The secretary lowered her head and did not dare to answer.
There was a row of special service members standing at the entrance. Xing Zhuoshan frowned when he saw it: "What? There's a guy from the other side, and he's an old acquaintance of mine. Are you still afraid that he'll eat me?"
Captain Xu Ruidong, who temporarily took over the special service brigade, saluted: "Report to the old secretary, we are acting under orders."
"Acting on orders? Whose orders? Zhang Yenan's?"
Xu Ruidong said without changing his expression: "It's an order from the Supreme Military Commission."
Xing Zhuoshan's frown deepened, and he murmured to himself: "The Supreme Military Commission... The Supreme Military Commission... What age is this? They are still doing the same old things."
Xu Ruidong didn't say anything, he still stood guard in front of the door.
The other party asked Xing Zhuoshan by name to come over for negotiations. Now that Xing Zhuoshan is here, the door to the conference room is indeed closed.
"Open the door."
Xu Ruidong didn't move. He just said: "We can't open the door without orders from our superiors."
Xing Zhuoshan's face changed: "I've betrayed you! What do you think this place is? Who has the loudest voice here? You brat! When your father was promoted to major general, he still treated me with respect! He's not that tall.
Eye-catching thing! Get out of the way!"
Xing Zhuoshan didn't like Xu Ruidong's behavior. He stepped forward and pushed the stupid young man away.
Xu Ruidong wondered: "Old Secretary, aren't you making things difficult for me? Your superiors have said that you and this person in the room are old classmates and comrades-in-arms, and we cannot let you meet until we figure out the specific reason."
Xing Zhuoshan glared: "Shut up! When you open your mouth, there is a superior, and when you shut up, there is a superior! Listen clearly to me, there is only one superior here! That's me! I am your most senior! If you don't listen to me,
I’m going to take off your outfit right now!”
Xu Ruidong had no choice but to get out of the way.
The door of the conference room opened, and the man in the room stood in front of the window. From there, he could directly see the central main support axis of the shelter. Hearing the sound of the door opening, the man who came to negotiate alone turned around with a smile.
He looked at Xing Zhuoshan: "Old classmate, long time no see."
Xing Zhuoshan did not let anyone else follow him. He looked at the camera in the conference room, then walked to the conference table, knocked the pipe in his hand and said, "Mr. Ma, what are you doing? Do you know what you are doing?"
Is it a capital crime? Your wife and children are still over there in Shanghai! How dare you?"
Ma Xianmin.
Xing Zhuoshan's old subordinate when he was the commander of a certain military region in North China was also his old classmate. Back then, the two of them worked together to take the lead in implementing the central government's policies and brought order to the army. They were regarded as stars.
Unexpectedly, two soldiers from a military region were now standing in completely different positions.
Although Ma Xianmin is already seventy-five years old this year, he seems to have taken a life-prolonging elixir these years. Not only does his skin have no wrinkles at all, but even his hair that should have been gray is black and shiny. In contrast,
Next, although Xing Zhuoshan is not much inferior to the Ma ancestors in terms of momentum and stature, his vicissitudes and aging are visible to the naked eye.
There was still light in his dim eyes, but Xing Zhuoshan couldn't see through his old classmate and subordinate who he once trusted the most.
"Brother Shan, don't be angry first. Let's sit down and have a good chat. Maybe after you listen to what I said, you won't think I'm crazy."
The title "Brother Shan" is really unfamiliar to Xing Zhuoshan, who is nearly eighty years old. However, back then, even in important meetings, Ma Xianmin rarely called Xing Zhuoshan commander. He mostly used it when training together in the special operations camp.
Brother Shan and Brother Min call each other.
Now times have changed. Xing Zhuoshan, who had retired from the army and was recuperating at home, has been rehired by the central government as the top manager of Refuge No. 1 in Xiongan New Area. This decision is like moving a piece of Taishan stone to the house, mainly because he believes in the old commander.
The stability and foresight of a member of the gang. And Ma Xianmin had a fight with someone because of some personal grudges. He was forced to draw a gun and shot three gangsters who committed violence against his relatives. Originally, this matter could be settled quickly, but
Because one of the four bullets fired accidentally killed an underage girl, Ma Xianmin was expelled from the military and ended his military career early. In my impression, Ma Xianmin later became a businessman and started an ecology business in Hainan Province.
With the development of the park, things are booming.
But now, when they met again, Xing Zhuoshan never dreamed that Ma Xianmin would become his "enemy".
"What's there to say? You killed my people. The oldest of those children was only forty years old, and the youngest was only nineteen years old. You committed such a thing and you still want to brainwash me? Are you able to wash it cleanly?" Xing Zhuoshan said.
He said so, but he still sat down on the chair.
Ma Xianmin also sat down, sitting opposite Xing Zhuoshan.
He smiled, lowered his head and opened his collar, revealing the wound on his shoulder blade and said, "Brother Shan, do you still remember this gunshot wound?"
Xing Zhuoshan glanced at it and said nothing, but he already guessed what Ma Xianmin was going to say, so he snorted coldly.
"You remember." Ma Xianmin smiled bitterly: "Back then, the minister wanted to use the military as a big piece of cake, and he wanted to divert financial funds as much as possible to scientific research and aerospace. As a result, the knife has not been drawn out yet, and those who are waiting to share the cake are eagerly waiting.
You little bastard made the first move."
Speaking of this, Xing Zhuoshan snorted coldly and said: "Don't talk to me about these things. Let me ask you, where is the person? Where is he hiding?"
However, Ma Xianmin unhurriedly re-buttoned his buttons and said: "Brother Shan, when I say these things, it does sound like a cliché, but I am willing to work for the organization, but have you ever thought about why, after going through so much, the world's people
Just don’t have a long memory? Not to mention ordinary people, just take those individuals who originally wanted to kill us two. Which one is not an intellectual? Which one has a lower education? Fewer military medals? Are they still doing the same thing for thousands of years?
Those old tricks that bring harm to the country and the people? For their own selfish desires, not only did they dare to take risks, they even scolded us on the trial stand, saying that we were traitors, unworthy of wearing that military uniform... Hehe... now think about it... too
I don’t know if their thoughts have been poisoned, or if we mortals are just like that and can never get out of that circle.”
Xing Zhuoshan heard some clues after hearing this. He raised his eyes and asked Ma Xianmin: "So you became the savior? You want to teach us how to do things?"
Unexpectedly, Ma Xianmin shook his head and said bitterly: "What kind of savior? Brother Shan, others don't know it, but you must know it very well. My college entrance examination score was barely enough to reach the threshold of a military academy. When I was in college, I was almost killed several times.
Expelled, even in the army, with you taking care of me, in the end I still made a big mistake and was kicked out of the organization. What qualifications do you think a person like me has to be a savior?"
"Then what do you mean by saying so much just now? Are you a repeater? Can anyone teach you how to fool me?" Xing Zhuoshan glared at Ma Xianmin angrily.
Ma Xianmin smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Shan, I am indeed not qualified, but I am not stupid. I can see clearly. If we can't wait until the sun rises in the east this time, it won't matter no matter what we do now."
Things...but what if?"
"What if?" Xing Zhuoshan frowned, and the tobacco in his mouth became extremely spicy.
Ma Xianmin tapped the table with his nails and said: "What if the sun can rise again, and the world will still be the same? Then do you think it is better that the sun has risen, or should it not rise again?"
Xing Zhuoshan unexpectedly did not continue after hearing this sentence.
Ma Xianmin seemed to have sensed Xing Zhuoshan's intention. He stood up and said: "Brother Shan, for thousands of years, every struggle has required bloodshed and sacrifice, but if those who have faith look forward and backward, and are full of women's kindness,
How to achieve great things?"
Xing Zhuoshan glanced at him, his pipe clenched tightly.
Ma Xianmin continued: "Brother Shan, you may not know that in fact, I have not only been doing business in Hainan these years, I have also quietly done some shady things for the First Central Axis. You know what they did before the disaster struck."
What have you been tinkering with for more than ten years?"
Xing Zhuoshan asked: "Tell me."
"Tying with immortality, tinkering with genetic mutations, tinkering with super humans." Ma Xianmin said it very clearly and directly.
Xing Zhuoshan's pupils dilated, and he was extremely shocked, because these things are "taboo content" that violates basic human ethics. "You fart! Stop talking nonsense here! What does the first central axis do! What does the organization do!
Will you watch them act recklessly?"
However, Ma Xianmin shook his head and sat down, then pointed at himself and said, "Brother Shan, look at me."
Xing Zhuoshan actually believed in his heart that Ma Xianmin was not lying, but he still couldn't accept this naked reality, and he couldn't accept the betrayal of this era for people like him who adhere to the belief in reality.
"I am three years younger than you. I am seventy-five and you are seventy-eight. But my body is no different from those young people now, but what about you? Genetic technology is a forbidden area, but that is the traditional concept of the past. If we want to make human beings
To achieve a true breakthrough, we must face this reality! Therefore, no matter how the past ideas are spread and how they are defined, they cannot prevent the birth of super humans, unless all mankind decides to wait for the end of civilization on the earth...
"Xianmin Ma said and took out a box of medicine. There were only three pills. They were bright yellow and crystal clear. They looked like essence fish oil capsules.
"Brother Shan, even if your body is still strong, you can only live for another thirty or forty years at most... But as long as I have these medicines, I can live for at least another half century, and... with you
When I'm old, my brain is confused, I'm losing control of my bowels, and I can't take care of myself, I can still go to the battlefield with a gun. This is the gap, this is reality." Ma Xianmin pushed the medicine over, and the medicine box
It rolled to Xing Zhuoshan's hand.
At that moment, Xing Zhuoshan felt as if something was burning the back of his hand. There was a huge conflict in his ideology. He suddenly knocked the thing to the ground. The medicine box opened and the capsule rolled to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Ma Xianmin showed a hint of disappointment.
"Don't fool me! Although I am not specialized in biological genetic research, I also talked with those scientists during a meeting in Beijing. They said that although biological genes were decoded a century ago, it is really
It's hard to go to the sky with a knife to touch the Creator's preset sequence! Don't think that just because you have had plastic surgery or dyed your hair, you can sit in front of me and say that you don't have these things, I don't believe it!" Xing Zhuoshan resisted!
His stance on biological genetic modification is very firm, but his voice is trembling.
Ma Xianmin was speechless. He stood up and walked over to pick up all the capsules on the ground.
When he took it in his hand, Ma Xianmin said: "Brother Shan, in fact, Mr. Shan arranged for me to come here this time without asking me to fool you or persuade you to join us. I felt that after all, I am a comrade. Since I can see clearly, I believe
Brother Shan, you can also see clearly, but now it seems... I'm overthinking..."
Xing Zhuoshan looked slightly panicked, but he quickly stabilized his emotions.
He looked up at Ma Xianmin and said, "Then stop talking nonsense and just sit down and talk business."
Ma Xianmin smiled slightly: "Okay."
Before Ma Xianmin could reach his seat as he was about to sit back, the door to the conference room was suddenly knocked open and a tear gas canister was thrown in.
Xing Zhuoshan and Ma Xianmin, who were very familiar with this scene, looked at each other. Xing Zhuoshan immediately pulled out his gun and shouted at Ma Xianmin: "Don't move! Stop!"
Ma Xianmin smiled slightly, raised his hand and said: "I won't leave, but it seems that our business is going to be ruined. They no longer care about the lives of those hundreds of people."
Xing Zhuoshan was shocked when he heard this. When he was about to say something else, gunshots were heard behind him.
At that moment, Xing Zhuoshan thought that Xianmin Ma would be the one who fell in the next second. But when the bullet passed through Xing Zhuoshan's own chest, Xing Zhuoshan realized that Xianmin Ma was right... they no longer cared about the lives of those hundreds of people.
But who are they...referring to?
Ma Xianmin's face changed when he saw Xing Zhuoshan being shot. He originally raised his hand to reach behind him, followed his arm to bring up the afterimage, drew the gun, raised the gun, and fired. All these actions were done in less than a quarter of a second.
Completed within.
The explosive bullets fired from the special pistol exploded behind Xing Zhuoshan, forming an invisible wall of air! All the bullets intended to kill Xing Zhuoshan were blocked.
This bought Xing Zhuoshan valuable time.
The old general's sword was still young. Although he was shot twice, he turned over and jumped into the middle of the long conference table and entered the back of the bunker.
Outside the door, Xu Ruidong's men immediately launched a counterattack after discovering that the so-called support troops who had just arrived at the refuge were pointing their guns at the old secretary. However, the opponent's combat strength far exceeded Xu Ruidong's relatively poorly equipped troops.
Task Force.
So once the two sides exchanged fire, seven or eight people on Xu Ruidong's side fell instantly.
The remaining ones were already locked by weapons before they could raise their guns. Xu Ruidong, who was shot three times, was stepped on by the woman wearing a black exoskeleton.
The other party opened his mask, revealing a charming face that was both angry and happy. Xu Ruidong took a closer look and was shocked and speechless.
"Shh!" The woman made a silencing gesture, then raised the muzzle of her gun and fired a bullet, hitting the eyebrow of a special service member who was quietly picking up the weapon and planning to fight back.
When Xu Ruidong saw this, he was very shocked and furious. As soon as he said "Draw it up!", the other party hit him on the forehead with the butt of a rifle, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
Almost at the same time, these well-equipped black-armored soldiers who used the credentials of the First Central Axis Task Force to enter Shelter No. 1 in Xiongan New Area occupied all key areas of the shelter in just fifteen minutes.
Eleven people from the core leadership were captured, including Xing Zhuoshan.
As for Ma Xianmin, he disappeared after shooting to save Xing Zhuoshan. He seemed to feel that there was no need to continue the negotiation since the business had collapsed.
While the upper area is occupied, the middle area is still peaceful and harmonious.
Nowadays, most people are accustomed to saving energy and water, and not many people feel that such a life is very difficult. After all, they have survived this way before.
However, Zhou Baoyu, who had just regained consciousness after a day and night of rescuing, was a little out of control.
After he woke up, he opened his mouth and shouted, "Brother~~~Sister-in-law~~~~"
This voice almost scared the little nurse on duty to death. You know it was in the middle of the night! All the patients in the ward were already asleep, but this guy sat up and howled like a corpse. It was really annoying.
very.
Fortunately, the nurse in the intensive care unit had a sedative on hand. With one injection, Zhou Baoyu finally calmed down.
In the morning, the strength of the medicine had passed, and Zhou Baoyu's mood had stabilized.
Originally, he could have stayed in the hospital for a few more days, but considering that he had no credit points to pay for, the brother actually quietly escaped from the hospital on his own.
Back at his residence, Zhou Baoyu cried again, then tidied up his messy hair and decided to accept the reality.
But just when he was about to go out to see if the factory had reopened, there was a knock on the door.
Zhou Baoyu was startled. He thought someone from the hospital was here again, so he covered his mouth and did not dare to breathe. But the stabbing he suffered was not an ordinary injury. After this fright, the wound split open.
He said that he was so weak that he almost fainted.
Fortunately, Zhou Baoyu held on, and the people outside the door thought that no one was in the house and left.
Hearing the sound of footsteps receding, Zhou Baoyu dared to cautiously stick to the window and look out. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly turned around and met Zhou Baoyu's eyes, looking at him squarely.
Zhou Baoyu was stunned at that time.
Then he hurriedly opened the door and shouted to the man: "Brother? What... are you not dead? You are really not dead!"
But the other party just smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
Zhou Baoyu looked at the weirdness and hurriedly chased after me and asked: "Hey! Cousin! Just wait for me! I am Baoyu! You and your cousin have raised Baoyu since childhood! Don't you know me?"
Zhou Baoyu's cousin Wu Yidong did not obey. He walked very fast, and Zhou Baoyu was panting after following him.
