Ren Xiaosu did not know what this so-called psychological counseling was. He only felt that the Wang Clan was being too overbearing.
If there were really people in this world who did not like what they were good at, Ren Xiaosu felt it was only natural. For example, Qing Zhen often said that he did not like war, but he was good at resolving it. For example, Zhang Baogen was a supernatural being, but he felt that he should stay in the orphanage and entertain the children.
Even if Zhang Baogen's saliva bubbles had been developed to be extremely powerful, and even if Zhang Baogen's saliva bubbles tasted like chives, everyone had their own choices.
Alright, perhaps such choices and preferences were not that important in the Wang Clan's stronghold.
But what was the subtext of the psychological counseling sessions for those people? "If you don't like your current job, that's because there's something wrong with your mentality, so you need psychological counseling."
The subtext was, "You're wrong, so I'm going to use psychological counseling to help you get back on track."
Ren Xiaosu could not agree with this method. If someone said to him, "Ren Xiaosu, what you're best at is killing people, you should help everyone kill people."
Ren Xiaosu would definitely beat the crap out of that person's head.
Moreover, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt that "psychological counseling" had suddenly become a very shady term in Stronghold 61. He found this a little hard to accept.
He could even imagine that if a very stubborn person suddenly appeared in this stronghold and refused to do the work assigned to him by the artificial intelligence, that person would probably face endless "psychological counseling."
This feeling was too horrifying.
It was no wonder the stronghold residents would subconsciously lower their heads when they saw the Wang Clan's vehicle.
Ren Xiaosu did not comment on this matter anymore. He was not a savior, nor did he have any better or more reasonable suggestions. He just wanted to quickly complete the agreement and leave.
After driving the off-road vehicle for nearly 40 minutes, Ren Xiaosu silently outlined the route in his mind.
When he came here with Zhou Yingxue, he had already memorized the map of Stronghold 61. Although he did not have a photographic memory like Wang Yun, he could still get the general idea right.
At this moment, the female celebrity, Li Ran, who was walking out of a villa on the side of the road, was stunned when she saw the off-road vehicle driving past her.
The new assistant next to her asked, "What's wrong, Ranran?"
Li Ran looked in the direction of the off-road vehicle. "I think I saw someone familiar."
Li Ran used to live in Stronghold 61. During the creeper vine disaster, she was rescued by Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue. After the stronghold was rebuilt, she returned. After all, this was where she grew up, so she had a certain level of attachment to it.
Now that Li Ran saw Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin in the Wang Clan's car, she felt her heart ache for some reason.
In the past, she had looked down on Ren Xiaosu, but later on, she realized that she could not enter the world that he lived in.
The assistant turned to look at Li Ran. "Is it just an acquaintance?"
"Mhm." Li Ran adjusted her emotions and replied, "Let's go and join the event."
The assistant muttered to himself. Looking at Li Ran's disappointed expression, it was obvious that she was not an ordinary acquaintance.
The off-road vehicle drove past a long street and stopped on a quiet one. After Wang Run got out of the vehicle, he said to Ren Xiaosu, "These two courtyards have been arranged for the two of you. The Wang Clan specially uses them to receive VIPs."
Ren Xiaosu looked at the two courtyards. They were not big, but they were quiet and elegant.
However, he felt that something was wrong. "Something's not right!"
Wang Run was stunned. "What's not right?"
"Why are there two courtyards?" Ren Xiaosu said earnestly, "You see, it's enough for the two of us to stay in one courtyard. It's not good for us to be guests and take up the resources you use to receive VIPs. Isn't that a waste? No, no, go back and tell the higher-ups that the two of us can stay together. "
Wang Run was stunned for a moment and did not know how to answer. However, he saw Yang Xiaojin push open the door to her courtyard and walk in. As she walked, she said disdainfully, "You make it sound like you dare to do anything."
Yang Xiaojin knew Ren Xiaosu too well. Did she not know how cowardly he was in the wilderness? Yet he still made a request after coming all the way here.
As Ren Xiaosu stood on the street in a daze, Wang Run said, "Please get some rest first. I'll come back and pick you up to the boss's residence during the banquet."
With that, Wang Run slipped away.
Ren Xiaosu stood where he was and thought about how Yang Xiaojin's aunt, Yang Anjing, had arranged for the two courtyards.
What kind of person was this? There were so many people out there who did not have a fixed residence, yet he was wasting the stronghold's resources like this. This would make him feel uneasy!
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu walked over to Yang Xiaojin's courtyard and wanted to push the door open to enter. However, he realized Yang Xiaojin had already locked the door from the inside.
Ren Xiaosu's face darkened. "Why did you lock the door? Are you a sore loser?!"
Inside, Yang Xiaojin said, "Not bad, you've made some progress today. You know how to open the door."
Then she entered the house with a smile. She did not even intend to open the door for Ren Xiaosu.
But just as Ren Xiaosu was about to enter his courtyard dejectedly, a familiar voice rang out from the other side. "Ren Xiaosu?"
Ren Xiaosu turned around and was surprised to see Jiang Xu walking out of another courtyard with a few reporters beside him. He asked in confusion, "Why are you here at Stronghold 61 too?"
Jiang Xu smiled. "I'm here to see how the Wang Clan's artificial intelligence is doing and also to teach a class here. I was just getting bored when you showed up. But why are you here?"
"That's a long story." Ren Xiaosu sighed and said, "I promised someone to do three things within my power."
…
At this moment, in the northern grasslands, Yan Liuyuan led Hassan, Bulan Zir, Kirghiz Yan, and the others back to the imperial court. But as soon as they arrived, they realized the women, children, and elderly in the tribe all looked a little flustered.
Yan Liuyuan's voice rang out from under his black visor. "What's going on? What happened?"
Sister Xiaoyu came out of the tent to welcome Yan Liuyuan. She first checked to see if Yan Liuyuan was injured before saying, "I told you that a new salt pool was discovered dozens of kilometers away. But someone went there to dig for salt two days ago and never came back. I sent some of your warriors to check it out, but they only brought back a few corpses."
Yan Liuyuan was stunned. "Was it done by the wolves?"
"No." Sister Xiaoyu shook her head. "It was a knife wound. The right ear of the corpse was also cut off."
Yan Liuyuan suddenly looked at Bulan Zir. "Are there any other tribes in the grasslands?"
Bulan Zir shook his head. "No, they're all here. Something like this happened a few years ago, but it happened further north. Later on, it got too cold there, so no one went there to live. There's always been a legend in the grasslands that the northern part of the grasslands is not the grasslands. There are actually still some humans living in that extremely cold place, but no one has ever seen them before. Or rather, those who have seen them are all dead. "
Yan Liuyuan looked north. In the minds of many Central Plains people, the end of the north was the grasslands, and the enemies in the grasslands were nomads like them.
But many people subconsciously overlooked one thing: North of the grasslands was still the north.
