What cheered her up was the pandemic a few years ago. Her mother was infected and her condition did not improve for a long time. Later, her condition deteriorated rapidly, and the hospital was unable to save her.
She will always remember her mother's last words.
"People should be like flowers facing the sun, and be happy every day."
So she decided to pull herself together.
She picked up her old books and, with the help of relatives, gradually took on some tutoring jobs.
Two years ago, I passed the exam and got a job at the 110 command center in the county.
Originally, her family lived in Yancheng. In order to treat her illness, her parents sold their house in Yancheng and moved back to their hometown in Nanzhao Province.
She cherishes her job as a telephone operator.
She felt fulfilled as she dealt with the various little things every day, trying to find meaning in life amidst the mundane.
Then came that strange emergency call.
That person said they saw a dragon!
The person who answered the call was another colleague. Upon hearing this, they all laughed and said that making a false police report would result in legal consequences, and then hung up, telling the other party not to joke around.
Although she also found it unbelievable, when the phone rang again, she still asked the caller for details about their identity and the location where the dragon had appeared.
When she heard that the person on the other end of the phone seemed very nervous, she comforted them and guessed that what they had seen might be some kind of python or something similar.
Just after she hung up the phone, the leader of the command center suddenly approached her and asked her to wait in the conference room.
From then on, Lu Mengdi felt like she was dreaming.
First, someone claiming to be from the national security department spoke with her, demanding that she not disclose the police information. Later, the person seemed to have received some kind of notification, inquiring about her past, and finally asking her if she was interested in changing to a more challenging job.
After confirming that she wouldn't have to sacrifice her dignity or safety, Lu Mengdi still agreed because of the promised 500,000 yuan annual salary and room and board.
She is short of money.
The family was already heavily in debt due to medical expenses, and now he has to take medication long-term and go to the hospital for regular check-ups, which is also a considerable expense.
After her mother passed away, her father grew increasingly old over the years, and she always felt guilty about it.
After some hesitation, she confessed her illness.
To her surprise and delight, the other party said that all subsequent medical expenses would be reimbursed, that they could arrange for her to go to the top hospitals, and even hinted that there was a possibility of curing her.
If she hadn't seen how respectful the county and even city leaders were to that security official, she would have almost thought she'd been scammed.
She heard people call him Director Liu.
Then she was sent to the shore of Qinglong Lake.
She met another girl, young and beautiful with a special air about her, and Director Liu spoke to her with a hint of flattery.
She was told that her job was to be the assistant to a girl named Guan Mi.
Although it was only for a day, she found that Guan Mi was easier to get along with than she had imagined.
She was kind and noticed that she wasn't in good health, even offering to help her get better if she had the chance.
Could her true identity be that of a special doctor?
However, she noticed that Guan Mi seemed listless and absent-minded.
When Lu Mengdi saw the soldiers stationed by the lake, and Director Zhao, whom she only saw on television, appear and remain there, she felt that her absurd guess was becoming more and more real.
Could there really be a dragon here?
……
Chapter 71 Lei Yao Was Sold
Wow!
A sudden sound of water breaking came.
Lu Mengdi, who was introducing local delicacies to Guan Mi, suddenly saw the girl in front of her become lively. Her bright smile made her momentarily dazed, and she stood up, shouting "Mr. Bai".
Lu Mengdi also turned her head.
Then she witnessed a scene she would never forget.
A white dragon burst forth from the water, its agile form gliding through the air, its body as clear and lustrous as jade.
The shock left her mind blank for a moment.
Even though she had guessed over the past few days that the emergency call was likely real and that dragons really did exist, what she saw before her eyes still shocked her beyond measure.
The white dragon actually flew towards her!
Guan Mi cheered and went to greet him.
She opened her arms as if to give him a hug, but found nothing.
Her head was held down by the white dragon, making her look like a bull trying to charge at someone but being held down.
This comical scene somewhat eased Lu Mengdi's fear.
Liu Chongyu and Director Zhao, who had been hesitant to speak, turned their heads away in unison.
Hearing coughs from those around him, Guan Mi blushed and said, embarrassed and annoyed, "Mr. Bai!"
Bai Lin released her head.
Guan Mi stomped her foot angrily.
Lu Mengdi was suddenly surprised to find that a crack had appeared on the stone under Guan Mi's feet.
A bold idea suddenly popped into her head.
Could this girl be a dragon in real life too?
"I have important business to attend to," Bai Lin said.
He turned his head, and Director Zhao and Liu Chongyu had already walked over one after the other.
Looking at the white dragon in front of him, Director Zhao felt that it seemed different, as if it exuded a stronger invisible aura.
He smiled bitterly to himself, thinking that the changes in Mengala Bay must have altered his mindset.
Not to mention him, even the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty now have a different attitude towards Bai Long.
Some people had originally dreamed of being able to control this white dragon, but after that incident, everyone was focused on how to take good care of this dragon.
"Mr. Bai, we heard you were resting here, so we specially waited here to avoid disturbing you." Director Zhao adopted a very humble attitude.
Bai Lin nodded: "Thank you for your trouble."
His words made Director Zhao feel flattered, and he quickly replied, "This is what we should do."
"There's one more thing I need your help with," Bai Lin added.
"Please give your instructions, Mr. Bai!" Director Zhao said hurriedly.
Lei Yao's experience had made him realize that this white dragon was even more threatening than everyone thought.
Having a good relationship with someone will bring you many more benefits.
"Have you ever seen something like this before?" Bai Lin asked.
Just as Director Zhao was wondering what was going on, he suddenly saw a movement on the lake, and then a crystal-clear, jade-like skeleton emerged from the water and landed in front of him.
Its skeleton was much longer than the white dragon in front of it, and those horns...
keel!
The thought instantly popped into Director Zhao's mind.
“This is the skeleton of a dragon,” Bai Lin said.
Upon closer inspection, Director Zhao discovered that the dragon horns on the skeleton were indeed quite different from those of the white dragon in front of him.
“I will have someone investigate,” he said seriously.
"If you can find any clues, I will offer a generous reward," Bai Lin said.
The words "generous reward" secretly pleased Director Zhao, and he felt a rare sense of anticipation.
But he understood the difficulty involved and assured them, "We will use all our resources to investigate!"
Bai Lin nodded and continued, "When Lei Yao returns, have him come back up the mountain to see me."
Director Zhao asked in surprise, "He's really alive?"
“Of course,” Bai Lin said, “you’ll find out soon enough.”
Just as Director Zhao was wondering what was going on, his cell phone suddenly rang.
……
Inside the border station.
Lei Yao put down the phone and let out a long sigh.
He said to the people behind him, "Someone will come to pick you up later."
"Don't worry, you were all coerced, you'll be fine."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "You're safe!"
Everyone cheered.
A young man stepped forward, looked at him, and said, "Brother Zhang, you're not using your real name, are you? How should we address you from now on?"
Lei Yao waved his hand and said, "You guys need to be more careful in the future. If you want to make money, you have to be down-to-earth and not get scammed again."
Seeing that he wouldn't give a direct answer, the young man became a little anxious: "But you saved us..."
This guy in front of me is even more of a wolf warrior than the characters in the movies!
Lei Yao shook his head and said, "This is just the duty of a soldier of the Great Xia Dynasty!"
He couldn't help but think back to three days ago.
He swam naked to the shore and arrived at a small town.
The town was very dilapidated, and the townspeople were dark-skinned and thin, and he couldn't understand a word of their chatter.
A fisherman in a small boat was the first to spot him, pointing at him and shouting.
Lei Yao was so frightened that he immediately hid in the water.
While he was hesitating about whether to go ashore in another place, someone arrived with local police.
He forced himself to walk out of the water, suppressing his embarrassment, and wrapped himself in the tattered cloth that the other party had kindly given him.
After being taken to the police station, he used hand gestures and the translation software on the other party's phone to explain that he was a tourist from Daxia, that his boat had been involved in an accident and drifted out to sea, and that he hoped the other party could help him contact the embassy.
Then he was sold off by that Burmese policeman.
Under the pretense of taking him to the embassy, the other party took him directly to an industrial park a hundred miles away.
When Lei Yao saw the electric fence surrounding the park, he immediately realized what the other party was doing.
He did not act rashly, but pretended to be as flustered as those who were sold here for the first time. Under duress, he revealed his identity and was quickly assigned a job.
That was a telecom fraud industrial park located in southern Myanmar.
Lei Yao disguised himself as a tourist surnamed Zhang and lay in wait for a day before launching a sudden attack when the boss showed up.
Lei Yao's original physique was already far beyond that of ordinary people.
Even without targeted training to control the power within the dragon scales after becoming a Dragon Guard, his physique still improved further, far exceeding the limits of the human body.
Even though the boss was accompanied by two armed bodyguards, Lei Yao still managed to capture him in one fell swoop.
When the two bodyguards tried to fire, he disarmed them with his bare hands and killed them.
During this process, Lei Yao tried his best to control himself and not show too much abnormality.
It wasn't until the park's second-in-command arrived and ordered the private militia armed with submachine guns to kill him on the spot, regardless of his life or death, that he revealed some of his extraordinary strength.
The bullets hit his body, but instead of knocking him down, he charged forward and subdued all the thugs in the park!
The boss, half-dead amidst the hail of bullets, nearly jumped up in fright.
He was closest and saw with his own eyes the flesh and blood writhing at Lei Yao's wound.
