Stealing Pens: Travelers from the End of the World

Tan Yuchen smiled and said, "Take off the black cloth and throw it away."

Wuxie responded and used a knife to cut the black cloth on the handle of the knife and remove it, revealing the original handle.

There is nothing special about the handle, only a few small round spheres that look like obsidian are inlaid around the head and tail of the gray handle.

Wuxie felt that the obsidian was very beautiful and couldn't help but ask, "Yu Chen, why did you wrap the handle of the knife with black cloth?"

"Ugly." Tan Yuchen said one word simply.

Wuxie: "..." Wuxie didn't see what was ugly about the handle of the knife, but everyone's aesthetics were different, so he didn't worry about it.

After Wuxie cleaned himself up, Qin Yuchen took some food from his backpack and handed it to him.

"What's on the other side of that secret door?" Qin Yuchen asked.

Lao Itch was stunned for a moment and glanced at Qin Yuchen in confusion, thinking that this person was clearly not here just now and had never looked there, so how did he know there was a secret door?

When Zhang Qiling saw no answer, he frowned and went to the secret door. He raised his right hand and touched it casually, then pulled the iron ring and pulled it hard.

The door opened with a click. Zhang Qiling went in with a flashlight and came out within a few minutes: "Safe."

Qin Yuchen didn't care what Lao Itch's face was like, he put his arms around Wu Xie's shoulders and headed for the secret door. The silly kid's face turned pale from the cold and he was still just eating. He didn't know what he was thinking.

They entered the secret door. This was a mine that was supported by wood on all sides. The mine was very wide and had several mine passages. There were many ores and waste rocks piled up in the corners of the mine passages.

Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling found a lot of discarded wood in every corner. Their clothes were still wet, and the river water was bone-chilling, so they urgently needed warmth.

The simple fire began to emit heat. Wu Xie and Lao Chu took off the few remaining pieces of cloth and used wooden bars to support them and roast them next to the fire.

When Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling came back from wandering around, they found that they had stripped down to only two pairs of pants.

Qin Yuchen: "..."

Zhang Qiling: "..."

Wuxie gnawed on the compressed biscuits and waved to the two people standing there and said, "Brother Yuchen, you two should come and dry your clothes quickly so you don't catch a cold."

Zhang Qiling blinked and turned his attention to Tan Yuchen.

"Huh?" Tan Yuchen was confused by his gaze, "Are you shy?"

"..." Zhang Qiling walked silently to the fire, unzipped his coat without hesitation, took off his coat to dry on the rack prepared by Wu Xie, and then looked back at Tan Yuchen.

Zhang Qiling looks thin, but after taking off his clothes, there is no trace of fat. Zhang Qiling's muscles are evenly distributed and the lines are smooth, which is really pleasing to the eye.

Tan Yuchen admired it for a while, nodded and smiled: "Well, you are indeed a little brother."

Zhang Qiling raised his eyebrows and just looked at Tan Yuchen without saying anything.

Qin Yuchen slowly took off his jacket and short-sleeved shirt. He and Zhang Qiling were similar in stature. They were both the type who looked thin when they were dressed and showed off their body when they were undressed, so he had nothing to be embarrassed about.

It's just that they hurt Wu Xie beside them. Wu Xie looked at their abdominal muscles and then looked down at his own.

Wu Xie: "..."

Well, comparing people to each other will always make people angry, so just keep eating your own cookies.

Tan Yuchen and Zhang Qiling sat down and immediately asked, "How about you tell me what's going on with you two?"

Wu Xie's expression changed, and he snorted coldly, not wanting to pay attention to Lao Itch.

"What does it have to do with you?" Lao Chi glared at Tan Yuchen.

Tan Yuchen smiled good-naturedly: "Indeed, but it shouldn't be their business if I kill you here."

"..." Lao Itch glanced at the other two people suspiciously. Zhang Qiling showed no expression except for some naive hesitation.

"Don't look at him, I can kill Wuxie with just a raise of my hand." Tan Yuchen said, "There must be a reason why you worked so hard to trick this little comrade into coming here?"

Wuxie coughed when he heard this, and felt that what Tan Yuchen said made sense.

After all, he and Lao Chu combined couldn't beat Qin Yuchen.

Lao Itch was speechless. In the end, he never resisted Qin Yuchen's pressure and explained why he was so familiar with this place:

"The reason why I made such a long detour is because this matter is a bit weird, and I am afraid that everyone will not believe me if I tell you..."

"Fuck, I've even seen the damn rice dumplings. Why can't I believe it?" Wu Xie rolled his eyes and rolled his eyes to the sky.

"No... Zongzi and other things are normal for this industry, but..." Lao Itch hesitated for a long time before spitting out a few words, "I am a yin person..."

"Yin people?" Wuxie really doesn't believe it this time, because such things as Yin people work for the King of Hell. If you believe that there are Yin people, doesn't it mean that there is also the King of Hell? !

"Are you going to show up like a bull-headed horse again soon?!" Wuxie asked loudly, "Why, you are so well-informed that you have even seen that sinister person?"

"I've seen it!" Lao Chu suddenly became irritable.

Zhang Qiling was in a daze, but when he heard the two men's violent voices, he suddenly came back to his senses and asked Tan Yuchen what happened with his eyes.

Tan Yuchen was also a little confused. He didn't understand why he was getting anxious when he could have a good conversation.

He put his index finger to his lips and made a shushing gesture, then shook his head, meaning that he didn't understand.

Lao Itch is also explaining the lie he made up at this moment, with a high volume, as if he wants to increase his momentum in this way:

"I was following a damn road with more than [-] people, and who knew that there would be rocks rolling down that road! At that time, more than [-] of us were hit by stones, and some of them were hit with bloody wounds. If it weren't for I was lucky enough to sink where I fell, and I probably died there too!”
