Chapter 815: Chapter 302: The Shocking Trio (Part 4)
Zhao Kai heard this, lifted his eyelids, glanced at Li Qinghua, and said, "I approve this reason."
"Can you return before nine o’clock?"
Li Qinghua nodded, "I can."
"Go ahead."
Zhao Kai waved his hand and directly handed over a temporary pass.
During the service period, if these people wanted to leave the service area, they all needed to have a pass; otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to move an inch outside.
Li Qinghua took the pass and asked, "Don’t you need to send someone to watch us?"
Zhao Kai grinned, "A twisted melon is not sweet. If you really want to leave, would it be useful for me to send someone to watch you?"
"Besides, I know you won’t leave."
Li Qinghua raised his eyebrows, "Why are you so sure?"
Zhao Kai chuckled, "Once you’ve seen the shelter we built with our own hands, you’ll know that nowhere in this world can be better than our shelter now!"
Li Qinghua and the others exchanged glances, did not argue, and simply turned around to say goodbye.
The three of them walked all the way to the boardwalk and followed it towards the floating bridge.
Along the way, they saw patrol teams patrolling, and some people had already started cultivating the wasteland in the mountains.
Seeing the three of them, some patrol members came up to ask for their identities.
Li Qinghua took out the pass, and only then did the patrol members let them pass.
They made their way to the stronghold at the floating bridge, which also had patrol teams guarding it.
After checking their pass, they were allowed to enter the floating bridge.
At this moment, the sky had not completely cleared, and the Firebird ship was parked beside the floating bridge.
The lights were on aboard the Firebird, with patrol personnel on duty.
Everything here seemed heavily guarded and well-organized.
Unlike the Firebird they once knew.
Li Qinghua still remembered, back in the day, Brother Huo’s men would gather to gamble, toy with women, and indulge in drinking whenever they had the chance on the Firebird.
Those people had no notion of order, living in a haze, just getting by, enjoying the moment.
Afraid that they might die any day, they indulged crazily every day.
But the patrol team at the Yangshan Shelter in front of them was entirely different.
They stayed at their posts, not indulging, only working meticulously.
This made Li Qinghua feel the enormous difference between the two.
Zhou Qingming and Lin Wan were similarly moved, Lin Wan whispered, "The spirits of the people here are indeed different from those elsewhere."
Zhou Qingming pressed his lips together and said sullenly, "They’re living seriously."
The three continued walking, stepped onto the floating bridge, and felt the strong buoyancy, couldn’t help but carefully experience the solidness of the bridge.
Li Qinghua said, "Perhaps this floating bridge lacks hardness, but there’s no problem with its buoyancy."
"To think of using duckweed to build a floating bridge, I wonder which genius thought of it," Lin Wan also marveled.
Zhou Qingming stomped his foot, the duckweed below only wobbled slightly, without any other change.
He couldn’t help but say, "This buoyancy is really strong. It feels like you could drive a car on it."
After crossing the floating bridge, they soon arrived at Yangshan.
The stronghold on this side of Yangshan also had personnel on duty, strictly verifying their identities and carefully checking their pass before letting them pass.
Finally entering Yangshan, the forests here had been cut down, and the ground had been repaired.
Slate steps were laid on the ground, forming a path.
Following the stone road all the way up, after walking two miles, they saw a bright area with clanking sounds coming from ahead.
There were also people shouting, selling breakfast.
The three were all surprised, Zhou Qingming couldn’t help but say, "Is this the Yangshan Shelter? It’s so lively?"
"My, it’s not even dawn, and these people are already up? What are they doing?" Lin Wan also asked in wonder.
Li Qinghua frowned, saying, "Let’s go have a look."
He felt this place shouldn’t be the Yangshan Shelter.
At the very least, it was completely different from the Yangshan Shelter he imagined.
"Hold on, what are you here for?"
Just as they were about to approach the brightly lit area, they were stopped by a team of patrol members.
Li Qinghua immediately, familiarly took out the pass, said, "We’re from Meishan, heading to the Yangshan Shelter."
The patrol member took the pass, carefully verified it, nodded slightly, and said, "This is the mining area, not the shelter. You still have to continue forward to reach the shelter."
"If you want to mine, you can go in."
Li Qinghua and the others were once again stunned. Zhou Qingming hurriedly asked, "Mining area? What mining area?"
The patrol member was not impatient; instead, he patiently explained, "This is the Superpower Stone mining area. Mining here, after finding Superpower Stones, you can go to the shelter to exchange for points. You know about points, right?"
"I know..." Zhou Qingming nodded blankly.
Li Qinghua took a sharp breath and asked, "Superpower Stone Mine? There’s a mine full of Superpower Stones in this area?"
He had seen Tu Long use the Blast Talisman Stone with his own eyes.
Such precious Superpower Stones, and there’s an entire mining area of them at Yangshan?
He couldn’t help but be shocked.
The patrol member smiled, "Of course, you’ve heard the commotion inside. Many people are mining the Superpower Stones, and many don’t even return at night, staying here day and night to mine and earn points."
Lin Wan couldn’t help but say, "Is it worth being so desperate?"
The patrol member replied, "They are all young and strong but haven’t awakened any mutant ability. Other than mining, there’s no quicker way to earn points."
"Now, more and more people are mining. These ores aren’t inexhaustible; eventually, they’ll be all dug up, so everyone rushes to mine."
