The name matched, the background matched, it seemed that this was the right person.
Unexpectedly, this was really hard to find, and it took no effort to get it. Another NPC from the folklore game in the previous life appeared in such a coincidental way.
As for Fatty's narration, they are basically correct. This is indeed the setting in the folklore game in the previous life. At that time, the template of the Five Immortals in the Northeast was used for reference, and some magical changes were made based on the characteristics of the folklore, thus creating Ma Ling. This character.
She plays an important role in the game map outside Shanhaiguan, guiding players to complete a series of exploration tasks in Shanhaiguan and obtain rewards from Wujiaxian.
And because of her venomous and sarcastic character, in Feng Yun's previous life's imagination, the players would suffer greatly from her, which is also an interesting part of the game.
This quickly made Feng Yun interested. Originally, Ma Ling'er was among the candidates for his new team member.
Now that all these things have come together, perhaps it is God's will.
"Fat man, please contact Ma Ling'er again. No matter what reason you find, make sure she comes to see me as soon as possible."
Hearing Feng Yun's words, the fat man suddenly widened his eyes in surprise:
"Director, why are you looking for her?
This person is not easy to get along with, and she is also a money addict. If I can earn an extra penny from her, it will be a blessing to my ancestors.
I really don’t know, why does a pretty good-looking girl have such a poisonous tongue? "
Feng Yun didn't explain too much about this, because now he was only making a rough guess and was not completely sure that this person was the person he was looking for.
Under Feng Yun's order, Fatty could only think for a moment before dialing the number just now.
"Damn fat man, you'd better have something serious to do. If you do it just to brag, my aunt won't forgive you!"
It can be heard from the phone that this Ma Ling'er has a fierce personality and is even more good at talking.
Even Fatty, a good talker, was at a slight disadvantage.
"Miss Ma, don't you want a treasure? I really have a treasure here, at least a 500-year-old bronze.
do you want? I'll take action if you don't want it. "
"What, 500 years? Are you kidding me?"
"Sister, how can I have the free time to joke with you?
If you want to come here quickly, otherwise I will take action later. "
As the fat man spoke, he smiled slyly at Feng Yun.
Obviously, he just wanted to trick Ma Ling'er as soon as possible. He didn't have any ancient bronzes in his hand, let alone such precious bronzes that were over 500 years old.
Sure enough, after Ma Ling'er learned about this, she immediately became interested. After saying "send the address", she hung up the phone.
The fat man smiled at Feng Yun, and finally sent an address to Ma Linger, then looked at Feng Yun and said proudly:
"Director, okay, I can guarantee that she will be here tomorrow morning at the latest!"
"Okay, then you go and train."
After sending the fat man away, Feng Yun thought for a moment, picked up the phone dedicated to the military office, and called the Yanjun military office directly.
"Hey, Master Li? I heard that the commander-in-chief is back?"
"Yes, Director Feng, the general has just arrived today and is handling work. Do you have anything? I will transfer it for you..."
However, before the other end of the phone finished speaking, he was interrupted by a majestic voice: "Is it Director Feng's phone number? Give it to me."
"Hello, I'm Li Guowei."
"Commander, it's me, Feng Yun. I heard that you just came back. Do you have time recently?"
"I just wanted to talk to you about this. Didn't you always say that you would take me to see something? How about the day after tomorrow?"
"no problem."
Just like that, the two of them decided on a time.
Although they didn't explicitly mention the 'inspection', both of them knew it.
If he hadn't just returned to the military mansion and had a lot of accumulated work to deal with, as well as the urgent task of completing the tasks assigned by this meeting, Li Guowei might have wanted to leave to meet Feng Yun right now.
After hanging up the phone, Feng Yun stood by the window and looked out at the deserted street scene of Liuhuo Avenue.
"The Avenue of Flowing Fire is gradually starting to get lively..."
…
The next morning, just as the fat man said, a dusty figure appeared at the airport in Yanjun County.
To say that Fatty's aesthetics are indeed good, he is indeed good-looking as he said.
Ma Ling'er has long hair that falls over her shoulders, and her silhouette attracts many people to stop and stare.
Even if you don't look at the face, this figure alone is enough.
He is tall and tall, over 1.7 meters tall, with a neat and dashing aura. The most conspicuous thing is his pair of slender legs, which makes him stand out wherever he goes.
What's more, Ma Ling'er's facial features are also very delicate, with a pair of big watery eyes, and there is always a hint of worry in her eyes.
Such a beauty does seem a bit out of place with the aggressive personality shown on the phone.
But precisely because of this, Ma Ling'er also added a bit of a snake-like sense of danger to her beauty.
She didn't delay after arriving in Yan County and took the car straight to Liuhuo Avenue. However, because the place had just been renamed, she encountered some trouble finding the way.
Fortunately, there was a fat man to guide me, so I wasn't confused anymore. She originally planned to ask him to pick her up, but the fat man actually refused on the grounds that he was too busy with training. Ma Ling'er hated her so much that she decided to go to the antique street for a walk before going to the appointment to show off the damn fat man.
Fortunately, when passing by a certain street in Yanjun County, I accidentally discovered something interesting, which made Ma Ling'er feel a lot better.
"What's going on over there, Master?"
In the taxi, while waiting for the traffic light and looking at the street sign of 'Xiheli Road' in the distance, Ma Ling'er asked curiously.
When the master heard this, he looked over and saw that many people had gathered at the construction site on Xiheli Road. It seemed that there were government cars parked on the roadside?
"This construction site is for building a subway. It is said that our Yan County will soon have a subway, so maybe something happened to the project? Who knows."
"By the way, girl, you are going to the Flowing Fire Avenue, right? It used to be very peaceful there, and it was not called this name before. It was just a few days after the name was changed. When you asked me about it just now, I almost didn't react. You go What is this place for? Don’t go there at night, be careful!”
Following the driver's answers and chatter, the green light turned on and the taxi drove away, heading straight for Liuhuo Avenue.
The lively scene of Xiheli Road gradually disappears in the rearview mirror...
"boom!"
"Hey, we were just chatting and we rear-ended each other. Girl, please get down first."
…
The reason why Xiheli Road is so lively now is naturally because the area around Xiheli Road has been completely blocked, construction has stopped in all aspects, and everyone is waiting for the test results.
The laboratory department of the Qintiange Material Supervision also knew how much the city government attached great importance to this project, so they naturally did not dare to neglect it at all. They worked overtime overnight and issued a report early the next morning.
Liu Bing stayed up all night, anxiously waiting for the test results.
If this was human blood, it would be a big trouble. All projects would be stopped urgently. Even for Liu Bing, this was a major dereliction of duty.
Therefore, Liu Bing came to the scene in person early in the morning, anxiously waiting for the test results to be delivered.
The person in charge of the construction company is a man who wears a big gold chain and looks like a nouveau riche. At this moment, he is smiling and flattering Liu Bing, and he is still enjoying it.
But in this situation, how could Liu Bing still have such thoughts?
Fortunately, at this moment, a hurried figure ran from a distance, holding a report in his hand:
"City Lord! City Lord! The test results from the Qintiange Property Supervisor are here!"
Hearing this, Liu Bing's eyes suddenly lit up. It was the Minister of the City who brought a test report.
"What does the report say? What is it?"
Almost everyone on the entire construction site is looking here at this moment, and even the workers are worried that the project will be stopped suddenly.
Fortunately, at this time, the Minister of the City Government showed a smile and waved his hand excitedly:
"City Lord, the inspector produced the inspection report, and no blood components were detected in this liquid, which means it is not blood!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but then asked in confusion:
"It's not blood? What's that red pool? It also has a fishy smell. Everyone smelled it at the time."
The Minister of the City Government shook his head at this and said helplessly:
“Even the laboratory can’t detect this, but what they can confirm is that there is no blood component in this liquid, so they can basically conclude that it is not blood.
As for what exactly it is, it will take some time. "
"Oh, it doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's not blood.
City Lord, if we stop work for one day, our losses will be astronomical, and the construction schedule is tight and cannot be delayed! "
The person in charge of the construction party came to Liu Bing carelessly and began to make misery, and these words just touched Liu Bing's heart.
This project is the largest urban construction project in Yan County in recent years. Since Yan County is close to the sea, most places are not suitable for building subways.
However, Yanjun’s population has already met the requirements for launching a subway project. In order to implement the subway plan, the exploration team of the Sand Control Bureau spent nearly half a year on exploration and finally formulated a complete and implementable route.
The Sand Inspection and Quarantine Administration is affiliated to the Ministry of Industry, one of the six ministries in Dayan, and is in charge of geological exploration and other work.
Now, under the command of the Sand Control Bureau, other construction sites have started. If there is any deviation at the construction site on Xiheli Road, it means that the entire line is facing paralysis.
The initial investment before starting this project was too great, and Liu Bing was the one who least wanted to delay it.
“Since it’s not blood, everyone can rest assured.
To continue construction, we must ensure that the progress of the project is consistent with that of other construction sites! "
Liu Bing quickly issued the order, and the construction site, which had been silent just now, soon became lively again.
Large equipment was started one after another, and the roar was endless.
But for some reason, Liu Bing always felt a little uneasy in his heart, so that at this moment, he ignored the flying dust and still stared at the scene wearing a safety helmet.
Soon, several excavators started digging again, and the person in charge of the construction party shouted loudly to direct the workers to quickly start working.
Everything went smoothly for the next half hour, and Liu Bing breathed a sigh of relief.
That uneasy feeling may just be an illusion.
After calming down, Liu Bing turned around and left, planning to return to the city and report the latest construction status to the county government.
However, at this moment, the roar suddenly stopped. Liu Bing, who had already reached the intersection, turned around with a frown and looked towards the construction site.
Several excavators were seen stopping working one after another. The workers driving the excavators quickly jumped down from them, and a large number of people on both sides ran towards that direction.
"Oops, has something happened again?"
The uneasy feeling in Liu Bing's heart came over again, which made him quickly speed up the pace and rush forward with the crowd.
"Chief in charge, what happened again?"
The person in charge with a big belly ran over, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a flattering smile on his face:
"City Lord, it's nothing serious, we just dug up a nest of snakes in the ground!"
"snake?"
Liu Bing quickly came to the hole dug by the excavator and looked down. Only then did he see a nest of snakes entrenched more than one meter underground.
The snake's body is red, but the strange thing is that the snake's eyes are obviously out of proportion to its head.
This snake was more than two feet long, and there were some small snakes crawling densely around it.
As if it felt threatened, the big snake stared with a pair of weird eyes and made a constant warning sound.
Seeing this scene in his eyes, Liu Bing frowned.
It’s true that the house leaks only when it rains all night, and the boat leaks when the wind blows.
This project was originally urgent, but strange things happened frequently.
How could it be such a coincidence that a nest of snakes could be dug out here?
"City Lord, don't be anxious, we will deal with it immediately.
It's really weird, where did this nest of snakes come from? Have you always lived here? "
The person in charge was muttering and urging the workers around him:
"What the hell are you doing standing still? Get rid of this nest of snakes quickly and send them to a zoo or find a place to release them. In short, don't let them get in the way!"
The person in charge of the construction company has truly proven what it means to have a big head and thick neck. He is either a rich man or a cook.
He cursed and shouted at the workers, but the worker standing at the front said timidly:
"Head, there has always been a legend in my hometown.
It is said that if a snake is dug up in the ground, it means that the place is unlucky, and if the ground is broken, there may be a bloody disaster. "
"I bother!"
The person in charge suddenly glared:
"If you continue to act careless, I will make you suffer a bloody disaster right now.
Don't talk about useless things. Some people say that the snake belongs to Xiaolong. Then I also said that digging up this nest of snakes means that this place is a dragon vein.
Don't let me stand there, get rid of these snakes quickly. If you mess with them again, I'll deduct your money! "
The person in charge brought out his trump card. The workers looked at each other, but no one said anything.
Liu Bing, who was standing not far away, kept his brows furrowed. He looked at the nest of snakes in the pit, and the uneasy feeling came over him again.
He had never seen such a strange snake, all red and with strange eyes.
When the construction started yesterday, blood was first dug out, but later we found out it was a false alarm.
The construction work started today and another nest of strange snakes was dug up. Liu Bing's mood is quite complicated now that things have come together.
The workers quickly found a cage, used clamps to pick up the snakes and put them in the cage, and then called the dispatch department.
The Watch Division is the Dayan organization in charge of water and fire safety.
The nest of snakes will soon be taken away by the Chief of Police, who will choose a suitable location to release the snakes.
Then, at the urging of the person in charge, construction continued on the construction site, but all the workers were always muttering privately.
Liu Bing returned to the city with a lot of worries. Every time he thought about what happened today, he would feel uneasy.
Fortunately, there was no bad news after this, and everything seemed to be moving in a good direction.
As night fell, the construction site became quiet. The temporary dormitory not far away was brightly lit. The workers were drinking beer and eating simple fast food, and were still discussing the matter of digging out snakes during the day.
The hole has been dug to a depth of tens of meters, and when viewed from above, it gives people an eerie feeling.
"clang!"
However, at this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the pit...
