Mystery Leaks

Chapter 329 Savage and Rough
"Does this Lei Xiaotian know you?" Back in the living room, I asked Hu Lai with some doubts.

Lei Xiaotian met us on the plane, and the second time he met us at a roadside hotel, he kidnapped us, he must know that Hu Lai is an insect repellent, otherwise, the kidnapping would not make sense.

After all, the only one who can help them is the exorcist.

Hu Lai nodded, and said: "Before, I just thought he looked familiar, but I remembered it in the past two days. I did meet him once a few years ago. At that time, he led people to buy the armor pieces of the tiger, and I sold them. Give him some."

I get it, no wonder.

But after Hu finished talking, his brows were still slightly frowned, as if he was a little uncertain, very tangled.

"What's wrong?" I was puzzled.

"Tsk." Hu Lai stroked his temple and said, "When I was young, I met a person who was somewhat similar to Lei Xiaotian, but I'm not sure if it was him."

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said with a smile: "Forget it, even if it was him, he would not admit it."

"Who?" My heart moved slightly, and I immediately asked.

After such a long time of contact, I have become very familiar with Hu Lai, but Hu Lai never mentioned his family, only knowing that he has a cousin who brought him into the industry.I once asked, but I always talked about it, and never revealed a word.

He even spent the Chinese New Year in Jinpen Township, and he didn't have the slightest intention of going home or missing home.

This is different from Huang Mao, Huang Mao was expelled from the family, although it was mentioned in a sentence or two, and he didn't want to mention more, but occasionally he would reveal a sentence or a half.

Hu Lai was completely silent.

My intuition told me that there was something behind Hu Lai, and that it was not a coincidence that he and Huang Mao came to Jinpen Township, but a force pushed them to my side.

It's just that they already had a fatal friendship with me. I didn't explore the inside story behind it, because I believe that when the time is right, they will tell it by themselves.

Sure enough, Hu Lai shook his head, sat on the bed and leaned against the quilt, staring at the front with wandering eyes, and kept frowning.

I wanted to ask, but seeing Hu Lai's appearance, I didn't ask.

……

The time passed to the next day, just as Lei Xiaotian said, they reinforced the formation very quickly, and when it was getting dark, the reinforcement of the formation was completed.

Of course, Zhan Chong would not wait until the big worm had left to do it. As soon as the "cage" was reinforced, he immediately started to do it, because the big worm could only locate it when it was quiet.

"Excuse me, both of you." Lei Xiaotian said to us, at this moment all the bug hunters are ready, and the magic circle has also been activated.

Hu Lai and I nodded and walked into the valley step by step.

The surrounding area has been surrounded by thick and thick piles, and the thin barrier is like soap bubbles, thin, but exuding a palpitating aura, not a little bit stronger than the day before yesterday.

Hu Lai was barefoot, sensing the subtle fluctuations in the ground, and moved forward as gently as possible.

Soon he noticed something, turned a corner, stopped on a small mound, and said to me: "100 meters deep!"

I nodded, took out a small flag, wrote 100 on it, and stuck it on the small mound.

On the hill in the distance, Lei Xiaotian and others saw the numbers on the small flag with binoculars, and immediately cheered. The reason is very simple, 100 meters can be said to be a short distance for something like a big bug that often lurks underground for several kilometers. floating on the surface.

The shallower the worm lurks, the easier it is to bombard and kill, and it can even be killed with one blow.

After that, Hu Lai sensed it, walked in another direction, and located another one. This one was also lurking in the shallow surface layer, more than 150 meters deep.

Then there is the third one, more than 200 meters.

The fourth, more than 170 meters.

The fifth, more than 370 meters.

Except for the last one, it is basically the superficial layer, and the third one is slightly closer to the deep layer.

After positioning, the rest of the work was handed over to the short engineer. The method was very simple. Use a vehicle-mounted hammer to press down sections of steel pipes as thick as arms.

The steel pipe is three meters long, and there is a threaded screw inside to screw it in. Press down a section and twist a section, and go back and forth until it reaches a position about ten meters away from the big worm.

Then put a cable inside the steel pipe to ensure that when the high-voltage electricity hits, it can directly hit the tiger, exerting the greatest power and trying to kill it with one blow.

The key to combat effectiveness is positioning.

If the positioning is inaccurate, with the physique of a big bug, it will be extremely difficult to kill it.

Although the insect hunters are brutal, they also need to pay attention to technology. Most of the time, insect exorcists will participate, either voluntarily or under coercion.

Hu Lai told me before that although the probability of insect hunters obtaining insect treasures is relatively high, if they are evenly distributed to dozens or hundreds of people, the income is actually not very good.

It means that this profession can survive in the place where the big worms gather under Kunlun Shenshan. If the big worms run away from here, they have to rely on the insect drivers.

The insect hunter's method is too rough, and a large number of personnel, equipment and materials chase the big insect across the mountains, it's a joke.

In addition, there is another reason, that is, the value of insect treasures has skyrocketed now, and there is no market for them. It has been multiplied many times, and insect hunters have become active, which was rare in the past.

Usually, when a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, and at a very suitable time, some desperadoes will appear as bug hunters to make a profit.Usually they are all busy with their own work, doing other livelihoods.Except for leaders like Lei Xiaotian, there are basically no professional bug hunters.

Just like this time, most of the people gathered by Lei Xiaotian were recruited temporarily, and the core personnel did not exceed ten fingers.

The characteristics of this line of work are very similar to those of insect repellents. They are stuffed to death when they eat, and starve to death every time they eat. It is impossible for a large-scale professional team to exist.

……

Although these people were recruited on a temporary basis, they were all quite professional, and their movements became gentler as they went deeper, for fear of disturbing the big bug and causing danger.

Soon, the shallowest end of the steel pipe was finished, and after the thick one was connected to the ignition, the personnel and equipment were evacuated immediately, and then the second end, the third end, and the fourth end.

But there was trouble at the fifth head, and the steel pipe couldn't go on hitting; at this time, an hour and a half had passed.

The short foreman ran over to check it out and then reported to Lei Xiaotian: "Brother Lei, the last pile is still more than 70 meters away. The soil layer is a bit deeper, and it hit the rock layer, so it cannot be drilled."

"Why don't you give up first, the dragon's energy will be exhausted soon, if the tiger moves, all the previous arrangements will have to be repeated." Hu Lai pondered for a moment, then said immediately.

Lei Xiaotian made a decisive decision: "Withdraw, don't expect to be able to kill five heads at once, wait for it to adjust its position and come again; as long as it can kill two or three of them, the formation will be as stable as Mount Tai, and it will not be too late to clean up the rest."

"Got it!"

The short foreman immediately responded and gestured to retreat over there.

After all the personnel and equipment were evacuated, the short foreman immediately ordered to store electricity, and a power storage station not far from the construction site immediately made the sound of current roaring, which made the scalp tingle, and even the static "crackling" lightning flashes could be seen.

Even the electric wires in the distance made a terrifying electrical noise.

The short foreman's eyes sparkled, and he said with a smile: "Hey, this time we are preparing an ultra-high voltage storage capacitor. The high-voltage electricity coming in from [-] volts is boosted to [-] volts. As long as there are no mistakes, it will definitely kill you in one blow." .”

"How long does it take to store the battery?" I asked hastily, the figure of [-] volts made me shudder. The insect hunter's methods are brutal, but they are very powerful.

"Three to five minutes." The short foreman said.

I nodded, remembering that I read in an environmental protection magazine that the high-voltage electricity used to hunt whales on a whaling ship at sea was only boosted to [-] volts.

This is a full sixteen times!
Comparing in terms of body size, it is even worse.

About 4 minutes later, the sound of the storage power station gradually weakened, and a report of the completion of energy storage came from the intercom.

"beat!"

Lei Xiaotian gave an order.

After a pause, boom!
There was a sudden burst of lightning across the valley, and there was a slight shock, and flames burst out of the steel pipe. This was the moment the power was released, and the cable was ignited.

"Ow!"

Immediately afterwards, under the fifth mark, the tiger roared in pain, and ran wildly in the formation in fright, immediately turning the valley upside down again, with earth and rocks flying around.

But... only it was moving, everything else was silent.Obviously, the four heads in front were all killed by one blow.
