Chapter 487 Guessing and Planning

"Several, this way please."

But before Chen Ziyan could express his doubts, Li Wu led them to the other side of the hall and opened a door again.

As soon as Chen Ziyan walked through the door, his attention was immediately attracted by the transparent glass wall on the side.

Outside the glass wall is an extremely wide space. With the help of those searchlight beams, it can be clearly seen that this space is full of strange black snakes.

Most of these snakes are as thick as a human arm, and the dense black mane extends from the top of the head to the tail. Some black snakes can still be seen when a person stands up. The necks of these snakes will stretch out, looking like It grows a pair of wings.

Black-haired snake.

Looking at the dense black snakes outside, Chen Ziyan immediately thought of this name.

No verification is required, and the iconic black mane alone is enough to prove identity.

After taking two steps forward, Chen Ziyan found that the space outside was not at the same level as where they were, and there was a pothole of unknown depth, but the black-haired snake inside had been entangled into a snake ball, so he didn't look at it at first glance. come out.

"Director Li, this is different from what you said." After seeing the snake ball with a diameter of at least ten meters, Chen Ziyan turned to look at Li Wu.

Seeing the scene in front of him, he still couldn't see that the underground black-haired snake had not started to wake up, but had already woken up a lot.

Not to mention anything else, just what you see in front of you, the number of black-haired snakes must be measured in 'ten thousand'.

To be honest, after seeing so many black-haired snakes all of a sudden, Chen Ziyan was already thinking of going back home.

If there are so many black-haired snakes rushing out, let alone the bulldogs and weasels he brought, even if they increase several times, it will not help.

The fighting power of this thing is not low. The weasel who is good at dealing with snakes may be able to fight one-on-one, but there is absolutely no way to deal with multiple black-haired snakes. The number of weasels he brought is less than a hundred. I am afraid that he will be overwhelmed by the snakes in an instant. .

Restraint also has to follow the basic rules, just like water and fire, water can extinguish the fire, and the fire can also evaporate the water, the key depends on the strength of both parties.

Not to mention that according to Chen Ziyan's knowledge, there is an exceptionally large individual in this black-haired snake. If there are many of them, it will be difficult for him to deal with them.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, these snakes look like a lot, but they are actually within the controllable range. We are absolutely safe here." Li Wu said confidently.

Obviously, he has strong confidence in this underground steel fortress.

Chen Ziyan believed his words. If it was not safe, the staff here would not stay here.

But the safety here has little to do with what they have to do. At most, it provides them with a safe base, but it cannot help them solve their problems.

If they wanted to find out why the black-haired snakes were waking up one after another, they had to get out of the fortress, and now there was no place to stay outside, so how could they investigate and solve the problem, just looking here would not solve the problem.

Wu Laogou also lost confidence, touched his chin and shook his head: "This matter is difficult. We are trapped here but we can't figure out the specific reason for it."

No matter what other people think, anyway, he will not go out easily, whoever wants to go to this kind of death.

Hearing Wu Laogou's words, the smile on Li Wu's face immediately froze, obviously thinking of this unsolvable joint.

He just remembered that the main reason why he called all kinds of strange people to come to help him was that the strange underground snake moved too fast, and when they discovered it, they couldn't go out to investigate.

"Director Li, do you have any specific information on this snake?" Chen Ziyan didn't dwell too much on this question and asked instead.

Regardless of whether you can go out and continue, it is always good to learn more about the black-haired snake. This trip must not be in vain.

"There is not much useful information about this kind of snake. So far we have not found relevant records, so we generally call it 'black-haired snake' according to its characteristics. What we know so far is that the black-haired snake has an extremely ferocious temperament and is highly poisonous. , and at the same time, the speed is very fast, but this kind of snake usually sleeps underground, and this is the first time that such a large-scale awakening has appeared."

After a short recollection, Li Wu briefly explained the information he knew.

Chen Ziyan was a little disappointed. These were similar to what he knew, and he didn't get anything new.

"Then do you have a way to restrain them?"

He thought about this again. Li Wu and the others were mining snake mines here, so it was inevitable that they would wake up during transportation before, so there must be a way to deal with it.

"There is no way of absolute restraint." Li Wu shook his head without hesitation.

They did have a unique arrangement when transporting, but that method was not applicable to the situation at hand, and it was top secret, so it was impossible for him to say it.

Chen Ziyan knew that he wasn't telling the truth, but he didn't ask any further. There are some things that just asking are useless.

But at this moment, Wu Laogou suddenly caught the loophole in Li Wu's words: "There is no absolute restraint? Does that mean there is an effective way?"

"Uh..." Li Wu was a little speechless.

But he still didn't say what the solution was.

Chen Ziyan turned his gaze to the outer space again, looking at the black-haired snakes that kept crawling, wanting to see if he could find usable clues.

From the beginning to the end, Chen Ziyan firmly believed in one thing, that is, the problem here can be solved, but the correct solution has not been found yet.

The reason is... Wu Laogou once did it in the original plot.

Chen Ziyan felt that he would not lose to the opponent, so he would be helpless for no reason.

In terms of force, he can definitely crush. In terms of intelligence, he may have a slight deficiency, but the memory of his previous life is enough to make up for it. As for helpers, the dogs and weasels that Chen Ziyan brought are not only sufficient in quantity, but also not weak in quality.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of a key point.

He remembered that when Wu Xie came here later, he learned that his grandfather had lost more than a dozen carefully domesticated bulldogs in order to solve the problem of his nephew.

Chen Ziyan didn't know whether the bulldogs lost in the story were the ones following Old Dog Wu at this moment, but this allowed him to capture a key message.

That is, Wu Laogou focused on solving the problem on his nephew!
Although I don't know why my nephew would affect the black-haired snake deep in the ground, but judging from the final result, Old Dog Wu's direction is correct.

"Let's go back first." Chen Ziyan thought of this, looked at the others and said, "We have seen the situation here, even if we want to go out now, we can't do it, so why not go back to the ground and think about it."

"Well, we have to think about it." Old Dog Wu was the first to agree.

He has no interest in this place now, and he has already made up his mind. After finishing brushing up the sense of presence, he will just leave. It is better to leave the problems here to the young people to deal with.

It may be the appearance of Chen Ziyan that made Wu Laogou make a decision that was completely opposite to the original plot.

However, this did not affect the overall situation. From the moment Chen Ziyan appeared here, the direction of this matter had deviated from the established route.

"Okay, let's go back first." Chen Ziyan and Wu Laogou both said so, what else could Li Wu say.

However, he wasn't too frustrated. After all, the main purpose of coming down this time was to let Chen Ziyan and the others understand more about the current situation, and he didn't expect to solve the problem.

When leaving, Chen Ziyan took a deep look at the space outside, and firmly engraved the scene there in his heart.

Although he didn't see anything, he always felt that something was neglected, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

The process of going back was very smooth, and there was not even a shadow of a snake along the way.

After returning to the surface, Chen Ziyan and the others did not disband, but began to discuss what to do next.

Although their respective purposes are different, they all need to solve the problems here first, so they have no differences at this time.

"The current situation is very clear. The problem we are facing now is to find a way to get into the snake group first, otherwise we can only guess randomly." Chen Ziyan tapped his finger on the table and said.

He pushes the issue out, he just doesn't want to be responsible for it.

It's not that Chen Ziyan is helpless. Even if his domain device can't completely suppress the black-haired snake, it should have some effect.

But the current situation is a bit complicated, he has to keep some cards for himself.

Wu Laogou followed closely behind: "If it's about dealing with wild beasts, I still have some ideas, but with snakes and insects, I can't do anything about it."

He is an old man with hollow eyelashes, so he can't make out the meaning of Chen Ziyan's words.

Li Wu felt very speechless, these two really pushed it cleanly, if he had a way to enter the snake group to check the situation, then what kind of foreign aid would he need?

On the other hand, Yingzi who was listening, after thinking for a while, suddenly said: "Brother Chen, you said that kind of strange snake underground is wrapped into a snake ball?"

Chen Ziyan didn't expect Yingzi to speak suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "That's right, and it seems that the scale of Snake Ball is still expanding."

Yingzi nodded, and then said: "This kind of snake is called snake group in the mountains, and it usually only appears in two situations. The first is hibernation, and the second is mating."

To say that other Yingzi may not know, but she is most familiar with the habits of beasts, so when she heard the word snake ball, she immediately thought of the ones she saw in the mountains before.

"Snake group? Hibernation or mating?" Chen Ziyan blinked.

Then he seemed to think of something, and looked at Old Dog Wu, who happened to be looking at him too. After their eyes collided in the air, they immediately understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

This is really a word that breaks the dream!

Chen Ziyan finally remembered what was wrong with him underground.

Snake Ball!
The snakes sleeping underground awakened on a large scale, and snake balls appeared. Hibernation is obviously impossible, but mating is very possible!
But before Chen Ziyan could be happy, Li Wu interrupted his conjecture, and only heard him say: "It's not mating, the distance there is no lower than 200 meters from the ground, plus the climate here, so the average temperature underground is generally At about twelve degrees, this is not a mating condition for snakes."

Why didn't they think of this possibility? You must know that they are not only mining here, but also have researchers stationed here all year round.

As soon as the snake ball appeared, the possibility of mating had already been verified.

Before the joy on Chen Ziyan's face fully appeared, Li Wu's words knocked him back, and he looked at the other party in astonishment: "You have already verified that it is not mating?"

Li Wu nodded seriously: "No, the researchers first proposed this conjecture, but after the research, they found that the conditions there were not satisfied. The reason why the underground strange snakes sleep all year round is that the temperature is One of the main reasons."

"I thought I had successfully found a way to solve the problem." Chen Ziyan sighed in disappointment.

On the other hand, Old Dog Wu fell into deep thought when he heard Li Wu's words, and guessed at this moment: "I have an idea, is the weird behavior of the strange snake down there affected by external forces?"

He was also a little frustrated at first, but he quickly thought of the condition of external factors. According to what Li Wu said, the situation here has been going on for an unknown number of years.

Therefore, the current situation is very likely to be caused by external forces.

"The influence of external force?" Chen Ziyan looked at Old Dog Wu.

Wu Laogou nodded slightly at him: "That's right, there are nothing more than two reasons for the changes in the underground. One is that there is a problem with the strange snake itself, and the other is the influence of the outside world on it."

Chen Ziyan began to think along the line of thought provided by Wu Laogou, and found that it was really what he said.

Facts have proved that sometimes to solve the problem, what is lacking is an idea.

"Nephew!" After thinking for a moment, Chen Ziyan slowly spit out two words.

If there is anything different here than before, it is only the nephew who attacked the camp.

From Li Wu's reaction, it was not difficult to see that they had never seen a strange beast like nephew here before, otherwise they would not have been caught off guard by it.

It can be seen from these that the nephew has obviously only recently appeared here.

"That's right." Li Wu also came to his senses and said excitedly.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized that it was right. Although he only saw nephew last night, it didn't mean that this thing came to this area last night.

"It seems that the next thing we have to do is to find a way to get rid of those nephews." Wu Laogou also nodded.

Although Nephew Gon is also very fierce, in his opinion, it is easier to deal with than the countless black-haired snakes underground.

Chen Ziyan saw Wu Laogou nodding, and the doubts in his mind were instantly resolved. He finally knew why Wu Laogou would deal with his nephew at any cost in the original plot.

Presumably in the original timeline, Wu Laogou also speculated that the underground accident was caused by the appearance of the nephew, so he spent a lot of money to solve the nephew who was wandering around.

wrong!

Chen Ziyan suddenly thought, when Wu Xie came here, there was still a nephew here?
