Yan Jiucheng heard Master Mei Baojiu's "Ode to Pear Blossoms" several years ago. I remember sitting in the car at that time, music came from the radio. He frowned at that time. This kind of thing was listened to by the old man, and it was like this in his concept at that time.

\tHelplessly, the driver was very happy to hear it and hummed.

\t "What are you singing this? I can't appreciate Peking Opera." Yan Jiucheng asked casually.

\t "I like to listen to Mei Baojiu's "Ode to Pear Blossoms" very much." The driver was wearing a gray magazine with a vicissitudes of life. When he turned around and spoke, his tone was mixed with the smell of smoke and some sauerkraut. Yan Jiuzheng looked at it and put it aside to eat half a bun left. Then he shone in his eyes as he hummed a song: "Don't you like it?"

\t Yan Jiucheng nodded honestly and asked a very basic question: "Who is Mei Baojiu?"

\tThe driver laughed in silence, then shook his head, and said in regretful and emotional words: "The young people nowadays don't know much about our Peking Opera. Do you know Mei Lanfang?"

\tYan Jiucheng nodded.

\t "Mei Baojiu is Mei Lanfang's youngest son. He inherited his father's business and did a good job. This song is called "Ode to Pear Blossoms", which is the theme song of Mei Baojiu's "The Concubine of the Tang Dynasty".

\tA driver who drove a taxi to make a living actually knew so much about Peking Opera, which surprised Yan Jiuzheng.

\tThe driver saw the difference in Yan Jiucheng's eyes and smiled and said, "It's strange, do I know? What's so strange about this? My grandfather likes Peking Opera the most. I've heard it all along. Let me tell you, I didn't like Peking Opera when I was as young as you. Later, I like it as I am, the older you are. I like it too."

\tThe driver's words must have aroused Yan Jiucheng's curiosity. Anyway, he was bored in the car, so he searched Mei Baojiu on his phone and saw a report.

\tMei Baojiu: I only come for one thing in my life.

\tAt that time, Yan Jiucheng didn't understand this sentence very much, but was also moved by it.

\tAnd at this moment, he was lying on the ground of the gate of hell, and seemed to suddenly understand what it means to "be for one thing in one life."

\tIn the past, I just thought that life that could realize this sentence was very casual. I came for one thing in my life, sacrificed a lot, and was so cool. But at this time, Yan Jiucheng listened to the footsteps of his brother's bull's head leaving, and some paper fragments fell on his face. He seemed to have truly felt the meaning and sadness behind this sentence.

\tA lifetime only comes for one thing, and in this lifetime, Yan Jiucheng is probably unrelated to the counter-espionage.

\tThere are too many things to give up.

\tThere are so many that it makes him a little confused.

\tIt's also far more cruel than in the movie.

\tIt went smoothly. At four o'clock, he was thrown into the cabinet where the corpse was transported by the prison guards, covered it with the lid, and piled up with the other two bodies. The man who had just died was stuck in blood, and some of them were slightly penetrated, pouring them into Yan Jiucheng's body from his neck, which made people feel very uncomfortable. The bloody smell in the narrow cabinet and the feeling of touching the intestines that were poked out by his hands, which made people suffocate.

\tJust heard only the sound of the door opening and the sound of the car clanging. Yan Jiucheng understood that he was getting further and further away from the gate of hell.

\tHow many people have been installed in this cabinet? Yesterday's madman and agents were removed from this cabinet. Will there be a bull head be taken out like this in the future? The narrow space and the energy of the gate of hell made Yan Jiuzheng tightly grasp his fist. When he grabbed it, he found that there were still a few pieces of paper in addition to blood in the palm of his hand.

\tThe bull's head tore the pieces of paper full of lyrics thrown on the ground.

—————

It went smoothly and got on the plane in a daze. Yan Jiucheng's hand kept holding the piece of paper in his palm, and the crazy man's finger bone was hanging around his neck, and he didn't speak anyway.

"A lifetime is just for one thing."

This sentence echoed in his mind over and over again, and the tone was not the tone sung by Mei Baojiu, but the "Ode to Pear Blossoms" that Niu Tou sang.

He opened the box, and the stones he picked up during field training and the small plane tag he bought at the airport were lying inside. He put the bloody piece of paper and the piece of finger bone into the small box, took out the stone and looked at it.

During the field training, when facing the lion, I raised the wooden stick in my hand high. At that time, I felt that being able to face such a powerful opponent as the lion was simply majestic.

"Congratulations, you have completed the task." Gu Miqing's voice came from behind, with a hint of admiration. Yan Jiucheng turned his head and found that the deep scar on Gu Miqing's arm was as long as a slap, and there was a needle sewn.

"You..." Not to mention Gu Miqing is a girl, putting it on a man's body is not a minor injury. Although it is a skin injury, skin injury does not mean it does not hurt.

"Save that child, when retreating..." Gu Miqing said unfairly and said no further. This seemed to be worth mentioning to her. She laughed: "The boy's doll is still alive, and the bodies of his mother and sister have also been transported back. They were just cremated yesterday."

As she said that, she took out two photos from her pocket and handed them to Yan Jiuzheng.

"I remake one of his mother's bodies, so I'll keep it as a souvenir for you." Gu Miqing pointed at Yan Jiucheng's box with her mouth: "Don't you like to collect these things?"

Yan Jiucheng took it, one was a photo of the agent's family, and the other was a figure of a little boy hanging on Gu Miqing's body, with a panic on his face but survived.

"How did he arrange it?" Yan Jiucheng touched the photo. From the photo, the boy hugged Gu Miqing's neck tightly, and knew that he was very dependent on Gu Miqing.

"He actually relies on me very much, but..." Gu Miqing had no expression on her face: "I can't take him."

"Why?"

"I may die. If I take him, if I die, he will suffer the harm of the departure of his relatives again." When Gu Miqing said this, it seemed to be talking about other people's lives and stories, without a trace of fear or emotion, he just said the word lightly: Death.

"Then he..."

"Give it to ordinary people to live an ordinary life is the best destination." Gu Miqing said this, her eyes were slightly bent, like crescent moons. She laughed: "This is how you can be happy, isn't it?"

Yan Jiucheng nodded.

After coming out of the Gate of Hell, he agreed with this sentence too much: It’s so good to be ordinary.

"Do you have any doubts?" Gu Miqing looked at Yan Jiucheng seriously.

Yan Jiucheng nodded: "I'm thinking, what can we get if we become a hero? I mean, except for scientists who can save them and scientific research can make the country stronger, what can we get?"

As he said that, he pulled open the small box, put the two photos in the box, and placed them on the crazy man's bones. Unfortunately, he did not leave anything from the agent, otherwise the child's photos and agents would be considered as their reunion.

Unfortunately, if there is no reunion, there will be no reunion, even in this form, there will be no reunion.

A lifelong man is just for one thing. A talented man was chosen by fate to become a member of the counter-espionage, to prevent the demons from hurting our country, and assassinating scientists. This is a hero.

But heroes also need them.

Just like a madman, he is indeed a spy who is not worth mercy, but isn’t he also loyal to his country? What did he get in the end?

"You will understand, and you will soon understand." Gu Miqing didn't seem surprised when she heard Yan Jiucheng's question. She smiled: "I have also experienced your period. If you believe me, you will soon understand what you can get."

Yan Jiucheng raised his head and looked at Gu Miqing.

It's strange that the sadness and confusion came to Gu Miqing's eyes, as if all the sorrow in this world had disappeared, and there seemed to be stars in her eyes that could accommodate everything.

It also seemed like a mother's harbor, which made Yan Jiuzheng feel safe.

"Believe me, my partner." Gu Miqing stretched out his hand and raised his lips: "Congratulations, in a short period of time, he became a counter-espionage officer who can serve as the soul of our project. I am your subordinate and your partner. Gu Miqing, I will obey your command."

Yan Jiucheng was stunned for a moment and reached out to hold Gu Miqing's hand.

"My subordinate?" Yan Jiucheng asked.

"Yes." Gu Miqing nodded: "All the training is over. You completed the task from the Gate of Hell in advance, and you won two precious days. In the next two days, you devoted yourself to the information and memory brought back by Lao Dian and Xuan Lin, as well as studying our planning plan, and then you put into the final project."

"Will you obey my command?" Yan Jiucheng asked again.

"Yes!" Gu Miqing immediately stood at attention and pointed to the sign on his collar: "Tonight, the boss will hand you this medal, and you are my boss."

Yan Jiucheng thought about it and blinked: "Then can I issue an order now?"

"certainly."

"Gu Miqing, follow the order!" Yan Jiucheng said in a tight voice.

"Come!" Gu Miqing's waist was straight.

Oh, this is a bit cool. Yan Jiucheng smiled and turned around Gu Miqing who was standing straight, touching his chin.

"Gu Miqing, follow the order!" Yan Jiucheng said in a tight voice.

"Come!" Gu Miqing replied again, his waist straight.

Oh, it's really a bit cool! Yan Jiucheng grinned and turned around Gu Miqing who was standing straight, licking his lips.

“My order is…”

Yan Jiucheng gave the first order after he became the soul of the project.

A trace of surprise flashed across Gu Miqing's face. She looked at Yan Jiucheng steadily. Then, she pursed her lips, her eyes were shiny, and she nodded: "Yes!"

In the evening, Niuta turned on the radio as usual.

For the whole day, he had a dark face and looked downstairs steadily. There was a pool of blood in the place he looked at, which was where Yan Jiucheng pretended to die.

The red man on the fourth floor suddenly disappeared, which caused rumors to spread from Hell Gate, but George immediately came to news that it was Jiuyan's shamelessness and killed him and was transported out in the morning.

"I knew for a long time that he was too ostentatious!"

"I thought something was wrong when he was taken to George. Think about it, can anyone who came from George have a living?"

All day long, everyone around me was talking about this popular celebrity who had just fallen quickly.

Niu Tou didn't say a word, he just had a dark face, but he still should eat and drink. How can he deal with the danger that may come at any time without eating or drinking?

Living, living like an ant is the most important thing.

The sound of Jijiwawa came from the turned on radio. As usual, this was the only radio station he could search. The language he spoke was not English, and Niu Tou couldn't understand, but there would be music relaxing every evening.

Music is the thing that the black bullhead loves most at the gate of hell. It has no borders and can comfort his soul in the gate of hell, like a purgatory.

"I want to order a Peking Opera from the East, "Ode to Pear Blossoms". Suddenly, a little girl's voice came from the radio, speaking English, Chinese with the words "Ode to Pear Blossoms" and was stuttering.

"What's your name?" the host asked in broken English.

"My name is Jiuyan. This is my nickname. I gave it to myself. Does it sound good?" the little girl said.

"Oh?!" A little girl actually gave herself such a domineering name, which made the host laugh: "Okay, I'll search."

The bull's face seemed to be frozen, and he turned his head and stared at the radio, breathing rapidly.

"Well, we can play Oriental music, you can wait a little longer." The host's voice came out.
