Yingzi, who started his own business, moved very quickly. It didn't take long for him to set up a series of terrifying traps centered on their camp.
Chen Ziyan, who accompanied the whole process, was shocked after seeing the finished product, because the trap was far more powerful than he imagined.
He made some simulations in his mind and found that if he was trapped, there would be no other way to escape except using his physique far beyond ordinary people to resist the attack and rushing out regardless.
The animal traps on the outside are okay, but the animal traps on the inside are unsolvable in a sense.
Because there are not only traps, but also a group of dogs trained by Yingzi. Taken alone, these two are not fatal to the strong, but when the dogs and the traps are combined, something strange happens. The chemical effect turns the trap area into a dragon's pool and a tiger's den in an instant, and the lethality increases exponentially.
Even Yingzi, who created all this himself, hesitated a little after the completion. He looked at Chen Ziyan and asked:
"Brother Chen, how about I change the trap?"
She had just been contemplating the power of the traps, but now she suddenly realized that with the lethality of these traps at this time, if someone who did not believe in evil really broke in, there would definitely be no way to survive.
"Don't worry." Chen Ziyan comforted her softly, and then explained to her: "Didn't we set up non-dangerous traps around the perimeter? People who come will know what to do when they see those traps. If they still insist on going their own way, they must have evil intentions. There is no need to pity these unscrupulous people. Even if something happens to them, it cannot be blamed on other people."
How could such a perfect defensive measure take the initiative to weaken it? Chen Ziyan wished he could improve it even more.
And he didn't think there was a problem with what he did. Just like he explained to Yingzi, setting up a circle of animal traps on the outside that would not hurt lives was enough to show his attitude.
Legs are something that grows on your body. If someone really insists on coming uninvited, there is nothing Chen can do about it.
Speaking of which, this can be regarded as a courtesy first and a soldier later, and it can be said anywhere.
Yingzi thought about it and found that what Chen Ziyan said did make sense. Back in the old forest, the hunters didn't care about these things when setting traps. At most, they would leave some marks that their peers could understand.
Now they have set up a warning trap outside, which is enough to be benevolent and righteous. How much more do they want them to do.
As long as the visitors say hello casually, they will know that if they don't want to say hello, they are probably people with malicious intentions, and it is not a pity for such people to die.
"Well, Brother Chen, you are right." After thinking about this, Yingzi nodded heavily.
Then he asked: "Brother Chen, I have some medicine here, should we use it too?"
"Medicine?" Chen Ziyan asked doubtfully.
"My uncle left it for me before he left. He said it could be used when setting traps." Yingzi replied.
Chen Ziyan probably knew what the medicine was, but he shook his head: "There's no need to use it here, this is enough for now."
Although it would be safer to coat the traps' killing weapons with poison, the current situation is different from their usual situation, so it is better to avoid poisoning as much as possible.
After finishing speaking, Chen Ziyan took Yingzi back to the camp and began to study the map he got from the camp there.
This is something that everyone over there has, a detailed topographic map of this area. For others, it only saves the work of exploration, but for Chen Ziyan, it allows him to directly find the location of the snake mine.
Sure enough, it was not beyond Chen Ziyan's expectation. After he spread out the map, he quickly found the location of the snake mine on it.
While Chen Ziyan and Yingzi were studying what to do next.
In a tent inside the camp, Wu Laogou and Li Wu sat opposite each other.
Looking at Wu Laogou who was drinking tea calmly, Li Wu smiled and brought the topic to Chen Ziyan: "Fifth Master, I wonder how much you know about Mr. Chen from Xiling?"
He and Chen Ziyan had friction anyway, so he wanted to know more about each other.
"He was also invited by you, right? Don't you know his background?" Wu Laogou did not answer, but asked in surprise.
But he didn't expect Li Wu to ask this. According to Wu Laogou's understanding of this operation, everyone should be called by the organization where the other party works.
The difference is nothing more than calling and inviting.
It seemed like he was invited here because he was very familiar with the manager in Hangzhou and had another purpose.
Wu Laogou suddenly thought of the conversation he had with Chen Ziyan. At that time, he thought the other person was pretending to be a newbie, but now it seemed that the other person really didn't know anything.
"I really don't know about this. Don't say it's me. Many people in the bureau know such a person, but there are no more detailed information." Li Wu smiled bitterly.
If he knew the details of Chen Ziyan, he wouldn't be worried here.
"That's it..." Wu Laogou gently rubbed the tea cup with his fingers, and then said slowly: "Actually, I don't know much about this guy. He seemed to appear out of nowhere, and he started a group of people in a short period of time. It’s a team, and it’s not like we have a lot of odds, they are taking the museum route and have a private museum in the capital.”
"Private museum?" Li Wuya felt a little pain.
Although he has always been here, it does not mean that he does not understand what it means to open a private museum in the capital.
Wu Laogou felt something was wrong. He looked into Li Wu's eyes and asked, "You don't know about the museum?"
"I don't know." Li Wu shook his head, but then he reacted: "Fifth Master, do many people know about this?"
"Everyone knows the boundaries of the capital!" Wu Laogou said word by word.
Da da da--
Li Wu knocked on the marching table in front of him, his face turned ugly: "Everyone in the capital knows things, but I don't know anything. Okay! Okay!"
The intelligence of their branch is shared with the main bureau, and now that everyone knows this information, he doesn't even have a letter here, which means it is self-evident.
Wu Laogou took a sip of tea and asked, "How many people do you have in the camp? I'm talking about those who came to help."
He didn't ask this out of good intentions, but he realized the complexity of the situation and asked it for his own sake.
Li Wu said with a gloomy face: "Almost not."
There are indeed some strange people in their place, but those people are not good at this, so the helpers summoned for this trip are under the leadership of the General Administration.
"Then you might as well persuade them not to go to Chen Ziyan later." Wu Laogou suggested with a hint.
Hearing his words, Li Wu's expression suddenly changed and he looked at him: "Fifth Master, is this not safe?"
He understood what Wu Laogou meant, that he wanted to use a knife to kill people and use Chen Ziyan's hand to help them eliminate people with ulterior motives.
If he doesn't care, then maybe only a few people will be interested, but if he emphasizes too much not to go, then at least half of the people will be interested.
But no one is a fool. If something happens to him because of this, he will most likely end up with an unhappy ending.
Chen Ziyan's side was very mysterious to him, and so were the people in the camp.
Wu Laogou nodded and said calmly: "It is indeed a bit risky, but compared to making trouble at a critical moment, this will minimize the loss."
"You don't have to worry about Chen Ziyan. Based on what he has done and when he is prepared, those people are nothing to him." As if he guessed Li Wu's worries, Wu Laogou continued.
He didn't just say this casually. Although he and Chen Ziyan only met for the first time, based on the other person's past deeds, he knew exactly what kind of person he was.
"Fifth Master, if you can, why don't you tell me about the new leader of Xiling?" Li Wu thought for a while and said.
He wanted to get to know Chen Ziyan first before deciding what to do next.
He no longer believed in the information provided by the General Administration, so he wanted to find out something from Wu Laogou.
Wu Laogou did not hide anything and directly told what he knew. It even included what Chen Ziyan had done in the snowy area some time ago. Except for the Golmud incident that had not yet spread, everything else was basically included in it. .
"This guy..." Li Wu's expression changed after hearing this, and he was suddenly a little lucky that he didn't really break up with the other party.
Judging from Chen Ziyan's behavior, if things really get into trouble, he may not have a chance to get out of this mountain.
Although he is backed by the Folklore Affairs Administration, the signature of the Folklore Affairs Administration may not be easy to use when facing some ruthless people.
Moreover, from Wu Laogou's story, he came to a conclusion that the other party didn't even know, that is, the leader of Xieling who suddenly appeared might have some kind of connection with their organization.
After all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Li Wu took a breath and said: "Fifth Master, I plan to visit Master Chen later. Do you want to come with me?"
Li Wu decided to take the initiative to turn enemies into friends. Compared with the minor conflicts with Chen Ziyan, the problems in the camp were more serious.
And he felt that the other party might know something, otherwise he wouldn't be so hostile to the people in the camp.
Based on this, both parties can cooperate.
Wu Laogou smiled and waved his hand: "I'll forget it. I'm getting older and I'm a little tired from the journey. I need to take a rest."
He didn't want to get involved in this matter. The main purpose of Wu Laogou's coming was to prove that he was not in Hangzhou, and he didn't care whether he could complete the task or not.
With a pack of dogs guarding him, he didn't worry about his own safety.
This is also the reason why he dares to come here alone. If it were other leaders, they would not be surrounded by people wherever they go.
"Then Mr. Wu, please have a good rest. I'll go out and take a look first." Li Wu did not force himself and said goodbye immediately.
Time passed little by little, and soon it was night.
After Li Wu finished handling some matters in the camp, he quietly left the camp through the secret passage in his tent.
As the person who built this camp, he left himself a way out from the beginning, but he didn't want to use it now.
Without any of his subordinates, Li Wu left the camp, took a slight detour, and headed in the direction where Chen Ziyan left.
Not long after Li Wu stepped into the forest, he, with his rich experience, discovered the animal traps on the periphery.
At first he didn't pay too much attention, but when he found that these traps were evenly formed in a circle, he immediately noticed something was wrong. After seeing that there was a distance between the traps inside and the traps outside, Li Wuhou knew what was going on. Feeling understood.
The traps he discovered were just warnings, and the real killing moves were the previous ones.
After thinking of this, he still didn't understand what Chen Ziyan meant. This was a warning to trespassers.
Li Wu understood that as long as he spoke openly, he could be welcomed in easily. But the problem was that the reason why he came here at this time was that he didn't want to be known.
You don't need to think about it to know that there must be other people hiding in the forest at this moment.
"ah--"
Just when Li Wu was hesitating whether to take the initiative to speak out, a scream suddenly came from the depths of the forest in front of him.
Obviously, someone who was not afraid of death entered the trap inside.
After hesitating for a while, Li Wu's figure hidden in the shadows moved and began to retreat towards the way he came.
After listening to Wu Laogou's story, he knew that Chen Ziyan should not be judged by his age, and it was definitely not a good idea to break into the trap he had specially set.
Although he has confidence in his own strength, the artifact in his hand is not the kind to restrain traps, so he does not want to take the risk of entering this jungle that looks like a maw of an abyss.
After thinking about it again and again, Li Wu decided to find an excuse to come directly to Chen Ziyan tomorrow morning. Although it would make some vigilant people aware of it, it was not a bad thing.
After all, his purpose is just to complete this mission successfully, not to catch all the ulterior motives. If the other party leaves because of this, it will save him the trouble.
As for the person who was stumbling upon him behind his back, he would have plenty of time to explore it after the matter was over.
Li Wu knew very well what was important and what was important. The most important thing for him now was to get the matter on hand done.
Maybe the other party gave him wrong and insufficient information just to delay his work.
Chen Ziyan didn't know what Li Wu was thinking at this moment. He was standing by the campfire, looking at the dark jungle in a daze.
Naturally, he heard the short scream before. He even watched the trap being set up and knew what kind of trap the other party fell into based on the location of the sound.
Chen Ziyan was mentally prepared for someone to show up uninvited tonight, but he didn't expect those people to be so impatient.
Even though it was pitch dark in this mountain forest, especially today when dark clouds covered the moon, it was hard to see even if you stretched out your hand, but the visibility was not very high either.
But the actual time was only around eight o'clock. If the nightlife in the city had just begun, even in a place like this, no one would go to bed now.
And the other party touched him at this time, which obviously didn't take him seriously.
With a sigh secretly, Chen Ziyan touched the head of the little fairy in his arms and whispered: "That's enough, let your men take action."
