this planet from a distance of hundreds of millions of light years, as the center of the mysterious and changing hurricane. , The magnificent and charming colors are slightly lost.

"You've woken up a long time ago?" Du Leding was stunned for a long time, raised his eyebrows and said, "Just listen to me talking all the time?"

Su Teng's eyes were bent, forming a beautiful arc: "Well, I want to listen to it for a while, it's very soothing."

Du Leding: "..." Shameless, I have never seen such a brazen person!He wants to denounce the bad nature of the capitalists, and criticize their attitude of playing in the world from the root.

After a moment of bewildered silence, Du Leding said without words: "How do you feel, does the wound hurt?"

"Fortunately," Su Teng said lightly, "the drugs in the infusion contain sedatives and painkillers. I don't have much time to wake up. If you confess your love, you have to hurry up."

"..." Du Leding felt that he came at a bad time, and Su Teng caught up with Su Teng when he was sober for a while.

"I heard from Snow that your body has undergone genetic modification, what kind of cytoskeleton." Du Leding couldn't help but glanced at Su Teng's muscular arm, "Aren't you a robot?"

Su Teng lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "It's just a modification to allow liquid nanometal to cover the bones and connect with neurons."

Su Teng had no expression on his face, and his tone didn't fluctuate, but Du Leding was sensitively aware that he didn't want to talk about it.

Perhaps those experiences were not very beautiful memories for Su Teng.

Du Leding also had something he didn't want to recall, so he stopped asking about it, pointed to his neck and said, "See, the collar is gone."

Su Teng raised his eyelids, and the faint smile that had dissipated just now slowly gathered again.His peach blossom eyes are usually as cold as ice, and there is an endless ice field in his eyes, only at this time, one after another seductive peach blossoms fly out from the corners of his eyes.

Du Le Ding grabbed the orange on the bedside, and while peeling it, he pretended to say: "As the saying goes, a good man loses his horse. He doesn't know whether it's a blessing or a curse. That broken collar actually saved my life."

Before being used as bait and falling into the water in the giant belly mountain, Du Le Ding once felt a sudden shock on his neck, as if someone had swung a hammer.Thinking about it afterwards, the man in the mask probably missed his arrow and hit him in the neck.

The collar blocked the fatal blow for him, and he was smashed to pieces.

Du Leding stuffed a piece of orange into his mouth, curled his lips and said with a smile: "I don't know whether to thank you, or thank the man in the mask for that arrow."

"Thank you." Su Teng blinked slowly.

Du Leding was puzzled: "Thank me for what?"

Su Teng: "Thank you for being alive."

Du Leding pursed his lips, the orange juice splashed in his mouth was sour and sweet, and the taste was very delicious.Su Teng's words were often shallow and profound, even Du Leding's face was like a city wall, and it collapsed thousands of miles away.

He silently rebuilt the wall of shame, brick by brick, and changed the subject: "Are you tired? If you are tired, go to sleep. I'll go see Knight."

"Not tired." Su Teng lay in one position for a long time, feeling a little uncomfortable, and moved a little on the bed, "I don't want you to go."

The half-built city wall that Du Leding had just built tilted in the wind, crackling and collapsing again.He broke off a piece of orange and stuffed it into Su Teng's mouth, and said with an unnatural expression: "Is President Su acting like a spoiled child to me? I'm a bit square."

Su Teng smiled again and bent his eyes, staring at Du Leding, chewing the orange slice in his mouth.

"If you're not tired," Du Leding seemed to have rebuilt the "city defense" without avoiding Su Teng's sight, "tell me about your eyes."

From before to now, Du Leding has made various speculations about Su Teng's eyes, such as mutation, or the side effects of genetic modification, etc., and even exaggeratedly assumed that Su Teng was actually poisoned.

So when Su Teng began to tell the story behind these eyes, Du Leding was very surprised.

"My eyes are genetic." Su Teng said lightly.

Any creature, including nocturnal creatures, such as cats, wolves, and owls, cannot see in absolute darkness. In the middle of the night, at least natural light such as starlight must be used to get enough light stimulation to trigger the eye. Feel.

But Su Teng's vision obviously does not need any light stimulation, and in a completely enclosed space like a coffin box, his vision is not hindered in the slightest.

Such miraculous eyes should be full of bizarre and mysterious stories behind them, but Su Teng's simple words shattered all the fantasists' imaginations.

Du Leding propped his face with one hand, and made a raised and lowered eyebrow expression, as if complaining, "I've taken off my trousers, so just show me this." A pair of 'Night Vision Goggles'."

Su Teng propped up his arms and wanted to sit up, but Du Leding quickly supported him and said, "Are you suffering from ADHD, why don't you just lie down?"

"If you lie down again, you will have hemiplegia." Su Teng joked, and turned to look at Du Leding, who was very close to him, "I want to see you more clearly."

After saying this, he obviously felt Du Leding's hand on his shoulder tightened.

Du Leding is a little irritable, a little restless, a bit like a cicada that has been dormant underground for 17 years, feeling the call of the destined spring, eager to emerge from the ground.

He concealed the anxiety in his heart, and said in a tone that he always didn't care about anything: "You are so funny, and it's not that I just met, what's so interesting about me."

Su Teng said flatly, "I haven't seen you for three days."

Du Leding understood immediately, there were four words hidden in this sentence - I miss you.

Du Leding looked down at the young and beautiful face in front of him, and soon lost the eye-to-eye game of "see who blinks first", sat back on the chair stiffly, and sighed deeply in his heart.More than calm, he actually lost to this young man in his early twenties, which made him feel so embarrassing.

"Continue to talk about the eyes," Du Leding pinched the bridge of his nose, and said resentfully, "Is this the case for generations in your family?"

Su Teng withdrew his gaze and stared at the snow-white sheets without focus: "No. My grandfather got a very strange thing by accident, and everything about eyes started from that thing."

Su Teng looked out of the window with a calm expression, and said leisurely: "My grandfather was an explorer in his early years. He has been to many rare places and found a lot of strange collections."

Du Leding smacked his lips, regretting that he didn't have a handful of melon seeds or half a watermelon in his hand.

Su Teng said magically: "Once, he found a very strange 'stone' in a ruins. Its surface was red, and there were three naturally formed circles on it. He was very interested in it, so he took it Pack it up and take it home."

Duledin shook his head—this is the difference between an explorer and a grave robber. The former is always looking for fun and surprises, while the latter is just panning for gold.

Su Teng: "After he brought this stone back, he never had the opportunity to test its composition, because it didn't take long for the doomsday crisis to erupt."

The city where Su Teng's grandfather was located was also blocked, just like the reporter Charlie mentioned.The residents of the whole city are in panic. Facing the temperature rising, the air becoming more and more polluted, and the walking dead constantly threatening their lives, survival has become the only problem worth thinking about.

"At first, my grandfather didn't pay much attention to it. After a while, he realized that his eyes were getting better and better in low light."

It is precisely because of this that during countless escapes and fights in the dark, he has relied on his special vision many times to survive unscathed.

"My grandfather and my grandmother met during that period, so it's true friendship in adversity." Su Teng said, "Later, the cruel truth was exposed, the city blockade was broken by people who were unwilling to be experiments, and the virus spread rapidly around the world. The real end has begun."

"Some people managed to escape by chance and took a spaceship to the Mars space station. My grandfather and grandmother were among them. Later, they came to Miller Star and settled in the capital of the Deman Empire."

After Su Teng's grandfather settled down in life, he forgot about the "stone".Until one day, he saw a small pupil in his eye.

Speaking of this, Su Teng turned his face and stared at Du Le Ding with those strange eyes. There was a void of darkness in his eyes, which made Du Le Ding feel that there seemed to be deeper secrets hidden in this darkness.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------

The wind and rain were blowing outside the window, and the temperature in the restaurant suddenly dropped a few degrees.

After five seconds of silence, Shi Qianjin restrained her turbulent air like a nuclear leak, put on a cynical and upright face, and pressed the man's business card on the table, her voice was as abrupt as if she couldn't hold back Ba Gao: "I don't know if the high-ranking people like to have nothing to do and play around with others, but as the president of such a big company, it's really disrespectful to be punctual and trustworthy. What do you think, Mr. Song?"

If it were an ordinary person, most of them would be aggrieved because of each other's identities and relationships.But Shi Qianjin has type B blood, and the rule of "patience" is not included in his survival rules.

The lines at the corners of Song Zheng's eyes spread to his temples, and he said with a nonchalant smile, "Didn't I sit here with you all the time?"

"Ha!" Shi Qianjin let out a sarcastic laugh, and asked in a questioning tone, "So Miss Secretary lied to me by saying that Mr. Song is holding a board meeting?"

"That's not true." Song Zheng said slyly, "The meeting upstairs is too dull and boring, so I secretly skipped work. Can you keep it a secret for me?"

Shi Qianjin was furious: "Wouldn't it be interesting to keep watching me foolishly waiting, Mr. Song really knows how to pass the time!"

"No way," Song Zheng said in a helpless tone, "Rainscapes and beauties are the beautiful scenery I admire the most, and I am fascinated by them accidentally. I just want time to stand still so that I can look at them for a while longer."

For Shi Qianjin, apart from the many attractive features before, this kind of man has a characteristic that makes him extremely troublesome.

Unlike Su Teng, a young man who hasn't completely degenerated, Song Zheng is already a fully mature finished product.

This kind of man is rich in experience, sophisticated and sophisticated, and can see through the most vulnerable parts of people's hearts at a glance.And the scheming is as deep as the sea, the glib tongue and the carefully matched expression and tone can easily defeat a person's defense line and guard, and play with his mind and mind in the palm of his hand.

Getting along with this kind of man is equivalent to a game, you come and go, step by step, if you are careless, you will fall into a trap that will never be restored.

Shi Qianjin's heart thumped, but she still smelled a dangerous breath.He grabbed his backpack and got up to say goodbye: "Boss Song slowly appreciates the rain scene, so I won't bother you."

Then he walked out.When passing by Song Zheng, Song Zheng suddenly grabbed his wrist, stood up and said, "Don't rush away, don't you still want to report the progress of the research project to me?"

Shi Qianjin sneered and said, "Boss Song is not interested in coming."

"Then you are wrong," Song Zheng said with a smile, "I was very interested in you the first time I saw you."

He paused for two seconds, then added a sentence that sounded superfluous but was unnecessary: ​​"For your research project."

These two seconds are enough to make people imagine and shake their minds.Shi Qianjin bit her lip, let out a breath, broke her wrist out of Song Zheng's hand, returned to the sofa chair and sat down, took out the computer from her bag and turned it on, and said routinely: "The matter of Tong Wancheng, there is some progress."

Song Zheng walked up to Shi Qianjin as if he didn't hear it, took off his suit jacket calmly, and put it on him: "When I grabbed your wrist just now, I felt that your body temperature was a little low."

Then he returned to his seat in a personable manner, raised one leg and sat upright, looked at Shi Qianjin calmly and calmly, and beckoned him to continue.

The coat was mixed with Song Zheng's body temperature and a touch of woody fragrance. Shi Qianjin clenched and loosened her hands on her lap, sliding her Adam's apple twice, and tried to calmly point to the screen on the screen and said: "This symbol , does not belong to Tongwan City, but comes from a country called 'Nanfeng' in the Central Plains. This jade box should be the spoils of war in Helian Bobo's conquest."

Tongwan City was the capital of the Xiongnu Empire established by the Huxia Emperor Helian Bobo in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.Song Zheng saw a jade box unearthed from Tongwan City in an underground auction house that only allowed a few members to enter. The symbols carved on it aroused his interest.

It happened that Shi Qianjin was studying the history of the Xiongnu at that time, and contacted Zhengtu through various relationships. Song Zheng agreed to sponsor him to carry out the research project on the condition that he find out the hidden meaning behind this symbol.

Shi Qianjin's slender fingers slid across the screen, and drew out the next picture, which was a palm-sized emerald jade box, and there was a figure on the top of the box, which was exactly the same as the one on the forehead of Princess Wushan's mask.

He pointed to the figure and said: "At first glance, this figure looks like two crescents touching each other and buckling together, but I think it is actually an eye. The outer circle is the eyelid, and the inner circle is the pupil. There should have been something else."

The same is true for the mask Su Teng saw. It may have been worn out over the years, or it may have been artificially destroyed, and the glued things in the circle pattern fell off.

Song Zheng nodded: "Is there any basis?"

"If it's definite evidence, then I really don't have it," Shi Qianjin said seriously, "because there is no relevant record in the official history, and there are almost no traces of everything related to it in history."

Song Zheng was very patient, and did not interrupt at this time, quietly waiting for the next sentence.

"All the information comes from unofficial unofficial history." Shi Qianjin looked directly at Song Zheng provocatively, "If Mr. Song thinks these investigations are valuable, you can continue to fund my investigation. If Mr. Song thinks it is a waste of time, then Our contract ends here."

His tone and attitude are not like "Party B" at all, but like an industry giant who can bankrupt Wang's company at any time.

Song Zheng smiled slightly: "I'm a businessman, so naturally I won't do business at a loss. Please continue, I'm all ears."

Shi Qianjin drew the next picture again. In the picture is a tall and luxuriant tree with "double-pupil" eyes all over the thick trunk: "Nanfeng Kingdom existed for a very short time in history. four monarchs. The mother of the last one came from a very ancient and primitive people—the Wang clan.”

The Wang people are a strange people who have lived underground for generations, except for regular night hunting to obtain meat and important sacrifices, they basically do not go to the ground.

Living in the dark underground for a long time has caused their eyes to change. They no longer adapt to light, and rely more on hearing and other keen senses.

The degenerated vision has been passed down from generation to generation. Over time, developed vision has become an extremely important ability for them, and even made them worship the "eye".

Shi Qianjin stared at the big tree with "double pupils" all over the trunk on the screen - this kind of tree is called "Yujing Shenmu" by the locals. It has extremely mysterious and magical power. It is said that people's eyes can break through light and darkness. boundaries.
