Jiang Baimian looked at Long Yuehong, looked into his eyes, and did not answer immediately.

This made Long Yuehong a little uneasy, wondering if she was acting too timid.

After a few seconds, Jiang Baimian laughed:

"Actually, even if there is no outbreak of 'unintentional disease', I will consider getting one or two other residences in other districts or in the more chaotic streets of Qinglan District. Be prepared."

"Yeah." Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Baimian turned to Bai Chen and said:

"It is possible to rediscover the previously abandoned backup options."

"Okay." Bai Chen didn't think he could be exempted from the "innocence disease" infection.

—When I was in the company, there was no way for everyone to do anything, and they really had "no heart disease". No matter how they hide, they are still in the underground building, which is meaningless.

In the entire "old tune group", it is possible that only the intelligent man Genava is not worried about suffering from "innocent disease".

Shang Jianyao therefore raised a question:

"Do Zen Masters Get 'Innocent Disease'?"

By Zen masters he meant mechanical monks.

Jiang Baimian could not answer.

"There is no relevant record, maybe only they know it internally." Genova spoke with data.

Long Yuehong muttered:

"Sometimes, it's not much different from having 'innocence'."

He will always remember the way Jingfa went mad when he heard the female voice.

Taking advantage of the money on hand, the "Old Tunes Group" rented a room each in a chaotic street in the Green Olive District and in the Red Giant Wolf District.

When renting a house, they didn't show up themselves, but found someone on the road, stuffed him with a little money, and let him handle it.

After finishing this matter, they drove the gray off-road vehicle to the south exit of the original city.

- When Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian observed the surrounding environment of the Zhao family manor yesterday, they drove the original jeep, and naturally they have to change it today, so as not to be suspected.

On the way, Shang Jianyao, who was sitting on the right in the back row, raised his hand and pinched his temple, allowing his consciousness to enter the "Sea of Origins".

Not finding the fourth island of fear for so long made him more and more busy with his free time.

In the shimmering ocean, Shang Jianyao was still swimming toward the horizon that seemed to never be reached.

He tried the method of blindfolding his eyes, plugging his ears, and going with the situation. He also practiced the idea of dividing into nines, each exploring one direction, but he still found no trace of the island.

Seeing that the spirit is already a little tired, the nine businessmen merged into one, sat cross-legged on the illusory "water wave", and entered the thinking mode.

After a while, he said to himself:

"Am I no longer afraid

"No, I'm still afraid of losing my companion..."

As his thoughts turned around, his voice echoed on the "Sea of Origins".

Suddenly, a small island rose up not far away, and a golden light appeared in the center of the island.

Shang Jianyao was excited, and let himself grow eight extra hands and sixteen legs, and swam to the island like a paddle.

Soon, he reached his destination and jumped up.

At the same time, he put away the extra hands and feet he had manifested.

With a glance, he saw that in the center of this small island stood a golden elevator that seemed to lead to the ground.

The elevator door was tightly closed, and a figure sat cross-legged outside.

This figure is wearing a gray camouflage uniform, with a straight back, eyebrows like swords, bright brown eyes, and handsome facial features, just like Shang Jian Yao himself!

Shang Jianyao looked at him and politely said:

"Good noon, you should be the last level of the 'Sea of Origins', right?"

The corner of Shang Jianyao's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with a lighter smile:

"You are still afraid, you are still afraid of losing your companion.

"I'll teach you a way to effectively solve this problem."

"What is it?" Shang Jianyao asked curiously.

That Shang Jianyao replied with a smile:

"Kill them all, let them live in your memory, and let your split personality become them, so you'll never lose them again, and never feel that intense pain again."

Just as Shang Jianyao was about to open his mouth, he suddenly felt that the island shook, and waves appeared in the "Sea of Origin".

The entire world of consciousness quickly collapsed, and Shang Jianyao opened his eyes and found that it was Genava shaking himself.

"Arrived at the destination." Jiang Baimian, who was opening the door, said.

Shang Jianyao woke up instantly and followed the door to get out of the car.

After standing up, he said casually:

"I found the fourth island."

"Ah?" Jiang Baimian almost didn't hear clearly, "The fourth island? What's on it?"

When Long Yuehong and Bai Chen cast curious glances, Shang Jianyao said simply:

"There's another me on it, and an elevator."

"The other you." Jiang Baimian nodded first, then woke up, "Isn't this just finding yourself? As long as you accommodate him, you can enter the 'Soul Corridor'!"

Shang Jianyao said "um":

"It can't be accommodated for the time being. I think he has a problem, and he also thinks I have a problem."

"What's the problem?" Long Yuehong blurted out.

Shang Jianyao glanced at him:

"He merged with a certain fear."

"What fear?" Jiang Baimian asked keenly.

Shang Jianyao laughed:

"The fear of losing a companion. He said that as long as there is no companion, there is no fear of losing."

While speaking, Shang Jianyao looked at Long Yuehong, and his tone became a little gloomy:

"He said kill you all, make specimens, and the problem will be solved."

Fuck... Long Yuehong shuddered:

"Is this too perverted?"

Shang Jianyao's smile suddenly became sunny:

"He said it was learned from you. You wanted to kill Qiao Chu and make it a specimen collection."

"Uh..." Long Yuehong was at a loss for words, and then defended after feeling Genova's gaze, "that was influenced by your 'reasoning clown'."

"Okay." Jiang Baimian pressed his palm, "This matter is a long-term plan, don't worry."

She still values her own life and the lives of her team members, and did not commit suicide to fulfill the idea of Shang Jianyao.

The cause of the destruction of the old world and the pathogenesis of "no-heart disease" have not yet been figured out, how could she be willing to die

After finishing this topic, she couldn't help but sighed at Shang Jianyao:

"You found yourself after only three islands, I don't know how many Awakeneds you can envy.

"Is this the benefit of having mental problems, without fear?"

Shang Jianyao thought about it and said:

"Can they also get a doctor's certificate?"

Is this the point? Jiang Baimian swallowed the words he was about to blurt out, and then pointed to the woods next to him and said:

"This is today's monitoring point."

"But I can't see Zhao's Manor here..." Long Yuehong was a little puzzled.

He just heard from the team leader that the road outside the woods is the main road leading to the main entrance of Zhao Family Manor.

Jiang Baimian explained with a smile:

"It's not that we haven't dealt with the 'priest', we should know that he likes to hide in the dark and monitor everything. If we go to the monitoring points with the best view outside the Zhao family manor, he will be easily discovered by him, so we should observe passing by here. As soon as he saw the people who had problems in Zhao Shouren's memory, he immediately took action, subdued him, and confirmed the situation..."

While talking, Jiang Baimian suddenly fell silent.

Long Yuehong didn't know what happened, and was a little confused.

At this time, Shang Jianyao smiled and said:

"The team of relic hunters who did surveillance before is very powerful."

That's right, with the IQ, ability, and style of the "priest", he would definitely not ignore the convenient monitoring locations around the Zhao family manor. Those people could find the problem and make sure there were strangers... Long Yuehong suddenly realized.

Jiang Baimian nodded solemnly:

"Remember how the true 'priest' behaved in the assassination of Xu Liyan?"

Bai Chen replied in a deep voice:

"He let out the bait of a fake 'priest', which attracted everyone's attention and made everyone fall into his trap."

"Will it be the same this time? Zhao Family Manor is actually a bait, a trap?" Jiang Baimian asked himself and answered, "This will explain some of the anomalies. For example, they directly deducted everything that was turned over and let Zhao Zhengqi Anomalies were found, for example, they did not deal with the monitoring points around the manor... "

She previously thought that "anti-Intellectual Education" controlling Zhao Family Manor was a short-term act, so she didn't care if the Zhao Family Patriarch noticed something was wrong, but this explanation was very reluctant, because no matter how short-term the behavior was, she would be worried about accidents in the middle.

And now, combined with the style of a real "priest", everything makes perfect sense.

Genova heard this and gave the analysis result:

"So, should you leave here immediately?"

Jiang Baimian glanced at him with a smile:

"No, no, as a deceived person, you should continue to stay here, collect clues, and see what you can get in the end."

"Deceiving them in turn?" Genova perfected his analysis mechanism.

He also listed Jiang Baimian's plan just now, but the weight is not as high as the one he said at the end.

Shang Jianyao helped Jiang Baimian to argue:

"How can it be called deception? This is strategic fraud!"

"What's the difference?" Genova was quite honest.

Jiang Baimian did not give Shang Jianyao a chance to talk nonsense, and instead said:

"If this is indeed a trap, who does the 'Anti-Intellectualism' want to deal with?"

"It's definitely not us." Long Yuehong expressed his thoughts.

When did the "Old Tune Group" leave "Pangu Creatures" and when did they arrive in Primal City, it was full of accidental factors, and it was obvious that the Zhao Family Manor had been going on for a long time.

Bai Chen looked back at the direction of the first city:

"The Zhao family is not qualified enough... 'Anti-Intellectualism' wants to use them to wipe out certain forces in the city?"

"Maybe." Jiang Baimian replied simply, and said to Shang Jianyao and the others, "Okay, hide the car, enter the predetermined position, and monitor the pedestrians on the road."

In fact, Shang Jianyao is the only one who is really responsible for identifying people, because only he has seen a few targets in Zhao Shouren's memory, and the portraits he "made", Long Yuehong and the others couldn't even recognize who was who.

Soon, the five members of the "Old Tunes Group" hid in the woods and behaved without any abnormality.
