Section VII. Calm Anger

"Eight people you can trust......" Hattith thought for a moment before reading, "Rarity, Ferry, Syri, Rick, Jerry, Jace, Martha, Torrek." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Rick, you go and call Martha and Torrec. ”

"I'll go right away." Rick went to call the other two.

"Do you want a lot of white flour in a specific amount?" Ferry, who was in charge of the living quarters, asked.

"The number of 6,400 steamed buns that can be made, 64 grams per steamed bun, a total of 409.6 kilograms is needed, please prepare 500 kilograms."

"500 kilograms? That's pretty much all of our flour. I'm going to let people prepare. ”

"What is a steamed bun?" Jerry couldn't help but ask.

"......" Zhuge Xun was speechless for a while. Are there any people living in your former country C? ”

"Yes, the people living on the third and fourth floors of the living area are all from the original country C." Ferry said.

"Can you go and call some girls who can make steamed buns?"

"I'll call someone to find Sister Sun, she should know."

"Then there are the eight people whose names are just read, and each of them needs 800ml of blood, which is used to make steamed buns with blood and flour to act as a 'binder'. Originally, it needed human flesh and blood, but the ancestors invented 'steamed buns' and used steamed buns instead when they needed sacrifices, but this time it was too heavy, so they had to use human blood. Zhuge Xun explained.

"I'll let the medical team prepare." Ciri went back to the work area to prepare.

"Is there anything wrong with Grandpa calling me back in a hurry?" Rick was followed by a man and a woman.

"They are?" Zhuge Xun asked Ling.

"The man is Torek, who is in charge of the farm, and he is in charge of all the food and vegetables that need to be grown. We're back early, or I'll take you to his place to see the farms in the Second Civilian District, which are much more spectacular than those in the First District. Then the woman is Martha, the head of the meals, and there is the 'canteen' on the other side of the living quarters, who is responsible for processing and distributing food. The two of them are Celery's children. Ling said.

"You three go to the medical office first, and Ciri is waiting for you there." Hattith said to the three people who came in.

"This is the person Zhuge Xun is looking for, and I have already brought it here." Ferry was followed by more than thirty young girls and a fat woman.

"Are these girls all teenage girls?"

Everyone nodded.

"Do you know how to make steamed buns?"

"I'm the leader of these female workers, you can call me Sister Sun, is there stuffing or not?" The leading fat woman asked Zhuge Xun.

"There is no filling, and there is no need to steam, as long as it is made into a semi-circle of steamed bread shape, but there is a requirement for a single gram of dough. One steamed bun weighs 64 grams. The water will be delivered by the medical team later, and a total of 6,400 pieces will be needed, so please be sure to prepare it by noon tomorrow. Also, if you can, please move to the workspace. Zhuge Xun said to Sister Sun.

"I'm going to call someone to the work area to get ready. Are there any other requirements? Sister Sun asked.

"Go ahead and get ready, and I'll be there later. Also, Hattitz, please move everyone to the ground, there can be no more people in the room above, this is also just in case, and from now on, please close the skylight above, as well as the vents, until this incident has passed. ”

"I'll have someone do it right away." Hatit said.

"Let's go too. I'm going to tell you more about it in the workspace. ”

"Okay, two of you, please come here."

At this point, the ground began to shake, and the sound of rocks rubbing could be heard. There are some small pieces of debris in the mountain that are starting to fall.

"It's already started, we don't have much time, we have to solve it in three days."

Everyone is aware of the gravity of the situation.

It took about half an hour for the ground to stop shaking, and by the time everyone reached the work area, an open space had been cleared, and flour and electronic scales were ready.

Zhuge Xun checked the extent of the clearing and the flour. "Please make sure to ensure the weight of each steamed bun, and I will tell you the specific method when the blood is delivered, and I will ask again at the end, all female workers are 'maidens', right? After the start of the production, no one except these women is allowed to touch the flour, so please be sure to follow it! ”

"Dad, I brought the blood of eight people first, and they need a break before they can come." A woman who looked like a doctor approached Hattith and asked her followers to place a box containing sixteen blood bags on the floor. "Why did Dad suddenly ask for so much blood? 800ML, YOU CAN KILL THEM. ”

"Alina, don't ask so much, send the plasma to Sister Sun." Hatit said.

"The plasma you asked for has already been taken, what are you going to do with all this blood?" Alina asked Sister Sun.

"The plasma has been delivered, please listen to me next." Zhuge Xun said to Sister Sun, who was in the lead. "The water of the noodles is replaced with plasma, the inside of the steamed bread is red, and then there is a layer of white flour skin on the outside, the weight of the completed single steamed bread is 64 grams, a total of 6,400 are needed, is there a problem with the time limit until noon tomorrow at the latest?"

"Roughly understood, can we try to make one first?" Sister Sun glanced at the time, it was six o'clock in the afternoon.

"Yes."

"Then let's try to make one." Sister Sun asked the experienced female workers to start trying to make the first one, and she couldn't touch the flour herself, so she supervised on the side.

"Okay." After explaining to Sister Sun, Zhuge Xun returned to Hatit and Ling's side. "Hattitt, do you have any blank paper? I didn't bring that much rune paper. ”

"Is it okay to just have a blank sheet of paper?" Hattith asked.

"Hmm." There are still a dozen or so left in the pocket, but all of them have a specific purpose.

"I have it in my office." Hatit told his men to take it.

"Then I'll go back to the infirmary." Alina and the people she brought with her back to the hospital on the other side of the living quarters.

"Who is she?" Zhuge Xun glanced at the woman who left.

"She's my second daughter, Alina, and she's in charge of medical care." Hattith explained.

Soon, his subordinates brought over a thick stack of white paper and handed it to Zhuge Xun.

After receiving the white paper, Zhuge Xun sat on the ground and began to fold the paper.

"Need we help you?" Ling asked with Hartitt.

"That, you help me fold each piece of paper in half twice, and finally fold it into such a big one, be careful not to get your own blood, others can also help, after folding, cut it and put it aside, I need a total of 6400 sheets, a base paper can produce four small papers, help divide the work, how many people, the number is best to be accurate at one time, don't let me check the number again." Zhuge Xun showed how he had folded, and the size was exactly the size of his palm.

"Then we're all here to help."

"Please see if it's what you need it to be." Sister Sun, who was in charge of making steamed buns, came over to invite Zhuge Xun.

Zhuge Xun put a steamed bun on the electronic scale, showing the weight of 64 grams, and then broke it open, and the inside was also the red heart he requested, wrapped in a thin layer of skin. "That's it, please do the same for 6,400 by tomorrow."

"Don't worry, leave it to us. The girls are working! After Sister Sun was recognized, she began her formal work.

"Eat less." Martha's cafeteria brought dinner to everyone.

"Is your body alright?" HATTITH ASKED, AFTER ALL, IT WAS THE ONE WHO HAD JUST FINISHED DRAWING 800ML OF BLOOD.

"I'm still a little dizzy, you haven't eaten for a day, I asked the cafeteria to make something for you, let's eat a little first." Martha said.

Hattith looked up at the clock and it was nine thirty p.m.

"Miss Martha and the other seven people who have already had their blood drawn, please get a good night's sleep, and you will need your mental strength tomorrow." Zhuge Xun said to Martha.

"Well, I'll go tell a couple of other people. You should also take care of your rest. ”

But no one slept on this side of the work area that night. The female workers began to step up their efforts to make steamed buns, and a group of people over there were tearing paper, and everyone's hearts were heavy, which was a race against time.

Zhuge Xun tore the paper cut by everyone into the shape of a human being, and for each tear one, he used a brush to write the word 'person' in cinnabar on the torso of the paper figure, and then put it aside.

It was already 11 a.m. the next day. Because I explained it in advance, I didn't open the window at the usual time. ’

"This is the 6,400 steamed buns you want, and each one of them has been weighed. Is there anything else we need to do? Sister Sun said to Zhuge Xun on the female worker's side.

Zhuge Xun glanced at the white steamed buns piled up into a hill on the side and said to Sister Sun, "Thank you, you can let those female workers rest." ”

At this time, the eight people who had rested also came over one after another, and the paper figures on Zhuge Xun's side were also prepared.

"And then what are we going to do?" Leary asked.

"Wait a minute, I'll tell you."

"Would you like to take a nap?" Ling asked with concern, only Zhuge Xun hadn't slept all night.

Zhuge Xun shook his head, the ground has been shaking since last night, which shows that the limit has been reached, and now no program can be wrong.

I looked at the 6,400 steamed buns and small paper figures that were prepared, as well as the eight people selected earlier.

"Eight people, please come to my side." Zhuge Xun beckoned eight people to stand beside him. "Rary, Ferry, Syri, and Rick stand in the four corners of the tentative, tentatively east, south, west, and north quadrives, and the four corners outside the station of Jerry, Jace, Martha, and Torrek are tentatively northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest. Then the array will automatically select people from each direction, and the eight of you will not be allowed to leave where you are standing during that time of the 'selection'. ”

"Got it." Eight people stood in the position designated by Zhuge Xun.

Zhuge Xun rearranged his clothes, and then came to the center of the eight people. After standing, he took out the fan he was carrying, put the fan across his hand with his hands together, and began to chant a mantra in his mouth, the wind gradually surrounded Zhuge Xun, and gradually filled the entire central square, and the strong wind made people unable to open their eyes.

At the feet of Zhuge Xun and the eight people, an eight-pointed star array that was different from the last time appeared, and then in the array, four huge four-way gods came from Zhuge Xun's side, and except for Ling, everyone stared at the impossible scene with wide eyes.

Although the eight people standing in the formation were shocked by the huge monster in front of them, because Zhuge Xun said that they were not allowed to leave, the eight people could only stand in place, only hoping that the four huge monsters would not hurt themselves.

The array under his feet kept turning, Zhuge Xun was still chanting the incantation, and after a long time, the four huge Shishen gods began to act, standing behind Leary, Ferry, Xirui, and Rick, and the eight corners of the array appeared in ancient Chinese traditional characters, each corner corresponds to a person. When the rotation of the array stopped, Zhuge Xun also stopped chanting the incantation, took out the rune paper from his pocket, wrote the eight directions on the paper with a pen, and then pointed with his hand, the rune paper fell into the hands of eight people, Zhuge Xun brushed the fan in his hand and made a' Rise's action, I saw that all the small paper figures who had written the words earlier rose into the air, and after a pause in the air, they flew into the steamed buns with white faces and red hearts, each steamed bun corresponded to a paper man, and after the last paper man flew into the steamed buns, Zhuge Xun closed the fan and the surrounding wind stopped.

"The eight of you have got your own position, next, Hattith, please send your flying machine to send the eight people to his own position, and throw the steamed buns into the direction, I can't leave this formation for the time being." Zhuge Xun said to Hatit.

"Flying machines? Well, I can't care so much about it now. I asked the aircraft to start right away. But where is the specific direction? "There's no time to ask why Zhuge Xun knows about the flying machine now.

At this time, the mountain began to shake again, this time more intensely, and the river on one side was already boiling and began to spew out a column of water that turned flowers.

"The talisman paper in their hands will take them to their destination. The eight of you listen, the rune paper in your hand will guide you to the place, after arriving at the place, the rune paper will stop on the ground, please leave the rune paper one meter away, there will be a hole in the ground, please don't let people approach, because it will be sucked in, 800 sacrifices in each direction, that is, 800 steamed buns, when the hole is opened, the steamed bread will be automatically thrown inside, and finally the hole will be closed again, the hole is sealed is the direction rune paper, when the hole is sealed, you can come back, remember, During this time, no one is allowed to approach the rune paper. Is there a problem? ”

"Nope." Eight people replied.

"The aircraft is ready to take off at any time."

Zhuge Xun once again commanded the pile of steamed buns with a fan to automatically divide the quantity, and then followed the eight people into the apron at the top of the reserve area. Moments later, there was a sound of a 'window opening' from the other side of the reserve, and eight aircraft flew in eight different directions.

Zhuge Xun sat cross-legged in the middle of the array, and the four huge gods were nowhere to be seen.

"Excuse me, can this stop the earthquake?" Hattith asked.

"Yes, 6,400 steamed buns represent 6,400 people, using their flesh and blood to fill the cracks in the earth, and the eight azimuth runes taken by the eight people are buried in the ground to form an eight-pointed star array under the entire second civilian area, which can contain the earth so that it will not appear cracks again."

"Then wait for them to come back now." Hatit let out a long breath.

Zhuge Xun's mind kept flashing various things to support this formation buried under the second civilian area.

"Ahh A shrill cry drew everyone's attention.

"Ah, I'm sorry, because I saw that thing under his feet was missing a corner......" A female worker pointed to the array at Zhuge Xun's feet.

When everyone looked over, it turned out to be an eight-horned array, missing the horn due east. And Zhuge Xun, who was sitting in the middle of the array, was sealing his hands, looking very hard, and his face was covered with sweat.

"Kaoru? Cauterize? Zhuge Xun? Ling called out tentatively twice, but did not get a response from Zhuge Xun.

"Ah, another corner missing!" This time it's the corner due south that is missing.

"Kaoru, how are you?" Ling saw that Zhuge Xun in the formation was in a very bad situation, but he didn't dare to enter the formation rashly.

The eight-pointed star array kept disappearing with horns, and it wasn't until the last horn disappeared that Zhuge Xun slowly opened his eyes and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his clothes.

"Ling brought the metasequoia I brought to help me get to the edge of the array." Zhuge Xun said to Ling.

"I'll pick it up right away." Ling remembers putting it at Kara's.

"No, I asked Kara to bring the tree you brought earlier." Hattitz said to Ling.

"Kaoru, how do you use it?" Ling leans on the tree.

Zhuge Xun in the formation stood up and made a 'up' gesture with a fan, so that the tree in Ling's hand flew towards him, landed steadily in front of him, and then blew a long whistle, after the sound, it seemed that something fell on Zhuge Xun's hand.

"I'm sorry, I need your spirit to help it take root." Zhuge Xun said to the tree spirit that had been placed on the 'Holy Sandalwood' earlier. "And with this formation, you can move freely within the formation."

The tree spirit nodded at Zhuge Xun.

Everyone saw that the small tree was deeply rooted in the place where Zhuge Xun was sitting. The ground was originally paved with stones, and it was very hard, but the small tree easily penetrated half a meter into the ground.

Zhuge Xun wrote a 'Ding' talisman and pasted it on the body of the tree.

At this moment, the sound of a flying machine was heard from the other side of the reserve. After a while, the eight people who had gone out earlier came here from the reserve area.

"How?" Hattith asked.

"We've all done it according to the method Zhuge Xun said." Leary replied. Several other people also said that they did what Zhuge Xun said.

"Then, Zhuge Xun, they ......," Hatit looked back and asked Zhuge Xun, who had already come to them.

"The array has been set up, and it's all right. Because if one of them doesn't finish, the array won't disappear. You can now test with the instruments of the reserve area, and the earthquake has subsided. ”

"Great!" Hearing Zhuge Xun's answer, everyone present cheered.

"But since there is an earthquake on my side, the fifth civilian area that is relatively close to me should also be affected to some extent." Hatit said to Ling.

"Well, I'll go to the Fifth District after I leave you." Ling said. If the Fifth District is really affected by the earthquake here, it will be very bad.

"That's for the best."

"Next, there are some things I want to explain to you." Zhuge Xun said.

"Please."

"The array you saw just now is the formation I buried under the second civilian area, which is used to stabilize the earth that has been 'glued', and the azimuth rune paper that the eight of them took away is the main pillar that makes up the array, and it also represents the eight of them. In other words, the second civilian area is now supported by your eight 'human pillars', so please protect your body, if more than three of you have an accident, this array will be automatically lifted, and the earthquake will still happen, but it will not be as strong as this time. So in the days to come, you will have to think about the threat of natural disasters......"

"What about normal death?" Ferry asked.

"If one of you is unfortunate enough to reach the limit, the hole in his direction will be opened again, so please designate your successor in advance, it must be a blood relative, and at the same time transfuse 800ML of blood to the successor, and then throw the body of the previous one into the cracked hole, and drip the blood of the successor at the mouth of the resealed hole as a formal inheritance ceremony. But looking at the current physical condition of the eight of you, you can live for at least 90 years or more.

In addition, the tree I just planted is in the middle of the formation, please don't destroy it, don't water it, don't take care of it, just build a circular fence one meter away from it to prevent people from approaching. ”

"We'll do what you say. And we want to thank you again for your help, without you, more than 50,000 of us, the consequences are unimaginable, please accept our thanks. Led by Hadith, everyone bowed deeply to Zhuge Xun and Ling.

"Just remember what I said. You protect this forest, and this forest protects you. Zhuge Xun replied.

"I asked you to prepare a place to rest, especially Zhuge Xun hasn't rested for two days." Hatit said.

"No, if nothing else, we're going back." Ling Wan refused. Knowing that Zhuge Xun has consumed too much strength this time, he should want to go back to the main hall as soon as possible to rest, since the affairs of the second civilian area have been resolved, there is no need to stay here, and there is also a sher. Sebas's things to figure out.

"But it's all the time now." Hattith glanced at the time, and it was already 10:40 p.m.

"Hatit, thank you for the matter of Sileclo, and I hope that in the future, the second civilian area will continue as always."

"Ling, what do you say? I'll have you get a room prepared over there in the living quarters. ”

"Don't bother, I'll take Zhuge Xun back. You still have a lot to work out, like Jerry's ranch and Jace's rat army need to be put in order, if you need my help, call me. Ling saw Zhuge Xun's tiredness and didn't want to stay any longer.

"Alright then, Rick, you go and get ready to send the two of you out of the mountain with a flying machine.

"Well, I'll go."

"No need. We take a shortcut. Ling used the key to open the door of time beside her, and walked in with Zhuge Xun.

"Ahh They! Everyone looked at the two of them who disappeared into thin air in amazement.

"Remember, you didn't see anything." Hatit said to the crowd
