246. Go mining
In the early morning of the second day, Luo Chen changed into a combat uniform in the tent, after all, it was safer to wear a combat uniform in this wild environment, at least there was no need to worry about insects crawling into the clothes along the cuffs.
She opened the curtain of the tent and walked out, but as soon as she walked out, she collided with Gao Xiaohong, fortunately she reacted quickly, otherwise the heads of the two would have collided together.
Gao Xiaohong put his head into Luo Chen's tent and took a hard breath and asked, "Why do I smell a smell of braised pork here from you" It was so fragrant, he smelled it outside when he passed by just now.
Luo Chen pressed his head and pushed him out, "The nose is very smart, it's braised pork." With that, he turned around and closed the door of the tent.
"You don't feel greasy when you eat braised pork in the morning." Gao Xiaohong's eyes kept staring at Luo Chen's tent, as if he wanted to see through the tent with his eyes.
"I'm glad you did." The tent is too poor at insulating smells, so if you want to eat secretly in the future, you should go into the manor to eat.
"At breakfast, the boss told me to ask you, if they are going to mine collectively today, you will go, if you go, wait for him at the gate of the camp. I don't know what the boss thinks, what is the mining asking you to do" Gao Xiaohong scratched his head and was very puzzled, and everyone who heard this was stunned.
"I'm afraid you haven't forgotten who beat up your boss yesterday." After Luo Chen finished speaking, he walked towards the gate of the camp.
Gao Xiaohong slapped his forehead, "Yes, why did you forget this, your appearance is so deceptive, people subconsciously treat you as a child, no, you are originally a child, a little monster wearing the skin of a child." "Putting their sledgehammer down isn't a monster, it's something.
"I guessed you'd come."
When Bai Xuxiao saw Luo Chen coming, he handed her a metal pickaxe and a small rattan basket, both of which were smaller than those held by the others around her.
Luo Chen looked at Bai Xuxiao suspiciously after taking the tool, she felt that today's Bai Xuxiao was not as stiff as yesterday when facing her.
"I am a gold attribute, and metal remodeling is very easy for me, as for this small back basket, I asked my classmates with wood attributes to help make it." Although his classmates promised to help him make them for free, he still gave him a pack of snacks in exchange.
"Thank you then."
Luo Chen carried the small basket behind her back, and weighed the weight of the pickaxe very satisfied, so she took out a bag of snacks from her backpack and handed it over, you must know that now snacks here can be regarded as a good thing with no price.
Bai Xuxiao looked at the snack held in front of him and shook his head a little funny: "No need, it's compensation for my misunderstanding of you yesterday." ”
"The misunderstanding has been resolved, and I also beat you up to settle it." Luo Chen didn't want to talk to him more, so he directly stuffed the snack into his arms, don't want her to owe favors.
"Boss, you don't want it, you can give it to me, it's not for nothing, I'll exchange the jerky I saved with you." Gao Xiaohong's eyes were shining as he stared at the snacks in Bai Xuxiao's arms, eager to pounce on them and grab them.
"No." Bai Xuxiao quickly put the snacks into the space, this thing can not only satisfy cravings, but also be used as an exchange chip.
They were not far from the mine, and they could walk for half an hour, Liu Zhi walked at the front of the line to open the way, and the small star beasts that occasionally sprang out from the side of the road were solved by a few people walking in the front row before they could make a move.
After putting away the prey, Luo Chen found that the blood stains left on the ground had been dealt with, and his technique was very skillful.
Bai Xuxiao accompanied Luo Chen in the middle of the team at this time, and when he saw Luo Chen staring at the people in front of him, he said loudly: "It's not the first time we've walked this road, so we won't encounter too many star beasts, you don't have to worry." ”
Luo Chen nodded calmly and did not speak.
Bai Xuxiao suddenly thought of something, scratched his face in embarrassment and twisted his head to the side.
The mines are quiet, the big machines have stopped working, and they have to make sure they have enough power stones to withstand the disaster, while the miners are not going to the mines to save their energy, because the amount of labor will increase the amount of food.
There are no fences in the mine, only a few metal columns are evenly arranged around the mine, which is a device to prevent the Zerg from invading the human living area.
An old man with a thick face and gray hair sits in front of an arch-like device and snoozes.
"Uncle Qiang, we're going to go to the mine today."
Liu Zhi stepped forward and put the corpses of the three star beasts he had hit on the road on the table beside Uncle Qiang.
Uncle Qiang opened his eyes and looked at everyone, and when he saw Luo Chen in the crowd, he spoke: "What our leader said always counts, as long as you provide twenty medium-sized star beasts, you can send a child over." ”
"We appreciate Boss Shi's kindness, but the materials sent to everyone are not enough, and these children don't want to be separated, so they have been dragging it like this, and after a long time, they will get used to it, and even the youngest ones have been taken out by me for exercise." Liu Zhi said and took out another cigarette and handed it to the old man.
"Understand, children, they like to play together, and no one can do without them." Uncle Qiang took the cigarette with a smile in his eyes, put it under his nose and took a deep breath and said: "Go to the No. 26 Mine Cave, no one has been in the mine for a long time, and those bugs have started to make noise again." ”
After bidding farewell to Uncle Qiang, Liu Zhi led everyone through the arch into the mining area, and followed the instructions on the side of the road to the No. 26 mine.
Luo Chen poked Bai Xuxiao and asked, "Why are there so many mines," she saw the number forty-seven mine sign not far away.
"It's not much, this mine is a new mine, there are only about a hundred mines, and there is an area number in front of the sign of the old mine." Bai Xuxiao lowered his voice and closed it as he walked.
"Don't you use machines for mining?"
The inside of the mine is not dark, and the luminous stones inlaid on the walls bring light to the underground passage, but Luo Chen did not see a large mining machine along the way.
"Some ores can't be mined by machines, and the magnetic fields generated during mineral episodes make it impossible for machines to operate here. The mine we are in now is a marble mine, which releases an energy that interferes with the operation of metal machines, and any machine used for digging is not made of metal. Bai Xuxiao took out a cloud crystal ore from the space and handed it to Luo Chen.
The marble ore is very beautiful, as if it has been removed from the sky and frozen in ice crystals.
"Then can we absorb the marble to increase the botanical armor properties, after all, the energy it releases before processing can interfere with the operation of the machine." Luo Chen brought the cloud crystal ore to his eyes to watch the clouds and mist flow in the ore.
"Smart, so the first piece of ore we dig is our own, the second piece belongs to the left-behind students in the camp, and the third piece is used for exchange, until we make up the amount of exchange, and then the ore we dig belongs to us." Bai Xuxiao smiled appreciatively at Luo Chen.
