long night fire

In the darkness, countless pairs of blood-red eyes opened, densely packed.

If there seems to be nothing, the nonsense echoes endlessly.

"That's right, I've worked so hard all this time in vain, you've finally had a nightmare." Shang Jianyao said with a relieved smile.

Then, he was divided into ten, and changed into those in the family area of ​​the Fourth Academy.

There are gray-haired old ladies enjoying the shade, middle-aged ladies with good temperament, and men wearing gold-rimmed glasses...

The whole dream suddenly froze, and those blood-red eyes closed at the same time.

Shang Jianyao and the others walked to one place, trying to get in touch with the consciousness of the owner of the room.

Ten seconds later, a shrill voice sounded from all directions:

"Don't come here!"

Shang Jianyao and the others did not stop their steps.

The voice was silent for a while, and then said loudly:

"If I don't do anything, if I don't resist, you will die too!"

The next second, she shouted hoarsely:

"We are just domestic animals raised in captivity!"

Shang Jian Yao's figures froze at the same time.

(End of Part Six)

Summary of Part VI

The sixth part is so short, there is not much to summarize, let's mainly talk about the structure.

This is a relatively typical structure in which two lines run parallel and finally meet, but with the help of the medium of "spiritual corridor", they are integrated into the experience of the same person, instead of two teams constantly transitioning.

The advantage of writing this way is that you can put the key information needed by one line in another line, creating a sense of shock, shock and surprise when they meet.

To be honest, when naming the sixth part "Surprise", the most troublesome thing is how to make people startle. If this effect cannot be achieved, it means that this part is not well written.

In the era mentioned in this chapter, many friends like to open their minds, and they are often guessed in the follow-up, and the guessed plot is bound to be impossible to create a sense of shock.

And forcible turning, without any foreshadowing, 90.00% will cause the story to collapse. Once the foundation of the plot is lost, it can only be maintained by continuing to rely on the brain to continue the magical turning, just like a derailed train, very few will have Good end.

So, storytelling is sometimes a battle of wits and courage with readers, either sloppy and good at hiding, or dare to do things that readers dare not guess, and think about the development after finishing.

According to my personal experience, there are three ways to hide the mystery and achieve the effect of shock or consternation.

The first is to put clues in seemingly insignificant descriptions, details, hidden deeply, and finally connect them.

The second is to mislead everyone in another direction all the time, so that everyone ignores some important reminders.

The third is that the key point is hidden in another line, and it will burst out when the track is merged at the end.

This time I used the third one, because the big boss is in command. Although it was unexpected, many friends still guessed it right, and it couldn't achieve the shocking effect I wanted, so I needed to switch to it again. Then, please, at this time, it is very difficult to pull out something that the readers can't guess from the original line, so we can only consider merging, intersecting, and breaking out other lines.

Well, the writing of this part is quite satisfactory. No matter the volume title or the epistle, they are all presented in the implication. The seventh part is called "Fantasy", which comes from Berlioz's "Symphony Fantastica".

seventh fantasy

Chapter 1 Snow

In the 49th year of the new calendar, on a certain day in February.

Although the Spring Festival is over, the northern part of the Black Marsh wilderness does not feel like winter is coming to an end at all. The ground is covered with white snow. At a glance, the whole world is cold and vast.

"This is much more shocking than the snow scene we saw in Wild Grass City." Long Yue approached the car window with a red face and looked outside, feeling sincerely.

At the same time, on the right side of the driver Shang Jianyao, the small speaker with a blue background and a black surface was playing a song:

"Snowflakes fluttering in the north wind

"The world is boundless..." (Note 1)

"Can't you play some festive music? It's not long after the new year." Jiang Baimian, who was in the co-driver's seat, muttered, "The song you sang at the year-end report performance is very good."

Shang Jian Yao solemnly sighed:

"They are all outside, still immersed in the joyful atmosphere, and it is easy to make omissions.

"Although this is just a field training, we have to take it seriously and not be too slack, otherwise it will not be effective for training."

In order to find the last Buddhist holy place, go to the ice field to explore the city where Shang Jianyao's father disappeared, and find out the real location of the Eighth Research Institute, Jiang Baimian specially organized such a field training, so as not to have a wild heart during the Chinese New Year. When the team members officially went out to perform tasks, they couldn't get into the state for a long time.

Moreover, she also deliberately chose the northern part of the Black Marsh Wilderness, where the climate is close to the edge of the ice sheet, so that the team members can adapt to the hardships of the ice and snow in advance.

In this way, when the ice sheet encounters extreme weather, the "old tune team" will not be at a loss and panic.

Originally, Jiang Baimian wanted to do this thing years ago, but considering that Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were newly married, it was too inappropriate to forcefully organize field training, so he waited until the New Year before he formally filed an application for Xi Yu The minister made a report.

"Hey, what are you talking about, are you the team leader, or am I the team leader?" Jiang Baimian gave Shang Jianyao a blank look.

She then told Long Yuehong:

"Wait until you get out of the car, don't look at the snow scene for too long, or put on sunglasses in advance.

"I remember I told you about snow blindness before."

"Okay." Long Yuehong, who always listened to people's words, took out her black sunglasses and placed them on the bridge of her nose.

Bai Chen, who still had short hair, looked at the passenger seat:

"Looking for a place to rest?"

Now in this area, not only are there no villages and shops behind, but there are no large stones or conspicuous trees. It is endless and white.

"Yeah, it's almost time, we have to eat." Jiang Baimian explained, "In such a climate and such an environment, it is necessary to ensure that the body has sufficient energy and has the leeway to deal with accidents and risks."

beep!beep!beep!

Shang Jianyao clapped his hands in the way of clapping the horn.

Before Jiang Baimian could respond, the jeep slid sideways along the snow-covered road for a long time, making a piercing sound.

Fortunately, there were no other cars here, and there were no gullies or obstacles. The Jeep finally stopped steadily.

"Be careful." Jiang Baimian didn't blame Shang Jianyao for being distracted to shoot the horn, because even if he didn't shoot, he still had to slide.

Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Haven't we already changed the snow tires?"

Since snow survival is included in the field training plan, they will certainly not forget to bring anti-skid tires and replace them in advance.

"Anti-skid tires are not a panacea." Shang Jianyao laughed, "Just like you are at home, it is impossible for Xiaobai to do whatever he says, without any variables."

Long Yuehong was at a loss for words for a moment, she shouldn't, she shouldn't, and she didn't.

"We all listen to whoever has reason." Bai Chen helped out.

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong nodded quickly.

And it's often Xiaobai who makes sense... Jiang Baimian chuckled secretly, preventing Shang Jianyao from continuing to provoke other people's couples.

She pointed to a piece of snow in front of her and said:

"Just stop there, set up a stove, warm up some canned food, and serve with some biscuits."

Shang Jianyao responded by raising his right hand to wipe his mouth.

The jeep stopped quickly, and several members of the "Old Tuning Team" got busy according to the division of labor:

Long Yuehong checked the condition of the solar charging panels on the roof; Shang Jianyao took out the induction cooker and the canned food and biscuits he wanted to eat; Bai Chen used an instrument to measure the pollution level around; Jiang Baimian was in charge of vigilance.

"I haven't collected much solar energy." Long Yuehong was the first to speak.

He then sighed:

"It's not enough to recharge the Jeep, so I can only cook with high-performance batteries.

"If things go on like this, our energy will run out sooner or later, so we have to plan the time of our return journey in advance, so as not to run out of electricity and leave the car still in the snow."

Jiang Baimian laughed and said:

"That's one of the difficulties of going to ice fields.

"We were fortunately in summer before, but after going deep into the ice sheet, we may also encounter extreme weather in summer.

"Don't think it's cold now. In colder conditions, whether the high-performance battery can be used is still a question."

Long Yuehong nodded slowly:

"That's why we need such a training session to help us adapt to various situations."

"Shall we have a snowball fight later?" Shang Jianyao ruined the atmosphere of the discussion with great interest.

Long Yuehong shook her head:

"Do not hit."

This guy is not serious about snowball fights!

Shang Jian Yao sighed regretfully:

"Should I wait for you and Xiaobai to have a child, and when the child grows up, play with him?"

Can't you let Xiaohong and his family go?Jiang Baimian slandered.

However, compared to Shang Jianyao's loss of not being able to fight snowballs, she is more concerned and curious about another question:

Xiaobai and Xiaohong have been married for several months, why haven't they made any progress?

In "Pangaea", once you get married, you have to start preparing for pregnancy. This is the case in every family, without exception.

Although there are some people who have been married for more than a year before their wives conceive, they are a minority after all, and when Long Yuehong and Bai Chen underwent genetic modification before, they had a detailed physical examination and there was no problem in that regard.

Jiang Baimian cared about it, but he also knew that there were some things that he could never ask unless others mentioned them.

No matter how good the relationship is, there must be a sense of boundaries.

She resisted the urge and urged Shang Jianyao to cook:

"hurry up!"

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao turned his attention back to the induction cooker.

Long Yuehong quietly let out a sigh of relief.

During this period of time, his mother, Gu Hong, had already mentioned the "many sons and grandsons talisman" twice, and the implication was self-evident.

He didn't want to go out to practice in the wild and have to bear the pressure of giving birth.

Not long after, the canned braised beef was heated up, and the fragrant smell permeated the snow, causing Long Yuehong to swallow her saliva.

Except for Jiang Baimian who was in charge of guarding, the other three members of the "Old Tune Group" each carried a lunch box, squatted there, and started eating.

After nibbling a mouthful of biscuits covered in juice, Long Yuehong narrowed her eyes contentedly:

"I was tired of it before. I haven't eaten it for a few months, but I found it was quite delicious."

Shang Jian Yao sneered:

"Eat it for another ten days and half a month, and you will shout again that you feel sick when you see canned food."

"Aren't you too?" Long Yuehong retorted.

Shang Jian Yao nodded:

"Yeah yeah."

After a "punch" failed, Long Yuehong could only focus on eating.

When Shangjian Yao finished gobbling it up and replaced it with Jiang Baimian, he and Bai Chen were still enjoying canned braised beef.

While eating, Jiang Baimian pretended to be casual and asked in a chatty manner:

"Xiaobai, according to the company's regulations, newlyweds are not required to go out to work.

"Why haven't you and Xiaohong made a report?"

If others didn't apply, and Minister Xiyu didn't take the initiative to order, she didn't know how to arrange Long Yuehong and Bai Chen for a while, so she could only bring them as usual.
