monster town

Now that they have all met, Qianqian warmly invites Yu Dongdong and his assistant to her wedding tomorrow.It's hard to turn down the kindness, Yu Dongdong agreed.

Then Abai followed Qianqian and her fiancé to leave first. Yu Dongdong and Abai made an appointment to meet at the entrance of the hotel in the evening. He and Feng Feng had to go to the puppet organization first.

The notice sent by the puppet organization told Yu Dongdong to arrive before twelve o'clock today.It was just eleven o'clock now, Yu Dongdong arrived at the office building where the puppet organization was located, showed his identity certificate at the front desk, and was led into an elevator by the staff to reach the sixteenth floor.

The staff opened a lounge and said: "The meeting will be held on time at [-]:[-] p.m. Please rest here first."

Later, the staff brought tea and snacks before leaving again.

Yu Dongdong drank the good spirit tea, feeling completely at a loss in his mind, not knowing what he was here for, and what kind of meeting would be held two hours later.

The sixteenth floor is full of small lounges like them. While waiting for the meeting to start, people are constantly being brought up by the staff.At the very beginning, Yu Dongdong heard the movement, opened the door to look, and noticed that two or three people entered several lounges, most of them were uniformly dressed, they were all monks.

Afterwards, the staff delivered lunch for two.Yu Dongdong asked the assistant who stood by the window and looked at the busy traffic below, "Ah Huang, come to eat quickly. There are so many monks here. I always feel that the meeting later will be very serious. What do you think will happen?"

Xing Feng sat down opposite Yu Dongdong, and when Yu Dongdong set the meal, he took apart a pair of chopsticks from the two of them and passed them over. He was very skilled, after all, he often did it in the small town.He said: "The town doesn't care about human affairs. Since the town has been notified to attend the meeting, it must have something to do with monsters."

Yu Dongdong also thought so, but since this is a puppet organization, could it be that it is actually related to the puppet people?

Yu Dongdong didn't know if his guess was right or not. Not long after he had dinner with Zhou Feng, the staff came to inform him to go to the meeting room.Zhou Feng originally followed Yu Dongdong to go there with him, but the staff stopped him and said that only Yu Dongdong could attend the meeting.

Boss Feng Feng was unhappy to be left behind, and Yu Dongdong put on his small town pass and went out.

The meeting place is on the 22nd floor, and you have to take the elevator up.As soon as Yu Dongdong entered the elevator, a group of people came from behind, some of them were monks whom he had seen before.The other people should know each other usually, nodding and saying hello to each other familiarly.Only Yu Dongdong, a low-level monk with no background, would never have set foot in this place if he hadn't become a town administrator.

Those people couldn't help but look at him curiously.Then they saw the pass on Yu Dongdong's chest, and many people's complexions changed, curiosity, fear, and disgust appeared on their faces.Some people treated him very well and smiled kindly at him.

An older-looking man with a particularly ugly face asked Yu Dongdong, "The town is up to you? Where's Fengfeng?"

Yu Dongdong sensed that this man was hostile to him, no, it should be said that he was hostile to the town and even Fengfeng. He glanced at the other person's clothes, noticed the special logo on his clothes, and recognized that it was the largest man in Xingcheng. The sect inherits the sect logo of Qianzong.

Yu Dongdong looked back and said, "The mayor is currently in retreat."

The older man was very angry: "If you don't retreat sooner or later, it's just this time."

Yu Dongdong didn't speak, but a monk who was about the same age as the man spoke for him, "Elder Zhou, sometimes you can't control the matter of retreating, you don't know it, no one would have thought that such a thing would happen suddenly, no wonder Zhou Senior Feng."

Elder Zhou was so blocked that he had nothing to say, and his face turned livid.

Then Yu Dongdong felt as if he was being squeezed out by the group headed by Elder Zhou, he didn't care if he touched his nose, since he didn't know them anyway, so he ignored them.

All the way to the 22nd floor without incident, everyone came to a fairly large conference room, where many people were already seated.Yu Dongdong was led to sit in his seat, which was quite in the front. It was a coincidence that the monk sitting next to him was the one who spoke for him.

"Hello, thank you just now." Yu Dongdong took the initiative.

The other party smiled and said: "You're welcome, my surname is Long, and I come from the Xuanyang Sect of the Jialin Artifact Refining Sect."

Yu Dongdong suddenly realized that Long Zhang, the suzerain of Xuanyang Sect, had a mutated earthworm monster beside him. If it hadn't been for this earthworm, Long Zhang might not have survived at the beginning of the mutation.Jialin's sects have always been united with each other. In order to protect the monsters that came to join them, the Xuanyang Sect also tried its best to confront the outside sects.Feng Feng was once protected by them and lived in Jialin for hundreds of years, so there should be contacts.

So it's not surprising that this monk surnamed Long came out to help.

Cultivator Long suddenly laughed meaningfully in a low voice: "That grandfather just now personally hunted and killed Senior Fengfeng."

Yu Dongdong understood, no wonder Elder Zhou had such an ugly expression.I heard that afterward, Fengfeng came to kick the hall and repaired the monks who chased and killed him badly. Several monks were seriously injured by Fengfeng, and their cultivation stagnated.

Those monks who fell were all the best in those sects. Without those people, the strength of the sect declined a lot, and it was soon overtaken by other sects, and its social status and resources were also greatly affected.

It can be said that since then, these sects have formed a deadly enmity with Feng Feng. If it were not for the constraints of the Law and the Cultivation Association, they might unite again to besiege Feng Feng.

However, Feng Feng's cultivation level is no longer the same. As the only known transformed monster for thousands of years, now he will be honored as a senior when he goes out. Even if these sects work together, they may not be his opponent.

……

As the time went forward little by little, the seats in the conference room became more and more full. According to Yu Dongdong's observation, all of these visitors were people who could talk from various forces in Huaguo.Seeing that the hour hand pointed to one o'clock in the afternoon, the last meeting participant walked in, and then the door was closed.

He walked to the podium in the conference room and introduced himself: "Hello everyone, I am Xiao Hong, the maintenance supervisor of Xinghai Consciousness. I invite you to come here today because an unexpected accident happened to the Xinghai maintenance team."

Yu Dongdong sat down and listened quietly, watching Xiao Hong raised his hand and swiped at the wall behind him, and the white wall turned into a high-definition screen.A senior puppet with amber eyes appeared on the screen, with a name tag on his chest, a simple number 5.

"This is Senior Puppet No. 5." Xiao Hong said, "I think everyone here should understand the meaning of this number."

Yu Dongdong also knew about this.Due to the limitation of cultivation, at the beginning the puppet faction could only produce junior puppets, after 100 years there were intermediate puppets, and after another [-] years it was advanced puppets.

After the Star Sea of ​​Consciousness came out, because it was connected to human consciousness, the maintenance of the connected core terminal became very important.The core terminal is jointly developed by refiners, ghost cultivators, array masters and some senior scientific researchers, and the maintenance procedures are also very complicated.Initially, this function was performed by the monks. Later, when the first high-level puppet was produced, it was designated as No. 1, and began to replace the monks to maintain the core terminal. No. 5, indicating that he is the fifth high-level puppet to be created.And such a number not only shows the time when he was created, but also represents that he has never been formatted for more than 1000 years from the day he was created to the present, which is longer than the lifespan of many monks.

Elder Zhou asked the doubts of everyone present, "What's wrong with No. 5?"

Xiao Hong swiped his hand towards the wall again, and several documents appeared on it. He said with a serious expression: "A month ago, we accidentally discovered that No. 5 was behaving abnormally. After some inspection and demonstration, we believed that he had developed a spiritual intelligence. "

"what?!"

There was a commotion in the conference room, and Yu Dongdong was also taken aback.However, he thought about it carefully. Ordinary plants and trees can mutate and develop spiritual intelligence, so it doesn't seem surprising that high-level puppets refined from various rare materials have developed their own consciousness in thousands of years.

Most of the people present were not as open-minded as Yu Dongdong. They are all monks. For them, this world should be their home field, but first there were spiritual monsters competing with them for cultivation resources. Without their intelligence, their living space and resources are once again being squeezed out.

Elder Zhou took the lead and said, "This No. 5 cannot be kept!"

"Yes, you can't stay! It's too dangerous! The high-level puppet man's cultivation level is not low, and his IQ is even higher. What if he has evil intentions towards human beings!"

"His consciousness must be erased!"

"Destroy him!"

Most of the people agreed with Elder Zhou, and many people were silent. Yu Dongdong observed it and found that the name tags in front of these people basically had the word "Jialin" emblazoned on the front.

Cultivator Long said: "No. 5 has served Xinghai for more than a thousand years. I think that even if he is enlightened, it is just one more puppet monster in this world."

"Yes, I don't think you should panic so much, just treat it normally, there are many creatures in this world."

Elder Zhou pointed at the cultivator who spoke for No. 5 and cursed: "I think you were taken away by a monster! You, a human, actually spoke for a non-human!"

"That's better than you. It's like suffering from persecution paranoia all day long. If you don't provoke those spiritual monsters, they have time to harm you?"

"You mean something, what do you mean!"

Yu Dongdong listened to their quarrel with embarrassment, but he felt that it had nothing to do with him.Although he represents the small town, he is very self-aware, knowing that it is not his turn to express his opinion on this occasion and this issue.However, this problem is really difficult to solve. The sects of Jialin protect the monsters, but the sects other than Jialin, especially those who advocate hunting and killing spiritual monsters, want to get rid of the monsters and hurry up.They have always had a lot of hatred for the existence of the town, and now there is No. 5 who is enlightened. If No. 5 stays in the end, Yu Dongdong feels that these people are afraid that they will be so angry that they will vomit blood.

Xiao Hong frowned, he raised his hand to control the scene, and suddenly turned his gaze to Yu Dongdong, "You are the current person in charge of the town, Yu Dongdong, right?"

Because of his question, Elder Zhou and the others quieted down, looking at Yu Dongdong together.

Yu Dongdong coughed lightly, nodded: "Yes."

Xiao Hong asked: "So, how do you think the problem of No. 5 should be dealt with?"

Yu Dongdong was stunned for a moment, then he thought about it seriously, and asked Xiao Hong a question: "I want to know, what kind of attitude do you colleagues who work with No. 5 have towards him?"

Xiao Hong smiled, and said: "Our team has 200 people, including me, 190 and eight of them all think that No. 5 should stay in this world."

Yu Dongdong also said: "You know No. 5 better than we do. I think you all think so, so I think No. 5 can stay."

This is a more emotional answer, without considering other things, only proceeding from personal feelings.Even if it is a robot, it will have feelings after getting along for a long time.Yu Dongdong feels that Xiao Hong and the others have more say than him, Elder Zhou and the others, whether the number 5 who has opened up his intelligence is good or bad.

The conversation between the two made Elder Zhou and the others angry.

"I object!"

"No. 5 cannot stay!"

Xiao Hong glanced at Elder Zhou and the others, "Actually, not many people know about the 5th. Today's meeting is also held in a small area. Originally, I just wanted you to vote to decide whether to stay on the 5th. Before, We're not optimistic about the outcome of the vote..."

Yu Dongdong looked around at the people present. Like Xiao Hong, he was not optimistic about the voting results.Without counting, he knew that more than half of the people voted against it.

"However," Xiao Hong didn't finish his sentence, "in the first five minutes of the meeting, someone posted the matter on the 5th on the Internet."

Xiao Hong scratched the wall, and the information on it became the real-time news of a certain website.Xiao Hong said: "The netizen who posted this on the Internet, after our investigation, he is a maintenance member of the team. His surname is Wang, and he is your distant nephew, Elder Zhou."

Elder Zhou looked a little embarrassed and annoyed, "What's wrong with my nephew, you said I ordered this?"

Xiao Hongdao: "I didn't say that. However, the rest of our team are very grateful to him." He mobilized the data to show everyone, "This colleague Wang is against No. 5, and he advocates erasing No. 5." Consciousness, his words are extreme, magnifying the theory of the harm of enlightened puppet people to human beings, and there is a strong orientation."

Like everyone else, Yu Dongdong opened his virtual screen and started to check.Yu Dongdong discovered that this colleague Wang not only listed many possible harms if No. 5 was left behind, but also initiated a vote. The number of votes opposed to No. 5's stay far exceeded the number of votes in favor of No. 5's stay.

However, the current approval votes are also rising at an extremely fast rate. According to this speed, it will take less than half an hour to surpass the negative votes.

Yu Dongdong read the comments on this matter for a while, and at the beginning everyone was influenced by colleague Wang, and they all spoke fiercely and extremely, and without exception, they all opposed No. 5 staying.Later, different voices began to emerge.

"My family is a junior puppet. My parents bought it back to accompany me when I was nine years old. He took me to and from school every day. When my parents were away, he told me bedtime stories to lull me to sleep. Someone bullied me. When I die, he will still stand in front of me. He has no intelligence, but I think he is a real person, a family who loves me, cares about me and protects me. After my parents had an accident, he supported me to live The only motivation. If he has intelligence like No. 5, I think I will be happier. I don’t mean to dislike him by saying that, I love him very much.”

"No. 5 just has a human brain, no different from those spiritual monsters. Why can we tolerate spiritual monsters, but not this puppet who has served mankind for thousands of years?"

"Let's talk about my puppet grandpa. When I was born, I was born with a disabled right hand and was a girl. Then my parents threw me at the edge of the forest and almost fed the demonized beast. It was my grandma who picked me up. My grandma's family all The accident was gone, and only one puppet was with her. This puppet grew up with grandma, and then brought me up. Later, grandma passed away, and the parts of grandpa puppet were old and the program was not working well. But he still executed Grandma's order, find a job to earn money to support me, pay for my education, earn money so that I have the opportunity to practice martial arts. Because of his health problems, he occasionally forgets his way home, just like an old man with dementia. I went to find him to go home. He has caused me a lot of trouble, but I still love him. Not long ago, I changed the parts and programs for my grandpa, although he was formatted, I can’t remember me and Grandma, but he will always be my dear grandpa."

"Puppets seem to have no emotions, and their expressions, words and deeds are the same. But I think they are the most loyal in the world and will not betray your existence."

"The old man next door suddenly left. His son and daughter were unfilial. The puppet who took care of him for many years took care of the funeral. After hearing the news, the children came back to fight for the family property, but the old man had already made a will and left all the inheritance to the puppet. .”

"[Picture] [Picture] Two photos from PO, last week, I just held a wedding with the puppet who has been with me for more than ten years, the relationship is not going well, I always meet strange things, I get hurt several times, he is always with me My family understands me very well. I thought I was going to talk about a lifetime of unrequited love. Haha, now I can look forward to whether he will suddenly have wisdom one day and love me like I love him?"

Behind these comments are basically netizens telling stories about themselves or their neighbors or family members and the puppets. Without exception, the puppets are very good partners in their eyes.From the beginning of creation, the purpose of the puppets is to help human beings. They believe that even if they have spiritual intelligence, the original intention of these puppets will not change.

Puppets have no feelings, but people have feelings.These comments seem to be blindly optimistic, but as one of the comments said, it is better to kill by mistake than let it go. It seems correct, but it is too cold-blooded.

Xiao Hong smiled quietly: "Just now, I received a message from my superiors. The decision to stay on the 5th is based on today's online voting results. Colleague Wang will be disappointed."

Elder Zhou blushed, "Since this is the case, what are you calling us for?"

After all, he shook his sleeves and left.

People followed one after another, and Yu Dongdong sat in his seat and continued to watch the voting situation.

Xiao Hong walked up to him and asked, "Mr. Yu, is the town willing to take in No. 5?"

"willing."

Yu Dongdong said without thinking, No. 5 can stay in this world, but it is definitely not possible to continue the original job, so there must be someone to stay.Not to mention that Yu Dongdong himself is willing to take him in, just say that the mayor of his family, according to his temperament of vengeance, he should be willing to do anything that can make the enemy unhappy.

Xiao Hong said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you very much. In fact, you don't know that we didn't plan to disclose the matter on the 5th, and his final fate was not decided by voting, but only by the opinion of the town. allow."

"Then this meeting..."

Xiao Hong showed helplessness, "It was Colleague Wang, who told us about this in private, forcing us to express our views. We were all worried that we would not be able to keep No. 5 this time, but who knew that Colleague Wang made a fortune."

Speaking of this, both Yu Dongdong and Xiao Hong laughed. He is not the only one who can guide public opinion.However, even though the higher authorities let No. 5 stay, they still have some precautions against him. Sending him to a small town may be a different kind of detention, but this is already much better than the result of having his mind wiped out and his body destroyed.

Yu Dongdong stayed until the online voting ended, and without any suspense, the yes votes surpassed the negative votes by a large margin.

Afterwards, Xiao Hong took Yu Dongdong to the elevator and walked up several floors to an office.

The door opened, and a man sat by the window with his back to them.He stood up and turned around, with a name tag on his chest, the number 5.

He is No. 5, a high-level puppet with a delicate appearance and warm eyebrows, who looks very comfortable. On his shoulder, there is a white muffin bird standing.

Xiao Hong smiled and walked over, "Xiao Wu, it's all right."

Obviously Number 5 knew what had happened to him and what he was facing.He called Xiao Hong as the supervisor, and smiled gently without any haze, "Thank you." Then he turned his eyes to Yu Dongdong, his eyes fell on his pass for a second, and said friendlyly: "Hello, Mr. Yu, I will trouble you in the future .”

Yu Dongdong smiled and said: "No trouble, you are welcome to become a member of the town."

No. 5 is a very gentle puppet, and the first meeting between the two parties was very pleasant.Yu Dongdong will not return to the town yet, and on the 5th, he still needs to set aside time to say goodbye to his former colleagues.So Yu Dongdong made an appointment with him to pick him up in two days.

Afterwards, Yu Dongdong returned to the lounge, and saw his assistant sitting on the sofa with closed eyes, frowning and looking irritable.Hearing the sound of his return, he immediately opened his eyes, "Are you back?"

"I'm back, let's go." Yu Dongdong said.

Feng Feng got up and straightened his clothes.Yu Dongdong looked at his emotions and actions like an ordinary human being, and thought of Feng Feng's age, he suddenly said, "Ah Huang, do you know what meeting I was going to just now?"

Zhe Feng asked uninterestedly: "What will happen?"

Yu Dongdong briefly talked about the matter of No. 5, and asked him: "You should be about the same age as No. 5. When do you think you will be like him, possess intelligence, and become a real human being."

But Feng Feng said: "Although you represent the small town, you are not afraid that if you take No. 5 in, after you leave the small town in the future, you will be retaliated by those who oppose it?"

"Find something in his position." Yu Dongdong said, "I can't just do nothing just because I'm afraid of things that haven't happened. I just follow my heart. And... I think my decision should be It will make the mayor happy. When he is happy, he may look at me more pleasingly. How about keeping me longer? Then I will continue to work hard to do more things that satisfy him, so that he will look more and more pleasingly at me, so I can stay longer and longer, maybe in the end I can be an administrator in the town all the time, and naturally no one will dare to trouble me!"

Xing Feng, who really felt comfortable and happy because of Yu Dongdong's decision, couldn't help but sneered in his heart, thinking that this kid had a pretty good idea.

However, he does look a little more pleasing to the eye.

Zhou Feng squinted his eyes and pinched the tip of his little finger in his heart, it was really just a little bit.
