The enemies were extremely jealous when they saw each other. The driver who was operating the big car stuck his head out of the car window and yelled: "Did you, you little pretty boy, come here specifically to seek death?"
That feeling is probably the same as if I disagree with you, I will drive you over and kill you.
Long Qi didn't care, but Lao Xiong turned his body sideways, pulled away some distance, and raised his hand to tell the agitated driver to stop talking. He held on to his safety helmet and smiled softly:
"Mr. Long, right? We are just pulling earth. I don't know where I offended you..."
"Don't be so polite, we are just passing by. Really, many people can testify!" Long Qi told the truth confidently, and he was still aggrieved, "It's inexplicable that Mr. Tai of yours has such a name. We are all old acquaintances.
Asking a question almost killed us."
The old bear's face twitched and he didn't respond.
Long Qi was familiar with him: "Have we met this person before? I stayed in your camp for a long time last year..."
"This, there shouldn't be."
"Oh, you don't usually stay in the tribe?"
"It's true that there are more people running outside." Old Xiong became more and more uncomfortable as he spoke. He stretched out his hand to remove his helmet and his face drooped. "Mr. Long, you were passing by to see the scene, but you really took away the policeman's job.
It’s almost done.”
"I'm ashamed. Actually, the police uncle asked too many questions and got infected. Old Xiong...that's what I call him. You are Mr. Tai's confidant. You will inevitably be asked later. It doesn't matter if you practice it in advance."
Lao Xiong definitely wanted to hit someone, but Long Qi, who was tall and armored, could only swallow a mouthful of evil breath because he probably didn't have the guts to attack someone head-on.
Not far from where the two were talking, Mo Mo was on top of a transport truck, flapping his wings and quacking twice.
Netizens who had followed the transition shots and saw most of the process here also expressed:
"Hang your face...this is the flying general's shooting curtain, the arrow has reached home!"
"Is it really good to add insult to injury?"
"Ah, brother Qi, don't become a villain!"
Of course, some people think something is wrong:
“Shouldn’t the focus be on the parade conspiracy?”
"This lens language..."
"Brother Qi, what are you implying?"
Long Qi did not prod the old bear any more. His next move was to squat down next to the old bear. Without caring about the closer distance between him and the black and smelly water body, he stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of sand and gravel that almost touched the edge of the sewage.
Rubbing it in the palm of my hand.
Gravel and small stones hit his palms, making a crunching sound - but through the thick hand armor, he didn't know what he could feel.
Everyone could tell that Lao Xiong definitely didn’t want to get together with this tough and difficult-looking guy. He took another step back, but hesitated and did not leave.
Long Qi's voice rang out again: "This Hijikata thing is a good thing. It costs a small amount but makes a big profit...Old Xiong, you must have made a lot of money by doing this."
Old Xiong was called out again, and he could only respond with a frown: "It's a long way to go."
"Haha, this kind of work is all about demolishing the east and repairing the west, combining excavation and filling... you can earn two kinds of money for one trip. Aren't you inspecting the fifth district for renovation and upgrading? There must be a construction site, right?"
"No way, the construction over there hasn't started yet. Besides, we are serious business and we collect earthwork at fixed points, and we don't dare to use the dregs to make up for it."
"Oh, this is a lot of money."
Old Xiong forced a smile: "Who says it's not the case?"
Long Qi nodded and rubbed harder. The fine gravel flowed down from between his fingers, leaving only a few pebbles rolling on the surface of the protective gloves:
"The cost is indeed sufficient. If you ask me, it's not about reclamation of the sea or lake, it's just a smelly puddle. It's enough to fill it with dirt. I'm afraid such good sand and gravel can't be dug from the old river channel.
of?"
Old Xiong listened to Long Qi's eloquent words, and his expression softened a little: "It's almost the same, but it's not a river... There are many defense projects nearby, and it can't be dug easily. It mainly comes from the abandoned reservoir."
"That's an old project from a hundred years ago. The stones and rammed soil that were paved a hundred years ago were dug out and thrown away. It's a pity... Are the standards of municipal engineering so high now?"
The old bear grinned: "The reservoir will be blown up anyway, so there's nothing wrong with digging it now. If it can be done well, who wouldn't want to do it well?"
"That makes sense, that makes sense." Long Qi nodded repeatedly, while twisting the stones between his fingers more and more smoothly.
They were chatting here, and many people in the live broadcast room couldn’t stand it:
"What do you mean? You can't discriminate against me just because I'm not from Xiacheng!"
"The people from Xiacheng who had no idea in their minds crawled by silently."
"Class representative, come out quickly!"
"It seems that this is not the first time today that we talk about the old river channel."
"Yes, Brother Qi and Mr. Intelligence Officer discussed it before."
"ZM is so old, it's already the 22nd century, and the live broadcast doesn't even have a replay function!"
"The most disgusting thing is that you can't record the screen! Who can tell me how to capture this damn detailed live broadcast? I will review it tonight!"
"Off-screen recording to find out."
"Do you think I don't know? The problem is that the accounts are interconnected. No matter what smart device you use, as long as it is controlled by your personal brain, permission will not be given according to the agreement!"
"Traditional camera enthusiasts say it's not a problem."
"Ask for resources!"
"Soaring 1,180 degrees into the air and falling to the ground with only underwear on, I beg the team of ladies to release the official replay version, the original version, streamlined, recharge, you can charge whatever you want!"
"Come, come, come to the demon-eye female demiplane!"
Cumin noodles came out again. Not only was it a "verbal" advertisement, but it also risked being banned and blocked by sending a link to the live broadcast room - she didn't know that the barrage in the live broadcast room did not support external links and links at all.
Copy?
Zhong Man sighed, but quickly switched the interface and took a look at the demiplane.
There are no eye-catching new posts there, but the rational discussion post posted by "Deep Sea Buddha" not long ago has rapidly increased in popularity.
Click on it, and sure enough, the spontaneously formed "four-hour truth restoration" activity is going on simultaneously with the discussion of the live broadcast plot, and is in full swing.
Compared with live broadcast rooms, forums are indeed better at storing large amounts of information and conducting in-depth discussions.
It didn't take much effort for Zhong Man to find content about the "Old River Channel", with pictures, texts, and video introductions - it is one of the hot topics of discussion at the moment, and it seems to have been going on for quite some time.
Zhong Man took a quick glance and knew that the impression in his mind was correct.
As a native of Xiacheng and a graduate of the Department of Photography, which has a lot of photography activities, Zhong Man has a good understanding of the geographical environment around Xiacheng.
This "old river" that has appeared many times in live broadcasts is actually part of a major national project at the end of the last century to solve the water problem of one or even multiple cities in the area around Xiacheng.
A hundred kilometers of water diversion project was built.
After several decades of maintenance and upgrades, it eventually became the lifeline that absorbs the freshwater resources of the two largest rivers in East Asia at the same time, supports half of the water used by the peninsula's coastal urban agglomerations, and is also an important part of ecological water replenishment in the surrounding areas.
This kind of project is a miracle no matter what age it is.
However, after the Third World War, the era of distortion came, and after decades of decline and reconstruction, when humans regained a foothold in this area, they established summer cities in the wilderness and ruins, but then entered a relatively closed metropolitan area.
stage.
Not to mention whether the Xiacheng government itself has the human and financial resources to continue to maintain this major project covering hundreds of kilometers of river basins. The continuous deterioration of this river and the surrounding distorted environment has become an insurmountable and fatal problem.
In the worst stage, people must compete for limited fresh water resources from the mouths of the mutants that have penetrated layer by layer along the rivers and underground culvert networks. At the same time, there are also crazy attacks by marine mutants behind the scenes.
"If it weren't for the fleet on the sea, everyone would be crazy to build a city here!"
The first mayor of Xia City described the situation that year like this.
Fortunately, it was also during this period that superconducting and fusion reactor technologies developed greatly, and with the support of huge amounts of energy, the cost of seawater purification continued to decrease, and the city's demand for terrestrial freshwater resources continued to decrease, and the situation improved.
Gradually, this water diversion channel and the upstream reservoir water network are no longer necessary for survival. Instead, they are a quick passage for a large number of aquatic anomalies to cross the outer defense line and pose a threat to the city.
Therefore, since the 1970s, the Xiacheng government has deliberately weakened the role of this river and the upstream reservoir. Finally, in 2086, the 100th anniversary of the groundbreaking of this miracle project, it was announced that it would be closed and abandoned, and the establishment of a
Set up a tight above-ground and underground defense line to eliminate the remaining poison of the aberrations.
Only ten years have passed since the closure.
About five years ago, Zhong Man passed by there with a folk collecting team. If the tour guide hadn't mentioned it, no trace of the so-called river course would have been found at all.
After knowing the background, watching the conversation between Long Qi and Lao Xiong will feel different, but also more confusing:
Raven said that she wanted to explore along the old river. No matter what the idea was, the first concept that came to mind was "distortion". That's right, along the way was "wilderness".
Is this live show really going to be so ruthless?
So now, if the show has not deviated from the main line - let's think so, what does this "overtime" on the way back represent?
When Zhong Man wondered if he was overthinking, Long Qi, who was having a "very happy conversation" with Lao Xiong, waved to the distance and made arrangements with increasing familiarity:
"Miss Ruiwen, I'm here for on-site inspection and research. My mouth is dry and my tongue is dry. Isn't it worth letting ink give me a close-up view?"
In the live broadcast room, he was madly "angry" about his bad behavior of using Raven as a cameraman, and "warned" him to continue to increase his efforts.
Close-up shots arrive as expected, but it's not just ink.
Raven came directly over. At this time, she also took off her helmet and carried it in her hand. She was dressed in a neat school uniform, short skirt and thin legs, which looked particularly out of place next to the smelly puddle with dust and flies flying around.
Long Qi still maintained a squatting posture, holding up the stone in his hand and showing it to her: "A witness to a century of history, not bad."
Raven seemed quite interested in this, so she moved forward a little further, reached out and picked up one, holding it on her fingertips to observe.
Long Qi looked up at her, but felt that this angle was inappropriate. He subconsciously moved back and almost stepped into the sewage:
"Hey, keep a little distance. It's only a small place, and I might fall down... I don't know how to swim!"
Ruiwen looked over, seemingly a little surprised.
Long Qi was puzzled: "What's wrong if you don't know how to swim?"
