Chapter 220: Dark Hour (12)
The alternation of day and night was only a rare spectacle for those living in the Ancient Heavenly Court for hundreds of years, and this time was no exception.
However, as ordinary Heavenly Court people gradually spread to all corners of the Ancient Heavenly Court, this spectacle was gradually given different meanings, full of an indispensable sense of ritual in human life.
On this day, most of the places in the Ancient Heavenly Court will have a holiday.
People who have been busy for a long time either enjoy rare leisure at home, or take to the streets to celebrate, making the whole heavenly court full of festive and peaceful atmosphere.
All kinds of lights allow people to enjoy the novelty of the night while forgetting the horrors brought by the darkness.
At this moment when the alternation of day and night was approaching, countless people gathered in the square to look forward to the coming of the night, and silently counted down for it.
Five, four, three, two, one......
The shouts of millions of people resounded in the sky, and in the midst of this shout, a group of heavily armed men in black who were also silently counting down in their hearts began their actions.
The people in the square jumped and cheered, completely oblivious to the dark shadows that swept high in the sky as they counted down.
In this once-in-a-lifetime festival, even the children of many ancient clans and the investigators of the clan joint investigation team who stick to their respective posts will inevitably be a little distracted and smile when they hear the shouts that come from the outside world like a wave.
And at the moment when the countdown was over and the excitement of the crowd was at its highest, in the buildings, villas, and residential buildings that had never rested late at night, those heavily armed men in black smashed open the closed doors and windows, revealing the butcher's knives they had been planning for an unknown amount of time.
Qionghua Palace, Guanlan Tianque.
Similar to the countless Tianque that quietly arose in the Heavenly Court after the Age of the Gods, the Guanlan Tianque is a settlement area of ordinary Heavenly Court people that is completely inhabited and managed by the emerging clans and ordinary Heavenly Court people, similar to the ordinary Heavenly Court people who exist in the West New Town of the Tongming Palace.
However, it is also a gathering area for ordinary Heavenly Court people, and Guanlan Tianque is incomparable to Dianxi New Town in terms of popularity and scale in the Ancient Heavenly Court.
Because this is the headquarters of the Tianting Shixun Group, the largest communication company in the ancient Heavenly Court, and it is also the clan of the Guanyang clan, an emerging clan that is separated from the Shennong clan, one of the main veins of the Lieshan clan, and it is also the headquarters of the clan joint investigation team.
The existence of the Heavenly Court Shixun Group, the Guanyang Clan Land, and even the headquarters of the Clan Joint Investigation Team gave this ordinary Tianque a meaning and scale that was different from other ordinary Heavenly Court people's settlements, and also made it the primary target of some clans lurking in the shadows and plotting against them.
As usual, Jiang Liang, as the facility and equipment manager of Tianting Shixun Group, did not take a holiday because of the advent of day and night, but walked alone in the company's equipment room to check whether the communication equipment and receiving equipment that connected to other regions and maintained normal communication between regions were running smoothly as usual.
This is Jiang Liang's third year on the job.
As the youngest junior in the company, he will inevitably be oppressed by those seniors who have already started a family during the festive season, and stay in the company to take care of these treasures who are related to the daily communication of thousands of families.
Of course, Jiang Liang is not the only equipment administrator in the Shixun Industrial Park, which is known as the largest communication relay equipment group in Tianting, at the headquarters of the huge Shixun Group.
Even at the turn of day and night, there are still hundreds of people of all kinds active in the entire company headquarters in their proper positions.
In order to save unnecessary expenses, in addition to the red, red, green and green indicators that come with the equipment when it is running, there will be a section of lighting every tens of meters to illuminate the surrounding passage of more than ten meters.
Normally, the sun is shining in the heavenly court, so even if the number of lights in the area between the equipment is slightly small, it does not make people feel eerie.
But when the dark moment that has not been seen for a long time comes, even if Jiang Liang has not known how many times he has maintained and inspected these familiar and unfamiliar equipment in the three years he has been employed, and even if he can count the maintenance and coding of each row of units, he will still feel a chill down his spine when passing through these unit passages that cannot be taken care of by the section lights.
It's just that what he does is the work of an equipment administrator, and it is impossible for him to quit because it is only a dark night for three or five days, so even if he feels uncomfortable, Jiang Liang has no reason to stop his steps of inspecting whether the instruments in the equipment room are operating normally.
Humming a little song in his mouth, he was bold and carrying the yard hammer used in the inspection and maintenance equipment in his hand, and he had just walked out of one equipment room and walked to another equipment room not far away.
Didi......
Standing at the door to swipe the card to verify the identity sequence, Jiang Liang, who was waiting for the door of the equipment room to open, set his eyes on the brightly lit place in the distance.
It was an open-air plaza three or two kilometers away from the company's headquarters.
At this time, a tsunami of shouts erupted from the direction of the square, which was the complete arrival of the people in the countdown to the dark hour.
He glanced down at his personal terminal, and the time was exactly two seconds before Heavenly Court completely entered the night.
Shaking his head slightly, Jiang Liang withdrew his gaze into the distance, and then walked quickly into the door of the equipment room that had been opened.
I don't know if it's his illusion, Jiang Liang always felt that when he entered the equipment room, there was a slight "click" sound behind him.
Just thinking that the sound of the automatic closing of the door in the equipment room was similar, Jiang Liang didn't think too much about it.
The entrance to the equipment room was still bright, and the white light reflected the entire entrance hallway that resembled a cubicle as if it were a scene from a horror movie.
It's just that there is no market for horror movies in the heavenly court where gods have actually existed, so Jiang Liang didn't feel anything unusual in the compartment, but as if relieved, he began to check if there was any alarm triggering on the screen of the master control equipment in the compartment.
I don't know if it was the carelessness of the equipment manager on duty before the holiday or a little absent-mindedness before the holiday, there are three or five large information processing units responsible for information transfer in the equipment room, and the equipment coolant is about to run out to varying degrees.
Supplementing the coolant of the equipment is not a troublesome thing, but the corresponding panels are on the back of the unit, and Jiang Liang can only work in the dark with the lighting equipment in his mouth.
After a general glance at the information screen, it seemed that there was nothing else except for the lack of coolant in the equipment, so Jiang Liang continued to pick up the yard hammer placed on the equipment table on the side, and staggered towards the depths of the equipment room.
The entire equipment room was still quiet, only Jiang Liang's own footsteps echoed.
Muttering the numbers of the rows of equipment racks, Jiang Liang turned on the walkie-talkie and chatted with the laboring people who were also working overtime in the equipment room or in the company while looking roughly at whether the indicator lights of each row of instruments were in the designated position in the dark.
"I said that yesterday in the No. 929 equipment room in the area, which turtle grandson was on duty? This relay coolant is out of the meter, and I don't know how to go to Gasazi? The prison has to be black!" (no typos, all written with an accent)
"Di (Di) District? Di District was the work of Sister Da yesterday, people are in a hurry to go home and hug the baby, you can fill it up. ”
"Yes, yes, you don't know Sister Da's temperament, the baby is more important than anything, 929 is too late, I'm afraid I don't have to check it in detail. ”
The ones who spoke were Lao Tian and Tongxiang, who were checking next door to Jiang Liang.
Lao Tian said that he had been in the company for forty or fifty years, and I heard that there was a girl in the family who spent a lot of money in the field, and the other half left early.
And Tongxiang is Xiao Xinnen, who entered the company with Jiang Liang two years ago, and is a member of the passive overtime group, doing comfortable work in the security room investigation.
While arguing with Lao Tian Tongxiang, Jiang Liangxin was also a lot more relaxed, and soon walked to the thirty-fourth column in the west area of the 929 equipment room.
The first information transfer unit that ran out of coolant was at the end of the thirty-fourth.
Looking into the depths of the dark equipment passage, Jiang Liang put a light stick in his mouth, said vaguely to the intercom, and stepped into the darkness.
At this time, the sound of the other two's walkie-talkie was also a little chaotic and noisy, Lao Tian seemed to have something wrong with the wheel axle of a machine, and he could hear the sound of "da-da-da" with a yard hammer.
And Tongxiang's girlfriend probably came to communicate, and Jiang Liang couldn't help but have a kind of joke that the young man is really good at playing.
It took Jiang Liang six or seven minutes to walk from the front end to the end of the equipment rack.
In line with the idea of what has come and what is safe, Jiang Liang carefully checked the entire column of equipment indicators, and the speed was a little slower.
Nearly ten minutes passed, and Lao Tian seemed to be busy with his own work, and ran back with a sigh of relief.
felt that he seemed to be holding his breath when he ran, which made Jiang Liang can't help but feel happy in his heart, this Lao Tian is afraid that he is not old-hearted, and he is still fluttering all day long, and he can't even save some water now.
And Tongxiang's side seemed to react to the kiss between himself and his girlfriend, and I was overheard by a few unscrupulous old men, so I simply turned off the intercom.
Shaking his head a little helplessly, Jiang Liang squatted down and began to use the yard hammer in his hand to knock on the switches of the various loop pipes that replenish the coolant, and at the same time clicked on the control panel of the equipment for process reporting and execution.
After setting the dosage and time of supplements, Jiang Liang spread his hands on the ground with some boring expressions.
It was quiet on the walkie-talkie, and I was afraid that Lao Tian had returned to the house to release water.
Jiang Liang, who was not interesting, turned to another channel, which was the public frequency of their device administrators, and there were probably more than a dozen people online.
Three or two seniors who were on duty later than Kan Dashan, five or six dogs who followed the dog's legs, Jiang Liang listened to it but didn't join it.
Not long after, two or three young people who joined the company in the same year were heard on the walkie-talkie, holding their breath and "snorting".
This made Jiang Liang can't help but feel a little emotional, whether the weather is too cool this night, or these girls and guys don't know moderation at a young age, and they don't realize that they are the same age as them.
There were fewer people one after another in the public frequency, looking at those who turned off the walkie-talkie and never turned it on, and looked at the dark equipment passage, Jiang Liang suddenly felt a little cold.
At this time, the coolant delivery pipeline next to him is still running "gurgling".
This was the only sound in the entire piece of equipment, but it gave Jiang Liang the illusion that it was the only sound in the entire company.
