Chapter 34: Close Encounter
With a loud bang in the mountain stream of the Flying Seeker Country, the firelight illuminated the silence under the night sky.
Itrak and Lawson were driving their trikes and stopped where they had been attacked by unknown creatures!
When they looked up, the tin can, which was only thirty meters long, flew into the sky!
Ittak used his special ability to look at it and said, "Zheng Ying is not up there!" ”
Rosen exclaimed with some disappointment, "Are you questioning him?" This kid is simply a madman, his brain, will definitely invent something that will not be discovered, it seems that he does not want to stay on Earth any longer! ”
"What's the panic? Rosen, my eyes can see every part of that thing, Zheng Ying is not on it, it is a rudimentary kerosene rocket! Itaker exclaimed, frowning.
Rosen grabbed Itak's hand: "He's a former scientific advisor!" He wants to run, and he can still let you see? ”
"I believe what I saw with my own eyes!" Itrak said, pointing to his blue glowing eyes.
Rosen shook his head: "You don't know anything about the power of science!" Hum! He's definitely not there anymore! ”
Ittak shook off Lawson's hand: "Sit honestly, I'll drive over and have a look!" ”
In time, in time...... Ittak admonished himself over and over again.
He even regretted a little why he waited for Lawson to recover from his injury before coming here for the second time, and he should have settled himself and came early.
If it was really as Rosen said, Zheng Ying created something that humans couldn't discover, and flew into the sky in that tin can rocket, then it was really hard to determine whether Zheng Ying would die in outer space after that, or where else would he escape!
Nervous, dark, and a flustered Lawson next to his three-wheeler, Itak was extremely agitated, but his years of experience prompted him to calm down and suppress his anger.
I thought that as long as I saw Zheng Ying, I would have to beat him up.
Then he scolded him with his head and face, pointed at the tip of his nose and yelled at him: You run again? You run another one and I'll see!
Although these are all ideas, Ittak has been patient for a long time, and really wants to teach Zheng Ying a lesson, and ask him why he ran away, is it because he was confined?
Dozens of kilometers later, a long list of log roadbeds appeared in front of me!
This is the first time Ittak and Rosen have seen it.
He was surprised and said, "This is all made by this kid Zheng Ying?" ”
"He's ...... alone," Rosen was a little distressed, "how long is the road?" It would take months for a child to finish cutting all this wood! ”
Itak gritted his teeth, looked ahead, and drove his motorcycle down the bumpy log roadbed.
The thumping wheels ran over the logs one by one, and it seemed that the three-wheeled motorcycle would not last long.
Thankfully, they didn't encounter the same mountain-like monster as last time.
"How far has it been, how can there be such a road? If he did it alone, it didn't make sense. "The road was very bumpy, Lawson couldn't stand it a little, although he was just riding in the car, but he always felt like the motorcycle was about to fall apart.
It didn't take long for such worries to happen.
Because the roadbed is formed by logs directly side by side on the ground, each log is about 30 cm in diameter, and the semi-circular arc during the period causes the road paved with logs to be not flat.
If you want to talk about off-road vehicles, Zheng Ying's original off-road vehicle seems to be unbearable, but he has modified the original wheels of the off-road vehicle to a large diameter, so when he goes back and forth, it is not a problem to walk like this at all.
But Lawson and Itak, the two of them just bought a second-hand motorcycle three-wheeler from Birch City.
The car walked on the road of logs, and it was scrapped within a dozen kilometers.
The silhouette was deformed, one wheel had also been punctured, and the sound was almost like a cannon.
Ittak jumped out of the car and looked at it, and he said helplessly to Lawson: "Let's go in, in order to prevent accidents, I will carry you on my back and jump over quickly." ”
"That's the only way to bother you." Rosen jumped out of the car.
Rosen's is unreasonable, first of all, it has been a few months, secondly, the road, and finally the conclusion is almost 70 kilometers long.
Suppose that there is no high-tech equipment, civil engineering machinery, and only with the strength of a 16-year-old boy alone, just to cut down the trees used in this whole road, and to work non-stop every day, it will take a year or two.
And he cut it evenly and drove the stakes on both sides, and made all the wood, all into smooth logs, and laid them on the ground, forming a rudimentary road.
He definitely didn't do it alone.
Ittak agreed, thinking that someone must have helped him.
"Who could it be?" Rosen asked.
Ittak immediately thought of a person: "I heard you say before, this kid seems to have a good relationship with Shanren Changfeng, and here, Feixun Rensi Country, isn't it the hometown of that stupid big man?" ”
"But Changfeng is not in Qingluo Country! He's not from our base! ”
Itaker snorted coldly, "So what? The reason why he can have a good relationship with Zheng Ying is not because this kid almost starved to death at that time, and when our boss arranged for someone to pick him up, Changfeng found him. ”
Rosen nodded in acquiescence.
Although it is said that the person of Shanren Changfeng does not belong to the Qingluo base, the third base in the world belongs to the same family, and it is managed by seven elders.
At the beginning, Zhang Yao was able to seconded Shanren Changfeng to arrange the task of finding Zheng Ying.
Don't rule out this big man, go back to his old nest and go around.
If the two of them are not in collusion, then even if they meet by chance, it is very likely.
One thing behind it, Rosen remembered that Liang Xue had complained in front of Zhang Yao at that time, saying that Zheng Ying and a guy with a height of about three meters in the action group were old acquaintances.
What he meant was, why can't I, Liang Xue, make friends with the people in the action group.
Zhang Yao didn't pay attention to him, but felt that he was a little jealous.
The action group and the scientific research team themselves are two departments, and they are both directly under the boss of the base.
If people in these two departments have a relationship and make friends, it can only be a chance encounter or an opportunity.
Liang Xue came to the Qingluo base, except for Itak, none of the other people in the action group had been busy with any tasks, so he didn't have this kind of opportunity yet.
As soon as he thought of this, Rosen felt that Ittak had guessed it again.
However, in fact, Zheng Ying always thought that the 70-kilometer road paved with logs was completed by herself, and she even felt that she was amazing.
For example, a house with 3 bedrooms and 1 living room, even if it is a bungalow, there is a 16-year-old boy who goes to build the house brick by brick and stone, maybe as long as it takes long enough, but all the raw materials are excavated by himself, so it will never be completed in a short time.
Compared to the 70-kilometer-long road made of wood, it is far more difficult than building a three-bedroom and one-living room bungalow.
Zheng Ying launched the privately developed rocket, but in Ittak's eyes, it was nothing more than an iron can.
Ittak's own superhuman strength took Rosen to take off and jump, and soon rushed to the side of the mountain stream.
When they got here, all they saw was the scaffolding tens of meters high, and a mess of things.
Zheng Ying is not here.
"Looks like he's really gone, God? What the hell does this kid think? Rosen silently raised his head.
Itrak grabbed the rutted dirt on the ground, twisted it a few times in his hand, and said, "This kid didn't go to heaven at all, he just didn't want us to get his research results, it seems that he is really good!" He must have walked forward. ”
Ittak pointed to the distance of the mountain stream and looked up at the cliff face high up.
Rosen came over and pinched his waist: "Is there any basis?" ”
"You shouldn't be wrong, there are already a lot of petrol bombs on this cliff! Some of them are still diesel, and he is going to run away lightly! Where else can you run? Itrak frowned.
Rosen walked into the tin house and found a computer, a radio, and an old-fashioned telegraph.
"Hey, Itak, come in and see, this kid is experimenting here!" Rosen shouted.
Before Itaker could walk in, Lawson connected the receiver next to the transmitter to the battery.
The indicator light of the telegram receiver suddenly flashed, and Lawson thought that Zheng Ying deliberately left them to receive the message, so he put the headphones on his head and began to receive the signal.
In a short time, Rosen had copied all the Morse code connected by the dots and lines.
When the radio station was turned on, the night seemed to be over, and none of the stations were still broadcasting.
He adjusted the knob and found a music station, which seemed to have no anchor, just babbling tunes.
Listening to the melodious tune, Lawson actually had a sense of leisure and elegance, twisting his body and dancing.
Ittak saw outside, the camouflaged bush that hid the snowmobile.
He lifted the dead leaves and saw something cone-shaped.
The snowmobile was very rudimentary, and Itrak sat on the car and looked at it, and after a few maneuvers, it seemed to startle him, and immediately turned off the car's start switch.
"Damn, it's an FM resonator! What the hell is this kid, why is this resonator so big? Itaker muttered to himself.
Suddenly, hearing music coming from the house, Itrak yelled at the tin house next to him, "Rosen, what the hell are you old boy, why are you still playing music?" ”
"Hey! Ittak, he's almost in primitive times here, what's the situation? There are radios, radio receivers and transmitters, and these old antiques! Lawson shouted as he walked out.
Ittak wasn't in the mood to talk to him, he was just here to check to see if there was anything valuable that Zheng Ying had left behind.
At this moment, he noticed a large oil tank on the side, which was empty, and it looked like it could hold dozens of tons of oil.
Why is it that all the oil in it is empty?
Itrak was thinking about it when he suddenly stepped on something under his feet.
Looking down, it looks like a thin mud after rain, and now it's winter, how can the moisture in this place not freeze but how to melt?
Itrak bent down to peel it off with his bare hands and found two rubber wires.
He grabbed the two wires directly, and at one end, he didn't know where his eyes looked, and he was walking in the direction of the mountain stream.
The other end of these two wires connects in the direction of the tin house.
Itrak turned on his para-vision ability and looked down into the mountain stream.
About a few hundred meters from here, there is a metal device, and an antenna made of iron and copper wire.
Ittak's eyes fell on the large empty oil tank again, and he looked down at the wire in his hand that stretched in the direction of the tin house.
Rosen was giggling, walking down the wooden steps from the tin house, still holding a piece of paper in his hand, and when he saw Itak, he said happily, "Dude, do you understand Morse code?" I know how this works, but it seems a little difficult to decipher it, and I've heard that your action team is proficient in all strategic things, so let's see, I just copied it, and what it says. ”
Itrak dropped the wire in his hand, clapped his hands and ran quickly.
He picked up the Morse code that Rosen had copied down, looked at it carefully, and said, "The base has exploded!" It seems to say that some kind of giant monster attacked? Army Soul Island? ”
Rosen smiled: "Don't make trouble, how is this possible?" Take a good look, telegrams are generally not very simple words, read them together! ”
"No, it seems like a plan! But for now, the two of us are looking for someone, and the base will be put in advance. Itak gritted his teeth, he was still thinking about what it meant that this telecommunications connection to the tin house, with a homemade antenna connected to the distance of the extension, was meant.
Is it going to be exploded? Where did the contents of the big empty oil tank go?
Suddenly, Itak's ears twitched: "Someone nearby is using a wireless remote control device!" ”
He looked around vigilantly, and Rosen also asked excitedly, "Where is it?" Is it Zheng Ying's kid? ”
"It's broken... Not good! This kid is having a great time! ”
Ittak put his arms around Lawson, and just as he was about to jump up, the surrounding tin house and the snowmobile, along with the scaffolding tens of meters high, were like serial cannons......
Boom Boom –
The fire is rising!
It's a big fire!
The shock wave mixed with the flames, accompanied by the high-temperature air current, instantly filled the entire mountain stream.
Ittak flew into the air with Rosen in his arms, kicked the cliff several times in succession, jumped higher, turned his head, and landed on the top of the mountain stream.
Before Lawson could react, Itrak dragged him and spun around.
Behind them, there was a huge wave of heat erupting in flames, and it felt like a volcanic magma eruption of gas.
The intense heat roasted Ittak's back was scorching, but it didn't seem like much to him.
But Rosen, his natural curly hair, was burned off a large chunk at once.
The loud explosion lasted for several minutes, and when the flames died down, Ittak panted and pressed Lawson down on his shoulder.
"This damn bastard! Zheng Ying, this damn knows that we are coming, and he is going to blow us up! Damn, if I catch him, I'm going to have to tear him alive! Ittak was furious.
His face was covered in putty, and the clothes behind him showed a little skin.
Lawson was directly stunned, completely unaware of what was going on in this scene just now.
But it can be heard from the scolding tone of his companion that this is the work of the bad boy again.
