Embers Ad Infinitum

Another morning, the "Old Tune Team" knocked on the door of Xiao Chong's apartment with the latest portable computer loaded with various games and some ingredients.

This time, it was no longer Sleeping Cat who opened the door, but Xiao Chong himself.

He seemed to have known for a long time that the visitors were Shang Jianyao and others, and he couldn't wait to ask:

"What kind of games are there?"

After asking, he seemed to feel that this was not good, and added:

"What kind of food is there?"

"Today I will prepare four dishes and one soup for you, home-cooked dishes from Huitu people." Jiang Baimian introduced with a smile.

Shang Jianyao introduced the games on the computer in a crackling voice, and finally sighed regretfully:

"The hard drive is just not big enough to fit them all."

"Wait until you get tired of playing." Xiao Chong glanced at the portable computer, and then at the ingredients in Long Yuehong's and Bai Chen's hands. He didn't know whether to enjoy the games now or wait for lunch.

"You have about an hour." Jiang Baimian rolled up his sleeves and walked to the kitchen.

Xiao Chong watched her disappear around the corner and whispered:

"I wish my mother had been so enlightened back then."

"Because she is not your mother." Shang Jianyao replied seriously.

Xiao Chong felt sad for a few seconds:

"Too……"

Shang Jianyao didn't continue this topic, and took Xiao Chong to try out different games.

By noon, braised pork, steamed lake fish, fried chicken, stir-fried vegetables, and tomato omelette soup were served to the table one after another.

Compared with last time, the portions of today's dishes are very generous, because the four carbon-based people from the "Old Tune Team" also plan to dine together to create a harmonious and beautiful atmosphere.

It’s great to talk about at the dinner table!

"I haven't eaten these for a long time..." Xiao Chong ate hard for a while, and then sighed.

Jiang Baimian smiled:

"Hurry up and eat, otherwise he will eat them all."

He was referring to Shang Jianyao.

Xiao Chong stopped talking and started cooking seriously.

When everyone had almost finished eating, Jiang Baimian said in a joking tone:

"We have been gathering Wu Meng's wool recently."

"Ah?" Xiao Chong looked at this elder sister with a bit of confusion and curiosity.

Jiang Baimian took advantage of the situation and talked about the recording of the "Tao and Electrical Maintenance" program by himself and others, and talked about various interesting experiences of experiencing the effects.

At the end, she sighed:

"It's a pity that we can't get Wu Meng to say what we want, and we can't get the intended effect."

Xiao Chong took the chopsticks, looked at the leftovers on the table, then looked back at the portable computer on the other side, hesitated and said:

"How about I record it for you?"

"Ah?" This time, Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were surprised.

Their original purpose was just to see if Xiao Chong could come up with a good solution, but in the end, the other party actually volunteered.

Shang Jianyao looked pleased, as if he had not "made the wrong friend".

"Okay." Jiang Baimian hesitated for a moment and then agreed without being polite.

She was afraid that Xiao Chong would take it seriously, so she gave up the idea.

But, can you, like Wu Meng, use the content played by electronic products to influence others? Can it achieve the goal of making Marcus want to go to the toilet? Long Yuehong subconsciously flashed these two thoughts.

Then, Xiao Chong glanced at him.

"Let's do it after eating." Jiang Baimian suppressed the impatience in his heart.

After eating and drinking, washing the dishes and tidying up the kitchen, the five members of the "Old Tune Team" and Xiao Chong gathered around the dining table again.

——During this process, Gnawa, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen, who were originally charging on the sofa, went back to the safe house where they stayed last night and brought over a portable radio recorder.

"I'm going to start." Xiao Chong sat up straight and said eagerly.

At this time, the sleeping cat who was sleeping on the balcony stood up, jumped lightly onto the awning below, and disappeared into the alley behind.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Baimian subconsciously considered whether to block his ears.

The next second, Xiao Chong opened his mouth and made a "shhh" sound.

"Shh..."

"Shh..."

"Shh..."

Amid such movement, Long Yuehong's expression suddenly became strange.

He felt a bulge in his lower abdomen, and the pressure in his bladder became intense.

In just a few seconds, he had the urge to go to the toilet.

It's really effective... Long Yuehong moved his thighs, wanting to hold it in for a while to avoid embarrassment.

At this moment, Bai Chen stood up suddenly and walked to the bathroom.

"Shhh..." In the voice of "shhhh...", Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao lined up behind them.

When Long Yuehong saw this, he almost burst into tears because he didn't know if he could endure it until the end.

If that doesn't work, go to the balcony to water the flowers? But would she be beaten by Sleeping Cat? Long Yuehong tried her best to divert her attention.

Finally, the first three problems were solved.

Long Yuehong wanted to sprint into the bathroom at a sprint speed of 100 meters, but her physical condition did not allow it, so she could only hold her legs and walk quickly.

After a while, he opened the door and came out with a refreshing look on his face.

Xiao Chong also closed his mouth and stopped making "shh" sounds.

Only then did Long Yuehong vaguely understand why Sleeping Cat stopped sleeping and suddenly went out.

"It's recorded." Gennava patted the portable tape recorder, "I just don't know how the effect will be."

Xiao Chong had already left his seat and said to Shang Jianyao:

"Let's go play the game and let them try out the effects themselves."

No accident, Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen went to the bathroom again.

It's just that compared with before, their quantity this time is very small, after all, they haven't had time to generate it.

Almost two hours later, Jiang Baimian, with Xiao Chong's reluctant eyes, took Shang Jianyao away by force.

"I didn't expect such a harvest." Jiang Baimian said happily in the jeep.

"The effect of Xiao Chong's voice can also be recorded through electronic products... I don't know if this is a characteristic shared by strong people at their level, or does it mean that he and Wu Meng belong to the same field?" Bai Chen raised his question after considering it. .

This is something Shang Jianyao cannot do currently. He can only rely on the loudspeaker to increase the distance.

"It may also be that the corresponding basic abilities are to interfere with electromagnetism, rather than interfering with matter." Jiang Baimian recalled the "soul corridor" information he had mastered.

"But they are much, much stronger than Di Marco." Long Yuehong means that even if these two are not awakened, according to strength, they are at least equal to those who have explored the depths of the "soul corridor", maybe Both basic abilities are available.

As the only person with a head-on collision in the "Old Tune Group" and a relatively normal "soul corridor" level awakener, Di Marco will naturally be compared.

——The "Advanced Heartless One" of the "Mirage Dragon Cult" lacks enough wisdom, and his abilities will definitely not be fully utilized.

"Di Marco's condition is not good either." Jiang Baimian said simply.

"Yes." Shang Jianyao agreed, "Don't talk about him anymore. He later made so many contributions to us."

This refers to the "Bead of Destiny".

Gnawa in the middle of the back seat said instead:

“The most important questions now are two questions:

"First, how can I not be noticed by the owner of the 'virtual world' when playing the recording?

"Two, why is Marcus the only one going to the bathroom?"

Hearing this, Jiang Baimian was stunned:

"Wait a minute, why do we want Xiao Chong to record the sound of peeing? We can just let him record the sound of hypnosis!

"As long as the owner of the 'virtual world' is affected and dozes off for ten seconds, we can achieve our goal through the 'Fate Bead'!"

As a result, the "old tune team" went through a lot of effort and went through such a big circle, but they still had to send Marcus to the bathroom.

Bai Chen and Long Yue looked at each other in confusion, with only one thought in their minds:

Influenced by Shang Jianyao...

"Isn't this bad?" Shang Jianyao, who was in charge of driving, really felt that this was the perfect step.

"Go back to Xiao Chong and record it again?" Long Yuehong suggested.

Jiang Baimian slowly shook his head:

"He was very reluctant this time..."

If you go to trouble again, you might fall out.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully:

“In fact, it is feasible now.

"We can put Xiao Chong's voice into a certain song as background music. When the time comes, pretend to be bored and listen to the song."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao couldn't wait.

Jiang Baimian continued:

"And this is a child's voice. It does not belong to Wu Meng and will not be noticed immediately...

"The recorded version is definitely not as good as the original version. Even if the owner of the 'virtual world' reacts, it will definitely be the last one. By the time he finds out, Marcus has already gone to the bathroom.

"Among the nobles in the box, only Marcus seems to drink the least amount of water, or even not drink at all. And he must have paid attention to similar things before setting off. Therefore, if they are all affected, he should be the one who can hold it in longer. , most of them will go to the last few.

"Now I just hope that there are no other suspected strong people in the box, such as General Phocas before, otherwise the rhythm will be out of control.

"This can be dealt with flexibly, but if it doesn't work, we won't play the recording of the gladiatorial match the day after tomorrow and wait for the next time."

"Okay." Shang Jianyao tapped the car horn.

Bai Chen, Long Yuehong and Gnawa thought carefully and helped to check and fill in every detail.

…………

In a blink of an eye, it's time for a new gladiatorial competition.

The "old tune team" put on disguise and came to the venue again.

"Lao Ge, remember the agreed-upon code and cut off the power supply line when the time comes." Jiang Baimian raised the silver-white mobile phone in his palm.

"Okay." For Gennava, this task was not difficult at all.

Jiang Baimian immediately said to Bai Chen:

"You are at the commanding heights in the distance. If you can, try not to be exposed unless our evacuation is blocked.

"If nothing can be done, just read the letter I gave you."

The noble box was not visible from that commanding height, and only part of the escape route could be monitored.

Bai Chen nodded and picked up the "Orange" rifle placed next to him.

"Huh..." Jiang Baimian breathed out and said to Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong, "Let's go in."
