Card Maker: My Cards Infinite Chain

Chapter 122 Probing for information, confiscating the bureau

Yujiang is very close to Yeye, one of the twelve cities of Yan Kingdom, and it is a frontier city in the northwest of Yan Kingdom.

It was the first time for Yu Cang to come to the border of Yan Kingdom, so he couldn't help being a little curious, but after being reminded by Wan Quan, he realized that this place is actually still within the range of Yedu, and the real Yujiang can only be reached by walking further.

So Yu Cang and the others boarded the military vehicle of the second company. After driving through a vast desert, a black horizon suddenly became clear in the yellow sand... No, that is not a horizon, it is a tower standing in the wilderness. the high wall!

Tianjiang Great Wall!

This world is surrounded by desolate beasts, and if human beings want to gain a foothold in it, they must have the means to resist the desolate beasts.

There are not many countries on the blue star, but each has its own unique skills. Just like Haiting, even if the entire country is built in a super-large ocean vortex called "Tianbao Yuanliu", it is difficult for even a mythical desolate beast to break in by force.

In this world, most of the other countries rely on external forces, or the power of nature, or the power of spirit beasts to resist wild beasts. Some countries have not even fully understood what they are relying on until now, but only the Yan Kingdom, Relying on this man-made thing that stretches thousands of miles - Tianjiang Great Wall.

Since Emperor Zulong, every myth has come to Tianjiang Great Wall to repair and make up for it, which makes this miracle still stand until now.

Yujiang is a city that relies on the Tianjiang Great Wall.

Arriving at the entrance to the inner side of Yujiang City, Yu Cang looked up at the city wall of Yujiang City through the car window. It was tens of meters high, and this was only the inner side. The real Tianjiang Great Wall would only be more majestic than this.

Even Lin Yunqing couldn't help showing a curious look when looking around.

Entering Yujiang City, the buildings here are not too tall, but they are all sharp and angular, and there are many open spaces, which seem to be used for exercises. Looking towards the extreme distance, one can see a high wall unfolding in the distance, extending infinitely to both sides of the line of sight.

The military vehicle didn't stop, drove through several streets, and arrived at their stronghold in Yujiang City these days.

It can be seen that the stronghold has been cleaned, and the facilities inside are all available, and they are very clean, so you can move in directly.

"Company Commander Wan." Yu Cang found Wan Quan, "Can we go out for a walk?"

"Of course." Wanquan nodded, "Yujiang is the kind of city that is open to the outside world, most of the places here can be visited, and even if you submit an application in advance, you can also climb the Great Wall of Tianjiang from here to see the scenery. "

"Is it possible?" Yu Cang's eyes lit up.

"Well, yes... If you are interested, I can take you up the city wall to see it another day. To be honest, the scenery is really good."

"Thank you very much!" Yu Cang chuckled.

...

Leaving from Wanquan, Yu Cang called Lin Yunqing and walked out of the stronghold with Qi'er.

"This is for you." Lin Yunqing handed over a small bottle.

"This is...?" Yu Cang blinked.

"Sunscreen." Lin Yunqing had already put on sunglasses and a mask, "Yujiang is windy and sandy, and the sun is also very strong. This is a necessary protective measure... But, didn't the seniors prepare in advance before coming to Yujiang?"

"Eh..." Yu Cang laughed sarcastically.

He really wasn't ready.

Looking at the chess pieces beside him curiously, Yu Cang pondered for a while.

Being mentioned by Lin Yunqing was indeed a little negligent. I am fine, Qi'er doesn't know if I can bear it or not.

Fortunately, there are also some daily necessities stores in Yujiang, so Yu Cang found one at random, and walked in with Qier. When she came out, the girl had already changed her attire.

She put on a pair of sunglasses and stood in front of the mirror. She seemed to realize that she was very handsome now. She stepped on a small stone with her hands on her hips, making a tugging expression.

Yu Cang opened the terminal silently, took a photo of Qi'er, and said: "Qi'er is ready, put on the mask, don't be choked by the wind and sand."

"Got it, brother."

Yu Cang held the girl's hand and was about to start the tour when a voice came from behind.

"Yu Cang? Is it you?"

Yu Cang raised his eyebrows, then turned around slowly.

I saw two people standing behind him. They didn't look very old, they should be just students.

"It's you..." Yu Cang took off his sunglasses, and a distant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "...Wen Yang."

"Long time no see, Yu Cang." Wen Yang said with a smile, "Why, you don't call me Senior Brother now?"

"I've been kicked out of the lab, let's forget about this relationship." Yu Cang looked into Wen Yang's eyes, "You're here too, so... your project is finally completed?"

"Yeah, it's not easy." Wen Yang sighed a little, "I've been making major changes to this armament since I entered school, and now I'm already a researcher... What about you, Yu Cang, why are you here?"

Yu Cang finally showed a sincere smile on his face.

Good luck, it seems.

The first time I participated, I met you...

Wen Yang was exactly one of the students that his teacher Wu Chutai had taught in the imperial capital before. He was mainly involved in the project of preparing for the major reform of armaments.

Of course, the person in charge of this project is Wu Chutai himself, and Wen Yang is just a helper. But for a student, being able to participate in a project of this level is already very powerful.

Thinking of this, Yu Cang said, "Of course it's also for the major reform of armaments."

"Oh?" Wen Yang's eyes lit up, "It seems that you have done well after returning to the ancient capital... The ancient capital came to participate in the major military equipment reform, and it can even bring you along."

"Yes, good luck." Yu Cang smiled lightly.

Wen Yang suddenly moved closer, and whispered: "Hey, what project did you come to the ancient capital this time? Can you reveal it?"

"Sorry, no."

"Hey, classmates, let's exchange news... I can tell you, our achievement this time is a breakthrough in the healing ability of the light attribute and continuous combat... How about it, I am interesting enough, all this tells You, please give us some news."

Yu Cang was amused.

He said, "Okay, it's the Mechanical Department."

"Ah?" Wen Yang was stunned for a moment, "Yu Cang, don't scare me... What kind of connection can toys of the mechanical department have with the major reform of armaments?"

"It's fine if you don't believe me." Yu Cang said with a smile, "You will know when the major reform begins... We still have something to do, so we will leave first."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Wen Yang, turned around and left.

On the side, Lin Yunqing took a careful look at Wen Yang through the sunglasses, then followed Yu Cang.

"Hey, Yu Cang!" Wen Yang stretched out his hand to stop him, but failed.

"Come on, Wen Yang, what's the point of talking to this kind of person." The person next to him snorted and spat out the grass roots in his mouth, "It's useless to talk to this kind of ignorant person."

"... Hu Chen, I just want to find out some information." Wen Yang looked at Yu Cang's back and gritted his teeth, "This kid... just don't want to talk about it, what's going on with the mechanical system! I'm like Is it so easy to lie!"

"Aren't you lying to him too, the healing ability of the light attribute... Laughing dead."

"It's different, at least I didn't just talk nonsense to fool people."

"Cut, a virtue." Hu Chen curled his lips, "Okay, let's go quickly, don't waste time. Collecting intelligence is completely meaningless. You have seen the results this time, and they are very strong. In addition to this year's military equipment The topic has been changed a lot, the number one is already in our bag, don’t do unnecessary things.”

"……All right."

...

After walking for a while, Qi'er suddenly tugged at Yu Cang's hand: "Brother, that man's smile is so fake."

"It's okay, just ignore him." Yu Cang rubbed the girl's head.

Lin Yunqing looked over at this moment and said, "Have you had a festival before?"

"Not to mention."

He and Wen Yang didn't have any problems at all. Although they were both students of the same teacher at the beginning, because the major military reform project needed to be kept secret, they didn't have much contact with each other.

The only few contacts he gave himself were—very utilitarian.

There is nothing wrong with utilitarianism, but it also makes Yu Cang have no desire to have a close relationship.

Just like this time, he is obviously not that familiar, and he still has to force him to get close, and the information he gave... Let's forget it.

He didn't think Wen Yang would be so stupid as to casually leak information about his own laboratory, and there was someone standing beside him.

"Do you need me to gather some information?"

"Oh?" Yu Cang was a little curious, "How do you collect it?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Lin Yunqing stroked his sunglasses.

"Forget it... Although Company Commander Wan said that before the major armament changes, this process of mutual intelligence testing was considered part of the game by default, but for us, it is not necessary."

As mentioned earlier, the competition system of the major armament reform is three mandatory and seven optional, and there is a lot of attention to it.

Leaving aside the three mandatory options, it is very particular about which three of the seven optional items should be selected.

Because the scoring of optional items is based on your ranking in the item, and every achievement is definitely not omnipotent, so you must try your best to choose your own strong subjects, or avoid others' strong subjects.

This also means that if you can know the relevant information of other participating teams in advance, you can use this to apply for projects in a targeted manner to make your ranking as high as possible. Even by using some strategies, some projects that are not excellent can get a better score.

Therefore, it is very important to obtain as much information as possible before the game, and the game officials seem to be happy to see the scene of mutual testing between teams. After all, reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance are also part of the test of ability.

With the acquiescence of the organizers, the week before each major armament change will be very exciting.

However, Yu Cang and the others don't need to engage in such bells and whistles.

Because after discussing with Yu Cang, Lei Wanqing decided that they would choose all of the seven options!

As long as the seven items take the first place at the same time, then naturally there is no need to consider intelligence!

Yes, you can choose all the optional items... This is the rule of the major armament reform, but before, no one dared to try this way.

Because, no matter how many are selected, the final score is to choose the highest three. There is not much advantage in choosing more, and it will only waste the physical fitness of the soldiers.

Another very important point is - if you expose your shortcomings in some weak projects, then the final jury will not be polite when they score, and will definitely give you a low score that breaks the lower limit, and even they are in a bad mood One point, it is possible to give a negative score.

But Lei Wanqing is very confident.

This mechanical system can definitely support this style of play!

If he can overwhelm the crowd and make the seven choices the first at the same time, it will definitely give Lei Wanqing a lot of face in front of other military regions.

It doesn't matter even if there are a few second places. Everyone understands this situation. It will definitely shock the jury.

Yu Cang was a little speechless at this flamboyant style of flamboyant play, but seeing that Lei Wanqing was quite serious, he agreed.

Well, if you think about it now, if you can completely suppress Wu Chutai's team, that would be great.

Yu Cang and the others were walking on the street, and there were suddenly more pedestrians not far ahead. There were many shops selling souvenirs on both sides of the road, and there were some hawkers. It seemed that it was the kind of commercial street specially catering to tourists.

Yan Kingdom has not experienced a war for more than a hundred years, and its borders have always been very stable. The security line has been pushed tens of kilometers away from the Great Wall. Under this environment, some border cities with good conditions have gradually loosened access restrictions. , available for tourists to visit.

Most of the people living in Jiangcheng are descendants of border guards. It would be a good thing if some of their income could be increased through tourism.

Probably because the fire festival is approaching, there are already many tourists on this street, but it is not too crowded.

Yu Cang and others walked into it, and they bought some interesting things when they saw them, which was also interesting.

Among them, Qi'er was naturally the happiest. After walking all the way, he already had a lot of Yujiang's special snacks in his stomach, and he also had a small windmill in his hand.

"Hey! This little brother!"

"Huh?" Yu Cang turned his head, "Call me?"

"Yes!" A young peddler came out of the stall and said with a smile, "Brother, how about buying a sachet for your girlfriend? This fragrance is nourishing, and after wearing it for a long time, your skin and mood will improve. "

Qi'er was walking forward holding Yu Cang's hand, but when she heard this, she immediately turned her head and said, "My sister is not my brother's girlfriend!"

The peddler's expression remained unchanged: "Then you can buy one too. I have a lot of fragrances here, and they are unisex."

Yu Cang smiled: "I'll take a look first."

He came to the stall and brushed the various sachets on the stall with his hand, suddenly, his expression changed.

Ye Lai, who was lying on Cang's shoulders for a nap, raised his head slightly, but when he saw Yu Cang's changed expression, he seemed to smile, and put his head back near Yu Cang's collarbone.

Yu Cang picked up a sachet and said casually, "This stall owner...doesn't sound like a local with his accent."

"Hey... my guess is really accurate." The stall owner said with a smile, "I came to this place with my father's generation, and setting up a stall is just to make a living."

"That's it... What's in this sachet? It's not harmful to the body."

"Brother, you are joking. There are some herbs and petals in it. I am a small business. How dare I do those things that seek money and kill me."

"Really." Yu Cang smiled, and suddenly said, "Are you here to participate in the military equipment reform?"

"Ah?" The stall owner was taken aback for a moment, "What major changes to the military equipment..."

Yu Cang's expression softened slightly: "If not, then I will call the police."

The stall owner's face changed, and he quickly said: "Don't, don't... Alas, I'll just say, this trick can't fool anyone at all, so I have to do it!"

There was a smile on Yu Cang's face.

In this sachet, there is a breath of soul energy, although it is very subtle, but Yu Cang subconsciously activated the resonance just now, and still noticed a little clue.

He secretly activated a detection card, but found nothing. If Yu Cang hadn't set a one-hour countdown on the sachet with an entry recorder, he would almost have thought that the fluctuations in the soul energy he sensed just now were all gone. It's my own illusion.

Yu Cang made a simple test with words, and the stall owner was really tricked.

Seeing that the stall owner had already shown his cards, Yu Cang put the sachet back on the stall, and said casually, "Where did you come from, brother?"

"Miaodu Military Region..." the stall owner said angrily.

"Miaodu." Yu Cang looked at him, "What's in this sachet? It's quite secretive, I almost didn't notice it."

"Hey." The stall owner scratched his head, "It's nothing... just a few Gu worms..."

"Gu worms?!" Yu Cang's eyes widened slightly, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back, "You guys are so big? Are you still playing Gu?"

"No, no, don't get me wrong." The stall owner quickly explained, "This Gu worm only has a monitoring function, nothing else..."

Seeing that Yu Cang still had an expression of disbelief, he wanted to explain, but at this moment, a few urban management officers came to the side and walked straight towards him.

The stall owner's face changed, and he didn't care about Yu Cang anymore. He pulled up the cart, got into an alley, and ran away!

"Stop!" The urban management immediately caught up.

In the same place, Yu Cang stared at the stall owner who suddenly disappeared, and was stunned.

You didn't even get a business license... You didn't even say hello to the city management!

Anyway, there is a military region standing behind him, so it's not like he can't even do such a small thing.

Yu Cang thought that his stall was just a cover, but he didn't expect him to be so perfunctory.

This... If he accidentally didn't find out and was deceived by such perfunctory means, wouldn't it be embarrassing.

However, no one should fall for it.

"So stupid." Lin Yunqing commented sharply.

"Forget it, leave him alone, let's go somewhere else." Yu Cang sighed, took Qi'er's little hand and left.

After walking out of this street, Yu Cang already had a few bags of souvenirs in his hands. It is rare to come to Yujiang and bring something for old man Ren Zheng and Jie Shuang.

Not to mention anything else, there is often wind and sand blowing here in Yujiang. If you don't pay attention, your skin will definitely be blown to pieces. In this environment, the quality of the hand cream must be very good!

Yu Cang came to this conclusion after carefully observing the skins of those shop assistants.

When it was close to noon, Yu Cang took Qi'er and Lin Yunqing to find a store with good reviews nearby, solved the problem of lunch, and then strolled all the way back to the stronghold.

"Huh? Is someone looking for me?" Yu Cang was taken aback, "Who?"

"Yeah." Wanquan nodded, "I asked, and he said that his identity needs to be kept secret, but he also has a military rank and is a member of the military."

"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows, and had some guesses in his heart, "Okay, I got it."

"Then I'll go back first." Lin Yunqing took off his sunglasses, "If you need anything, please feel free to contact me."

"good."

...

When he came to the reception room, Yu Cang saw the person Wan Lianchang was talking about.

This is a middle-aged man, wearing a military uniform, with a straight figure, sitting on a chair at the moment, leaning on the side of his face with one hand, holding a book in the other hand, with lazy eyes.

It's just that this new military uniform is a bit too much, it seems that he doesn't wear it at all.

"You are?" Yu Cang asked suspiciously.

"Huh?" The man raised his head, his lazy eyes lit up, "Xiao Cang, you're finally back, but you kept me waiting for a long time...why, you don't know me anymore? Sigh, it seems that you were bullied less when you were young." ..."

Yu Cang seemed to have thought of something suddenly, his eyes widened: "Wait, you... are you Cheng Mingye?"

"Hmm." Cheng Mingye snorted with a smile.

But Yu Cang immediately became vigilant. He quickly took out a detection soul card and scanned every corner of the room. He found it again.

"...Okay, don't worry about it." Cheng Mingye sighed, "If I still want to bully you, you boy won't be able to figure it out."

"What are you doing here?" Yu Cang still didn't relax his vigilance, he took a few steps back with his arms around Qi'er.

This Chengming Ye was a classmate of his parents back then, so I have to call him Uncle Cheng, but the problem is that his personality is extremely bad!

He especially likes to play some naive games with himself when he was a child, and the methods of teasing himself are endless. , but I have the soul of a time traveler!

Because he didn't want his parents to see that he was too mature, he had to step into some traps that looked suspicious at first glance, and then looked at Cheng Ming Ye who suddenly appeared there with a speechless face and laughed. , and there is no way to deal with him.

After Yu Cang raised his defense against him later, he also frantically changed his tricks, and even used his soul card against Yu Cang, a child!

This guy is too bad!

Fortunately, within a few years, this guy went somewhere and never came back, Yu Cang almost forgot about him.

Today's sudden appearance really shocked him.

"Me..." Cheng Mingye smiled, "Why don't you guess?"

"……Stop it."

"Okay, Yu Cang, you've become a lot more boring." Cheng Mingye yawned, then reached into his arms, and took out a soul card, "Look, what is this?"

Yu Cang was silent.

The one he took out was exactly the same as the soul card that Lei Wanqing gave him as a token of the confinement bureau.

Yu Cang frowned with some headache: "Are you the one who received the police?"

"Of course." Cheng Mingye stood up, "You know, old nephew, I was so excited that I didn't sleep well for several days when I heard that a little boy named Yu Cang was going to visit the police station. After Yujiang, I came here immediately, how is it, are you moved?"

Yu Cang: "...I remember that I will go to the bureau after the major changes in armaments."

"Hey, it doesn't matter, it's the same if you come earlier." Cheng Mingye smiled, and he looked at the chess player beside him.

At this time, the girl had already shrunk behind Yu Cang, only showing a small head, looking at him very scared.

Seeing Cheng Mingye's gaze, the girl even retracted her head completely behind Yu Cang, pretending that she was not there.

"Is this the soul card?" Cheng Mingye's smile gradually softened, and his tone suddenly became lighter, "Don't worry, nephew, I will never let it hurt you, I promise..."

"...Don't be like this, we are afraid." Yu Cang swallowed.

"And..." Cheng Mingye tilted his head slightly, his eyes fell on Ye Lai who was on Cang's shoulders, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "There is another suspicious little guy... that is the 'Ye Lai' of unknown origin, right... ..."

"Greetings to you." Ye Lai looked at Cheng Ming Ye with calm eyes.

...

Although he didn't want to see this guy a little bit, but since he had come to his door, Yu Cang followed him to the confinement bureau.

"I'm sorry, Yu Cang." The apology on Cheng Mingye's face seemed very sincere, "My job is a bit special, and I can't leave Yujiang. After knowing what happened to you in the imperial capital, there is nothing I can do."

"...you still have the time to pay attention to me in the confinement bureau?"

"Of course, although you can't do anything else, you can still collect some information." Cheng Mingye laughed again, "However, I don't think this is a bad thing for you. Take more detours when you are young, my nephew is already very talented, if it goes too smoothly, I will worry that you will start to pervert like me."

"You still know...forget it." Yu Cang sighed.

"However, I heard later that my nephew has made a lot of amazing things."

"..."

...

The long road finally passed, the military vehicle stopped, and several people got off one by one.

"Didn't you say go to the police station?" Yu Cang looked around, "Where is this place?"

This place looks like an ordinary dead end, located between two high walls, and there is no one around.

"Here it is." Cheng Mingye smiled, then stretched out his hand and took out the keepsake soul card, "Yu Cang, next, remember my actions."

I saw him stretching out his slender fingers, and the soul card was automatically suspended, and it became bigger and bigger in the air, and the darkness in the pattern on the card also expanded, covering the soul card outwards. All information on the card until the entire card surface is covered.

In the end, this soul card had swelled to the size of the door, Cheng Mingye moved his fingers slightly, and it rushed forward immediately, sticking it to the wall at the end of the dead end.

There seemed to be a buzzing sound, and the soul card seemed to be embedded in the wall, and the darkness above the card surface continued to flow, forming a "door curtain".

"Okay, this is the gate of the confinement bureau." Cheng Mingye turned his head and smiled at Yu Cang, "I'll wait for you inside, come quickly."

After all, he took a step forward and entered the dark curtain of the door. Immediately afterwards, the door rolled up in an instant, and then disappeared.

Yu Cang looked at the keepsake soul card in his hand.

"So, is this soul card the key to the gate of the confinement bureau... Or, he is the gate to the confinement bureau? It's quite amazing."

It seems that this soul card is exclusive to everyone, just like Cheng Mingye, he opened the door with his keepsake soul card, and he can only enter by himself, Yu Cang can't follow.

It's a pity that the keepsake soul card in my hand is only for myself temporarily, and I still have to take it back when Qi'er's business is over.

"Okay, let me see, it's used like this, right..." Yu Cang stretched out his finger, and the keepsake soul card continued to expand, and finally opened a door on the wall.

Yu Cang took a deep breath and tightened Qi'er's hand.

"Let's go, Qier, let's go in."

"Yeah!" The girl nodded nervously.

Taking a step forward, Yu Cang only felt that his eyes were dark, and when he opened his eyes again, the scenery in front of him had changed drastically.

Yu Cang's eyes widened slightly.

What he saw...was a bit different from what he had imagined.

He originally thought that the confinement bureau should be like his laboratory, at most it would be more fortified, with more rooms and better protection.

But in front of it... let alone a laboratory, it's not even a house.

This is an empty space, no matter whether you look up or down, you can't see the end. Yu Cang has reason to suspect that the front, back, left, and right are also the same, but at this moment, countless soul cards are arranged in a circle around him, forming a wide space. Cylindrical, it forms a tower shape around Yucang.

These soul cards are layered on top of each other, but they are not tightly placed. From the gaps between the soul cards, many thin yellow straight lines can be seen swimming in the darkness, which looks very technological.

These soul cards all look the same as the token soul cards in Yu Cang's hands, to be precise, they are the same as the token soul cards that turned into doors.

There is no ground here, so Yu Cang is standing on a soul card at this moment, and after feeling it for a while, Yu Cang suddenly realizes that the soul card he is stepping on is exactly the keepsake soul card. It's just that he is standing on the back of the card now.

hum...

There was a buzzing sound, and a soul card was suddenly pulled out from the void, and Cheng Mingye's figure stepped down from it.

At this moment, he had already changed out of his military uniform and put on a loose white coat. When he came out, he was still buttoning up his clothes.

"Ah...the clothes are still comfortable to wear." After the door disappeared, it immediately turned into a soul card and appeared at Cheng Mingye's feet. He smiled, "Welcome to the confinement bureau."

"Here..." Yu Cang's tone was a little amazed, "It's much more spectacular than I imagined."

"Of course—this place is actually inside a handed down soul card." Cheng Mingye walked towards Yu Cang, the keepsake soul card automatically moved under his feet, and the pattern on it also moved backwards as Cheng Mingye moved forward .

It didn't look like the keepsake soul card was carrying him to fly, it was more like there was a floor here, but it was invisible, and the part where the keepsake soul card was just appeared.

Yu Cang tried to walk a few steps, and the token soul card under his feet was also moving.

"Actually, it's a bit more spectacular once you enter the door, and other places are no different from other laboratories." Cheng Mingye said, "Let's go, I'll take you to look elsewhere...By the way, what you saw in the void Every suspended soul card contains a forbidden card."
