Chapter 123: Black Box

I cast a sidelong glance at the Dream-eating Tapir and thought to myself, this is probably what the 'Incompetent Fury' looks like.

I wasn't angry at all. I patted it on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Thank you this time."

The dream-eating tapir's little eyes widened and he looked at me in disbelief, as if I was scarier than the slender figure just now.

It now looks like a ghost in red. It stretched out its normal hand and touched my head: "Zhao Rui, is it you? Have you been possessed by something weird? You are actually so polite sometimes, I

I want to see if the sun rises from the west tomorrow..."

I frowned, knocked off its hand, and kicked it: "Stop talking nonsense! It doesn't matter if you are weak. If you dare to curse again, I will slap your nose!"

Dream-eating Tapir covered his nose with one hand and rubbed it until it was the size of a normal person. He covered his chest with the other hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay..."

I couldn't help but laugh angrily. I couldn't be nice to this guy at all. He was really unlucky.

I raised my hand and slapped it on the face, and there was a crisp "pop" sound, which was extremely clear in the dark night.

The dream-eating tapir covered his cheek, moved to the other side, and muttered: "...little bastard..."

I stepped up and kicked it again, and the dream-eating tapir immediately opened its clear eyes, turned up the corners of its mouth, and revealed a ferocious smile, looking like an innocent soul looking for its life in the dark night.

"Little... little brother, what are your orders?"

I ignored it. The dream was not over yet and I could just look around.

I turned around and saw a rest stop not far away.

"Let's go and take a look inside the rest stop."

"What's there to see at the rest stop..." Dream-Eating Tapir muttered to himself, but he also followed me.

There were two off-road vehicles parked in the yard of the rest stop, which we drove here.

This dream was quite realistic, completely replicating today's environment.

The door of the small shop in the rest stop was wide open, and the owner of the rest stop was sitting on a chair, reading the newspaper seriously.

The dream-eating tapir's little eyes moved around, and it secretly tugged at me.

I whispered to the dream-eating tapir: "Be honest."

Then we walked into the small store.

"You're here." The old man put down the newspaper, took off his reading glasses, and slowly wiped them.

I asked probingly: "The boss seems to know that I will come?"

The old man didn't answer. Instead, he took out a tea set from under the counter and poured me a cup of tea: "You've been busy all night, let's have a drink."

I looked at the dark red liquid in the tea cup and drank it without hesitation.

It's not unpleasant to drink, and it's not like tea. It's sour and sweet with a strong bitterness, but... it tastes more like bitter sugar!

"This is... blood essence?!"

There was some appreciation in the old man's cloudy eyes: "I know a lot. Don't worry, it won't do you any harm. It can offset some of the side effects of the demon pill."

I didn't ask the old man why he knew I had taken the demon pill.

I cupped my fists with both hands and bowed to the old man: "Thank you very much, boss."

The old man looked at me, then at the dream-eating tapir behind me, and couldn't help but laugh: "You can even conquer this thing, which is pretty good. If not..."

The old man hesitated to speak, then changed the subject: "During the day, you asked me who among you was unusual, but I didn't tell you because those people were looking at you. Now I can tell you

Last one or two..."

"What does the boss want me to do?"

The old man glanced at me: "Smart. You enter Lop Nur with this box, put it on the third stone pillar, leave within a quarter of an hour, and don't look back."

The old man took out a black suitcase with a snake pattern on it and bright metal buckles, which looked very delicate.

"Is there a stone pillar in Lop Nur? What if I hadn't seen it?"

The old man showed a mysterious smile: "If I don't meet you, I will keep it myself and treat it as a gift from me."

"Inside here..."

"Don't be curious. There are many people who die from curiosity."

I narrowed my eyes slightly: "Could there be drugs in this? Do you want to transport drugs through me?"

The old man was stunned, and then he laughed so hard that tears fell from his eyes.

The dream-eating tapir was shaking its head from side to side, its nose suddenly lengthened, and it was swaying from side to side.

They are laughing at me.

I looked serious and serious: "There is Wang Liqing in the team, he is a policeman, and I am a good law-abiding citizen..."

The old man stopped laughing and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: "You are interesting, kid. Are you saying that you are a good citizen who specializes in killing and protecting animals?"

"I am doing harm to the people."

"Okay, don't worry, it's not drugs or wild animals. If you help me make this trip, I won't use you in vain. When you leave Lop Nur, I can tell you something about Gong Yiyu."

My pupils shrank, my face darkened, and I looked straight at the old man.

The old man was calm and said slowly: "If I tell you, I will also put myself in danger. You will not lose if you exchange a convenient thing for top-secret information."

My voice was hoarse: "Okay."

The dream-eating tapir's little eyes moved around, its nose drooped, and it was unclear what it was thinking.

The old man handed the box to my hand, and I took it.

"Remember, you can't open it, otherwise the transaction will be invalid."

I lowered my head and looked at this ordinary box. It was light in my hand, and the combination lock on the box fit perfectly.

What exactly is inside?

I nodded to the old man and said, "Tell me, what else is unusual among our group?"

The old man lit a cigarette and said slowly: "Some people can look like anyone, but they can't change their height and body shape; some people say everything is true, but they are not credible because they can't change their height and body shape.

What I say is what I think is true; some people have more than one identity; some people have special physiques..."

"Who are they?"

"You have to guess for yourself. What I said will be given to you as a deposit. You need to fight for the news about Gong Yiyu yourself."

I looked at the old man with burning eyes and cursed in my heart.

What a useless white wolf. After talking for a long time, it was like saying nothing. Instead, he asked me to do things for him.

Haha, after entering the desert, he didn’t know what I was like. Even if I met the stone pillar, I would treat it as if I hadn’t met it. After leaving Lop Nur with the box, if I told him that I completed the mission, he would definitely not be able to go in and take a look.

If he could enter Lop Nur, he wouldn't have let me take this trip.

It only took a moment for these thoughts to pass through my mind. I twitched my lips and showed a kind smile: "Then it's settled."
