"Little friend Chen, isn't it inappropriate to choose the underground palace to stay?" Wu Laogou hesitated for a moment and asked after hearing Chen Ziyan's plan.
Wu Laogou was not surprised at all that Chen Ziyan would have such an idea.
The camp was only temporarily set up, and the existing problems were very obvious, and it is not difficult for people with some relevant experience to see it.
Even if Chen Ziyan was negligent, he would take the initiative to remind him.
But Wu Laogou was somewhat dissatisfied with the new location chosen by Chen Ziyan. He felt that the underground palace had been occupied by the Wang family before, and the other party must have been operating there for a long time, and it was very likely that he was hiding there. There are some behind-the-scenes tricks that they can't find at the moment.
If this kind of backhand is detonated at a critical moment, the problems that arise will be fatal.
Wu Laogou, who has been living in the world for decades, now mostly focuses on stability, so he thinks it is better to choose an underground fortress as a place to live. This will undoubtedly be safer and more reliable. Take control.
"Just keep it in your mind. I know there are some hidden dangers in the underground palace, but I already have a plan to deal with it." Faced with Wu Laogou's worries, Chen Ziyan showed confidence, He continued: "Fifth Master, this is what I planned..."
Chen Ziyan didn't show any concern and directly expressed his thoughts.
If it were anyone else, it would really be difficult to solve this problem, or even do nothing about it.
After all, if there is really a mechanism hidden in the underground palace, it will definitely not be exposed openly, nor will they find it casually.
But is he, Chen, an ordinary person?
Obviously not!
As for the problems that Wu Laogou was worried about, Chen Ziyan had actually figured out a way to deal with them as early as when he made the decision.
Chen Ziyan prepared two steps for this. In fact, strictly speaking, these so-called two steps can also be regarded as two response plans, but they were spliced together by Chen Ziyan.
Well...the main focus is rigor!
In fact, in terms of stability, Chen Ziyan is not much inferior to Wu Laogou, but he usually behaves more vigorously and resolutely in his work, so people who don’t know him fail to see the lowest level of stability. tone.
Chen Ziyan planned to let the dogs conduct a blanket search of the underground palace to find all the places with abnormal smells.
Although they have limited manpower now, they are not short of dogs, and they are all well-trained fierce dogs, not to mention there are several dog kings inside. Doing this kind of thing is just a matter of hands. take.
In order to prevent the Wang family from being prepared and cleaning up the traces in advance, Chen Ziyan had the next step.
That is to use Xiling's method of hearing the mountain to identify the dragon and obtain the outline of the underground palace through the echo.
In fact, it stands to reason that Chen Ziyan can only use the latter, but he has not mastered the skills yet, and his hearing is much worse than his uncle. Although it is not a problem to cope with a space of the size of the underground palace, there is something in his heart. I was a bit unsure, so I finally chose a two-pronged approach.
He can't guarantee anything else, but Chen Ziyan dares to say that as long as he completes this set of combos, it will be difficult for the underground palace to have any secrets at the physical level.
As for some non-physical arrangements, they cannot be solved by conventional means, but Chen Ziyan doesn't care much about this.
Because he is very clear about that type of method and the conditions required are complicated. Even if the Wang family has it, it is impossible to arrange it here.
If the Wang family can successfully capture the Snake Mine, they may build one underground, but they will definitely not waste it on an underground palace that functions like a bridgehead.
"That's it..." Hearing this, Wu Laogou nodded slowly: "It's feasible."
Wu Laogou didn't have much confidence in the previous steps because he had to carry his dog with him all year round. He knows best that there are some agencies that even the Dog King cannot detect in advance.
But after hearing the method of Wenshan Distinguishing Dragons, his worries completely subsided.
Although Chen Ziyan said that his level was not yet up to par, he had dealt with Xieling back then, but he had heard the relevant news and knew very well what the master of this secret art was like.
Thinking back to the time when the leader of the bandits from Xieling led his troops to Pingshan, stood on the cliff, and understood the layout of the underground palace at the bottom of the cliff with just three gunshots, we can know how powerful the method of identifying dragons by hearing the mountain is.
So Wu Laogou has no doubt whether Chen Ziyan, who claims to be an inexperienced man, can cope with the underground palace next to him.
It is a small underground palace, but you are still in it, how can you not hear something?
After eliminating the possible hidden dangers of the underground palace, Wu Laogou reviewed the game again and found that the underground palace was indeed more suitable.
The underground fortress can only be said to be retreatable and defensive, but there is another underground palace that can be advanced and attacked. There is no need to say which one to choose.
After exchanging a few words, the three of them got down to business.
They disassembled and gathered together all the materials that could be used in the camp, and then made several simple carts to transport their dogs to the underground palace in batches.
After all this was done, Chen Ziyan asked the two of them to take the dogs there first, while he went to the supply warehouse next to the canteen, saying that he wanted to collect some food and water.
But this is just Chen Ziyan's excuse. It is an undoubted fact that there is a secret room of the Wang family in the camp. How can he dare to use these supplies now.
He himself has the blood of Shennong and is invulnerable to all poisons. Naturally, he is not afraid of the other party's manipulation of it, but the others are still mortal bodies, and the dogs under his hands do not have similar abilities. , so it’s better to be careful in this regard.
Chen Ziyan seemed to be picking and choosing in the warehouse, but in fact he didn't take anything. He just took the opportunity to take out the supplies stored in his personal space.
Although he didn’t prepare many things, they were all compressed food. It would be no problem to take them out for a day or two, and the backup force would arrive soon, so there was no need to worry too much about this. .
If that doesn’t work, you can still use local materials.
Below the underground palace is the underground space, where there are so many black-haired snakes that they can be supplied for ten or twenty years, let alone ten and a half days.
Time passed little by little, and it was evening in a blink of an eye.
At this time, Chen Ziyan had already successfully built a simple fortification on the underground palace. Although it was only the size of a bedroom, it had all the functions.
Unless you use rocket launchers and explosive packs directly, it is difficult to penetrate the fortification walls with ordinary bullets alone.
In the process of building this fortification, Wushuanggui and Huahu also returned to Chen Ziyan one after another and provided him with great help, allowing him to complete his plan before the sun set. The fortifications in the city were built.
Although Wu Laogou and Yingzi can both do the work of Puppet Armor, they are far behind in terms of strength. Coupled with a girl and an old man, Chen Ziyan cannot control them too much. Therefore, the efficiency is naturally much lower than that of Puppet Armor.
The only regret for Chen Ziyan is that Huahu failed to bring back the escaped Wang family, but there is nothing that can be done about it. The Wang family should have had backup plans for this. When Huahu arrived at the end of the secret passage, the exit had completely collapsed and was tightly blocked by falling gravel and soil. How could Huahu catch up? "I didn't expect that my friend is an expert in this field." Wu Laogou admired Chen Ziyan's work.
Earlier, he thought that the fortress mentioned by Chen Ziyan was just a fake.
I didn’t expect that this young man actually had two brushes, and he did create a simple bunker.
Whether it is the construction method of the sandbags or the structure of the shooting hole, it shows that Chen Ziyan has studied this.
It's just that due to the limitations of materials and time, he couldn't make it perfect, but it was enough.
"Fifth Master is overly praised. I just learned a few tricks from my friends." Chen Ziyan said with a smile.
He learned this skill from Hu Bayi last time in the snowy area.
He is someone who has been on the battlefield, that is the real expert.
Wu Laogou smiled and did not say much on this topic. Instead, he looked at the ground around him and asked:
"Is there any more decoration underground? ?”
Although the surrounding ground still looked normal, Wu Laogou, who had been following Chen Ziyan, didn't know that, with their area as the core, many traps had been dug by the weasels under Chen Ziyan.
He felt that if these traps were simply to trap people, it would be a huge waste. It would be better to place some ground thorns inside. Anyway, the Wang family is undoubtedly the enemy, so there is no need to be polite.
As for enemies, only dead ones are good enemies.
"Those will leave loopholes." Chen Ziyan shook his head, and then explained: "These traps are more for early warning."
Why didn't he want to add ground thorns to the traps? , there is no shortage of trees here, and they can be processed easily.
But these traps are built directly underground, and in order to prevent collapse, the passages between them are very narrow. Except for weasels who can walk freely, there is no way for people to enter.
If they want to add more killing methods inside, they can only start from the ground, but no matter how cautious they are when doing it, they will inevitably leave traces.
If this resulted in the failure of the active purpose, it would simply be a loss outweighing the gain, so after some consideration, Chen Ziyan gave up the idea of increasing lethality.
“So that’s it.”
Wu Laogou immediately understood that Chen Ziyan was planning to hold on until reinforcements arrived.
These traps scattered around are not meant to trap enemies, but are mainly used as warnings to avoid being caught unawares before being approached.
"Fifth Master, now that the enemy is hidden and we are clear, there is no need for us to fight to the death with them. As long as we hold on to this place, they can't afford it." Chen Ziyan dusted off the dirt on his body and said lightly.
He is very clear about their advantage over the Wang family, and that is four words - upright and upright!
It is not difficult to see from Lu Ziyu's attitude that the Wang family can only hide in the shadows and engage in small tricks, so why should he have to fight with them head-on? Anyway, even if all the intruders are wiped out, There's no way to completely deal with the Wang family, so it's better to just drag them along like this.
The longer it takes, the more obvious Chen Ziyan’s advantage will be. By then, the Wang family may not be able to handle it.
Wu Laogou was about to nod, but suddenly thought of a question that had been ignored before, and asked quickly:
"What about the fortress under the ground? Will this compromise one thing and the other?"
Being busy all the time, he subconsciously ignored this problem. Now that he suddenly thought about it, he couldn't help but feel a little headache.
After all, there are only three of them. Even with the help of dogs, they can only defend one place.
And they have been busy here and have not made any arrangements in the underground fortress. Now I am afraid it is too late.
"Leave it to them for the time being." Chen Ziyan had no good way to deal with this, but his subsequent words made Wu Laogou smile. He only heard him add: "The relevant research materials have been packaged. I gave it to Lu Ziyu, and when I left, I destroyed all the protective clothing there."
Wu Laogou, who has been to the underground fortress, knows very well what the most important thing is there. , nothing more than staff, research materials, mechanical instruments, and protective clothing that can penetrate deep into the snake mine.
Now Chen Ziyan came directly to make a big bargain. There were only instruments that could not be moved in the underground fortress, but it was useless to put the instruments there. Research work cannot produce results in a short time.
“You young people are still smart!” Wu Laogou joked with a smile.
He was also thinking about his rich experience in the world, and planned to check for Chen Ziyan's mistakes. Unexpectedly, this guy looked young, but he was not an ordinary veteran in doing things, and he considered every aspect very carefully.
This made Wu Laogou feel more and more that his choice to cooperate with Chen Ziyan was a wise choice.
He even began to wonder whether he should find a way to expand this cooperation, not just limit it here, but develop it into a cooperation between Xiling and the Wu family.
As for bringing in the entire Nine Gates, Wu Laogou has never even thought about it. Firstly, he cannot make the decision for the other eight families. Secondly, he feels that the Nine Gates are becoming more and more unfamiliar. .
The reason why I want to cooperate more with Chen Ziyan is actually to leave a way out for myself.
In fact, Wu Laogou is a person with a strong sense of worry. This can be seen from his layout over the years. Whether it is building dog factories in various places or cooperating with corresponding departments, it is all in order to make the Wu family Be more risk-resistant.
"It's just some cleverness." Chen Ziyan said modestly.
While speaking, his eyes were constantly scanning the surrounding ground, as if he could see through the surface and directly see the dug space below.
In fact, there is one more thing Chen Ziyan did not say, that is, these underground traps are not one-time products, and will have other uses in the future.
Because of the existence of the underground palace, he did not plan to limit his new camp to the ground in the future, so he planned to build a two-story camp directly in accordance with the standards of a bunker, with the underground palace as the core.
At that time, these traps can be used directly, which can save a lot of time.
However, there was no need to mention this kind of thing, so Chen Ziyan did not say it. (End of this chapter)
