Chapter 1185 Secret Passage? Counting the Harvest (8000 Words)

"Brother, you see, we have searched everywhere in this building, but we can't find the underground secret room. Could it be that that old guy Yuan Zhi didn't do this?"

Li Tie searched for a long time but couldn't find it. He couldn't help but suspect that there was no underground secret room at all.

Li Yu did not answer him immediately, but walked around the first floor. There were even many holes in the wall made by Li Tie and others with electric drills.

But there was still no sign of a secret passage or secret door.

When he came to where Li Tie was digging the ground with an electric drill, he took one look and then squinted his eyes.

More than two meters have been dug, and the underground secret room has not been dug out yet.

Either there really is no secret room, or it is very possible that this secret room is very deep.

He even pretended that he was Yuan Zhi, and he might have hidden the underground secret room somewhere.

Secret door?

I just walked around and found that the walls are all solid and there are no hidden walls at all.

Li Tie behind him couldn't help but said after seeing that Li Yu had searched around but couldn't find it.

"If you ask me, brother, there may not be one. Let's not waste time here."

Li Yu shook his head and said, "I'll go upstairs and take a look."

As he said that, he passed the elevator and walked to the stairs upstairs, and was about to walk upstairs.

Sudden.

He stopped, turned around slowly, and asked Li Tie:

"Have you seen it in the elevator?"

"Ah? Elevator? No, there's a power outage and it can't be opened." Li Tie said quickly.

As he spoke, his eyes lit up and he said to Li Yu:

"Brother, you mean"

"Go get the tools quickly." Li Yu said.

This elevator looks a bit unreasonable and too big.

Such a large elevator is generally only used in shopping malls or hospitals.

Generally, elevators used in homes are no more than one meter wide, but this elevator is two and a half meters wide.

Li Tie quickly asked someone to bring the crowbar, and then came outside the elevator door.

Since there was no electricity, I had to use a crowbar to pry it open.

Li Tie and others took crowbars and struggled to pry open the two elevator doors.

Kakaka——

The elevator door made an unpleasant scraping sound.

After prying for a while, a gap of less than ten centimeters was opened.

Li Yu frowned and said to Li Qi next to him:

"Hurry up and ask someone to find a way to restore the power system of this building."

Hearing this, Li Qi quickly nodded and left.

Restoring power is not that simple. No generator was found in this building. It is possible that the power in this building was drawn from other places.

Seeing that Li Tie and the others were trying their best to open a gap of less than ten centimeters, Li Yu walked over impatiently.

"You go away, I'll come."

Li Tie and others had stern expressions on their faces, and then stepped back with crowbars in hand.

I saw Li Yu walking to the elevator door, then moving his hands towards the elevator door, one left and one right, and then pulled it to the side with force.

Kakaka——

In the shocked eyes of Li Tie and others, the elevator door was opened by Li Yu with his bare hands.

When it reached a width of one meter, Li Yu pushed to the right with both hands. After pushing to the end, he changed the direction and continued to push to the left.

Until the entire elevator was pushed away.

The scene in the elevator comes into view.

The elevator has a width of two and a half meters, a depth of three and a half meters, and an area of ​​nearly 9 square meters.

Elevators of this size are very rare.

Even better than some smaller bedrooms.

At this time, no matter how stupid people were, they could tell that there was something wrong with the elevator.

Li Yu walked into the elevator and stepped on the floor below.

Then I looked at the buttons on the elevator floor. There were only nine buttons, nothing unusual.

Li Yu looked carefully inside the elevator, and finally focused on a mirror inside the elevator.

His eyes are as bright as a torch.

There were gaps on the left and right sides of the mirror, so he fumbled to move the mirror.

But I still can't find the switch.

So he walked out, took the crowbar and slammed it on the mirror.

Bang!

The mirror was smashed, but it didn't hit the iron plate of the elevator as expected.

Instead, it was directly smashed through.

There is a hole in the mirror!

Li Yu used a crowbar to pull off the remaining glass fragments.

Then he stuck his head out and looked outside the mirror.

Dark.

Li Yu took out the flashlight from his waist and shined it at the hole.

There was a gap of nearly one meter between the outside of the cave and the elevator. There was even a handrail going down on the wall outside the cave. Li Yu took the light and shined it down.

There is still a height of twenty meters below.

Li Yu's heart moved slightly, and he knew that there must be a secret room.

The space of more than twenty meters below is enough to explain the problem.

It's just that he has never found the mechanism to go down, and there is no button to go down next to the elevator button.

How to get down?

Li Yu frowned. He felt that there must be some mechanism inside. Otherwise, what would happen if there was a power outage? Is it possible to climb out of this hole and then hold on to the handrail and go all the way down?

It's not impossible.

But Li Yu felt that there might be other more convenient mechanisms.

"Wow! Brother, this place is empty!" Li Tie came over, held a lamp and shined it down there.

Li Yu nodded, and then said: "Go down and have a look."

The mirror is one meter high and eighty centimeters wide.

Li Yu swept away some broken glass on the side to avoid scratching his hands when he climbed in later.

Climbed in, then held the protruding handrail on the opposite side with both hands.

Walked down step by step.

The dark tunnel looked frightening.

Li Yu walked down and climbed three or four meters, and there was still a wall next to him. No wonder Li Tie and his team had not dug anything for half a day.

Continue to climb down.

It was not until three minutes later that Li Yu stepped on the bottom.

He shone the flashlight around, and there was an elevator above his head, and there were two thick tracks opposite the handrail.

The space below was more than twice as large as the elevator.

Stepping on the ground, he felt a little uncomfortable, and he lowered his head to shine and found two tracks.

Li Yu followed the track and shone the light over it, and found another small elevator.

Studied for a while.

Li Yu roughly understood it.

This small elevator goes up and down on the track attached to the wall.

When it rises and sticks to the big elevator above, you can open the floor below the big elevator and enter the small elevator.

The big elevator above must have a mechanism to open the floor mechanism.

As Li Yu was thinking, Li Tie and his friends behind him also climbed down.

"Wow! It's so big down there! No wonder I couldn't dig out the underground secret room after digging for a long time. This secret room is so deep that I have to dig for ten days or half a month before I can dig it out! This old thief Yuan Zhi is really cunning." Li Tie said with emotion after coming down.

Li Yu shook his head and said, "Let's go in and take a look."

As he said that, he walked towards an entrance next to the small elevator.

Everyone was very careful, holding guns and keeping an attacking posture at any time.

After entering this entrance and walking four or five meters, a door appeared in front of them.

Li Yu hesitated for a moment and tried to twist it.

Unexpectedly, the door was twisted open directly.

After twisting the door, Li Yu shone a flashlight into it.

A huge picture similar to an air-raid shelter appeared in front of him.

It was nearly six meters high, about ten meters wide, and ten meters deep, with nearly two hundred bungalows.

There were shelves and supplies on both sides.

However, it seemed that the supplies had been taken away, and they looked a little flustered when they left, and some supplies were scattered on the ground.

Li Yu frowned and walked inside.

There were several rooms next to it, including toilets, bedrooms, and gyms.

However, they did not find Yuan Zhi.

Smash!

Suddenly, the light above his head came on.

Li Yu quickly turned his head and saw Li Tie said awkwardly:

"I tried to turn on the light, but I didn't expect that the power was not cut off inside."

Yu Lei behind him said:

"The power system inside is separate from the building above, and there is a complete generator inside."

Li Yu looked around clearly. He had searched every room, but there was no one.

Twenty meters below, it was hard to find this place, but there was not even a shadow of a person.

The supplies on this shelf are quite rich.

Various foods, canned food, solid alcohol, medical supplies, and even guns, purified water, and fuel

It's just that the quantity is not large, but if it is only for a few people, it is enough.

Looking at this shelf, if it was originally full, it is now only one-tenth less.

Li Yu walked to the sofa and saw a plate on the table.

There were still food crumbs on the plate, and there was a cup next to it, but there was no water in the cup.

This means that someone lived here.

Yuan Zhi must have come here.

But it is unknown whether he came here before the city was broken or hid here after the city was broken.

But Li Yu touched the table and judged from the thickness of the dust that Yuan Zhi should have come here within a month.

If it was half a year, the thickness of the dust would be more than this.

"Brother, the supplies here don't seem to be a lot, but they are complete." Li Tie walked over and said after searching a circle.

Li Yu frowned and stood up slowly.

He said to him: "Yuan Zhi is not here. He must have come down after the city was broken. There are zombies up there, and he can't go up again."

"Look for it, there may be a secret passage. He may have escaped from the secret passage!"

Li Tie was shocked and said: "Ah??"

Li Yu himself made a secret passage in the big camphor tree base, which can lead to the secret passage outside the base.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows.

Yuan Zhi may also do this, so that when the base is irreparable, there will be an escape route.

However, this escape route is too difficult to find.

In comparison, his escape passage is just a small matter.

He built this secret room more than 20 meters underground.

Even if a missile hits here, it can survive.

"Look for it quickly." Li Yu said again.

As he said that, he touched the wall with his hand and checked it bit by bit.

Knock on each place to see if there is nothing behind.

Everyone searched for more than ten minutes.

"There is a problem here!" someone shouted.

Li Yu heard the sound and hurried out of the room.

When he came to the long hall outside, he saw Jiuge at the end of the hall and said excitedly:

"It's empty here, come and have a look."

Li Yu walked over and knocked on the wall.

It was not that kind of dull sound, and it sounded like there was an echo inside.

So he looked around and wanted to find the mechanism.

This wall was not painted, it was all bricks.

Li Yu tested it brick by brick.

As a result, the second brick from the bottom felt a little loose.

Press hard inside.

Instantly.

The front wall began to creak.

The front wall moved to the right.

As the wall moved, a deep corridor appeared inside.

The corridor was only about two meters high and two meters wide, which could accommodate three people walking side by side at the same time.

Li Yu looked at the side of the corridor and saw a switch.

He hit it.

Swish!

The light on the top of the deep corridor lit up.

The corridor stretched all the way, and there was no end in sight.

Moreover, the corridor went down.

Yu Lei widened his eyes and asked, "Did Yuan Zhi run away from here?"

Li Tie's face was not very good, and he nodded slightly and said, "Brother, this is really possible, what should we do?"

Li Yu said unhappily, "It's not possible, but certain. What else can we do? Let's go inside along this corridor and see where it can lead to."

As he said, he walked inside without hesitation.

This corridor goes down, and there are even cement steps poured on the road.

After walking for about dozens of meters, the corridor suddenly turned to the right.

And it didn't go down any more, presenting a flat road surface.

Li Yu recalled that this Governor's Mansion was the highest position in the entire Northern Federation.

The underground secret room above, although it is dozens of meters underground here, may not be deep when viewed parallel.

So the corridor just went down.

After walking for another four or five minutes, Li Yu estimated that he had walked seven or eight hundred meters.

Although it turned seven or eight, he felt that the corridor was still heading east as a whole.

Li Yu weighed the backpack behind him. When he came down, he had someone prepare a gas mask and oxygen cylinder for him, but he hadn't used them so far.

"Brother, we've been walking for so long, but we haven't gotten out yet. Where does this tunnel lead to? I'll go." Li Tie said with some emotion.

Li Yu sighed and said, "Let's keep going. We've come this far."

As he said that, he continued to walk deeper into the tunnel.

He walked for another ten minutes.

At their speed, they had walked at least three or four kilometers.

They were still moving at a relatively slow pace in the front, and they were all jogging and walking fast in the back.

The further Li Yu walked inside, the more he felt the huge amount of this underground project.

To dig out such a long tunnel, how much time and energy would it take.

It's hard to imagine.

Moreover, he was sure that this tunnel was not only dug before the end of the world, but it was very likely to be dug bit by bit after the end of the world.

Just thinking about it, the road ahead suddenly started to go up.

"Go faster, the exit is probably just ahead." Li Yu said to the people behind him.

Going up means that we are heading to the ground.

Sure enough, they continued walking for two hundred meters and saw a round well in front of them.

There were handrails on both sides of the round well for climbing up.

The bottom is about twenty meters away from the top.

It seems to be covered by something, and it is dark.

Li Yu grabbed the handrail and climbed up.

Soon.

He climbed to the top.

A round iron plate appeared above, and there was a switch on the iron plate.

This switch should be to prevent outsiders from coming in rashly, and it can be locked below.

Li Yu saw that the state of the switch was open, which was enough to show that someone must have gone out from here.

So he pushed it up.

?

No push.

He pushed it again, and he felt that something seemed to be pressing on the iron plate, so it couldn't be opened.

If it were an ordinary person, he might have to go back and get an electric saw to saw the iron plate open.

But Li Yu was in good health, the kind that was as good as human beings.

So he used his feet to hold the iron handrail below. Fearing that the handrail could not bear the weight, he used one hand to hold another handrail.

Then he used all his strength to push his feet upward, concentrated his strength on his right hand, and pushed upward.

Boom!

The iron plate was pushed away by him.

As the iron plate was pushed away, there was another heavy object that fell on the floor above with a clang.

The top suddenly lit up.

It was a bit dazzling.

They stayed in the corridor for more than 20 minutes and were somewhat accustomed to the dark environment.

Li Yu squinted his eyes and did not rush to climb out.

He took out a water bottle from his backpack and threw it outside.

Clang!

He was not sure whether Yuan Zhi and the others were still here. If they were still here, they would be easily shot in the head if they showed up.

Throwing the water bottle was to test whether there was anyone above.

After the test, Li Yu put on the helmet mask, then poked his head a little and looked at the environment above.

On the left, less than a meter away from here, there is a tattered iron bed. This bed is very broken, the surface is rusty, and there is even no mattress.

On the right is an overturned carpet and a broken table.

To the north, there is a wall with nothing.

To the south, there is a door with a pair of broken shoes next to the door.

After seeing that there is no one on top, Li Yu climbed out.

On one side of the ground is the round iron plate that Li Yu just pushed open.

And next to it is a scrapped vertical air conditioner.

It is estimated that this vertical air conditioner was blocking the iron plate just now.

Walked to the window and looked outside.

I saw an ordinary farmyard outside.

Weeds were overgrown and the walls collapsed.

Li Yu took a deep breath, opened the mask, and walked out of the room.

Walking out of the room, there was a living room outside.

The old-fashioned ceiling fan was only half left at this time.

There was a black and white photo hanging in the middle of the hall. It was a photo of an old man, covered with a layer of dust, and some tripods for burning incense were placed below.

There were only a few sticks on the tripod that had long been burned out.

The surrounding walls were in tatters and the wall skin was peeling off. With the breeze blowing in the hall, the door of the room opposite made a creaking sound.

All this revealed a weird atmosphere, which made people's hair stand up after seeing it.

"Finally came out."

Li Yu glanced behind and saw that Li Tie and others had climbed out of the round well.

Li Yu thought about it, walked out of the hall, and came to the deserted yard.

There were a lot of weeds in the yard, but

He noticed that the weeds on the ground seemed to have been crushed by something.

When he got closer, he saw two wheel tracks.

At the end of the wheel tracks, he saw that there seemed to be a room next to the house.

When he walked in, he found that there was just enough space for a car.

There were even two tires on the wall.

Li Yu looked at the wheel tracks outside and sighed slightly.

Yuan Zhi ran away.

As for where he ran to, he didn't know.

This is a disaster after all.

But there is no way. If the uncle and his men had attacked Yuan Zhi when they left the Northern Territory, they would not have been able to escape unscathed.

Who knew that Yuan Zhi was so afraid of death that he built such a complicated tunnel.

At this time.

The intercom rang.

"City Lord, we have restored the power system of the Governor's Mansion. Are you still down there?"

Li Yu picked up the intercom and said:

"No, wait a minute."

He turned around and looked back at the house, a three-story building.

So he hurried to the top floor of the building and looked to the west, and he saw a corner of the Northern Federation.

So he said, "Send them out. We are east of the Northern Federation. Uh, about four kilometers away. There is a small village around here."

"???"

Li Qi was confused. She couldn't understand why the city lord and his men had gone down to the underground secret room and suddenly ran out of the city.

"City lord, how did you get there?"

Hearing Li Qi's question, Li Yu saw Yu Lei Jiuge and others in the yard and knew that this passage could not be concealed.

So he said, "There is a passage below that leads directly to the outside of the city. Send a car here quickly."

Hearing this, Li Qi hurriedly said, "Oh, okay."

Then, Li Yu sat on the roof and looked around.

This village should be the closest village to the Northern Federation.

There are only a few dozen houses, and there is an abandoned brick factory around. The brick tower that originally stood in the brick factory collapsed and only the lower half was left.

A breeze blew.

Li Yu frowned slightly. He felt very uncomfortable when he thought of Yuan Zhi who had escaped.

But now there is no clue and Yuan Zhi's whereabouts cannot be found at all.

Alas.

Soon.

Da Pao drove the car over.

After getting off the car, he asked Li Tie with a curious look on his face:

"Tie Zi, where is the tunnel? Take me to see it. I saw the tunnel before, or in the tunnel warfare movie I watched before."

Li Tie pointed to the bedroom inside with an expressionless face.

Da Pao ran over excitedly, and after seeing the bottomless secret passage, he kept saying "Fuck".

He was also quite interested in going down to see it.

Li Tie saw that Li Yu had already got on the car, so he said to Da Pao:

"It's been seen, quickly seal this secret passage, we are going back."

As he said that, he took Yu Lei Jiuge and others to seal the secret passage, but did not put the vertical air conditioner on it, but picked up the dirty carpet on the ground and laid it on it.

Da Pao got on the car and saw that Li Yu and others were in a bad mood.

After thinking about it carefully, he guessed the reason why Li Yu and others were not happy.

Since there is a secret passage, it is very likely that Yuan Zhi from the North has escaped.

Thinking of this, the novelty of discovering the secret passage suddenly dissipated a lot.

At this time, Da Pao did not dare to speak carelessly, for fear of offending Li Yu.

A few minutes later.

They returned to the Northern Federation.

Li Yu and his team spent more than an hour in the Governor's Mansion. Together with the more than an hour before, more than half of the cleaning work in the Northern Territory was completed.

Several people were sent to repair the gate of the Northern Federation.

Outer city.

Looking at the densely packed shacks not far away, and the grain planting area separated by fences on the right.

Some grain is also planted in the outer city of the Northern Federation, but the harvest is not very good.

But there is an area in the inner city that uses greenhouses, but the area is not large.

The weather is just right at this time. In the grain planting area of ​​the outer city, corn seedlings are pulled out, and the tender green makes people like it.

Li Yu looked at the green and thought secretly in his heart.

The infrastructure on the Northern Federation side is very good, and the walls are even higher than the big camphor tree base. Although there is no mobile gate knife, if you don’t encounter the level of zombie tide before, ordinary zombie tides are also easy to survive.

This place must be kept in my hands, otherwise it will be wasted.

Enter the inner city.

He saw Bai Wenyang and others building steps and repairing the steps under the inner city wall.

The northern territory hasn't been thoroughly searched yet, so he doesn't run around.

Lest survivors or zombies from the north suddenly appear.

Under Li Tie's strong recommendation, Li Yu went to the Governor's Mansion.

He was also somewhat interested when he saw Li Tie exaggeratingly describing how luxurious the Governor's Mansion was.

soon.

When he arrived at the Governor's Palace, he had just seen the first floor, but had not been to the second floor or above.

As he checked floor by floor, he also felt a little emotional.

The entire building was transformed into a palace by Yuan Zhi.

This building was probably built before the end of the world, and the cost was probably much more than what he originally spent on building the Big Zhangshu Base.

Sure enough, he is a rich man, and the place he created is luxurious.

but

It's mine now.

Li Yu looked at the large floor-to-ceiling window with undisguised satisfaction in his eyes.

"Brother, from now on this Governor's Mansion will be your City Lord's Mansion. Tsk, tsk, tsk, look how cool it is."

Li Yu frowned and said, "Isn't this good?"

Li Tie looked at Li Yu and couldn't help but smile and said:

"Brother, if you don't want it, give it to me, hehe!"

The cannon next to him couldn't help but mocked:

"Tiezi, you're drifting."

"Only Brother Yu can live in this place."

Li Yu waved his hand and said: "The sixth floor and above are reserved for me, and the lower part will be opened as a leisure and entertainment area for the personnel stationed here."

"Okay!" Li Tie nodded.

Then she said again: "Li Qi just found out the mechanism of the underground secret passage. It's just above the elevator. The screen shows several layers. Just click on the screen and the elevator below will rise up. Then there will be a big elevator below. It’s open and connected to a small elevator.”

"You can use the small elevator to land directly."

"Yeah." Li Yu nodded slightly.

"Then, what should we do about that corridor?" Li Tie asked worriedly.

Li Yu thought for a while and then said: "Modify the secret passage below and lock it with an iron door. This way you can go out, but you can't get in from the outside."

"In addition, those who know this secret passage today are told not to tell anyone about it. Violators will be severely punished!"

Li Tie was originally worried that Li Yu would directly let people fill in the secret passage.

He was slightly relieved when his elder brother said he would keep it.

Although it seems useless now to keep this secret passage, it is always safer if it can be used later.

Besides, it would be a pity to fill such a long corridor with soil.

Time passes slowly.

Li Yu stood on the roof of the Governor's Palace, playing golf with a golf club.

He will not.

But he is very strong.

The ball hit directly penetrated the curtain behind.

"Nothing to be embarrassed about."

Li Yu shook the golf club in his hand and felt it felt good.

"It should be quite easy to use this to headshot zombies."

With that said, he stuffed the club back into its original position.

Arriving at the edge of the roof, you overlook the entire Northern Federation.

As time goes by, everything that can be found is found.

The sound of gunfire also slowly disappeared.

In a blink of an eye, it’s two o’clock in the afternoon.

Lao Yi and others came to the office that was originally the Governor's Mansion and is now the City Lord's Mansion.

This office has a low-key luxury, with mahogany tables and stools also made of mahogany.

The decoration is also quite exquisite.

Li Yu sat at the top, looked at everyone and said:

"Have you finished the search? Let me tell you some statistics on the supplies."

Li Gang glanced at the people around him and saw that no one stood up to speak, so he took the initiative to speak.

"I'm responsible for counting the vehicles."

"A total of 5 armored vehicles, 4 explosion-proof vehicles, 12 military pickup trucks, 5 off-road RVs and 3 tanks were found."

"There are also 6 cranes and 15 excavators of various types."

"In addition, 34 pickup trucks."

"A total of 245 vehicles of various types!"

The words just fell.

Everyone was shocked, and the conference room was full of discussions.

"Holy shit, so many!"

"I calculated before that there were at least a hundred cars, but I didn't expect there were more than two hundred cars."

"Yeah, it's really beyond my imagination, but I really didn't expect that they have tanks."

"I heard it's in the underground garage. I don't know why they don't use it."

"It goes without saying that tanks consume so much fuel. How many cars does one tank cost? Although they have many cars, they can't afford them."

"Hahaha, fortunately we have an oil city, so fuel is not a problem."

"In this way, can we all be able to allocate vehicles to everyone?"

"It's impossible. It's too wasteful. There's no one person per car. The most is distributed to groups. The fuel will always be used up."

"Um"

Li Tie saw everyone talking.

The conference room was extremely noisy.

So he stood up and said, "Everyone, be quiet."

Li Yu breathed out, looked at Lao Yi and said:

"Lao Yi, you are searching the oil depot. How is the situation there?"

Hearing this, Lao Yi quickly stood up and said:

"At the oil depot, there are still 67 tons of aviation kerosene, 134 tons of diesel, and 56 tons of gasoline."

Li Yu frowned when he heard this.

This amount is not too much.

The amount of fuel transported from the Oil City to the Da Zhangshu Base is hundreds of tons.

It seems that the Northern Federation really doesn't have enough fuel.

Then he looked at DaPao and asked, "DaPao, you are in charge of the scientific research room. How is it over there?"

Cannon stood up and said:

"In the scientific research room, I just made a brief count. I don't know what many of the equipment there are..."

Li Yu frowned and asked Cannon to sit down.

In the scientific research room on the north side, Ma Di or Bai Jie will be asked to come over later to select the equipment that can be used and then transport it back to the headquarters base.

Li Yu looked at Yang Tianlong and Lao Xie. They were in charge of the warehouse.

This is the highlight.

In addition, he also heard that Yang Tianlong had encountered a tough problem.

So he asked:

"Tianlong, have the people in the warehouse underground been found?"

Yang Tianlong smiled and said: "I smoked them all to death."
