Through the falling rain, as far as the eye can see, there is a huge building complex on the edge of the giant sinkhole. Obviously, the building complex is the mining base, also known as the base. In the base, towers rise from the ground, and various buildings line up in rows. On the roads built, you can vaguely see the vehicles and pedestrians passing by. At this time, two small black spots appeared in the sky. From far to near, you can faintly hear the "whistle" of the propellers. They were helicopters. In the air, two helicopters were circling down. On the ground, there was a lot of traffic, and the entire base was full of traffic. A busy scene. The construction area of ??the entire base is large enough. According to visual inspection, it is no less than the area of ??20 football fields. This does not include the area of ??the specially built airstrip. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Such a huge artificial building community appears in the depths of the primeval forest and the naturally formed giant sinkhole is a perfect complement to each other and shocking. People have to sigh at the limits of human power and the miraculous craftsmanship of nature After going down from Huangtou Ridge, about halfway down the mountain road, a small platform appeared in front, and a few figures could be vaguely seen shaking. Everyone walked all the way from the barren mountains and ridges. For the past three days and two nights, this team has not encountered any outsiders. Previously, when we were overlooking the base from the top of Huangtou Ridge, we saw that the pedestrians in the base looked like ants, which was not really real. At this time, at first sight of human beings moving up close, everyone was overjoyed and couldn't help but feel a little confused. A feeling of being apart from another world. However, when everyone came closer with faces of joy, they saw clearly that there were checkpoints and bunkers built on the platform. Those moving figures turned out to be several armed personnel holding Type 95 automatic rifles. The armed men seemed to have seen Ning Xiaofan and the others a long time ago. They all looked wary. Several of them were hidden behind the bunker, with their guns pointed at everyone. Only one armed man who looked like the leader was standing there. In front of the checkpoint, he looked at everyone with a cold face. The guide who was leading the way seemed to know about this checkpoint, and he seemed to know the leader. He immediately stepped forward and said hello: "Brother Zhao, you are on duty today." The man surnamed Zhao obviously knew the guide, and his expression was slightly He, slightly gnawing his head, said: "It's a small amount of money. Which team are you leading?" "The Xin'ao Group's team" "Xin'ao Group? Well, you know the rules, ask them all to show their passes. "Okay, okay, I'll notify them right now" the guide replied, then turned to everyone: "Everyone, take out your passes and get ready to pass." After saying this, the guide spoke fluent English again. repeated. Pass? Ning Xiaofan was stunned when he heard this. He had never heard that a pass was needed to arrive at the base? Ning Xiaofan felt confused and turned to look at Fatty and others. He saw that Fatty and others had already taken out their respective passes. The experts also took out their passes. Not only that, even Lao Wang and Xiao Shanzi also took out their passes. Show your pass. Everyone has it, but he doesn¡¯t. Ning Xiaofan had a bad feeling in his heart. At this time, Aunt Xiang saw that Ning Xiaofan had not taken out his pass, so she couldn't help but asked: "Xiaofan, what are you doing standing still? Where is your pass? Why don't you take it out?" "I don't have a pass." Ning Xiaofan I was a little confused at the moment. "No pass?" Aunt Xiang was slightly startled: "How is that possible? Didn't you attend the pre-departure meeting? There are checkpoints all around the base, and you must have a pass to enter. By the way, passes are issued to each team member before departure. Member, you didn¡¯t get it, right?¡± Ning Xiaofan couldn¡¯t help but smile bitterly when he heard what Aunt Xiang said: ¡°I didn¡¯t know there was a pre-departure meeting, no one informed me to attend¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t even get it before the departure? Didn't you attend the meeting? As a member of the team, you must attend the pre-trip meeting. If you don't have a pass, it will be difficult." Aunt Xiang's eyes showed a hint of anxiety. Ning Xiaofan didn't know the situation, but she knew very well in her heart that the guards at the mining base were extremely strict. To describe it as "highly guarded" would not be an exaggeration. Without a pass, you would never be able to pass the checkpoint in front of you. You must know that the Shennongjia prospecting project is not just an investment by Xinao Group, but several multinational groups at home and abroad have invested huge amounts of money, so that this prospecting plan involves the interests of all parties. The number of prospecting quotas is limited, and the passes are even more limited. Strictly issued in accordance with the investment ratio. With this premise, if you want to increase a quota, then I'm sorry, you can only exchange it with benefits. In this way, the pass becomes extremely precious. A thin pass has even sold millions internally. Sky-high price. In other words, even if the senior executives of Xinao Group want to enter the mining area, they must have a pass before they can be released. Otherwise, they can never even step into the checkpoint. Right now, Ning Xiaofan can¡¯t get his pass. This is no ordinary trouble. If he doesn¡¯t get it right, he will have to stay in front of the checkpoint, or just go to the checkpoint.This is the way home. "What to do, what to do, Xiaofan, this is troublesome. You can't get in without a pass. Even if you uh, the chairman comes forward, it will not be easy to apply for a new pass for you" When Aunt Xiang looked anxious and angry, she heard a weak voice: "Aunt Xiang, he I have his pass" That weak voice came from the little goblin lying on the stretcher. I don't know when she woke up? "Where do you have Xiaofan's pass? That's great, really, it scared me" Upon hearing this, Aunt Xiang couldn't help but patted her plump chest, looking relieved. Ning Xiaofan listened, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He was not stupid. From Aunt Xiang's words, he knew that not having a pass was a big trouble. The problem is that before this, the little goblin didn't reveal the slightest bit to herself. "Aunt Xiang, put my pass with his, take out mine too" The little goblin said weakly, While his eyes were turning, he glanced at Ning Xiaofan intentionally or unintentionally, and a complex color overflowed from his eyes. Just when the little goblin glanced at Ning Xiaofan, Ning Xiaofan's eyes were looking at her. As soon as he touched it, the little goblin's eyes flickered, and then he dodged away, giving people a feeling of guilty conscience. Ning Xiaofan touched her slightly evasive gaze, and suddenly thought of a possibility in his mind. Before that, she had been hiding the pass. Maybe it was a trick she wanted to use against herself. When Ning Xiaofan thought about the insidious tricks that the goblin might use on himself, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back. At the same time, anger surged in his chest, and he was furious. "This damn goblin is so insidious and hateful," Ning Xiaofan said. Hateful. Based on Ning Xiaofan¡¯s understanding of the little goblin, even though it was just a guess, he really didn¡¯t accuse her wrongly. That¡¯s right, the little goblin had this mentality of punishing him and planned to let this guy get to the ground and give him a good meal. During this prospecting trip, Ning Xiaofan acted calmly and pretended not to care, but who was the little goblin? Smart and cunning, Ning Xiaofan's little thoughts could not escape her eyes. From beginning to end, Ning Xiaofan had no idea that he was under the surveillance of the little goblin. Even he usually secretly checked it on the company computer. Information about Shennongjia and gems are all under the goblin's control. And the little goblin took no effort at all to master these little moves. He just checked the history records on his computer and it was clear. Of course, the little goblin was even more worried about the H website he secretly browsed. Precisely because the little goblin understood Ning Xiaofan's desire to go into the mining area to hunt for treasure, he naturally targeted him and figured out such an insidious trick to deal with him. It was extremely accurate and hit Ning Xiaofan's weakness. Thinking about it, Ning Xiaofan's mind was full With the hope of getting rich, I trudged hard all the way to my destination, looking at the dawn, promising to get rich, but in the end, I was blocked by a small checkpoint, and I couldn't get in. Once this sinister trick is carried out, Ning Xiaofan will not simply be defeated, but his hopes will be shattered, and he will fall straight from heaven to hell. It can be said that he is extremely sinister and extremely ruthless. Fortunately, although Ning Xiaofan guessed the evil intentions of the little goblin, the little goblin did not use this extremely insidious trick on him in the end. Otherwise, Ning Xiaofan would probably be crying without tears, and he might even think about strangling her to death After showing the pass, everyone passed the checkpoint smoothly. However, there is more than one checkpoint. At the foot of the mountain, everyone faces another checkpoint, and every time they pass a checkpoint, a stamp is stamped on the pass. Ning Xiaofan doesn¡¯t know what the use of stamping the pass is? After asking Aunt Xiang, I found out that it was a precautionary measure. According to Aunt Xiang, before the end of the prospecting plan, people entering the base are not allowed to run around, especially in restricted areas that are restricted to entry and exit, such as the base gate, the entrance to the sinkhole, and some scientific research areas. Stamping the pass can effectively prevent pass holders from breaking in at will. After entering the checkpoint at the foot of the mountain, everyone got on several minibuses specially prepared by the base and drove towards the base. The closer we get to the base, the tighter the security becomes. There is almost one post every three steps, and one post every five steps. Even the atmosphere becomes a bit tense. The outside of the base is like this, but I don¡¯t know what it¡¯s like inside the base? Ning Xiaofan looked at the heavily guarded checkpoint and the armed security personnel with indifferent faces and extremely strict inspections. He was secretly surprised and a little scared at the same time. According to his original idea, after entering the mining base, as long as the little goblin wanted to rectify himself, he planned to fall out with her, break up with her, and then find a way to sneak into the mining area to look for treasures. It¡¯s a pity that the ideal is very full and the reality is too skinny If you really fall out with the little goblin, then not only will you be unable to move forward, but you will be kicked out, which would be unjust.
