The tender green leaves fell off the branches and slowly fell in the sunshine on the yellow dotted line in the middle of the highway. A wheel rolled over and rolled it up and threw it into the lane on the other side.

A bus with the words "Tourism Circle" sounded the horn, drove through a curve, lit up the right turn light, entered the toll station, and left the highway intersection.

MV is playing in the middle of the aisle, and melodious and soothing music is coming out. There are many seats on both sides, and there are many free seats. They sit in groups of three or three, watching the scenery along the way.

"My mother-in-law, where are we going? I'm afraid it's been two hours since we left Jiaohe County?"

Wang Suhua was also in the car. She and her husband were picked up from Tongshan Town the night before. At the beginning of the period, they were reluctant to travel so far, but Xia Jianbin heard that his son Xia Yi was abroad, so he pulled her into the car and didn't even bring a piece of clothes to change.

Of course, they didn’t need to prepare their clothes. When they were on a long journey, Zhou Jin bought a few pieces for the two old men along the way.

"I don't know either, so I said that the two dolls were abroad and missed us. Let us all go there together. Isn't that just coming directly? That little Zhou should know, right?"

Wang Suhua glanced at the bus seat inside, a woman who was sleeping with her eyes closed, and leaned closer to her and whispered: "I'm embarrassed to ask."

In the seat behind the two, Xia Jianbin studied the map flat on his legs and frowned: "I don't know much, but Jiaohe County still knows it. We came out of here and walked north all the time, more than 200 kilometers, my in-laws, see where is this place."

He pointed to a place name on the map. Jiang Jiancheng next to him looked out the window, thinking about what happened yesterday afternoon, and felt extremely uncomfortable. He heard the words of asking, and then came back to his mind and turned his head to look at the map.

"It seems to have reached Chongsui's territory."

Jiang Jiancheng leaned back and felt suspicious: "Shouldn't you go to Bairen City when you go abroad and take a plane? Why did you take a bus here? I remember that there are remote areas here, there are no airports and no big rivers, how can you go abroad? Could it be that my son-in-law deliberately teased the four of us old people, right?"

"Teaches you? Your son-in-law has the time to tease you, and he won't bring his parents with him. Keep your mouth shut and ride your car." Xu Qiuhua turned from the front seat and glared at him: "I haven't settled yesterday with you yet. Be careful that I suddenly feel unhappy and throw you out of this window."

Jiang Jiancheng shrank his neck, put his hands into his cuffs and leaned back, muttering: "My mother-in-law and father-in-law are here, and I don't say I'll leave it for face."

"You also know that your in-laws and mother-in-law are here. Listen to what you said just now. If your ancestors know, the spiritual position will be so embarrassed!"

"You're enough!?"

"I'm not convinced yet, let's see how I deal with you!"

"Come here?!"

The four old people actually didn’t have much knowledge, and they talked about family matters along the way. Naturally, Charlene and her best friend didn’t dare to be interested. They wore headphones, listened quietly to the music inside, swiped the screen with their mobile phones, and took a look outside from time to time and posted it on their Moments.

The quarrel between Jiang Jiancheng and his wife became louder. The two women took off their headphones and looked over. Zhou Jin, who was sleeping behind, opened his eyes, got up and walked over.

The quarrels between the couple stopped talking and sat back in their seats in disappointment.

Jiang Jiancheng hummed with his arms and said, "It's a trip, we don't even know where we go, and we're still angry along the way."

"I have never been to where the boss is," leaned against the side seat and bounced his scarlet nails: "But at least we are indeed on the way."

"Xiao Zhou."

Wang Suhua stood up with some concern and squeezed out a smile: "What is Xiaoyi doing now? Suddenly it is a big villa and a luxury car. I, the goddamn, know nothing. You are his subordinates. I don't want to ask him, so I want to ask you here."

Xia Jianbin, Xu Qiuhua, and Jiang Jiancheng also looked at Zhou Jin. After all, suddenly, Xia Yi became so rich that the four of them were worried.

Zhou Jin walked back and sat down to a seat not far away: "Don't worry, the boss has staked the funds."

"Above?" The four of them subconsciously looked up and saw nothing but the roof of the car.

"Anyway, what you mean is that you are clean?" Jiang Jiancheng breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly slapped his hands, and stood up: "We are a family trip, why is the big beard behind him following him?"

He pointed to the direction, the bus went into the last row, wearing a Zhongshan suit, a short figure with a big beard, holding a cell phone, pressing his fingers quickly. Perhaps he heard someone say that he raised his head, the lenses reflected, and he laughed twice.

"That was a ride-hailing ride. I don't know who it is. Anyway, someone told me to go with us." Zhou Jin shrugged, closed his eyes and rested.

At this time, the man in the back row put away his cell phone, stroked both sides and walked over. Looking at Jiang Jiancheng with a gloomy face, he came to his back seat and patted his shoulder.

"Brother, we are destined to be."

Xu Qiuhua glanced at the two of them suspiciously: "You know each other?"

"I don't know!"

"know!"

On the other side, the two of them said in unison. The bearded man looked at the woman, then waved his hand and changed his words: "If you don't know each other, then you will."

Jiang Jiancheng stared at him, and in Xu Qiuhua's scrutiny, Xia Jianbin next to him patted his thigh and smiled: "Brother, this woman is like a crop. She must love and feel sorry for her, but also take action."

"Hmm?" Wang Suhua turned his face.

The former proudly raised his chest: "Only by doing something, you can take care of it more! Men, you can cultivate a piece of land all your life. You can't just be diligent, but you have to let the land be relieved appropriately. If you are poor, you will not be able to plant anything."

"This guy said it well!"

The bearded man stroked the glasses on his nose and admired Xia Jianbin's words just now: "The land is the same as a woman. I said it thoroughly. If it was still in my era, fuck you, I will be a great manager!"

Xu Qiuhua stood up and said, "Hey, how do you bearded man speak?"

“Fuck…”

"You dare to scold people!"

The noisy sound continued in the car, and the bus, which was quite lively, passed through a tunnel, entered the mountainous area, turned at a fork, and drove to another relatively remote road without any signs.

Summer cicadas were roaring one after another among the green mountains on both sides. On the side of the road, a river water that could be seen under the water slowly flowed down the branches on the water surface. A white water bird was combing its feathers and watching the quarrels slowly passing by.

soon.

Ma Bang's voice sounded in the cab: "Don't talk, we're here!"

“Going abroad?”

Xiaoshuang, who was playing with her mobile phone, was the first to stand up and look out. She saw camouflage military jeeps docked on the side of the road. The soldiers with real guns and live ammunition were alert along the way. Looking at the cold light reflected by the sunlight at the muzzle, she was so scared that she sat back and her voice became stuttering: "Why are there soldiers outside... and they are holding guns, what are we here for?"

Others also looked nervous on their faces, and even Zhou Jin felt a little uneasy for a moment. It was her first time here.

"Old Ma, you're not going the wrong way, are you?"

"No...no, just follow the navigation given by Chen Sha."

While speaking, the bearded man laughed out loud and waved heroically: "All the warriors who defend their country. Are you still afraid of your family? Let's continue to fuck you."

"This old guy can't live without fucking..."

Xu Qiuhua muttered, walked off the bus with the others nervously, and came to face several soldiers. After checking their luggage and their belongings, they let them go. Someone led the way in front and followed the mountain to the back of the mountain. The scenery along the road gradually changed.

There are metal structures on the mountain walls, and various pipes are laid down below, and occasionally a light blue light flashes over, giving the illusion of a science fiction movie.

"Someone in front of you picked you up!"

The person who led the way said goodbye and left. Not far from the side of a huge mechanical door in front of him, a petite figure was sitting on several large piles of iron boxes, gnawing on some food. When he saw Zhou Jin and his group coming, he quickly stood up and waved his hand excitedly.

Then, jumped down: "This side is here!!"

"I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I saw you." Ma Bang had already been in a cold sweat. The moment he saw the dog girl, he completely relaxed. "Hongmao and the others are here too? Where are they?"

"I've been looking for Xia Yi a long time ago. Don't you know?"

Guo Manyuan looked at the sky with her fingers and tilted her neck: "I think about it, besides the three of them, there are Lao Li, electric python, empty knife, and crazy rat... Well, there seems to be another person named Bai Ning who brought a large group of people over. A few days ago, there were more, but we didn't let us see it, and we heard the sound of stuttering until dawn."

"That's the sound of horse hooves." The bearded man behind everyone said in his mouth.

"You know?"

The bearded man laughed and looked at the metal gate in front of him: "How can you not hear the sound of iron hooves fighting? I think of Xudu..."

"Let's go, don't pay attention to this bearded man, crazy."

Ma Bang pushed the dog girl out a few steps, stopped suddenly, and turned around: "Hey, where is the fat man? Has he got out of the car?"

"Here's here!"

From afar, in the direction when he came, Zhao Dezhu ran over with a big bag and a duckbill hat, panting and looking at everyone.

"When you left, you didn't call me. If the soldiers who came up woke me up, they would almost have forgotten me in the car."

"Who told you to play with your phone and fall asleep?"

The fat man shook his phone with a solemn and serious expression: "I'm serious!" After saying that, he turned around and looked around, "What did Lao Yi ask us to do here? It feels like a secret research institute in the movie."

Not only them, but even the soldiers guarding and defending around them didn't know what they were doing here.

The wind blew through the canyon, and the dense woods on both sides above made a slight sound.

Since a year ago, Xia Yi made a deal with Wan Guohao of the commuter bureau. Soon after, military vehicles began to enter this place, and a large number of engineers and scientific research have also moved in. Various science fiction buildings were built against the mountain walls, doing secret work.

At the same time, Jiaohe County suddenly had a technology company called Tianshi. The components of it were built as a skeleton by Tianhu Company, which was once famous in Bairen City. It was also a merger and reorganization completed by the government's efforts to match it, and even had technical interoperability with Ancreton, the United States, which was far away from the ocean.

Of course, many of these are commercial secrets at the national level and are not disclosed to the public.

After the two companies shared the technology, the research that was originally located in this canyon also expanded, building a huge portal that was almost equal to the canyon and was about one hundred meters away.

Regarding the general information on the other side of the Light Gate, China knows some of the general information here. For the sake of security, it is better to let the army guard it. After the first garrison there is established and the safe area is successfully opened up, diplomatic relations will be established with the civilization there. News about the other world will be made public and opened to the public.

Even travel.

As for the energy maintained by the light gate, Xia Yi will be continuously supplied. The prerequisite is that the person who belongs to him can come first and unobstructed in the future.

"This is a trembling idea..." Chen Yaozu, as the spokesperson of Tianshi Company, held his daughter and stood on the entire platform of the Canyon Research Institute, looking at the huge portal bit by bit, and built a majestic appearance decoration in the electric welding light of countless engineers.

These are things he had never thought of in his life, and they were actually done step by step in his hand.

"Let's go, Xixi, let's go over and take a look."

"Yes!" The little girl turned around and put her back on the back of the schoolbag on the chair, took her father's hand, walked off the platform, and raised her little face: "Are there many monsters over there?"

"It should be, and there are all kinds of races."

"Then can I draw them down? In the summer homework assigned by the teacher, we will draw a happy summer vacation."

"The others can't do it, but you are my daughter, that's OK."

The father and daughter led the crowds passing by, and there were vehicles coming here in the distance. A woman named Keiko Sakai took her son Shingo off the bus and would also arrive here.

"We're all in the world, let's go."

Guo Manyuan took out a small flag from somewhere, raised it over her head excitedly, and shouted in the eyes of the soldiers around her.
