Chapter 256: Underground Gold Mine
Exiting the deserted house, Yan seemed to melt into the night, silently stepping through the roofs of one house after another, passing through this long-uninhabited dead town, and finally came to a dark wood.
Looking at the pitch-black woods, Yan reconfirmed the location where the demon had landed.
Jumping up, Yan quickly stepped through the tops of the big trees, and quickly moved forward in the dense woods, according to the previous impression, after a while, Yan came to the place where the demon landed.
At this moment, the bright moon is in the sky.
Through the moonlight, you can clearly see that there are two to three palm-sized footprints on the dead branches and leaves covering the forest, and the footprints are similar to chicken claws - there are four at the front end, one at the back end, and the toe claws are distinct.
"These should be the footprints of the devil......"
Looking at the footprints on the ground, Yan thought to himself.
Huangcun is surrounded by endless primitive mountains, almost impassable, only close to the edge of the woods near the village and town, because there were still people in Huangcun, there will often be people to chop wood, so this is not particularly lush, barely able to pass, but because the whole Huangcun suddenly disappeared, here is restored to the original again, but compared to the deeper woods, here is still relatively sparse.
But the farther away from Huangcun, the more the woods are close to primitive, in addition to the unknown trees in the forest, there are all kinds of dense and lush shrubs, it can be said that ordinary people are almost unable to walk an inch, it is estimated that only wild beasts can shuttle through it with their unique body structure, but for humanoids who are used to walking on two legs, the environment here is still unacceptable.
Even Yan, when he left the Yellow Village and came to the woods, faced with the dense woods, and when he wanted to walk through the woods to get close to the place where the demons had landed, he could only choose to pass through the treetops of the big trees, although a large part of the reason for this was also because it saved a lot of time.
After entering the woods, as Yan entered deeper, the surrounding woods did begin to become denser and denser, not to mention anything else, even from Yan's perspective from the high-altitude treetops, they could all notice the layers of luxuriant tree canopies clustered together, the dense foliage on them almost obscured all the space above the woods, obscured by such a dense canopy, in the daytime, the ground may hardly receive any sunlight, but when Yan approached the location where the demon landed, the surrounding woods suddenly thinned, It's as if someone has deliberately cleaned it up.
This is obviously very different from what Yan saw before, Yan is not a fool yet, and through the footprints, Yan is already sure of the landing place of the demons, this is it!
Standing in a small area that can barely be regarded as a clearing in the forest, looking in the direction of the demon's footprints, it is obvious that there is a formed road ahead, and the slender shrubs on the side of the road have been moved to both sides, leaving room for people, even giants, to move forward, this is definitely the direction in which the landed demons left!
Now that he knew the direction in which the demons left, Yan looked forward along the forest mountain road again, because he had landed on the ground, so Yan didn't see far, but under the hazy moonlight, Yan still recognized it instantly, the swarthy thing in front of him was obviously a hill that was not particularly high, and the place where the mountain road led directly should be the foot of the hill without accident.
Following the demon's footprints, Yan walked all the way along the mountain path, but looking at the hill in front of him that was getting closer and closer, Yan still couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
[What the hell are these guys doing here?] Could it be that a secret base has been built here? But it's completely unnecessary! ]
In Yan's opinion, demons should have the same level of science and technology as gluttony, and there is no need to engage in this kind of trick of "accumulating food and slowly becoming king", because compared to the earth civilization, they have already stood in the overlooking class, and now the only thing that restricts demons is estimated to be angels.
Therefore, Yan was really a little puzzled as to why the demon would come to such a wilderness.
Following the cramped mountain road, Yan came all the way to the end, and what appeared in front of him was a steep and rugged mountain, and the footprints of the demons ended there.
[Could it be ......]
There was no way out, but looking at the mountain in front of him that was overgrown with weeds and revealing pieces of black rocks, Yan couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.
Slowly stretching out his hand towards the craggy black rock in front of him, Yan's hand actually sank directly into the rock.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Yan's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Sure enough, as he expected, it seemed that there was no way out in front of him, but in fact, it was some kind of obstruction, there was a hole in this mountain, and the demons had entered the cave, so the footprints would suddenly disappear in front of the mountain.
Although he already knew where the demons had finally entered, Yan did not dare to act rashly, because he did not know what the cave was like, whether there were demons guarding it, and how many demons existed.
So in the end, Yan decided to use a necromancer to enter the exploration path first, and then sneak in.
The dark power like black smoke rose from inside Yan's black robe, and finally condensed into a crow with a pitch-black body and eyes as scarlet as jewels, which was none other than the Necromantic Crow!
"Go!"
With a flick of his hand, the necromancer flapped its wings and flew through the black "rock" and into the cave.
Yan leaned sideways against the craggy mountain, closed his eyes slightly, and connected his vision with the vision of the necromancer, and with the help of the necromancer's vision, everything in front of him appeared in front of his eyes.
The dim cave is nearly five or six meters high up and down, and the surrounding cave walls are very smooth, which is not naturally formed at first glance, and the cave walls on both sides are inlaid with spherical devices, exuding light and providing light for the cave.
Manipulating the necromancer all the way to the deeper part of the cave, I don't know how far it flew, the cramped cave is almost at the end, and above the wall of the cave entrance at the end of the cave, UU is reading a book A stretched shadow is constantly twisting.
There are creatures inside, and if nothing else, they should be demons!
Because it is a necromancer, that is, a crow in the state of a spirit body, there is no sound when the necromancer flies, and although it can be detected by the naked eye, it is undoubtedly almost impossible to detect the necromancer that looks like a shadow with the naked eye in this dim cave.
Carefully moving to the entrance of the cave, Yan manipulated the necromancer to cling to the wall, carefully hiding his figure, and poking his gaze out of the hole.
Outside the entrance of the cave, it is no longer a cramped cave, but a wide cave!
In the cave, more than a dozen tall demons were waving their hoes and banging on the cave, and Yan could clearly see that pieces of shining golden light had been dug out of the cave walls, and after they fell, they were picked up by the demons.
"That's ...... Gold?! ”
Although neither Cang He nor Yan in the incarnation of gods and demons nor Bai He had ever seen the primordial gold mine that had just been excavated with their own eyes, what else could that glittering, golden thing be besides gold?
Besides, even if he didn't know about the gold mine, in the middle of the cave, the black device that stood like a blast furnace, and the brick-like object that spit out after being thrown into the gold mine by the demon next to him, the gold brick, Yan had not seen it on TV!
Is there a gold mine here? But what good is gold to demons? Could it be that they want to buy off heads of state, but I'm afraid that this is not enough, right?
Looking at the demons who were busy mining in the cave, Yan couldn't help but think of ten thousand whys in his heart.
