Chapter 19 Close Maneuver (1)

An Xiaoyu was finally rescued. She and Chu Sui walked in the wet tunnel for a whole night, although they were underground and didn't know that it was already evening. After all the water in the mine fell, Chi Mo organized a special search and rescue team, each team was equipped with a veteran team of miners, three young and strong miners who handled the situation in the mine, four armed armed groups with live ammunition, and two medical personnel from the logistics team.

A total of 1,000 people Lu Xu went down to the mine and began to search and rescue the people stranded in the mine to the well-connected branches. Because there were insufficient medical personnel in the base, he also applied to call a part of the military region of the army stationed in the desert. The entire search and rescue lasted for five days.

An Xiaoyu and Chu Sui were first found and brought out. When they saw Chi Mo, An Xiaoyu finally couldn't help but pounced on his arms and burst into tears. The optimism and tenacity shown by this girl from the East Wilderness during this day and night made Chu Sui, a miner with two years of working years, admired him and yearned for him even more.

When he saw the man holding the girl he was thinking about was the highest officer of his base, his strong shoulders shook slightly. Although he had heard An Xiaoyu talk about her and Chi Mo's things for a long time, he could not accept it after all.

The coworker next to him rushed over, hugged his shoulder, and carefully asked about his physical condition. He then came to his senses and forced himself to forget An Xiaoyu's smile, inquire about the situation of the team that had entered the mine with him, while walking towards the medical area specially opened.

An Xiaoyu was sent back to his room by Chi Mo. After changing his clothes, he felt that his feet began to hurt violently. The backpack in his hand became as heavy as sand. He put it on the ground and opened it, taking out the clothes inside one by one and hang it up.

The big book distributed by Sanqian Academy was soaked in water, but after I opened it, I found that the paper was wet, but the handwriting was not blurred at all. It was probably a paper made of special material, which made An Xiaoyu feel relieved.

These days, she has read this book more important than anything else. She deeply realized that without the things recorded in this book, it would be difficult for her to integrate into the life of the base these days, let alone the life after leaving the Eastern Wilderness and entering the imperial capital.

She took a hot shower and when she wiped her body, the door was knocked. She hurriedly changed into clothes and put her wet hair aside. Her hair had grown over her shoulders these days, making her look even more petite and cute.

When he opened the door, he saw Chi Mo standing at the door, carrying two lunch boxes that can be taken away by the canteen. An Xiaoyu let him in, and the two sat down at the table, slowly watching it as a meal. Chi Mo asked her very carefully what happened, whether she had been injured, and whether she would feel uncomfortable in her body.

In fact, when leaving the mine, the medical version had conducted a full-body examination on everyone rescued. An Xiaoyu was healthy and strong, and did not hit the bulge when she was impacted by the water flow, so there was no problem except for a few scratches and bruises.

An Xiaoyu said everything about what he had returned to the base and asked: "When I was under the mine, I encountered a ferry. What is the ferry?"

"The Ferry is a very rare species in the Eastern Desert. It has not been encountered many times in the statistics of the Three Thousand Empires. Because they usually live in places with groundwater flow and rarely come out from the depths of the desert, so the entire tribe often uses a hole for going out." Chi Mo explained: "This kind of thing is survived by looking for insects that cool down in the deep sand to make food, so it is very powerful to dig holes. The flood in the base was caused by the Ferry and the insect tide passing up and down."

"Because they dig holes? Can such small animals make such big holes?"

"The one you saw was so small, it must have been just born. In a few days, you go outside the base to see the smallest body that was beaten to death outside is as big as a transport truck. Originally, there was no groundwater flow during the construction of the base, and they were attracted by one."

"Oh." An Xiaoyu finally gave up the urge to raise one. Suddenly she thought of Chu Sui again: "Thanks to Chu Sui when you are down, you must thank him well, why don't we have dinner together one day?"

Chi Mo nodded with a smile: "Okay."

"Also, do you have to search all the mines this time?"

"Um."

"Can you find Zhang Shujie by the way?" An Xiaoyu frowned.

Chi Mo looked at her and reached out to touch her head: "I must be looking for it, I've been helping you find her."

An Xiaoyu then started to laugh.

After the two of them finished their meal slowly, Chi Mo's communicator rang out. When they were connected, they heard Bai Amaranth shouting angrily on the other end: "Where are you dead? Come to the control room!"

The voice came to an abrupt end, and An Xiaoyu felt a little embarrassed. The base had just been destroyed, and Chi Mo, as the Supreme Military Chief, had a lot of things to deal with, and he had to take time to accompany him. What if he got angry like amaranth?

So she sent Chi Mo out and said softly: "When you have a job, you won't use it. I'll go to the cafeteria for dinner by myself. The matters at the base are more important."

Chi Mo looked at her and said, "None of them is as important as you."

An Xiaoyu felt sweet in her heart: "Well, I know, you go quickly."

Watching Chi Mo leave, An Xiaoyu feels that she is the happiest person in the world.

That night, no sound came from the dark corner in the corridor. There was no situation again for four nights. It was probably the last time that the entire laboratory had been moved from there. An Xiaoyu once took advantage of the fact that no one had looked there, and the access control on the door was no longer powered. It was obvious that the building was empty. Although the matter had not been understood, she was indeed relieved.

On the fourth day, dying people began to be rescued from the pit, and on the fifth day, only corpses were left. Some people encountered adult ferry in the pit and were swallowed, some were trapped in a narrow space and suffocated, and some were starved to death without food.

An Xiaoyu was glad that she and Chu Sui quickly found the right path that day, walked to the upper level of the mine, and encountered a rescue team on the first day. But she and Chu Sui knew that it was not Chu Sui's work experience that helped them, but an unknown person.

Lying on the bed at night, An Xiaoyu held a white ball in her hand. One side of the ball was lit with green spots, and the green light flashed, illuminating her face. When she let go of her hand, it floated in the air and stopped moving.

That day, Chu Sui and An Xiaoyu sat on the elevator from the bottom layer. It seemed that they had passed many layers, but they were still at the bottom of the mine. Chu Sui had no impression of this area at all. They walked a lot of roads and tried many passages, but in the end they did not find the next lift that went straight upward.

Hunger and fatigue slowly eroded their bodies and spirits. The two of them finally couldn't walk anymore. They sat in a dry corner and thought about whether to continue walking or wait for rescue. Now that they thought, no matter which way they chose, they might be like the people they had rescued in the past two days, either leaving only one breath or dying in that place.

Just when they were in despair, An Xiaoyu looked up and saw a light lit up in the distance of the pit. She pulled Chu Sui's arm: "Look at what is that? The green light!"

Chu Sui was shocked and thought of the steppet wolf next door at the junction of the Eastern Wilderness and the Plain. At night, a faint green light flashed in the hungry eyes of the wolves. He quickly looked into the distance, but found that the green light was so pure and heartwarming, just like the green leaves in mid-spring.

What's this?

Both of them became curious.

The green light flew along the tunnel and flew towards An Xiaoyu and the others. It soon came to their side and stopped in front of them. Only then did they see the white ball with green light. It circled around An Xiaoyu's body twice and flew towards the place where it came.

An Xiaoyu didn't know what was going on, so she stood there with Chu Sui in a daze. The ball flew a few meters away. She found that no one was following and was spinning violently in the spot.

An Xiaoyu guessed: "It let us follow it?"

Chu Sui couldn't figure out what this was, so he asked, "Right?"

The two hesitated for a moment, followed by the ball, and it stopped turning around and led the way in front of it. Soon, they saw the shaft of the elevator, followed by the next one, and the elevators took them slowly to climb upwards.

When he reached the upper part of the mine, Chu Sui even felt that some places had been brought by an old miner once, and he looked very familiar. The ball suddenly restrained its green light and suddenly drilled into An Xiaoyu's backpack. When the two of them were not sure about it, a human voice came from the front.

For some reason, An Xiaoyu concealed the white ball from the search and rescue team, saying that she was washed down by water, and then met Chu Sui. Then the two of them walked here and met them. Chu Sui also cooperated to tell the experiences of the two of them according to her statement.

At some point, she firmly believed that the ball was sent to her by Chi Mo, but the matter was not as she imagined. After leaving the mine, Chi Mo seemed particularly surprised and looked unprepared. An Xiaoyu had also tried it twice, but it turned out that the ball still had unknown origin.

With confusion, she hid the matter of this ball deeply in her heart. If this is someone who can truly help her put down the mine, then who is this person? Why doesn't he appear in front of her? Is it because he doesn't want to let herself know? Or because she doesn't want Chi Mo to know? So she can't say it because she is afraid that she will never help her again.

Every night, she would look at the ball for a while, wondering what the person behind it was, and wondering what it was. Since it could find itself in the mine, it was obviously an intelligent thing. First, it would identify the face, secondly, it would store the map, and then determine the location.

But where is the switch for this thing?

An Xiaoyu looked at it many times and found that the ball was covered with white and round, with no buttons or jacks, and there was no window even when the position was glowing, so it was voice-controlled? An Xiaoyu seemed to have discovered something new, sat up from the bed, letting the ball float in front of him. Looking at its green light, An Xiaoyu cleared his throat and said in a low voice:

"menu."

The green photoelectric on the white ball flashed quickly, and instantly turned blue. Suddenly, a blue menu option was projected in front of An Xiaoyu.

An Xiaoyu was shocked and stared at the menu in front of her. She didn't expect that she had succeeded. Could it be that there was no voiceprint recognition?

She opened the menu and found the voiceprint lock. She clicked on it and found that the voiceprint lock was identified, but there was only one voiceprint entered.
