After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the male protagonist is not allowed to ge

When Mr. Yao Donglin finished his noon meeting and returned to his office, a bird with black feathers and red eyes had parked beside his window, waiting for him quietly.

Seeing this situation, he was taken aback for a moment, and Yao Lao, who hadn't seen this little guy for almost ten days, couldn't help but smile when he thought about it, and when he went up to open the letter on Yingque's feet, he put it in his own drawer After the half-pack of alcoholic peanuts left over in the restaurant was given to the little black bird who came all the way to deliver letters to him, Lao Yao, who leaned back on the seat, unwrapped the letter in his hands and glanced briefly, frowning deeply. His expression was a bit indescribably complicated.

Of course, the letter was sent to him by the mysterious Lord Shenshu. In fact, they have maintained this kind of private contact for a long time, and since the Xiao Ao incident, he did not know why he was in a hurry. After leaving the capital, most of his contacts with Yao Donglin were through this mysterious black bird.

In the last letter, Mr. Yao, who was worried that he would still miss the follow-up, specifically told him about Xiao Ao being forcibly placed in a nursing home for recuperation. He didn't care, and he didn't know what to do with the crazy Xiao Ao next.

And this time the letter came at a more coincidental time, just as the human government had begun to show favor to him frequently recently, and Old Master Yao also wanted to discuss with His Excellency the Divine Tree what to do with the following matters.

But before he finished reading the long letter Wen Ying gave him, the secretary outside suddenly knocked on the door carefully. He replied in a low voice, Xie Qin thanked the researcher for coming, and said he wanted to see you.

As soon as he heard the name, Yao Donglin, who knew he couldn't be too negligent, nodded, and after he put the letter sent by Wen Ying to the side drawer, he signaled the secretary to bring him in.

And when the strange thin man with pale skin and hair slowly walked into the old man's office and sat down slowly, Yao Donglin first smiled politely at him, and then turned to the military officer who was said to have returned to China not long ago. The anthropologist said slowly,

"Mr. Xie, what can I do for you today?"

"Well...Actually, Mr. Xie has some personal matters to bother Mr. Yao. I went abroad with my mother before I was 20 years old. I just came back not long ago, and I am not very familiar with the domestic situation. Before, I asked the general to change from a human household registration. I have been looking for it for a long time, but there is no detailed and clear result, so now I want to see if I can narrow down the scope of the search from the Plant Household Registration Office."

Hearing Xie Qin's tone of voice, Yao Donglin realized that he didn't come to discuss business matters with him, but had other private matters to discuss.

Based on the attitude of doing him a favor, Yao Donglin asked in a very easy-going manner if he was looking for some old acquaintances, and Xie Qin, who seemed quite aloof at first glance, also nodded slowly when he heard the words. He took his hands on his knees and rolled up his sleeves lightly, revealing a bright red poppy flower tattoo blooming on his wrist, then narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully,

"My mother was separated from her elder brother for some special reasons many years ago. Afterwards, she traveled all over the country to find her relatives, but to no avail. Later, she met my father incognito and started a family. She chose to go to the Living abroad to recuperate, but in her heart, her brother's recent situation has always been something she is very concerned about. Before she passed away three years ago, she told me about her brother Zhiming, so I wanted to see if I could come back this time. I found my uncle's family, but there are too many people with overlapping names in the human household registration, so I want to check from you again..."

"Um, as far as I know, Mr. Xie, you are a complete human being, so your mother..."

"She is an opium poppy... so I was thinking that since I couldn't find my uncle, it would be much easier to find the same opium poppy carrier in my uncle's descendants, but I can't Sure, the probability is very small after all, because I will go to Gang Rinpoche with the expedition team of the military department the day after tomorrow, so I took the liberty of interrupting you first. If you have any news from your side, you can tell me when I come back. Thank you very much.”

Xie Qin's words made Yao Donglin nod knowingly. Plant-like human beings evolved from species like opium poppy are actually rare. If you really want to search for it, the probability of being found must be very high, so Mr. Yao thought about it. After thinking about it, he agreed to the matter first, then watched Xie Qin who was obviously relieved and said a few more words with him, then politely and politely got up and left.

……

Just as Jiang Shanglu and Wen Ying felt on the mountain, Ms. He and her party at the foot of the mountain are indeed in a lot of trouble at the moment.

At first they didn't feel anything unusual, because it was already late at night, Cao Kongming and the others also started to take out their sleeping bags and prepared to lie down by the fire again.

But I don't know who in the team said hello first, did you hear any strange voices? After everyone quieted down in doubt and turned their heads to listen together, everyone realized that there was indeed a strange sound. The sound of wings breaking through the air was indeed slowly approaching them from above.

And just as the boy among the young white-collar couple climbed up from his girlfriend's side to look at the sky in the night, and frowned and muttered what the hell it was, suddenly a large amount of sand fell from the sky. The fire in front of them was buried, and then the suffocating darkness quickly enveloped them, and the young man's screams and cries for help rang out along the way.

"Help!!! Ah!!! Help me!!!"

"Xiao Dong!! What's going on! Everyone find your lighters!! Take out the lighters!!"

For so many years, I have been traveling alone in Gang Rinpoche, but I have never encountered such an unimaginable thing. Seeing that Ms. He, who has a gentle personality, made a decisive decision, quickly pressed the lighter on her hand and shook it violently at the surroundings. Down.

After seeing the flames appearing around her in twos and threes, she saw at a glance that Xiao Dong just fell on the ground crying and covering her bloody face, while his girlfriend held her lighter and hugged her. After shaking their heads and crying loudly and shouting something, everyone who was still in shock froze for a moment.

"Mr. Dong? Ms. Liu...what...what's going on?"

Seeing this, Cao Kongming, who was pale, wanted to go up to see their situation. Miss Liu, whose hair was disheveled and squatting on the ground, looked panic-stricken, pointing her trembling fingers to the sky and sobbing continuously.

Seeing her obviously terrified appearance, before everyone around them had time to react, the middle-aged man who used to talk to Wen Ying before also uttered a tragic cry in the darkness behind him.

"... Mr. Cui!!!"

Hearing this movement, Ms. He's face was already very ugly. She held the lighter and hurried back a few steps, only to see that there was already a half-head lying on the side of the sleeping bag. What raptors attacked the male corpse.

Seeing this, he stopped immediately. Cao Kongming, who was standing behind Ms. He, covered his forehead and shouted, my Jade Emperor, with a broken face. Then he turned his head and shouted to everyone around him in a low voice. ,

"Listen to me! Stop using your lighters! Put out the fire in your hand!! It's a vulture! It's a vulture! Don't let them find us!! Get as far away from Mr. Cui's body as possible!!! Cover Mr. Dong's wound!!"

As soon as the scary word vulture came out, the faces of all the people present turned ugly instantly, but they had only heard of vultures eating dead human flesh before, and they had never come to attack living people so blatantly, but now this kind of With one dead and one injured, even if you don't believe them in your heart, there is nothing you can do.

So everyone, including Ms. He, could only extinguish the lighters in fear, and lie on the ground tremblingly listening to the vultures circling back and forth above their heads, making some frightening crying sounds from time to time.

"...Dong Jian...Dong Jian...yes...you hold my hand...don't be afraid...yes...we will definitely not die..."

The voice was very low and hoarse, and she comforted her boyfriend in a low voice. Miss Liu's words made everyone in the dark feel a little bit distressed. They wanted to go up to see her boyfriend Xiao Dong's situation, but they didn't dare to act rashly.

Accompanied by this suffocating atmosphere, the vultures who had observed them in the sky for a long time swooped down again, but this time they did not attack the people lying on the ground, but turned into a few unbelievably huge The black shadows flew down and threw themselves on the corpse of Mr. Cui, looting for a while, and then neatly carve up an adult's corpse in a terrifying tearing sound that made everyone terrified, before flying away.

"...they...are they gone..."

Another older woman in the team cried and asked softly, but no one dared to speak or move easily at this time, because even Cao Kongming, who was the most courageous, was a little weak at the moment. Can't get up.

But just when everyone thought they would have to spend a long time here, in the distance, a warm and coquettish fire lit up on the edge of the rock wall halfway up the mountain, and the first person who stood up staggeringly Ms. He eagerly raised her head to see that the two were walking slowly together, and one of them, who seemed to be dressed somewhat familiarly, gradually appeared in their field of vision.

"What happened."

Wen Ying, who had been deliberately pushed away by that Mr. Cui before, asked aloud through the veil, and then lowered her head and looked around at the mess in front of her.

However, after seeing Mr. Cui, who was left with only a pool of rotten meat and bones, Wen Ying frowned obviously as if he noticed something unusual.

Jiang Shanglu, who insisted on coming over with him to take a look, was relatively friendly, and walked directly to the obviously injured Ms. Liu and Dong Jian, and slowly squatted down, and asked Wen Ying to find some on the way. The herbs were handed to them lightly, and they smiled kindly at Ms. Liu.

"Crush it in your teeth and apply it on the wound to stop the bleeding, but it will hurt a little, so you have to bear it yourself."

"Well... thank you... thank you..."

The young couple who were still in shock stammered together and thanked the man who was also masked and could not see his face clearly. Looking at Cao Jian's wound, Jiang Shanglu, whose eyes were a bit obscure, shook his hands and replied, "It's okay, and he is slowing down again." After Xu stood up from them, he turned his head and glanced at the men and women behind him who seemed a little restless because of the inexplicable appearance of himself and Wen Ying.

"Thank you... I didn't expect you to come back on purpose. This... Is this the gentleman who was not feeling well during the day?"

This time, Ms. He, who was pale, took the initiative to speak to them first. This guy Wen Ying didn't say anything when he heard people greet him proactively, and Jiang Shanglu who was standing next to him was inexplicable with a stern look looking elsewhere. Some want to laugh.

And at the moment, he didn't take off the veil that Wen Ying put on for him because he was afraid of his respiratory tract infection. He just leaned down and shook hands with Ms. He who was watching him, and twitched the corners of his mouth in a vague way.

"Yes, Ah Shu has already told me, and thank you and everyone for your help to us before. The two of us just happened to hear some movement in front of us, so we decided to come over and have a look together. Now you here If you need any help, just say it, everyone is away from home, and we must help each other."

Jiang Shanglu's friendly attitude made Ms. He, who didn't know what to do, moved inexplicably. She nodded and wiped her red eyes, and then called Cao Kongming and the other two men in the team to use her The jacket on his body first covered that Mr. Cui's body, and then helped Xiao Liu to slowly help the injured Dong Jian to the edge of the rekindled fire.

After finishing all this, everyone sat down by the fire, and while stabilizing their emotions, they began to discuss how to report to the local police and notify Mr. Cui's family after going back. As soon as he moved his lips, these people who didn't know the situation completely believed what he said, and became one with these people after a few words.

"Well, his name is Ashu, and my surname is Jiang. If you think highly of me, you can just call me Lao Jiang. Yes, we did come here from Xinjiang to find friends, but I'm not in good health. He took care of me after hard work on the road... Oh? Did you go to the Cheshi Ancient Road last year? It is indeed worth a walk there. The former Cheshi dynasty left a deep imprint on that land. Yes, this season There are also a lot of hikers there, and the road is quite difficult, oh, thank you..."

He casually took the cigarette handed over by the middle-aged man beside Ms. He who had initiated a conversation with him, and made a gesture to light it between his fingers. Jiang Shanglu, who hadn't communicated with anyone outside for a long time, raised his eyes casually while speaking. , but happened to find that Wen Ying, who was sitting next to her, was frowning and staring at herself.

And quickly withdrew his hand to take the matchbox in his pocket, Jiang Shanglu, who knew that Wen Ying would definitely scold him in private later, couldn't help laughing, put the cigarette between his fingers and listened to the middle-aged man in front of him with red eyes He said angrily,

"...Speaking of which, Lao Cui and I went with me on the trip to Xinjiang last year. He has a bad mouth but is actually good. Before he came here this time, he was thinking about it for a long time. Now that this has happened, his wife The children are going to cry to death at home...these god-killing vultures, the bastards who kill without batting an eye..."

What the middle-aged man said made everyone's eyes red, a living life was lost just like that, even if there were any conflicts before, everyone didn't care about it now, and even thinking of the life and death disaster that they suffered just now for no reason, their hearts shuddered They are still jumping desperately.

But when they saw this, they immediately watched the expressions of all the people present. Jiang Shanglu and Wen Ying didn't say anything for a while. After frowning inconceivably, he suddenly said with a complicated expression,

"Well, don't you all think that today's incident is very strange..."

Cao Kongming's words attracted everyone to look at him collectively. The golden-haired boy was inexplicably nervous seeing everyone staring at him. After thinking about it, he lowered his business and seemed very incomprehensible. .

"Why do vultures eat living people so well? And haven't you all seen those black shadows... Do you really think that such a big thing is a bird? No matter how big a bird is, it can't be as big as it is? Don't you Do you think this place is really strange, Mr. Jiang and Xiaoshu, I won’t ask you if you didn’t participate, don’t the rest of you really think…”

Cao Kongming's words silenced everyone who had seen it for all to see. After a while, Ms. He suddenly lowered her head and covered her eyes with an uneasy expression, and began to cry. It's good to make everyone like this.

And Cao Kongming, who had been taken care of by her all the way, was embarrassed to embarrass her at this moment, seeing her being made to cry by himself, immediately closed his mouth in embarrassment with the blaming eyes of these people around him.

After witnessing this scene completely, Jiang Shanglu, who squinted his eyes, suddenly laughed strangely, and then he took the initiative to pass a clean handkerchief to the crying Ms. He, and after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly looked away. To all the people in front of him, he said slowly with a somewhat cold tone,

"Thinking about it like this does seem a little problematic... After all, according to what you just said, the vultures here are really too smart. They will know how to use sand to put out your fire first, and they will also divert your attention to attack a People, wait until the target you really want to eat is ordered, and even think about it deeply, they actually know in advance which one of you is the fattest? That Mr. Cui should be the latest because of this. Are you watching?"

"Hey... Is it possible that these birds are smarter than humans? I just don't know if I will have another meal tomorrow after eating this meal today. After all, you have been hiking all the way up the mountain, and your muscles have been exercised It's very tight..."

Jiang Shanglu's words that seemed to be joking made people feel a little creepy. Anyway, Cao Kongming and others' faces turned a little bad when they heard it, and they just stared straight at Jiang Shanglu, who was smiling but not smiling. Speak casually.

And Wen Ying, who sat next to him for a long time, saw that his Jiang Shanglu started to frighten people casually like a mentally ill person who had not been shut down, so he decided to be kind for a while, and gently arched his waist from behind to signal him to click. So far, he said lightly,

"He likes to joke, don't take it seriously."

After Wen Ying said this, the others couldn't care less about this Mr. Jiang who likes to make scary jokes. After chatting for a few more words, they arranged their sleeping bags together and prepared to rest. They didn't even think about what to do tomorrow. How to deal with the messy things tonight.

But seeing Jiang Shanglu and Wen Ying, two weirdos without any psychological barriers living in the sleeping bag of the dead Mr. Cui, they could only close their eyes and lie down anxiously as if they hadn't seen anything.

And even though I have been eating and sleeping in the wild all this time, being taken care of by Wen Ying is more comfortable and comfortable than the emperor every time. It is rare to squeeze so hard together with him in this broken sleeping bag, with my back behind my back to deliberately avoid other people's attention The two of them, Jiang Shanglu, were lazily pillowing on the young man's comfortable arms, and leaning against him again, talking in a low voice.

"The two of us probably didn't think about it this time, did we?"

"Well, no."

Wen Ying's still very calm answer made Jiang Shanglu couldn't help laughing. The moment the two made eye contact, both sides seemed to have enough tacit understanding to let the other know what they were thinking.

And since they came here after going down the mountain, they have already realized from some clues that this group of people may be in trouble. The alien's every move, just wait for the helpers of the demons hovering in Gang Rinpoche to come out.

"Try not to disturb the others and catch the one hidden in the team. The evolution is indeed very perfect. If it weren't for the eyes of the bird, it would always look a little special in the dark. I can't see anything wrong with her in the daytime. ...But it happens to be able to bring some game up to Xiao Wang and the others on the mountain to make chicken soup, so as not to go all the way to the door without bringing anything, it seems how stingy we are.”

"Well, I'll find some ginger on the way."

The two slumbering guys finished their half-joking private exchange, and leaned together to pretend to fall asleep. After a while, in the night, a shambling black figure faintly crawled out of the sleeping bag next to it. Come out and get up slowly.

When the shadow with tense eyes carefully walked a dozen steps towards the rock wall next to it, waving its arms and trying to fly, a strange scent of flowers suddenly came from the darkness, which made her dizzy all of a sudden , and then a dozen branches protruded from the ground together to bind her legs.

And after dragging violently all the way, and then tied up the man's body and hung him upside down on a withered boxwood tree, Wen Ying, who had woken up at some point and followed him, was expressionless. He picked up the lighter in his hand and took a picture of 'Ms. He' who is no longer a human being or a bird.

Jiang Shanglu, who had been standing beside him for a long time, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled at this pale-faced female vulture-like person in a particularly pervasive manner.

"Jiu Yang, the legendary 88 demon who is good at taking human form to deceive humans and eats human flesh for a living, where are you going now?"
