Chapter 207, The Life of Friends with Books


When I returned to Beijing, there was a light snowfall.

When I walked out of the train station, I raised my head while smoking and saw the falling snowflakes.

Li Yulang in front of me was standing behind me with his bag on his back.

He looked at the sky with my eyes, and then asked strangely: "What are you looking at?"

"Winter is coming" Holding a cigarette in my mouth, I walked into the chaotic but bustling crowd. otbnkotgt In the base below Miyun Reservoir, I expected that none of Deputy Director Xia's men came back, but what I didn't expect was.

They didn't come back even after eight years.

It is said that something went wrong over at Wolf Forest, which greatly delayed their progress.

So when I returned to Beijing, I was the only candidate in the huge base.

Coincidentally, after I came back, I happened to meet Old Man Tao and Uncle Jia coming to Beijing to report on their work.

And I took the opportunity to ask Old Man Tao for a lot of information about the Xingyue Demon Palace and my requirements.

Old Man Tao showed a very strange expression at that time.

There was very little information about the Xingyue Demon Palace about the outer world that existed in the mythical era and was obviously far away from today.

Many people feel that even if it really exists, it has been exaggerated, and even if there is such a huge demon palace hanging high in the sky, it must be a large ancient land that is absolutely impossible to be opened by humans.

"Regarding the Xingyue Demon Palace, the earliest exploration began during the Zhu Di period of the Ming Dynasty.

We all know that Zheng He made seven voyages to the West.

Although the first six voyages wasted people and money and caused serious financial problems for the Ming Dynasty, which was not wealthy, it also caused serious financial problems.

It opened up the connection between the Ming Dynasty and the world, and brought back a large number of precious seeds, animals and even foreign envoys.

However, what I obtained from the Ceyang Fairy Mountain.

Judging from the information obtained, it seems that Zheng He's purpose in going to the West was not simple.

He seemed to have visited the East China Sea and visited the connection point between the Xingyue Demon Palace and the East China Sea.

Zheng He did find it at that time. , and recorded it in his logbook, but it was a pity that the logbook was burned later," Old Man Tao said after hearing that I was interested in the Xingyue Demon Palace.

After hearing this.

But I felt very strange, and frowned and asked: "Aren't all the materials in the Immortal Mountain of Keguang kept by the immortal official?

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any materials from the Ming Dynasty."

"I can't explain this clearly.

We not only found a lot of unique and unique materials from the Ming Dynasty in the data of Xianshan Xianshan, but also found a lot of recorded materials from the Qing Dynasty and even the Republic of China.

I think maybe Xianshan Xianshan If return There are many secrets that we don’t know.

Let’s get back to the topic.

During the Qing Dynasty, especially during the Qianlong period, the entire world was connected to the Qing Dynasty.

Many fleets set off to the East China Sea to search for clues about the Xingyue Demon Palace, but as many of them as they went, none of them came back.

After the British Industrial Revolution, when the British and French forces burned down the Old Summer Palace, the Qing Dynasty had no time to do these trivial matters.

So I stopped exploring the Xingyue Demon Palace.

But after the liberation, I know that there are several hidden wealthy people among the people who have been secretly searching for clues about the Xingyue Demon Palace.

My old friend Mr.

Tang.”

I was really surprised when I heard Mr.

Tang's name.

But on second thought, it’s not surprising.

These real big financiers have reached the top of their pursuit of money, and what they want may be something I can't imagine.

Take Mr.

Tang as an example.

I have known him for so many years.

But the number of times we met was not many.

If you think about it, it would not have been more than twenty times, including my mother's affairs.

After all these years, I still can't see through Mr.

Tang.

He is like a puzzler.

There are many things about him that I still can't figure out, such as his age, where his wealth comes from, and how many masters and strengths he has under his command.

Why didn't a big man who could challenge the Haotian family at the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference create a family or organization?

"It seems that the water is very deep here."

I smiled.

"I'll sort out the information on Xingyue Demon Palace, and then find an opportunity to bring it to you.

By the way."

Just when I thought this conversation was about to end.

But Old Man Tao took a few steps towards me, looked at me and said, "Lao Sha has been active in the upper echelons recently.

Although he has always been the director of Institute 507 on the surface over the years, he has secretly collected a lot of information about The secrets of the big shots.

I feel that at the end of the day, these may be what keep him alive.”

"You mean he would threaten the big shots at the top?

He has the guts to do that?"

I was surprised.

"Haha, it's hard to say.

He is Mr.

Sha after all.

Jiayi and I will continue to inquire about the specific situation, and we will tell you when we are sure."

After he finished speaking, he patted my shoulder, his face looked tired and even a little pale. smile on his face.

He said softly, "Just rush forward.

A and I will help you settle these things in a while.

As long as we are here, you don't have to worry about things at home."

Many years later, I remember that after the winter of 2012, I went to visit the grave in Badaling, Beijing, and it was also snowing.

I stood in front of a tombstone that was not very eye-catching or impressive and put down a book.

Old Man Tao had passed away that year, and he was a man who rarely smiled.

He was very serious most of the time, but when I was competing for the directorship of Institute 507, he gave me a reassuring smile.

And that is his smile that is the most profound in my memory.

Even the photo on the tombstone looks so peaceful.

But so serious.

He had very few friends in his life, and I was very irritated when he forced me to read.

Once I couldn't stand this boring life anymore, so I complained to him.

I asked him how he could lock himself in the library day after day, year after year, and read boring books every day.

Those books were not novels or dramas, they were obscure and difficult to understand, and some of the content was simply illegible.

I remember what he answered me at the time, he said: "Some people have many people around them.

They seem happy because they are always in lively parties, but not one of these people may be sincere to him."

Friends.

I don’t have many people around me.

In your opinion, I am a dull person, but I have one most sincere friend, and that is books.

I never regard books as a burden, because I am just such a friend.”

I will remember these words all my life.

People like Old Man Tao may be regarded as weirdos in society, but his achievements are beyond the reach of those who regard him as weirdos in their lifetime.

In the winter of 2012, the book I placed in front of his tombstone was a tale of mountain ghosts that I asked Nagisa to write in the language of ancient monsters.

Since the death of Old Man Tao, no one in the world can understand the ancient monsters. arts.

I stayed at the base for a few days, and it wasn't until eight years ago that I brought people back.

At that time, I was fishing next to Miyun Reservoir.

Fish are very lazy in winter and don’t bite the hook very much.

I sat on the deck chair without thinking about spreading fish food and lazily basking in the sun.

After Zhong BaBa's car stopped, people came out one after another.

When I heard the noise, I looked back and saw that except Zhong BaBa, everyone in his team looked seriously injured.

Obviously, the Wolf Forest War was not a light burden on them either.

I smiled and said: "Oh, isn't this our Earth Immortal master?

Why is he so embarrassed?"

After hearing the sound, Zhong Baizhi glanced at me with an unkind look in his eyes and asked, "You have been back a long time ago."

"Haha, yes, I didn't go to the Wolf Forest."

I shrugged.

"It seems that I have a chance to send you back to the west in person."

Zhong Baba was arrogant and strong enough that he could not tolerate being ridiculed by others, and his hostility towards me became even more intense.

I straightened up, smiled and said: "I have a chance to meet with you, but I don't know who will win when the time comes.

I have already handed over the contract, so you go quickly, I think your people can hardly stand."

Lived.”

Zhong Ba Ba's eyes were even more unkind, and he seemed to want to do something to me.

He just took a few steps toward me when he heard the follower behind him say something, and then glanced at me unhappily before entering the base
