Li Kui's expression didn't change when he heard this, but he asked a little doubtfully: "Mr. Zhongshan, I see your ability, and you have so many talents under your command, why do you come to ask me?"
To be honest, Yue Zhongshan's proactive search and decisiveness were a bit beyond Li Kui's expectations.
"Hahahaha." Yue Zhongshan raised a smile on his lips, "Although you have behaved normally all the way, the only time you were unusual, I saw it."
Li Kui immediately came to his senses.
Yue Zhongshan picked up a piece of green leaf between his fingertips at some point and put it in his mouth to chew. The dry and sweet taste immediately stimulated his taste buds, which revived his tired spirit and continued: "The demons sent out on the Holy Night are not weak, especially After they caught Xiao Le, their overall tactics tended to cover their retreat.
"I asked Xiaole.
"She said that you rushed in from the outside, came to the ghost general like a sudden wind, and disabled his ability to move with just one knife. This is your strength!"
Yue Zhongshan looked at the thin black dog lying on the side and said with a smile: "It's hard to find the guy hiding in the dark with cold guns. Your partner Xiao Hei can accurately find and kill him. This is another level of strategy! "
Yue Zhongshan's two sentences may seem ordinary, but they are not.
Tu Wei Wujiu San has been fighting wars for more than a hundred years. Regardless of whether they are humans or ghosts, they have been taught how to survive and fight since childhood. Fighting is something they are accustomed to.
Everyone has extremely rich fighting experience, and separation between life and death is even more normal.
Li Kui's beheading operation seemed simple and smooth in the past, but in fact it was a complex and difficult matter that was simplified by relying on strong strength.
It was a battlefield occupied by hundreds of ghost beasts. Each of Yue Zhongshan and the others had extraordinary abilities, but they could only barely hold on to the battle. The key to a comeback was Yuan Bin alone.
However, Li Kui easily changed the situation of the battle with one person and one dog. With Yue Zhongshan's experience, how could he not see the core of it, so he came to Li Kui specifically to see if he had any good ideas.
"Please help us."
Yue Zhongshan said sincerely.
Under the bright yellow firelight, this white-haired face seemed to have returned to his original age.
"Mr. Zhongshan said something serious."
Li Kui had already hatched a plan in his mind, but now that Yue Zhongshan had taken the initiative to ask for help, he naturally would not deliberately stage it and said immediately: "I do have a more reckless method."
"Hahaha, what do you mean by a more reckless method?"
Yue Zhongshan couldn't help but become happy after hearing this.
Li Kui smiled mysteriously and immediately told Yue Zhongshan about the plan from Tang Yin.
Unexpectedly, the more Yue Zhongshan listened, the tighter his brows became. After a moment, he still said with some worry: "Is this really okay? I still feel it's a bit unsafe."
"Don't worry, it's guaranteed."
Li Kui raised his hand and patted Yuan Bin's shoulder hard. "Isn't there still Yuan Bin?"
"Then it's up to you."
Seeing Li Kui's confident look, Yue Zhongshan no longer hesitated. He immediately showed a bold smile, picked up the water glass and said, "Then use water instead of wine. I wish you success."
It's no wonder that Yuan Bin and others sometimes prefer to call him Uncle Zhongshan. Yue Zhongshan has strong military qualities, but he is not stubborn and approachable. Calling him uncle will make him appear more approachable!
"success."
Li Kui and Yuan Bin raised their water glasses together.
"Mr. Zhongshan."
Now that the serious matters had been discussed, Li Kui casually asked: "How old are you this year?"
"Seventy-six." Yue Zhongshan said with a smile.
Li Kui was startled when he heard this. He didn't expect that the person next to him had actually experienced the end of the world completely. He said, "If you think about it this way, then you were born after the disaster."
"Yes, I was born in 2016."
Perhaps very few people would mention past events when chatting with Yue Zhongshan. Now that the topic was opened, memories came to Yue Zhongshan's bright eyes unconsciously. "My childhood was spent in panic."
"Then you must have experienced a lot." Li Kui's tone couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
He had seen Yue Zhongshan's extraordinary ability to summon countless layers of firepower out of thin air.
Ability is often the embodiment of obsession in the heart. Perhaps in the heart of Mr. Zhongshan, the birth of these heavy firepowers is of great significance, not only to protect himself, but also to protect others.
Yue Zhongshan smiled, with a sense of clarity in his words: "That's not true. When I was young, I was also a lone wolf wandering among various forces. I have witnessed the glory of many people and the demise of many forces."
"By the way, do you know about the fortress and the City of Hope?" Yue Zhongshan suddenly asked Li Kui.
"Know."
Li Kui's eyes seemed to sparkle and he nodded immediately.
Yue Zhongshan did not notice this, and continued: "Decades ago, I joined the two largest human forces at that time. Especially from 2065 to 2067, it was considered the first time human beings counterattacked. Massive victory!”
The year 2065 happened to be the time when Li Kui first arrived.
It seems that there is no need to wait to go to Shuguang Library to check the history. The man next to Li Kui is a living history. He asked directly: "Mr. Zhongshan, can you tell me in detail?"
"As someone who experienced it, you must know more secrets than others. Why don't you take this opportunity to tell us."
This topic was brought up by Yue Zhongshan on his own initiative. As soon as Li Kui started talking, he started the topic directly.
Yue Zhongshan smiled and nodded gently: "Okay, let me talk about it a little bit."
After all, it was more than thirty years ago. Yue Zhongshan really needed to think about it seriously. The memories in his eyes became more and more heavy. He said slowly: "I remember that I should have been fifty-nine years old at that time. Then I will be responsible for teaching and training new human abilities in the City of Hope.
"Well...I forgot the specific day. The atmosphere among the city's high-level officials suddenly became very serious. Later I found out that it turned out that the Tower of Hope was destroyed, and the surviving personnel desperately tried to bring back their years of research efforts.
“The senior management did a very good job of maintaining confidentiality.
"I only heard the news from an old comrade five months later. City of Hope has obtained a large amount of very precious basic knowledge of spells, as well as countless ghost spells, including research materials.
"About 1967, at the beginning of the year, the City of Hope officially developed the [Extinction] virus and used fighter jets to release it on a large scale everywhere. This virus only targeted Yaksha and had no effect on humans.
"In the next five years, Yasha, a creature that once feared and hated humans, was completely exterminated."
Yue Zhongshan stroked the short gray beard on his chin and continued:
“Looking back now, those years were really exciting.
"You must know that those evil spirits can force us to the point of being desperate. To a large extent, they are taking advantage of the fear of death of living corpses and the huge number of yaksha.
"Because the war is getting smoother and smoother, the spread of magic knowledge has become more and more important, so the fortress has established further cooperation with the City of Hope.
“One side imparts knowledge, and the other side will share the medicine that can allow ordinary humans to survive mental changes safely.
"At that time, the leader also officially stated publicly that he would pay tribute to those who sacrificed..."
After saying this, Yue Zhongshan's eyes widened, as if he remembered something, and he suddenly turned to look at Li Kui.
At that moment, Mr. Zhong Shan's eyes seemed to convey a thousand words.
Li Kui naturally understood instantly and said with a smile: "Looking at your reaction, it's just the same name, but there are also reasons for this, so I'm quite curious about what happened at that time.
"After all, you also know that some things will not be recorded in books."
If the time interval was only a short five or six years, Li Kui would not mind admitting it readily, but now almost thirty years have passed, and his name has been promoted as a great hero and left in the history books.
Li Kui felt that if there were no special circumstances, there was really no need to go out of his way to say that he was the person who died. The explanation alone would take a long time, and the subsequent impact, whether positive or negative, would be quite troublesome.
The last time he came to Tuwei Wujiusan, he stayed for a month.
This time it’s three months!
To put it bluntly, Li Kui is just a passer-by in the trajectory of life to the world or people. And he has already left his own story here, which is enough for Li Kui.
It’s worth the effort you’ve made.
"Hahahaha, don't be offended."
Yue Zhongshan glanced at Yuan Bin out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that the latter's expression was as usual, he took a sip of hot water and said with an embarrassed smile: "The old man overthought his thoughts all of a sudden, and he was a little out of sorts."
"It's okay. It's not the first time I've encountered this situation. I'm used to it."
Li Kui waved his hand and spoke with unnoticeable complexity in his words: "Mr. Zhongshan, I wonder if you have seen Gao Ling who came to the city with the Tower of Hope information. She..."
"Gao Ling..."
It happened that this topic was brought up. When Yue Zhongshan heard the name, he recalled it instantly and said with a sigh: "I have met her a few times. Unfortunately, in the subsequent drastic changes, Gao Ling died in the war."
"..."
Li Kui opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
However, Yuan Bin, who was next to him, noticed Li Kui's subtle reaction and couldn't help but wonder if the two had a special relationship, so he didn't have the nerve to ask him about it in the car.
etc……
I remember... No way!
Suddenly, Yuan Bin seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils dilated slightly in shock. He glanced at Li Kui with an extremely strange look, and a look of surprise appeared on his brows.
If Li Kui knew the first half of Yuan Bin's thoughts, he would probably only smile bitterly.
The reason why he didn't ask was because Li Kui learned from Yuan Bin that too much time had passed, the City of Hope and the Fortress had suffered drastic changes and disappeared, and the fate of Gao Ling and Lin Qingyan was really unpredictable.
In fact, Li Kui's inner suspicions were gradually leaning towards the bad side.
On the other hand, Yuan Bin has only been here for three short years, and his mission has nothing to do with these things. He may not know the inside story at that time. If Yue Zhongshan hadn't happened to mention this matter, Li Kui originally planned to go to Shuguang Library to read it. Check to see if there are any relevant records.
…
At this moment, Yuan Bin suddenly coughed twice and said something shocking:
"Although Ms. Gao Ling unfortunately died in the war, as her adopted daughter, Dr. Lin is now Shuguang's leading scientific research doctor, and her status is very high!"
At this moment, Li Kui almost wanted to rub his ears. If Yue Zhongshan wasn't right next to him, he really wanted to ask if the Dr. Lin mentioned by Yuan Bin was actually Lin Qingyan!
"Yes, Dr. Lin is really amazing."
Yue Zhongshan nodded repeatedly.
Yuan Bin glanced at Li Kui, his thoughts changed, he crossed his arms and said in a teasing tone: "I heard from Xiao Le that Dr. Lin is very beautiful. I have never seen her. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to meet her in the future." See your true face."
Yue Zhongshan didn't know that Yuan Bin would be so cunning in front of him. He immediately followed the topic and said: "Dr. Lin is a subject of special protection. It cannot be said that there is no chance, but the hope is slim."
"Too."
Yuan Bin chuckled, raised his fingers and said, "Dr. Lin has been constantly improving the extraordinary potions in the past few years and introducing new ones, allowing obsessional weapons to be popularized in the army. New inventions will be released every once in a while. It’s really hard to see without a special opportunity.”
Li Kui on the side heard this, and complex emotions suddenly rose in his heart.
It’s unclear, and it’s unclear.
When he heard the news of Gao Ling's death, Li Kui thought that the young Lin Qingyan would also have little chance of survival. Unexpectedly, the situation turned so suddenly. Not only was he alive and well, he actually became Shuguang's chief scientist.
"Like mother, like daughter."
Li Kui thought to himself: "She has perfectly inherited her mother's clever mind."
On the side, Yue Zhongshan patted Yuan Bin on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's good that you know." Then he stood up and said to Li Kui: "I don't have time to wait for now, I have to make preparations immediately."
It was exactly the plan Li Kui mentioned just now.
"good!"
Li Kui nodded lightly and finally gave Yue Zhongshan a guarantee. "Mr. Zhong Shan, don't worry, there will definitely be no problem, trust me."
Yue Zhongshan said no more, just saluted Li Kui with a military salute, and then strode away.
"Wu Zhong, Guo Yun, you two, come here."
"yes!"
After a while, the team became busy again.
Seeing that no one was paying attention, Yuan Bin couldn't bear to be gossiped about. He couldn't help but whispered to Li Kui: "Brother, Dr. Lin Qingyan is your daughter."
"???"
When Li Kui suddenly heard these words, he couldn't help but raised his hand and gave Yuan Bin a violent shudder. He said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "Her surname is Lin, my surname is Li, how could she be my daughter? Where did you think you were going?"
Xiao Hei next to him grinned a canine kiss, then silently lowered his head, his shoulders trembling.
Yuan Bin covered his forehead and said helplessly: "Isn't it?"
Li Kui was defeated and said seriously: "She is not my daughter."
"Okay, I thought you didn't ask me about this because you had something to hide." Yuan Bin also knew that he wanted to do the splits at this time, and defended in a low voice: "I see that your expression was a little different when you heard the news of Gao Ling's death. , and Lin Qingyan is Gao Ling’s adopted daughter, there might be something in it..."
"Stop it, stop it!"
Li Kui sighed deeply and helplessly: "It's definitely not as bloody as you think!"
