Chapter 157 Temporary worker
Chen Mu was unprepared for this.
But because of his mental strength, he could clearly see Tang Jing's movements when she fell to the ground, and instinctively wanted to help her, but at the next moment, a more powerful instinct changed his strategy.
A stone suddenly rose up from the ground, like a stool, which could be used to cushion Tang Jing's buttocks. Her falling body stopped immediately, but her upper body still fell backwards.
Because it happened so suddenly, Chen Mu probably only did half of this operation with his own consciousness, and the other half was instinct like a conditioned reflex, just like when he used a shield to block the enemy's spear for the first time.
Immediately afterwards, a baffle suddenly stood up from the edge of the stool, acting like a backrest, blocking Tang Jing's leaning body. This time it was indeed Chen Mu's ability to take the initiative.
Tang Jing seemed to have just made a very ordinary action of sitting down, but a chair with a backrest rose up from the ground in a very cooperative manner.
From beginning to end, it was just a blink of an eye.
Chen Mu didn't even have time to think about what happened.
Tang Jing's falling movement was half-hearted, but it shocked her to wake up a little.
Holding her forehead in her hands, she simply sat on this cement chair, raised her head and rested for a while.
Chen Mu didn't ask out loud.
for a long time.
Tang Jingcai took a long breath and raised her head.
"I'm still wondering when you will realize this use of abilities." The previous extremely embarrassed look was gone, and Tang Jing returned to her confident and shrewd look.
However, Chen Mu always felt a little strange.
Although the Tang Jing in front of her was smiling as brightly as before, for some reason, there seemed to be something missing in her smile. Chen Mu couldn't describe this feeling. He just felt that at that moment, Tang Jing was different from before, but he couldn't explain exactly what was different.
"Should we talk about your problem first?" Chen Mu was somewhat dissatisfied with her reaction.
"I'm fine." Tang Jing didn't care about what just happened.
"Are you sure?" Chen Mu frowned.
"If I really have a problem, can you help me solve it?" Tang Jing said calmly.
Chen Mu paused for a moment, and then spread his hands helplessly: "At least you can say it, let's discuss it."
Tang Jing stopped her smile and seemed to be really considering this possibility, but after a moment, she shook her head and said, "Thank you, I do need your help, but not now."
Chen Mu was a little dissatisfied with her mysterious approach, but thinking that this was probably due to the special nature of her powers, he didn't say more.
Judging from the appearance just now, it was almost 100% certain that Tang Jing had awakened, because Chen Mu had had that kind of headache reaction many times.
In order to achieve the best training effect, he deliberately tried to overdraw his mental power to various extents several times to test his growth the next day.
However, unlike what I thought at the beginning, it is not that the more serious the mental overdraft is, the faster the growth of abilities will be. Of course, this is also one aspect, but more importantly, it is the overall situation of the use of mental power, or the efficiency.
This again involves the issue of control.
The growth effect of the same amount of mental power, if used extensively, is far less than that of delicate operation.
This is consistent with common sense.
Just like a person exercising, scientific and reasonable methods may be more important than exercise time.
But Chen Mu knew nothing about Tang Jing's situation.
"Let's get back to you."
Tang Jing pushed the somewhat scattered hair behind her ears and said, "When did you think of this method of control?"
Chen Mu felt helpless and communicated with Tang Jing, It's easy to get caught up in her rhythm, and the content of her words doesn't seem to be anything special, but combined with her tone, movements, expressions and other aspects, she can always take the initiative in the conversation.
"Use your feet?" Chen Mu said, "I tried it a long time ago, but as I said before, the efficiency is far less than using hands." "You know I didn't
mention this when asking," Tang Jing said.
"Conductivity." Chen Mu nodded.
The only way to make the chair just now was to use his feet to control the ground. This was something he had tried a long time ago.
It's just that there hasn't been very good progress.
On the one hand, it is because the control ability of the feet is far inferior to that of the hands.
On the other hand, it’s because of the shoes.
This leads to another question, the conductivity of superpowers.
Simply put, it is how to transmit power through one object to another object to achieve the same effect. Especially when the two objects are made of completely different materials.
In this regard, Chen Mu has actually tried many times.
When the materials of the two objects are the same, this is not difficult. It is nothing more than a fusion.
But when the two are completely different materials, the situation becomes more complicated.
For example, he can easily make a crutch out of stainless steel and put it on the ground, but it is a little difficult to use the crutch to control the cement floor.
It is even more difficult to use your feet to control the ground through shoes.
Chen Mu is wearing ordinary sneakers, which cost 58 yuan a pair from street stalls. He has worn them for more than a year and the quality is surprisingly good. Of course, it will be much easier
if he is barefoot, but unless he has Chang Junyan's ability, Otherwise it is impractical.
The conductivity of different materials is also different, and basically no rules can be found.
Many times, although he can use superpowers proficiently, he actually knows very little about its operating principles. This is like a person who drives a car thiefly and may not understand the principles of an engine.
Hearing what Tang Jing meant, she also thought about this issue, but she didn't discuss it with Chen Mu immediately.
The relationship between the two was a bit subtle from the beginning. Chen Mu could feel Tang Jing's special attention to him - this attention had nothing to do with the relationship between men and women. It seemed that he was like a beautiful piece of art, while Tang Jing was. Artists, while appreciating something, always want to study it.
"The conductivity problem is probably the biggest challenge you will face in the future, so there is no need to be too anxious." Tang Jing smiled: "But you did a really good job just now." "
That was a subconscious behavior, just like me The first time you use the shield."
"Being able to do it subconsciously at least proves that you already have the strength. The rest is to train yourself to be able to take the initiative."
Tang Jing said: "You can try to take the chair back . Go...wait for me to get up first."
The moment Tang Jing stood up, the cement chair suddenly fell apart and collapsed as if melting, but the ground still could not return to its original flat state.
At the same time, not far from the chair, there was a bump.
Chen Mu scratched his head in embarrassment: "Still not skilled enough."
He tried again, and it was finally better than before, but compared with the first time he caught Tang Jing, both speed and accuracy were far behind.
He closed his eyes and concentrated.
A few minutes later, Chen Mu discovered that the ground under his feet had changed beyond recognition, with pits and unevenness, as if it had been bombed, and there was a sense of desolation and desolation.
The most egregious thing is that some of the cement has crawled down the calf to the knee.
If you keep doing this, you might become a terracotta warrior.
He activated his superpower, removed the restraints on his legs, and took a few steps away.
"The strength is already very good, but the control is still a little behind."
"It's not worse, but a lot worse." Chen Mu shook his head. He knew very well that this entire piece of destroyed ground seemed to be very powerful. But it just exposed his weakness.
He squatted down and placed the palm of his right hand on the ground.
next moment.
The cement floor was like a piece of crumpled paper that was suddenly straightened and instantly became smooth and flat, even more regular than the original ground around it.
The mess on my feet was cleaned up in one go by my hands.
Chen Mu didn't have much joy.
Tang Jing saw his mood and said with a smile: "Take your time."
...
...
Since the battle with No. 1 Middle School, the atmosphere inside Qiming has obviously changed, and everyone has become more proactive in their work.
Chang Junyan, Zhao Xiaoyan and others originally only followed Dong Junwei's arrangements and did whatever they were told. But now, they have begun to actively pay attention to the development of the organization in general, and occasionally ask some long-term questions.
Obviously, when there are uncertainties in survival, everyone wants to control the future as much as possible.
This day.
As usual, Du Jiajia prepared everyone's lunch and cleared away the dishes after everyone finished eating.
She initially took on the responsibility of cooking because she was afraid of being abandoned by the team, but now as one of Qiming's biggest sources of confidence, Du Jiajia's status can be said to be as stable as a mountain.
But she still didn't give up cooking. Instead, her interest became more intense after the ingredients were abundant.
But in the current kitchen, Du Jiajia no longer works alone.
Because of the increase in the number of people, the workload of three meals a day has increased dramatically.
As a last resort, Du Jiajia asked the organization to provide her with a helper.
The goal is also very clear, Zhao Xiaoyan.
Zhao Xiaoyan also readily agreed, and it was obvious that the two of them were already "complicit" in private.
Because it was not a big deal, Dong Junwei just asked everyone for their opinions while eating, and quickly made a decision.
Zhao Xiaoyan got her wish and became the second official employee of Qiming Kitchen. With her abilities, she was quite suitable for kitchen work. Dong Junwei encouraged her on the day she took office, saying that she expected her to take her kitchen work to a higher level...
Not only that, Dong Junwei also equipped the kitchen with two temporary workers-Feng Xiaoyu and Qian Fei.
As the only two unawakened members besides Tang Jing, it is understandable that they were assigned a part-time job in the kitchen.
Qian Fei, as one of the first 9 members of Class 4, Grade 3, currently plays the least role. Zhu Hao at least has a role to study every day, but he can only do some ordinary physical work.
Of course, in Qiming, no matter what ability you have, including Dong Junwei, you have to do some ordinary moving work every day.
This is related to the current focus of work.
According to the work plan for the next month made at the fourth plenary meeting of Qiming, in the short term, except for a few members of Qiming Construction Company, others will mainly work on sorting out the lower shelves and floors.
Feng Xiaoyu's identity is also a bit embarrassing. As a latecomer, he doesn't know many people in the team. In addition, he has not yet awakened, so his sense of presence is very low.
Sun Yuan, who came with her, had already become involved with Zhu Hao and others. He was known as Qiming's "Three Lowly Guests" and his reputation spread far and wide.
Moreover, as a bystander, Feng Xiaoyu clearly felt that Tang Jing valued Sun Yuan even more than Chang Junyan and others.
It was indeed unfortunate to be valued by Tang Jing, but it also proved that he had huge potential.
Feng Xiaoyu has become more and more anxious during this time. Her thoughts are very similar to Du Jiajia's before, and she is afraid of being abandoned by the team.
Privately, she also asked He Ying if Dong Junwei could arrange some regular work for her, which would at least give her a chance to prove her worth.
Because of this, he got the title of temporary kitchen worker.
The two temporary workers had no actual responsibilities and only needed to help Du Jiajia and Zhao Xiaoyan when they were overwhelmed. Of course, Du Jiajia still arranged a fixed job for them.
Qian Fei is mainly responsible for clearing away the tableware in the studio after meals and helping to wash dishes and chopsticks;
Feng Xiaoyu is responsible for preparing meals for everyone.
Yes, that’s the waitress who used to shake her hands in the cafeteria.
...
After adding three helpers at once, the pressure on Du Jiajia suddenly became much lighter, so that she had more time to think and study her own abilities.
After cleaning up the kitchen today, she quickly walked out the door.
The time to meet Xiao Huang became more and more fixed, which also proved that Du Jiajia had a deeper and deeper influence on cats.
As usual, Du Jiajia heard the familiar cat meowing when she walked to the door. She didn't pay attention, opened the passage door and walked out.
However, as soon as she got outside, Du Jiajia suddenly became excited.
Look up.
A cat is also a cat, but it is not Xiao Huang.
The white cat, which is all white and smaller than Xiao Huang, is sitting on the ground obediently.
Du Jiajia's heart almost stopped.
This was obviously the little white cat that Xiao Huang beat away last time. I thought it would never come back, but it suddenly appeared at the door in a few days.
Du Jiajia had only heard its voice through the door last time, but had never actually seen it. Now that she suddenly came in front of it, she was completely at a loss.
Will it eat me.
Du Jiajia did not dare to make drastic moves for fear of causing misunderstanding.
But my heart was pounding.
However, the little white cat just tilted its head and looked at Du Jiajia curiously without making any movement.
One person and one cat were in a stalemate.
Suddenly, the little white cat stood up.
Du Jiajia was so frightened that she almost wanted to run back, but her legs were so weak that she couldn't walk.
However, the next moment, the white cat just changed its posture, lying down, with its two front paws stretched forward against the ground, and its head resting on its front legs, with an innocent look on its face.
"Ah?"
Du Jiajia immediately put her mind back to where it was because she was very familiar with this action.
Isn't this what Xiao Huang did when he wanted to communicate with her?
Could it be that this white cat was really attracted to her and came here?
Du Jiajia suddenly realized what Tang Jing had said to her before.
She remembered that everyone had encouraged her to take this little white one under her wing, but because of Xiao Huang's jealousy, she was unable to achieve her wish.
Now Xiao Huang happens to be away... Du Jiajia feels like having an affair...
indoors.
Sun Yuan was the first person to notice something was wrong. After using his ability to listen, he immediately told Tang Jing about the matter. Tang Jing didn't seem worried, and even didn't bother to pay attention. She was still concentrating on writing something on the paper.
In the end, Dong Junwei was still worried and called Chen Mu to come to the door together.
In order to avoid irritating the white cat, they only dared to move in the blind area of the cat's field of vision and stare at Du Jiajia.
Du Jiajia felt brave and walked forward slowly.
When he came to the little white cat's paw, he just raised his hand and looked around worriedly, for fear that Xiao Huang would suddenly jump out.
Finally, I found that there was nothing wrong, so I gritted my teeth and touched it.
A familiar feeling of intimacy came over me.
When I first came into contact with Xiao Huang, I had a similar feeling.
"Meow..."
The little white cat also seemed very happy. He blinked his eyes, licked his lips, and lowered his head.
...
He Ying and others stared nervously outside the room. Dong Junwei complained about Du Jiajia being too impatient at first, but she was a little relieved at this time.
Chen Mu doesn't like cats very much, but he doesn't hate them either. But in his opinion, if Du Jiajia can tame one more cat, Qiming's safety level will be raised to a higher level.
Next time someone invades, there will be an extra layer of insurance.
Of course, that's assuming the two cats don't fight.
"Is Du Jiajia considered a scumbag?" Zhao Xiaoyan said with a smile.
"You know how to differentiate between friendship and love." Zhu Hao sounded like someone who has come before.
"But Xiao Huang doesn't think so. We wouldn't have fought last time." Feng Xiaoyu seemed to like this kind of topic and couldn't help but gossip.
"Yes, cats are extremely jealous, let alone a female cat. Hey, by the way, is Xiao Huang a male cat or a female cat?" Lu Shanshan also joined in.
Dong Junwei smiled and said: "I heard Du Jiajia say it seems to be a female cat."
"What about this white one?"
"I don't know."
"Regardless of whether they are male or female, the white cats seem to be Xiao Huang's brothers and sisters." Zhao Xiaoyan Ruoyou Thoughts.
"Wow, the plot is getting more and more exciting!"
"..."
Just as everyone was gossiping, they heard an obviously angry and unwilling cat meowing in the distance.
"Oops!"
Obviously, Xiao Huang is here.
The drama from last time seems to be happening again.
Du Jiajia was immersed in the communication with the little white cat and did not notice it for a while, but the white cat was far more sensitive than humans. At this time, she hurriedly withdrew her claws and shrank aside.
Xiao Huang was probably the dominant one in the family, and all the brothers and sisters were a little afraid of him. At this time, he came over majestically, overwhelming the white cat in terms of momentum.
But don't wait for it to rush over.
Du Jiajia stretched out her arms to stop the white cat.
"Xiao Huang, don't bully it!"
Du Jiajia did not hesitate like last time and blocked Xiao Huang domineeringly.
With her current size, sandwiched between two kittens, it was not even a stumbling block. However, Xiao Huang was obviously restrained by her. She braked suddenly, but due to inertia, she could not stand. Gululu He rolled on the ground several times and skillfully avoided Du Jiajia.
After getting up, Xiao Huang still stared at the white cat angrily, and even made a few threatening noises, but he still didn't dare to look at Du Jiajia.
But the white cat only dared to huddle in the corner from beginning to end, not daring to raise its head.
Du Jiajia didn't know why, but she was more confident than ever.
"Don't scare it!"
"Sit down!"
"Yes, let's talk to you if you have something to say."
"You are siblings, why are you fighting?"
"..."
Sounds of reprimand came from Du Jiajia's mouth. When he came out, everyone in the room was stunned.
However, the two cats seemed to be able to understand. Xiao Huang really restrained himself a lot, but was still a little unconvinced. From time to time, he wanted to scare the white cat. The white cat probably felt that he had a backer and was no longer as shy as at first. He was afraid of feet, but still only dared to hide behind Du Jiajia.
"Sisters and sisters." Feng Xiaoyu looked strange, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Can they live in peace?"
"That depends on Du Jiajia's ability."
"If you can take all the kittens in the litter as your own..."
"Then the mother cat is not going to fight Du Jiajia to death?" "
It can even be big. Cats together..."
"You are so evil."
"I mean let's fight the landlords together. What are you thinking?"
"Does your cat know how to fight the landlords?"
"..."
While everyone was talking, Du Jiajia's side It's going well.
Xiao Huang was still a little unconvinced, but he didn't dare to have any emotions towards Du Jiajia.
A small human being stood between two cats that were as big as mountains, with their hands on their hips and scolding each other. This scene was as magical as it could be.
to the end.
Du Jiajia concluded her speech: "Okay, we will still be good friends from now on, no, good brothers, no, good siblings, we must love each other, come and shake hands." Amid the laughter of everyone in the room, two cats,
one yellow and one white , as expected, they each stretched out their paws to touch each other, but they were separated at the first touch.
Xiao Huang was no longer angry and seemed to have accepted this fact, but he still looked domineering towards the white cat.
obviously.
Even if a third party interferes, it will still be the main palace.
