Chapter 274: Looking for Lao He
"The two of them have a good relationship, it's just a joke between good friends."
Yue Yang followed and added.
Jinwu nodded.
"Alright, we're going to set up a makeshift camp around here."
"You can walk around during this time, but please don't go far."
"The depths of the underground mines are dangerous! Don't do it on your own!"
Jinwu emphasized.
"Got it, got it."
"Trust us."
Paimon patted his chest and assured.
"By the way, Sister Jinwu, Lao He ......."
Zhiqiong interjected next to him.
"I haven't forgotten yet, since the travelers have come down, let's talk about it here."
"Lao He is a senior in our mine, and when the miners were evacuated from the Chasm a few years ago, he unfortunately disappeared."
"Although the pension has been paid, his family has also taken care of the white affairs...... Still, I think he's alive...... He's a veteran miner, how to escape, how to wait for rescue, etc., etc., he knows a lot, and he has taught me a lot."
"So I'm sure he's still alive, just somewhere we haven't found out...... You must not give up on the search and rescue of him!"
Lao He is an old-timer of Jinwu, and Jinwu also has a very strong affection for him, and he doesn't want him to disappear for no reason.
She took out a map with a few directions circled on it, saying that it was the place where Lao He worked before the miners evacuated.
"I might be able to find some clues here, please."
Jinwu solemnly handed over the map to a few people.
"Then I'll go deep into the mines! We need to make a map as soon as possible."
Zhiqiong also picked up her backpack with a smile on her face, and the red decoration on her hat was shining.
"Ah, aren't you coming with us?"
Paimon was stunned for a moment, wasn't Zhiqiong their guide?
She doesn't have a vision, she's just an ordinary person, just go to the depths of the mine......
"I'm a veteran, I'll be fine, don't worry! Senior!"
After Zhiqiong finished speaking, he waved his hand and ran out.
"We're going to set up camp too."
"Traveler, remember to be safe!"
"And don't quarrel!"
Jinwu solemnly named Ying and Paimon.
"We're not arguing!"
Paimon stamped his foot, but Jinwu was already busy.
"Brother Yue Yang, where are we going now?"
Ying looked at Yue Yang.
It was the first time she had come here, and she was not at all as familiar with Yue Yang.
"Let's go, let's go find Lao He first."
Yue Yang took on the task of guiding him relentlessly, and did not forget to look up.
On the pitch-black rock, there seemed to be a blue figure flashing.
The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he led Ying to stride forward.
"Based on the markings on the map, this should be the place."
A few people stopped in one place, there are still traces of human life here, but they all look old, and they must have been shelved for a long time.
Yue Yang looked around and let Ying explore here first, while he went to a remote place.
"Come out."
"Aren't you tired of following all the time?"
He asked.
There was no response from the empty place.
Yue Yang sighed.
"If you don't want to come out, forget it."
When he returned, Paimon was muttering something like a log fragment with Ying.
It should be that a clue was found.
Needless to say, Ying has already spontaneously found several other positions.
Yue Yang was a little absent-minded along the way, dealing with it along
The Treasure Hoarders were also a little scattered.
But even so, nothing could invade his body.
"What do you call mushrooms? Are we the ones we picked on the road?"
Paimon looked at the contents of the journal and couldn't figure it out.
"After being in the mine for a long time, it is common for people's spirits to be polluted and hallucinate."
Yue Yang explained.
Paimon nodded understandingly.
"Those black things are, aren't they? They stink, and if I keep smelling them, I'm going to be crazy!"
On the way here, they didn't see much of this kind of mud.
"This sludge is a recent one, and it's a strange sight, not what you think it is."
Yue Yang couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Paimon had covered his nose.
"I see......
"Be careful! There's a monster coming!"
Paimon stepped back with the log fragment in his arms, and Ying and Yue Yang were already in a posture of battle.
These rock dragon lizards still emit the same stench, and their defense and attack power have been greatly improved.
It's a tough guy to deal with.
Ying clenched the sword in her hand.
"Ying, with a lumen stone!"
Yue Yang shouted, Ying took out the lumen stone in confusion, and as soon as he looked ahead, the pile of silt-like things was dispersed, and the stench on the rock dragon lizard also dissipated without a trace.
"It's amazing!"
Paimon exclaimed.
Was it solved this way?
That's amazing!
Ying didn't know that the lumen stone still had such a function, and after being stunned for a moment, she caught up with the rock dragon lizard again.
Yue Yang was mainly observing Ying at all times, and if she had any signs of being unable to parry, she would go up to help as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Ying's growth is very good, and her strength is also good.
The strength of the rock dragon lizard that has not been strengthened is not strong, and it is easy to be killed by Ying.
"Whew...... It's so dangerous, but I'm glad you're here."
Paimon slapped Ying's ass as usual.
Ying smiled embarrassedly.
"Let's take a look at the log."
On the log, Lao He's hallucinations seem to be more serious.
"Hmm, the three log fragments are here, let's go back to Sister Jinwu and see what she has to say?"
Ying looked at Yue Yang.
Yue Yang nodded.
"Let's go."
Before leaving, he looked back again.
The person hiding in the shadows subconsciously shrank back.
Although she was very sure of her hiding skills, he would never be able to see herself in this position, but ......
Why is there always a feeling of being seen through?
Yelan covered her face, and for the first time she had the urge to flee.
But the men were gone, and she gritted her teeth and chased after them again.
When they went back, Jinwu's camp had already been set up, and she seemed to have just finished her work, and her face was still sweaty.
"Ah, you're back."
Jinwu wiped the sweat from his forehead, picked up the kettle next to him and took a sip.
"These are all messages left by Lao He."
Paimon offered to send all three log fragments over.
"Did you really make a discovery?"
Jinwu took the fragment of the journal and looked at it in amazement.
"It's too wicked."
Jinwu frowned, even she couldn't understand what was written in this journal at all.
"Zhiqiong, you come...... What about Zhiqiong?"
She turned her head and subconsciously wanted to call Zhiqiong to come and see, who knew that Zhiqiong was actually gone.
