The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 40: Light of the Dark Kingdom (Part 1)
Different from Aston Martin, who was sprinting forward on the a1 highway, Gu Tie’s vehicle did not advance one minute in the distance. "Boom, rumbling..." The vertical shield machine used diamond blades to crush the soil. And rocks, swallowing mud frantically, roaring toward the center of the earth like a giant beast sinking into the abyss. The small nuclear reactor-driven steam turbine unit provides an astonishing 5,000 shaft end horsepower for the tunneling system. The noise is roaring, and the blades become red and hot due to friction. This terrifying machine digs a tunnel with a force of destruction, and uses billowing mud. The waves flooded the tunnel.
Riding in this kind of transportation is not a pleasant experience. Compared with the exquisite hand-stitched calfskin interior of the Aston Martin dbk sports car, the b&o twenty-four-speaker audio system and four-zone automatic air-conditioning, in the shield machine The only thing that can be called a comfort device is a sizzling loudspeaker. Gu Tie kept moving his hips in the smooth plastic seat, and the whole shield machine resonated wildly. People sitting on the seat were jumping like bouncing beans in an iron pot. Gu Tie felt that his underwear was almost destroyed. It was worn out, and the **** egg became red and swollen. He sullenly leaned into Azwei's ear and murmured: "I said my dear Wei, don't you think this is too guilty? How about we look for a cotton pad or not? Even a toilet gasket will do. "
"What did you say?" Rainforest Flower glanced at him, her cold gray-blue eyes did not fall on the Chinese face at all, "It's too noisy here, I can’t hear you. Don’t bother me, I think It's not right, there are enemies nearby..."
"Nearby?" Gu Tie yelled, pointing his fingers to the top of his head and then to the feet. The ceiling and the floor each have an observation window covered by transparent tempered glass. The window below is a **** of raging heat and sparks. You can see the knife wheel cutting the hard rock to produce a scythe-like dazzling fire line, and you can also see the super smashing device. The hard cast iron grinding ball reciprocates vertically and horizontally like a red fire ball, grinding small pieces of rock and mud into powder. The blue sky and white clouds are also invisible from the overhead window. The mud waves sprayed by the hoisting system rise up 20 meters in the air, turning into a torrent of mud and rolling down, and the thick, dark, dirty mud rainstorms are overwhelming, which is heart-warming. Despair. "Where is it nearby, Azwei? Don't be nervous anymore! It will get old quickly!" Gu Tie yelled in Azwei's ear.
The flower of the rainforest no longer pays attention to the noisy man, with long silver hair floating in the air, dancing around like Medusa's group of snakes. Gu Tie ate a closed door, and turned his head to Xiao Li Ping surprisedly and said: "How long will it take? Where are we? Even if the subway has to report for a station, in case I have to get off at China World Trade Center and accidentally let you take it there. What can we do if we go to the apple orchard?...More importantly, what do we do when we arrive at the next basement? Sitting in the basement, eating compressed biscuits, drinking air-conditioning condensate, looking at outdated magazines, listening to your "Marxist-Leninism" Are you waiting for the end of the China's lecture series?"
"Inaudible." Xiao Liping made a gesture to indicate that the noise was too loud, and he simply ignored Gu Tie's question. Gu Tie snorted, grabbed the keyboard on the console and cracked it. This shield machine uses the original 64-bit core processor bus system. All six operating positions can log in to the graphical interface to control the operation of the machine. Although Tie is an all-knower in the quantum network era, he actually played a piece of traditional computer before the popularization of the "Genesis" network. He did nothing to call up the system console and enter the hidden command interface. It took a minute to get this set. System administrator authority for unix-based operating software. However, he did not engage in any pranks, but a huge dialog box popped up on Xiao Liping’s screen to strictly cover the graphical interface, and wrote five characters: "I am very dissatisfied."
"Okay, I understand." Secretary Xiao sighed and turned the chair around, "Give me some time, I have to complete a turning point. If the direction is not controlled well, the knife wheel will be damaged by the rock. If it gets stuck in the ground The middle is all over, no one will come to rescue, we will die alone in the middle of the earth, rusted and decayed, and over the years become a pile of strange fossils of indistinct shapes."
"Speaking of being so lyrical and sick! Hurry up and turn your turn, I'm so annoyed!" Gu Tie roared in the deafening noise.
Xiao Li Ping input a series of commands to the console, and then press the red button on the joystick, "Crunch..." The knife wheel in front of the shield machine moved a tiny angle on the gyro axis, The direction of the machine's digging immediately changed, everything in the carriage began to vibrate violently, and Gu Tie's center of gravity was obviously tilted. Fortunately, he was firmly trapped in the chair by the four-point safety belt. The shell of the shield machine creaked and deformed, and the output power meter entered the red zone within a short time, indicating that the machine was under heavy pressure. As Xiao Liping’s fingers pushed the joystick, the rotation speed of the cutter wheel gradually increased. The machine turned a sharp bend of seventy degrees and turned into a horizontal tunnel, the floor turned into a wall, and the three people were lifted by safety belts, their feet pointed in the direction of the cabin door.
At this moment, Azwei suddenly opened her eyes: "There is indeed an enemy!" With a flick of her finger, she unfastened the seat belt buckle, leaped dexterously to the bulkhead, squatted down and grabbed the cabin with both hands. Rotating handle of the door. "No way!" Gu Tie yelled, hurriedly released the seat belt and jumped to the woman's side, "What are you doing, big sister! There is nothing outside here, there is only a large muddy mud, which will be here as soon as you open the door. Filled with mud, we are all over!"
Xiao Liping said: "According to the program setting, the hatch cannot be opened during the operation of the shield machine. But this woman may really feel something..."
Gu Tie clung to Aqiwei’s waist so that she could not reach the hatch, "Nonsense! Or else can you be like this? Hurry up and find a way to detect it, night vision, thermal imaging, radar, whatever. If there is an enemy, find out and kill it!"
"Humph." Secretary Xiao was exasperated. "Look where we are? Under the ground, those investigative methods you mentioned are useful! The only things that can work are metal detectors and solids. Sonar, the former can only judge whether there are metal products nearby, and the latter can only be used in deep solidified soil. Do you think of a way to come out?"
Gu Tie scolded: "I thought it was a really awesome machine. Who knew it would do nothing but drill holes! The black olive branch didn't give away any gifts. Can artillery blast off a socialist surreal weapon run by a street?"
Xiao Liping turned his right hand, and the assault pistol appeared in his hand: "Be realistic, rely on yourself, Comrade Gu Tie. Even if the opponent is the son of god, tracking under such harsh conditions will definitely consume a lot of money, and it may not be impossible to fight." /
"In movies, characters like you usually hang up after saying this, man." Gu Tie pouted.
Since entering the shield machine, the poorly contacted speaker has been playing saxophone. Xiao Liping said that it was the default background music for work, and the huge noise produced by the shield machine would make people dizzy. Sleeping and listening to music help the operator to concentrate. At this moment, the music suddenly stopped for a beat. This is not the noise discharge caused by the virtual connection of the speaker power cord, but the performance of the sound signal being disturbed in the system. Gu Tie is a very sensitive guy with his own metronome. The reason he hates jazz and loves rock music is that the former has a loose rhythm that makes people painful, while the latter always maintains a steady drumbeat even if he screams, growls, and smashes the guitar. . This tiny pause in the ears immediately activated the dangerous nerves in the Chinese body. Every hair on his body felt a strange electric charge in the air. "Cover your ears!" In the silver snake hair of Aqiwei just about When he reacted, he hugged the rainforest flower into his arms in a bear hug, and pressed the woman's ears tightly with his thick arms.
Xiao Liping did not hesitate, he completely believed in Gu Tie's judgment. Loosen the seat belt with a click, Xiao Liping fell straight to the bulkhead, took off his coat in the air and covered his face. "Pump!" He fell onto Gu Tie, his coat wrapped the heads of three people in it.
"Zi..." All the surfaces in the cabin produced weak vibrations almost at the same time. "Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping Ping! The drinks in the cans exploded one after another, and the plastic seat shook violently, and began to break into pieces.
The lights dimmed because the lamp tube burst at the same time. However, the emergency explosion-proof lamp provided limited lighting. After this invisible wind blew, Xiao Liping opened his coat, stared at Gu Tie and Aqiwei in a daze, and pointed to their faces and said, "Bleeding, you guys." /
"Damn, Old Xiao bleeds from your seven orifices!" Gu Tie exclaimed.
"What did you say?" Aqiwei said.
"What did you say?" Gu Tie turned his head and said, startled again: "You also bleed! Where did you get hurt? Wipe it quickly..."
"What are you talking about?" Seeing the two people in front of him wipe each other's nostrils, corners of their mouths, and the blood from their ears, their lips moved without making a sound, Xiao Liping immediately realized that he had lost his hearing. "It's an ultrasonic weapon!" He grabbed Gu Tie's arm and said word by word with his mouth wide open, "The enemy is nearby! Most likely in the safe space at the tail of the shield machine! The machine was changed to horizontal tunneling to relieve his pressure. , Must turn again immediately!"
Gu Tie stared at his partner’s lips, and understood every word that Old Xiao said, “I see! Let’s delay the time, you can manually control the machine to turn the machine!” He yelled vigorously and couldn’t hear it. The voice of his own words, let alone whether Xiao Liping understood what he meant. "...It's on!"
Holding Aqiwei's waist with his hand, Gu Tie took out a pistol and smashed the glass window at the rear of the cabin with one shot.
