46. Distress signals

"What about the Cryolites and the Treasure Caves?"

"It's in the north and east respectively, because the terrain is high, so the upright monsters won't come up, and because the temperature is high, most of the monsters that like yin and humidity won't come over, so it's the safest place, so we built the camp here"

"I see"

No wonder he had dug a hole in the basement, but when he climbed out, he found himself standing on top of a small dirt slope.

"Naturally, it's easy to attract monsters like iron-eating insects you said, so they brushed cypress oil on the wooden house to prevent insects, and there were traps before, but they were demolished after the old mage set up the strange stone henge, and then after we received the last note, no one has been there, if it wasn't for going to the treasure cave, Zhou Hui fainted again, you wouldn't have gotten there"

"That's the case, hey" Ling Ye moved his arm, only to feel extremely stiff, Grandma stepped forward to check it, and said:

"It's okay, it's pressed, it's a little bruised, just take some medicine"

As he spoke, he took out a few pills from his pocket and put them on the table, and instructed:

"Now that you're back, let's have a good rest and sleep in the camp"

Then he took the people and left.

I lay in bed after taking medicine at night, trying to sleep, but when I closed my eyes, I couldn't sleep.

He always remembered the "hiss" of the swarm in his ears, and the heaviness of being pressed, and finally sat up after turning it over and over a dozen times.

Zhang Ming on the opposite bed is not there, maybe he is still in the sweet potato field.

Ling Ye thought about it, so he put on his clothes and walked outside, wondering if he would feel at ease when he ate Zhang Ming's roasted sweet potatoes.

When I walked to the field, I found that it was dark all around, the sweet potatoes were growing very well, and they would be harvested in less than two days, while Zhang Ming was lying in the tent next to him, asleep.

He slept deeply, his hoe and basket were set aside, and he didn't even react when he walked over in the middle of the night.

Looking at his sleeping back, Ling Ye couldn't bear to disturb him, so he gave up the idea of talking to him and walked towards the flowers.

Vaguely saw a thin figure in front of him, he walked over, the figure did not notice, but read something seriously.

"Hey!"

Ling Ye shouted, startled the figure, the figure turned his head, he found that it was a ten-year-old child, not tall, a little timid, saw him, hurriedly hid the things in his hand behind him.

"You are?"

"Brother Ling Ye, my name is Zhao Jiuxiao," the boy replied.

"You know me?"

"Well, I've also heard the story of the spider god told by Brother Qian Bo, it's so exciting."

Ling Ye remembered that when he created this god, Qian Bo had suggested to him that it would be better to make up a few stories to make the image of the spider god more concrete, but he refused.

His suggestion is that the more concrete things are, the less oppressive they are, and that only what is illusory, but always present, can bring boundless fear.

Unexpectedly, he still said it.

Ling Ye could only nod and asked:

"What are you doing here without sleeping at night?"

"Didn't Brother Ling Ye sleep too? What are you doing here? ”

Ling Ye was choked, he couldn't admit that he was scared, so he coughed twice, indicating that he had eaten too much at night and came for a walk.

Zhao Jiuxiao glanced at him, wanting to see the reproachful expression on his face, but Ling Ye was a little weak at the moment, and touched the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.

The stone in his pocket fell out like this, and he hurriedly picked it up, but Zhao Jiuxiao picked it up first and stroked the pattern on it.

Then he raised his face and asked:

"Do you have any other stones?"

"No, except for this one, I gave it to my grandma to study, this piece is duplicated, it's a bit redundant, so I'll keep it myself"

"It's okay" Zhao Jiuxiao handed the stone to Ling Ye, squatted on the ground, rummaging for something, then picked up a white stone, dipped some soil with his hands, and drew on the stone.

Seeing that he was focused, Ling Ye didn't bother and waited quietly.

After a long time, I only heard him say "Okay", and then asked Ling Ye to stand still, and he ran away from home.

Ling Ye watched him trot all the way until he disappeared, and when he was a little surprised, he saw that the next moment, he appeared next to him.

"What's going on?" Ling Ye froze.

He pointed to the stone in his hand, and then to Midnight:

"I followed the drawing, this stone, the same pattern can be teleported to the side of another piece"

"How do you know?"

"I peeked, Sister Xin was studying with a few uncles and aunts in the house, I peeked at the window, they were very attentive, no one noticed me"

"Is your ability magic?"

"Uh..... I don't know, but the magic ability should be able to release orbs, right? Like the Anomalous, I don't"

"Do you know what is written on the first page of the note? Only magical abilities can use it, and since you can teleport, you must have this ability."

"Really?" Zhao Jiuxiao's excitement was on his face.

"Well, maybe it's because the Awakening ability requires conditions, or maybe it's not fully Awakened yet, but what else do you hear?"

"There's also a newsletter, I remember drawing it like this"

Zhao Jiuxiao picked up another stone and drew another symbol:

"This one can hear the sound of stones with the same symbol"

He put the stone next to Ling Ye's ear, and there was a shallow breathing sound from inside:

"It should be the sound of Sister Xin sleeping, the stones are all in her room, but there is another signal"

Zhao Jiuxiao recited another incantation, and the stone glowed yellow:

"This signal is farther away, and I don't know if I can hear it clearly"

"Ahh Help me! It hurts! Run! Stay away from me! Otherwise, you'll die too! ”

The cry of pain made the two of them nervous in their hearts, obviously it was a human voice, could it be that Zhao Yu and they had an accident.

"Here, get out of here!" A female voice rang out.

"It's Aunt Xiang! It's Aunt Xiang's voice! Zhao Jiuxiao shouted.

"You're talking about Li Xiang?"

"yes, they must have had an accident! Let's hurry up and find Sister Xin and ask her to find someone to save them! ”

Zhao Jiuxiao dropped the stone and ran out, Ling Ye hurriedly followed, they knocked on Grandma's door, and found Grandma with a confused expression, and quickly explained:

"Excuse me, we're in the rocks......"

"Hurry up and save Aunt Xiang, something happened to them!"

Zhao Jiuxiao interrupted Ling Ye's words and shouted eagerly.

Seeing that he kept shouting, Ling Ye quickly covered his mouth and explained the signal he heard.

Grandma picked up the strange stone and recited the incantation, but there was only a "rustle" sound on the other end.
