Paranormal Investigation Notes

Chapter 293 Precipitation
"The... distribution of evil forces?"

"Correct."

Shu Changshan nodded solemnly: "You can understand it this way. At this stage, the distribution of evil forces in this mountainous area can be regarded as the background environment. Then, by blocking the area, the background environment remains unchanged. When it comes to monsters When we hold a ceremony, the ceremony will cause certain fluctuations in the background environment.

Cooperate with our side, strengthen my inspiration through corresponding rituals, and compare it with the previous unchanged background environment, so I can know where changes have occurred.And there is where the monsters gather and perform rituals to try to provide guidance for the protoss.When the time comes, how to eliminate them will be up to you. "

This set of rhetoric... seems to be logically reasonable.

However, facing Shu Changshan's request, Lu Ming still frowned slightly.

Compared with Shu Changshan's rhetoric and the logic behind it, he is more concerned about the impact these requirements can have on human society.

The first three requirements are not difficult to meet.Only the fourth one, if the area of ​​about [-] square kilometers is blocked, then the impact on society will be relatively large.

During the previous search, Lu Ming had roughly memorized the terrain and population distribution of this area.

In this mountainous area of ​​South Chestnut Mountain, there are seven large roads and three railways passing through.As for the small road, it cannot be counted.

Although the permanent population in this mountain area is relatively small, there are as many as sixteen natural villages, three scenic spots, twelve forest guard stations, one laser research institute, two botanical research institutes, two wildlife research institutes, and several others. A miscellaneous organization.

To block so many villages, roads and institutions, this movement is too big.

Or we can further improve the accuracy to exclude as many villages and institutions as possible from the blockade area, but at least, those roads and railways cannot be excluded.

"Mr. Shu, in this case... there are too many people and infrastructure that need to be blocked."

Lu Ming thought about his words: "Is there any way to block some places less? For example, make some improvements in other aspects, find more blood, etc.?"

Shu Changshan pondered for a moment, and said: "Some places on the edge of the mountain, if you strengthen the search and inspection to ensure that monsters do not place the ceremony site there, then it is indeed possible not to block it. But your people must not enter the deep mountain. Otherwise, it will affect my spiritual power and make me feel inaccurate."

Lu Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

Those places further into the mountains are less populated and have fewer villages.Most villages and institutions are still located on the edge of the mountains.If the fringe areas could not be sealed off, almost ten villages would have been spared the fate of being blocked.

Zhang Dingshan said: "Where is the road?"

There are seven large highways and three railways. Every day, how many people and goods, how many vehicles and wealth pass through them.Blocking them is no joke.Even with the authority of the second team of operations, or even the authority of the operations department, it feels a little tricky.

Shu Changshan murmured: "For the railway, you don't have to worry about it. After all, the railway is closed, and you won't get off the bus or people in the middle. You can go as you come, and the interference with my inspiration is relatively small. If it's the road..."

He Wei cheered up: "The seven large roads are also closed. They are all expressways, and there is no crossing in the middle."

Shu Changshan felt a bit embarrassed: "If you don't block it, it's barely enough. However, the number of blood collectors needs to be increased to 20 people. Try to make up for it. Also, there is no way for small roads, so they must be blocked."

"This is no problem." Zhang Dingshan immediately expressed his opinion.

Anyway, after sealing off those villages and institutions, it is estimated that there are not many people walking on these small roads.Even if they are all blocked, the impact will be limited and within the acceptable range.

He Wei has already hurriedly fetched the map.Following the map, several people discussed and delineated the area and scope that needed to be blocked.According to the final statistics, within the blockade area, there are a total of five natural villages, one scenic spot, one botanical and animal research institute, six forest protection stations, and three miscellaneous institutions, with a total population of less than [-].

If these institutions and villages are blocked, the impact will not be too great.There is only one, which makes Lu Ming feel a little embarrassed.

Nankuri Laser Institute.

It is located more than ten kilometers deep into the blockade area, on a mountain near the top of the mountain.It is a research institution affiliated to a world-renowned university. Because it pays more attention to air quality and light pollution, and considers factors such as transportation and environment, it finally chose the location here.

There are a total of hundreds of scientific researchers and dozens of administrative staff working here.

No matter how one's own side defines the blockade area, Nanli Laser Research Institute will be included in the blockade area.At the same time, because of its high level, the second action team alone no longer has the authority to block it for more than ten days.

At least Director Li Wenhua is qualified to issue this order.

"or……"

Lu Ming considered his words: "If you want to block this area, it's not impossible. That is, can you temporarily move all the people who were originally in this area?"

Just like this laser research institute.It is difficult to lock so many people in the research institute for more than ten days.But if they are asked to suspend their work for more than ten days, don't keep them there during this period of time, it can be done with the authority of the second action team.

As for those villages, the villagers can be temporarily relocated and resettled without hidden dangers on the grounds that "the geological prospecting agency predicts that there is a high probability of geological disasters."This is also much easier than locking them in the village and not allowing them to come out.

Shu Changshan shook his head: "People who come here occasionally can move away. Those who live here, work, and live here for a long time cannot move away. Because these people have become the soul of this area. Part of the power. Removing rashly will disturb the spiritual power and make my inspiration impossible to perceive."

Although they didn't quite understand Shu Changshan's words, they could still understand his conclusions.

"There is another question. Is it dangerous to lock so many people together with those monsters?"

"No. At this critical moment, monsters will not be stupid enough to kill and expose themselves."

After getting this answer, Zhang Dingshan said: "Okay. I understand."

He didn't directly promise Shu Changshan to do it like this.This requires further internal discussions.

Shu Changshan left temporarily to further perfect the ceremony he was about to hold.The three of Zhang Dingshan stayed in the room, each remaining silent.

After a while, Lu Ming said: "If Shu Changshan insists on a complete blockade without the follow-up compromises, there is no need for us to hesitate here, just refuse."

He Wei frowned and said, "I still don't really believe in Shu Changshan's idea. But if his plan doesn't involve much, then try it, there is nothing to lose anyway."

Zhang Dingshan knocked on the table.

"Since you have made up your mind to follow the path of Shu Changshan for the time being, then don't hesitate. Whether it works or not, let's try it."

Here lies the crux of the problem.Since the consequences can be tolerated by one's own side, if you try it, you may even get higher benefits, so why not give it a try?
"I feel that it should be more secure."

Lu Ming thought about it and said, "In any case, once Shu Changshan's plan is implemented, objectively speaking, we have left space and time for the monsters. I am worried about what they will do during this time, For example... besieging villages or those institutions, and sacrificing the people inside?"

Although Shu Changshan thought that this situation would not happen, his own side had to consider this possibility.

He Wei thought for a moment, and said: "This problem is easy to solve. First, in those villages, people who have received military training are selected to form temporary village protection teams and distribute weapons to them. I checked, and in these villages there are There are veterans. There are also security forces in those institutions.

Second, mobilize satellite resources to keep a close eye on the changes in these villages and institutions from space.With our resources, it is absolutely possible to take a photo with a resolution of up to five centimeters for each village and institution every half an hour.Don't be afraid even if it's dark, satellites can take low-light shots.

Flying a drone is afraid of disturbing some spiritual power, satellites in space will not, right?

Third, multiple emergency alarm devices are installed in each place, and once there is a change, the police will be called immediately.No matter how powerful the monsters were, it wouldn't be too late for people to trigger an alarm.By the way, the alarm signal uses satellite communication to prevent the communication from being cut off. "

Lu Ming cheered up: "Okay. This way, the three-pronged approach will completely eliminate worries. In this case, in my opinion, there is no need to distinguish between temporary stays and long-term residences, and they can be blocked together."

Anyway, if you want to block some people, then simply block them all.

"Okay, just apply to Director Li."

Under the gaze of the two, Zhang Dingshan took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Wenhua's number.After listening to Zhang Dingshan talk about the progress he has made, the clues and information he has obtained, and the next arrangement, Li Wenhua was silent for a moment on the other side of the microphone.

After that, he said in a tired voice: "I don't know if it's your team's bad luck or what, why do you always encounter such difficult cases. Other teams may not be able to encounter them throughout their careers." once."

Zhang Dingshan said lightly: "This may be a bit of bad luck for our team. But for our civilization, I think it is a kind of luck."

"Lucky?"

"All of us should be thankful that this kind of case is handled by us, not by other teams. If our team can't handle it well, then...no team can handle it well."

Zhang Dingshan's tone was flat, but his words were full of undisguised confidence.

"What a big tone." Li Wenhua said with a hint of a smile in his voice: "Okay. I agree to your application. But there is one thing, your second team must understand that this Shu Changshan has not produced solid evidence so far. The so-called magic eye, protoss, light chaser, and world destroyer are all his one-sided words. I have no objection to you temporarily following his path and giving it a try, but you must be clear in your heart and listen to his words Watch it, don't trust it."

"Yes."

Li Wenhua made almost the same judgment as the members of the second action team.

At the same time, it is obvious that although Li Wenhua has shown enough attention to this case, he still has certain doubts in his heart about whether "destroying the world" is involved in this case, and he is not fully convinced.If it weren't for this, I'm afraid his tone couldn't be so relaxed.

Of course, this may also be due to the fact that they have enough confidence in the second action team.

After finalizing this matter, Lu Ming immediately notified Shu Changshan, and confirmed that the blockade period will start at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

Of course, the relevant block notices will now be issued.The reason why a period of buffer time is set aside is mainly for delivering supplies and arranging urgent matters, such as someone who needs emergency treatment.

By ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, the widest part of this area was about [-] kilometers, and the longest part was about [-] kilometers. The slightly curved and narrow mountain range, as well as several villages and institutions in it, officially entered a state of blockade .

All personnel staying here are strictly ordered, because of a certain military operation, no one is allowed to leave the village or institution area where they are located.If there is an urgent matter, you need to contact the outside world immediately, and report to the command department for discussion and then deal with it.

Moreover, a temporary village protection team has also been established, weapons have been issued, emergency alarm devices have been installed, and satellite observation resources in space have also been allocated in place.

For this sudden blockade order, the total of thousands of people showed unexpected obedience.Except for a few people who had relatively strong dissatisfaction, but their anger was calmed down under the dissuasion of the grassroots staff, the others only complained a few words at most, and then accepted the result.

Of course, this may have something to do with the fact that the second action team deliberately applied for a lot of funds, which will be distributed to everyone in the name of lost wages, compensation, etc. after the mission is over.

Anyway, the matter was settled like this.

Afterwards, at the temporary base, two helicopters took off roaringly, one carrying Shu Changshan, Zhang Dingshan, Lu Ming, and He Wei, and the other carrying a few guards, and flew towards the deep mountains of Nanli Mountain.

On the plane, Shu Changshan carefully looked at the mountains, rivers and vegetation below, and from time to time sketched some characters that only he himself understood.Sometimes he would ask the helicopter to land on the ground. If he didn't have the landing conditions, he would go down by rope and carefully check what was on a certain mountain or slope.

Sometimes he would also use some bone powder prepared in advance—these bone powders are all ground from human bones. According to him, the bone powder ground from human bones possesses a special spiritual power—sprinkle them into the air, and observe the changes in the mountain wind. Under the blowing, in which direction they fall, what shape they are after landing on the ground, where more falls, where less falls, etc., are very detailed.

In some places, he will release some flying insects such as flies, mosquitoes, bees, etc., to observe their behavior, see where they fly and where they land.

After a full day of work, surveying dozens of places deep in the mountains, Shu Changshan's brows gradually wrinkled.

After surveying another place, he finally said, "Inspector Zhang, you still need to stop all signal towers and network communications in this area."

Lu Ming couldn't understand this request.

"Their interference is too great, and the disturbance to the spiritual power in this area is too great."

Lu Ming frowned and said, "Will radio signals and network communications disrupt spiritual power?"

"Yes." Shu Changshan said: "In the sense of mysticism, light, especially invisible light, is a very special symbol."

Lu Ming resentfully closed his mouth.

Radio waves are also light, and there's nothing wrong with that in a physical sense.

Now that our own side has achieved this step, it's okay to go one step further and cut off the network communication.The big deal is that there will be more compensation in the later stage, just to compensate people who have no internet in the blocked area and can't go out.

As for those emergency alarm devices, don't worry about it.They use satellite communications, not signal towers.

Zhang Dingshan said in a low voice: "A satellite phone will be distributed to each institution and each village for emergency contact."

"Yes."

After finishing these things, Shu Changshan commanded the helicopter to fly for several hours in the mountains and jungles, surveyed more than a dozen places, and finally said: "Okay. You can go back."

Lu Ming said, "What should we do next?"

"Wait."

Shu Changshan seems to have confidence at this moment: "Wait for the spiritual power in this area to settle. The more they settle, the more obvious the disturbance to the spiritual power will be when the monsters perform rituals in the later stage."
