Chapter 29 Those Who Abandoned Me (2) (1st update + 2nd update + 300 extra updates) [VIP]
After an extremely painful breakfast, the uncle took away the dishes and chopsticks, and the six people in the yard had to start today's work.
When the uncle brought the pickles, he mentioned: Teacher Ma said that today's workload is heavy. It is reasonable to speculate that those who came to do the geological survey are still students. Since they are students, they must have a leading teacher.
Bai Jinshu was rummaging through things in the room while packing up items he would need when he was going out.
The items in the backpack were neatly arranged. Bai Jinshu took them out and looked at them one by one, then added some more things in.
He had to take the flashlight that had been charged overnight. Although it was daytime, the lighting in the cave was probably not optimistic. He also needed water. The kettle on the table was empty. He went out and scooped a few scoops of water from the water tank, filled it up and put it on the side of the backpack. These were some basic items.
According to She Mochu's experience, in addition to these, if you go into the mountains or forests, you must bring some mosquito repellent, band-aids and medicine for bruises and injuries. He himself does not attract mosquitoes due to his special physique, but many of his previous teammates needed these. I don't know if the players in the high-end space will need them, but it's better to be prepared.
After Bai Jinshu finished preparing these, the other five teammates had almost packed up. They walked out of the door. Standing at the door was a man who was also carrying a mountaineering backpack and wearing a straw hat. He should be the teacher Ma that the uncle mentioned.
Teacher Ma, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looked gentle. He was standing at the door with his bag on his back. He looked no older than 30, and surprisingly young. Seeing them coming out, he nodded with satisfaction and praised them, "Everyone is in good spirits today. Let's continue to act according to the previous grouping. Everyone is clear about the work content. Good luck on the last day. As soon as the bridge is reopened tomorrow, we can go back to school!"
Teacher Ma's tone sounded passionate, but the six students standing opposite him looked confused.
What was the previous grouping?
Lu Changfeng paused and bumped into Li Ren who was walking behind him. Although Li Ren almost tripped, there was no anger on his face. Instead, he looked exactly like Lu Changfeng, feeling helpless.
What should I do?
The teacher didn't even bother to explain. After giving the instructions, he turned around and was about to leave. He obviously assumed that everyone knew what he was talking about, which confused everyone.
"Teacher Ma——" At this moment, Bai Jinshu suddenly said, "But I don't want to be in the same group with him."
Teacher Ma, who was about to leave, paused and said helplessly, "Xiao Chu, this is the last day. Can you be patient?"
"Not so good," Bai Jinshu said, his backpack on one shoulder, his tone dragging as if he was looking for trouble, "I can't stand him and I for even a second. I'm afraid we'll get into a fight outside. Otherwise, Teacher Ma, can you re-divide the groups?"
As soon as he said this, the other team members immediately knew what he was going to do.
Everyone present was an old team member. Even Lu Changfeng had seen how Brother Ao spoke differently to different people outside. They immediately cooperated tacitly and looked at Teacher Ma, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
With Yun Guang’s analysis in mind, if they lost their previous memories, they should not react rashly on the Sixth Day, otherwise the familiar unknown creatures would notice something unusual.
Since She Mochu took the initiative, he must have made some guesses about what I might have done in the past few days, so they just need to cooperate.
Teacher Ma was looked at like this by the students, and immediately pressed his forehead with a headache: "Before going out, the groups were reported to the school. This time it is a government tourism project. Xiaochu, you have to change groups on the last day. How do you write the group members on the report after you go back?"
"Just write it as you should," Bai Jinshu said in a lazy manner, with a salty tone that almost overflowed, "Anyway, I'm here just to gain experience. I don't have any lofty ideals. I promise that after graduation I will go home and live off my parents. I won't compete with you and won't take up your promotion spots."
He spread his hands, and it was obvious that the words "I am a loser, here to get a free project" were written on his face.
He didn't act like he was gambling on the probability. She Mochu was just a lazy person who would rather live a carefree life. Comic readers jokingly said that there were only two states of his life: a slacker and a madman. Even if the first five days that Yun Guang mentioned really existed, he would definitely not work diligently to do the work of a geography student going out into the wild.
What's more, the field report belonging to him in the Apple computer document was so clear that even Bai Jinshu, a layman, could understand it. Presumably, he would not have pretended to be a good student in the past few days.
As for why he spoke in this tone, Bai Jinshu also expressed that he was innocent.
It is said that eyes are the window of communication. Because of the special nature of She Mochu's pupils, he cannot look people in the eye. His face is so natural that it does not need any modification. How else can he speak?
"Xiao Chu," Teacher Ma couldn't help but said earnestly, "Yun Guang is also a senior brother who is several years older than you. In the past, he was the one who assisted and coordinated everyone's actions in such projects. What is the problem between you and him?"
It turns out that Yun Guang and She Mochu are in the same group.
The people behind him exchanged glances, and Yun Guang immediately cooperated by making a helpless expression and shook his head slightly at Teacher Ma.
"He's too serious," She Mochu said matter-of-factly, acting as if he was himself. "I'm just here to hang out. I don't have any academic aspirations. I really don't want to follow these good students and get into trouble. I'm like a napkin in the washing machine. If I get shredded, no one will have a good life."
Teacher Ma took a deep breath, greatly stimulated by this sentence.
"Then you will be in a group with Lu Changfeng," he said hastily, as if he couldn't bear it any longer. "Zhang Lu, who was originally in a group with Lu Changfeng, will be in a group with Yun Guang to do soil distribution. You and Lu Changfeng will do cave safety assessment. The remaining group will remain unchanged and focus on rock formation occurrence. Is that okay?"
Now the grouping has also come out.
Bai Jinshu and Lu Changfeng were doing safety assessments, Yun Guang and Zhang Lu were doing soil distribution, and the remaining Guan Hongyan and Li Ren were measuring rock formation conditions.
"Okay." Bai Jinshu stopped when he saw that things were going well, and put his hand on Lu Changfeng's shoulder, "Brother, don't drag me down. It's the last day, so let's part ways in peace. You don't have to write my name on the report later, just fill in that you completed it independently."
When Teacher Ma saw that the arrangements were completed, he hurriedly looked at his watch and didn't bother to waste any more time here, so he urged everyone to go out.
The cave is quite a distance away from the village, and the roads are narrow. Their off-road vehicle could not get there, so they had to take a van driven by a fellow villager.
The van cannot enter the mountain, and you have to walk a long distance after entering, which is a great test of your physical strength.
The long section of road leading into the mountain was initially blocked by weeds and branches. When the cave was first discovered, it was very difficult to get in and out. Later, when there was a plan to develop it into a scenic spot, a passable road was cleared for them to use for inspection.
These were all found out by the other team members while sitting in the cars of their fellow villagers along the way.
Bai Jinshu was dizzy from being shaken all the way. He leaned half-dead on Lu Changfeng's shoulder with his eyes half closed and dozed off. He didn't look like he was trying to gather any information. The word "confused" was really written on his face.
Teacher Ma was in high spirits along the way. From time to time, he made promises to the fellow villager who was driving, pointing to the surrounding roads and saying that a scenic spot would be developed here in the future, and which parts would become the main roads and which parts would need to be flattened. After a cement road was built here, there would be no need to drive back and forth on this dirt road every day.
The young man who was driving was extremely excited, and he even started discussing with Teacher Ma whether he should be a tour guide or a ticket seller for the scenic spot after it was completed.
"Become a ticket seller," Teacher Ma suggested, holding the handrail tightly to steady himself. "Tour guides need to take a special tour guide certificate, and they must have a high school or technical secondary school degree or above. It's illegal to be a tour guide, and you have to be fined if you're caught."
"I won't do such a shameful thing. Wild tour guides are all trying to cheat tourists out of their money. I know that," the driver shook his head like a rattle. "And Mr. Ma, even though I'm farming in the countryside now, I have a high school diploma and went to a high school in a town outside."
This is really a bit unexpected.
Teacher Ma held the handrail and couldn't help asking, "You've already gone to high school, why didn't you take the college entrance exam?"
Families in such a poor mountain village who can afford to send their children to high school have a certain vision and financial resources. This can be seen from the fact that only a few families in the entire village have cars. Moreover, he has passed the driving test, so how could he not go to college?
The driver touched his head sheepishly. "My grades were not good and I couldn't pass the exam. My dad was so angry that he said he would make me repeat the year. But in the end, my mom couldn't stand it anymore and said I wasn't cut out for studying. How could I compare with others in everything? It's good enough for my son to have a high school diploma. I shouldn't torture other people's teachers."
Teacher Ma nodded in understanding.
"But there are college students in our village too," the driver thought for a moment and said, "The one you saw on the first day you came here was him. He was admitted to a school in Beijing, and later became a doctor after graduation. I heard that he performs surgery on people in the capital."
"puff."
In the back seat, Bai Jinshu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
“Nothing, nothing, just keep talking.” When the driver turned around, he lowered his eyes and waved his hand. “I just think your choice of words is quite interesting.”
It's like he and Lu Changfeng are half-brothers.
This statement made a brain doctor who graduated from the capital city sound like a street thug who was hit on the head and sent to the police station.
Teacher Ma also turned his head and saw that Bai Jinshu looked unhappy and asked with concern: "Xiao Chu, are you carsick?"
"It's OK," Bai Jinshu said in a half-dead tone, "I ate too much this morning and my stomach feels uncomfortable."
Li Ren, who was sitting in the row in front of him: …
Isn’t that a bit too much?
Those few plates of pickles were simply not meant for human consumption. The others took a few bites with their chopsticks and showed the same painful expressions as him. Among all the people, only She Mochu ate with relish, which made people suspect that all his taste buds had left home.
He silently glanced at She Mochu, who was frowning and resting with his eyes closed in the back seat, and sighed in his heart that the perversion of this man's taste buds was directly proportional to his face.
Yun Guang seemed to want to say something, but because of the story Bai Jinshu had made up to obtain information, "he and Yun Guang didn't get along", he couldn't open his mouth. He could only raise his combat watch and tap on it a few times under the pretense of checking the time.
【Temporary Channel】: You can use this if you feel stomach discomfort.
[Temporary Channel]: Share link: [Miracle: Stomach-strengthening and Digestive Tablets]
There is actually something like this in the Foundation's mall...
Bai Jinshu poked his head out to glance at Yun Guang, this guy really is a good guy.
No wonder the other high-end team members would listen to him. He has a lot of experience, is a good guy, and will take the initiative to shoulder the burden of reminders and summaries in the group. He should have a good reputation in the entire circle. He is simply the opposite of Yang Pei.
Bai Jinshu casually clicked on Miracle, bought it and clicked to use it, and sure enough, he felt much better in his stomach.
【Temporary Channel】: Thank you.
While the two were communicating, other team members in the channel did not raise any other questions or opinions.
Bai Jinshu took back the task panel on his combat watch and gained a better understanding of the situation of the foundation's high-end team members.
Their attitude towards points seems to be very casual. They just use it as a circulating currency instead of accumulating or calculating it as a rare currency.
This can be seen from the reminder Yun Guang sent him this time.
Things like stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets are not only always available, but at least they can be bought everywhere. For low- and mid-level players, using points to buy such a miracle is simply incomprehensible.
Even if you are in a moving car and cannot leave, feeling a little uncomfortable after eating too much breakfast is just a small matter. You can just bear with it. There is no need to spend points to buy miracles.
But for high-end players, it seems that using points to buy these little things is very common, and the price and necessity are not important to them at all.
The level of exploration space is also a watershed for the exploration team members.
Below the watershed, even if you spend a dozen points to buy a stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablet, you still need to calculate carefully. Above the watershed, points are just a number and a concept, and you can use them however you want.
The points required to end the foundation contract and leave the exploration are not expensive, at least not expensive for anyone here. It is only 10 million, and any team member who is capable of coming to the high-end space can afford it.
For the foundation, it can only restrain the low- and middle-end explorers with few income points. In the eyes of high-end space exploration team members, this restriction is meaningless. They can leave whenever they want without any restrictions.
So why don't they leave...
Moreover, the foundation's attitude towards the players on both sides of the watershed is also very intriguing. Below the watershed, the players can only get a guaranteed score of up to six digits when exploring space.
Above the watershed, the points earned by the team members after completing their space exploration are converted into technical shares and divided into percentages.
In a sense, they have already left the realm of fixed salary and become shareholders like investors. For some special projects, investors even need to turn around and invite them to join.
As for this so-called foundation, I’m afraid that only by climbing up step by step, becoming a high-end member and gaining a foothold in the circle, can one see the hidden secrets within it.
The van drove to the end of the dirt road. Bai Jinshu collected his thoughts, picked up his backpack and prepared to get off the van.
The driver was very happy chatting with Teacher Ma along the way. When he got off the car, he couldn't help but sigh a few times: "Teacher Ma, you lived in the cave a few days ago. When I came to deliver supplies, you didn't say anything. I didn't know you were such a talkative person."
Teacher Ma pushed up his glasses and explained, "Time is tight and the task is heavy. I'm going to relax a little today when I'm almost leaving."
"Okay, then I won't send you in. I'll pick you up in the evening," the driver nodded, and after starting the car, he seemed to remember something and stuck his head out again, "By the way, Teacher Ma, didn't your student say he forgot to take the hoe he borrowed from the car yesterday? Remember to bring it back tonight."
Teacher Ma nodded: "Got it, see you tonight."
The driver drove the broken van back along the same route.
The members of the exploration team stood in front of the open space. As usual, Teacher Ma said a few words to encourage everyone, and then walked in front and entered the last section of the mountain road.
Everyone followed him. No one talked along the way and no accidents happened. At around ten o'clock in the morning, the group finally reached the end of this exploration.
A natural cave located in the mountains.
The caves now on display as scenic spots are all lit with colored lights for visual effects. Caves without lights look no different from ordinary caves from the outside. When you shine a flashlight, the stalactites and stalagmites in the caves appear dim under the light, reflecting layers of shadows and strange shapes.
Although the six people were divided into groups, in fact everyone's work area was in the same area. Those who came to conduct the investigation were all students, and the teacher in charge certainly did not dare to let them act separately, as he would not be able to take the responsibility if something went wrong.
Bai Jinshu carried his backpack and studied the geological map of the cave with Lu Changfeng, and got a general understanding of their next work content.
Basically, it is to confirm whether there are any dangerous paths in the planned tourist area, or whether there are things like broken stone pillars overhead.
Compared with the strong professionalism of the other two groups, the task of their group is very simple and rough. No wonder Bai Jinshu finds fault and Teacher Ma assigned him to work in this group.
After placing the backpacks in the area where supplies were stored, Bai Jinshu and Lu Changfeng began to observe along the route.
Compared to the previous [First Hospital] where a lot of rules were obtained as soon as entering, this high-end space not only has a strange name - [Those Who Abandoned Me], but also there has not been a single rule prompt so far.
From the uncle who delivered breakfast to the driver who drove up the mountain, the information that could be extracted from them had nothing to do with the rules. Teacher Ma, who was not a member of the exploration team, was picked on by Bai Jinshu, but he did not react like the unknown creatures in the previous space, but handled it reasonably.
Now all the remaining clues that might be related to the rules point to the focus of this investigation - the natural cave. Naturally, the two of them observed it carefully and seriously.
Uh...or rather, Lu Changfeng observed carefully and seriously.
Bai Jinshu followed behind him, really like a hands-off boss who came to get involved in the project, with his hands in his pockets, as if he didn't care about what was happening outside.
After observing a passage, Lu Changfeng turned around and saw this man doing nothing. He took out a piece of bubble gum from his pocket and was blowing bubbles. When he saw him stop, he asked him in confusion, "Why don't you move on? Keep going?"
Lu Changfeng: ...
"Um, Senior She," he said respectfully, "did you find anything?"
She Mochu: “No.”
He looked at his watch and said excitedly, "Oh, I noticed it's almost time for dinner. We can go back first."
"There are still five routes that we haven't finished observing," Lu Changfeng said anxiously while holding the map. "I've only finished one route this morning. How can I check five routes in one afternoon?"
It was his first time entering the high-end space, and he was already very nervous. Although the teammates he met were all good people, unlike Yang Pei last time, firstly, his brother Ao was not there, and secondly, he would face amnesia after entering, so he was naturally a little nervous.
"Why are you working so hard for an unknown creature? We're not really here for tourism and investigation," who would have thought that after hearing his words, the inhuman old team member She Mochu looked at him with disdain, "So dedicated? Do you love what you do?"
Lu Changfeng: “…I don’t have any.”
Could it be that She Mochu was telling the truth when he just said that he was a scoundrel? !
"The rules may be related to the cave," he didn't expect that a newcomer to the high-end space would have to explain things to the boss, "I wonder if I can get some information from the wall."
"Then take a closer look," She Mochu nodded nonchalantly and gave him a gesture to encourage him, "Come on."
Lu Changfeng: ???
He is the one who does that, what are you doing?
Even in the previous project where all the rules were pushed by Brother Ao, the other newcomers wouldn't be so bad!
Aren't all the high-end players designated as members? Why is there such a jerk?! ! !
As if she had heard his inner voice, Shemochu finally explained compassionately, "I can't see."
"Ah?" Lu Changfeng couldn't help but make a confused sound, "Are you blind?"
Even if you want to lie to him, don't use such a lame excuse, right? She Mochu didn't seem to be blind to it.
"No," She Mochu raised his head, revealing his strange eyes, "I am extremely nearsighted, and I can't see still objects."
In the dim environment, the pair of gray eyes seemed to glow, and the narrow vertical pupils divided the reflection of Lu Changfeng in the eyeball into two. She Mochu opened his eyes and stared at Lu Changfeng for a few seconds, making him sweat coldly on his back before lowering his eyelids again.
"So if you don't move ahead, I can't move," he continued.
Lu Changfeng was really confused now.
"Um...are these really snake eyes?"
He knew that snakes had poor eyesight and could only see moving things and could not capture static things.
"Guaranteed genuine," Shemochu said lazily, with his eyes downcast, "If you want, I'll pick a pair for you next time I see this kind of shoes, but I can't guarantee that the color will be what you like."
After hearing this, Lu Changfeng felt a chill on his back and couldn't help shaking his shoulders.
"Don't joke, Senior She..."
Ever since he found out that his eyes were no different from a snake's, he always felt that calling him "Senior She" was the same as calling him "Senior Snake".
Would anyone really take off their own eyes and replace them with snake eyes? Snake eyes are not much use compared to human eyes. And this thing is not a USB socket, so the two types of eyeballs are not compatible, right?
"If you think it's a joke, then take it as a joke," She Mochu was just a scoundrel, and he didn't want to argue. "It's still time to go back in time for dinner, and I don't want to eat cold dry food later."
The team leader, Mr. Ma, had a portable heating pot and brought a lot of concentrated freeze-dried soup. If they missed the meal, they could only eat the cold dry food and cold water in their backpacks.
"But I... can't get over this." Lu Changfeng was a little embarrassed.
The path they were taking was a very narrow one, with few stalactites on either side, and it was not on the work path. He came in mainly because he wanted to see if there were any murals inside.
Bai Jinshu didn't care about the map at all. He just followed Lu Changfeng, the only moving object in his sight, so naturally he didn't notice it.
Now the two of them were standing here, Lu Changfeng couldn't come over, and Bai Jinshu couldn't see Jingwu, so he didn't know how to go back.
"Don't you know how to rock climb?" Bai Jin said as a matter of course, "Just flip over from the top or the side."
"I know how to rock climb..." Lu Changfeng was stuck in the middle of his words and looked at She Mochu in shock, "Wait, how do you know I can rock climb?"
He never mentioned this matter after he entered this unknown space.
"Ah?" She Mochu also looked confused, "Didn't I tell you?"
Lu Changfeng: "What?"
"I said I knew Skao, your teammate in the last dungeon," he recalled, "Oh, I guess I didn't have time to tell him."
Lu Changfeng followed him and recalled the past. It was indeed as if when they first met, She Mochu suddenly became energetic when he heard his name. However, he was interrupted by the visitor halfway through saying "It's you".
So what he wanted to say was that he knew Brother Ao?!
"Senior She, you know Brother Ao! Do you know where he went?" Lu Changfeng couldn't help but ask.
He originally thought that his brother Ao would also be included in this project, so he came.
"He's on vacation," She Mochu's lazy tone disappeared when he talked about this topic, and he gritted his teeth and said with extreme envy and jealousy, "That's great, I also want to take a vacation, why don't I have this luck?"
You are just a slacker here now, isn't it just a vacation...
Lu Changfeng murmured a few words in his heart but did not dare to say them out loud.
This is someone his brother Ao knows. Who is his brother Ao? It is definitely not simple for She Mochu to know his brother Ao. And those weird eyes, if he really knows Ao, then it is not impossible that these eyes were really taken from a snake!
"Um... Senior She," he finally said weakly, "How about you move a little to the side and I'll climb over from the side and show you the way."
Lu Changfeng himself despises his own lackeys.
"Oh, go ahead." Bai Jinshu turned sideways and couldn't help but said, "Can you please stop calling me Senior She?"
It sounds so weird.
"This is respect." Lu Changfeng really respected people who knew his brother Ao: "What should I call you then?"
Bai Jinshu followed behind him, saying casually, "Xiao Chu? Everyone calls me that."
Lu Changfeng twisted his foot and said, "I dare not, I dare not."
"What about Xiao Mo?"
Lu Changfeng: "I don't dare anymore!"
"Then what do you call Skao?" He heard She Mochu's voice behind him, a little puzzled, "Don't you call him Xiao Ao?"
Lu Changfeng: ???
"No!" he said in shock, "I call him Brother Ao!"
How dare he call Xiao Ao? How come big guys always address each other like this?
"Then you can call me Brother Chu," She Mochu finalized the address behind him, "Although my last name is She, but Skao's last name is not Ao... You can laugh at him later."
Lu Changfeng didn't dare to say anything in front, and only dared to call silently after She Mochu decided on the name: "Brother Chu."
Bai Jin said: "This sounds much better now."
Lu Changfeng is a very handy little brother, especially in high-end space exploration. Except for him, all the other members are veterans, and no one else will be his tool man except Lu Changfeng. If possible, he still wants to continue to team up with Lu Changfeng.
Skao's favor is really useful. Since it's all his business anyway, Bai Jinshu doesn't feel embarrassed at all. He is even thinking about how to trick Lu Changfeng, the nurse, into entering the dungeon with his subsequent characters in the future.
Besides, Lu Changfeng won’t lose out either, as his good brothers will surely be everywhere in the foundation in the future.
Bai Jinshu unilaterally finalized the subsequent work plan for rice noodle rolls without any guilt.
The two of them walked out of the path one after the other. In the rest area outside, the team leader, Teacher Ma, had already set up a small pot.
The team members sat in a circle around the small pot. Teacher Ma seemed to be sorting out some materials. He moved a small stool and went to a place near the exit to work on his computer.
The members of the exploration team gathered together, and Yun Guang activated a miracle device that blocked out the sound. After confirming that Teacher Ma couldn't hear them, the six of them began to explain the clues they had discovered.
"We followed the map this morning and explored the route that needed to be checked," Lu Changfeng spoke first, "but there were no murals on either side of the cave, nor were there any signs of human intervention."
"We haven't either," Zhang Lu nodded, "It seems like this is just an ordinary cave. Brother Yun Guang and I used the elementary geography proficiency test and found nothing unusual at the academic level."
The [Elementary Geography Mastery] she mentioned is a miracle in the mall. It seems that these high-end team members are indeed very casual about using miracles. They have no intention of saving them for points and just use them when necessary.
"We have found something," Li Renju raised his hand. "After Guan Hongyan and I arrived here, Teacher Ma asked us to return the fellow villager's hoe. We didn't know where the hoe was, so we looked around and found this."
He took out a few broken wooden sticks, which should be the "hoe".
Guan Hongyan gestured to them and said, "This stick was about this long before. It broke because of a strong blow."
She demonstrated as she spoke, holding up two broken sticks for everyone to see: "There are only two possibilities for this fracture mark: someone took the stick and swung it at a hard object, causing the stick to break. Or someone held the stick with both hands and tried to bend it hard, but I don't think the latter is true."
She loosened her grip and showed everyone the marks on the edge of the stick: "There are tooth marks here. This thing has been bitten by some kind of beast."
In other words, their current situation may be due to some kind of beast attack yesterday.
Yun Guang removed the soundproofing props, walked up to Teacher Ma and asked, "Teacher, are there any wild animals in the mountains nearby at night?"
"Why would you ask such a question?" Teacher Ma said in confusion while typing on the keyboard. "Didn't I tell you this on the first day you came? No, don't worry. Otherwise, how could I dare to take you directly into the mountains?"
"I borrowed a hoe from a fellow villager yesterday and forgot to bring it with me," Yun Guang explained. "We looked around for it today but couldn't find it, so we suspected that a wild animal had taken the hoe away."
"Impossible, you must have forgotten where you put it," Teacher Ma denied it and said seriously, "If you really lost the item, remember to compensate the owner at the original price."
"Okay, we got it." Yun Guang walked back and spread his hands to everyone.
There are no ferocious beasts.
What are those teeth marks on the stick?
Zhang Lu had purchased the miracle of [Biological Mastery] before. She tried to use the miracle to identify the tooth marks on the wooden stick, but the result was that it could not be found.
This thing is not a kind of "living thing".
Several people looked at each other, it was obvious that the clues had reached a dead end. Bai Jinshu narrowed his eyes slightly and said nothing.
The lunch break was over and everyone was forced to start their afternoon work again.
Because of his relationship with Skao, Lu Changfeng and Bai Jinshu became closer. After checking the three routes, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Chu, did you find anything?"
He didn't blindly believe in the boss.
The main thing is that in the last project, Brother Ao was like this. When everyone was narrating the clues, he didn't say a word, and in the end he came up with the answer out of nowhere.
Just when everyone was worrying about the wooden stick, She Mochu, who was standing next to them, had an expression exactly the same as his brother Ao.
It's that look that says I know something but I won't say it.
Lu Changfeng couldn't help but asked when he was away from others.
"Yes," Bai Jinshu answered straightforwardly, "but I don't have enough evidence to speculate. And I hope it's not the case. It's best to leave here tomorrow."
Look, even his habit of not making speculations when there is insufficient evidence is the same as his brother Ao’s.
In his heart, Lu Changfeng silently improved the level of relationship between She Mochu and his brother Ao. The two bosses might really be good friends, or is it possible that they are members of the same explorer organization?
"Brother Chu, do you have anything to ask me?" Lu Changfeng said enthusiastically, "Brother Ao was like this before. He said that some information is hidden in clues and needs to be summarized."
As soon as he said this he knew he had done something stupid again.
Everyone here is a high-end space team member, so they are naturally familiar with the little tricks of these exploration rules. Just now, when all of them got together to talk about the process of discovery, wasn't that just summarizing information?
"I really have something to ask you." Who would have thought that She Mochu would reply, "When you woke up this morning, did you notice anything unusual about the ceiling and corners of your room?"
"The ceiling... the corner..." Lu Changfeng repeated the two pieces of information, "Brother Chu, what abnormalities are you referring to?"
He didn't follow the boss's train of thought.
"In terms of construction," She Mochu spoke much faster, "are there any signs of corners and ceilings being filled with mud or something like that to form rounded corners, or are there any signs of holes being smashed out with tools to destroy the angular structure?"
"I don't remember clearly..." Lu Changfeng tried hard to recall for a long time, and finally said in disappointment, "As soon as I woke up, I hurried out to look for you, and didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment at all."
"Brother Chu? Is this clue important?" He touched his head a little ashamedly, "Why don't we ask other people if they noticed it?"
"No need," She Mochu put his hands in his pockets, chewed his gum and slowly blew a bubble, "Just go back and look at it, there's no rush."
When it was night, several people returned to the small courtyard where they were staying temporarily. Teacher Ma said something exciting, saying that we could go back to school tomorrow and so on. Then Yun Guang organized everyone to summarize the clues as usual.
It's very strange that no one has made any breakthrough discovery today. Everyone's discoveries cannot be connected together and are all scattered information.
At the end, Yun Guang frowned slightly and said, "In this case, we must consider a possibility. Is it possible that the four team members who lost contact were not assigned to Team B, but died a few days ago?"
"And," his tone became more serious, "this also means that we have been in here for five days, and we lost four teammates in these five days. We didn't discover any rules, and we even broke a rule on the fifth day and had our memory wiped."
Everyone present here is an experienced high-end team member, and no one has ever experienced such an extreme situation of not getting any results five days into the project.
But no matter what, you still have to sleep.
Everyone returned to their rooms with their own thoughts, closed the doors and fell into an uneasy sleep.

the next day.
The uncle who came to deliver breakfast patted the wooden door of the courtyard.
Lu Changfeng got up the earliest. He trotted to open the door of the courtyard.
The uncle still looked the same, holding a large tray in his hand, with seven bowls of porridge and a few plates of pickles on the tray.
Seeing Lu Changfeng opening the door, he greeted him cheerfully: "Hey, am I here too early today? Everyone is still asleep."
He placed the porridge on the table, wiped his hands on his apron and sighed, "Our conditions are like this. I feel bad for letting you eat porridge and pickles for five days. Fortunately, the bridge outside is almost finished. In one day, it will be passable. You can leave the day after tomorrow morning."
"the day after tomorrow".
Lu Changfeng suddenly froze in place.
He remembered what Shemochu said yesterday after the exploration team members had summarized all the rules -
"That's the current situation. Is there anything else you want to add?" Yun Guang looked at everyone and asked as usual.
"I have." She Mochu, who was sitting at the back and making crickets out of straw stems, suddenly spoke up.
"I have a miracle of charging by the hour." Under everyone's gaze, he lazily raised his eyes and scanned everyone present. "After entering the exploration, it is set to automatically deduct fees by default."
"From the time I entered the space until now, it has only deducted 17 hours of my points."
"If you have gone through the first five days, then the points that will be deducted now will be at least 137 hours, and the foundation's deduction system will not have any problems."
"So I proposed a third hypothesis besides the two guesses of 'We can't leave the mountain village tomorrow' and 'We have lost our memories, and today is the sixth day'."
"Is there a possibility?" He threw the cricket in his hand into Lu Changfeng's arms and stood up and said, "The time in this copy is flowing backwards."
The author has something to say:
By the end of this article, Lu Changfeng may have gained a good brother from the foundation (x
The core mechanism of this dungeon is out. Time flows backwards. Someone in the previous comments guessed it. If you don't understand this mechanism, you can look at the hand-drawn diagram I posted on wb@月渡寒塘含糖
By the way, thanks to the pretty girl for airdropping 1334 moonstones on the 29th and 3296 moonstones on the 30th. How do you have so many moonstones?
