Chapter 445: Mine Investigation
However, Situ Yan's eyes were quick, and his entire right hand had already penetrated deep into the spring.
"Ahh
There was a sound of rattling from the other side of the spring, and Situ Yan endured the severe pain to grab the blue crystal, and when he pulled it out, his right hand and arm were already rotting.
Fortunately, when Situ Yan stretched out, he could activate his soul qi and use a layer of cold qi attached to his arm as protection.
Otherwise, it is estimated that Situ Yan's entire arm will be gone.
Situ Yan's aching forehead was covered with sweat, and the tips of his hair were also sweating profusely.
The moment the blue crystal was taken out, Situ Yan fainted.
Chu Jiang suddenly burst out with three breaths, and the three-pronged divine halberd suddenly became larger, and Chixiao was caught off guard and was knocked several meters away.
Chu Jiang ran to the unconscious Situ Yan and found that her right arm was already miserable.
Situ Yan, who was in a coma, closed her eyes tightly, and the corners of her mouth twitched, obviously she was suffering from severe pain even in a coma.
However, the blue crystal, after leaving the spring water, instantly lost its luster, but the cold air of the entire cave did not dissipate, but became more violent.
The spring water below was covered with a thick layer of ice, and the purple qi shield around Chixiao suddenly dissipated, and cracks had already appeared.
Blaze quickly exited the cave through the gate, closing the gate tightly.
The immortal shield on Chu Jiang's side obviously couldn't hold on, and the cold began to take advantage of the situation to invade.
Jiang Liyi reminded: "Chu Jiang, don't worry about Situ Yan first, she is only fainting temporarily, and now she must leave here as soon as possible!"
Chu Jiang endured the severe pain in his heart, put the blue crystal in the space bead, hugged Situ Yan around his waist, held it in his arms, and constantly turned the Immortal Xuangong to protect her.
"The gate must have been guarded by Chixiao, and everyone still returned from that small hole. ”
But that cave can only pass through two people at a time, Chu Jiang and his party have a total of nine people, and there is a fainting Situ Yan, who will delay too much time one by one.
Chu Jiang gave Su Yan a look, and Su Yan immediately stood under the entrance of the cave, endured the cold, and waved out a wave of earthy qi.
"Boom!"
The stone walls around the entrance of the cave were blasted open, but at the moment of explosion, because of the negative pressure, the cold air behind him suddenly hit like a tide.
Chu Jiang shouted: "Run!"
Then the crowd stepped forward and hid in the newly opened path.
The cold air behind him was approaching step by step, and he was about to devour Chu Jiang at the end of the team, but he couldn't help it, Chu Jiang pulled out the green light on his waist and blocked behind him.
Suddenly, the blue light spread, and when the cold touched the blue light, it also lost its cold power and turned into a cloud of mist.
In this way, Su Yan opened the way in front, and Chu Jiang picked up the green lantern in the back to resist.
Nine people dug all the way out.
At this time, the black rider also got the news and came to the mine.
"Order to block all mine entrances, gather all miners, and investigate them one by one!"
Chixiao asked, "Lord Black Rider, it seems useless to gather the miners, they have been exposed, and it is impossible to return to the miners' ranks." ”
"Don't go back, the entrance to the mine has been completely blocked, and they take a disabled person with them, and they don't choose to break in if they don't go back. Then they're going to have to hide from the task force everywhere!"
The Black Rider gathered a purple shield and entered the Dark Spring Cavern.
The bitter cold instantly invaded the shield, and the black rider had to withdraw immediately.
"Report to the Heavenly Domain immediately and find the crystal of the spring as soon as possible, otherwise the entire Nova mine will be shrouded in cold!"
On the other side, Su Yan is still excavating, and the green lantern has lost its effect.
But fortunately, Su Yan's excavation speed is fast enough, and the cold behind him has not yet caught up for the time being.
"Boss, we can't just dig out the mine, the Nova mine is so big, and we're in the ground now, even if we squeeze it dry, I can't dig it out. ”
Su Yan was crying bitterly in front, but Zhuge Ru urged: "Su Yan, now is not the time to joke, Situ Yan's arms have become like that, we must leave the mine as soon as possible." ”
"No!" Chu Jiang looked at Situ Yan who was in pain in his arms and said calmly, "Go back!"
Everyone looked at Chu Jiang in shock.
Over there, Su Yan continued to use his soul energy to open up the road, and Chu Jiang patiently explained: "Indeed, as Su Yan said, it is not realistic to dig out, and the black rider will definitely gather all the miners and let the hundred households investigate one by one, and Lao Chai has a grudge against us, once he finds out that we are not there, he will definitely betray us directly." ”
Jiang Liyi said: "Chu Jiang, you have to think clearly, not only must we first dispose of the traces of the battle, but also find a place to hide the crystals, the most important thing is Situ Yan's arm, how can we hide this?"
"Brothers, believe me, back in the miners' ranks, we will not only be able to stay safely, but we will also be able to heal Situ Yan's arm, and even take the entire Nova mine from the Black Rider!"
Looking at Chu Jiang's firm eyes, everyone still chose to believe.
Su Yan immediately changed the road and dug all the way back to the center of the mine.
Along the way, Chu Jiang and Xiao Chili ran the few remaining immortal Xuan Gong into Situ Yan's arm, temporarily delaying the erosion of cold qi.
Situ Yan woke up from Chu Jiang's arms, and saw that Chu Jiang was carefully bandaging her arms, and suddenly burst into tears.
"Brother, I'm making trouble for you again!"
"Little fool, where did you make trouble, you got the crystals that the black riders can't get, and we're getting closer and closer to the secret of the Dark Spring. Well, when I go back, I will wave my arms as normally as possible, and I will always use the Immortal Xuan Gong to suppress the cold. ”
"Boom!" Su Yan blasted a stone wall open, and in the mine, many miners were rushing to the center of the square.
Chu Jiang and his entourage took advantage of the situation to blend into the team.
Take care of your clothes as you run, and get rid of the ice cubes that are attached to your body.
Coming to the center of the mine, the black rider was high again, overlooking the crowd.
"Report, the count is complete, the number of people is 3,102, no more, no less!"
"What?"
The black rider was startled at first, but then a smile cracked into the corner of his mouth: "Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be quite smart, but being smart was mistaken by being smart, then it proves that the group of people who secretly stole the crystals are among you!"
"I thought you would work hard to serve the Celestial Domain, but some people have coveted the secrets of the Celestial Domain for a long time, and even stole the crystals, and there are nine suspects, among you!"
"Now I'll give you a few chances, first, stand up and surrender yourself, and hand over the crystals. Second, someone found someone suspicious and reported it to me. Third, 100 households and 1,000 households should be investigated one by one. If it really can't be found, all 3,102 people will be executed!"
These words frightened the 3,000 miners below, and everyone was terrified.
"Who, so bold, dare to go against Lord Black Rider!"
"That's right, Lord Black Rider is not thin with us, what is this picture?"
"Who is it, come out quickly, don't bother everyone!"
"Didn't you say that there are nine people, let's just push out nine of them. ”
When Chu Jiang heard this, he was very indignant in his heart: "Originally, I wanted to save you out, and even train you to become an army to resist the Heavenly Domain, but now it seems that you don't even have the qualifications to go out, so you will become slaves forever!"
Some people are just used to being slaves, they are used to being the backbone of human beings, they are used to being under the fence, they are used to being oppressed by others.
Chu Jiang stayed in the upper realm not for these people, but for those who were not afraid of ** and dared to challenge authority!
Seeing that no one took the initiative to stand up, the black rider performed the second step.
"Is there anything you want to come out to report?"
The cold voice of the Black Rider reverberated through the mine, a sound that was enough to break the will of ordinary people.
"I, I'll report it!"
Chu Jiang immediately looked at it, it was not Lao Chai, and breathed a sigh of relief.
That person ordered nine people from the crowd, not a few people from Chu Jiang, it seems that that person is for his life, and he randomly ordered a few people who usually have enemies.
Those people were pointed out for no reason, of course, they can't admit it.
Chixiao suddenly jumped down from the high platform, came to the nine people, carefully observed for a long time, and shook his head at the black horseman.
Chu Jiang was shocked in his heart: "Oh no, forget Chixiao's level, Chixiao has seen the nine of them, although there is a cold qi and purple qi shield blocking the view, but probably the body shape should be about the same, and he and I are fighting at close range, he must know me better." ”
Jiang Liyi also discovered this, and secretly poked Chu Jiang in the back: "What should I do? When the third step is to check one by one, Chixiao will definitely have to look at it all." ”
And the black rider above suddenly gave an order: "Haha, slaves are slaves, and they will do anything to survive!
The crowd was in an uproar, and the person identified was even weaker in his legs and fainted in fright.
The nine people who were framed were also at a loss for a while, and kept begging the black rider for mercy.
The Skyware Task Force received the order and dragged the wailing ten people to an open place, and slashed them down, and the heads of the ten people fell to the ground.
"I repeat, it's a report, not a frame-up!"
Now the crowd was much quieter, and after a long time, no one dared to stand up and report.
When Chu Jiang was doing things, the rest of the miners were sleeping, except for Chixiao, there were no other witnesses.
After another moment, the black knight began the third step, instructing the brothers and thousands of households to gather their own people to investigate, while Chixiao checked each team in order.
Lao Chai gathered Chu Jiang and the others, together with the other miners under his jurisdiction, and carried sticks to check everyone one by one.
He focused on people with arm injuries, but when working in the mines, they often collapsed, so many people's arms were injured.
Jiang Liyi leaned over again: "Chu Jiang, what should I do? Lao Chai can still handle this level, what should I do when Chixiao comes?"
Chu Jiang chuckled: "It's okay, don't worry, Chixiao didn't see you clearly, he can identify me at most." ”
Jiang Liyi said anxiously: "I can't identify you!"
"Don't worry, you will cooperate with me when the time comes. ”
Chu Jiang whispered a few words in front of Jiang Liyi, and Jiang Liyi's face soothed.
"I haven't used this trick for a long time, and I don't dare to make sure it's foolproof!"
"Liyi, believe in yourself! The name of the Nomad Saintess is not in vain!"
