Chapter Twenty-Nine: Iron Ore Pith

The plains sent a fresh breeze, carrying dryness, blowing the young man, and he became more and more worried.

"Do you want to ask if you are confused by the ghost, or if she charms you?" said Yi Nian teasingly, his words full of mockery, he had been hiding in it just now, but he was satisfied with watching a good show.

"Forget it, it's better to ask for others than for yourself, I should have thought that you were like this, and I shouldn't have asked you. Xuan Chen said coldly.

"Hey, you're a bit of a grumpy. Yi Nian said, glanced at the young man's heart lake, calm as a mirror, it seemed that he really didn't have the heart to talk to him.

So Yi Nian put away his cynical smile and replied seriously: "What about that girl, it must be simple, but she looks at you twice, one is far away, one is near, it is just an extremely superficial temptation, plus my strength is so badly damaged now, I can't see it too seriously." There is only a vague guess, so since I can't confirm the real reality, I don't dare to make a conclusion with you here. ”

Yi Nian thought seriously for a moment, and then said: "Although she attacked you for no reason, it seems that the person who came was not good, but in my opinion, she must have no ill will towards you, at least not murderous intentions." ”

Xuan Chen suddenly asked a strange question: "If she really kills someone one day, are you sure you can stop her?"

Yi Nian didn't explore why Xuanchen came to ask, and replied, "I can only keep you from dying." ”

Xuanchen nodded, "Understood?"

Yi Nian asked, "What do you want to do?"

Xuan Chen smiled, "How is it possible, I still have important things to do." ”

Yi Nian breathed a sigh of relief.

The two were silent, and Xuan Chen continued to chase after the man with Mo Qinghan. The thought of silence in the Rusty Sword kept a heavy look on his face for a long time. It can see the ripples in Xuanchen's heart lake, and it can also see some hidden things that others can't see even with their pupils. But the deeper human heart is too deep, and it can't do it.

After nine days of baptism, the teenager has undergone great changes in both his body and mood, which can be said to be a kind of growth. But in recent times, the boy seems to be no different from the past, and he still likes to talk to him mouth-to-mouth, arguing with him so much that his face is red. However, many times he showed calmness, so that Yi Nian once recalled it afterwards, and even had a strange feeling like a world away.

After that, along the way, Xuan Chen would chat with Mo Qinghan from time to time, looking flat, as if the real thing had passed, and he no longer thought about the unpleasant episodes before. But in fact, in the lake of his heart, the water is calm and the water is sinking, so it is quiet.

Now that the Mu family has obviously had the momentum to stir up the situation, this treacherous woman appeared at this time, even if she has no evil intentions at the moment, can she guarantee that the next time they meet again, will they still have no evil intentions?

Therefore, Xuanchen can't be spared if he treats this woman imprudently, and he has to guard against others. Moreover, in the turmoil of Yaobei City, he already has a plan, and he is even more worried about extraneous branches.

About half an hour later, a huge steel factory about ten zhang high and forty or fifty meters wide appeared in front of Xuanchen and Mo Qinghan.

A huge chimney stood tall, thick smoke billowed out, and the temperature of the surrounding air suddenly rose by a few points.

"This is the family's iron ore factory?" Mo Qinghan exclaimed, looking at the huge steel factory in front of him.

"This iron ore factory is owned by the Mo family?" Xuan Chen said in surprise.

Mo Qinghan nodded: "It is indeed the family that is in charge. ”

"That man must be in the iron ore factory. Xuanchen's telekinesis spread, sensing the faint aura left by that person.

"What is he doing here? Do you want me to find someone? There must be a master of the family in the iron ore factory. Mo Qinghan asked.

Xuan Chen refused and said: "Don't use it first, I'm afraid that if I am not careful, I will alarm other people, and it will be easy to startle the snake." ”

Mo Qinghan was a little puzzled, but he didn't refute, "That's okay, listen to you." ”

The two sneaked to a side gate next to the iron ore factory, where there was no guard, and the two took the opportunity to quickly dodge into the iron ore factory.

In the iron ore factory, piles of ore are piled up into small hills, and there are three or two workers on the edge of each ore pile, skillfully shoveling the ore into the smelting furnace.

In the workshop, the sound of shoveling ore, the sound of smelting ore in the furnace, and the various loud noises generated by the operation of other equipment can almost drown out any other movement. The two quickly walked through the factory and came to a small building in the back. Xuanchen sensed with his telekinesis that the person was in this small building.

There is a plaque with the word "warehouse" written on the top of the small building. However, the scale of this small building is not large, a little smaller than the ordinary two-story attic, if it is used to store the refined ore, it is obviously not enough, and it is a bit overkill.

This made Xuanchen very puzzled, so what should this warehouse be used to store?

"This is supposed to be the place where the 'iron ore pith' is stored. Mo Qinghan seemed to see through Xuanchen's doubts, and whispered beside him.

"Iron ore marrow?" Xuan Chen had heard of this for the first time.

"When refining iron ore, there is a chance that this kind of thing will be extracted from the ore, but it is one in ten thousand, and it is said that among the thousand catties of iron ore, there may be one or two taels of iron ore pith. Mo Qinghan explained.

"It's so rare, what does the iron ore pith do?" asked Xuanchen.

"When forging superior weapons or kosuke, iron ore pith is an indispensable key material. The iron ore pith looks like white gold, the texture is like glue, and the toughness is better than that of the silk. Mo Qinghan was full of praise for this iron ore marrow.

"Since it is such a precious material, how could the Mu family let the Mo family monopolize it?" Xuan Chen asked, he had a deep understanding of the Mu family's greed, and thought that in order to be able to take that Gathering Spirit Grass for himself, Mu Shusheng and a few people could be said to have done everything.

"Of course not. It's just that there was once a tragic battle for ore veins, and in order to compete for iron ore veins and copper ore veins, the family and the Mu family were killed and injured hundreds of people, and they paid an extremely painful price. At that time, although the family was slightly superior, if the two families continued to fight, they would inevitably die and they would be greatly injured. For the sake of a mine, everyone knows that it is not worth it.

"So the family and the Mu family signed a truce, the iron ore vein is owned by the family, the copper ore vein is owned by the Mu family, and then the family needs to provide the Mu family with 100 catties of iron ore pith every year as a balance, and correspondingly, the Mu family will also give 150 catties of 'copper essence' to the family. Mo Qinghan said, "'Copper essence' is slightly inferior to 'iron ore pith', but it is also an extremely precious material. ”

"Iron ore pith and copper essence, and the annual agreement is exchanged with each other?" Xuan Chen seemed to think of something, and immediately asked, "When is the next time the Mo family will hand over iron ore pith to the Mu family?"

"When?" I want to think about it......" Mo Qinghan frowned, lowered his head and thought about it, and after a few moments, his eyes lit up, "Ah, I thought about it, it seems to be tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow?" Xuan Chen's heart was shocked!

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps in the small warehouse building in front of the two. The next moment, the window on the second floor was pushed open, and a dark figure rushed out of it.

Exactly that person.

"Not good!" Xuan Chen saw that person's posture, and he unfolded his body and prepared to leave this place far away.

I saw that the person was particularly elegant, the person in black clothes was like a flexible and vigorous black cat, and his body instantly soared out a few meters away, and finally like a goose falling on the flat sand, he stepped on the eaves between the first floor and the second floor of the iron ore factory very lightly

He hurried along the eaves towards the outskirts of the iron ore factory, where there was an endless dense mountain forest. If you don't intercept it in time, when that person escapes into it, you will really swim into the sea.

At this time, it was meaningless to alarm the people in the iron ore factory, so Xuan Chen's aura surged at the moment, and several apes jumped onto the eaves of the iron ore factory.

Seeing this, Mo Qinghan hurriedly tapped his toes on the ground, leaped up, and followed behind Xuanchen.
