Chapter 7 Chapter VII

After breakfast, Bai Yi called: "Xiao Gang, I'm going to study with you today, okay?" Xiao Gang said happily: "Of course. Are Martin and Feifei coming too?" There was a short pause on the screen, but Xiao Gang's eyesight was enough to see that Bai Yi's face turned red for a moment.Bai Yi said: "I haven't called them yet, should I call now?" Xiao Gang felt his face turn red for a millisecond: "No, you can do it by yourself. Let's get together tomorrow." Recently, he and Bai Yi always like to be alone together.He often feels sorry for Martin and Feifei.However, speaking from conscience, he still likes these two friends as much as before, and he is willing to be with them every day—but he also hopes to be alone with Bai Yi once in a while.Strictly speaking, doing this is indeed a bit "emphasizing sex over friends", so he often asks himself: I like Bai Yi because this girl is lively and cute, or because she is a lively and lovely girl.

There is no clear answer to this question so far. Bai Yi's thoughts coincided with his.She carried her schoolbag on her back and happily rode her bicycle to come.When she was approaching Zhu's house, she saw a high-end Audi passing her and driving past Zhu's courtyard.When she entered the room, there were three people sitting in the living room, introducing themselves.The Chinese man is Zhuang Yongwei, about 45 years old, of medium build, with a square face and serious eyes.The other man is American David, about 70 years old, with silver hair, reddish skin, thick hair on the back of his hands, blue eyes, and a hearty laugh.The third is a woman, Bai Yi originally thought she was Chinese, but only after hearing the introduction did she know that she is Japanese, her name is Nobuko Ogata.About thirty-seven or eighteen years old, with long black and shiny hair.She sat on the sofa, carefully tucking her beautiful legs under the long skirt.Xiaogang's mother brought three cups of Xinyang Maojian tea, arranged for Bai Yi to sit down too, and said to Xiaogang:

"Come on, you put on a show for Grandpa, Uncle and Auntie, show your best kung fu." It turned out that they also came to see Xiao Gang's martial arts, and Xiao Gang has really become an international celebrity.Bai Yi leaned into Xiao Gang's ear, and asked in a very soft voice: "Are you performing? Do you need to lie to them this time, like last time?" Xiao Gang said softly: "No need. Look at how straight the eyes of these three people are! How bright the smiles are! I have observed them, and they are good people. What do you think?" "I also think they are good people—but I also think that the three Japanese are good people."

Xiaogang's mother repeated: "Xiaogang, let's perform, and show your highest level." So Xiaogang stopped talking, held his breath, and soon entered a state of forgetting both things and me.These days, he has been able to jump in and out of the fast state and the slow state proficiently and easily, but since his mother has repeatedly confessed, he thinks he should be more cautious.After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and said, "Okay, let's get started, Grandpa, what do you need me to do?" With a mischievous smile on his face, the old American handed over a small pistol first.Very small, only half of Xiaogang's palm."It's a pocket-sized laser gun that sends out a laser pulse that lasts 1 millisecond by pressing the trigger. In this box are 100 Anopheles mosquitoes," he said, pushing through a small, thin metal wire woven into a cage.Bai Yi said curiously: "Mosquitoes? I haven't seen them since I was born. No wonder I heard a buzzing sound when I entered the room."

Now, the hum is clearer.The old man said: "Now I'm going to release the mosquitoes and see how many times you can shoot them all. The number of shots will be automatically recorded on the gun. Also, these mosquitoes are sterile, so it doesn't matter if you run a few." , you don't have to worry about that." Xiao Gang showed a disappointed expression: This exam is too easy.He said, "Okay." The old man opened the cage, and immediately 100 mosquitoes buzzed and flew away.Xiao Gang lightly activated the laser gun, and the laser beam danced in the room, accompanied by faint blue smoke.In a blink of an eye, a layer of dead mosquitoes fell on the floor of the house.The three guests were extremely excited and stared at Xiao Gang's movements intently.They couldn't actually see anything, because it seemed that Xiao Gang's fingers were barely moving.Suddenly, Xiaogang put down the laser gun, and his mother asked: "What's wrong with Xiaogang? The mosquitoes haven't been wiped out yet." Xiaogang said softly: "Mom, you said you would perform at my highest level, but...it's too simple .”

The old American said with great interest: "Then what do you want to do? Grab them with your hands, or prick them with needles?" "Use scissors." Xiaogang took an ordinary household scissors from the drawer and said, "I'm starting." I saw the figure shaking, and the scissors intertwined a white light in the room.A few seconds later, Xiao Gang said, "It's all over." Dozens of mosquitoes were clearly buzzing, and everyone looked at Xiao Gang strangely.Xiaogang stretched out his hand, pinched the wings of a mosquito, and said with a smile: "I've already cut off their long beaks, you see."

Mr. David took out a pair of magnifying glasses to examine carefully, and sure enough, the mosquito no longer had a beak.The three guests stared at Xiao Gang incredulously, and praised him in a low voice: "It's amazing, it's unbelievable! How did you do it?" Xiaogang said: "When we were young, we used to go to play with snails after the rain. We touched the snail's tentacles with our hands, and it retracted. After a while, it slowly stretched out." He looked at the three guests, "Now, It's easier for my nerves to cut off a mosquito's proboscis than to touch a snail's antennae."

There was another sound of admiration.Ogata Nobuko couldn't help but took Xiaogang into his arms and kissed his forehead.Mr. David announced: "It's amazing, I have only seen such stunts in the works of Mr. Jin Yong. I believe now," he said jokingly, "Mr. Jin Yong is not a martial arts author but a science fiction author. Among his Therefore, it is only because of the foresight of scientific progress in China 40 years later that I can write about the superb kung fu of heroes so vividly." When Xiao Gang and Bai Yi heard that Mr. David was also a fan of martial arts, they immediately felt closer to him. "Mr. David, do you also like to read martial arts novels?"

"Yes, it's a wonderful adult fairy tale, full of grandeur and unrestrained. But I'm even happier that the fairy tale has become a reality." That Mr. Zhuang has been filming these scenes.Now he plays the clip in slow motion.Mr. Zhuang told Xiaogang that this video recorder is specially made and can be played at a slow speed of 10,000 times.On the small screen of the camera, the mosquitoes can be seen lazily flapping their wings, and suddenly a silver-white scissors appears, and the scissors have cut off its long beak steadily at the moment when the mosquito has no time to escape.The three admired with satisfaction and put away their cameras.The American said to Xiaogang's mother: "Ms. Tong, we are satisfied, very satisfied. We also want to see the same amazing orangutan."

"Okay, I'll take you there." The three reluctantly bid farewell to Xiaogang, got in the car and left.After they left, Bai Yi asked, "What do these three people do?" "They said it was from the United Nations Committee on Small Objects. The full name is the United Nations Committee on Countermeasures against Small Objects in Abnormal Orbits." "Little Celestial Body?" Bai Yi thought about it, "Xiao Gang, I think you have already guessed the purpose of their visit." Xiao Gang nodded: "Yes, I guessed it, I don't know if it's right."

"I guessed it too." The two were silent for a moment, Xiao Gang got up and went to the computer, opened it, searched for a report from "Science and Technology Daily" 5 days ago, copied it, and handed it to Bai Yi.Bai Yi read carefully: After Bai Yi finished reading, Xiao Gang was told: "Scientists say that this comet is too 'fragmented', and it is difficult to change its orbit with a nuclear explosion." Bai Yi pondered and said, "Xiao Gang, I really envy you." "For...why?" "It goes without saying that these three people must have come to invite you to deal with Gordon's comet, and let you use your superhuman abilities to save mankind-this is too much, at least to save many lives. Are you really I'm going to become a hero of the world! Xiaogang, why didn't you call me when you secretly drank Shenli No. 1? Now, I am one step behind and I can't keep up. I will never be able to walk side by side with you The rivers and lakes are gone!" Although this is a joke, there is also a sense of regret in the joke.Xiaogang didn't know how to comfort her. After thinking about it, he said, "I don't know if this is the case. Besides, there are many things to do in the world. As long as Shenli No. 1 is produced, as long as you become harmonious after taking it." Like me, we will be able to do a lot of things and make a lot of contributions.” Bai Yi smiled: "Don't comfort me, I won't be sad, and I won't be jealous of you—the two Chinese characters 'jealousy' are really badly made, they have a masculine flavor, why use 'female' Next. But, when the second batch of Shenli No. 1 is produced, I must be the first to take it." Xiao Gang said: "Don't worry. My parents love you more than me. Although they never said it, I already knew it. They will definitely agree. If they don't agree, I will ..." He didn't think of an effective way to threaten his parents.Bai Yi said with a smile: "Shame on you! Go on a hunger strike!" "Yes, cheating, hunger strike. I don't eat, drink or sleep, so I have to force them to agree. If it doesn't work, I'll be a gentleman again!" At dinner, my parents came back at the same time, and did not mention the three guests.Xiao Gang also intentionally didn't ask. At the dinner table, he seemed to say unintentionally: "Dad, Mom, I read a report that Gordon's comet will attack the earth within three months." Mom and Dad looked at each other meaningfully, and said briefly: "That's just a preliminary calculation, and it may have passed tens of thousands of kilometers away from the earth." "Preliminary calculation? Can't the current computer calculate the precise trajectory of a comet in three months?" "Yes. It's not that the formulas of astrophysics are inaccurate, and it's not that the computer's ability is not powerful enough. This error is determined by chaos theory, and it depends on the extremely small error in the initial conditions. Let's put it this way, even if a fairly Simple Newtonian motion—the collision of three rigid bouncing balls on a rigid billiard table can only predict a limited number of steps by computational methods. Because as the motion continues, some initial conditions that seem to be completely negligible, such as a piece of Sweat stains, a breeze, a tiny bump, etc., all have a big impact on the trajectory of the pinball." Today's dinner is Nanyang's unique fragrant noodles. Xiaogang sipped Hulu and asked carefully: "Mom and Dad, when will Shenli No. 1 be produced?" "At least three months later. We have done our best." "You promised, after Shenli No. 1 is produced, test it on my friend first—at least let Bai Yi drink it first, she is the first to register." Dad looked at him sympathetically: "It may not be her turn, child, this is the treasure that the world needs urgently, how many people are waiting for it, today these three people are still urging..." He swallowed the last part of the sentence, " I have no right to make promises, boy." Xiao Gang became impatient, and entangled his mother like brown sugar: "Mom, you promised, you can't break your promise, and you can't let me break my promise in front of my friends!" Mom smiled and said, "When did I agree? I just said try to think about it." "Dad, Mom, promise me. Don't you want to give me some face? Can you do it?" He was thinking about whether to put out the threat of 'not eating, drinking or sleeping'. After thinking about it, he should not mention it for now. wonderful. "Promise. For example, if you plan to produce 100 bottles, you can add more raw materials and produce 101 bottles, 103 bottles?" My mother was tortured by him, so she had to discuss it with her husband: "Anyway, there is still a probationary period. Let's find a way to include Bai Yi in the first batch of probationary list." Xiaogang's father didn't object, she turned her head and said, " That's it - but remember, I can only do my best, and I can't promise you anything." Xiao Gang was already rejoicing: "Thank you Mom, and thank you Dad—but the degree of gratitude is slightly lighter. Dad is too stingy." Dad laughed: "This troublemaker!" Xiao Gang wiped his mouth with a napkin, ran out of the restaurant, picked up the phone, he wanted Bai Yi to hear the good news as soon as possible. "Bai Yi, my parents have agreed to let you be the first to drink Shenli No. 1!" "Great, thank you!" Xiaogang thought about it, and said apologetically, "My words are a bit bragging. My mother's original words are: try my best to put you in the first batch of trial candidates, but she can't guarantee it." "I know Auntie can do it, Xiaogang, I'm so happy." After hanging up the phone, he remembered Martin and Feifei.When he had time, he would torture his mother and ask her to include these two good friends in the list.He knew that he was too "excessive" in doing so, so he could only do so in moderation.If it doesn't work, let them go to the second batch.After all, Bai Yi was the first to register with him, and doing so by himself was not regarded as favoritism.Of course, deep down in his heart, he knew that his reasons were a bit forced, so he couldn't help but feel guilty towards Martin and Feifei. At 5 o'clock in the morning, Xiao Gang was soundly asleep when he was suddenly awakened by the sudden ringing of the phone.He is very sleepy, which shows that the phone has been ringing for a long time.He jumped out of bed and picked up the phone—no sound.It must be the videophone in the living room ringing.When he came to the living room, he saw that his father was wearing pajamas and had already picked up the phone. On the screen, Grandpa Ji, the administrator of Dugu Xingxing, was full of panic and said, "Boss, Xingxing is missing!" Xiao Gang was very shocked, as if his heart was burned by a red hot iron bar.Mom has dressed quickly, buttoned up her jacket and came to the living room.Lao Ji said in shame: "Boss, I fell asleep when I was on duty last night—but how could I fall asleep? I'm not confessing, I never blinked an eye every time I was on night shift. How could I lean against the cage yesterday? I’m asleep. Besides, even if I’m asleep, Xingxing can’t stretch out his arms through the two layers of cages, take out the key on my body, and open the cage door. Someone must have cast an anesthetic to numb me first, He also robbed the stars. He even kicked me on the waist, causing a big bruise. Damn it, this is a trick of the underworld!" Xiaogang's mother looked at her husband and comforted him: "Lao Ji, we know your work attitude. I also suspect that someone is causing trouble. Have you called the police?" "Not yet. I want you to know first." "I'll call the police right away, and then I'll go." Lao Ji disappeared from the screen, her husband was full of worry, and Tong Ming was also uneasy.They endowed this orangutan with powerful abilities far surpassing that of humans today.They are not without vigilance about this, but this vigilance is downplayed and covered up by "feeling for their children".Dugu Xingxing can be said to be their second son!Today, this question is suddenly and sharply in front of us. Zhu Yizhi smiled wryly and said: "For some reason, I suddenly remembered the legend of Wuzhiqi. Wuzhiqi is not a demon, but his actions are both good and evil. When Dayu controlled the water, he caused a lot of chaos. Our stars... ...where to find it?" "There is always a way. Although it moves erratically like a ghost, it must eat and rest. Besides, it has a lot of affection for us, and I think it's not hard to find. Let's go and get to the scene as soon as possible." "Walk." They heard Xiao Gang shouting: "Dad, Mom, I'm going too!" Seeing Xiao Gang by the door of the living room, the two said happily: "By the way, there is our Flash. Let's go, maybe you need to subdue Dugu Xingxing." The police had arrived at the institute before the three of them arrived, and a small man was questioning Lao Ji.He is Captain Ge of the criminal investigation team. He is in his 40s, thin and lean, with drooping eyebrows.There are two young men under him, one is a broad-shouldered young man named Hu, Lao Ge calls him Xiaohu, and the other girl calls him "Siberian Tiger" or "Big Tiger".The girl's surname is Wen, she looks like a tomboy, she speaks and walks vigorously. Xiao Wen had already turned on the computer in the house, knocked on it for a while, and said, "Captain Ge, someone entered the computer at ten past three, deciphered the password, and shut down the security system. So," she looked at the Zhu couple, " I'm afraid this is no ordinary thief." Lao Ge nodded: "It must be connected to the network from the cable in the basement. Xiaohu, go and have a look. Hey, continue talking." Lao Ji looked at the director with a face full of shame, and continued in a low voice: "Up until then, everything was normal. At about three o'clock, I seemed to hear noises in the orangutan's cage, so I came to check. I saw the floor inside the cage. There seems to be something green and shiny on the ground, and the orangutan is also looking at it curiously. However, it may be just an illusion before I lose consciousness, because when I wake up, the cage door is wide open, and the key on my waist is hanging on the cage door The orangutan was missing, but there was nothing shiny on the floor of the cage." Captain Ge got into the cage, asked Lao Ji to point out the direction, and searched carefully with a magnifying glass.After a few minutes, he raised his head and said, "I found it. There is a very faint stain here. It's in the right direction." He explained, "This is an ice bomb made of high-efficiency anesthetic. It came in from an open window. The ice bomb disappeared naturally after gasification, leaving only a very small amount of impurities. It seems that the first thing they want to anesthetize is the orangutan, and the second is the duty officer." He asked suspiciously: " Is that orangutan really amazing?" The female policeman said half seriously and half jokingly: "Professor Zhu, Professor Tong, you are not telling fairy tales, are you? An orangutan with amazing skills! That should be a children's story on the Internet." Xiaogang's father smiled wryly, without explaining, he turned to Xiaogang and said, "Xiaogang, come, grab the magnifying glass from Uncle Ge's hand." The two policemen looked at the father and son in puzzlement.Knowing his father's intentions, Xiaogang walked over and said with a smile, "Uncle Ge, I'm going to do it. Please hold the magnifying glass carefully, I'm going to do it." The two policemen watched with wide-eyed eyes, and suddenly the figure flickered—they didn't see how Xiao Gang moved at all, and the magnifying glass was firmly placed in Xiao Gang's hand.Captain Ge's expression changed slightly.He is confident that he is not a mediocre player, and has subdued many murderers in hand-to-hand combat.But the scene in front of him surprised him.Unconvinced, Xiao Wen laughed and teased: "Captain Ge, your old eyes are getting dizzy, come on, let me try." She held the magnifying glass in Xiaogang's hand and posed confidently.Xiao Gang smiled and shook his head: "Change the number this time, how about this, I'll take the hairpin off your head, okay? Please get ready, I'm going to do it." Xiao Wen stared at Xiao Gang's hands vigilantly—suddenly, the hairpin with red acacia beans lay in Xiao Gang's hands.There is no intermediate process, just like cutting a movie film for a minute, and then playing the two segments together.Captain Ge, Xiaowen and the big tiger who had just returned from the basement were dumbfounded.Although Xiaogang's father is worried, he is still very proud at the moment.He explained: "You don't have to doubt, this is neither magic nor witchcraft, this is science. Our research results can greatly improve the neural response speed of creatures, and the first batch of results are my son Xiaogang and the orangutan. Therefore," he He said heavily: "Please do your best to catch this little orangutan. This is not to say that it is a demon, it will kill and set fire to eat human flesh. No. It is a good boy, but a little naughty and a little controlling However, since its physical ability greatly exceeds its intelligence, once it starts to misbehave, it will bring a lot of trouble to the society." Captain Ge nodded: "We know, I will report to the superior immediately. Please rest assured, we will do our best." The big tiger said to Captain Ge: "The basement has been checked, and someone did sneak in there, but no fingerprints were left either." "Understood, let's go around and check again." They found a few shallow footprints around the premises, too vague to deduce the identity of the thieves.Only the footprints behind an elm tree are clearer.Judging from the location, this is where the thieves fired the narcotic bombs.Judging from the footprints, the criminal is male, under 1.70 meters in height, slightly thinner, and probably around 40 years old.At this time, Xiao Wen, who was inspecting the back wall, shouted: "Captain, come here!" Several people hurried over and saw a strange row of barefoot footprints leading to the back wall.Apparently it was the footprint of a chimpanzee.The soil here is very loose, so the footprints are relatively clear.However, only the prints of the front toes are left, so it can be deduced that the orangutan runs at a high speed.Xiaohu climbed up the back wall and looked out, and found a lock of black hair on the top of the wall. He pointed to the outside and said, "Look, there are two white clothes!" Several people walked around the wall.There is a white exercise uniform thrown here, which has been torn.Both Lao Ji and Zhu's couple recognized that these were the clothes that Xing Xing usually wore.There is also a row of footprints outside the wall, leading to the distance through the farmland.These footprints are standard chimpanzee footprints, thin and long, with separated five toes, walking at a fairly slow pace.There is no doubt that the orangutan escaped from here, and it seems to have escaped alone, and not with several criminals.Because the thieves must have left in a car, the police had found signs of parking outside the door.what the hell is it? Follow the footprint to the willow forest by the river and it disappears completely.With tears in his eyes, Xiaogang covered his mouth with his hands and shouted loudly: "Little Xingxing! Hero Dugu! It's me, I'm Zhu Xiaogang, and I'm your good friend. Come back soon!" The last sentence was already crying.But it was quiet in the willow forest, the morning mist filled the air, and the clear crowing of roosters could be heard in the distance. Captain Ge returned to the bureau with his men, and Xiaogang returned to the research institute sadly with his parents.As soon as I entered the room, I heard another administrator report: "Director, Professor Tong, watch TV quickly, something happened to the zoo!" The three hurried over.On the screen, a young male reporter said to the audience: "...I am now in Qilingang in the west of Nanyang City. Everyone knows that this is the hometown of Bailixi, the famous prime minister of Qin. Bailixi was built here ten years ago. Park, including a sizable zoo. But this morning an astonishing and ironic thing happened: all the animals escaped overnight! Look." The camera panned to behind him, and two pandas walked leisurely along the road in the park. More than a dozen old people who got up early and exercised crowded on both sides of the road to watch.An old lady handed her breakfast, the panda sniffed it and shook her head politely.Another white-haired old man brought a bunch of young bamboo leaves from nowhere, shouted to get out of the way, and squeezed over from behind the crowd.The two pandas happily accepted the gift, sat down on the ground, hugged the tender bamboo leaves with their forelimbs, and ate gracefully, while watching the crowd curiously.The two children boldly walked over and stroked the panda's back, and the panda let them caress meekly.The people around are giggling. The reporter said with a smile: "These two giant pandas are bred by cloning technology, and they are the pets of all Nanyang people. Looking at the happy scene in front of me, I think we should release all animals from their cages. However, they are not Not all scenes are so happy. See." The camera waddled along with him.In front is the waterfowl garden, which is also wide open.Several cranes paced leisurely outside the door.There is a dome-shaped wire roof above the waterfowl garden, and now dozens of wild ducks fly out, perch on the dome, and clamor toward the south.There's no one here, obviously the administrator doesn't care about it yet.The camera moves forward, and there is a...huge boa constrictor hanging on a weeping willow by the river!It lay there lazily, with no intention of running away.Under the tree are five administrators, two of them are holding a sack, and they are slowly pushing over, holding the python's neck with two forks.The fifth person commanded from the side: "Slow down, be careful, go up a little bit!" Mr. Nala Boa constrictor looked at them impatiently, shook his head slightly, and the two administrators who made the fork were thrown into the river.This scene was so funny that Xiao Gang laughed out loud.But he immediately realized that now is not the time to laugh, so he quickly stopped laughing. Camera pans away.Monkeys are jumping on the trees, pangolins are crawling in the crevices of the rockery, and a black bear is sitting on the stone steps in a daze.Peacocks stroll on the grass, like a graceful lady.The well-informed tourists flocked here, giggling and giggling like a festival, following behind all kinds of wild animals, forgetting even the danger.At this time, a team of armed police ran over and immediately dispersed in a well-trained manner, pulling up a series of warning lines in the park to push the tourists out of the safety line.The python finally gave in, and the four of them carried the sack and headed towards the reptile hall.The reporter stopped the conductor: "Mr. Liu, as the director of the park management committee, can you explain to the audience what happened today?" Director Liu obviously didn't want to show his face at this embarrassing moment, but he couldn't evade it, so he stood still and reluctantly replied: "The reason is under investigation, and we will announce it to the press as soon as possible." "With such a big mistake, don't you think the park's security work is too negligent?" The director smiled wryly and said: "I know it's useless to try to justify at this moment. But to be honest, our security measures are very strict. Every night there are special personnel to check the door locks everywhere, and there are night watchmen and night patrols. ..." "Night watchmen and patrols? Are they all drunk or asleep? You know this is not the loss of individual animals, but all animals in the park." Director Liu said with a cold face: "I can guarantee on my personality that my staff is neither drunk nor asleep. In fact, all the staff on duty reported that they found abnormalities at 3:23-25. It seems that there are A black shadow quickly appeared at each cage door, and then the animals were alarmed and driven out of the cage door. Then the caretakers found that the keys they were wearing or hanging on the wall had been lost." "I think, it must be a ghost. Or the bandit handsome Chu Liuxiang described by Gu Long? No, Chu Liuxiang doesn't have such great supernatural powers." Director Liu finally couldn't help it, and said angrily: "Young man, it's easy to say a few witty words, but I hope you investigate the actual situation before speaking. What I just said is all the truth, without any exaggeration. Why is that so?—I don't know. I'm anxious to unravel that mystery now. So excuse me, and you may practice your eloquence in front of the camera." He stormed off, leaving the interviewer embarrassed.He said mockingly to the camera: "Maybe I wronged him, maybe this black ghost really exists. We will tell the audience as soon as the investigation has results." Parents couldn't help holding Xiaogang's hand: there is no doubt that this black ghost must be Little Xingxing.After it escaped from restraint, it rushed to the zoo non-stop, and released all the prisoners of the same kind - it is obviously inappropriate to say "the same kind".How can chimpanzees be the same as pythons, pangolins and swans?Perhaps, Dugu Xingxing already has the concepts of "human beings" and "beasts" in his mind, and he regards himself as the savior of beasts. This really makes people feel uneasy.Have the stars set themselves against human beings? Scenes of capturing animals are still being shown on TV.This is in a middle school, in the flower bed facing the gate, there is a leopard!It paced back and forth in the flower bed, wagging its tail, and looked at the black crowed audience with slightly tired eyes, just like a star treats his groupies.And, this time, the groupies were huge: the morning classes were all attracted here.They were so happy that they didn't know how high or low they were, and they kept embracing each other.More than a dozen armed policemen were pale and pushed back hard, their voices were hoarse.Many timid girls in the audience hid their heads behind the boy's back and stared greedily with half of their eyes exposed.The leopard roared, and when the audience was neutral, there was a burst of screams of "Oh my God", and most of them were girls' voices.But fear is nothing but fear, they will never take half a step back from here. Inside the cordon of the armed police was a middle-aged man who was obviously the leopard's caretaker.He didn't dare to get too close to the leopard, holding a piece of raw meat in his hand, and yelled pitifully: "Piebald! Piebald! Come back with me, be obedient, ah?" It seems that if he knelt down and kowtowed And if Huabao would go with him, he would never hesitate.The reporter at the scene was a girl about 20 years old, so tender that she could pinch water.Her explanation was full of tension and inexplicable excitement.She said that the leopard was captured from the Baotianman Nature Reserve in the city. It was only two months old when it was captured, and it is now four years old.She said that the audience should rest assured that leopards raised in zoos are generally harmless, and the guns of the armed police are loaded with rubber bullets, and they will only be used in unavoidable situations. "Now, they are discussing how to capture the leopard alive. There will be a result soon. Let us wait patiently." Someone threw a live chicken from behind, with its legs tied and its wings fluttering on the ground.The man shouted from behind the crowd: "Master, use this live chicken to lure it, it may work!" The administrator said gratefully: "Thank you very much." He picked up the live chicken and threw it over carefully.The big white rooster immediately felt the danger: the guy in front of him with piebald eyes and green eyes, isn't he the chicken-eating demon mentioned in the ancient saying of ancestors?The brave rooster does not want to die in vain, it will make a last-ditch effort!It struggled to stand up, jumping with its legs together, its neck feathers flaring, and it screamed viciously.Leopard shrugged, staring at the breakfast delivered to his mouth.It's about to pounce, it's about to get bloody here.The kind-hearted girls had already covered their eyes.Suddenly——this ending was unexpected by no one.The leopard suddenly turned around in front of the aggressive rooster, fled, and fled into the depths of the garden, not daring to show its head again. The students laughed happily, and the girls who covered their eyes hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? What's the matter?" The administrator also became more courageous, seized this opportunity and rushed over, putting the leather ring around the leopard's neck .Then, he pulled the leopard away from the flower bed triumphantly, walked out of the school in the corridor formed by the students, and boarded the animal transport vehicle sent by the park, and the leopard followed him obediently. Xiao Gang breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that today is the school study day, it is already too late now.However, Dugu Xingxing's whereabouts are unknown, how could he leave here?Tong Ming saw his son's thoughts and persuaded him: "Xiao Gang, you can go. I will notify you as soon as Xing Xing is missing. Don't worry, Xing Xing is a good boy. He will never... I don't think he will come back the fat is in the fire." Xiaogang reluctantly agreed and was about to leave.Suddenly the phone rang again abruptly.Xiao Gang rushed over to grab the receiver, it was Bai Yi's mother, Aunt Gu.Aunt Gu burst into tears and said in panic, "Xiao Gang, Bai Yi has been kidnapped!" Xiao Gang's head swelled with a buzz: "Bai Yi was kidnapped? By whom?" "Backed by a chimpanzee! It must be the Dugu Xingxing you mentioned!" Xiaogang's father has already grabbed the microphone: "You are Bai Yi's mother, don't worry, don't worry. Tell me slowly, how did Bai Yi get kidnapped?" Bai Yi’s mother’s tears were like a river breaking its embankment: “We heard shouts in Bai Yi’s room at about 4 o’clock in the morning, as if she was shouting: Who is it? What are you doing? We got up quickly and pushed her room away. We opened the door and saw a very ugly chimpanzee standing beside the bed, and Bai Yi was lying half up on the bed. We were terrified at that time, we screamed, and saw a black shadow flashing in front of us, and the orangutan and Bai Yi disappeared at the same time, turning into one The light shot out from the window! If I hadn’t heard Bai Yi boasting about the ability of this beast, I must have thought that I had encountered a monster! Mr. Zhu, what do you think should I do? It’s the super orangutan you cultivated. You must Find a way. If Bai Yi has any good or bad, I... will never end with you!" Professor Zhu said hoarsely: "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way. Have you called the police?" "Reported. Just after the police left, I suddenly thought that the orangutan belongs to you and should be given to you..." "Yes, I see. Don't worry. This orangutan already has the intelligence of a 5-year-old child. It won't do anything wrong. We must find it as soon as possible." He put down the phone and smiled wryly at his wife.Looking back, Xiaogang was already in tears: "Dad, why did the orangutan kidnap Bai Yi? I know it likes Bai Yi the most, and they are best friends. Then why does it kidnap Bai Yi?" Xiaogang's parents avoided his questioning, their hearts were heavy and they couldn't answer.Until now, they hadn't been too worried about the escape of the stars.The star has spent 6 years here, and its temperament has been familiar.They have known for a long time that the star does not want to be imprisoned, does not want to wear chains every day, it yearns for a free life.So it escaped, first from its cage and then from the grip of the mysterious thief.These actions are understandable.They don't believe it can do anything outrageous. But now, that belief has been shaken.Dugu Xingxing is 12 years old and a mature male chimpanzee.Judging from the contact these days, it has a special affection for Bai Yi.If...then they will die without shirking the blame!These words could not be explained to Xiao Gang, and the two could only smile wryly at each other. A Wuzhiqi with boundless magic power has broken free from the chain, how to catch him now? Xiaogang's father stopped talking about letting Xiaogang go to school.He anxiously contacted the Public Security Bureau, discussed with his wife how to deal with Xing Xing, and had to deal with Bai Yi's mother's crying from time to time.Ma Tian and Fei Fei also came, their faces were full of anxiety, and Fei Fei's eyes were even redder.They wanted to seek some good news here, but seeing that Xiao Gang and his parents were worried, they shut their mouths knowingly and stayed with Xiao Gang silently.林达爷爷也赶到试验室，他和孩子们草草打个招唿，便到里间和朱教授商量着什么。半个小时后，林爷爷出来，向孩子们走来。马田忽然坚决地说： “林爷爷，我坚决不相信！” “不相信什么？” “不相信星星会干坏事！” 林爷爷点点头：“对，它不会干坏事的。它已经是个多少懂事的小男孩了。我担心这中间有坏人在作祟。请你们回想一下，这些天来，你们遇到过什么可疑的人吗？” 这句话使孩子们猛然醒悟，几乎异口同声地说：“三个日本人！” “什么'三个日本人'？” 小刚追悔无及地说：“林爷爷，我们早该想到的呀。但是今天出事太突然，我们心都乱了。几天前……是七天前吧，有三个日本人让我表演绝技……” 马田抢着说：“小刚当时就看出他们眼睛深处有阴光，所以装得笨手笨脚地骗过他们。是一个老头，一个女人，一个哑巴。” 肥肥也抢着说：“他们还向我妈打听了好多小刚和星星的事——我妈是在'水一方'宾馆当服务员。我最了解我妈那张嘴啦，她一听说日本人怀疑小刚和星星的本事，就热心地为他们辩解。结果什么底儿全露出去了！”她脸红红地补充，“也怪我，我把所有情况都给妈妈说了。我那时太兴奋，再说，没想到要向自己的妈妈保密呀。” 林爷爷和小刚爸交换着眼光。林爷爷说：“谢谢你们，你们提供的情况太重要了。” 三个猴崽子难为情地咕哝：“谢什么呀，我们早该想到的。” 林达说：“这个情报太重要了，马上向公安局报告。” 仍是葛队长接的电话。葛队长非常重视，又把小刚三人叫到电话机前祥细询问一番。他问了三个人的长相和穿戴，又问肥肥，她妈妈今天是否上班。临了他说：“孩子们，谢谢你们。如果这件案子侦破，你们是第一个功劳。现在我要到'水一方'宾馆去，再见。” 葛队长从屏幕上隐去了，童明把三人领到一个小房间去，说你们在这儿玩吧，不要走远，也可能葛队长还要问什么情况。你们给学校请假了吗？我替你们请吧。说完关门离去。 三个朋友这会儿比刚才更担心——现在他们担心的不光是一个智商偏低、行事任性的小星星，更有三个幽灵邪魔似的日本人！马田坚决地说：“星星决不会为他们干坏事！你说呢，肥肥？” 肥肥看看小刚，低声说：“我相信——可是，坏人们有很多坏办法呢。比如，万一他们也给星星服用什么豹胎易筋丸，什么腐骨烂肌丸，让星星受他们挟制呢。” 马田想想，觉得无法驳倒。“你说得也对，要不，它为什么把白易绑架走呀，一定是三个坏蛋逼它干的。” “可是，他们绑架白易干什么？” 马田说：“那还用说，一定是想用白易来威胁小刚。他们原来想骗小刚给他们当杀手，可是小刚一眼就把他们看透了，不上当。再说，小刚武功高强，他们又制服不了。所以，他们就从白易那儿下手。这在江湖上是常有的下三滥诡计。小刚，我说的对不？” 这套分析把小刚弄得心里沉甸甸的。当然他决不会受三个坏蛋的摆布，可是，万一他们拿白易来威胁呢？万一送来一封“不听话就割耳朵”的威胁呢。小刚恨恨地说：“他们只要敢动白易一根汗毛，我发誓一定要……为白易报仇！” “对，不能饶他们！” 一天在焦虑中度过。葛队长打过一个电话，说三个日本人已经失踪，海关没有他们离境的纪录。他们在“水一方”住宿时用的证件是伪造的。现在警方根据孩子们的描述，用电脑绘出了三个罪犯的模拟像，请孩子们确认。三张肖像通过电脑传来，三个孩子们认真评点着：这个老头的脸应该长一点，颧骨再高一点。那个女人的脸应该圆一点，等等。有些细节他们也顶不真了，争来争去只好存疑。好在对那个日本老头的肖像，意见基本一致。葛队长说：“我马上把肖像传真到日本警方。谢谢你们。” 葛队长这边刚把肖像传走，就接到了局长的电话，说桐柏县也发现了情况，随即把刚才桐柏公安局的录像电话转过来。打电话的是一个50多岁的老公安，满脸皱纹，神情紧张，用桐柏土话夹七夹八地说：“局长，太白顶发现了你们通辑的猩猩！接到报告后我立即赶去落实，亲眼看见了。群众不相信这是什么猩猩，他们咬死说这是传说中的夜叉。局长，我老铁头干了30年公安，从来不信神不信鬼，可这一回我差点就信了！那家伙个头长相倒真是一头猩猩，浑身黑毛，丑得不敢拿眼看。背上背着一个小女孩，只穿着小衣服，短裤头，皮肤雪白。小丫头的模样我没看清，听老乡说长得极俊，观音菩萨手下的金童玉女似的。哎哟，现在想起来心里还发憷，一个是白得耀眼的女孩，一个是丑得吓人的黑夜叉，这对比太强烈了！……我说远了。当时这黑家伙和小女孩藏在一处松林中，我们悄悄包抄过去，让黑家伙察觉了。我的天，它抱着女孩象股黑烟一样就失踪了。局长，我绝不是夸张，那个快劲儿呀，别说当时不敢开枪，就是开枪也打不着。真的象鬼魅一样！” 录音播完，葛队长插话：“听见女孩的哭声了吗？” "No." “那，女孩是否在昏迷中，或者已经死亡？” “没看清。我说过，它的行动太快了。不过听老乡说，女孩没昏迷也没死，眼睛还在骨碌碌乱转呢。不过他们说的是否可靠，我不敢打保票。” 老铁还在不住口地赞叹猩猩的轻功。葛队长看过小刚的表演，对此倒是没有惊奇。他说：“局长，快派一架直升机，我马上赶去。我想带上朱教授和小刚。” “对，带上他们。直升机马上就到。” 等赶到南阳东南120公里的桐柏，已是夕阳如血。直升机上本来没有菲菲和马田的位置，但他们死乞白赖地跟来了。直升机直接降落在大复山的主峰太白顶上，老铁和本地一位姓王的乡干部在卧虎石边等着他们。站在主峰放眼望去，周围层峦叠幛，奇峰刺天。夕阳慢慢沉落下去，一线红云凝滞在山上。山下苍翠葱笼，绿荫中浮出一处处殿宇，这就是有名的云台禅寺。山风从谷中卷上来，云海在足下翻腾。这儿的风景美极了，纵然来人个个心急如焚，但看到这洞天胜景，仍不免眼前一亮。 姓王的乡干部还领他们看了一个石砌的小井。小井绿苔斑驳，石块上绳痕犹然，向井下望去，水面幽暗，笼罩着久远的气息。旁边立着一块巨碑，上书两个大字：淮源。老王说，这就是千里淮河的源头。传说大禹治水时降服了一个神通广大的白猿精叫无支祁，用铁链锁在这口井里。数千年来，每逢月圆之夜，夜深人静，还能听到它拉动锁链的豁朗声里。老王又补充道：这只是传说，反正我从来没有听见过。 小刚爸看看妻子，神色十分沉重。也许这不是一个好兆头。他曾把独孤星星比作亦正亦邪的无支祁，没想到正好来到锁镇无支祁的淮井！葛队长说：“说正事吧，这会儿那头猩猩在哪儿？” 老铁领他们到太白顶的西边，指着一道幽深的山谷说，极有可能在这儿。有老乡见它窜进去就没出来。这道峡谷叫桃花谷，山桃遍地，古来就有白猿盗果的传说。这道山溪叫桃花溪，出谷后称澧水，是汉水的支流，所以太白顶是淮汉两水的分水岭。说远了，还说这山谷吧。这里深邃虚阔，山崖壁立，崖壁上有许多大小岩洞，即使本地人也没有全进去过。估计猩猩很可能藏在里面。 葛队长和武警部队的上尉沉吟着，面有难色。要想彻底搜查这道山谷，至少得200人。人手倒好办，关键是时间。天色已黑，等把人马召集齐就更晚了。葛队长过来同朱教授商量：“要不，先派人守住谷口，明天天亮再搜山？” 朱教授想想，艰难地说：“还是……现在就搜吧。用直升机把它惊出来，即使让它逃走也在所不惜。否则……” 葛队长知道他是担心白易的安危，便点头同意。他喊过直升机驾驶员开始交待。驾驶员对夜间搜山也没有把握，众人认真地讨论着搜山的具体办法。不过，这个难题意外地解决了。山下有两人急急地跑过来，老远就用土话嚷嚷着，其中一人是乡政府的老刘，他激动地说：“找到了！找到了！”他身后跟着一个笑嘻嘻的山民，高个子，手中拎把柴刀。山民说，今天早上他和老婆还在睡露水觉，忽然被惊醒了。从窗外跳进来一头黑猴，丑得吓人，大嘴岔子，嘴巴撅着，动作快得象鬼魂。我俩惊呆了，还没喊出声，那黑东西揽过我们的衣服，一眨眼就不见了。山民嘿嘿地说： “老婆胆小，说这是夜叉什么的。我说，21世纪了你还迷信？我这人是晕胆大，拎把柴刀追出去。我想你就是夜叉我也要见识见识。外面天色还早，灰苍苍的，没我找了一阵没找到，也就算了。到今天下午，听乡干部说它抢了一个小姑娘，于是晚饭后我又去找。找到一个僻静的山凹里，忽然听到女孩的笑声……” 小刚爸插问道：“笑声？是笑声还是哭声？” 山民挠挠头，肯定地说：“是笑声。笑得又脆又亮。那是在一片杂木林中。我悄悄摸过去，见那头黑家伙和那个女孩蹲在一棵大柿树上，不过已经不笑了，两人好象在过招。” “过什么招？” 山民比划着说：“就这么着，两手在眼前晃来晃去的。女孩动了几招，黑家伙再应几招。这时候飞机来了，轰轰隆隆的。于是俩人——不，是一人和一头猩猩——不打了，侧着耳朵听天上的声音。我想冲过去，又怕伤了那女孩儿。后来我就溜出来向乡政府报告，老刘就把我领这儿了。” 葛队长问：“那儿离这儿有多远？” “不远，也就五六里吧。” 众人都觉得这是好机会，便不再耽误，让直升机暂留原地待命，其余人跟着那个山民出发。朱教授掏出试验室那把激光枪交给小刚，郑重地说：“小刚，全靠你了。现在正是你的用武之地，一定要把白易救出来！” 小刚看看朋友们，他们正殷切地看着自己。他肃穆地说：“放心吧！” 葛队长想让马田和肥肥留在原处，说夜里走山路很危险的。马田和肥肥几乎哭出来：“叔叔，让我们去吧。保证不误事，行吗？我们和白易是好朋友，和星星也是好朋友，说不定还能劝它投诚呢。” 葛队长磨不过他们，只好答应了。一行人不敢使用手电，在朦胧的月色下摸索着前进。半个小时后他们赶到那片杂木林，队伍悄无声息地散开，把树林包围起来。上尉严令：不得命令绝不能开枪，一定要保证人质的安全！然后悄悄向林中摸去。他们果然听见了白易的笑声，笑得通天彻地的。朱教授一方面放心了——至少白易还活着；另一方面又十分忧心——莫非白易得失心疯了？要不，在这种场合下她还能笑得出来？ 一行人静悄悄地、迅速地逼近那棵巨大的柿子树。白易！她骑在一棵树叉上，正在快速地和猩猩“过招”——那当然不是什么过招，而是在打哑语。队伍慢慢逼近，看得更清楚了。白易身上穿着肥大的男人衣服，一定是那个山民的吧。袖管和裤腿卷得很高，露出白晰的手脖和脚脖。这时猩猩已经发现了来人，它狂怒地咆哮一声，立即把白易夹在左臂弯里转身欲逃。这些动作对别人来说只是一道幻影，但小刚早已敏捷地作出反应。他大喝一声：“星星不要逃！”随即点动激光枪，在星星周围组成一片光的囚笼。星星吃惊地站住。它从对方的身手中知道是小刚来了，是那个比自己更厉害的、刮过自己鼻子的小刚，它对小刚是俯首帖耳的。 它迟疑地立在原地。十几道手电光圈住它，现在大家都看清了这家伙的尊容，确实够丑的。穿着又肥又大的黑色长裤，很窄很小的女式月白上衣，敞着胸，露出黑漆漆的毛发。嘴上鲜血淋漓，一双小眼睛紧盯着小刚。看到它嘴巴上的血迹，树下的人都觉得头皮发紧——不过这显然不是白易的鲜血，因为眼前的白易安然无羔。白易被挟在它的腋下，努力昂着脑袋向树下看，忽然她高声喊：“是朱伯伯和小刚吗？千万不要开枪！” 朱教授大声说：“白易，你还好吗？告诉猩猩，让它把你放下，乖乖跟我们回去，我们不会伤害它的！” 小刚也大声喊：“白易你告诉它，有我在这儿，它跑不掉的！” 白易从它腋下挣脱，立在树叉上，热烈地比划着。猩猩看来听懂了，挟起白易慢慢爬下树。几只枪口，包括小刚的激光枪口，始终警惕地指着它。猩猩慢慢向小刚靠近，忽然把白易向小刚平抛过来。小刚的第一个反应是伸手接住白易，被白易的冲劲儿冲得后退几步，跌倒在地。眼见那边黑影一晃，猩猩窜高伏低地逃走了。小刚推开白易，举起激光枪，但白易一直紧紧搂住他的脖子，格格笑着，满嘴也是鲜血淋漓。这当儿小刚忽然生出一个可怕的念头，白易莫非中了妖术，变成一个吃生肉喝鲜血的巫婆了？他从脖子上拉掉白易的胳膊，直着嗓子问： “白易你怎么啦？你疯了吗？”白易这才抽出空儿望望后边：“星星逃走了吗？好极了，星星逃走了。”她看见朱伯伯和警察、朋友们都在看着她，忙害羞地从小刚身上爬起来，揩揩嘴巴。
