Rescue System: Fleeing Host, calm down

Chapter 289 Building Stones

At this time, Azhong, dressed in smart clothes, came to the door of the second floor and knocked on the door.

The sounds are three long and two short.

"Enter!"

Hearing the voice, Gu Ming knew that he was back, so she suppressed her voice and replied.

After Ah Zhong came in and closed the door, Yang Zhihuan couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? Where did that group of kidnappers sell the kidnapped children?"

Azhong cupped his fists and saluted respectfully, and looked at Yang Zhihuan, "Returning to Minister Yang, according to the people who were followed by my subordinates just now, the child was not sold to the local wealthy family, and there may be something fishy about it."

"What's going on?"

Gu Mingmin noticed the deep meaning in Azhong's tone.

"This may not be an ordinary child abduction incident. My subordinates followed the group into a luxurious house. The house was heavily guarded and for fear of being discovered, they did not dare to rush forward rashly. They only went in after dark to investigate.

.

The result was very strange. The subordinates had been waiting outside. Brothers were guarding the back door and the corner door. During this period, no children went out or suspicious items were shipped out. After entering, no trace of the children was found. The subordinates suspected that they had transferred people through a secret passage.

.”

Hearing this, Gu Ming frowned deeply. What do these people want to do by secretly arresting so many children?

Still doing it so strictly?

There is something unusually strange about this incident.

"Could it be that wealthy families took in their children and then secretly trained them to be secret guards or dead soldiers?"

Yang Zhihuan guessed.

Zeng Quan shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not that simple. If a family wants to train secret guards or dead soldiers, they can do so openly. Luoyang City is not like Kyoto where they need to avoid taboos. This place is already within their control, so there is no need to do anything.

So mysterious.”

"Zhong, please send someone to keep an eye on the house and find out which aristocratic family the house belongs to."

After Azhong took the order and went out, Gu Ming said to the two of them: "We need to check the details of the local contact person again. There must be some clues that we have overlooked."

"I will arrange this matter." Yang Zhihuan really couldn't bear to sit around and wait for death, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to investigate the matter.

Immediately, Gu Ming's eyes met Zeng Quan's again, and when he saw the other person nodded in understanding, he did not speak again.

He really should investigate the three major aristocratic families. I hope he is overthinking.

There is no rush to investigate this matter slowly. The most important thing now is to find the little prince.

When they found the human abductor, there was no little girl holding the baby as the children said. Because there was no trace of the little prince, Gu Ming suggested that they continue trading in the hope of making a profit. Unexpectedly, they lost the kidnapper.

Now that the situation has become complicated, they cannot act rashly.

The little prince is missing and needs to be searched, and the whereabouts of the children who were sold must also be followed up.

Gu Ming rubbed his eyebrows. It seemed that he needed to send more manpower. The matter in Luoyang City might involve some secrets.

If it wasn't for the little prince, he really didn't want to confront these people at this juncture.

Just in case, the power of Fuxi Fort may be used to contain one or two.

If Cheng Xiaoxiao were here, he would definitely despise and laugh at them. I have the baby you are looking for, but you don’t know whose family the baby you are looking for belongs to?

What are you fussing over?

At this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao was wearing a down jacket inside and a thick cotton-padded jacket outside. She was walking in the snow full of thorn traps. It was very laborious to walk one foot deep and one foot shallow, and the sweat on her forehead wet the broken hair on her forehead.

They are currently on the inner edge of Daxing Mountain, halfway up a hillside, and are moving forward with difficulty.

At first, everyone was afraid of encountering wolves, or blind bears, etc. However, after walking for two hours, they encountered nothing, not even a living creature, and gradually let down their guard.

It was half an hour after we finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

To everyone's delight, the further you go inside, the higher the temperature becomes.

Now the temperature in Yuanyang City is about ten degrees below zero during the day, and the temperature in Taohua Village is also about ten degrees below zero, and now their location is basically around zero degrees.

After simply eating some dry food and walking for a long distance, I felt that the temperature had been rising. Now everyone was sweating and panting, and the big coats they wore outside could hardly be worn.

"Captain, why don't you take a break?" The one who spoke was Cheng Dawei. He wanted to take off his clothes, but he didn't dare with the captain around.

This time Cheng Xiaoxiao did not let Cheng Beiniu lead the team and asked him to stay behind to prevent anything happening to the Han family.

We also brought Fang Zheng, Quan Bin, Tieniu and Yang Fan.

At this time, the excitement system had exploded in Cheng Xiaoxiao's mind.

Deep in Daxing Mountain, there is indeed a sleeping volcano, so the temperature around Daxing Mountain is higher than other places.

Even the flying snow here is smaller than outside. It is really a good place.

Cheng Xiaoxiao stopped and said, "Okay, let's take a rest and eat some dry food to replenish our strength."

While people are resting, their minds are constantly checking and communicating with the system to find suitable construction sites.

This time the system also spent a lot of energy, constantly scanning and analyzing the underground rock layers, hoping to find a suitable location.

The geology here has been accumulated for countless years and is rich in minerals. In nature, we can see all kinds of minerals: some are hard in texture, some are soft; some are bright in color, with different images, and there are many types.

They are the material basis of the earth's crust.

Exploring deeper is the rock layer, which is a solid composed of one or more minerals, but it does not have the basic properties of minerals. The difference between rocks and minerals is like the difference between airplane models and the materials used to make them.

difference between.

Just as the building blocks of rocks are minerals, the building blocks of airplane models are tires, wings, engines and other components.

According to the systematic description, the rock's shape, color, and particle size make Cheng Xiaoxiao feel that it is more like metamorphic rock than sedimentary rock.

Marble, which was widely used in construction in previous generations, is a type of metamorphic rock.

Marble is not very hard, easy to carve, and very beautiful after polishing. It is often used as craft decorations and building stones.

In ancient times when there was no reinforced concrete, it was best to use marble to build underground cities.

"It's really a good place inside, the temperature is much higher than outside." Quanbin couldn't help but sigh.

If they could really build an underground city in such a boundary, they would be able to escape a snowstorm and cold wave.

Yang Fan looked around with mixed emotions, "Yes, I have lived in Yuanyang City for so many years, but I didn't know that there was such a scenery in the depths of Daxing Mountain. In the past, there were many prey and large beasts in Daxing Mountain, so I didn't dare to go deep into it.

.”

It was also his first time to enter the inner area of ​​Daxing Mountain. It had been more than half a day since he came in from Taoyuan Village, and the originally dense forest had disappeared.

Although the flying snow is still falling, it can be seen from the gaps between the trees that the surrounding vegetation is decreasing, the snow is getting shallower and shallower, and the mountains and rocks are steep, overlapping, numerous and strangely shaped.

What a magical place.
