"We fought a bad fight." Wang Jiyuan stood in the bright conference room and slapped him on the table. The palm was not heavy, but everyone felt that the table seemed to be depressed by half an inch. Like everyone in the room, he wore a military training uniform with no epaulets, but anyone could feel it. He firmly grasped the atmosphere of the conference room. Wherever his eyes were swept, people would bow their heads involuntarily.
However, when he saw Ji Yijun, Ji Yijun bit his lip and met his gaze without flinching. He was like a little tiger who would never be afraid of learning, and gritted his teeth at the lion king in the forest.
"Reluctant to admit it?" Wang Jiyuan looked directly at Yijun this season, his voice deeper, "Don't think that some little girls treat you as 'heroes', you will be proud. You are not worthy."
There was some commotion in the room, and obviously somehow felt uncomfortable with Wang Jiyuan's words. Since the battle, the guards have become more and more popular. Some boys who have played bachelors all their lives find their girlfriends unexpectedly. Here, the mighty and capable person in the eyes of his girlfriend was devalued.
"Why doesn't it deserve?" Ji Yijun finally couldn't hold back, "We protected them!"
"Protection? Yeah, but what price did we pay, you should be clear! We mastered the hot weapon, but was crushed and beaten by a group of bandits with bows and sabers! We occupied the high wall, but were killed by those guys Inside! Do n’t listen to the command, act arbitrarily, chaotic tactics, hesitate to catch the enemy, and even send out a lot of deserters. This is the performance of our team! Everyone knows that this is by no means casual.
No one on the scene understood the heaviness of the price better than Ji Yijun. He felt bored, and he couldn't say much of the rebuttal.
Wang Jiyuan counted the various problems in the battle. When everyone was said to be blushing, he turned his head and said, "Of course, the biggest responsibility lies with me. Since it is my team, your fault, in the final analysis, is My fault."
Ji Yijun didn't expect the other party to attribute the error to himself. From Wang Jiyuan's eyes, he saw an unexplained emotion, like regret and hope intertwined.
"And I will never be wrong twice on the same problem! This time, we are lucky to have all kinds of foreign help, so we are alive and the enemy is dead, giving us the opportunity to correct our mistakes. However, this There will never be a good thing next time. If you make such a mistake next time, it may be you, me, and someone who is hiding behind us and needs our protection. Do you understand? "
"Understood." Everyone spoke in unison.
"There is not much time for you. I will leave in three days to destroy the goblin tribes in the forest. These goblins have caused great losses to the surrounding villagers since they moved here a while ago. The villagers hope we can shelter them. Now Our team has already absorbed some locals. This incident can remove the hidden dangers of their villages and let them go with us at ease. So this is the first step to unite the surrounding villages and towns. The committee does not want to make any mistakes. "
"Head of the team, we have been stepping up training recently. Those guys are more decent than before. I won't give you any more chains." Li Tianrui said, "In the final analysis, this is a backward era, and we have a great advantage."
Wang Jiyuan chuckled: "A backward era? You look at history to know that this era is cannibalistic."
After the meeting, Ji Yijun sent Huang Zheng away and asked him to step up to practice the team, but he went to the laboratory building. After that battle, he never took the initiative to find Morey. Because every time he saw the figure in a white coat, there seemed to be a lot of bites in his heart. He knew that Morey was not wrong that day, but who said that he could not hate a person if he was right?
Today, however, Ji Yijun hesitated for a while, but still set foot on the stairs leading up.
There is a weird smell in the laboratory building, coupled with the dim walkway, it looks a bit gloomy, not only who pays attention to it, but a few oil lamps are lit on the walls on both sides, and the light and shadow shake, adding a bit of a strange atmosphere .
A distant figure came slowly as I remembered the tapping of high heels in the distance. Ji Yijun couldn't see her face clearly, so he asked, "Who is in front?"
The figure didn't answer, but still kept the original frequency step by step.
Click, click, click, click ...
The sound was getting louder and louder. Ji Yijun even asked a few times without any response. It was like talking to a shadow. Could it be that there are female ghosts in this world? Rao is that he has always been bold, and Mao has also started in his heart at this time.
When the man was only five or six meters away from him, the dim light shone on her face, and Ji Yijun recognized that it was Morey's partner Wu Jingrong.
"Are you a woman, deaf? Isn't pretending to scare me?"
"Yo, this kind of horse can still speak human language, which is really strange." Wu Jingrong covered her mouth gently with her hand and said with a smile.
"You ..., how to curse people?"
"What's wrong with you? Shouldn't you scold for the good things you do these days? I don't know how many girls cry for you while covering your quilt. Even Ye Zi was angry."
"I said that she didn't take care of me these days, it turned out to be jealous." Ji Yijun pretended to be a heartless.
"Go to you. Ye Zi can look at you? You don't despise you. You pedal on N boats and play with people's feelings." Wu Jingrong threw his hand like a fly, and wanted to drive Ji Yijun away.

"Everyone is an adult. If we say that, we will not talk about feelings or responsibilities. Everything is what you want, what's wrong?" Ji Yijun said annoyed.
"The problem is that before you speak sweet words next time, it is best to announce how many girlfriends you have. You are now the public enemy of several bedrooms, so you can do it yourself." Wu Jingrong said this, and left without looking at him. By the way, Ji Yijun was left in a daze.
Dirty, this woman is unreasonable, he secretly said to himself. But somehow, he couldn't calm down. He couldn't help wondering when he became like this? He recalled the experience of wanton flower bushes in the past two weeks. A feeling of shame floated from the bottom of his heart, and soon sweated his forehead, as if walking on the street and suddenly found that he was not wearing clothes.
Ji Yijun recovered, and found that he had unconsciously walked through the doorway of Morey's room.
The door is half-covered. There was a man talking to Morey.
"Mr. Morey, look, I am the interpreter accompanying the goblin team. The communication between me and the guide must be the smoothest. You give me that thing, and I will definitely find those two people and fulfill your wish. You can rest assured that I have also caught a magician with my own hands. I will definitely avenge you! "The man said with his hands dancing.
"Mr. Zhang, how do you know I have that thing?" Morech said.
"There are no secrets in school. It is not a bad thing if you want to take revenge. In fact, many people sympathize with you. For example, my thoughts are the same as you. They must pay the price!"
Morey shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Zhang, chasing the enemy is the matter of the guards. Can't you rob them of their work?"
"Their task is to encircle the goblins, but not as free as I am. I have hired two mercenaries in private, and they are good hands! With my own guns, as long as they are found, they will never miss."
"Mr. Zhang, why are you ..."
"I've been taken by them. Those tortured me and used me as a slave. That kind of ghost life ... You don't want to know. The most terrible thing is that they killed me in front of me. Best friend Hong Lifeng! "The man's voice choked, and he wiped his face with his hand." So, my determination to avenge will not be less than you! "
Morey nodded thoughtfully: "I understand, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but that I have promised this thing to others. Look, that person has arrived at the door."
The man turned around and happened to face Ji Yijun.
"Zhang Hong?" Ji Yijun frowned. "Why are you guys here? What do you want Morey to ask?"
There was a burst of red and green on Zhang Hong's face. He looked at Ji Yijun and Mo Lei, as if he had given up, "Forget it, Mr. Mo Lei, I will visit you again next time."
He also ignored Ji Yijun and walked directly to the door. Ji Yijun grabbed Zhang Hong, "Hey, you make it clear, what is this?"
"Let go." Zhang Hong yelled at Ji Yijun's hand, "I'm not as famous as you now. Can you control me? I've caught the magician alive, am I still afraid of you?"
"Who do you want to avenge?"
"Let go! Let me go! Who else besides Ji Xun?"
"You ... want to avenge my dad? Why can't I remember that you are a zealous heart?"
"You can't control it!" Taking advantage of Ji Yijun's stunned moment, Zhang Hong worked hard, shook Ji Yijun's hand away, hurriedly pushed the door and ran out.
Ji Yijun looked at Morey with a puzzled expression.
Morey spread his hand, "It seems that he got the news from where he knew I could sense Orville's whereabouts, so he asked me for this."
Morey pulled a necklace from his pocket, the chain was made of rope, and a small purple crystal was tied to his head. There is white light and shadow flowing in the crystal, sometimes converging into one eye, sometimes turning into a little star.
"I can't feel Orville anymore. The tracking method I used that night can only feel the movement within ten kilometers. They ran out of this range the next day. But the tracking eye I made can be I will trace it for you, there is a little bit of Orville's breath inside. When the eyes turn orange, it means there are traces left by him near you; when the eyes turn red and heat, it means that he himself is in Not far away. "
Ji Yijun took the chain and hung it on his chest, "I will kill them, definitely."
"I believe you can do it." Morey looked at Ji Yijun's cold face. "However, beware of Zhang Hong, he can be strange."
