Chapter 3 Props
The Black Swamp Wilderness is in a mountain in the northeast.
Gao Yuan, the leader of the wildfire robber group, was nestled in the room where the stove was growing, wrapped in a fur coat, and flipping the sweet potatoes on the coal while roasting the fire.
"This dog-day winter!" He shook his legs and expressed his strong dissatisfaction with the weather.
With the resources he has, he can actually enjoy the treatment of turning on the air conditioner and blowing warm air, but he feels that the situation on the mountain is not as comfortable as the coal stove.
Gao Yuan, who was extremely energetic by the cold wind that seeped into the room, couldn't help but remember the experience of going to a big city in the past few years - the group of people on the top floor lived in winter as warm as early summer, and they only had to wear a single piece of clothing.
Gao Yuan had inquired at that time and was confused by a series of nouns. He only knew that the heat came from the hot water burned in the large boiler. They flowed along the pipes in different areas of the room, bringing the warmth like a fairyland.
After returning to this place he called Tongshan, he tried to transform his residence, but unfortunately he failed miserably and could only plan to go to a certain city to kidnap a few people who could do it.
At the same time, he thought that when he got older, he was no longer suitable for being a robber, so he took the accumulated resources, a few children and beautiful female slaves to settle in the big forces...
That's comfortable and stable.
Just as Gao Yuan was roasting sweet potatoes, his deputy, Chi Qingliu, slapped his door.
"Boss, Boss!" Chi Qingliu shouted while slapped.
Gao Yuan stood up, adjusted his posture, and asked majesticly:
"What's up?"
He is now less and less like a robber leader, but is closer to those city lords and governors.
The Wildfire Robbers only went out to rob the population a few times a year, mainly focusing on plundering people and enriching miners, with the focus completely on Tongshan.
There is a wealth of copper ore here!
If this place had not been remote to a certain extent, the environment was harsh to a certain extent, and it was sufficiently far from the major forces, Gao Yuan would not think that a band of robbers could occupy the mountain and become king, and would have developed into a small force.
Of course, he is an awakened person himself. The robbers later recruited several awakened people, which is one of the important reasons. Otherwise, even if they are not worried about the expansion of the major forces, they will encounter the fire of other robbers.
Every year when the "rootless people" drive over to transport copper mines, Gao Yuan is both happy and afraid.
He was happy that those copper mines had received a lot of resources. He was afraid that any strong man, which force of a large scale, suddenly became greedy, or knew about the situation in Tongshan and had an idea.
Chi Qingliu, who regarded himself as a military advisor, responded loudly to Gao Yuan’s question:
"The guys found a good thing!"
"Come in." Gao Yuan looked at Chi Qingliu who was opening the door and asked in a deep voice, "What's it?"
Chi Qingliu is a man in his early thirties. He is an awakened man recruited by the Wildfire Robbers Group after discovering the copper mine. He looks ordinary and deliberately has a clump of beards under his chin.
Hearing the boss’s question, Chi Qingliu waved to the outside of the door:
"Take it in."
Several robbers held the hunting net and brought in the item.
It was a small speaker with a blue background and black surface.
"That's it?" Gao Yuan raised his eyebrows.
Chi Qingliu hurriedly explained:
“This should be a prop involving the awakened person of the ‘corridor of mind’.
"After meeting them, they cried and laughed, sang and danced, just like crazy. Fortunately, they were woken up by the people next to them in time and did not freeze to death in the snow."
Props involving the awakened person of the "Spirit Corridor"... Gao Yuan suddenly became solemn.
This is a good thing!
If he hadn't been to a city with great power before and had come into contact with some nobles and merchants, he would not even know what the "spiritual corridor" and what props are.
"Where did you find it?" Gao Yuan asked.
One of the robbers smiled:
"Boss, this winter is nothing to do. Apart from eating, sleeping with women, gambling, and being idle, people are so idle.
"We left the mining area today and planned to go to the nearby river, dig up the ice surface, and fish. As a result, someone slid down the hillside on the way and found this thing in the ruins of a village.
"We were out of control when we touched it, and when we thought about what you said, we thought it should be a good thing."
Gao Yuan nodded:
"Put down the things, you guys go out first."
He thought about it and added:
"Don't worry, it's really useful, and your rewards will not be missing."
The robbers then happily left Gao Yuan's room, leaving behind the small speaker wrapped in the net.
When they left, Chi Qingliu looked at the prop on the ground and said curiously:
"What kind of ability does this thing have..."
"You have to try it before you know it." Gao Yuan recalled the knowledge he heard, "The price should be to let the person you meet go crazy. If I look at you, you won't have any problems."
What does it mean that I won’t have any problems? Chi Qingliu was stunned for a moment before she realized that the boss meant to let himself test the ability of the item. After all, ordinary people cannot use props.
He breathed secretly, cursed in his belly, and smiled:
"good."
Seeing him stepping towards the small speaker with a blue bottom and black surface, Gao Yuan said in his heart:
"Wait a moment."
"Hmm?" Chi Qingliu turned her eyes to the boss.
Gao Yuan walked towards him, passed him, and moved away from him.
Seeing that the boss left the room and had a distance of twenty or thirty meters from him, trembling in the cold wind, Chi Qingliu asked blankly:
"So far?"
"It's okay to be careful!" Gao Yuan replied loudly, "Don't worry, you won't die if you enter a state of madness. I have no time to wake you up!"
Chi Qingliu gritted her teeth, did a while of psychological construction, and slowly squatted down.
He reached his hand to the small speaker with a blue bottom and black surface, followed his understanding of old world electronic products and the boss told the way to use props, spread his breath and pressed the switch.
With a bang, the loudest sound burst out:
"Come on, happy, there's a lot of time anyway
"Come on, love, I have a lot of desires anyway..."
The song spread throughout the mining area, and every bandit who heard it unconsciously smiled, twisted his body, and became happy.
They turned their eyes to their women or companions, with their yearning for love and burning desire.
"Come on, wandering, there's a lot of direction anyway
"Come on, make a fool of yourself, there are a lot of scenery anyway..." (Note 1)
Gao Yuan suddenly had an impulse, turned around and ran out of the mining area.
He wants to wander.
He wants to make a move.
A large number of robbers followed their boss and left the mining area, preparing to wander around the distance.
The place suddenly became empty, leaving Chi Qingliu alone dancing to the music.
Bang!
With a gunshot, Chi Qingliu fell down.
Bai Chen, wearing a military exoskeleton device, put away his "orange" rifle and followed Jiang Baimian. Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong entered the Tongshan Mine Area.
All four of them wore earplugs and blocked their singing.
After turning off the small speaker and packing the scene, Jiang Baimian took off his earplugs and looked at Shang Jianyao and said:
"Why do you have to make things so troublesome and design so many links?
"With our strength, we can come to the door openly and 'visit'."
Shang Jianyao smiled and pointed at the speaker and said:
"As a member of our group, it's its turn to make contributions this time!"
After exploring the depths of the "spiritual corridor", he used his own breath to transform his beloved small speaker, making it a prop.
Jiang Baimian was speechless.
Long Yuehong looked around and asked the team leader:
"Why do we have to deal with this bandit?"
"To save the miners here!" Shang Jianyao answered first.
Jiang Baimian exhaled:
"Come and get some supplies."
"We have enough supplies to return to the company, so we have to calculate the usage of high-performance batteries." Bai Chen responded.
Jiang Baimian smiled:
"Not enough, we are not in a hurry to go back to the company next."
"Ah?" Long Yuehong's first reaction was that the team leader wanted to defect.
However, what Shang Jianyao said was nothing, and he believed that Jiang Baimian would not be so impulsive.
Jiang Baimian pointed to the south and said:
"I plan to go back to the company to go to the ruins of Swamp No. 1 to confirm whether it is Dajiang City and whether it is the last Buddhist holy place.
"The text information collected by Wang Beicheng and others did not clearly indicate the name of the ruins in the old world, so we can only find them ourselves."
Moreover, she suspected that the company might have concealed information about this, so after hearing Shang Jianyao say something, she made a quick decision and planned to take advantage of this training to explore the ruins of Swamp No. 1 again.
"But we didn't bring much equipment this time." Long Yuehong said hesitantly.
Because it was just training and the focus was on survival in the wild, the "old commissioning team" only applied for a military exoskeleton device and a set of black swamp iron snake bionic smart armor, and Long Yuehong had to admit that he had a phobia of insufficient equipment.
Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
"Enough, you each one, you guys, I won't need it for the time being."
"Yes." Bai Chen nodded.
At this time, Shang Jianyao Youran became fascinated:
"Maybe Xiao Chong hid back there again."
