Embers Ad Infinitum

Vol 2 Chapter 13: choose

As for whether the Awakeners were produced with the disaster that destroyed the old world, or existed before that, the "Old Tune Group" has always lacked enough clues to make effective guesses.

There are many others similar to them, and many historical researchers and antiquarians privately wonder if the disaster brought two kinds of aberrations in human beings, one is physical, which gave rise to subhumans, and the other is Spiritually, there are awakeners. .

This is because they can't draw the conclusion that there are awakened people in the old world from the old world written materials and various artifacts they obtained, and they can't even find the corresponding traces.

After coming into contact with Yan Hu and DiMarco, the "Old Tune Team" pushed the time node of the Awakeners' appearance from the late chaotic era to the early stage, and believed that at that time, there was no "Star Hall" and no exchange of three abilities at one price. Ritualization process, but they have never been able to confirm whether there was an Awakened earlier.

Now, through the past of Linhe Village reappeared in the Buddhist Holy Land, they saw for the first time evidence that there were suspected awakened people many years before the destruction of the old world.

This makes the truth about the destruction of the old world even more confusing.

Jiang Baimian thought about it for a while, then slowly said:

"The main project of the Eighth Research Institute is to study the awakening of human beings. In the process, they came into contact with the incarnated body of the old age and discovered the 'new world', so they had great ambitions to try to build a gateway to the forbidden area of ​​​​the gods. Ladder, brought about a catastrophe that almost wiped out all mankind?"

This guess is based on a combination of the current situation and the past gains of the "Old Tune Group".

Bai Chen heard the words and said after a few seconds of silence:

"I suspect that the people of the Eighth Research Institute have built a ladder to the forbidden area of ​​​​the gods."

"How?" Long Yuehong's eyes widened slightly.

Bai Chen calmly read out the nouns:

"'The Hall of Stars', 'Sea of ​​Origins', 'Spiritual Corridor', 'New World'.

"Further up, maybe it's the 'God Forbidden Zone'."

Papapa, Shang Jianyao applauded.

He said excitedly:

"Entering the 'God Forbidden Zone' may become Zhi Sui."

Long Yuehong wanted to reply to the last two sentences, but she was inexplicably frightened and did not dare to discuss it.

At this time, Jiang Baimian exhaled lightly:

"From this point of view, the series of things that did not exist in the 'Hall of Stars' may really be the stairs leading to the 'God Forbidden Area'.

"But the Eighth Research Institute seems to have paid the price, and has completely become a lackey in the dark, working hard to do certain things, like a slave."

The four members of the "Old Tune Group" did not relax their observation of the group of children at the entrance of Linhe Village.

They are playing happily under the leadership of Xiaochong, and there is no other abnormality for the time being.

Suddenly, Shang Jianyao frowned.

He kept winking, trying to get the attention of his teammates, asking what was bothering him.

Unfortunately, it was already dark. Jiang Baimian and others turned off the flashlight in order not to attract the abnormality, and hid it on the side of the old locust tree, and only observed it with binoculars.

In such an environment, no one could notice the small expression on Shang Jianyao's face.

Finally, Shang Jianyao couldn't bear it any longer, suppressing his voice, "Hey".

"What's wrong?" Jiang Baimian asked.

Shang Jianyao immediately replied:

"I just thought of a question."

"What's the problem?" Long Yuehong looked sideways at this guy.

Shang Jianyao said solemnly:

"There are thirteen years old, and just after the allocation of twelve months plus leap month or the whole year, if someone enters the 'God's forbidden area', how can he find a new month for him to take charge of?"

"Maybe they will be in charge of a certain month together?" Long Yuehong tried to guess.

"It may also be that the new one is born and the old one is dead." Bai Chen expressionlessly said a possibility that was terrifying just thinking about it.

Jiang Baimian did not speak, and began to associate this matter with the disputes in the "New World".

Shang Jianyao smiled and talked about his "answer":

"Perhaps it has degenerated from obedience to age, and in that case, there will be more than 300 vacancies!"

Executive day? On duty... This doesn't sound too good... Long Yuehong mumbled to herself.

After talking about the matter of "Execution of the Sun", Shang Jianyao looked at the entrance of Linhe Village again with satisfaction.

He took the telescope and said:

"How about I go say hello and get in touch with Xiao Chong when I was a child?

"I think they are going back after the fireworks are set off, so it will be difficult to observe by then."

Before Jiang Baimian could make a decision, Shang Jianyao had already rushed out, shouting as he ran:

"Xiao Chong! Xiao Chong!"

Long Yuehong and others are already numb to this kind of thing. After all, a mental patient who has always been able to control himself cannot be regarded as a real mental patient, but the price of talking a few paragraphs of cross talk every day is not the real price, Jiang Baimian is a little annoyed, annoyed He was thinking too much about the disputes in the "New World" just now, and he failed to grab the collar of the feeder in time, or stopped his left hand, which was flickering with electric sparks, in front of him.

In this scene, the only thing they can do is to step back and try to distance themselves.

"Xiao Chong! Xiao Chong!"

As Shang Jianyao approached, the figures of the children headed by Xiao Chong quickly faded and disappeared into the dark night.

Farther away, the lights in Linhe Village went out at the same time.

There was dead silence again, desolate and desolate.

Shang Jianyao stopped and said quickly:

"sorry for disturbance!

"I'm leaving now!"

He turned around suddenly and ran back to the old locust tree.

Unfortunately, the abnormality in Linhe Village did not recover.

Seeing Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looking over at the same time, Shang Jianyao sincerely apologized:

"I was wrong."

His attitude is so correct, Jiang Baimian is not good at re-education, he thought about it and said:

"Wait a little longer and see if it will continue later."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao answered very loudly.

The "old tune group" waited for another half an hour in the cold wind, and Linhe Village was still dark and silent.

"Wait a little longer?" Long Yuehong felt that this was not an option.

Shang Jianyao glanced at Linhe Village, which merged into the night, and then lowered his head to look under the old locust tree.

He immediately showed a sinister expression, and said "hey":

"How about digging up Du Shaochong's body and burying it again?"

This is to reproduce the matter of being buried in the ground.

"He's your good friend!" Jiang Baimian was angry and funny.

Seeing that the current Shang Jianyao dismissed this, she added:

"This is the incarnation of 'Zhuang Sheng'."

If he really wants to dig it out like this, he might anger "Zhuang Sheng", and he can definitely use the bones to establish a stable "new world" node.

The ruthless Shang Jianyao's expression gradually softened, and he nodded in fear and said:

"really."

Jiang Baimian turned and said:

"We first retreated to camp one kilometer away, and after dawn, we tried to explore Xialinhe Village to see what we could find.

"If not, confirm whether there will be an abnormality when it gets dark next time."

Long Yuehong and Bai Chen had no opinion, Shang Jianyao did not dare to have any opinion, he thought he was guilty.

…………

About two kilometers away from Linhe Village, the "old tune group" camped.

After a brief dinner, Jiang Baimian instructed Shang Jianyao to be vigilant around him, while he called Long Yuehong and Bai Chen over.

"Team leader, what's the matter?" Bai Chen asked directly.

Jiang Baimian said sternly:

"The company's concealment of the ruins of Swamp 1 is a matter of Dajiang City, which made me have some doubts about why the big boss established the company and provided shelter.

[In other words, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books at present, Mimi Read, install the latest version. 】

"It's really intriguing when combined with what Hey told about the Fourth Research Institute.

"The company is our home, and our relatives and friends are in the underground building. I won't be hostile to the company~www.readwn.com~ and I won't ignore these doubts, so I plan to arrange tasks as soon as possible after this training. , leaving the company, and by investigating the whereabouts of Shang Jianyao's father and the location of the Eighth Research Institute, step by step, he will find out the truth about the destruction of the old world, and what exactly the old people want to do.

"I believe that by that time, we should be able to get an answer to determine what to do in the future.

"This is my choice, and I will probably do the same, but I don't force you to do the same."

Having said this, Jiang Baimian smiled bitterly:

"Actually I don't know what choice I want you to make.

"You can act together, or you can stay in the company, enjoy the peace and stability, and wait for us to bring back the answers.

"The former is very dangerous, and people may die at any time, while the latter may wait for good news or bad news, or suddenly face the company's changes without waiting for any news.

"Well, you don't have to rush to make a decision, just tell me your options before returning to the company."

Bai Chen didn't answer, and looked sideways at Long Yuehong.

Long Yuehong was silent for a while, then laughed at himself:

"I know so much, how can I stay in the company with peace of mind...

"Besides, I'm also afraid that after a long time, people will quietly look through the memory."

Bai Chen's expression was obviously relaxed, and he continued:

"Knowing the answer in advance can prepare in advance and rescue our relatives and friends inside the company in time."

Her choice speaks for itself.

Long Yuehong then exhaled:

"I also think so."
