$954, cellar (1/2)
Su Wu looked up at Zhang Shuangguo who was sitting across the small square table and handed his work card back: "What's going on?"
Zhang Shuangguo did not answer immediately, but handed his work card back to the sturdy man and asked him: "Brother, take a look. What's the difference between me on the work card and me in front of you?"
The sturdy man took the work card.
He looked at the photo on the work card, and then looked at Zhang Shuangguo on the other side of the table.
He looked blankly and said: "There's no difference?
Aren't they the same?
At most, it looks uglier in the work photo."
"..."
Zhang Shuangguo took the work card back from the sturdy man and turned to look at Su Wu. He didn't say anything.
Su Wu had already understood the true meaning. He looked at the burly man beside him, and then at the work badge that Zhang Shuangguo had hung on his chest again, and said, "If there is nothing wrong with the photo on this work badge, then the 'you' I see is not the same as the you others see.
Is that right?"
"Yes." Zhang Shuangguo nodded, "The me that others see is exactly the same as the person in the photo on the work badge.
But this is not the real me, this is a face assigned to me by the winery.
Only you, my benefactor, returned my memory and drank my private collection of Dongsheng wine - so the me in your eyes looks exactly the same as the me in reality.
You can also see the true faces of those who got their lost clues from you.
That's why I said that you are the common connection of many people on the wall like me!"
"You can't tell each other about your past, because the 'Grand Master Selection' is held every three years, and you are wary of each other. In addition, each of you is assigned a new face by the winery. All these circumstances add up to the fact that two people who should be close relatives are 'not familiar with each other even if they meet'.
If you are strangers, it will be a bit sad, but it will end here.
However, in the 'Grand Master Selection' held every three years, the winery will temporarily let you return to your original appearance and let you see those familiar names. At the same time, you will also vote for other people to become the new Grand Master.
If this person who is voted out is the person you used to be most familiar with, then it is really tragic..." Su Wu sighed, and suddenly felt that the Dongsheng Winery itself was also quite terrifying and vicious.
Is there something strange hidden in this winery?
The information Zhang Shuangguo revealed to him had made him realize that he would most likely not be able to find any clues about Jiang Yingying's whereabouts from Dongsheng Winery.
...
Two hours later.
In the huge Gaocang House, many Dongsheng Winery employees wearing the same clothes gathered here.
They surrounded a huge chasm that ran from south to north and was more than ten miles long.
At both ends of the bottomless chasm built with bricks and stones, there were stone steps extending downward. The aroma of fermented food had been attached to the stone walls of the chasm for years. The chasm was filled with the aroma left by the fermentation of countless koji, which turned that aroma into a more mellow and elegant smell.
At this time, the koji food in the entire chasm had been emptied.
The employees stood in front of the cellar and could not see the bottom of the cellar at all.
A cordon separated Su Wu, the strong man and the winery employees like Zhang Shuangguo. He looked at the crowded Gaocangwu and found many "familiar people" among them.
The "familiar people" also found him standing outside the cordon.
Xiong Jun, who was wearing a work uniform, saw Su Wu standing outside the cordon and walked over with excited eyes: "Director Su!
I didn't expect to see you here. Who are you——"
Su Wu made a silent gesture to Xiong Jun and said with a smile: "Don't pay attention to me.
You just do your thing first.
We'll talk after the matter is over."
"Okay! Okay!"
Xiong Jun got Su Wu's eye signal and immediately reacted. After nodding, he walked to the cellar and joined the crowd wearing the same work clothes as him.
After that, many people saw Su Wu one after another and ran over to greet him.
More and more employees gathered in the warehouse.
The subtle conversations between the many people shook the purlins and rafters on the roof, which were as thick as the beams of ordinary houses, and shook off the dust.
About half an hour passed like this, and with the ringing of a bell, the winery employees who were still whispering a moment ago suddenly became quiet after the bell.
It seemed that some kind of power forced them to shut up.
When Su Wu heard the bell, his expression became a little more serious.
Zhang Shuangguo told him that after the first bell rang, all employees were forced to enter the state of "quiet thinking", without any thoughts in their minds. After a short period of three minutes, there would be three consecutive bells.
After the three bells rang, the names and true faces of the employees of each winery would appear in the corresponding area, and they would need to identify the "cellar master" among them.
——This kind of final election is not a "voting system".
Instead, when an employee sees a familiar name and face, he or she will feel intense emotions. The unknown power hidden in the winery will directly choose that person for him or her!
Unless he or she has a strong ability to control emotions, he or she will not show any emotions when seeing the face and name of an old friend.
Then his or her vote can be considered invalid.
But if you walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet?
Perhaps some winery employees do have extremely high emotional control abilities, but after each runoff, they lose recognition of their colleagues around them and have to live with the faces assigned by the winery - every three years. In a final election cycle, their hidden emotions continue to accumulate. Eventually, when they see the face and name of an old friend, their emotions burst and they can no longer control it!
This kind of extremely strong emotional breakdown can easily be selected by the unnamed power of the winery, and the person directly targeted by his emotions will be selected as the 'Cellar Master'. In the end, even this emotionally broken person may directly surrender. Chi died for love!
The entire Dongsheng Winery is devouring the emotions of its employees and brewing the best wine based on their emotions!
when!
when!
when--
At this time, three bells rang intermittently.
The third bell rings.
The winery employees gathered beside the cellar that was more than ten miles long were forced to turn their heads and cast their eyes on the cellar that they were surrounded by!
Faces appeared on the cellar bricks covered with traces of wine yeast and time!
Next to every face, there is a corresponding name!
These layers of human faces are laid out from the top to hundreds of meters deep - even so, they are not laid out to the deepest part of the pit chasm!
When the old man with long braids and goatee saw the name on a certain cellar brick, his originally numb and calm face suddenly started to tremble uncontrollably. With tears streaming down his face, he looked away from that cellar brick for a moment and looked at Looking at the crowd on the other side of the chasm—perhaps it was destiny, or perhaps it was the winery's deliberate arrangement—he raised his eyes and found the old friend with a familiar face in the crowd opposite!
"Lian Cui!"
"master!"
The old woman opposite also turned her attention to the old man with the goatee!
The two looked at each other.
The former suddenly jumped into the chasm of the pit!
——At this moment, after experiencing a brief silence, more than ten winery employees made the same choice as the old man with the goatee. They jumped into the chasm first and gave up their voting rights in order to Save the life of my old friend!
At that moment, the emotions they felt when meeting their old friends were extremely strong, far beyond anything they had ever experienced before.
Such strong emotions made them dare not bet on whether their old friend would eventually be chosen to become the Grand Master of the cellar pool, so they chose to give up on their own initiative!
More than ten people made the same choice at the same time.
The faces and names on more than a dozen cellar bricks suddenly peeled off and faded away.
Howls arose from the crowd.
The joy of meeting old friends, the sadness of farewell before death, and the melancholy caused by the next 'forgetting' that is so close, linger in the entire warehouse, and such strong emotions turned into stronger and mellow wine here. Fragrant, as soon as the strong man smelled the aroma of wine, his figure suddenly swayed - he was drunk on the spot, with tears streaming from his eyes!
Su Wu remained motionless and his face remained calm under the impact of the rich and powerful aroma of wine.
He looked at the crowd and heard Zhang Shuangguo's voice coming from the crowd: "Everyone, listen to me!
As long as everyone recites the name of "Su Wu" silently in their hearts, they can restrain their emotions!
Just recite the name ‘Su Wu’ silently! "
Zhang Shuangguo’s words came to light!
In the high warehouse, the emotions that some people in the crowd had not yet overflowed were suddenly interrupted - these winery employees who passively and suddenly restrained their emotions were all new employees recruited by Dongsheng Winery. They and Su We met in the afternoon, and after hearing what Zhang Shuangguo said, we did as he said without much hesitation!
They all chanted Su Wu's name silently!
Su Wu's mind was emptied for a moment, and with these consciousnesses directed at him, he was emptied together!
In the chasm of the cellar, the names and faces that appeared on the cellar bricks all trembled. In the center of the many trembling cellar bricks, many faces were suddenly cleared in an instant, and two bloody handwritings appeared - —'Su Wu'!
As soon as those two handwritings appeared, a strong and mysterious rhyme burst out from the deepest part of the cellar!
The faces on the cellar bricks suddenly opened their mouths and called out their respective names!
"comprehensive!"
"Wang Junwang!"
"Zhen Qin!"
…
Every winery employee whose name was called burst out with strong emotions and rushed towards the chasm and cellar!
From the deepest part of the chasm pit, accompanied by bursts of tearing sounds that made people feel sour, a blue-black coffin emerged from the deepest part of the pit - the coffin was slowly lifted upwards, and underneath the coffin, something appeared. A cross-shaped crack appeared!
Outside the crack, a scarlet intestine covered with sores slowly squirmed!
In the sore holes all over the intestines, green pus swirled, and in the vortex, scarlet eyes emerged, and the eyes of each eye looked from outside the cracks into the cracks!
