Chapter 39 Pipeline

In order not to appear to be a jerk, Yanshe explained the reasons why strange things happened one after another in the old shopping mall, which was also the main reason why he had to find Chu Yu as soon as he came back.

The group of old men and women who were dancing in the square suddenly fainted on the ground. Their organs were rapidly failing, their hair was falling out on a large scale, and their resistance was almost zero. The cause of this was indeed poisoning.

The cause of their poisoning was the milky white gases seeping from the ground. These gases, like the fire snakes, also "traveled" back through time.

Time travel has extremely harsh conditions, and the corresponding coordinates cannot be changed by human power.

To explain it in simple terms, the place you travel to is right there, you can go there or not. It's good enough that you are allowed to go there, there's no need to go through so much trouble.

In the future, no matter where you set up your machine, the place you travel back to the present world will be fixed.

Regarding this issue, it cannot be changed even in the future, no matter whether it is ten or twenty years later, no matter whether the machine is set up on the ground or in the sea, it will definitely come back and will land in Nangang.

This means that the location of time and space travel is fixed, and there is only one city in the country that has fixed time and space travel coordinates , and that is Nangang.

In Nangang, there are two fixed locations for traveling back and forth, one is near the old shopping center, and the other is by the Xijiao River, which is where the Fire Snake landed after traveling back and forth.

This also explains why Wang Fan always ran to the riverside in the western suburbs late at night when he had nothing to do.

In addition to the Xijiao River, the old shopping center is a natural crossing point. Strictly speaking, it is not a crossing point, but a naturally formed pipeline connecting the future and the reality.

According to Yanshe, many years ago, Chu Fugui returned to the human world to deal with this naturally formed "pipeline."

The way to deal with it is simple and violent, which is to find a rich sucker to build a building on the crossing point.

Chu Yu also knew this sucker, but the sucker didn't know him.

Big Head’s name is Feng Kaishan, a famous wealthy man in China.

I don’t know how Chu Fugui fooled Feng Kaishan into investing tens of billions to build a building.

The location where this Fengshi Mountain was built was right above the crossing point.

First, the foundation was hollowed out and then filled with special materials. Finally, the 32-story Feng Building was built on top. In this way, the crossing point was temporarily blocked, just like filling a leak with concrete.

But now the problem has arisen, that is, the traffic jam has been blocked, but it cannot be completely stopped!

The Flame Snake made a very vivid metaphor.

If the outlet of a water pipe is blocked but water is continuously poured into the inlet, the outlet will rupture and crack under the water pressure.

Because the space is too small for people to pass through the cracks and fissures, other materials can pass through them.

If the building is the outlet of the water pipe, then the old shopping mall where the incident occurred is the place where the rupture occurred due to water pressure near the outlet.

This situation does not necessarily mean that someone has traveled through time to the future world. It may just be because the present place and the future place have caused a time and space distortion phenomenon, which causes the "air" from the future world to "travel" to the present world through the broken place of the water outlet.

The corpse pit in the old shopping mall, that big round ground collapse accident, was actually caused by a time travel point.

Not far from the corpse pit was a construction site. Fang Musheng claimed that he wanted to build another "Nine Pillars" Cultural Center, but in fact he was burying corpses.

As a result, the old guy was unlucky. The "water pipe" burst, causing the ground to collapse, and the buried bodies were exposed to the light of day.

There was more than one leaking point after the "water pipe" broke. If the corpse pit was the first leaking point, then the mist seeping out from the ground was the second leaking point, but it was not as serious as the first one. At least the ground had not collapsed yet.

The "fog" that Chu Yu had seen in the video before, in Yanshe's words, was actually the ordinary "air" in the future world. Theoretically speaking, this high-concentration toxic "fog" was actually of the same nature as the "air" that people breathe in the present world.

The reason why the "fog" caused a group of old men and women to undergo abnormal physical changes and be in critical condition is that there is an essential difference between people in the present world and people in the future. People in the present world do not have the virus "vaccine" that people in the future world have been injected into their bodies since childhood.

In the future world, the air people breathe contains not only nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and rare gases such as helium, neon, argon, and krypton, but also seventy-six kinds of viruses, large and small.

There are many reasons for these viruses, the main one being air pollution, including industrial emissions, radioactive substances, garbage burning, microbial mutations, virus mutations caused by local biological and chemical warfare, and so on.

In comparison, the concentration of the air containing deadly viruses is not high. After "floating" into the world and then being constantly "diluted", it does not cause much harm.

It just happened to be a group of old men and women dancing there, gasping for breath, and all of them were sucked in.

Yanshe told Chu Yu that there were only two things he needed to do now.

The first thing was to rush to the hospital to rescue these old men and women. If the rescue was not timely, the people would definitely die. It didn’t matter if they died, but if the bodies were not burned immediately, the virus would mutate again. By then, the Flame Snake would not be able to completely solve the problem.

This mutation is caused by microbial bacteria that parasitize the blood and organs in the body.

Even if a person dies, these bacteria will continue to multiply and mutate on the corpse, unless it is cremated immediately.

Chu Yu deeply agreed that the hospital had no right to cremate the body without authorization. If it was not handled in time, the spread of the mutated virus would cause a huge crisis and disaster.

As for the second thing, which is also the most important, it is to repair the broken point of the "water outlet"!

If it's not blocked, this will continue to happen.

However, Yanshe had no idea how to find the broken point or how to repair it, so he could only rescue the people first and then deal with other things.

In fact, saving people is not particularly difficult.

Just say hello to Bai Yue and then take Yanshe to the hospital. The latter has his own way to treat those old men and women.

But the situation is different now, because...Sun Minhui secretly sent him a message saying that Bai Yue had given the order and all the tactical support team members began to "search" for him.

Chu Yu wanted to call Bai Yue to explain, but Yanshe refused to agree because he said there was an "undercover" inside the Public Affairs Safety Supervision Bureau, an undercover from NH Company!

Although he understood the whole process, Chu Yu was still in trouble.

Now is different than usual. Without the support of the Public Affairs Security Supervisor, he can't just run to the hospital with the Fire Snake to save people.

Chu Yu lit a cigarette and complained, "Why did you go and find someone? Why did you smash the nightclub for no reason? Now Bai Yue and the others are trying to catch you. What do you want me to do?"

"What can we do? Can't we do our work after leaving the Public Affairs and Safety Supervision Bureau?" Yanshe shrugged nonchalantly. "Go directly to the hospital and rescue people. If anyone tries to stop us, I'll just kill them."

Chu Yu sneered, "You haven't had enough of being a wanted criminal in the future, have you?"

Yanshe spread his hands, "Then what do you say we should do?"

"have no idea."

Chu Yu was also very anxious. After thinking for a while, he said helplessly, "Let's go to the hospital first. Saving lives is the most important thing. We'll see what happens later. Bai Yue... is relatively reasonable."

At this point, Chu Yu's tone became a little weak. In his entire life, he had never seen a woman as unreasonable as Bai Yue.

Yanshe didn't notice the strange look on Chu Yu's face, and said excitedly, "Okay, search the Internet for the floor plan of the hospital, as well as the entrances and exits and fire escapes, including security forces, etc."

"What do you want to do?"

Yanshe was slightly stunned, then smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, it's professional habit, so there's no need for that."

...

Nangang Central Hospital.

Bai Yue stood outside the isolation ward with a frown on her face.

After a while, an old man in chemical protective clothing came out.

The old man’s surname is Liu, Liu Baichuan, the vice president of the hospital and also an expert in virology.

Bai Yue walked up quickly, "Dean Liu, what's the situation? Are you sure it's a viral infection?"

"It's confirmed. It's caused by multiple unknown viruses." Sun Weimin shook his head. "The situation is not optimistic. I have contacted the relevant units. The virus database said there are no similar cases or virus samples. There is nothing to check."

Bai Yue's face was as gloomy as water. There wasn't even a virus sample, let alone an antidote or serum.

"You guys should do your best." Bai Yue paused and continued, "Give all the information about the patient to my colleagues, including the information you have. Also, let my men seal off the floor. Please cooperate and check on the patient every half an hour."

Liu Baichuan nodded and left quickly to take care of his own business.

Looking back at Meng Yong standing behind him, Bai Yue asked, "Any news about Chu Yu and the nightclub attacker?"

"The office retrieved the surveillance video from the road. Chu Yu and the young man who attacked the nightclub have gone home. Old Sun has already taken people there. Oh, yes, according to the patrol officers from the Public Security Bureau, the young man's name is Yanshe. The office has checked, but can't find any information."

"Going home? Going to Chu Yu's home?"

Meng Yong nodded.

Bai Yue asked again, "Was Chu Yu taken away by force?"

Meng Yong sighed silently, "It wasn't forced. The two of them rode back on an electric bike. Judging from their behavior, they should be friends. At least Chu Yu was not taken away by force."

A trace of disappointment flashed across Bai Yue's eyes, and she said calmly, "I understand. Also, tell the tactical support team to be careful over there."

Meng Yong opened his mouth, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Bai Yue said in a deep voice, "I... am not saying be careful of Chu Yu, but be careful of that dangerous person called Yanshe."

"Boss, we are already short-handed. Do you want to put aside the matter of Chu Yu and Yanshe and investigate the poisonous gases first?"

Just as Bai Yue was about to speak, the elevator door in the distance opened and a man with a square face walked out first, followed by a group of burly men dressed the same as Meng Yong.
