Chapter 1096 Strange Boy

Wangcai's face was full of pride, and he almost wrote the word "hero" on Baozi's face.

I praised it, but my inner worry did not lessen because of its confidence.

Rats are very cunning animals.

I have to think carefully about what the old man said.

Don't let me dig a hole and jump into it stupidly.

"When the sun sets and the moon and stars align, look north under the moon."

According to rumors, the golden light only appears at night.

In any case, to verify the authenticity of the clues, we have to wait until night.

It's almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and there's still an hour before dark.

I simply sat down and took out the dry food to eat.

The two cats went to catch a few birds and ate them with gusto, even ignoring the beef jerky in my hand.

Dinner is over.

Dusk falls.

There was no sunset, the sky just got a little darker.

The light in the mountains is even darker.

Due to the high humidity in the air, a layer of mist slowly formed.

Everything is blurry.

The wildly growing trees are looming in the gray, with their teeth and claws showing.

Desolate and gloomy.

The air is getting colder and colder, the mountain wind is passing through, and the branches and leaves are rustling, but it seems that the place is quieter and more empty.

I dusted off my clothes and stood up. It would probably take a while before the moon came out, so I might as well take this opportunity to walk around in the mountains.

What if there is a new discovery?

I first walked in the direction of the abandoned mine.

I don’t know what the situation is like with the fat old man’s group.

There were so many people buried in the well, and it was like fighting against ghosts. It would be too difficult for them to try to rescue people.

So many people died in the accident at the same time, and the resentment was difficult to quell, so this mountain was particularly eerie.

Staying away is best.

Unfortunately, those who are blinded by money cannot see such a simple situation clearly.

The light is getting dimmer.

The fog is getting thicker and thicker.

It's almost dark.

I could see the location of the mine from a distance, and it was lit up.

It seems those people haven't left yet.

I returned to my original spot to observe them, and sure enough I saw them setting up camp.

Several tents were set up next to each other, and someone was lighting a fire.

The fat old man was wrapped in a thick windproof down jacket and sitting in the big tent. A warm bonfire had been lit next to him.

His face reflected in the firelight was erratic, and from time to time he stretched out his swollen hand to warm it up.

The female doctor and the middle-aged man in a gray jacket sat next to him and chatted from time to time.

The other strong men were busy non-stop.

Looking at the indifferent look, could someone rescue him?

Squinting my eyes, I actually saw two people lying in a tent.

The flickering firelight shone on the tent, vaguely reflecting their shadows.

Then I counted the total number of people, including the two in the tent, there were 12 people in total.

Think about it, if no one came up, how could they dare to stay at the accident site at night?

But having said that, I hope they just want to reopen the mine, not for gold.

Otherwise, it will affect my ability to complete the task, and I won't make it easy for them.

It's best if everyone stays in peace.

The camp was busy and orderly. After setting up camp, we started cooking dinner.

Dr. Nie is responsible for the fat old man's diet, which is separate from other people's food.

The faint scent of food spreads in the barren mountains.

I saw someone carrying a lunch box, walking into the tent and feeding the two people lying down.

Being able to eat means you are not dead yet.

I ignored them, climbed up a tree, and looked up at the sky.

It gets dark early in the mountains. It’s just 6 o’clock and it’s already completely dark.

The dark sky enveloped this area like an airtight pocket.

Logically speaking, the air in the countryside is better and it is easier to see the stars and the moon.

But at this moment, there are not even half a star in the sky.

"Maybe it's not time yet, after all, the genius has just darkened." I comforted myself, and at the same time looked towards the north side of the mountain.

It was dark and nothing could be seen.

"The north side belongs to Xuanwu Seat"

I was thoughtful and took out the astrolabe.

No need to turn on the flashlight, the stars are dotted on the simple astrolabe.

Except for the white tiger in the west, all the stars have been lit up, and the other three elephants have been slightly lit up, but not completely.

Looking back on these live broadcasts, there are indeed many places.

Only by finding the key can all the stars light up at once.

Bai Hu was found outside of live broadcasts. It seems that when he is not live broadcasting, he has to think of more solutions.

"The location of this live broadcast is in the north, under the constellation Xuanwu. Once the live broadcast is completed, another star in Xuanwu will light up."

I put away the astrolabe, looked at the dark north and squinted my eyes.

Xuanwu and Xiangongtang are inseparable.

I don’t know if I will encounter them during this live broadcast.

It doesn't matter if you run into it.

Anyway, come and destroy each one.

Delivered to my door, which saved me time.

I feel at ease.

Calmness is also built on the basis of strength.

"Who's over there?"

In the camp over there, a sudden shout interrupted my thoughts.

I turned and looked over.

I saw a flashlight coming out from the camp and heading down the mountain.

Behind the trees over there, there is a faint figure of a very thin figure.

Isn't it a little beggar?

"who?"

The two strong men holding flashlights were shouting and walking cautiously in that direction.

The man seemed frightened and ran away.

"Stop, don't run!"

The two strong men immediately chased after him.

His movements were quick and vigorous, and after a few steps, he threw that person to the ground with a flying leap.

"Who are you and what are you doing sneakily?"

The strong man grabbed the man, and when he saw it, the face under the flashlight turned out to be a slightly youthful face.

There is a row of tiny hairs under the mouth, which seems to have just grown. Although thin, he is not short.

"Where did this young man come from? What are you doing running up the mountain at night?" the strong man asked fiercely.

The young man twisted his body vigorously, trying to break free from the strong man's control.

"I'm asking you something!"

"You didn't build this mountain. I can go wherever I fall in love. It's none of your business!" The young man shouted loudly without any fear.

"Let go, you have no right to arrest me!"

"Oh, you have a bad temper! Do you want to steal something? I'm warning you, don't make such bad ideas. I've seen too many unlearned brats like you!"

The strong man shook his hand away roughly.

"I'm not here to steal, you are the thieves!" The boy rubbed his painful wrist and shouted angrily.

"You kid, you're talking nonsense, don't you deserve a beating?" The strong man suddenly raised his thick fist.

"Forget it, I don't know if he's an adult yet, why bother with him? Maybe he was a porcelain cheater who beat him and made him look bad!" Another person stopped him.

And turned to persuade the young man.

"We are not thieves, we are here to do serious things. But you kid, don't run around in the wilderness at night, it's not safe."

"You are pretending to be kind! I advise you not to take any chances with this mountain. The mountain god will not let you go!"

The young man didn't appreciate it at all. After sighing, he ran away quickly.

The two strong men looked at each other helplessly and walked towards the camp.

but me.

Then he jumped down from the big tree and chased in the direction of the young man.
