There was no road on the top of the mountain, and the car was bouncing violently. The more I went up, the more strange rocks there were. I stopped the car and walked up. Not long after, I saw that relatively square big rock—this time I really saw it, but Looking around, I was about to call out loudly when I suddenly saw that huge rock weighing at least 20 tons lifted up. For a moment, I even thought I was dazzled. The boulder was raised, and there was a hole below, and Zheng Baoyun's voice came from the hole: "Come in!" I ran forward and came to the cave. Looking down, it was so dark that the cave seemed to be so deep. I just hesitated for a moment, and Zheng Baoyun's extremely anxious voice came up again: "Hurry up!"

He urged me like this, which made me feel a little uncomfortable, but I still jumped straight into the hole. The big rock on my head fell almost immediately, my eyes went dark, and I fell about five meters downwards, falling on a pile of ten on soft objects. The surrounding area was still pitch black, only a burst of rapid panting was heard, and then Zheng Baoyun's voice: "God! You're finally here." I smiled bitterly: "Can't there be some light?" Zheng Baoyun hurriedly said: "No...no need...anyway, you have seen what I look like." His words were quite strange, but I didn't have time to get into the details at this time, so I just asked him: "What are you doing hiding here like a mouse?"

Zheng Baoyun did not answer my question: "Did you receive the signal with a metal plate?" I said "hmm" and wanted to ask him again, but he hurriedly said, "Give me that metal plate." My unhappiness was accumulated little by little. At this moment, I couldn't help saying loudly: "Hey, you'd better figure it out. Don't think that Draconians are qualified to call people on Earth." Zheng Baoyun took a few more breaths, I couldn't see his situation, but from the sound of his breathing, he seemed to be in a very bad situation, before I could figure it out further, he apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to Yes, I am really in a hurry, please give me that metal plate."

I took out the metal plate and explained: "This is your father's relic, hidden in the interlayer of the cupronickel box, the 'Red Man' found it──" As I said, before I stretched my hand forward, I lightened my hand, and someone snatched the metal plate away.This made me even more unhappy, and I snorted. After Zheng Baoyun took the metal plate, he didn't make a sound, but the sound of panting continued. (Assuming that Zheng Baoyun and I were the only ones in the cave, then Zheng Baoyun was the one who took the metal plate.) I think Zheng Baoyun should at least ask me about my dealings with the "Red Man", because I was killed by his tricks and stayed with the "Red Man", and he should care about me.

But he didn't ask, and he didn't say anything. I couldn't see what he was doing in the darkness, but I could imagine that he must be using the metal plate. I know that the metal plate has a very wonderful function, it can receive all kinds of signals, even if I am an ordinary earthling, I can also use it to "listen" and "see", which is amazing.He is a Draconian, so he naturally knows how to use this wonderful metal plate. what is he doing I waited for about three minutes, but he still didn't make a sound. I asked several times before I heard him let out a long breath. I followed the sound and said loudly: "Are you talking? What did you ask me to do?" What happened to Bai Su? What the hell are you doing?"

The more I asked, the more stern my voice became, because in the darkness, everything seemed strange, and Zheng Baoyun acted surreptitiously, which made my unhappiness increase rapidly. Zheng Baoyun was still silent, I stretched out my hand forward, just now I heard his voice and panting, and it was within reach in front of me, but at this moment, I had already taken a step forward, but I still didn't touch anything.And I also noticed that after he let out a breath, he didn't seem to make any sound, not even the sound of breathing.I felt a chill from top to toe, what the hell is this half-day dragon star doing?He has great powers and has a way to leave, leaving me in this dark hole with a twenty-ton boulder on my head. I will never feel happy in this situation.

I suddenly shouted: "Zheng Baoyun!" After drinking it, there was finally an echo, but his voice sounded like it was coming from a very far away: "It's all right, don't worry." I hurried forward following the sound, and after only a few steps, a very soft light came on, and I found myself in a slightly downward corridor, which was very long, at least fifty meters long, at the end of the corridor There, there was a figure standing still.I quickly ran towards that person, it was Zheng Baoyun, he still had a look of panic and doubt on his face, he put the metal plate on his forehead, and pressed his hands together, it seemed very hard.

His eyeballs had been turned up in a very strange posture, looking at the metal plate on his forehead, absorbed in all.Seeing that I came in front of him, he turned around a bit, as a greeting to me, and then pouted his mouth to the side, motioning for me to look. I don't know what he is doing, but looking at him, he is obviously concentrating on something that seems to be very important. Although my heart is full of doubts, I resisted disturbing him and turned to him. Look in the indicated direction. The corridor is not very wide, and there are very flat and smooth stone walls on both sides, showing a very soft off-white color, which looks like stone.I turned my head to look, and couldn't help being stunned for a moment. There were two people neatly embedded in the stone wall.

When I ran forward, I didn't see these two people, because the situation of these two people embedded in the stone is extremely strange. I believe that if I stretch out my hand to touch it, the stone wall must be smooth--I really stretched out my hand to touch it immediately. Yes, the stone wall is extremely smooth, with an extremely thin layer of transparent body covering the two people. The two were standing with their hands next to their bodies, facing out, eyes closed, and when I reached out to touch them, I could almost touch the tips of their noses.A person in such a situation is certainly not a living person.And when he regained his composure a little bit, although the situation was still weird, it was also conceivable that a person was dead, lying in a transparent coffin, and that was the way it looked.It's just that the surroundings of these two people are all gray stones, which seem to be "embedded" in, which is very strange.

The faces of those two people were quite ordinary. I watched for a while, and Zheng Baoyun's voice sounded behind me: "They are dead." I turned around, full of doubts: "They are—" Zheng Baoyun smiled wryly: "My father's companions, the three traitors of Tianlongxing." I stared at Zheng Baoyun: "You told me that you had received their signal after the brain structure change was completed." Zheng Baoyun took a deep breath: "They knew they couldn't survive, so they designed a device. When the device received the brain signal from me, it would respond and call me here."

My thoughts were in a mess: "Three traitors, what do you mean?" Zheng Baoyun suddenly became excited, and made a movement that I didn't expect—throwing the metal plate forward with force, more than ten meters, after the metal plate hit the ground, it bounced several times before stopping. I exasperated: "That metal plate is very useful—" Zheng Baoyun waved his hand: "It's useless, all the information stored in it has already entered my brain." He stretched out his fingers and tapped his head heavily, as if the head belonged to someone else. I took a breath: "What an advanced method of absorbing data." I sincerely sigh, because the way the human brain absorbs information into memory is very backward. Only by constantly watching and listening can it enter the memory storage of the brain, and it will often be forgotten.Therefore, it takes at least ten years for human beings to train a scientist. Looking at Zheng Baoyun's situation, in just ten minutes, most of the materials he has absorbed are extremely large, and it may take decades for people on earth to absorb them. But why does he look so painful?He clasped his head in both hands, squatted down, and hid his face in his arms. Just as I was about to ask, he raised his head to look up, raised his head so that his face was completely upward, took a breath, and said in a strange voice: "After absorbing those materials, I am a Draconian through and through, with all the abilities of a Draconian, and also I know many, many things about Tianlongxing, and I also know why my father never mentioned such a treasure." I couldn't understand it: "What's wrong with that, why are you pretending to be in pain?" Zheng Baoyun stood up suddenly and stared at me with a very fierce expression. I immediately stretched out my fist and pressed it against the tip of his nose. He slapped my hand away angrily: "You don't understand anything." I just couldn't stand his self-consciously superior attitude, so I sneered: "I could have guessed it, but you said that this is my biggest problem. Don't forget, you are hiding in a hole like a mouse, asking me for help." , When you ask me for help, how anxious your tone is." Zheng Baoyun's complexion became extremely ugly. After a while, he sighed: "We must be friends. The matter is very serious. We must work together to deal with it." I sneered: "I can't see what the matter has to do with me, unless you betray me to some alien again! The trouble is you, not only are you only half of the Draconian blood, but also, your father is a traitor , Tianlong Liren will not accept you." I relentlessly counted him down like this because I really couldn't stand his attitude.After I finished speaking, Zheng Baoyun's face turned pale, and I realized that I probably hit his heart. His chest rose and fell, and he sighed again: "The Draconians will want me, as long as I'm willing—" At this point, he stopped abruptly, shook his head vigorously, looked at me, his eyes were shining, his expression was uncertain, obviously there was something extremely difficult to decide, and he had to make a decision. At that moment, I also felt that the situation might be extremely serious, so I also watched him closely. The two looked at each other for a long time before he murmured something I had heard before: "You are my friend, Wesley, and you are my only friend." I took a breath and nodded.Originally, I wanted to say a few words to satirize him, but seeing that he was serious and suffering, I didn't say anything. His face twitched, he raised his head upwards, and bit his lower lip—I don't know what the structure of the Draconian's body is, but at this moment, the expression formed by his facial muscles is the same as that of an earthling when he is suffering. I sighed, "Why are you in pain?" He still maintained that painful expression. I tried to urge him several times, but I managed to hold back. He seemed to know that I was impatient, and gestured for me not to disturb him, let him think about it. I was full of doubts: I don't know what this half-day Dragon Star person is doing.Although he has repeatedly claimed that I am his only friend, is there anything less about the ghostly things he has done to me? It took about ten minutes—for a quick-tempered person like me, it was the limit of patience.Zheng Baoyun seemed to have made a decision at this time, he let out a breath slowly, feeling helpless, closed his eyes for a while, and then looked at me. His first sentence surprised me: "What is the biggest act of sabotage you have ever engaged in in your life?" I was taken aback for a moment: "Are you referring to the abstract destruction, or the concrete?" Zheng Baoyun laughed: "Destruction is destruction. What is the difference between abstract and concrete?" I said, "Of course there is. Blowing up a house with explosives is concrete destruction. Using a few words to reverse other people's original ideas is abstract destruction." Zheng Baoyun listened very carefully, and said "oh": "Yes, there is a difference... Well, you are responsible for the specific damage, and of course I am responsible for the abstract damage." I was so angry by his words that I don't want to be angry anymore. Who has the patience to get angry with such incoherent words?But he suddenly became serious again: "Do you dare to engage in specific sabotage?" I sneered: "What kind of specific destruction? Blast Draco into pieces and make it disappear in the universe?" Anyone could tell that I was mocking him by saying this, but he actually took it seriously and shook his hands: "It's not that serious." His attitude made me unable to ignore his words: "Do you...have any action plan?" He didn't answer right away, but judging from what happened just now, he had a plan. Not only did he think deeply, but he also had a rather painful decision-making process.He stayed for a moment before saying, "It's very difficult, it needs... at least two hundred kilograms of high explosives." I listened and wasn't surprised at all.It should have been surprising, because 200 kilograms of high explosives, if arranged by experts, can raze a 20-story building to the ground within one minute.But at this time, I just thought he was talking nonsense, and I spread my hands: "High explosives, that is a very ancient method of destruction, don't you Tianlong people have a better way?" I smiled and ridiculed him, but Zheng Baoyun's attitude was always very serious, he frowned first, then waved his hand suddenly, his eyes also shone brightly, looked at me, but slowly shook his head. His spooky demeanor was really unbearable, and I didn't bother to pay attention to it, and let him "perform" alone. He bit his lip again and waved his hands, as if suddenly there was a solution to the problem in his heart. , cheered up: "By the way, you can't do it alone, but with... Bai Su to help you, you can." I snorted, Bai Su's whereabouts are unknown, good or bad, the matter must have something to do with the Tianlongxing people, but he is still making sarcastic remarks here.I said in a deep voice, "I need to find her first." Zheng Baoyun frowned: "She is there." I suddenly yelled in his ear, like a thunderstorm: "Where is there?" Zheng Baoyun was taken aback by me, stretched out his hand to push me slightly, and sighed: "It seems that I have to start from the beginning with you." I nodded my head: "It's better that way, lest I get impatient and fill you up with old punches." As I said, I stretched out my fist and shook it in front of him. He reached out and pressed my fist, and then pointed to the two people embedded in the stone wall: "From the beginning...they, and I His father, the three of them, were the first Draconians to come to Earth." He paused: "Three invaders from Dragon Star." Immediately, I remembered the "Red Man"'s evaluation of the earthlings, and hurriedly said, "How can it be an invader?" Zheng Baoyun sighed: "Listen to me, what I'm saying now is all supported by definite documents—it was left by my father." As he said this, he pointed to his forehead.I get it: "That metal plate... told you everything?" He rolled his eyes at me with a "you didn't get it until now" look.I can see that he is very contradictory. On the one hand, he has become a Draconian. He has an innate sense of superiority over the earthlings, and from time to time he looks down on the earthlings.On the other hand, he himself must have been troubled to a considerable extent.He wanted to ask me for help again, and he was in great pain. I was eager to hear his narration, so I didn't bother with him, I just pretended not to see him.He took a breath: "The task of the three of them is to find a star in the vast universe where the Draconians can live. They traveled quite far, passed through many stars, and fought with many creatures on those stars. Cross-talk." I remembered those "red men", the three Draconians passed through the star of the "red men" during their journey, and did a bad thing. The content of this bad thing included deception, plunder, control, blackmail, etc. They took away the "source of life" of the leader of the "red man". It seems that the criminal instinct of the Draconians is on par with that of the Earthlings, so it is no wonder that the Earth is a star suitable for their survival. I was thinking, Zheng Baoyun has already said this: "As a result, I found that on Earth, the living environment is almost the same as that of Tianlongxing." I couldn't help asking: "Why do the Draconians seek another star? The Draco is too small to fit in?" Zheng Baoyun snorted: "You are from Earth, you should understand why?" I raised my hand: "Greed, what else is it for?" Zheng Baoyun immediately admitted: "Insatiable greed, expansion, endless desire... these, the earthlings and the Draconians are brothers and sisters..." He suddenly laughed at himself: "Maybe this is the reason why the Draconians and the earthlings can produce offspring?" This question is too sensitive for Zheng Baoyun, I'd better not express my opinion, so I just pretended I didn't hear it, Zheng Baoyun sighed for a while. He smiled bitterly: "The next thing, you can think of it. They established a base somewhere on the earth and started their activities. With the wisdom of the Draconians, they can easily gain an advantage, but when they are ready When I sent a report to Draco, saying that more Draconians could come to Earth in large numbers, an accident happened.” I was quite nervous when I heard that, although I knew that there was no such thing as “the Draconians encroaching on a large scale”, but when I thought about it, what if If this kind of thing happened a few decades ago, then the people on earth would have no other choice but to become slaves. Zheng Baoyun took a deep breath: "While they are busy building the base, on the other hand, because their appearance is similar to the earth people, they can live among the earth people, and they have the advantage everywhere. They gradually fell in love with the life on the earth. Especially...in love with...Earth...Earth..." When he said this, he faltered for a while, I didn't urge him, he finally said: "Especially in love with earth women." This was quite unexpected: "This... seems unbelievable, are there no women on Tianlongxing?" Zheng Baoyun was also a little confused: "The information I got... is not very detailed in this regard. I only know that in the hearts of the three of them, the love for earth women is many times more than that of Tianlong star women. I can even feel that they When I think of a Draconian woman, I hate, I am afraid, I feel uncomfortable, I want to get rid of the shackles... Wait, that is definitely not an emotion that a happy life should have." I'm still baffled: "Is the appearance of Tianlong star female... very scary?" Zheng Baoyun shook his head: "That's unreasonable, no matter how scary, Tianlongxing men have been watching them all the time, and they are used to it." I laughed: "That's because there is no comparison. Once you compare with women on the earth, you will be superior or inferior. Naturally, you will like what you like." Zheng Baoyun made a gesture: "I have made various assumptions, and the final conclusion is... yes..." He showed hesitation again, apparently he was not sure about his own conclusion. I'm very interested, waiting for him to go on.According to his narration, a few years ago, the people on earth were able to escape the catastrophe and not become slaves of aliens, it seems that it was all because the aliens fell in love with women on earth. Earth. Zheng Baoyun took another breath: "My inference is that on Tianlongxing, men and women have equal intelligence. I mean, both sides know how to control the energy released by their own brain activities, so each other cannot know what the other is really thinking. What. A man and a woman, saying 'I love you' to each other, do they really love each other? Do they have reservations? Do they have other purposes? Do they hate each other to the extreme..." I didn't wait for him to go on "whether" or not, so I interrupted him: "In short, neither side can know the other's true intention." Zheng Baoyun nodded: "Yes." I laughed: "That's nothing, the situation is exactly the same as the relationship between men and women on earth. What you say may be completely different from what you think in your head. Who can know whose true intention?" Zheng Baoyun looked at me for a moment: "If you suddenly come to a place, you can know exactly what the women in that place are thinking. When she tells you that she loves you, you can immediately tell that she is telling the truth. It's still a lie, in that case—" I naturally interfaced: "There really is such a place, and that is the paradise that men dream of." Zheng Baoyun waved his hand vigorously: "That's why my inference is correct. The three of them have the feeling that they have arrived in heaven - they are on the earth, and they can enjoy everything that they can't even dream of on Tianlongxing. They knew that this situation would definitely disappear after the Draconians arrived in large numbers. So, after consideration, the three of them decided to rebel." I murmured: "Three traitors from Draco." Zheng Baoyun spread his hands: "One of them is my father. They decided to live on the earth for a long time and never return to Tianlongxing. Naturally, they thought of how to pass the seed to the next generation──" I closed my eyes for a moment, thinking back to Zheng Tianlu's "going back to the countryside" and choosing a country girl as his wife.He must have some special identification method to pick Mrs. Zheng, and he can also know that Mrs. Zheng must have given him 100% affection of a country girl when she was attracted to him. (every man's dream), Zheng Tianlu's life on earth is naturally inexplicably happy. Zheng Baoyun continued: "There are only two things that bother them. One is that their body structure is somewhat different from that of people on Earth. It is not difficult to cover up carefully; Biggest trouble." I waited for Zheng Baoyun to continue, and he sighed: "Until the end of their lives, they didn't encounter this big trouble. They were very lucky, but the trouble came to me." I stared at him: "Dragon Star has finally sent someone again?" Zheng Baoyun nodded: "I've been looking for them, but I couldn't find them. They hid well. I'm safe here, and I've learned how to control my brain activity, but the second batch of people already knew of my existence. They want me, they want me..." When he said this, he shook his head very sadly: "I don't know what they will do to me, but I never want to be found by them." I expressed moderate surprise: "You have chosen to be a Draconian. The people who came up from Draco are your kind. You must meet them, and you cannot keep avoiding them." Zheng Baoyun blinked, showing a deep cunning, I immediately thought of what he was thinking, and was really surprised.Also because I expected him to have an astonishing criminal intent, I naturally lowered my voice: "The second batch...Dragon Star people, how many are here?" Zheng Baoyun also lowered his voice: "There are still three." I took a slow and deep breath: "Do you want to—" I made a "deal with" gesture, Zheng Baoyun looked nervous, his face was pale, and he nodded.I quickly thought about it, since the Draconians have such a terrible idea of ​​aggression against the earth, it would be best to use Zheng Baoyun's power to wipe them out. Zheng Baoyun is already indistinguishable from the Draconians, but he is half of the earth's blood after all, and since he grew up on the earth, he will not bring in a large number of Draconians. I thought for a moment: "Can you handle them?" Zheng Baoyun shook his head: "Go and deal with it, you and Bai Su, I know that the two of you can deal with any crisis." I held my breath and stared at him.At that moment, what I thought was: I don't know what he was thinking in his heart.But what I was thinking, he could totally know. If he wants to use me and betray me, I have no room to plan for myself. Now, he wants me and Bai Su to deal with the second batch of three Draconians. The apparent reason is to prevent the Draconians from expanding their power on Earth.Because the three Draconians, whether they found him or couldn't find him, would continue what the three traitors hadn't done. Naturally, as analyzed by Zheng Baoyun, the Draconians feel extremely superior and satisfied with living on the earth, and the three Draconians may also follow in the footsteps and betray Draco. But that is only "possible", if these three Draconians are loyal to Draco and carry out Draco's expansion plan, the people on earth will face a great tragedy. Therefore, Bai Su and I should do our best to deal with the Draconians as long as possible. However, I don't know if Zheng Baoyun has another purpose, because his wisdom far surpasses mine. As I thought about it, Zheng Baoyun let out a long sigh: "You have to trust me, other than that, I don't think you have any other options." I admitted that his words made sense, and thought about it again: "Face to face with force? Just now you mentioned two hundred kilograms of high explosives..." Zheng Baoyun said: "They have also built a base. My plan is to destroy the entire base, including the three of them. Then, it will take at least 80 to 100 years before the third batch of Dragon Stars will come. At that time, there may be enough power on Earth to deal with it." I said in a deep voice: "It seems that you have completely forgotten that you have half of the Draconian blood." Zheng Baoyun smiled wryly: "Do you think I just faked those painful expressions? I tossed and turned, I don't know how long I thought about it, and finally I made the current decision." Let me ask again: "It may not be your half-earth blood that prompted you to make such a decision, right?" Zheng Baoyun said: "No...I don't think so." I couldn't help being a little nervous: "So what made you make up your mind?" Zheng Baoyun waved his hand vigorously: "Why should I go back to Dracostar? When I get there, I am just a second-class Draconian, but on Earth, I am a super Draconian. I can...do whatever I want here, if I would."
