Chapter 172 Convergence

At that time, I was a little confused about the fact that the second senior brother accepted the gold. Boss Huang was obviously a ruthless person. If he let Boss Huang live one more day, it would be equivalent to committing one more day of sin. But why did the senior brother help him borrow life?

I saw him make a straw man for his life, and asked Boss Huang to prepare a thousand gold ingots to burn to buy life. He drew a life-borrowing spell on the straw man and borrowed ten years from the next life. If there are elderly people at home, you can ask. When China was hot in the 1970s and 1980s, the phenomenon of borrowing life was very common. Although it was uneven, there were many masters lying among the people. For example, if you borrowed a certain number of years of life, you would fall asleep for a while, and then dream that you went to the underworld, passed through the Yama Palace, and bought a few years with gold and silver. Finally, the underworld will tell you that you died at a certain time in a certain year.

However, all the longevity buyers are strictly required not to say anything, but they have one thing in common. You can ask around. Some old people will inform their children in advance that they will die in a certain year or month. Some will give strong hints to their family members. Seeing that you don't understand, they can make the old people blush. In this case, most of the people who borrowed the longevity know that their time is coming.

Only three of us hosted this event that day. After the ceremony, Mr. Huang fainted. I told Mao Shi about my doubts. Unexpectedly, he sighed and said, "Brother, the world has changed. If I don't help him borrow the longevity, he will force us to increase his longevity. You and I are mortals. If I didn't agree to him at that time, Mr. Huang would take out a gun and tie us up. At that time, we would be passive. I took his money to reassure him, not to mention... "He paused and said, "I lent him an evil longevity, a ten-year extension of life. I'm afraid that by then he will feel that he might as well be dead."

This ginger is still spicy with age! I only thought about Mr. Huang's bad behavior, but I didn't expect that people's life spans can also be divided into good and bad life spans. And the most important point is that no matter whether it is my talisman or the tiger, if the other party points a gun at me at such a close distance, I will have no way to deal with it. In the end, if we are tied up, we will really become crabs with legs cut off, and we will not be able to run rampant for long.

Mr. Huang slept for a full four hours. When he woke up, he seemed to be a different person to us. His face was pale with fear. After dinner in the evening, I asked Mr. Huang: "Brother Huang, how long does it take to get to Hongjunli from here?"

"Master, I will find a boat to take you there in the middle of the night. Stay overnight at a local family. The next day, you will take the truck that delivers food to Hongjunli and arrive at noon." He said respectfully.

I am a little worried about safety. After all, this is crossing the border, but he is full of guarantees, saying that if there are not a thousand people who have passed through his hands this year, there are at least 800 people. When there is a famine, more than 300 people will smuggle in a month.

In fact, the story of smuggling between China and North Korea has been circulating from ancient times to the present. For example, on the Tumen River, from North Korea to China, as long as you cross the knee-deep river, you can reach the Heilongjiang River. In winter, when the Yalu River is frozen, there are endless smugglers. Former US President Clinton once went to North Korea to pick up a female reporter. This female reporter was caught by the North Korean border guards when the Yalu River was frozen in winter for filming North Koreans smuggling to China! According to her recollection, many North Koreans took advantage of the Yalu River to skate across the river at night and came to China, and were contacted and settled by the Korean people on the Chinese side. The famine in North Korea is known to the whole world. China has to provide a lot of food to North Korea every year. Under the high-pressure politics and hungry environment of North Korea, it is normal for a few North Koreans to smuggle across the border. It's just that the North Korean government and army punish smugglers very severely! Often send agents to China to assassinate smugglers! Moreover, asking the Chinese government to repatriate smugglers is one of the reasons why North Korea is dissatisfied with China! Let's not talk about these countries first. After helping Mr. Huang, the local snake, to borrow birthday gifts, our embarrassing journey was over. After eating and drinking, we took a boat to Huishan City in the middle of the night. He was afraid that we couldn't communicate in the language, so he arranged a guide for us.

After staying at a local's house, I found that it was very similar to China in the 1970s seen in current film and television materials. Since it was already November, the climate in North Korea was very similar to that in Northeast China, both of which were relatively cold.

Early the next morning, the guide took us on a truck produced by Jilin FAW and headed straight to Hongjunli. On the way, Mao Shi also called Xing Zhan to get in touch, thus finally ending our career of leaving the team.

We met opposite the elementary school in Hongjunli. Fatty He, wearing a local casual outfit and a pair of black-framed glasses, looked at me with a smile and said, "You two are really wild. You have been away from the team for so long. If you go out to fight, you two will be shot."

"Old He, what's the situation now? Why did the base run so far away!" I asked in surprise.

Professor He pointed to a Santana not far away. We said goodbye to the guide and got into Professor He's car. Sitting in the car, Mao Shi also asked: "What happened? Why did you choose to come here?"

Professor He sighed and said: "It snowed heavily when we entered the mountain. Master Yuan led people to find a cave to avoid the snow. Inside, we actually found clues left by our researchers and the location of the base. The clues above meant that after reviving the dragon, they closed the laboratory and returned to China. On the way, they encountered snipers. In order to let the dragon return to China, everyone chose to act separately. The purpose of doing so was to protect your grandfather so that he could return smoothly. Fortunately, your grandfather returned to China safely. So everyone misunderstood Li Xiaozhang from the beginning, but he has not contacted the top for so long. We are a little suspicious whether he has also met with an accident."

"You fart!" I pushed Professor He hard.

He immediately advised me to calm down and said, "We are just guessing, don't get excited."

"How could my grandfather die? Don't talk nonsense!" I know his guess is logical, but I can't accept this reality. If he died, I would have no relatives in this world!

"OK, calm down." Professor He didn't argue with me. Instead, he handed me a cigarette and then chatted with Mao Shi.

I lowered my head for a long time, took out my mobile phone and sent a text message to my grandfather. I didn't dare to call because I was afraid that the phone prompt would not be connected. I sent a text message. If he didn't see it today, maybe he would see it tomorrow.

I rubbed my face, took a long breath and said, "I'm sorry, Lao He, I was a little excited just now."

"It's okay, young people, the sun at ** o'clock should be energetic and vigorous, just like I was excited when I was young." Lao He said indifferently.

I asked him why the base was chosen to be in North Korea, and whether he had figured out who was hunting down my grandfather and the researchers. Unfortunately, their information was not very comprehensive.

But Professor He told me the reason for the choice. He said that Yuan Beitang analyzed for them that after Japan annexed South Korea, iron stakes were driven into various parts of North Korea to cut off the dragon veins of North Korea. The Jiujue School used the Seven Wonders Golden Coffin Needle to break the White Jade Dragon Locking Pillar, dyeing the top of the Taibai Mountain red. Taibai Mountain is also the White Jade Mountain of North Korea, the birthplace of the dragon veins, and is called the White Jade Dragon Locking Pillar by the Jiujue School. Even now, there is a piece of red granite on the north slope of Taibai Mountain in North Korea.

The place we were going to was a Feng Shui treasure land along the dragon vein of North Korea, which was located downstream of the Tuman River. The most important point was that the dragon vein here was nailed to death. I later learned why we didn't choose China. It turned out that the treatment of the real dragon required the nourishment of the earth's energy. If it was placed in China, it would absorb the earth's energy of the country, which would affect the national destiny. So I was relieved to see that the motherland was so rogue.

The address of this base was chosen at the foot of a mountain range between Beidachuan and Hongjunli.

Thinking that someone was chasing my grandfather and that some scientific researchers had become mummies and died, the sawdust on their necks suddenly reminded me of the demon. Could he have done these things?

"By the way, Lao He, I saw the Japanese in Jilin." I said.

"Why didn't I know!" Mao Shi asked in surprise.

I said that there was nothing to do at that time, so I didn't tell him. I told him about the demon of the Jiujiu School and his bronze corpse. Mao Shi analyzed it for me and it was very likely that the man was one of the killers sent here!

My heart was in my throat, and I urged Professor He, "Hurry up and go to the base. If it doesn't work, let's go back quickly. I think Grandpa must have had a problem somewhere in the country."

The people of the Jiuju faction are extremely vicious. They don't get up early without profit. I absolutely don't believe that they would go to Jilin for no reason! Professor He drove us to the foot of the mountains. It was so blatant. If you say that the North Korean government doesn't know about this, I won't believe it.

The whole street is full of bicycles and transportation. Everyone is dressed similarly. Although there are occasionally a few fashionable young people, they are rare. I also need to popularize knowledge. North Korea has no Internet. Their Internet can only browse domestic websites. They can't watch Japanese anime, international news, or even porn. I heard that it seems to be better in recent years. What exactly is it like? I haven't been there for so many years. To be honest, it's too clear.

After arriving at Hongjunli and going up the mountain road, we finally arrived at a mountain cave. This time, all the people from Sanmen were there. The Yin-Yang Taoist nodded to Mao Shi to show his friendliness, while most of the others were busy with their own business and didn't look at each other.

I looked around and saw a bare mountain in front of me. We were at the foot of the mountain, and there was no door in front of us. There were also several people wearing local military uniforms not far away. Professor He said that they found the contact person here based on this clue, otherwise they would not be able to find this research institute even if they died of exhaustion. The condition offered here at that time was technology sharing, so that North Korean scientists could also participate in the research, and the research here was top secret.

Yuan Beitang walked towards me, frowning and saying, "It's confirmed. The door is right in front of us. You can see it, too. The bare mountains around us make it clear. We've been looking for four days without any clues. You're also a Feng Shui expert, so this place might have been arranged by your grandfather. See if there's any place you're familiar with." He looked around and whispered, "If we can find the door, we can open it and scare those Koreans. They don't know that the dragon has been resurrected, so we secretly dumped them and destroyed the information in advance."
