Chapter 927: Dr. Snow Raw Materials Crisis, Qi Yan Teahouse Tells Unofficial History
The method of hitting someone with a stick and then giving them a sweet date is very practical in many cases.
During the half day when the two sides exchanged information, Jijing had a deeper understanding of this sentence.
He witnessed with his own eyes how the doctor used PUA on this silly girl from the same tribe as him, Liberian.
Every time Magellan opened his mouth, the doctor would capture a lot of information, which would shock Magellan and make him exclaim "Ah". But every time Magellan began to speak less cautiously, the doctor would calmly praise him.
Magellan's weakness was immediately discovered by the doctor, and he was so happy that he couldn't help but smile, and continued to chatter away more information.
By the time the three of them were ready to go, Jijing was just eavesdropping and had almost grasped most of the information about this silly girl.
If the doctor had not had that thought, Jijing had no doubt that the doctor would be able to find out how many sets of clothes Magellan had prepared in his luggage.
"The messenger from Ursus is nearby. Let's set off."
Magellan put away the communicator. In just half a day, without him even noticing, the doctor had developed a considerable trust in him.
She revealed all her preparations without any defense: "After the messenger takes us into the snowfield, it will be the area where the Sami people are active. I also have friends in Sami.
But Sister Simone's whereabouts are usually very mysterious, and whether we can meet her depends on luck, but once we meet her, our journey will be much easier."
"It seems that we are lucky to meet you."
As usual, the doctor gave Magellan a compliment, which once again made Magellan very happy.
Even Magellan didn't know why, but she felt embarrassed when she heard compliments from others, but she always felt very happy when she heard the doctor's compliments.
Without any urging, Magellan had already opened the protective door of the research station with light steps and led the way outside.
An Ursus wrapped himself in thick cold-proof clothing and waited silently not far from the scientific research station.
The doctor really followed the agreement and watched Magellan negotiate with the other party without saying a word.
Everything seemed to be going well in the conversation. The Ursus messenger simply inquired about Magellan's purpose of coming. After learning that she came to the snowfield to look for a Rhine Life Science expedition team that had lost contact, he simply took the coordinates of the expedition team before they lost contact and did not ask any further questions.
"Follow my pace closely, and don't make any messy little movements."
The Ursus messenger waved and said, "The snowfield has been unstable recently. It's best not to do anything that could easily cause misunderstanding."
Magellan nodded repeatedly and followed the Ursus messenger obediently.
The Doctor and Jijing hung at the back of the team in silence, secretly communicating with their eye contact.
The Ursus messenger behaved normally, but the two men sensed something was wrong.
Even though the two of them were like Magellan's followers at that station, the Ursus messenger simply ignored them, showing a bit too much trust.
After all, this route into the snowfield requires the use of territory within Ursus, so the review should not be so lax.
The more important point is that the Ursus messenger ignored the identities of the two people and instead specifically asked about the coordinates of the scientific expedition team before they lost contact. This does not seem to be the job of a messenger.
The two of them gave each other a vigilant look and began to walk on their way in silence.
Although Magellan was a little dull, that was in contrast to the two smart people, the Doctor and Jijing. In fact, she was not stupid.
After noticing that the atmosphere seemed a little off, she immediately resisted the urge to chat.
The group had not walked far when the Ursus messenger suddenly received a communication. He quickened his pace, left the three behind, and hid aside to answer the call alone.
The three of them stopped, Magellan looked at the two doctors, lowered his voice and asked:
"Is there something wrong?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, if something unexpected happens, he will tell us that the situation has changed when he comes back and then take us to another route." The doctor's tone was calm but full of confidence.
Jijing added: "I suspect that Ursus has already noticed the changes in the snowfield. Given Ursus's style, they will most likely resort to force to suppress it."
Magellan was shocked: "Is he going to attack us?"
"Not really." The doctor shook his head, "But judging from his performance, he seems to have no confidence that we can get out of the snowfield alive.
But this alone cannot reveal more information, we still need to continue observing for a while, please be careful not to expose us."
Magellan's expression changed.
It's not that he was worried about his own safety. With these two people from Rhodes Island around, Magellan knew that as long as he held on to their strong legs, his life would be safe.
But if the changes in the snowfield are really so serious, then Rhine Life's scientific expedition team might be in big trouble.
The leader of that scientific expedition team was her teacher...
"Magellan, something unexpected happened."
The Ursus messenger suddenly turned back and interrupted Magellan's thoughts, saying in a difficult tone: "My companion just informed me that the road ahead is under military control, and even I can't pass.
But don't worry, as compensation, I can take you on another route as an official of Ursus, detouring through the outskirts of the Sami tribes and into the snowfield."
"Um...thank you."
At this moment, Magellan had completely believed in the doctor's judgment.
Everyone in this land knew about the conflict between Ursus and Sami. How could an Ursus messenger dare to run to Sami at will?
But Magellan did not show it directly and continued to follow the Ursus messenger obediently.
The doctor took the initiative to approach and said, "Friend the messenger, how long will it take if we take a detour?"
"It will take about a week. What's the matter?" the Ursus messenger said casually.
"Nothing, just calculating whether we have enough supplies." The doctor pointed to the small packages the three of them carried with them, "You can see that we didn't bring too much."
"…It's not a big deal. I'll speed you up and try to get you out within three days."
"Haha, thank you very much."
……
……
These three days were a bit too busy for the people of Yumen and Longmen.
It does not mean that there was universal celebration after the two cities survived the behemoth crisis, but that after the behemoth crisis ended, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the deep desert outside the city. From a distance, you could see blazing flames rising into the sky, burning day and night.
At the same time, there are also various strange phenomena such as the sound of weapons, black and white chess pieces, landscape paintings, and even a woman's strange laughter.
There were also some curious people who wanted to go over to investigate, but they found that the place where the strange phenomenon occurred was actually guarded by the Great Yan Imperial Guards, which scared all the curious people and made them turn around and run away.
But the rumors still spread uncontrollably.
"Have you heard? The strange phenomenon outside the city is actually the remnant spirit of the giant beast. It is a ghost caused by its resentment. Some people have heard a woman's crazy laughter coming from there from time to time!"
"You are lying. I have read the unofficial history and know the truth. In fact, the giant beast is called Mirror. It is extremely magical and can transform into any person or object on this earth. It is so lifelike that it is difficult to tell the real thing from the fake!"
"And then?"
"Then, after the Grand Master subdued the Mirror Beast, he ordered his men to control it with raging fire, forcing it to transform into the most beautiful woman in the world every day for the Grand Master's enjoyment!"
In the teahouse, a white-haired Rupert told the tea drinkers around him in a vivid way: "Think about it, in these two cities, who else can command the imperial guards besides the Grand Tutor? Think about it again, the Grand Tutor traveled thousands of miles to this frontier, and then disappeared without doing anything. Where could he go? Keep thinking..."
As white-haired Rupert told the story, the group of tea drinkers listened with wide eyes, and the more they listened, the more they felt that it made sense.
Just as Qi Yan was getting excited and was about to describe the details of Taifu's enjoyment to everyone by stepping on the table, a light cough came from behind him, interrupting his words.
Qi Yan turned around and saw the Grand Tutor himself standing behind him with a dark face, staring at him.
Qi Yan was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the empty seat next to him without changing his expression:
"You are a guest, please sit aside and listen quietly. Next, I will tell you that Taifu's sword is still the best among the old men, and why the mirror beast screams every night!"
"Qi Yan!" The Taifu's face was so dark that water seemed to drip out.
Qi Yan leaned close to the Master's ear and whispered:
"After you refine the mirror into a divine weapon, I will lend it to you for a few days."
The Grand Tutor sat down on the chair with smooth and silky movements, called the waiter to serve Qi Yan a pot of the best tea to moisten his throat, and then urged:
"Hurry up and tell me. Don't hesitate. Tell me boldly. I love to hear unofficial stories. The more unofficial, the better!"
(Heimalo is so fun, I really want to take a day off to play games)
