Chapter 421 Conversation

Hearing this, I stared at that person, he was quite right, since this village is the headquarters of the Eighth Office, and as a member of the Eighth Office, he can naturally appear here, not to mention that he The Eighth Office's status is not low, it is the captain of the Shura team.

So, I smiled slightly, relieved, and said with a smile: "Captain Peng, didn't you let me go to Changsha after the next year?"

Captain Peng smiled, shook his clothes, took out a pack of cigarettes, threw it towards me, and said with a smile: "It is true that you are asked to go to Changsha. Now that you have come to the headquarters of the Eighth Office, you are also exempted from going to Changsha." , isn’t this killing two birds with one stone?”

Well, he said that, what else can I say, so I tightened the package in my hand and asked him: "Captain Peng, I..."

Before I could finish speaking, he gave up and said softly, "Dongchuan, don't ask anything, don't say anything, just follow me."

I groaned and didn't speak any more. I lit a cigarette and followed him while smoking.

Soon, Captain Peng led me into a thatched hut. What surprised me was that the decoration inside the hut could not be described as magnificent. The most surprising thing was that from the outside, the hut was only about thirty Come square.

However, after entering the house, I found that it was about [-] square meters, conservatively estimated at about [-] square meters.

Just when I was in a daze, Captain Peng pulled me and said with a smile: "Okay, don't look at it, this is my room, if you have anything to say, just ask, and don't worry about the walls having ears."

After all, he led me to a tea table, first he pulled a stool for me, then sat on a grand chair, and started tinkering with the tea set.

Although I don't know much about tea, I can still tell that his tea set is definitely expensive, especially the teacup, which looks like it was polished with emerald.

After looking at it for a while, I came back to my senses slightly, put the package on the side of the stool, and then asked Captain Peng, "Captain, when I entered the village, why did I see two names on the archway, one is The eighth office, the other is some kind of ghost village."

Captain Peng was fiddling with the tea set in his hand and said with a smile: "It's very simple. Our Eighth Office is different from ordinary villages, and the names will naturally be different. Strictly speaking, there are nine names on the archway. Everyone who comes to see The names I got were all different, but you are so weird, you can actually see two names."

I was taken aback, and I didn't understand what he meant. What do you mean there are nine names.

I asked this doubt, and Captain Peng told me that the archway was created by gathering the wisdom of all the people in the Eighth Office. Village, Facai Village, Fuqi Village, Longevity Village, Xueye Village and Business Village.

When different people approach this village, the names they see will be completely different, just like some people who want to see progress in their careers, the name they see in their eyes will become a career village, and those who want to live longer, see We arrived at Changshou Village.

What he said really overturned my three views. There is such a magical plaque in the world.

I muttered something in my heart, but without asking, I heard Captain Peng tell me that people who come to this place in general, if they are not people from the Eighth Office, will be blocked from entering. Only people from the eighth office can lead the way in.

Speaking of this, he told me that ordinary people don't even have the chance to see this archway.

This aroused my curiosity, so I asked him why.

He said that a large formation was set up one kilometer away, and ordinary people could not see it at all.

Well, it's right to think about it. The Eighth Office itself has recruited strange people from all over the world. Presumably, there are also a lot of metaphysicians who can form a formation.

At the moment, I didn't bother with this matter anymore, so I asked him, "Captain Peng, if the people in the eighth office, what did they see?"

Captain Peng smiled, handed the prepared teacup to me, and said with a smile, "Well, it varies from person to person. As I saw, the name is the Eighth Office, and what Team Leader Wang Jiong said What I saw seemed to be Fuqi Village, as for some other people, I didn't ask in detail, after all, people, who don't have a little secret in their hearts, but you, kid, actually saw two names, it's really weird."

"Strange?" I picked up the teacup and took a sip. The tea melted in my mouth, accompanied by a hint of sweetness.

Seeing that I drank the tea, Captain Peng took the empty teacup and said in a low voice, "Do you know that 80 years have passed since this archway was hung there, and no one has seen the two names. As for the specific reason , but I don’t know, I’m afraid only those old guys above know.”

I stared at him closely, it didn't seem like I was lying, and yes, it was just such a little thing, there was no need for him to lie to me.

At the moment, I was not polite to him, and asked him a few more questions, all about the headquarters of the Eighth Office, for example, why I saw a hut outside, but the inside of the room was extremely luxurious.

He explained to me that in life, one should enjoy what one should enjoy, and the reason why people work hard is to enjoy. He also told me that there are nine houses in the headquarters of the Eighth Office, eight of which are It belongs to the captain, and the remaining one belongs to those old men.

This aroused my curiosity. When I went to the village first, I deliberately counted the houses. It seemed that there were only eight houses, and I didn't see the ninth house at all.

I asked this question out.

He laughed and said, "I'll tell you, only our captain can see the ninth house. You... are not qualified yet."

When I heard this, I gave him an annoyed look, and chatted with him for a while. It was all about trivial matters. As for how I got here and why what happened on the train, I never talked to Peng. The captain speaks out.

To put it bluntly, I was waiting for Captain Peng to take the initiative to mention this matter, and my intuition told me that no matter what happened on the train or coming here, there is absolutely an inseparable relationship with Captain Peng.

Just like that, the two of us chatted without saying a word.

I don't know how long we talked, but I knew that during this period, Captain Peng changed the teapot three times, and my stomach was full of tea.

"Dongchuan, how long are you going to hold it?" Captain Peng tore a bag of tea leaves again, poured them into the teapot, poured boiling water, shook the teapot a few times, poured the tea on the tea tray, and poured boiling water again .

I understand what he means, he is testing me.

I smiled and pretended to be puzzled: "What are you holding back?"

He raised his head slowly, glanced at me meaningfully, and said with a smile, "What do you think?"
