Chapter 289 Snake Bone Mine

The Snake Bone Mine Cave is a bit far from Hime Village. Because of the unfamiliarity with the terrain and the thunderstorm shows no signs of relief, Lin Yan took four hours to reach his destination.

The first thing Lin Yan did when he came to the snake bone mine was to find a place that could not penetrate the rain and had a meal. Because it was always dark, Lin Yan, who had not yet brought a pocket watch, had no idea of ​​time at all.

After eating and drinking, Lin Yan began to look for residential areas marked on the map. It was said to be residential areas, but in fact there were only three wooden houses in total. These wooden houses were lived by workers working in the snake bone mine cave.

Most of these workers are villagers in Feimu Village. Because the mine is very long from the village, they think they move back and forth every day, so they simply build three wooden houses near the mine. Although the environment is a little worse, they can still live in it.

Maybe the signs on the map are not accurate, so it took Lin Yan a lot of time to find the three wooden houses. Moreover, the environment was very dark on thunderstorms. Even if the wooden houses were placed in front of him, he would still not be able to find them if he didn't get close to observation.

Strangely, these wooden houses seem to be like Himemu Village, and no one lives in it because there is no light. In such a dim environment, if someone lives in it, they will definitely light it, but now there is no light in the wooden house.

Lin Yan, who originally thought he could find a living person here, was extremely disappointed, so he could only see if he could find some useful clues nearby.

There are many tools used for mining scattered around the wooden house, and the devices used to transport minerals are also placed inside the mine cave, without any signs of being demolished, which means that the people here did not disappear naturally, and must have encountered something incomprehensible.

In front of the guardrail around a wooden house, Lin Yan saw a note, but the note was completely soaked by rain, and even the words on it were washed a little blurred. Fortunately, the content above can still be seen clearly with the light of the torch.

[Urgent! Recently, the god of evil spirits has caused trouble throughout the island, and rebels invaded the Coral Palace. Miners, families and other crown princesses please evacuate the island in an orderly manner as soon as possible! Life is at stake, and 100,000 are urgent! Residents should not panic. The Lord Jiuzhao Tianling practices filial piety and feels the pain of the refugees on the Bafeng Island, so I come to rescue them. If you need help in urgent need, please come to Jiuzhao Frontier Camp. Tianling practices will definitely escort you to leave the island safely.]

It can be seen that this is an emergency notice from Tianling to the residents of Baqing Island. The rough content is that the gods and coral palace rebels have recently caused rebellion on Baqing Island, so the residents on the island quickly evacuated the island and went to Jiuzhao Formation House to receive the help of Tianling Island.

In other words, is it that the reason why there is no living person in Baqing Island and Snake Bone Mine Cave is that they have taken refuge from the island? That makes sense.

But...what is the god of horror mentioned in this announcement? You can tell from the name that it is a bad thing, but what exactly will it be?

The first thing Lin Yan thought of was the strange black aura that appeared everywhere in the continent. Because it also appeared on Baqing Island, it was very likely that it was the god of horror mentioned by Tianling Fengxing.

Like the karma on the body of the elbow, the root of power between the two is the same, but different regions have different names.

In other words, nothing happened on Baqing Island. The reason why they couldn't even see a single person was because the residents on the island went to take refuge, which made Lin Yan think something amazing happened on the island.

In addition, Lin Yan also saw another note on the other side of the guardrail. The content on the note was: [Crown Prince who is still on the island, please open your eyes and see! Since His Highness of the Great Imperial Office is invincible, why not face your question yourself? Why should you let the young man die for her and let mortals kill each other? Look, your Highness of the Great Imperial Office has been blinded. When did she care about your situation? We are the victims of the [Eye Hunting Order], and we are also suffering setbacks in troubled times! As brothers and sisters, please be sure to join hands with us! Bravely give your advice to His Highness of the Great Imperial Office!]

This seems to be a flyer from the Coral Palace Resistance Army. The content is also very simple. It is to call on the residents of Baqing Island to resist the Eye Hunting Order, but not everyone has the courage to make this decision against the gods.

Apart from these two notes, there is nothing worth investigating around the wooden house... No, there are two shrines, which are built in a relatively hidden location, so it is difficult to be discovered.

One of the shrines is on the back of the wooden house. Its surface is very simple and elegant. The wooden niche body is slightly shining with streaming light, and welcomes the worship of visitors with dignified silence.

I originally thought I could find some clues from the shrine, but there was nothing on it. There were only some cherry blossom petals scattered on the ground around the shrine, which did not look like they were formed naturally. Instead, someone deliberately sprinkled cherry hydrangea here, which seemed to be a while.

There was nothing worth investigating in this shrine, so Lin Yan looked at another shrine.

Another shrine was built some distance from the wooden house. The visibility was very low on thunderstorms, so Lin Yan did not discover it immediately.

Unlike the first shrine, this shrine looks a little worn, with its wooden shell already bumpy and faded, revealing dangerous dark red marks in part.

There is nothing worth investigating in this shrine, but it looks very gloomy.

Suddenly, a hand suddenly put on Lin Yan's shoulder without any warning. He instantly reacted and summoned Zhu Qu's spear, then turned his head and stabbed behind him.

The next second, a scream rang out, and Lin Yan then saw that the other party was not a wild monster like Fuyezhong, but just a child wearing a hat.

Because he was too short, Lin Yan's shot did not hit him, but passed through his head. He could just put it on his shoulder just now, probably on tiptoe.

When Lin Yan saw him for the first time, he was confused, because didn’t the residents on the island take refuge in Kyujooya? Why did he leave a child who might not even be able to take care of himself here? Or... his parents have abandoned him?

But no matter what, Lin Yan finally met the first living person he saw on Baqing Island. Because the other party did not have the strange black aura, it is very likely that he could ask him what happened on Baqing Island.

Although Tianling Zheng has issued an evacuation notice to the residents of Baqing Island, this does not mean that these residents must be safe, because there are no time to react in some disasters.

After comforting the frightened little guy, Lin Yan also learned his name during the conversation - long time.

"Long time, can you tell me what happened on the island? Why are you the only one here? What about the other adults?"

After a series of questions, Lin Yan thought that children like Changji would definitely tell everything they knew without hesitation.
