Chapter 528: Trap
Qian Cangyi didn't tell Roland about going out, because he didn't want to add extra trouble.
Convincing Roland is not an easy thing to do, especially today.
Dusty Sand City is still lit up at night, and as in real life, some people have slightly different body clocks than the rest of the people, and they are more active at night.
It seemed that only in the darkness of night could they cheer up.
It didn't take long for him to find a ride, and after he asked to follow the City Security Bureau's vehicle, the other party did not let him get out of the car, but asked for five times the price.
"Deal." Qian Cangyi didn't want to waste time.
He knew that the other party was slaughtering himself, but he now had a windfall on him, the liquidated damages given by Hart, so he didn't care about the small money at all.
Driven by money, drivers quickly caught up with City Safety Department vehicles.
"I declare first, I will leave as soon as I arrive, and I will not wait for you." The driver explains his requirements in advance.
Generally speaking, as long as the customer gives enough money, the driver will happily stop in place and wait, but now this situation is obviously not a good thing, even if the money is more, you have to spend it.
"Hmm." Qian Cangyi was pondering whether he could buy the other party's labor tools.
He thought about it carefully and found that there was no need, because this time he was just following the City Security Bureau to find out what was going on, instead of going into Longtan Tiger's Den alone.
After a while, the driver spoke again.
"They're going to go out of town, and if that's the case, they're going to have to pay more." It is impossible to have repeat customers like this, and of course the driver will not let it go, and how much can be pitted.
Qian Cangyi did not answer.
He didn't mind doubling the money, but he minded the other party constantly changing the conditions.
Seeing that Qian Cangyi did not speak, the driver gradually reduced his speed, and saw that the vehicle of the City Security Bureau was about to lose sight.
"You stop and try." Qian Cang glared at the driver.
"Add money." The driver doesn't talk nonsense either.
"If you lose it, I'll smash your car." Qian Cangyi's words were considered to agree with the other party's request, but he also gave the driver a message.
The passenger in the back seat was not easy to mess with.
After leaving the city, the lights instantly dimmed a lot, and some strange sounds came from time to time.
"Actually, I don't recommend you to go out at night, the last few months are the active period of sand snails, you may be in trouble alone, once you are attacked by sand snails, although you will not lose your life, but it is not very comfortable." Maybe it's the charm of money, or maybe it's the threat of Qian Cangyi just now, the driver's tone is much better at this time, and the content is no longer simply 'adding money'.
But as soon as he finished speaking, a mutation protruded.
A large black shadow emerges from the ground, obscuring half of the sky.
Qian Cangyi found out that it was a sand snail worm, but it was an adult, not the larva that Roland had asked him to eat before.
The size of the adult and the larvae are completely different orders of magnitude.
"Oh my God!" The driver hurriedly stepped on the brakes.
After the emergency stop, the snail worm burrowed into the ground again, as if nothing had happened before.
"Look at the size, I'm afraid the sand snail worm just now has metamorphosed six times, fortunately, he is not very interested in humans, maybe he has suffered a loss, otherwise we may be ...... today" The driver was in a cold sweat, and he was still a little afraid.
"You're lost." Qian Cang's tone was very calm, but there was a biting chill in this calm.
The premise of continuous price increases is to be able to meet the requirements of the other party, and the higher the price, the more serious the retaliation will be when the other party's requirements cannot be met.
Of course, the current situation is not bad, but it is just a matter of missing for a while, and it will soon catch up.
The driver did not talk nonsense and started again.
Qian Cang turned his head to look out the window, and the evening breeze kept blowing in his ears, dispelling his sleepiness.
Driven by the carrot stick, the driver quickly caught up with the City Safety Bureau vehicle, and just as the driver was about to keep their distance, a white light suddenly lit up in front of the City Safety Bureau vehicle.
This light was already very familiar to Qian Cangyi, and of course, it was not to mention that it was in a country where alchemy was the foundation of civilization.
The light of the alchemy array, a huge alchemy array.
It's about the size of two basketball courts.
The white light was followed by a skyrocketing fire, followed by an explosion.
At this point in time, the vehicle of the City Safety Bureau was at the center of the explosion, and because of the rush to the accident site, the vehicle behind did not keep a safe distance, and there was no time to brake in a short time.
Therefore, the serial rear-end collisions that often appear in blockbuster movies appeared in front of Qian Cangyi's eyes at this moment.
At this moment, the night was completely illuminated by the firelight, and the broken cars rolled on both sides of the road, and a gust of wind blew, and the smell of meat came to the face.
Because of the considerable distance, the driver stepped on the brakes in time and was not involved in this man-made accident.
"Gross!" Of course, the driver who smelled the smell of meat knew why there was such a smell, because what happened just now was so abrupt that he couldn't accept it for a while, and he vomited directly.
I saw my right hand waving in front of my nose, and then got out of the car.
"It seems that everything is calculated, and only a person of Hart's status can make the other party pay such a big cost." Qian Jiangyue said.
Qian Cangyi didn't answer, he took out the conch that he could contact.
Elsa's pattern is still there.
The call process was very long, because it was already out of town and there was no signal amplification station nearby, so the contact was very unstable.
But three seconds later, it was still connected.
"What a coincidence." Elsa was panting as she spoke, as if she had gone through a strenuous exercise.
Are there any after-effects of overusing skills?
Qian Cang thought to himself.
"Where are you? Location. Qian Cang took a look at the scene of the accident, and it was a mess, which can be described as tragic.
"Ah, did you come along?" Elsa smiled bitterly, "Don't move, I'll go find you." ”
After about thirty seconds, Elsa appeared in Qian Cangyi's line of sight, along with four other people.
When they got closer, Qian Cangyi found that all five of them were injured to varying degrees.
Elsa wiped the blood from her forehead, "Do you want me to introduce me?" She gestured to the four people beside her.
"I'm afraid it's not the time for the introduction." Qian Cangyi's gaze crossed the five and looked back.
There were already some people dressed in black who were coming around.
And at this time, the driver still did not recover from vomiting.
"You guys help me get out for some time." Elsa said to the people around her.
"Don't worry." A middle-aged man and a young man nodded, and then walked towards the man in black who was forming an encirclement.
Elsa chose a clean spot and pressed her right hand to the ground.
Immediately afterward, the ground beneath her hand began to tumble, forming a small mound of dirt, and a small sapling grew from the very center of the mound at a speed visible to the naked eye.
A faint green light emanated from the small sapling, and Qian Cangyi found himself standing around this sapling, and his mood was much calmer.
"I've seen this skill before, the Tree of Life, a skill of the recovery type, the healing effect depends on the vitality provided by the user, the higher the vitality, the stronger the Tree of Life." Hawkeye tells the two of them what he knows.
