Chapter 32 Road Signs

The alarm is lifted and the cone box opens the safety door. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Yuan Xinran stepped out of the cone box and took a breath, the aftertaste of vampire slugs still remained in the air, but no matter what, it was not so depressing.

After Zhong Shang left the vertebral box, he immediately checked his surroundings.

"This is outside of Noah?"

"yes, you're safe for now." Yuan Xinran bent the corners of his mouth perfunctorily.

She stepped onto the parking platform and pushed the lever out.

Zhong Shang stepped forward to help.

"What is this?"

"Which city-state are you from? I haven't even sat in a lever car, so how did you get there Noah. ”

"Another means of transportation, not so primitive."

Yuan Xinran saw that Zhong Shang avoided the point, and did not ask directly.

Sometimes information is not based on asking, but by tricking.

"You must be in a government or military vehicle, not a civilian facility. Now we have no privilege but to sit on this. Yuan happily patted the carriage.

Before Zhong Shang got into the car, Yuan happily threw him a bag of water and a towel.

"Clean it up and come back up."

Zhong Shang looked at the clear water bag in his hand, and his movements were a little hesitant.

"Haven't used it?"

Zhong Shang paused slightly, but still nodded.

Yuan Xinran took the water bag and pointed to the trademark and specification symbol on it.

"This symbol represents 5 liters of compressed water inside, because the specifications of this grade are not high, so it is very cheap, except for Atlantis, other underground city-states can buy it." Speaking of this, Yuan Xinran glanced at Zhong Shang, "Although this thing was invented by Noah and is protected by intellectual property rights, because the technology content is not high, other city-states can also produce it." Of course, what is the situation in Atlantis, I don't know. ”

"Well, you've figured it out, I'm from Atlantis." Zhong Shang made a gesture of surrender, "Anyway, it's already exposed." ”

Yuan shrugged his shoulders happily and made no comment.

She tore open the seal of the water packet, turned the red round button to a scale position, shook it, and opened the seal.

"After so many years of seclusion and lockdown, you are finally willing to give up, there must be a very important reason."

Zhong Shang smiled and did not answer.

Clear water flowed out of the palm-sized package.

Yuan happily caught it with a towel. The water that flows out is much more than the volume that can be contained in the shape of the package.

"Atlantis is the only city-state I've never been to, I can only see from the past video records that it is a very beautiful city, so you don't communicate with the outside world, how do you entertain in such a closed daily life?"

"Why do you ask?"

"There is a guy named Lin Pei, you should be familiar with it, I chatted with Noah when I left him, and he said that he likes to watch Noah's "Turandot" very much."

"Lin Pei?" Zhong Shang smiled, "That kid has a bad history, and he probably doesn't read the source of the drama." "Turandot" does not belong to Noah, it belongs to the entire human race, to the heritage of the earth's civilization. ”

The clear water no longer flowed out, and Yuan Xinran handed the wet towel to Zhong Shang and closed the seal of the clear water bag.

"You also need to turn the red button and shake it. With each turn of the scale, 0.5 liters of water will flow out, turn as much as you need, and close the seal when you run out. She handed the bag of water.

Zhong Shang expressed his gratitude and then asked,

"That's all Lin Pei told you?"

"Of course, there are other things."

Zhong Shang waited for a while, and saw that Yuan Xinran had no intention of continuing.

"I want to hear about it."

"How about trading your secrets? It's fair that one person takes turns asking a question. ”

"Ha, you don't want to suffer."

"yes, who made your mouth so tight."

"Then let's keep each other's secrets for the time being." Zhong Shang had no intention of exchanging, "What Lin Pei will do, I can roughly guess." You should have made him suffer a lot of losses, or I wouldn't be here. ”

"Don't throw your hat, next time he catches up, I won't interfere." Yuan happily wiped the ashes on his hands and clothes.

"I'm sorry, he can't hurt you with me." Zhong Shang cleaned up, handed back the unused bag of water, and suddenly made a declaration like a daily ordinary conversation, and passed without special embellishments.

Yuan Xinran was a little moved at that moment, no man had ever dared to say anything to protect her.

But then she thought that this was the one who caused trouble, and the more protective she was, the more dangerous it became, and it would be safer for him to get away.

“…… Thanks for stirring. She rolled her eyes.

After Zhong Shang roughly cleaned up the dust on his body, the two pushed the lever cart back to the carved road and continued their journey.

Zhong Shang quickly understood how Yuan Xinran was manipulating, and he held the lever of the lever car.

"I'll do the rest of the way and tell me how to go."

Yuan happily let go of her hand, she really needed to rest.

"If you don't have a color, you keep going, and when you see a fork in the road, you look at the color."

“…… Can you explain that a little more? ”

Yuan happily rubbed the corners of his forehead, helpless.

"Don't you Atlantis even have any information about public post roads in your history textbooks?"

"Haha, I really didn't mention this much."

"Okay, how many independent main city-states does the New Apocalypse have, you should know this?"

"Don't worry, if this common sense is not clear, I won't be able to get out."

"That's good. When you see a fork in the road, look at the color of the road signs," Yuan Xinran took out his personal terminal and opened the example gallery.

"Yellow is Olympus, blue is your hometown of Atlantis, green is Maya, black is Noah, and red is the ideal city. If there are several colors mixed together, it is a common road, and as long as the colors inside contain the destination you want to go, you can go. ”

The picture is tossed under the control of the finger, and the general road signs of the public post road are clearly marked.

Five city-states, five colors.

"What if there is a fork in the road without color? Like that. Zhong Shang pointed to a fork in the road, there was no carved road, and there were no road signs.

"Over there is the territory of the Zerg, if you want to hunt the Zerg and collect useful organs from them, you can go that way."

"No, I'm in a hurry."

"Coincidentally, so did I." Yuan happily seconded dryly.

She pulled out a blanket from the space capsule's supply bag, split it in two, and put it under her body and covered her body.

Rolled up the end of the blanket as a pillow, and before lying down, she remembered something,

"By the way, if you can keep it at 50 km/h, the next colored fork in the road is still 4 hours away. I'll lie down for a while, call me in 4 hours, or call me in any situation. ”

"Well, rest assured." Zhongshang's hand is very stable, and the frequency up and down is balanced.

Although Yuan Xinran didn't think that this man could maintain a speed of 50 kilometers in one breath and press the car for 4 hours in a row, he didn't say anything.

Wrapped in a blanket, she closed her eyes.

She has been physically and mentally exhausted in the past few days, and she doesn't want to go out of the city for at least a month after she goes back, and if she can solve this trouble smoothly, she will have to submit a leave application immediately after the incident.

It didn't take long for Yuan Xinran to fall asleep.

Her consciousness saw a familiar landscape.

It was the Spirit River around the Ideal City, and she looked at the Ideal City at one end of the river.

Some people chased her from behind, and she ran away as she fought. She can fly, but not in a lump manner, and the altitude is very unstable, high and low.

Her power could not be fully utilized, and something was holding her back.

She wanted to enter the city, but she could only surround the river around the city, and she couldn't get into the gate.

As soon as the screen turned, she realized that she had arrived at the ******** of the Sky Temple.

Her teacher sat at the top of the hall, the papal throne resplendent with golden light, and the golden light from there illuminated everything around her in a single outline.

"I'm disappointed in you."

The pope's voice echoed through the hall.

――――――

Yuan happily opened his eyes.

She buried her head in the blanket and recalled the images from her dreams, which felt like some bad omen was floating over her head.

I looked at the time in a daze, and only 3 hours had passed.

Yuan Xinran deduced that there should be a quarter of the way to the next fork in the road, and there was still time for her to think.

There is something strange about the frequency of vibrations in the carriages.

Yuan happily sat up.

She saw that Zhong Shang's hand was on the lever and did not move, and the lever cart was moving forward relying on the previous kinetic energy.

Now the speed of driving is very fast, visually estimated at 90 kilometers an hour, almost reaching the upper limit of the pole car.

There was no time to think about why Zhong Shang could maintain this speed so easily, Yuan happily observed the scenery of the post road outside the carriage.

Unlike the distance they should have traveled at this point, there are differences in the distribution of minerals.

"How many forks did you cross?" Yuan happily turned on the instrument and relocated the lot.

"Three." Zhong Shang replied.

The location was determined, and Yuan Xinran's eyes widened.

"You know it's a journey that the average person would have taken 10 hours to complete."

"Aren't we in a hurry, so I picked up a little bit faster."

"Stop."

"Huh?"

"I said stop!"

The pole truck slowly stopped.

Damn, she's going to go back, and she's missing the shortcut.

Yuan happily put the blanket back.

"I don't want to fight, I didn't make it clear before, it's my fault. Now I need to calm down and think about it. ”

Yuan happily jumped out of the carriage and walked to the outside test near the post road, walking back and forth with his waist crossed.

Zhong Shang didn't go down, taking advantage of this gap to loosen his body, and the joint position made a Caracalla sound.

After a few minutes, Yuan happily stopped moving, she turned around, returned to the position of the carriage, and did not go up.

"We'll be separated here, and I'm not going back to Ideal City for a while."

Zhong Shang didn't speak, waiting for her to explain.

Yuan Xinran had no choice but to continue,

"I'll write you a letter of introduction, and you can take it to my friend, who can do more than me, and I'm sure you're happy to meet someone with higher authority and more authority."

Yuan Xinran took two steps back and pointed to the carriage, "This car is given to you, you know how to operate it, if you hear an alarm in the post road, hide in the cone box, this kind of box is very much in the post road." ”

She pointed to one two hundred meters away, "As long as you enter, the door of the box will automatically close, the outside alarm will be lifted, the door will open, and the inside should not be as dirty as before, after all, the box with a broken cleaning system will not be so unlucky that you will touch it." Still have questions? ”

Zhong Shang's response was only one sentence.

"Where are you going?"

"It's a city-state secret, and I have nothing to say. Also, on the eve of the festival, you can only enter the Ideal City with a letter of introduction, so be careful not to lose it. ”

Yuan Xinran found a flat stone and took out paper and pen.

She would hide the military department's code words in the letter, telling the guards guarding the city pass to detain the man holding the letter, and she would bear all the responsibility.

If Zhong Shang agrees and takes the letter into the city, it means that he is willing to follow the regular process to achieve his goals, and there are still many opportunities to control him.

If Joong-sang's refusal to do so, or even let her go, then she must keep the danger out of Ideal City.

She couldn't put Ideal City at risk of war with Noah to take in a wanted criminal.

Even if the two city-states really can't avoid a war, she can't let Noah use this man to make a fuss.

Zhong Shang jumped out of the carriage and approached.

Yuan happily withdrew the pen, facing this man, she sensed the shock on the other party.

The answer is already there.
