Long Yuehong's words reverberated in the library room, as if one by one, they exploded in the hearts of Jiang Baimian and Bai Chen.
The first owner of the "Underground Ark", Montis, who is suspected of DiMarco's deity, actually went to Tieshan City!
To Jiang Baimian's surprise, he did not go in the chaotic era, but before the destruction of the old world.
Jiang Baimian stood up, walked over to Long Yuehong, and took the autobiography in his hand.
After watching it several times, Jiang Baimian said to Long Yuehong and Bai Chen in surprise:
"Let's find out when Montes came back, where he's been in Tieshan City, and what he's done."
The three of them buried their heads and turned over the autobiographies.
This time, they even filtered the punctuation without realizing it.
After a long time, Jiang Baimian and others finally extracted all the content about Montis in his autobiography.
In the era of writing his autobiography, he was not the head of the family, but the eldest son in the line of succession, so his various activities did not occupy much space, and he was only mentioned occasionally when recording other things.
Regarding Montis' participation in the bidding for the renovation of the old city in neighboring Tieshan City, the family autobiography did not indicate whether it was successful or not, but Jiang Baimian judged that Montis only participated in other family affairs more than a year later. It should be that the bidding was successful, and he stayed in Tieshan City for a long time.
"Montis was then assigned to build the city's landmarks until the destruction of the old world... This means that he left Iron Mountain a few years before the destruction of the old world... 'Iron Mountain Second Food Company' was established in the old world. Is there something weird?" Jiang Baimian made a reasonable guess.
The city corresponding to the ruins where the redstone set is located is a place with a fairly developed economy in the old world. It is mentioned in the autobiography that the labor cost is very high and the efficiency is low. The construction of various large-scale projects is no longer fast, so the landmark buildings are repaired several times. year is normal.
"And the 'underground ark' was built many years before he went to Tieshan City, obviously it has nothing to do with the weirdness of the Second Food Company." Bai Chen felt that things could not really be connected.
After discussing for a while, Jiang Baimian turned his wrist and looked at the electronic watch, covered his mouth and yawned:
"It's a little late, let's go back to sleep and continue tomorrow morning."
She felt that there were too many books here, and it was impossible to finish all the work in one battle. Since there has been some progress, it is better to rest and recuperate, and fight again tomorrow morning.
Bai Chen and Long Yuehong glanced at the words written by Montis or someone else in the "Sacred Canon" and couldn't think of new ideas for a while, so they agreed with Jiang Baimian's proposal.
Jiang Baimian took a few steps to the side, bent his back, grabbed his left hand, and directly raised Shang Jianyao, letting him lean on him and accept support.
This guy has absolutely no intention of waking up.
Long Yuehong, who wanted to volunteer to help, suddenly had an idea and closed her open mouth again.
The group of four returned to the second basement in this way and came to the two rooms arranged by Ulrich.
This is a room between two people, Jiang Baimian specially requested, to ensure that they can take care of each other.
"Go back to your room and rest. Try not to wake up at night. If you really need to, wake up the other party and never act alone." Before parting, Jiang Baimian habitually warned.
The bathroom for the double room is outside.
"Okay." Bai Chen agreed.
"Yes, team leader." When Long Yuehong replied, her heart was beating wildly.
Although this grouping is now a habit of the "old tune group", everyone has adapted to it, and they are too familiar with each other, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about, but Long Yuehong still feels that this time is different from the past.
The mood is different.
And since he recovered from his injury, he has never slept in the same room with Xiaobai again.
- On the way back to "Pangu Creatures" from the original city, and on the way from "Pangu Creatures" to Redstone Collection, the "Old Tune Team" only occasionally finds settlements to replenish supplies. They have never stayed in hotels, nor rented rooms, or even tents. They have never taken a ride, they are all in groups of two, taking turns sleeping in the jeep.
Under the watchful eyes of "all eyes", there is no doubt that there is no feeling of sleeping in the same room.
Long Yuehong originally thought that after everyone grew up, the team leader would readjust the grouping, and no longer match men and women, so that everyone would not feel comfortable. After all, the old situation no longer exists, he can barely bear Seeing Shang Jianyao's responsibilities, who knew that Jiang Baimian seemed to have forgotten about this matter and never mentioned it again.
Long Yuehong didn't take the initiative to help Jiang Baimian to help Shang Jianyao just now, but she was suddenly afraid of the other party, so she remembered to adjust the group.
Entering the room, Long Yuehong looked sideways at Bai Chen:
"Which bed do you sleep in?"
"It's all the same." Bai Chen took off the tactical backpack behind him and threw it on the bed on the right.
"Oh." Long Yuehong walked to the left side of the bed and sat down.
At this time, he saw Bai Chen take off his coat.
Although this was a common sight before, and Bai Chen also wore a long-sleeved camouflage T-shirt inside, it was impossible to reveal anything, but Long Yuehong still felt uncomfortable, cleared her throat inaudibly, and turned her eyes to the side.
"Aren't you going to wash up?" Bai Chen took out the toiletries.
"Oh." Long Yuehong stood up abruptly, rummaging around in a hurry.
Items such as can openers and iron combs popped up from time to time and were put back again.
After finishing these things, they each lay down on the bed. Long Yuehong opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling shrouded in darkness, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
He didn't know when he fell asleep, it was midnight when he woke up.
It may be because she has been a little nervous all the time, and Long Yuehong felt the urge to urinate more obviously.
He heard Bai Chen's long breathing, apparently sleeping soundly, and didn't want to wake her up, so he tossed and turned, trying to hold back.
He lay on his side for a while, on his back for a while, and then lay on his side for a while in the other direction, constantly adjusting his posture, looking for the least uncomfortable state.
Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound coming from Bai Chen's side.
"Are you awake? I want to go to the bathroom." Bai Chen said.
"Okay." Long Yue turned over and sat up.
The two of them went together, put on their weapons, walked out of the room, and came to the next door.
"You go first." Long Yuehong pointed to the bathroom door in a gentlemanly manner.
Bai Chen didn't refuse, and walked in quickly.
As her figure disappeared in front of her eyes, Long Yuehong suddenly felt that the wind in the corridor was gloomy and cold, and the wall lamps with only a few turned on were dim and dim.
He suddenly remembered the situation when he fought against DiMarco - in the gloomy and terrifying atmosphere, he was like being invaded by a ghost, and it was difficult to control his body.
DiMarco doesn't have a little breath left, exists in a ghost-like state, floating in the "underground ark", right? The more Long Yuehong thought about it, the more frightened it became. There was always a feeling that someone was watching her secretly.
He turned his eyes, slowly turned his body, and looked back cautiously.
The next second, he saw a pair of eyes.
Eyes peeking out from behind the monkey mask.
Long Yuehong soothed her beating heart and blurted out:
"Why don't you have a voice?"
"It will make trouble for others." Shang Jianyao explained in a suppressed voice.
"..." Long Yuehong couldn't care less, "Why did you wake up?"
"I slept too long, I need to go to the toilet." Shang Jianyao was righteous.
"Why are you the only one, team leader?" Long Yuehong asked with a frown.
"At such a distance, she can just rely on induction, and she doesn't need to get up at all." Shang Jianyao replied indifferently.
He turned to ask:
"Did you find anything in the library before?"
"Yes." As soon as Long Yuehong answered, Bai Chen walked out of the bathroom and said, "It's your turn."
"Wait a minute, let's talk about what you found first." Shang Jianyao took off the monkey mask and looked curious.
The panic-stricken Long Yuehong took a breath, gritted her teeth, and decided to finish the speech quickly.
"I'll come." Bai Chen walked between him and Shang Jianyao.
"Okay." Long Yuehong was inexplicably happy.
After he finished urinating and washed his hands, Bai Chen had already told Shang Jianyao the general situation.
Shang Jian Yao rubbed his chin and said to himself:
"Montis thought he was possessed by the devil? Didn't he know it was an awakening?"
"He should not have been exposed to related concepts at that time." Long Yuehong expressed his views.
Shang Jianyao didn't answer, and hurried into the bathroom.
…
The next morning, the "Old Tunes Group" who had had breakfast came to the library in the "Underground Ark" again.
Shang Jianyao didn't go to read Montis' "Holy Book" and the autobiography of the DiMarco family, looked at Ulrich, and asked sincerely:
"Are there any occult books here?"
"There are some," Ulrich replied. "Although Mr. Montes is a devout believer and doesn't like mysticism at all, some of his fathers and grandparents liked it and brought back up books to the ark."
"Take me to see." Shang Jianyao said bluntly.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Jiang Baimian said thoughtfully:
"Do you suspect that after Montes thought he was possessed by the devil, he tried to find the corresponding source and solution from the occult?"
Slap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded.
In the morning, he was refreshed and in good condition, and he could not see that he was still suffering from mental damage.
Soon, he, Ulrich and Long Yuehong moved back with three stacks of mysticism books.
When Ulrich left, the "Old Tune Team" divided the labor and cooperated with each other, and each was responsible for checking a part.
Turning over and over, Long Yuehong found something:
Certain words and sentences in the book were drawn at the bottom with a blue-black pen.
He immediately reported the situation, and Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao, and Bai Chen successively stated that a similar situation existed in the books in their hands.
After comparison, they found that the underlined words and sentences were related to spirit, soul, and spirituality.
This involves different occult theories, including etherism, animism, etc.
As the inspection deepened, Bai Chen found new clues at the end of a certain book.
The blue-black pen wrote a word in the blank space with very heavy strokes:
"cost?"
