Modern Onmyoji

Chapter 249 Consultants
"What? Asking for rain?" Li Da was surprised when he heard my words, and he stammered, "Did I hear wrong or you said wrongly. You mean asking for rain, right? I was born in the United States, and some Chinese I can’t understand your dialect. Speak well, what you want to express is not to make it rain, right? Right!”

"Li Da, believe in your own Chinese level. What you heard is indeed the word for rain, and the meaning seems to be literally the same." I patted Li Da on the shoulder and said with an expression that you understand.Seeing that Li Da still had an unbelievable expression, with his mouth open, I couldn't help it.I had to say, "You can just say that directly when the time comes."

"Cough cough." Charles coughed lightly for the last time, and the whole conference room fell silent again.Li Da's expression also returned to normal, and he looked at me a little bewildered.Subconsciously choked up a bit, but still nodded firmly to me.

"Okay, I think you all have a general understanding of this operation. So who is willing to serve as a consultant for this time, please tell me." Charles had just finished speaking when he saw a black man standing Woke up and chattered a lot.I don't know if it's a racial talent or something, although I can't understand what he is saying, but it always feels like rap.Under Li Da's translation, I also know that this guy is called Bruce. He is an expert in the desert. He has led teams into the desert nine times and has in-depth research on the desert's changeable weather.

As if against Bruce, another white man stood up immediately.His name is Cadis, and he has a lot of research on the desert.I have the experience of crossing the Sahara desert alone.He is also an expert in geology.Soon, this place became the home field for the two of them to compete.Although other people also want to intervene, it is obvious that these two are experts in the desert.

Until the two of them had almost quarreled, Li Da hesitated and stood up and said, "Chen Nian is also an expert in this field. He is very good at it—good at begging for rain."

After a brief silence, the first two Chinese people laughed.The other foreigners were surprised for a while, but also laughed out loud.I guess Li Da didn't translate the word "begging for rain" very well. Foreigners may think I'm good at artificial rainfall, but only the two Chinese understand it.

For a moment, I felt several pairs of eyes staring at me.I'm used to this look.From their eyes, what I saw was disdain.My age seems too young here.

"Where did you come from, the brat, you really can't control yourself."

"You've read too much Journey to the West, and you're asking for rain."

"Hey, hey, who let such a kid in! Is this a place where laymen can come in casually?"

"Don't be funny! This is not a place for you to talk nonsense."

Sitting down there was a burst of laughter, but it was obvious that several people were not laughing.Among them is the first Charles.

"Well, I know you don't believe me." I shrugged and said, "In this case, please let me show it. The weather forecast in the United States should be more accurate. Is it sunny or rainy today?"

Charles immediately looked at the secretary behind him. The secretary took out the tablet and tapped it twice, and then said, "This is a message from the US Weather Bureau. It will be sunny in New York for the next three days."

"Okay, please take a look outside." As I spoke, I realized that this is a completely enclosed room, but Charles tapped the computer in front of him a few times, and the projector immediately displayed the an image.I am using hand pinch formulas to mobilize the power of the stars and modify the great feng shui, which has reached the point of modifying the weather. This is not a problem for the real dragon fishing officials.With the help of the yin and yang in the space, creating rain clouds is just like the principle of artificial rainfall.Soon, I saw that the sky in New York on the screen was still clear at the beginning, but it became cloudy in the blink of an eye.Within a minute, it was as dark as night, and then the wind blew up and the rain poured down.For a moment, the whole room was as quiet as death.Especially those who laughed the most before, their mouths were wide enough to eat their own fists.

I didn't care about them coming back to their senses, and stood up directly. First, I glanced at everyone contemptuously, and then said, "Well, since you all claim to be experts, let me ask you a question. What do you think? That's the east side now."

Once the question came up, there was another silence.Everyone looked at each other, and no one could answer for a while.I was looking at Charles and saw admiration on his face.I smiled subconsciously and said, "Let me tell you, this is the east side." Then, I pointed in a direction, "This is a fully enclosed space, and the elevator to get here is directly from the ground floor." Here, the elevator rotated 180 degrees during the period, didn’t you realize this? As a night survival ability, you don’t even have the most basic sense of direction.”

My contemptuous voice slapped them in the face like a mouthful. It can be seen that these people are full of resentment, but they can't say anything.I glanced at them again, and then said, "There are too many desert experts in this world. It is worthless to catch a lot of them. The difficulty of this operation is not only due to the desert environment, but also some kind of mysterious power." .As I said before, the mysterious corpse was found in the local area. Can you experts deal with these things? I am a fisherman from China—Xunlong Tianguan. I have more experience with this kind of corpse than any of you. .”

The last sentence left everyone speechless.Finally Charles' applause broke the silence present.The others also applauded.

"Very well, since this is the case, is there anyone who is not convinced?" I said arrogantly to everyone.

"Since that's the case, it's settled. Chen Nian will be the top advisor for this operation, and Bruce and Caddis will be the deputy. The detailed information of the mission will be sent to you. Let's arrive today or something." With that said, the meeting is the first it's over.

When I returned to my room, I had already received the materials.I have to say that foreign expedition teams are also very professional.They will put intelligence first, and must collect a lot of intelligence before acting.This is also the habit of the Tomb Robbers Union.This kind of work also makes me feel very familiar.However, when I actually saw these materials, I also frowned.The gold was hidden before World War II, and the map is long gone.I only know a general location and some landmarks.The specific location needs to be found.

It's just hiding treasures instead of burying people, and I can't tell anything from Feng Shui.It's okay to use Tianxing Fengshui to deduce, but I can't rely on Tianxing Fengshui for everything. Master Jianzhen's words are still echoing in my ears.Always spying on the sky like this will be punished.I don't know if my current situation is retribution, but I know that this curse-like thing exists.

Continuing to read the information, another point caught my attention.The German army not only hid a large amount of gold here, but also a large number of Chinese national treasures.When the Eight-Power Allied Forces plundered China, many Chinese national treasures were snatched by Germany, and some of them were hidden here.For a moment, I seemed to understand the meaning of the exorcist faction's intervention.Gold and the like, I don't believe that the exorcists are so superficial. It must be one of the Chinese national treasures that caught their attention.

Later, I made a few more phone calls to the country, and Luo Huo was still the same. At the same time, there were more unexplainable supernatural and natural events in the country.For a while, I also had the feeling that dark clouds were overwhelming the city.Then I called Huang Lei, but no one answered.Maybe it's because I'm upset after being suspended, so let's go on a trip to relax.If I think about it, I don't care about these things anymore.

The mission started three days later, and all kinds of equipment in large and small bags were directly transported to the plane. I looked at the equipment, and all kinds of heavy weapons were transported onto the plane without any hesitation. The United States is good. There is no need to hide and hide while wearing a weapon.A large airliner was on standby directly at the airport, and I was also arranged to meet with the operatives.There are about 30 people in the whole team, and the team leader is a strong man in his 30s, with a figure of more than two meters, and a suit of orthodox military equipment looks extremely heroic.With sharp eyes and capable actions, you can tell that he is a soldier at the first sight.In fact, this is true. William Hanks, a former member of the US Navy SEAL, once participated in special operations in the Iraqi desert.He was directly recruited into the company after retiring.I have already had the experience of leading a team into the desert twice.

Li Da didn't come with me, and the interpreter was Bruce. I couldn't imagine that this black man who looked like a rapper could speak an authentic Beijing accent.After a brief chat, I realized that he is not purely African, and he studied in China in his early years.I have lived in Beijing for more than ten years.He even knows more about Chinese culture than Li Da does.When he saw that I was able to pray for rain that day, he was frightened.This time when they met, they knelt down and wanted to apprentice.

I'm really at a loss for this black man who speaks a Beijing accent.It is worth saying that an outdoor expert like me will not accept apprentices casually.The excited Bruce said that if I don't accept him as an apprentice, I won't be able to kneel for a long time.What the fuck did this nigger learn in China!Is there anything serious about it?I have no choice but to tell him first that this action is my test for him, and I will consider whether to accept him or not based on his performance this time.

It was Caddis, the white man, who looked unhappy at me.However, it may be due to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, and it is not clearly stated.

"Hi, Boy Chen." At this time, the team leader William greeted me and walked towards me, although he looked very enthusiastic.But I can tell from his micro-expression that he has a special sense of contempt for me.This should not be aimed at me, but his superiority over all civil servants as a military officer.I immediately realized that this might be a warning to me to warn me not to be offside during the action.
