Don't Starve, my pickaxe can be upgraded

Chapter 27 Seal
Since Pang Xuan's scavenging team has hot weapons——

As he was not sure whether Pang Xuan was the only one with a gun, Liu Hen did not dare to get too close.

But now, in the middle of the night, he can see twenty meters away, and his hearing is much better than before, so he is not worried about losing it.

……

"Captain, we haven't seen anyone catching up with us yet. Can we slow down a bit? The elderly and children are a bit overwhelmed."

A man caught up and said to Pang Xuan with a grim expression.

"Even if I can't bear it, I have to bear it. I can't bear this low temperature. If I really go out, I will die."

Pang Xuan said in a cold voice, "Give the order. If anyone falls behind, leave them to fend for themselves. No one will intervene."

"A bunch of trash!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became: "If it weren't for supporting this bunch of losers, how could I have ended up like this?"

He suffered a series of setbacks, with seven people dying. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and his chest felt like it was about to explode.

As a result, this group of subordinates still make him worry less.

When he thought about the various difficulties he would face after leaving the Hongluo camp, he wanted to kill a few people to reduce his burden.

When the people behind heard the captain's words, they all fell silent and could only grit their teeth and continue on their way.

'Damn it! Why are you so obedient at this time?'

Seeing that no one talked back, Pang Xuan became even angrier and wanted to kill someone to vent his anger, but he couldn't.

Finally, they arrived at the entrance of the abandoned mine.

The entrance to this mine is a huge groove. It takes more than ten meters to enter the mine. There are also many scattered iron ores at the entrance.

Because the purchase price offered by the Hongluo Camp was too low and there was no means to transport the iron ore, the iron ore was hardly consumed.

"Leave four of you guarding the cave entrance, and the rest of you follow me in."

Pang Xuan spoke in a cold voice.

……

Liu Hen waited patiently for more than ten minutes. Seeing that there was no sound at the entrance, he slowly walked to twenty meters away from the entrance of the mine.

From this position, he could already vaguely see the outlines of four figures.

The four men were loyal to their duties and had no intention of slacking off, but they did not patrol outside. They just guarded the entrance of the cave to prevent demons and other monsters in the dark from approaching.

"This groove..."

Liu Hen looked at the huge trench dug by the miners and calculated its width in his mind: "It's about eight meters wide, so it shouldn't be a problem. Besides, if there's a sudden sound in the darkness, the first reaction of the deserted people will probably be to hide and wait and see what happens. It's unlikely that they will rush out directly."

So, I have plenty of time to arrange it.

Thinking of this, he immediately gestured to Xiao Heishi, asking him to keep watch while he slowly approached the entrance of the mine.

Soon, he came to a position about four or five meters away from the four people, out of their sight, and directly started the free construction mode.

As he expected, large slag can also be used as building materials.

So he started placing the large slag directly.

"Snapped!"

The first large piece of slag was placed successfully, and most of the area was sunken into the rocks on the ground, completely integrated with the ground.

Because of the sound, he quickly looked at the four people at the entrance of the mine.

Sure enough, the four men suddenly squatted down, raised the wooden bows in their hands and aimed at the direction of the sound, but did not go forward to check immediately.

Because they had never heard such a sound before, the four of them were a little nervous. It was the fear of the unknown that made them hesitate whether to hide back deep in the mine.

They never thought that someone would be "blocking" them, because the gap at the mine entrance was so large that it would be a huge project to build a thick enough wall under normal circumstances. It would not be completed in a short time.

Although he had already anticipated this scene, Liu Hen did not dare to waste time and continued to place large slag stones.

"Clap! Clap! Clap..."

He placed the large pieces of rubble one after another, with every two pieces fitting perfectly and fused together tightly.

A meter-thick stone wall quickly appeared in front of him.

Little Heishi at the back was stunned again. How could his master's ability become so strong all of a sudden?
Half a minute later, a two-meter-high stone wall appeared at the exit of the mine, with both ends completely integrated into the stone walls on both sides.

Liu Hen climbed up the stone wall and continued to place large rubble on it, piling it up and raising the stone wall higher.

Inside the entrance of the abandoned mine, the four people became nervous when they saw that the strange sound had not disappeared.

One of them quickly gestured, alerting the other three, and quickly left, ready to inform the captain of the abnormality.

The strange sound continued to ring out in the darkness, sometimes from the left and sometimes from the right.

The remaining three people became more and more nervous and their spirits were extremely tense, but a monster rushed in.

……

A minute later, the one-meter-thick stone wall had increased to four meters.

Liu Hen did not stop there and continued to build upwards.

Another minute later, the stone wall increased to eight meters.

Finally, at this point, he began to build horizontally, placing large rubble stones on the sides and letting them blend in, just like building a floor.

Because the materials that are successfully placed in free construction are tightly connected together, as if they grew together.

So in theory, as long as it doesn't collapse under its own weight, there's no need to worry about it falling from a suspended area.

That’s right, Liu Hen planned to completely seal the entrance to this abandoned mine. According to the original owner’s memory, although this mine was very deep, it did not have a second exit.

Since they are enemies, we must beat them to death.

As long as this exit is blocked, Pang Xuan’s scavenging team will be finished and will be trapped to death inside.

Of course, the barbarians are very tenacious and may be able to dig a passage, but it is also good to cause these people a little trouble.

"Anyway, I can easily gather materials now, so building a seal like this is easy."

Finally, just when he vaguely heard the sound of dense footsteps coming from inside the mine, the entire mine was completely sealed.

Whether it was directly in front or above his head, they were all blocked by him. The 'ceilings' on both sides were completely integrated into the mountain walls on both sides, and there was no possibility of any gaps at all.

The stone wall was one meter thick, and even if they wanted to dig it, it would take them a long time without the right tools.

At the same time, Pang Xuan finally brought his men back to the cave entrance.

Because at this time the strange "pa pa" sound just disappeared, he was so angry that he slapped the person who reported the news, then took out his pistol and went forward to check.

As a result, after walking only about ten meters, a stone wall suddenly blocked the way.

"???"

He was stunned, wondering if he had taken the wrong road.

"I feel like one meter isn't safe enough, because the quality of this kind of slag is very average."

Outside the stone wall, Liu Hen used local materials and wielded the pickaxe to collect them frantically.

[Big Essence Stone +1]

Sure enough, the ordinary stones here are all fine stones.

He was inspired and continued to wield the pickaxe, collecting materials on the spot.

"Who's out there?!"

Pang Xuan's roar was heard from inside the stone wall. The guy should have realized that someone was targeting them. This kind of stone wall could not appear out of thin air.

"Sir, the superpower outside, it was our fault before, please let us go..."

Pang Xuan yelled, and his initial roar turned into a plea.

However, Liu Hen remained indifferent.

Since we have become enemies, we might as well die in there completely.

In order to prevent the people inside from digging, Liu Hen once again increased his speed, and the pickaxe he swung was almost whistling.

When he had enough materials, he used the fine stones to continue building and thickening the stone walls.

Finally, when he had increased the thickness of the stone wall to two meters, he felt relieved and left with the little black stone.

More than half an hour later, they arrived at a mine more than 3,000 meters away from Pang Xuan and others.

There is also a small abandoned mine here. The pyrite in it has long been mined out, but there is still a lot of ordinary iron ore.

"First, collect enough iron ore here and upgrade the workbench to the maximum level of black iron."

Liu Hen made such a plan in his mind, and then took Xiao Heishi into the mine.
