Embers Ad Infinitum

In the 49th year of the new calendar, a certain day in February.

Although the Spring Festival is over, the northern part of the Black Marsh Wilderness does not feel as if the winter is about to end.

"This is much more shocking than the snow scene we saw in Wild Grass City." Long Yue blushed close to the car window, looked out, and said sincerely.

At the same time, on the right side of the driver Shang Jianyao, the small speaker with a blue background and a black surface was playing a song:

"Snowflakes fluttering in the north wind

"The world is vast..." (Note 1)

"Can't we play some festive music? It's not long after the New Year." Jiang Baimian, who was in the passenger seat, muttered, "The song you sang at the year-end report performance was very good."

Shang Jianyao sighed solemnly:

"Everyone is outside and is still immersed in an atmosphere of joy and joy, and it is easy to make omissions.

"Although this is just a field exercise, we have to take it seriously, and we can't be too slack, otherwise it won't work."

In order to find the last Buddhist holy place, go to the icefield to explore the city where Shang Jianyao's father disappeared, and to lock the real location of the Eighth Research Institute, Jiang Baimian specially organized such a field training, so as not to feel wild in the New Year. When the team members officially went out to perform tasks, they were unable to enter the state.

Moreover, she also deliberately selected the northern part of the Black Marsh Wilderness, where the climate is close to the edge of the ice sheet, so that the team members can adapt to the difficulties of the ice and snow in advance.

In this way, when the ice sheet encounters extreme weather, the "old tune group" will not be at a loss and panic.

Originally, Jiang Baimian wanted to do this a few years ago, but considering that Long Yuehong and Bai Chen were newly married, it was too inappropriate to forcibly organize field exercises, so after the new year, he officially filed an application and sent it to Xiyu. The minister made a report.

"Huh, what you said, are you the team leader, or am I the team leader?" Jiang Bai gave Shang Jianyao a blank look.

She immediately told Long Yuehong:

"Wait when you get out of the car, don't watch the snowy scenery for too long, or put on your sunglasses in advance.

"I remember telling you about snow blindness before."

"Okay." Long Yuehong has always listened to people's words, took out black sunglasses and put them on the bridge of her nose.

Bai Chen, who still had short hair, looked at the passenger seat:

"Are you looking for a place to rest?"

Now, not only is there no shop in front of the village, but there are no large stones or prominent trees in this area.

"Yeah, it's almost time, it's time to eat." Jiang Baimian explained, "In such a climate, in such an environment, you must ensure that your body is full of energy and has room to deal with accidents and risks."

beep! beep! beep!

Shang Jianyao applauded by clapping his trumpet.

Before Jiang Baimian could respond, the jeep slid sideways for a long time along the snow-covered road, making a stinging sound.

Fortunately, there were no other cars, no ravines or obstacles, and the Jeep finally came to a steady stop.

"Be careful." Jiang Baimian didn't blame Shang Jianyao for being distracted to slap the horn, because even if he didn't slap, he still had to slip.

Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief:

"Didn't we already change the skid tires?"

Since there is snow survival in the plan of field training, they will definitely not forget to bring anti-skid tires and put them on in advance.

"Slip-resistant tires aren't everything." Shang Jianyao laughed, "Just like you are at home, it's impossible for Xiaobai to say anything, there is no variable."

Long Yuehong was at a loss for words, neither should nor should it be.

"We all listen to whoever has reason." Bai Chen helped out.

"Yes, yes." Long Yuehong nodded quickly.

And often Xiaobai has a point... Jiang Baimian secretly laughed, preventing Shang Jianyao from continuing to provoke other people's husband and wife feelings.

She pointed to a piece of snow in front of her and said:

"Just stop there, set up a stove, warm up some cans, and serve some cookies."

Shang Jianyao responded by raising his right hand to wipe his mouth.

The jeep quickly stopped, and several members of the "Old Tunes Group" got busy according to their division of labor:

Long Yuehong checked the status of the solar charging panel on the roof; Shang Jianyao took out the induction cooker and the cans and biscuits he wanted to eat; Bai Chen measured the pollution level around him with an instrument; Jiang Baimian was in charge of vigilance.

"I haven't collected much solar energy." Long Yuehong was the first to make a sound.

He immediately exclaimed:

"It's not enough to recharge the Jeep, it's just a high-performance battery for cooking.

"If we go on like this, our energy will be exhausted sooner or later, so we have to plan the time of the return trip in advance, so as not to run out of electricity and the car is still in the snow."

Jiang Baimian said with a smile:

"That's one of the difficulties with missions to the ice sheet.

"We were lucky in the summer before, but after going deep into the ice sheet, there may also be extreme weather in the summer.

"Don't think it's cold now. In colder conditions, whether the high-performance battery can be used or not has to be said."

Long Yuehong nodded slowly:

"That's why we need such a training to help us adapt to all aspects of the situation."

"Wait for a snowball fight?" Shang Jianyao spoiled the atmosphere of the discussion with a look of great interest.

Long Yuehong shook his head:

"Do not hit."

This guy's snowball fight is neither light nor heavy!

Shang Jianyao sighed regretfully:

"Do I have to wait for you and Xiaobai to have a child, the child grows up, and find him to play with?"

Can't you let Xiaohong and his family go? Jiang Baimian slandered.

However, compared to Shang Jianyao's loss of being unable to play snowball fights, she is more concerned about and more curious about another question:

Xiaobai and Xiaohong have been married for a few months, why hasn't there been any movement?

In "Pangu creatures", once getting married, it means starting to prepare for pregnancy. This is the case in every family, without exception.

Although there are some people who have been married for more than a year before their wives become pregnant, this is after all a minority, and when Long Yuehong and Bai Chen received genetic modification before, they had undergone detailed physical examinations, and there was no problem in that regard.

Jiang Baimian cares about it, but he also knows that there are some things that others can't ask if they don't mention it.

No matter how good the relationship is, there must be a sense of boundaries.

She resisted the urge and urged Shang Jianyao to cook:

"hurry up!"

"Okay!" Shang Jianyao turned his attention back to the induction cooker.

Long Yuehong breathed a sigh of relief.

During this time, his mother Gu Hong has mentioned the matter of "more children and more grandchildren" twice.

He didn't want to go out to practice in the field and have to endure the pressure that was induced.

It didn't take long for the canned braised beef to warm up, and the fragrant smell filled the snow, causing Long Yuehong to swallow her saliva.

Apart from Jiang Baimian, who was in charge of vigilance, the other three members of the "Old Tune Team" squatted there with their lunch boxes and ate.

After taking a bite of the juicy biscuit, Long Yuehong narrowed her eyes with satisfaction:

"I was tired of it before. I haven't eaten it for a few months, but I found it to be delicious."

Shang Jianyao sneered:

"Eat it for ten days and a half months, and you'll be nauseous when you see canned food."

"Aren't you?" Long Yuehong retorted.

Shang Jianyao nodded:

"Yeah yeah."

When the "fist" failed, Long Yuehong could only focus on eating.

After Shang Jianyao devoured it and replaced it with Jiang Baimian, he and Bai Chen were still enjoying canned braised beef.

Jiang Baimian asked casually and casually while eating:

"Xiao Bai, according to the company's regulations, newlyweds are not required to go out to work.

"Why don't you and Xiaohong keep reporting?"

Others didn't apply, and Minister Xi Yu didn't take the initiative to order. She didn't know how to arrange Long Yuehong and Bai Chen for a while, so she could only bring them.

Bai Chen pursed his lips and said:

"Newlyweds don't have to go out to work because they want to prepare for pregnancy with peace of mind and have children earlier.

"And Xiaohong and I don't want to have children so early, we plan to enjoy the two-person world for a few years first.

"This is a bit contrary to the company's policy of encouraging childbirth, but we have made so many contributions, we should be able to delay it for two or three years."

world of two people? This doesn't seem like what you can say, Xiaobai... Jiang Baimian frowned slightly, suspecting that Bai Chen deliberately made such an excuse because he didn't want to leave the team.

And it was copied directly from the old world entertainment materials!

Jiang Baimian then looked at Long Yuehong:

"You think so too?"

She remembered that Xiaohong liked children very much, and hoped to become a back office worker with Xiaobai.

Long Yuehong nodded:

"Yeah, what Xiaobai said is what I thought."

This is not scientific, but it is very realistic... Jiang Baimian forced a smile and said:

"It's not like you used to be."

"Of course not." It was not Long Yuehong who answered her, but Shang Jianyao, who was on guard not far away.

Shang Jianyao smiled:

"Because he and Xiaobai have both been implanted by me with the idea of ​​not having children temporarily and not leaving the group. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

"Ah?" Long Yuehong and Bai Chen looked surprised.

Their first reaction was to say stop joking, but seeing Shang Jianyao's increasingly serious expression, his mind suddenly "hum" and regained his original understanding.

They were indeed implanted with corresponding thinking by Shang Jianyao!

Jiang Baimian looked at Shang Jianyao and asked in a deep voice:

"Didn't you say that you shouldn't use abilities for your teammates in business?"

Shang Jianyao nodded and said in a serious tone:

"I have something to tell you."
