"We can go out from here and hide near Baquan Town. Can't we go back and forth here every day to explore on missions?"
A group of people compromised angrily, softened their tone and began to discuss.
But Yin Rujin always had only one answer.
"I'm sorry, but the official requirement is not to cause a disturbance, so I can't make the decision."
This is a business deal, and employer requirements come first.
As for the executor, he is just a person who has signed a contract to sell himself and has no right to choose.
Everyone realized belatedly that they were powerless to resist, and could only disperse with gloomy faces and cursing, and sit aside to rest.
Ye Lan and his group moved closer to the mud house, sat in the shade, and replenished their water.
"One, two, three, four..." The electric eel counted the teams near and far, his face pale as he said, "Including us, there are only five teams left. There were at least fifteen teams before we set out. No wonder they said they were a man-eating ghost valley, where no one who enters can leave alive. It seems our chances of completing the mission are less than 10% right now."
He hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Ye Lan and said, "You can see the dead energy, which means you are from Xuanmen. So you should be able to take us away from here, right?"
His meaning was obvious; he didn't want to take any more risks here.
Ye Lan looked up at him, but before she could answer, Hong Qing, who was standing beside her, interrupted her with a smile.
"If you leave, you'll be the first one to be blacklisted from the forum. Is that okay?"
“…”
The electric eel choked and then remembered what had happened and immediately became listless again.
The hope that had originally lit up the eyes of Lei Zi and others quickly dimmed. After all, they couldn't afford to offend an organization like the Dark Web, and they would probably be dealt with as soon as they went out.
It is better to live here a little longer than to die early or late.
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly walked over along the wall. When Lei Zi and others took out their guns and prepared to aim, a huge suction force directly took away all their pistols.
“!!!”
call.
The skinny man whistled, grabbed a dozen guns in his hands, and threw them on the ground like scrap metal. He called out to Xiao Yunting, "Brother, do you want to join forces? I don't have many people here. If we find the stuff, just take 200 million."
Xiao Yunting glanced at him sideways, remembering that there was a disguised smuggler in the other team, so he lowered his eyes to look at Ye Lan.
Seeing this, the skinny monkey whistled again, his tone somewhat surprised.
"Wow! It turns out that this beautiful lady is the one in charge. I'm sorry." They are all old hands with good eyes. The skinny monkey immediately turned his gaze to Ye Lan.
"To be honest, I just saw that your team was the first to retreat, and they marched all the way to the valley without hesitation, proving that you were the first to know that there was a problem with the tomb entrance. We currently have three cultivators in our team, which is enough to protect ourselves during our movements and will also increase your combat power. What do you think of these alliance terms?"
The other party spoke frankly enough and explained the situation clearly.
Ye Lan's insight was no worse than Xiao Yunting's, so he naturally knew that the other party was not lying, and nodded without much hesitation.
When the skinny monkey happily called his companions over, curses were heard from a team not far away.
Everyone looked up and saw that it was the big man who had also spoken out against Yin Ruijin last night.
The other party obviously also had their eyes on Ye Lan's team, but was beaten to it by Skinny Monkey. He felt that 500 million points were too much and there was no point in doing it, so he had to settle for the second best and look for other teams to cooperate with.
Soon, five teams became three teams.
After a simple lunch, everyone discussed solutions together again.
"The only way to leave here now is to find a mineral vein and stay away from the tomb dunes." The skinny monkey handed over their clues, which were the approximate location and size of the tomb, as well as the location of the river veins formed by the direction of the mountain. "Logically, there should be a rich water system here. Our geography professor checked and found at least three, the closest one is right under our feet. The place where the other group blew up the pit this morning is the weakest geological layer. The other two are very far away. I don't recommend going there. The risk is probably too high."
After experiencing the Red Crowned Snake, they now don’t want to leave Ghost Valley at all.
Xie Chenan also briefly explained his findings, and the views of both sides coincided.
Just when everyone had almost unanimously decided to look for the water system, a hoarse and deep male voice interrupted.
"I still think that the ancient tomb is the key to solving the problem."
Ye Lan raised his eyes slightly and looked at the person who was speaking. It was the disguised person.
At this time, he was hunched over, short in stature, and had a pockmarked face that made people feel a little disgusted, and he was often ignored in the team.
Seeing him interrupting for no reason, the skinny monkey was a little displeased, "You saw the snakes in the tomb, who dares to go down there?"
Ma Zi pulled a hand out of his pocket and pointed at a few locations on the map. "Besides where we just went, there are other entrances where we can dig. This tomb happens to cover this section of the water system. I don't think it's a coincidence."
Hearing this, the skinny monkey didn't care. "Then I'd rather go blow up the pit. If you want to die, go ahead."
After saying that, he patted his butt, stood up, went to the car to get a bundle of detonators and walked towards the back of the valley.
Ma Zi's face suddenly turned ugly, but seeing that no one around agreed with him, he could only follow everyone's actions silently.
"It seems that this group of smugglers is coming for the ancient tomb."
"It's obvious. The painting is so detailed. He must have been in the same industry as Lei Zi."
'But he has a point.'
"Let's wait and see what happens. Let's go over and take a look first."
Ye Lan and the other three walked in front, using internal energy to communicate and they also found out the purpose of this group of people.
