Chapter 205 Suspected Area
"You guessed it right.
However, it may not be feasible to use the infrared function of the drone to monitor Captain Dong.
You know, he can completely disguise himself as the infrared signal of the flock close to us.
Even if a flock of nocturnal sheep is deliberate, what can we do if we know it, and can we prevent the sheep from eating nocturnal grass? ”
Today, the drone was released for a day, and Bai Ning also knew this kind of secret surveillance drama, but Jiang Yingxue had not personally experienced the cunning of Captain Dong, so he reminded him once.
"Unexpectedly, this is still a boat runner who is good at lurking.
Did you already know him so well after a brief encounter with him? ”
Jiang Yingxue seemed to be just asking a very ordinary question, but in fact, she was mocking Bai Ning for being too cautious and taking Captain Dong too seriously.
"If expected, he is a person who is good at thinking from the other side's point of view, and he is a person who will not easily take risks.
Therefore, once this kind of person appears, it will inevitably have the upper hand.
It is estimated that he is well aware of the level of science and technology that we may have in our hands. ”
Bai Ning's tone was light, as if he wanted to reverse the contemptuous mood fluctuations in Jiang Yingxue's heart.
Obviously, the experience of serious injuries of the boatload of people at the beginning did not have much of a wake-up call for Jiang Yingxue.
Thinking about it, there are no dead people, and in Jiang Yingxue's opinion, they are not ruthless.
However, the reason why Captain Dong didn't kill people in the first place was just because the blood of living people was more valuable.
"So, some conventional little tricks can't help the one who runs the boat.
So, what kind of intrigue did you want to use to design him? ”
Seeing that Bai Ning attached so much importance to it, Jiang Yingxue was even more interested in the trapping plan in Bai Ning's heart.
"It's just a small trick that can't be put on the table.
Whether he will show up, whether he will show up, whether he will take risks for some established temptation, it is completely unknown, and it is still too early to talk about these things. ”
Bai Ning refused to say this trapping plan explicitly, either indicating that this plan had already included her Jiang Yingxue, or that this plan might still be in the making.
In this regard, Jiang Yingxue did not want to delve into it.
It is already in the hunting range of dangerous people, whether it is dangerous or not is not determined by Bai Ning's actions.
The rest of the words, there is no point in saying more, no matter how cunning the other party is, the dark night is the best opportunity for the other party to show his feet.
In addition, the opponent may only have one person, and it is also a good strategy to exhaust the opponent's energy reserves by taking advantage of the large number of people as much as possible.
Some of the personnel were left to guard the camp, and all the other personnel went to the area judged by Bai Ning to look for buried ruins.
Since following Bai Ning to see more and more secrets of the world, Liu Cheng was also very excited about the night action at this time, carrying a mountaineering bag with dragon pattern stone slabs, he only felt that he was the protagonist of tonight's operation.
But after climbing the mountain at a high altitude for a while, Liu Cheng's energetic energy immediately collapsed, and he fell at the end of the team with Professor Huang, who was also tired and out of breath, feeling like a pair of fleeing grandchildren.
In response to this situation, Bai Ning prevented Jiang Yingxue's intention to send more people to protect Liu Cheng, and it seemed that he wanted to lure Captain Dong to make some transgressive moves by using Liu Cheng, who fell at the end of the team.
Although she knew that the drone was useless, Jiang Yingxue still insisted on allowing this aerial vision to survive, and this false sense of control might be able to play a miraculous effect at a critical moment.
The first slope was quickly reached, and the area was large and gently sloping, which was very conducive to the construction of the city, and the large area of force could also slow down the tsunami's impact to some extent.
It is precisely because of the gentle slope that the floating ash soil layer accumulated in this area is very thick, and the vegetation density is more abundant than in other mountain areas, so there are more sheep gathered.
As far as the eye can see, the Tibetan sheep in the aperture are either kneeling on the hillside and chewing grass, or still slowly eating the tender grass on the hillside, and occasionally a few afraid of life will run away after being illuminated by the light.
At this moment, Bai Ning and his party are the intruders on this hillside, if someone hides here in sheepskin in advance, the drone in the sky really can't find it.
As the crowd approached, a large number of sheep ran away, leaving only a few bold goats standing in place, squinting at the people while continuing to gnaw on the grass below.
These obvious infrared targets all fell into the field of vision of the drone, and when observed through night vision devices, these are all normal Tibetan sheep.
Confirming that nothing had been found, Jiang Yingxue waved her hand a little lazily, signaling the bodyguards to disperse and begin to carefully search the hillside as quickly as possible.
The bodyguards are all poking east and west with elite trekking poles, and they will take an iron pickaxe to chisel it when they encounter a thicker soil layer.
After searching for two or three hours, I still found nothing, and I don't know if the ruins were buried too deeply, or if there were no effective clues in this area at all.
"Nothing, do you think we need to get a Luoyang shovel to play with?"
Taking advantage of the rest of the whole team, Jiang Yingxue looked at the stars in the sky and teased casually.
Beautiful scenery always needs a good day to set off, and for the tired people who have desires, the Milky Way stars are just a high-color curtain, a meaningless illusion picture.
"If necessary, it may be necessary.
However, there are more rocks than dirt here, and if we do encounter this thick layer of soil, it means that we may have really picked up a treasure. ”
Bai Ning's speculation was quite simple, which could be regarded as adding a bit of light-hearted fun to the starry sky, and also delineating an established direction for their subsequent advancement process.
"Bosses, what time do you get off work tonight?"
Liu Cheng, who was secretly looking at this side on the side, saw that the conversation between the two was very relaxed, and he felt that he could steal chickens, so he hurriedly stepped forward to talk.
This is done day and night in the plateau area, and sooner or later his thin arms and legs will be exhausted.
"There's another hillside on this side of the river, so let's go back to camp after we're done searching."
As soon as Liu Cheng heard this, there was a light in his tired eyes.
Crossing the river is a troublesome thing, and being able to save the troublesome thing for tomorrow is very much in line with Liu Cheng's style of doing things.
Eating and waiting to die is nothing more than saving important things for tomorrow.
After a short break, the team set off again, and after another hectic search, the results were still nothing.
It seems that all the hope points to the area across the river and ends tomorrow.
The drone flew all night, and no abnormal infrared signal was found, as if Captain Dong, who was hidden in the shadows, went to bed early because of the high reaction.
All conspiracies failed, leaving only a group of unsuccessful souls to return to the camp in despair.
After a while, the snoring in the camp was loud, almost like an instant, and the cold sun of the plateau area once again shone on the lonely mountain, making the camp that had been frozen all night slowly recover some vitality.
It wasn't until eight or nine o'clock that the camp began to sort out the equipment for crossing the river, and it was obvious that Gao Zheng had not been adapted to it in a short time, and everyone was exposed in the high-intensity physical labor.
There are no sheep on the other side of the river, and the field of vision of the drone in the air is quite clean, and if there is an abnormal infrared signal, it can be observed at a glance.
I don't know where Captain Dong is hiding, the team patrolling the mountain has almost turned over the mountain, and no abnormalities have been found.
The suspicious location with great expectations did not find any traces of the ancient ruins, and no suspicious objects were found in the drone, and this kind of failure did not show any signs of displeasure on Bai Ning's face.
"This hill is three feet away from digging into the ground, and still nothing has been found, why, are there other high-suspicious locations to choose from?"
Jiang Yingxue asked this question a little breathlessly, not asking about the future exploration plan, but asking whether Bai Ning's current move to find a needle in a haystack was really effective.
The possibility that the entrance and exit area used to avoid the tsunami is unlikely to be too large, and that it may extend some distance inward, which is an important obstacle to reducing the success rate of finding a needle in a haystack.
"The fact that the Western Queen Mother clan did not return after leaving this area shows that the clan that attacked them occupied this area for a long time.
At that time, there must have been a large number of buildings here, but now there is nothing left here, which is strange. ”
Bai Ning didn't seem to understand Jiang Yingxue's question, and just told a question to himself.
This question vaguely points to the possibility that the many other clans besieging the Queen Mother of the West also ended up experiencing a huge civil strife, which completely reduced the area to ruins.
Not only that, but the way this man-made disaster spread is extremely tragic, and there may even be some high-energy weapons left over from the Fourth Civilization, which have reduced all the buildings to pieces, and after thousands of years of wind and sun, they have weathered into one of the many rubbles in this river valley.
"You're saying that the place where we are standing today is actually the place where we were once prosperous, and all the rubble and dust is the legacy of the original building.
If so, then where are the craters for high-energy weapons that were detonated here in the first place? ”
Jiang Yingxue's question directly pointed out the Achilles' heel of Bai Ning's current conjecture.
A high-energy weapon like this that can destroy the entire valley area must be a powerful existence like the father of bombs, and it may even be a nuclear bomb.
With such a powerful explosion, there must be a huge lake here, or a part of a mountain has been cut off.
However, judging from the overall geographical situation, it does not look like the scene of a major explosion.
The mountains and rivers are as usual, the land is empty, and the vast scenery is not ordinary in the world.
