Chapter 307 This Damn Sense of Fate
On the lawn, the old man was dumbfounded as he watched the scenes happening.
How long has it been since you were so surprised?
He doesn’t even know.
This world is just repetition, nothing new, the old man once thought so.
The young man who impressed him was just an ant that looked familiar to him, and his favorable impression would not affect the old man's judgment.
It is inevitable to take one foot out and crush the ants.
But what appeared on the screen was no longer the c4 neural network system, but the image of the Baltimore Bridge collapsing.
It was indeed shocking, but what shocked the old man was not simply the Baltimore Bridge, but the provocative and eager gaze of the young man.
He is like a young lion, coveting the throne of the Lion King.
Although the person was dead and no one could survive in this kind of collapse, the old man could not have expected that Luo Hao could cause such great damage.
"Which ship?" The old man asked softly, looking at the Baltimore Bridge that was all collapsing.
"Leased by Danish shipping giant Maersk."
Maersk, the old man has a large stake in countless funds.
It can even be said that Maersk belongs to this old man and his friends.
His ship hit the bridge and the young man escaped death? The old man felt a sense of absurdity lingering around him.
Fate, the hand of God, these words were stirring in the old man's mind, causing huge waves.
"The captain is Ukrainian, the sailors are all Indians, and the ship is made in South Korea. The ship has been sold to Japan and Singapore..."
In just a few minutes, that A series of information about the ship is almost dug to the screws.
Coincidence, everything is a coincidence, the old man is stunned, it is a fateful coincidence.
The piers of the Baltimore Bridge are specially designed. Even if a ship passes sideways, there will be no problem as long as it is controlled, and there will never be an accident that directly hits the piers.
The reason why there has been no accident for so many years is because the design of the Baltimore Bridge is very clever.
Except for the approach bridges at both ends, the most important part in the middle of the bridge is an arch composed of a steel frame. The bridge deck is suspended by steel cables pulled from the arch, and the entire structure relies on two A Font-shaped pier support. The purpose of this design is to increase the span of the bridge piers and the height of the bridge deck as much as possible to facilitate the passage of freighters.
But the more sophisticated it is, the weirder it behaves when faced with sudden impacts.
But the cargo ship hit the bridge pier, and the bridge pier was like paper. The chain reaction caused the entire bridge to collapse.
When a bridge pier was knocked down, not only did the arched part it supported collapse, but the bridge deck supported by other piers on the right also collapsed, and it didn't even collapse once or twice, but three times in a row!
The entire bridge was destroyed in front of the old man.
The flag of Singapore is flying. It was rented by our own shipping company. The captain is Ukrainian and the crew is Indian.
It has nothing to do with Luo Hao or Dongda University.
The old man looked at it blankly, feeling helpless in his heart.
It was fate that defeated him, not the kind-faced young man, he silently repeated this thought in his mind.
And the young man probably didn’t win, he just caused huge damage before dying.
The scene was a mess, and the Baltimore Bridge was still collapsing piece by piece like Lego.
How can anyone survive in this situation?
Impossible!
"Sir, we are verifying the rescued captain and crew." The man broke the silence.
The old man said nothing.
"Three people have been rescued. They said that the ship had power supply difficulties when approaching the Baltimore Bridge."
"Electricity?"
"The ship was in 2015 The ship was delivered by South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries. It was very new and should not have had any problems. At the time of the accident, they activated the backup power supply, but it only lasted 2 seconds."
"None of this is in line with common sense."
The old man sighed, his mood waning.
He seemed to have aged more than ten years, and the aloof temperament that he had before had everything under control was gone.
Facing fate, he is just an ordinary human being.
The Flintstones.
"Boss..."
The old man suddenly raised his hand, interrupting what the man was about to say.
He suddenly remembered something!
The boss at the back of this freight company is indeed myself, but the CEO at the front is a Chinese woman named Zhao Anji.
Angel Chao is the wife of Senator Mitch McConnell and the sister of former Secretary of Labor and Transportation Elaine Chao.
A few weeks ago, Anji Zhao also died, drowned in a pond.
Of course, this is a press release, and the real cause of death is clear to the old man.
Same as the doctor named Luo Hao.
It’s just that Zhao Xiaolan is not as tossing as Luo Hao. She quietly “drunk and drove” and “drowned” in a small pond.
Is it Zhao Xiaolan’s ghost? !
The old man's face looked a little ugly, very ugly.
None of this can be explained by physical rules, but Zhao Xiaolan’s shadow has been floating in front of the old man.
The sense of fate became real, like substance.
……
……
The sky is white with fish belly.
Chen Yong sat on the sofa and thought quietly.
He picked up his cell phone and called Dad Liu at the Foping base.
"Brother Liu, I am Chen Yong."
"Doctor Chen, morning." Although Liu's sleep was disturbed, he was not angry to get up, so he smiled and said to Chen Yong greet.
"Is the position of bamboo still there? How is it?" Chen Yong asked directly.
"Yes, yesterday's operation was very large, and I estimate that we will be able to bring back a pregnant wild female giant panda in a few days." Dad Liu said with a smile.
In his opinion, it was gratifying to have a grandson.
Although these giant pandas will be released into the mountains and forests after they turn 3 years old, they are of bamboo blood and have an ongoing relationship with Papa Liu.
"Tell Zhuzi to return to the base immediately." Chen Yong said resolutely.
"Ah? Doctor Chen, I didn't hear what you said clearly. Say it again."
"Tell Zhuzi to return to the base immediately. You take people to find him. Be careful about Zhuzi's safety. Immediately, immediately!" Chen Yong said word by word, "I will fly over in a moment."
"Why?"
Dad Liu was surprised.
Everything is going well, Zhuzi has brought back two wild female giant pandas, one of which tested positive for pregnancy.
The other one is also probably pregnant, but the time has not come yet, and there are no objective indicators to determine it yet.
Scientific research is going smoothly, bamboo is up to par, and bamboo has even had huge traffic in a short period of time, surpassing Huaju and becoming the top giant panda in the country.
Why pull back suddenly?
Countless questions filled his mind, and Dad Liu was stunned for a moment.
"Immediately, immediately!" Chen Yong shouted impatiently.
"Oh, okay." Dad Liu heard something wrong from Chen Yong's tone.
"I'm sorry, Dad Liu, take Zhuzi back to the base immediately, no matter whether he is dead or alive."
"Death? Zhuzi is fine, Doctor Chen, don't say that."
Dad Liu was stunned.
Bamboo is almost invincible in the Qinling Mountains. He really can't think of anyone who can cause harm to bamboo.
Although drones cannot be used for positioning and observation recently, with a locator, the range of bamboo walking every day must be fine.
Why did Dr. Chen think about dying?
“No time to explain, let’s do it right away!”
“Okay.” Dad Liu and Chen Yong formed a deep friendship while feeding bamboo, and they also knew that although Chen Yong jumped I take it off, but I never joke about big things.
Although he didn’t understand, he still responded.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yong turned his head.
Liu Yiyi leaned against the door in her pajamas and looked at herself.
"Are you having a nightmare?"
"Luo Hao told me that he was going to die."
"Ga?!" Liu Yiyi also learned Ga, she was surprised looked at Chen Yong.
Chen Yong picked up the worn-out mobile phone, found the news and handed it to Liu Yiyi.
"Did Luo Hao tell you? He is haunted? Or has he traveled through time?"
Liu Yiyi felt like she couldn't turn around.
"The other side first issued a death notice and then took action. Luo Hao probably escaped the first wave and took the time to call me to explain the funeral arrangements."
"?? ?" Liu Yiyi looked at Chen Yong as if he were an idiot.
Make an announcement first and then take action. No one with logical thinking would do this.
“What’s that look in your eyes?” Chen Yong changed his mobile phone and started to book tickets, “Please ask for leave today and go to Ha Dong to accompany Wang Jiani.”
“Professor Luo is really dead?” Liu Yiyi I feel like I haven't woken up yet and want to go back and sleep again.
It must be that he is getting angry, or that bitch Chen Yong is joking with him again.
That’s what Liu Yiyi thought.
As soon as she turned around, Chen Yong stood up and started changing clothes.
"Why are you going?"
"Book a ticket and go to Foping base."
"What are you doing?" Liu Yiyi asked something similar.
Chen Yong was silent.
There are some things that are not convenient to talk to Liu Yiyi, and they are too ridiculous.
Chen Yong does not believe that Luo Hao will die. Although the hexagram is very bad, there is hope for life.
Determining whether Luo Hao is alive or dead, only bamboo.
Just like quantum theory, if Luo Hao dies, Bamboo will die immediately without any delay.
Now that the bamboo is still alive, it proves that Luo Hao is still alive.
"Hey, I'm talking to you." Liu Yiyi stepped forward and choked her.
Chen Yong made a spell and his fingers fell on Liu Yiyi's arm.
A burst of electricity passed through, and Liu Yiyi's arms became stiff.
"Don't make trouble, Luo Hao will most likely die." Chen Yong said expressionlessly.
"???" Liu Yiyi was stunned, "What's the point of going to Foping?"
"I asked Boss Zhou, but he couldn't help it." Chen Yong said vaguely, "Ask Director Feng for leave, and he also asked for leave for me."
Chen Yong changed clothes and went out.
Click~
The door closed and Liu Yiyi stared blankly, her mind turned into a mess.
Why did Professor Luo die just after he left?
Doctors are indeed used to separation between life and death, but Professor Luo was not yet 30, so he left as soon as he said...
The door opened, and Chen Yong gave Liu Yiyi a hard hug.
"You?"
"There's meat growing next to the butterfly bone, Lao Liu, you have to lose weight." Chen Yong turned and left.
Gan!
This piece of shit can't spit out ivory from its mouth!
……
Chen Yong called a taxi online and sat in the car, feeling confused.
He also couldn't accept Luo Hao's call.
"Old Liu!" Chen Yong dialed Liu's father's phone number, "Have you gone to pick up the bamboo?"
"We are going up the mountain."
Dad Liu was a little confused.
Bamboo's journey has not yet reached too deep into the mountains, and is circling in the mountains dozens of kilometers outside the Foping base. Otherwise, Zhuzi would not have brought his "girlfriend" back to Foping base so quickly.
“Did the bamboo move?”
"It keeps moving. It's really weird. This child doesn't seem to have slept well last night. I looked at the records and he was wandering around in the mountains last night. He didn't sleep most of the night. I don't know what happened."
Dad Liu As he said this, there was speculation in his heart.
Zhuzi’s unreasonable behavior and Chen Yong’s “unreasonable” demands are superimposed, and they are saying something silently.
Chen Yong's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Sure enough!
You can't feel it yourself, but bamboo can.
"What now? How is the locator?"
"Still moving!"
"Hey~~~" Chen Yong let out a sigh of relief.
Look at the time, Chen Yong calculated.
But after second thoughts, Chen Yong was helpless, he didn't even know what to plan.
When he went back to Corey to ask for leave, he didn't respect Shen Zizai that much. If Luo Hao was not here and his master resigned, Chen Yong would most likely not want to be a doctor in the future.
"Old Liu, send me a message every five minutes." Chen Yong warned in a deep voice, "Remember, one message every five minutes! I'm on the plane and can't reply, so you have to send me a message too, Report that it's safe."
"What are you sending?"
"If the bamboo is still moving, just send it to me..."
As he said this, Chen Yong felt that wind and sand had entered his eyes.
"Dr. Chen, is there something wrong in Qinling?" Dad Liu asked cautiously.
"Don't ask, I'm on my way to the airport." Chen Yong sighed.
Dad Liu was full of doubts, but he didn’t have much to do, so Chen Yong simply didn’t ask if he wouldn’t ask.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yong started counting with his right hand.
But his mind was not calm, his Taoist mind was in chaos, and Chen Yong could not figure out anything.
That piece of shit Luo Hao told him twice before he left that he would do the math. Why didn’t he insist on it? Chen Yong cursed in his heart.
"Old Bai, where are the morning classes?"
"Well, what's wrong."
"Help me make a prediction."
"Huh?" Bai Dicheng was stunned on the other side of the phone.
"My Taoist heart is in chaos, please help me figure out whether Luo Hao is still alive. I made a prediction last night, it will be very bad."
"Oh." Bai Dicheng responded calmly After a cry, he said very little and didn't talk nonsense, so he just fell silent.
After a long time, Bai Dicheng said softly, "Big evil."
"!!!"
Chen Yong sighed, "Old Bai, do you want to count it again?"
Bai Dicheng hung up the phone directly.
Chen Yong also knew that his mind was in chaos. What he said just now was so unprofessional and ridiculing.
Fortunately, Dad Liu replied with a message every few minutes, telling Chen Yong that Zhuzi was still alive.
Chen Yong restlessly held his cell phone and kept looking at it.
Like an ant on a hot pot, restless.
Until he got on the plane, Chen Yong estimated the time in the United States, but he was still worried.
The good news is that the bamboo is still alive and the positioning collar is moving.
The bad news is that there seems to be something wrong with the bamboo today, and its range of activities is very large.
……
...
Dad Liu went over the mountains and ridges in search of bamboo.
He also sensed something was wrong with the bamboo today.
Bamboo is not an ordinary giant panda. Ordinary wild giant pandas have their own territory, and their daily movement range is extremely limited.
But not Bamboo. It has beaten all the wild male giant pandas nearby, but it has no fixed territory.
The water source upstream is where the bamboo is willing to stay.
But I am just willing and will not stay there for more than one day.
Dad Liu has already accepted this. After all, Zhuzi wants to find wild female giant pandas, conquer them, and bring them back to the Foping base.
But something is wrong with the bamboo today, and its range of activities is huge.
The only thing that is certain is that the bamboo is still alive.
After climbing over a mountain, other staff members sat down on the rocks in exhaustion.
"Old Liu, take a break, take a break."
Dad Liu's eyes widened. The front is the activity range of the bamboo, but now the bamboo is not there.
Something is wrong in the woods!
From a distance, Dad Liu smelled blood.
Ouch~~~
A jackal ran out. Dad Liu was startled and grabbed the staff next to him. The two of them made preparations in a panic.
There are groups of jackals in the Qinling Mountains, with three or five jackals moving together. If they attack humans when they are extremely hungry, Dad Liu and the staff will probably be in trouble.
But before the two of them were ready, the jackal ran away quickly without even looking at them, with its tail tightly clamped, as if there was some monster behind it.
What happened?
Dad Liu stared blankly at a jackal running wildly in the forest.
In fact, jackals are the kings of the Qinling Mountains. They have extremely strong survivability, live in groups, and fight in groups.
Even golden leopards or clouded leopards will not actively provoke jackals under normal circumstances.
But the jackal in front of me was wounded and frightened like a bereaved dog. Could it be that he was beaten by bamboo?
Daddy Liu doesn’t understand.
Bamboo's interest is not in Jackal, and Dad Liu knows it very well.
Maybe it was the jackals that disturbed the bamboo, or maybe it was the clouded leopard or golden leopard.
After a false alarm, Dad Liu and the staff had no intention of staying and continued to move forward.
Soon, the body of a jackal appeared in sight.
It has been dead for who knows how long. All the blood has drained out. The wound is a penetrating wound. The huge blood groove looks hideous and terrifying. It should be the hand under the bamboo.
As we continued walking forward, more and more jackal corpses appeared in front of us.
They were all fatal with one blow. Dad Liu could even imagine the action of the bamboo spear piercing the jackal.
Clean and neat.
Strange.
The deeper Dad Liu went, the more horrified he became.
Although bamboo is strong, it is rarely so violent. Dad Liu looked worriedly at the depths of the mountain.
No wonder Dr. Chen would call himself to repeatedly confirm how the bamboo was doing.
Looking at the equipment, the position of the bamboo is still moving.
Alive, but very irritable, Dad Liu made sure of this.
But fortunately, Bamboo seemed to have reason. The herds of takin were not attacked. It only attacked the jackals.
Dad Liu was very scared. He was afraid of seeing the corpses of golden monkeys and crested ibises in the Qinling Mountains.
Bamboo has the ability to do this.
Especially the group of jackals died simply. Wild animals that are weaker than the group of jackals have no combined strength in front of the bamboo.
Even herds of takin usually live near Yaoziliang. It is not difficult to hunt bamboo.
Continuing to go deeper, "fresh" jackal corpses began to appear.
The huge bleeding trough left by the bamboo pole looks a bit ferocious, and the corpses of the jackals that usually dominate the Qinling Mountains are everywhere.
Dad Liu was even a little worried that all the jackals in Qinling would be killed by bamboo.
More and more jackal corpses make Dad Liu worried.
"Old Liu, what happened to the bamboo?" The staff also saw something was wrong and asked worriedly.
“I don’t know, the range of activities of bamboo is too large.”
"It's really weird. Why didn't Zhuzi go find wild female giant pandas? Instead, he started hunting jackals."
Yes!
Daddy Liu was startled, then realized that the word "hunting" was quite accurate.
In Dad Liu’s mind, Bamboo’s IQ is quite high, about the same as that of a child in junior high school. He once even dreamed that bamboo could do math problems!
The dense forests of the Qinling Mountains seemed to be filled with the smell of blood, which made Dad Liu feel excited.
But there is still good news, the little red dot representing the bamboo is still moving.
It’s not that it’s moving all the time, and the bamboo will take a rest, but it seems to be fine now.
Dad Liu and the staff took a break. They drank water and looked at the little red dots on the screen.
"It seems that I haven't been active for a while." The staff said, "Is Bamboo tired?"
"Probably so."
In fact, Liu and the staff were worried about the bamboo being injured.
Although bamboo is powerful in combat, it does not mean that it will not be injured.
No one wants to think the worst.
A few minutes later, the bamboo's locator had not moved. Dad Liu couldn't help it, stood up and continued running in the direction of the bamboo.
Nothing will happen!
Dad Liu stared at the locator almost all the way.
The bamboo, which had been moving in a large area since Dr. Chen Yongchen called, suddenly stopped, and that bad intuition began to appear.
Bamboo's locator no longer moves.
Generally speaking, it is normal for wild giant panda locators not to move for 24 hours. Only if there is no obvious movement within 3 days, the staff will go to see what happened.
But every time Dad Liu comforts himself, he will think of Dr. Chen Yong and Chen’s inexplicable worries.
His pace is getting faster and faster.
The mountainous terrain was slippery. Dad Liu was still holding a monitoring and positioning instrument in his hand. He fell down countless times along the way and was covered in mud and water.
The mountain road for more than ten miles was bumpy and bumpy, and after climbing over a mountain, the location of the bamboo was right in front of me.
However, the bamboo is not visible due to the dense forest.
"Old Liu, don't worry." The staff looked at Dad Liu's white hair and tried to comfort him, "I have been tossing the bamboo all morning, I should be tired anyway. No wonder, you said Why did the bamboo compete with the jackals today?”
Dad Liu didn't speak. The red dot on the instrument didn't move. His heart was about to jump out of his throat.
The closer he gets, the more frightened Dad Liu becomes.
He was afraid that he would suddenly see the motionless bamboo lying on the ground.
If that were to happen, Dad Liu wouldn’t even know what to do.
When he thought of that scene, Dad Liu began to feel uncomfortable, and felt as if his whole body was being torn apart.
"Old Liu, wait a minute. Zhuzi must be fine and asleep. Why are you so nervous? I'm scaring you."
The staff member said with heavy breaths.
Dad Liu said nothing and continued to move forward.
"Isn't this normal? Bamboo needs to rest for a while and take a nap. By the way, Old Liu, how did you know that Bamboo went crazy and started hunting jackals?"
Staff's thoughts He was a bit weak and would panic if he didn't speak. Although Dad Liu didn't answer, he still kept asking.
"Roar~~~"
A fishy smell came to my face.
? ? ?
Daddy Liu was startled, Qinling tiger?
That thing has disappeared for 70 years. Is it an illusion?
Before the thought could come to an end, a bloody mouth appeared in front of Dad Liu.
