Chapter 85: Getting Angry
Formation belongs to the category of metaphysics.
The fact that it has become one of the four well-known arts among the thousands of cultivation methods shows how extraordinary it is.
Ultimately, this is best left to the professionals.
After Director Wu reported it, someone naturally contacted the Taoist people who were good at formations.
However, the enthusiasm for destroying the four olds has just passed, and there are many scammers in this industry. Society is not so friendly to metaphysics. Most of the truly capable people hide in the mountains or live in seclusion. The Taoist masters are even more secluded in the mountains to practice hard. It is not easy to find people with real skills.
This matter will not produce any results in a short period of time.
Director Wu had no choice but to tell Yan Jiuru to be more careful to prevent the Japanese from continuing to attack. If there was no other choice, he could execute first and report later.
At the same time, I also told him that the college entrance examination results were out!
"Oh, which school? I have to hurry back to report, right?"
Director Wu choked.
When I assigned him the task, I did say that it would not delay him from getting the notice, and now it feels a bit embarrassing to delay it any further.
"You don't even ask how many points it is?"
Yan Jiuru chuckled, "As long as the examiner isn't partial and doesn't give me a score below 330, one of my three choices will definitely get in."
"You are quite confident."
No matter how much they scolded him, his capable subordinates still had a lot of pride.
"The public scores will be announced in a few days, but since you're a special candidate, we've already received our internal scores: 377!"
"Oh~ That's great! Where's Chen Yin?"
The two lives combined amounted to tens of thousands of years, but at this moment Yan Jiuru was just like an ordinary college entrance examination student. No matter how confident he was in his estimate, he was so happy and excited that he almost jumped up when he actually knew the score.
Fortunately, he didn't forget to ask about his wife's grades.
"Humph, your wife is better than you. She scored 389 points. She's the top scorer in science this year, and you're only third!"
The two of them were far ahead in the exam. If their writing styles were not rather concise and not in line with the current style of writing that is popular and advocacy-oriented, they would have almost received full marks.
"Oh, isn't that perfect? I'm handsome!"
"By the way, leader, please send someone over quickly. I have to go back and prepare for school." The third place winner in the imperial examination, Yan Jiuru, was a little impatient.
***
Lord Demon is from the world's number one demon sect and knows the importance of origin.
Let me put it this way, even if your father is an immortal king or a demon lord, your descendants still have to be arranged to practice in a large sect.
This isn't just a matter of knowledge and inheritance; it's about the sheer magnitude of the resources and strength behind an individual and a sect. No matter how great an individual's abilities or wealth, they can't match the multi-generational heritage and riches of a sect.
When you are out, the effect of who your father is and which sect you belong to will definitely be different.
Maybe no one knows who your father is, but almost everyone knows your sect, and you have countless senior brothers, sisters, uncles, and ancestors behind you...
The moment you announce your master's name, others will no longer be looking at you as an individual. If they want to touch you, they will have to consider your background and whether they can bear the consequences.
All the old hands understand this.
Those who go out and hide their identities and do not report the name of their sect are either being hunted for something, or they have done bad things and do not want others to know.
Then there is the young fool who is just starting out.
Yan Jiuru had figured it out long ago. The only things here that could be compared to a sect were the army and the school.
He did not join the army through normal channels, so now that he has the chance to pass the college entrance examination and go to university, he must seize the opportunity.
"Alright, alright, Yenching University, your admission letter has been received. Report on February 26th, 27th, and 28th. I'll make sure you can catch up."
Director Wu hesitated for a moment, then said, "If you think the situation is not right, try to preserve important resources while protecting yourself, and take action if necessary."
In fact, not only he, but also the top two leaders above him knew that these talented people could not only have the abilities reported. But even a cat will hold back a tiger, not to mention that it was someone's job. It was normal to have some reservations. As long as they did their best to complete the assigned tasks, that would be enough.
***
During this period, I communicated by phone several times and learned that someone was holding up something, saying that the Taoist priest's ritual was a restoration of feudal superstition or something.
Yan Jiuru was extremely depressed, and he knew Director Wu was in a difficult situation, so he had no choice but to say that he would wait for another week at most, and he would go back whether anyone came or not.
Of course, waiting around wasn't his style.
During the day, in addition to training, he also went out to sea with the army's supply fishing boat and caught a lot of seafood.
If you live by the mountain, you eat from the mountain; if you live by the sea, you eat from the sea.
He only takes things from the waters near the shipwreck, and anything from other waters is acceptable.
The ocean is so vast, there is no need to eat just one piece of it.
There are many local soldiers in the coastal defense force who are good at diving.
As long as he didn't use the talisman, his diving ability was only slightly better than that of other warriors. Plus, he said that he would be leaving soon after completing his mission, so it was no surprise that he was so diligent in fishing.
Who goes to the ocean and doesn't bring something back?!
In a place far away from the shipwreck area, he learned to catch a lot of big fish, as well as lobsters and crabs, oysters, sea urchins and sea cucumbers. At night, he would quietly go to the sea to observe the vicinity of the shipwreck and collect some personal property.
Although most people and property on the shipwreck were destroyed by the shock wave caused by the explosion, the shipwreck was so large that there must be things that were preserved away from the explosion point.
The food included large yellow croaker, small yellow croaker, hairtail, grouper, eel, shark, sea cucumber, sea urchin, oyster, large lobster, large prawn, large blue crab, red flower crab, large conch, and various delicious shellfish, clams, and sea vegetables. They were all processed with the help of the army's logistics. Those that could be dried were dried, and those that were difficult to dry were frozen with ice talismans and then transported away by train.
They have 107 special ports, so transporting seafood is no problem.
These seafood can be kept fresh for at least half a year under the ice seal and will be as fresh as when they were just caught. He does not eat them alone. Half of these seafood belongs to him, and the other half is considered as the fee he pays.
Fortunately, the temperature is not very hot now, and he used the ice talisman, otherwise the smell of rotten fish and shrimp can be imagined.
***
That day, he went to the county to call Chen Yin.
The two of them have been separated for a long time since he joined the army, and now Chen Yin is pregnant again, Yan Jiuru is very worried.
The army’s telephone resources were very precious, and it was inappropriate to make private calls, so he went to the county telephone office once a week to call Chen Yin’s unit.
I got a ride back from the army today and was more than two hours late for going into the sea.
I don’t know if it was just a coincidence, but he discovered something unusual when he went into the water late for a rare time!
There are three devils near the shipwreck!
He concentrated his consciousness and found that one of them was operating the formation, and the other two were moving things out from a gap hidden underneath!
All I could see in my spiritual consciousness was this huge golden guy!
***
Yan Jiuru felt something in his heart. It would be a lie to say that he was unhappy. After such a long time, there was finally some movement.
He had a water-avoiding talisman, so the water flow barely fluctuated when he moved, but he still activated an invisibility talisman just in case.
Sure enough, he sneaked to five meters to the side of the Japanese, but the other party still didn't notice.
It was almost impossible to talk underwater, and the other party also communicated through gestures. Yan Jiuru watched as the other party moved two or three times in succession. Each time, each person carried two special net bags containing twenty gold ingots.
These gold ingots are large and easy to count and transport, each weighing ten kilograms. That is to say, if forty tons of yellow metal were real, there would only be four thousand of these gold ingots.
After moving them like this, at least two hundred gold ingots were transported away in one night!
This won't do.
Yan Jiuru thought about it and realized that when he went into the sea, he did not see any boat on the nearby sea. In other words, if the other party had a pick-up ship, it would either come at the agreed time or not use a boat and transport directly underwater.
In either case, every piece of gold removed is our loss.
***
Yan Jiuru's spiritual sense swept across the sea surface, and indeed found nothing abnormal within the range of his spiritual sense. He estimated his spiritual sense ability and the talismans he brought with him, and made a plan in his mind.
He took advantage of the fact that the three opponents were nearby and suddenly shot out with his spiritual sense!
The three opponents only felt a pain in their heads and lost consciousness.
Yan Jiuru immediately activated three golden bells to hold the man down to prevent him from floating towards the sea.
Three steps to an ambush: set up an ambush, search the body, and destroy the body!
He searched the three men and found that even though they were in the sea, they were armed.
Yan Jiuru was also shocked when he found three waterproof grenades. He had never seen such things in the army.
Fortunately, he moved quickly enough and didn't give the other party a chance to provoke him.
Otherwise, the consequences are really uncertain.
Yan Jiuru had no rope to tie himself up, so he had to search the soul on the spot.
He learned Japanese and this time understood the other party's message very well.
Based on the information, he quickly found hundreds of gold ingots that the other party had transported over on a nearby small reef island.
According to the agreement, the other party will have an electric speedboat to pick us up at 1:45 am.
"Pfft, it's electric!" No wonder there was no sound.
After the search, of course he couldn't destroy the bodies. He had to find support quickly, otherwise it would be troublesome if the Japanese reinforcements came and found something unusual.
After all, they have water bombs, mines, and even torpedoes. If they really use a big weapon, they won't be able to withstand it.
***
Yan Jiuru went back into the sea to sort out the enemy's concealment formation, and then dragged the three people back to the army.
He didn't care that it was late at night or early in the morning, and immediately borrowed a military phone to call Director Wu's home.
"What? Caught?"
"Okay...really?"
"Ahem, this side...hasn't been coordinated yet..."
Director Wu's words made Yan Jiuru so angry that he could no longer suppress his anger and yelled into the phone:
"Bullshit! It's been so long and they still haven't coordinated it?
I say, Old Wu, if you don’t have the courage, just quit and everyone else should quit.
Is the gun in your hand a stick for wiping your butt?
Or will the guns only be pointed at those old generals and professors?
Oh my god!
Since you're not so enthusiastic, you probably don't want it anymore? Then I don't care.
You can come anytime you want, and if the gold disappears, don't ask me a word.
I just don’t know!
What I say definitely counts!
From now on, I will never see this gold again!
Old Wu, don’t take yourself too seriously. I’m telling you now, I’ve never seen any gold!
. . . . . . . ”
Director Wu looked at the beeping phone with a gloomy face, and was furious.
He was very sure and certain that Yan Jiuru was a man of his words.
If someone doesn't take over quickly, the gold will definitely disappear.
***
After venting his anger, Yan Jiuru splashed two handfuls of cold water on his face and quickly made up his mind.
He went to sea again at night.
He returned exhausted at dawn.
At the same time, he brought back a speedboat that was almost out of power.
Three days later, Director Wu hurried over with three Taoists and two translators.
They went into the sea to break the enemy's formation while interrogating the prisoners.
This time we summarized the experience from last time and the translation we brought was more professional. The information we reviewed was that the Japanese people responsible for smuggling gold were frequently replaced to prevent being caught and interrogated.
Therefore, this group of people only know how much they have moved away in the past few days, and they didn’t know how much they had moved away before.
There were also some problems in breaking the formation.
Taoism is no longer as it used to be, or perhaps this world has long since lost its spiritual energy, and the entire Taoist sect has never prospered.
The Taoist priests had hardly ever performed magic under the sea and were not very used to it. They had no clue after three days. It was only Yan Jiuru who couldn't stand it anymore and reminded them twice. Finally, they broke the formation on the fourth day.
This matter should not be made public. Whether it is Japan or us, we do this quietly.
Even if the other party noticed something unusual about the formation, they would not dare to take any action.
In this way, after more than half a month of continuous moving, a part of Huang Cancan was moved out from the place covered by the formation.
Of course, these are all top secrets, and everyone involved has received "hush money".
As the one with the greatest contribution, Yan Jiuru asked for two detached garden houses in Yancheng and Shanghai without any hesitation!
Who should we leave it to? For those who are just sitting there doing nothing?
Director Wu was very clear-headed. He never asked Yan Jiuru a single word about the gold from beginning to end. He knew that asking would be useless and would only hurt their small relationship.
There is no way to know how much gold was secretly taken away by the Japanese from the sunken ship, and what little was left was picked up.
What he didn't dare tell Yan Jiuru was that, as the country was so short of resources, it should be very anxious to know about this piece of gold. In fact, it was just the opposite. There were all kinds of obstructions, which was very problematic.
They did follow the clues and catch a few deeply buried "bugs".
Of course, these are all buried in top-secret archives and may never be mentioned.
