Mental power scanning, in short, means that as long as you deploy your mental power, you can identify objects through echolocation like a bat emitting sound waves, and ignore obstacles, and the detection range is very wide.And the smaller the range of mental power, the more accurate the detection of the surrounding environment.This kind of power was developed by Rong Yuan when he was still on the earth, inspired by a race called the Microman. He has traveled in the universe for so long, but he has never found the same power on a second intelligent species. .And this ability undoubtedly provided him with a lot of convenience during his adventure.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Rong Yuan "saw" everything that was happening. He watched how the boy named Ye Zi followed closely behind the black beetle, how he chased the beetle nonstop, and after several times catching up with the black beetle How fiercely and decisively the beetle fought afterwards.He could have brought Hei Feng and others to find Ye Zi and the others. After all, even if they were led by the girl named Da Yu, they still had to go around a lot of wrong roads, but he didn't do that.Just because Rong Yuan saw that the boy transformed and grew up rapidly during this process, and his ability and temperament were sharpened preciously. As long as he let go and let him face it by himself, this experience will definitely remain in his life. A thick stroke of ink and color, engraved in his soul, made him unique from now on.Rong Yuan didn't want to interrupt this process, so he just followed the crowd leisurely and did not do anything unnecessary.And when the boy was in danger, he took a shortcut and rushed to him immediately.

After saving Ye Zi, Rong Yuan looked back at the direction of Hei Feng and the others, and walked towards the depths of the mine.

Ye Zi kept chasing after the black beetle, and every time he caught up, he couldn't wait to launch an attack, so he didn't see some abnormal phenomena, but they all fell into Rong Yuan's eyes.

The one that was killed by the leaves was the thinner one of the two black beetles, while the stronger one with a darker and more shiny shell kept the small stone in its mouth and used the hooks in its mouthparts to carefully hook the boy The clothes on the back didn't hurt him in the slightest.The most bizarre thing was that every once in a while, it would stop and use its forefeet to pull out a small package containing water from its belly, allowing the boy to eat.If it weren't for this, it would be impossible for Leaf with short legs to catch up to these two black beetles that were crawling much faster than him several times.

This is obviously not a behavior that this creature has evolved autonomously.

Therefore, after rescuing Ye Zi, Rong Yuan hesitated for a while, and did not take the small stone from the mouth of the black beetle, but continued to follow at a leisurely pace, but the distance was shortened a lot.

On the other side, Heifeng and the others suddenly had the help of a god, and they didn't go wrong again in the half day.But at the same time, the atmosphere in the team has also changed. It used to be nervous, anxious, and worried, but now it suddenly became silent. In the dark mine tunnel, besides the heavy panting of everyone, there is also a disturbing undercurrent surging.

Heifeng's face was tense. Although most of his thoughts were occupied by worries about the two children, he still couldn't help feeling that the brothers who he could entrust his back to in the past had become strange now. He couldn't figure out what they were thinking—wonder if they secretly looked at him with the same eyes and guessed his thoughts?

A storage bag.

A storage bag that is very precious even in the imperial capital.

Not to mention that there are many materials from the outside world inside.In contrast, the jerky torches and other things that Hei Feng and others entrusted to Rong Yuan for safekeeping are really cheap and not worth mentioning.

As long as anyone takes something like this to Central City, they can exchange everything they want from any powerful organization: status, power, wealth, women or men, and reliable security.

——Of course, it is not impossible to kill people and seize treasures.But this kind of thing only happens in secret, and most of them are short-sighted small and medium-sized forces. The more powerful forces, the more they pay attention to the establishment of credibility, and they rarely do one-shot deals like fishing for money.

Heifeng knows that the so-called trust and loyalty, for some people, is just because the price tag for betrayal is not enough.Now, a big enough temptation is suddenly placed in front of him, so how many people in his team can still stick to the original principles?

Living in the mine all year round, everyone's footsteps have been exercised extremely lightly.But at this moment, in Heifeng's ears, a sound was deafening.

It suddenly occurred to him that in the eyes of others, the person most likely to betray him was himself.Because among all the people, only he and his family need a more stable and affluent life the most.

Thinking of this, the tight string in Hei Feng's mind suddenly loosened.Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he suddenly smelled a faint bloody smell from his nose.

"Be careful!" Black Wind warned in a low voice.

Everyone deftly dispersed their guard, held their breath for a moment, found nothing unusual, and then trotted forward cautiously.Hei Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and vaguely saw something in the darkness ahead.He gestured to the others to get ready, and moved closer.

Then he saw the leaves lying on the ground.Surprised at first—the boy’s body was covered in blood, he was in a miserable state, and beside him was the corpse of a black beetle, which was very similar to the scene where the two died together; afterward, he was overjoyed—the boy fell asleep with a water bottle in his arms, breathing steadily , it seems that there is nothing serious; after careful inspection, there is only silence left.

The dead body, the tear on the clothes, the blackened blood on the ground, these are all unrealistic fakes, which fully prove what kind of battle happened here before, and how serious the injury Ye Zi should have been, can also be speculated.The reason for this is just speculation, because the boy doesn't have any scars on his body at this time, even some old scars can't be seen on his body, and he looks better than before.

As for the reason... that familiar kettle seems to explain everything.

"Boss, who is that person...?" After a while, Gail asked the common question of everyone.

"...I don't know." After hesitating for a moment, Heifeng decided to hide his guess about the ice coffin, and said with a wry smile: "I really don't know much more about him than you. But," he looked at the team leader It was the one with the obscene and cheerful smile, "Old Miles, you know something, don't you?"

Old Miles was lowering his head, looking at the blood on Ye Zi's body with an unpredictable expression. Hearing Hei Feng's question, he didn't answer immediately. After hesitating for a long time, he sighed, raised his head and said: " I don't know if he is the person I guessed... If it is really him, then... this time, we have really met a great big shot."

"Have you... heard of the Feiyan team?"

Centipedes, because of their slender bodies and double-digit feet, most people who don't have trypophobia hate and fear them.What's more, the centipedes in the prison star's underground have been mutated for a long time, and their bodies are hundreds of times larger than ordinary centipedes. People have only two reactions when they see them: either run away screaming, or rush up to kill it or be killed.

But at this time, a black-red centipede lowered its huge head, and stayed docilely beside Rong Yuan, even carefully retracting its feet, so as not to cause the person beside him to be unhappy.

Rong Yuan tilted his head, listening to the movement of several people a hundred meters away.

In the thousands of square meters of mine, there are dozens of large and small insects, all of which are common in mines. They belong to the kind that have a little fighting power but are not very powerful.These bugs rubbed their antennae or wings, making rustling noises, making them very noisy.And among the bugs, there were three fat people with small heads and big bodies, with extra round stomachs.

The black beetle appeared in the mine with the clothes biting the small stones, and rubbed its feet a few times. The fat man No. [-] seemed to hear something, and licked his lips and whistled intermittently. The scattered insects were quiet for a moment, and then squeezed together. Making way in the middle, the black beetle walked up to Fatty No. [-] with a small stone in its mouth.

Fatty No. [-] patted the head of the black beetle, took the small stone from its mouth, and checked it over and over again.The boy was crying pitifully without a sound, but his limbs were sound and his body was healthy. Fatty No. [-] smiled with his mouth open, no doubt very satisfied.

Fatty No. [-] came over to have a look, and said, "This time the goods are really good. But, your black general is also missing one, what a pity." He smacked his lips, gloating about his misfortune.

Number One's movements froze, and his expression turned cold when he looked at Xiaoshishi again.He snorted and said, "Give me this later, it will be enough for me to raise ten more black generals. But this time you have the least harvest, so be careful of being punished."

Number two's face also became ugly.

Number three did not participate in the quarrel between them, and asked, "Is this the last batch?"

"Yes." Number One said.

"I have a flying ant that hasn't come back." No. [-] said sullenly, "The connection is also broken."

"[-]% is already dead." No. [-] said with a supplementary knife, and No. [-] kicked him hard.

"Then don't wait, go back now." No. [-] made a decision, whistled, and most of the insects in the mine suddenly became energetic, shaking their tentacles and flapping their wings, waiting for the order.

"Wait for another half day, just half a day, okay?" Number Two begged, "Maybe it's in some signal shielded area..."

"No, leave immediately." Number Three interrupted him roughly, looked around, and said, "There's something...something's not quite right. Let's leave as soon as possible...the sooner the better!"

While speaking, he couldn't help showing a bit of panic.Number one and number two were startled at the same time. Although they didn't notice anything unusual, they seemed to trust their companion's intuition very much. Hearing what he said, they couldn't help feeling a little more uneasy in their hearts.So despite being very reluctant, No. [-] and No. [-] gave the order to retreat, and all the insects in the cave started to move in an instant.After such an activity, it can be seen that most of the insects carry at least one or several comatose people on their backs, most of them are young and strong men (because the prison star has the most people), and there are also a small number of children. And women, the latter received better care and protection, and paid far more attention than the former.

As soon as number one brushed the little stone's face, the boy immediately fell asleep.He tied the small stone to the back of the black beetle.I packed up my things and climbed onto another black beetle that was more than two meters high.No. [-] and No. [-] also boarded their mounts respectively—an amber ant and a pure black centipede respectively. After another whistle, all the insects got into a larger mine tunnel on the side, and the sand The rustling sound made one's scalp tingle.

At a turn in a small mine tunnel, the black and red centipede who was in charge of guarding turned his head to look at Rong Yuan. After he nodded, he meandered to the place where his master summoned him.

"Human traffickers..." Rong Yuan frowned.After wandering among the stars for many years, he is no longer the age where he used to be jealous, and his views on many things have become much more tolerant.But if there are any crimes that he absolutely cannot forgive, human trafficking is definitely one of them.According to Rong Yuan's thinking, it is natural to stand still at this time, follow these people to find their lair, and then catch them all.However, the mental power "looked" behind and "looked", Heifeng and others found Ye Zi and stayed there for a while, and then chased after him again.

For parents, every second of separation between blood relatives is probably a painful torment, right?

——Forget it, just a little more trouble.

Rong Yuan thought to himself.He closed his eyes, locked onto the black beetle carrying the small stone, flicked his fingers, and sent out a silent attack.

In the dark mine tunnel, three fat men hurried on their way.They relied on the sensitive sense of smell of the insects under their feet to identify the direction, and did not light additional lighting objects such as torches. In addition, the mine tunnel was narrow and there were many insects, so Fat Man No. [-] did not notice that the black beetle he valued had already left. After breaking through the protection circle, he slowly fell behind the team.

A black-red centipede passed by the black beetle, paused, raised its head, and then continued to crawl forward, its slender body twisted coquettishly.

The black beetle landed at the back of the line and stopped slowly, shaking its filament-like tentacles, its dark compound eyes revealing a sense of bewilderment.

Rong Yuan came to it, pointed at it, cut the rope tied to the small stone, lifted the boy off the worm's back, looked at it, put it on the ground, dispersed the surrounding predators with mental power, and then He jumped onto the back of the black beetle.

The black beetle trembled all over, as if it suddenly woke up from sleep.It shook its head, ignoring the small stone lying on the side, quickly strode its six slender legs, caught up with the large army of insects, and quickly returned to its original sequence.Rong Yuan sat cross-legged on its back, resting his chin with one hand, looking extraordinarily comfortable, in this situation, it looked a bit weird.

At this time, a low moan came from behind the mole cricket next to the black beetle. In the darkness, a girl whose limbs were tied to the mole cricket snorted twice, then immediately closed her mouth, barely raised her head, and turned around. Seeing Rong Yuan nearby at a glance, he opened his mouth wide in astonishment.

Rong Yuan nodded slightly, thinking: what a coincidence.

This girl was none other than Mia whom he had met once before.
