Chapter 61: Deep in the Forest
Behind the wheel, there are buildings of different heights, and all that Haige can see are pointy, glowing roofs.
Looking farther away, there is a rolling mountain, and the rows of white light flashing on the mountain are antenna arrays? They have a thin body and a pot-shaped head, which is neatly facing the northern sky, and occasionally one of the "pots" turns, so that the white light flashes violently a few times.
Far away from the antenna array, occupying another hill, is a row of huge pillars that can almost touch the sky, Hai Ge can count a dozen at will, it is estimated that if you go to the mountain, you can find more such towering giants made of steel.
From time to time, strong electric sparks flowed down from the top of the giant pillar, hitting the hard pillar and causing a piercing electric light, as if the steel giants could talk and blink, and were talking to each other. Far away, Hai Ge could hear the hum coming from the giant pillars, perhaps it was the sound of them talking.
"The Redemptive Light Organization has built the Earth Engine in the center of the Earth, and when the Earth is about to set sail as a spaceship, the Engine will be launched into its current orbit, and then led by a ship to orbit outside the solar system."
Haige recalls the successful introduction of the Earth Rescue Plan in the Shadow and guesses what the equipment is for.
He could even see why this underground kingdom, close to the center of the earth, was so vast and shrouded in warm sunlight. The so-called sunlight must come from those steel columns, right? While the large-scale starting engine works, it also provides light and heat for the huge plant world, and promotes the development of the underground ecological environment, forming a harmonious ecosystem today.
The complex, which looks densely populated, does not see a single living person at the entrance, except for a few rows of elevated cameras with similar round eyes. Haige guessed that Wedel was in a room in a certain building, watching him.
"Mr. Wedel, I'm here, can I go in?"
For the first time, Haige used the title "sir" to Wedel, and his tone was very polite.
"Come in, boy, please forgive me for not being able to go out to meet you in person, I can't afford to leave the work at hand. There is a bush behind the complex, and the bushes surround a row of workshops, and I am in the workshop, so come to me. Wedel said very politely.
Haige walked past a row of shelves with monitors, and through a large iron door with a curved door, to a small fountain with a mermaid statue in the center.
The buildings here are really weird, the doors and windows are the same dark gray as the facades, and they look like both glass and metal, but if you don't look closely, you have to mistake them for a whole, so they don't look so much like buildings as inverted T-shaped metal shelves, or T-shaped glass shelves.
The complex occupies a large area, but it is quiet as if it were uninhabited. Haige believes that there must be someone in the room, and this should be the headquarters of the Redeeming Light Organization.
Wedel said that he was behind the complex, and Haige searched all the way, and sure enough, in a garden full of golden sunflowers, he saw a row of low houses made of random metal plates not far away.
There were six houses in that row, and each of them had a large round chimney on the top, and white smoke was still rising from the chimneys of the middle two.
They were the workshops that Weedel had mentioned, surrounded by a circle of dark green bushes that looked a lot like the paving cypress that grew here and there on the ground, but when a few branches touched the back of the sea singer, he felt that the branches were far harder than normal shrubs on earth, or more like soft needles that could sting.
The silence all around, and despite the lush flora and fauna, there is no chirping birds, which is probably the most obvious difference between this place and the rest of the vast underground plant kingdom.
Through the bushes, Hai Ge walked around twice, and was thinking about how to get in, when Leng Buding rushed through the oblique thorns and several black shadows, and before he could see what they were, he was knocked by the black shadows running in front and leaned against the bushes.
"Oops!"
Hai Ge screamed, grabbed the needles of the hard paving cypress with his two hands, and pierced a few thorns into it, so painful that his tears were about to fall out. Looking closely, he was even more frightened, it turned out that the black shadow that rushed over and kept circling around him was a wolf!
This place is really infested with fierce beasts, how can there be fierce birds even in the territory where the owner lives?
Haige was bitter, and even outrageously guessed that Wedel was not a human but a wolf, one of these hateful creatures?
He hurriedly tried to escape, and hurriedly looked for his way, and he didn't care about it when his hand was bleeding.
But behind him were bushes, and the wolves in front and left and right were blocked, and there were as many as seven of them, and it seemed that he had no way out except to fly into the sky!
"Help!" Hai Ge shouted, no matter how brave he was, he didn't have the courage to fight the seven evil wolves alone!
Luckily, however, the wolves were just wagging their broomstick-like tails and baring their snow-white fangs, walking around him, with no intention of pounceing on him and tearing him apart. And although he was in extreme fright, Hai Ge could feel that these wolves seemed to have a smile in their eyes, not a treacherous and treacherous, poisonous smile that played with their prey, but if it was a friendly welcome smile, he didn't dare to expect it.
"Old guys, don't make a fuss, come back! Didn't you just eat a little bit of your bread? I didn't let you go hungry, so why not be generous? Wedel's voice sounded from the other side, thank God he wasn't a wolf, and Hai Ge's heart was reassured.
"Have I eaten the bread of these wolves? When? ”
Thinking about what he just heard, the second monk of Hai Ge was puzzled, thinking that you are an alien, I have never known you, and this is the first time to come here, how can you grab bread with wolves to eat?
The nonsensical false accusation made him angry, and he simply looked at the wolves with a fierce look.
Hey, that's not right! Why do these wolves look so familiar, as if they have seen them somewhere!
Before he could take a closer look, there was a sound of the door opening from the workshop, and then a tall man pushed open a hidden bamboo fence from behind the bushes, and came out with a smile and said to him, "Welcome to the humble house, child, I have waited for you at last." ”
"You ......"
Hai Ge looked at the visitor in a daze, and his heart was in chaos. Why does that face look so much like the wandering artist I met when I first entered Xijin City? But apart from the face and figure, the clothes on the body are completely different. The vagabond, with his blond hair and beard, and a ragged shirt, had neatly short brown hair and a clean plaid shirt with high rolled sleeves, making him look very lean. He wore a black leather apron on his chest, which was protected from his chest to his legs. He also held a large wooden spoon with a handle a foot long in his hand, proving that he was really busy with his work and couldn't leave for a while.
