NOVEL WEB Chapter 38
Chapter 38: Mining? Block Off Restricted Areas?
Chapter 38 Mining? Block off restricted areas?
After such an outing, everyone was in a mood to rest, and they all stood guard at various windows in fear.
Xiaowu asked hesitantly, “Brother Qing, what happened just now?”
Ren Qing took off the big Miao knife behind his back and said, “Wang Wen was taken away by the mountain wolves, so I rescued him.”
“Well, I also killed a few mountain wolves along the way.”
Everyone looked at Ren Qing, and their expressions were a little surprised.
Zhu Ding swallowed, he noticed that Ren Qing’s clothes were indeed stained with blood, is that true?
Guo Qing muttered to himself: “How can there be a mountain wolf…”
Ren Qing sighed, thinking about how to explain it gave him a headache, and simply said: “Just kidding, in fact, Wang Wen fainted outside the thatched hut, he must have hit his head.”
Xiao Wu said with relief: “So that’s how it is.”
Only Xiao Wu believed it, and the rest of them couldn’t help looking at the Damiao knife in Ren Qing’s hand, always feeling that the edge was slightly dazzling.
They tacitly did not continue to ask, and honestly stayed at night.
After a long time, Wang Wen covered his head and woke up. The image of being rounded up by a pack of wolves was vivid in his mind, and it felt extremely unreal.
As soon as he was about to ask, he saw Ren Qing who was not far away maintaining the Damiao knife with knife oil.
The shiny blade surface reflects the light of the campfire.
“You’re awake, Brother Wang.”
Xiaowu quickly brought a bowl of hot water boiled in the iron pot that he brought with him. If the bowl was made of porcelain, it would have been in the thatched hut.
Wang Wen took a few sips of hot water after realizing it, and his body gradually regained consciousness.
“Brother Wang, thanks to Brother Qing for saving you in time, otherwise you would be dragged away by the beast.”
“I……”
“By the way, Brother Wang, why did you suddenly faint?”
Wang Wen opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer for a while.
With his experience as a prisoner for nearly ten years, he has more or less contact with the jailer. He understands that the jailer’s supernatural powers are vast, and he even masters immortal arts that are unimaginable for mortals.
Ren Qing easily killed the mountain wolves in such a dark environment, and I am afraid that he will soon become a member of the jailer.
Wang Wen admired Ren Qingsheng and wanted to kowtow to thank him for saving his life.
But when he saw Ren Qing put away the Damiao knife, he wrapped his arms around him and closed his eyes, naturally daring not to disturb him.
Ren Qing kept thinking about the weird beast, and the extra eyeball was obviously possessed by Song Rong’s magic.
However, since no trace of Song Rong was found, it may be that the other party did not deliberately command the mountain wolves to attack and kill, but an indiscriminate attack.
Could it be that Song Rong wanted to muddy the water and enter the restricted area for disaster relief.
Ren Qing didn’t think about it any more. He practiced the blindness method in a half-sleep and half-awake state, and before he knew it, the horizon had already lit up.
The bats that came out at night and day flew back to the cave, and the crisp birdsong sounded in the mountains.
After everyone packed up their packages, they hurriedly continued on the road.
They saw a lot of still bloodstains in the mountains and forests in the distance, and they were even more certain that Ren Qing was hiding.
Only Xiao Wu was heartless and walked in the middle of the team with a big iron pot on his back.
Ren Qing didn’t care about the weird eyes of others looking at him, but focused on finding his way and observing the wind and grass.
After a long period of training, the heavy pupils have made obvious progress, and even butterflies disguised as leaves can be clearly spotted.
As he went deeper into the mountains, Ren Qing could feel the chaos around him.
The neighing sounds of the beasts come and go, and occasionally a few broken beast corpses can be seen, and I don’t know if it has anything to do with Song Rong.
In the face of such a situation, the rest of the fire workers may not be able to arrive safely, and even most of the casualties may occur.
Under the fear of everyone, they came to the destination on the map.
That is the foot of an unnamed mountain, showing double hills like a hump, and you can see a deep cave in the northwest corner.
There is a military tent at the entrance of the hole, which is like a temporary camp.
Ren Qing could obviously feel the blood heart beat faster in his arms, indicating that the rest of the blood heart holders were nearby.
He looked up and down the cave, how could it feel that the entrance of the cave was forcibly expanded by a bomb, and there were gravel all around.
The pits and pits on the stone walls in the cave are definitely not formed naturally, and I don’t know why the jailer worked so hard.
Wang Wen and the others couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief, seeing the camp means that the jailer is nearby, and it will be much safer in the future.
Just as they were about to enter the cave, they were stopped by Ren Qing.
“Let’s wait at the camp, maybe there is some danger in the cave.”
Ren Qing could hear the subtle movements in the depths of the karst cave, which seemed to come from excavating rocks, and Song Zongwu and others should be inside.
He felt that if Wang Wen and several others recklessly broke in, they might be frightened by the terrifying appearance of the jailer’s alienation.
Wait, what does mining have to do with blocking restricted areas?
The rest of the people joined in, and now Ren Qing has become the backbone of the team.
According to Ren Qing’s request, they began to collect wood and set up tents. Wang Wen and Guo Qing were going to hunt wild animals nearby.
Ren Qing saw that everyone was busy, and the camp became more deserted.
He took out the brush and paper he carried with him, recorded his general guesses about Song Rong’s behavior, and planned to take the opportunity to hand it over to Song Zongwu.
Ren Qing came to the cave entrance after writing and said loudly: “The next is the yamen servant Ren Qing, who is here to report with the jailers.”
The sound of echoed in the cave, and after a while, calm was restored.
Ren Qing waited for a while and saw nothing, so he thought that Song Zong was all there, and was going to help Xiao Wu and the others clean up the camp first.
At this moment, a sudden frog croak came from the depths, and the sound became louder than the sound.
It seems that the source of the sound is moving rapidly.
Before Ren Qing could react, just as soon as he put his hand on the handle of the knife, the black shadow rushed out of the shadow at the entrance of the hole.
Ren Qing instinctively wanted to draw the knife, but he felt that the opponent was not hostile, so he forcibly took the Damiao knife back into the scabbard.
The rope brushed past, making a deep hole in the solid rock.
He looked intently, a purple-blue frogman was attached to the stone wall above his head, and the so-called rope turned out to be its tongue.
“Hey hey, it’s coming so fast.”
“Don’t worry, digging stones for a few days is really boring, so let’s loosen our muscles.”
The frogman climbed into the cave on all fours and disappeared soon after.
Ren Qing was a little speechless, if it were the other people, they would be scared enough, but fortunately, they didn’t notice the difference.
Not long after, footsteps approached again, this time Song Zongwu came out.
Song Zongwu’s four arms were holding the iron pickaxe, and his clothes were covered with dust, making him look a little embarrassed.
The two did not communicate much, so after Ren Qing handed the paper to Song Zongwu, he went to investigate the situation near the camp.
Song Zong read the paper impatiently, and then threw it into the burning bonfire.
Immediately, he turned around and returned to the cave, intending to discuss the countermeasures with the rest of the jailers.
Thanks to book friends 20200826155411000 for the reward.
