Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 75 Folk Customs

As soon as Teresa finished explaining, Shang Jianyao next to Jiang Baimian laughed:

"It's fun to wear a mask."

He speaks Honghe language.

Although I can't talk about how fluent, the old world has been destroyed for so many years, the Red River language in different places has changed to a certain extent, and Teresa's own accent is not the same as that popular in Weed City.

"What?" Teresa looked at Jiang Baimian blankly, seeking answers.

What he meant was that because of wearing a mask, you can only judge whether a person is of red river or gray soil from the common language, so that in front of a few of us, we talked about the bad of gray speakers... It’s good to disguise. When everyone can't tell the difference from the outside, things become interesting... It's like the material embodiment of the concept of "personality mask" in psychology... Hehe, when the gray speakers all master the Red River language, when you also Having completely mastered the dusty language, how can you tell the enemy from ourselves and form cliques? Form the "Animal Mask Party", "Character Mask Party" and "Monster Mask Party"? At this moment, thoughts flashed through Jiang Baimian's mind.

In the end, these only turned into one sentence:

"He has never played with masks before."

Without giving Teresa a chance to ask further, Jiang Baimian let out a "um":

"The cause of death given by the law and order is excessive fright?"

Teresa nodded slightly:

"They are too perfunctory. The cause of death can't convince me."

The cause of death may not be false, the main point is what caused the excessive fright... Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully:

"Does Mr. Herwig himself have a heart problem?"

"No, he has always been in good health. Whether running, jumping, or fighting, he has performed well." Teresa replied very positively.

Shang Jian Yao raised his hand, and asked curiously before Jiang Baimian agreed:

"You only talked about his performance in running, jumping and fighting, what about other aspects?"

Teresa shook her head:

"I just give a few examples.

"To be honest, he didn't do well in bed."

Poof... Jiang Baimian almost choked on his saliva.

What is this?

Long Yuehong coughed, only Bai Chen was calm.

Teresa immediately explained:

"This is also a common problem for all believers in our sect.

"We must always be vigilant. Even when we do that kind of thing, we must pay attention to the surrounding situation and guard against abnormal reactions from our partners.

"In order to maximize our own safety, it is everyone's consensus to shorten the time."

Hey, this time, in addition to Shang Jianyao, Jiang Baimian was applauding.

She felt that it was not enough to express her feelings.

She never expected that the word "vigilance" would change the daily life of Hongshiji in such a profound way.

The only reason Long Yuehong didn't applaud was because he was stunned.

Even Bai Chen was a little curious:

"Will you sleep together?"

"No." Teresa answered truthfully, "Distance is our true friend. When anyone thinks about it, we will make an appointment in advance."

"Where is the child?" Jiang Baimian asked.

"You can sleep with one of your parents before 1 year old, and then you must separate." Teresa looked around, "Let's not waste time on these issues."

Jiang Baimian discovered that he was obsessed with understanding folk customs and forgot his hunter mission.

She glared at Shang Jianyao:

"What did you want to ask just now?"

"Ask Hervig if he is good at holding his breath." Shang Jianyao replied confidently.

"Hold your breath... he can swim, at an average level." Teresa expressed understanding. "In short, there is nothing wrong with his body, and Weller said no other problems have been found."

"Is Weller's autopsy results trustworthy?" Jiang Baimian quickly entered a professional state.

If it weren't for the inherent hidden illness of the body, then there is a high probability that the death method of excessive shock has something to do with the awakened.

At least Jiang Baimian now knows that two abilities can cause similar causes of death:

Nightmare Horse’s control of the heart in the realm of "True Nightmare" and "Fate".

"Although Weller is an outsider, he is also from Red River. He will not be too partial. Unfortunately, his level is limited. He was originally an ordinary doctor and his specialty is not in this area." Teresa tried her best to speak out her contradictory thoughts.

When Jiang Baimian nodded lightly, Shang Jianyao asked again:

"Why do you say ‘Gray Man’ instead of ‘Gray Man’?"

In Honghe language, the former requires an extra suffix, making it more confusing.

"Dust is everyone's dust." Teresa replied.

Jiang Baimian "tsk" secretly:

"If we take this task, how will the reward be calculated?"

"I will go to the guild to combine this task with the task of finding arms, and the reward will be half of that batch of arms." Teresa said without hesitation.

It's very generous. After completing this task, plus the materials saved before, you can almost buy an old military exoskeleton device... Jiang Baimian nodded:

"We try our best to finish."

She then asked:

"What do you know about the looting of arms?

"Are the bandits often active in the surrounding area, or did they emerge suddenly?"

Teresa's mood became a little excited again:

"It must be those Greyspeakers who did it! They just want to take back the arms trade!

"It's not them. How can there be a band of bandits with such strong firepower around Redstone?"

After speaking slightly hysterically, she took two breaths:

"Hervig did not talk to me much about this matter before his death. He only said that the group of people was very powerful and cooperated very well. They all wore masks and disguised themselves. There were almost ten people who came forward and hid some secretly. .

"If you want to know more, you can go back to the hotel camp and ask Lehman in Room 127.

"He is a smuggling businessman from the ‘United Industrial’, my husband’s partner, and he and his caravan brought these arms. As a result, they were robbed not long after the transaction was completed."

"Okay." Jiang Baimian asked for some more details, stood up, pointed to the ventilation duct where Hewig died, and said to Shang Jian Yao, "Climb in and take a look."

"Han Wanghuo checked and found nothing." Teresa stood up, "It might be found, but it was destroyed by him."

"We checked it ourselves before we were relieved." Jiang Baimian did not give up.

Shang Jian Yao immediately pulled over the table, removed the vent fence, took a flashlight for a while, and then crawled in.

It's not too dirty here, obviously people often hide in, and there are no obvious traces left.

Shang Jian Yao crawled along the pipe for a while, and the deeper he went, the narrower he felt.

With the help of the flashlight, he carefully checked it, and finally stepped back, leaping off the table and said:

"There is no trace of other people's activities."

"Yeah." Jiang Baimian looked at Teresa, "Is the sheriff here?"

"He went to the area where Greyspeakers often hid, and said that no matter what, the necessary procedures will be there." Teresa couldn't pick out Han Wanghuo's problem at all.

Jiang Baimian exhaled:

"Then let's visit Mr. Lehman first."

"Well, as soon as possible, he doesn't know when he will return to ‘United Industries’." Teresa urged.

When the four members of the "Old Tune Group" were about to get out of the "gunfire", Shang Jianyao suddenly turned his head and said, wearing a monkey mask:

"last question.

"Do you have any children?"

"Yes, two." Teresa was puzzled. "What do you ask this for?"

"The body functions are normal." Shang Jianyao commented seriously.

Jiang Baimian knew that this guy's brain was twitching again, and based on this topic, he asked casually:

"How old is the child?"

"The older one is fifteen years old and the younger one is twelve years old. After that, we agreed not to have children and used certain products produced by "United Industries"." Teresa did not hide.

Saying goodbye to the survivor, Jiang Baimian took Shang Jianyao and the others all the way back to the fifth floor, preparing to enter the parking lot.

At this moment, she looked around at the Red Stone Collection, which was so quiet as if no one existed, and sighed slightly:

"It is indeed a necessity to accept the vigilant sect here."

"Why?" When Long Yuehong listened to Gaudi's explanation, she felt that they had joined the vigilant sect too easily, even if the corresponding doctrines could indeed increase their probability of survival.

It's not that if you don't believe in the vigilant sect, you cannot raise your guard and hide yourself!

Jiang Baimian retracted his gaze and sighed with a smile:

"Redstone Ji is a market town formed by the exchange of materials between the Di Marco family and the outside world.

"Its members come from all directions, speak different languages, have different customs, and have different looks and characteristics. They will inevitably be divided into small groups after another.

"Because of the single source of trade at the time, these small groups should be more of a competitive relationship. They may often conflict with each other. You assassinate me, I assassinate you, you ambush me, and I ambush you.

"Normally, this will slowly evolve into the form of the Weed City, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, but at this time, the vigilant sect is here. In this place of extreme distrust between people, their teachings are like fish in water. Not only has the probability of people's survival been improved, but this distrust has been rationalized, sanctified and softened, so that a relatively stable redstone set exists."

"Gaudi is a half-blood." Bai Chen pointed out a fact.

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"There may be love between the two groups that hate again, and there will also be neutrals.

"Gaudi should represent the third largest group of Redstone Collection, the Fusionist."

While they were talking, they got in the car, exited the Red Stone Set, and returned to the hotel camp.

Room 127 is at the other end, closer to the small lake in the Old World Park.

Outside this simple house, guarded two strong-looking men, both of whom were of Red River race, dressed in black, fully armed and unsmiling.

Shang Jian Yao moved closer and "looked down" at the other party:

"We are relic hunters, looking for Lehman to investigate the arms robbery."

This time he "contacted" because he might need to make "friends."

When he asked, Jiang Baimian swept around and found that there were several simple houses around Room 127, all of whom were looking at it.

There are a lot of Lehman's men... While she was silently talking to herself, a guard knocked on the door and entered the room to report.

After waiting for another few minutes, the guard came out and said to Shang Jian Yao:

"Mr. Lehman gave you two words:

"One, we had already left at the time, and what happened afterwards was completely unclear;

"Second, if you only have four people, it is better to give up as soon as possible and change the task."
