Whether the Awakened was born with the catastrophe that destroyed the old world or existed before that, the "Old Tune Team" has lacked enough clues in the past to make effective guesses.
There are many people like them, and many historical researchers and antiquarians privately wonder if the disaster brought about two aberrations in human beings, one is physical, so it gives rise to a second person, and the other is spiritual, so there is an awakened person.
This is because they could not conclude from the old world text data and various artifacts obtained that there were awakened people in the old world, and they could not even find the corresponding traces.
After the "Old Tune Group" came into contact with Yan Hu and Dimarco, they pushed the time node of the Awakened Emperor's appearance from the late Chaotic Age to the early stage, and believed that at that time, there was no "Hall of Stars", and there was no ritualistic process of exchanging three abilities for the sake of the price, but they could never confirm whether there were Awakened people earlier.
Now, through the past of Linhe Village recreated in the Buddhist Holy Land, they saw for the first time evidence that the existence of the Awakened was suspected of existing 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's thoughts turned around, he thought for a while, and said slowly:
"The main project of the Eighth Research Institute is to study the awakening of mankind, and in this process, they came into contact with the incarnation of the year and discovered the 'new world', so they developed great ambitions and tried to build a staircase to the forbidden area of the gods, bringing about a disaster that almost destroyed all mankind?"
This speculation is made by combining the current situation with the past gains of the "old tune group".
Bai Chen heard this, and was silent for a few seconds and said:
"I suspect that the people of the Eighth Research Institute have built a staircase to the forbidden area of the gods."
"What do you say?" Long Yuehong's eyes widened slightly.
Bai Chen calmly pronounced the nouns:
"'Hall of Stars', 'Sea of Origin', 'Corridor of the Mind', 'New World'.
"Further up, it may be the 'forbidden area of the gods'."
Slapping, Shang Jianyao clapped his hands.
He said excitedly:
"If you enter the 'forbidden area of the gods', you may become a year of execution."
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 softly:
"From this point of view, the 'Hall of Stars' series of things that did not exist may really be the stairs leading to the 'forbidden area of the gods'.
"But the Eighth Research Institute seems to have paid the price, and has completely become a lackey of darkness, 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 during the discussion.
They are having a good time under the leadership of Xiao Chong, and there is nothing else unusual for the time being.
Suddenly, Shang Jianyao frowned.
He kept winking, trying to get the attention of his teammates and ask him what he was worried about.
Unfortunately, it was already dark, and Jiang Baimian and others turned off the flashlight in order not to attract the anomaly, hiding on the side of the old locust tree, and only relying on telescopes to observe.
In such an environment, no one could notice Shang Jianyao's small expression on his face.
Finally, Shang Jianyao couldn't bear it, suppressed his voice, and said "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 heavily:
"There are thirteen years, and just after the twelve months plus the leap month or the whole year, someone enters the 'forbidden area of the gods', where can we find a new month for him to take charge?"
"Maybe it's a certain month to be in charge together?" Long Yuehong tried to guess.
"It may also be that the new director is born in the year and the old one is dead." Bai Chen expressionlessly said a terrifying possibility just thinking about it.
Jiang Baimian did not speak and began to associate this matter with the dispute in the "New World".
Shang Jianyao smiled and talked about his "answer":
"Maybe it will degenerate from the year of the year to the day of the day, in that case, there will be more than 300 vacant seats!"
Holding the day? On duty...... Doesn't that sound too good...... Long Yuehong muttered a couple of words to herself.
After talking about the matter of "holding the day", Shang Jianyao looked at the entrance of Linhe Village again with satisfaction.
He held the telescope and said:
"Why don't I say hello and get in touch with Xiao Chong when I was a child?
"I think they are almost going back after setting off the fireworks, so it will be difficult to observe at that time."
Before Jiang Baimian could make a decision, Shang Jianyao had already run out, shouting as he ran:
"Xiao Chong! Xiao Chong!"
After all, a mentally ill person who has always been able to control himself cannot be considered a real mentally ill person, but the price of saying a few paragraphs of group crosstalk every day is not the real price, Jiang Baimian was a little annoyed, annoyed that he was thinking too much about the dispute about the "new world" just now, and failed to grab the collar of the feeder in time, or stopped his left hand with flashing electric sparks in front of him.
In this scene, the only thing they can do is step back together and try their best to distance themselves.
"Xiao Chong! Xiao Chong!"
As Shang Jianyao approached, the figures of the children led by Xiao Chong quickly faded and dissipated into the dark night.
Further away, the lights in Linhe Village went out at the same time.
There was dead silence again, desolate and cold.
Shang Jianyao stopped and said quickly:
"I'm sorry! Excuse me!
"I'll leave now!"
He turned his body abruptly and stomped back to the old locust tree.
Unfortunately, the anomaly in Linhe Village has not been restored.
Seeing Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looking over at the same time, Shang Jianyao sincerely apologized:
"I was wrong."
He had such a correct attitude, Jiang Baimian was not easy to educate again, and thought for a while:
"Wait a little longer, let's see if it will be continued later."
"Okay!" Shang Jianyao replied very loudly.
The "Old Tune Group" waited for nearly 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 a solution.
Shang Jianyao glanced at Linhe Village that blended into the night, and then looked down at the old locust tree.
He immediately showed a vicious expression and said "Hey":
"Why don't you dig up Du Shaochong's bones and bury them again?"
This is a reproduction of the matter of being buried in peace.
"He's your good friend!" Jiang Baimian is angry and funny.
Seeing that the current Shang Jianyao was dismissive of this, she added:
"This is the incarnation of 'Zhuangsheng'."
If he really wanted to dig it out like this, he might anger "Zhuang Sheng", and He could definitely use the bones to establish a solid "New World" node.
The ruthless Shang Jianyao's expression gradually softened, and he nodded in fear and said:
"Indeed."
Jiang Baimian turned to say:
"Let's first withdraw to camp one kilometer away, and after dawn, we will try to explore Xialinhe Village to see what we can find.
"If not, check if there will be any abnormalities when it gets dark."
Long Yuehong and Bai Chen had no objections, Shang Jianyao did not dare to have any objections, he thought he was guilty.
…………
Almost two kilometers away from Linhe Village, the place where the "old tune team" camped.
After a simple dinner, Jiang Baimian ordered Shang Jianyao to be vigilant, and he called Long Yuehong and Bai Chen over.
"Team leader, is there something wrong?" Bai Chen asked directly.
Jiang Baimian said seriously:
"The company's concealment of the ruins of Swamp No. 1 is a matter of Dajiang City, which makes me have certain doubts about why the big boss wants to establish a company and provide shelter.
"This is combined with the story of the Fourth Research Institute that Hey told about, which is indeed quite intriguing.
"The company is our home, our relatives and friends are all in the underground building, I will not be hostile to the company for nothing, nor will I ignore these doubts, so I plan to arrange tasks as soon as possible after this training, leave the company, and find out the whereabouts of Yao's father and the location of the Eighth Research Institute through investigations.
"I believe that by that time, we should be able to get an answer and determine what to do in the future.
"This is my choice, and there is a high probability that I will do the same, but I don't force you to do the same."
Speaking of this, Jiang Baimian smiled bitterly:
"Actually, I don't know what kind of choice I want you to make.
"You can act together or stay within the company and enjoy the peace and stability waiting for us to bring back the answers.
"The former is very dangerous and can die at any time, while the latter may wait for good news, bad news, or before any news arrives, they suddenly face the company's changes.
"Well, you don't have to make a decision in a hurry, just tell me your choice before returning to the company."
Bai Chen didn't answer, and looked sideways at Long Yuehong.
Long Yuehong was silent for a while, and said with a self-deprecating smile:
"Knowing so much, how can I stay in the company with peace of mind......
"Besides, I'm also afraid that after a long time, someone will quietly look through my memories."
Bai Chen's expression relaxed obviously, and then said:
"Knowing the answer in advance can prepare in advance and rescue our relatives and friends within the company in time."
Her choice speaks for itself.
Long Yuehong then exhaled:
"I think so too."
Snapping, the patrol merchant Jianyao applauded.
