For monks in the Qi refining period, spirit stones are sometimes more valuable than their own lives. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because it is difficult for monks in the Qi refining period to obtain spirit stones, especially for those who have no sect and no sect, when the realm is low, the cultivation career is even incredibly short.

Maybe once you experience a dangerous place, you will never come back.

Loose cultivation without the protection of the sect, when he first began to cultivate, he was as fragile as a fledgling, and if he really went through this arduous journey, he would be more suitable for the cultivation world than the disciples of the sect.

The lowest-level casual cultivation is the most difficult to cultivate, which many people know, and the name of the money in front of Xu Yan is also very clear, he thinks that once he is expelled from the sect, his cultivation path will be ruined.

It is not strange that Qian Ming has this kind of thought, the suffering of scattered cultivation is by no means comparable to the disciples of the sect, and it is better to stay in the sect, even if he suffers, than to be in all directions.

On the grounds of twenty spirit stones, Xu Yan easily frightened the other party, and soon learned about Qian Ming's background.

Qian Ming was born in a big family, but he suffered the defeat of the family in middle age, and finally left his hometown, took his wife and daughter into exile, and defected to the Earth Sword Sect by chance.

Born rich and noble, coinciding with the fall of his family, wandering for many years and becoming a monk again, Qian Ming has experienced poverty and great wealth, so he has a crazy paranoia about staying in the Earth Sword Sect, even if his daughter stood up for him and offended the spirit mine steward and was expelled from the sect, Qian Ming did not dare to be angry, and worked diligently year after year, just to pay off his debts, just to stay in the sect.

It's just a simple experience, it's not unusual, after learning the origin of the other party, Xu Yan's heart flashed with three words.

Loser.

Qian Ming is very rich, even if such a person stays in the sect, his cultivation will not be high.

The nest waste has the advantage of the nest waste, that is, once it is completely deterred, the other party will not dare to give birth to two hearts.

"It turned out that I was killed by a gangster, who is the manager who harmed you, I have a problem, and I have to be peaceful. Xu Yan helped the other party up, and the spirit pickaxe was also stuffed to Qian Ming, and said with a pleasant face.

"Senior brother is angry, senior brother is angry!"

As soon as Qian Ming heard that he had met a nosy man, his face suddenly turned white, and the thousand spirit stones he owed had been repaid more than half in the past two years, and he would have paid it back after a year and a half of hard work.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault for breaking the spirit mine, it has nothing to do with Steward Chen, it's all my fault!"

I didn't expect Qian Ming's courage to be so small, Xu Yan shook his head and said: "Okay, okay, I don't care about idle things, let's go, let's go back to the spirit mine." ”

"Oh, yes, yes. Qian Ming was a little relieved, and grabbed the spirit pickaxe to lead the way.

The Spirit Mine of the Earth Sword Sect was to the west of the mountain range, not too far from Yi Bao Pavilion, and in about half an hour, after turning a high mountain, Xu Yan saw the mine cave area.

The mining caves of the Earth Sword Sect are not much different from those of Linyuan Island, but they are extremely huge, there are three main mines alone, which are at the foot of the three adjacent high mountains, and the disciples belonging to the spiritual mining area are busy, hauling ores of different sizes, which look like ant caves from a distance.

"Senior brother, I'm here, don't worry, I will definitely return twenty spirit stones tomorrow. Qian Ming also thought that Xu Yan was on duty in the other two mines, or a disciple of foundation building who took over the task of mining veins.

"Is this mining?" Xu Yan looked at the mine, his face softened more and more, but his gaze became a little strange.

"Yes, with the spirit pickaxe, the spirit stones earned this month will definitely not be less, if the senior brother is not in a hurry, can you allow me to return your spirit stones next month, our spirit mine disciples will work for a month before the spirit stone will be uniformly paid, if the senior brother can't wait, I will find other senior brothers to make up a few pieces, and I should have to return the spirit stones of the senior brother tomorrow." Qian Ming found that the other party hadn't left, and he was a little cramped, and he had to say his plea for returning the spirit stone next month.

Xu Yan generously agreed, and he was so happy that he had to dance with his hands, cursed and swore to return the spirit stone as soon as he arrived next month, and then took the spirit pickaxe, walked into the mine quickly, and quickly integrated into the many spirit mine disciples.

The same is true of Xu Yan's figure, not far from Qian Ming, following behind.

It is better to have someone to lead the way than to ask around, and Xu Yan, who came to the mine, seemed to see a mountain of spirit stones beckoning to him in the depths of the mine.

Soon after, the spacious main mine branched out, with railroad tracks winding deep underground, and minecarts being pushed out from time to time, and the entire mine was full of busy figures.

After a cursory observation, Xu Yan estimated that the monks in this main mine cave were at least three thousand, and this was just one mine cave, and the three huge mine caves together could have as many as 10,000 disciples on the spiritual vein side of the Earth Sword Sect!

Qian Ming is just a small Qi Refining Disciple, and his talent is mediocre, Qi Refining Disciples like him are the most common in the Earth Sword Sect, and there are many of them, most of them are assigned to places like mines that need to work.

Along the way, Qian Ming greeted several familiar fellow doors, and happily came to the end of a branch mine with a spirit pickaxe, and picked up the spirit pickaxe to continue mining.

"If you're lazy, you'll really find a time, you don't need to open a mine today, you're in charge of transporting minecarts this month. ”

A lazy word sounded, and a middle-aged steward in blue came over from a distance, this person had a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and his eyes were cold, staring at Qian Ming and commanding coldly.

"Steward Chen, I'm not lazy, my spirit pickaxe is useless, I just went to Yibao Pavilion to buy a new one, just to come back to open the mine in a hurry." Qian Ming trembled when he saw the person coming, and hurriedly explained: "It's only been half a month, I have dug a lot of spiritual mines, this month's remuneration will definitely not be less, Steward Chen, you can do well, let me transport the mine cart next month." ”

Spirit Mine disciples have different tasks, the difference is the number of spirit stones earned.

If it is a mine, the amount of ore mined per month is used to settle the spirit stones for the disciples, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can earn a lot of spirit stones in January.

For the task of transporting a minecart, the reward of spirit stones is fixed, which is much easier than mining a mine, but the reward of spirit stones is less than that of mining.

One is an easier task of transporting a minecart and earns less spirit stones, and the other is a hard mine and earns more spirit stones, and the disciples who were originally assigned two kinds of tasks will not change the task halfway, if they change, when the spirit stones are settled at the end of the month, they will naturally calculate the spirit stones according to the tasks that were changed later.

In other words, this Chen steward left for a while with Qian Ming, went to Yi Bao Pavilion to buy the introduction of the spirit pickaxe, and forcibly changed the task, so if it was not a deliberate revenge, then Qian Ming was not welcomed.

Xu Yan was mixed in with a group of disciples who were mining and watched from a distance.

In Xu Yan's opinion, this Steward Chen should be the one who framed Qian Ming, with a piece of broken ore, it is said that he can refine ten high-grade spirit stones, this kind of deliberate framing should have a reason, and it should not be for no reason.
