Chapter 538: The Way Back
Zhang Heng slowed down the car according to Vitas's words, and the gray Lada slowly drove past Aunt Soke's door, but fortunately, what everyone was worried about did not happen in the process, and the hut was very quiet, and there was almost no movement.
Although it was not yet night, the sky had already begun to darken, Zhang Heng looked at the direction of the window, it was pitch black, and the curtain blocked it tightly, and no one knew what the strange old woman named Sok was doing inside now.
Zhang Heng glanced twice, and Sneerina's voice came from behind him, "Let's go, go back to eat barbecue early." ”
Zhang Heng hummed, retracted his gaze, and then stepped on the accelerator, and the car began to pick up speed, leaving the hut on the hillside behind.
…………
Zhang Heng and the hostess stayed in the countryside for a total of two days, and in addition to hunting, the two also went to the river to catch fish.
Snerana originally wanted to show herself in front of Zhang Heng, after all, hunting is a man's sport, and she used to fish with her grandfather when she was very young, so this technique is still very good.
But what she didn't expect was that she couldn't even win against someone in fishing.
Zhang Heng seemed to have just chosen a random place, threw down the bait, and soon there would be fish to bite the hook, and after a morning, Snerana looked at the fish in Zhang Heng's bucket, and then looked at the fish in her bucket, and the Kiev meatloaf prepared by her grandmother in her hand was instantly not fragrant.
"It's so unfair," Snerena protested, throwing away her fishing rod, "why are you so good at hunting and fishing, even if you learn languages so quickly?" ”
"There's no trick, it's just a lot of practice." Zhang Heng lifted the fishing rod, took the newly caught fish from the hook, and put it into his wooden barrel.
I have to admit that life in the countryside is still very comfortable.
Except for the white mare he met by the stream before, and the old woman named Sok who lived alone in the west of the village, Zhang Heng didn't encounter anything strange.
Everything here is beautiful, the people are simple and the air is clean, so it's no wonder that many residents of Pripyat also want to go to the nearby villages on weekends and holidays.
Unfortunately, in less than two years, it will be contaminated by nuclear radiation, and even the wildlife will be cleaned up by the militia as a mobile radioactive source, and it will not be until a few decades later that animals will return to the area, settle here, trees and vegetation will grow again, and even some people who cherish their homeland will secretly return to settle here despite warnings.
It's just that the radiation has also been left on this land for a long time, like a curse.
With the bread and sausages made by Sneerna's grandmother, Zhang Heng and Snerina embarked on the road back again.
There are still more than 400 days left in the game time of this parallel dungeon, and Zhang Heng has basically learned everything he can learn in the nuclear power plant, because of his excellent skills and excellent interpersonal relationship handling skills, Zhang Heng even became the director of the steam turbine department.
Later, Bryukhanov also talked to him, suggesting that he would wait for him to accumulate another three or five years of experience, and he would be promoted to the operation department as deputy chief engineer, and Zhang Heng was only in his early thirties at that time, this progress rate can be said to be a monkey, and he will also be the youngest deputy chief engineer in the history of the nuclear power plant.
However, Zhang Heng himself did not have much interest in this appointment. He entered this parallel copy to find a solution to the main mission, not to play with Durala's promotion, and the reason why he became the director of the steam turbine department was also to become a high-level nuclear power plant, and it was more convenient to have access to some more core documents.
Now that his work in the nuclear power plant is almost complete, he naturally does not care whether he is promoted or not, and according to Bryukhanov, the parallel copy will be over at that time, and he will not be here.
So in the following days, Zhang Heng also announced that he had become a salted fish with practical actions, and the work within his scope was still very good, but he didn't care much about other things.
Miss Usher was pleasantly surprised to find that Zhang Heng seemed to have a lot of more time since she came back from the countryside, and the two of them usually wandered around the town when they were idle, from shopping malls to restaurants, and even the newly built amusement park, Zhang Heng took her to play.
And when I went shopping, the hostess found that she was not Zhang Heng's opponent at all, the latter often walked all day, and even some corners and corners were not let go, and Zhang Heng seemed to be particularly concerned about urban construction, and when he heard that there was a start of construction, he would run over to see.
It is difficult for Sneerna to understand the men's innate enthusiasm for excavators, but overall she is quite satisfied with her current life, even if Zhang Heng has completed his language studies, but is still paying Sneerina's salary on time, which makes Sneerina a a little embarrassed, and takes the initiative to take care of groceries and housework.
However, she occasionally saw Zhang Heng standing in front of the window late at night, looking at the city at her feet, not knowing what she was thinking.
Once you stop deliberately counting time, time will fly faster.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Heng stayed in the parallel copy until the 1440th day, and on this morning, Snerana and her friends went to the gymnasium to watch the game, leaving Zhang Heng alone at home, and he glanced at the clock on the wall.
Glancing at the starfish in his hand again, there was only one second left before 24 o'clock, Zhang Heng adjusted his breathing and lay down on the sofa.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the hammock, and a feeling of weakness came over him.
- It's nuclear fatigue that hasn't been seen for a long time.
Zhang Heng knew that his physical state had been reset back to before entering the parallel copy, the good news was that he already knew his current physical condition, including the timeline of deterioration after that, and the bad news was that he had to feel the pain of his body being destroyed by nuclear radiation again.
Zhang Heng didn't want to go through what he had experienced in the ward before, even if he could tolerate and deal with the pain better than ordinary people, and he couldn't be sure if this treatment would still go as smoothly as last time, no, Zhang Heng was almost certain that this time would definitely not go as smoothly as last time, so he needed to quickly clear this round of dungeons before his body deteriorated to the point where he couldn't move.
However, Zhang Heng knew that this would not be an easy task, but fortunately, after a 4-year parallel copy, he was also ready.
