Otherworld Management Manual

Everyone is very cautious, Zhang Feng is also highly concentrated, ready to take out his "all beings are equal 686" at any time.

After passing the big flat rock, it was the camp of Niujiaoniang and the others.

This is a dilapidated, simple camp.

There was a stove made of mud, a tent with several holes in it, a cart without wheels, and a broken red pennant...

But no orcs.

Marlow came to an open-air stove, knelt down to scrape away the snow, squeezed the black residue in the stove, and said:

"Look at this trace... They should have disappeared for a long time!"

Fox Er Niang closed her eyes to feel it, but finally shook her head helplessly.

Niujiaoniang's eyes were red, and she tightly covered her mouth to prevent herself from crying.

Zhang Feng shook his head, this kind of thing is really not comforting.

At present, it seems that these orcs should be more ominous than ominous.

"It's kind of weird..."

Marlowe said suddenly.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Feng asked suspiciously.

"There are no traces of fighting here. It stands to reason that they are more likely to leave by themselves..."

Hearing Marlowe's words, the horned girl's eyes suddenly shone with hope.

They left by themselves? not dead?

Then, what Marlowe said later shattered her hope in an instant.

"However, they don't seem to have taken anything..."

Marlowe opened the tent, and Zhang Feng and others saw that there were still a lot of daily necessities in the tent.

"Especially food, which is the most precious thing in winter, and no one took it away! So, I say it's a bit strange..."

Marlowe frowned, somewhat wondering what had happened here.

"You mean the orcs here left without taking anything?"

Zhang Feng asked again.

"Yes, that's what it means, but this is the best situation so far..."

Marlowe didn't say what he said afterwards, but there were no fools present, and they all understood what he meant.

It is the best situation if no corpses are seen, at least it seems that there is still a glimmer of life. Although the probability of these orcs surviving is very small, at least there is hope here.

Niujiaoniang gradually stabilized her emotions, but her expression was still desperate.

The lion orc strode over. Compared to Niujiaoniang, he was much calmer, although his face was equally ugly.

"Could it be captured by the slave arrest team?"

Felix remembered his own experience, that is, he was deceived by humans. It is not impossible for these orcs to be tricked out and then ambushed by slave catchers.

"Probably not. The largest slave hunting team in the vicinity should be the slave hunting team of Moore City, but in this season, even the slave hunting team of Moore City dare not go out..."

Marlowe shook his head.

If it was sunny, there were still some possibilities, but judging from these traces, these orcs had disappeared for some time. It was still snowing heavily at that time, and the sunny days were only a few days ago, and the time was not right.

"It's impossible to leave by myself, right? Even if you leave, it's impossible not to take the food with you. I borrowed the food from some human caravans."

Felix looked at the familiar pile of grain and said.

Logically speaking, these grains are not enough for the whole winter, but there is still a lot left. Calculating the time, it should be about a month ago. At that time, the snow was falling heavily.

"You said, is it possible that it is the slave catcher on the other side?"

Zhang Feng suddenly pointed to the west.

Everyone was taken aback.

West of the Firewing Mountains?

"Zhang Feng, you mean Luoyan Kingdom?"

The fox-eared lady opened her mouth slightly. The Firewing Mountain Range is the dividing line between the Kingdom of Baker and the Kingdom of Luoyan. The west of the mountain range is the Kingdom of Luoyan, and the east is the Kingdom of Buck.

"Yes, although I don't know the overall strength of King Luoyan and whether the slave catcher team has the ability to come here, but this is also a possibility, isn't it?"

Zhang Feng shrugged.

"It seems to be possible...but I have never been to Luoyan Kingdom, so I am not familiar with it..."

"I haven't been there either..."

Everyone shook their heads. Many of them hadn't even visited Buck's Kingdom. The Luoyan Kingdom on the other side of the Firewing Mountain Range was really far away.

"If they really captured my people, I, I will definitely make them pay the price! I'm going to Luoyan Kingdom!"

Niujiaoniang clenched her fists and spoke bitterly.

"Then you were arrested by the slave arrest team."

Zhang Feng spoke angrily.

Niujiao Niang: "..."

"Don't be impulsive, this is just my guess, maybe they just found a better place to live... Forget it, I don't believe it myself, so let's look separately and see if there are any clues here, Oh, by the way, don't go too far away!"

"Yes!"

Everyone immediately started to split up.

The Fire Wing Mountain Range is huge, and it is impossible for someone like Zhang Feng to turn the Fire Wing Mountain Range upside down. He can only take this camp as the center and look around slowly. If no clues are found before dark, Zhang Feng will He ordered the evacuation. He couldn't put himself in danger for these orcs who didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

Although he has not encountered any danger now, Zhang Feng does not think that the Fire Wing Mountain Range is so simple, otherwise there would have been caravans opening up business routes from here.

Two hours later, no one found anything.

However, no discovery is the greatest discovery.

If it was really a slave hunting team, even if these orcs were tricked out, they would definitely fight, but there is no trace of fighting around here.

"Could it be possible that these orcs were tricked away? With the IQ of orcs, it doesn't seem impossible..."

Zhang Feng subconsciously talked to himself, but after feeling the resentful eyes behind him, Zhang Feng quickly changed his words:

"Ahem, that's not right. Some orcs are still very smart. For example, our little Tang and little Amy are very smart."

After hearing these words, Hu'er Niang and Lang'er Niang hugged Zhang Feng's arm tightly.

However, the atmosphere is not suitable now, and the three of them did not interact much.

"Zhang Feng, let me take you to see the crystal mine first."

The horned lady came over.

"it is good!"

Zhang Feng was a little surprised. At this time, Niujiaoniang hadn't forgotten her promise!

I have to say that her character is indeed very good.

"But don't worry, I will pay attention to the situation here. I will issue a mission when I go back to collect the news here. Whether these orcs are dead or alive, I will try my best to give you an answer."

"thanks!"

In fact, Niujiaoniang has no hope. Now that the places that can be found are almost the same, if she can't find it at this time, it is most likely that there is a lot of bad luck.

As for Zhang Feng's commitment, it was signed a contract, Niu Jiao Niang naturally did not forget, besides, she is not a person who promises what she says.

Zhang Feng called the crowd together, and Niu Jiao Niang led the way, turning around and walking for an hour before arriving at the destination.

"is it here?"

Looking at the huge cave in front of him, Zhang Feng always felt that the wind was blowing, a little penetrating.

"Well, I found crystals here at the time, and there were more than one. The crystal mine you are talking about should be this..."

Niujiaoniang pointed to the black hole and said.

"Why don't you mine?"

Zhang Feng was a little curious. If they could occupy a crystal mine, then the lives of their orcs would definitely improve a lot. No, this is no longer an improvement, but an earth-shaking change. After all, crystals are a luxury sought after by nobles!

"We're not good at mining, and... if we really occupy this crystal mine, we may not only be waiting for slave catchers..."

Niujiaoniang's eyes were full of loneliness.

Zhang Feng immediately understood that the orcs were really not good at mining, they had to be commanded by a special person, and this kind of crystal mine was very expensive, unlike those metal mines, it was enough to extract the raw ore for smelting.

The crystal mine looks like it is mined, and the crystal is very fragile. If there is no technology, it may be a pile of crystal slag when mined.

Of course, this is not the most important reason.

If these orcs mine the crystal mine and expose it, it will definitely cause the madness of the human beings, and various disputes often occur in the owner's mine. This kind of mine that is not at the level of the Buck Kingdom will definitely become a must for those big nobles. place.

At that time, what is waiting is not the slave hunting team, but the private soldiers of the nobles! It is not impossible to even attract the regular armies of the two countries!

Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty!

Zhang Feng was really surprised that Niujiaoniang could see this.

But as if she knew what Zhang Feng was thinking, Niujiaoniang pointed to Felix who had not spoken.

"That's what Felix taught me."

Zhang Feng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this man who looked like a big boss was a lion orc, and his thoughts were surprisingly delicate. With such enviable benefits in front of him, he could hold back!

To be honest, everyone understands the truth, but it is rare and valuable to be able to restrain one's desires.

It seems that this Felix is ​​not simple!

Therefore, Zhang Feng chose to enter.

Only those who have no strength can restrain themselves. Of course, those who have strength can occupy everything.

And this is no ordinary crystal mine, this is a mysterious crystal, which contains the mysterious power that witches need!

The orcs were still leading the way, and Zhang Feng was protected in the middle. With the light of the torch, he could clearly see that the cave was going downwards. It was very large, but there were no other characteristics.

It's just that the further you go in, the more the sulfurous smell unique to the Firewing Mountain Range becomes stronger.

"This...isn't there magma underneath?"

Zhang Feng was a little scared, but he was here, so he couldn't be cowardly!

The group of people walked for an hour before reaching the end. Zhang Feng originally thought that the entrance of the cave outside was big enough, but he didn't expect that the cave was like a pocket, and the inside was getting bigger and bigger.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it was formed naturally. Could it be that there were people or orcs living here before?

Zhang Feng was a little curious, but he hadn't encountered any situation so far, which made him feel a little relieved.

"Um?"

Marlow squatted down, picked up a shiny object and handed it to Zhang Feng.

"My lord, gold."

"Huh? There is gold!"

Zhang Feng was surprised, because this was not gold ore, but already refined, gleaming gold!

"There is such a thing in this cave?"

Zhang Feng looked at Niujiaoniang and Felix strangely.

"This... I have been here before, and I didn't find it!"

The two were also very confused. If they really saw this kind of finished gold, they would definitely not let it go. After all, this is hard currency! Just such a small piece will definitely improve their lives a lot!

Niujiaoniang even had some doubts, did she really miss it before?

However, this is just the beginning.

"Eh? There's gold!"

"This is... a sapphire!"

"..."

Everyone has discovered something.

"What is this? Crystal? It doesn't look like it!"

The fox-eared lady was curious about holding a red transparent stone the size of a goose egg.

"Let me see."

After Zhang Feng was about to come over, he looked at the red transparent crystal with many faces, and said in shock:

"This...diamond! My God, it's so big!"

"Huh? Diamonds? Are they precious?"

Several people looked at Zhang Feng, and they still rarely saw things that could make Zhang Feng lose his composure.

"How should I put it, this kind of thing itself is not very valuable because it has a lot of reserves, but in my hometown, diamonds are given the name of love by those profiteers and become so-called tokens of love..."

"In addition, they hold the mining rights, so this kind of diamond is very expensive, especially this big one, it is estimated to be about the same as our largest diamond 'Cullinan'!"

"And this diamond is the most precious red diamond among all diamonds! If I take it home, those people will go crazy..."

Zhang Feng explained with some regret.

Many people don't understand it well, and Miss Hu'er doesn't understand it either, but she understands the words "love" and "a token of love".

"Hey, Zhang Feng, I picked up this diamond, does it belong to me?"

Hu Erniang stood in front of Zhang Feng with her hands behind her back and asked.

"certainly."

Zhang Feng smiled and was about to return the diamond to Hu Erniang. Although the diamond shocked him, to Zhang Feng, the mysterious crystal was more important. Besides, it was originally picked up by Hu Erniang. , Zhang Feng naturally would not refuse to give it.

But the fox-eared lady didn't answer.

"Since it's mine, I'll give it to you!"

The fox-eared lady smiled happily.

"Why did you give it to me?"

Zhang Feng was a little strange.

"Just say whether you want it or not."

The fox-eared lady made a fool of herself.

"You gave it, of course I want it."

Zhang Feng nodded.

"Hee hee, then it's a deal!"

"What's settled?"

"This is a token of love that represents love!"

Hu Er Niang looked at Zhang Feng with watery eyes, a little shy on her small face.

"Ah this..."

The wolf-eared lady next to her turned around and left, she was going to find the diamond.

...

...

"Oh my God!"

Everyone was stunned when they saw what was in front of them.

A hill!

A hill made of all kinds of colorful gems and gold coins!

"What are you doing in a daze, pack it up and take it away!"

Zhang Feng hurriedly greeted everyone.

One or two, Zhang Feng may not care, but there are so many, as long as there is no problem with the brain, they must be taken home. If the mysterious crystal mine is not found, it is not a loss to find these!

As for the question of whether there is a master here, the answer is yes, but so what if there is a master, anyway, there is no one now, if you don't protect yourself, don't blame Zhang Feng.

If someone stopped him before he came in, Zhang Feng would definitely not come in again, but now——moving is over!

"Huh? This...is a mysterious crystal!"

Moreover, Zhang Feng also discovered mysterious crystals. These mysterious crystals are right next to this "gem mountain". If you don't look carefully, you really ignore them.

These crystals seem to be in good condition, and there are quite a few of them. There are hundreds of them, big and small.

Zhang Feng hurriedly installed all these mysterious crystals.

The mysterious crystal mine has not been found yet, it is too big! It would be nice to have these mystic crystals! There will be plenty of time to come back later!

There are many people and strength, and there are many gems and gold, but with the efforts of so many orcs and wolf cavalry, they were quickly emptied.

Zhang Feng looked at his watch, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was getting dark.

"Go, let's go back!"

"Yes!"

The cave can still go down, but now the smell of sulfur is getting stronger and stronger, Zhang Feng guessed that the bottom is definitely magma, there is no need to take any more risks, today's harvest is already sufficient.

By the time everyone came to the entrance of the cave, it was already dark.

"Today's expedition ends here. Let's go back to Hongye City first. As for the situation of these orcs, I will pay attention."

Neither the Niujiaoniang nor the lion orc had any objection. They had seen too many things about life and death. They couldn't say they were used to it, but they could bear it.

rumbling~

In the twilight, "Red Leaf Steam No. 1" slowly disappeared in the Firewing Mountain Range.

At the same time, in the deepest part of the cave in the Huoyi Mountain Range, that is a place like an abyss. If Zhang Feng can get here, he will find that it is similar to what he imagined, a piece of fiery red magma!

The magma is bubbling from time to time, and the thick sulfur smell pervades the air.

Sudden.

clatter~

The magma separates.

brush!

A huge yellow vertical pupil appeared!
