First location can be found in the underdark. Check the deep gnome corpses near the duegar beach. One of the deep gnomes have a hand crossbow for you to loot. So, go near the myconid post, check x:102, y:237 coordinates, and do let me know if you find the hand crossbow.
Second one is near the petrified drows and the spectator. Since it is inside a bag, and surrounded by fog, you might have a hard time finding it. Due to hardship of finding a hand crossbow, I recommend you to check the mods below.
