As the number of zombies decreased, Nanxing, Lei Lin and the others discovered that the number of zombie corpses became much denser.

Under the high temperature of the sun, the corpses of the zombies seemed to be burned, and were burnt yellow.

Lei Lin stopped the car, and the group, under the guidance of Nan Xing, temporarily stopped in the gold mining town.

The situation was too strange, so they had to be on guard. After some discussion, they decided to send a car to the oil field town to observe the situation.

As for the candidates, Nanxing was not included. One reason was that they felt that Nanxing would be a drag if something happened, and the other was that they also needed to be on guard.

Just because Nanxing doesn't look threatening doesn't mean others don't. They can feel more at ease with Nanxing on their side.

The group got off the car and prepared to explore the surroundings. Nanxing actually already had the answer in his mind.

Either the zombies from the red dot in the gold mining area escaped, or they were discovered by the people in the oil field town.

In that case, isn't the green dot in there safe to get now?

It would take several hours to get from the gold mining town to the oil field town and back, so she had to find a way to lead them to the gold mining site.

What kind of props can be found in the gold mining area, mining tools?

"Lily, you were here before. Do you have any clues?" Leylin squatted down and dug out two of the charred zombies, asking without turning his head.

Nanxing also took a small wooden stick and poked the pile of zombies. There were some shiny golden things inside the pile of zombies.

Gold.

It seems that the zombies in the gold rush are zombies with metal characteristics. The people in the oil field town are quite smart. They want to use the oil zombies to get rid of the metal zombies in the gold rush.

The metal zombies in the gold mining area are most likely gold zombies.

The melting point of gold is 1063.69 to 1069.74℃, while the burning temperature of oil can reach 700-1700℃.

I don’t know if they were lucky or if it was specially set up by the organizer.

"A clue... well... there should be a little bit." Nanxing thought carefully for a while and pointed to the gold mining site over there.

"When everyone was preparing to set out to clean up the oil field town, Grandma Zhang and the others were supposed to be sent to this town."

"But then I suddenly discovered that a lot of zombies inexplicably appeared in this town. I've been to this town before, and apart from some almost dead zombies, there were no other types of zombies."

"There's nothing wrong with the cactus plantation over there, except for one place that might be a problem."

"You mean the gold rush?"

"I think so, but I'm not sure." Nan Xing shook his head and did not give a definite answer.

Lei Lin looked at the direction Nan Xing pointed and whispered to the others before deciding to go over there and take a look without getting too close.

Of course Nanxing has to be brought along.

We drove to the gold mining site. It was desolate with a dried-up ditch. The surrounding environment was even worse than that of the gold mining town. There was an indescribable smell in the air.

In the dry environment, Nanxing couldn't see a single blade of grass. She put on her gas mask before getting out of the car with Lei Lin and the others.

The gold mining area is very vast. There are many gold mining caves dug by them, as well as many collapsed sheds used by gold miners to rest.

And a high mountain.

The mountain also had a cave in it, and the cave was so deep that they didn't dare to go in.

There is not a single zombie here, only some dry bone parts.

Nanxing followed behind Lei Lin and the others with the wolf pack. Lei Lin took a look at the female wolf's reaction and felt relieved.

Animals are often more able to sense danger than humans. Since they don't react, it means there are no zombies here.

Nanxing glanced around the gold mining site, and there was nothing here that looked like the green dot props.

There was not a trace of human artifacts, except for the collapsed wooden sheds.

In a cave or a mine dug underground?

“Awoo, awoo—”

The wolf cub suddenly ran forward, happily holding the bone in his mouth and started playing with his brothers.

Leylin and the others went forward and lifted up the wooden sheds to try to find some traces.

Nan Xing noticed the backpacks and luggage pressed under the wooden shed with his sharp eyes, and soon Lei Lin and the others also came to rest.

When they moved the wooden shed, they found a fresh corpse underneath.

It’s not really fresh, and it should have been dead for several months, but the climate and environment in this place make it look like it has been dead for a long time.

This was what Steve observed. He used to be a policeman, and his wife was a forensic doctor. Later, for some unknown reason, the couple both quit their jobs and started a farm, and they did quite well.

Kill one and dig one up.

Leylin dumped out the gold prospector's backpack, which contained a map, a diary, a pen, and a water bottle...

It's all useless.

"What did you write?" Steve sat on a rock, took a big gulp of water, and poured some on his body.

The weather here is so unbearable.

"A gambler who lost everything wants to try his luck in the gold rush town." Leylin sneered and threw the diary aside. The map was his own hand-drawn map of getting rich.

It depicts where he believes large amounts of gold may be buried.

Nan Xing went forward to pick it up and flipped through the diary. It was no different from what Lei Lin had said.

"Huh?" Nan Xing suddenly asked a question, attracting all their attention.

"What's wrong Lily?"

"Mr. Lei Lin, look here." Nan Xing pointed to a line of text on a certain page in the diary. "He said that one night, while half asleep and half awake, he seemed to see a golden figure that walked in a strange manner."

"What's this? A gambler's day." Leylin's words suddenly stopped. Walking golden men, a large number of oil zombie corpses, coke, and gold in the coke.

If you connect all these things together, the gambler was not dreaming, he really saw the golden man.

"If his records are correct, then the golden zombies appeared here a long time ago and didn't attack him. Why is that?"

Nanxing carefully analyzed the contents of the gambler's diary, trying to find out the root cause of all that happened.

"Can I assume that zombies can actually be controlled by humans?" Nanxing couldn't help but ask this question.

“…” Leylin was silent for a moment, then took the kettle Steve handed over. “Who knows?”

"Okay, there's no point in worrying about this. Staying alive is more important."

Nanxing pursed her lips and said nothing. She silently packed up all the things in the gold digger's backpack and put the backpack on her back.

Very good, I got the one-time prop, the mineral distribution map within a radius of 100 kilometers.

This will be very useful in the upcoming drought. After all, groundwater and mineral water are also mineral resources.

Thank you Lucky Pig Cutie for the monthly ticket ()*.
