Chapter 23 Chapter 23 First Guidance

The next day, she was waiting in the silent room early. The green indicator light flashed, and a projection of a sentry appeared on the table. It matched the photo on the software. It was the patrol member she had seen that day.

Carl, grade A-, blond hair and blue eyes, with a Ginkgo spirit. What is striking is that he is already twenty-eight years old. According to the superiors, he is still quite young. Benefiting from their spirits, they have a more stable spiritual sea and a slower aging rate, and on average live twenty-five years longer than other Sentinels.

Indeed, when she saw him that day, she thought he was a young guy, looking a little immature, but she didn't expect that he was already in his thirties.

What a magical world! She looked at the small mushroom lying in the ceramic pot on the table like a potted plant, wondering what kind of help it would bring to her. Fungi are also very magical creatures, right?

He arrived ten minutes early and was waiting outside the door, where a guard was standing guard not far away. She had been prepared for a long time and didn't intend to wait until the appointed time, so she opened the door and let him in.

"Hello, Carl, nice to see you again."

He was not wearing a white helmet today. Like an ordinary sentry, he was wearing tight-fitting clothes that revealed his figure. The collar around his neck had a green light flashing on the side, indicating that he was in good spirits.

The double doors closed, and she nervously led him to a chair and sat him down.

"First of all, I want to thank you and Captain Nancy."

Carl: "Miss Guide, this is the captain's order, but it's also my own initiative. I'm very honored to have this opportunity."

She was a little curious, "Your mental state is stable, so you don't need much mental counseling."

After a brief thought, he said, "Most of the time, it's like this. We don't usually go out on field missions, so we're not easily affected by external factors like temperature, humidity, noise, and bright light. It's precisely because we're relatively stable, the alienation process is slow, and it's easy to detect that we're chosen for the patrol team."

"Are all the members of your team Ginkgo?" She remembered the captain's business card. "It seems that our guide Nancy is also one of them."

"No, there are many other animals and plants."

"Okay," she stood up, "let's get started."

She tried calling it through the air, and it successfully received the message, crawling out of the soil and jumping towards her, covered in mud along the way. She helplessly held her forehead and turned to see a miniature tree standing on the table. She said regretfully, "I'll go wash it."

"It's okay, Guide Shanshan, can I call you that?"

She nodded, and he had a proper smile on his face, completely different from the stiff smile he had that day.

Carl: "It likes soil, too. Maybe they can stay in the soil together."

Is this possible?

She nodded in surprise, turned around and picked up the flowerpot, holding its fungus and placing it on it. The ginkgo tree extended its roots, moved itself into the flowerpot, and shrank in size again.

Under the golden crown of a tall tree, in a cool shade, a pink and white mushroom squatted. As for the entangled roots under the soil, she could not see them. She thought to herself that she would buy a transparent glass flowerpot next time.

The man sitting opposite her suddenly groaned, lowered his hands from the table, and clasped them in front of his waist. She looked at him puzzledly, "Uh, are you okay?"

She knew that her spirit body could eat metal and might even be a bit cruel. "Did it hurt you?" This was a bit contrary to Tian Gang. Even if the plant type was gentle, it was not easy to bully.

Carl smiled and shook his head, “I’m fine.”

It's good that you're okay. Before, she had been counseling by touching the spirit body herself. Now that she has the little mushroom, it seems that she can also do nothing. However, out of curiosity about the beautiful tree, she still moved closer and watched aggressively.

Xu Shanshan: "Can I touch it?"

"certainly."

It reminded her of the ginkgo tree in the school playground when she was in elementary school. It was half a meter in diameter, and in autumn, its fallen leaves would cover the ground. Running her fingers along the trunk, she could feel the distinctive rough bark, and even when she was narrowed down, she could still feel the grooves.

Further up were forked branches, from thick to thin. Soon the golden leaves fell off, and green leaves and wheat-like male cones grew again. When she wanted to touch it, the leaves rustled. She realized that it might be a sensitive area, so she withdrew her hand and turned her gaze to her spiritual body.

It seemed like she had nothing to do with it. Since the two spirits were getting along so well, she turned her attention back to the sentry in front of her, only to find that his face and even his ears were red.

"Miss Guide," sweat began to seep out of his forehead and he opened his mouth with difficulty, as if he had encountered something very bad, which made her a little nervous. She stood up and wanted to ring the bell, but this was not the right thing to do.

A patient died in my ward on my first day at work. I don't want this to happen.

Before she could stand up, her hand was grabbed. The other person's hand was shaking and seemed to have no strength. She exerted a little force and the other person could not hold it. "Please don't leave."

Even at this time, he was still very restrained. She thought that this might be a normal phenomenon in the treatment process. Some sentinels would be more excited during the mental connection, but he had never been like this before.

She approached with confusion and sat down on the armrest of the single sofa. The man was trembling all over, his head tilted up, his eyes closed, but he would occasionally lift his eyelids slightly, his mouth open but his teeth clenched, occasionally he would gasp, and it was hard to tell whether he was in pain or pleasure.

She didn't dare touch him. She saw that his neck was glowing yellow, which was within the normal range. But she didn't know that this was actually very abnormal. For them, this kind of situation was rare. He was definitely a low-risk type. Sentinels with orange light could not enter the patrol team.

This proves that the other party's mental fluctuations are actually very large, that is to say, the person's spiritual sea is suffering from a strong invasion.

Her spirit body was deeply guiding herself. Logically, this would only be a superficial guidance, or even just comforting. For him, the rest would be digested slowly.

But it does not seem to be satisfied with this. The hyphae cover the roots of the trees in the soil and are entangled with them. Even if the other party sticks to the bottom of the pot to hide, the hyphae will chase them and forcefully transfer pollution from them, never satisfied.

A mark was nailed into the spiritual sea, and a rain of spores scattered under the umbrella, but no one noticed.

The poor man subconsciously wanted to get closer to her, but he avoided her like a snake or scorpion. She subconsciously retracted her hand, but thinking of her cousin's advice, he restrained himself and withdrew his hand, clasping it tightly against his chest. He tried his best to hold back the tears, closing his eyes tightly until they came out.

The ginkgo tree continued to grow until it broke through the ceramic wall of the flowerpot. It became thicker and thicker, and the short mushrooms gradually disappeared under it. Its whole body gradually turned black. Xu Shanshan noticed this and remembered what her superior said, that her spiritual body could absorb pollution and might be doing this at this moment.

"Will it make you feel better if I hold your hand?"

"Yeah," the other party's voice was very soft, and he nodded imperceptibly.

After she understood, she reached out without hesitation. The man's fingers raised up, but missed. She clasped her other hand, rested her knees on the sofa cushion between her legs, and clasped her other hand's fingers together. She buried her whole body in his neck. Fortunately, the sofa was very stable, and the two of them fell on it without any signs of tipping over.

Finally feeling the warm contact and the sweet breath he had longed for, Carl opened his mouth and took a deep breath. His head lowered and rested on her shoulder, his mouth open, his teeth pressed against her collarbone.

Xu Shanshan was also very nervous. She looked down at the other person's collar. It was orange, flashed orange-red, and then turned orange again. Fortunately, she had given it her all for this job.

"Bite gently, or I'll go to the hospital and you'll go to court."

Unfortunately, he was destined not to hear her words. Just controlling his body exhausted all his strength. He opened his mouth, and pressed his tall nose bridge against the place where the watermark was left just now, his cheek pressed against it. He never opened his eyes, but just sniffed with his nose.

She felt beads of sweat running from his forehead, along the bridge of his nose, to her chest, then dripping down her coat, down her arms, and finally between their clasped wrists.

The spirit caused the trouble, and she had to clean up the mess.

Seeing that she had given someone a deep counseling session and left a mental scar, she couldn't wash it away even if she told others about it. Who would believe that you were so mean to others the first time and you still want to turn your back on them?

She began to mechanically imitate the words in the book, "Don't worry, don't be afraid, I'm here, I will always be with you."

"Come on, relax..."

The two of them got closer and closer, so that in the end she was completely stuck to each other, so that when the man's rosy lips touched hers, she was smack in the mouth before she could react. He was still rubbing against her. Okay, she looked hatefully at the little mushroom hiding behind the tree trunk, without any shadow to be seen. Just wait, I'll teach you a lesson later.

She loosened her left hand, but he was unwilling. He raised his arm and she climbed up with it until her hand clasped the back of his head and her moist and soft lips kissed him. The satisfaction made him give up struggling and he hugged her back, making the two of them stick closer.

There was a sound of water splashing and lips and tongue stirring.

It was terrible, she thought. He was already unconscious, but his tongue was still moving. As if he was dissatisfied with her daze, he gently bit the tip of her tongue.

The man kept his eyes closed. When she looked at his face, she felt like she was taking advantage of him. But when she thought about how old he was, it was not certain who would get the upper hand. Her lust was aroused, and she attacked the man directly.

I don’t know how much time passed, but it must have exceeded the appointment time.

She was so absorbed in the kiss that she closed her eyes. When she opened them, she found that he had already opened his eyes, looking at her wetly. Xu Shanshan wanted to move away feeling a little embarrassed, but was held in his arms. This time, he was much more passionate and proactive than when they first met.

She thought about explaining it, but then felt that it was not a good idea. After all, a sentinel who had just been through the guidance was very dependent on the guide, let alone the deep guidance. Although she had awakened her spiritual body, she still could not see the spiritual power and did not know what the little mushroom had done in the spiritual sea.

But as long as you see its black body, you can roughly guess what it is.

“Karl…”

"Hmm?" The man's voice was like stringy honey.

She adjusted her position in his arms so that she could raise her hand to check the time. It was okay, as this was her only appointment in the morning. "Okay, I don't have anything else to do. You can hold me if you want."

The man wanted to bury his head in her shoulder again, but before he got close, the back of her head was suddenly pressed down, and her slender fingers were pressed against her forehead and buried in the man's chest. Her vision was dark, and a loud sharp noise came from behind her, accompanied by the shuddering sound of glass scratching.

At the same time, the ginkgo tree suddenly grew larger, reaching the ceiling and completely wrapping around the entire glass. When she looked again, there was no crack left.

"What happened?" With her back to the window, she couldn't see what happened. She didn't expect that the White Tower could be attacked, which really scared her.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it."

It was a black kite, also known as an eagle, and it looked like the spirit of a sentry. It squatted beside the air conditioner outside and stared at them for a long time. Flying near the tower during the day was against regulations, and it even dared to try to attack the guide who was working.

"Let me see, okay?"

Through his spiritual body, he saw that the people who were trying to capture it had arrived. It was spinning in the air under attack, so it should be fine. He put away the branches and leaves.

So Xu Shanshan saw an eagle falling from a high altitude. It was hit by a medium-sized bird of prey swooping down from a high altitude. The other bird was extremely fast and she could hardly see its figure. The eagle was still trying to fly towards here. Its wingspan was so large that it could cover the entire wall, casting a shadow on her face. Only when she got closer did she discover its sharp beak and two huge, sharp claws.

There was a ring on its right foot, but it felt familiar to her. She couldn't remember where she had seen it before. Seeing her stand up curiously, Carl hugged her from behind.

"Don't go over there."

The people in the air combat group are going crazy, they will handle it internally.

White feathers spread out, one of which landed in front of her window. Once again, she saw the peregrine falcon swooping down from the sky, once again passing through the eagle's body like a flash of lightning. This time, it completely fell like a windmill, spinning in full view of everyone.

After a while, there was a sound of something falling to the ground.

“Please let go,” she looked at Karl. Although the two had had a deep communication, they were only two people who had met each other twice after all. She walked forward and picked up the white feather on the ground. It seemed that there was also one in the dormitory.

After thinking it over, she turned back and saw the man still standing there, staring into her eyes and holding the neck feather. Why didn't he leave?

Xu Shanshan: "Hello, the counseling is over. If there is nothing else..."

Carl was young and inexperienced after all, so he nodded with a red face and said nothing. He just had to listen to the guide and take his spirit body back, whether it was willing or not.

The man turned to leave, and she suddenly remembered something, "Wait a minute, leave me your contact information."

"Because my spiritual body is quite special, if you feel uncomfortable in the future, please contact me in time, okay?"

"good."

The two left their contact information with each other. He walked to the door and looked back, so she stretched out her hand and waved, and he finally left.

Xu Shanshan took a deep breath. Finally, she had time to teach this guy a lesson.

She put the feather into her handbag, rolled up her sleeves, and walked to the table. She wanted to give it a good scolding, but she didn't expect that she didn't need to do it herself. The whole body of the other party was already dead, lying there like a corpse.

"Hey, stop playing dead." He poked it with his hand, and the mushroom flesh bounced back. Normally, he was not allowed to touch this place.

"Are you full?" He poked her again, but no response. "Are you satisfied with your meal? Are you dizzy from eating?" Still no response.

She was a little helpless about this guy. Usually, weren't the spirits helping their masters? Why was it the other way around with her? This starving ghost ate himself to the point of passing out, as if he hadn't had a full meal.

Faced with the mess on the floor, if it weren't for the robot vacuum, she really wanted to hang it up and beat it with a rope to teach it a lesson. It was not a big thing, but it caused such a big trouble.

The influence of deep counseling cannot be eliminated. When the time comes, people will run around with her mental imprint on them. Can she just be irresponsible and stay out of it?

She was a good person who didn't rely much on the guide, but she came to help her, but ended up becoming her dog. Is that appropriate?

He put the guy in the water to soak, dried him, and put him back into the sea of ​​​​mind. Then he called the robot to clean up the silent room and changed his clothes.

She informed her superiors of the situation and said she was feeling a bit low, fearing it was due to the contamination from the food it had eaten. With their approval, she canceled the afternoon activities, prepared to go back and catch up on some sleep, and then move to the training camp after dinner.

Yes, she will continue to attend training camp.

I returned to the dormitory, climbed onto the bed, and fell asleep almost immediately, so I missed the messages sent by others.
