"Stop!"
The voices shouted by the villagers using loudspeakers can be heard more clearly in the public office.
Shang Jianyao was excited, approached the window, and said to himself:
"If it doesn't stop, will there be a fight?"
"Can't you think of something good?" Jiang Baimian also came to the window.
"I will be useful when I fight." Shang Jianyao said with longing, "Mediate, persuade, so that the two parties can finally become friends."
You don't have to fight, you can also make both parties friends, why do you have to go around in such a big circle? Long Yuehong couldn't understand Shang Jianyao's thinking at all, but she didn't question it.
As if sensing his heart, Shang Jianyao looked at the bridge across the mountain stream, sighed and said:
"It seems like we can't fight......
"So I have no reason to intervene."
The team with the more tattered vehicles stopped on the other side of the bridge, obeying the rules.
"Hey, are you famous for this set now?" Jiang Baimian responded funny.
The logic is quite strict...... Long Yuehong muttered in her heart.
At this time, the villagers guarding the bridge used the loudspeaker and asked:
"Where are you from, what are you here for?"
At the passenger seat of the car at the front of the team, a man wrapped in a fur coat leaned out his upper body and responded loudly:
"Coming from the north, trade something."
"North ......" Long Yuehong repeated the word.
"The north side of Cliff Village belongs to the ice field." The honest Gnawa opened his mouth to introduce.
Bai Chen, who was also staring at the bridge area, pursed his lips and said:
"They're lying.
"The ice fields in this season must still be snowing, and there is a lot of white everywhere, and there is no trace of their cars."
The villagers guarding the bridge, who are quite familiar with the ice field, also asked similar questions:
"There is no snow on the ice field?"
Shang Jianyao became excited again, and muttered:
"If this convoy has awakeners, won't Cliff Village be able to stop it, and there is no way to stop them from crossing the bridge?"
Not all human settlements have awakeners, or even the vast majority of none.
And when encountering those awakened people who are good at manipulating people's hearts, even if the settlements that lack the corresponding power are armed with teeth, they will be unable to defend against them, like a sealed can, seemingly indestructible, sooner or later they will be stripped of their hard shells.
According to the observation of the "Old Tune Team", the possibility of awakening in Cliff Village is very low.
Of course, this does not include the "Pangu Creatures" team coming and going.
Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
"As long as you don't encounter an ability coverage of more than 500 meters, or an awakened person like you who can use electronic products and your own voice to exert influence remotely, Cliff Village still has a certain defense ability.
"In addition to sending people to guard the bridge, there is also a monitoring room on the top floor of the office, where two villagers are always on duty, watching the situation on the bridge from a distance of three or four hundred meters.
"As soon as they find something wrong, they will immediately notify the village chief, activate the device, and blow up the bridge."
Jiang Baimian paused for a moment and then said:
"Hmm...... This can only guard against the kind of hard break-in, the awakened person really has to put down his body and hide in the dark, one by one affecting the people who leave the village and guarding the bridge, sooner or later they will be able to achieve the purpose of intrusion, but it is relatively roundabout a lot."
As soon as she finished speaking, the man who had responded to the bridge keeper said loudly:
"We went to the south to make some deals first, and it took more than ten days."
This explains their current situation...... Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief.
He doesn't like fighting by nature.
The villagers guarding the bridge seemed to remember the identity of this group:
"You guys......
"Go to Shanao Town, and someone will look for you when you come back."
The people of Cliff Village call the abandoned town used for outsider trading as Shandao Town.
"Okay!" The people in that convoy did not say anything, and skillfully disappeared along the mountain road opposite the cliff village.
"Let's go......" Shang Jianyao looked disappointed.
Not long after, Jiang Baimian noticed that four villagers from Cliff Village walked out of the public office, got on a black mountain bike, and crossed the bridge to Shanao Town.
Ten minutes later, they returned to the village and entered the public office.
Then, the village chief led them to the warehouse where the supplies were stored.
"A deal." Jiang Baimian withdrew his gaze.
This is one of the most common things to do in Cliff Village in late spring, summer, and early fall.
"It's boring." Shang Jianyao shook his head first, and then came with great interest, "You say, what will they trade? Military exoskeleton devices, old world entertainment materials, new world nodes, nuclear warheads?"
When others didn't know how to respond, Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
"Those things can only be traded by a team like us that is responsible for saving all mankind."
She is half perfunctory and half truthful.
Without the open and covert struggle of some high-level forces, how could the "old tune team" get that nuclear warhead?
Shang Jianyao was immediately satisfied.
At noon, the village chief knocked on the door of the room where they were currently present.
"I heard someone singing at the entrance of the stairs." He smiled and handed out a few pages, "This is the menu, you order it, I will tell someone to do it."
Jiang Baimian took the menu and said with a casual smile:
"It seems that there is a big business in the village?"
"Fortunately, they come several times a year." The village chief replied calmly.
Shang Jianyao asked curiously:
"They are from the ice field?"
"Yes." The village chief nodded, "Ice fields are not inhabitable everywhere."
"Yes." Jiang Baimian echoed, "Some areas have special terrain, chaotic environment, and the climate is similar to that of the south, and some areas are rich in geothermal resources and can be well utilized."
However, similar areas are not large, compared to the entire ice field, they are like ordinary islands in the vast ocean.
"Yes, yes." The village chief agreed, "Their settlement is in the valley, the climate is okay, the land is very fertile, and they can afford to support many people."
Jiang Baimian said "hmm":
"What is the name of their settlement? I see if I've heard of it."
"Year-end city." The village chief did not hide it.
He is undoubtedly biased towards the side of "Pangu Creatures".
This is the food and clothing parents of Cliff Village.
Without waiting for several members of the "Old Tune Group" to ask again, he suppressed his voice and said:
"The strength of the end of the year city is quite strong, and there are often awakeners in the team they send."
As the leader of the relatively important subsidiary forces of "Pangu Creature", the village chief can definitely be called well-informed.
"Awakened One?" Shang Jianyao looked excited.
The village chief said in a low voice:
"Once, they encountered a group of bandits, and as a result, after just looking at each other a few times and saying a few words, the robbers put down their weapons and let them do it."
"Last man" or "Zhuang Sheng" field? Jiang Baimian showed a thoughtful expression.
Shang Jianyao smiled and said:
"Then have you been affected to provide them with supplies for free?"
The village chief quickly explained:
"No, no.
"After they left, we all posted the account more than once, no problem.
"The people of the end of the year city are still very friendly to us, they should not have used their abilities, they are all fair deals, they may know that there is a big force behind us and dare not do anything wrong. Only when there are comings and goings can the business continue to be done."
Hearing this, Long Yuehong suddenly flashed a thought:
"Only those with strength and eyesight can live a long life in this world......"
After chatting about the people in the city at the end of the year mainly exchanging salt, gasoline, industrial products and other materials, Jiang Baimian ordered dishes from the menu.
After the experience of last night's meal, they all felt that Cliff Village was quite ordinary, but the barbecue flavor was good.
When the village chief went downstairs and went to the kitchen, Shang Jianyao suddenly laughed:
"The name Year-end City is very interesting."
"Huh?" Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong, Bai Chen, and Gnawaqi looked at this guy.
Shang Jianyao's smile became brighter and brighter:
"The end of the year is the end of the year, and the end of the year is the 'fate' of the year, our big boss."
…………
Tarnan, Dream Hotel.
The proprietress Aino recently looked at the calendar for the Nth time.
She muttered to herself:
"It's been almost a month, why haven't the awakened people of the 'Mirage Dragon Sect' come yet? What I want is an awakener from the 'last man' realm who can 'hypnotize', not an awakened person from the 'broken mirror' realm who can get lost, how can it be used for so long?"
It's not a thing to have nightmares every day!
Finally, Aino plucked up the courage, changed into the most gorgeous clothes, went out again, came to Nanke Temple, and met Zhou Yue.
She asked politely:
"Lord Zhou Guan, why haven't the awakened people of your sect 'hypnotized' come yet?"
Zhou Yue looked at this person's dress carefully, opened his eyes wide and said:
"Ms. Aino, didn't you choose to give up and adapt to the nightmare yourself?
"So, I didn't apply to the headquarters."
"I didn't!" Aino blurted out, "I look forward to it every day! At that time, I just used 'dreams everywhere, why be serious' to comfort myself so that I could survive the nightmare for a month."
Zhou Yue, in addition to being blind, your brain is not very good?
"You clearly said at the time to let it go, and you won't die." Zhou Yue responded doubtfully.
Uh, I think I probably really said it...... Ainuo thought about it seriously and said:
"But I didn't say I wanted to give up completely!"
"Forget it, forget it." Zhou Yue was too lazy to fight anymore, opened his arms, tilted his body slightly, and looked at the void and said, "Dreams are everywhere, why be serious?"
Aino almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.
She always felt that she and Zhou Yue's memory was different.
It's like asking for help is a fantasy!
Aino couldn't help but look behind Zhou Yue.
There was a shrine there, and inside the shrine, the dragon symbol made of broken mirrors reflected the shimmering light.
