Room 14, where the "Old Tunes Group" was located, returned to a solidified silence, and only the sound of his own breathing could be heard faintly.
Now, Shang Jianyao has experienced this situation last time, but at that time Jiang Baimian said that he would stay next door all the time and would not leave.
In the darkness where he couldn't even see with his own fingers, Shang Jianyao seemed to have adapted a lot, and there was no fear at all.
He thought for a while, left his position, walked around the corner of the table in his memory, and came to the relatively empty sofa area.
Then, he sat down slowly, sitting on the cold ground, with his legs crossed.
In the solidified darkness, Shang Jianyao maintained this posture, raised his right hand, and pinched the temples on both sides.
Soon, his head dropped, and he just sat and fell asleep.
It was definitely impossible to maintain balance. His body leaned to the side little by little, leaning on the sofa, and his head rested on the armrest.
…
In the illusory sea of shimmering light, Shang Jianyao once again saw the island with dark brown soil and rugged rocks.
- As long as he can't hold on and wakes up because of fear, the next time he enters, it must not be on the island, but in the "Sea of Origin" next to him.
Shang Jianyao was already accustomed to the current environment, he quickly lowered his head and looked at the blurry self reflected by the illusory water waves.
He spoke in a low voice:
"The island is dark, and so is Room 14;
"There is no sound on the island from anything other than me, and there is no sound from outside of me in Room 14;
"so?"
Shang Jianyao paused and answered his own question:
"So, the island is room 14."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes still grasped the edge of the island and turned over.
Without any accident, his eyes became pitch black again, and all sounds other than himself were lost in his ears.
Shang Jianyao sat down without hesitation, sat on the cold ground, and crossed his legs.
It's the exact same position he was in before falling asleep.
The darkness and silence of the surroundings seemed familiar to him, and he seemed to be able to point out a single sofa on the right, a coffee table diagonally in front, a reclining chair, a bench and a low stool.
Next door, Jiang Baimian was waiting for him to shout if there was anyone.
Shang Jianyao's mood instantly calmed down. Like the previous two nights, he thought about the various things he had encountered recently, and guessed what type of communion other religious organizations had.
This caused him to raise his right hand from time to time and wipe the corner of his mouth. Only when he thought that the communion of the monks was most likely to be oil and batteries, did he shake his head and express his deep regret.
Time flies, Shang Jianyao wanted to stand up several times, sing loudly or ask if anyone was there, but he forcibly controlled himself.
Anyway, Jiang Baimian is next door next door.
When he controlled himself again and again, and no other accident happened, he began to feel that such darkness and such silence were nothing special, and could not destroy himself at all.
He even sang softly, and was content.
I don't know how long it took, Shang Jianyao was really sleepy, so he closed his eyes indifferently and recharged his energy.
Then, he really fell asleep.
Suddenly, a pure light shone in here, illuminating his eyes red.
Shang Jianyao opened his eyes, saw the surrounding darkness being quickly dispelled, and heard a slight clatter from the illusory sea.
Large swaths of dark brown soil and rugged rocks on the island are revealed.
The light immediately pierced into his eyes, causing him to subconsciously raise his right hand and block it in front of him.
After closing and opening his eyes, Shang Jianyao saw the radiant fluorescent lamps and the white and gray ceiling.
Only then did he realize that he was leaning against the armrest of the single sofa, sleeping in a mess.
Because room 14 has lights and no longer meets the preset conditions, his "reasoning clown" is invalid.
Shang Jian Yao immediately turned his wrist and looked at his watch.
The pointer above shows that it is now 6:30.
This is the time when streetlights are powered back up.
Shang Jianyao closed his eyes again, not knowing what he was sensing.
Then, holding on to the handrail, he looked sideways at the door.
In just a few seconds, light footsteps approached, and Jiang Baimian's clothes appeared at the door wrinkled.
While rubbing her eyes, she looked at Shang Jianyao on the ground, and asked curiously and hilariously:
"What is this doing?"
"Maintain the unity of internal and external posture." Shang Jianyao said the truth that most people do not understand.
Jiang Baimian was stunned for a moment, and then he woke up:
"Are you trying to face the fear in the 'Sea of Origins' again
"Did you win?"
"It's a win. Although it didn't admit defeat, it didn't appear again." Shang Jianyao thought about it.
Jiang Baimian suddenly became excited:
"Then how has your ability changed?"
After speaking, she hurriedly added:
"If it's not convenient to answer, you don't need to answer."
Shang Jianyao said frankly:
"This time it seems like there's only a scope change.
"It's a little bit better than before, but not too much.
"When you are at the 12- or 13-meter position, I can find your presence, and I feel that I can make your hands lack a movement."
"Lack of movement in both hands... What was the range of this ability before?" Jiang Baimian asked.
"Ten meters." Shang Jianyao didn't hide it.
"That's an improvement of almost 30%... This is the first fear. After you have overcome a lot, and then find yourself, your ability may be doubled, even three or four times." Jiang Baimian thoughtfully He smiled, "It turns out that your sensing range is the range of abilities."
"According to the ability with the largest scope." Shang Jianyao pointed out that Jiang Baimian's statement was not rigorous.
Jiang Baimian asked curiously:
"The range of other abilities is less than ten meters?"
"The reasoning clown was originally three meters, and the hypocritical person was originally five meters." Shang Jianyao replied seriously.
Jiang Baimian suddenly felt a little embarrassed:
"Stop, stop, this is your secret, you can't say it in such detail."
Shang Jianyao glanced at her, and said in a low voice:
"The four of us can be regarded as companions who have experienced life and death several times together. In most cases, I think we can all be trusted, can protect each other's flanks and backs, and can charge together..."
"Stop! You repeat the machine!" Jiang Baimian couldn't help laughing and scolding.
This was the rhetoric she used to resolve Shang Jianyao's inner fear last night.
Without giving this guy a chance to jump in thinking, Jiang Baimian hurriedly asked:
"Since you've already won, why don't you get up? Is it comfortable to sit cross-legged on the ground?"
Shang Jianyao replied sincerely:
"Because my legs are numb."
"..." Jiang Baimian laughed, "Do you need my help?"
"No." Shang Jianyao responded without caring at all.
Jiang Baimian was about to say not to be brave, when he saw Shang Jianyao put his arms up, his body turned over, and the whole person stood upside down.
upside down...
Then, Shang Jianyao walked towards the door with his hands as his feet.
"..." Jiang Baimian was speechless.
…
Another day passed, at nine o'clock in the morning, in the surface area of "Pangu Creatures", in the parking lot.
"It's still an old partner." Jiang Baimian pointed to the gray-green jeep with ample space, "It has been repaired."
She swept over the excited Shang Jianyao, the quiet Bai Chen, and the depressed Long Yuehong in turn, and asked:
"Have you read the mission plan
"Any questions about our route?"
"No!" Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen responded loudly.
The latter's prudence when he first joined the "Old Tunes Group" has been reduced by more than half.
"No." Long Yuehong was a little out of breath today.
Jiang Baimian ignored him, opened the trunk, pointed to the items inside and said:
"It's still those weapons from before, 'Icemoss' pistol, 'Joint 202', 'Orange' rifle, 'Berzer' assault rifle and 'Tyrant' grenade gun, um, in order to make up for the lack of heavy firepower, this time I have an application Anti-armor shoulder-mounted individual bazooka, its nickname is 'Reaper'.
"The corresponding ammunition is sufficient, and in addition, some common specifications of ammunition are also prepared.
"The food is more than what we prepared before. After we go to Shuiwei Town, we have to rush to Weed City as soon as possible. It is best not to delay on the way. Although there are always intelligence officers there, there is no big problem without us, but we still have to Do your best to save people like putting out a fire.
"Also, it's almost winter, and it's hard to find enough food in the wild..."
After explaining various matters, Jiang Baimian asked:
"What else do you want to ask?"
When Bai Chen and Long Yuehong shook their heads, Shang Jianyao took a step forward and asked a question:
"When to set off?"
"... Now." Jiang Baimian grinded his teeth.
Just like before, they entered the jeep each, driven by Jiang Baimian, went through layers of inspection, exited the heavy metal gate, and entered the dirt.
Unlike last time, they all put on sunglasses in advance, so they were not stabbed by the morning sun.
While the team members admired the surrounding scenery, Jiang Baimian quietly drove the car.
After leaving the company's actual control, she suddenly turned the steering wheel and changed her course.
"Team leader, did you go wrong?" Long Yuehong glanced at the sun and determined the direction down.
"No." Jiang Baimian responded with a smile.
Long Yuehong wondered:
"However, this is different from the mission plan."
Jiang Baimian raised the corners of his mouth and smiled proudly:
"That is to deceive the Deputy Minister and them."
"Why?" Long Yuehong became more and more puzzled.
Jiang Baimian glanced at Shang Jian Yao through the rearview mirror:
"The 'Rite of Life' religious group must have other members on the dust, after all, it came from outside. I'm worried that the believers lurking inside the company will secretly get our mission plan and find a way to notify the companions on the surface, Let them lay an ambush to stop us.
"So, from the beginning, I didn't plan to implement the route in the mission plan. Haha, I asked you to be more realistic."
Bai Chen, who was in the passenger seat, listened thoughtfully:
"Team leader, in fact, you are still worried that there are people from the 'Rite of Life' order at the top. This mission is a trap?"
Jiang Baimian smiled:
"Be prepared, more chances win less chances."
Long Yuehong unconsciously began to look at the group leader's back with admiration, while Shang Jianyao hummed a song, as if he didn't care at all.
Under the bright sun, the jeep turned another corner and continued to run in the wilderness.
…
"Pangu creatures", in an unmanned room.
Yue Qifan, who has the ability to "erasure fragmented memory", wore a peaked cap and tiptoed to open the door and walked in.
There is no light here, but it is not dark, because there are small LCD screens on the surrounding walls, which are connected together to display the situation of different areas on different floors.
During the change of light, Yue Qifan lowered his head and shouted at the machine occupying at least one third of the space here:
"Holy Master."
The emotionless electronic synthesis sounded through the loudspeaker:
"You tell the unexposed members not to do anything for these three months."
"Yes, holy teacher." Yue Qifan replied without hesitation.
Then he raised his head.
Suddenly, he saw the countless LCD screens on the surrounding walls jump, showing his own figure.
There is him who is wearing a peaked cap and is in contact with Xiong Ming; there is him who takes the elevator to the 495th floor; there is him who confronts Shang Jianyao; there is him who is humming a song and pretending to be normal; Somewhere, he who made the call...
Yue Qifan's pupils suddenly dilated, and his whole body was tense as if about to explode, but he forgot to refute a few words.
A few seconds later, many more business ideas appeared on those LCD screens:
Some of them are experimenting with their abilities, some are grimacing at the camera, some are pointing upwards with flashlights, some are chatting with Xiong Ming in the corner, some are using indecent gestures, and some are walking upside down in the corridor...
"Holy teacher..." Yue Qifan whispered with a tingling scalp.
That emotionless, cold voice sounded again, echoing throughout the room:
"As I said, I'm always watching you."
(End of the second part)
Summary of the second part
In fact, there is not much to summarize in the second part, because it is too short...
In general, I use the method of suspense and tension that I am good at, and it is done with the interaction of characters without the psychological description of business, and the overall effect is OK.
The structure of the story is also very simple, that is, the structure of a standard criminal investigation and reasoning text, but it is relatively less involved.
As for the important turning point, one is to bring out the most mysterious saint teacher, and the other is to turn out some inconsistencies and present them to everyone, and there is some very important information in it, haha, I won't say more, To avoid spoilers, the answer may not be revealed until the sixth part.
The title of the volume "Unfinished" comes from Schubert's Eighth Symphony "Unfinished", which takes a literal meaning and indicates a temporary interruption of many things, while the "Prelude" of the first volume comes from Liszt's symphonic poem, What is used is the connotation of music, and the specific symbolic meaning was mentioned in the summary of the first part. In the third part, it is the well-known "Fate", which is relatively long, at least more than 150 chapters.
After that, each of the titles used classical music as the title, hey, that’s why I said that the title of “To the New World” is the most suitable, because the most accurate translation of Dvorak’s “From the New World” should be “From the New World” "The World", with a slight change of one word, and the title of each volume in the whole book runs through it.
Well, the second part is over, and the story officially kicks off. Because the third part will be longer, please take an extra half day to fake the outline, and take a total of two days off, which is to resume the update at 7:00 pm on Monday.
This is still less than the leave of absence in the later stage of Mystery, because at the beginning, I was not so tired and needed to rest and laugh.
Bow and thank you all.
The third destiny
