Interstellar journey to another world

The next morning, Mo Ci got up early and packed himself up. I put the tools I bought online yesterday into my backpack, brought two nutritional supplements, a large bottle of water, and found a small lighting lamp from the drawer.

Stepping out of the door, the entire corridor was quiet. Mo Ci paid special attention to No. 180, which was in the diagonally opposite corner of his room. The door was closed.

Speaking of which, the boy was about the same age as me, with a cheerful and warm-hearted personality. Without his help that day, I wouldn't have been able to find a place to live so quickly. It would be great if I could become friends with him.

Mo Ci walked around the alleys and came to the floating station. He spent 3 credits to ride the floating car to the field collection base station in Area E.

The base station is located at the foot of the Kazu Mountains. It covers a large area. In the center is a tall building made of silicon-carbon hybrid materials. The overall shape is semicircular. There are many small doors at the bottom of the building, and one or two base staff may enter and exit from time to time.

Next to the building is a high protective net that stretches all the way to the depths of the mountains. Anyone who comes to collect Taobao can only enter through the only gate. There are more than a dozen fully armed guards at the gate to maintain order, and two toll booths are set up at the door. , each person is charged a toll of one credit point.

Mo Ci lined up and paid the money, then slowly moved forward with the flow of people, looking around curiously.

There are many people like him who come here to scavenge, and most of them come in groups. Very few people go alone. Most people carry baskets, backpacks, and hold weapons and tools in their hands.

There were very few trees around the base, but the weeds were extremely lush, and some were even taller than people. Mo Ci carefully examined and found that the interstellar plants were very different from those he had seen on Earth. It was like growing long after using too much hormones. It is tall and strong, an ordinary foxtail is half as tall as a man.

There are two roads at the foot of the mountain, one south and one north. There are signs on the roadside, one leads to the forest and the other leads to the mining area.

Next to the sign leading to the mining area, there are dozens of mine carts soliciting customers. After all, the mining area is still quite a distance away. If you walk, it will take a day to go back and forth, so there is nothing to do.

Mo Ci spent another credit point and took a mine cart to the outskirts of the mining area. The sky was full of yellow sand, and the uneven ground was covered with large and small gravels. There were very few green plants scattered here and there.

There were twenty-three people in their car, and the seat next to him was a middle-aged man with a full beard. The uncle was very cheerful and talkative. When he learned that Mo Ci was alone, he kindly invited him to join his team, but Mo Ci politely refused.

After getting out of the car, these people divided into three teams and left in different directions, talking and laughing.

Mo Ci stood there for a while, determined the direction, and chose a direction with fewer people to move forward quickly.

There were many uninhabited mining tunnels along the way, but he didn't stop at all. This was the outermost part of the mining area, with countless people coming and going, and there wasn't anything good left to think about.

After walking for half an hour, the terrain was getting higher and higher, and the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter. Mo Ci cheered up, observed his surroundings, and moved forward cautiously.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound in his ears. He stopped and listened attentively. "Zee, squeak, squeak." Mo Ci's heart was beating wildly. He took a deep breath and turned his head to look around.

Damn it, a grey-brown mouse with long arms was poking its head in a stone cave, its brown-black eyes rolling.

Good guy, why is there such a big mouse? It’s so scary!

Mo Ci hurriedly took out the pickaxe from his backpack and clenched his hands, secretly on guard.

Many animals in the interstellar contain toxins, and being bitten is no joke. In mild cases, they may be poisoned, or in severe cases, limbs may be amputated.

Fortunately, the scavenger rat barked twice more and disappeared into the hole. Mo Ci took a few steps back, turned around and ran away quickly. He was afraid that it would find a companion and put him in a desperate situation. One of them could barely deal with it. A group of people, haha, I’m afraid the bones will be chewed up until no scraps are left!

When he was far away, he chose a spacious mine and went in.

The mine was a bit dark and humid. He tied the lighting equipment above his head, which could only illuminate the small area in front of him. The brightness of this thing was not enough, and the illumination range was also small. However, his pocket was really not rich and he did not have any extra money. I have to buy other equipment, so I have to make do with it for now!

The dark mine tunnel was silent, only the sound of falling footsteps echoed for a long time.

The light above his head illuminates this small area, as if he is the only one left in the world.

Mo Ci rubbed his face vigorously to cheer up, secretly alerting himself and seizing the time to look for the ore, it was all money! Small money, here I come! !

He held the pickaxe in his left hand, and in his right hand he held a second-hand professional simple detector for detecting loose rocks that he bought from the Star Network, and searched carefully inch by inch.

No, no, not yet. I searched several mines all morning but couldn't find any.

Your luck won't be so bad!

There was a faint ray of light ahead, hey, it's over again. I touched my flat belly and said, forget it, let’s get some air first, take a break after lunch and then do it again!

The hot sun shone on the earth, and Mo Ci squinted his eyes slightly in discomfort. He took out a nutritional supplement from a simple fresh-keeping box, looked at it for a long time, sighed deeply, and quickly squeezed it into his mouth and swallowed it. The medicine is usually washed down with water.

This meal is finally over, I miss the food of my own world so much! Especially the mushroom soup that Master is good at. The soup is so delicious that it can be swallowed by your tongue. You can eat three big bowls in one meal. There is also the roast duck made by my senior brother. It is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The aroma is overflowing. Wow, it’s so delicious!

Hey, I don’t know how many times I sighed today! Heartbroken!

No, no, this decadent state of mind affects my mood too much. Throw it away, throw it away, shake your head, clenched your fists, cheered yourself up, and rushed to the next mine tunnel.

The crisp sound of "ding ding" sounded like fairy music in my ears, and I finally found it!

Mo Ci was so happy that he used stones to draw a rough outline of the location. He raised his pickaxe and smashed it hard. Smoke and dust flew everywhere, and gravels burst out. After smashing it for more than a dozen times, it finally hit a hard rock and sparks burst out.

Mo Ci bent down and took a closer look. A faint blue light flashed slightly under the light. Yes, that's it. He patted the dust on his hand, spit into the palm of his hand, picked up the pickaxe and dug carefully along the edge.

Finally, Li Shi, the size of a football, was carefully held in his hand.

Get rich, get rich! It’s so big!

A flash of joy flashed in Mo Ci's eyes. Today was finally not in vain. If there is no harvest, tomorrow he will really have to eat dirt.

Such a huge harvest instantly ignited his enthusiasm. He took the detector and scanned the surroundings inch by inch, and he actually found four or five more fist-sized rocks.

When you are busy, you almost don’t feel the time passing by.

He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, only to realize that the palm of his hand had blistered and broken out at some point. It was soaked in sweat and made him feel terrible pain.

I casually glanced at the time in my mind, my dear, why does time fly by so fast! There was still an hour left, and the last hovercar back to the city was about to leave.

Mo Ci hurriedly packed up all his things and hurriedly ran towards the mine cart along the original route.
