Chapter 167 Li Qingqiu's Secret Realm
After breakfast, Bai Yu took a short nap. When it was almost 10 o'clock, he arrived at the gate of the community, where someone was already waiting for him."Hello, Mr. Bai. I am Xiao Xue, Mr. Li's personal secretary. Please come this way."
A capable woman in a gray suit and short hair started a conversation and led Bai Yu to a low-key black car and opened the back door for him.
"Thank you."
Bai Yu didn't know much about cars, but he knew about force fields.
The moment he got into the black car, he felt a familiar wave. This wave was exactly the same as the wave of the protective force field on the arena. It could effectively resist the impact that exceeded the rated force. Ordinary low-level martial artists and small exotic beasts could not shake it.
Such a super explosion-proof car is not something that ordinary wealthy people can afford, from manufacturing technology to cost. Only a very small number of politicians can be equipped for travel. This is the first time he has seen it in daily life.
A few seconds later, Xiao Xue sat in the back seat from the other door, keeping a distance from Bai Yu that was neither too far nor too close, allowing them to communicate normally without being ambiguous.
"Student Bai, are we leaving now?" Xiao Xue asked politely.
"Just make arrangements."
Bai Yu did not take this politeness for granted. This group of people respected Li Qingqiu and treated him more as a task to complete.
"Then there's no time to lose. Let's leave now so we can avoid the traffic and arrive in about an hour and fifteen minutes."
"it is good."
The steady female driver received the signal and started the vehicle. At this time, a mysterious SUV behind also started the engine.
"This is Mr. Li's security." Xiao Xue noticed Bai Yu looking at the rearview mirror and explained.
"Mr. Li originally wanted to get up and pick you up in person, but the situation has been unstable recently. Riots have occurred in the neighboring city and the Wushi Prison in the suburbs of the North District. A group of powerful prisoners successfully escaped from prison. We are worried that these people are planning an attack, so we dissuaded Mr. Li from doing so. I hope you can understand."
"It's okay, it's good for her to sleep a little longer at home." Bai Yu affirmed.
Li Qingqiu's parents died in an unexplained accident, so the safety of Li Qingqiu, the only heir to the Qinglong Group, was naturally the top priority.
And a group of prisoners who were able to escape from the martial arts prison might be an ice knife driven by someone with ulterior motives, able to kill people without leaving any clues. Not long ago, Li Qingqiu also showed up in Huanglong City with great fanfare, exposing his security. He should now keep a low profile.
The black sedan drove all the way to the suburbs. During the drive, Xiao Xue gave Bai Yu a detailed introduction to Qinglong Group's main businesses, including magic equipment research and development and manufacturing, special vehicles, military equipment, exotic animal food processing, holographic virtuality, etc., as well as their current development status.
"Student Bai, which business of the group are you most interested in? During this period of time, I can arrange for someone to take you on a tour so that you can get familiar with it and join it in the future." Xiao Xue asked.
Bai Yu was stunned. He thought Xiao Xue mentioned the Qinglong Group to show off, to let him know the distance between him and Li Qingqiu more clearly, and to avoid the dull atmosphere in the car.
He had no objection to this. He was indeed taking advantage of Li Qingqiu.
However, what he didn't expect was that Xiao Xue still wanted him to join the Qinglong Group, and this was definitely not a decision made by the other party on his own.
"For the time being, I still want to focus on martial arts." Bai Yu expressed his attitude.
"That's fine, but the Federation has restricted the development of the group's ruins and the training of martial artists. In this regard, it will be difficult for Mr. Li to provide you with the best resources. You will have to pay a lot yourself."
Bai Yu nodded his chin in silence and said nothing.
Qinglong Group is the largest manufacturer of magic equipment and military equipment. If there are a large number of martial artists loyal to it, it will become an unstable factor at any time, and the Federation will definitely impose restrictions on it.
However, for him personally, the more obvious question is, Li Qingqiu seems to have been planning his future, how should he face it.
A few minutes later, the black car passed the "Private Territory, Do Not Enter" sign and entered a fork road that separated from the main road. After driving for more than ten kilometers along the forests on both sides, a large manor surrounded by fences appeared in sight on the green grass.
However, as they got closer, the black sedan suddenly shook, changed direction, and drove towards the sparkling lake in the distance. The SUV responsible for security at the back did not follow it, and continued to drive towards the manor along with the fake car projected by the hologram.
"Mr. Li occasionally shows up at the manor, but he mainly lives and works here." After Xiao Xue finished speaking, the calm lake surface suddenly opened up, revealing a deep passage for the camouflaged black car to enter.
There was no light in the tunnel, it was completely dark. Bai Yu could not sense the existence of the vehicle, and the concept of time became blurred.
He didn't know how long it had been, but suddenly a white light gradually enlarged in front of his eyes. When the white light completely passed, he blinked, his senses recovered, and the black car appeared outside the passage.
"We're here." Xiao Xue got out of the car and opened the door for Bai Yu.
Bai Yu landed on the ground and looked around. In the distance, there were mountains surrounding him, green as jade. In front of him, there was a small bridge, flowing water, and falling flowers. Everything seemed like the legendary Peach Blossom Spring.
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether this was holographic technology or he had arrived at a secret realm similar to ruins, but no matter whether it was the former or the latter, the fact that it could be turned into a private domain showed that the level of technology was far ahead of its time.
"Mr. Li is right there, let's go over there."
Xiao Xue pointed to a suspended villa built on the mountainside deep in the Peach Blossom Land, then pressed the controller in her hand. Two dragonfly-like flapping-wing helicopters flew out from the towering ancient trees on one side and landed steadily in front of the two people.
"These are all test aircraft developed by Mr. Li, but due to cost issues, they have not been mass-produced outside. Otherwise, the era of personal aircraft commuting will come."
Xiao Xue introduced that he straddled the dragonfly's back like riding a motorcycle.
Bai Yu imitated Xiao Xue and rode on it. The metal dragonfly's eyes lit up, its wings vibrated buzzingly, and it began to climb.
Crossing the stone bridge and flying over the bamboo forest, the real natural breath that hits him in the face tells him that what he sees is real, not virtual technology that deceives the vision.
"It seems that the passage is a space bridge connecting the secret realm and the outside world, which can be used for large-scale personnel transfer and material transportation."
Bai Yu thought to himself that he admired Li Qingqiu's intelligence. He could even solve this technical problem that had troubled the Federation for decades. He estimated that the reason why some people in the Federation were proposing to restart the "Bath of Fire" operation was also based on this.
Soon, the metal dragonfly landed on the top floor of the villa. Xiao Xue took Bai Yu and took the elevator to the living room on the first floor, but Li Qingqiu was not there. Instead, there were various meals on the coffee table.
"Student Bai, please wait a moment."
Xiao Xue went up to the second floor and knocked on Li Qingqiu's door. "Mr. Li, are you up?"
"Um~No, what's wrong?" A confused mumbling voice was heard.
"Student Bai is here."
"Hmm~ah?! Why didn't my alarm go off?!"
As he was talking, there was another sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets. "Where is the pink underwear I put away? I can't find it."
"You must have turned off the alarm when you got up early to cook." Xiao Xue responded calmly, "The underwear is in the second drawer of the second row of the cabinet."
"Where are the stockings? The black ones."
"Third row, third one."
"Wow, Sister Xiao, how can I live without you?"
"."
Bai Yu was listening to the conversation between the two in the living room. He could imagine Li Qingqiu suddenly waking up from the quilt. In short, this was very [early to bed, early to rise].
