Chapter 41: Program

Jiang Baimian seemed to have been thinking about this issue for a long time, smiled, and said casually:

"It's not too difficult. In this way, I will wear the exoskeleton device and use its comprehensive early warning system and my own induction of electrical signals to surprise Jingfa.

"Unexpectedly, he might be hit hard."

"He is an awakened." Shang Jianyao pointed out the problem.

Jiang Baimian tsk tsk said with a smile:

"I'm not stupid, I've already suffered losses, how can I not consider this factor

"I will try to keep the distance at more than 50 meters. This should exceed the limit of Jingfa's 'Hungry Ghost Dao' ability, otherwise, he would not activate his ability after jumping from a tree before, and at this distance, I have a decent hit rate, even with a grenade gun."

Regarding Jiang Baimian's statement, Shang Jianyao and others thought for a moment and then accepted it, but Bai Chen quickly raised another question:

"After you and Shang Jianyao have swapped places, who will drive the car? Who will ensure that the long-range attack of Jingfa can be avoided in advance?"

Jiang Baimian "hiss":

"This is indeed a problem, and I think about how to solve it..."

Shang Jianyao was silent for two seconds, then took the initiative to say:

"I'll still come."

Jiang Baimian followed this proposal and said to himself:

"If you come, you have to change the plan.

"Compared to the monk Jingfa, you are almost inexperienced. If you give Jingfa a 'surprise' and try to inflict heavy damage on him, I am worried that it will cause you a great burden and a lot of pressure. Cause you to make mistakes in judgment and make mistakes at critical times.

"Well... In this way, since Jingfa wants to go around in circles with you, you can go around in circles with him as much as you like and drive him farther away, and we will take this opportunity to drive the car to the place where people often come and go in the black marsh wilderness. , there are many car marks and footprints, which can effectively cover up our traces, so that the Pure Law can no longer find us and catch up.

"Don't talk... This brings up another problem. After you get rid of the purification method, you will definitely not be able to find us. That distance is definitely beyond the effective range of the walkie-talkie.

"I think about it, think about it, there is, agree on a more famous place in the wilderness, and meet there.

"Bai Chen, are there any landmarks nearby?"

Bai Chen looked around and looked at the sky:

"The only landmark nearby is the ruins of the steel mill.

"However, when we get to a place where people often come and go, with our current driving direction, we will go all the way to Yuelu Station."

"Yuelu Station?" Jiang Baimian frowned slightly, "How long will it take."

"It's about a day and a half to maintain the current speed, but it's definitely not possible to drive so fast on the way." Bai Chen estimated.

—The former relic hunter named Harris Brown and his companions took more than a day to reach the ruins of the steel factory from the north of Yuelu Station on the trail that they could walk on bicycles. Normally, it is impossible to rely on cars. Arrived so quickly, but the jeeps of Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao and others were chased by Jingfa, and ran at full speed towards Yuelu Station for a short time. Moreover, jeeps must be faster than bicycles. The destination is only Yuelu Station, and I never thought about going north.

Jiang Baimian nodded thoughtfully and said:

"If we use Yuelu Station as the meeting point, we can also try to fake some traces pointing to the north.

"If you have successfully gotten rid of the purification method before, it must be the best, if not, you can use this to induce him to the north, let him get involved in the unknown muddy water, and collide with the abnormal sound that sounds very dangerous. .

"After that, even if he has the ability to get rid of it, he should not be able to catch up with us."

As he talked, Jiang Baimian's voice, which was not small, became much louder, as if he was very excited to be able to get to the net.

Shang Jianyao listened silently, just like when he was in school, he raised his hand:

"I have a question."

"What?" Jiang Baimian was quite puzzled.

She felt that she had made it very clear.

Shang Jianyao said in a slightly dull voice:

"I don't know Yuelu Station, and I don't know how to get there."

"..." Jiang Baimian was speechless for a while.

After a few seconds, she laughed at herself:

"I forgot that you are a newbie to the surface...

"That means you're doing well!

"If it wasn't for me to concentrate on driving, I would give you a thumbs up!"

After forcibly explaining a wave, Jiang Baimian turned and sighed:

"I heard that before the destruction of the old world, there were many satellites available in the sky, which can help people easily locate their destination, so that even if they have never been there, they can skillfully choose the most suitable route to arrive.

"This... Let me wear the exoskeleton device. At that time, I will continue to drive, and after avoiding the first round of Jingfa's attack, I will get out of the car and chase him. Bai Chen takes the opportunity to climb to the driver's seat and take control car."

"What if Jingfa launched an attack when you were wearing the exoskeleton device?" Bai Chen thought of the hidden loopholes in the plan.

Jiang Baimian was at a loss for words, unable to speak.

Bai Chen glanced at the rearview mirror, his expression was as calm as ever:

"I also got off the bus, and I came to guide Shang Jianyao.

"The exoskeleton device simply carries a short person like me, so it shouldn't affect the ability to move and react very much."

"As I said, you are not short, you are petite. Your height is above average for people in the wilderness. I have seen homeless people who are less than one meter six." Jiang Bai Mian replied casually, then nodded and said, "I won't say that this is a very dangerous thing. Since it was born in the dust and reached the surface, it is a common development to take the corresponding risks when the time is right. If you need me to take risks, I won't pass the responsibility on to you."

She exhaled and reminded:

"Remember to bring some food."

Having said this, she suddenly closed her mouth and even released her right palm that was holding the steering wheel.

She raised her finger and pointed to the compressed biscuits and energy bars in the armrest box, then pointed to her own mouth, and made a puffing motion.

Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong were quite puzzled, and were about to ask when they saw Bai Chen turn his head and wink at them.

The two gave up the words that poured into their throats at the same time.

Although Bai Chen also didn't understand what Jiang Baimian wanted to express, she could see that the team leader was unwilling to do more exchanges on this topic, or even have a dialogue.

At this time, Jiang Baimian held the steering wheel again and turned to say:

"Shang Jianyao, you also have to think about how to deal with the 'hungry ghost' way of purifying the law.

"If he stops going around in circles, suddenly approaches you, and pulls the distance into the effective range of his ability, it will be troublesome."

"I'll be fine..." Having said that, Shang Jianyao paused for a while, then nodded his head, "Think about it!"

After answering, he quickly said to Bai Chen:

"It's not too late, we bring the food and get ready to get off.

"You can also eat a little now, and you may not be able to stop eating for a long time."

"Okay." Bai Chen picked up the food in the armrest box and gave half of it to Shang Jianyao.

Shang Jianyao opened a bag of compressed biscuits and stuffed the food inside into his mouth.

After less than a minute, Jiang Baimian jerked the steering wheel, allowing the jeep to dodge the laser emitted by Jingfa.

Without any instructions, Shang Jianyao opened the car door and saved the jeep - this time, instead of rolling down, he jumped with force.

With a snort, a laser penetrated somewhere on the surface again.

If Shang Jianyao rolled down like he did before, he would have been hit by this laser now—even if the exoskeleton device was partially armored, he would not be spared.

Immediately afterwards, he used his knees to push the auxiliary joints up, and the whole person jumped a dozen or twenty meters in one fell swoop, heading straight for Jingfa in the distance.

The mechanical monk's purification method was the same as the previous few times, he immediately retreated, opened the distance, and circled.

Taking this opportunity, Jiang Baimian slammed on the brakes and slowed down the car, allowing Bai Chen to roll from the co-pilot position to the ground without injury.

In the voice of Zi Liu, Bai Chen closed the door, rolled around and hid behind a low bush.

The speed of the jeep soared again in an instant, heading towards the road that was often traveled by people in the Black Marsh wilderness.

At this time, Shang Jianyao, who had driven Jingfa far away, returned to the vicinity.

He, whose body was covered with an iron-black metal skeleton and a small amount of armor, pointed to the energy backpack behind him and motioned Bai Chen to sit here.

Bai Chen jumped out of the bushes, the auxiliary joints of the exoskeleton device were "ladders" and "grip hands", and he climbed onto the energy backpack with two rubs.

This made her much taller than Shang Jianyao even when she was sitting.

And compared to holding her with one hand, this is the way that does not affect the movement and aiming of the exoskeleton device.

Next, they have to chase Jingfa all the way, drive the mechanical monk to a farther place, and circle with him in this area, so as to buy time for Jiang Baimian and Long Yuehong to get out of Jingfa's tracking range.

Shang Jianyao, who was wearing a metal helmet, ran two or three steps, and when no one was attacked, he actually jumped and rolled.

Bai Chen shrunk his body, clutching the metal bone on the shoulder of the exoskeleton device tightly, preventing himself from being thrown out.

She understands that Shang Jianyao is doing more running-in before Jingfa counterattacks.

After tumbling a few times, Shang Jianyao, wearing an exoskeleton device, took a big step, relying on the remote vision brought by the comprehensive early warning system, chasing after the mechanical monk wearing a red cassock.

Jingfa's eyes were bright red, as if seeing women in an unstable state.

His metal knuckles bent, and the whole person bounced up and jumped to the side.

He is not completely crazy, and is still executing the predetermined strategy. After all, his hatred of women comes from the psychological distortion caused by the body, not the price that the awakened person needs to pay, and he has a certain ability of self-control.

Seeing this, Shang Jianyao, who was hanging a grenade, did not return as before, and continued to chase after Jingfa, trying to narrow the distance.

After chasing and escaping for several minutes, Bai Chen on the energy backpack suddenly bent down and said in a deep voice:

"wrong.

"Jingfa is going in circles in the direction of the jeep!

"He wants to bypass us and continue to chase after the team leader!"
