Farming for Survival in the Apocalypse

Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...

Chapter 1058 It Might Be a Mine

Shen Yanming planned to go in the direction of Hai City, but when he took out the compass, he found that it was not working.

He frowned and turned on the smart bracelet on his wrist. But the smart bracelet showed no signal.

This is a situation that I have never encountered before. Is there something underground blocking the signal?

Shen Yanming said to Bi Qiaoan with his consciousness: "Wife, which way do you want to go?"

Bi Qiaoan didn't know either. She used the zoom function to look at both sides of the passage, but there was no difference between the two sides, and she couldn't be sure.

"How about flipping a coin?"

Shen Yanming nodded and thought it was okay. He stood in the middle of the passage, took out a coin, threw it upwards, and put it in his palm.

"The front side faces the left, and the back side faces the right." He muttered to himself as he opened his palm and found the side with the words on it was on top.

After choosing the direction, Shen Yanming was ready to set off, but the chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits at his feet followed him closely, every step he took, they followed.

Shen Yanming couldn't bear to abandon these little guys, so he took out an electric car from the space, put the little animals in the basket and on the pedals, and rode the car slowly forward.

He originally wanted to walk, but walking was too slow and tiring. He was afraid that he would not be able to keep going for long. Now he could run slower and observe the surrounding environment.

In the space, Bi Qiaoan said: "Husband, just concentrate on riding the bike, and leave the rest to me."

Seeing this, Shen Yanming withdrew his observation and just focused on running forward.

The passage was so long that he could not see the end at either end. He ran for eight hours, but his car ran out of battery and he still could not see the end.

It's like being trapped in a maze.

Shen Yanming was somewhat discouraged. He entered the space with the car and the animals and collapsed on the ground.

Bi Qiaoan wanted to come over to comfort him, but Shen Yanming waved his hand, took off his equipment and put it in the corner, then summoned a basin of spiritual spring water to take a bath before going over to talk to the mother and her three children.

"Looking at the situation, there won't be any progress in the short term," Shen Yanming said.

Bi Qiaoan nodded: "It's okay, we have plenty of time anyway. If you really can't find a way out, I will use space to bring you back. As for the base, let them guess. At worst, it will be the second miracle."

Shen Yanming shook his head and laughed, ate a full meal in the storage area, and had a good sleep before leaving the space again.

This time I only brought a rabbit. It was quite thrilling for me and my rabbit to move around in this dark cave.

The sound of the electric car was played very loudly, and Shen Yanming felt that the hairs on his body stood up.

Another eight hours passed, and still nothing was found. If there were no marks on the ground, he would have thought he was just standing still.

After coming back and resting for a few hours, he learned that Qi Xili and the others were almost crying with anxiety, so he went out and showed his face.

Liang Huaxin pulled Shen Yanming and asked, "What's going on outside?"

Shen Yanming did not hide it: "A passage, very dark, very long, I don't know if it is straight or circular. Anyway, I ran twice and still couldn't find the end. There is air and it is breathable, which means it is not completely closed, but I don't know if I can find the exit."

"If we can't find it, we can't go back?"

Shen Yanming did not answer this question, but looked at Qi Xili: “How are the brothers?”

"He hasn't woken up yet, but scabs are starting to form on his body."

Shen Yanming nodded, picked more than twenty Bingyan fruits from the mountain and gave them to Qi Xili, who turned around and fed them to the wounded.

"Hey, Old Shen, what kind of fruit is this? Is it delicious?" Liang Huaxin asked with drooling.

Shen Yanming curled his lips and said, "That's not a fruit, that's medicine. Medicine to treat their internal burns. It just looks like a fruit. If you want to eat fruit, pick it yourself."

Liang Huaxin curled his lips and said, "I want to eat it, but I can't pick it."

Shen Yanming was surprised: "What is it? You can't pick it yet."

"durian."

Shen Yanming took a look and found that the tree seemed a bit tall. He picked two big ones with his consciousness and put them in front of him: "Eat!"

Liang Huaxin sat on the ground and started eating contentedly.

Seeing Qi Lin standing quietly beside him, Shen Yanming asked him, "How is it, are you used to it, is there anything you want to eat?"

Qi Lin shook his head: "No, thank you Uncle Shen."

Shen Yanming smiled and nodded.

Qi Lin thought of something and asked, “By the way, Uncle Shen, I found that the space stone in my pocket is gone. Do you know what happened?”

"This space will absorb space stones. The moment you come in, those stones will automatically become nutrients." Shen Yanming explained.

"Oh, I see."

"Okay, I still have to go out and explore the way. If you need anything, just get it yourself. I won't be here for the next two days."

Qi Lin nodded.

After Shen Yanming finished speaking, he returned to the storage area, said hello to Bi Qiaoan, and flashed out, continuing to run forward according to the marks he had made before.

A few more hours passed.

Suddenly, Bi Qiaoan felt something flash by, but she was not sure if it was her illusion.

After telling Shen Yanming about his discovery, Shen Yanming decided to go back and check.

Then the two found a fingernail-sized star dot on the mountain wall.

"Is this, the Space Stone?"

"It should be. Although I'm not sure about its formation mechanism, didn't we speculate before that the space stone erupted from deep underground?"

"So, do you think this could be a mine?"

"It's possible, but this mine is a bit special! I'm afraid the Alliance doesn't have the ability to mine it."

Shen Yanming looked up, but found that he couldn't see the top at all. If he drilled from the top down, how many years would it take?

Moreover, it is impossible to determine the longitude and latitude. The channel is so wide. If you drill the wrong one, wouldn’t it be a waste of effort?

Because the space stone was too high for Shen Yanming to reach, he only looked at it for a short while. After making sure that there was nothing else around, he got on his electric scooter and set off again.

This time he walked even slower, and two hours later, Shen Yanming found another space stone.

This time the space stone was embedded in the ground. He stopped the car, put his hand on the space stone, and with a thought, the space stone disappeared.

"It seems that this might really be a mineral vein." Shen Yanming said with a smile, and then entered the space.

Eat some food, change cars, and continue on. He was a little excited and didn't even want to rest.

Bi Qiaoan did not stop him. He just did the logistical work and carefully observed the surrounding environment.

Shen Yanming ran forward for another two hours and found that there were more space stones here, and they were all large pieces.

He collected more than twenty pieces into the space, and they were all absorbed.

Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan found that the area of the space had doubled. Well, it was now as big as a small city.

As for other functions, they remain to be discovered.

The couple were very excited, but problems arose after the excitement.

First, they didn't find a way out, so Shen Yanming and his companions couldn't return to Hai City openly.

Secondly, these stones can only be absorbed by space, and they cannot be transferred to the outside through space.
