"What's so hot..." Tangning poured the tomato ball soup in the pot into a basin, "When it first opened, there was no one there, but Company Commander He brought the brothers from the reconnaissance brigade to the show, and it gradually became popular. Some guests."

Wu Chen said: "To tell you the truth, after looking at the table set up by candy, I have the illusion that joining the army is for nothing - with our skills, we can go out once a week, at least big meat is enough."

"Yeah." Ji Jixiao complained at the right time: "Just now I don't know who chose a scourge that wild hunters would walk around when they see it. It's still big enough, and I almost didn't become a big meat..."

Tangning greeted everyone to eat, "The purpose of this game hall actually has the same meaning. It can spread some knowledge about survival in the wilderness."

"It's one thing for the joint council to encourage everyone to fight in the wilderness, but it's another thing to actually have that ability."

After finishing speaking, he raised the wine bottle: "Don't talk so much, the rainy season offensive has been completed, and I will report back to the Academy of Sciences as soon as the vacation is over. These days, thank you for taking care of me!"

"You're welcome!" Wu Chen and the others bumped into Tang Ning, "If Brother Tang is a member of our military, a team leader won't be able to escape. It's because we have learned a lot from Brother Tang!"

"That's right! Brother Tang, I respect you!" Ji Jixiao also touched Tangning.

The army often faced death directly, and the most important thing was ability. Although Ji Jixiao was ranked first in the Neptune game hall, that was because Tangning didn't practice there much anymore.

When it comes to actual combat, Tangning is still better, especially when it comes to dealing with mutants and mutant beasts, the other three team members are far behind.

Everyone enjoyed the meal. After seeing off a few teammates, Tangning went to her lounge on the third floor.

The Beidou game hall is actually managed by Xiaozhi, and it is running very well. Now it has become the place where the wild hunters go online for the first time after returning to the deserted town.

Because you can experience all kinds of new supernatural weapons here, it has been well received.

Gradually, the exchange forum here has developed into a trading place for the exchange of supernatural materials and commissioned weapons.

After a few visits, everyone tasted the sweetness. Miss Red Bird simply transferred her studio here, and unscrupulously left it to the game hall as an escrow.

After getting along with each other, Tangning, Xiaozhi, and Red Bird became closer. Tangning finally sent Zijiao's materials and received a package from Miss Sister today.

The package was opened, and inside was a set of well-made armor.

After putting on the armor, Tangning took a bone knife from the shelf on the wall and practiced in her own training room on the third floor.

After years of training, actual combat, and Xiao Zhi's analysis and calculations, Tangning's saber techniques have now changed from simple to complex, and then from ordinary to simple. There are nine saber shapes and thirteen movements.

The purpose of the battle is even simpler. Each attack and retreat must be preempted or corrected to the center line. Each movement must be the shortest. Every time, try to ensure that the tip of the knife touches the target part ten centimeters below to achieve the greatest chopping effect.

The rest is precision and flexibility. Every attack strives to meet the requirements, and when the requirements are not met, try to get as close as possible.

It is easy to say, but it is difficult to apply it in practice.

It involves rhythm, breathing, walking, movement, observation, judgment, temptation, temptation, advance and retreat, etc. A small wrong step in any place may lead to irreversible results.

Although there have been long-term exercises in the ecological cabin, there are still subtle differences between the real battle environment and the virtual environment.

The ordinary bone knife in Tang Ning's hand now has the same size, length, center of gravity, and weight as the supernatural sword.

After the armor was delivered, Tangning put it on immediately during practice.

Including shoes, they will always be those models, and helmets, when they are in the field, they will always use that modified model.

The purpose of all this is for three words - proficiency.

In addition to repeating the nine types and thirteen knives, quickly adapting to various changes is another aspect of Tangning's strict requirements on herself.

When she was almost adjusted, Tangning let out a low voice, "Xiaozhi!"

In the personal window, a small dot appeared in the center of Tangning's field of vision, and then the dot began to shoot small balls towards Tangning.

During the flight, the ball became the size of a ping pong ball, and there were up, down, and around. Tangning's task was to dodge it flexibly, or smash one of them into the air.

After Tangning got used to it, countless rolling logs from far and near appeared in her field of vision. Now Tangning not only had to chop the balls, but also took care of her footsteps to avoid them.

This method was also invented by Xiaozhi. What can be done in the virtual cabin is always practice, and the actual combat that is about life and death will always happen in reality. Tangning must transfer the skills learned to reality.

After practicing for over an hour, Tangning finally stopped, feeling very satisfied with the armor made by Red Bird.

It is close-fitting, efficient, and smart. It has left me a few streets away from the random patchwork I used to make.

As for the remaining materials, Tangning no longer cared about what the young lady would use to make them.

This set of armor is already worth it.

After the mission of the rainy season offensive was completed, Tangning got a few days off. He decided to spend time with Xiaozhi. In fact, he wanted to hide and enjoy himself in the space.

During this time, I was really busy and tired.

Xiaozhi's understanding of Shudu's virtual city is far better than Tangning's, and he became Tangning's tour guide. In addition to taking Tangning on a tour, the father and son also spent a lot of time researching the "world" that Xiaozhi found in the virtual city. baby".

Xiaozhi is an artificial intelligence, which is different from real children. His interest is research and learning.

Study and learn how to design supernatural weapons, study and learn how to manage the Beidou game hall, study and learn how to extract valuable intelligence from massive amounts of ordinary information...

Inheriting his father's career, primitive network archaeology has also become Xiaozhi's research direction.

No, Xiaozhi didn't know where to find a storybook, he must have read it, but he still wanted Tangning to tell him.

Tangning carried Xiao Zhi onto her lap and opened the book.

"...when the building of the ark was completed, the great flood began, and when Noah was six hundred years old, on the seventeenth day of the second month, the fountains of the great deep were opened, and the windows of heaven were opened. Forty days and nights it fell It's raining heavily on the ground..."

"...After 220 days, the Ark stopped near Mount Ararat, and the flood waters began to recede..."

"...After another forty days, the top of Mount Ararat was exposed. At this time, Noah released a crow, but it did not find any land where it could live..."

"... Seven days later Noah sent out the dove again, and this time it immediately brought back the olive branch, and Noah knew that the flood was gone."

"After waiting another seven days, Noah released the dove for the last time, and this time it never returned to the ark."

"Noah's family and all kinds of animals walked out of the ark."

"After leaving the ark, Noah offered a sacrifice to God. Jehovah smelled the aroma of the sacrifice, and decided not to destroy the world with floods, and made a rainbow in the sky as a guarantee."

"Dad, what's the point of this story?"

"Meaning? Probably hope and faith."

"Isn't it an escape?"

"Uh... If you haven't given up hope, it can't be called evasion, right? What do you mean Xiaozhi?"

"Well, what Dad said makes sense. Giving up hope, whether it's a drunken dream or a life of idling, is actually an escape. If you don't give up hope, it can't be counted as an escape. What about faith?"

"Faith is to firmly maintain hope. This is what Dad understands."

"Isn't this stubborn?"

"Father thinks that when hope is unrealizable, faith replaces hope and becomes what supports human beings to live. Speaking of it, it can be regarded as a kind of stubbornness."

"So, Xiaozhi is Dad's belief, something that replaced Hope a few years ago?"

"Hahaha..." Tangning was amused by Xiaozhi, "Faith is something deep in the human heart that is nurtured and grown by hope."

"This is somewhat different from Xiaozhi's company."

"Dad doesn't have any beliefs, but Dad has Xiaozhi. From this perspective, Xiaozhi's words are not wrong."

"Because Xiaozhi is not my father's belief, but it has replaced belief and has become the most important thing in my father's life."

Xiaozhi had a pure smile on his face, very happy with Tangning's explanation.

The homes in the virtual space are always beautiful, comfortable and sunny.Tangning was lying on the recliner, and Xiaozhi lay on Tangning's stomach, enjoying the pleasant breeze by the lake.

"Dad, Xiaozhi seems to have seen the story about Noah just now."

"Really? That story is a long, long, long story."

"In the first few decades of Datong, mankind finally solved the problem of religious belief. Faith has become an individual's pursuit of one's own spiritual level, and lost the compulsion imposed on the individual by the outside world."

"Dad, do you think the painting of grandma before she died is Noah's Ark?"

"Huh?" Tangning sat up straight all of a sudden, "You said that..."

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Tangning rushed into the study with Xiao Zhi in her arms, and searched the bookshelves.

Finally, they found a photo album and opened it. There was a photo in the photo album, it was Tang Ning when she was a child, showing a clumsy painting in her hand.

Xiaozhi stretched out his finger and clicked on the photo, and the picture moved.

"Mommy mommy……"

"Xiao Ning?"

"Look, Mom, I drew this! There are Dad, you, me, and little glutinous rice balls!"

A little black and white puppy heard someone call its name, and ran out from nowhere, wagging its tail, and wagging the fur slippers under Tangning's feet with its teeth.

"This is Noah's Ark! At the end of the world, our whole family can go on it and escape the catastrophe!"

"Well, it's a good painting, and I haven't even forgotten the glutinous rice balls. Old Tang, I didn't realize that Xiao Ning is such a responsible person..."

"It's true, toys and books are thrown everywhere all day long..." The father's voice sounded behind the video: "Then the life of Tangyuan from now on will be taken care of by you kid!"

……

……

Things are different, Tangning looked at the video clips in the photo album that were turned into photos again, and finally understood what was the picture carved on the concrete pillar at the moment when her mother was dying.

"Dad! The safe password synchronization is approaching!" Xiaozhi's voice interrupted Tangning's thoughts.

"what?"

"Password! The code to Grandma's safe! That's the video! Sync done, it's open!"
