Chapter 91 Someone is Missing



He stood up, holding the gold in his hand, his smile almost reaching his ears, and examined it closely.

After looking at it for a long time, I reluctantly put it into the bottle and continued walking.

This place has gold, Yin Xing certainly can't let it go; he's determined to search the entire area thoroughly.

While walking along the road, Yin Xing was absentmindedly exploring, occasionally letting out a laugh, his mind filled with the piece of gold he had just seen.

They completely forgot Zheng Ping's instructions and forgot that it was time to turn back.

Just as darkness fell, Chen Feng finally returned to the van's meeting point. There were already three or four people chatting outside the van, including Zheng Ping.

"Fengzi!" Zheng Ping waved excitedly to Chen Feng, eager to share the good news with him.

"How long have you been back?" Chen Feng asked curiously as he walked over.

"Well, I just got back too. It's my first time here, so it's fine to come back a few minutes earlier. If I had come back later, it would have been more difficult," someone replied.

"Fengzi, how much did you find today?" Zheng Ping asked with a chuckle.

"A few hundred yuan, I guess," Chen Feng said after thinking for a moment.

"Great job, it has to be you. You're so lucky, you've found the best deals among us now," Zheng Ping said, patting Chen Feng on the shoulder.

"And you guys?" Chen Feng looked at the group and could tell they were in a pretty good mood, probably having had their share of fun.

"I bought nearly 250 or 260 items today, hahaha, I've never bought so much before!" Zheng Ping couldn't help but be happy when he mentioned it.

“I made the least today, but I still made just over two hundred.”

"I think I'm around 230 or 240?"

"I'm not very good at this, I'm around 270, haha."

The group shared their findings, exchanged glances, and burst into laughter.

Today's harvest exceeded their expectations; this place is truly wonderful.

"We really came to the right place! There are so many more goods here than back home. The key is that our average income isn't low, which proves that it's not just good luck, but that there are genuinely a lot of goods here!" Zheng Ping said excitedly.

Everyone agreed with this statement and nodded in unison.

They knew they didn't have Chen Feng's incredible luck; after all, the Gold Rush Divine Body was no joke, and they didn't expect to actually dig up a big gold brick someday.

They were content as long as they could find a few small silver nuggets every day.

Huang Fei, still half-asleep, got out of the car. Looking at the group of people returning, he stretched and said, "You're back?"

"You're awake?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.

"It's actually not so bad, but if I sleep any longer, I won't be able to sleep at night. Let's have a meal together, chat a bit, and then I'll sleep later," Huang Fei said, lighting a cigarette.

"How was the harvest?" Huang Fei asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, unable to hide their smiles. Zheng Ping then told him about their gains.

"Holy crap, that's amazing!" Huang Fei was immediately shocked upon hearing this.

"Well, you see, it's also possible that there's a lot of stock in this area. We don't know about tomorrow," Zheng Ping added.

"If there are so many here, there must be plenty elsewhere. We really made the right choice coming here this time," Huang Fei said happily.

Huang Fei wasn't envious of how much they earned; on the contrary, he hoped they would earn even more.

This way, I can hire more of his cars, and he also has a detector, so I can check things out whenever I have free time. Every little bit helps in earning more money.

Of course, the main reason is that during the day, Chen Feng and his group go out to pan for gold, and it would be too boring for Huang Fei to stay in the car by himself. It would be more fun to go out to pan for gold.

"Alright, everyone, let's get ready to eat. I heard the temperature difference here is quite significant at night. Let's chop some firewood, start a fire, and heat up all the food that can be heated." Zheng Ping went to the car and took out two axes.

"Give me a hand, you've all been working hard all day, I'm feeling energetic." Huang Fei reached out to Zheng Ping.

Zheng Ping smiled upon hearing this, handed him an axe, and the two prepared to chop wood.

Chen Feng looked around, somewhat puzzled, and said, "There are still two people who haven't returned?"

"Yeah, they're probably on their way back." Zheng Ping said, glancing at the sky.

It's just getting dark, so it's alright.

Chen Feng didn't think much of it. They only brought two axes, so Chen Feng went to find them some stones that they could use to build things.

Everyone pitched in, as they often did these chores at home, making it easy and stress-free.

Soon, a circle made of large stones was formed two meters away from the car. Zheng Ping threw the firewood he had chopped into the circle and gathered some dry grass to start a fire.

Actually, when Zheng Ping suggested starting a fire, two other people thought it was unnecessary. After all, it was so hot, why start a fire? How big could the temperature difference be?

It would be better if it were cooler.

But as darkness fell, everyone felt something was wrong; the temperature was dropping.

If it stops now, it will be cool and comfortable, but if it goes any lower, it will start to get a bit cold.

Huang Fei also chopped a lot of firewood and put it aside, preparing to throw it into the fire later.

The flames gradually rose, some dry branches were ignited, and the fire grew stronger and stronger.

"Seriously, I've never been to a bonfire party before in my life. This is almost like the ones on TV. I never thought I'd be able to have a bonfire party someday," one person said with a look of joy as he gazed at the bonfire.

With such a good harvest today, we should have a bonfire party to celebrate.

"Haha, I'll cook some rice later, so we won't have to eat cold food anymore," another person laughed.

Chinese people have a strong attachment to hot food. They always feel uncomfortable eating cold food and prefer hot food.

Just as they were discussing how to cook their meal, a person walked out from not far away; it was their companion.

"Good heavens, you've even started a fire?" the man laughed upon seeing this.

"Why are you back so late? Did you find something good?" Zheng Ping asked with a smile.

"Don't even mention it, I got lost on the way back and it took me ages to find my way back." The man waved his hand, exhausted, and plopped down on the ground.

"Hey, where's Yin Xing? Isn't he with you?" someone asked, frowning.

With only the last rays of light remaining, why hasn't Yin Xing returned yet?

"He's not with me? I thought I was the last one. He hasn't come back yet?" the man said in surprise.

Upon hearing this, a bad feeling immediately arose in everyone's mind.

This is not a good thing.

Once night falls and there is no light, people can easily lose their sense of direction and get lost, sometimes even walking in circles.

"What's going on?" Zheng Ping took out his phone and dialed Yin Xing's number, but the call couldn't be connected.

"He's gone too far. The signal is only half strong here, and it will only get weaker as he goes further in." Chen Feng immediately understood what was going on.

"Damn it, is this idiot crazy? It's already dark and he's still not heading back!" Zheng Ping frowned and cursed, continuing to dial the number.
