Chapter 555 Zhuge revisits
Chapter 555 Zhuge visits again
When Cao Bo woke up, he jumped into the glass tank again, and did not come out to rest until he was exhausted. Even the spirit breeder was ashamed of Cao Bo's lifeless training method, and Xu Chu persuaded Cao more than once.
Don't work so hard. Whether you can practice it is one thing. If you destroy your body and get sick, it won't be worth the loss.【】
However, it has been three days in a row, and Cao Bo feels that his progress is not very fast. Although he can now extend his underwater existence by one or two minutes longer than initially, Cao Bo still has to use all his energy to eliminate the underwater pressure.
, is already looking for oxygen everywhere to supply himself with breathing.
Moreover, Cao Bo found that when he did this, he needed to consume oxygen more quickly, and the diving effect was not as long as directly holding his breath.
However, there is still room for improvement. Cao Bo is now quite sensitive to underwater pressure, and he can even control certain aspects of water pressure at will.
For example, if Cao Bo wants to float, he will only remove the pressure around his body, leaving only the buoyancy force from bottom to top; and if Cao Bo wants to sink, the opposite is true, and the water pressure from above his head will press him down.
Gotta dive.
Of course, in addition to these, Cao Bo had other gains. For example, when he turned on the water pump under the glass tank and produced a tide-like flow of water in the glass tank, Cao Bo could already use the pressure from everywhere.
It changed and moved freely in the glass jar.
This is similar to how Cao Bo placed many obstacles in the room and did high-speed avoidance training before participating in family competitions. Now Cao Bo is more comfortable using water motion to train.
But this is all Cao Bo has been training in the past few days. He has not yet learned how to be distracted and balance attack and defense. This is also the thing that worries him the most. Cao Bo even felt a little disappointed at one time because he himself
I feel like the progress is simply too slow.
Just as Cao Bo covered his face with a handkerchief and lay on the bench to rest, Xu Chu suddenly woke him up and told Cao Bo that an old friend was coming to him.
Old friend? Cao Bo suddenly sat up from his chair: "Who is here?"
"Zhuge Ji!" When Xu Chu said this name, Cao Bo quickly wiped his head dry, threw the towel into Xu Chu's arms, hurriedly changed his clothes at the door and walked out.
"Where is he?" Cao Bo walked out for a few seconds before reappearing at the door.
"In your room!" Xu Chu scratched his head while looking at Cao Bo who disappeared from the door in the blink of an eye: "My lord, it's really strange. It's not the mistress who came to express condolences. Why is a bad old man so anxious..."
Of course Xu Chu couldn't understand Cao Bo's thoughts. There were several main reasons why Cao Bo was so anxious.
First of all, of course, although the old man Zhuge Ji is an elder of the Liu Yan family, he still admires Cao Bo. Cao Bo does not feel that this old man is his enemy or anything because of the relationship between Zhuge Ji and Liu Yan.
On the contrary, Cao Bo felt that Zhuge Ji was very close to him.
And even though Zhuge Ji brought Liu Yan's sincerity last time, Cao Bo was still more worried about Sun Xiao. In Cao Bo's case, that guy was simply too simple. Although he was the head of the Sun family, he seemed a little inexperienced in the world.
, it is too easy to trust others. If it were Cao Bo, Liu Yan, who had deceived him once, would never trust him a second time.
Therefore, the reason why Cao Bo was so eager to meet Zhuge Ji was because he wanted to find out about the current situation of Sun Xiao and Liu Yan. Cao Bo was still uneasy about the good relationship between these two people.
Finally, Cao Bo is not satisfied with the recent situation. Because Zhuge Ji once gave him some advice, Cao Bo is wondering if he can let Zhuge Ji give him some advice again. Although the method of using distraction is easy to say, it is difficult to do.
Not simple at all.
"Master Cao, are you okay?" Zhuge Ji stood up immediately after Cao Bo entered the room, and Cao Bo was a little embarrassed by the other party's politeness. After all, Zhuge Ji was much older than him, and to put it bluntly, he could have been Cao Bo.
Grandpa.
"Mr. Zhuge, please don't be so polite. I don't know what to do with you." Cao Bo asked Zhuge Ji to sit down quickly. When he saw a teapot sitting on the small table next to Zhuge Ji, it should be that Xu Chu had just arrived.
Serving.
"I wonder how Liu Yan is doing lately?" Cao Bo asked intentionally. He and Liu Yan had a normal relationship, and they were considered equals and did not need honorifics at all.
Moreover, the reason why Cao Bo asked Liu Yan was because Xiangzhuang's sword dancing ambition was Peigong. He wanted to indirectly inquire about Sun Xiao's current situation, but he was worried that Zhuge would be too worried if he asked directly.
However, Zhuge Ji still laughed twice. He stroked his beard and nodded and said: "Master Cao, don't worry. My young master has been working hard and practicing hard recently, and he also accepted two tasks from the Sun family. Fortunately, he has completed one of them.
The other one is still being implemented."
Cao Bo immediately became curious when he heard what the other party said. He asked what mission Liu Yan had taken on recently, and Zhuge Ji said that Sun Xiao already knew about the Zhibu demon that appeared in Cao Cao's tomb last time.
Because he was in charge of the undersea laboratory on the mainland, when he found traces of demons, Sun Xiao monitored the situation near the undersea laboratory even more vigorously.
"Not long ago, there was a group of demons and demonoids who gathered together to destroy the power station, hoping to hinder the development and construction of the undersea laboratory." Zhuge Ji said that at that time, Sun Xiao felt that if the power station and power transmission were to happen,
If a problem occurs, although it will not completely paralyze the submarine base, after all, the laboratory has its own independent generator, it can create panic in the city, which will create a series of problems and allow those demons to take advantage of it.
So when Sun Xiao learned about this situation, he immediately assigned Liu Yan to exterminate those demons, and he also had KK troops to cooperate with Sun Xiao's Taishi Jin.
This is not a difficult task, and Cao Bo also knows the power of Liu Yan's men. What's more, they are just a ragtag group of demons and demon-like people. Cao Bo feels that sending Liu Yan is overkill, let alone bringing along
Got the KK unit and that young man Tai Shijin.
Sun Xiao should be here to test Liu Yan's sincerity and ability, and the reason why he sent his capable subordinates out was probably to observe from the sidelines, hoping to get a clear answer.
According to Zhuge Ji's brief recollection of that operation, not only was the arrangement very thorough, but it also moved very quickly. Liu Yan used almost all the power he could mobilize to attack the demons in a devastating way, and in a very short time
Destroy them all inside! The most valuable thing is that the operation did not alarm ordinary people, and the mission was completed in a stealthy manner from beginning to end.
Cao Bo nodded while listening, because he knew Liu Yan's ability. If this boy was serious, there would be very few things he couldn't do, not to mention that he had two great think tanks, Zhuge Ji and Pang Qingyuan, behind him.
From this incident, maybe Liu Yan has really changed his ways? Although Cao Bo is not a petty person, it is difficult for him to trust those who have betrayed his trust for a second time.
So even if Zhuge Ji said that Sun Xiao was satisfied with the results of this operation, Cao Bo still had reservations, and Cao Bo didn't think Liu Yan had completely changed anything, but Liu Yan's heart hadn't been exposed yet.
That's all.
However, Cao Bo showed no signs of behavior in front of Zhuge Ji. He nodded with a smile, and then asked: "Then the old gentleman came to me this time for the second task, right?"
Zhuge Ji seemed to have known that Cao Bo would ask this question for a long time. He stroked his beard, smiled and nodded and said: "You are indeed a young talent. You are really much better than us old guys!"
"You're welcome. There are many things I have to learn from your older generation." Cao Bo told the truth, and Zhuge Ji also had an admiring expression on his face. The old man just liked a low-key and respectful person like Cao Bo.
"I told you about those portraits last time. The master of the Sun family wanted us to get together a few portraits as soon as possible and find the Feng Shui matrix to activate." Zhuge Ji didn't have to come to Cao Bo specifically this time, but
After all, the Liu family is still quite powerful on the mainland, but after going abroad, they can hardly do anything, so they thought of asking Cao Bo to help.
Zhuge Ji said that he had indeed found some relevant historical materials through searches recently. There was a vague mention that the heart of the matrix should be somewhere in the coastal city on the mainland, and the five corresponding figures were also scattered in Asia. After all, thousands of
Years ago, the development of science and technology and civilization was centered on the Eurasian continent, and the Americas and other places were considered uncivilized lands by barbarians, so it was impossible for that kind of matrix to exist.
"What do you mean, you want me to help find out the news in South Korea?" Cao Bo said it straight to the point, without hiding anything at all. What Zhuge Ji meant was that not only South Korea, but also the other side wanted to get rid of Cao Bo.
Bo.
"We know that you have a good relationship with Oda Nobunaga, and because he is in charge of the undersea laboratory project with you, so..." Zhuge Ji hesitated for a moment, then said directly: "Because of the ancient countries and the mutual economy at that time, and
The Japanese pirates in those days also frequently attacked the coastal cities of China." Zhuge Ji wondered whether there would be people like that time, either going to South Korea for trade or being robbed?
Cao Bo nodded and felt that what Zhuge Ji guessed was impossible. However, this little figure was too ordinary after all. If it were placed there, it would be ordinary and there would be nothing special about it at all.
So Cao Bo was worried that even if he sent people out to search, it would be difficult to find them. However, Zhuge Ji told Cao Bo that the material of these portraits was very unique. Last time before Zhuge Ji gave the portrait to Cao Bo, Liu Yan had already
We sent people to study it and built a detection device based on this.
However, because there is only a slight radioactive source on the figurine, the range of the detection device is only fifteen kilometers, which requires a lot of manpower and material resources to search.
"If we can do this, it will not only be a great help to our young master, but it will also be a great benefit to mankind!" Zhuge Ji said that as long as Cao Bo helps, Liu Yan will try his best no matter what the conditions are.
Satisfied.
"Actually, there's nothing else." Cao Bo smiled slightly, thinking that he had finally waited for the opportunity. He leaned out towards Zhuge Ji and asked in a low voice: "I have encountered a bottleneck in my recent training, and I hope the old gentleman can help solve my problem.
Chapter completed!
