Chapter 137 The Quietly Changing Past
"Overlord Salamander?" Chen Ziyan didn't feel any guilt at all, but the confusion on his face was a little more confused, and he asked: "The name sounds like a prairie otter. , can you tell me what happened specifically? "
If he had met Black Glasses, Chen Ziyan would never have asked such a question, because at that time, he felt that he already knew everything.
But now...
He really doesn’t dare to take this guarantee.
After all, who knows if there was any mysterious force involved in what happened in Kunlun Mountain.
Even if the whole team can't get involved, it's definitely not difficult if a few people are sent in.
"It has been some years since this happened. I had just come out of the recruit training camp and was transferred to the Kunlun Mountains to do engineering work."
Hu Bayi slowly He told Chen Ziyan his unforgettable experience in short and concise words.
“At that time, an advance team was needed to find a suitable location so that the large forces could move out. Our company happened to be selected, so our company selected a group of soldiers to escort the geological exploration personnel deep into the Kunlun Mountains. …”
Hu Bayi, who was immersed in memories, didn't notice at all that when he mentioned the number of people in the advance team, Chen Ziyan frowned slightly.
Actually, Chen Ziyan didn’t remember the plot so clearly, but he had a rough impression, so he knew very well that the advance team in his memory was definitely not as large as Hu Bayi said.
This means that things are indeed as he guessed, and there have been some changes that he was not aware of.
It is possible that the extra people in the team were sent by a force he was familiar with.
As for the reason, Chen Ziyan felt that the mysterious nine-story demon building was a good reason.
When Hu Bayi finished his story, Chen Ziyan asked directly: "Old Hu, you said there were dozens of you in the group, but how many people came back in the end?"
"Yes." Hu Bayi didn't know that Chen Ziyan After thinking about it, he took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, took a deep breath, and then replied in a low tone: "That time, a total of thirty people set out, but only five people came back in the end."
Recalling the scene at that time, Hu Bayi couldn't help but sigh: "If it weren't for the engineering technician named Zhang, I'm afraid Gawa would have to stay there."
Chen Ziyan just wanted to ask, but Who came back successfully? After all, what he knew was that only three people survived, but when he heard this, he knew that there was no need to ask, because Hu Bayi had already given the answer.
It seems that apart from the three people he knows, the other two people should be Gawa and the engineering technician.
But...the surname is Zhang?
This surname really doesn’t allow him to ignore it!
After thinking about it, he asked: "Listen to what you said, is there a story in it?"
"Yes, the situation was very critical at that time. If it weren't for this engineering technician With such skill, Gawa would have been squeezed directly into the closed ice crack." Hu Bayi seemed to have seen the thrilling scene again, his tone full of joy.
Then he seemed to remember something and added: "Speaking of which, that guy may be taciturn, but he is quite reliable at critical moments. He was the one who recognized the Overlord Salamander first."
The more he listened to Hu Bayi's description, the more Chen Ziyan felt that the person he was talking about looked more like the one he knew, so he continued: "Then do you remember what this engineer looks like?"
"The appearance... I can't remember clearly." Hu Bayi shook his head: "It's been too long, and we didn't communicate much at that time. If you say that I meet him again, I might be able to recognize him, but if you say I remember what he looked like, but it was really blurry.”
He then told Chen Ziyan that he actually didn’t notice there was such a person in the team at first, and he only discovered it when he encountered the Overlord Salamander. The existence of such a person. In other words, it should be the moment when the Overlord Salamander appears that this person reveals his sense of existence.
"That's right..." Chen Ziyan nodded subconsciously.
The characteristics described by Hu Bayi in his mind were constantly overlapping with a certain character in his memory.
If he guessed correctly, the engineering technician Hu Bayi met at the beginning was probably the last generation patriarch of the Zhang family.
I just don’t know what the person who went to Kunlun was doing? Is it for himself, or is it hired by someone else?
"By the way, I'm just busy reminiscing about the past, and I haven't said anything about the real thing yet." Hu Bayi broke away from the memories, and then remembered that he hadn't said what he wanted to say yet.
"Oh...yeah, what did you want to say just now." Chen Ziyan was also interrupted by his words, put aside his doubts temporarily, and asked cooperatively.
"I want to say that if there really is a king salamander in the underground river, it would be very dangerous for us." Hu Bayi said with a serious face.
Then he did not forget to give an example: "At that time, we had nearly twenty guns, but we could barely repel them. Now, although we also have weapons, we only have these few people. I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with them. Something."
Ever since Wang Kaixuan came out of the well and told him the following thing, Hu Bayi has been thinking about it. No matter what he thinks, he feels that this so-called 'messenger in the water' It's a creature similar to the Overlord Salamander.
Even if it is different from the one he met in Kunlun Mountain, it is by no means an easy creature to get along with.
"Lao Hu, what do you mean...we give up this waterway and still take the land route?" Chen Ziyan asked.
Hu Bayi was a little hesitant, he really had this idea.
But he also knows that there is a big gap here, and maybe no one in the team will agree with him.
After all, if we can really find a way, it will be equivalent to finding a direct road to Jingjue, which is more reliable than the land route with high uncertainty.
Seeing his expression, Chen Ziyan roughly guessed what he was thinking. He also knew that the incident left a deep shadow on him, so he said:
"Let's do it this afternoon. Let's explore the road first to see what the true identity of this 'Water Messenger' is in Lushan. If Prince Gumo's method is reliable, we will decide which path to choose."
Not to mention Hu Bayi, Chen Ziyan was also a little worried. If this was really the Overlord Salamander, he wasn't sure whether they could deal with it.
Judging from the current information, the only one in the team who can compete with this ancient creature is his puppet armor - Wushuang Ghost.
Others may be able to get around it with their skills, but don’t think about it if you want to kill it. This thing is a typical high-attack and high-defense type, and even the bullets that are full of toughness may not be able to completely penetrate it. through.
Thinking of the armor of the Overlord Salamander, Chen Ziyan felt that he had to find an opportunity to prepare a handy weapon for his puppet armor.
Otherwise, if you encounter a tough challenge, your bare hands will inevitably be insufficient in output.
