Chapter 204 The Herdsman's Flock
"What, you think there's something wrong with these flocks?"
Jiang Yingxue knows Bai Ning, and she also knows that he is not the kind of person who likes to be entangled in the form of parting, and being able to accompany him a little bit is already his limit.
"The flock seems to be grazing aimlessly, but it is not grazing at all, but wandering aimlessly.
This phenomenon either indicates the sudden death of their head sheep or the disappearance of the herdsman who dominated them.
In this flock, you can still see sporadic sheepdogs walking indiscriminately, which shows that the sheep have lost their basic control. ”
Bai Ning's analysis is well-founded and based on a basic analysis of the overall state of the flock.
It's known as Death Valley, and if a herder suddenly goes missing, it's likely that he or she was struck by lightning.
The herdsman had come in a few days before them, so they didn't know if there had been a drought or thunder here.
"Even if there is a sudden thunderstorm here, as long as I am careful in the future, it shouldn't be a problem."
For this small risk, Jiang Yingxue didn't care, the vehicle had been equipped with a lightning protection kit, even if it was directly hit by thunder, at most it would paralyze the vehicle.
Besides, they've just come here, so there's no reason why they're so unlucky.
"I'm not saying that the Tibetan sheep have lost their shepherds, I'm saying that their shepherds have been replaced by people with hearts.
Based on the dragon-patterned stone slab we found in the tomb of the Queen Mother of the West before, I think that the person who suddenly appeared is probably the original Captain Dong.
Being targeted by such a sinister and cunning person, I think that your leaving alone will become an important target for him."
Bai Ning showed his initial conjecture, which made Jiang Yingxue look a little surprised.
The captain surnamed Dong appeared in the middle of the last investigation of the Yingkou dragon falling incident, and his main goal was also to find the dragon through Liu Cheng.
They left Yingkou City and headed for the Tarim Basin area, which was kept secret by the captain surnamed Dong, how did he know that this trip might be related to the dragon hunt?
Could it be that this captain surnamed Dong simply followed Liu Cheng, so that he received some unexpected surprises?
In other words, the captain surnamed Dong was able to remotely sense the dragon pattern slate and wanted to steal this dragon pattern slate in the next big action.
As for kidnapping her Jiang Yingxue in exchange for a dragon pattern slate, this kind of simple thing, Jiang Yingxue felt that there was no need for any reason.
"How can you be sure that it's Captain Dong and not a member of the Daredevil Club hidden in the shadows?"
Jiang Yingxue asked a little casually.
"The concentration of the personnel of the Night Demon Club is much higher than that of Captain Dong, and we still haven't figured out even a little bit at the moment, and it is impossible for the personnel of the Night Demon Club to appear."
Bai Ning's response was even more flat, as if he had never doubted the result of his conjecture.
"Even if it's really the captain surnamed Dong who is hiding in the shadows, what can we do?
You can't just wait for him to come over and throw himself into the net.
You've fought with him, and you know that he's the kind of shrewd guy who will run away immediately if he doesn't take advantage of him, and it's almost impossible to keep an eye on him.
Moreover, his methods are dirty, and he dares to use any shady tricks, and if we stay here for a long time, we may not only have problems with supplies, but also may be infected by the sheep that are all over the mountains and fields with some unknown diseases.
There are only a thousand days of thieves, how can there be a thousand days of thieves, is it, in order to be more secure, can we only put aside the current exploration activities for the time being? ”
The inexplicable crisis made Jiang Yingxue also feel a little uncomfortable, and even had the idea of summoning the Aaron trio.
It's just that it's not clear whether the Aaron trio is still occupied within the family, so she doesn't plan to call people immediately.
"The process of finding the original refuge of the Queen Mother of the West was already boring, but now with him to send warmth, it can be regarded as adding a bit of fun to this boredom.
What Captain Dong needs is nothing more than a dragon pattern slate, and then Liu Cheng, using this as bait, I don't believe he can stay calm forever. ”
Bai Ning's tone was faint, as if he had already sentenced Dong Dabeard to death.
Obviously, after Bai Ning realized Dong Dabeard's sneak attack, he had already roughly come up with a Yin man's solution.
Moreover, if Dong Dabeard needs to hide in Tibet, he may find a passage into the initial refuge of the Queen Mother of the West in that corner.
Everyone is just entertaining each other and chatting to relieve boredom.
In the face of this good drama that has gradually unfolded, Jiang Yingxue has the motivation to continue to stay, whether it is to ensure her own safety or to enjoy this good show.
No one could ask Bai Ning what he was planning in his heart at the current moment, and after a hurried discussion, they dispersed.
The valley is still full of sheep, the sound of bleating is leisurely and pleasant, and the sheep have faintly surrounded the entire camp.
Surrounded by abundant water and grass, this flock of sheep seems to be staying here for a long time.
Occasionally, a sheepdog passed by the camp, sniffing at the sky from time to time, not knowing if it was checking the general movement of the sheep or if they were spying on some other information.
Slowly, they are interspersed among the sheep, without the slightest duty that a shepherd dog should fulfill, but more like a group of hunting dogs that have received orders, silently collecting information about their prey.
Because he was well versed in Captain Dong's ability to poison, Bai Ning asked the bodyguards not to buy sheep to eat, even if they wanted to use a lot of water, they must make people optimistic about the water source.
The whole team was stationed in the middle of the valley, but any lone sheep that ran near the camp would be chased away by the bodyguards.
Drones patrol the sky every day, exploring the hidden places in the river valley, and the cold sun shines in the river valley, just like the most ordinary scenery in the world.
The silence of each other, and the existence of the hidden place is not waiting for a good opportunity.
Even if Bai Ning's bold words made the undercurrent here turbulent in an instant, the years at this time were still quiet, and everyone was carrying out their orders step by step, and nothing unusual happened.
A day later, the drone patrol was still making no progress, as if there were no ancient ruins in the area.
In the face of this unfavorable situation, although Jiang Yingxue knew that it was useless to be anxious, she was the one who was going to leave, and it was pointless to spend so aimlessly here.
"Why, the trapping plan you are talking about, is it just waiting for the rabbit here?"
Jiang Yingxue opened Bai Ning's tent and entered, but did not sit down, and slowly spit out with a slightly ridiculous tone in her coldness.
Bai Ning didn't raise his head, staring at the electronic map in his hand and watching silently, as if he had entered a state of selflessness.
"If nothing else, go back and get some rest."
After waiting for more than ten seconds, what she waited for was such a bare answer, which made Jiang Yingxue a little unable to see through what big move Bai Ning was holding back in his heart.
"If there were any noticeable architectural traces here, we had already found them during the previous general inspection.
Is it really useful to continue analyzing a bunch of meaningless video data now? ”
A day of drone flight observation has actually determined the invalidity of the aerial perspective, and if you want to find the clues of ancient ruins, you must take the way of field exploration to find them.
Even if the valley is not densely vegetated, over the course of thousands of years, whether it is a build-up of dust or ordinary decaying plants, it may be covered with a layer of camouflaged soil and vegetation in less obvious remains.
If you want to peel off this layer of camouflage, you can only find it inch by inch through field investigations.
Whether it is by digging three feet into the ground or by hitting the luck, as long as you find the corners of this ancient ruin, the rest of the things will just come naturally.
"The ancients paid attention to feng shui when building cities, which actually made the construction site of the house located in a sunny and leeward place.
If you want to get water, it's best to have a small river next to your house, or an ancestral hall.
The construction of evacuation sites, especially large ones, has higher requirements for the location.
To avoid the great flood of the world, we must not only consider the height of the terrain, but also consider the phenomenon of landslides and falling rocks caused by huge waves crashing against the mountain.
After the flood waters have receded, the site cannot be located in the flood channel, so as not to be flooded for a long time.
Based on these rough requirements, the evacuation site should be located in a large mountainous area with a solid and compact structure.
Such areas can be found everywhere in the Kunlun Mountains, but if you focus on the middle section of the Nalengrad Gorge, there are only these three effective locations. ”
As if wanting to make Jiang Yingxue stop for a while, Bai Ning told an immature point of view.
This point of view has not been properly confirmed, and there is no great truth, but it is just the words of Bai Ning's family.
You must know that the West Queen Mother clan is a remnant of the Fourth Civilization, and how strong the construction technology it has is is immeasurable.
Even if it was built on flat ground, it would be possible not to build it on a higher mountainside, as long as the above-ground exit of the dungeon could be sealed in first-class condition.
"Isn't that a good idea?
Are you going to leave overnight tonight? ”
Jiang Yingxue's words sounded like nonsense, but the hidden content in it had already mentioned Captain Dong who was hidden in the shadows.
The night is dark and the wind is high, it is a good time to steal chickens and touch dogs, and those with ill intentions at this time are more likely to show their feet.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as a drone is released to monitor the infrared signal nearby, then the people who sneak over will exist in the field of vision of the drone.
With the advantage of vision, they wanted to surround Captain Dong unconsciously, but they did it with a fee.
Such thoughts were surging in Jiang Yingxue's heart, and it was a concentrated psychological reflection of his desire to rush to get rid of Captain Dong.
