Chapter 135: Life
The night has come at some point, and in places that I have not noticed, it has indeed shown its unique charm, and the twilight mixed with fear swallows up everything visible at this time. If you can't see it, it means that the things that are shrouded in darkness lose their natural status, and they are no longer themselves. They are about to be assimilated, and they are on the verge of an inescapable end.
Paglia was at a loss, he didn't know what to do. It's just because I seem a little lost. He wanted to accompany the quiet years in his heart for one more time, but because of the arrival of night. Everything is getting more dangerous again.
Because of the influence of darkness, he couldn't observe the speed at which the moving space not far away was moving in his direction, and maybe it would catch up with him in a little time. And I am still in the dark, not knowing what the real situation is. I've really spent a lot of time here, until now!
I can't stand it anymore. So it's time to set out, and no matter what the situation is like in this swampy vegetation environment full of traps, you still have to cross this land in search of true salvation!
The sky is clear and cloudy, and there is no light. The lonely environment that could not be seen silently exuded its own aura, and it slowly gathered its strength in the shadows, patiently waiting for its prey to sit still, and then beat it all when they showed their feet!
Paglia walks very carefully, on the one hand, it is necessary to maintain a certain sense of crisis about the specific manifestations of those threats behind it. On the other hand, it is still necessary to watch your feet so as not to fall into a miserable situation like that tree. Since it was persecuted in such an area, the real culprit must have been hiding beneath a layer of soil. Then hunt yourself back with joy.
It is inevitable that there will be some pessimism, and in such an environment. Puglia knew she couldn't be cowardly, not only for himself, but also for Xiaoyun. This life is still interesting, and I still have something to ask for! Isn't it?
The dirt under his feet suddenly loosened, and Paglia quickly reacted and pulled out his right foot suddenly. One jumped off where he had put his foot, and he told himself that it was just not to be surprised. Maybe it's just a simple dirt pit! Although he is already using positive psychological cues to make himself not think about other possibilities!
But I still feel a little creepy, because I can't easily reveal my position, that is, I can't turn on the lights here. The path he was now taking was entirely planned by the detection device on the autologous ecological device. Even though the peaks and peaks don't appear on the retina of the eye, they can't be detected that far at all!
But it is more than enough to deal with a range of several tens of meters around yourself! But I can't help but scare myself because of a momentary desertion! It's the kind of potholed terrain that shows only a superimposed layer of display in the final detection and integration results. So it's easy to miss the importance of them.
That's why Paglia just stumbled! Maybe it's because I didn't notice! But that's not the case in the real subconscious - there must be something like a rat that behaves like this under its feet.
That's why as an audience, I will be caught off guard! The reason is simple, those potholed upper mouths are not similar to the various irregular openings that naturally occur in nature!
On the contrary, there are very clear round holes, which makes Puglia very nerve-wracking! Obviously, the frontal area that he rashly broke into would not be a dangerous place in the natural sense, but a trap place combined with the wisdom of some kind of creature! You won't be broken through by yourself at all. In a very simple way!
However, there is no need to retreat, and decisively moving forward is the most practical way to deal with it! It has been said a long time ago that when you can't figure out the situation, moving forward is the best way to alleviate the situation, and it has been very clear that sitting back and waiting for death has been very clear, compared to the active exploration behavior, undecided will only kill yourself after all! Surrounded, teased, eaten!
However, the earth's crust loosened and something came out!
……
Lin and Armin have already returned to headquarters!
Along the way, the two were silent, not at all like the tacit understanding that a partner should have, it seemed that there was no normal communication, but this was what they themselves thought they didn't need. Armin was concentrating on the results of his expedition, and Lynn was very amuseful and did not disturb him.
For a long time, Amin sat in his chair like a sitting statue without saying a word. His eyes were closed, and he looked like he was asleep, but he was immersed in his own world and couldn't come out, and he couldn't escape. What about Lynn! There is nothing important to do either!
It seems that after that fruitless investigation, there was no message from above, and an action that could arouse people's morale was extinguished. Whether intentional or unintentional, the next opportunity to go out and see the world may be many years away! Although I know that the world used to be beautiful, it is already in a state of devastation!
The word popped up in my head for no reason - Escape this moment! I understand that it means to flee from this moment. When boring, monotonous, boring, and so on become the spokesperson of the main theme of life. It's a good idea to give up on life! Lynn thought about it too! Just as Amin was thinking about things!
Here, there wasn't even anything that could hold up the mood to relax and be recited by the participants. It seems that the superiors only want to squeeze everyone's labor, and when the low-level participants get tired of it, their value will come to an end, perhaps because they leave voluntarily, or maybe some other enforcers "help" them to leave.
……
"The resources are not too abundant anymore......", in a dimly lit room. An old man in a tuxedo is reporting the current situation at the headquarters to the fat man munching and drinking at the dinner table!
The old man had gray temples, and he was about sixty years old and five years old.
His body was very steady, and he did not show the slightest trembling. It is a common problem that people who are old and cannot control their own bodies, but it is not reflected in him!
The old man groveled and looked like an old-fashioned butler, but his high eyebrows seemed to be silently protesting against the role at hand. He is not willing to be mediocre, maybe so, but he is always defeated by reality! So I was a housekeeper for life!
Even if he is now the identity of the entire logistics director, the former and the latter are naturally two different postures! Wherever your power comes from, you should bow your head, right? It is! Otherwise it will be washed out!
"Oh! Lao Zhang! I know! ", the fat man expressed his attitude in a slightly comical tone - he understood. Other than that, there is no indication, it seems that if you delay for a few seconds, the matsutake steak in front of you will disappear like space being swallowed by a black hole! Picking up the knife and fork, there seemed to be no etiquette, and he directly cut off the bloody small half!
I can't wait to stuff it into my mouth and reveal a gesture of intoxication! "Sit, sit, sit!" "You're welcome! Lao Zhang", the fat man's small eyes glanced at and saw that the old man was still standing beside him. Only then did I think that I called Lao Zhang over to ask him something. But this old Zhang is also quite clever, and he deserves to be a good hand who has been with him for many years! is still as smart as he was young, and his original vision was good!
"Haha. Not bad! ”
As he spoke, he swallowed another part of the steak and muttered a few words that didn't make sense. I don't know what I'm talking about, whether I'm praising the tenderness of the steak and how juicy it is, or whether Lao Zhang is good at it and understands his taste!
Lao Zhang watched such a feasting scene quietly beside him, and did not sit down. If he really went to sit down, he wouldn't have been able to live to this day and climb to such a position. As a professional "rag" who wipes blood, he has seen too much impermanence in the world! Maybe the person who was smiling and talking to you one moment ago could take your life the next!
They don't even need to do it themselves! Maybe it's just because of the unhappiness in my heart, but that's the situation at the top. They have an identity that is far more important than wealth, they compliment each other, but they secretly stab each other, just to accumulate their capital step by step, climb to the highest level, where is the safest!
It is said that it is so, but no one has ever told their experience to the outside world, and for those who have reached the apex, they are beyond this world, they are not gods, but they are in control of everything!
"Oh! By the way, Lao Zhang, I want to ask you how many supplies we have left! "It's not much, at least all of us can't survive the last ten years ......", Lao Zhang didn't wonder because he had answered the same question before! He still gave a very complete account of the level of indicators of all the existing materials. He is as meticulous as ever, and he has not lost his meticulous thinking and organization skills because of his age!
This is also the reason why he has been vigorously cultivated. First of all, he had to be worth the price, so he could be seen by buyers in the human cultivation center a long time ago. This means of organized trafficking of technological products matured a long time ago!
They thrive in the underground market, and even in the auction seats of the Ming world. For those buyers, there's nothing that can't be done. What I want is a dog who keeps to himself and is loyal. So go for it! It doesn't matter what you spend!
Lao Zhang changed from a small Zhang to Xiao Zhang and then to the current posture, and he did not specifically do the transformation of the life chain level in his genetic programming, which he is very clear about.
The fat man has already eaten here, he showed a lazy and lazy posture to lean back on the back of the chair, and a perfect big meat ball is very standard fit in the "embrace" of the chair!
"How's our research going?" , the fat man came out of such a sentence coldly!
Lao Zhang was obviously prepared, knowing that the fat man might say such a thing! So he said with the mildest smile on his face: "It's been a while since the technological breakthrough!" Don't worry, it won't take a year until the final result! A few wrinkles framed his face into a wonderful mechanical gesture. Everything is so just right!
The fat man's eyebrows were raised twice, and Lao Zhang noticed!
"Okay! Then I'll see! The fat man waved his hand!
Lao Zhang came over, put the plate away, and took it out! When I closed the door, my forehead was already oozing cold sweat at the moment I turned around!
His footsteps froze for a moment, and then walked as always, Xu Xing away!
