Lie Huo Jiao Chou

"The above are my reasons. If you have anything to discuss, you can speak freely."

Xiao Zheng was sitting upright, facing a computer screen - Huang Ju was also detained in the conference center of the "Penglai Security Federation", and Xiao Zheng was asked to stay and sit in the head office.

At this time, the Yellow Bureau should really be unable to withstand the pressure, so they contacted Xiao Zheng remotely and asked him to come out and report the latest progress of the investigation.

Xiao Zheng is a person with extraordinary talent, and his face has two states in daily life: either he is out of breath, or his face is expressionless.

He was wearing a suit that a civil servant could not even afford with his two-year salary. He sat there, calm, determined and strong. It would not be shameful to send this image to receive foreign missions.Facing a group of powerful bosses at this time, he was completely unmoved, and he could not tell at all that he was from an ordinary family.

Xiao Zheng recounted what Xuan Ji had said to him in the isolation room in an orderly manner, and waited for the three sessions of interrogation.

The "Penglai Conference" sounds ethereal, but it's actually quite earthy.The conference room may have been decorated in the last century: wooden tables with white walls, a few map decorations hanging on the wall, two rows of cheap-looking red-brown long conference tables, and enamel jars besides thermos cups on the tables.

The participants were divided into two rows, regardless of gender, and all of them were full of bossy temperament-the hairline was raised and the corners of the mouth were lowered.

The bosses stared at Xiao Zheng through the screen in unison, like a buyer at a farmer's market scrutinizing livestock: calmly, secretly calculating how many catties he will grow in the future.

Here, although Bureau Huang represents the government, he is just an ordinary person after all. At the Penglai meeting, ordinary people are just inferior to others, as can be seen from the seat number. He is several seats away from the chief.

Sitting on the main seat was an old lady with gray hair, she looked about sixty years old, she was not tall, she wore light makeup, and a small silk scarf was tied crookedly around her neck, she was well dressed, but she spoke lightly. Slow, and the demeanor is also very dignified, with a kind of old-fashioned ladylike style.

"Xiao Xiao, right," the old lady said slowly, "do you know who I am?"

Xiao Zheng nodded: "Grandma Yu."

Granny Yu is the convener of this Penglai meeting. She usually lives in seclusion in the northeast area. She is so big that no one knows her full name. Some people say that she looks young, but she is actually more than 300 years old. Others say more than [-] years old. , she must be a thousand years younger, and used to be a member of the "Qingping Division".

"Seeing that you young people have all grown up, and the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves ahead, I feel relieved." Granny Yu smiled at him pleasantly, but Xiao Zheng didn't dare to take it seriously, and the back was still tense—after all, Granny Yu had seen it before. There are too many "waves", one wave after another, she must not be so carefree.

Sure enough, Granny Yu's voice changed: "You mean, the flower in the mirror, the butterfly in the water, and the moon were not contagious. This time it was just an accident, right? Then, mother-in-law, I would like to ask you, first, what you said is all speculation. Take a step back Say, even if your deduction is reasonable, it is the mutated butterfly that is contagious, then how do you know that there is no second mutated butterfly?"

The phone on Xiao Zheng's desk vibrated, and the words "Luo Cuicui" jumped up and down on it. He glanced at it and hung up: "Our people are investigating what happened to the mutated butterfly. ..."

Granny Yu interrupted him gently: "That is to say, you don't know. The Butterfly in the Mirror, the Water and the Moon has existed since ancient times. It is a first-level danger. None of us can tell the ins and outs of it. Can you tell me?"

Xiao Zheng was speechless.

Granny Yu bent her eyes and smiled at him: "Second, even if you can dig three feet into the ground, find me a capable person who understands the butterfly in the mirror, the water and the moon, and guarantees that the butterfly infection this time is accidental—then this is the same as What does it matter if we ask for a thorough investigation of the Alien Control Bureau? The old director of your bureau used dangerous public property to falsify the number of casualties.

Bureau Huang interjected: "This...Grandma Yu, we are already organizing an investigation team internally..."

"Without supervision, how can self-examination be effective?" On Granny Yu's left, an old man in a black tunic suit yelled. The old man spoke very fast, with a shrill and harsh voice, "Hey, close the door , what's going on inside, who can see? Oh, when the time comes, you push out the old director who committed the crime, put the shit pot on his head, how can we know what's going on inside? ? Isn't that right, Xiao Wang?"

Bureau Huang said helplessly: "Mr. Yuede, my surname is Huang—that's it. The comrade in charge of our self-examination this time is a very capable new comrade. He has participated in the ceremony of stopping the gloomy sacrifice and confronted the devil summoned by the suspect. For several hours, my resume is also very clean, and I will never bend the law for personal gain..."

Granny Yu interrupted him with a smile: "You didn't answer our question, Chief Huang."

"Besides, it's not necessarily innocent!" Hei Zhongshan suit yelled again, "I heard that this person was stuffed in by your old bureau chief? How do you know that he won't bend the law for personal gain?"

Bureau Huang had no choice but to say: "Of course everyone is welcome to supervise..."

"We are going to discuss the issue of supervision now!" Hei Zhongshan suit patted the table, "Penglai will be held by you, so good, we are here, you will build a bunch of rules and regulations for us, and send special personnel to monitor us, we will also I understand, work with the government, now you have problems yourself, and it’s not easy to supervise? You are sitting in an office in Yong’an, where the wind is out of the sun and the sun is out, this time the butterfly infection appeared at our doorstep!”

There can be no two tigers in one mountain, and the bosses all have their own spheres of influence. This time, the home of the boy who was infected with the flower in the mirror, the water moon butterfly, is within the sphere of influence of Mr. Yuede, the black mountain suit.That place is relatively remote, and the Alien Control Bureau has only one office, and if there is a slight disturbance—such as this time—all of them will be folded in.Sometimes when something happens in the local area, the Different Control Bureau can't intervene at all, and the General Bureau has to pay homage to the mountain first when sending people down.

Yue Degong raised his already high-pitched voice by an octave: "Each of our families should send special personnel to the General Administration to set up a supervision team, and the supervision must supervise each other!"

Bureau Huang said with a wry smile: "National agencies, it's not that whatever I say can be established..."

"That's good, we don't care about anyone else, the well water does not violate the river water, and what we do in the local area in the future, don't need your general bureau to send people to review."

The conference table became a mess, and Director Huang tried several times to intervene, but couldn't intervene at all.

Xiao Zheng sighed, at this moment, his cell phone rang again, it was still Luo Cuicui.Director Xiao acted tough and rarely used the word "hope". Before he turned off the camera and picked up the phone, he thought to himself: "I hope the aftermath department can have some good news."

"Director, I have to report something to you..." Luo Cuicui hummed and reported the "good news" that Xiao Zheng was looking forward to: "Our boss is heroic! The bone claws were dragged into a black hole, and they disappeared!"

Xiao Zheng didn't come up in one breath, and almost choked to death on the spot.

Luo Cuicui asked sobbingly, "Director Xiao, when can I be transferred?"

Xiao Zheng: "..."

This job can't be done.

Seeing the "magnificent" Xuan Ji rushing towards the cave without hesitation, Sheng Lingyuan quickly stopped him: "Wait a minute, what are you doing!"

Xuan Ji: "Didn't you see that bunch of butterflies!"

"Why do you run when you see butterflies?" Sheng Lingyuan said, "They can't parasitize on you."

"They can parasitize on this guy!" Xuan Ji had already rushed into the cave, his feet landed on the ground, and the wings on his back were retracted, "Hello, senior, you didn't notice that there is another person who can breathe Is it alive? It stinks and is still hot!"

"This person is bluffing and cheating. He is not a kind person. What does it matter to you?" Sheng Lingyuan said quickly, "Don't go any further!"

Xuan Ji suddenly felt strange, because Sheng Lingyuan had always been a calm person. He had never spoken at this speed, and his tone was almost unstable.

Xuan Ji: "Senior, listen to what you said, how low is your awareness! I am a cadre with a well-established establishment, sending ordinary people to the butterfly pile, is it plausible?"

"Stop!" Sheng Lingyuan gave a low voice, with a hint of anger.

Xuan Ji blinked: "What's the matter, senior, do you know what's in this hole?"

Sheng Lingyuan: "Since you are afraid of the butterfly, you should understand that it is not fun to go to a place where butterflies dare not come. Go out, and I will find a way to take you away from here."

Xuan Ji hesitated for a moment: "You think of a way? Do you know the way?"

"There is an altar in the witch man's tomb." Sheng Lingyuan only lost control for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, he regained his calm and gentle tone, and said to Xuan Ji, "I just wanted the bones to take us to the altar. There is a mechanism at the altar. You can see a secret passage after worshiping, which can lead to the ground. Although he woke up halfway, the altar should be not far away, I know... Be good, be obedient."

Although he was in the sword, when he opened his mouth, the voice seemed to be swept out of Xuan Ji's ears. It was low-pitched and somewhat inexplicably seductive. It didn't sound like a good thing.

Xuan Ji's ears went numb, and his eyes were in a daze.

"You don't even dare to go in front of the butterfly. There are so many crises, and you still have a mortal with you, how can you handle it?" Sheng Lingyuan sighed, "It's so reckless that the elders of the clan dare to let you out, it's too worrying. "

Xuan Ji suddenly understood why Bi Chunsheng was so crazy that he almost cried aggrieved after hearing him say "who bullied you".

This person seems to have a strange magical power, the words he speaks are like a fine net, covering them lightly and delicately, giving people the illusion that they are being pampered wholeheartedly by him, and all the grievances and sadness that they don't tell outsiders , sad, can pour out here.

Xuan Ji involuntarily stopped walking forward.

"This little demon is young and very talented," Sheng Lingyuan calculated coldly, "He is born with arrogance and does not want to associate with foreigners. It is usually very difficult for offspring. Such a little demon will usually be well protected by the tribe and will not Let him be disgraced in the world. He claims to be the patriarch, so there must be a change in the clan, and no one has taken care of him since he was a child."

"Come with me," Sheng Lingyuan said in his ear, "I won't harm you."

Xuan Ji seemed to hesitate for a moment, took off the heavy sword hanging from the goatee, grabbed the collar of the goatee, and dragged the man into his hand.

He said, "Okay."

Then he turned to the way he came from - at this time, the entrance of the cave where Xuan Ji came in was as bright as day, and the surroundings were covered with flowers in the mirror, water and moon butterflies. They stared at each other for a while, then took big steps, and went straight into the cave: "Senior, when did you keep your word and you won't hurt me—won't you hurt me once?"

Sheng Lingyuan: "..."

"Even if you are on the ground or underground, you are thousands of years old, right? You can't keep up with your moral cultivation, and you don't even blush when you open your eyes and tell nonsense." Xuan Ji shook her head and said lightly with the tip of her sword on the ground Ke, "Are you blushing?"

When the epee touched the hard stone floor, a "clang" was heard far away, and the echo lingered, as if there was a very open place in front of it.

Xuan Ji carried the person in one hand and the sword in the other, without much effort, she walked briskly towards the echo, while walking, her mouth was not idle, and she taught the big devil: "Since you are here, you are here now!" , then I have to give you a popular science about the values ​​of our contemporary people. We believe in equality and justice. Let alone justice. Considering your current moral level, it is still a little far away from you. Let’s talk about equality—what? What is equality? It’s just a breathing creature. No matter what kind of special ability he is or an ordinary person, a good person or a bad kind, in my case, the rights are equal. If he really seeks money and kills, then I will have to Transfer him to the Public Security Bureau, before transferring, I still have to protect him equally, let's put it this way..."

The big devil may have been so angry that he lost his voice.

"... Your ancient ways of emperors and generals are outdated, understand? You are very politically incorrect, I..." Xuan Ji's endless voice suddenly stopped, and he saw the place in front of him clearly. "My... third uncle's..."

He followed the narrow cave to the wide place, where there was a small pool of stagnant water, which had not dried up for some reason, and a vine plant he had never seen before grew on the four walls of the cliff, covered with small vines. The small buds, like small light bulbs, shimmer.

The moment Xuan Ji walked in, all the buds bloomed at the same time, as if the light was suddenly turned on in the cave, the milky white halo fell softly, warmer than a lover's eyes, Xuan Ji's first reaction was to cover her eyes. Cover yourself and that goatee's muzzle, in case unknown plant pollen is poisonous.

He only had two hands, and he used them both, so the epee was naturally thrown aside.

The sound of the epee falling to the ground disturbed the pool, and the water in the pool was slightly choppy. The white flowers suddenly turned from white to red, and then shrank and turned into liquid. Blood flowed down the four walls, from all directions to the sword. sword--
