Chapter 27: A suffocation
Ye Chen raised his sword with both hands, slashed forward, and with a hiss, a sword light rushed away. The sword light was shining, and it broke through the air all the way, shattering the ghost qi of the Quartet, and bombarded the opposite wall in an instant.
Bang!
As soon as the sword light rushed, it exploded with a bang, and the earth trembled, and the violent explosion made the caves tremble slightly. Then, with a bang, a pile of broken rocks scattered in all directions, and smoke and dust rolled out, sweeping in all directions with a wave of air.
Smack!
"It's so strong!"
Yi Shui and Li Lao waved their hands slightly, knocked off the flying gravel, and looked ahead in surprise. They found that Ye Chen's figure did not move at all, and in front of him there was a huge and incomparably large hole, with a ghostly aura and smoke.
Crash!
"What's going on?"
At this time, a group of ghost soldiers strode in unison, all with serious expressions and cold swords. And Wu Ming, who took the lead, changed his expression greatly, and asked such a sentence while walking, as if he thought that something had happened.
"Wu Ming came just in time!"
As soon as Ye Chen saw the person coming, he immediately smiled, pointed forward, and said: "This place is the place that can lead to our original sub-ore vein, and this place will be handed over to you, just dig it according to this cave, and you will definitely be able to return to the sub-ore vein." β
"Oh, oh!
Wu Ming couldn't react a little, but he still nodded and replied twice, his mind was full of questions, what was the shock just now?
"Yi Shui, I'll leave it to you here!"
Ye Chen turned around and said with a smile, he said: "After all, you know the direction here, only if you personally guide and supervise here, so you won't make mistakes." β
"Don't worry, Pavilion Master, I will watch it carefully, and I won't interrupt!" Yi Shui replied calmly.
"Let's go back first!"
Ye Chen nodded with a smile, and walked out with a confused Wu Ming and Li Lao, leaving only Yi Shui and a hundred ghost pawns here. He looked at the disappeared Ye Chen and the others, and then turned around and began to tell everyone to excavate, and began to dig a long tunnel towards the hope of the future.
"Pavilion Master, the ore collector outside has come!"
As soon as Ye Chen walked out of the cave outside, such a ghost pawn came running and said such a sentence. The three of them moved slightly in their hearts, looked at each other, and saw the understanding in each other's eyes.
"Are you here?"
Ye Chen muttered this slightly, and then asked, "Have the ores been prepared, have they all been placed at the entrance of the cave?"
"Return to the Pavilion Master!"
The ghost pawn looked serious and said, "Everything has been done according to your instructions, just wait for the pavilion master to go and check!"
"Okay, you go and tell everyone to come back!"
Ye Chen ordered this, then turned his head and said, "Wu Ming, Elder Li, the two of you will take everyone to continue mining and cultivating, and I will go and see if I can find out a little news." β
"Yes, Pavilion Master!"
"Pavilion Master, be careful!"
When Wu Ming and Li Lao heard this, they arched their hands at him, and turned around and left after saying a word. Ye Chen, on the other hand, looked at the two who had left and disappeared, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the mine, and in the blink of an eye, he plunged into the thick ghost fog.
"Are all these despicable ghost slaves dead?"
As soon as Ye Chen came to the vicinity of the cave entrance, he heard such a scolding sentence, and immediately knew that it was the one who collected the ore. His originally calm face suddenly changed, and then a flattering smile appeared.
"Adult, adult, little one is here!"
Ye Chen trotted over for a while, and shouted out such a sentence flatteringly, his tone was flattering, and he seemed to have changed a person. When he shouted like this, a ghost warrior at the entrance of the cave who was counting was slightly stunned, and then there was a burst of enjoyment.
"Despicable thing, why did you come?"
This ghost warrior was dressed in pitch-black ghost armor, his face was arrogant, and his face was upturned to the sky. And Ye Chen, who was trotting all the way, bowed his head as soon as he arrived, and he slapped his ass again and again.
"My lord, you are finally here, the little one looks forward to your arrival every day, the little one's admiration for you is like a surging ghost, your greatness is like a high blood moon, my heart for you is like the purple sun in the void, I am to you-"
Ye Chen slapped his ass like this, and even felt sick to himself when he was talking, but he forced himself to continue. Because the ghost warrior in front of him was enjoying and intoxicated, he seemed to be quite useful to Ye Chen's words.
"Little ghost, you're very good at talking, and Ben Du is very pleased!" said the ghost man with a burst of appreciation.
He looked happy and asked, "Little ghost, why are you the only one who comes out, and the other lowly ghost slaves?"
"Adult, the little one is the thinnest one here, he is often bullied, and now he is threatened by them to move all these things out, the little one's life is miserable!" Ye Chen cried and complained with a sad face.
"How can it be!"
When the ghost man heard this, he shouted angrily, and said, "Tell me, what's the matter, I'm going to pick them all up and drag them outside to be military slavesβ"
As he spoke, he suddenly woke up, immediately shut up, glanced at Ye Chen, and found that he was feeling sorry for himself, and his face finally breathed a sigh of relief. And at this moment, Ye Chen was cold in his heart, as soon as he heard that military slave, he guessed what kind of position it was, that was a kind of cannon fodder.
"Adult, the little one's life is hard, you see, the little one has dug a basket of stones this month, just want to wait for the arrival of the adult, beg the adult to accept the small one, and the little one is willing to go to the soup and fight again!"
Ye Chen cried for a while, and he walked to a basket and lay on it, the one who cried was heartbreaking, the crying was earth-shattering, and the people who heard it were moved. And the ghost warrior's expression was moved for a while, as if he was coveting the basket of ore, but his face was hesitant and struggling.
"There's a play!"
Ye Chen saw that there was a scene in the dark, and then he cried loudly and said, "My lord, the little one is willing to dig up all kinds of stones for you every month, as long as you take the small one out of here, the little one can do anything for you!"
"Thisβ"
The ghost man hesitated slightly, very moved, and finally sighed helplessly, and said: "Little ghost, your mind is known to the governor, but you don't know, this is not under the jurisdiction of my general, but by the seventh ghost general, I am just here on order today, but you can rest assured, I will definitely keep you safe!"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Ye Chen thanked him again and again, and then, his face was crying and his expression was depressed, and he murmured: "My lord, the little one may not be able to see you next time, the fire ghost gang suddenly appeared last time, and he will kill the one as soon as he comes, and the little one doesn't know if he will come tomorrow, and he may not survive tonight." β
The ghost man's face turned angry, and he shouted, "How can this really be true, what kind of fire ghost gang, just a bunch of garbage, they just came to kill you?"
"More than that!"
Ye Chen cried darkly, and wailed: "My lord, when they came, they not only killed them, but also snatched half of the ore, saying that they wanted to pay protection money, and the small ones were very weak, so they could only watch." β
"What?"
The ghost warrior was really surprised this time, and then he was furious, and shouted: "What a bastard, you dare to collect ore without permission, it seems that their Fire Ghost Gang doesn't want to live anymore." β
"Boy, you are very good, Ben Du is very optimistic about you!"
This ghost warrior looked very appreciative, and then, under Ye Chen's surprised gaze, he stretched out his right hand. Suddenly, with a brush, the piles of ore on the ground disappeared, except for empty baskets.
"Gone?"
Ye Chen's expression was shocked, his heart was like a river overturning, he was shocked by this method in front of him. Then, there was an infinite impulse in my heart to kill this ghost warrior and take away the thing that could hide things. But in the end, I gave up, because the current strength is still too weak, and everything here is unknown.
"Boy, keep working hard, Bendu is very optimistic about you, as for that fire ghost gang, you don't have to worry, dare to come and snatch the general's things, I really don't know whether to live or die!" said the ghost pawn with a cold face, and walked away with his head held high as he spoke.
After the ghost man disappeared, Ye Chen stood here silent for a long time, his expression solemn. After a long time, he returned all the way back with a heavy heart, and his brows furrowed deeply. He recalled the sporadic words of that ghost warrior all the way, and the more he thought about it, the more serious his expression became, and his heart was extremely heavy.
"Military slaves, generals, seventh ghost generals?"
Ye Chen lowered his head and thought all the way, and through the sporadic words spoken by that ghost soldier, he guessed that there was still a kind of slave identity here, that is, the so-called military slave. They are mining slaves at the moment, and there are groups of military slaves outside, which can be seen from the fact that the ghost general outside seems to be very powerful.
"The Seventh Ghost General?"
Ye Chen thought as he walked, he even heard such a title from the ghost warrior, it was obvious that there were many ghost generals here, maybe more than seven, maybe just seven. However, just these seven ghost generals are not something that their group of mine slaves can deal with, and besides, the countless powerful ghost pawns, ghost soldiers, ghost people, etc. under the ghost generals are chilling when they think about it.
"The road ahead is worrying!"
Ye Chen sighed as he walked, he could think of a lot, but they were all insurmountable peaks. There was so much horror in this sporadic piece of information, which made him feel suffocated.
"Pavilion Master!"
"What's wrong?"
At this time, as soon as Wu Ming and the others saw Ye Chen coming, they immediately came up and asked such a sentence. Ye Chen, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, shaking his head at everyone, and his tightly knit brows made Wu Ming and the others feel distracted, knowing that things had changed.
"Let's go back and talk about it later!"
Ye Chen said this softly, turned around and took the lead towards the deepest part of the mine, while Wu Ming and the others behind him glanced at each other and followed one after another. The crowd passed through one corner after another, burrowed into one black mist after another, and finally entered a spacious space.
"Go and call Yi Shui back, I have something very important to tell you!"
As soon as he returned here, Ye Chen said this behind him, and then stood motionless, not locked, as if thinking about something big.
