Chapter 253: Part-time job
He immediately emptied himself, entered a meditative state, and began to observe the situation in the next three days.
Although it is mainly up to luck whether or not you can see what you want to know and what time period you will see, if your subjective consciousness is strong, then the direction of observation will also be biased towards what you are thinking.
Luckily this time, Yan Huang did see the whereabouts of his experimental samples.
Yi Chen and Su Rui didn't dare to disturb Yan Huang, and only guessed the situation from the change in his expression.
Yan Huang's demeanor was calm at first, but his brows were tightly knit and his expression was solemn, and it took about ten minutes before he finished his meditation and opened his eyes.
"How?" Suri asked. He knew that Yan Huang's abilities would be filed in a neutral area for all the relevant information of infected people in Xijing, and Yan Huang was no exception.
"Stuff is in the reservoir."
"Reservoir? Isn't that the territory of the nobles, their hands? Suri was surprised.
"It's very likely." Yan Huang finally controlled the anger.
Just now, Su Rui persuaded him not to fulfill the replacement agreement with the nobles, and he refused in one go, but he didn't expect the nobles to step on his head?!
Whatever their purpose for doing so, those samples are very important to him, and they must all be recovered!
Yan Huang's gaze also fell on Yi Chen.
Truth be told, his foresight is something that only he can see, and it's hard to convince others.
In the absence of conclusive evidence, he, a representative of neutrality, could not make a definite attack on the aristocracy.
Yi Chen is indeed the best candidate for this operation.
First of all, he has strength; Secondly, as Su Rui said earlier, he is a new force in Xijing, and it is normal to be out of line; In the end, Yi Chen is the person they trust the most now.
"If you can make a trip, the supplies that were originally given to the nobles will be transferred to your name. If the samples can be recovered, the supplies will be doubled as a reward, and in the future, all the food and drink of all the people in your alliance will be covered by the Gang Group. Whatever else you need, you can talk about it. ”
The conditions for opening the city are quite tempting, Yi Chen's Pioneer Alliance has few people and can't eat much, but he still has a group of zombie laborers near the Luojiang Bridge, plus the Bobcat Legion who has not been in the city for a long time, so many openings up and down have to be filled, and the cost is very large.
Even if you don't have to worry about it for the time being, there will always be a day when you sit and eat, how can you not be tempted by the fact that Yan Huang is now giving a long-term meal ticket?
Moreover, putting aside the various conditions offered by Su Rui and Yan Huang, Yi Chen really went on a trip this time.
Yan Huang had collected his blood samples and muscle tissue, Liang Bing and others had also been treated in Yan Huang's hospital, and Yan Huang must have also taken samples. If these samples fall into the hands of someone else, I am afraid it will cause problems for everyone. To be on the safe side, he had to recover it himself to prevent future troubles.
"Okay, I'll go." After making up his mind, Yi Chen immediately geared up. Promise to come down.
"Don't be careless, this reservoir is no ordinary place." Suri said, pulling out paper and pen from his carry-on backpack. As an adjutant, it is his habit to carry a pen and paper with him for filing.
He quickly drew a sketch, but the picture was so scribbled that it made no difference to follow the hand graffiti.
"The reservoir is intricately intertwined, with three large mechanisms, and it is difficult for people who don't know the terrain to get through."
"No, wasn't the reservoir built in recent years?" Yi Chen was surprised. In the old factory of Nanchuan and the cathedral in the territory of Qingyin Pavilion, he can still understand it, after all, it is a building complex with a hundred years of history as a strategic place, but now even an underground reservoir has been placed with an institution, and there is nowhere to use it if you have a lot of money? Isn't that hilarious?
"You're a foreigner, you don't know anything. The reservoir existed a long time ago, and workers discovered it while excavating the tombs, and then repaired and put it to use. ”
"Tombs?"
"That's right, Xijing is a historic mountain city, easy to defend and difficult to attack, a strategic location, there is a large group of princely tombs, which have only been discovered in recent years. The reservoir is associated with the tomb complex and is part of the institution. At that time, the media did not publicize the truth to the outside world, mainly because they were worried that after the spread of the news would attract widespread attention from public opinion, the above would not approve the repair of the reservoir in order to protect the tombs. ”
Hearing Su Rui say this, Yi Chen almost understood. He has seen a lot of tomb robbery films, and there are also water traps that trigger them. It seems that the ancients had imagined that if a thief broke in, they would rather break the jade than seek the whole tile, and use the water to wash away the tombs.
Su Rui didn't say the specific age of this ancient tomb, and Yi Chen was not interested in it, so he didn't ask.
However, the wisdom of the ancients is really outstanding, and it is admirable that such a reservoir was built under such a harsh mountainous terrain, and it can still be cited by future generations after so many years.
"This is one of the reasons why we try not to bring the war to the noble realms as much as possible. They are hollow underground, and the surface layer is relatively fragile and cannot withstand strong impacts. If it collapses, the reservoir will be finished. Suri said.
The end of the reservoir means the end of Xijing.
Infected people can go without water, but ordinary humans, animals and plants cannot. If these creatures are hanged, the food supply of the infected will be cut off, they will have no flesh and blood to eat, and sooner or later they will also go to destruction, everything is closely related.
Yi Chen felt that it was really not easy to go this time, not only to deal with the nobles and break into the mechanism to retrieve the samples, but also to pay attention to proportion, not to act too much, otherwise it would cause a chain reaction such as collapse, and everyone would have to mix.
"Don't be too stressed, our alliance has an internal response in the nobles, and he is very familiar with the nobles' territory, so he can lead the way." Suri reveals the last card.
This time, Su Rui was able to inquire about the situation of the nobles in such a short period of time, which was also a blessing from the inside. For this mission, he wanted to expose this chess piece, and he also made a cost.
However, Yi Chen believed that the National Guard also had an internal response to the Noble Alliance.
"Cheng, when am I leaving?" Yi Chen asked directly about the itinerary. Now he works for the two bosses, Yan Huang and Su Rui, and everything has to be up to them.
"Probably leaving tonight. Our deal is a secret, don't let the other alliances know about it. You go back and pick the entourage first, and I also need to say hello to Nei Ying, ask him to connect with you, and call you when the time comes. "Suri is worthy of being the second-in-command of the First Alliance, and he has arranged things very well in a very short time.
Yan Huang was worried that the samples he had spent so much effort on would be gone, and he couldn't wait to choose the right equipment, potions, etc. for Yi Chen now, so that he could set off immediately. However, Suri's suggestion greatly improved the chances of success, and he had to accept to wait until everything was ready for the evening.
Yan Huang is a businessman, so naturally he will not bet all his chips on this one plan, of course, it will take time to prepare something else, so he can't be in a hurry.
Since the nobleman dared to steal his things, he must have taken corresponding precautions, and it was not so easy to break through.
