Embers Ad Infinitum

Maybe Xiao Chong is hiding there again? Long Yuehong was frightened and didn't think this was a good thing.

Although he has also played with Xiao Chong, helped him clean his room, and cooked for him, he feels that this person is actually quite easy to get along with. Putting aside his strong strength and mysterious origin, he is just a man who lacks love and has no security. It feels like ordinary children who are addicted to games, but today is different from the past. The "Old Tune Team" broke into the dream of "Zhuang Sheng" and suspected that Xiao Chong had a certain relationship with this Zhi Sui and was one of his split personalities. .

Therefore, the "Old Tune Team" really encountered Xiao Chong again, but it may not be Xiao Chong, or it may not be only Xiao Chong.

This is full of unknowns and dangers.

As if aware of Long Yuehong's psychological activities, Shang Jianyao continued with a smile:

"Oe City Yingcai Junior High School might be in the ruins of Marsh No. 1."

As for Linhe Village in Dajiang City, it definitely does not belong to the city.

Thinking of what Lao Ge described about Dajiang City Yingcai Junior High School, Long Yuehong couldn't help but shudder.

At this time, Bai Chen looked at Jiang Baimian, pursed his lips and said:

"But now the several entrances to the Swamp No. 1 ruins are basically controlled by the company, or are under the company's watch. It may be a bit difficult for us to hide from the company, sneak into the ruins, and find the corresponding written materials."

More importantly, the "old tune team" currently has no ideas, plans, or psychological preparations for a head-on conflict with the company.

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong nodded in agreement.

Shang Jianyao laughed:

"The ruins of the city are so big, and the company's manpower is limited, how can we see every place? In the past few years, haven't there still been ruin hunters coming in and out of the ruins?

"The worst case scenario is that we abandon the car early and enter from the alley, or play a lullaby for Wang Beicheng and the others."

"Why are you sure that Wang Beicheng's team is on duty now?" Jiang Baimian laughed out loud.

What she meant was, why target Wang Beicheng again?

Without waiting for Shang Jianyao to respond, Jiang Baimian looked around and said:

"Actually, there is an entrance that the company does not control."

"Which one?" As soon as Long Yuehong blurted out her words, her heart moved and she thought of the answer.

Jiang Baimian smiled slightly and said:

"The entrance that Qiao Chu took us to before."

"You didn't report it?" Shang Jianyao looked "surprised", but Jiang Baimian thought it was a sign of joy.

Jiang Baimian laughed and said:

"When we left Ruin No. 1, didn't we think that the road was too winding and dangerous? Without Qiao Chu to lead us, we could easily have fallen into the swamp and changed the way An Ruxiang and the others came in?"

"Yes." Bai Chen nodded.

She remembered that she met Wang Beicheng's brigade on the way back.

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"When I was writing the report later, I didn't think it was troublesome, so I didn't describe in detail which path Qiao Chu took us. The company probably defaulted to the path we took when we left, and Wang Beicheng and the others should have confirmed it."

The ruins of Swamp No. 1 are huge and dangerous. "Pangu Creature" has been working steadily, advancing little by little and exploring slowly. At least two-thirds of the place has not yet been searched.

In other words, the chances of them discovering the hidden entrance are quite low.

Long Yuehong suddenly realized it and said worriedly:

"Team leader, I remember that the road is hidden deep in the swamp. It is not only hidden, tortuous and easy to lose direction, but also very dangerous."

Fortunately, the "old tune team" currently has enough ability to deal with those deformed creatures. The most troublesome thing is the swamp itself, which is a quagmire that can swallow all life.

Jiang Baimian smiled and comforted:

“Have you forgotten what season it is?

"Just after the Spring Festival, the temperature in the depths of the Black Marsh Wilderness and the northern areas is still very low, and all lakes and rivers are frozen, allowing vehicles to pass through."

This is true for lakes and rivers, not to mention swamps.

In the cold winter, it is equivalent to a smooth road.

"That's right." Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he could enter the Swamp No. 1 ruins relatively safely and not meet with the security department employees of "Pangu Biology" and focus on collecting written materials to determine whether the ruins were from Dajiang City, he felt that this task was not so difficult to accept.

Jiang Baimian turned to ask Shang Jianyao:

"What are you going to do with this mining area?"

At present, most of the bandits have wandered away. Only the people stationed in the mines and looking after the miners are still there because they are too far away and are not affected by the small speakers.

However, precisely because they are so far apart, they have not noticed anything going on in the base camp until now.

Shang Jian Yao was in high spirits:

"I will distribute the bandits' weapons to the miners and spend a few days training them on how to use guns and artillery, how to set up a defense line, how to deal with the enemy, and how to rely on the complex terrain in the mountains to move."

For others, this is a very difficult thing. After all, most of the wilderness wanderers have only seen them, never used guns, and do not have the resources. However, Shang Jianyao can directly implant a set of thinking into them to help them. Familiarize yourself with the corresponding operations as soon as possible.

Although this cannot replace muscle memory and mass-produce warriors skilled in hot weapons, it can save a lot of time.

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"What are you going to do with the women and children left behind by the robbers?"

Shang Jianyao replied sincerely:

"I will convince both sides and let them forget the past and get along well."

Hiss, Long Yuehong secretly took a breath,

He is worthy of being an awakened person who has explored the depths of the "soul corridor"!

Jiang Baimian frowned and thought for a few seconds, then sighed and said:

"That's all for now."

At the same time, she sighed in her heart:

Jiang Baimian, Jiang Baimian, you have fallen!

She had always disapproved of Shang Jianyao's use of his abilities to create false peace. She had rejected Shang Jianyao's proposal to "persuade" the townspeople to live in harmony with the subhuman groups at the Hongshiji.

But now, when urgent matters arise, she can only hold her nose and admit it.

Hey, I just hope that the current ability is enough to maintain the effect for a long, long time... When a lie has been told for a long time and has not been overturned, then it becomes the truth... Jiang Baimian comforted himself.

After receiving the permission, Shang Jianyao turned around excitedly and walked towards the door.

Suddenly, he stopped, half-turned his head, and solemnly said to Jiang Baimian and others:

"You want to leave one for me, no, just half."

"What?" Long Yuehong looked confused.

Shang Jianyao pointed to the sweet potatoes roasted by the bandit leader in the coal stove, swallowed his saliva and said:

"almost done."

Only then did Long Yuehong smell the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes filling the air.

In cold weather, getting one like this is definitely a top-notch enjoyment.

Jiang Baimian smiled, clapped his hands and said:

"Take care of other things first and then eat when you come back."

She didn't forget that the purpose of this time was to get supplies.

To this end, she adjusted the position of the roasted sweet potatoes so that they would not be burnt when she waited for someone to come back too late.

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao responded happily.

Bai Chen and Long Yuehong also nodded relaxedly.

As for where those bandits will end up wandering, whether and when they can get rid of their influence, are not issues they need to consider now.

…………

In the white snow, it took the "old tune team" a lot of time to find the road that Qiao Chu led them into the ruins of Swamp No. 1.

Under the severe cold, those bloodthirsty mosquitoes and deformed vines may have disappeared, hidden deep under the ice, or covered with white, as if they have been dead for a long time.

With a creaking sound, the jeep of the "Old Tune Team" drove on the ice and snow. Except for slipping from time to time, it did not encounter any sudden sinking.

"I think it's over there." Jiang Baimian sat in the passenger seat and pointed to a place.

Shang Jianyao nodded:

"OK."

He turned the steering wheel and steered the vehicle to the other side.

"That's not right." Jiang Baimian quickly corrected, "I was talking about that side!"

"That's right." Shang Jianyao said with a smile, "When it comes to giving directions, I have to listen to what you say. The effect should be pretty good."

"Co-authoring eliminates wrong answers, right?" Jiang Baiqian laughed angrily.

She was so used to getting hit in this area that she even began to laugh at herself about it.

"That's almost it." Shang Jianyao looked at the rearview mirror and said, "Xiaohong, please point in the same direction."

I'm not a roadie... Long Yuehong felt a little guilty and ignored this guy.

He does know the way, but he's always had bad luck.

Under Shang Jianyao's operation, the "old tune team" finally entered the tunnel leading to the ruins of Marsh No. 1 when it was almost dark.

Jiang Baimian didn't know if it was considered ahead of schedule or delayed.

Soon, the jeep drove out of the tunnel, and they saw the sleeping city again and the dead high-rise buildings.

Long Yuehong stared at this scene and said sincerely:

"We are back again..."

Maybe this is fate.

Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen also had similar feelings.

Shang Jianyao nodded and said angrily:

"Qiao Chu still owes us a military exoskeleton device."
