Farming in the Apocalypse: My Assassin Wife is Super Gentle 121

Chapter 121: A Small Floorboard

The man on the right nodded, then turned to look behind him, but he didn’t see anything.

“Bro, I feel like someone is always staring at us.”

The man next to him patted him on the head. “It’s the middle of the night. Don’t be so scary. Finish your cigarette and get back!”

“Bro, I was wrong, okay? Let me have another one.”

“Fine. After this one, we’re going back. The people inside are restless. I’m afraid Li Zi and the others can’t hold them.”

“Hey, okay, okay.”

After hearing this, Zhang Can’er and the others exchanged a look, then all looked at Ke Yajun.

Ke Yajun smiled apologetically, but they couldn’t speak now, only make hand gestures. But the other party might not understand the hand gestures, so in the end, they all stopped.

When the two men were walking back, the group quickly followed and successfully entered a house.

They saw the two men look around warily, then squat down and lift a hard floorboard. The two of them went down with a tacit understanding, without making much noise.

The room returned to its original state, and it was completely impossible to see that there was a basement inside.

Zhang Can’er frowned and walked to the floorboard that the two men had just lifted. Looking at the tightly fitted hard floorboard, she was at a loss.

How did those two people lift it just now? Was there a mechanism?

Thinking of this, she looked around. The room was empty, except for the walls and the floor. Oh, and a ceiling. There was nothing else.

The two men had not been separated just now, so even if there was a mechanism, it couldn’t be in other places. It had to be on this hard floorboard.

The material of the hard floorboard was hard stone. This material was simple and was the best choice for ordinary people in many towns because it was also very cheap. In terms of appearance, the Federation’s craftsmen had also designed them to be smooth and tidy, just that the color was not so good-looking, being a brownish-brown.

Zhang Can’er looked at the hard floorboard on the ground, thinking about the origin of the raw materials of the hard floorboard, to see if she would find anything. But after thinking for a long time, she didn’t find anything at all.

She turned to look at the others and found that they were all frowning and staring at this hard floorboard.

Mainly, it was too dark just now. The light from the two men’s mobile phones was limited, and they didn’t dare to get too close, so they didn’t see clearly how this hard floorboard was lifted.

This was not a solution. Zhang Can’er waved her hand, motioning for them to go out first. When they reached the roof, the group sat down and then took out some energy bars to replenish their strength a little.

“I can’t see anything on that floorboard,” Ke Yajun said, taking a bite of an energy bar.

Zhang Can’er glanced at her. “You should first explain to us why your bird didn’t scan anyone.”

“This… um… can I say that I forgot to install the sonar detector? I was just saying that something was missing. Hehehe.”

Looking at Ke Yajun’s both sheepish and embarrassed expression, the three of them sighed in unison, a little helpless.

“Then hurry up and install it. See how many people are down there, and what the mechanism of that floorboard is. If it really doesn’t work, we can only wait for them to come out and then do something.”

Ke Yajun nodded and immediately got to work.

After the mechanical bird was installed with the sonar, it detected more things. The number of people underground was almost twice that of the people above.

And that group of green dots, there were more than a hundred in total. According to the information given by Xiao Huan, there were also more than a hundred people who had participated in the open test. This meant that the people they were looking for were down there.

“To actually put people in such a small main city, I really didn’t expect it. Could it be that they thought Xiao Huan would directly attack the military base, so they put all the people in this small main city? Then this is really not easy to find,” Ke Yajun said, looking at the group of green dots on the screen.

There were still many small main cities in the sky island. If they were to look for them, it would also take a lot of time. But this was just a matter of time. As long as the head of the military base was dealt with, those small fries would not be a problem.

“If that’s the case, then we’re quite lucky to have found them so quickly.”

After confirming that the people were here, Zhang Can’er made some arrangements and then entered the room again.

Ke Yajun had just fiddled with something and said that it could directly lift things weighing several thousand catties. For the time being, she named it: “Lift a Thousand Catties.”

This thing was very much like a magnetic suction disc, except that there was a ring-like thing on it, which looked very small.

Zhang Can’er once suspected, could this thing really lift a thousand catties?

But when Ke Yajun lifted that floorboard, Zhang Can’er no longer doubted it. This thing was really useful!

Ke Yajun looked down at the dark hole, and only then did she remember to put on her full night vision glasses.

The other three looked at this pair of glasses and suddenly felt that they had been so stupid before. If they had just put this on, wouldn’t they have been able to see the two people’s technique clearly? Why did they have to waste so much time here?

And they had also followed that bird in the dark for a long time. The more they thought about it, the more they felt stupid.

Zhang Can’er didn’t want to admit that it was them who had walked so carefully on the roof in the dark. How come no one remembered this thing? There were four of them, and not a single one had thought of it.

If it weren’t for Ke Yajun taking it out, they would probably have never remembered that they still had this thing.

The three of them sighed in unison, then put on their glasses and walked to the vicinity of the hole.

The hole was really a hole, a round hole that only one person could go down. And the surroundings were all clods of earth. It looked like there was no money to repair it.

Fortunately, it was not very deep, at most the height of two people. The four of them jumped down easily.

After going down, it was a corridor. At the end of the corridor was a wooden staircase. And below the staircase, soldiers began to guard.

The place where the soldiers were guarding was an iron gate. Looking in from the door, one could see a group of soldiers eating on the left, and on the right was the place where the hostages were kept.

Those people were all in rags, begging the soldiers for some food. Some had even kowtowed until their heads were broken. And some were huddled in the corner, their eyes warily looking around.

Zhang Can’er looked at this scene. It was impossible not to feel pity. Since the people had been found, then she could contact Xiao Huan. It would be simpler to rescue them later.

The few of them went out of the underground and then returned to the dormitory. After changing into their own clothes, the few of them climbed out of the wall and went into the forest.

Zhang Can’er did not contact Xiao Huan. She felt that it would be more secure to contact Xiao Huan after she had finished scouting the small military base.

After a little planning, the few of them found a place in the forest to set up their tents and then slept for a night.

After eating something in the early morning, they set off toward the small military base.

The small military base was still a little distance from this small main city. After all, one was near the edge, and the other was in the center. Who knew how many small main cities were between them?

So the four of them still decided to walk in a straight line. Although they had to pass through dangerous places like high mountains and cliffs, with Ke Yajun, they were not afraid.
