Chapter 258 260 Arrival at Taijing
When in Xiangshan Town, Rong Xianxian exchanged a lot of weapons in front of Xiangfang, including a tank. Cui Lie was very surprised and asked Rong Xianxian if she could control other people's minds.
In fact, Cui Lie was just expressing a sense of surprise and disbelief, but Rong Xianxian was inspired by this. She tried to use the effects of drugs and some commonly used methods in hypnosis, using the soul-calming bell as a medium and relying on her own powerful mental power to secretly implant some situational cues into the target's mind, which would be triggered under certain specific conditions.
This method is somewhat despicable and cannot be brought to light. Rong Xianxian will never mention it to anyone. Compared with the direct mental attacks that Rong Xianxian has been using before, this method is more covert and not easy to be discovered.
I don’t know what the situation is on Lan Shuang’s side, but the results of this experiment on Cao Xing have achieved the goals that Rong Xianxian expected.
In the narrow underground space, the two sides, who originally thought they were going to meet smoothly, were confronted by their companions with swords drawn at the moment of shaking hands or hugging, and the two sides were plunged into a melee, with both sides suffering losses.
"Sister Rong, what should we do with this person?" Jiang Jie asked, pointing at the person they brought back.
"Is it still worth interrogating?" Rong Xianxian asked Cui Lie. If it has no value, why bring it back?
"Well, let me see if I can pry out some useful information." When Cui Lie heard Rong Xianxian ask this, he knew what Rong Xianxian meant.
Originally, he heard this man say that he could make explosives and mechanical devices, and wondered whether Rong Xianxian would take him in. However, it seemed that Rong Xianxian had no intention of doing so.
Cui Lie bent down and prepared to carry the man away, "Wait, has this person been searched before?" Rong Xianxian asked, pointing at the person on the ground.
"We've searched everyone, including other people. All the things are here." Cui Lie pointed to an irregular cloth bag next to him.
Rong Xianxian gave Cui Lie a satisfied look and prepared to check the spoils they had obtained.
"Sister, don't kill me, I didn't do anything bad. I was forced to be a robber because they did. Please let me stay. I can make explosives for you and set up mechanical devices for you. I'm very useful to you. Please don't..." The prisoner who had been silent all the time seemed to sense something was wrong and suddenly shouted at Rong Xianxian.
"Bang" Cui Lie saw Rong Xianxian frowning, and chopped the man's neck with a knife, and the man's body immediately went limp.
Cui Lie called Wang Qirui and dragged the prisoner out.
"Sister Rong, if he really knows how to make explosives and mechanical devices, it would be quite useful. Why don't you let him show it?" Xia Kai asked hesitantly. Compared with the man's ability just now, he seemed to be unable to help at all. Instead, he could only hold Sister Rong back.
"The most important thing to become our teammate is not ability but character. Birds of a feather flock together. This man is in the same group with the robbers, which shows that he has a bad character. He was captured after a defeat and wanted to join us to save his life. Even if he is very capable, I would not dare to accept him." Rong Xianxian said patiently. It is not difficult to make explosives. Many science students can do it. The main thing is that the materials are hard to find. This man must have been lucky and happened to find a lot of raw materials for making explosives, so he made so many explosives. Moreover, in the future, as the level of cultivators, mutant beasts and monsters increases, the lethality that explosives can cause will be very limited.
She opened the bag containing the spoils, which contained a pile of miscellaneous weapons, several guns, and several boxes of bullets. Rong Xianxian was not interested in any of these. She rummaged underneath and found two booklets. One was a common skill book about body movements, and the other was a book called "Basic Mechanics". Needless to say, this book "Basic Mechanics" must have been found from the person who could make mechanical devices just now.
Rong Xianxian couldn't help but feel very happy holding the book "Basic Mechanics". She had previously obtained a book "Must-know Basic Techniques of Equipment Refining" and this time she also obtained the book "Basic Mechanics". She had gained a lot today.
"Ajie, come here, study this book first. If anyone is interested, everyone can learn from it." Rong Xianxian handed "Basic Mechanics" to Jiang Jie, and then said to everyone.
Since the team was founded, Jiang Jie has been the one who is responsible for making mechanisms and setting traps. Jiang Jie's family used to be hunters, and making mechanisms and traps is a family skill. In addition, Jiang Jie himself has some talent in this area, so the traps he makes are getting more and more powerful.
Jiang Jie was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling while holding the book. He had seen the powerful mechanism that allowed Cao Xing to escape before and was very envious. Now that he had the book in his hands, maybe he could make a mechanism like that soon.
The more Jiang Jie thought about it, the more beautiful it became. He was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling while holding the book.
When Cui Lie and Wang Qirui came back, Rong Xianxian and others were preparing dinner. Seeing Cui Lie coming back, Rong Xianxian didn't ask anything. Dinner was ready, so they started eating.
After dinner, Rong Xianxian used the excuse of inspection to clear out all the stock in the paper mill warehouse. The paper mill warehouse was very large, and it was filled with mountains of various kinds of paper, thick, thin, white, yellow, big, and small.
The night passed peacefully, and early the next morning, Rong Xianxian and others had breakfast and started a new journey.
At around four or five in the afternoon, Rong Xianxian and his party arrived at the Taijing Safety Zone. Rong Xianxian looked at the towering walls of the Taijing Safety Zone. It was majestic and magnificent, and one look at it made people feel very safe.
Outside the city wall, more than a dozen large excavators are working. If you look down from a high altitude, you can find that these excavators are not digging randomly, but are working according to the routes planned on the ground.
"What are they doing?" Wang Qirui asked in confusion as he watched the good ground being dug into pieces.
"Dig large-scale defensive fortifications to prevent monsters from attacking the city." Rong Xianxian carefully observed the orderly workers on the construction site. The mental state of the people here was much better than that of the people in the various safe zones she had passed through before. They did not show any signs of confusion, helplessness or panic. Instead, they looked very calm and composed.
In her previous life, when she passed by the Taijing Safety Zone, Rong Xianxian once wanted to stay in this safety zone and not move forward.
There are two entrances at the city gate. The entrance on the left requires a certificate to enter the city. Rong Xianxian and others don’t know what certificate it is. The entrance on the right is the registration office for outsiders. Rong Xianxian and others consciously lined up to register at the registration office for outsiders.
