Chapter 1125 Reaching an Alliance

A weird lunch was finally finished.

The few people who had eaten seemed to be drunk and yawned in a daze.

"Send the guests to rest."

Boss Jin waved his hands to several village women.

An older village woman collected the bowls, and other young village women helped them out of the house.

Boss Jin looked at the rest of us and said with a smile: "I will tell the kitchen to leave some food for you. When you are hungry, you can call us at any time."

"Thank you, Brother Jin." I said.

"It's okay, you're not a guest." Mr. Jin laughed, "It's almost dark, I'll arrange a room for you."

I was surprised: "It will get dark so soon?"

"Our place is no different than outside. The days are shorter and the nights are longer. One meal a day is enough to fill us up, and the rest of the time is spent sleeping."

Boss Jin stood up.

"I'll go out and make arrangements first. Someone will come to take you to your house later."

After saying that, he went out.

"The more you stay here, the more evil it becomes." Old Man Ge muttered with twinkling eyes.

The little beggar nodded vigorously, pulled Old Man Ge's arm, and then pointed outside.

He should be told to leave quickly.

Doctor Nie suddenly sighed: "Captain Xing and the others have no hope."

"What do you mean?" Old Man Ge was stunned for a moment.

"I will open the skylight and speak frankly." Dr. Nie did not answer him, but looked at me.

"I think everyone knows the purpose of entering this deep underground."

"Since we have the same goal, why not form an alliance."

"After we get the stuff, we'll share it equally."

Without the protection of Captain Xing and the others, she is a woman and a fat man with a weak body. She is really in trouble when encountering danger.

Therefore, it is the best way to spread the word and seek cooperation at this time.

I couldn't help but take another look at this woman.

She was always calm.

"What can you do?" I asked.

"We know where the gold is. After dark, get the gold and leave immediately." Dr. Nie whispered.

"What? Where is the gold?" Old Man Ge's eyes widened in shock.

"Haven't you ever doubted what the golden light outside is?" Dr. Nie said calmly.

"What do you mean, that is the light emitted by gold?" Old Man Ge was even more incredible.

"That's right! People in this village are in charge of gold. When it's daylight, they raise the gold. When it's dark, they hide the gold." Dr. Nie smiled lightly.

"Otherwise, do you think there is really a sun deep underground?"

I also frowned and looked at the oil lamp in the alcove.

"It turns out that it contains gold."

But is it really gold?

Gold itself does not shine

"Then, how much gold will it be? It will be such a big piece of light. Then it will be up to a few of us to take it away?" Old Man Ge asked.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way. You just need to help me get the gold. If you agree, you can start taking action after dark after receiving my signal." Dr. Nie is very confident.

I said happily: "I'm fine, what's the signal?"

I want to find gold anyway, and she has a way, which saves me the trouble.

"Three meows," Dr. Nie said.

"Then I also want to help." Old Man Ge said quickly, fearing that he would miss the opportunity to share the gold.

"Yes, let's go together tonight. But don't let the news leak out in advance!" Dr. Nie agreed readily.

It stands to reason that a bad old man like Old Man Ge is simply a burden at this time.

Perhaps, she needs the little beggar to lead the way back to the ground.

After a brief discussion, we will say no more.

We didn't eat or drink the food here. Boss Jin must be on guard against us. We have to be careful not to reveal our flaws.

"Guests, come with me."

Soon, a young village woman came to the door and smiled at us.

Under her leadership, we left the room on the fifth floor and came to the fourth floor.

"We have plenty of houses here. We don't have to crowd together. Everyone has a room."

The young village woman separated us and gave us a small room each.

In the room, there was just a stone bed with bedding already laid out.

"Guests, it's going to be dark soon, go to bed early." The young village woman looked at me with a smile before leaving.

Immediately after she left, three bells rang.

Dangdangdang——

As the bells echoed, the golden light slowly disappeared from the sky above the village.

The village darkened little by little until it was completely dark.

There was no oil lamp in the small room where we stayed, and it was pitch dark.

Staying in the house, there is nothing you can do except sleep.

I simply lay down on the bed and waited for Dr. Nie's signal.

But I took out my phone and took a look, and found that the time was still at 3am.

I sat up from the bed.

The mobile phone in the live broadcast room cannot be faulty.

I have encountered this situation before, on a hearse leading to the underworld.

"Is it possible that this is a place similar to the underworld? So, time loses its meaning here?"

That's not good.

I don’t know what time it is in the outside world. If I don’t complete the task before dawn, I will be in trouble.

"My dear audience friends, I am very urgent. Can you tell me what time it is now?" I asked to the screen.

"Boss Li is getting more and more interesting. Isn't there a time display on your phone?"

"I have a hunch that Boss Li is going to cheat on rewards again. If I remember correctly, this happened during a live broadcast before. It was the friends who told him the time through the number of rewards."

"Hey! Are current anchors already working so hard to get rewards?"

The audience enjoyed watching the fun without taking it too seriously.

"Seriously, the time on my phone stopped at 3 a.m. and hasn't moved since." I put on a serious expression.

"Isn't the time now 3 o'clock?"

"Yes, it's 3 o'clock here too."

After reading the responses from the audience, I was stunned.

The audience’s time stopped at 3 o’clock. What’s the reason?

It must still be related to this village.

The time in the village is different from the time in the outside world, and as the audience watched this live broadcast, time stopped.

Other than that, I can't think of any other explanation.

Although very mysterious.

But what happened during the live broadcast that was not mysterious?

Time stands still, for me, there are only advantages and no disadvantages!

I breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to say something to the audience.

At this time, there were slight footsteps outside.

"who?"

I put away my phone warily.

"It's me, the guest." A delicate female voice came from outside, and then, a petite figure walked in.

"Who are you?"

"My name is Jin Xiaomei. We met when we were eating. It was you who gave me the meal."

The petite woman walked towards me.

"I'm here to thank you."

"You haven't eaten anything. You must be hungry."
