Chapter 341: Slip of the Hand
After watching Yu Sheng disappear into a door that appeared out of nowhere, Zheng Zhi stared blankly at the open space not far away, seeming very surprised.
Li Lin beside him couldn't help but laugh when he saw him like this: "Surprised? You will be surprised later. It is said that after No. 66 Wutong Road is moved away, the spatial structure of this entire vacant land will be instantly 'smoothed'. Do you see these houses around? They will be connected together later... Wait! You can't see No. 66 Wutong Road, right?"
Zheng Zhi waved his hand when he heard it: "That's not the case. I'm just curious about how Brother Yu's door appeared."
"Oh, that's good. You scared me." Li Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. "The director can't even see the house. If you could see it... then you should go to Doctor Lin to have your brain removed."
Zheng Zhi turned his head and asked, "Who is Doctor Lin?"
"The strange doctor who cooperates with the Secret Service lives nearby. He is good at autopsies and brain removal. Brain removal is a popular term. It actually means a small operation on you. After the operation, you will increase your psychic resistance," Li Lin said casually, but then added, "But don't think about it. It is the last resort. Although you can't see strange things after the operation, you will drool when calculating addition and subtraction within ten."
Zheng Zhi shuddered suddenly and didn't dare to say anything. He just turned his head involuntarily to look at the open space not far away.
A huge, almost transparent shadow stood there quietly, confronting him quietly like a giant beast squatting on the ground.
The transparency is extremely high, and the outline of the phantom cannot be seen unless you look carefully. Zheng Zhi feels that this cannot be considered as "seeing" - he does not want to find an alien doctor to remove his brain.
"Okay, go back to the house and familiarize yourself with the manuals. I'll go to the supermarket at the intersection to buy some things." Li Lin patted Zheng Zhi on the shoulder. "No. 66 Wutong Road is gone. There shouldn't be anything going on here recently. Don't be so nervous - being too nervous can easily lead to encountering strange things."
Zheng Zhi nodded quickly: "Oh, okay."
Li Lin smiled and turned away while muttering: "Hey, finally I don't have to go out on field work every day like before..."
Zheng Zhize stood there for a few seconds before turning around and walking towards the station hut. But before entering the house, he involuntarily turned his head and glanced at the huge shadow of No. 66 Wutong Road.
Yu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling the "information" he had just recorded on the Guanyun Terrace of Qianfeng Lingshan, and then tried to convert the coordinates to the new "location" of No. 66 Wutong Road.
This was his first time trying to move the house in the real world, and it was such a long distance at one time. To be honest, he was a little nervous.
After all, the City in the Mist and the city in the real world are at most upstairs and downstairs, but the Thousand Peaks and Sacred Mountains and the border area are across countries.
He took a deep breath, concentrated more of his mind, spread his spirituality, and then instantly completed the assignment—
Outside the living room window, the scenery suddenly changed! A chaotic and brilliant light and shadow suddenly rolled up like a storm, but it subsided and retreated in an instant that humans could hardly react. It was as if the whole world was compressed and folded outside the window. The distortion and penetration of space were fleeting. The next second, the familiar street scenery of Jiecheng disappeared, replaced by a white jade platform surrounded by fairy air, a sea of clouds rising in the distance, and thousands of peaks in the clouds.
Yu Sheng exhaled slightly and let go of the door handle.
"Done." He turned happily and said to Irene who was lying on the windowsill, then pushed open the door and walked out.
Hu Li, Irene and Luna were standing at the door.
The breeze from the fairy mountain blew in his face, and the fresh mountain air refreshed him. Yu Sheng walked towards Hu Li happily: "I'm back with my family. We can go home from here. You... um? What are you looking at?"
He suddenly stopped talking halfway because he realized that Hu Li and the others were not looking at him, but were looking in another direction not far away with a look of astonishment (except Luna, who had a stiff face).
Yu Sheng subconsciously followed the gaze of the three people and was stunned.
A small house stands quietly in a corner of Guanyuntai, facing No. 66 Wutong Road. The small house is unremarkable, with a sign hanging at the door that reads "Xingchen MRT Wutong Road Collection Point".
Yu Sheng: “……?”
The next second, the door of the express delivery point was pushed open, and Zheng Zhi ran out in a daze, staring at Yu Sheng and others.
As soon as Irene saw the other person coming out, she exclaimed, "Ah, nephew!"
Zheng Zhi was even more shocked than her: "...Where did this come from?!"
Then all eyes at the scene fell on Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng looked around, his mouth twitching: "Why are you looking at me... I don't know what's going on!"
"Don't you know? Did you open the door wide again?" Irene came over and jumped up and hit Yu Sheng's thigh with her head, "Don't act so freely all the time!"
At this time, Zheng Zhi also walked over tremblingly, looking around as he walked. The fairy mountains, auspicious clouds, pavilions and towers that came into view made him stunned. When he arrived in front of Yu Sheng, he could not help but speak: "Brother Yu, this..."
"Qianfeng Lingshan," Yu Sheng felt his facial muscles stiffen a little, "I may have used too much force when I moved."
Zheng Zhi: “…”
"Where is Li Lin?" Yu Sheng looked at the small house not far away again and asked curiously.
Zheng Zhi: "Brother Li said he was going to the supermarket to buy something. As soon as he left, I came to your place with the station."
Yu Sheng opened his mouth, and just when he was about to say something else, a ray of light flying in from afar interrupted his action.
The rays of light fell to the ground, and Xuan Che and Yuan Ling Zhenren took their human forms and appeared.
Yuan Ling Zhenren's face was full of smiles: "I saw a spiritual light rising from the Guanyun Terrace from afar. I thought you had moved here, so I came to see what was going on..."
The immortal suddenly stopped talking halfway and looked at the Cloud Observation Platform with a strange expression.
The Guanyun Terrace had expanded more than twice as much as before, something that ordinary people could not perceive, but he could clearly feel the discordant spatial dislocation effect that had "expanded" a large area of space on the platform. However, the central area of the space expansion was empty, and it looked like an empty space. However, there was an inconspicuous little house in the corner of the Guanyun Terrace, and a signboard of a courier collection point was hung on it...
No matter how you look at it, that small house cannot possibly be No. 66 Wutong Road.
Zhenren Yuan Ling retracted his gaze and noticed that there was a young man with a strange face standing next to Yu Sheng.
He looked him up and down for a moment and could see that the young man was truly a human being - flesh and blood, spirit and form, from the inside out, a very standard...ah, a human being.
The old man was suddenly surprised: "Who is this..."
Zheng Zhi was sweating profusely at this time. He was a temporary worker in the Secret Service Bureau who was not even a formal agent (and had not passed the probation period). He had never seen such a scene before. When he opened his mouth, he felt his back teeth cramping: "I... I..."
He kept saying "I" for a long time but couldn't say anything. Irene was getting anxious and just shouted for him, "Security at the door!"
Zhenren Yuan Ling was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the express collection point not far away.
Irene reacted faster this time: "Security booth!"
"Actually, the Secret Service assigned me... um, a sentry, and he's also my friend in private," Yu Sheng said a little awkwardly. He didn't know how to explain that he had moved to another sentry post, so he could only follow Irene's words and say vaguely, "That house is a sentry post of the Secret Service, usually disguised as a courier collection point."
"Yes," Zheng Zhi also reacted at this time and nodded quickly, "Our captain arranged for me to stand guard for Brother Yu."
"Oh, I see." Yuan Ling Zhenren stroked his beard and didn't seem to think much about it. He just nodded to Sheng, "Since you are my friend, you are also a guest of Qianfeng Lingshan. A welcoming banquet has been set up in the Xianzhuan Hall. Come with me."
Hu Li's eyes immediately lit up: "Is dinner ready?!"
"Yes, let's eat." Yu Sheng saw that no one was asking him about moving the Secret Service outpost here, so he quickly changed the subject, "Let's go, let's eat first. I'm really hungry from moving..."
Zheng Zhi seemed to want to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he was dragged over by Yu Sheng and stepped onto the stone path away from Guanyuntai...
…
Deep in Wutong Road, next to the "original coordinates of No. 66 Wutong Road" which has become a narrow corner at the end of the street, Li Lin stood blankly in the corner holding a supermarket shopping bag.
He looked at the corner of the street in front of him, then looked back at the small empty space behind him that seemed a bit out of place, and stood there to start thinking about life.
Where is my workstation?
How come I went to the supermarket to buy something and when I came back, my workstation was gone?! After turning around twice with the plastic bag in his hand and confirming that it was not because of his poor eyesight but that the entire "outpost" had really disappeared, Li Lin finally twitched his lips, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and called his boss.
"Captain, I'm Li Lin... Uh, no, Zheng Zhi is fine, but it's not like there's no problem either. He's gone. Don't worry, the outpost is gone too..."
The cry of “What?!” coming from the other end of the phone was extremely penetrating.
"I don't know what happened," Li Lin said to the phone with tears in his eyes, "I went out to buy something and when I came back the outpost was gone, and No. 66 Wutong Road was gone too..."
After a while, the anxious Song Cheng rushed to Wutong Road through the "shortcut".
The two looked at each other.
After a while, Song Cheng started making a phone call.
"I found out after asking," Song Cheng raised his head and said to Li Lin with a subtle look, "Yu Sheng packed up and moved away."
"Why?" Li Lin looked confused.
"My hand slipped," Song Cheng felt a little pain in his teeth, "just like the last time I dragged you into the Night Valley - the difference is that this time you escaped, but Zheng Zhi was dragged over."
Li Lin was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "What should I do? My work report..."
"What else can we do? It's force majeure," Song Cheng sighed and patted Li Lin on the shoulder. "Come on, come back to the bureau with me. I have another mission. You should continue to go out with me before we return to No. 66 Wutong Road."
Li Lin: “…”
