Chapter 115: Beasts
Thanks to the leaf seeds for the reward, present a chapter!
Unlike Baicao Garden, Changsheng Cave is really a cave.
The Lingshi Mine is in the deepest part of the mine, and the quarrying is carried out by some young and strong laborers recruited from Sanxiao City.
The mine cave is also one of the most oily places, because it is impossible to accurately calculate the number of spirit stones, and no one cares about a small amount of greedy ink.
The terrain of Changsheng Cave is dangerous, not far from the cave is a cliff, and it is also a place to dump slag.
The miners recruited in the cave work day and night, and there is a full set of production lines, from the excavation of spiritual stones to the classification to the statistical entry, each step is responsible for each step.
At the end of each month, the Xiuwei will personally escort them to the Xiuwei Mansion, and then the Xiuwei Mansion will distribute the share of the Xiuwei.
Xie Tian was most annoyed by this kind of knocking on the pen, staring at Zhou Dalu with bad intentions and smiling.
Zhou Dalu secretly scolded Xie Tian, how can there be such a pit brother-in-law, I have to be much more free to let Sister Yun prepare some bamboo chips and invite him to eat meat!
The name of the steward of the Changsheng Cave is Xu Qing, a monk with almost seven-rank strength, nearly thirty years old, and a loyal appearance.
Xu Qing welcomed Xie Tian into the cave, ordered someone to serve tea, and moved this month's account book out and handed it over to Xie Tian.
"My lord, this is the mining situation of all the spirit stones this month, please take a look. ”
Xie Tian was born with a phobia of the account book, so he threw it directly to Zhou Dalu and said to Xu Qing: "Take me to the cave." ”
When the attendants on duty saw Xie Tian, they saluted together.
"My subordinates have seen adults!"
Xie Tian nodded in return, and when he was far away, the attendants gathered together to discuss.
"I became a repairer at such a young age, ...... amazing"
"I know why our Xu Tou is so diligent, and they directly killed an eight-rank close attendant in Baicao Garden......"
"Such a dick, looking at his appearance as a five-grade person, will it be a false rumor......
As the cave deepened, there was a wider space in front of it, and at intervals on the cave wall, there would be a lamp powered by spirit stones, illuminating the cave as bright as day.
Xu Qing led the way in front and tirelessly told the big and small things that happened in the Changsheng Cave.
Xie Tian smiled and said nothing, as if he was listening very seriously.
Dangdangdang!
Slowly, you can hear the crisp tapping sound in your ears, and thank God you know, it's getting closer to the vein.
After turning a corner, the foreground seemed to change, hundreds of strong men were shirtless, holding hammers and chisels, and knocking on the stone wall.
Behind him was a large box of white-flour steamed buns and tea, and two other fairly handsome women were using the brush in their hands to clean up the spirit stones that had been mined.
Xu Qing clapped his hands and shouted, "Lord Xiuwei Xie has come to see you." ”
The miners stopped what they were doing and saluted to thank the heavens.
"I've seen Lord Xiuwei......"
Xie Tian nodded and said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard, today's salary has doubled, which is my meeting gift." ”
"Thank you, sir......"
The shouts in the mine shook the sky, and the miners smiled and worked very hard.
There was a small episode in the mine, Xie Tian encountered a landslide during the inspection, Xie Tian was nothing, but he frightened Xu Qing, who accompanied him.
"Accident, my lord, there is a landslide in the mine, fortunately it didn't hurt you, otherwise the sin of your subordinates would be great!"
Xie Tian looked at Xu Qing with a smile and said, "I hope it's really an accident." ”
Xu Qing's face turned pale with fright: "Lord Mingjian!"
Out of the mine, Zhou Dalu had already finished turning over the account book, and before he could speak, Xie Tian said first: "It's been a tiring day, let's eat first!"
Xu Qing had already ordered someone to prepare wine and food, and a table full of food and wine was probably because of the abundant aura, and the game here tasted particularly fragrant.
Zhou Dalu said with a big tongue: "Light, drinking like this, wine, it's boring, it's better to get some gadgets to help the fun!"
Xu Qing knew what to do from Zhou Dalu's obscene expression, and was about to start arranging, but Xie Tian said: "Those two girls in the mine are good, I like ......"
As soon as he heard that Xie Tian fell in love with the two female workers, Xu Qing couldn't cry or laugh, and he also understood the truth that turnip greens have their own love, and it is not surprising that the miners are strong and the adults are good.
Soon, the two female workers in the mine were brought in, and it was obvious that they had specially washed up, but their eyes were slightly red.
Xie Tian saw his favorite dish, and he seemed a little anxious, and drove Xu Qing out with a push. Xu Qing stood at the door, secretly pushed the door, and found that it had been bolted from the inside, two figures on the window opened their teeth and claws, and the timid voice of the female worker came from inside.
"Don't ...... Don't ......"
Xu Qing took a sip: "Phew, brute!", turned to leave, and his momentum also changed drastically the moment he turned around, no longer so cautious and trembling like walking on thin ice, but calm and domineering.
Closing the door, Xie Tian and Zhou Dalu tacitly agreed, and the two female workers were already frightened, so they shouted directly, making sure that Xu Qing had gone away, and then comforted the two female workers.
The two female workers made sure that the two in front of them were not bad people, so they calmed down, and Xie Tian asked, "Is there anything special happening in the mine these days?"
A female worker named Ah Yan thought for a while and said, "There is ......."
......
In the early morning of the next day, Xie Tian and Zhou Dalu opened the door in good spirits, and Xu Qing, who was waiting outside the door, saw two female workers wearing clothes through the crack in the door.
Xie Tian said to Xu Qing with great satisfaction: "I am very satisfied, the two of them will not go to work today, and their salaries will be doubled." ”
Xu Qing said with some embarrassment: "My lord, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, the work of the mine is planned every day......
Xie Tian waved his hand to interrupt Xu Qing's words: "I believe you understand the process of a girl becoming a woman, and the interest was very high last night, do you think she can still do it?"
Xu Qing didn't dare to be verbose any longer, so he ordered someone to prepare breakfast, and after the meal, Xie Tian called Xu Qing with Zhou Dalu with the account book.
Before he could speak, Xu Qing knelt on the ground with a thud.
"My lord, my subordinates are guilty!"
Xie Tian snorted coldly: "Count you smart, say it!"
Xu Qing wiped the sweat on his face and said, "Our immortal cave has a thief and lost some spirit stones!"
Xie Tian and Zhou Dalu looked at each other, obviously feeling a little surprised, Xie Tian asked quietly, "What's the matter?"
The spirit stone mined in the Changsheng Cave has been registered in the cave, and then handed over to Xu Qing in person, Xu Qing was also put into the warehouse for the first time, but every day during routine inspections, it will be found that a piece is inexplicably missing.
Originally, it was not a big deal to lose one or two lower-grade spirit stones, but it couldn't stand for a long time, and now it has been a deficit of nearly a hundred.
The most bizarre thing is that the door locks in the warehouse are all intact, and the key has always been in Xu Qing's hands.
Xie Tian and Zhou Dalu were interested, and Xu Qing took them to the warehouse, and after a field investigation, they found nothing.
This is interesting, either this seemingly loyal and honest Xu Qing guarded himself and stole himself, and then staged a scene of thieves shouting to catch thieves, or the Changsheng Cave is really haunted.
Xie Tian is biased towards both two possibilities, guarding the mine is a fat shortage, smart people know the truth of thin water and long flow, and will not do this kind of thing of exhausting and fishing, because once the matter is revealed, it is difficult to protect life, what is the point of the spirit stone coming.
Zhou Dalu asked, "You mean we're going to catch ghosts?"
Thank God: "Smart!"
During the day, he continued to wander around the Changsheng Cave and enjoyed the scenery of Nanshan, and at night, Xie Tian gathered all the monks of the Changsheng Cave and said that he would have a dinner party to treat everyone.
Changsheng Cave and Xie Tian Zhou Dalu, a total of twelve people, surrounded a full table.
Because of the geographical advantages, there is no shortage of birds and beasts on the table, and the chef is also very powerful, making the color and flavor are good, Xie Tian picked up the wine glass and said: "Everyone has worked hard, I would like to give you a glass!"
Xu Qing hurriedly took the lead in holding the cup and said: "The responsibility is not to talk about hard work, but the daily rush of adults is really hard, and this cup should be honored by adults."
Xu Qing drank it all, and everyone also raised their glasses and thanked God in return.
Everyone saw that Lord Xiuwei was easy-going, and there was no shelf, and the wine table was lively.
After three rounds of drinking, Xie Tian made an excuse and went directly to the warehouse, and Zhou Dalu paid attention to the wine table.
Zhou Dalu used all his strength to pour all ten people in the Changsheng Cave on the table and fell asleep, including Xu Qing. Zhou Dalu didn't sleep all night, and the next day, with two dark circles under his eyes, he opened the door of the warehouse with Xie Tian and Xu Qing.
The spirit stone in the box is still missing!
Xie Tian's eyes widened, this is the hell, he has been squatting at the door of the warehouse all night, and he has personally checked it before, if it is really a thief, it can only be himself!
Zhou Dalu was full of excitement: "It's really haunted!"
Xie Tian slapped him: "If it's really a ghost, it's easy to do, I'm afraid that someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost!"
In the next few days, Zhou Dalu stayed in the warehouse inch by inch, but he saw the spirit stone being stolen and stomped his feet angrily.
Xie Tian took another turn around the Immortal Cave, hoping to find clues. The mining workers and the attendants of the Changsheng Cave have been ruled out of the possibility of committing crimes, and the only possibility is that of foreign thieves.
But how did this thief manage to enter and exit the warehouse without leaving the slightest trace? The warehouse was also carefully inspected, and not even a rat hole was found.
Typical backroom crime.
Xie Tian walked aimlessly on the forest path when an unknown creature scurried past his feet, startling him.
His eyes suddenly lit up, yes, why didn't I think of that?
Xie Tian hurriedly returned to the Changsheng Cave, summoned Zhou Dalu and Xu Qing, and Xu Qing's process about the spirit stone was the same.
Although Xu Qing didn't understand what was going on, Lord Xiuwei had an order, and he couldn't refute it. It's just that early the next morning, he was blocked at the door by Xie Tian and Zhou Dalu.
"My lord, why is this, do you still suspect that your subordinates stole the spirit stone?"
Xie Tian said with a smile: "Chief Xu misunderstood, aren't I catching a thief, from now on, the door of the warehouse is not allowed to be opened, and the key will be handed over to me for safekeeping!"
Xu Qingtie blushed, handed over the key, Xie Tian threw the key to Zhou Dalu, and then said to Xu Qing: "Prepare the fishing net, there is a lake on the other side of Nanshan, I want to go fishing!"
