Gu Xiaowu lost control of his body the moment he was pointed at by that strange little flag, and involuntarily walked towards the front, and suddenly the person in front of him disappeared, and then he seemed to have entered another world. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info stepped on a mountain road paved with black stones, and there were black rocks on both sides, and I wanted to look up to see how high the mountains on both sides were, but my body still couldn't control it, and the disappeared people appeared in front of me again, and the farthest point of my eyes could see the gray-clothed boy strolling ahead.

Is that young man an immortal, and only an immortal can control so many people with a spell, then this is the place of the immortals, what do the immortals want so many of us to do? The immortals shouldn't kill us, right? These messy thoughts not only appeared in Gu Xiaowu's mind, but some people thought that they would beg the immortals to see if they could let them go at the first opportunity, and even more fantasized about whether they were chosen by the immortals, and were ready to teach themselves the Dao of the Immortal Gate.

After half a day, people appeared in an empty valley. At this time, people were suddenly free to move, but no one dared to move a bit. Gu Xiaowu quietly looked at everything around him, this valley was surrounded by towering cliffs on three sides, and the only way out might be the black stone road when he came. Kotani found nothing but a few rows of wooden houses in the center.

At this time, four gray-clothed people in the same costume appeared next to the gray-clothed young man, but they were of different ages, the two older ones were already full of white hair and wrinkled faces, one was only six or seven years old, and the other was a middle-aged Confucian with a ruddy face and two mustaches.

One of the older men asked expressionlessly, "Senior Brother Tong, these are the people who came in from outside this time?" It seems that it is less than half of the previous ones. ”

"Back to Senior Brother, I heard that this time it was because of the insertion of Huangmei Ridge and Gravel Cliff that a large part of the captured slaves were taken away. Fortunately, the war outside is still going on, and there should be another batch to be sent over in the near future. The boy surnamed Tong returned respectfully.

"Well, there are fewer people, so you can't waste them at will, these five hundred people will all stay here, who makes this place the most lacking people, send the people directly to me next time, and maybe send some female slaves next time." Senior Brother Yu will be guarding the Blackstone Mine for the next year, but you and Senior Brother Tong will guard the Blackstone Mine, so you have to take care of these people. The middle-aged gray-clothed Confucian turned his head and said with a smile to the boy.

"No, Senior Brother Li is worried," the boy said with a frown.

"Senior Brother Yu, Senior Brother Tong will leave it to you here, let's go. The old man who spoke first said to the others, and then disappeared in front of them. The middle-aged man looked at it and then pouted and disappeared, and the other old man who had never spoken disappeared with him.

The gray-clothed boy surnamed Tong watched the others disappear without a trace, and then looked at the boy, seeing his expressionless face, he coughed lightly and said to the five hundred people below who knew nothing, "This is the Black Stone Mine, you should be ready to work here, first of all, you can be released after five years of labor here, but if someone wants to escape and make trouble, it can only be said that they are looking for death." Saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the back of the crowd, Gu Xiaowuyi turned around and saw two big men with separated corpses lying on the road in the distance. It turned out that after the two of them found out that they could move, they quietly moved to the end and ran back along the path, but they didn't know how to die on the road. When people saw this scene, they put down some careful thoughts a little, and first understand the surrounding environment. I saw the gray-clothed young man continue, "Tomorrow you can rest for a day and get a day's food, after which only those who dig this ore can get food to eat, a bag of ore for a day's food. The rest will be told to you by the people in your house. Secondly, those who make trouble here will be burned alive by me. The gray-clothed young man flashed out of his hand a black stone the size of an egg and showed them it, it was a stone that exuded a black-purple luster, and if you didn't distinguish it carefully, it was easy to be confused with the ordinary black stones around it. Before anyone could see it, the boy put away the stone, and what appeared in his hand was a ball of fire, emitting an unbearable scorching heat. After a flash, it turned into two meteors and floated towards the two corpses, burning them to ashes in the blink of an eye. In the face of the immortals who can hide without a shadow and kill people silently, these people have carefully put away their thoughts, five years is not very long, if you are lucky, you can go out in five years, maybe let's see the situation first. No one dares to prick a fool in front of an immortal-like person, let alone that they have only heard of immortals before, but have not seen them yet.

"Senior Brother Tong's fireball technique is becoming more and more exquisite. The boy's eyelids jumped.

"Senior brother only relies on his special physique to refine this spell, and his cultivation is not as good as that of his senior brother, so let's rest and leave it to me here." ”

Gu Xiaowu followed the nine people in front of him into a room, there was nothing in the room except for wooden planks on the ground, and a thin man in his forties sat cross-legged on a wooden plank and looked at them. He clutched a tattered blanket in his hand and looked up at them with nervous and excited expressions. Seeing that they were staring at him and no one spoke, after a while, he opened his mouth and said in a voice like a broken gong, "You can choose the ten wooden beds left here, rest for one night, and tomorrow I will take you to familiarize yourself with everything here, and warn you not to try to escape, because no one can get out of this valley, and the path is full of traps arranged by immortals, and if you touch it, you will die, and no one knows how to go." Then, without waiting for the others to say something, he turned around and lay down with his back to them. The remaining ten people looked at each other, and finally had no choice but to find a bed to lie down and rest, at this time it was slowly getting dark, and everything could only wait until tomorrow. Gu Xiaowu's bed was the farthest away from the strange man and the closest to the toilet, he endured the weakness of his body and lay down, and the rancid smell emanating from his body and surroundings could no longer disturb him. I haven't eaten for a day, and I can only endure the pain in my stomach, so I should be able to eat a full meal tomorrow, right?

Gu Xiaowu had a strange dream all night, dreaming that he had become an immortal like the boy in gray who could call the wind and rain and fly to the sky, he could eat well, sleep well, and ...... , in the end, he even dreamed that he would get married and have children, and live happily all his life.

On the first day in the valley, Gu Xiaowu woke up with a stronger hunger, not the first to wake up, nor the last to wake up, one of them stayed asleep again, and he didn't know that he was hungry. The strange thin man got up and walked over and pushed the man who was still sleeping twice, seeing that there was no response, he tentatively touched it, frowned and said to the remaining few people who were sitting on the bed stunned: "He is dead", and then touched the dead man expressionlessly, but found nothing, and then walked to the front of the house in disappointment and said, "Go, go to get food first." Come back and deal with it. ”

When the others heard that they could eat, they didn't care about it anymore, and they all jumped up and looked at the thin man as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Gu Xiaowu was also among them, he looked at the man who was still "sleeping", and he didn't know when he would die like him, it was okay like that, there was no pain. After following the "leader" out, he walked behind and felt the gold chain and jade pendant in his arms, which he dragged off from the big fat man, and when he was caught, the guards saw that he was a skinny man, trembling all over his body and being thrown in front of him like a fool, and he didn't bother to search, and directly kicked into the team, so he left this wealth. Gu Xiaowu felt the warmth on the jade pendant, and decided that if he ate them in his stomach before he died, he would also have a golden jade body after death.

Today is undoubtedly the best and fullest day I have eaten since I became a soldier, and one person was given two large buns to eat, as well as a bowl of broth. When I started to go outside, I saw a group of people standing in front of me, and I thought I couldn't eat again. Unexpectedly, there was no noise in front of me, no one spoke loudly, no one made trouble, and no one robbed. Seeing the thin and eccentric man's expression, the others didn't dare to say anything, and lined up quietly. When the curious people inquired, they just knew that it was not that no one was making trouble, and they were all so hungry that they couldn't react when they saw food? But when two people who fought for food were burned alive in front of people, no one dared to make a mistake. Anyway, they all get the same amount, and it's better to endure it than to burn it to death, isn't it?

After breakfast, Gu Xiaowu and eight other people were in the house listening to a thin man named Liu Hai talk about the details and rules of the Black Stone Mine. The dead man had already been carried out, placed in a corner of the mine, and someone would come and burn it.

The rules of the Blackstone Mine are very simple, as mentioned earlier, a piece of Black Purple Ore can be exchanged for a meal, and a room of people can go into a mine in a group to mine. The rule on the earth is that there is no provocation to cause trouble, everything must be done with caution, if the loud voice annoys any immortal, it may be killed. But at the bottom, people have to be wary of each other, there are no rules. Although the occurrence of dead people is rare, there are still cases of grabbing mines for a meal, because there are many more people who die under the mines than on the ground because of the lax management. Especially now that there are a lot fewer mines in the mines, you have to go to the innermost tunnel to dig down. As a result, for every group of people who came in, there were less than two hundred people left in the last two years. Hearing this, Gu Xiaowu was completely speechless, and in front of the weak, he thought that he would only be eaten. In addition, the ore can also be exchanged for some daily necessities and medicines. These will happen, but it usually depends on whether new mines can be discovered.

This day passed slowly in Gu Xiaowu's anxious waiting, and three full meals became Gu Xiaowu's most satisfying thing, no need to be snatched away, calmly took the food from the hands of two deaf and dumb old women, sat on the bed and ate it slowly, no need to look at other people's faces, no need to care about other people's wolf-like eyes. He introduced himself and met his companions in the house, the youngest of whom was him, less than fifteen years old, and the eldest of them was an old man surnamed Fan, who was in his fifties, but still looked very strong. The others were between twenty-five and thirty-five, simple peasants who had wives and children to support at home, and who had served in the military to pay taxes. When they heard that there were some people who had left here for five years, they had to try to live here, they didn't believe in Liu Hai's words very much, nor did they believe in the promises of the immortals, but they only had such a hope that they could be free and meet their families, they didn't dare to resist, there was no way out, and the rest was only humble obedience.
