Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao had no way of knowing what Mr. Zhang's expression was under the gray-white deep-bottomed aluminum pot.
However, this action was not completed. Zhang Lao's palm just touched the clothes, stopped for two seconds, and then slid down again.
His voice seemed to be a little hoarse, and he spoke a little faster as usual:
"The thing about brain control is simply that the mastermind who once destroyed the old world hoped that mankind would remain in this state and would never be able to rebuild a true civilization, so he used the brainwave device to secretly control a large number of people, including those of the major forces. The upper class, let them lose their enterprising spirit, forget their past ideals, stop working hard for the recovery of all mankind, and become fallen people.
"The brain wave instrument was the culprit that brought the 'innocence' in the first place. To this day, they still play a role in many places, contributing to the removal of the human beings who have discovered secrets behind the scenes."
"However, many of the 'innocuous' patients we have encountered are ordinary human beings, and there is no possibility of discovering the secrets of brain control." Even in the face of the former "Salvation Army" veterans, honest Shang Jianyao should still Rebut to rebut.
Zhang Lao and others have obviously considered this question, and they have already figured out the reason, and answered without stammering at all:
"You guys, you're too young to confuse the water!
"If you just remove people who know the secrets of brain control, it's easy to find out that something is wrong, and you have to turn some ordinary people into 'unintentional people' in order to confuse the water and make things less abrupt.
"In the old world, there was an old saying that went like this:
"The best way to hide a needle is to throw it into the ocean."
"It's hard to find out," said the honest Shang Jianyao.
Zhang Lao took a breath and said in a low voice:
"In short, before you are under brain control, hurry up and find two aluminum pots to wear. If there is no aluminum pot, you can also use an iron pot, a copper pot, and a stainless steel pot. Only in this way can you maintain the independence of thinking. Ideal purity, not corrupted by a little bit of enjoyment.
"This is a lesson from the past! How many 'Salvation Army' soldiers were born and died in order to save all mankind, and they were not afraid of anything, but after the situation got better, the quality changed.
"They are all under brain control!"
The more Zhang Lao said, the more distressed he became.
"Yes, yes!" Shang Jianyao seemed to have found a bosom friend, "It must be the case, otherwise they would not betray their former ideals and forget their vows so easily."
It was tempered in blood and fire without fading.
Jiang Baimian tried several times to interrupt the conversation between the two, but they couldn't join the conversation between the old and the young.
Zhang Lao nodded so much that the aluminum pot on his head shook:
"It seems that although you have only been here for a few days, you have also seen some ugly phenomena.
"Well, it's Hong Guangming who gave you the pass, right?"
"Yes." Shang Jianyao didn't hide it.
Zhang Lao waved his hand, and his emotions suddenly became excited:
"I see that old boy Hong Guangming and scold him once, point at his nose and scold him!
"When he was still under my command, he was a simple and enthusiastic boy, and when he saw that the children who were homeless in the wilderness could not get enough to eat, he secretly divided half of his food.
"Once, we were surrounded by a group of people who only knew how to burn, kill and loot at that time. In order to cover the evacuation of the large army, he took the initiative to stand up and ask for a break, and almost died there.
"That's it, is he afraid? No! He is still charging forward again and again. You can also see that he lost an arm and a leg one after another. Fortunately, we found and seized a lot of mechanical prosthetics at that time, and he was good at it. People who have undergone surgery in this area can only live to this day if they join the team.
"Now, if you don't say that you can eat enough, at least under normal circumstances, no one will starve to death, and if you don't say that you can dress well, at least no one will be frozen to death. How did he become like this
"After I found out, I thought about it for a whole year and didn't understand it. Later, I learned the secret of brain control and put on this aluminum pot, and then I understood it at once.
"Hey… "
"Hey." Shang Jianyao sighed.
It was rare to meet a bosom friend, and Mr. Zhang finally became less vigilant. He thought about it and said:
"Don't you want to ask us if we encountered any suspicious people when we were walking around during martial law
"Go to the sanatorium with me and ask one by one."
Although he was still worried that Shang Jianyao and the others were spies trying to infiltrate the anti-secret control organization, he thought that he was only taking them to ask about martial law-related matters, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with them.
Jiang Baimian was overjoyed and was about to agree when Shang Jianyao said firmly:
"no!"
"Why?" The gray-white aluminum pot covered Old Zhang's puzzled and surprised expression.
Shang Jianyao replied sternly:
"It's martial law and we can't leave the hotel without permission.
"You and your old comrade-in-arms have the right to go out for a walk, we don't have it, and we can't ignore the rules just because you're standing in the way.
"In that case, what's the difference between a fallen person who uses power for personal gain?"
At this moment, two words appeared in Jiang Baimian's mind:
Upright, with clean sleeves.
The latter word doesn't really fit the scene, but it fits the former.
Zhang Lao was stunned for a few seconds and said:
"Good job! If everyone in the new generation of The Salvation Army is like you, that's great."
It may not be good for everyone to be mentally ill... Jiang Baimian only felt that Zhang Lao's words were full of grooves.
After a pause, Zhang Lao took the initiative to say:
"Then I'll go back to the nursing home to help you ask, and then record the answer and take it to the hotel."
"Thank you." Jiang Baimian hurriedly said.
She thought for a while and added:
"By the way, ask your old comrades what notable things they have encountered in the last three days. It's not normal. Well, it doesn't matter if it's not worth noting. As long as it doesn't happen very often, record it."
"It's very meticulous." Zhang Lao is well-informed and praised.
He then said:
"I'll go back now and try to send the content I asked before 10 pm."
Shang Jianyao waved his hand enthusiastically:
"Good wind!"
After watching Mr. Zhang disappear at another exit of the hotel parking lot, Jiang Baimian took Shang Jianyao back to the small building along the normal route.
The hotel manager, Shen Kang, stood by the door, pacing in place, and when he saw the two entering, he quickly asked:
"Elder Zhang is gone?"
"Let's go." Shang Jianyao answered quite positively.
Shen Kang breathed a sigh of relief and turned to say:
"Lao Zhang is confused, has war trauma syndrome, and can no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy.
"In their generation, many of them have bad habits, some still drink heavily, and have conservative views, just like living decades ago, don't believe anything they say.
"Think about it, how normal is it to believe in brain control and wear an aluminum pan on your head every day?"
He was referring to Old Zhang's mental problems inside and out.
"Indeed." Shang Jianyao nodded in agreement.
Jiang Baimian glanced at him in surprise, but did not speak.
"You guys are still sober." Shen Kang was very pleased.
Shang Jianyao immediately pointed to himself:
"I also have mental problems, why do you believe it?"
"..." Shen Kang was circled in at once.
…
In the evening, it was announced on the radio that the evacuation would begin tomorrow.
"If that nuclear warhead is taken away and sent to a certain force, I don't know what will happen..." Long Yuehong said with a bit of worry while looking forward to being able to leave Wubei early tomorrow.
The honest Genava replied:
"There should be no significant difference between staying in the hands of the Salvation Army."
They all lack the ability to manufacture on a large scale, and are only used for deterrence.
Shang Jianyao was about to join the discussion when he suddenly heard someone shouting outside the window:
"That boy and girl in the afternoon, I have collected what you want!"
Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao looked at each other and opened the window. Sure enough, they found that Mr. Zhang was wearing a white washed "Salvation Army" black uniform and a gray-white deep-bottomed aluminum pot. Take a stack of papers and keep shouting loudly.
Within three or two strokes, the two of them "rapidly descended" to the side of Mr. Zhang.
"I have asked them one by one, and they are all recorded on the paper. Don't worry, there are no omissions, including my own."
Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian quickly and sincerely thanked them.
"Come and see what's wrong." Zhang Lao handed out the paper.
Jiang Baimian took the material, took off the flashlight hanging from the belt around his waist, and browsed it on the spot.
The information recorded on the paper is in the order of people, and each person contains two parts, one is whether they have encountered suspicious people during the martial law period, and the other is what normal and rare things they have encountered in the past three or four days.
Shang Jianyao came to Jiang Baimian's side and read one by one with her.
"There's no valid information..." Shang Jianyao sighed in disappointment when he was about to finish the page.
Jiang Baimian didn't say much, and turned his attention to the last page.
This page only records the feedback of one person, that is Zhang Lao himself:
"Zhang: 1. I only met the soldiers in charge of martial law along the way; 2. The day before yesterday afternoon, the antihypertensive medicine of a hotel guest was stolen, and he failed to take the medicine in time. The high blood pressure broke out rapidly. The situation was very serious and he was sent to the hospital for rescue. two days."
He suffered an attack of high blood pressure and was sent to the hospital for two days... Jiang Baimian's heart moved, and he slowly raised his head.
