Bu Tian Gang

Everyone did not rush to leave, but gathered around Li Ying and Zhang Song to inquire about the situation.

"Brother Li, do you know what the mortality rate was during such training?" Chi Banxia asked.

Li Ying smiled bitterly: "I really haven't counted this. As far as I know, the first session of the Special Administrative Bureau after the implementation of the training system, I heard that dozens of people took the practical exam at that time, and the final survival rate..."

He paused: "Only less than half."

Everyone gasped.

Someone exclaimed: "What was the test at that time, if it was an ordinary person, it would be fine, how could practitioners not be so tragic!"

Li Ying: "According to my dad, the survival rate was low at that time. On the one hand, everyone thought very highly of themselves at first and didn't pay much attention to the assessment, thinking that the Special Administration Bureau lacked people, and at most went through the process. Second, they went to the tropical rainforest in Southeast Asia to rescue them. People, the environment is unfamiliar, and some people have been hit by various miasmas and traps before being brought down by the enemy. Among them, there are also many famous disciples."

Zhang Song rarely nodded in agreement with him: "Yes, I've heard about this too. Back then, Longhushan also lost four disciples because of this incident, and he didn't participate in the recruitment of the Special Administration Bureau for several years. "

For a while, everyone fell silent.

"Banxia, ​​do you want to quit?" Xie Qingning said suddenly.

Chi Banxia's face was gloomy and uncertain, struggling for a while, she still gritted her teeth and said, "No!"

Xie Qingning smiled: "If you quit now, all your previous efforts will be in vain."

Once he made up his mind, Chi Banxia's expression became much more relaxed: "Yes, the head-dropping technique doesn't work on zombies, it will never end up in the tomb, those Japanese are not afraid of the head-turning technique, how can I use it! "

Li Ying deliberately said: "What if the things in the tomb are more disgusting than zombies?"

Chi Banxia gave him a blank look.

Everyone could more or less see the ambiguity between Chi Banxia and Li Ying, and they all laughed together.

At this moment, although there are still some small differences between each other, everyone's mood is the same in the face of the upcoming trip to the northwest.

Uneasy, restless, expectant, ambitious.

"winter solstice!"

As soon as the winter solstice left the classroom on the front foot, someone stopped him on the back foot.

But instead of stopping, he walked faster.

Lin Xuan ran in front of him, stopped him, and said with a smile: "Actually, I just wanted to apologize to you again. There's no need to hide from me, right?"

Winter Solstice innocently said: "Mr. Lin made a mistake, I didn't hide from you."

Lin Xuan: "Then let's have a dinner date?"

The winter solstice simply said: "No, I have to get up early tomorrow, and I understand, goodbye."

He walked past Lin Xuan, who reached out his hand to grab him, and avoided him in time for the winter solstice, but Lin Xuan's hand was still entangled.

Soft and weak, but very fast.

The winter solstice didn't care about anything else, the long sword was unsheathed and slashed at the opponent, and the speed was unexpectedly faster than Lin Xuan expected.

The last time he went out for dinner, he wanted to visit Uncle Qian temporarily, but he didn't bring the Chang Shou sword with him, and he almost suffered a big loss. Now he takes the sword with him wherever he goes.

Lin Xuan didn't expect that he still has this hand, so he had to quickly withdraw his hand and retreat, the sword edge could barely brush his temple, and a cold wind blew.

It also scared Lin Xuan into a cold sweat.

But he recovered quickly, and then smiled: "I thought you were Luan Sheng, you only asked God, it seems that you are underestimating you!"

The winter solstice gave a fake smile: "I also underestimated you, I thought you would only cooperate with the Japanese!"

He was not such a mean person at first, but when he saw Lin Xuan, he would inevitably think of that day.

Fortunately, the few Japanese were dead, wounded, and the rest were arrested. I heard that one of them was intimidated by the second master Guan. There was some mental problem, and the wicked were punished. It finally gave him some comfort.

Zhong Yuyi's figure flashed at the entrance of the stairs, as if he was about to go down, when the winter solstice's eyes lit up, and he stopped him: "Old Zhong!"

Not surprisingly, Zhong Yuyi seemed to be sleepwalking, and he didn't stop looking back until the Winter Solstice caught up to pat him on the shoulder, with a sleepless expression on his face.

"Old Zhong, aren't you going to the Northwest with us?"

After a few seconds, Zhong Yu nodded: "There are a lot of people going this time, and there are two directors leading the team, so I won't go."

The winter solstice used the skill of being cute all his life: "Then can you help me take care of the cat for a few days?"

Zhong Yuyi said slowly: "You, have a cat?"

The winter solstice nodded: "I picked it up on the road. I'm going out tomorrow. I guess I won't be back for a long time. You can just put it in your office. Pour a bowl of cat food every day, and it will eat by itself."

Zhong Yuyi: "But, I'm afraid, I forgot."

"I can help!" Lin Xuan didn't know when he appeared again, and smiled at Zhong Yu, "Hello, I'm Lin Xuan, Ermu Chenglin, "Erya" said, the size of the bi is six inches. Zhi Xuan. It's that Xuan. I don't know what your friends call him?"

Zhong Yuyi snorted, still with the expression of indifference and powerlessness, reaching out and shaking him: "Zhong Yuyi."

Lin Xuan smiled at the winter solstice and said, "I can find a subordinate to help you raise the cat, and I will make sure that I will be fat and smooth when I come back."

Reaching out to not hit the smiling face, the Winter Solstice had to say, "No need, I can ask a friend to help me, and I can send it to a pet store for foster care."

Lin Xuan: "That's a lot of trouble. I'll call and someone will come soon."

Zhong Yuyi said slowly, "I can help."

The winter solstice took him by the shoulder: "Old Zhong, I knew you were loyal enough to invite you to dinner at night!"

Zhong Yu thought for a while: "Eat the rice rolls."

Winter Solstice: "I'll call you ten, eat five, and watch the remaining five!"

Lin Xuan was unwilling to be left out, so he just interjected: "I know that there is a good intestine noodle shop nearby, I'll invite you."

As soon as Zhong Yu looked at him, he said in confusion, "You said just now, what's your name?"

Lin Xuan's face stiffened.

The winter solstice is dark and cool.

Lin Xuan's cultivation is not bad, he smiled without changing his face: "Lin Xuan, Ermu Chenglin, the propaganda next to Wang Zi."

Zhong Yu nodded, paused for a moment, and then asked suspiciously, "Isn't it the Xuan of Eryali?"

Lin Xuan: "...that's just how I explained the origin of the name."

Zhong Yuyi asked earnestly, "Then what is the origin of your name?"

Lin Xuan:  …

How can the Special Administration Bureau have such a wonderful thing, he is going crazy!

Lin Xuan was almost unable to keep the smile on his face. He was afraid that if he continued, he could not help but beat people, so he had to say "I have one more step ahead, you can talk" and left in a hurry.

The winter solstice is very happy next to it.

This is called one thing down one thing!

As soon as Zhong Yu looked at Lin Xuan's back, he was still confused: "This person can leave as soon as he wants to. He hasn't explained it clearly yet. It's too rude."

The winter solstice couldn't bear it any longer, and he laughed directly, the depression in his heart was swept away, and the whole person was refreshed.

Early the next morning, he entrusted the cat to Zhong Yuyi, and he and others embarked on a journey to the northwest.

Everyone has knives and swords on their bodies, and it is difficult to bring them on the plane. This time the journey is relatively urgent, and there is no time to go through the formalities and go through special channels, so they have to check in, which is still licensed.

This is the first time for everyone to travel together and participate in training. Although the second group also went to the grave last time, it can only be called an appetizer at best. If it wasn't for Liu Qingbo to go his own way, it is estimated that there would not be even that little twists and turns. This time it was different. The two deputy directors Long Shen and Song Zhicun personally led the team, which made everyone smell an unusual breath. In addition to the words that were warned yesterday, everyone looked as usual, but most of them didn't sleep last night. Well, many people close their eyes as soon as they get on the plane, or fall asleep.

Due to the excessive consumption of the spirit of the gods, the winter solstice followed what Long Shen said, and there were no talismans for the past two days, except for a few times of breathing, that is, practicing swords.

The effect of practising calligraphy by hanging the wrist in the bedroom at ordinary times has finally come out, just like yesterday's attack on Lin Xuan, it was a completely subconscious action, and the speed and reaction power have improved by how much compared to when he first practiced swordsmanship.

The winter solstice was still immersed in the joy of taking action against the enemy yesterday, and the wrist naturally simulated the action of pulling the sword flower several times.

Gu Meiren, who was sitting next to him, saw that he kept turning his wrist, and couldn't help but say, "Is your wrist strained?"

"No," Dongzhi smiled embarrassedly, "I'm practicing drawing a sword."

He saw Gu Meiren's faint blue and black eyes: "Did you not sleep last night? Don't worry, there are Bureau Long and Bureau Song."

Gu Meiren touched her eye sockets: "I'm not very worried about myself, I'm just worried that I will drag you down. After all, I will only confuse people with my timbre."

Winter Solstice comforted: "Have you forgotten what Bureau Wu said after our last simulation training? Individual ability is important, but teamwork is more important, and this time there will be Japanese to lead us, maybe They have already cleared the way for us, and as soon as we go over, we can easily put people down and enjoy the success!"

He smiled and waved his hand, his expression was high, and even his beautiful eyes were shining, and Gu Meiren couldn't help laughing along with him.

Although she only regards the winter solstice as a friend, she will inevitably think that the future girlfriend and wife of the other party will face such a person every day, and they must not treat them like treasures in her arms every day.

The plane takes off soon.

The wings rushed through the heavy clouds and rushed towards the sky. After a short haze, the vision ushered in a wide sea of ​​clouds, with large swaths of clouds bordered with gold, like Buddha light.

Gu Meiren was on a plane for the first time, and wanted to switch to a window seat with the Winter Solstice to enjoy the scenery, but she turned her head and saw that the other party had already fallen asleep on the chair.

The quality of sleep on the winter solstice has always been good, even if it is on the plane, after closing your eyes, you will not know everything.

When he woke up, the plane was still flying, he was lazy and didn't want to move, so he stretched out.

I stretched out my hand halfway, but it felt something was wrong.

I have an extra blanket on my body, and the companion next to me seems to have changed.

He turned his head to look and was startled: "Dragon Bureau?"

Long Shen was reading a book, umm.

The winter solstice rubbed his eyes: "Why are you? What about the beauty?"

Long Shen: "She wanted to change seats, so I changed seats with her."

The winter solstice was a little apprehensive: "When I fell asleep, I didn't do anything indecent, right?"

Long Shen finally raised his head and glanced at him: "Does talking in your sleep count?"

ha? Winter Solstice was dumbfounded.

"What did I say, what did I say?"

Long Shen: "Speaking of food, and..."

"What else?" Winter Solstice's heart raised.

Long Shen: "Just kidding you."

winter solstice:……

When Long Shen saw that he didn't return to his senses, he couldn't help laughing: "I haven't gotten to the place yet, let's sleep again."

How can this be! Make him a false alarm!

During the winter solstice, he was very angry and did not dare to speak out. He had no choice but to let his anger out on the blanket, pull the blanket up, and directly cover half of his face.

Long Shen didn't care, he lowered his head and continued to read, and when he closed the book, he turned his head and saw that the other party had already fallen asleep again, and the blanket slipped off his knees and was about to fall to the ground.

Really heartless.

Long Shen shook his head, stretched out his hand, and put the blanket back on him.

The flight time from the capital to Yinchuan is not long, two hours is enough. Except for Long Shen and Song Zhicun, the others are the first time to set foot on this thousand-year-old ancient city in the northwest. However, they did not stay in the urban area. Outside the airport, they got on the bus that came to pick them up and headed directly to the northwest.

In addition to the driver, there was a young man in the car. When they were seated one by one, the young man smiled and said, "Welcome all leaders to Yinchuan. I am Ye Cheng from the Northwest Branch Office in Yinchuan. You can call me Xiao Ye. , this time I will lead you to your destination."

Regarding the Northwest Branch, I heard an anecdote from Kan Chaosheng on the Winter Solstice.

It is said that Yinchuan and Xi'an were fighting for the location of the Northwest Branch. Later, each side sent a representative with the most seniority and the strongest ability. Xi'an won, so it became a branch, and Yinchuan had to be aggrieved to become an office. But now we advocate younger cadres. On the Yinchuan side, young people like Ye Cheng account for the majority. The disadvantage is that they have no experience in dealing with emergencies. Things like this time are dangerous and unpredictable, and they cannot do it alone. The two deputy directors personally led the team over.

Ye Cheng can't talk about how handsome and good-looking, but he has a baby face and a very infectious smile. Gu Meiren couldn't help whispering to the Winter Solstice: "He looks like you when he smiles!"

"We don't look alike!" Winter Solstice looked left and right, but couldn't see any similarity between the two of them.

Gu Meiren smiled but did not say a word. The similarity was not her appearance. Every time she was in a low mood, when she saw the winter solstice smile, she felt that life was still pretty good.

Ye Cheng started to introduce Yinchuan's customs and natural features, which made them seem to be traveling.

"In addition to Helan Mountain, Yinchuan also has the Xixia Royal Mausoleum. This is also a historical and cultural legacy that can be visited. The Xixia Royal Mausoleum has so far..."

"Little Leaf!" Song Zhicun couldn't help interrupting his high-spirited speech, "Tell us about the situation north of Helan Mountain."

Ye Cheng said twice, "To the east of Helan Mountain is the Yellow River and Inner Mongolia. The terrain here is much steeper than the west. Many places in the east have been developed into scenic spots and wineries. According to reports from the masses , people have seen unicorns covered in snow there before..."

Song Zhicun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He raised his hand and said, "Okay, Xiaoye, please stop for a while. Let me tell you a few words. Comrades, according to the information provided by the tomb robbers, the place we are going is located at the foot of Mount Helan, where the King of Xixia is located. To the north of the mausoleum, they went down from the robbery cave near the royal mausoleum complex, and at first they thought they had found a new mausoleum, and it was the bronze mirror they found there."

"Later, they found a passage on the side of the tomb that led directly to the north. Some of the tomb robbers tried to go in and find out, but they soon found out that it was very dangerous. They damaged several people because of this, and the remaining gang members had to recover from the original Run away and exit."

"So we speculate that the owner of the tomb they found was probably a certain dignitary in the Western Xia period. In short, he had a certain social status in the upper class of the Western Xia at that time, but the real goal of the Japanese was probably the northern passage. "

Zhang Song asked, "How long is the passage to the north, and what are the dangers they encounter?"

Song Zhicun said: "The gang of tomb robbers can't tell. They said that they had walked for more than an hour, and they were not at the end. The flashlight's illumination range was limited, and they could only hear the sound of water flowing in front of them. Feeling that there was nothing to fish for, we followed the original path. At this time, one of the companions suddenly screamed and disappeared without a trace. Everyone couldn't find him, and they became more and more afraid. They all scrambled to run back. After that, it was discovered that ten people went and only four returned."

Ye Cheng interjected: "If it's in the direction of the king's mausoleum, drive north for an hour on the ground, and you'll almost reach the Helan Mountain Forest Park. If they walk underground, they can probably avoid a lot of detours."

Hearing that he finally said something reliable, Song Zhicun nodded with relief: "Yes, we also guess that the end of the passage is probably under the Helan Mountains. But unfortunately, none of those who survived came back. To be clear, what happened to their companions, so this time, we need to be very careful, many enemies are hidden in the invisible darkness, the zombie simulation is just a simulation, this time, I hope you can cherish the lives of yourself and your companions , don't take things lightly."

Then he rambled on a lot of precautions.

The Winter Solstice found that Deputy Director Song had the characteristics of Director Jiang in some respects. For at least the next hour, Deputy Director Song's mouth did not stop, and everyone's ears were buzzing, from a fly to two. One flies, from two to four, before a group of flies danced around him holding hands, the winter solstice had been successfully hypnotized, and he fell asleep with his head tilted.

He woke up again, and was shaken by Gu Meiren, and everyone got out of the car and went to a noodle restaurant.

Ye Cheng stood under the car door and clapped his hands: "Everyone, let's get out of the car for dinner first, and then we'll go on our way! It's convenient to go to the convenience, and those who need to buy water go to buy water, and then we will drive all the way to the destination. It's gone!"

winter solstice:……

He laughed and laughed, and he felt like he was in a cheap tour group.

But in all fairness, this noodle restaurant that Ye Cheng chose is small and tastes pretty good. The noodles are hand-rolled by the boss. The soup base is bone broth that has been boiled for a few hours. Finally, it is topped with braised pork, tomatoes and peppers. It is sour and spicy. , appetizing.

Everyone had a hearty meal, then got in the car and continued on their way. The tall buildings on both sides gradually became shorter, and the farmland and trees gradually turned into Gobi mountains, green and yellow, and the eyes were vast. Everyone’s mood instantly found the subtlety The change.

Thousands of years ago, this place was also one of the stops of the Thousand Mile Buddha Country, where incense was prosperous and camel bells sounded.

More than a thousand years ago, a Xiazhou Jiedushi named Li Jiqian began to expand his territory here, laying an indelible and solid foundation for his descendant Li Yuanhao to establish Xixia, and was therefore revered as Xia Taizu.

Today, pyramid-like royal tombs stand on this vast land. All the love, hatred and hatred of gold and iron horses have all turned into clouds. The ruins that have been extensively destroyed in the Yuan Dynasty are left, vaguely telling the short-lived appearance. of brilliance.

It is now near the end of autumn, and it is not the peak season of winter and summer vacations. Unlike the Forbidden City, which is bustling all year round, it presents a rare quiet scene. There are occasional groups of tourists, who only regard the winter solstice as ordinary tour groups, and do not care too much.

According to Ye Chengzhi's direction, the driver drove the car to the area north of the royal tomb, where there was a separate area, and there was also a caltrop tree with a sign on it.

Military power, idlers are not allowed to enter.

This is the area that Xiaoye and the others have encircled after they have been instructed by the General Administration. The locals know that there is a small airfield nearby for air force exercises, and they are accustomed to such facilities.

However, this caltrop can only block the footsteps of ordinary people. For the few Japanese, this little obstacle is not a problem at all.

Ye Cheng led them to the small door in the middle of the caltrops, took out the key, unlocked it, and moved the wooden fence behind.

"The robbery hole is not far ahead."

Under a steeply upward slope, large and small yellow stones were stacked there, and there was indeed a small thief hole on the side of the stone that only adults could crawl into.

Ye Chengdao: "The people from our branch took a look at it before..."

Song Zhicun's face froze: "Xiao Ye, you are not obeying orders. We have already said that before we come, you cannot act without authorization!"

Ye Cheng knew that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly smiled: "Song Bureau is right, but we only went forward for about a few dozen meters, and then turned back immediately without encountering any danger!"

Song Zhicun snorted softly.

Ye Cheng continued: "In the first fifty meters or so, we all have to bend down and climb like this, and then a gentle **** suddenly appears. At that time, the flashlight illuminated, and the visual observation was about ten meters. We were afraid of breaking the discipline, so we rushed back. I don't dare to go any further!"

Long Shen looked around at everyone and said, "I'll go in first, Ye Cheng is behind me, you follow, the Queen of the Song Bureau."

Sometimes it's not always safe to be at the back. The last person in the team is also very important. With Song Zhi behind, everyone feels a lot more secure.

At the winter solstice, it was impossible to imagine Deputy Director Long Dangtang crawling into a robbery hole, but Long Shen moved very quickly.

When things came to an end, everyone didn't think about it too much. Winter Solstice followed Basang into the robbery hole, and behind him was Gu Meiren.
