Chapter 19: The Strange Engine

The Ling family is a relatively strange family of the eight major families, generally speaking, that family is not the seven aunts, eight aunts, and more than ten brothers and sisters.

But the Ling family is not like this, the men of the Ling family are more single-minded, and each generation of the head of the family has only one wife.

So now the entire Ling family consists of four people: Ling Tao, his sister, and Ling Ran and his wife.

It's hard to imagine that a huge family has such a small number of people, otherwise there would not be an elder who gave Ling Tao ideas when Ling Sisi had an accident.

Ling Tao could only discuss it with a few roommates, Yao Wei and Chai Ge were responsible for going back to Nancheng to rescue his sister, after all, it was their family's sphere of influence, and he, Lu Chen and Sun Xian went back to the Ling family's ZXY department to find what they needed.

When Ling Tao went home, he found a lot of bodyguards, and also told Lu Chen and the two of them his guess, he vaguely felt that this matter was not so simple, the real target of these rats was him, and the so-called thing was probably just a disguise.

His parents had two children, him and Ling Sisi, if they were all caught, wouldn't those rats be able to achieve the goal of blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and threaten Ling Ran and his wife through the two of them, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the Ling family.

Ling Ran and his wife have always protected Ling Tao and Ling Sisi very well.

If they hadn't sent Ling Tao and Ling Sisi to Tianxing Academy this time, the two of them wouldn't have been able to go out together so safely, at least they would have left a few more bodyguards, and if not, they wouldn't have left a chance for those guys.

A warehouse in the ZXY department of the Lingshi Group.

Ling Tao and the three of them looked at the box in front of them with a volume of eight cubic meters in a daze, and the three of them thought in unison, what did they want? How can it be so big?

"There's no mecha in there, right, why don't we open it and take a look?" Sun Xian couldn't help but be curious and said first.

"Hmm." Ling Tao nodded.

He was also very curious about what was inside, so he personally operated the mechanical arm and opened the big box.

However, this box is not the mecha they imagined at all, this box is full of fillers used for shock absorption, and there is actually a box in the center, fortunately, the volume is not large, only two cubic meters in size.

There was a black combination lock on the front of this smaller alloy box, and the three of them were dumbfounded when they saw it, they didn't expect that they hadn't been able to see the contents of the box after such a long day's effort.

"That, Taozi, did your dad tell you any password or something, something like this, if he has some accident, isn't it impossible to open?" Sun Xian looked at Ling Tao and said half-jokingly.

", if you have an accident, my dad won't have an accident."

Ling Tao rolled his eyes, Sun Xian also took advantage of the friendship between the two families for generations, otherwise he would have to give him a good fight today.

"Isn't it just the password, although he didn't particularly emphasize it, it should be the ones he usually uses." Ling Tao said this to himself, and then stabbed at the combination lock.

He's getting more and more curious about what's in the box now, those guys have spent so much effort that maybe there's something big about it.

Ling Tao tried all the passwords he knew, not only did he not open the box, but also triggered the self-destruct mechanism of the box, and the ticking countdown sound almost scared the souls of the three people out.

"Hurry! Taozi, if you can't open it for a while, it's really going to explode, why don't I hide now, and you continue to try? Sun Xian saw that Ling Tao was nervous and sweaty, so he made a joke to ease the tense atmosphere at this time.

It's good that he didn't say this, but Ling Tao became even more nervous when he said it, and as a result, the 9-digit password was entered by the wrong one.

"Humph! If this thing blows up, I won't be able to save my sister, and you still want to run? It's better to carry it with me, but Lu Chen, you have to hide away for a while, don't I even have a corpse collector at that time. ”

Ling Tao pulled Sun Xian to his side with one hand, glared at Sun Xian fiercely, and waved at Lu Chen with the other hand, asking Lu Chen to step aside, and he dragged Sun Xian into a posture of dying together.

Lu Chen saw the confidence in Ling Tao's eyes and knew that he was joking, so he took two steps out very cooperatively, stepping on the warehouse with one foot and the other tower outside the warehouse, as if he might escape at any time.

"I rub, don't you? Taozi, my dad is just my son! You're going to wipe me out? He can't be crazy? Sun Xian was panicked by Ling Tao, and said this with some uncertainty.

To be honest, Sun Xian is not afraid of death, he is just worried that there will be no one to take care of his parents in the future, otherwise he would not have chosen the profession of mecha maintenance very obediently.

"Well, we are good brothers, walking in the wind and rain, and if there is any danger, we will naturally carry it together." Ling Tao nodded very seriously, he didn't mean to let Sun Xian go at all, he still grabbed Sun Xian to death.

Sun Xian couldn't break free after two tuggings, and finally looked at Ling Tao with a resigned face.

"Okay, who made us brothers, come, you stand behind me, maybe you can die a little slower, it's just a pity, Ling Sisi will have to take care of the four old people in the future." Sun Xian's words were very sincere.

", you can see it, what are you pretending to be with me? It's boring. ”

If Ling Tao hadn't seen the banter in his eyes, he would have almost believed him, so he immediately stopped joking and entered the password he thought was correct.

Sure enough, as Ling Tao finished speaking, only to hear the sound of mechanical operation, a cross flower cracked in the middle of the box, and slowly opened in four directions, revealing the contents inside.

It is a blue-purple device, about a meter in height, and is an irregular spherical object with countless wires and various connections on its surface, as well as some odd-looking fixtures.

Ling Tao could vaguely guess that this was an engine, but this engine was unlike anything else on the market, and Rao couldn't discern all the materials used to build the device in his eyes, so it was no wonder that those guys cared so much about it.

"Xiao Xian, do you know how to play this?" Ling Tao stabbed Sun Xian on the side.

Because among the three of them, Sun Xian's eyesight can surpass him, his family is in business, if he doesn't even know about him, maybe only Yao Wei knows about that guy.

His family is engaged in mecha design, even if Yao Wei doesn't like to design mechas, but he is much better than them in this regard, after all, he is a professional.
