[Dear passengers, this train is the G112 train from 'Su Shi North' to 'Beijing South'. The maximum speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the total journey is 5 hours and 36 minutes, and it passes through the station...]
At lunch time, during the train's small announcement, a young female flight attendant came to Meng Lang and the two of them with a smile.
"Hello, sir, Miss, this business class carriage will provide you with high-quality lunch service. The dishes we provide today include..."
"No, thank you, we brought it ourselves." Meng Lang waved his hand.
"Okay, we will provide you with a casual snack later. I wish you a pleasant meal~"
Watching the flight attendant leave with a professional smile, Meng Lang couldn't help but sigh that the service in this world for rich people is really like home...
"It's just over a thousand, so it's really expensive..."
He complained and took out a thermal box from his small bag.
This was specially prepared for the two of them by Xiaoyu when she got up early in the morning. No matter how good the free lunch in the business class is, how can it be as nutritious and healthy as the loving lunch carefully prepared by the "little chef" at home?
Lin Haitang gave him a funny look.
"I'm so sorry that you bought a business seat?"
Meng Lang took out another set of disposable tableware and handed it to Lin Haitang.
“I bought a business class seat simply because it is the middle car, has fewer passengers, is easier to evacuate, and is relatively safe.
What an injustice it would be if the people were gone and the money hadn’t been spent yet!”
Lin Haitang: "..."
She took the tableware from Meng Lang speechlessly.
"You are afraid of airplanes, and you have to choose high-speed rail seats. Isn't there any means of transportation that you can be 100% confident about?
I've wanted to ask you a long time ago, is your long-standing lack of security considered an occupational disease?"
"Occupational disease?" Meng Lang was confused.
"In your profession, aren't you very careful about your own safety..." Lin Haitang looked at him.
Meng Lang was stunned for a moment before he realized that she was talking about his "members of the intelligence organization".
After all, in movies, assassinations and being assassinated are commonplace.
It seems that Lin Haitang has come up with a very reasonable explanation for his "paranoia of persecution"...
At first he was a little bit dumbfounded.
But then there was some silence again.
In terms of danger and mortality, I am afraid that no intelligence agent can compare with me. If he really got the certificate from Lin Haitang...
"If... I mean if, one day I am really unexpected..."
Before he finished speaking, his cell phone suddenly rang in his pocket, interrupting him.
Meng Lang had no choice but to take out his cell phone and answer the call.
【Hey! Brother Meng, I am Lao Wang!】
"Wang Captain, what's going on?"
[Brother Meng, let me ask you, have you provoked anyone recently?]
Meng Lang was stunned for a moment, "No, what's wrong?"
[No? Then why has someone been checking you in the past two days?
They took away Yuan Li's case files, and they even asked me what was going on with that police consultant.
But don’t worry, brother, I understand the rules and I didn’t say anything!]
Someone is checking me...
Combining the description in the previous autobiography, Meng Lang thought for a moment and guessed who was investigating him.
"Oh! I know about this."
[Got it? That’s it? Brother Meng, please don’t take it lightly!
I don’t think the person who came this time is a small role. Even our director is respectful and obedient. When I asked about the other person’s background, he even said that he would keep it confidential...
I was wondering if the fact that I asked you to investigate the Iwasaki family was discovered, and the other party used their connections in China to prepare for revenge...
It's all my fault. How can such a multinational group be so easy to mess with...
Brother Meng, I can’t help you with this!]
Meng Lang was speechless and thought to himself that you have a rich imagination.
After the last museum theft case, Wang Zhaoping actually asked him to continue investigating the Iwasaki family, and he was determined to recover the Buddha's head from them.
However, the Buddha's head was shattered into pieces, so he didn't take it to heart at all, so he agreed casually and got over it.
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhaoping could be reminded of being investigated this time...
"Don't worry, it's not from the Iwasaki family... I don't have to worry about this."
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a moment, and then he spoke again.
[Okay! Since I’m sensible, I’m relieved. But if you need anything, I must ask!
After all, I’ve been around for so many years, so I don’t have any connections.
If it really doesn’t work, at worst, I’ll ask the mayor for help!】
Well……
If you knew that it was the mayor and his father who was checking me this time, I wonder if you would still have the confidence to say this...
But judging from this, Wang Zhaoping seems to be from the same faction as Hu Yonghua?
"Okay, I will definitely ask if necessary!"
After hanging up the phone, Meng Lang secretly thought that the man in the capital was really planning to make it clear to him.
By investigating yourself so blatantly, you don't have to worry about yourself noticing if you make it clear.
Compared with Hu Yonghua's behavior of wandering in the mountains and fog, the old man really has a military style.
Two words... direct!
However, speaking of the Iwasaki family...
"What's the matter?" Lin Haitang couldn't help but ask when he saw Meng Lang's thoughtful expression after answering the phone.
There was a lot of noise on the high-speed train, so naturally she couldn't hear the details of the conversation between the two.
However, the word "Team Wang" in Meng Lang's mouth still made her a little worried.
It's usually not a good thing to have anything to do with a criminal investigation captain...
"It's okay, didn't I have a consultant with Team Wang...business consultation."
"Iwasaki family? Sounds like a Fuso name? Do you have overseas business?" Lin Haitang looked suspicious.
"It didn't happen before, but in the future... maybe it can be developed..." Meng Lang chuckled.
Seeing Meng Lang's relaxed expression, Lin Haitang felt relieved a little, stopped asking questions, and opened the lunch box.
"Okay, eat quickly, the dumplings are getting cold."
Looking at the steaming dumplings in the thermal box, Meng Lang's appetite suddenly whetted.
"Hmm...white teeth!"
Lin Haitang ate the dumplings absentmindedly, but he thought of Xiao Yu and Yan Weiwei who stayed in Su City.
Although I only went out with him for two days, I was still a little worried.
Xiaoyu doesn't need to worry much.
Mainly Weiwei...
She glanced at Meng Lang beside her, feeling a little guilty.
I hope...don't think too much...
…
Su City, an expansion training base.
The original "XX Training Center" sign has been taken down and replaced by "Liangshanbo Extreme Training Center"...
"Ah~~~"
Three muscular men, Ah Xing, Li Lei, and Xiang Wenlong, raised their heads below and followed the kicked figure down. Finally, the "grasshopper" tied to the rope jumped back and forth a few times.
After that, the shouting finally stopped.
"Why don't you scream anymore?"
"Hmm...it looks like he fainted?"
"Tsk, tsk! Poor little Zheng... such a jumping method would make anyone faint..."
"Hey! Have you noticed that Master Yan... seems to be a little irritable today?"
"Huh? Do you feel this way too?"
"..."
"What are you guys mumbling about?" At this time, Master Li walked over with his hands behind his back.
"Oh! It's nothing, nothing! We were talking about little brother Zheng Wan.
Don't tell me, Master. Although he became a monk halfway and seems to have mediocre qualifications, this little brother's willpower is really good.
If it were a young man, he would have given up long ago if he was tortured like this every day."
Master Li looked at Zheng Wan who was being slowly put down, hanging upside down like a salted fish, and nodded slightly.
"Perhaps this is what makes him so good.
Okay, don't be lazy and give me training!
This is an opportunity that many people dream of. You may only encounter it once in your life. It’s up to you whether you can grasp it..."
Not long ago, the company finally opened "hidden benefits" to these first batch of captain-level employees.
In order to facilitate training, a special venue was reserved and a "Extreme Training Center" was built.
but……
Li Lei was hesitant to speak, "Master, can this secret recipe really help you cultivate dark strength? But the disciple has been practicing for so many days and he doesn't feel anything at all?"
"Me too..." Ashing, a master of practical combat, scratched his scalp.
What is meant by ‘reaching the extreme of emptiness, keeping quiet, strengthening one’s will, and weakening one’s bones’…
I can't understand it, I can't understand it at all...
"I have some experience. The content inside is somewhat similar to our Buddhist 'meditation' method.
High-altitude tightrope climbing, freehand rock climbing, extreme bungee jumping... These extreme sports are obviously aimed at stimulating the spirit...
It’s about ketones, alcohol, endocrine, this is really confusing..." Xiang Wenlong also spread his hands.
"Do you think this is the multiplication table that one person can learn?" Master Li rolled his eyes at everyone.
"If you know how to use hard skills, you are at best a reckless man!
My master once said that the more advanced Kung Fu you practice, it is no longer about cultivating the body, but about cultivating the mind.
The seniors who have achieved An Jin also said that the key to breakthrough is not how much proficiency you have in External Jin, but whether you can grasp that trace of 'Qi'...
This secret recipe, which combines the ancient cultivation system with modern medical science, is certainly extraordinary.
As for those scientific explanations...well...
I remember Xiao Zheng, isn’t he a biology student?”
Li Lei slapped his forehead and said, "That's right! No wonder Master Meng fell in love with him. He is so perseverant, professional and relatable!"
"So I ask you to read more books, and you also need to use your brain when practicing martial arts. If you have time, please ask Xiao Zheng for advice!"
The three of them looked at each other.
Although it is a bit difficult to ask us old men to study biology at the moment...
But... that's an opportunity to break through the dark power!
"I understand, master!"
…
When Zheng Wan opened her eyes in a daze, she found that there seemed to be several extra hands on her body.
One of them is still pinching himself...
Who am I? Where am I? I feel dizzy...
"Ouch! Wake up, wake up!"
"Come on, Xiao Zheng, have a drink of water!"
"Quick! Fan yourself."
"Uh..." Zheng Wan looked at the three muscular men surrounding her with enthusiastic faces, and was so frightened that she had goosebumps all over her body.
"Three... three masters, what are you..."
"Hehe! Xiao Zheng...how do you guys usually treat you?" Axing winked.
What about me?
Are you referring to your Dingbabu abdominal strike? Or are you talking about his tendon-splitting and bone-splitting hand?
How do you treat me? Don’t you have any idea in your mind?
"Of course it's good... Thanks to a few masters, my ability to resist blows has improved by leaps and bounds..." Zheng Wan said with an awkward smile, against her will.
"Well! I just said that Xiao Zheng is a good person and can see our good intentions!"
Li Lei immediately gave a thumbs up and grinned.
"Three masters, what do you want to do? It seems it's not training time yet, right?" Zheng Wan felt uncomfortable being surrounded.
"Ahem! It's nothing. I just haven't made much progress in my cultivation recently, so I came here to share my experience with you." The arrogant Xiang Wenlong coughed dryly.
"What do you think? What do you think?" Zheng Wan looked confused.
I am a beginner, and you experts who can kill me instantly want to share your experiences with me?
"For example, what are the biological laws, how to regulate endocrine, etc.?" Li Lei was persuasive.
"Ah?" Zheng Wan was stunned, thinking about it and scratching his head in embarrassment.
"The three masters were joking. I don't have any experience. As for how to adjust endocrine, there is nothing that humans can do...
If I really want to talk about my experience, it is that I will do whatever the master tells me to do.
When I'm sparring with your masters, I just use whatever moves you use, and I don't have any other ideas in my mind?"
"that's all?"
"That's it."
Zheng Wan looked innocent.
"I have never practiced kung fu before, so I just wanted to imitate a few masters."
Xiang Wenlong looked at Zheng Wan and touched his chin.
"Well! The spread of martial arts started from imitation. Maybe it's because you, Xiao Zheng, have no distracting thoughts, so you have made great progress in your moves during this period..."
"hey-hey!"
Thinking of the heroes saving the beauty at the airport, Zheng Wan couldn't help but giggle.
"Imitation... that's right! What I'm best at is actual combat. Instead of studying theory, why not practice with Master Yan to learn more about the power and method of exerting force?"
Ah Xing hammered his right hand with his left hand, looking like he was awakened.
"What are you thinking about? Why do we need secrets if we can imitate? We can just go find the masters of Anjin to learn from each other." Xiang Wenlong rolled his eyes.
"Maybe, if it doesn't work once, we can try ten times. If ten times doesn't work, we can try a hundred times. There is always a chance, right?"
Li Lei, who is also a practical person, also echoed.
"When it comes to imitation, when we learn the secrets, aren't we also imitating the wisdom of our predecessors?"
"I think..."
Zheng Wan scratched his head as he listened to the heated discussion between the three people.
"Three masters, although I don't know much about that secret book, I think...
Imitation is walking on the road paved by others. Although it is easy, what you reach is the destination of others.
From a biological point of view, everyone is a different individual, with joint positions, bone lengths...and even the position of the heart in some cases being opposite.
So what is suitable for others may not be suitable for you..."
"Huh?!" X3
The three of them looked at Zheng Wan.
Imitation is walking on the road paved by others. Although it is easy, what you reach is the destination of others...
What suits others may not suit you...
Zheng Wan, who was being stared at by the three people, shrank his neck, thinking that he had said something wrong, when he heard another voice suddenly coming from his ear.
"Yeah! That's good!"
Yan Weiwei had already walked down from the bungee jumping platform at some point. When she heard Zheng Wan's words, she couldn't help but nod her head in praise.
"Now I understand why that guy took a fancy to you. Your qualifications are a bit average, but your understanding is pretty good."
After looking at Ah Xing and the others present, she said again.
“The secret guide leads you in, and practice depends on yourself.
After all, this tip is the experience of others, and experience and practice are naturally important, but in the end, you still have to innovate based on your own situation..."
Xiang Wenlong nodded with enlightenment. "Yes! What Master Yan said makes sense. It seems that we are too blind to the secrets."
Li Lei also had a look of realization, but then he looked at Yan Weiwei with some admiration.
"That's true, but it is said that Master Yan, you were on the eve of the mountain climbing meeting and only practiced for a few days in total before you successfully broke through the dark power.
From this point of view, Master Yan’s qualifications are indeed rare to see in a thousand years, far beyond what we can match..."
The other two people also looked at Yan Weiwei with envy.
"Well……"
Yan Weiwei's face suddenly looked strange.
Can I say that this tip is suitable for me for some reason?
The road he built seemed to be the same as his own, so he reached his own destination simply by imitating me?
It’s quite outrageous…
After complaining for a while, I didn’t know what I was thinking of, so I couldn’t help but sigh.
"It's rare to see someone in a thousand years. In terms of qualifications, there is another person who is beyond my reach..."
"Ah? There is such a person? Who is it?" Li Lei and the others asked curiously.
"Sister Weiwei!"
At this moment, a childish voice suddenly came from behind...
Everyone turned around and saw a six or seven-year-old girl carrying a small schoolbag running towards them, smiling and waving to them.
"Xiaoyu, why are you here?" Yan Weiwei was stunned for a moment.
Xiaoyu, who ran up to the crowd, patted the small schoolbag behind her with a blushing face.
"Hehe, I'm afraid that Sister Weiwei won't be used to eating outside, so I came to bring you lunch!"
"Such a sensible little sister, Master, whose child is this?"
Zheng Wan stood up while rubbing her still weak legs and asked curiously.
Yan Weiwei glanced at him lightly.
"She's neither big nor small, so what do you call me little sister... I call her uncle!"
Zheng Wan: "..."
