Chapter 48: Signs

"Come here, I need you, I need you!"

"Ahh A man woke up from a dream, sweating profusely, he walked along the stalactite-covered corridor to a metal building covered with mottled marks, the broken gate beckoned to him like the entrance to hell, he walked to the gate step by step, through the broken gate he saw a pair of white eyes with no pupils staring at him, calling to him.

"Nightmares?" Joey muttered, looked around, and then fell on the bed again weakly, looking at the bland ceiling with blank eyes, his hand unconsciously took out a broken crystal from his trouser pocket, and stared at it like a lost soul, and suddenly the eyes that he met in his dream suddenly appeared in the crystal and stared at him, and yelled at him: "Your uncle, free me." ”

"Ahh A terrible scream came from Joey's mouth.

"Joey! Joey! A powerful voice appeared in Joey's ear.

"Huhuhu, old Joe?" Joey opened his eyes and looked at the people around him in horror.

"Damn, what's wrong with you? Two days of coma? Old Joe looked at him worriedly.

"Two, two days? Two days? Joey couldn't believe it.

"Alright, Joey, don't go down to the mine, you can rest well today." Old Joe patted him and said.

"Huh? Kindness. Joey nodded.

Dura Tan Planet is a mining planet, the federal government found an ancient galaxy in the Jetratti star map, and found a large number of precious metals in this place that they considered a forbidden place, called Space Epiphany, which can be used to make giant space folding engines, with high purity, few impurities, no need for artificial synthesis, only light processing, and can be used directly. Many of the earth's mining groups and military enterprises have set their sights on here. Soon the planet became a paradise for adventurers on Earth, but none of the Cateratis of the Federation ventured here, claiming that the system was a forbidden zone, and that a demon was said to be buried, but no information was given.

"Old Joe, how's Joey?" A heavily armed miner led the crowd to stand at the entrance of the mine and greet Old Joe.

"That kid woke up, but he still couldn't give up." Old Joe jumped off the snowmobile and said.

"That kid misses a woman!" Someone interjected, and there was immediately a familiar laugh all around.

Old Joe smiled, shook his head, and walked to the locker room.

At the end of the day, Old Joe and Hank formed a team to inspect the mine.

"Hank, I remember you were in a group with him three days ago, why did you come back, what did Joey do?" Old Joe asked.

"Come to think of it, we went to the eastern abandoned mine to check the power supply system that day, and while I was checking the power box, Joey was gone, and I thought he was gone." Hank recalled.

"Eastern Abandoned Mine Caves? I remember that there seemed to be something about diamond, and the cost of mining was too high to give up? Old Joe recalled.

"Old Qiao, you weren't in the mining area here at the time, and I told you that this was not the case, when several explorers of the company were expanding new ore veins, something suddenly happened inexplicably, so that section of the mine was sealed." Hank said mysteriously.

"Let's go over and have a look." Before Old Joe could finish speaking, he walked directly to the tunnel car leading there.

"I'd suggest you look for the surveillance footage. Hey, old Joe, I knew you would. Hank shouted, and finally said helplessly.

The two of them got on the maglev rail minecart and drove quickly towards the abandoned mine cave in the east, which was 55 kilometers away. In less than twenty minutes, they came to a hole sealed by an iron door.

"Old Joe, there's nothing here." Hank pouted and said, "Let's go, we're going to have a drink tonight." ”

Old Joe looked at it and found that there was nothing abnormal, and then said, "Let's go, go back and check the video." ”

"You dead eye." Hank rolled his eyes. The two returned to the minecart together, and were just about to start, when suddenly a gust of wind was heard, and two pillars of light shot straight through the tunnel.

"Get out of the car!" Old Joe shouted, and Hank, who had just stepped up one foot next to him, stepped back suddenly, and with a bang, the minecart they were riding in was directly knocked into the air, and smashed against the rock wall.

"What bastard did it, it almost killed us!" Hank got up and yelled, "How are you, Old Joe?" ”

"It's fine." Old Joe stood up from the smoke.

"Let me see which bastard it is." Hank walked over to the driver's seat of the tunnel car and pulled hard.

"Hank, what's wrong?" Old Joe shouted.

"No one?" Hank said with some hair.

"It's impossible, minecarts don't have autonomous driving." Old Joe denied.

"Look at it." Hank greeted Old Joe.

Old Joe walked over and found a few broken white hedrons scattered across his seat.

Old Joe picked up a piece, and suddenly heard a voice echoing in his head: "Come, you are needed here." Old Joe immediately dropped the crystal in his hand, and the voice disappeared at once.

"Hank, don't touch this crystal!" Old Joe saw that Hank next to him also reached out to touch the crystal, and hurriedly stopped him.

"Woooooooo Hank had already picked up the crystal in his hand, and his whole body shook like an electric shock.

"Hank!" Old Joe roared angrily and slapped the crystal away.

"He's calling me!" Hank suddenly roared, pushing Old Joe away, his hand gripped a piece of crystal tightly, and blood flowed down his fingers due to the force.

"Ahem, ahem, Hank! What are you doing at TMD? Old Joe, who was choking on the dirt, coughed and yelled, but when he looked up, he saw that Hank was gone.

"Hank! Hank! Hank!!! The voice echoed in the tunnel, but no one responded to Old Joe, he turned to look at the sealed metal door in front of him, he felt inexplicable fear, suddenly picked up a percussion drill and drilled at the metal door, a violent spark flashed, the drill penetrated the metal door at once, giving him the feeling that the door seemed to have decayed, he carefully pulled out the drill bit, saw the red mist coming out of it, he felt a little white light coming out of his body, the whole person became hideous, and finally closed his eyes and fell to the ground tiredly.

"Old Joe, old Joe! Wake up, don't be lazy. ”

"Ahh Where is this? Old Joe got up from the bed, looked around in confusion, and found himself on the bed in the dormitory, and in front of him stood young Joey.

"Why am I here?" Old Joe asked.

"Old Joe, you've been asleep for three days and even missed a good time party. If Hank hadn't carried you back, we wouldn't have known something had happened to you. Joey said with a pretended emotion.

"Wait, Joey, what's around your neck?" Old Joe saw that Joey had two lanyards around his neck and asked suspiciously.

"Wow, old Joe, this is our miner's lucky pendant! You forgot about this? Oh, by the way, I heard Hank say you're missing. Joey thought.

"Really? I don't remember that we have this tradition? Old Joe struggled to recall.

"I've got another piece here, for you." Joey graciously took out a pendant from his pocket and handed it over.

Old Qiao was stunned for a moment, staring at the pendant, white with a little blood red, like a magic eye, he suddenly remembered his experience by staring at the crystal, and shouted loudly: "Throw him away, this is a gift from the devil!" ”

The roar startled Joey, and hurriedly said, "Old Joe, these two pendants were given to me by you." Don't you know each other anymore? ”

"I gave it to you? I'm going to give you something so weird? You see, that piercing was clearly drilled out. Old Joe's sharp eyes saw the strangeness of the pendant.

Joey was stunned for a second, and then seemed to forget the topic just now and said, "Old Joe, are you going to the mine today?" ”

"Joey, answer my question!" Old Joe shouted.

At this time, the door of the house opened, and a group of miners walked in and said enthusiastically: "Old Joe, how is your health?" ”

"Next party, let's have a drink with you!"

"Look at you are as strong as a cow, why are you in a coma for three days?"

"Old Joe, I'm sure you didn't bring a talisman."

"Old Joe, I can't go down the mine today!"

Old Joe was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the miners, who seemed to remember that he was not so popular, but as if a voice told him that he was indeed popular.

In the end, Lao Qiao decided to go to the mine, and he always felt that something was wrong.

When they arrived at the pit, Lao Qiao and everyone involuntarily came to the abandoned mine in the east to start construction, and all kinds of large machinery continued to excavate, and they worked for a whole day, digging a lot of space and gold, and everyone was very happy.

Hank patted Old Joe's arm and said, "Old Joe, you are really our lucky star. We dug so much as soon as you came. ”

"Hank, I suddenly remember that this mine is locked down?" Old Joe suddenly asked in a flash of inspiration.

"Blockade? In this case, the company has always asked us to mine this place vigorously. Hank affirmed. Several miners around him were nodding their heads in approval.

"What the hell is going on lockdown?" Old Joe asked.

"There's no cordoned off, huh?" Hank said with a suspicious look at Old Joe.

"No, I ...... yesterday" Old Qiao said and suddenly fell silent, so many years of experience as a miner, which place was just dug and which place was dug later, he knew very well that there were obvious traces of digging at the entrance of the mine in front of him, and the time would not be more than a day, and now everyone was saying that this mine had been developing, but why did the rock wall show that they only started digging yesterday? Amulet...... Yesterday's conversation...... Time in coma...... Old Joe suddenly looked up and found that every miner was wearing a necklace, and the exposed necklace pendant was an irregular white spar, which glowed red, like the fire of sin pumped from the abyss.

"Guys, take off the necklace, that necklace is influencing our thinking." Old Joe suddenly roared bitterly.

All the miners didn't seem to hear and continued to do their work, completely unaware of the need to leave work.

"Stop! You, you, Joey, you take off the necklace for me. Old Joe pounced, grabbed the pendant of Joey's necklace, and was about to pull it down, Joey moved, and a set of capable combination joint skills pressed Old Joe to the ground, and soon two miners stepped forward to tie Lao Joe's hands and feet.

"You guys!" Old Joe was about to scold, but found that Joey said to the others like no one: "Old Joe is not in good health, let him rest for a while, let's do it first." ”

The other miners ignored the fact that Lao Qiao was tied up, and echoed one after another: "Let Lao Qiao rest, it's not easy to do this and that when you're old." ”

"Old Joe, you need to rest more, let's keep going."

"Hank, you take Old Joe back to the bar first."

Old Joe felt that the world had become crazy, and they couldn't even see his state, so he couldn't help shouting: "I'm bound, let me go!" ”

All the miners suddenly paused, and all the brushes pointed their heads at Lao Qiao, their eyes glowing with cold white light.

"Demons!" Old Joe's mournful voice echoed through the mine.
