"You guessed it right.
However, it may not be feasible to use the infrared function of the drone to monitor Captain Dong.
You know, he can disguise himself as the infrared signal of the sheep and get close to us.
Even if a group of nocturnal sheep are very deliberate, what can we do if we know it? Can we still prevent the sheep from eating night grass? "
The drone has been flying for a day today. Bai Ning is also aware of this secret surveillance drama, but Jiang Yingxue has not yet experienced the level of cunning of Captain Dong personally, so she reminded him aloud.
"Unexpectedly, this is a boat runner who is good at hiding.
Did you already know him so well after you had a brief confrontation with him? "
Jiang Yingxue seemed to be just asking a very ordinary question, but in fact she was insinuating that Bai Ning was too cautious and took Captain Dong too seriously.
"If the prediction is correct, he is a person who is good at considering issues from the other party's perspective, and he is also a person who will not take risks easily.
Therefore, once such a person appears, he will definitely have the upper hand.
He is probably well aware of the level of technology we may have in our hands. "
Bai Ning's tone was light, as if he wanted to reverse the scornful mood swings in Jiang Yingxue's heart.
It was obvious that the serious injury experience of that boatman did not have much warning effect on Jiang Yingxue.
Come to think of it, there were no dead people, so in Jiang Yingxue's view, he was not a ruthless person.
However, the reason why Captain Dong did not kill people in the first place was simply because the blood of living people was more valuable.
"So, some conventional little tricks can't do anything to the runner.
So, what conspiracy do you want to use to set him up? "
Seeing that Bai Ning attached so much importance to him, Jiang Yingxue became more interested in the trapping plan in Bai Ning's mind.
"It's just some little tricks that don't make sense.
Whether he can appear, whether he will appear, and whether he is willing to take risks for some established temptations is completely unknown. It is still too early to talk about these things. "
Bai Ning's refusal to disclose the entrapment plan either meant that she, Jiang Yingxue, had already been included in the plan, or that the plan might still be brewing.
Jiang Yingxue didn't want to delve into this.
He is already within the hunting range of dangerous people. Whether it is dangerous or not is not determined by Bai Ning's actions.
There is no point in talking about the rest. No matter how cunning the other party is, the dark night is the best opportunity for the other party to reveal his flaws.
Furthermore, the opponent may only have one person, so taking advantage of the large number of people to consume the opponent's energy reserves is also a good strategy to weaken the enemy.
Some personnel were left to guard the camp, while all other personnel went to the area identified by Bai Ning to search for buried relics.
Since following Bai Ning and seeing more and more secrets of the world, Liu Cheng was also very excited about the night action at this time. Carrying a mountaineering bag with dragon-patterned slate on his back, he only felt that he was the protagonist of tonight's action.
However, after climbing a mountain at a high altitude for a while, Liu Cheng's energetic energy collapsed immediately, and he fell to the end of the team with Professor Huang, who was also out of breath. He felt like a pair of grandfathers and grandchildren on the run.
Regarding this situation, Bai Ning blocked Jiang Yingxue's intention to send more people to protect Liu Cheng. It seemed that he wanted to use Liu Cheng, who fell at the end of the team, to lure Captain Dong into doing something out of bounds.
Although she knew the drone was useless, Jiang Yingxue still insisted on keeping this aerial view. This false sense of control might be able to work wonders at critical moments.
The first hillside was quickly reached. This area has huge mountains and gentle slopes, which is very conducive to city construction. The larger stress-bearing area can also slow down the tsunami's impact to a certain extent.
Precisely because of the gentle slope, the accumulated floating ash soil layer in this area is very thick, and the vegetation is denser than other mountain areas, so more sheep gather there.
Looking around, the Tibetan sheep in the circle of light are either kneeling and chewing grass on the hillside, or they are still slowly eating the tender grass on the hillside. Occasionally, a few shy sheep will run away as soon as the light shines on them.
At this moment, Bai Ning and his party are the intruders on this hillside. If someone were to hide here in sheepskin in advance, the drones in the sky would really not be able to detect them.
As the crowd got closer, a large number of sheep ran away, leaving only a few bold sheep standing there, squinting at the people coming and continuing to nibble on the grass at the foot of the mountain.
These obvious infrared targets all fell into the field of view of the drone. Through night vision goggles, it was found that these were perfectly normal Tibetan sheep.
After confirming that nothing was found, Jiang Yingxue waved her hand lazily, signaling the bodyguards to disperse, and began to carefully search the hillside as quickly as possible.
The bodyguards were poking around with their elite trekking poles, and when they encountered thicker soil, they would use pickaxes to dig into it.
After searching for two or three hours, nothing was found. I don’t know whether it’s because the remnants of the ruins were buried too deep, or because there are simply no effective clues in this area.
"There's nothing, do you think we need to get a Luoyang shovel for fun?"
Taking advantage of the team's break, Jiang Yingxue looked at the stars in the sky and joked casually.
Beautiful scenery always needs a good time to set it off. For those who are tired and full of desires, the Milky Way and stars are just a colorful curtain and a meaningless fantasy picture.
“When necessary, it may be necessary.
However, there are more rocks than soil here. If we really encounter such a thick layer of soil, it means that we may have really found a treasure. "
Bai Ning's speculation was quite simple, which added a bit of relaxed fun to the sky full of stars, and also set a definite direction for their subsequent advancement.
"Bosses, what time do you get off work tonight?"
Liu Cheng, who was peeking over from the side, saw that the conversation between the two was very relaxed. Feeling that he could steal the chicken, he quickly stepped forward to strike up a conversation.
This was done day and night in the plateau area, and sooner or later his body with thin arms and legs would be exhausted.
"There is another hillside on this side of the river. After the search, let's go back to the camp."
When Liu Cheng heard this, his tired eyes immediately lit up.
Crossing the river is a troublesome thing. Being able to leave troublesome things until tomorrow is very consistent with Liu Cheng's style of doing things.
Eating and waiting to die is nothing more than leaving important things to do tomorrow.
After a short rest, the team set off again and conducted another busy search, but still found nothing.
It seems that all hopes are directed to the area across the river, until tomorrow.
The drone flew all night and found no abnormal infrared signals. It was as if Captain Dong, who was hiding in the dark, went to bed early due to high reflection.
All the conspiracies and calculations failed, leaving only a group of souls who had gained nothing and returned to the camp lonely.
After a while, the snoring began loudly in the camp. Almost as if in an instant, the cold sunshine from the plateau area once again shone on the deserted mountain top, slowly restoring some vitality to the camp that had been frozen all night.
It was not until eight or nine o'clock that the camp began to sort out the equipment for crossing the river. It was obvious that the high altitude had not been adapted in a short period of time, and everyone was exposed to the high-intensity physical labor.
There are no sheep on the other side of the river. The field of view of the aerial drone is quite clean. If there is an abnormal infrared signal, it can be observed at a glance.
I don’t know where Captain Dong is hiding. The team patrolling the mountain has almost searched the mountain, but they haven’t found anything unusual.
No trace of the ancient ruins was found at the highly suspicious location with great expectations, and no suspicious objects were found in the drone. This failed outcome did not show any sign of displeasure on Bai Ning's face. .
"We've only dug three feet into this hilltop, but we still haven't found anything. Why, are there any other highly suspicious locations to choose from?"
Jiang Yingxue asked this question slightly out of breath, not about future exploration plans, but about whether Bai Ning's current move of finding a needle in a haystack was really effective.
The entrance and exit area used to avoid tsunamis must not be too large, and it may extend inward for some distance. These possibilities are important obstacles that reduce their success rate of finding a needle in a haystack.
“After the Xiwangmu clan left this area, they did not come back again, which means that the clan that attacked them occupied this area for a long time.
At that time, there must have been a large number of building clusters here, but now there is nothing left here, which is very strange. "
Bai Ning seemed to not understand Jiang Yingxue's question and just told a question to himself.
This question vaguely points to the possibility that the many other clans that besieged the Queen Mother of the West eventually experienced a huge civil strife, leaving this area completely in ruins.
Not only that, the impact of this man-made disaster was extremely tragic, and there may even be some high-energy weapons left by the fourth civilization, causing all the buildings to become fragments. After thousands of years of wind and sun, they have been weathered into this piece of land. One of the many gravels in the river valley.
"You are saying that the place we are currently standing on is actually the place of prosperity in the past, and all the rubble and dust are the remnants of the original buildings.
If this is the case, then where is the crater where the high-energy weapons were detonated here? "
Jiang Yingxue's question directly pointed out the fatal weakness of Bai Ning's current guess.
A high-energy weapon like this that can destroy the entire river valley area must be a powerful being like the Father of Bombs, or even a nuclear bomb.
With such a powerful explosion, a huge lake must have appeared here, or part of a mountaintop must have been cut off.
But judging from the current overall geographical situation, this place does not look like the site of a large explosion.
The mountains and rivers are as usual, the fields are empty, and the scenery is just ordinary scenery in the world.
