Chapter 43: Becoming a Miner

The mine cave was narrow and dark, only the two small oil lamps on the top could barely point the way, Ji Ruling followed behind the squad leader, and the prisoners who rubbed the marks around him carried frames of crimson ore from inside, and the prison uniforms on their bodies had long been stained and could not see their original color, and the sweat on their heads carried the dust on their bodies, and black sweat stains on their cheeks. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

I don't know how long it took to go deeper, the head of the squad stopped, and pointed to a slightly open place on the side, "It's here, go in and dig, don't be lazy, be careful that Lao Tzu whips you to death!"

Ji Ruling ignored him at all, but concentrated on observing the mine, just came in all the way, there were no less than dozens of forks, there were the sound of axes and chisels inside, the mine in front of him was still very new, it seemed that it had just been excavated, but the mine road had not yet arrived, and there was no point inside, and there seemed to be a majestic wind blowing in the dark depths.

Picking up a chisel and shovel, Ji Ruling turned into a miner again.

"Don't be lazy, go up and drink saliva, dare to be lazy, be careful of Lao Tzu's whip" The team leader also felt that the hole was hot, stuffy and dirty, and he didn't want to stay longer, so he turned around and left.

"Yuan Chenggang, don't be complacent, if you want to find Lao Tzu's stubble, don't think about it!" The chisel smashed on the mountain wall, and the pieces of gravel were smashed down, and they were put into the bamboo frame behind them, and they had to travel a long distance to transport them out, and then come back with an empty frame to continue digging.

After only going back and forth a few times, the clothes that I had just changed into were dirty and I couldn't look at them, but the team leader standing at the door of the mine still urged vigorously, and from time to time used a whip to draw out a crackling sound on the ground to intimidate everyone.

"Young man, take it easy, no one will praise you if you do it quickly" The old man next to him sat on the ground, lit a bag of cigarettes, and wiped the black mud on his face with a blackened towel hanging around his neck.

"Lord He?" Ji Ruling recognized the old man in front of him at a glance, it was the former Zuo Prime Minister He Tangzheng, grandfather and Prime Minister He Cheng were called the two heroes of Yan State during his lifetime, grandfather Zhu Wu, commanding the army to fight, Prime Minister He Cheng presided over the text, assisted King Yan, and led the ministers, this is exactly the two of them, pushing the Yan Kingdom to the most powerful period, but unfortunately after the death of the grandfather, the upright He Cheng was dismissed from office on the contrary to the new king, I thought that he had returned to his hometown, and he lived for a long time, but he didn't expect to meet him here.

"Oh, are you..."When Prime Minister He Cheng saw Ji Ruling, he was still a babbling child, but now more than ten years have passed, so naturally he doesn't know him.

"I'm Ji Ruling, you forgot, you still hugged me, just side by side in the palace, when I was full moon"

Prime Minister He seemed to recall, and suddenly realized, "It turned out to be a kid from the Ji family, and you were also caught here, could it..."

"Don't worry, Lord He, I'm already the new side-by-side king now, but you, haven't you returned to your hometown?"

"I'm happy to impeach Yan with the palace minister, he will let me go so easily, hey, not to mention it's been more than ten years, I've long been used to it" Prime Minister He indifferently spit out a puff of smoke rings, as if he had seen everything in life.

"Don't worry, you are my grandfather's best friend, I will definitely save you out" Ji Ruling has already begun to think about the rescue plan in his head.

"Forget it, I'm old, and I don't have a long time to live, the outside is heavily guarded, the masters are like clouds, and the guard Yuan Shi is a master of the seven layers the day after tomorrow, if you want to escape from here, you still stay here for three months, hurry back to the imperial city"

"Don't worry, I'll figure it out" Now if you want to fight with the acquired martial artist, it's like hitting a stone with an egg, not to mention the nearly 10,000 soldiers and more than a dozen heavy bows and crossbows here, if you want to get out of here, you have to be extremely prepared.

"Uncle He, where is the other end of the mine?" asked Ji Ruling, pointing to the dark passage, he had been here for so many years, maybe he knew.

"I haven't been in either, it existed long before the Yuan family came, and all the people who went in for more than ten years have never come out, I advise you not to fight the idea of going there"

"Yes" Ji Ruling glanced at the depths of the dark mine again, and the soul power was a hundred meters deep and did not feel the end, it seemed to be like a bottomless pit.

"Snap" A leather whip fell from the sky and landed on Ji Ruling's body, but he had a wedding dress to protect his body, and he didn't feel pain at all, "I know that you guys are lazy, and you can't leave for a while, cheap bones!"

"I know, I know, don't make any noise" Ji Ruling picked up his attainments again and picked them up one by one.

This work lasted five or six hours, and when he got out of the mine, it was almost dawn, and the head of the team let everyone go to sleep, but only for two hours.

Jing Guan is now Ji Ruling's body is strong and healthy, but after staying in that small space for a long time, he still has back pain.

He lay on the ground on two thin layers of quilts, took out the seal talisman given to him by the fat man, and it was impossible to improve his strength in a short time to be able to fight against the acquired master, so he could only go sideways.

Now that this level of seal talisman, it is already the limit of using second-order martial arts, and this level of attack cannot hurt Yuan Shi at all.

If you can increase the power of the seal, maybe you can have a chance.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone was resting, Ji Ruling took out a bottle of demon beast blood, some elixir, and some spiritual jade powder, said a little light of the sunset, and painted on the seal with a brush.

It is very dangerous to add to the seal that has already been completed, and the slightest mistake will be wasted and turned into a piece of waste paper.

I was not proficient when I first came to get started, and I scrapped more than a dozen in a row, which made Ji Ruling feel distressed, and it was good to be proficient later.

The latter is good, in addition to seizing the time to draw more seals, Ji Ruling also pasted the improved seals in the hidden places of the mine, just waiting for an opportunity.

Soon more than half a month passed, getting up early every day, greedy for darkness, and not having enough meals, which reminded Ji Ruling of the scene when she just left the village in her previous life and sought a life.

"Bang, bang, bang" The ruthless leather whip fell like raindrops, and the old man on the ground struggled weakly, and his body was already beaten with blurred flesh and blood, "You are an old immortal, you dare to remember this, I will kill you!"

Ji Ruling just came out of the house, and when he saw Prime Minister He Cheng lying on the ground, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "You give me an assistant!"

"What kind of thing are you, you dare to talk to me like this, believe it or not, Lao Tzu even beat you together" The head of the squad was unscrupulous, wielding a leather whip to whip him.

Ji Ruling went up and grabbed his own leather whip in both directions, and with a strong arm, he grabbed the whip and smashed it on the ground, and there was immediately an extra pit on the ground.

A mouthful of blood poured out of the leader's mouth, and he fainted instantly.

Ji Ruling hurriedly went to help Prime Minister He Cheng, the old man was already dying, he took out a healing medicine to feed him, but was refused.
