long night fire

"How many rooms and how many nights do you want?"

"Two, twin beds, with bathroom, let's do it for a week." Jiang Baimian had already considered this issue.

The innkeeper replied through the loudspeaker:

"What materials can you pay for?"

"Military cans." Shang Jianyao answered without hesitation.

During the period of going south, the "Old Tune Group" was a little tired of eating canned food again.

"It must have never been opened." The hotel owner emphasized, so as not to be poisoned simply by someone.

She went on to say:

"1 can per room per night for a total of 14 cans.

"You open the metal door on the wall, put the cans in and close the door."

Jiang Baimian motioned for Shang Jianyao to open the metal door that looked like a window on the wall.

Inside was a hollowed-out platform with the same metal door on the other side.

Seeing that Yao was not in a hurry to back away, Shang took the initiative to say:

"We still want masks."

"Four masks are a gift." The hotel owner replied.

Seeing Yao bursting with joy, Shang asked curiously:

"If I don't ask, will you offer it?"

"No." The hotel owner was very calm.

Shang Jianyao still wanted to say something, but Long Yuehong, who had been hinted by Jiang Baimian, took a few steps forward holding the cardboard box, counted 14 cans, and put them on a tray on the platform.

Immediately afterwards, he closed the outer metal door.

With a click, the metal door seemed to be locked.

Shang Jianyao immediately heard a sound of friction coming from inside, so he asked seriously:

"What if she takes the can and runs away?"

Jiang Baimian smiled like a villain:

"Then bring our bazooka and blast it at the wall here!"

After another few tens of seconds, the horn rang in the high part of the room:

"You can open the door and take the electronic card and mask."

Shang Jianyao, who had been standing by the wall, opened the metal door enthusiastically.

The cans in the tray were gone, and there were two more electronic cards in white plastic casings and a cloth mask stacked indiscriminately.

Shang Jian Yao didn't even look at the two electronic cards, he just shook off the cloth mask and carefully selected them.

These four masks are a delicate monk, a monkey with a hairy face and sharp mouth, a fat pig with garlic in its nostrils, and a vicious man with a beard.

"It's boring, it's boring..." Shang Jianyao first ruled out monks and men.

Obviously, he thought it was too common.

After some comparisons, he chose the strutting monkey and put the mask on his face.

Jiang Baimian shook his head helplessly:

"You have never seen a real monkey, and you can't imitate the essence."

"Yes." Shang Jian Yao was very regretful.

Jiang Baimian moved closer and ruled out the fat pig mask immediately.

In the end, she chose the delicate monk mask.

Long Yuehong endured her anxiety, and said to Bai Chen humbly:

"You first."

Bai Chen was not polite, and took away the mask of the vicious man.

Long Yuehong sighed silently, and could only accept the result.

"These masks remind me of some stories from the old world." Jiang Baimian grabbed the electronic card while reaching out, and said casually, "I will tell you when I have time."

There are labels on the two electronic cards, one is "05" and the other is "06".

According to the hotel owner's introduction, the four members of the "Old Tune Group" drove away from the underground Red Stone Collection and went around to the other side of the hill.

This is a flat land surrounded by trees, and there are many rows of simple blue and white houses.

At this time, the sky had dimmed, and the surrounding area seemed silent and deserted, as if no one existed at all.

But whether it was Jiang Baimian or Bai Chen, they could all sense that there were people hiding in some hidden places nearby, monitoring this side.

Rooms "05" and "06" are close to the hills and are relatively spacious. In addition to two single beds, tables, chairs and sofas, they also have their own bathrooms for bathing.

"Take a break, and deal with it later." Jiang Baimian was quite satisfied with the environment of the simple hotel, and didn't want to enter the Red Stone Collection again to find the hidden restaurant owner.

"Yes, team leader!" Long Yuehong and Bai Chen responded in unison.Shang Jian Yao was quite regretful.

……

After the sky completely darkened, damp and cold air soaked into the room, making Long Yuehong feel cold while listening to the team leader telling stories about the old world.

He regretted a little why he didn't come back with an extra set of clothes.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of room "05".

Shang Jianyao, who had sensed it for a long time, put on the monkey mask, came to the door, and asked:

"Squeak?"

"..." The people outside the door were obviously stunned.

Jiang Baimian sighed helplessly:

"Use human words."

Don't imitate monkeys!

Shang Jian Yao returned to normal:

"Who?"

"Is Qianbai here?" A man outside spoke in Huitu language.

Qian Bai was Bai Chen's name when he registered as a hunter.

"What can I do for you?" Bai Chen stood up and put on the mask.

The man outside the door lowered his voice:

"I have a task to entrust to you."

"Why?" Bai Chen asked.

"Because you are an 'intermediate hunter', and you are about to become a 'senior hunter'." The man outside the door simply explained.

Bai Chen glanced at Jiang Baimian and saw her nodding slightly, so she said to Shang Jianyao:

"Open the door."

Shang Jianyao immediately opened the door, and stretched his monkey mask face forward a little.

The man outside the door was about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a black cloak and a mask with black stripes on a white background. He was not surprised to see a scary "monkey".

In redstone sets, this is basic "etiquette".

What mask has he never seen?

After entering the door, the man crossed his hands, put them in front of him, and took a step back:

"Always be vigilant."

"Are you a member of the Vigilance Sect?" Bai Chen led the conversation, and Jiang Baimian chose to listen in with great interest.

The man in the cloak and the mask nodded:

"I am Bishop Renato of the Vigilant Sect in Redstone."

"Sit down." Bai Chen pointed to the empty seat on the sofa.

Shang Jianyao continued to guard the door, folded his arms, and put on an appearance that I was a thug.

When Renato sat down, Bai Chen asked:

"As the mainstream sect of the Redstone Collection, you should have considerable strength. Why did you entrust me and my team?"

Renato was silent for a moment and said:

"Some things are not convenient for believers to know, so I didn't pass the Hunter's Guild."

"If it's too difficult, don't worry about it." Bai Chen chose to use his own style to communicate.

Renato said quite honestly:

"I don't know if it's difficult or not, or how dangerous it is."

"Then let's talk briefly first." Bai Chen nodded.

Renato glanced at the others in the room:

"You should have heard Gaudí say something about our sect.

"We just held a mass a few days ago, and the theme was still 'hiding' to please the gods, which is the 'Yougu' who we believe in.

"In this hiding game, there is still one person who has not been found."

Hearing this, Shang Jian Yao replied:

"Ville!"

"Yes." Renato affirmed, "Because he has been hiding for almost three days and everyone else has been found, I decided to end the mass and let him come out, and it turned out..."

Having said that, Renato's tone changed slightly. As for his expression, he couldn't see it because he was wearing a mask:

"In the end, I didn't find him either.

"And he didn't take the initiative to come out."

What's wrong with me?It seems that you are better at finding people than other believers?Because it is an awakened person, can it sense the existence of consciousness?Is Veyer dead, or has he awakened on his own, able to hide his consciousness?Jiang Baimian grasped Renato's words and began to analyze them in his heart.

Bai Chen nodded slightly:

"You want us to help you find Veyer?"

"Well." Renato sighed, "If something goes wrong during the mass ceremony, believers will question my piety and think that I have shamed the gods."

Bai Chen pretended to discuss with the team members, first glanced at Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong, and then looked at Jiang Baimian.

Jiang Baimian nodded slightly.

Bai Chen immediately responded to Renato:

"We can take on this task and believe in your credit, but without knowing the details, I don't guarantee that it will be completed."

"I understand." Renato expressed his understanding, "What kind of reward do you hope to get?"

"Introduce me to an arms dealer who can buy heavy weapons and advanced equipment." Bai Chen said calmly, "This is part of it. The rest will be discussed after the site has been explored, and we will pay after we find Vier."

Simply making an introduction is no burden for Renato, he replied without hesitation:

"no problem.

"Then when are you going to investigate the site?"

"It's already dark, let's do it tomorrow morning." Bai Chen was not in a hurry.

"Yes, very vigilant." Renato praised, got up and said, "Tomorrow morning, you will drive along the road outside the park to the lakeside, and someone will be waiting there."

"Okay." Bai Chen stood up, "I wish you a happy cooperation."

Renato crossed his hands again, put them on his chest, and took a step back:

"Vigilance is a prompt from God."
