Chapter 175 Fisherman's Clothes
"Oh, is that so? Professor Yang." Lin Cheng put the box at his feet, against the wall, so that it would not block the way, "Look, you told us another piece of news worth thinking about. Something to think about It’s too much, and we’ve got to keep going like this.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Geng Shuming. Professor Geng was tightening the buttons and drawstring of his jacket.Sensing Lin Cheng's gaze, he raised his eyelids and looked at Lin Cheng, then straightened the last button with a smile, and said, "Indeed, if the commander hears it, he will be very happy too."
Yang Qihua tilted his head, his eyes looked elsewhere, he was calm and cruel, and even his words carried the simplification and dullness unique to scientific workers: "It sounds like you guys are getting along now."
"No, it's not 'you', it's 'us'," Lin Cheng said, pressing back against the half-person-high railing and propping up his arms, "it's everyone in this temporary base. Professor, you can't exclude yourself When all people are united, Mount Tai can be shaken."
"'Only loyalty and righteousness, the bullfight with anger'? I still remember this sentence. I heard you singing just now. You really know how to earn the tears of us old people." Yang Qihua pointed to his eyes, Then he lowered his head to fiddle with a pen in his hand, smiling very faintly.
"That couldn't be better. I also hope that your tears are for heroes, joy and not sadness." Lin Cheng said, he coughed a few times, his face flushed, "Let's talk about the dam thing , if Professor Yang is willing."
Yang Qihua turned his head and glanced at the laboratory. His researcher was putting the injured fox into the disinfection box and scanning its whole body.It is estimated that he is not needed in the laboratory, Yang Qihua stepped on his heel and nodded: "I have already told you all what I have experienced. In the beginning, we came here to do some scientific research tasks. After all, I am just a scientific researcher. Expert, I was not a president at the time. I don’t know why they built dykes, cities and ports, that’s not my concern.”
"Then who was the person in command at the time? There must be someone who gave the order."
"There is no commander, expert Lin." Yang Qihua said, "What I can tell you is that the army is involved, half of them are soldiers, and half are executives. As for the command, I have never seen it before."
"Where's the mark?" Lin Cheng asked, he folded his arms, trembling from time to time, and finally sat down beside him, "There are marks on the tree trunks in the forest, for guiding the way."
Yang Qihua looked at Lin Cheng, and frowned to show that he knew nothing about it: "What mark? We didn't leave a mark when we came here through mountains and rivers. We were just figuring it out."
Lin Cheng didn't ask any further. He breathed out on his palms, propped his knees, stared at a spot on the ground, and said, "Then have you encountered any danger? Tsunami, or hurricane? Or something like that?"
"Tsunami, a big tsunami. We didn't expect this situation, so we suffered heavy losses." Yang Qihua said, his voice gradually became distant, like an echo from ancient times, "After the tsunami passed, the dams were repaired. I'll be back when it's half done."
"How many people came back with you?"
"All scientific research experts and laborers, as long as they are non-combatants, have all evacuated. There are about 200 people left, half of the army and half of the time bureau. Only four of them came back in the end. I don't know who they are, only four of them came back. personal."
Geng Shuming stretched out his finger and said, "Out of two hundred people, four came back?"
Yang Qihua raised his eyes to look at Professor Geng, then lowered his eyes again, swallowed his throat, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes, four of them, the others are all dead."
"All the laborers have returned, which means that the rest of the project was completed by those two hundred people?" Lin Cheng clenched his fingers and bit his lower lip.
"It stands to reason that it is. But when you think about it, dear executive, it's not normal. Those four people returned after a few months, and in conversion, they probably spent no more than a year here. It may Can it be done? Oh my God, I can't imagine."
Falling into silence, the silence slowly devours the truth like quicksand.They will never understand what happened to the two hundred people left behind, where are their bodies, and whether their souls have been wandering in this unowned land?
"I told you that I haven't experienced much. If you want to know the whole truth, you may have to find someone more trustworthy than me." Yang Qihua said after silence.
"Why did you return early when you were halfway done? Did something happen? Professor, you haven't told us all this time."
"The superiors said that there was a problem with the return passage, and there was an empty crisis, so they called us back urgently." Yang Qihua tapped a finger, "But I think this must be just an excuse, and there must be something hidden in the other. Maybe they don't want us to see something thing."
"What is it?"
"Dragon King."
"Dragon King?"
"I'm guessing. I know shit. I have nothing more to say, no comment."
The conversation came to an abrupt end.Yang Qihua leaned against the glass wall, raised his chin and looked down at the researchers passing by in the opposite corridor. His face was clean-shaven, and his coat was white and stiff.Lin Cheng tightened his lips, staring up at Yang Qihua's lips, thinking about his next plan.
"Would you like a cup of coffee? Mr. Yang." When Geng Shuming walked over, he was covered in the bitter aroma of ground coffee beans, "There is only Wallenford in Jamaica left, I don't know if you like it or not. "
Yang Qihua took the cup from Geng Shuming's hand, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, as if flowers were blooming in the cup.The brutal calm on his face melted into the aroma of the coffee and disappeared, replaced by the slightly seductive color of ripe berries.
"Nothing can make me happier than wallenford. Thank you, Mr. Geng Shuming. Maybe I shouldn't call you that. Do you have a better way?" Yang Qihua clutched his cup, the wrinkles on his face Stretched out, you look ten years younger.
Geng Shuming didn't make coffee for himself. He rubbed his hands—his hands hadn't warmed up after a heavy rain at the detector wave launcher.Geng Shuming put his hands in his pockets to keep warm, then turned to Lin Cheng and asked, "What do you usually call me?"
Lin Cheng was arranging his cuffs. Hearing this, he raised his head and wiped a few strands of hair back. He stared at Geng Shuming for a moment, raised his eyebrows and replied, "We all call you Professor Geng. Do you have any questions, Professor? "
"Oh, no problem, of course there is no problem." Geng Shuming shook his head, he seemed uncertain and hesitant, and pursed his thin lips, "They all call me Professor, Professor Geng."
Yang Qihua took a sip of coffee and suddenly laughed. He looked at the eyes behind Geng Shuming's glasses and patted his arm: "You look much more interesting than many people I've met. Why didn't we come sooner Do you know me? It's a pity."
Geng Shuming didn't speak, Lin Cheng coughed again, Yang Qihua put his eyes on Lin Cheng, and walked closer: "You don't look well, are you sick?"
"A little fever." Lin Cheng sniffed, the tip of his nose was completely cool, his cheeks and eye sockets were flushed, "Maybe it's because I was exposed to the rain just now, and it's easy to catch a cold. Look at my hair, it's not dry yet, I We have to figure out a way."
Yang Qihua reached out to test Lin Cheng's body temperature, his skin was slightly hot, then he brushed Lin Cheng's wet hair, and twisted his fingers: "Idiot, don't you know what to do after you get wet in the rain? Poor boy , why are you trembling all the time?"
Opening Lin Cheng's eyelids and carefully inspecting his eyeballs, he found that the pupils were dilated and bloodshot, like a drunk who hadn't fallen asleep for a week.Yang Qihua put down his hands and asked, "What stimulated you just now?"
Lin Cheng made a few gestures and said, "The glass of the electrical signal monitoring station was shattered, and it happened that seawater poured in and drowned it. I just drowned for a while...I can't swim."
"Drowning? Why don't you just run?"
"Because my computer is still in the water, of course it won't work! I have to put my computer away and take it away, and of course stay underwater for a minute or two."
"Then something happened?"
Lin Cheng moved his lips, nodded at last, and looked away: "Well, I was about to suffocate, and then I was rescued. I went to the geological platform to find a place."
Yang Qihua glanced at Geng Shuming, and turned Lin Cheng's head: "I heard that the water in the electrical signal monitoring station is not very deep, and you can walk out standing up. How can you drown? The executive cannot go out here. kind of mistake."
"At that time, the glass was splashed, and the waves rushed in and knocked people down. What can I do?" Lin Cheng's emotions suddenly became agitated, "Don't mention this again, professor! It's very annoying!"
He gasped for breath after he finished speaking, looking extremely tired.He pressed his chest, closed his eyes for a while and then calmed down. Then he realized that his words were inappropriate, so he hurriedly got up to apologize, and raised his eyelids to look at Yang Qihua's face.
"It's okay." Yang Qihua turned around and said, with an embarrassed expression, he waved his hands, "I asked too many questions, sorry. I'll go get you some medicine for your cold."
He handed the coffee cup to Geng Shuming, then pushed open the door of the laboratory and walked in, turning around to let Lin Cheng in.Yang Qihua went to the cubicle to look for medicine, which was full of cardboard boxes with the names and quantities of medicines written on the boxes.Lin Cheng walked in, and smelled the mixture of cardboard, alcohol, and aromatherapy, as well as the cool wind when the air circulated.
Yang Qihua bent down to move several boxes away, squatted down to check the printouts on the boxes, and lit the flashlight.Lin Cheng looked around the small cubicle, except for a few cabinets of biological specimens, there were medicine boxes, which were unremarkable, and this kind of scene could be seen in any place where debris was piled up.Surrounded by these, however, was a glass case carefully placed in a safe corner, containing a bust of a mannequin stretched with some sort of black fabric.This artwork is clearly not in the style of a scientific worker.
"I found some pills and capsules for you, and you keep them by yourself. There are instructions on them, just read it yourself." Yang Qihua compressed the irrelevant words as much as possible, "A cold is not a trivial matter, you have to pay attention to it." .”
"Thank you, Professor, you are really kind."
"Oh, am I kind? It must be your illusion. To be honest, I was in a bad mood when I saw you just now. But why did I suddenly feel better?" Yang Qihua shrugged, "Maybe it's that A cup of coffee? Who knows."
He handed two bottles of medicine to Lin Cheng, wrote a list, stuffed it into the box, and closed the box lid.Lin Cheng shook the medicine bottle, making a rustling sound, then stuffed the bottle into his pocket, bulging like a hedgehog who had stolen grapes.
Yang Qihua put on his badge and was about to go out when Lin Cheng suddenly stopped him, pointed to the glass jar in the corner and said, "What is that? It looks like some kind of post-modern artwork. It is a cultural relic you found on this earth Is it? Unbelievable."
"No, that's not a cultural relic, it's a new fiber I developed, a high-performance bulletproof vest." Yang Qihua said after a while, and he also turned on the light in the corner, walked to the glass jar and put it on. The half-length model moved out, "I was about to take this to show the commander, and I heard that he was seriously injured and has been unconscious. There is no other way, so I have to keep it here temporarily, although I am a bit aggrieved. No way , Expert Lin, please don't touch it casually."
Yang Qihua blocked Lin Cheng's finger, Lin Cheng withdrew his hand and asked, "Is it dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous. It's just to maintain the integrity of the sample. Please don't touch it casually." Yang Qihua said, he opened a metal box next to him, took out a few stacks of documents from inside, and showed Lin Cheng, "These are test data. It's invulnerable."
Lin Cheng read it quickly, and then his eyes were filled with anticipation: "It can be put into mass production, and then we can all have it? Professor, you will definitely be famous for this invention."
"If you get the approval of the commander and the patent office, you have hope to wear it. I can guarantee that it is definitely lighter and more convenient than all the body armor in the world today, and it has top performance. After all, its total weight is only three grams, like a piece of armor. feather."
"Oh, my god, professor, I don't know what to say. My god, what should I say?" Lin Cheng touched his hot face, and he moved closer to check the fine lines on the body armor, " Is this real? How on earth did you do it, Professor?"
Yang Qihua smiled, he didn't answer Lin Cheng's question.He reached out and calmly put the bust into the glass jar, then locked the door latch.He sorted out the documents, put them in the box, pointed to his temple, and said, "Think about nature and get inspiration from nature."
Geng Shuming didn't enter the cubicle, he waited outside with a coffee cup in his hand to keep him warm.He exhaled, looked down at the red fox in the glass incubator, and asked the researcher next to him, "Is the fur on its body still growing well?"
Holding the glass, the researcher hesitated, and said, "Most likely it will heal, but I'm not sure. Also, its leg was broken by a tree, and its bones were shattered. Even if it can be cured, it can only walk with a limp. "
"Then it's really unfortunate." Geng Shuming raised his eyebrows up and down, blinked, his eyes were full of sympathy, "but it will be fine, the commander must like it very much. "
"I hope so." The researcher said with a smile, he stepped aside and continued to do his own thing - recording the data on the computer into the form one by one.
Geng Shuming and Lin Cheng walked out of the laboratory together, Yang Qihua stayed inside, bid farewell politely, and then put on the mask and gloves again.Lin Cheng took off his coat, and then put on his own: "The executive officer of the geological station lent it to me, please return it, professor."
"Aren't you going to the geological station? The electrical signal monitoring station may not be able to function normally now."
"It should be repaired, they rushed to repair it quickly." Lin Cheng said, he turned over his collar and lifted the box, "Didn't the colonel tell me to go back to the monitoring station? I have to obey the order."
Geng Shuming put his clothes on his arms, so he couldn't say more. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and asked, "Xiao Liu, you just said that you can't swim? But isn't swimming a must-have skill for every executive?" ?”
Lin Cheng smiled, did not evade the question, and replied: "For some bad reasons, I never learned to swim. I'm a little...afraid of water. Is it naive? But it is true."
Geng Shuming suddenly understood why Lin Cheng was suddenly emotional just now, and the real reason for his "drowning".But the professor didn't say much, he raised his hand to say goodbye to Lin Cheng.Just as he was about to turn around, Lin Cheng stopped him and said, "Professor, if you hear any news about 0010 and 0578, please tell me. I hope it will be good news."
"Are you worried about them?"
"They are all my friends, especially..." Lin Cheng opened his mouth, did he continue to speak, he swallowed the name, paused for a while before continuing, "Very good friend."
After he finished speaking, he nodded awkwardly, smiled with difficulty, turned his head and left as if running away.
"Hey, did you see just now? The profiling expert specially hired by the commander almost drowned in such a high water!" Someone was speaking in the corridor. He was wearing a vest, and his skin was wet with water. Light is gesturing.
All the people around laughed, showing unrecognizable laughter, like an echo in the mountains.Someone went on to answer: "If you say he is an executive, he can't even swim; if you say he is a profiling expert, I haven't seen him do anything serious; if you say he is a hacker, he is not a professional, but he is fully responsible We monitor the work of the station. Tell me, what is this called?"
"His father is a high-level executive in the Time Bureau and the head of the Equipment Department. This time, he was specially hired by the commander. Tell me, don't you know what's going on here?"
The laughter sounded again, and there were voices of dissent among them: "The commander never makes mistakes when looking at people. There must be a reason for assigning expert Lin to be in charge of the monitoring station. The profiling expert only works for the commander. Of course we can't see what he did. It's okay. Stop gossiping here, bastards."
Lin Cheng carried the suitcase through the corridor, he didn't stop, and all these trivial words floated into his ears, like embroidery needles, piercing his heart carefully.He stopped when the laughter sounded, glanced at the crowd, didn't speak, turned and entered the monitoring platform under repair, sat down by the sparking computer, and put the box at his feet.
"Sir."
Lin Cheng was setting up the computer screen when footsteps suddenly came from behind him. He glanced back indifferently, raised his hand and pulled a lock of hair on his cheek behind his ear: "You are the one who called them bastards, Sergeant ?”
The sergeant had straight eyebrows and eyes, and when facing Lin Cheng, he looked straight ahead, with a blade hidden in his eyes.He pressed his fingers precisely to the seam of his trousers, and replied, "Yes, sir."
"En." Lin Cheng supported the table, clasped his fingers, and nodded.He tapped on his toes, staring at a computer with a black screen in front of him, his lips were peacefully drawn together, and his hair was curled into a small fluffy bun at the back of his head.
The sharpness on his body is not as exposed as other executives, maybe his facial features and hair soften the sharp expression on his face, or maybe he was not born for fighting.His brows were as pale as water, but the aroma of vodka was strongly exuded.
Lin Cheng coughed violently for a while. He took out a medicine bottle from his pocket and poured a few tablets into his palm. Suddenly, a glass of water was handed over to him. The sergeant stood beside him and said, "Warm water, sir. You may have a cold, and you need to rest well." .”
"Thank you." Lin Cheng blinked twice, calmed down, raised his hand to take the water glass, and swallowed the pill in one gulp.
"Tell them all to go back to work." Lin Cheng ordered, and he stuffed the medicine bottle into the box, "I heard someone gossip again, and add extra guarding tasks. In my name, that is, the director of the electrical signal monitoring station identity. Soldiers, execute immediately."
After Chen Wei woke up, He Luan lay in bed for seven days, and he was still in a coma.Chen Wei flipped through the instructions in the medicine box, prepared the medicine bit by bit, and then injected He Luan on time.He made a form to record the time and dosage of each medication.
Chen Wei has to pray every time he takes an injection, although he doesn't believe in God, and he won't believe in God in the future.The moment the needle stuck into He Luan's arm, he felt that he had accomplished a great task, and He Luan would definitely wake up after the needle.
When the date of the seventh day was crossed off by Chen Wei, he prepared the potion as usual, and then sat by the bed to give He Luan an injection.He put his hand against He Luan's cheek, and gently stroked the skin beside his cheek with his thumb.The skin is slightly cool, with a touch of warmth.
He repeated this action every day, and when his fingers brushed against his skin, he always felt that He Luan would open his eyes in a second.Chen Wei leaned over and kissed He Luan's lips, then put on gloves, pushed the needle into the vein, and slowly injected all the medicine into the blood vessel.
Just when the needle was half pushed, He Luan's chest suddenly heaved violently, and then he coughed, his fingers tightly gripping the Oxford blanket under him.Chen Wei was frightened suddenly, he pulled out the needle and threw it aside, and went forward to hold He Luan's cheek.
"Oh, God, God." Chen Wei said, his heartbeat was so intense for the first time in seven days, as if it was going to jump out of his chest, "God must have favored me."
He Luan coughed weakly, Chen Wei helped him breathe, covered his cold neck with his hands, and called his name softly.He Luan opened his eyes in the flickering candlelight, the orange halo gave his lips a thin layer of glaze, like arabesque on Nordic porcelain.
It was as if there was a thick fog in front of his eyes, and there was a voice calling from afar in his ears, someone was calling his name.The world that had been silent for seven days finally returned to its original appearance, and my soul finally found a shelter in the wandering brigade.
"Weiwei?" After waking up, he still couldn't see clearly, so he called out the name subconsciously.And all the panic and panic in Chen Wei's dream came to nothing because of this well-timed response.
Chen Wei hugged him tightly, buried his head in He Luan's neck, like laughing and crying.After a while, He Luan felt strength in his hands, he raised his arms to hug Chen Wei's back, and then separated him a bit.Only now did he see Chen Wei wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, still pretending to be calm.
"You finally woke up, damn it, you lay in bed for seven days, and all the injections didn't wake you up, I fucking thought you were dead." Chen Wei cursed and wiped his tears, " I was thinking just now, if you don't wake up after this injection, I will shoot you in the heart and go on my own way. Damn, what shit, you bastard made me suffer so much, I hate you , you are a complete bastard!"
He Luan listened to his swear words verbatim, Chen Wei's eyes became redder, and he scolded He Luan from beginning to end.He Luan pulled poor Chen Wei into his arms, hugged him, and patted his back gently.Chen Wei was thinner than when he came, and his back was full of bones.
"Fuck / you / uncle, do you know how scared I am? I dream that you are dead, and I will go to your funeral." Chen Wei hugged He Luan's shoulders, buried in his neck and cried, "You Damn, why are you giving me the pressure of the ballast suit, idiot..."
"Okay, stop scolding, I'm an idiot. Be good." He Luan said, his throat hurt badly, "I'm still alive, and you are alive, we are lucky enough. Don't cry, save your tears for later."
"In the future? When will it be in the future?"
"Some happy moments."
Chen Wei was silent for a while, then kissed He Luan on the neck, and said, "I am very happy now."
"How did you live these days when I was unconscious?" He Luan sat on the side of the stone bed to get dressed after routine cleaning, and Chen Wei brought him hot water.
"Study the medical instructions, it says how to wake you up. I just need to follow the steps above, carefully prepare the medicine, and then inject it for you. Look here, it's the techniques and acupuncture points for massaging the muscles and bones. I Press this for you every day, so as not to make your muscles atrophy." Chen Wei took a sip of water and pointed to the small square table opposite, "I found a pen, a bottle of ink, a lead lead in the drawer, and There is a piece of sulfuric acid paper."
He Luan tied up his leather boots and buckled the boot clips: "What are these things used for?"
Chen Wei walked over and took off the sulfuric acid paper that was spread on the table, carefully hung it up against the map on the wall, and said, "It's for tracing. I traced the entire map, and it took four days." I’ve only seen Fu Zhong use this to draw construction plans before, so I asked a few more questions and learned some knowledge, but I didn’t expect it to come in handy at this time.”
He Luan smiled softly, his body was still a little weak, and his strength had not fully recovered.Chen Wei flipped through the instructions, found some correct food from the food box, and then put it into the pot to cook. Soon the cave was filled with the usual aroma of the kitchen.
"We were rescued by someone. I don't know who it is. When I woke up, I found that we were here, and there was no one else. Everything was well prepared, food, water, medicine and even weapons. Maps and sulfuric acid paper were also deliberately left behind. Yes, even the route is marked." Chen Wei said while stirring the food in the pot, he was shrouded in steaming heat, as if floating in clouds.
He Luan looked at the map on the opposite wall for a while, but said nothing.After a while he fixed his gaze somewhere, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where are we now?"
"This is an underground cave with traces of man-made excavation. The location is probably here." Hearing this, Chen Wei stood up and walked aside. kilometer."
"No. You see, this is the Yuzui Pass, where we were killed. On this map, it is 12 kilometers away from Mount Kailash. But when we were in the special warfare formation, we always thought that it was only 2 kilometers away from the destination. It was [-] kilometers away. The Mount Kailash we saw at that time was indeed close in front of us, tall, straight and majestic, like an unreal illusion.”
Chen Wei supported his back, tilted his head, and continued to look at the milky white soup boiling in the pot: "Indeed, I realized the problem at the first glance when I saw this map. So I have been thinking about it for the past seven days. , which data is correct?"
