Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 43: invite

   Listening to Jiang Baimian’s explanation, Shang Jian Yao and Bai Chen gradually felt a sense of realization.

   They found many signs, but they didn't think deeply.

   Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jianyao:

  " Shouldn't it?

  "Didn’t you have guessed that there was a problem with this plan? I didn’t say anything, and used my actions to imply that you held a cookie in your mouth against the'Hungry Ghost Dao', didn’t you understand it quickly?

   "From such an important thing, I didn't make a sound, but when I made a plan before, I didn't even lower my voice. I could detect the abnormality, and I could even guess that what I said at the time may not necessarily be what I really did."

  Shang saw that Yao did not think back, and said directly:

   "I thought you were afraid of confession in voice, which would make me remember the corresponding content frequently, and it was difficult to avoid the "Hexintong" of Jingfa. After all, we didn't know the effective range of this ability.

   "And when it is transformed into actions and images, there is a process of interpretation. Even if I can see that scene in my heart, I may not be able to understand the true meaning."

   "...You are too complicated to think." Jiang Baimian made an evaluation.

  Bai Chen echoed Shang Jian Yao:

"I also thought that you didn't make a sound at the time because of your understanding of the awakened person. Although I have never heard of talking about the awakened person's ability and discussing how to deal with him, he will'hear' it, but I cannot rule out this possibility. In this respect, there is certainly no major force that knows much."

   "...You are more complicated than he thought." Jiang Baimian laughed and praised himself, "Is my performance really impeccable?"

   "I just didn't expect you to lie to us, and didn't have the idea of ​​thinking in that direction." Shang Jianyao responded immediately.

   Bai Chen nodded, agreeing.

   Jiang Baimian looked around again, smiling and turning off the topic:

  "So, coming out to train will allow you to quickly accumulate experience and cultivate a tacit understanding between each other.

   "In short, no matter what decision I make, you have to believe that I will never cheat you."

   "Let's go, let's go and meet Long Yuehong."

   "Okay." Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen have fully figured out what happened and learned a lot from them.

   Jiang Baimian glanced at the direction in which the mechanical monk Jing Fa was escaping, and sighed:

   "Unfortunately, I failed to destroy the body of Jing Fa, and got the bionic chip inside.

"The corresponding technology is definitely worth studying, and it can help the company overcome many difficulties. Moreover, most of the monastic order has a certain understanding of the cause of the destruction of the old world. The'immortal man' is one of the most important projects before the destruction of the old world. It will not be easy to inherit this legacy."

  Speaking of this, before Shang Jian Yao reminded him, Jiang Baimian shook his head and said:

   "Haha, this is all my beautiful imagination.

  "In fact, I was really going to destroy the body of Jingfa, so I didn't dare to get his bionic chip. The awakened person's abilities are strange and terrifying, and carrying the bionic chip that bears his consciousness with me is tantamount to suicide.

   "This is good, this is good."

   She then turned her head to look at Shang Jian Yao:

   "Let's go."

  Shang Jianyao glanced at the wheel marks, turned his body silently, and squatted down.

   "It's very meticulous. I didn't let us drive on our own. I can't catch up with the exoskeleton device." Jiang Baimian nodded with satisfaction and sat sideways on the energy backpack, leaving Bai Chen halfway.

   When the two sat down and grasped the metal frame at the shoulders, Shang Jianyao straightened up, took a big step, and followed the track of the wheel amid the slight metal friction.

   He didn't run at full speed, his pedaling sound was not very loud.

   About a quarter of an hour later, Shang Jianyao left the sparse woodland and came to a gray and black wilderness.

   This is a world of rocks and weeds. The soil is hard and the car marks are shallow and numerous, making it difficult to distinguish.

  Using the "Integrated Early Warning System", Shang Jianyao saw the jeep far away.

   Its side wheels sunk into a pond-sized silt, and the whole body tilted and might sink at any time.

   However, there are two ropes connecting it to a wild gray off-road vehicle that is spliced ​​together.

   The engine of this grey off-road vehicle hummed, trying to get Jipra out of the mud.

  Long Yuehong, carrying an assault rifle, stood by the car and had a good chat with a man and a woman.

   "How about, have you seen the jeep? I sensed that there are many people over there." Jiang Baimian pressed the shoulder of the exoskeleton device, craned his neck, and looked at the distance where Long Yuehong was.

   Shang Jian Yao nodded:

   "I saw it."

   "Long Yuehong is okay?" Bai Chen saw that Shang Jian Yao's pace had obviously slowed down, so he raised a question.

   Shang Jian Yao smiled and said:

   "He is fine, and he has made some friends."

   "Oh." Jiang Baimian uttered a tone, "Let's take a look."

   Shang Jian Yao quickened his pace and ran to the location of the jeep.

   Pedal, pedal, pedal, he deliberately increased the sound of footsteps so that Long Yuehong and the man and woman next to him could hear the movement from a distance.

   The man and woman and Long Yuehong turned their heads almost at the same time and looked here.

   As soon as I saw the black military exoskeleton device of Taiwan Railways, the face of the man and the woman changed suddenly, and they rolled over without thinking, and returned to the gray off-road vehicle.

  At this time, the jeep had been dragged out of the small swamp by the assembled gray off-road vehicle.

   Long Yuehong's face showed joy, and he greeted a few steps:

"How's it going?"

After    shouted, he remembered something and hurriedly turned his head and shouted to the gray off-road vehicle:

   "Don't worry, it's my companion!"

   "Are they?" Shang Jianyao rushed to the front.

   The gray off-road vehicle, whether it is the person inside, or the man and woman outside, are highly nervous and alert.

   Long Yuehong quickly replied:

   "I was not familiar with the road and drove the car into the mud. After they found out, they offered to help.

   "They are very friendly!"

   Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen looked at each other and laughed in a low voice:

   "This is not like an ordinary wilderness wanderer would do..."

After    said, she patted Shang Jian Yao on the shoulder:

   "We also showed our kindness."

   Shang saw Yao heard this, and immediately stopped.

  Wait until Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen jumped off the energy backpacks, picked up their guns, and prepared for them, he walked to Long Yuehong's side and said loudly:

   "Help me take off the exoskeleton device."

   Seeing that Shang Jian Yao was indeed disarming the exoskeleton device, the group of people at the gray assembly car was obviously relieved.

   They discussed, and let the man and woman who had talked with Long Yuehong come over again.

   The man in his early thirties, with a face of Zhang Guozi, rough and vicissitudes of skin.

   He is black-haired and brown-eyed. He wears what the old world calls formal clothes, and his back is straight-of course, the formal clothes must be modified to make it easier to move.

   is different from the wilderness wanderers that Shang Jian Yao and others encountered before. Although his clothing is old and has an inconspicuous patch, it does not feel tattered at all.

   The woman is in her twenties, with black hair and brown eyes.

   She is wearing a military green camouflage uniform, her facial features are not bad, but there is no expression on her face, giving people a cold and indifferent feeling.

   At the junction of her neck and clothing, there is a vaguely blue and black tattoo.

   The man and the woman, each carrying an automatic rifle and a black pistol, walked to a place four or five meters away from Jiang Baimian and the others and stopped.

   "Thank you for your help!" Jiang Baimian shouted.

   "This is what every moral person should do." The man in his thirties responded calmly.

   Jiang Baimian suddenly smiled:

   "On the dust, UU reading www.uukanshu.com morality is a luxury, no, a rare item."

   "We can't give up morality just because the old world is destroyed." The man was quite proud of his ability to uphold morality.

   Then, he asked loudly:

   "Are you also going to the north of Yuelu Station?"

   "Are you going to find someone?" Jiang Baimian's eyebrows moved slightly, "How do you call it?"

   The man answered calmly:

   "Wu Shoushi, an intermediate hunter."

  He paused and said again:

   "It seems you don't know yet, north of Yuelu Station, an old world city ruin was discovered, which has never been discovered before."

   The ruins of the city that have never been discovered before? Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen couldn't help but glance at each other.

   Jiang Baimian frowned slightly:

   "How did you know?

   "An abnormality happened in the depths of the swamp, which was the night before."

   Wu Shoushi glanced at his companion, without concealing:

   "Someone entered the ruins of the city, found a lot of things, changed a wireless telegraph machine, and passed the matter back to the guild in Yecao City.

   "You should know what it means to be a city ruin that has never been discovered."

   Before Jiang Baimian and others could answer, he gave the answer himself:

   "Danger and opportunity!

  "The items, information, and secrets there are enough to satisfy thousands of relic hunters teams many times. You don't have to worry about killing each other.

   "In comparison, the dangers inherent in the ruins of the city are more intuitive and more terrifying, and more companions can be more powerful against them."
