Chapter 26
Li Yang received his first silk banner in his life with ease.
He thought back to that night and it seemed like he had done nothing.
"Go get it now?" Li Yang had to tilt her head slightly to meet the man's gaze.
Zhou Du's eyes were full of understanding. "Well, I'll drive you there. There's no location tracking there."
"Okay, I'll go change my clothes."
When Li Yang changed into a dark blue sweater and opened the door, Zhou Du had also changed his clothes.
The weather was getting colder, and the man was wearing a dark windbreaker, which made him look tall and slender, especially his straight legs, which were unnaturally long.
When Li Dongqiang saw them like this, he knew they were going out, "I want to go too!"
"The place we go to, the monsters will never come back." Zhou Du threatened.
Although Li Dongqiang didn't know whether it was true or not, he still gave up, "Well, then I won't go at all. I'll play games at home."
The two of them went downstairs. Lu Xiaoguo saw how they were dressed. The young man looked particularly fair in his dark blue sweater. She asked curiously, "Leader, are you going out?"
"Um."
"Then take Li Yang to take an ID photo. He'll need it for his pass. His previous ID photo looks too small. It's time to change it to a two-inch blue background. Keep an electronic file. The staff column at the entrance of our kindergarten hasn't been replaced yet!"
"good."
The car got on the highway from the northern suburbs of the city and drove to the east of the city. On a narrow fruit street, we entered a small courtyard. The plaque of the government unit hanging on the door read "Nanjiang City 779 Scientific Research Institute."
Zhou Du and Li Yang got out of the car. Just then, a man walked out of an office holding a thick stack of documents and bumped into Zhou Du. He smiled and said, "Zhou Yuan!"
The man, who was about thirty years old, came over and patted Zhou Du's arm enthusiastically: "What brings you here?"
Zhou Du smiled, "The wind of the banner."
The man was surprised: "You are the driver who took away all the 77 evil spirits of the criminal without causing any casualties?" The man cast his eyes on Li Yang next to him, and happily wanted to pat Li Yang's arm: "Boy! You have a bright future! How did you do it?"
Zhou Du blocked the man's hand and said, "Okay, Brother Hong, let's get down to business."
"Oh, right, right," Brother Hong suddenly realized, "I have to go to the document room to sort out the files. You guys can go directly to the director's office."
Brother Hong looked at the information in his hand, scratched his ear and walked away.
Zhou Du led Li Yang up the stairs to the second floor, turned right and walked straight.
The place where the 779 Institute is located is a bit quiet in a busy city. The decoration is very old, like the cement buildings from the 1990s and 2000s. Behind the small courtyard is the formal large courtyard, which is two stories high but covers a large area.
Every time he passed a door, Li Yang looked up at the sign above it.
Specimen room, surrendered tool room, goblin archive room...
No wonder Zhou Du threatened Li Dongqiang that monsters cannot come to this place. If they come, they will be made into specimens.
Walking to the end, Zhou Du turned left to the director's office at the bottom and knocked on the door. Li Yang stopped behind him.
"Come in." A deep male voice came out.
Zhou Du pushed open the door and saw a fat middle-aged man sitting inside. He was bigger than Liang Tang and was smoking a cigarette. When he saw it was Zhou Du, he put out his cigarette.
"Xiao Zhou! You're here so quickly!" The middle-aged man stood up and said, "Sit anywhere you want."
"Wang Suo, long time no see." Zhou Du sat on the mahogany bench by the window and pulled Li Yang over to sit with him.
"Well, you know it's been a while since we last met." Director Wang brewed a pot of tea, poured two cups, and placed them on the coffee table in front of them.
Li Yang said, "Thank you."
"Is this the little hero who surrendered the seventy-seven evil spirits? Not bad, not bad." Director Wang took a sip of tea, "Little, little..."
Zhou Du: "Li Yang."
"Comrade Xiao Li, um." Director Wang blew the hot air on the teacup, "How did you deal with those evil spirits?"
Li Yang said simply: "He has been sent to the underworld."
Zhou Du added: "He is an intern."
Director Wang likes to use interjections: "Wow, your kindergarten is full of hidden talents."
"Can you tell me the details? I'd really like to hear them."
Li Yang thought about it and started from the story of the five people he met at the gate of the abandoned factory.
When Director Wang heard that Li Yang would not let them leave and forced them to stay and continue to summon ghosts, he spat out a mouthful of tea foam, "You are threatening them like this?!"
Li Yang corrected: "It's not a threat, it's a request." He even asked politely "OK?"
"Okay, well, keep going."
The more he talked, the more Director Wang listened, and his expression became more solemn. Then he could no longer hold it in and broke down.
Director Wang could never have imagined that all seventy-seven evil spirits were caught through sting operations, and Li Yang seemed to be the most relaxed one among them.
It really made him want to sigh that the criminal was so stupid that he didn't locate the seventy-seven evil ghosts and didn't even know they were going to the same place. He still thought his post was so popular that so many people were trying out the ghost-summoning technique.
"...Comrade Xiao Li, I have listened to you and I commend you for your wisdom." It seems that there is nothing else to say except this, but there is also something to be said: "Can you please teach our people how to use that paper man..."
Li Yang said: "Paper people tie up ghost ropes."
“Yes, yes, yes.”
"Can."
On the first floor, Director Wang gathered the action team members and lined them up in the courtyard.
"Today, Comrade Xiao Li will teach us how to use paper men to bind ghosts. Everyone listen carefully and practice. Only practice can lead to truth. If you don't understand something, please ask questions in time. If you miss it today, you will have no chance again." Director Wang said as he walked around.
Li Yang was standing nearby, holding a stack of white paper and a pair of scissors, cutting paper figures.
"Yes!" The members of the action team were extremely serious.
"Comrade Xiao Li, it's your turn."
Li Yang held up the paper figure he had cut out and said, "First, you have to use the paper figure you cut out yourself."
The young man's voice was clear and melodious, like the cool breeze of early winter.
He blew on the paper figures, and the two little paper figures stood up.
No one had ever seen a paper figure with such strong yang energy, and they all took a breath.
"Second, remember that if you can do something, the paper figurine can do it too."
Two paper figures floated in the air, and their crudely cut little hands made a few nimble movements, as if casting a spell. Then a red line emitting yang fire connected the palms of the two paper figures, circling in the air and binding the air.
Li Yang: "That's it, it's that simple."
This makes me want to vomit blood.
What do you mean it's that simple! Not to mention that they never thought of using the little paper man to perform a spell, even if they knew, not everyone has such a strong yang energy!
Director Wang walked to Zhou Du, who was standing at the outskirts of the team, and exclaimed: "He's a genius. Train him well."
Zhou Du looked at the black-haired young man's white and soft cheeks and smiled: "I have trained him well and he will take a Tai Chi class every day."
Director Wang was shocked: "One class?! Xiao Zhou! If you can't teach, give the person to me and I will teach him!"
Zhou Du glanced at Chief Wang, and Chief Wang chuckled and said, "It was just a joke. Don't take it so seriously. You're still protecting your kid."
On this side of the team, everyone in the action team was cutting paper with their heads down.
Li Yang was at the head of the group. Seeing someone insisting on cutting a paper figure based on the one he had cut, he walked over and said, "Just follow your own paper figure-cutting habits."
"Okay, okay." The man blushed, changed the paper and cut it again.
The action team still has some ability, they even blew up the paper man.
For a moment, the yard was filled with paper people. Some stood obediently on their owners' hands, some ran all over their owners like children and finally sat on their shoulders, and some flew around so that it was impossible to tell who belonged to whom.
Li Yang inserted a little trick: "You can communicate with your little paper man."
So one boy caught the flying paper man and tried to reason with it: "Ancestor! Can you be quiet?"
Then he was kicked in the face by another little paper man, and he angrily put his hands on his hips and stomped his feet.
Obviously he had recognized the wrong ancestor, and then the boy let go of the other person's paper figurine in his hand and started to coax his own one.
After everyone discussed with their paper figures, they started to cast spells, but almost no one was successful. For the few that did, the positive lines were intermittent.
Li Yang walked over and said, "Trust them. If you can do it, they can do it too."
After hearing this, everyone worked hard and finally succeeded a little bit, but they were troubled:
"My Yang line is so weak, could it be that I can only deal with ordinary spirits, and not powerful ones?"
"Don't mention it. Mine is the same. It's so pale that it's white."
Director Wang said in a loud voice: "I told you not to exercise regularly. When your body is healthy, your Yang energy will be sufficient!"
Everyone clenched their fists and decided to train two more hours every day starting today.
"Okay, after the class, we should give Comrade Xiao Li a banner."
The action team applauded loudly. Director Wang directed Brother Hong who came out of the information room: "Xiao Hong, bring the banner over."
Brother Hong went into the office and copied out the banner.
Li Yang's actions attracted all the people from the two offices. Now all the people from the entire 779 Institute gathered in the courtyard to see Director Wang holding the rolled-up silk banner and handing it to Li Yang.
"Comrade Xiao Li, thank you for your hard work and great achievements. We wish you a bright future!"
Everyone applauded loudly.
Li Yang took the banner and pulled the tail of the banner, only to see two large gold-plated characters printed between the red velvet:
ox
force
?
Director Wang took it back quickly with an embarrassed look on his face, rolled it up, and shouted, "Liao Zhihong, you took the wrong one! Why are you giving your own to others?!"
Brother Hong quickly apologized and went back to the office. This time he checked it carefully before taking it out. "The director guarantees that it is correct this time."
Li Yang opened it and saw eight normal gold-plated characters: Defender of Justice, Conscience of Society.
After the applause, Director Wang called everyone: "Come on, let's take a photo with Comrade Xiao Li."
So Li Yang was pushed to the middle of the first row, with Zhou Du on the left, Director Wang on the right, and a group of people from the action team behind him.
Brother Hong was holding his phone in the front, "Okay, keep smiling, one, two, three!"
With a click.
The action team behind him stopped standing on tiptoe and rubbed their cheeks. Director Wang looked at his watch and said, "Oh, it's time for dinner. Comrade Xiao Li, do you want to eat with me? I'll treat you."
Li Yang wanted to refuse, but Director Wang said, "There's a seafood restaurant nearby. They say the Australian lobsters are very fresh. We can go there."
Li Yang was a little hesitant.
Zhou Du glanced at the distressed young man and made a decision for him, "Then I must slaughter you hard, Wang Suo."
Director Wang laughed out loud.
