Chapter 19 The Astral World Comes
But I saw that there were quite a few Roba people on this train, and there were always forty or fifty of them.
After asking, I found out that these were engineers from the Zhulinling Coal Mine that Alfred invested in Daqi, and they seemed to be recruiting new recruits.
The so-called Zhulinling Coal Mine is a super-large coal mine, not to mention its huge scale, but what is even more rare is that this coal mine produces the best quality anthracite, which is the best fuel for warships and various large steam equipment.
It can be said to be a strategic resource. After the Second God-Punishment War, it was occupied by Alfred as a defeated treaty.
At this moment, we could see these guys a little nervous and even started fiddling with guns.
If someone was deliberately damaging the railway this time, it is very likely that it would be targeted at them!
Therefore, they did not dare to stay here for a long time, and planned to cross mountains and ridges and leave on their own initiative.
At this moment, Wang Zirui also said anxiously: "Shengzhi, what should we do now?"
Although Yin Shengzhi's current cultivation level is only at the intermediate level of the astral body, his combat power is enough to be as hard as the advanced mage.
At this moment, facing this situation, Yin Shengzhi was naturally not anxious or impatient, and said lightly: "Don't worry, second uncle, there is nothing big. Let's leave here and keep up with those Alfred engineers!"
"Uh? What to do with them?"
"There are many people and great power, let's go together!" Yin Shengzhi said insincerely.
"Yin, do you think they may be in danger?" Dick asked.
Yin Shengzhi was not easy to hide this shrewd guy: "It is very likely... but dozens of engineers died in one go, and he would find an excuse for blackmail for Alfred..."
Yin Shengzhi sighed and said with a faint sigh, as if there was a ghost fire burning in his eyes.
There are countless examples of this. Once the citizens of the great powers in Qi were hurt, they immediately put pressure on the local government or the court to compensate for thousands of times the losses.
The most famous one is of course the third battle of divine punishment. Due to the Tianyuan Sect's riot, thousands of Luoba people in Qi were killed, and the consequence of the war was that the Great Qi was humiliated and lost 200 million gold yuan.
This amount was not considered compensation in the past few years...
Now that these dozens of Roba engineers die, with Alfred's urinary nature, the Southeast Governor's Mansion will definitely be waxed!
In terms of public and private affairs, Yin Shengzhi certainly couldn't watch this happen, not that he had any good feelings for these guys...
In a different situation, Yin Shengzhi can do it directly to peel off these guys and refine their souls!
It was already afternoon and it was getting late.
Yin Shengzhi and the other two followed them for a few miles. The Alfred people immediately became alert and shouted, "Who are you? Why follow us?"
Yin Shengzhi didn't want to show up for the time being, so Dick came forward and said, "Hey, guys, don't be nervous. We are also passengers on the train. Seeing that you have many people, I want to follow you..."
The Alfreds immediately breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Dick. Some even recognized him as a woman disguised as a man and even whistled.
"Ha, I didn't expect to meet a beautiful woman here. Madam, which country do you belong to?"
"I am a reporter for the Azure Castle Daily in Allica," Dick said.
"The new world is still a reporter!" These people even started to cheer.
But in the end they decided that only Dick could follow them, while Yin Shengzhi and Wang Zirui were not good at Qi.
Of course, Dick couldn't follow these guys, so unfortunately, the Alfreds shrugged and had to walk!
In this wilderness, where there are potentially dangerous places, it is important to be careful.
They didn't know if Yin Shengzhi and Wang Zirui were sent by some bandits...
So Yin Shengzhi and others had to follow them from a distance, two or three miles apart.
At such a long distance, the Alfreds certainly had no nerve to drive them away.
However, it is obvious that they are quite familiar with the terrain of this mountainous area. They can always find mountain roads along the way and head towards a village.
Obviously, these guys have explored the surroundings, so they are so familiar with each other.
"This is not their mining area. Exploring here is really bad intentions!"
When Yin Shengyi's travelers came to the village, it was already dusk.
Before he got closer, Yin Shengzhi had already narrowed his eyes and said, "No, something must have happened in the village..."
This is a typical Daqi village with a very well-organized layout. It is located in the canyon and is covered by dense woods. It looks like a courtyard house, forming a small space.
This is the characteristic of Qi State. From childhood to the courtyards where people live, to cities, prefectures, counties, and to the entire country, there are such closed spaces that are connected one by one.
There must be winding rivers in it, and there should be fertile fields to form a small self-sufficiency system.
But now at dusk, it should be the time to cook supper.
However, under the dusk sky light, there is no trace of smoke from cooking.
"What's wrong..."
In Yin Shengzhi's eyes, not only did there be no smoke from cooking stoves above the village, but there seemed to be a trace of death, which made him frown.
They stepped up and rushed to the village, and soon met the group of Alfreds, who were obviously surprised.
There is not even a single person in this village!
All kinds of things in the village are fine, many doors are open, and everything remains the same.
However, the people in the village seemed to have disappeared mysteriously, as if they had never existed.
A very strange atmosphere rose from their hearts, making them want to leave the village.
But now the sky is getting darker, and there are wolves howlings coming from afar.
At least there is a house here, which can block the cold air in the mountains at night, and the house can block wild animals.
And if they leave this village, they really don’t know what will happen at night...
For a moment, they could not make up their minds to leave, so they could only be careful and prepare to stay away from sleep, gather together and spend the night.
The arrival of Yin Shengzhi and the other two was not unexpected to them.
They just asked Yin Shengzhi and the others to the other end of the village from afar and not to get close to them...
"Yin, everyone in the village has disappeared mysteriously. What's going on? Is it the astral world that is coming?"
In another world, the entire village occasionally disappears, and even the entire army will completely disappear when it encounters thick fog.
