Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 46 is wrong, there is a problem [Please read on! ]

When I heard Shi Qing resign and leave, he was still so polite in his words.

Xia Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly became more curious.

You know, they are now picking crystal fruits on the territory of Dashi Camp.

Trespassing into the sphere of influence of other camps is no small matter in Redwood Ridge.

Shi Dong at least pointed it out to them just now.

As for Shi Qing, he did not say a word from beginning to end about their trespassing into Dashi's territory and picking crystal fruits, as if he had turned a blind eye to it.

Xia Hong's heart moved slightly, and he did not directly agree to let Shi Qing leave. Instead, he cast his eyes on the bag that Shi Dong was carrying next to him. The bag was bulging, and it was obvious that it was filled with crystal fruits.

"Shitou Leader, why are there only two of you out tonight?"

Shi Qing's face froze for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and said, "It's just picking some crystal fruits. We don't need so many people. How is it, Chief Xia, do you know anyone from our camp's logging team?"

When Xia Hong was speaking, he kept staring at Shi Qing. Although the other party concealed it well, he still saw the slight stiffness in his expression.

But Xia Hong didn't say anything, just nodded with a smile.

"In that case, then Shitouling should go back first. We'll see you another day."

"Okay, I'll take my leave first. Chief Xia, we'll see you another day."

It can be seen that Shi Qing was really anxious. When he saw Xia Hong release the people, he immediately ran away with Shi Dong without looking back.

Xia Hong stared at the two people's departing backs, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Captain, are you just going to let them go like this without teaching them a lesson?"

Yuan Cheng has always been dissatisfied with the Dashi Camp. When he saw Xia Hong stopping the two men, he thought he could teach them a lesson tonight, but who knew he just let them go like that.

Xia Hong shook his head and said, "It's not necessary. During this period, we picked so many crystal fruits in Dashi as revenge for what happened before. Besides, something must have happened in Dashi camp."

Yuan Cheng was stunned and looked puzzled.

Yue Feng, who was standing next to him, came over and nodded, saying, "Something must have happened. There are more than a dozen woodcutters in Dashi. It is not necessary for the leader to go out in person to pick some crystal fruits. Besides, we have basically cleared out all the crystal fruits here during this period of time. The bag of crystal fruits they carried on their backs should not have been picked from their own territory."

Xia Hong smiled approvingly at Yue Feng. Among the loggers in the camp, Yue Feng was the oldest and his observation and consideration of problems were obviously more meticulous than the others.

Shi Qing must have lied, but Xia Hong couldn't be sure what exactly happened in the Dashi camp. He wanted to ask just now, but he held back the words.

It is taboo to inquire about each other's situation between camps.

Just like before, after Xia Ding and the logging team were wiped out, Xia Hong was also very worried about running into people from other camps. Later, when he ran into Wang Ming's group, he had to bluff and pretend that Xia Ding and others were still there.

If he asked rashly, Shi Qing would not only not tell him, but would become even more wary of him.

"Alright, forget about them. These are enough for tonight. Go back first. Xu An, Liu Yuan, Li Yuankun, each of you three will chop down one tree tonight, and the rest of you must chop down two trees."

I can't think of it, so I just stop thinking about it.

Xia Hong turned around and looked at the people, then smiled and announced the remaining tasks for tonight.

Ever since we harvested the golden-eyed demon sheep last time, coupled with the proceeds from subsequent hunting, the camp suddenly had an abundance of cold beast meat.

After the thrilling scene of the strange monster attacking Xia Hong, the enthusiasm of the young people in the camp for cultivation became even higher. With an abundant supply of cold beast meat, the camp had three more young new lumberjacks.

As expected, these three, like the previous eight, are descendants of the original logging team members.

It is worth mentioning that Xu An is Xu Ning's younger brother.

Xu Ning lost his right eye in the incident with the Golden Eyed Demonic Sheep a month ago. Although it did not affect his cultivation and his injury had almost recovered, Xia Hong tried to reduce his outings as much as possible for safety reasons and let him stay in the camp. Probably stimulated by his brother's blindness, Xu An practiced very hard for a period of time afterwards, so he was the first to break through among the three.

In just one month, three new logging-level fighters were added, which was a great boost to the camp that had just suffered losses.

Xu Ning often joked that if he had known that a right eye could be exchanged for three lumberjacks, he would have given his left eye to the cold beast.

Don't take jokes seriously, but it is also true that if you lose something in one place, you may gain something in another.

There are currently ten members of the camp's Lumberjack Realm. If we count Xia Hong, the leader of the Digging Realm, we can say that the strength of the Great Xia Camp is now far greater than when Xia Ding was the leader.

The iron smelting furnace keeps warm and protects against monsters. The small torches work with everyone's increasing strength, and the camp's hunting ability becomes stronger and stronger. More importantly, the fire-condensing oil allows everyone to fight against monsters even when they are out.

It can be said that the current Daxia camp has been improved by more than one level in all aspects compared to the original one, and all of this is only brought about by the first building in the system.

Xia Hong was extremely envious of the remaining eight buildings.

It's a pity that a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.

The remaining buildings, even the lowest-level ones, require iron resources to be built, not to mention those that require gold and silver resources.

So during this period, Xia Hong handed over the normal logging and fruit picking tasks to others. In addition to presiding over hunting, he spent the rest of his time searching in Redwood Ridge and around the camp, hoping to find coal and iron mines as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, he searched alone for more than half a month and still found nothing.

He wanted to ask Xia Chuan and others to look for it, but the others were not at the Digging Realm, and could not even break the soil on the ground, let alone the rocks on the mountain.

Therefore, not only does he have to rely on him to find the mines, but even if a mine is found later, if no one has broken through the digging realm, then he will be the only one to do the mining.

"We have enough wood and crystal fruit. What we lack now is the meat of the cold beast. We can't rush to find coal and iron. When more people break through the digging realm, we can expand the search area and find it sooner or later."

Xia Hong thought to himself, and seeing that the others had almost finished packing, he quickly followed.

When he got closer to the crowd, Xia Hong realized that Xia Chuan seemed to be thinking about something with his head down, and his expression was absent-minded.

Like Yuan Cheng, Xia Chuan had experienced the Dashi camp crossing the boundary before. Thinking of when Shi Qing and the other were here just now, Xia Chuan had been silent.

Xia Hong thought he was thinking about this, so he stepped forward and patted his shoulder, asking, "Are you dissatisfied with me for letting Shi Qing and the other two go?"

However, Xia Chuan shook his head, and then said with some hesitation:

"I was wondering how Shi Dong recognized you at first sight. The only people we met before were Wang Ming and the other four. Even if we told each other verbally, it's impossible for him to recognize you at first sight. And there are ten of us in total, and Shi Dong recognized you at first sight. It feels a bit strange!"

Hearing this, Xia Hong was startled, as if a string in his mind was plucked.

Yup!

The first time he broke out of the logging area and went out, he was hiding in the dark, so he was able to recognize Shi Qing and Shi Dong; the second time he went out with Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng, they only encountered Wang Ming and his four companions who stole the crystal fruit.

Neither Shi Qing nor Shi Dong had ever seen him before.

In an instant, many things emerged in Xia Hong's mind...

The bodies of Wang Ming and the other four that we had seen before in Daxia territory;

The knife that Shi Qing didn't have time to put away;

The two had not been seen on this side of the Big Rock Camp territory during this time;
The crystal fruits that Shi Qing and his companions carried back from the north were not seen by the rest of the logging community in Dashi Camp;
Even the many changes in Shi Qing's expression just now...

After integrating the clues in his mind, Xia Hong suddenly raised his head and his expression changed drastically:
"Something's wrong, hurry up and follow him, there's something wrong with Shi Dong!"
