Most of the miners had already gone to bed so late, and this person was obviously an exception. He smiled at Tie Huan and raised his palm towards Tie Huan, who saw a sharp knife in his palm, and then the middle-aged man put on his winter hat and turned to walk towards a dirt road covered with crushed ice.

The middle-aged man hinted at his identity, a member of the Sharp Knife Group.

Tie Huan didn't speak, just followed him. The man will take him where he needs to go.

He wore soft leather boots, and he didn't make much noise when he stepped on the ice. This is specially prepared for him by the golden mouse, and the sole of the boot is a special soft leather engraved with lines, so he walks quietly and will not fall because of slippery.

The middle-aged man soon turned to a fork in the road where the lights could not shine, and there was an orange half-moon in the sky, relying on its guidance, the middle-aged man continued to lead Tie Huan towards the inside of the mining area.

The mines here don't look much different, Tie Huan silently remembered the route, and after turning five or six forks, the middle-aged man took him to the door of a mine that was blocked for more than a while, and then he opened his mouth to talk to him, and his voice was very low: "This is the place where you want to go in, I only saw him go in alone." What you want to say and do with him is your business, and it has nothing to do with us. I've never brought you here, and we haven't seen each other today. ”

"Thank you. Tie Huan nodded, turned around and took a closer look at the cave in front of him.

The entrance to the cave was blocked by piles of huge stones, which did not look like they had been created by the collapse of the mountain, but rather as if they had been moved to the entrance of the cave, but fortunately there was a small opening, just enough for a person to burrow into it sideways.

But the cave was pitch black, and if there was no light, it would be like a blind man when he entered. Even though he had great sense, he still didn't know anything about the inner workings of the mine.

The middle-aged man saw his doubts, took out a piece of paper from the bag at his waist, and lit a fire. "That's the general situation here, and it's going to help you. ”

Tie Huan took it, it was a parchment map, on which the internal structure of the mine was drawn with scribbled lines, from the entrance of the cave, there was a three-way intersection, the left and right sides of the road did not extend for much to draw a "×", the middle road is very long, if you go down, it is another fork in the road......

"Take this fire fold, this picture is just what we know before. The middle-aged man couldn't help but look him up and down, his eyes were meaningful, as if this was the last time the two met. "There is a motto in the Golden Needle, and you better remember: no accident is the biggest accident. ”

After saying this, the middle-aged man quickly retreated. The moonlight stretched his blue-black figure long, and he walked farther and farther away, until at last he saw the white hat on his head swaying in the blurred wind and snow.

Tie Huan didn't sense the presence of anyone else on the way, and the members of the Sharp Knife Team were obviously very good at controlling their qi so as not to be detected.

The people of the Golden Needle Society repeatedly reminded him that this operation was very dangerous. Obviously, they know a lot more about Xun Zhou than he does. He suddenly wondered if he was being too hasty. It seems that the Golden Needle Society is not as idle as he initially thought, they are well aware of the crisis and well prepared. In most cases, the Golden Needle will have enough power to take out the enemy, as they have always done. They followed Xun Zhou, analyzed him, and grasped everything about him as much as possible, but they didn't do anything, but informed others of the news and went on an adventure.

Are they really afraid of Xun Zhou's status as a national teacher or a great elder of the temple? Or is this a trap at all, the purpose is just to kill him?

Tie Huan looked at the cave that was as black as death, pinched the map in his hand, and held the fire fold in the other hand, and leaned sideways through the small door. If Xun Zhou planned to open a realm portal here, then even if it was a place of death, he couldn't hesitate in the slightest, let alone take half a step back. Xun Zhou may have the unexpected power to open a door again in a short period of time, bringing filthy evil and suffocating death from the Boundless Abyss to the mortal realm, destroying our world and our faith...... I will do everything in my power to stop him.

The mine was filled with an unpleasant smell, something similar to the pungent smell of sulfur, the ** smell of fruits and vegetables, and the fishy smell emitted by dead fish, which made Tie Huan pinch his nose. The air circulation is very poor, and the darkness that makes it seem dangerous to see the unpleasant smell.

Tie Huan walked cautiously, his soft leather boots stepping over puddles of soft mud or bulging gravel from time to time, his hands brushing over the walls of the cave, and a slimy feeling that he smelled, like the juice left behind by some animal or plant. It's not like he's never seen a mine, but it's like a post-disaster scene, messy, filthy and filthy.

He estimated the distance, and walked about half an arrow, and the mine was probably five or six arrows deep, or more. This kind of excavation work is a huge project, and the laborers of Gaoqiu Town come and go very frequently, and I don't know how many poor boxers sweat and bleed here, and even lose their lives due to the collapse of the rock wall. Even in the prosperous scene of King Ren's benevolent government and the prosperity of the people of the country, the life of the people at the bottom is still unimaginably hard and difficult.

He kept a high level of attention at all times, perceiving this unknown darkness, and at the same time paying attention to hiding his aura. Xun Zhou has a strong sense of perception, and he may expose himself if he is not careful. Suddenly, he sensed a nearby source of air moving.

It was coming from behind me, in the direction of the hole. There was more than one, two people. The two were moving much faster than he was. He looked back and saw no light.

He walked slowly because he didn't light the fire, just by his perception and memory of the map, and the two men kept moving as fast as if they were daylight.

He stopped, secretly accumulating air. The other party did not deliberately hide, maybe they did not have such ability, but this does not mean that they are not strong enough.

It's closer. They stopped. Tie Huan is ready to go. "Great Elder, is that you?" he heard a familiar voice.

Elf Rees.

"Reese, Golini, are you?" Elves have excellent night vision, no wonder they don't need lighting.

"Haha, Great Elder, we meet again. Golini's voice sounded very intimate at the moment.

"Didn't you get on the Strongbow Reese, why did you come back again?"

"Mission. "The elves maintain a characteristic calm tone," said Fano, who wanted to stay if it wasn't for sending Marco home and giving the news. Knowing that the enemy is right in front of you, leaving is a retreat, which is not the style of the Jungle Association. So I changed my mind and stayed. ”

"Rees was going to report to the Elven Grand Elder so that we could most likely get reinforcements. "After spending time with us humans, Reese fell in love with adventure. You see, that's the beauty of us human beings, we can always pass on the bad things to others. ”

The blonde and blue-eyed Kamon people have an optimism that ordinary people can't match, and they are still in the mood to joke in such a dangerous time. Tie Huan suddenly found that his heart was full of sorrow and sorrow, and his mind was full of heavy things such as death and catastrophe. Fear inspires courage, but optimism brings more.

"You found the Golden Mouse?"

"No, he found me. Golini's reply disgusted him with the Golden Mouse, "After he sent you away, he went to the Blue Lighthouse and told me that you were about to risk your life." ”

"So he told you to take the risk. "This slippery ghost who is greedy for life and afraid of death, knowing that the disaster is coming, still hides behind and lets others charge, anyway, it is not he who dies in front.

Golini chuckled, "Great Elder, the fear of death is not a sin. The Golden Rat at least gave us important information, and he could have done otherwise. He was even ready to leave the Golden Needle Society. ”

He just didn't want to die in the clutches of the devil. "Then sooner or later he will leave the dragon. ”

"He knows more about the crisis than we do, but doesn't tell us all about it. It seems that he has no faith in the Golden Needle, but is afraid of it. But he can't be considered a bad person, Great Elder. ”

It's just not the worst. A little bit of conscience, a little bit of courage. "A lot of people can't be considered bad, but they don't help in the way of peace. When danger comes, they do not come forward, because the evil forces grow faster because of them. ”

"The Golden Rat was going to leave with Fanoris, he wanted to seek our protection, and even planned to become a member of the Jungle Society. But he still stayed, conveyed Xunzhou's news to you, and brought you here. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have found this place. Golini's words made Tie Huan feel a little surprised, "Great Elder, good and bad are not what we need to consider. Venian taught me: Defend the balance, protect the weak. We are not protecting the strong and capable, but the incompetent and the weak, who need us. ”

What they need is not protection, but guidance, the right guidance. But he didn't want to argue with Golini, and now was not the time to argue.

"Alright, no matter the Golden Mouse, let's go in. Great Elder. ”

Two more reinforcements isn't a bad thing, but in the end, it could be two more corpses. "Go forward, and you may not return. ”

"That's why we're here. If we don't move forward, I'm afraid all of us will die and not live. "Reese, that's the adventure you love, right? I was an adventurer by nature. We all have a mission, and mission is faith, and that's what Venian said. I know every moment what I'm living for. ”

He strode forward, "Let's go, guys, we're mortals, but now it's time for us to be heroes!"
