The sound of waves came faintly from the exit.
The other exit of this cave should be not far from the sea.
Ye Ming wanted to see which area of Jueming Island was outside?
Stepping into the cave, the sight that greeted his eyes immediately made Ye Ming open his eyes wide.
"This, this is...
Beach of Desolation?”
Ye Ming remembers it very clearly, except for the inner bay beach where he could land safely.
Jueminghai also has a beach facing the sea.
However, this beach is located under cliffs and is covered with reefs and whirlpools.
Ships trying to land on the island from here are simply risking their lives!
In addition, under the sea water here is a place where all kinds of ferocious sharks and sea monsters gather.
Therefore, this beach was called "Death Beach" by later generations.
"It turns out that the other exit leads to the beach of death. No wonder the owner of the letter said that this is a place of death..."
On the desperate beach, there is a desert.
It is exposed to the sun all year round and is ravaged by sea storms, and almost no plants grow.
Not even a weed can be seen!
There were bare sand and stones everywhere, and the entire beach was filled with dead silence!
Not only that.
Ye Ming noticed the densely packed caves on the empty sand twenty meters away from the cave entrance.
He walked out of the cave exit, and his perception extended towards the caves.
"A nest of army ants!"
The dense caves are filled with tens of millions of army ants!
This is actually where the army ants’ nest is located!
No wonder there is no grass growing around and all living things are extinct.
There are army ants building a nest here. How can there be any living things around?
"The owner here is able to survive safely, probably thanks to the fire energy emitted by the fire sulfur ore, which prevents the army ants from approaching?"
Ye Ming guessed in his heart.
In the entire cave, the only thing that might be able to block the approaching army ants is the pyro-sulfur ore.
All things in the world are interdependent.
Who would have thought that near a colony of marching ants, there would be fire-sulfur ore that can naturally restrain them?
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the masterminds behind the scenes did not search this area, allowing the cave owner to survive here for a while.
Although he still had to die in the end, at least he left the resources and letters behind.
"Huh?
Those things are..."
There are a few light green crystals scattered near the army ant colony.
Originally, no one would care about these things.
But Ye Ming is different.
He was able to see the grade and color of the base material.
Those scattered light green crystals are clearly glowing with a little bit of blue light!
It’s high-quality material!
Entering Baoshan but returning empty-handed has never been Ye Ming's style... Those high-quality crystal materials must be taken away!
only……
If you just walk up and collect them like this, you will definitely alarm the marching ants in the nest.
When the time comes, overwhelming army ants will pour out...
No matter how good Ye Ming's physical condition is, he will probably die!
No, no!
Don't be impulsive!
You have to come up with a solid idea.
Ye Ming touched his chin and started thinking.
suddenly.
His eyes lit up.
"Yes!"
"I can wait for the ant tide to break out and then take the opportunity to collect materials!"
The army ant colony on the island of death will erupt in an ant tide every once in a while.
The army ants will crawl from this desperate beach along the cliffs to the inner bay beach area on the other side in search of food.
Ye Ming estimated that there should not be too many army ants left in the cave by then.
As long as he sees the opportunity, he can definitely collect all the high-quality materials scattered near the ant burrow?
“I just don’t know when the next ant wave will break out…
." After touching his chin and thinking for a while, Ye Ming opened the manufacturing tab of the survival interface.
In the Encyclopedia of Manufacturing Excellent Items, there is a record of an alarm.
[Excellent grade warning bell: metal sheet x20, rope x10, gauze x5, scrap iron x3]
[Explanation: Arrange one end of the warning bell in the area that needs to be warned, and connect the other end with a thin wire. If there is any trouble, you can immediately receive the bell warning. 】
This is it!
When Ye Ming browsed the manufacturing column before, he had a glimpse of it and had some impressions.
He could place one end of the warning bell next to the hole in the army ant's nest, and extend the other end with a thin line all the way to the inner bay beach.
As soon as the ant colony breaks out, the warning bell will definitely respond, and then he will be able to receive the bell warning immediately.
Ye Ming made an estimate.
With his speed, if he could go up the mountain immediately when the ant tide broke out and rush from the mountain stream to this desperate beach, it should be more than enough time!
At that time, you can take the opportunity to collect materials.
"Yes, just do it!"
[Get excellent warning bell X1]
At the moment, Ye Ming made the excellent warning bell and walked carefully towards the cave of the army ant nest.
He lowered one end of the warning bell as gently as possible and placed it next to the hole.
Done!
A smile appeared on Ye Ming's face.
next moment.
His expression suddenly changed.
Something strange happened in Cave Nest 3.1!
The rustling sounds are resounding intensively!
Those army ants have discovered him!
run!
Without hesitation, Ye Ming turned around and ran towards the cave.
After entering the cave, spread the fire and sulfur ore collected previously at the entrance of the cave.
I saw large swaths of army ants emerging from their cave nests and chasing after them.
But when they approached the cave, they all stopped, as if they had some scruples.
After wandering for a while.
The marching ant colony retreated like a tide and retracted into the cave nest.
"This fire sulfur ore can indeed restrain army ants!"
Ye Ming was overjoyed.
At the same time, he also understood why the fire and sulfur ores were scattered inside and outside the cave.
It should be used to stop marching ants.
Looking at the sky, it will probably get dark in a while.
It seems that there is no time to enter the veins and mine today.
"Deploy the warning bell first, and it won't be too late to start mining again tomorrow!"
"Shiyun, Yurou and the others are probably impatient, so please go back first."
Ye Ming held the thin wire in his hand, carefully straightened it, and fixed it with a screw at regular intervals. He followed the path he came from and walked towards the cave in the direction of the mountain stream.
Arrive at the cave entrance of the collapsed platform.
Ye Ming made two simple iron hooks and hooked them firmly into the stone wall of the cave.
Then, a rope was passed through it and tied to the tip of the Seven Seas Dragon Halberd.
"go!"
Using his right hand, Ye Ming threw the Seven Seas Dragon Halberd like a javelin.
Poof!
The Seven Seas Traveling Dragon Halberd penetrated deeply into the mountain wall next to the steps on the opposite side.
Ye Ming pulled the rope and shook it. Well, it was quite strong.
Immediately, he used an iron ring to fasten the rope and swung directly over.
After landing on the steps.
Ye Ming once again fixed two iron rings on the mountain wall here and tied the rope firmly to them.
In this way, a rope bridge is built.
If you come to mine tomorrow, you can just pass through the rope bridge without having to go through as much trouble as today.
Putting away the Seven Seas Traveling Dragon Halberd, Ye Ming walked along the steps towards the outside of the mountain stream.
The entrance to the mountain stream.
"Brother Ye, why haven't you come back yet?
It’s almost dark, can something happen to him?”
Jiang Shiyun walked back and forth anxiously, her face full of worry.
Yurou stood aside, feeling a little worried.
But she was obviously full of unparalleled confidence in Ye Ming, and comforted Jiang Shiyun: "Don't worry, sister Shiyun, my brother is very powerful!"
"He will definitely be back before dark!"
Jiang Shiyun's anxiety and worry were not much relieved by Yurou's comfort: "I don't know what's in the cave, how can I rest assured?"
"Brother Ye is too impulsive. This place looks like it was dug manually. Who knows if there might be any mechanisms or monsters inside?"
"just in case……"
Several terrifying scenes flashed through Jiang Shiyun's mind, making her face turn pale with fright.
"No, I have to go and see if Brother Ye is in danger, if he needs my help..."
With that said, Jiang Shiyun was about to rush in along the steps.
09 at this moment.
Yurou suddenly shouted with joy: "Brother is out!"
Jiang Shiyun looked up and saw a figure walking over from the steps in the distance, gradually revealing his figure.
Is it really Ye Ming?
"Brother Ye!"
Jiang Shiyun screamed in surprise, ran quickly down the steps, and threw herself into Ye Ming's arms, "Brother Ye, you are finally back!"
I, I thought..."
Ye Ming gently hugged Jiang Shiyun, feeling warm and a little funny in his heart.
He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Jiang Shiyun's long, silky hair: "Why?
Do you think something bad happened to me and I have to leave you two behind?"
Jiang Shiyun pursed her lips and smiled sheepishly: "I'm just worried..."
"It's almost dark, and you still haven't come back..."
