Embers Ad Infinitum - Vol 2.4 Chapter 15
Looking at the shopping mall-style building where Yan Hu was imprisoned, the reckless Shang Jianyao said cheerfully:
“This is the place where you can’t find your way through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!”
“But the fact is, we haven’t stepped on the iron shoes at all, and haven’t tried to find Yan Hu.” The honest Shang Jianyao refuted his colleagues.
The reckless Shang Jianyao was right about this:
“We have thought about this!”
Without giving other Shang Jianyao a chance to refute, he pointed to the mall and said:
“Let’s go now.”
“Are you crazy?” The vicious Shang Jianyao blurted out, “Do you know what’s going on inside? Don’t implicate us if you want to die!”
The reckless business sees Yao Zhen eloquently:
“We have Xiaochong’s tiger skin now, who dares to stop us, and who doesn’t give us some face?”
“How can you be sure that those who detain Yan Hu are not a certain Zhi Sui?” The vicious and vicious Shang Jianyao first asked a question, and then considering that he had become a minority, he made a good-natured suggestion, “Even if If you want to go in and find Yan Hu, you must first find a few friendly ‘New World’ powerhouses nearby to inquire about the situation of the building.”
The reckless Shang Jianyao sneered:
“You are cowardly!
“It’s safe to find other New World’ strongmen nearby? They might be the caretakers of this building!”
While speaking, he took big strides towards the place where Yan Hu was imprisoned.
“You brainless guy, think you can do whatever you want with Xiaochong’s tiger skin?” The sinister Shang Jianyao could no longer control himself.
Under his all-out resistance, Shang Jianyao mixed his left foot with his right foot and completed a flat fall.
“coward!”
“Silly X!”
“You two calm down.”
The businessmen started a fierce internal struggle, and it was manifested in that he was obviously alone, but sometimes trotted, sometimes rubbed against the wall, sometimes stood upside down, sometimes climbed back, sometimes held a street light pole, and was unwilling to move forward, just followed the front. There are several invisible enemies fighting with him.
Finally, the reckless Shang Jianyao and his supporters, who had been strong during this period of time, won the final victory.
Shang Jianyao swaggered to the mall-style building and walked in with his head held high.
With a snap, a certain lamp inside the building lit up with his arrival, shedding pure white brilliance.
This is indeed a large shopping mall, with straight ladders, escalators, a place where you can see the dome at a glance, and a layered area.
Shang Jianyao glanced at the layout of the place at random, and walked to the escalator in front of the side easily and naturally, without doing too much observation.
The escalator was powered and carried him up slowly.
In a small city, in a building.
Jiang Baimian resisted the urge to raise his hand and rub his eyes.
As an awakened person in the field of “Broken Mirror”, she confirmed that the “intentional ones” just now were not her hallucinations, and that they disappeared in front of her eyes for real.
After calming down, Jiang Baimian continued to observe, trying to confirm.
During this process, she is also “examining” the activities of those “unintentional”, trying to distinguish which ones are ordinary and which ones have the ability of awakened ones.
What puzzled her was that the “unintentional” people who appeared at the moment were all doing specific things, and there was no so-called “supervisor”, which made her unable to see who had a higher status.
After a long period of observation, Jiang Baimian analyzed the work of those “unintentional people” and initially divided them into two categories:
One is to maintain the integrity and normality of the power supply lines, and the other is to ensure the life of the current ethnic group and improve the surrounding environment.
Thinking of this, Jiang Baimian’s heart moved:
“The latter category is a by-product of the core work that these ‘mindless ones’ need to survive.
“In other words, someone implanted them with corresponding thinking to ensure the normal operation of the power system…
“Does this mean that the area where the tower is located contains some important items that require electricity to maintain?”
The reason Jiang Baimian used objects instead of machines was because she remembered that the reason why the ruins of Swamp 1 had been supplied with electricity for decades was that Xiaochong wanted to play games.
Although the game console is also a machine, there is still a certain difference from the machine Jiang Baimian thought of subconsciously.
In the transfer of his thoughts, Jiang Baimian saw several “unintentional people” coming over.
Immediately she held her breath and focused.
As before, the few “Mindless People” disappeared without a trace as soon as they crossed an invisible boundary on the way to the area around the tower.
“New World”, in the shopping mall where Yan Hu was imprisoned.
Shang Jian Yao was walking in the dark, watching the lights follow him and turn on in turn, then turn off step by step.
According to his previous speculation and Jiang Baimian’s calculations, he knew that Yan Hu was on the fourth floor, and there was only a faint light that was about to go out.
It didn’t take long for Shang Jianyao to arrive at his destination and saw a gray-white shutter door blocking the entrance.
“Nothing happened.” The reckless Shang Jianyao glanced left and right, and smiled complacently, “Let me just say, who would dare to stand in front of Xiaochong’s friend?”
Others chose to remain silent.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Shang Jianyao slapped the rolling shutter door hard.
“Is there anyone? Is there anyone?” he shouted loudly while slapping.
After shouting several times, he shook his head in disappointment:
“Has Yan Hu been deprived of his senses? There is no response at all…”
When he was knocking on the door just now, he noticed that the situation here was really similar to what he had experienced before:
The doors seem to be welded to the wall, and the wall is indestructible!
In other words, he couldn’t break in violently.
The sinister Shang Jianyao responded coldly to his colleagues:
“You are so loud that you suppress a lot of voices.”
“Yes!” Shang Jianyao said with his right fist and left palm.
He fell silent and put his ear to the rolling shutter.
In the silence, Shang Jianyao heard a small and weak voice:
“help me
“Sure enough, it’s you, Yan Hu!” Shang Jianyao responded excitedly, as if he had met old friends in a foreign land.
“Save me…” Yan Hu’s cry for help was as thin as a gnat.
Shang Jian Yao rubbed his chin and said with a smile:
“I can’t open the door right now.
“If you want to save you, I’m afraid you have to fully understand the cause and effect of the matter and find out where the problem lies.”
The rolling shutter seems to have some kind of shielding effect. It stands to reason that Yan Hu is weak and hungry, close to a coma, and will instinctively try to extract the human consciousness around him, but Shang Jianyao has no feeling at all.
After Shang Jianyao repeated the words several times, Yan Hu finally had a reaction:
“Who are you… know me?
“I saw your body on Huxin Island.” The honest Shang Jianyao never lied, “I have to know what happened to you before I can find a way to save you.
As far as Yan Hu is concerned, under the current circumstances, dead horses have to be treated as living horse doctors, not to mention that the other party has expressed his willingness to help him.
Even if it was a trap, he would jump into it without hesitation.
Therefore, he forcibly cheered up and said intermittently:
“At the beginning, when I entered here, not long after, I suddenly became stupid and couldn’t think about anything.
“Then, there was a voice that asked me to come here, I came over in a daze, and was locked in this room.
“In the beginning, I was too eager to extract a large amount of my believers’ consciousness to supplement my own consumption, which led to them either dying,
Or it has become, ‘Heartless One’, who can no longer provide me with food.
“Later, whenever I was about to starve to death, someone would provide me with some food, so that I could die and die, live and live, and always remain this weak bear.”
“Who is providing you with food?” Shang Jianyao asked.
“I haven’t seen it before, and I don’t know who it is.” Yan Hu replied angrily.
Shang Jianyao changed his angle:
“Who made you stupid?”
“I don’t know.” Yan Hu’s tone was filled with hatred that could not be concealed.
“This is very similar to the ‘Aura of Stupidity’, the awakened person in the field of ‘Zhuang Sheng’.” Shang Jianyao said to himself.
He didn’t let Yan Hu spend too much energy on this meaningless issue~www.mtlnovel.com~ sincerely ask for advice:
“What do you think that person locked you up for?
“Well, if you find the motive for the crime, you can target the corresponding suspect.”
Yan Hu didn’t care about his peculiar metaphor, and said after a long silence:
“I suspect, he wants, my body.”
“What?” Shang Jianyao was shocked, “Is that a rapist?”
It doesn’t matter if it’s male or female.
Yan Hu said a while ago, and his words became a little smoother:
“No, I’m not, that’s what I mean.
“I still have, when I have enough food, to observe the situation here from the window.
“The lights rarely go out here, which means it’s hard for them to get back to reality.
“Here, here may be a spiritual prison.”
Papapa, Shang Jianyao applauded for Yan Hu:
“It’s really amazing that you can come to this conclusion from observation alone.”
Yan Hu didn’t have the energy to be polite, so he said to himself:
“Those who deal with me may want to transfer their consciousness into my body when the opportunity arises, so as to escape back to reality.
“My neighbor Montis has such an ability, and even if he doesn’t have it, he can achieve his goal by obtaining and corresponding props.
“If I didn’t, I guessed wrong, that person is still in different places, with several people like me locked up, more choices, and preparedness.”
