Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1198 588: Above the Clouds - The Pinnacle (4)

A stretch of Boundary ran through the grove in the garden, the Boundary itself was invisible, but the traces were obvious, with no grass or trees growing around it.

Boss Lu opened "Fragrant Words Tales," flipped to the previous page with an illustration, and shook it.

The cannon made by Yu Yaoming silently appeared in front of the two people, and the expressions of the man and woman in the illustration returned to normal.

"Will the cannon sound be too loud?"

Yu Yaoming shook his head and said: "There is no cannon sound."

Having connected all the equipment, Yu Yaoming took the remote control, stood at a distance, and pressed the firing button.

There was no strong light, no sound; from beginning to end, there were only some parameter changes on the dashboard.

Boss Lu looked at Yu Yaoming, and Yu Yaoming carefully compared the parameters before and after firing, saying to Boss Lu: "It worked."

"Did it work just like that?"

Yu Yaoming nodded and said: "In the direction facing the cannon's muzzle, there is already a passage into the wormhole."

"Is this wormhole created by you?"

"Of course it's not created by me. This wormhole already existed; I merely captured an entrance at a specific location and changed the shape of the entrance,

From the parameters, the entrance is two meters high, two meters wide, capable of accommodating a person of normal physique to pass through."

Boss Lu said nothing, Yu Yaoming said: "If you don't believe it, I can go give it a try."

He was about to walk forward but was stopped by Boss Lu.

Boss Lu opened "Fragrant Words Tales" again and found a page with an illustration.

The illustration depicted a bustling street, with a middle-aged man on the street, carrying a birdcage and walking birds.

Boss Lu reached into the illustration, opened the birdcage, and in the surprised expression of the man, took the bird from the cage.

He placed the caged bird on his palm, stroked its head, tickled its chin, and whispered a few words to the bird.

The bird responded and flew directly toward the Boundary, disappearing in an instant when it crossed the Boundary, leaving only a bit of dust.

Boss Lu looked at Yu Yaoming, Yu Yaoming said: "Don't worry, it will come out soon."

After waiting for more than ten minutes without any movement, Yu Yaoming said: "Maybe your little bird can't find direction in the wormhole."

Boss Lu shook his head and said: "This bird has been trained by me for many years; it is much smarter than ordinary people."

"That's impossible," Yu Yaoming shook his head and said, "The principle of human thinking and that of birds is different, which predestines that some things can only be completed by humans."

Boss Lu sighed and said: "Why be stubborn? This bird clearly crashed into the Boundary and turned into ashes."

Yu Yaoming said: "If the ordinary method went through the Boundary, this bird would indeed turn to ashes, but passing through the wormhole entrance, that wouldn't happen."

Boss Lu frowned and said: "Didn't you see those ashes just now?"

"Those ashes are different; they didn't fall off the bird's body. I have experienced similar things and thought these ashes came from the experimental subject,

But actually, these ashes come from the dust at the wormhole entrance. This dust has some basic characteristics of a wormhole, and is vastly different from the residue of normal objects being destroyed."

Boss Lu didn't want to argue anymore, feeling tired of talking with this person.

Yu Yaoming was very stubborn: "Birds easily get lost when entering an unfamiliar environment; it is ultimately not human, lacking human adaptability and response capability."

"You're saying that putting humans in there can come out?"

"In theory, yes."

"Alright!" Boss Lu pulled a rope out of the book and casually threw it.

The rope flew into the grass, binding Qin Tianjiu.

Qin Tianjiu tried to break free, but to no avail, the rope tightly wrapped around him, leaving no room for struggle.

Boss Lu pulled the rope, pulling Qin Tianjiu to the front.

Qin Tianjiu wanted to shout, Boss Lu raised his hand and wrote a prohibition word on Qin Tianjiu's face, making no sound come out.

"This is a living human; if he goes in and can come out, it proves you're right." Boss Lu swung his hand, causing Qin Tianjiu and the rope to crash into the Boundary opposite the cannon.

A cloud of dust floated by, Qin Tianjiu vanished without a trace.

After waiting half an hour, Qin Tianjiu did not reappear, and Boss Lu looked at Yu Yaoming and said: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Yu Yaoming lowered his head, looked at the cannon: "Maybe there are still some areas needing improvement."

"Improvement is not feared; we can take our time, why hold onto pride?" Boss Lu opened "Fragrant Words Tales," stored the cannon away, and the two left Yangjiao Garden.

...

"I hurriedly wave tree branches, grab a handful of sand to scatter dust! Neither far nor near do we have enmity or resentment, I wish to ask the respected elder to exonerate the injustice!" Luo Zhengnan brewed a pot of tea, sat on his recliner, listening to "The Black Pot," when suddenly he heard static noise by his ear.

Zzzlaa~

Luo Zhengnan adjusted the position of the antenna, and the static disappeared for a moment, soon sounding again.

He took the antenna out from his skull for a careful check.

"Is this thing needing replacement? But it's hard to buy."

After adjusting back and forth several times, Luo Zhengnan felt that the static was somewhat peculiar, noisy and harsh but seemed somewhat regular.

This doesn't seem like radio static.

PS: This static seems to actively seek him out.
