Chapter 17 On the Road (Monday

Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong, and Bai Chen were stunned, but they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

It turns out that what you call participation is whether to "sing" with those wild beasts... After Long Yuehong regained her thoughts, she wanted to say this, but he felt that in this atmosphere, whoever cares about Shang Jianyao will lose.

After a few seconds, Jiang Baimian laughed and said:

"Bai Chen, you forgot to be on guard all around you!

"Shang Jianyao, even if there are dozens of wilderness robbers, they may not be able to deal with us. You have broken down the defense system from the inside with your own strength!"

Shang Jianyao nodded seriously and said:

“So I thought about it.

"And, I'm in the process of being in a hurry."

"I was indeed a little surprised, but I didn't relax my guard against the surroundings." Bai Chen forced his explanation.

She was a little ashamed of her dereliction of duty just now.

As a human who has been wandering in the wilderness for many years, she has experienced many wanderers with mental breakdown and abnormal states, and there are many. The words and deeds of those people are much more exaggerated than Shang Jianyao.

But the problem is that Shang Jianyao acted normally most of the time, so normal that Bai Chen felt that he was just making jokes occasionally and making pranks.

She never expected that the other party would be so "creative".

"Yes, keep your alert at any time." Jiang Baimian did not expose Bai Chen's words, tilted his head slightly, looked at Shang Jianyao with a smile, "When this training is over, it is indeed necessary to do a mental assessment of all members."

Shang Jianyao applauded softly:

"I wish you full marks!"

Bai Chen didn't expect Jiang Baimian to tell the mental assessment so carelessly, because it would obviously seriously stimulate Shang Jianyao. Although she had proposed this before, Shang Jianyao was not too exaggerated at that time, and was barely within the normal range. At most, he liked to tell jokes, so the direction of the proposal was not strong.

Similarly, Bai Chen didn't expect Shang Jianyao to care at all, just like it was just an exaggerated prank just now.

Or, he had long recognized his state and accepted such a self. He was not inferior at all or sensitive at all. Bai Chen shook his head and reminded himself that no matter what others do, he should do his job well and not be affected.

At this time, Jiang Baimian looked down at the electronic watch on his wrist:

"Okay, take turns to rest.

"It should be that I and Bai Chen and I are in the same group, Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong, and I take turns to rest, but you two have no experience and it is easy to ignore some signs. Moreover, when you go out for the field, there are many dangers and limited conditions, so there is no need for everyone to force differentiate between men and women. Being honest and trusting each other is the most important thing. So, Shang Jianyao and I are in the same group, Bai Chen and Long Yuehong."

Speaking of this, Jiang Baimian smiled:

"Actually, the conditions are very good this time. There is a jeep in the front row of bed and the other sleeps in the back seat, so it will not disturb the other party at all."

Bai Chen nodded after hearing this:

"I used to sleep in the same tent with two men, two women, a pig, and two chickens."

Jiang Baimian then stood up:

"Okay, you guys go and rest. Shang Jianyao and I will start to be on the night."

She looked down at her watch again:

"You guys have six hours."

"Team leader, will this be too long?" Bai Chen was not too relieved.

It takes six hours from now on, and you will go through the most tired and sleepy stage of the human physiological cycle, and it is easy to ignore the abnormal movements around you.

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"The three of us have been genetically modified, and we have one thing in common: we are full of energy.

"I should be stronger than them in this regard, and I can maintain good concentration without sleeping for a day or two."

"I can..." Long Yuehong muttered.

Jiang Baimian turned his head and looked at him:

"What did you say?

"Are you talking bad about me behind my back?"

"He didn't!" Shang Jianyao replied quickly, "He said in front of you!"

Long Yuehong was choked and coughed out a sound.

Jiang Baimian waved his hand and said to Shang Jianyao:

"It's normal for you to be like this. Okay, you two should go to bed quickly."

Finally, she looked at Bai Chen and Long Yuehong and said.

No accident happened that night. When the sun rose from the horizon and dyed the clouds golden red, the four members of the "old tuner group" were already gathered around the bonfire, drinking warm water and gnawing on the energy bar.

"It's so beautiful, so spectacular..." Long Yuehong looked at the direction of the sunrise and found that her vocabulary was so sparse.

The magnificent scene and the picture containing infinite vitality made Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao, who came to the surface for the first time, feel their body and mind cleansed, and feel some indescribable beauty and hope.

"The first time I saw the sunrise that was even worse than you." Jiang Baimian did not laugh at them.

Bai Chen also looked at the sunrise, but didn't say anything.

As a human born and raised in the wilderness, she has long been accustomed to sunrise, but she still feels inexplicably happy and excited every time she sees it.

"Okay, pack up and get ready to go. Long Yuehong, you and Bai Chen sit in the back row and make up for a while. Shang Jianyao and I will take turns to leave." Jiang Baimian stood up and said after filling his water bag.

"Yes, team leader!" Long Yuehong withdrew her gaze and responded loudly.

After dealing with the bonfire, he saw the empty shells of the cans he ate last night were thrown on the ground:

"Team leader, won't you recycle it?"

"Pangu organisms" are located underground and lack mineral deposits. Metal resources have always been in a very difficult state. They must exchange their own grain, genetically modified stock solution, biological agents, underground brine and salt extracted from rock surfaces for corresponding materials with other major forces.

Jiang Baimian looked back and said in silence for two seconds:

"Need not.

"Take up space."

After saying that, she opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.

Since the team leader said so, Long Yuehong resisted the urge to recycle, held the gun and quickly returned to the car.

The simulated engine sounded, and the gray-green four-door jeep opened out of the open space with dense solar charging panels, away from this small ruin.

A few minutes later, a dark shadow came out from behind the semi-collapsed complex and tiptoed to the extinguished bonfire.

"He" sometimes pauses, covers the plants and the residual walls, sometimes crawls, and moves forward with his elbows alternately.

When "he" confirmed that the four people had actually left before, "he" bounced up suddenly, rushed to the bonfire, and picked up the few metal-cast canned empty shells.

"He" was wearing a black linen and carrying a rifle. He was about 1.6 meters tall. His face had no skin or flesh, and he had only silver-black metal.

There are many cracks on the metal surface, which vaguely reveals lines and components of different colors below.

One of his eyes flashed with red light, the other had long been "extinguished", and his hands seemed like skeletons, made of purely silver-black metal.

This is an intelligent robot.

"Pick it up, pick it up..." It made a monotonous sound without ups and downs, holding the can empty shells, and ran back to the back of the ruins.

After turning around, it drilled into a steel bar and concrete was randomly built to separate the hole.

There was a boy wrapped in a shabby cotton jacket and surrounded by animal fur in the hole.

The child is only twelve or thirteen years old, his face is dirty, his fingernails are covered with black mud, and a ragged tricycle filled with all kinds of debris and garbage is parked next to him.

He took the canned shells and showed an unconcealed smile.

Then, while dividing the canned shells into three groups and putting them into different piles of debris, he smiled at the intelligent robot:

"Xiao Qi, this one is almost full, and I can give you a new eye.

"We have to save some money here. Winter is coming, and we need to change a lot of food, coal, and your battery.

"If you go back, change the ones here..."

As he said that, the boy scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly:

“There is almost no food.

“I’ve eaten a little bit lately…”

Xiaoqi nodded vigorously, still in that tone without any ups and downs:

“It was well arranged.”

"Get in the car quickly and we'll go back to the settlement." The boy took the tricycle driving position.

In the beeping sound, he drove the tricycle into the distance between the narrow and bumpy ruins and plants that could hardly be called road.

While driving, he said to the intelligent robot behind:

"Xiao Qi, you said, after winter, will mom and dad come back?"

…………

The jeep kept moving forward unfastly on the black swamp wilderness.

It was almost noon, Bai Chen, who was driving, suddenly frowned after turning:

“There are groups of people in front…”

Before Jiang Baimian was waiting for Jiang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to respond, she added in a deep voice:

"They saw us."
