reverse travel

This embarrassment didn't last long, Gao Qiong left Zhang Xiao's side, and walked around the tree not far away.

The place where the two of them lived was relatively secluded, and there were no people around. It was almost evening at this time, the rain had stopped, and the smoke from the kitchen was everywhere, and there seemed to be a vague fragrance catching them.

Gao Qiong circled around the tree, becoming more and more irritable.He knew that Zhang Xiao liked to watch him, otherwise he wouldn't have been staring at him by the window of the cafe all the time.But he didn't expect that this emotion would actually affect whether the two could return to their real timeline smoothly.

It makes sense for Ying Changhe to ask Yuan Yiwei to teach Zhang Xiao.Apart from Chen Yi, only Yuan Yiwei had the most attendance and the most experience in the cultural management committee.Zhang Xiao is a guide who has not received this kind of training. He doesn't know how to separate work affairs from personal emotions, so he will impulsively try to stop others from beating Ou Qing, or he can't activate Chen's system because he doesn't want to go back. instrument.

Looking back and seeing Zhang Xiao standing not far away looking at him worriedly, Gao Qiong felt even more irritable.

He absolutely does not want to partner with Zhang Xiao.

But Yuan Yiwei and Zhou Sha are already very good partners. Zhou Sha has recently moved to Yuan Yiwei's house. It is estimated that the two will apply for partnership within this year, so it is almost impossible for Zhou Sha and Zhang Xiao to partner. things.The only person who can partner with Zhang Xiao is himself—Gao Qiong feels even more overwhelmed.

"Sit down first, calm down." Gao Qiong walked back, pressed Zhang Xiao's shoulders and made him sit on the broken stone wall, "Let's chat first. Do you have anything you want to eat, or want to go A place to play?"

Gao Qiong is very serious, this is not a tone of chatting, but a tone of "please let us go back after this day's chat, or I will kill you".

Zhang Xiao was quite happy.He thought Gao Qiong was angry, but after wandering around for a long time, he still came back to chat with him.

"I don't have anything I particularly like to eat." He said happily, "Where I want to go to play... Actually, it's fun to go out with you."

Gao Qiong: "..."

The conversation couldn't continue anymore, Gao Qiong sat down on the corner opposite him, and asked word by word: "You have to figure it out, otherwise we won't be able to go back, and we can only die of old age here."

Zhang Xiao froze for a moment, then nodded quickly: "I think, I'll try my best."

He really started to think about it seriously.

In the silence, Gao Qiong looked at the darkening sky, then turned to look at Zhang Xiao.

This evening wind is no different from the evening wind at some point in the future.It blew the hair on Zhang Xiao's forehead, and those soft hairs were lifted up, bouncing and bouncing in the wind.Zhang Xiao was a little sluggish when he was thinking about things, his right hand was clenched against his mouth, his eyes were fixed on the ground, Gao Qiong stared at him for a few minutes, and he didn't blink once.

"... Is there nothing that I feel comfortable and happy to stay in?" Gao Qiong asked him.

Zhang Xiao came back to his senses suddenly, realized that Gao Qiong was serious about chatting, so he quickly slipped down from the stone wall and sat on the ground, keeping some distance from Gao Qiong. "Yes, after I graduated, I lived with my roommate. We rented a house in Tsinghua Community. The house is not big, just two bedrooms and one living room. But he is very busy with work and often doesn't go home, so it's like I feel comfortable living alone.”

Afraid that this rare topic would be interrupted, he kept searching for interesting things to share with Gao Qiong.

"There is a microwave in the kitchen, and I tried to use it last month. In winter, it's good to eat chestnuts. I bought some chestnuts outside, and asked the boss if they could be put in the microwave, and the boss said yes."

Gao Qiong: "...Impossible."

Zhang Xiao: "Yes... Anyway, it exploded. It scared me. My roommate was not at home that day, and I..."

He thought for a moment without saying what was wrong with him, and finally only added, "Anyway, I'm quite afraid of that sound."

Gao Qiong nodded.

It's going great.He seemed to be able to see the hope of going back.Come on, talk on, keep on talking, I listen to you—he looked at Zhang Xiao earnestly and enthusiastically.

As a result, Zhang Xiao stopped talking.He didn't talk about those exploding chestnuts, and started to be in a daze again. It took a long time to ask a new question: "Senior sister is a sentinel... There are very few female sentries, she is really powerful."

Zhang Xiao's topic was too jumpy, in order to let him talk more, Gao Qiong had no choice but to continue the chat: "She is indeed very powerful."

"Do you know what her spiritual body is?"

"Snake." Gao Qiong said, "And it's poisonous."

Zhang Xiao became interested: "What snake? How do you know it's poisonous?"

Gao Qiong frowned as he recalled.Zhou Sha told him about the type of his mental body, but he didn't remember it.

"Can't remember," he said, "but I fought her, so I know her snake is poisonous."

The leading relationship between sentry and guide is not absolutely one-to-one in most cases. A guide can lead several sentries, but a sentry can only accept the guidance of one guide.

Because of this, Sentinels are far more sought-after than Guides in the job market.Almost every company that enters the special talent market for recruitment will write "Sentinel priority" on the recruitment notice, and some companies will even indicate "This recruitment is only for sentinels" if they already have a guide.Employers generally believe that sentries are more important than guides, as long as there are enough guides, the number does not need to be too many.

As for whether it will cause the guide to lose control of his emotions due to overwork, this is not something they will consider.

This situation was especially common ten years ago.Soon, the guides who encountered discrimination in the job market couldn't sit still.The graduation season was originally the best time to apply for a job, but regardless of campus recruitment or social recruitment, the recruitment ratio of sentinels to guides has always been maintained at 30 to 1. In 1996, it even reached 50 to 1: all 654 sentries who graduated that year were found. Among the 321 guides who were recruited this year, only 13 signed a letter of intent for employment.

The rights protection and anti-discrimination activities initiated by the guides were quickly held everywhere, and the momentum gradually became larger.

Zhang Xiao knew about these things, but he didn't have a deep understanding. At that time, he didn't even think about what kind of work he would do in the future.While the discrimination of guides has not subsided, another situation quietly happened: as the positions that need sentries in society gradually became saturated after so many years of talent absorption, it became more and more difficult for sentries to find a job.And because the emotional and ability stability of guides is higher than that of sentinels, a large number of guides who cannot be employed in special talent positions turn to ordinary talent positions and compete with ordinary people in the workplace.Restricted by his own conditions, Sentinel has instead become a new spokesperson for the term "employment difficulty".

The Sentinels were then faced with a new challenge: before moving on to their new positions, they all had to undergo a fierce competitive elimination.

The rule of elimination is very simple, and most of the units do it this way: let the sentries who come to apply for the job and the original sentries of the unit have a real combat exercise.

Can beat, stay.Can't beat it, say goodbye.

This is how Gao Qiong and Zhou Sha fought.The two fought with their spiritual bodies, and the battle lasted for half an hour. Finally, Zhou Sha's snake bit Gao Qiong's spiritual body, and it was over.

"Her snake is very poisonous, very poisonous. It is said that a little bit of venom can kill 100 people." Gao Qiong said, "In fact, I can beat it well, but I didn't guard against being bitten. I can't do it."

Zhang Xiao wanted to hear the story, but Gao Qiong said a few words in a concise manner, and it was over.

He was very disappointed: "Can you tell me in detail?"

Gao Qiong looked at him: "Let me explain in detail, can you go back?"

Zhang Xiao: "...what is your spiritual body?"

Gao Qiong had no choice but to continue to cooperate with his new topic: "What is your spiritual body?"

"I don't know." Zhang Xiao said honestly, "I haven't seen it."

Gao Qiong was stunned: "Impossible."

"Really." Zhang Xiao didn't want to entangle the topic with himself, and returned to the original question, "What is your spiritual body?"

He asked repeatedly, and Gao Qiong's mind suddenly lit up.

There is no need to ask where and what Zhang Xiao is interested in, Zhang Xiao has the strongest interest in him at present.

Gao Qiong pulled Zhang Xiao up.

"Zhang Xiao, after I get back, I'll invite you to my house to play." Gao Qiong said in a low voice, "I'll just invite you, no one else will."

Zhang Xiao: "!"

He fainted immediately, and quickly confirmed: "Where is your home?"

"I'll tell you when I get back." In order to make his words more convincing, Gao Qiong added another sentence, "I'll roast chestnuts for you. I have a way. I will never fry them."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately saw a change in Chen Shiyi in his hand.

The ink characters instantly scattered and then gathered together, and the new time and coordinates appeared on the dial.

The temperature around the two dropped again.

"You can't let go of your sentinel during the space transition, you must be connected with him..." Gao Qiong took the time to remind Zhang Xiao, and Zhang Xiao grabbed his hand, "Close your eyes and don't look."

Zhang Xiao's hands were very hot, Gao Qiong touched his hair when he held him in his arms, it was soft, cool, and very comfortable.

The tiny ice particles disappeared, and the sharp wind gradually faded away. Before the two of them could open their eyes, a piercing siren suddenly exploded in their ears.

Gao Qiong pushed Zhang Xiao away, Zhang Xiao swayed a bit, and supported the things around him to stand still.There was a black iron cabinet under his hand, and when he looked up, Ying Changhe and Yuan Yiwei were in front of him.

"Director..." Zhang Xiao quickly smiled, "Long time no see."

Ying Changhe turned off the alarm, and even his eyebrows seemed to have thinned a lot: "Stop talking nonsense! Go to my office!"

Gao Qiong raised his hand aside: "This time it has nothing to do with me."

Ying Changhe: "Why has nothing to do with you! Have you told Zhang Xiao about the precautions for space transition!"

Gao Qiong: "...OK, it's my fault again."

"But criticize Zhang Xiao first today." Ying Changhe looked at Zhang Xiao, "Come to my office immediately!"

Zhang Xiao knew he was wrong, nodded repeatedly, and when he followed Ying Changhe out of the protection area, he suddenly remembered Gao Qiong's words, and quickly called him: "Gao Qiong, where is your home, when can I go to play...Gao Qiong???"

Gao Qiong ignored him, grabbed his mobile phone from the safe deposit box, and ran away.

Zhang Xiao: "..."

Ying Changhe: "You want to come to my house to play? That's fine. Have a welcome party for new employees...Yuan Yiwei! Where's your suppression ring!"

Yuan Yiwei immediately took out his mobile phone and ran away.

Zhang Xiao was at a loss: "Gao Qiong lives in your house?"

"I'm his guardian. He doesn't live in my house. Do you think he has his own home? He's poorer than you." Ying Changhe said, "Just in time, I have to tell you about your guardian."

"What happened to them?" Zhang Xiao was shocked.

"You can't fill in the names of your parents in the guardian." Ying Changhe said, "Zhang Xiao, a mental patient cannot be your guardian."

The author has something to say: Zhang Xiao: ...so you lied to me by inviting me to play at home?

Gao Qiong: ((￣～￣) chewing celery meat buns) Yes.

Zhang Xiao: Is there no way to roast chestnuts without frying them?

Author: Ah, it was me who roasted the chestnuts.

Zhang Xiao: Did it explode?

Author: ... exploded.
