"If there is no power, we still have to notify Fushu City to provide us with power." Jingsi said.

"Okay, Fu Shuo, Dong Gong and I will go."

Dong Gong said: "Maybe it was the cable duct that was damaged by the wild snake. We saw that huge figure on the way back."

Lei Ling listened and said, "Does that legendary species really exist? It's been tens of thousands of years. I'll go with you."

They drove to Fushu City. See if the power supply can be smooth, otherwise life in Oasis City will be difficult to continue. There are no electric lights, no induction cookers, and insufficient water supply due to the lack of water pumps.

Lei Ling speculated that the wild snake lived near the liquid mine pit and moved to the vicinity of the Oasis City due to the destruction of the underground water layer. Wild snakes usually live in the middle layer, but recently they have moved to the surface.

"Those car thieves are looking for liquid mines. Have the original liquid mines been mined out?"

"What is this liquid mine used for?" Yonghan asked.

"Liquid mines are used to make sand-proof devices, masks, buildings, vehicles, etc. Common materials are used to make filters. Some are sand-proof, but not breathable; some are breathable, but sand leaks out. Liquid mines It can absorb air and spit out the waste gas from the isolation layer," Jingsi said.

"Is it like a liquid robot? It can change its form freely."

"It doesn't need to be so advanced, and it doesn't need to be controlled. It processes sand particles in a passive state."

There were some things he saw for the first time and had never heard of before. A huge wild snake, a liquid mine with magical filtering effect, and a water-exploring plant that explores the source of water. Moreover, the logical relationship between these things is a bit messy, so I need to think about it carefully.

There are liquid mines in the desert and wild snakes grow there.

Liquid minerals can filter out sand. However, liquid mining caused the wild snakes to change their living environment.

Water-exploring strains were cultivated in the experimental fields to prevent sand and protect forests. But it caused the wild snake to approach.

The wild snake caused the cable to break.

Exploring water plants and liquid mines leads to the arrival of car thieves.

Exploring water plants and liquid mines were originally treasures, but they also became the cause of cable damage.

Not just technology, many things are double-edged swords in themselves. They have a beneficial side, but they may also harm people's interests intentionally or unintentionally.

Several people drove to Fushu City, where the power plant uses the desert to generate electricity. Deserts are characterized by high temperatures during the day and low temperatures at night. There are many sets of generators underground around the city. There are two confined spaces in the generator. High temperature in one confined space leads to high pressure, and low temperature in the adjacent confined space leads to low pressure. When the partition is opened, high-pressure gas flows to low-pressure gas, pushing the impeller to rotate, thereby causing the generator to generate electricity.

The generator here is working normally, it seems that the wild snake has not arrived here yet.

Dong Gong made a phone call and contacted Geng Gong, "Hello, I haven't heard from you for a long time. Now Oasis City has no power supply, so we can only get power from you."

"Okay, there is enough power here to provide you with electricity. Mr. Dong, I haven't been here to move around for such a long time."

"It's so far away and there's so much sand, so it's not convenient to get out, hehe."

Geng Gong ran out to greet him.

"It's so troublesome. Do you have to come here and explain it clearly before you can supply power?"

"What's going on?"

"Cables at the solar farm were down and backup power was running out."

"I haven't seen such a power outage in so many years. Got it, we will supply power as soon as possible."

Fushu City is larger, with a sand-proof wall and sand-proof forest outside, and a variety of office buildings and residential buildings inside the wall. There are more multi-story buildings. There is still a lot of sand on the ground.

"When you come to Fushu City, there is another thing. To drive away the wild snakes, you need to borrow something, a sound wave transmitter, to adjust the frequency to a frequency they don't like. It's like the equipment used to drive away birds at the airport." Dong Gong explain.

"Can't I use this to drive away wild snakes?"

"That's it. This one was robbed by a group of car thieves... They may have been eyeing this for a long time. It has been kept in the new technology equipment warehouse."

"Then they also use it to drive away wild snakes?" Fu Shuo said.

"Then where can we find these car thieves?" Yonghan said.

"By the way, the Beidou locator is here." Dong Gong said.

"What locator? Where is the locator? One is a water detection plant, and the other is a sound wave transmitter."

"One of the water-exploring seedlings that were just about to be planted has a Beidou locator placed on it. Recently, some of the seedlings that have been transplanted every quarter have been placed with locators to send location information and growth conditions."

"Then go back to the central control room and have a look."

"I can see it with my mobile phone. I can open the webpage and log in to view some webpages that explore the locations of water plants."

After logging in, look for the location of the latest batch of seedlings and find them in a cave a few kilometers to the west.

The off-road vehicle drove Yonghan, Fu Shuo, Lei Ling and Dong Gong to the west. At a height of 200 meters, they observed the ground and found that the road conditions were complex and multiple vehicle tracks were crossing. Yonghan chose the middle path, drove for about half an hour, and passed over a dinner plate box. This road was originally opened by car thieves and was discontinued. I saw a rut on the north side with obvious traces. Yonghan thought that the road to the north might be the sand road leading to Shandong. The buggy rides along the road, bumping evenly.

Looking up, you see the blue sky, and in the distance ahead you see the vast sea of ​​sand, all gray and yellow. There are some flat salty areas along the way. Yonghan thought, there is a Gobi area ahead, and we are almost reaching the cave, so we should go around to the back of the cave. They drove forward to find it. However, after driving for another 2 hours and still not finding the target, I realized that the fuel would soon be exhausted. Also leave enough fuel for return.

It turns out that it has been going in circles for a long time. Still not in the cave, they put on helmets and goggles to protect themselves from the sand and started hiking to find this glimmer of hope. I am not absolutely sure whether there is a road ahead or whether I can reach it.

Just rely on the locator and walk towards the target point on the locating website. Gradually approach the cave marked on the page.

Four people went around the cave. Voices came from inside. It turned out to be these car thieves. There was no one guarding it, because no one would have thought that they could actually follow the locator and travel a long distance here.

Ju said: "One is to attract snakes, and the other is to drive snakes away. With these two treasures, we can tame this wild snake."

One is to attract snakes and refers to water-exploring plants. One is to drive away snakes, which refers to the sound wave transmitter.

Hae said: "You are quite far-sighted. This snake can find what we are looking for."

What else are they looking for! Don't you rely on water exploration to find liquid minerals?

Fu Shuo said: "I'm almost dizzy. I rely on detecting water plants to find liquid deposits. I rely on sound wave transmitters to drive away snakes. Wouldn't snakes destroy the excavation system?"

There was a loud wind and sand outside, so they went around behind a group of car thieves and put away the two shotguns.

Dong Gong took out his arresting stick. It turned out that he also worked as a security guard. "Don't move. You rob, shoot and injure people. Now come back to Oasis City with us."

Only then did the car thieves realize that there were people next to them, and they stood up one after another. Two strong men stood in front of them.

Dong Gong said coldly: "What, you two, do you want to fight alone before a group fight?"

Looking at the people rushing towards them, Dong Gong sneered, jumped forward, and actually took the initiative to meet them. He had no experience in group fights, but he knew how to avoid attacks first, and then attack the opponent's vital points. The seizure stick was pointed at the strong man's chest. A frontal attack, with the impact of the stick and the anesthetic effect, the two strong men fell to the ground one after another.

Hae said: "You guys go up and fight me." He ran towards the path behind and rushed to the car.

Other car thieves were beaten in vain, and they all fell to the ground with a few muffled sounds. They took the car and stole it back.
