The process of waiting for a reply is long and difficult, but when another worrying thing happens in front of you, all these emotions will turn into anxiety.
Yan Yueming listened to "Today's Qi" while waiting for a reply from the other end of the sand table. Anchor Xu's style is different from that of Su Huizhi and Xu Ling. His voice sounds cold and restrained. He is also a high-altitude flower. He usually lives alone and is very low-key.
Today’s first rule:
Please hold an umbrella under the moonlight.
As the fluctuation moment ends, the scope of the moon's influence has indeed expanded. Originally it could only affect Li Zheng alone, but now, even if Yan Yueming is standing under the moon, she can feel a faint chill on the back of her neck.
This kind of coolness is not fatal, and it is not even as good as an ordinary foul. If you are careless, you may just think that it is a cool breeze blowing behind your back, and you will not take it to heart.
But the moon is always there.
It will illuminate the entire night.
In addition, the entrance and exit of the gap in No. 14 has also become larger. With the loquat tree in the courtyard as the center, it extends outward by about one meter.
The following rules in "Today's Aura" are also more or less related to the moon.
Article 2: Please do not take photos at the moon or its reflection, and do not take the moon home.
Article 3: Please don’t pick the flowers in the mirror, they won’t bloom in the mirror.
Article 4: From 0:00 to 6:00 in the morning, all vehicles are prohibited from turning right. If you need navigation, please download the Gas Phase Map, a dedicated navigation APP for the Bureau of Gas Phase.
Article 5: Please do not engage in a series of superstitious activities with the nature of "foreknowledge" and "commitment" including divination and fortune telling. If there is any violation, please go to the rescue station within 24 hours and the staff will assist in the name change procedures. .
Article 6: The Civil Affairs Bureau has suspended marriage registration today, and divorce will not be affected. Please inform the general public.
Article 7:…
If Yan Yueming wasn't surprised when he saw the first few items, he was a bit stunned when he saw the fifth one. He was fired for walking into the company with his left foot first, but he didn't expect that he would have to change his name now.
What was even more surprising was yet to come. Just a quarter of an hour after midnight, he received a message from the conjurer Ma Renai.
No. 37 Ma Renai: I plan to change my name, my friend.
Come on Xiao Ming:? ? ?
Come on Xiao Ming: Why?
Come on Xiao Ming: It’s only been a quarter of an hour!
No. 37 Ma Renai: At midnight, I happened to do a divination for myself, and the divination showed "big bad luck", and then I made a mistake. I turned on my phone and saw the gas phase forecast, and I had to sigh that time is also a fate [Like.jpg 】
Come on Xiao Ming: Aren’t you a magician? Why do you also do fortune-telling part-time?
No. 37 Ma Renai: The world of metaphysics is one family.
Come on Xiao Ming: ...Okay.
In fact, Yan Yueming has forgotten his original name. He only remembers that he took the alias "Ma Renai" at Trouble Unlimited Company. Now he wants to change his name again, which shows that he really has no fate with his real name.
With his interruption, Yan Yueming's anxiety eased a lot.
At this time, the sand table finally had feedback.
The white sand started to flow again. Yan Yueming waited with bated breath, fearing that her breath would blow the sand away.
run. When the characters were formed, he looked at the time again. It was almost half past twelve, which proved that the time for the other party to send messages was not limited to fluctuating moments.
Dong Xiaoyin personally guarded the scene and took a pen and paper to record the characters. At the beginning, she recorded each stroke carefully, fearing that if she made a mistake or omitted a stroke, there would be problems in transmitting information. But as she continued to write, she wrote faster and faster, and the more she wrote, the weirder her expression became.
"Why... there are so many."
Yan Yueming couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Is this person writing a composition?"
Dong Xiaoyin wrote furiously while complaining, because the previous characters quickly disappeared and new ones appeared. If it was too slow, he would not be able to remember it.
After she finally recorded all the characters and filled up a whole piece of paper, the sand table finally stopped updating. Yan Yueming handed her a glass of water and asked, "What do these characters mean?"
Dong Xiaoyin did not answer, but looked at the characters with an increasingly weird expression.
Yan Yueming became nervous, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"Your nickname is...Little Yanzi?"
"..."
how do you know!
Yan Yueming was shocked, stunned, and a little embarrassed after realizing it. He swore that this name had never been called by anyone since his parents died, and that he only called it this name because of some trivial bad taste as a new parent. The only thing they are sensible about is that they never call him by this name in front of outsiders, so the old neighbors in Puxiazi Lane call him Xiao Ming. The only one who still knows this name is——
"Aunt!" Yan Yueming looked at Dong Xiaoyin in surprise and said, "Only my aunt knows this title, so if the person on the other end of the communication is not my aunt, or someone she knows or even trusts, it would be impossible to tell this. other side."
Dong Xiao
She lowered her voice to tease him, cleared her throat, looked slightly serious, and said: "From the information behind, this person is not your aunt, he is a person your aunt met in Hu Di, his name is——Q· The invincible thunderbolt of the universe·Colorful DJ·Zonghenghudi·The only master of Qiuta·Jiu Mi Jiu Mi·His Majesty the Miniature National Master.”
"Huh?" Yan Yueming doubted his ears and showed an almost dull expression.
"That's right, that's what the message came over. Although my translation may have some imperfections, overall it should be pretty much the same." Dong Xiaoyin folded his arms and said in a deep voice.
"B-But he... chirped, chirped?"
"It sounds a bit outrageous, but in Hu Di, it's normal." Dong Xiaoyin looked like someone who had been there before. Suddenly, he smiled again and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I have an impression of this person. Qiu Ta is the only one." The owner, if my guess is correct, should be the Q version of the villain who lives in that pocket pagoda. His name is Q Tower, and the National Master is a self-proclaimed title, because there is no country in Hudi, only a city."
This was the first time Yan Yueming heard that a national master could be self-proclaimed, and asked curiously: "Is Tower Q an NPC?"
Dong Xiaoyin: "Not sure. Hu Di is the core of the gap, and it is also the place with the most NPCs. In contrast, there are many wanderers who are stuck there and cannot leave, or are unwilling to leave. Some of these wanderers have already lost their lives. He has a human appearance and looks like an NPC, but he has not died as a human, so he is not an NPC. Tower Q is considered a neutral between NPCs and wanderers. People from the search and rescue department have dealt with him before. But he cannot be completely identified.
But now that he has connected with Tang Qiao,
I'm more inclined now - he's still human. "
"So that's it..." Yan Yueming nodded thoughtfully,
Then he asked: "Did he say anything else?"
"He said that fishermen from Hudi fished for the moon in the Tianhe River." Dong Xiaoyin was quite interested in the term "fishing for the moon". If her guess is correct, this is not just as simple as fishing for the moon. If the moon shines on Hu Di and the present world at the same time, it means that the gap and the moon are connected through the gap.
The fishermen's hooks are very powerful. They must have caught...human beings through the moon?
In just the blink of an eye, Dong Xiaoyin had already deduced most of the truth. Thinking further along this line of thought, "There was water where Anchor Su and Captain Yan disappeared."
Yan Yueming was stunned, "Were they fished away? The fishermen from Hu Di... were fished to Hu Di?!"
Dong Xiaoyin answered firmly, "No. Hu Di has been closed, and among the people who suddenly disappeared in the city, some people have been found one after another. They are scattered in different gaps, and their landing points are very random, but none of them are there. Have you ever heard of Hu Di?"
Yan Yueming thought he had found a way to Hu Di, but he was overjoyed in vain. But it doesn't matter, he quickly adjusted his mentality, and it was already good to be able to pass the message.
It's just that the moment of fluctuation has passed, and they can't send new news, they can only wait.
"I'll go back to the bureau. The sand table will be placed here. Don't touch it yet." Dong Xiaoyin had something to say, but did not explain much. After she left, Yan Yueming glanced at the door and found that more people from the inspection department were guarding here. Even the search and rescue team members who were busy going around to rescue people in the gap came over.
At this moment, No. 14 Heping Street is impregnable.
But Zhen is not an ordinary person. Will he take the risk and destroy the sand table?
With such doubts, Yan Yueming devoted himself to work again.
What he didn't know was that after Dong Xiaoyin returned to the Qi Xiang Bureau, she went directly into Deputy Minister Wen Ren's office, and during their conversation, there was an additional piece of information that Dong Xiaoyin did not say.
"Others don't know, but we all know that Q Tower is a former deserter from the Qi Phase Bureau. Do you think he is still trustworthy?" Dong Xiaoyin looked at Wenren Muxiao calmly, waiting for her answer.
Wenren Muxiao pondered for a moment and said: "There is a difference between deserters and betrayers. In this way, you can find a way to contact the gathering and ask them about Q Tower."
Dong Xiaoyin agreed, but did not leave immediately. She asked again: "Then do you think... Don Qiao is credible?"
Wenren Muxiao asked, "Do you think she is untrustworthy?"
Dong Xiaoyin: "Before Tang Qiao fell into the gap, the last person she saw was Zhen. We can't be sure whether she was affected by Zhen and became his puppet. The Qi Xiang Bureau didn't know much about Tang Qiao and the gathering. not enough."
Wenren Mu Xiao heard what Dong Xiaoyin meant. Even though Tang Qiao was good before, no one saw her again after she fought with Zhen and fell into the gap. If she can't see it with her own eyes, she can't confirm her position. If she's not afraid of ten thousand, she's just afraid of the worst.
"Then what do you think -" Wen Ren Mu Xiao looked at Dong Xiaoyin with sharp eyes, "Can Xiao Ming be trusted?"
Dong Xiaoyin's answer was affirmative, "Yes."
Wenren Muxiao: "Why?"
Dong Xiaoyin: "People on Huayuan Road are not that easy to deceive, especially Li Zheng."
Wenren Muxiao: "I understand, please go out."
When Dong Xiaoyin went out, Wenren Muxiao looked at the closed door and fell into deep thought.
Of course, the Qi Xiang Bureau did not completely trust Tang Qiao. She suddenly entered everyone's sight and fell into the gap before seeing anyone. If the Qi Xiang Bureau chose to completely trust her and trust the meeting, then it would be a disservice to everyone in Fangcheng and to everyone in the city. Work irresponsibly. Thinking of this, Wenren Muxiao picked up the landline again and made a call to the countermeasures headquarters. !
