long night fire

"You are here to trade resources, and we are here to trade resources;

"so……"

In order to save energy, Shang Jianyao used the "reasoning clown" he is more familiar with this time.

The mountain monsters were instantly "persuaded", elected a representative, and asked proactively:

"What resources do you want to trade?"

He used a dialect-like gray earth language.

Jiang Baimian stepped forward two steps:

"We exchanged three boxes of flour for information about the ruins of Iron Mountain City."

These three boxes of flour were exchanged from the "underground ark" with surplus munitions.

The representative of the mountain monster was stunned for a few seconds before saying:

"Just ask."

Jiang Baimian started with the simplest question:

"Did your tribe explore the ruins of Iron Mountain City in the chaotic years?"

"Not at first, it's too dangerous there. Our elders didn't try to collect food until the 'Mindless Ones' were cleared out." The representative of the mountain monster answered quite skillfully.

Jiang Baimian immediately asked:

"Did your elders encounter any weird things there, did you collect useful items or information?"

The representative of the mountain monster shook his head like a rattle:

"All along, we have been mainly looking for food, clothes and quilts, and other items that we occasionally brought back were sold after someone went up the mountain to trade.

"Uh... At that time, there were many powerful 'mindless people' in the ruins of Tieshan City, with terrifying abilities. We only dared to walk around. There is nothing weird about other places."

Jiang Baimian thought for a while and said:

"Did you bring back newspapers, magazines, books?"

Generally speaking, unless you meet a scholar who studies the old world, such items are difficult to trade.

The blue face of the mountain monster representative showed a slightly strange expression:

"There are, and we use them to make fires, plaster walls, make mattresses for the floor, and make teaching materials for children.

"But someone asked about this two days ago, and even read it, but didn't pick out any book."

Someone asked?Just two days ago?Jiang Baimian's eyes suddenly became sharp:

"Which people?"

Shang Jianyao followed suit, extremely "shocked" and heartbroken:

"You, you are not vigilant enough!

"How can you bring a stranger back to the place where the tribe is located?"

The mountain monsters were silent at the same time, as if they didn't realize that this was a very serious problem until this moment.

Chapter 53 Upper Names

After some communication, the "Old Tune Team" discovered that the people who "visited" the mountain monster tribe two days ago turned out to be the group of people who were suspected of being the "Salvation Army" they met before.

Moreover, they seem to have used some kind of ability to make the mountain monsters completely lose their vigilance and be full of enthusiasm for hospitality.

"There are also awakened people among the mountain monsters, but the number is relatively small, and those who can control their entire tribe for a short time and let the influence remain to this day must be the awakened people of the 'spiritual corridor' and above...

"Since the group of people did not take some books, magazines and newspapers from the monster, it means that those things really lack valuable clues, um... we can't make a firm judgment on this matter, they may not have our grasp There is a lot of information, or there is a misplacement of information between the two parties, some clues are just ordinary records in their eyes, and it is not worth making a fuss..." Jiang Baimian's mind was full of thoughts, trying to find out the true meaning hidden under the appearance.

In her opinion, the group of suspected "Salvation Army" people may know more, so they regarded the useful clues of the "Old Tune Group" as normal and stayed in the mountain monster tribe, or they may have relatively little information , I don't understand what earth-shattering secrets some seemingly ordinary words imply.

These two situations are quite possible, and the "old tune team" must pay a certain amount of attention to avoid missing clues with sufficient value.

Thinking of this, Jiang Baimian looked sideways at Shang Jianyao, winked at him, and made a silent gesture.

She means:

let's go!Dare to "make friends"!

Shang Jianyao, who had been languid at first, regained his energy and raised the blue and white loudspeaker again:

"Guys, do you find that something is wrong?

"Should I say thank you and invite us to visit your tribe once?

"As the saying goes, rely on your parents at home and friends when you go out. Make more friends to ensure that you can trade enough food and cloth in the future..."

After some "guidance", all the monsters in front of them and those hidden on the cliff agreed with Shang Jianyao's statement, and decided that it would be better to hit the sun than to choose a day, and began to treat guests warmly today.

Seeing their performance, the smuggling team of "Underground Ark" was stunned and stunned.

Jiang Baimian pondered for a while, and said to Zhou's humanity:

"You complete the transaction now, and then go back directly without following us."

She is not worried that the people of "Underground Ark" will become hostile to the mountain monsters. After knowing the location of their settlements, they will look for opportunities to surround and attack them. After all, the kindness and deterrent power of the five honorary presidents have not declined too much. She is just afraid of " After the people from the "Underground Ark" knew where the mountain monsters' lairs were, they leaked it to the townspeople in Hongshiji in their daily contacts.

Those townspeople and the mountain monster tribe have blood feuds.

"Yes, President Xue!" The leader of the Ark guard who was in charge of this smuggling team immediately agreed.

They also don't want to climb mountains and wade to the mountain monster settlements that are of little value to them.

At this time, Long Yuehong raised a question:

"What about our car?"

There is a high probability that the mountain monster's lair is in a place that is not open to traffic, so that it can help them display their talents and avoid most dangers.

"It's a pity, it can't turn into a robot and follow us." Shang Jian Yao looked regretful.

He misses Tarnan's "Autobots" a lot.

Jiang Baimian originally wanted Long Yuehong and Bai Chen to guard the car, and he and Shang Jianyao went to the mountain monster's lair to advance, attack, retreat, or defend, but after looking at Bai Chen, he found that she was not too happy, so he had no choice but to "underground" The smuggling team of the Ark said:

"Leave two of you here and watch the car for us."

After explaining the precautions, she, Shang Jianyao, and Long Yuehong each carried a crate containing military exoskeleton devices, stuffed some high-performance batteries into the tactical backpack, followed the mountain monster, and walked into a gradually rugged road. Difficult mountain roads.

——Bai Chen was in charge of the crates containing the two bionic smart armors.

……

The mountain monsters live on a cliff, and some places on the way are steep, not to mention whether vehicles can pass through. Even normal humans, it is not that easy to climb over, and the mountain monsters with blue faces and fangs are carrying different clothes. The boxes of supplies, like walking on flat ground, striding like flying.

Fortunately, the "Old Tune Group" are all genetically modified or modified, and they are agile, and they can barely keep up.

After arriving at the destination, Jiang Baimian looked around and saw many mountain monsters, big and small, but he didn't find anyone who was particularly old.

Most of them were simply dressed in animal skins, except for the children who each had clothes that were not so well-cut because of the maintenance of the smuggling business.

Seeing the adults returning with their boxes on their backs, these children watched eagerly, expecting that their father, uncle, or mother, or aunt would take out a piece of sour and sweet plum candy from their pockets, throw it to themselves, and say that when they traded, Changed some by the way.

But today, their wish seems to be coming true.

Shang Jianyao picked up the blue and white loudspeaker, improved his previous words, and persuaded the mountain monsters in this cliff camp over and over again.

Only one of the mountain monster tribes lives here, and the total number is only in the early [-]s. Shang Jianyao only repeated it three times before completing the work.

——Calm and rational, he strictly divides his "persuasion" according to groups, starting with those who may be awakened and those who are older and experienced, then those who are normal in all aspects, and finally targeting the ignorant children.

Seeing that all the monsters became enthusiastic, Shang Jianyao held his eyelids with one hand to prevent them from falling, and reached into his pocket with the other hand, and took out a large handful of colorful candies.

"Why did you bring so much sugar?" Long Yue's red eyes almost popped out.

He could recognize at a glance that the candy in Shang Jianyao's hand came from within the company and needed to be exchanged with contribution points.

Back then when he was still on a blind date, when he was showing his prestige in front of his younger siblings, he was no stranger to these candies.

Shang Jian Yao replied weakly:

"Among us, there is a young boy who likes to wear clothes from when he was a child, and also likes to eat candy."

As he spoke, he put on a smile and said to those mountain monster children:

"Want to eat?

"Each one, but you have to say 'thank you brother' to me before eating, and you have to learn how to dance a few times after eating."

This is the young Shang Jianyao?Long Yuehong seemed to understand something.

The mountain monster children who had been "guided by thinking" to eliminate their vigilance gathered around Shang Jianyao amid the indulgent smiles of the adults, and shouted "Thank you brother" crisply.

Their childish voices are indistinguishable from normal human cubs.

Jiang Baimian watched quietly for a while, then greeted Bai Chen and Long Yuehong, entered the cave on the cliff, and with the help of the owner, gathered the books, magazines, and newspapers they had collected.

"Does what you said before only refer to your tribe, or does it include other mountain monster tribes?" Jiang Baimian asked cautiously.

The previous mountain monster representative scratched his head:

"We only have one tribe, but there are too many people. If we get together, we can't fit in the safer places in the mountains, and the clean water can't keep up with it. It's easy to be polluted, so we have to live separately by family name.

"How can we trade with you as a family? We can't make up so many things by ourselves."

Jiang Baimian felt relieved and smiled:

"Then trouble you to borrow all the books, magazines and newspapers from them when you hand over the supplies to other big names."

"Okay." The representative of the mountain monster said with no embarrassment, "they don't have many there. Only our surname likes to collect books and magazines. Let me tell you, before the destruction of the old world, our surname was admitted to a good school. Most people!"

"What's your surname?" Bai Chen interrupted and asked.

The representative of the mountain monster replied proudly:

"Our ancestor is the Li family of Sanyang."

Shanyang is to the north of the ruins of Tieshan City. Many people went abroad in the past, and some of them settled in the city where Hongshiji is located in the Nuhu Lake area.

Before Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen could respond, the mountain monster representative emphasized another sentence:

"We are from the Li family in Sanyang, not monsters or subhumans."

Long Yuehong suddenly felt inexplicable, turned around, and cast her gaze outside the cave.

After seeing a mountain monster child stuffing candy into his mouth, instead of throwing away the colorful candy wrapper, he crumpled it up and put it in his trouser pocket.

"It's worthless." Long Yuehong reminded kindly.

The mountain monster boy replied loudly but vaguely:

"It, it's so beautiful!"

Long Yuehong was speechless.

After Shang Jianyao and the children finished the group dance, they found a place to lie down and sleep directly, while Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and Bai Chen began to read the written materials collected by the monster.

In order to improve efficiency, they all read the table of contents or titles first, and only pick out the ones that may have problems and put them aside for careful reading later.

During this process, Bai Chen suddenly noticed a title:

"23-year-old genius scientist Lin Sui"

Chapter 54 Recovered Data

The magazine in Bai Chen's hand no longer had a cover and many front pages, and it looked tattered. Even the title, she could see from the header.

"Hey, the journal I found in that psychological shadow." Bai Chen handed the magazine to Jiang Baimian.

The paper used for this magazine is quite good. Even after decades, the situation of yellowing and brittleness is not serious, and the touch is tough and slippery.

"Lin Sui?" Jiang Baimian didn't hide his surprise, took the "People" journal, and quickly browsed through only a small part of the interview.

In the interview, the young woman called a genius scientist mainly talked about her outlook on life, world outlook and values, but did not mention what she is currently researching or where she works.

After simply flipping through it, Jiang Baimian felt that this was a normal old world scientist, and there was nothing worthy of attention.

You must know that before the destruction of the old world, all major countries had developed science and technology, and even if there were not a hundred young people who could be called scientists, they definitely exceeded fifty. Not every one of them would join the Nine Research Institute projects.

Jiang Baimian collected himself and decided to read the interview carefully from beginning to end for confirmation.

Anyway, there is only half of this interview left, and the sum of all the words does not exceed six thousand.
