Chapter 222 What does the city sewer look like in the desert?
In the alleys interspersed between the towers, few idlers pass by, and Mang Xing follows Ziyuan, walking all the way.
"Speaking of which, why would I be chased by those puppets after I jumped off the tower, and now we won't be found."
Mang Xing asked, as if his own landing triggered some signal, now that he has walked for so long but has not met any puppets, it is really weird.
"That." The girl walked in front, thinking for a while: "You must have been seen by the monitor when you fell."
"monitor?"
Mang Xing was taken aback for a moment, he thought the Chakra network here had something similar to an enchantment to detect intruders.
Unexpectedly, it was the use of technological means.
"That's right, there are surveillance cameras around the main passages of the whole city that are checked by people 24 hours a day. But it's bad luck to be caught by someone as soon as you come up."
The girl naturally didn't know that surveillance cameras hadn't become popular at this point in time.
It is not surprising that Mang Xing knew about surveillance when he was young.
"Surveillance is everywhere. This situation is a bit difficult for me."
If it's a ninja's method, Mang Xing still has a way to deal with it.
But the simple camera can easily integrate with the surrounding buildings in Mang Xing's perception.
If you are not careful, you will be exposed to the view of the surveillance camera.
"I almost forgot, my dad can't see at this time. In this case, you can only stay with me and act."
The girl covered her forehead with her hands in distress.
After hearing this, Mang Xing asked back: "You mean, the eyes of my future self have recovered?"
"That's not what I said." Zi Yuan quickly denied.
By chance, the two of them had already reached their destination. The girl ran two quick steps, bent down and put her hands in the groove of the sewer manhole cover.
"Clang, clang, my temporary base has arrived!"
"Did you live in the sewer all this time?"
Mang Xing didn't ask any more questions about the future, and walked up to Zi Yuan, and helped them remove the manhole cover of the sewer.
Coming to the dark hole, his nostrils were slightly wrinkled, and he didn't smell any strange smell, so he couldn't help asking:
"It doesn't smell like a sewer here."
"Of course it's not a sewer." Ziyuan looked at her young father with the eyes of a fool. "How could I live in a sewer. Besides, this is a desert, and there is no need to build a complicated drainage system with limited precipitation."
"Then what is this?"
"I don't know either, maybe it's a special channel for transporting something? Anyway, I've lived here for a few months, and I don't need to worry about safety issues at all, so you can follow me down with confidence."
The girl replied indifferently. Holding the metal ladder, she descended step by step to the bottom of the well. The sound of her feet landing echoed in the hollow underground passage.
The girl was in the sewer, and signaled Mang Xing to come down quickly: "Young dad, you can come down now."
"You stay away." Standing outside, Mang Xing shouted towards the inside.
His arm was fixed by the branch, unable to bend to grab the ladder, he could only choose to jump straight down.
"Oh~"
After waiting for a while, Mang Xing jumped down and hit the ground of the sewer after a short period of weightlessness.
In Mang Xing's perception, this place is indeed as Zi Yuan said.
No sewage, trash, or crawling rodents, more like some sort of secret passage than a sewer.
If he could see it, he would also find that the lights below had never been extinguished and looked very bright.
"You have been here for so long, have you walked to the end of this sewer to check?"
The sound waves spread continuously along the tunnel, beyond the range that Mang Xing could perceive.
The maze-like sewer is full of strange forks.
"Knowing that there might be danger, how could I take the risk to investigate?" Ziyuan spread her arms and said, "I'm an academic ninja."
"Academic ninja?" A bad thought flashed in Mang Xing's mind.
"That's right, I haven't mastered any fighting skills."
The girl who was born in a peaceful age said it as a matter of course.
"So, if I didn't come here by coincidence, what are you going to do?"
Mang Sing stroked his chin and asked a sharp question.
"I believe Dad, you will definitely come back and save me!" the girl said in a very admiring tone.
"Understood, there is absolutely no way." Mang Xing confirmed with a nod.
"Don't spoil people's innocence for nothing." Zi Yuan, who was walking in front, turned her head and protested: "It took me a few months to get a clear picture of the situation in Loulan."
"So, what useful information did you get?"
The girl stretched out a finger: "First of all, Loulan was still a nomadic settlement more than ten years ago."
"and then?"
"More than ten years ago, several outsiders were rescued by the previous queen. In order to repay the queen's life-saving grace, they felt that they would help the queen realize the prosperity of the tribe."
"Sounds like a very old-fashioned development. I'm afraid it was later occupied by doves and magpies' nests?"
Ziyuan shook her finger: "No, with the help of outsiders, the queen gradually established the prototype of this city, which also aroused the vigilance of the surrounding countries. As the queen, she decided to personally go on an envoy to reach friendly allies with neighboring countries. "
"Then her goal must be very difficult."
The current Loulan has neither the previous queen, nor is it recognized by the outside world. It is obviously an accident.
"On the way to the envoy, she was attacked by Sand Hidden Rebellion, and she was wiped out together with the guards."
After Ziyuan finished speaking, the topic changed:
"However, there is also a saying that the former queen was assassinated by the current minister Baizu. Because as the years passed, the old people who built the city with the queen all died in accidents. Around Queen Sarah."
"Well, it doesn't sound like Baizu is a good person. Maybe we can gain the trust of the Loulan people by exposing his true colors, so that we can use their power to send you back."
"On the contrary, despite such claims, Baizu is a good minister in the eyes of the people of Loulan. After all, the current life is brought to them by Baizu."
"Does he have no plans? Is it really for revenge?"
Mang Xing can't understand, this guy named Baizu has been back in the past for more than ten years, if he wants to get something, he should have got it long ago.
Unless this guy really has a heart with lofty ambitions and wants to create peace for the ninja world.
"But this guy participated in the rebellion in the future, could it be that the future me—"
As a rebel, he came back through time travel only to develop technology, and looked like a positive character. Wouldn't his future self become a villain?
"You think too much, this guy is definitely not a good person."
Turning again at a fork in the tunnel, the two got into a dead end. Ziyuan stopped, her hands knotted in front of her chest.
As she softly shouted "Solution", the dead end in Mang Xing's perception was broken like a piece of glass, revealing the hidden tunnel behind.
