Ye Bei lives at Binh Duong Agricultural University. There is an artificial lake just over 200 meters away from the sports ground in the university town. The single-family villa by the lake is his home.
This was not Xueming's first time here, but every time he opened the door of Brother Ye Bei's house, he could feel strong discomfort.
It’s an indescribable discomfort——
——This steel beam and carbon fiber-reinforced house is particularly cold under the influence of the lake's water vapor. It seems that it is not meant for people to live in. As Brother Ye Bei said in his own words, after possessing the body of a ghost, the feng shui of normal people is different. Home says goodbye.
Xueming secretly thought that maybe this kind of ghostly house would be more suitable for Brother Ye Bei.
After putting down her luggage and putting on light home pajamas, Xueming could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
As we said in the previous sections, Hengyin City is like a big town in the western wilderness. For Xueming, this kind of always vigilant and cautious mentality has forged his steel-like mentality. nerve.
But when he returned to Brother Ye Bei's house, he felt very relaxed. Except that the house was a little too cold, everything was fine.
The time was two forty in the morning. The wall clock in the living room was ticking. The TV and carpet were as clean as new, as if someone had cleaned them every day.
Ye Bei fished out two bags of dumplings from the refrigerator in the kitchen. The white cat next to him held the iron pot familiarly, set up the stove, and turned on the gas stove to help light the fire for cooking.
Just heard a shout from the kitchen.
"Are you still jealous?"
The bad cat immediately replied: "I won't eat it."
Ye Bei: "I didn't ask you, I know what you like to eat."
Xueming immediately said: "I won't eat."
Ye Bei was cleaning the cabinets and asked, "Why? I remember that you used to like spicy oil and vinegar as a dipping sauce."
Xueming explained in detail: "I have to use my teeth a lot when I'm outside. I don't have any useful tools, and it's hard to open a soda bottle. In places like cold storages, tools are often borrowed and borrowed, and I can't find the right ones." Yes, I opened the packaging bag with my teeth, and then I stopped drinking vinegar."
"Thank you for your hard work, brother." Ye Bei's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what to say for a moment: "How many days will you be back here?"
Just as Xueming was about to get up, Ye Bei shouted back with his eyes and asked the distinguished guest to stay on the sofa and rest.
So he said, "I'll leave tomorrow."
Ye Bei: "So fast? Is there something urgent?"
Xueming: "It's not urgent, but I want to prepare a lot of things. It's a matter of life and death."
Ye Bei: "Where to go?"
Xueming: "Have you ever heard of Hongxing Mountain? Brother Ye Bei?"
Ye Bei: "No."
After that, a pair of slippers flew out from the kitchen and landed at Xueming's feet.
Then Ye Bei called out: "Change your shoes. If my wife sees your shoe marks tomorrow morning, she will definitely come and tease me."
"Why...are they pink bunny slippers? Are they my sister-in-law's?" Xueming asked curiously. She put on the slippers, only to find that they were one size larger than her feet, obviously a man's size.
Ye Bei: "Yeah, I just like cute things."
The bad cat sneered: "He just likes embarrassing things."
Ye Bei: "If you keep talking too much, I will use you as the base of the soup!~"
After hearing this, the bad cat immediately became good. I am afraid this is not the first time he has made cat pot.
Two plates of dumplings were prepared and arranged in six rows on the dining table. The dishes were exquisitely arranged and steaming hot.
Brother Ye Bei took Xueming to sit down, and then started chatting about home affairs.
"How is Bai Lu doing lately? I heard you say before that she has a strange disease. Are there any sequelae?"
"No, my sister is very good. She has been studying hard since she went to Jiujie Station."
"She also went to the underground world? Why did you send your sister down too? This is not good. People, you have to find a reason to see the sun. If one day I am gone, you will stay underground all year round. It is rare. If I go back to the surface once, I’m afraid my mood will become very bad.”
After saying that, Ye Bei asked Xueming to eat it while it was hot, and gently tapped the edge of the plate with his kuaizi, making a crisp collision sound.
"The principle of nature is one yin and one yang, one yang and one yin - we are not like the protagonists in some strange and mysterious stories. They can run around the world and be busy all the time. Where is the life? There are so many miraculous things, including eating, drinking and sleeping three meals a day. If your sister is also in the underground world, we will have fewer opportunities to meet in the future, and I’m afraid you will also have fewer opportunities to meet the sun. "
Xueming asked eloquently while putting dumplings into his mouth.
"Is it important to bask in the sun? I have been active at Jiujie Station for more than half a year, and I don't feel any big changes in myself."
"You definitely can't notice it yourself." Ye Bei's eyes were sparkling, like two black gems under the incandescent light in the restaurant, "I can clearly see the spiritual pressure and spiritual power fluctuations on your body. I remember that the Abyss Railway should have a rating system specifically used to measure people’s madness index, right?”
Xueming nodded: "Yes."
Ye Bei continued: "That's not right. This place in the underworld cares so much about whether passengers have gone crazy. There must be some, and there are more than one or two. It's a large-scale phenomenon. If you stay in the underground world for a long time , I’m afraid I’ll also go crazy.”
Xueming also cares about this very much, so he has always been very concerned about the review results of the polarizing sextant.
"Brother Ye Bei, I don't know why, but my madness index has always been at the lowest level, almost non-existent."
"It's a good thing." Ye Bei didn't take it seriously: "It proves that you haven't encountered anything truly desperate, and you haven't had strong emotional fluctuations. Your heart is very strong - the saying here is [The heart is as still as water, the mind is clear and the nature is seen]" ], in a spiritual disaster environment, we also need this quality to fight against fear. Identify the true form of the demon, seize the demon's weaknesses, and find the demon's door of death."
"Brother Ye Bei, do you also know about the Door to Death?" Xueming became increasingly curious.
Ye Bei smiled: "My unit has a sister relationship with the Abyss Railway leading directly to Guo'an. The term "Death Gate" was first translated from the Chinese word "Ghost Gate", and was eventually taken from "Death Gate" in Qimen Dunjia. ] in the name of the upper-level leaders of our respective work. They should be related to each other, especially the scientific research institute - if you often go to the 1773 Secret Library, there should be many [Tianji] and [Wen] in the scientific research station. Operators from Qu Wenchang are operating here.”
Xueming immediately asked: "Did Aohen Mingde build a railway under Chinese soil?"
Ye Bei thought about it carefully and said carefully: "As far as I know, there is only one."
Xueming: "Where does it lead?"
Ye Bei: "This is our headquarters, the Tianshu General Administration in Daxinganling. The place is cold and sparsely populated, which is suitable for accepting harmless monsters - wait, we should call them disaster beasts. After this new management method is promulgated, I still I’m not used to these new terms.”
Xueming swept away the dumplings on the table, leaving no one left.
"Why is there no branch station? Are there no other transfer stations or railway networks?"
The bad cat was almost in tears. It tugged at Ye Bei's clothes and looked at Xueming in a different light - the speed at which this kid cooked was really a bit ridiculous.
Originally, the bad cat wanted to be polite, but he didn't expect that in just a few hundred words and a few minutes, fifty of the more than sixty dumplings on the table ended up in Xueming's stomach.
"Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry...I'll order takeout."
Ye Bei comforted the cat owner while continuing to talk to Xueming.
"Why do you ask? Do you think there should be something under our feet? Or does it mean something else?"
Xueming acted as a reply reader: "That's the question just now. There's no other meaning. Why didn't Aohen Mingde build a station in its hometown, but it penetrated half of the Eurasian continental shelf?"
"There are many reasons." Ye Bei turned on his mobile phone and was about to order takeout. He was also struggling with the recipe menu in the middle of the night. He caught a glimpse of the bloated figure of the bad cat from the corner of his eye. He vaguely remembered what the evil beast turned into when it was sealed. The little white cat has a sexy and sultry figure, "I'll tell you one by one slowly. Aohun Mingde will definitely not tell you these things. It is a monster that pays attention to pomp and ceremony."
Under Bad Cat's urging, Ye Bei said unhurriedly.
"The first reason is that there are too many magical things in the soil under our feet. It is inappropriate to dig them out. The knowledge and cultural level of the broad masses of the people is low. Monsters like any new MLM leaders will come out. No... Disaster beasts, or possessing demonic powers... Oh no, people with the power to grant blood are a very dangerous and unstable factor for our densely populated city, so we simply don't dig them. ”
Xueming thought of British vampires, according to what Jack Martin said, and Robert Downing's evidence.
These inhuman monsters have infiltrated the British cabinet, offered their holy blood to many bourgeoisie, and even tried to infiltrate the power center of the Commonwealth under the rainy environment.
This is the disaster from the underground world, and it is also the monster dug up by the proud and ruthless Mingde without the great virtue.
Ye Bei continued: "The second reason is that even if it really digs up something, everyone is already an old acquaintance. The current appearance of Aohun Mingde is a bit embarrassing for a ferocious beast."
The bad cat immediately burst into laughter: "Hahahahaha! Hahahahahaha!"
Ye Bei casually took out two pieces of bread and clamped his own vicious beast. The bad cat immediately stopped laughing.
"It's like you are dusting off ashes at a construction site, and suddenly one day you find that your classmates have come to pick up your new house. Do you feel a little embarrassed? For Aohen Mingde, if it dug through the ancestral temple of any god in our Chinese civilization, and other people's That’s how I felt when we met.”
This statement may sound unorthodox to Brother Ye Bei, but it does make some sense.
"The last reason is that it is afraid of Tianshu's control - we always deal with disaster beasts vigorously and resolutely, usually leaving no one alive, and even if it doesn't work, we will make it harmless, just like it."
Ye Bei held up his master and saw that the two-winged tiger with the notorious reputation of "Qiongqi" turned into a rotating drill, spinning in circles along the piece of bread on his neck.

"If it has the ability to cause large-scale spiritual disasters and pose safety risks, our job is to eliminate such safety risks. We will never allow the evil beast to build such a huge underground railway system in our country. If it were not for [Philosopher Foundation] agrees to this matter, and Tianshu will make it a protected animal instead of a station valuable."
The precious things here refer to noble animals.
Xueming wrote everything down in his diary.
Ye Bei wants to add one last bit of information.
"It doesn't dare to run wild inland. Tianshu has left a safe passage for it. If one day it doesn't want to do it anymore, it can return to our shelter and a warm and comfortable prison."
Xueming suddenly felt a little unwilling: "BOSS is not a cat that will fall into pieces. His temper is more stubborn than that of a cow. He will never be willing to live in old age."
This ferocious beast risked its life to emit its essence and offer it to the passengers, turning its spirit into a polarizing sextant, a proud and ruthless Mingde big black cat, and this red mountain stone sent by the King Hunter.
It almost tore itself into pieces and used it in every possible way.
It is almost impossible to make it want to retreat.
The harvest season is the best answer. It would rather die than return to the nursing home in Tianshu.
Xueming could vaguely recall the BOSS's voice and smile, as well as the monster's words and determination.
With the changes of the times, there are many monsters and disaster beasts that were legendary in ancient times, but they can be killed with a cannon.
No matter how powerful the spiritual disaster is, it can be solved with nuclear warheads.
As it stands, nothing on this planet is more powerful than human creativity.
Various observation instruments have torn away their mystery.
Only by being as solid as a rock can we continue to survive under the torrent of the times.
If we go back to the Tianshu nursing home that Brother Ye Bei mentioned, BOSS may be worse off than dead——
——BOSS is a very radical individual in terms of his background as a station construction facility craftsman. Jiujie Station serves as the departure point and welcomes guests with a ring highway built by the Soviet engineering team.
Even during the harvest season, it still misses the expedition settlement created by the Slavs on the Red Star Mountain.
Go outward, toward the center of the earth.
Go to unknown places.
This determination to forge ahead is not just the idea of repentance, it is the essence of Yongchu.
Railways are the blood vessels, bones, and muscles of humanity.
It flourished during the first industrial revolution, with the rise of iron and steel factories, and became a relatively cheap means of transportation.
It has tracks and trains, and countless people pass through it, traveling to distant places and returning to their hometowns.
The steel wheels and rails are the circle of heaven and earth.
BOSS has said more than once that this is its way of [seeking truth].
It cannot give up its career.
This is its [Tao Heart], which is involved with every passenger, turning into a complex network of countless souls and spirits, indestructible and unbreakable.
"You should also have this thing -" Ye Bei opened the curtain next to the shoe cabinet and looked out from the entrance. Five or six spiritual clothes of the same shape and size were hung in the curtain: "-This thing is The one made by our unit is called [Ji Ji·Ling Yi]. At first I thought this name was unlucky, it was just GG, but later on, it was indeed useful. It can protect us from ordinary spiritual disasters. "
Xueming followed and looked over. Compared with the spiritual clothes woven by Ms. Fenxing, these clothes were different. They lacked embroidered seams and did not have Ms. Fenxing's enchantment, but they were stronger than the ones that could be mass-produced.
"I have also worn this piece of clothing, Brother Ye Bei. I remember that it was purchased by the purchasing department of the station as protective clothing for newcomers - if you have inspiration and need to release your spiritual pressure, it will turn into a kind of hindrance."
"What purchasing department..." Jiang Xueming curled his lips: "This is a business that it personally negotiated with Tianshu. Occasionally, it will send disaster beasts to Tianshu. We will send the stars to the station as field operators. They are The relationship between labor dispatch.”
"In this way..." Xueming thought thoughtfully - it is probably because the BOSS felt embarrassed. In order to solve the problem of the casualty rate of newcomers, he personally went to Tianshu to ask for help. Telling this kind of story to the passengers might affect it. Glorious and great image.
Ye Bei packed up the dinner plates, took the takeout, and gave it to the cat owner.
After doing these things, he talked to Xueming.
"Go take a shower, I'm ready to go out."
Xueming: "Where are you going? Brother? What are you doing?"
Ye Bei put on his spiritual clothes and took out a mission briefing from the shoe cabinet.
"On New Year's Day, in the middle of the night, of course I go out to fight monsters. Otherwise? Do some exercise after eating supper? Should I go for a night run in the early morning?"
