Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 738 Top Secret Operation
Yazai said with some embarrassment: "Just because of this, you can't go."

I shrugged and said nonchalantly, you can assume that I am missing.

After I finished speaking, I stopped looking at Yazai and walked back step by step.

The cold snow fell on my face. I looked up and saw that the sky had changed. The sky that had been clear just now had completely darkened. The snow as heavy as goose feathers hit my face. It was so cold that I felt like I was the only one in the world.

Yazai said happily: "Look, even God is keeping you, that's all right, don't be impulsive."

I glanced at him, then walked on in silence.

Why is God staying? Do you really think I will believe this?
Yazai didn't follow up again, but his words of persuasion still sounded behind me.I don’t want to listen anymore, in fact, I’m not impulsive, and if Lao Yan doesn’t trust me, I must be very embarrassed in 701, because he is the director, whether it’s the boy or other members, I must listen to him Order.

what about me?
At that time, every task Lao Yan will marginalize me, and I will have no meaning of existence at all.

So I have no choice but to leave 701.

If Lao Yan is at the same level as Yazai, then it doesn't matter how much you reject me, I can at least dedicate myself, but what can I do now?

So I didn't look back, just walked down the mountain slowly under the wind and snow.

Because there is no task in me, I don't care which way to go down the mountain, so I don't follow the route when I came here.

After walking for about half an hour, I squatted on the ground, watching the snowflakes falling one after another, and felt that the past few years seemed to be living in a dream.

Why is it?
In less than half a day, what happened to make Lao Yan change from extreme trust in me to such distrust?
Even my leaving 701 wasn't a big deal to him.

Maybe my leaving is still a good thing for him?
I smiled wryly. On the way from Bayingoleng to Yanjing, I was already a person without an ID card. From that moment on, I was a shady existence serving the country, but now?

These years I have been born and died, but in the end, what have I gained?
From now on, I can only live in the dark. A person without identity can't live a dignified life, can't he?
The snow slowly stopped, the sun came out from the clouds, I looked up at the dazzling sunlight, and sneered, I am afraid that I will never see such sunshine again in the days to come...

Forget it, let's go.

I stood up again, no matter what, I always have to live, and it would be ugly to feel sorry for myself here.

It's afternoon now, if I'm fast enough, I should be able to reach the foot of the mountain before night falls, and then I'll just find a place to rest for the night, and then I'll find a way out of Qinghai.

The thoughts in my mind jumped, and I smiled helplessly. Speaking of which, I was still not too sad, and I even thought about how to live the future in my mind.

Wasn't my father the same way back then?He took me to live in seclusion in a village. If I hadn't dug up the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, he should be able to enjoy his old age in peace and security.

"Chang'an."

Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind, and I just felt that I heard it wrong.

So I didn't care, and walked straight forward, but after that, I heard another sound, and my name was indeed called.

When I turned my head, I saw him looking at me lovingly, as if the tense atmosphere just now didn't exist.

"Old Smoke..."

I murmured out, why did he appear here?
When I left, no one else followed, even Yazai stopped, because they also understood why I chose to leave.

Lao Yan didn't express at all at that time, when did he secretly follow behind me?

I yelled, and he smiled at me, treating me like a father as always.

"Don't ask anything from now on, just follow this route, and after a day, you will understand everything." Lao Yan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and gave it to me. I opened it and knew that the paper was in a panic It was drawn under the circumstances, but at any rate, the direction can be clearly distinguished.

I looked at him puzzled, and he shook his head at me, still signaling me not to ask anything.

"Chang'an, you won't let me down, right?" He spoke again.

I don't know which one is the real him, but from the bottom of my heart, I still hope that the one in front of me is him, not that he came to deliberately ridicule me.

But after he finished speaking these words, he began to quickly instruct me on some safety matters, and I realized that he was not framing me, but that he really had a secret mission for me to do.

"Lao Yan, I..." I wanted to say something, but couldn't say it. First, I felt guilty that I didn't trust him enough, and second, I was indignant at how Lao Yan handled it.

If I couldn't think about it just now, what is he going to do?
Lao Yan should have seen my thoughts, he patted me on the shoulder: "I trust you and know that you can bear these setbacks."

I broke down suddenly, shook my head and said, no, I can't bear it, I can't bear such a setback at all!
Lao Yan smiled and said nothing, obviously not believing it.

"I've finished giving instructions, and it's up to you, Chang'an, you are the leader of the future 701 team, but I can't be the only one who can see your ability, understand?" His tone was serious.

I know what he means, I have to prove to other people, especially the higher authorities, that I can do it.

Lao Yan turned and left, his speed was very fast, and he disappeared from my sight in a blink of an eye.I frowned, if it wasn't for the piece of paper in my hand, I really thought it was just a hallucination.

Why do I have to switch routes in this way?

I was a little puzzled. The first thing I thought of was that there was a traitor in the team, but then I denied it. It's impossible. We are the core members of 701. Even if there are forces who want to infiltrate, they will not be able to infiltrate.

Because the reason why we are loyal to 701 is to defend the national treasure from the bottom of our hearts, not for any other reason.

I opened the paper and looked at it carefully again, and the doubts in my mind became more obvious.

This route looks complicated, but in fact it is still walking around our previous route, which is equivalent to walking around their periphery.

I looked over and over again and couldn't figure out what Lao Yan's intentions were, but time didn't allow me to think about it any longer. After I calmed down a little, I started on the road again.

Fortunately, Lao Yan still remembered to bring my equipment, otherwise I would not have the confidence to walk across the snow-capped mountains with the things I was wearing just now!

I didn't feel it when I was with everyone before, but now I am alone, I really feel the grandeur of the Kunlun Mountains. Walking in it alone is like an ant.

I carried a backpack and explored the road with an ice pick, as if I was traveling alone.

I'm not in a hurry, as Lao Yan said, my task is to walk to the place he marked on the map tomorrow afternoon, the total distance is only a few tens of miles, one day and one night is enough.

I wanted to rush there as soon as possible, but Lao Yan said, it doesn't matter if it's too early or too late, you must arrive at the moment before night falls.

This request is very weird, but seeing Lao Yan's serious look, I can't say anything, so I can only agree.

So I walked slowly, thinking over every word Lao Yan said along the way.

He gave a lot of instructions, and even made me pay attention not to freeze, which sounded like homely words.

Some of these words are what he really wants to say, and some are what he said to confuse me or others. In short, it took about a few minutes, and I was slowly picking up these words along the way.

Although Lao Yan's order sounded a bit unbelievable, but my mood was much more relaxed.

At least, I'm still a member of 701, Lao Yan still trusts me!

Thinking of this, I even laughed, but then I was afraid that the sound would come out, so I covered my mouth again.
