I Plant A Field In The Last Days

Chapter 630: Discovery of Termite Nests

Seeing everyone in this state, Zhao Honghai didn't speak anymore.

So he turned to look at the people in each exploration team: "Since we are all here! Let's finish the work! Each team will now start to familiarize themselves with their own positions!"

After speaking, Zhao Honghai brought several experts from the expert group to the scene to check the situation.

Lu Yuan didn't know what to do next, so he could only look at Jock beside him.

"Why are we going?"

"What else can we do! Of course it is to explore geology! Now this is waiting! I will ask the leader!"

Lu Yuan stood still and looked at Luke immediately, then turned his gaze to the leaking place in the distance.

The water output of this place is even larger than that of the previous industrial zone. After all, the area of ​​the industrial zone is relatively small, and the steel frame layer above is also mainly supported by short steel columns.

But the urban area is different. The short steel frame here is tens of meters long, and the long one can even reach 100 meters. Each steel frame supports the top of the entire fortress to form a Similar to the shape of an egg shell,

However, now that the egg shell has cracks, the safety of the arched device is not as high as before, and even Lu Yuan can think that sooner or later this place will all collapse.

Looking down at the metropolitan area below the steel frame layer, there are waves of water from time to time among the tall buildings. Lu Yuan knows that this is the flood below. Seeing that the depth is still shining, Lu Yuan's heart is secretly secreted. It is estimated that there is at least half a meter of water below.

There is so much water accumulated in such a huge commercial area, Lu Yuan is a little unbelievable, but looking at dozens of places where water is constantly leaking in the distance, there are countless leaking points. Lu Yuan knows that there is accumulated water on it. Enough to fill the entire underground fortress.

After a while, Jock returned.

"Tian Zhiguang, let's go! Go to work!"

"Oh! Where are we going?"

Lu Yuan carried his own backpack on the mountain from the ground, then ran after him and asked, "Should I go to the top of the steel frame area?"

"Yeah! Yes! The upper part of the steel frame area is the rock layer. We are mainly responsible for geological research and reconnaissance, but it is very dangerous there, so we must be very vigorous, because there are no protective measures below. , Even if you have a steel cable tied to your body, you don’t know that the steel frame might break."

"Got it! I'll be careful!"

Lu Yuan nodded and followed behind him.

When we arrived at a gathering place in the distance, there were already dozens of people in the same clothes waiting there.

One of the men was making a roll call with a roster in his hand.

"Zhou Tong!"

"arrive!"

"Chen Meng!"

"arrive!"

"Joker!"

"arrive!"

"Tian Zhiguang!"

"Tian Zhiguang!""Oh! Here!"

Lu Yuan hasn't adapted to own's new name, so he didn't react when he heard the name. Jock on the side looked at Lu Yuan, "Don't hold me back when you come!"

"Oh, I see!"

Lu Yuan nodded obediently, but his eyes were watching back and forth nearby.

The place where they are now is in the center of a steel frame area. Above the steel frame area are the rock layers. The color of these rock layers is mainly gray and white, and the thick rock layers are like layers of books. It looks very heavy.

Then the director of the exploration team began to assign tasks, and Jock waved to Lu Yuan after receiving the own task.

"Where are we responsible?"

Joke took out a pack of cigarettes from the bag, opened it and handed it to Lu Yuan, saying, "The location in the middle!"

Hearing this news, Lu Yuan was a little depressed, because the central location was not far away from them, and this place couldn’t reach the high-rise area at all. The place Lu Yuan wanted to go was the upper location, that place. It is the most accessible location leading to the high-rise area.

But fortunately, it was not assigned to the lower position. If that were the case, Lu Yuan might have missed Own's expectations and could no longer find a place to enter the high-rise area.

Thus, Lu Yuan carried his bag and followed Jock towards the predetermined location.

There are a total of three teams traveling along the way, with two people in each team, one exploration expert and one deputy, a total of six people.

The other two experts are called Zhou Zhi and Meng Qiang, and they are also experts in geology.

Along the way, the three experts walked together to discuss prospecting matters, and the remaining three assistants walked together.

A young man named Chu Yinghao looked at Lu Yuan and asked, "Brother, you are so old! Why are you still following here?"

Another middle-aged young man named Chen Fan also looked at Lu Yuan: "Brother, I heard that you are in the office, why did you want to follow along? It's very dangerous here!"

Lu Yuan smiled: "I prefer adventure!"

Chu Yinghao shook his head and sighed: "Every day after the end of the world is an adventure. Haven't you had enough of this kind of life? You are really full and hungry! If I were you, I would stay in the office honestly. It is said that there are a lot of girls in the office!"

Chen Fan also cast an envious look: "Yeah! If I were you, I might go to the office to find those girls to flirt with, maybe I can still meet Bai Fumei!"

"What a joke! How could Bai Fumei come to such a place!"

Lu Yuan was a little bit ridiculous about what the two said. After all, the white and rich class in his eyes seemed to be of Long Yue's level! As for the other women, they really couldn't get into his eyes, but the woman Long Yue was too restless! My mind is just soaking up again, otherwise I wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

The three of them were walking while chatting.

After getting to the front, the oldest prospecting expert thoughtfully went to the designated place to look at the nearby rock formations and turned to Qiao Ke and Meng Qiang and said,

"We are responsible for a total area of ​​more than 5,000 square meters, and there are a lot of locations that need to be explored. Then, I will be responsible for the easternmost. How about you two responsible for the two corners of the west?"

Meng Qiang and Jock had no opinion, and nodded in agreement.

So the three groups of members parted ways in three places.

The place where Lu Yuan and Qiaoke are responsible is a corner in the southwest. There has been a small area of ​​water seepage in that place, but the area of ​​water seepage is not very large, about 30 square meters.

Jock put his backpack on the ground and said while unfastening the safety rope.

"You will be responsible for my safety in a while! Be sure to pull the rope, do what I ask you to do! Do you understand?"

Lu Yuan nodded: "No problem! I will protect your safety!"

Joke looked at Lu Yuan. There was a warning in his eyes: "It's not you who are responsible for protecting my safety. It's the lives of the two of us who are holding in your hands! Understand?"

Lu Yuan didn't take the other party's warning seriously, but after all, the other party was an exploration expert, so he could only follow the other party's orders.

So, the two began to reinforce the own rope. Lu Yuan fixed the safety rope around his waist to the steel frame, while Jock took out something similar to a nail gun from his backpack, and then nailed it. The end of a spear on the gun was secured with a rope.

Then the opponent aimed at a point above and pulled the trigger.

With a loud "bang", the spear dragged the long rope directly into the middle of the rock layer above. Jock reached out and pulled the rope. After confirming that it was very reliable, he took out another one. The rope bound the other spear.

Then it's the same operation again.

Two spears secured the ropes. After trying the ropes, Jock made sure that there was no problem, and then tied the other part of the rope around Lu Yuan's waist to Own.

"Be sure to pull in! Otherwise, both of us will die!"

"Oh, I see!"

Lu Yuan didn't talk nonsense, then grabbed the other part of the rope and watched Joke slowly climb up the rope.

Jock was very agile, and soon climbed to the middle of the rock layer. Then the opponent jammed the place where the rope was fixed, and then turned his head and shouted at Lu Yuan: "Now don't shake the rope casually! I'm about to start working. !"

Lu Yuan nodded, then grabbed the other part of the rope and stared at him.

Jock then took out a pickaxe hanging from his waist and gently carved a piece on the rock layer, and then put it into his own pocket.

Holding the flashlight in his hand to take photos of the rock formation above, Joke then said to Lu Yuan: "Pull the rope to the right!"

So Lu Yuan quickly adjusted the rope and began to move the opponent to the right.

After arriving at the designated place, Jock reached out and made a stop.

Then Jock took a flashlight and looked at a crack in the rock layer, and then the pickaxe in his hand gently dug a rock in the crack.

"Huh! What a dangerous thing!"

Joke was suddenly relieved holding the rock sample, but just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Lu Yuan suddenly saw the shadow of a white flower through the crack with the light of the opponent's flashlight.

"careful!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly to remind the other party.

Jock looked down at Lu Yuan and was a little unhappy: "I told you all! Don't yell! What are you going to do?"

"There are termites in the crack!"

Lu Yuan ignored the other party's displeasure and pointed in the direction of the crack. Joke was taken aback, then turned his own head over, and then took a flashlight to take a picture in the direction of the crack.

At this time, there was a noise inside, Jock only felt Own's scalp numb, and then he took out a wire from his waist and stabbed it into the crack.

"Puff puff puff" heard a few noises, and Jock realized that it was not good.

So he quickly pulled the wire out,

I saw that the iron wire that was just thrown in turned out to be pierced into the hydrochloric acid. The original white iron wire turned into gray-green, and it was stained with some unknown liquid, which made the whole iron wire look very strange.

The iron wire in my hand seemed to have melted in less than two seconds, and then the iron wire broke directly.

"Fuck! What's the situation?"Jock was shocked.

At this time, several white ants emerged from the cracks, each of which was ten centimeters long.

"Bring back a termite!"

Lu Yuan shouted while standing below.

After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Jock subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab it, but Lu Yuan quickly shouted, "Are you stupid? Reach out and grab it, you don't want it anymore!"

Although he was scolded by Lu Yuan, Jock had a hint of gratitude in his heart. If he really stretched out his hand to catch, these huge ants might actually be able to gnaw off his own arm.

So Jock reached out and took out a pair of anti-corrosion gloves from behind, and then reached out and grabbed the big ant that was crawling over.

At this time, a few ants came out again, and Jock also caught these ants one by one into his own plastic box.

The plastic box was not big, but now it can’t fit a few ants anymore.

"Okay! Come down! These termites seem to be going to corrode the spears on them!"

Jock glanced at it. Sure enough, these termites were about to corrode the spears that fixed their bodies.

"Damn! Want to get daddy?"

After speaking, Jock directly took out the mattock and smashed it at the big ant.

More than a dozen ants were killed, but the termites inside were still going out.

Lu Yuan took Joke down by pulling the rope.

Jok who came down was already sweating profusely at the moment.

Seeing that the box was full of fierce ants, Jock only felt a little chill in own's back.

"What the hell is this special?"

"Upgraded termites! This is what ruined the industrial area!"

Lu Yuan took the box over as he spoke.

These termites look much larger than the termites I have seen before.

Lu Yuan secretly guessed whether these termites were male ants? Or soldier ants, only these two types of ants are relatively large.

However, Lu Yuan was not sure whether these termites were male ants. If they were male ants, then there must be a large number of termites behind this crack, and there might even be queens.

When he thought of this, Lu Yuan's heart suddenly became hot.

"What's wrong? What doorway can you see?"

Lu Yuan shook his head: "Can you contact the biological experts here now?"

"Why? You want to study these termites? Don't forget, our job is to explore the terrain, not to study ants!"

Lu Yuan smiled, then shook the plastic jar in his hand.

"I suspect there may be termite nests above! If they can find termite nests and destroy their old nests, the cracks here may not collapse!"

"What? You mean... these termites can corrode even these rocks?"

"Yes! These rock layers are nothing. Even high-strength retarded soil is not a problem. You should have seen it just now. The iron wire was burned in less than two seconds after being put in!"
