In the dead of night, even the engine sound of the red and silver chariot seemed very soft. Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the cab. Wu Qi said "come in", the door opened and closed, and Chris walked to the passenger seat next to Wu Qi.
"Master, let him go and take a rest."
"I also want to rest, especially to have enough energy to allow my body to digest the newly absorbed isovirus," Wu Qi said.
Chris shook his head: "If the king of Qi goes to great lengths to support the general's growth, wouldn't it be putting the cart before the horse?"
Kris asked Wu Qi to stay there, but Wu Qi would not leave.
The two walked in the quiet cab for a while. Chris thought about it for a while and said, "Master, actually, he has something strange that he wants to report to you."
"explain."
Chris took out a small black mechanical device from his back. It was about the size of a knuckle, with tiny latches on the edges, but nothing else visible.
"Where did you get it?" Wu Qi was surprised. The thing didn't belong to the red and silver chariot, and where did Chris get it from.
"Could it be that the body of a saber-toothed lion came from a long time ago, and it seems to be buckled on the back of the neck? Could it be a machine installed by humans on the body of a saber-toothed lion?"
Wu Qi looked at the small mechanical device on the leg and thought: "The things that humans can install on other creatures are nothing more than tools like trackers and bombs."
He didn't understand complicated mechanical devices, so he would let Gu Changzai see what happened tomorrow.
The following month is at noon. After a simple breakfast, Wu Qi called Gu Changzai and handed him the small black mechanical device.
"Is that so?" Gu Chang asked in surprise after taking it.
"I picked it up from the body of a saber-toothed lion last night."
Gu Changzai took out a set of tools from the storage cabinet and said, "Wait for him."
Gu Changzai took a tool to pry open the machine's casing and worked on it for a long time. Wu Qi was standing next to him waiting.
After a long while, Gu Changzai said: "Boss, is that tracker in good condition? It's 70% new."
"Tracer?" Is there any other information? "
"Go to the east and ask him to use that instrument to capture the signal sent by the tracker, and then follow the clues to find the location of the terminal that receives the signal. Then there will be information." Gu Changzai Rufu said, with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.
In an uninhabited place like an occupied area, someone placed a tracker on a certain plague species. That in itself was a strange thing.
Gu Changzai turned on his signal locator. Is that the special equipment he put in when he built the red and silver chariot? At the beginning, he expected that if one day he used the Red Silver Chariot and happened to be lost in the wilderness, he could use the signal locator to find the location of the nearest base in the wilderness.
I didn't expect that when I turned on the locator, I would be in the same situation.
Gu Chang is debugging the signal locator while testing whether the instrument can capture the signal of the working tracker. The instrument responded quickly, and it turned out that the terminal receiving the tracker signal was in the northwest.
"Northwest!" Gu Changzai's tone suddenly became excited. The reason why he had been relatively calm before was that he felt that the tracker was most likely placed by the high-walled army, because there were almost no living people in the depths of the occupied area.
But now the signal of the tracker is sent to the northwest, which is completely different from the high wall, indicating that the owner of the tracker is deep in the occupied area!
"To the northwest, is the person who placed the tracker actually deep in the occupied area? Is it the military's reconnaissance team that went deep into the occupied area?" Wu Qi asked doubtfully.
"He doesn't know the identity of the installer, but he thinks the person who placed the tracker should be trapped in a corner of the occupied area. That place has protection and supplies, so he can survive for a period of time, but his purpose is not Talk to the person who got the tracker; because the tracker doesn’t have a camera and can’t capture images, but it can connect to channels; is that kind of communication a bit old? Let’s try to see if he can talk to the person on the other end of the tracker.”
As Gu Changzai spoke, he adjusted the tracker to each channel, trying to hear if there was any sound of someone shutting up. No wonder, 15 minutes have passed, and the tracker has not connected to any useful channel, and the other end has not even made any noise.
Gu Changzai gave up on that direction and turned to Wu Qi: "Boss, I have decided whether they want to follow the direction of the signal."
Wu Qi thought for a moment and then said: "Let everyone vote to decide."
Wu Qi and Gu Chang went to the living area to find other people and explained what they had discovered and discussed. The results of the vote were slightly beyond their expectations.
Go in the direction of the signal, unanimous vote.
The red and silver chariot turned around and diverted to the northwest. That line of swimming took several days and nights. Gu often checked the signal locator on a moonlit night, and the positioning direction was always northwest.
The Red Silver Chariot's gasoline reserve is only two-fifths left, and its food supply is only five days' worth. This is a very serious problem for the team. Wu Qi secretly checked the driving data recorded by the driving recorder and found that that time point denied the team's initial opportunity to return to the high wall.
Even though part of the red and silver chariot was damaged, it still played a very important role in helping Wu Qi and others make the long journey. If it were not for the red and silver chariot, then Wu Qi and others would really be in trouble in the wasteland of the occupied area. It's hard to move forward.
The atmosphere in the living area has always been good. Pursuing an unknown destination gave everyone hope of changing the situation, including Wu Qi. Is Wu Qi more calm? Wu Qi occasionally thought that perhaps in the entire team, he was the one who had the deepest desire to return to the high wall, because he wanted to find a way out for Gao Yuan, Guo Baibo and others.
The sun was high in the sky, hanging in the center of the sky. Wu Qi asked Gu Changzai to slow down the car and planned to explain the matter clearly after lunch.
At the dinner table, Guo Baibo was talking and laughing as usual, while Wu Qi was silent. In fact, he was not like this at ordinary times. Bu Nao tomorrow's lofty gaze would often focus on Wu Qi's face, as if he knew something.
"Boss."
"What's wrong?"
Gao Yuan suddenly patted Wu Qi's thigh during the meal. Wu Qi was trying to organize the words he wanted to say in his mind, and was stunned for a moment.
"He had something to tell me."
Gao Yuan and Wu Qi stood up and left the table. Guo Baibo shouted: "Hey, where are we going?"
Gao Yuan gave Guo Baibo a "shush" leg gesture, and then went to the next room with Wu Qi.
"Why is Gao Yuan so weird tomorrow? The food won't taste good." Guo Baibo said doubtfully.
Gu Changzai glanced at the crack in the door, and then said glibly: "They probably want to discuss something and will be back soon. Besides, he's not there?"
Guo Baibai turned around to feed the little red fox. Gu Chang coughed dryly and then shut up.
Next room. Gao Yuan and Wu Qi looked at each other.
"Boss."
"Have something to say."
"He looked at the dash cam and the warehouse."
