(); The island is dominated by rolling peaks, with a valley in the middle where Chang Ming has just arrived. Most of the people on the island live in caves and use this valley as a gathering place.

The ghost island itself is located in another dimension, and the people here can't fly out even if they have wings, not to mention that there are no material resources, so all kinds of restrictions have been made. Therefore, the only guards here are the team of god guards who were eliminated by Chang Ming. Their main responsibility is not so much to prevent the prisoners from escaping, but to maintain basic order and distribute some means of subsistence.

Gu Qingting led them to a mountain wall, where there were many large and small caves, Gu Qingting pointed to it and said, "We live here, a total of forty-five people, all of whom I have chosen." ”

He knocked on the mountain wall, and immediately hung down a rope ladder, Gu Qingting said: "Not all of these caves can be inhabited, you must choose some more sheltered and dry ......."

He spoke eloquently and was very familiar. No one could tell that he had been a pampered prince before, as if he had always lived like this.

Gu Luoli's expression was a little sad, and Bai Luting whispered: "Don't be like this, to be honest, our life here is quite meaningful." ”

Gu Luoli said: "Uncle is not young anymore......

Gu Qingting heard their conversation and laughed: "Xiaobai is right, we have a very meaningful life!"

In a few words, they had already climbed into the hole, Gu Qingting fiddled with the wall, the dark hole suddenly became bright, and he said proudly: "Look, this is what we built with our own hands!"

Gu Luoli's eyes widened, and her previous sadness completely disappeared, revealing a surprised expression.

Of course, this cave can't be as ornate as the royal palace. However, the floor is covered with layers of wooden planks, which effectively prevent moisture. There are also a lot of wooden cabinets on the surrounding walls, and even desks and chairs, which look neat and comfortable, and it is indeed a place to live.

Chang Ming turned his head to look at the wall. There was a set of mirrors there, and just now Gu Qingting turned the direction of the mirrors to refract the light from the outside and make it brighter.

Gu Qingting said: "This is made by one of our senior mechanics, and in addition to this, he also made other organs. Heating water with the sun's rays, don't look like it's an island, we can all use hot water!"

Bai Luting nodded and said proudly, "Yes, although there are not as many high-grade and durable materials as in the Heavenly Dome Continent here. But we've also found a lot of alternatives!" He stroked Gu Luoli's hair and said with a smile, "In addition to living, there is food to eat, I'll make you a big meal later!"

Seeing them covered in scars and haggard faces before, Gu Luoli had made countless imaginations about their lives here. But she never expected that they would still maintain this level of living conditions. Sure enough, as Egret said, they "had a meaningful life".

Chang Ming looked around. Nodding his head, he said, "No matter what kind of situation you fall into, you have to maintain your dignity and pride, which is good." ”

Gu Qingting asked them to sit down. After a while, Bai Luting really delivered cups of hot tea. The water is contained in a cup made of pottery, and the tea leaves in it float and float, exuding a fragrance.

"This is a special clay found by another high-ranking mechanic, which becomes hard when fired. He says that this method can be improved over time, and that the finished product can have many properties that are different from ordinary materials. He said in a low voice. Master Tao said that he would try to make a combat mechanism out of this clay. In this way, we can use it to protect ourselves. ”

He let out a long breath. Said respectfully: "This is all brought to you by Prince Gu." Before Prince Gu came, the people here were relatively decadent, and they fought all day long for some food, otherwise they would wait for death. ”

"After Prince Gu came, he told us that we are all mechanics, and we can create materials without materials! We can change the world with our own hands before, and we can also change our lives with our own hands in the future! Hahaha, well said, really good!"

A loud voice suddenly came from the entrance of the cave, and the more it spoke, the louder it became. But Chang Ming heard some strange feelings from these righteous words, and he raised his head to look over there.

It was a short, stocky middle-aged man, with a dark complexion and obvious characteristics of a Southern Yangzhou. He walked into the cave, his steps a little unsteady, and he almost hit the mountain wall. He stood still and glanced at Chang Ming, "I heard that you wiped out a Divine Guard team with a wave ......of your hand just now?" What did you get here for, and how did you violate the prohibition of purity?"

Gu Qingting said hello to this Nanyangzhou man, and introduced Chang Ming to him: "This is the Tao master we just mentioned, he used to be very researching on organ materials, and he didn't give up his research after coming here, and many of the materials we use here now were discovered by Master Tao." ”

Master Tao squinted at him, with obvious scrutiny in his gaze, obviously a little distrustful. Gu Qingting was so shrewd that he could see it at a glance, but he just smiled and watched, and he didn't mean to ask or explain in a hurry.

Chang Ming smiled slightly and said, "I wasn't sent here for violating the purity ban. ”

Master Tao was stunned: "Isn't it?

Chang Ming shook his head: "No, of course I violated it, but I didn't come here because of this." He pointed at Gu Qingting and said, "I came specially to bring His Royal Highness the Prince back!"

Master Tao was stunned again. He asked, "Go back, where do you go back?"

Chang Ming said: "Of course, I went back to the Heavenly Dome Continent. ”

Master Tao laughed: "You really love to laugh. I've all been sent to Ghost Island, how can I go back?!"

Chang Ming asked with a smile, "Otherwise, does Master Tao plan to live here for the rest of his life?"

Master Tao continued to laugh, but the laughter gradually turned to pathos. Smiling and smiling, he slapped the table heavily and said loudly: "Who do you say doesn't want to go back? Lao Tzu wants to go back in his dreams! But what's the use of just wanting to go back?

He pointed to the sky and roared, "Lao Tzu is just researching some organ materials, why do you say that I have violated the purity ban? The materials of the Sky Dome Continent, the energy of the Sky Dome Continent, why do you care how Lao Tzu uses them?"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, "Look at it, Lao Tzu will continue to research here, find better materials that can be used here, hit the Divine Creation Island, and bombard those traps!"

His voice echoed loudly in the empty cave, but the momentum in his voice was obviously much weaker than before. As he said the last sentence, he slammed his fist on the table, buried his head, and fell silent.

His hands and body trembled slightly, and heavy panting could be heard clearly in the cave.

Obviously he was quite excited just now, how did he suddenly become like this? Gu Luoli looked at Master Tao suspiciously, Gu Qingting was silent for a while, sighed and said, "You are drunk again." ”

Sure enough, there was a faint smell of wine coming from Master Tao, which was not too strong, but it could still be smelled if you sniffed it carefully.

Gu Qingting explained: "At the beginning, Master Tao was the most active person we had here, and at that time, we made some plans, preparing to snatch the ship and return to the Heavenly Dome Continent while the Divine Punishment Knight sent people over. ”

Chang Ming said: "Although the Divine Punishment Knight is strong, it is not too strong, and there are only two escorts. If the mechanics here join forces and can make a mechanism from alternative materials, it should be able to deal with it. ”

Gu Qingting nodded and said sympathetically, "Master Tao, they also think so. When the result was not fully ready, Xiaobai came over first. ”

Bai Luting came prepared, he hid some mechanisms, especially some miniature mechanisms made by Chang Ming, and the Divine Punishment Knight couldn't check them out at all.

There are two types of micro traps: exploration and combat, and all of the things that Egret Ting brought are the former. At the beginning, Master Tao and the others searched the Divine Punishment Island with a miniature mechanism and sorted out the basic situation here. Next, while they were preparing for action, Bai Luting began to explore Shenchuang Island.

Chang Ming suddenly realized: "You have seen the power of the Organ God?"

It's no wonder that Master Tao has such a reaction, maybe the humans of the Eternal Era still have to fight with the Trap Gods, but that is also in the case of long-term training and possession of a large number of high-end traps. The mechanics of the Heavenly Dome Continent are not at the same level as the Mechanic Gods at all. These mechanics on Ghost Island don't have enough materials in the first place, and there may be some hope for dealing with the two Divine Punishment Knights, but the enemy is a Trap God?

After coming into contact with the Trap Gods and seeing their power, Master Tao was devastated. If it weren't for the limited amount of wine here, he might have soaked in the jar.

Chang Ming nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Is everyone like this now?"

Before Gu Qingting could speak, Master Tao had already turned around angrily and asked, "What do you mean by this, do you look down on me?"

Chang Ming shook his head and said: "Being able to correctly assess the combat strength of both sides is also a kind of ability, and there is nothing to look down on." It's just that you yourself said that human beings can change the world with their own hands, and you haven't lost your ability, so why can't you continue to do it? Even if you may not be able to escape for the rest of your life, you are still a mechanic, aren't you?"

Master Tao looked at him, and his cloudy eyes gradually became clearer.

What do you mean by mechanics? Not only what they can do, but also what they want to do!

Some extremists do not even think about "what is the use of making this thing", but purely rely on their own preferences and a spirit of study to explore.

Chang Ming is right, although they have lost their personal freedom, and they may not be able to form enough combat strength to leave here in their lifetime, they have not lost the freedom of their hearts. They can still think, do, and realize the value of being a mechanic!(To be continued)R655
