catch the dream

"So what do they plan to use after they get the Golden Crow Wheel?" Zhou Sheng said in a deep voice, watching the half-floating and half-sinking tea leaves in the glass, some floated to the top, while others sank to the bottom.

Qin Guodong did not answer.

"Another question," Zhou Sheng thought for a while, and then said, "Is Ren Chong going to continue handing it in after getting it? Hand it in layer by layer, and put it in a place where important treasures are collected in some country?"

"There must be a conclusion when submitting it." Qin Guodong laughed and explained, "It's not that if you pick up something casually and take it to the State Council, others will believe you and accept it. If you want the leader to believe it, you must Combined with real objects, there will be a detailed research report, and a demonstration will be given when necessary.”

Zhou Sheng suddenly sensed Qin Guodong's deepest true intentions hidden under layers of camouflage.

"They discussed many ways at the beginning." Qin Guodong said, "Zhao Liang used his personal relationship to set up a small research laboratory, but not long after, Ren Chong discovered his real purpose, maybe it was to keep it for himself ...so some disputes broke out between them, and the investigation team decided to temporarily disband."

Zhou Sheng thought for a while and said, "Ren Chong wants to protect me and it for the time being, and wait for the opportunity to communicate with me and conduct investigations. Zhao Liang can't wait to start. But in the final analysis, without my cooperation, get The Golden Crow Wheel is also useless."

Qin Guodong said: "This is the initial agreement after negotiating with the old Ren when I left."

Zhou Sheng: "Let me hold the Golden Crow Wheel, and no one will make a quick move. Whoever strikes first will lose. But do you know me that well? You can't tell."

Qin Guodong glanced at his watch and replied: "This was proposed by Huang Ting. The actual plan is very complicated. Lao Ren's opinion is 'can be considered', provided that you have the strength to protect this treasure so as not to cause further leaks. "

"The actual plan is complicated?" Zhou Sheng asked in surprise.

"The plan to study the Golden Crow Wheel." Qin Guodong said, "I still remember the day when we saw Huang Ting's report for the first time, everyone thought it was very incredible."

Zhou Sheng said: "When I got the Golden Crow Wheel for the first time, I also thought it was incredible. I even wondered if it had some mission for me to complete. After the mission is over, everyone related to it will forget about it." Everything about it…”

"No." Qin Guodong shook his head and said, "The existence of the 'Golden Crow Wheel' is not strange. People have seen things with their own eyes that are more peculiar than it and cannot be explained by current scientific principles. What I mean by inconceivable is Because it chose you."

Qin Guodong spread his hands, Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "So what?"

Qin Guodong looked into Zhou Sheng's eyes meaningfully, and said, "What do you plan to do next?"

Zhou Sheng replied: "When they come to your door, it will take ten days at most, or half a month at least. When someone can't hold back anymore, they will always find me and ask me to cooperate with the research. The real world is their territory. Here is my site, he must not have left Beijing too far, maybe he is hiding somewhere in this city, do you know the address of his laboratory?"

Qin Guodong said: "No one knows. In the last period of time, Zhao Liang didn't reveal his plan to us. Perhaps because of this, Lao Ren couldn't save Huang Ting. He must have his own reasons. Don't intervene now. The struggle between them. Huang Ting will be rescued, this is no longer something you can handle."

"Okay." Zhou Sheng let out a breath, pondered for a moment, and then got up.

Qin Guodong said: "If I were you, the only thing I have to do now is to protect myself and stop provoking Zhao Liang. On the surface, I promised to cooperate with him. As you said, once you fall into a dream, you can do whatever you want .”

"Zhao Liang is not a fool," Zhou Sheng said casually, "he will definitely figure out the principle of dreams, and then let me enter his dreams. It is hard to say whether he can defeat the boss in his heart. Let's go, Ban is still here." Gotta keep going."

In the newspaper office, Yu Hao finished sorting out today's manuscript and said, "I'm going to be a blood station for the next topic."

"Okay." Lin Ze said, "Blood donation and use of blood, right? It's been a long time since they didn't like it, and the society will fully support you, in the March issue."

Yu Hao said again: "Is April okay? I need more time to prepare, and I still have a graduation thesis to write."

Lin Ze checked the table and readily agreed.Yu Hao didn't make an appointment for an interview today, and was planning to have an afternoon tea with his informant, and as soon as he left the newspaper office, Zhou Sheng's call came.

"Zhao Liang's base is in one of Yanqing and Huairou," Zhou Sheng said on the phone, "Can you find the relevant personnel there and ask?"

Yu Hao: "He won't hang a sign of 'Jinwulun Research Institute' outside the base, don't think about it."

Zhou Sheng: "Personnel transfers and defenses will leave traces."

"Even if the exact address is found," Yu Hao said on the phone, "you can't go in and save Huang Ting alone, can you? Ren Chong will definitely take action. If I were him, I would only rent a place in a residential area." Three bedrooms and one living room..."

"Listen to me." Zhou Sheng was always paying attention to the environment. After leaving the alley, a car parked on the side of the road. Zhou Sheng stepped forward and opened the door. Chen Yekai was sitting in the driver's seat. Zhou Sheng plugged his phone into the charger. Turning on the Bluetooth, he said to Yu Hao, "Zhao Liang's place has a set of research equipment, which he got somewhere before the trio went home, so it might not be in such a hidden place as a residential building."

Chen Yekai interjected, "I've seen STA's computer for analysis. If you want to study data, the volume will not be too small."

Yu Hao said on the phone: "The defense will definitely be very strict."

"So, we still need Huang Ting's cooperation." Zhou Sheng said patiently, "What news did Kaikai get?"

Chen Yekai said: "Try it according to your request. I made an appointment with him. He asked for three days later."

"Huang Ting must be brought out as soon as possible," Zhou Sheng said.

"Ren Chong can't ignore him," Yu Hao said, "He is Ren Chong's student."

Zhou Sheng replied, "Huang Ting has been missing for 48 hours now."

Chen Yekai nodded and said, "Yes, if you want to save someone, you would have gone already."

Chen Yekai was driving aimlessly on the road, Zhou Sheng said again: "Qin Guodong, Ren Chong, and Zhao Liang, among these three people, there must be two who are secretly ganging up, but we just don't know who is ganging up with whom. "

"Your boss probably won't," Yu Hao said on the phone, "If you want to do it, you should do it long ago."

"Now I don't think so," Zhou Sheng said, "One of them is tough, and the other is soft."

"Your boss knows very well that the Golden Crow Wheel can't function without you." Chen Yekai drove the car intently, and casually said, "Maybe everyone wants the Golden Crow Wheel, but the means are different, and now it seems that Qin Guodong is obviously better. At least he has won your initial trust. Zhou Sheng, I have something to say..."

"Huh?" Zhou Sheng pondered for a moment while playing with the Golden Crow Wheel.

"I know that Huang Ting has nothing to do with you, because you don't like him too much because you took away the Golden Crow Wheel." Chen Yekai stopped at the red light, sighed, and said, "But he is mine. He means a lot to me, my friends, and I can do nothing about it myself but hope in you."

"I didn't say I wouldn't save him. See what you said, do I look like such a cold-blooded person?" Zhou Sheng stopped thinking, said with a smile, and then told the phone: "Yu Hao, you go home."

Yu Hao knew what Zhou Sheng meant, and asked, "Okay, I pushed back the informant I made this afternoon, do you want to call Qihang and brother?"

"No, just the three of us." Zhou Sheng said, "Leave a message for brother, tell him not to wake you up when he comes back, Kaikai, and find a hotel to get a room."

Zhou Sheng hung up the phone, turned his head to look at Chen Yekai, Chen Yekai nodded immediately, and did not speak any more.

When Yu Hao returned home, he woke up very early today, but he was sleepy before noon. After lunch, he was even more sleepy, as if all his strength had been taken away.

"I want a bed." Yu Hao said, "I feel sleepy even in my dream."

"It will be fine in a while." Chen Yekai said, "You feel sleepy in your dream because your brain has insufficient blood supply."

In the world of Chichen Itza, Yu Hao, Zhou Sheng, and Chen Yekai watched the scene inside the Golden Crow Wheel. It was noon, and most people did not take a nap. It looks very messy.

Zhou Sheng said: "Let's exchange information first, what did Aze say?"

The two briefly exchanged the information they had inquired. Chen Yekai watched the scene in the center of the pyramid and the Golden Crow Wheel, while Zhou Sheng's dragon appeared behind them.Different from other dreams, most of the time when the Golden Crow Wheel stays this time, it shows a dark labyrinth with a violent storm inside, thunder and lightning.

"It's strange," Yu Hao said, "This is the only person who is sleeping right now, is it him?"

Zhou Sheng murmured: "It's definitely him. There can be no one else. A person who is facing death and dreams of you. Who else could be besides Huang Ting? Let's go!"

Zhou Sheng walked towards the Golden Crow Wheel, and the black dragon wanted to follow, but Zhou Sheng made a "stop" motion with his hand back, and stretched out his hand towards Yu Hao, the two of them fell into the Golden Crow Wheel, and Chen Yekai immediately jumped into it.

Just like before, when he entered, he was separated from Zhou Sheng in the strong wind. In the midst of his busy schedule, Yu Hao looked back and saw a full moon in the sky!

This time it was shot from the moon!

With a loud bang of thunder and lightning, Yu Hao instantly submerged in the clouds, and then the storm poured down, drenching his head and face, and his whole body was drenched. Lightning appeared around him, tangled and scurrying, illuminating Yu Hao's whole body.

"Ah—" Yu Hao yelled loudly. The moment he fell from the sky, his adrenaline surged wildly. For some reason, this dream was much more realistic than all the dreams he had ever experienced. The ever-approaching land!

"Zhou Sheng!" Yu Hao turned his head and shouted, the ground was getting closer and closer, he tried to spread his wings, and the wings worked!He didn't have time to think about it, he flapped his wings vigorously, but the strong wind kept turning, and he was blown to roll in the air after a little flapping. He couldn't control the direction, so he could only spread his wings and glide by the wind.

Looking down at the land from the air, Yu Hao discovered that the entire land is only a vast maze area, and the maze is backed by a huge wall of infinite height, extending into the depths. He can't estimate the specific area of ​​the maze based on the height he is at, but looking at it this way Come on, it is obviously much smaller than Loulan.The periphery of the maze was submerged in the surging black mist, which was constantly engulfing the area of ​​the maze.

The high wall of the labyrinth was nearly ten meters high. When Yu Hao fell down, he hit his head on the masonry, but he was already prepared, turned around and folded his wings, kicked on the high wall, turned over in the air, put his shoulders on the wall, Sliding down the wall.

The maze is full of water flowing everywhere, Yu Hao stood in the ankle-deep water and felt a chill.Could it be that the quilt was not covered on the feet before going to sleep?But he no longer intends to get up and cover the quilt again.He still remembered looking down from the air in the middle of the maze, a pool-like building and a temple appeared.

"Zhou Sheng!" Yu Hao groped while touching the wall of the maze, wading forward through the water.

He tried to spread his wings, but the passageway in the maze was only about three meters wide, so he couldn't use his strength to fly up to the top of the wall to observe and find Zhou Sheng.And where did Zhou Sheng go?Where is the owner of the dream world?

"They really entered Huang Ting's dream."

"Mr. Zhao, you can use this device for peripheral connection."

"Don't worry." Zhao Liang stood in front of the big screen with his hands behind his back, watching the signal analysis on the screen thoughtfully. Huang Ting was fixed on a chair and injected with a sedative. Sweat, especially the blood vessels on the arms.

On the surrounding high walls, rainwater was pouring down continuously. Yu Hao walked halfway, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.In an instant, the wall turned over, and a huge guillotine appeared, cutting across!

Yu Hao yelled, and immediately turned sideways to avoid it. After the guillotine was activated, it cut once within a few seconds, and the sharp edge brushed into the opposite high wall.If he hadn't stopped just now, he would have been cut in half by this organ in an instant!

Why did Huang Ting have such a weird mechanism in his dream? !Yu Hao felt like he was playing a maze game, he might be crushed to death or cut open at any moment, his heart was beating wildly, he saw the opportunity, ran up, brought a string of water splashes, and rushed across the ramp area.

Suddenly, I heard a strange sound mixed with the storm and thunder, like gunshots!He tried his best to identify it for a while, and said to himself: "Teacher Chen?!" Then he ran quickly and turned around the corner of the maze. The gunshot became more and more obvious, and with a clanging sound, Yu Hao shouted from under the high wall: "Teacher Chen!"

"It's me!" Zhou Sheng's voice shouted.

"Zhou Sheng!" Yu Hao heard the sound of bullets hitting the shield, and it became more and more intense. Zhou Sheng shouted, "Face in my direction! Run to your left! Pay attention to the mechanism!"

Yu Hao immediately turned around and started running, shouting, "What mechanism?"

However, at the next moment, countless sharp blades suddenly rose from the ground, Yu Hao shouted, and Zhou Sheng shouted: "Jump!"

Yu Hao jumped up in the air, passed the sharp knife mechanism, and flew towards an open space. This open space happened to be a break at the end of a wall in the maze. As soon as Yu Hao turned around, Zhou Sheng rushed towards him with the shield on his back, and stretched out his hand to grab Yu Hao. With a pull, Yu Hao took off on the ground, shook his wings, and rolled over with Zhou Sheng in his arms in the limited space.

Several machine guns were pulled out from the wall, and they fired at them. Zhou Shengren held his shield in the air to resist, and Yu Hao shouted: "Watch out for your back!"

Zhou Sheng turned his head, and saw a huge square stone rushing towards them with a bang along the end of the corridor. If the two of them hit each other like this, they would be blown away immediately.At the last moment, Zhou Sheng hugged Yu Hao in one hand, turned the shield into a golden cudgel, and pushed it towards the ground. The golden cudgel suddenly extended, and with a "swish", it brought the two of them straight up!

The surrounding maze suddenly seemed to sense that Zhou Sheng was planning to escape, and the high wall began to rise at the same speed, Yu Hao said: "I can't rush out!"

Zhou Shengsheng reached the top of the high wall, but couldn't break through further, and shouted: "Hold me tight!"

Immediately, Fang Shi bumped against the golden cudgel, causing Zhou Sheng's wrist to suffer severe pain, and he almost broke a bone.The golden cudgel was knocked out, and the two of them were thrown into the air. Zhou Sheng grabbed the edge of the square stone, led Yu Hao to turn over, and climbed onto the top of the organ stone!

The top was even with the top of the high wall of the maze, Fang Shi led the two of them back quickly, preparing for the next impact, Yu Hao shouted: "Jump!"

The two jumped up to the top of the wall, Zhou Sheng stretched out his hand to call back the golden cudgel, Yu Hao almost fell to the other side of the wall, but Zhou Sheng caught him in time, and the two barely stood on the top of the maze wall.

Yu Hao couldn't help panting, and said, "The walls of this maze will grow taller."

Zhou Sheng said: "You can't cross it too much. It should be the limit in Huang Ting's dream. It's okay to walk along the wall. Be careful not to slide down."

Yu Hao looked into the distance, a beam of light flashed, shooting towards the sky from another corner of the maze.

The high wall of the maze is about two meters wide. Standing on the top of the wall, you can see the general winding direction, but you can't see the whole maze. Zhou Sheng said: "Huang Ting should be near the edge of the subconscious, like you did last time." , go find Kaikai by the way."

Yu Hao and Zhou Sheng walked along the wall towards the mist in the distance. He tried to spread his wings to fly, but the high wall under his feet continued to rise with his movements.

"Don't work in vain," Zhou Sheng said, "It's useless, let's go."

Yu Hao looked down, every time they walked a certain distance, they would trigger dense traps, and a spherical boulder would roll over. Fortunately, they were on the wall of the maze, otherwise, they would be crushed into meatloaf even if they had a shield .

"Are you injured?" Yu Hao said, "Let me see."

Zhou Sheng had gunshot wounds on his shoulders and arms, and was bleeding. He stroked his wet hair to the top of his head, while Yu Hao released his strength to heal him.Zhou Sheng looked around the maze, as if he was judging where Huang Ting might be.

"Why did you come out of the moon?" Zhou Sheng said, "After I came in, I appeared in the maze."

"I don't know." Yu Hao said, "Okay, let's go. Maybe it's because Huang Ting thinks I have a little ability to illuminate his dark night? Speaking of which, what do you think the boss in this dream will be?"

Zhou Sheng murmured, but did not answer. After Yu Hao healed his wounds, the skin wounds healed, but the torn clothes did not heal. Zhou Sheng took off his soaked shirt and tied it around his waist. Wear shirtless to facilitate activities.

"This place is full of bullets, bullets, mountains of swords and flames that he has dealt with in these years." Zhou Sheng said, "Be careful, don't fall."

Yu Hao guessed that Huang Ting, as a special criminal policeman, might have formed the impression in his mental world when handling a case that he would have the impression of breaking through a maze. There are countless puzzles lying in front of him, and he has to beware of dangers that appear at any time. These dangers are all concretized into the maze organ.

"Kaikai is a little anxious today." Zhou Sheng walked ahead, turned his head and said to Yu Hao.

"Huang Ting is his good friend, it's normal to be anxious." Yu Hao said.

"No, I just think it's abnormal for him to be anxious." Zhou Sheng replied, "He was too anxious to urge us to come to Huang Ting's dream. What do you think he said to Zhao Liang that day?"

Yu Hao pondered for a moment, and said, "Since he didn't trick you into getting into the car and drove to Zhao Liang's base, there should be no problem."

"He is only himself, not my opponent." Zhou Sheng said again.

Yu Hao said: "But he can also get people to ambush him in the car or in the hotel."

"Yeah." Zhou Sheng said, "So you trust him."

"If you don't trust him, you won't let him in together." Yu Hao said.

Zhou Sheng replied, "I want to see what Zhao Liang is planning."
