Chapter 103
ime always seemed to drag on. Everything the researcher said was what I had specifically instructed her to say. I was taking a gamble, betting that only Hong Jie fit the criteria, betting that those p...Our yurt has a back door, and outside that is where those few people usually go to the bathroom. There's no toilet downstairs, so it can't just be done willy-nilly, right
Having prepared the plan, the researcher deliberately set the diesel generator's power output to its maximum in order to mask the noise we were making moving the cylinder block.
"So loud Are you done yet Can I come in" Chen Jian-sheng shouted outside, hearing the roar of the generator.
"Wait! Not yet!" Dr. An shouted, "It's halfway through, the instruments need to be running at full power, we'll call you when we're done."
"
" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then Chen Jian-sheng mumbled something outside, but I couldn't hear clearly.
At that moment, two strange cries came from somewhere, "Goo...goo...". The sounds seemed like those of some kind of bird, but also a bit like a chicken's call.
"How are you still keeping chickens down there"
"Hong Jie Hong Jie" Seeing her lost in thought, I called out to her twice.
"Probably just a chicken or something, nothing to it," Hong Jie changed the subject, pointing at the fish tank. "Don't worry about that useless stuff, let's get started."
">
Let's get started.
Empty the water from the basin, pull open the back door's canvas curtain, and place a shovel in the basin.
Then several of us started to turn the large water tank outward. Because the tank was very heavy, it was difficult to lift up, so we could only turn and roll it out little by little.
There's a smell back there. Li Zheng said you guys watch your step, if you see any toilet paper balls, walk around them, don't accidentally step in poop.
The researcher felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, and she gave a sheepish smile.
The thunder is still going on, but I don't know if it's raining outside. I hope the thunder doesn't stop, because if it does, my plan won't work.
The big water tank was very heavy, and after walking for a while, Li Zheng couldn't take it anymore. He panted and complained: "Carrying such a big thing around, where are we going to go! If we have to walk for another hour or two, not only will we be caught by those people, but all of us will be exhausted to death!"
I took a look around and thought the conditions were decent, so I told them there was no need to leave. We could just stay here. I pointed to an open patch of land in the middle.
I cleared away the rubble, aimed my shovel, and started digging.
We were lucky; the soil was loose and didn't have many large rocks, and it wasn't hard either. Digging the hole was a job that required strength, naturally done by men. Bai Daguai and I, Li, took turns working, and after over an hour we finished digging the pit.
This pit wasn't too big or too small, just big enough to fit the water tank we had rolled all the way here.
Several people worked together to push the water tank into the dug pit. The researcher wiped his sweat and whispered, "Will this really work What if in the end we wasted all our effort and got caught anyway"
Red Sister wasn't pleased to hear this. She frowned and said, "People from different professions are like people from different worlds; they don't understand each other. If you don't know what to say, just keep it positive."
"
Hong Jie has an open and spicy personality, while An the researcher is timid. He just wants to save his own life. Even when Hong Jie scolded him a couple of times, he didn't fight back, his pretty face flushed red with embarrassment, too scared to retort.
"Come on, Yunfeng, since I've passed on the head to you, I trust you."
"Hongjie looked at me with an encouraging gaze."
I nodded, took a deep breath, and told them to absolutely not talk and distract me. Then I jumped straight into the fish tank.
Dig a hole in the ground, and bury the water tank underground.
This basin can be understood as an echo collector. Its principle is somewhat similar to a simple bamboo tube sound transmission device. The difference is that the medium for bamboo tube sound transmission is a wire, while the medium for water basin collecting echoes is the ground.
The louder the thunder, the clearer the echoes coming from the ground. It's like someone setting off firecrackers in a cave; the sound spreads through both dead ends and open paths before echoing back. Those echoes are definitely different.
In the world of tomb raiding, this method is called, "Listening to Thunder."
">, but when I opened my eyes, it was still night. It was probably late at night.Zhao Xuanyan beside me lay still.I gently nudged her, but she didn't react."What's that" I suddenly saw something out of...
