Embers Ad Infinitum

Jiang Baimian chuckled secretly and helped "explain":

"He's a ghost enthusiast and has been proving that ghosts really do exist."

The woman who seemed to be the hotel proprietress looked back and forth between the four of them several times, then breathed out and said:

"I didn't expect such people to exist."

"The world is so big that there are many wonders." Jiang Baimian replied sincerely.

Even she, who claims to be a well-informed person, often feels that she is a frog in the well, especially Shang Jianyao, who often plays tricks that she could not imagine beforehand.

Before the woman in the gorgeous dress could speak, Jiang Baimian asked first:

"Are you Ms. Aino?"

Several smugglers in Hongshiji mentioned that the proprietress of the "Youmeng" hotel is called Aino.

This is not her real name, it is the name she chose after coming to Tarnan. It can be treated as a gray earth name, and it can also be seamlessly connected with the name of the Red River. It is similar to "Odik".

As for who this lady was and what she did before she came to Tarnan, no one knows, it's like a mystery.

"Yes." The charming woman loosened her hair from her fingers.

She then smiled:

"It seems that you were introduced by an acquaintance."

"Hongshiji came here." Jiang Baimian didn't hide anything.

Aino was a little surprised:

"Ha, you can still make friends with those people who often hide and cannot be found, and get information about Tarnan?"

"We just happened to encounter the invasion of fishmen and mountain monsters, and we fought side by side with them for a while." Jiang Baimian told the complete truth.

But that doesn’t quite capture their experience at Redstone.

Ainuo just sighed casually without any intention of delving into it, so he asked instead:

"How many rooms do you want?"

"Any recommendations?" Jiang Baimian asked without answering.

Ainuo looked Jiang Baimian up and down and said with a smile:

"You really have a smart look on your face.

“Our ‘Youmeng’ hotel is different from other hotels because I specially modified the layout of the rooms for the ruin hunter team and the caravans of various factions.

"As a team like you, you definitely don't want to be divided into several rooms. This will prevent you from communicating and meeting in time in case of an accident. But if you are all crammed into a room with four beds, you will not be able to live in it. It’s not very comfortable, and it doesn’t seem to be fundamentally different from the wild.”

He was at least a dozen years older than me, yet he actually joked in the tone of an elder... Jiang Baimian slandered and made his attitude clear:

"We don't mind this aspect, just two adjacent rooms."

Ainuo's eyes turned and said:

“But when there are good choices, who would choose the bad ones?

"I recommend two room types: one is two adjacent twin rooms with a door directly connected in the middle to facilitate your coming and going, and the other is a suite, which is similar to the three bedrooms and one living room in the old world. It can just fit the four of you. , the environment is nice and private.”

"What's the price?" Jiang Baimian asked.

To be honest, she was a little moved. Just like Aino said, when there is a good choice, who would choose the bad one?

Moreover, she glanced at it and found that Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong both nodded slightly, indicating that they had chosen it.

Our "Old Adjustment Team" is not short of supplies now!

——They just got a large number of portable computers from Shifang Trading Co., Ltd. Means.

As for Bai Chen, he had lived in conditions that were unimaginable to Long Yuehong and others, so he didn't care too much about this aspect.

Of course, with a good environment, she will also feel happy and satisfied.

There were shallow dimples on Aino’s cheeks:

"It depends on what supplies you pay for. The least valuable items in Tarnan are electronic products, mechanical products, cans, biscuits, and energy bars."

"We only have electronic products, a lot of portable computers." Jiang Baimian knew Tarnan's situation and was not surprised at all.

"What model?" Aino asked casually.

The four members of the "Old Tune Group" fell silent.

They really don't understand how the portable computers produced by "Mechanical Paradise" are classified and what models they have.

Immediately afterwards, Shang Jianyao turned around and ran outside the hotel.

Soon, he came back with two black portable computers.

"G-35? This is the latest model. You just arrived in Tarnan. How did you get it? Normally, even the 'Linhai Alliance' has to have a chance to see it in spring, right?" Aino looked down. Looking at the old computer I used for registration, I felt a little envious.

Jiang Baimian explained simply:

"We rescued a caravan on the way. They just left Tarnan and returned to the Seaside Alliance."

"Ha, Means and the others?" Aino laughed after receiving a positive nod, "I told them that they shouldn't leave in the winter, something would happen, but they didn't listen, haha, if they didn't listen to the old man's words, they would suffer a lot. !”

Because Means and the others seemed to have nothing to do, Aino showed off his schadenfreude to the fullest.

She likes to act old...or is she actually older than she looks? Some thoughts flashed through Jiang Baimian's mind, but they lacked enough details to confirm.

With such an incident, Aino seemed to be much closer to them and said directly:

"Then I'll give you a suite, two for seven days."

Two stations in seven days? Just take one and go to places like the First City and Weed City, where it can live for more than a month... Jiang Baimian knew that portable computers were quite popular among big forces, especially those produced by "Machine Paradise".

This is because there is a serious lack of production capacity in this area, and in many fields, a computer can play a very important role.

Means and Shifang Trading Company were able to obtain such a large batch of the latest portable computers from Tarnan, which shows the depth of their relationship.

After thinking about it for a moment, and thinking that it was a windfall anyway, Jiang Baimian responded in the affirmative:

"good."

After getting the black room card with a delicate rose printed on it, the four members of the "Old Tune Team" took the elevator to the second floor.

Many hotels on the dusty land have some of the same rules. For example, the lower the floor, the more expensive the room. This makes it easier for guests to jump out of the window and escape in the event of an attack or accident.

This is a change brought about by widespread demand.

The room of the "Old Tune Group" is in "221", the innermost part of the corridor. After opening the door, there is first a living room with sofas, coffee tables, tables, chairs, and cabinets. There are four doors in the living room, leading to three bedrooms and Bathroom, toilet.

This can't be said to be very luxurious, but for Jiang Baimian, Long Yuehong and others who have been away from "Pangu Creatures" for a long time and have never lived in a good place, it is simply satisfying both physically and mentally.

"I'll sleep in the living room!" Shang Jianyao volunteered.

Although he didn't know why he wanted to sleep in the living room, Jiang Baimian decided that he couldn't do what he wanted to avoid causing any trouble:

"I'm the team leader and I sleep in the living room."

She quickly added:

"I have to watch you, especially you. I can't let you get up in the middle of the night and scare Xiao Hong."

Hearing the following words, Shang Jianyao's eyes lit up, as if he was saying, "Why didn't I expect that I could do such a thing?"

While Long Yuehong shivered inexplicably, Jiang Baimian became more determined to sleep in the living room.

After assigning rooms with the authority of the team leader, they washed their faces and hands and had a simple dinner.

After cleaning himself up, Jiang Baimian looked around and said with a smile:

"There is a training subject tonight."

"Ah?" Long Yuehong felt tired and wanted to go to bed early.

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

“This training subject is called ‘solo action’.

“Although I have been emphasizing cooperation and teamwork, things are unpredictable and everyone will inevitably be alone. If there is no corresponding experience accumulation, we may not be able to solve the difficulties encountered by then.

"Tonight, we will go out separately to collect information in Tarnan."

After speaking, Jiang Baimian turned his wrist and looked at the electronic watch:

"It's eight-thirty now. Return to the room at ten."

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao responded excitedly.

Do you really want this guy to act alone? Isn't this not good? The first thing Long Yuehong worried about was not herself, but Shang Jianyao, who had lost his restraint.

He was worried about the people of Tarnan.

Without giving Long Yuehong a chance to speak, Jiang Baimian pointed at him and said:

"Xiao Hong, you go out first."

"Okay." Long Yuehong didn't suddenly realize something until she walked out of the "Youmeng" hotel and stood in a quite secluded street with the cold wind and deep night:

I'm the only one left...

This is a strange city, surrounded by strange people.

He glanced left and right out of habit, but couldn't find a figure that made him feel at ease.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

Breathe, breathe... Long Yuehong took a few deep breaths, initially calming down the timidity and uneasiness in her heart.

Then, he decided to plan what he was going to do first.

Once the purpose is clear, the mind will not be so panicked.

At this moment, a figure passed him and went straight to the busiest street.

Long Yuehong raised her head and only had time to see Shang Jianyao's back turning to the right.

"..." He was worried about the people of Tarnan again.

It took several seconds for Long Yuehong to recover her thoughts and consider her own problem:

"The team leader said he wanted to collect information... So what kind of information should be collected?

"Our purpose is to meet the 'Master Brain', no, the 'Source Brain', and find clues to the destruction of the old world. If it doesn't agree to see us, then we have to come up with something that can impress it.

"Well, take a walk on the street, find older local townspeople, and learn from their mouths what things have a strong demand in 'Mechanical Paradise'."

With direction, Long Yuehong has indeed settled down a lot.

So, he plucked up the courage and walked towards the intersection where Shang Jianyao disappeared.

After turning right, he walked straight for another two to three hundred meters, and the sounds he heard in his ears became more and more loud.

Finally, the lively street appeared in front of him, with many pedestrians coming and going, including Red River people, Gray Earth people, and many branches of these two races.

Long Yuehong stared at it for a while, took a breath, and silently encouraged herself:

"no problem……"

Then, he stepped into the street ahead.

During this process, he subconsciously touched the "Ice Moss" pistol on the armed belt at his waist.
