Hearing this decisive answer, Chen Ziyan couldn't help but smile knowingly. He knew that Wu Laogou would have this reaction.
Even though this guy always smiles and looks kind-hearted, if you have a deeper understanding of the past of Mr. Gou, you will know that he has never been a kind person in his heart.
Furthermore, even those who are truly compassionate would not be able to do what they do.
Didn’t the young third master of the Wu family, who was given the title of ‘innocent’ by all parties when he debuted in the future, later transform into the evil emperor with ‘unpredictable thoughts and reckless actions’?
If Wu Xie had maintained his youthful personality, he would not be able to destroy the core base of the Wang family even if he was given another two hundred years.
Just when Chen Ziyan was thinking, Wu Laogou, who had been looking at his nephew since just now, suddenly asked:
"Little friend, do you think this nephew can be used again?"
Chen Ziyan knew that Wu Laogou was referring to the path the previous litter of nephews took out of the ground.
According to the information they obtained, there is no doubt that the nephew left from here, but he obviously did not leave from the elevator where they came down, so the answer can be found after a little troubleshooting.
The entire nest of nephews who had been killed probably dug holes from the ground.
This was not mentioned before because the body shape of the nephew was there, and the tunnel they dug was not suitable for humans, and there was no way to repair it in a short time, so even if the two of them thought about this, they were still worried.
This discovery was tacitly put aside.
But now the situation is different. Because they plan to jointly develop with the administration, Chen Ziyan and the others can be bolder in their actions, so this ready-made channel must be used.
"I don't know what you are thinking, Fifth Master. Are you going to be honest and honest, or do you know that heaven and earth know?" After these thoughts flashed through Chen Ziyan's mind, he looked at Wu Laogou and asked.
Utilization is utilization, but how to utilize it is up for debate.
However, Chen Ziyan secretly made up his mind that if Wu Laogou chose to conceal it, he would find an opportunity to destroy this passage.
Although the existence of such a channel is a good thing for them, everything has two sides. If sufficient defense cannot be ensured, the existence of this channel will do more harm than good.
Once someone takes advantage of it, it will definitely cause big trouble.
It's not that Chen Ziyan is reluctant to place people here, but his current strength is limited and he simply doesn't have the ability to divide his troops into multiple locations. After all, there are only a few people he trusts, and those people he recruits cannot make him feel at ease here.
Guarding one entrance and exit is already too much, let alone one more.
And if Wu Laogou and his family were left alone to guard, Chen Ziyan would really feel uneasy. He was well aware of the infiltration capabilities of the Wang family and other secret forces, but he did not think that the Wu family, which was about to be infiltrated into a sieve, could do the job.
So if Wu Laogou doesn't plan to involve the administration, then he might as well just take Nephew out of this passage and destroy it. Although this will give them one less person to rely on, it can effectively prevent foreign enemies from invading.
For Chen Ziyan at this stage, sustainable and stable development is the most important thing.
Although Wu Laogou didn't know what Chen Ziyan was thinking, he always acted cautiously and knew that his handicap might not be reliable, so after pondering for a moment, he said with a smile:
"Since we have planned to cooperate, we must be sincere and candid."
Hearing this, Chen Ziyan nodded slightly: "Then we will find a way to find this passage first, and then we will discuss how to deal with it."
"It shouldn't be hard to find, right?" Wu Laogou raised his doubts.
Although he didn’t know much about Nephew, he probably was good at digging holes. He didn’t think that after this litter of Nephews was freed, they would honestly follow their wishes and search for the place where the previous litter of Nephews left.
channel.
And if they were to look for it themselves, in such a vast space, it would be no less difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
"Indeed." Chen Ziyan nodded in agreement, and then said his plan: "Fifth Master, this is my plan. While releasing these little things, I will put a little pressure on them. I believe that in that case, these little things will
Things definitely don’t have the heart to dig holes by themselves.”
Chen Ziyan's plan is very simple, which is to let his puppets and Wu Laogou's dogs form a hunting and persecution situation against Nephew, forcing them to find the escape route left by the previous litter of Nephew.
"Of course, I'll let my two guys take the lead later, and Fifth Master, your dog will be by your side to help with the momentum." After finishing speaking, Chen Ziyan did not forget to add.
His puppet armor is more than enough to deal with Nephew, but it is unable to limit Nephew's range of activities. In this regard, he needs the help of Wu Laogou's dogs.
And when he was confident, Chen Ziyan didn't mind expressing his sincerity.
However, despite the guarantee, Chen Ziyan also knew that this kind of thing could not be foolproof, so he waited patiently for Wu Laogou's reply.
"My little friend, this arrangement is very good." Wu Laogou didn't hesitate too much and quickly gave a reply.
Chen Ziyan had already said this, so he naturally had to show that he was Chen Ziyan's cooperative ally, not the other party's vassal. How could he not contribute at all?
"By the way, Fifth Master, when I go back later, I plan to bring another litter of nephews up." After seeing Wu Laogou nod, Chen Ziyan said no more and directly changed the topic to other aspects. p>
This was the thought that came up when he decided to release his nephew, because they had to give an excuse after they returned. Compared with saying that there was nothing down here, Chen Ziyan felt that it would be better to use his nephew as a cover.<
/p>
Unlike the black-haired snake, which has unique value, Nephew is completely harmful and useless in the eyes of people who don't know the inside story. If they are told that there are many Nephews lurking down here, it will not only pave the way for their exploration.
The patch can also be a bargaining chip for them to take charge of this place.
"Bringing nephew Li to the nest...isn't it a bit risky?" Wu Laogou quickly figured out the key, but he had some doubts.
Because in his opinion, this not only has benefits, but also has hidden dangers.
First of all, the appearance of Nephew is equivalent to telling others that there is a space with a complete ecosystem below.
Being able to provide for the survival of a biological group for thousands of years, what this means is self-evident in the eyes of knowledgeable people.
Secondly, the nephew itself is not worthless. The mere fact that this creature is only recorded in ancient books is enough to attract the attention of many scholars in related fields.
Just like what is said in that notebook, if those scholars who specialize in this field know that there is a magnificent underground world deep in the earth, they will definitely go crazy about it.
Ever since he opened the Wu family's stall, Wu Laogou has become more and more accustomed to making plans before he takes action. This time he acted like a fool, and if he takes risks like this again, he will feel a little uneasy.
"Fifth Master, our situation is not stable. It is good to be comprehensive, but it is not suitable for us." Chen Ziyan sighed lightly.
He doesn't know that there are risks in doing so, but in his opinion, this is just an excuse, just to pave the way for seizing this place, and the risks are nothing compared to the benefits.
He also wanted to be safe and make a smooth transition, but the conditions did not allow it at all.
What's more, Chen Ziyan is not completely unsure about this. With the precedent from Niuxin Mountain, he has a good idea of how the Administration will treat this kind of underground space, and he knows that the other party will not go to war over it.
Moreover, Chen Ziyan seriously doubted whether the administration, which has been dealing with ancient creatures for many years, had known about the existence of the underground world for a long time.
But there is no need to tell Wu Laogou about these things. It is fine for him to know some things himself, but it is taboo to spread them casually.
"That's right, time waits for no one." Wu Laogou sighed with emotion in a low voice.
After sighing, Wu Laogou didn't say much, and Chen Ziyan didn't ask any more questions, because sometimes silence is also a kind of answer.
The slightly embarrassing ending made the rest of the journey fall into silence. Chen Ziyan and Wu Laogou were both thinking about their own concerns, and no one was interested in continuing the conversation.
The process of immersing yourself in the journey was boring, but time passed slowly when I was thinking. When Chen Ziyan came back from his thoughts, the group of them had already arrived at the cliff full of stone carvings of his nephew.<
/p>
After the team stopped, Chen Ziyan glanced at Wu Laogou. When he saw the other party nodded slightly, he threw his nephew who had woken up in his hand out.
While throwing nephew Li out, Chen Ziyan untied the ropes from these little things.
These nephews were tied up tightly in Chen Ziyan's hands, and they couldn't bear it for a long time. The moment they landed, they fled towards the darkness in the distance.
At the moment when nephew Li escaped, Wushuanggui and Huahu, who had already received orders from Chen Ziyan, also took steps to follow.
Seeing this, Wu Laogou also gave orders to the dogs around him, and the dogs followed closely behind him under the leadership of the dog king.
After the figures of the puppet armor and the dogs disappeared from the end of the field of vision, Chen Ziyan turned his attention to the stone sculpture of his nephew next to him.
Chen Ziyan is not worried about whether the puppet armor can complete the task. Although nephew Li is very flexible in his movements, it is impossible to get rid of his puppet armor, so he just needs to wait patiently.
On the other hand, Wu Laogou's eyes flashed with worry. Although he looked calm, he didn't have much confidence in this matter in his heart. However, after seeing Chen Ziyan's performance, he gained a little more confidence.
Although they have known each other for a short time, he has a preliminary understanding of Chen Ziyan and knows that he is not someone who likes to place satellites randomly. His current performance undoubtedly shows that he knows this well.
Since the people sent to lead the charge are not worried, there is no need for him to think about it.
Wu Laogou, who wanted to understand this, quickly changed his mind and began to wonder whether the psychedelic drugs he brought with him could temporarily enhance the effect.
Next, it's time for his psychedelic drug to come on stage. If the drug is effective, they will be much more relaxed.
While Wu Laogou was thinking hard, Chen Ziyan had already broken another stone sculpture with deft hands and feet, and pulled out a nest of sleeping nephews from it.
The appearance of this nest of nephews can be regarded as validating their guess. As expected, there is a nest of nephews hidden in each stone carving here.
After looking at the nephew in his hand for a few times, Chen Ziyan raised his head and greeted Wu Laogou: "Fifth Master, it's time for us to leave."
After Wu Laogou was pulled out of his thoughts by Chen Ziyan's voice, he gently stroked the soft hair on the head of the Xiugou in his arms, smiled and nodded: "Okay."
After all, he was not a professional pharmacist. In such a short period of time, he could not think of a way to temporarily enhance the effect of psychedelic drugs.
However, this thinking was not fruitless, because after sorting out the clues, Wu Laogou discovered that the effect of psychedelic drugs was slightly weaker, but it did not affect their plan.
Because they will later involve other forces in the administration, they can be a little more relaxed in doing things. Even if the concealment is not thorough enough, they can make amends afterwards.
"Master Chen! Fifth Master!"
When Chen Ziyan and Wu Laogou returned to the entrance, they were immediately discovered by Li Wu who was guarding there.
When the two of them got closer, Li Wu, who saw them alone, had a strange look in his eyes, but it didn't show on his face. Instead, he asked with concern: "Are you two okay?"
The moment he discovered that Chen Ziyan's two men and Wu Laogou's pack of dogs hadn't followed him back, Li Wu would be lying if he said he wasn't happy.
After all, it would not be a bad thing for him if the two of them suffered heavy losses down there, so that the forces of the three parties would reach a balance, instead of him being suppressed unilaterally.
"It's okay." Chen Ziyan smiled and waved his hand.
He knew what Li Wu was thinking without even guessing, but he had no interest in explaining to the other party.
When he decided to take this place as his own, Li Wu, the actual person in charge, was already in the opposite camp. It was a good thing to be able to use this to confuse the other party at this time. How could he possibly demolish himself?
