Chapter 331: Returning in vain

was quietly made by Wen Wen, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

"Twenty-eighty-five, no, Brother Xiaoyi, why didn't you say it earlier. ”

Ding Yuqiang's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and his expression changed from stern to gentle: "You are a friend of Lord Meng, and we are our own people." ”

If Meng Jianwen came one step later and killed Xiao Yi by mistake, then it would be a big trouble, Ding Yuqiang was still afraid when he thought about it.

"I just need to go to the central mining area, Lord Ding, can I go through the formalities?"

People like this who turn their faces faster than flipping books, Yichen has seen a lot, and he is not surprised.

It's just that he doesn't know who this Meng Jianwen is, and even Ding Yuqiang, the deputy capital, has to listen to his orders.

"This is it, this is it. Ding Yuqiang hurriedly agreed, and quickly completed the formalities.

"Lord Dream is a general in the General's Mansion, and his official position is not big, but he is General Xiang's sworn brother, and his status in the General's Mansion is second only to General Xiang. ”

Out of the compound, the foreman followed Yichen and explained: "Lord Meng's words generally represent General Xiang, and no one dares to object." ”

After listening to the foreman's explanation, Yichen seemed to understand a little, but he felt even more incomprehensible.

When he said that he wanted to come to the mining area, Meng Jianwen strongly objected, but today in front of many people, he broke the rules of the central mining area.

Why did he help himself, and he publicly ordered Ding Yuqiang to do something that violated the regulations of the mining area.

Another point, when he was in Qilian Town, the masked man who blocked Ding Yuqiang's palm should be Meng Jianwen.

And the black shadow on the roof of the volunteer regiment, although it came and went in a hurry, but judging from the figure, it was still him.

This Dream Jianwen, who has encountered himself several times, is it intentional, or is it a coincidence?

There are many suspicions, the suspicions are very big, Yichen is difficult to judge for a while, fortunately, he has obtained the qualification to enter the central mining area, or report first.

The treatment of the central mining area is much better than that of the peripheral mining area.

In the dormitory of ordinary miners, only six people live in one room, while miners who have reached the fifth rank of war generals can get a slightly smaller single dormitory per person.

Moreover, because the central mining area is very well guarded, the management of miners at night is relatively casual.

As long as you do not enter or leave the critical parts of the mining area and do not violate the ban, you will generally not interfere.

Yichen sorted it out a little, and then passed the place where Yi Xiao said to hide the weapons to Guò Xinyu and told him about the summer night.

This is a batch of excellent weapons obtained by accident, which replenished the weapons and equipment for the volunteer group for free, and also brought great help to the summer night to build the volunteer group.

Next, Yichen participated in normal miner labor during the day, and it seemed very busy, and many people were so tired that they bared their teeth, but for him, this work could only be regarded as a warm-up at most.

The really hard thing is that at night, because I got a separate dormitory, I closed the door after I came back, and basically no one would disturb me, and Yichen felt that it was very convenient.

The time to sleep is very short, and throughout the night, there are two main things, one is to practice, which is a habit that Yichen has developed for many years, especially in the dead of night, the effect of practice is better than usual.

In addition, the thing that I am most concerned about at present is to quickly familiarize myself with the environment of the central mining area and provide guarantee for my next move.

The guards at night in the central mining area are more guarded than during the day, the lights are bright, there are almost no dead ends, as long as you step into the central area, there is no zài how to cover up.

Although the official patrol is based on a relatively fixed time, the density and coverage area are very large, and even around the corners, wherever it is possible to hide, they will not let go.

A few days ago, a miner got up in the middle of the night to relieve himself, and he was caught in the wrong place without knowing how to run in the wrong position.

Syllable......

Yichen stealthily threw a stone from the corner of the wall and smashed it on the other wall.

If it was daytime, such a small sound would hardly go unnoticed, but at the moment it is extremely harsh.

"Who?"

I felt that as soon as the stone landed, I heard the voice of the official messenger.

Boom~~

In just a few breaths, where the stone landed, seven or eight neatly equipped officials appeared, surrounded in several directions.

This is just Yichen's stone-throwing asking for directions, and the location is also random, the purpose is to see if the guards in the central mining area of the General's Mansion are effective.

The result of the trial made Yichen gasp.

Those seven or eight officials, all of whom are above the eighth rank of the generals, are agile in their movements, their pace is consistent, and the swords on their bodies are all high-grade weapons.

With such a lineup, even if the intruder's cultivation reaches the level of a battle commander powerhouse, it may not be able to kill them in an instant.

If there is a slight delay, there will be a large number of officials who will rush over to help in a very short time.

What made Yichen even more frightened was that not far from the scene, there were clearly two breaths of a strong man, one of whom turned out to be a mid-level commander...

"How's it going?" the voice of the battle commander asked, although it was very soft, but it was still very clear in the silent night.

"Report to the Commander, no living creatures have been found. Such an answer surprised Yichen again.

The co-authors had to guard against not only people, but also other creatures that might invade.

A small stone caused such a big movement, which shows how tightly guarded the General's Mansion is.

From this point of view, the number of strong commanders in the central mining area will never be less than fifty.

Just now, these two are just strong commanders in this area, and being able to arrive at the scene so quickly shows that the distance is relatively close.

And the entire central mining area, just the area that belongs to the forbidden area, is dozens of times larger than this small location.

Fortunately, Yichen is invisible, otherwise I am afraid that I would have already exchanged fire with them.

The mid-level powerhouse of the battle commander is not a threat to Yichen, but the huge central mining area will definitely be equipped with the high-level powerhouse of the battle commander, or even the peak powerhouse of the battle commander.

If the latter appears, even if he can't catch Yichen, he can destroy his plan of action, and more importantly, Yichen is not clear about the defensive configuration of the entire mining area.

Yichen retreated to the dormitory, simply closed the door tightly, twisted his body, and dived directly underground.

The underground of the central mine, which is made entirely of rock, travels extremely slowly and consumes a lot.

According to the direction of the cliff provided by Sun Tie, Yichen worked hard to move forward.

More than half an hour passed, Yichen felt that there was still half a distance from the cliff, although this road was very difficult to dive, but with more effort, he could barely go deeper.

If you follow the rules, it will take you another half an hour to reach the vicinity of the cliff, from where you should find your way to the land of the corpses.

The hiding place of Ruyi Stone Guts may be somewhere in the land of corpses.

Yichen knows that the land of corpses must be full of traps and dangers, but as long as he goes down, he will have a chance to get the Ruyi stone gall.

Hey......

Just when he was looking forward to a better future, he found that he could barely move forward.

The rocks around his body became denser and denser, and the huge squeezing force made the bones on Yichen's body creak.

Every time he went further, Yichen had to suffer the pain of splitting his muscles and bones, and his whole body was also compressed by rocks, and his internal organs were wrapped together, and there was no way to bear it.

The cliff here was formed by someone splitting the mountain with a palm tens of thousands of years ago, and half of the extra rock was forcibly driven into the ground and fused with the original rock.

After years of topographical changes, the fused rock truly forms a whole, and its strength and hardness have increased at least twice, even if it is blasted with gunpowder, the effect is not too good.

It is precisely because the rocks in this area have changed that only in the high-density ores will there be zài ruyi stone galls, and in the peripheral mining areas, even fist-sized stone galls are rare.

Yichen had no choice but to return in vain.

After a period of attempts, Yichen failed to find a path to the cliff from all directions.

However, although he did not reach the cliff, there were some unexpected gains.

During a sneak walk, I accidentally found a fist-sized cobblestone, embedded in the middle of the rock, shiny, and very different from the ordinary rocks around it.

Curious, Yichen carefully peeled the cobblestone out of the rock, brought it back to take a look, and was immediately overjoyed.

Ruyi stone gall...

Although it is only the size of a fist, it seems insignificant compared to Sun Tie's lost Ruyi stone gall, but it is also a real Ruyi stone gall.

The unexpected harvest boosted Yichen's confidence, and for the next few days, he would dive underground every night.

Every once in a while, Yichen can dig out a piece of Ruyi stone gall, some the size of an egg, and some about the same as a fist.

Looking at the sun and moon space, there are already seven or eight wishful stone galls, and Yichen can be regarded as having a trace of comfort.

During this period, according to Yichen's instructions, Xia Ye got more than 150 weapons by Shun Lì, and the worst ones could be used by the Eight Rank masters.

Most of the swords, of high quality, are used by the strong and powerful soldiers, not only handy, but also can increase their own strength.

In addition, there are also a lot of valuable goods such as crystal coins hidden in the cave, which is the legacy left by Yixiao and them for many years of crimes.

The replenishment of these materials provided sufficient financial resources for the volunteer regiment to recruit soldiers and horses, and the confidence to build an iron army in the summer night was even stronger.

"Starting today, two hours of working hours will be added every day, and no one will be allowed to take leave..."

After announcing the regulations of the central mining area, the foreman left in a hurry.

"Two hours, how can you afford to eat?"

"Fuck, let's kill us, I'm not going to do it. ”

When the foreman was there, the miners did not dare to complain, and as soon as the foreman left, everyone whispered.

"I heard that this batch of ore was robbed by a gang of robbers of unknown origin. ”

A miner of the five grades of the war general said mysteriously:

"Jiuyou has not received the ore, urging General Xiang to send it within a month. ”

"The ore of the General's Mansion, someone actually dared to rob it and eat the gall of the leopard?"

Yichen listened, but his heart sank: "Could it be that he did it?"
