Chapter 402: Strange Place
It's still early.
It's just past ten o'clock.
If the convoy is running at full capacity, it will be easy to walk thousands of kilometers in more than ten hours in the case of traffic jams.
Of course, traffic jams are a different story.
"Okay, just do as you say!" Qin Yao had no objection to this.
There is no airport in the Chidi area.
The nearest airport to Chidi is hundreds of kilometers away.
Even if you fly there, you have to wait a lot of time.
Coming and going, all the time is spent on the road.
On the contrary, it is better to drive over directly to save trouble, and there is no need to prepare anything superfluous, which is also the main reason why Qin Yao did not take a plane and directly asked Wu Tian to prepare the car in advance.
After all, this time to go to Chidi, the scope is too wide.
Relying on Qin Yao alone to find it is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack,
The more people there are, the more efficient they are at doing things, and it is impossible for Qin Yao to wait for the large army to arrive before setting off, which will only delay more time.
...
The convoy left the city and quickly headed for the highway.
The day went well.
There was no traffic jam along the way.
After arriving in Fenglin Town, it was not much different from the time Xiang Ran expected, and it was just past a quarter past eight.
Fenglin Town is already subordinate to Guanwai.
There is no hustle and bustle of big cities, just a strong exotic atmosphere.
The whole town is on the edge of the vast desert, and as far as the eye can see, it is full of yellow sand, which is quite barren and desolate.
There aren't many people in the town either.
It is definitely not as lively as the town in Qin Yao's hometown, but it is better to be quiet.
When Qin Yao and his party arrived here, the night market in the town had basically come to an end, and there were no extra pedestrians wandering the streets, and the whole town was quiet, feeling very lonely.
"Mr. Qin, tonight we will go to the hotel in front of us to repair for the night, replenish the supplies, and recuperate our spirits, and we will set off early tomorrow morning!" Xiang Ran was responsible for guiding the driver, and the convoy galloped past.
The so-called inn is a guest house in the town.
The environment is okay, although it is not as good as a star-rated hotel, but it is better than cleanliness and hygiene, and Qin Yao doesn't care about it.
This guest house is already the largest in a radius of several kilometers.
And the facilities are very perfect, and the reception is also a travel friend from all over the world, and it is very convenient to supplement the supplies or something.
Xiang Ran is a frequent visitor to this area, and he is very familiar with the owner of the inn.
As early as when he was on the road, Xiang Ran had already informed the boss to charter the entire hotel, so when Qin Yao and the others came over, there were no other extra passengers in the entire hotel except for their group.
That's the benefit of having money.
There's nothing money can't do.
If there is, it can only prove that the money is not in place.
Chartering the entire hotel is just a drizzle for Qin Yao, and it is nothing at all.
The point is that there are too many of them.
Including the bodyguards who have already guided, there are almost sixty people.
With such a large group, everything must be arranged in advance, otherwise they will have to sleep on the streets.
"This must be Mr. Qin, he really has an extraordinary bearing, welcome Mr. Qin to the Humble House, please don't mind if there is a place where the hospitality is not good!" The owner of the inn took the initiative to come out to greet him.
He has been running a hotel in this town for decades.
Those who have been exposed to SS.
But he has never seen such an arrogant guest as Qin Yao.
Not to mention all the rooms, the key is that the shot is extremely arrogant, and the consumption of a night of the group is enough to cover his turnover for a week, and the boss is happy in his heart.
"I'm in trouble!" Qin Yao shook hands with the boss, which was regarded as a greeting.
The boss is a good person, seeing that Qin Yao came to make such a big move this time, he guessed that Qin Yao might not be an ordinary tourist, he must have come with other purposes, and his mind suddenly became active.
"Mr. Qin is here for a trip this time?" the boss asked tentatively.
It is impossible for him to ask Qin Yao's true intentions as soon as he comes up, not only will this not achieve the goal, but will cause Qin Yao's disgust, the innkeeper has been in business for many years, and he still understands this reason.
"Sort of, does the boss have any good places to go?" Qin Yao nodded noncommittally, he also wanted to inquire more.
The innkeeper is a local, after all.
There are more travelers in contact with SS, and of course the news is much better than them.
"Out of Fenglin Town, it is a vast desert, or it is a no-man's land, if Mr. Qin is really here to travel, just go to the desert to see different scenery, there is really no special place worth recommending!" the boss responded truthfully.
And that's the truth.
Out of Windforest Town, there is a vast desert as far as the eye can see.
As far as the eye can see, it is all yellow sand.
He is a local, he has lived here since he was a child, and he is even about to vomit when he sees the yellow sand.
Only outsiders like Qin Yao, who have money and leisure, come here to join in the fun.
The locals have no sense of these things.
At the same time, the desert is an extremely dangerous area, full of too many uncertainties.
It's good to go in, whether you can come out alive has to be said, the boss also saw that Qin Yao was more kind and friendly, so he talked to him so much, so he deliberately reminded Qin Yao of something, and he didn't want to watch Qin Yao risk his life.
"Thanks for the kind reminder, I'll take people around the area, it's really nothing to see, and it's not too late for me to go home!" Qin Yao could hear the good words, and said with regret.
There is no intention of continuing to ask.
After all, Qin Yao's purpose for coming to Chidi this time is not very clear, and of course it is not easy to reveal it to outsiders.
He couldn't just ask the boss if there was an alien base nearby, right? If that were the case, the boss would definitely treat him as a fool.
It's also an alien base.
If there is really an alien base, it is Qin Yao's turn to find it? I'm afraid that it has long been controlled by the state, this joke is not funny at all.
"There is a magical place worth visiting, but there is something weird, without the guidance of locals, it is extremely easy to get lost, if Mr. Qin really wants to go and see, I can recommend a few tour guides who are familiar with the road to Mr. Qin!" The boss changed his words and asked tentatively.
There is so much foreshadowing in front of it, just to make this business.
Let Qin Yao down first, and then mention the business, wanting to capture the boss of the old Zong.
Qin Yao is not a fool either.
Of course, you can see what the hell the boss is doing.
These are also deliberately done by Qin Yao.
The purpose is to extract more useful information from the boss.
And in this confrontation, Qin Yao and the boss can be described as a win-win situation, the boss thinks that he has pinched Qin Yao's curiosity, but he doesn't know that he also unknowingly jumped into Qin Yao's trap, Qin Yao is obviously a step ahead.
"Tell me more!" Qin Yao raised his eyebrows, did not deliberately debunk it, and also showed a strong interest in it.
If the boss can really bring him some useful clues, why not if Qin Yao is wronged?
"Five hundred kilometers away from the town, there is an extremely mysterious area, and when night falls, many mysterious things happen there...", the innkeeper recounted.
Five hundred kilometers away, the core of the desert has not yet been reached, but it is not far from the core.
That area is different from the surrounding environment.
When night comes, there is always a strange sound that, according to the boss, resembles the roar of a beast or the howl of a wind, and does not have a specific form.
As the sound resounds, the area emits a variety of dazzling beams of light.
The beams of light are colorful, like fireworks.
It can be seen from afar, and it is very eye-catching.
This situation once also attracted the attention of the locals.
Someone else has done an in-depth investigation of the area, but they have not found any anomalies, which are no different from other areas, and there is no danger other than that.
Over time, that area became one of the most recognizable places in the desert.
Whenever there are out-of-town tourists who come to travel, the boss will recommend the area to them in different ways, and then provide guides to the tourists to earn a certain difference.
In the past few years, the boss has made a lot of money just by doing this business.
He saw that Qin Yao and his party were moving and they were all fully equipped, and they were all coming with a special purpose, and after going around in a big circle, the boss finally got to business.
"By the way, Mr. Qin, in addition, there are villagers who have picked up a certain number of meteorites in that area, if Mr. Qin wants to go, I can provide Mr. Qin with the most professional guide!" the boss continued, providing an extremely important clue.
"Meteorite!" Qin Yao's heart was shocked, and he became extremely excited.
Those phenomena described earlier cannot be explained.
Then the meteorite has a certain provenance.
There is a great possibility that that area is a certain base, and it may not be related to the mastermind behind the capture of Jiang Lai, but it is still worth visiting.
"Mr. Qin, I can prove what the boss said, I was fortunate enough to be to that place, that place is indeed very mysterious, if Mr. Qin has more time, he can go to that area to have a look!"
Xiang Ran is not only a professional field guide, but also an adventure enthusiast.
The innkeeper said that the place did exist.
He had been there before.
But I wasn't so lucky to find a meteorite or something.
Xiang Ran didn't deliberately help the innkeeper lie when he interjected at this time, as a professional guide, he still has this kind of professionalism.
The most important point is that Qin Yao's origin is really shocking, even the person in charge of the club can't afford to offend, and Xiang Ran will not let Qin Yao misunderstand because of some small profits.
On the one hand, Qin Yao didn't deliberately ask.
It wasn't until the innkeeper mentioned these things that Xiang Ran remembered this stubble and proposed such a bite.
