Jia Shasha and Zhen Xiaoyi were carrying two heavy packages and looked at Hongying who said a warm farewell to them in front of the station, looking like they were about to cry.
"Shasha! Xiaoyi! Remember to find Qiye and bring him the dumplings~~" Hongying shouted at the top of her voice, "Bye~~ Call me if you have anything~"
Jia Shasha:o(╥﹏╥)丿(waving)
"Brother Shasha, what should I do?" As soon as she walked into the station, the girl Zhen Xiaoyi said with a cry, "That's the commander-in-chief of the night watchman! We, we are just two newcomers who have just graduated. Even if we go to the celebration, where can we go?"
See him..."
"Alas..." Jia Shasha picked up his backpack full of frozen dumplings and said dejectedly, "Just take it one step at a time."
"After a while, the two of us will change our backpacks. I will cool down the dumplings. They will melt on the way." Zhen Xiaoyi seemed to have remembered something, and patted the backpack with his palm. A chill seeped into it, keeping the frozen dumplings.
temperature.
"Let's talk about it after we get in the car. The car will leave soon."
The two took their tickets and boarded the green train to Shangjing City. Only when they got there would a special boat take them to the celebration venue at Shenlong Pass.
Since it was short notice, they did not buy tickets, so they could only hold a bag each and sit silently on the ground beside the carriage door.
Looking at the shadows of the trees flashing outside the window, the hearts of the young and girl were filled with worry.
…
Office of the Commander-in-Chief.
"... After preliminary discussions, our tentative performances include the dance "Sylvan Style" by the 198 team based in Banna City, the recitation "Me and My Shangjing" by the 006 team based in Shangjing City, and the dance "Me and My Shangjing" by the 006 team based in Shangjing City.
, the chorus brought by 9 night watchman teams from Gusu City, Changxi City, etc., "The Shining Medal Accompanies Me"...
In addition, the [Phoenix] team will act as the representative of the special team and perform the drama "Longing for Life"."
Secretary Min Junliang finished reading the program carefully and looked up at Lin Qiye behind the desk. "These are the performances that have been scheduled so far. Commander Lin, do you have anything else to add?"
Lin Qiye sat behind the desk, rubbing the light stubble on his chin with his right hand, and raised his brows slightly.
"What is the name of the show performed by the [Phoenix] team?"
""Longing for Life"."
"Well... this theme is not good, let them change it."
"Okay, what should I change it to?"
"It's called, 'I love work, work loves me'."
"no problem."
Min Junliang took note of this topic carefully and continued, "According to your instructions, most of the night watchmen who came to attend this meeting are rookies who have just graduated. The reception work has already begun."
"Well, how's it going over there in the mist?"
"We have communicated with the evil society and through their intelligence network, they have released the news that we are holding the 'Hunting God Celebration'. I heard that the group of outer gods hiding in the mist are very angry, but I have not heard of any
Too much action.”
"Have all the border defenses been taken down?"
"It has been removed. The location of Shenlong Pass is near the eastern border. As long as the celebration starts and the fireworks and music are set off, you will definitely be able to hear it in the fog."
"That's okay." Lin Qiye nodded slightly, and after a moment, added, "Before the celebration begins, the verification of the participants should be a little more relaxed, just show off, and spend more time on the program and venue layout.
It must be festive and grand!”
"Yes, Commander."
Min Junliang wrote down what Lin Qiye said, turned around and hurriedly arranged the work.
Lin Qiye stood up from the office chair and walked slowly to the window. In the reflection of the glass, the figure of the fateful monk with his hands clasped walked out from behind the office screen. Two identical faces overlapped in the reflection.
"The celebration has begun..." he murmured to himself.
…
Shanghai Railway Station.
Zhen Xiaoyi walked out of the station carrying a heavy backpack. Looking at the rushing crowd in front of her, her face turned pale and she silently shrank behind Jia Shasha.
Jia Shasha held her wrist and comforted her: "It's okay. You'll be fine when you get out soon."
"……Um."
Jia Shasha protected Zhen Xiaoyi and squeezed out of the crowd. When they reached the square outside, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhen Xiaoyi wiped the sweat from her forehead, glanced around, then pointed at a bus with an advertisement for "Shanghai Three-Day and Seven-Night Tour" and whispered, "Is it that one?"
Jia Shasha took out the photo from his pocket and compared it carefully. "Yes, it's the same as the one in the notice. That's it."
The two of them quickened their pace and walked straight to the tour bus. A figure dressed as a tour guide was leaning against the door and glanced at them lightly.
"Sorry, the tour group's quota is already full."
"We only attend nightclubs." Jia Shasha read the code in the notice.
The tour guide looked at them carefully, nodded slightly, and took out a list of names, "Which team are they from?"
"Team 136 in Cangnan City, Jia Shasha, Zhen Xiaoyi."
"Well, let's get in the car."
The two of them walked onto the bus and found that there were already five or six people sitting on the bus. They should all be night watchmen from all over Daxia who came to participate in this celebration. They were about the same age as them. Everyone looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"I saw my classmate from the training camp." Zhen Xiaoyi whispered to Jia Shasha after sitting down.
"Then why don't you go say hello?"
"I...I don't dare...I was not familiar with them in the training camp before..."
"...Forget it then, one more thing is worse than one less thing."
"Have the dumplings in your bag melted?"
"I do not know."
"Open it and take a look."
"No... there are many people on this bus. It would be embarrassing if people saw us carrying two big bags of dumplings from Cangnan."
"Well, then give me the bag and I'll cool it down first."
After hesitating for a moment, Jia Shasha exchanged his backpack with Zhen Xiaoyi. As time passed, more and more night watchmen got on the bus. After more than half an hour, the vehicle slowly started and drove towards the end of the road.
"Jia Shasha, you're here too?!" A surprised voice came from behind Jia Shasha.
Jia Shasha looked back and saw that the person sitting behind him was a classmate from the previous training camp. "Yes, what a coincidence."
"I've met a lot of acquaintances along the way... Hey, your bag is so bulging, what does it contain?"
"...Nothing, just some daily necessities." Jia Shasha silently hugged his backpack tightly, and the cold air seeped out from the bag, making his whole body tremble slightly.
