long night fire

"Are you resting today?" He greeted familiarly.

The middle-aged man froze for a moment, shook his head and said with a smile:

"Just go home and eat.

"you are?"

Shang Jian Yao is not guilty at all:

"I just came back from out of town. The wind and rain have blown my whole body out of shape."

"Oh." The man in the gold-rimmed glasses felt guilty for a while, thinking that it was his fault that he didn't recognize the other party.

Implanting good thinking, Shang Jianyao chatted casually:

"I was sent to the Third Academy."

"Isn't that very south?" The man wearing gold-rimmed glasses was extremely surprised.

Obviously, he had heard of the Third Academy.

Shang Jian Yao showed a smile:

"Yeah, it's all over the beach.

"If you don't believe me, the Third Research Institute is now called 'Mechanical Paradise'. Almost all the robots I meet are intelligent robots."

"Naturally, they were originally studying artificial intelligence." The man with the gold-rimmed eyes thought there was nothing wrong with it.

Shang Jianyao covered up his cold eyes, and the corner of his mouth slightly hooked:

"I heard from the people there that the lower the number of the research institute, the more high-end and valuable the research projects are."

"It's a meaningless guess. Our research is similar to that of the Second Research Institute, but there is a certain difference in direction. Who can say that it is definitely higher-end and more valuable than the other?" The middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses responded to this remark. scoffed.

"Yes!" Shang Jianyao replied in a tone of deep approval.

After chatting for a while, he turned to the old lady who was enjoying the shade outside a building.

Although the old lady had a lot of white hair, she was very energetic. She was sitting on a bench under a tree, looking at the pedestrians around her.

"You are?" The old lady noticed Shang Jianyao's approach.

Shang Jianyao grinned:

"I am the person sent by the Third Research Institute to visit your research institute.

"I want to know, are you really the first research institute established in the old world?"

The old lady looked at this guy with eyes like a fool for a while:

"Did you remember wrongly?

"We are the Fourth Academy here!"

"How is it possible? Could it be that the people above gave the wrong information?" Shang Jian Yao Qiqing performed above.

During this process, he secretly laughed viciously:

"It turned out to be the Fourth Academy."

He immediately frowned:

"Where is the danger here?

"The second psychological shadow described in the guide does not seem to be like this...

"Could it be that I used an unconventional method in the first psychological shadow and took the initiative to accept the anesthetic injection, so I jumped directly to the third psychological shadow?"

The calm and rational Shang Jianyao looked around solemnly, looking for places where danger might lurk.

Chapter 11 Hazardous areas

"Grandma, thank you." Shang Jianyao waved his hand and bid farewell to the old lady who was enjoying the shade under the tree.

He deftly switched identities, greeted people of different ages and states, and chatted about various things to figure out what this place was.

In this way, he chatted until his mouth was dry and his spirit was exhausted, and he roughly confirmed that he was currently in the family area of ​​the Fourth Academy.

This research institute is located deep in the uninhabited wasteland, and the main body is underground, similar to "Pangaea".

After the destruction of the old world, because several farms and pastures attached to them were not affected, they survived tenaciously until the 21st year of the new calendar.

Yes, in the memory of the owner of the room, it is now the 21st year of the new calendar.

However, the people Shang Jianyao met in this psychological shadow at present seem to be smart, can chat, and have their own memories, but they are not as good as those passengers in the shadow of the cruise ship, because once his thinking jumps, the topic will be far away. People here not only can't answer, but also talk nonsense, and the bull's head is wrong with the horse's mouth.

Based on this, Shang Jianyao judged that the reason why they were able to have questions and answers, and seemed to be chatting normally, was because the owner of the room had been with them for a long time, and various conversations occurred from time to time, involving many things.

After these memories are mobilized by the subconscious, the corresponding characters seem quite real.

"I still haven't encountered any danger. It's as if I'm back home." The honest Shang Jianyao didn't hide his doubts.

The calm and rational Shang saw Yao deliberate and said:

"Maybe the focus of this psychological shadow is not the courage to face danger directly, so naturally there is no danger floating on the surface."

The current psychological shadow does not exist in the strategy given by "Panguan Creatures". "Rules", at most two psychological shadows will be evacuated, and Shang Jianyao suspects that he skipped the second psychological shadow because he took an unusual path in the first psychological shadow.

"Then what should we do?" The reckless Shang Jianyao blurted out, "We've chatted for a while, and apart from finding out some information, we don't have any clues."

He was referring to the clues to get past this psychological shadow.

Chan Master Pudu was quite calm about this:

"It's fine if you can't find it.

"It's a big deal to change to another room with a strategy."

During the discussion, Shang Jianyao did not forget to look around.

Combined with some details he noticed in the previous chat, he gradually discovered an abnormality:

None of the people in this family area has ever approached the exit gate!

No matter how complex and diverse their trajectories are, they do not involve that area.

"Is it because the psychological shadow of the owner of the room is at the exit, so that everyone here 'subconsciously' avoids it, or did the family area of ​​the Fourth Research Institute really have regulations not to approach that area?" The calm and rational Shang Jianyao Mosao Chin up.

He didn't wait for other colleagues to join the discussion, and suddenly handed over his body to the reckless one.

The reckless Shang Jianyao immediately turned around and walked towards the exit door.

The other businessmen saw that Yao would give it a try, to see if it could stimulate a beneficial change of mind, and chose to default one after another. Only the vicious and vicious one controlled his mouth, and kept rambling:

"Don't have the daring mentality of a master of arts!

"Don't think that all the psychological shadows related to Zhi Sui have come over, how could such a simple room capsize in the gutter.

"This is related to the nine major research institutes of the old world, it is better to be cautious!"

While rambling, Shang Jianyao slowly approached the gate area.

Calm and calm.

He turned back quickly, looked at those people in the family area, and found that no one paid attention to him.

Shang Jianyao kept the current posture unchanged, and moved step by step towards the gate with the iron fence with the sentry post in the way of retreating.

All of a sudden, those people in the family area who were enjoying the shade or busy or coming and going turned their gazes over at the same time.

The white-haired old lady sitting on the bench under the tree showed a frightened expression.

Others were flustered, nervous, and angry, as if Shang Jianyao had offended them, while others were full of hatred and hatred, as if they were saying with their eyes, "Why do you dare to do what we dare not do?"

Rumble!

There was a sudden explosion in the gate area, and a flame rose with smoke and dust, turning into a huge mushroom.

Shang Jian Yao rushed out ahead of time, and a military exoskeleton device appeared on his body.

With the help of this thing, he leaped tens of meters and was not enveloped by the explosion, but his back was still hit by the air wave.

Paji, even with a military exoskeleton device, Shang Jianyao couldn't maintain his balance, and fell so dizzy that he felt like his bones were broken.

At the same time, the expressions of those people in the family area changed again.

Their expressions were cold, their faces were stiff, and their eyes lacked any emotion. They seemed to have died long ago, but they all stared at the intruder who tried to break the stable life of themselves and others.

Seeing this, Shang Jianyao immediately shouted:

"Don't move!"

Where his voice came, everyone stopped moving, as if they were playing a game of one, two, three wooden men.

Teng Teng Teng, Shang Jianyao, who was wearing a military exoskeleton device, ran wildly, jumping from time to time like a thorn on his back.

Finally, he ran to the building where he first appeared.

With one step, he left the "506" room, rushed to the corridor, and then lay down on the surface of the dark yellow thick carpet without any image, spread his limbs, and gasped for breath.

After a while, the honest Shang Jian Yao said twice:

"Don't talk about Wude!

"Why not warn first, then shoot, then bomb?

"How can a normal person plant that kind of equivalent landmine at the door? There are still guards there!"

The vicious Shang Jianyao sneered:

"It's a psychological shadow, and it doesn't strictly compare with reality.

"As long as the owner of the room has encountered it, or even just seen it, the corresponding things may be piled up in the same place.

"I told you, be careful, you don't believe me!"

"Namo Ayutara Samyak Sambodhi was just injured by the blast, and his spirit was a little traumatized, so it's not a big problem." Chan Master Pudu replied calmly.

The calm and rational Shang Jianyao said thoughtfully:

"I suspect that not only is there a problem with the gate area, anyone who tries to leave that family area will encounter various dangers.

"This is a reflection of the corresponding fear of the owner of the room."

"So, if you face these dangers, you have overcome the psychological shadow?" The reckless Shang Jianyao manipulated his body and stood up, with the appearance of "go back now, and get bombed a few more times".

He was forcibly restrained.

The calm and rational Shang Jianyao rubbed his chin:

"I always thought it wouldn't be that simple.

"The fear corresponding to each psychological shadow is different to a certain extent. Simply avoiding danger and escaping from a certain place has already been experienced before.

"Exploring more and clarifying this issue, I think it will be safer."

"Yes, yes." Shang Jianyao, who had no opinion, agreed.

The vicious Shang Jianyao sided with his most hated colleague this time.

Since everyone was bombed, injured, and needed to recover mentally, Shang Jianyao and the others withdrew from the "spiritual corridor" and fell into a deep sleep.

……

Floor 349, Block C, No. 12.

Because his parents went to a colleague's house as a guest, Jiang Baimian stayed leisurely in the study alone, browsing some public information with his father Jiang Wenfeng's account.

Not finding anything interesting, she took out the pattern on the multi-children and grandson talisman she copied, opened the old world folklore database she built, and tried to search and compare.

For this reason, she also specially used a drawing board to sketch out the corresponding patterns.

"No one is exactly the same." Jiang Baimian was busy for a while, looking at the computer screen, and muttered to himself silently, "It can only be said that it looks more similar at first glance, but the corresponding rules are not followed in reality. Of course, it may also be that my database is not perfect enough. , due to many omissions."

After pondering for a while, Jiang Baimian disassembled the pattern.

After dismantling and reassembling again and again, she frowned slightly.

From the simplest point of view, the pattern is composed of a woman and a baby, both of which have a hint of pictographs, but Jiang Baimian is sure that they are not real pictographs.

"A woman and a baby are enough in meaning, but it seems that they don't care enough, it's too simple..." Jiang Baimian shook his head, planning to hear the results of Long Yuehong's inquiry tomorrow.

The next morning, room 647 on the 14th floor.
