300. Camp Assembly
After receiving Lu Ningxiang's call, Chen Youcai knew that the situation was serious.
After talking to my family in a hurry, I bought a plane ticket for the day and flew directly from Nanling City to the imperial capital, Longcheng.
"Time is running out, I will explain to you on the way, Mr. Liu is still waiting for us at the camp."
At the gate of the Imperial Capital International Airport, Lu Ningxiang personally drove a car to pick it up. Chen Youcai sat on the co-pilot with a backpack, and the car started and headed towards the southern suburbs of the Imperial Capital.
"Are those people coming back?"
Chen Youcai looked solemn, staring at Lu Ningxiang's side face, and asked tentatively.
"There are saints in the world of evil punishment, and they will definitely not be willing to hide overseas. It is almost inevitable that they will return to China."
While concentrating on driving, Lu Ningxiang casually explained to Chen Youcai: "In order to resist the resurgence of the evil way of punishment, Mr. Liu and the others decided to open the holy tomb, and from among all the envoys of the way of rewarding merit, select one who can inherit the first generation of saints." talent."
"If there is a chance, among you and me, there will be someone who will directly inherit the mantle of the ancestor and become a saint directly!"
Lu Ningxiang said the last four words very solemnly, and Chen Youcai's eyes widened when he heard it, and he couldn't believe his ears.
Dare to be kind and appreciative here, it's not because you are helpless, but because you are holding back your big move!
In this situation, it is like letting many envoys who are good at rewarding Taoism go to "grab the prize".
If you are lucky enough to win a big prize, you will soar into the sky and reach the pinnacle of your life in an instant.
Thinking of this, Chen Youcai couldn't help asking in confusion: "It seems that not all of the virtuous messengers are good people. I... have met a man named Cao Kun before, and his temperament has become extremely bad."
"Well, your worry is not unreasonable. If it weren't for fighting against the evil saint, Mr. Liu and the others would not risk everything and give it a go."
Lu Ningxiang stopped the car and waited for the traffic light ahead, she turned her head and explained to Chen Youcai: "The opportunity to become a saint lies in the holy tomb, and if you want to take the last step, you must pass the test left by the saint. "
"To put it simply, although all the meritorious envoys of the Dao of Kindness are involved this time, as long as there is a bad value in the merit book, they will be excluded immediately."
Chen Youcai nodded silently, and as the car continued to start, he opened his mouth and said, "But, after a person possesses great power, who can guarantee that his nature will not change?"
"...That's not something you and I can worry about. Let Mr. Liu and the others solve this problem."
Lu Ningxiang smiled helplessly, turned the car around, and drove from the bustling street to a road leading to the suburbs.
The people on both sides gradually thinned out, and in the end, the scenery outside the window was already barren. According to Chen Youcai's estimate, it should be far away from the downtown area.
Finally, about two hours later, the car came to a valley entrance and stopped in front of a high-voltage grid wall.
"Get out of the car, don't look around, the secret sentry here is equipped with snipers, and has the privilege to kill intruders at any time."
Chen Youcai nodded solemnly, and followed Lu Ningxiang towards the high-voltage power grid.
Just about ten meters away from the barbed wire fence, Lu Ningxiang stopped, took out a purple leather certificate, opened it, and shook it at the surveillance camera on the top of the barbed wire fence.
"Authentication passed, welcome back, Second Lieutenant Lu."
A cold man's voice came from the loudspeaker at the other end of the barbed wire. Lu Ningxiang pulled Chen Youcai's wrist and said loudly, "He is the person Mr. Liu wants to see."
"Outsiders, please go through the inspection channel, you must search first."
After the cold male voice finished speaking, there was only a buzzing and trembling sound in the weeds inside the barbed wire, as if a ferocious beast was hiding in it.
Immediately afterwards, a strong wind swept from the sky overhead, blowing the vegetation down on the ground and rolling up green waves.
Chen Youcai squinted and saw a military helicopter with a dark green shell flying over from the barbed wire fence.
After boarding the plane, Chen Youcai sat down next to Lu Ningxiang, honestly not daring to look around, and just flew all the way to the belly of the valley.
The scenic spots under the feet shrank and became smaller in the field of vision. Buildings and figures gradually appeared in the wilderness area, and other helicopters could be seen buzzing in the sky from time to time.
"Here we are, come down."
After a while, the helicopter hovered over a simple helipad on the edge of the cliff.
Lu Ningxiang led Chen Youcai to jump out of the cabin. A few people in protective clothing were waiting by the side early on. Two women began to check Lu Ningxiang's body, while Chen Youcai was led aside and carefully checked by two male investigators.
"The inspection passed, everything is safe."
Several inspectors put away the equipment, took the recorder and left. Chen Youcai secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and smiled at Lu Ningxiang.
"Do you think this place is like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den?"
Lu Ningxiang led Chen Youcai to the depths of the camp, and she met many people saluting along the way, and she smiled and nodded in response.
"This is the base camp of the Dao of Shanshang. It is the foundation for guarding the gate of the Daxia Kingdom from the invasion of foreign superpowers. The security level is the highest."
Lu Ningxiang smiled and said: "Of course, what we are guarding against is usually not ordinary people."
"Well, I understand."
Chen Youcai nodded, followed her through the training area, and came to a gray tube building. Lu Ningxiang took out her ID and verified it on the door lock. The two stepped into the elevator, but they headed for the tenth floor underground.
"Elder Liu is waiting for us below, go and meet him first, most of the other virtuous envoys have already arrived."
The elevator buzzed and descended vertically. Chen Youcai was a little nervous. When he raised his eyes, he saw Lu Ningxiang smiling gently, signaling him not to worry too much.
With a sound of ding dong, the elevator stopped running steadily, and the elevator door opened, revealing a wide underground hall.
The hall was densely packed with giant screens, and data surged through the screen like a torrent. Chen Youcai only glanced at it for a second, then his expression changed slightly, and shock appeared in his eyes.
Those data turned out to be the merit book data of various merit messengers, and even the merit tasks assigned to someone, as well as the exchange needs in the merit store!
"These data are all sent back by the brainwaves of the virtuous messengers. This technology combines modern science and some magic techniques. I can't explain it in detail for a while."
Seeing that Chen Youcai was obsessed with watching, Lu Ningxiang smiled and said: "When you are free later, you should come and find out by yourself."
"The second batch of merit envoys, please go to meeting room No. [-] to gather immediately... The second batch of merit envoys, please go to meeting room No. [-] to gather immediately!"
A cold order came from the loudspeaker above the hall. Lu Ningxiang touched Chen Youcai, who was a little absent-minded, and motioned him to follow.
At this moment, men and women in different clothes are constantly coming out of several entrances of the hall. These people include glamorous rich businessmen, and ordinary civilians like Chen Youcai who are all dressed up.
But it can be seen that these guys, like Chen Youcai, have stepped into the Shanshang Dao camp for the first time, and they are looking around curiously, amazed.
Chen Youcai and Lu Ningxiang followed the flow of people and poured into a Nuoda conference room on the right side of the hall. Due to too many people, the seats in the front row were quickly occupied, and the latecomers could only stand in the corner.
And at the top of the conference room, the old Liu Tou, who was dressed in unruly attire, now also put on a formal suit for the first time.
He stood in front of the projector screen with his hands behind his back, and coughed dryly towards the crowd.
"Now that you're all here, I'll start talking about the rules in the Holy Tomb."
