Just as Mai Shutoku was lying on the ground, half-dead listening to her boss fooling the Dragon King, her sister Aki Shutoku had just come out of the room with Ye Sheng, standing on the deck, looking solemnly at the floating water below.
of dragon corpse.
The dragon servant who just rushed out of the Bronze City had obviously never seen a cannon or magic. Faced with the combination of the two forces, he turned into a ball of rotten meat floating on the water after three rounds of bombardment.
Black and red blood flowed out from those large and small wounds, the steel fragments were attached to the blue light, embedded in the dragon's flesh and blood, and a hazy white mist floated on the river. In this late autumn, Yaji actually felt it
A little hot and dry.
That was the heat emitted when the dragon's blood met the water. Aki held on to the railing and watched as the surrounding ships surrounded the dragon corpse in an orderly manner and began salvage operations.
The pollution brought by the dragon's blood made the waters filthy. The fish and shrimps turned white under the toxicity of the dragon's blood and floated on the water, making the scene look like a mess.
Several other boats were wandering around. The staff on the boats carried huge iron buckets, scooped out white powder from them, and threw them on the river. The white powder and the black dragon's blood met in the water, turning the water into
Into a turbid gray.
"What is that?" Aki asked, pointing to the ships splashed with powder.
"Purification powder, the latest product of the alchemy department, can eliminate part of the toxicity of dragon blood." Ye Sheng stood next to Ya Ji, adjusting the somewhat wrinkled tights: "But we usually don't waste it like this. You also know that dragon blood
Quite expensive.”
Yaji turned his head and saw Ye Sheng's childish smile. He panicked for no reason. He secretly rubbed his index finger with his right thumb and stuttered: "Yes, yes, the same is true for the execution department. I still remember our first time there."
Mission?"
"That time I broke an alchemy blowtorch?" Ye Sheng shrugged: "Professor Mance almost shot me that time. That blowtorch was an antique from the fifteenth century."
"But later we found out that it was a fake," Yaji looked into Ye Sheng's black eyes and said, "That's why Professor Mance didn't ask you to compensate."
"Thankfully he didn't, otherwise my parents would definitely beat me to death." Ye Sheng pulled the collar. When the two of them interacted in the cabin just now, the diving suit had some wrinkles, and now it needs to be adjusted.
But the hazy atmosphere between the two was quickly broken. Director Liu took a small boat and returned to the battleship. As soon as he got on board, he saw two young men and women chatting with each other on the side of the ship.
"It seems that you are not affected," Director Liu patted Ye Sheng's shoulder with his hand, a sly smile on his face, and a coat draped over his tight diving suit.
Staring at Ye Sheng who had just woken up from his memories.
Ye Sheng was smart, and the relaxed expression on his face suddenly disappeared. He turned around like a reflex and saluted: "Leader, you are ready to go at any time."
Director Liu curled his lips and thought to himself, if I hadn't pulled my hand quickly, you would have broken a bone in this moment. He said to Ye Sheng with a blank look on his face: "Xiaoye, come here, I have something to tell you."
He turned his head again, looked at Aji who was standing aside, nodded politely, and said, "I'm sorry, Commissioner Aji, due to unexpected circumstances, the action may be a little delayed."
Yaji nodded and looked at Ye Sheng who was captured by Director Liu, naturally showing a trace of worry.
Ye Sheng wore wide flippers on his feet and followed Director Liu into the cabin, finding an empty cabin to sit down.
Director Liu looked at the iron railing at his hand, and there was a clanking sound, which made Ye Sheng raise his head. He looked into Ye Sheng's eyes and asked seriously: "You didn't say anything that shouldn't be said, did you?"
"No, she just asked me where I went after graduation and talked about some things about Lop Nur." Ye Sheng was shocked and quickly shook his head, indicating that he did not reveal the secret.
"Just talk about Lop Nur in general, don't go into details," Director Liu warned, and then showed a strange expression: "I smell the fragrance on your body, I didn't do anything I shouldn't have done."
"That's true. I know discipline." Ye Sheng, neither standing nor sitting, tangled his hands together and was obviously panicked: "Things like that need to be reported."
"It's not that exaggerated. You should do it before marriage, but not after marriage. However, it is generally not recommended to do it before marriage." Director Liu nodded. He studied medicine and was quite familiar with the relevant policies.
The two communicated for a while, and after asking everything about what had just happened, Director Liu let Ye Sheng, who was sweating profusely, let him go.
"Wait a moment, wait until the logistics people clean up the river surface, and we will prepare to launch the water." Director Liu ordered, Ye Sheng said yes repeatedly, and left the room like flying.
Ye Sheng came out of the cabin with sweat on his head. Yaji looked at his red face and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the mission?"
"It's nothing, just...just some small personal issues." Ye Sheng scratched his head, feeling so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.
"Then why is your face so red?" Aki tilted his head and asked in confusion.
"I...I'm full of energy, excited, excited." Ye Sheng stammered, and it took him a long time to calm down.
Fortunately, the little awkwardness between the two was quickly broken by time. Huaxia cleaned up the battlefield very quickly. Half an hour later, the huge Dragon Warrior corpse on the river disappeared. As for the corpse that would appear in Huaxia later
Which department it belongs to is unknown.
The team that was about to go into the water sat on the small boat and arranged their equipment. Due to the dragon's blood, several people changed into new diving suits, helped each other with their exposed skin, and then got into the water one by one.
The river water that had just been messed up by the dragon servant was a little turbid. Ye Sheng turned on his flashlight and swam in the river. Next to him was Ya Ji in the same posture. Director Liu walked in the front, leading a few people to Bronze City in a familiar way.
direction.
Not long after, the bronze door carved with twisted faces was already in front of us. Somehow, perhaps because the living beings were in a weird state when the magic of the activated object was lifted, the face on the door looked crooked.
, like a clown in a circus.
"Pfft..." Ye Sheng heard Aji chuckle next to her, and several small bubbles spurted out from her nostrils, spinning upward.
A gap opened in the bronze door, and the team slipped in through the gap.
