A Midnight Escape Story for Farmers

"You're thinking too much," Xiao Fengdi let out a sigh of relief, "Relax a bit. It's not something embarrassing for others to want to treat you better."

Fang Shiqing wanted to explain, but he stopped him immediately.

"You don't need to put any pressure on me. I have enough power now, so I am willing to do it. This is really just a matter of convenience for me. If you don't want to do this, of course you have the right to refuse. There is no need to worry about anything, but if you can accept it If so, I'd be happy."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked forward.Of course, the walking speed was very slow, giving Fang Shiqing enough time to catch up.

Fang Shiqing was stunned for a while, and suddenly a lot of apology and bewilderment flooded his heart.

People kindly help him, but he refuses with such an attitude, it is inevitable to feel lost and chilling.Shouldn't I have said that in the first place?

——However, how should I say it?

He didn't realize it until the other party walked a dozen steps away, and hurriedly chased after him.

"That, boss, isn't it..."

"Don't apologize."

Xiao Fengdi turned his head and glanced at him, so he had no choice but to swallow his apology back.

"I mean," he said, trying to figure out how to express himself, "I appreciate you, but I'd be embarrassed if you helped me so much."

So far, he has caused a lot of trouble to others and has been rescued several times. Speaking of which, he no longer knows how to repay him.

The so-called kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, but there is no way to repay the kindness of saving a life. Now that everyone has saved his life, but still treat him "better", how can this kind of favor be repaid? Can't afford to cut up and sell the organs?

"--return?"

After listening to his stumbling explanation, the other party just paused for a while, looked at him with a frown, and then said as a matter of course, "I don't expect you to give me anything in return, as long as you live well. I hope you can live well."

Fang Shiqing almost didn't cry, Mr. Xindao, are you an angel who descended to the mortal world or a saint who reincarnated in the modern age, do you want to be such a good person? !

"I just want to be nice to you." Xiao Fengdi was getting impatient, and said again, "If you feel uneasy, you can also be nice to me. Change this matter from one-way to mutual, Isn't that all right?"

"what?"

——It seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

Although this wording sounds strange, it always feels a bit weird... But it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.

So the conclusion of the matter is, in order to repay the kindness, should he find a way to treat the boss better?How to do this specifically, is it feasible to help him run errands and bring meals to buy cat food?Oh, speaking of which, the cat was also raised for him...

Fang Shiqing felt that his mind was swollen and confused, no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out clearly. In the end, he was dragged all the way up the road.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before the two found a dark hole in front of it.

The entrance of this cave is only as high as one person, and it has obviously been trimmed and reinforced to a certain extent, so it is probably a mine.

Xiao Fengdi picked a flat stone less than one foot and placed it in front of the entrance of the cave, and carved a complicated symbol on it with a dagger, then Guan Fang Shiqing asked for a water cup, poured half a cup of water into it, and put the cup in the Directly above the symbol, a few drops of blood dripped from a cut finger.

I saw that the few drops of blood did not spread naturally in the water, but spread to the side far away from the entrance of the cave as if they had sensed something.

"It should be here," he said when he saw this, "the yang energy in this cave is very pure and heavy, and cinnabar is exactly what is pure yang. You see, after I purified the yang energy with the charm, the yang energy was reduced from concentration to concentration. High places diffuse to places with low concentrations, so they all flow in the opposite direction."

Fang Shiqing squatted beside him, watching eagerly.This was the first time he had seen such a magic-like phenomenon. It felt a little fresh, but he couldn't help but worry.

"Then do you feel uncomfortable staying here?"

Even the blood that flowed out automatically ran in the opposite direction. His people should also be very repulsed by this place.

"...No," Xiao Fengdi said, "No matter how much yang energy I have, I am still a living person."

Including "human beings", all living creatures in this world are essentially products of the harmony of yin and yang.

"Oh, that's good. Let's go in and have a look now?"

Fang Shiqing looked at the sky.

It took them a little longer to get here because they didn't know the specific environment and route. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun began to gradually move westward.

The route back is already clear, which can save a lot of time, but it will take at least two hours.They had to start back at 04:30 at the latest, or they might not be able to get back to town before dark.

"Wait a minute," Xiao Fengdi patted his knee, "stretch out your left hand."

He put Fang Shiqing's left hand on his knee, took out the pen he usually used for drawing symbols, dipped it in ink, and carefully drew a very complicated pattern on the palm of his hand.

The touch of the brush tip across the palm was very itchy. Fang Shiqing shuddered several times, and was immediately pressed down by the other party.

"Be patient, it will be fine soon."

After finishing the painting, I don't know how he did it, but the pattern was fixed in the palm of his hand like sprayed with styling fluid.Fang Shiqing knew that it was probably a special charm for life-saving, so he quickly thanked him.

"Thank you, boss, but why...is it black?"

"Because there is no need to use cinnabar." Xiao Fengdi patted the ashes on his hands and stood up. "This place itself is a cinnabar mine. If there are monsters that can move around here, do you think cinnabar will be effective for it?"

He really never thought about this.

It is true that this is a cinnabar mine, how could ghosts come to such a place?Aren't ghosts unable to stand the strong yang energy?

"'Monsters' are not just 'ghosts'," Xiao Fengdi explained calmly, "We are in the mountains. In reality, the most common monsters in this environment should be monsters or spirits, but I don't know the game. Is there anything like that in there?"

Monsters and spirits—that is, the so-called "beasts cultivated to become fine" or "monsters produced by nature", including the so-called vixen, Huang Daxian, and all kinds of fairies in Journey to the West, etc.

Before entering the cave, doing this made Fang Shiqing nervous for no reason.

The two walked inside the mine.The passage quickly became very narrow, and one had to bend forward, but because of the repairs, it was not difficult to walk.

Zhang Yu once said before that the location of the cinnabar mine is an "industrial secret" of his family. It can be inferred that his family members, that is, the operator of the grocery store, have been secretly mining cinnabar near here, and put it in the store after processing. for sale.

In the world view of this game, there is no such thing as ownership of mineral deposits, anyone can mine them, and the ore is refreshed every day, and it will not be completely consumed.But the so-called "rare things are more expensive", if more people know the location of the mine, and everyone can obtain cinnabar independently, of course they will not go to the store to buy expensive goods, so the grocery store always puts this news Keep it a secret.

...Of course, it doesn't make much sense to use the logic of reality to speculate on the NPC's approach. Everything can be explained by the phrase "game needs".

Fang Shiqing hung the flashlight by his waist and followed Xiao Fengdi silently.

He always felt that a goblin might appear at any time and startle him, so he mobilized all the nerves in his body, but in fact, until the two of them went deep into the mine, the surroundings were still quiet and there was nothing. .

It's right to think about it, it's daytime after all, and the daytime in this game has always been very scientific.

"Look." Xiao Fengdi suddenly turned his flashlight around a corner and pointed it at the protruding stones on the slope.

On the surface of the stone, small, inconspicuous red crystals can be seen——

Shi Qing suddenly became excited at this point, completely throwing away the previous nervousness, he immediately took out the pickaxe, and knocked out the ore.

After getting it in his hand, the passive skill immediately displayed the words "Cinnabar Ore". He finally smiled with relief, knowing that this time he really came to the right place.

"Boss, it's really cinnabar! Look——" He took the stone in his hand with a smile on his face, and wanted to pass it to the other party to feel the joy together, but when he looked up, he found that the other party was staring at the dark passage On the other end, with a dignified expression, his heart skipped a beat.

"--What's wrong?"

"Over there..." Xiao Fengdi paused and said, "It's okay, let's see if there are any around."

The boss has said so, even if Fang Shiqing still has doubts in his heart, he can only follow through.

They inspected this section of the tunnel, and tentatively mined a section to the inner side of the mountain wall. They really found quite a lot of ore, but it was very scattered.

Fang Shiqing's eyes were dazzled by the search, but seeing the extra gains in the props bar, he couldn't help smiling from ear to ear.

It took quite a long time to mine the ore in this area alone. Fang Shiqing completely forgot the passage of time, and didn't realize it until he was almost done digging.

Considering the time issue, it was not suitable to go further now, so the two retreated along the original road.Before leaving, Xiao Fengdi glanced at the deeper darkness again, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

As soon as he left the mine, Fang Shiqing was taken aback.

The sun was already setting outside, and the time was much later than he expected.

He hurriedly called the boss to return quickly.

When going back, there is no need to follow the way you came from. Just open the map in the status bar and you will be able to see the direction of Fengyue Town and your own location. Just follow the map and take the road with the shortest straight line distance.

The places that have been explored will also be marked on the map. If you want to come to this mine next time, it will be much easier than this time.

Even so, when they returned to the vicinity of the Panshan Highway, it was still almost dark.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but there are gusts of wind blowing from the mountain just left behind, mixed with the roar of wild animals.Fang Shiqing thought belatedly that they didn't encounter any decent beasts along the way, only a few rabbits and birds overhead.

"I'll take you back, it's already this time," Xiao Fengdi looked around, then suddenly frowned and pointed not far away, "Look over there."

Fang Shiqing flicked the flashlight, and saw a zombie just broke out of the ground there, shaking and grabbing the surrounding grass roots, suddenly raised his head, and faced them with a face that was mostly rotten, and let out a burst of pain in his throat. Ha ha sound.

He has seen a lot of zombies, but he is not too afraid: "Is there something wrong with this zombie?"

If it's just an ordinary zombie, the boss wouldn't ask him to take a look at it, right?

"Don't you think that zombie looks familiar?" Xiao Fengdi asked.
