Chapter 794 ahead
Weekend night, 349th floor, Area 12.
Jiang Baimian and his family sat around the dining table, enjoying the leisure time after the meal.
Her nephew and niece admired and curious about this aunt who always went far away, and from time to time they would ask a strange question in an attempt to get an answer.
Seeing that their usually smart and responsive daughter was occasionally hesitant to be asked by the two children, Jiang Wenfeng and Xue Sumei both smiled unconsciously, as if they had seen Jiang Baimian's appearance after marriage.
And Jiang Dening and his wife were so happy that they didn't have to deal with the little ancestors for the time being, pretending not to receive their sister's help.
Jiang Baimian was busy stealing leisure, looked at his father, and pretended to ask casually:
"Dad, do you think the company will move to the ground one day in the future?"
Jiang Wenfeng was stunned for a moment, then sighed slightly:
"Although there are no corresponding signs now, although over the years, the 'inner ecological zone' has become more and more perfect, forming a real cycle, and the living costs of employees are getting thinner and thinner, and it is no longer an unbearable burden, but I always feel that sooner or later, the main body of the company will return to the surface, leaving only some highly confidential projects in the building.
"You, children, always have to live under the blue sky and blow the natural wind."
After all, some wild populations can bring enough benefits, so he regrets that his wife, son, grandson, and granddaughter have not had this opportunity so far, and he does not want his descendants to be trapped in the underground building of "Pangu Creatures" for the rest of their lives, never seeing the light of day.
If Jiang Baimian's current job hadn't been too dangerous, Jiang Wenfeng would have supported her not to transfer to internal affairs and would still run to the ground from time to time.
"Auntie, aunt, what does the natural wind taste like?" After listening to their grandfather's words, the two children asked Jiang Baimian together, their eyes wide open.
For some reason, Jiang Baimian's mind flashed through the scene of the "old tune team" going to the gray soil for the first time, and he remembered what Shang Jianyao said:
"Fresh shit smell."
…………
Jiang Baimian, who had been playing with her children for a long time, felt that she was more tired than dealing with Shang Jianyao, and it was harder than going out to perform tasks, so as soon as she sent her brother's family of four, she immediately washed up and went to bed, ready to sleep.
However, as a self-disciplined person, she still followed her habit and entered the "Sea of Origin", swimming into the distance in the illusory ocean composed of shimmering light, looking for the next island of fear.
While swimming, Jiang Baimian suddenly saw a small black dot appear at the junction of the sea and sky.
"Finally......" she couldn't help but let out an emotional voice.
Then, she picked up her paddle and swam towards the island.
As time passed minute by minute, Jiang Baimian arrived at his destination.
The island had mountains and waters, covered in cyan, which made her feel inexplicably familiar.
Relying on the fear island of the "Sea of Origin", even if he encountered an irresistible danger, he would only exhaust his spirit and force him to withdraw, leaving no sequelae.
She walked around the edge of the island's peak for a while and saw a road into the mountain that was open to vehicles.
Jiang Baimian, who had enough experience in this regard, immediately embodied the jeep of the "old tune team" and drove along the road towards the mountain.
This kind of behavior is actually not fundamentally different from her relying on her feet, it will consume a certain amount of energy, but one more, one less, and more can save time.
And Jiang Baimian's choice is that his time is more precious than the spirit that will soon recover.
After the vehicle moved forward for more than ten minutes, Jiang Baimian felt more and more familiar with the scenery on both sides.
This made her wonder if she was lost or encountered a ghost hitting the wall, always driving the same way.
After careful recall, Jiang Baimian finally woke up:
The reason why she felt that this road was familiar was because it was the only way to return to the company from the Kuronuma Wilderness.
Sure enough, in just a few minutes, Jiang Baimian saw the silver-white metal door at the entrance of the underground building of "Pangu Biology".
She couldn't help but mutter:
"This psychological shadow is still the ...... of the company"
The scene of her second Fear Island is the empty Pangu Creatures underground building.
This time, I actually repeated it!
But thinking that most of his life was spent in the "underground building", and most of the experiences were related to "Pangu creatures", Jiang Baimian felt that it was unexpected and reasonable.
She no longer hesitated, stepped on the accelerator again, and drove the jeep towards the silver-white door.
At this moment, Jiang Baimian suddenly saw a string of fire.
She slammed the steering wheel, causing the jeep to move out in a drifting posture.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Shells covered the area where the vehicle would have passed.
After the bombardment failed to achieve results, lasers and electromagnetic projectiles were aimed at the sideways running jeep and shot out.
Jiang Baimian stepped on the accelerator to the maximum, but not far away was a mountain wall.
She instinctively stepped on the brakes, dodged a wave of attacks, then pressed her seat belt, pushed open the door, and rolled towards an obstacle around her.
She had just rolled halfway, and her body was inexplicably paralyzed and difficult to exert force.
In the next second, a red laser came over and pierced her body.
Jiang Baimian's face suddenly became extremely distorted, and she immediately chose to quit the "Sea of Origin".
In the bedroom, on the bed, she opened her eyes, raised her hand to touch her forehead, and broke out in a cold sweat.
"The company's guards didn't make any confirmation and attacked me directly?" Jiang Baimian said to himself silently, "This shows that subconsciously, I put the company in a hostile position...... The essence of this psychological shadow is my suspicion and insecurity about the company? This should have been small and would not have become a psychological shadow, but the reported situation has deepened the fear in this regard......"
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Baimian gradually sorted out the clues, and she couldn't think of how to break through this island of fear for the time being.
The hometown in her heart has unknowingly become her psychological shadow.
…………
On Monday morning, as soon as Jiang Baimian, who was late, walked into the office and heard Bai Chen say:
"Team leader, Deputy Minister Xiyu is looking for you."
Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully:
"It seems that they are asking about that application."
At this time, Shang Jianyao stood up and took the initiative to ask for help:
"Do you need me to lead the way?"
"No." Although Jiang Baimian could feel that kind of concern, he was not happy at all.
She thought for a while and said:
"Don't do the behavior of not having 300 taels of silver here."
What she meant was not to follow her quietly, and not to do any "thinking guidance", it seemed that it was a very dangerous thing to meet Vice Minister Yu.
Shang Jianyao sighed in disappointment.
After passing through the vice minister's office three times, Jiang Baimian finally found his destination.
Seeing that she was the only one coming, Xiyu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the back chair opposite the table and said:
"Sit down."
"Minister, is there anything wrong?" As soon as Jiang Baimian sat down, he asked bluntly.
Xiyu smiled gently:
"I was still worried about what helpers to find for you after the mission, but you told me that Long Yuehong and Bai Chen could stand on the last shift."
"Actually, it's enough for me to meet with Shang Yao." Jiang Baimian deliberately diverted the topic and did not discuss the matter of Long Yuehong and Bai Chen.
Xiyu shook his head:
"If there are too few people, many things will be inconvenient.
"Well, based on Shang Jianyao's ability, you can find some helpers temporarily."
Since this matter had been resolved, she didn't say much, but asked instead:
"I'm leaving next month, will it be too rushed?
"In that case, when we arrive at the ice field, it will not be summer, and the climate will be worse."
Jiang Baimian has already had a manuscript and talked about it eloquently:
"I think it's better to find the ruins of the city where Shang Jianyao's father last appeared is relatively simple, but it will definitely take a lot of time to find clues, and then lock in the specific location of the Eighth Research Institute, you must be patient enough to catch the fox's tail.
"So, I'm worried that there won't be enough time for a summer, and the ice sheet in April and May is relatively milder than the ice sheet in September and October."
Xiyu thought for a while, nodded lightly and said:
"Then you prepare more cold-proof equipment and high-calorie food."
"Yes, Minister!" Jiang Baimian did not hide his smile.
After that, Xiyu asked a few more detailed questions, all of which were answered satisfactorily.
The itinerary of the "old tune team" was determined.
…………
One day in March, Shang Jianyao and others drove a jeep out of the underground building of "Pangu Biology".
As the fresh air blew in from outside the window, Jiang Baimian felt that his heart was much broader.
She saw that there was a little silence in the car, Bai Chen, Long Yuehong, and Shang Jianyao were trapped in their own thoughts, and no one spoke for a long time, so she deliberately looked at the driver's seat and asked casually:
"Hey, has there been any change in the gap of Xiao Chong?"
"No." Shang Jianyao looked disappointed.
Jiang Baimian asked again:
"Has the owner of room '506' had a dream recently?"
Shang Jianyao shook his head again:
"She seems to have lost the ability to dream.
"I wonder if she found someone to hypnotize her so that she would stop dreaming."
Jiang Baimian thought and asked:
"What time periods have you tried?"
"Half past nine in the evening, at midnight, at three o'clock in the middle of the night, at six o'clock in the morning." Shang Jianyao had no self-awareness that he was working hard.
Jiang Baimian was silent for a while and said:
"If you don't dream at night, you either find a way to control yourself from dreaming, or you don't sleep at all."
"Didn't sleep?" Shang Jianyao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Jiang Baimian said "hmm":
"After that, you try to take a nap."
"Okay!" Shang saw that Yao was as kind as a stream, and his face was excited.
Jiang Baimian ended the topic, looked in the rearview mirror, turned his body halfway, and smiled at Long Yuehong and Bai Chen in the back row:
"I know what you're worried about, but it will only affect your concentration and will not make the situation any better or worse."
"Xiaohong can just say it." Shang Jianyao forcibly interjected.
Jiang Baimian glared at him and continued:
"In that case, it is better to put the problem behind you first, complete the task at hand seriously, and see if you have the desired gain."
Shang Jianyao shouted:
"Yes, yes, listen to the song! Listen to the song!"
Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looked at each other, nodded each, and said separately:
"Okay."
"We'll adjust the state."
At this time, the jeep was like an arrow, driving towards the wilderness and forward.
