Qu Nian didn't expect such a big advantage in front of her, and she didn't take advantage of it, which surprised her.

Since their voices were not small, the old ghost on the side heard it, and then he walked over quickly and said, "You can't give her the smelting crystals you dug up! ”

Qu Nian was stunned: "Why? This is my own volition, and I didn't come to rob it." ”

The old ghost said: "You don't understand, performance is evaluated here at night, in order to ensure fairness and justice, it is not allowed to give and receive privately." ”

Qu Nian exclaimed: "There is still performance?

The old ghost said: "Yes!"

Qu Nian: "......"

The old ghost said again, "Right away, you'll know." In order to motivate the piglets here, the 'Shining Star' and 'Shining Cave Master' are selected every night, that is, the person with the highest amount of crystals, and the cave with the highest amount of crystals!"

Qu Nian said: "What is the prize?"

The old ghost said: "The shining star and the shining cave master can go to the tenderness room, where there are delicacies from the mountains and seas, and the beauties are like clouds, you can live happily in it for one night, get the piglets of the shining star, and you can rest for another day the next day, so the tenderness room is a place that all piglets dream of, and it feels like going once, it is worth it for a lifetime." ”

Qu Nian thought about it, and when they entered the cave, it seemed that they did hear the cave master and the goatee mention the tender room and the shining cave master, and it turned out that this was the case!

The old ghost said: "Piglets, didn't I tell you in the morning? Those who are less than one or two will be whipped! As for the cave master, they must come up to the stage and kowtow to apologize." ”

Qu Nian nodded and said, "I see." Then did our cave master kowtow on the stage?"

The old ghost approached him and whispered, "Kowtow King!"

Qu Nian: "......"

But at this moment, there was a sound of gongs beating outside the cave, and it was time to call it a day.

The people in the cave already had a conditioned reflex, and when they heard the sound, they stopped their movements and walked towards the entrance of the cave one after another, forming two lines.

Because the four of them did not complete the task, they did not have the confidence to run to the front, and they honestly ranked last, and the girl seemed to have no confidence, and she was still behind them.

The old ghost also lined up with them, looked at the fruits in their bowls, sighed, and said, "You are going to be beaten badly today." When you are beaten later, you have to be honest, don't have a resisting expression, I will plead with Brother Guang for you later, let him be lighter, my old face can still sell some face. ”

Qu Nian said: "Thank you seniors, but you don't need to intercede, it doesn't matter." ”

The old ghost said: "I have given up on myself? I tell you, the days are still long! I was beaten half to death today, and I will come to work tomorrow." ”

Qu Nian said: "I know! The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. ”

The old ghost sighed again!

Fei Fei was a little anxious, and leaned close to Qu Nian and whispered: "Are you sure? If you are not sure, let people beg for intercession, and you must not slap your swollen face and become fat." ”

Qu Nian glanced at him and said, "Do you think that bald head will let you go?"

Fei Fei said: "That's always better." ”

Qu Nian said: "Maybe he's even angrier and smokes harder!"

Fei Fei thought about it and seemed to make some sense, so he didn't squeak, but he was nervous in his heart.

It was already evening, and there were two tables outside the cave, one on each side, with scales on them, and four or five people were weighing at each table.

Those piglets held the bowl in their hands, walked to the balance scale, and poured the smelting stone in their hands on the tray above, because these piglets are digging every day, weighing every day, so they have a number in their hearts, basically they are enough to make up one or two, and pour on the scale, and the pointer just reaches the middle position.

Because these piglets are not self-motivated, or they don't expect to get the shining star, so they basically don't make statistics below two or two, and there is a person on the side who takes a cloth bag and directly pours these refining crystals into the cloth bag, and these people are also familiar with the road, so the speed is very fast, although there are four or five hundred people on each side, but it is only a stick of incense, and the refining crystals on both sides are almost finished, and it is already the turn of the old ghost!

The old ghost poured the spar from the bowl on the tray, which was just enough for one or two, so the person with the cloth bag poured the spar into the cloth bag without saying a word.

The piglets who had already handed over the spar refining stone did not leave, but stood in line in front, neatly lined up, all facing the entrance of the cave, so after the old ghost handed over the public grain, he turned his head and glanced at the four people of Qu Nian, his eyes were full of sympathy, and then he sighed and walked over to line up.

Behind the old ghost is Qu Nian, Qu Nian walked to the balance, and was about to pour the smelting spar in his hand as well, but the person who looked at the scale looked at his bowl, there were only a few, less than ten, and then said: "You don't want to weigh it!" looked at the three people behind him, and said: "Don't weigh the four of you, it's a waste of time." ”

Qu Nian and the four of them poured the smelting stones in the bowl directly into the cloth bag on the side, and prepared to go over and line up.

As a result, the master of the cave on the side said angrily at this time: "You stand on the side, and you still have the face to line up?"

The four of them did not speak, but put the bowl in the wooden box beside the table, and walked to the side.

The girl also walked to the balance at this time, poured the spar in the bowl into the scale, and the person who looked at the scale glanced at it and said, "About seven dollars, even if it is seven dollars!"

The girl was experienced, and it was not equal to the cave master's orders, so she threw the bowl in her hand into the wooden box, walked to the side, and stood with the four of them.

When the girl finished weighing, both sides were weighed, and nearly a thousand people weighed down, but the four of them did not reach the goal.

At this time, the person holding the cloth bag on the right walked to the left, poured the smelting stone into a bag, and then there was an old man who took a small hook scale, hooked the cloth bag, weighed it, dialed the scale rod to the horizontal position, and then showed the scale to the master of the cave, and said: "Master Yu, take a look at the scale, a total of one hundred and three catties and four taels, there is no problem, right?"

Yu Dongzhu had a cold face, and water could be wrung out of his face, but he didn't look at it at this time, and he didn't have the heart to look at it, he just said: "Whatever!"

The old man put down the scale and said to the people on the side: "Hole No. 9, one hundred and three pounds and four taels!"

There was a young man with an account book on the side, and he spread it out on the table and recorded the data.

After the record was finished, the old man carried a cloth bag, took a few people, put the scales on, and left. Although the spar refining stone looks only a little bigger than a sesame seed, it is much heavier than a sesame seed, otherwise a hundred would not be able to reach one or two, so a hundred catties of spar refining stone, looking like only one or two catties of sesame seeds, is not conspicuous at all in a cloth bag.

After these people left, Yu Dong Master finally turned around and looked at the four of Qu Nian, nodded, sneered, and said, "You guys are here to mess around, right?

Qu Nian said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "We came on the first day today, and we are inexperienced. ”

Yu Cave Master sneered and said, "Is lack of experience the reason?"

After all, he is also a person with status, and he doesn't want to talk nonsense with these piglets, so he turned his head and looked at the bald head and said: "Why are you still stunned, one person has a hundred lashes, to set an example." ”

The bald three stood opposite, and then shook the whip in their hands and walked over with a sneer.

Fei Fei was so frightened that his calves trembled a little.

The old ghost in the distance sighed again.

The bald head walked in front of Qu Nian at this time, shook the whip in his hand again, and slammed it, just when he was about to whip Qu Nian, Qu Nian shouted: "Wait a minute!"

If it was the cave master who let out a pause, everyone would be accustomed to it, and they wouldn't react much, but this pause came out of the mouth of a piglet, and everyone was startled, including the bald head and the cave master!

Yu Dong Master was in a trance, no pig had ever dared to shout in front of him, so he pointed at him and said angrily: "Do you want to rebel?"

Qu Nian was still neither humble nor arrogant, straightened his waist, and said: "Master Yu, I just told you, the reason why we didn't complete the task today is not because we are lazy, but because we are groping for experience, sharpening knives and cutting wood, after a day of exploration, now we have finally found experience." You give us another chance, tomorrow, one of us will hand over five taels of refining crystals, a lot of money. ”

Yu Dongzhu was slightly stunned and said, "Five taels for one person, are you sure you are not wrong?"

Qu Nian said: "That's right, it's five taels for one person, twenty taels for four people, and not a penny will be less." ”

Yu Dongzhu couldn't help but look him up and down, although he was a piglet, but he was calm and unhurried, quite a few momentum, not like a scoundrel who was a fool. Then he said, "Are you sure you're not joking?"

Qu Nian said: "You are a sword, I am a fish, how dare I joke? So many people have seen it, if the four of us can't hand over twenty taels tomorrow, you will directly whip us to death, and we will never complain." ”

Yu Dong Master couldn't guess his intentions, and felt that he was just procrastinating, but he didn't look like a stupid person, isn't it interesting to delay for a day? And the consequences of delaying for a day will only be more serious! This made him a little curious, so he said, "What experience have you found?"

Qu Nian said: "I can't say it, the cave master will just see the results tomorrow!"

The bald head said: "Cave master, this guy is obviously procrastinating for time, he can have a fart experience, today is completely lazy, I see it in my eyes, don't believe his nonsense, tomorrow they will definitely not be able to dig it out." ”

Yu Dong turned his head to look at him and said, "Then tomorrow will be different, can they run tonight?"

The bald man said, "Okay then! Then I'll fight again tomorrow." He pointed to Qu Nian and the four of them: "Don't think about being clever, if you can't dig up twenty taels of refining crystals tomorrow, it won't be a matter of a hundred whips, and you will be whipped into minced meat directly." ”
