It was already around ten o'clock in the middle of the night when we set off. Zhang Lin was driving, Huang Mao was sitting in the passenger seat, and the burly man and Yang Xuan were sitting in the back seat. Along the way, the yellow-haired man kept turning around to talk to Yang Xuan. He said five sentences before Yang Xuan responded briefly. After a few times, the yellow-haired man stopped talking and leaned on his seat to take a nap.
Yang Xuan took the time to recover from his injuries in the car with his eyes closed and his breath adjusted. At 7 o'clock in the morning, the car drove to a service area in a small county town. It stopped here for about ten minutes. The yellow-haired man and the burly man pulled Yang Xuan I went to the restroom and Zhang Lin was not in the car when I got back to the car. When I came back about five minutes later, I brought two buns, one cup of soy milk and four breakfasts for each person.
Yang Xuan was not polite. He took the breakfast and started eating. When he started off again after breakfast, the yellow-haired man drove. Zhang Lin sat in the passenger seat and closed her eyes to rest. Yang Xuan and the burly man did not change their positions. We arrived at a small town at noon. After Zhang Lin said to rest for six hours, the car stopped at the entrance of a medium-sized hotel. She entered and opened two rooms, one single room for Zhang Lin. A three-bed room is for Yang Xuan and the others.
After entering the house, the yellow-haired man asked Yang Xuan if he wanted to take a bath. Yang Xuan did not refuse and went straight into the bathroom. He had seen bathrooms of this era when he lived in Zhang Wei's dormitory.
When Yang Xuan came out after taking a shower, Zhang Lin called the hotel to send the food to the room. After the three of them finished eating, the burly man took the lead to go to the bed on the far left to cover himself with quilts and rest. Yang Xuan, the yellow-haired man There was a tendency to talk to himself again and he hurriedly lay down on the middle bed and got into the quilt. The yellow-haired man touched his nose and smiled awkwardly before going to bed.
The phone in the room rang on time at 7 o'clock in the evening. When the yellow-haired man got out of the bed grumbling, he found that the burly man and Yang Xuan were already fully dressed and sitting on the bed waiting for him.
When we started again, Zhang Lin was still driving, with the yellow-haired man in the passenger seat, Yang Xuan and the burly man in the back seat. This time they didn’t stop, and on the way the burly man ate the bread he took from the trunk before getting in the car. , arrived at the destination, Chuanxia City, at 11 o'clock in the evening.
To Yang Xuan's expectation, this so-called headquarters was not located in the mysterious mountains or somewhere remote. Instead, it was set up directly in a three-story villa area that looked very high-end. Each villa occupied an area of About 120 square meters.
The yellow-haired man looked at Yang Xuan's expression and guessed what he was thinking: "Haha, I had the same expression when I first came here. Later I found out that there are not many people living in the villa area, they are all rich people. Come and stay here every now and then, it’s safer to set up a headquarters here than to run into the mountains.”
Hearing this, Yang Xuan understood. The small one is hidden in the wild, and the middle one is hidden in the city. Setting the headquarters here will not make people interested in exploring.
Before entering the villa, Yang Xuan stood in the courtyard and immediately sensed at least six different auras inside, one each on the first and second floors, three on the third floor, and two in the basement. He found that they were not concentrated together. , the inner vigilance was relaxed a little, but his face did not show any emotion.
After entering the villa gate, I rang the doorbell at the entrance of the room on the first floor. After a while, a middle-aged woman with permed hair in pajamas opened the door. Yang Xuan didn't feel the slightest aura of cultivation in this woman. The woman was very enthusiastic when she saw Zhang Lin coming in: "Linlin is back so soon this time. Come up quickly. Mr. Huang is on the third floor."
After walking into the door and passing through the entrance, you turn right and there is a large living room. There is a set of sofas and coffee tables in the living room. In front of the sofa is a TV, and in front of the wall behind is a glass fish tank about two meters long. There are fish swimming in it. A few feng shui fish. Looking further along the living room, there is the kitchen and dining room, but you can't see them behind.
During the process of going up to the second floor, Huang Fanan and Yang Xuan whispered: "Hahaha, are you wondering why you sensed that Aunt Li has no cultivation level? You are right, this Aunt Li is just an ordinary person. The headquarters is recruiting residents. When I was a nanny, I told her that my family was engaged in foreign trade online. She stayed at home most of the time. Occasionally she would go out for a few days to discuss business or have clients come to her. She was asked to be responsible for cleaning and cooking on weekdays. She has not noticed any problems after working for three years. Something’s wrong.”
Hearing this, Yang Xuan once again sighed that it was indeed hidden deep enough.
All the way up to the second floor, the second floor is divided into five areas. Go, tea table, billiards, and wine counter each occupy an area. There is a closed room near the stairs to the third floor. There is a sign hanging above [Negotiation Room]. Zhang Lin came to the door of this room and knocked on the door. She said, "Come in."
Entering this room, Yang Xuan saw that there were only two desks and a few chairs. One of the desks was empty, and a middle-aged man about forty years old was sitting on the other desk. There were files in the filing cabinets against the wall. There is a pile of documents, and there is a half-open small door next to the file cabinet. Through the small door, you can see that there are beds and quilts inside, which should be a place for resting on duty. After Zhang Lin entered the room, she called the other party Brother Zhao, then took the folder handed over by the other party, opened a page and filled in something.
After filling in the information, he exited the room and took Yang Xuan and the others to the third floor. On the way, the yellow-haired man actively explained to Yang Xuan that the negotiation room was actually the registration office, and the documents inside were about various business transactions. The communication is actually a cover-up, and the real core is on the third floor.
When he arrived on the third floor, Yang Xuan found a corridor in front of him. On both sides of the corridor were three single dormitories of more than ten square meters with open doors. Directly in front of the corridor was a wall with a wooden door with a fingerprint lock. There is a sign hanging next to it [please enter this private area]
Zhang Lin said, "You two just go back and have a rest. I'll just take him in myself." It was obviously for the burly man and the yellow-haired man to listen. The two of them didn't say much after hearing this. They nodded and said yes, and then each went in. The dormitory door was closed.
Walking to the door to verify the fingerprints, Zhang Lin took Yang Xuan and walked in. There was another hallway after entering the door. A hollow wooden partition with a round arch on both sides of the hallway divided the place into two areas. On the right side against the wall is There are three desks, and on two of them there is a young woman busy doing something in front of the computer.
On the left is a larger desk, and a banner with black characters on a white background hangs on the wall behind the desk: Second Branch of Sichuanxia City Special Incident Management Bureau
Opposite the desk there is a small coffee table, a two-seater sofa, and several chairs. What is worth noting is that there is an elevator door at the very corner. At this time, a man in a white shirt with gray hair, about forty or fifty years old, walked over quickly and held Yang Xuan's hand: "This is Comrade Xiao Yang, my surname is Huang, you can call me Lao Huang. You've had a hard journey, sit down first, Linlin, go make him a cup of tea."
Yang Xuan didn't know how to respond for a while, because it was completely different from the possibilities he imagined on the road. He could only respond briefly and then sat on the sofa under the guidance of the man.
Zhang Lin skillfully boiled water and asked Yang Xuan whether he should drink black tea or green tea. Yang Xuan said black tea. After a while, a porcelain cup with a lid was placed on the coffee table in front of Yang Xuan.
Then Zhang Lin said hello to Mr. Huang, opened the elevator and walked in. Yang Xuan saw from the corner of his eye that the place where the elevator stopped was minus one. It seemed that she was going to the basement.
"Comrade Xiao Yang, don't be nervous. We are just going through the normal procedures and conducting a simple investigation. We won't do anything to you. After checking for a while and everything is fine, you can leave. Of course, if you have nowhere to go, you can also consider joining our special office. Bureau, the treatment is favorable, and you have also seen that we have food and accommodation." Mr. Huang said with a smile.
Yang Xuan would not let down his guard because of the seemingly amiable Mr. Huang's words in front of him. He could clearly sense that the aura of the middle-aged man in front of him was at least in the late stage of the Mountain Residence Realm and had even reached the Escape Realm, which was far better than his own. Now in two or three realms, if something happens to him, Mr. Huang can easily take him down in three or four breaths.
Later, after realizing that Yang Xuan was not willing to talk much, Mr. Huang picked a book from the nearby bookshelf and threw it to Yang Xuan.
About an hour later, Zhang Lin came back with the ding of the elevator, holding three reports in her hand. When she just came out of the elevator, Zhang Lin looked at Yang Xuan with a strange look that she couldn't explain. , told Mr. Huang who was sitting on the chair that the test report had come out, and then handed the report to him.
Mr. Huang quickly flipped through the reports. After flipping through the reports, his expression became strange. He seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and there was something strange about it, as if he had encountered something rare.
Then Mr. Huang turned two of the reports to the last page and handed them directly to Yang Xuandao: "After reading it, tell yourself."
Yang Xuan took the report and only glanced at it. There seemed to be a thunder in his mind, and then his mind went blank, thinking that he had underestimated this era.
The pictures in the two reports were the fragments of clothing and the iron whip that he had when he climbed out of the cave. They ended with almost the same text:
Based on the above reactions, the conclusion is estimated to be 900 to 1000 years ago.
It's over, my identity as an ancient person has been exposed...
