Walking on the streets of Zuoyuan Town, it is easy to find that all the buildings in this town are new, and every restaurant and shop has no trace of erosion by the years, and the whole town is full of new ideas.

In fact, this Zuoyuan Town, located in the east of the center of Chiliyuan, was built in the last 30 to 30 years. [-] years ago, this place was a red wasteland, except for the regular photos of the sun and the moon, and occasional wind and sand. Patronage, this place is as quiet as a dry well that has been abandoned for hundreds of years.

This is the place where the former found the ruins of the witch curse village in 32.

Looking at this new town, Wu Maxi was filled with disappointment. In fact, he wanted to see the desolation of this place 30 years ago. That was the scene where Taiyin fought. These new towns caught people off guard The changes made him unable to imagine the situation where the front desk was hidden here 30 years ago.

In the center of the town there is a huge building called the Chili Branch of the Daxing Artistic Conception Research Institute.

This courtyard is the earliest and most core building in Zuoyuan Town. It was built by the North Hall of Daxingdian. It is one of the many artistic conception research institutes in Daxingdian. The establishment of this research institute is to excavate and study nearby. Documentation of the ruins of the witch village.

After arriving in Zuoyuan Town, Wu Maxi calculated according to the map for a long time, and finally confirmed one thing helplessly. The point on the map of Gaoqian Lake happened to be in the very center of this research institute.

Yesterday evening, Wu Maxi wandered outside this house for a long time, and then saw an advertisement for recruiting researchers at the door, Wu Maxi thought for a long time, and finally made up her mind: "This is it."

When I came together this morning, I realized that the recruitment scene was really lively. The vast number of candidates lined up from the entrance of the institute to the end of the street. Unfortunately, Wu Maxi, who rushed over, was at the end of the line.

In front of Wumaxi was a scruffy middle-aged man in his 40s, wearing a long gown that is extremely rare in Northwest China, standing out from the crowd.It was a pity that the gown hadn't been washed for decades, it was dirty, and it exuded a strange sour smell, which instantly killed the fresh air in the morning.

"How many times have you taken the exam?" The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Wu Maxi, and when he opened his mouth, he had a menacing bad breath.

Wu Maxi held her breath and looked at him suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

"Let me ask you, how many times have you taken the exam?" The middle-aged man moved closer, and while increasing his tone, his tone also increased.

"First time." Wu Maxi leaned back slightly.

"Rookie!" The middle-aged man put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly and closed his eyes, looking like an expert.

"How many times have you taken the exam?" Wu Maxi couldn't help asking.

The middle-aged man didn't open his eyes, but stretched out four pitch-black fingers.

"Four times?" Wu Maxi asked tentatively.

"Hmph!" The middle-aged man showed a disdainful smile, "More than 400 times."

More than 400 times!

What is the concept of more than 400 times?

The admissions exam is held once a week, which means that the man in front of him has been taking the exam for at least seven or eight years.

Old fritters in the examination room!

"Uh, sir, is this exam really so difficult?" Looking at the misery of the middle-aged man in front of her, Wu Maxi couldn't help but feel worried about her own future.

"Want to know?" The middle-aged man was finally willing to open his eyes.

"Please sir, don't hesitate to enlighten me."

"Hmm!" The middle-aged man remained silent for a long time after saying this word.

When Wu Maxi looked carefully, she saw two black fingers of the middle-aged man rubbing each other in front of him.

It turns out that there is a fee for benefits, and it is no wonder that the economy will inevitably be in distress if you don't do anything else for seven or eight years and just take exams.

Wu Maxi took a gold coin and threw it to him.

The middle-aged man took it, looked at it under the sunlight for a long time, finally felt relieved, put the gold coin in his arms, and said inscrutablely: "Do you know who is recruited in this exam?"

"Isn't it an artistic conception researcher?"

"Joke, who am I, Lin Fu? I'm just a researcher of artistic conception. How can I see it in my eyes."

"Then who is recruited for this exam?"

"Mentor." Lin Fu showed a confident and mysterious smile on his face, "The reason why this research institute was established is to excavate the documents of the ruins of the witch curse village. How long can the documents of the entire ruins of the witch curse village be dug? After the excavation is completed? What about this institute?"

Wu Maxi shook her head, expressing that she didn't know.

"I got the exact news that within ten years, this place will be transformed into an artistic conception college. The researchers recruited now will be the tutors of this college in the future." Lin Fu's voice became weaker and weaker, making Wu Maxi very passive , I don't know whether it is better to be close or not to be close.

"Are you sure?" Wu Maxi leaned back to avoid the attack of his body odor.

Lin Fu stood proudly, and said, "Look at the scale of this research institute. It covers an area of ​​[-] mu. Is there any research institute with such a large scale? It was built entirely as an artistic conception institute." He used a A pitch-black finger pointed at the research institute in front, with a bold posture, as if Gu Zizang, who had just entered the northwest, pointed at the barbarian Goulian.

"No wonder so many people come to take the exam." Wu Maxi nodded, expressing her understanding, "How many people does this research institute recruit every week?"

"From the beginning of this year to now, only three people have been recruited." Lin Fu's eyes were vicissitudes, deep and hurt.

"Brother Lin, you are wrong. This year, we recruited not three people, but four people." A sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked head poked out from the front, standing hunched like a monkey, turning a pair of mouse-like little ones. His eyes fixed on Wu Maxi.

"Shen Tuli, don't bully me. Lin is familiar with this year's recruitment list, where did he get the fourth one?"

The middle-aged man named Shen Tuli smiled, squinting his eyes and pretending to be reserved.

Lin Fu snorted coldly, turned his head and stood with his hands behind his back.

Wu Maxi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, she looked at Shen Tuli's hands, and sure enough, she saw his two withered fingers rubbing each other in front of her body.

These two are really...

Wu Maxi was speechless, took out another gold coin and threw it to Shentuli.

Shen Tuli took it, turned his head to observe the sunlight for a moment, put it back into his arms, and said: "Three days ago at dusk, I was checking the Feng Shui test site near here, and I saw a green chariot coming from the street, and the driver was a The man in black. The green chariot stopped at the entrance of the research institute, and a beautiful girl in green clothes came down from it. The girl gave something to the guard. After the guard went in to report, he came out and gave the girl to Please go in. About half an hour later, the girl came out again, said something to the man in black, and then the man in black left. I waited outside this door until midnight, that girl, again He didn't come out either." Shen Tuli looked at Lin Fu after finishing speaking, with a tacit expression on his face.

"Three days ago, that wasn't the day of the exam!" Lin Fu was a little puzzled, and then he realized, "Shady, shady!"

Wumaxi was dumbfounded.

"It's too dark, this world is too dark." Lin Fu was incoherent with excitement, his body trembling like a pendulum, "Such a sacred exam, there is such a dirty behind-the-scenes transaction, it's too dark, God, this is too dark !"

"Old Lin, be careful! This kind of thing is very common." Shen Tuli was quite open-minded.

"Let me just say, with my talent and knowledge, Lin, how could I fail the exam for eight years? My God, this is too dark!" Lin Fu stood in the field dancing nervously, savoring the lethality and coverage The power has directly increased by three levels, and Wu Maxi had to take a few steps away from him.

"The exam is on!" With a beast-like roar ahead, the crowd began to move forward slowly.

Shen Tuli immediately followed the flow of people.Wumaxi saw that Lin Fu hadn't moved for a long time, so she was about to pass him, but Lin Fu suddenly turned her head, stared at Wumaxi coldly, and said viciously, "What are you doing?"

Wu Maxi was too lazy to quarrel with him, so she took a few steps back and distanced herself from him.

"It's too dark to actually want to jump in line!" Lin Fu murmured, keeping up with the pace of the team.

The team moved quickly, and soon saw the gate of the examination room.

When it was Lin Fu's turn to go in, the guy kept staring at the tall guard at the entrance of the examination room, as if he was going to eat people.

The doorman was stared at inexplicably by him, and by the time he realized it, the other party had already entered the examination room.The guard had nowhere to vent his anger, turned around and saw Wu Maxi, and immediately found someone to vent his anger on, pointed a huge index finger at Wumaxi's nose and shouted: "You don't want to take the exam, do you? If you don’t want to take the exam, get out of here!”

Wumaxi, who had been chasing corpses for more than ten years, had never seen any kind of scene, so how could he take his words to heart, pass by like no one else, and enter the examination room as if nothing had happened.

The guard had nowhere to focus after having a fit, and was so depressed that he trembled all over his body.
