Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 47 is mailed to nature (recommendation ticket)

The roar has not yet subsided, and there are similar roars from different places in the Great Swamp, which continue to echo.

Du Heng listened for a while, the smile on his face unconsciously disappeared.

When the night in the black marsh wilderness becomes quiet again, this middle-aged man who claims to be an antiquities Scholar and a historical researcher looks back at Jiang Baiman, Shang Jianyao and others:

” The situation over there is a bit more troublesome than I expected.

“It seems I have to rush overnight. “

While speaking, he has stood up.

“Be careful. “Jiang Baiman did not make a stay, and said politely.

Du Heng laughed, and did not respond directly. Before bidding farewell, he said casually:

“little girl, your name is always Reminds me of the past. At that time, there were many cotton fields near my hometown. Whenever this season, or later, I could see countless little clouds falling to the ground. The scene was beautiful. “

Jiang Baiman stood up, faintly smiled and said:

“My father is a biologist who studies cotton improvement, and the month I was born happened to be the harvest season. So, he gave me such a name. “

Speaking of this, she smiled and protested:

“Although you are indeed older than us, you shouldn’t use the name’little girl’. “

Du Heng haha ​​smiled:

“My age is much older than my appearance, and I am bigger than you think.” “

He didn’t delay any more, smiled and waved his hand:

“May I see you again. “

“May I see you again.” “Jiang Baiman, Shang Jianyao and others responded politely.

Du Heng waved his hand again, turned his body, around the dirt bag, step by step in the dark wilderness where the sun has set and the moon has not risen. North.

“Ms. Galoran, how about you? Are you going to the north of Yuelu Station too? Jiang Baiman sat down again and looked at the blond and blue-eyed Taoist opposite.

Galoran smiled replied:

“Don’t call me Madam.” There is no gender distinction on the way to find Dao’.

“If you want to show respect, I don’t mind, you can call me the Daoist Chief.

“Of course, you want to call me Ronaldinho, Xiaolan, and Xiaojia. It doesn’t matter, this is nothing more than seeking different scenery on the road, there is no distinction between high and low. “

“It’s pretty, pretty, grounded.” “Jiang Baiman thought for a long time, and finally came up with an appropriate adjective. “It can be seen that you have learned the earth language quite well.” “

“This is not my voluntary. “Galoran’s answer was completely beyond the expectations of Bai Chen and others.

She immediately gave an explanation with a smile:

“The classics about Dao’ all use earth If the text is translated into Honghe language, it will lose its charm and cannot be described accurately. “

After finishing talking, she threw the gnawed rabbit bones on the ground, put two greasy fingers into her mouth, sucked a few times, and then carelessly wiped the clothes Wipe.

Such a casual behavior, coupled with her beautiful and alluring but rather noble temperament, makes Jiang Baiman, Shang Jianyao and others a little dumbfounded.

Galoran took out one. After taking two sips of the water sac, the people on the other side stared at themselves in a daze, and then chuckled out:
“Sometimes, we don’t even know the truth and the false, even the most basic There is no guarantee of survival, so what do you care about these trivial details? It’s better to do whatever you want, and leave it to nature. “

Speaking of this, she cast her eyes on the jumping campfire, and said with a smile meaninglessly:

“Like the nobles of’First City’Elder’s Council, Obviously several decades ago, they were all wanderers who were struggling to survive in the wilderness. When there was no clean water source, they had to rush to drink the urine with their companions. Now they have to pay attention to etiquette, respect and inferiority, and talk about all kinds of red tapes that are actually meaningless. .

“Hehe, when there are bottom citizens in the city to death from freezing and starvation, they stipulate that the banquet must have a dish and a tableware.”

None of Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen I’ve been to “First City”, but I just heard some rumors, and I really can’t take this topic.

Jiang Baiman is looking thoughtful and nodded:

“It seems that you are from’First City’.”

Galoran, the blond Taoist priest laughed, did not do The affirmative answer is not denied.

Shang Jianyao saw that the scene was a little silent for a while, so he changed the topic:

“Tao Master Galoran, what is a Taoist priest?”

Galoran thought about it seriously. Thinking:

“It’s really difficult to explain…

“Didn’t you meet monks? Taoist priests can be regarded as another kind of monks, belonging to another outer sect religion, and believe in monks of different ages. “

Hearing the words “holding the old”, Jiang Baiman, Long Yuehong and others all felt like a blue vein in the forehead.

Shang Jianyao actively asked:

p>

“I don’t know which old age do you believe in? “

Galoran’s expression became serious:

“Zhuang Sheng. “

“…” All members of the “Old Tune Group” are a little hard to say.

——After getting rid of Jing Fa, Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao have eliminated this name The information informed by the mechanical monks in 诳语 was shared with Jiang Baiman and Bai Chen.

Among these messages, one very important piece of information is:

The Order of Monks believes that this World is just “Tathagata” is a dream of the Buddha in the past, so it is full of all kinds of pain, and “Tathagata in the world” represents the year of the year and the intercalary month. It has a unique name outside the monastic order.

The name is:

“Zhuang Sheng”!

Galoran caught the slightly unusual reactions of several people in full view, but did not ask any questions.

After a few seconds, Jiang Baiman tentatively asked:

“Did you join this sect in’First City’? “

Galoran nodded:

“Yes, eternal years sect. “

A smile gradually appeared on her face:

“At that time, my mother had just passed away, and I was not getting along well with other people in the family…”

Suddenly, Shang Jianyao interrupted the Taoist’s memory:

“When you mentioned that your mother passed away, why not only did you not feel sad, but also laughed? “

Galoran laughed, and said in earthly words:

“Birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural laws of this World, just like Spring, Summer , Autumn, and Winter are the same, there will always be alternating and reincarnation. Although my mother is dead, she still sleeps between Heaven and Earth. She is still a part of nature. Perhaps one day, she will start again in another form, as if winter is over and spring is coming.

“Now that I understand this, why should I cry sadly?

“With this energy, it is better to miss it more. “

Shang Jianyao wanted to refute, but couldn’t find the loopholes in the other party’s theory, so he closed his mouth dullly.

Vaguely, he even felt that Galoran said It makes sense, but it’s too extreme.

Galoran is about to continue the previous topic, and there is another desolate roar to the north of Yuelu Station:

“ao wu! “

This time, roar’s voice has become more loud and rough, and obviously has changed.

Galoran turned his head to listen, faintly smiled and said:

” It seems that I have to go to that place too. “

She stood up slowly, hugged her right hand with her left hand, gave a salute:

“There is no one, New World is right in front of you.” “

Then, she took a photo of Daoist Robe and walked to the north as she followed the crowd.

“Zhiren is another name for old age…” Looking at the Taoist priest Galoran Going away, Shang Jianyao briefly explained.

Jiang Baiman had already stood up and looked at the direction where Galoran and Du Heng were leaving. Suddenly, she laughed:

“Really, Why don’t they prepare a car and have to walk?

“With their abilities, this shouldn’t be too difficult…”

Who dares to trek through the wilderness covered by night?

And such people do not need to deliberately delay, waiting for the first batch of relic hunters to trigger most of the danger.

“It may have happened suddenly.” Bai Chen judged from his own perspective.

“Maybe to maintain the image.” Shang Jianyao said from a direction that normal people would not think.

“…inexplicably think what you said makes sense.” Jiang Baiman almost laughed, “I mean the historical researcher named Du Heng. As for Galoran, she said it herself. All kinds of scenery, it’s better to walk.”

Without waiting for the group members to speak, Jiang Baiman pretended to say:

“The thing that puzzles me the most is another question. “

“What?” Long Yuehong, who was in charge of guarding all around, asked quite nervously.

The smile on Jiang Baiman’s face can no longer hide:

“Shang Jianyao, why didn’t you participate in the’Cantata’ like before?”

She It means that Shang Jianyao followed the roar the first time he heard the anomaly in the depths of the swamp.

Shang Jianyao glanced at the team leader and said seriously:

“You are so naive.”

“…” Bai Chen and Long Yuehong almost laughed At the same time as the voice, Jiang Baiman was speechless and could only touch his ears and said, “Eh, what did you say? Really, can’t you speak louder? Forget it, eat and eat.”

After taking the lead in nibbling compressed biscuits and energy bars and filling the water sacs, Jiang Baiman reminded him in a serious tone:

“Be more careful tonight.

“You guys did the same thing just now. I heard. “

When Bai Chen, Shang Jianyao, and Long Yuehong all responded, Jiang Baiman turned to say with a smile:

“However, rest well when you rest. I have to continue running tomorrow.

“Moreover, we need to start training your ability to find food. This is not only about hunting and searching, but also distinguishing which leaves and rhizomes can eat, which parts of the aberrant animals can be emergency, and which things to eat. How long must the genetic medicine be injected after the virus, and what kind of soil can temporarily serve as food, one or two times… Don’t think that the previous few days were an adventure on the earth. If the food is still sufficient, this can only be called an armed parade. !”

Long Yuehong was terrified, but Shang Jianyao was eager to have a try.

Jiang Baiman thought for a while and added:

“Also, don’t be fooled by those strange religious theories. Although this does provide a certain amount of spiritual comfort, but in the earth this In this environment, it is actually escaping from reality, and the hidden dangers are great.”

Long Yuehong nodded, curiously asked:

“Leader, are there many such strange religions?”

This is something that is rarely mentioned in the “Panga Biology” textbook.

“There are so many. When people are in pain and despair, it is easy to lean towards religion.” Jiang Baiman “Heh” said, “As far as I know, the main city of’First City’ can cause The lower sect is not a little harmful. Two hands may not be counted.”

After reminding, Jiang Baiman took Long Yuehong’s task and patrolled all around, and ordered the team members to review today All encounters.

This night, they did not encounter any accidents. Not long after dawn, the jeep started to drive north.

Seeing that the destination is not far away, Jiang Baiman, the co-pilot, started to introduce the team members:

“The residents of Black Rat Town are actually a group of sub -human.”
