Chapter 149: A Chance Encounter with an Old Man
"Don't get close to you Li Ye!" The thin man opened his mouth and said, but as soon as he finished speaking, he still looked at Li Jie, whose face was covered with blood, suspiciously, and then he was also stunned, and said with a little uncertainty:
"You've got a bloody face, are you?"
"I remember, you're a Li monkey!" After all, Li Jie has washed the meridians five times before and after, and this innate body has gradually formed, and now although he can't move his true qi, his recovery speed is still very slow, so although Li Jie was hit hard, he recognized a person and remembered some things, Li Jie could still do it.
"You're the one on that day?" When the thin man saw Li Jie open his mouth and shouted out his name, he immediately retreated in fright, stared at Li Jie with a pair of small eyes, and looked at Li Jie with great vigilance:
"Ah~ You're the one from Jingguan, no! How did you get here? ”
"You're not in Jingguan, why did you get here?" Li Jie didn't answer Li Monkey's words, but asked about Li Monkey.
"Not because of you!" Li Monkey suddenly remembered Li Jie's methods, and immediately turned bitter, and wailed in his heart, but he didn't dare to run, so he had to reply:
"On that day, we stole the treasure knife of the busy Qu Chang to you, and as soon as you left, the busy Qu Chang led someone to catch up, and two more of my Wu robes died, leaving me and Xianji."
"Oh! And then you were sent here? Li Jie took Li Monkey's words, heard that the soldier had died again, and remembered that they had stolen the knife to himself that day and they used it to exchange their lives, so his face did not change, but he pointed to the ground and said:
"Don't just stand, sit down and talk slowly, I don't know anything about this place!"
"Alas, I'm going to be killed by you!" Li Monkey had seen Li Jie's methods, and he didn't dare to leave, so he had to mutter:
"Lao Tzu finally saved up the Sanfang Refined Iron Mine, and wanted to change it for a slave, but he didn't expect to change it to a bad star!"
"What are you muttering about?" Li Jie sat down first, and saw Li Monkey grinding and rubbing, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, because Li Jie's face was full of blood, the two of them together actually looked a little fierce, and immediately scared Li Monkey to the ground.
"Didn't say anything, didn't say anything!" Li Monkey was originally a clever person, otherwise he would not have lived long in this troubled world, so seeing that the person he spent a lot of money in exchange for had become a bad star, he didn't dare to leave, so he had to cooperate with Li Jie as much as possible.
Li Monkey knew that although the patrol team could call the shots for him, he had seen Li Jie's methods, and he was not at all sure that he would be able to escape from Li Jie before finding the patrol team, not to mention that even if the patrol team came, whether he could beat Li Jie was another matter.
"Li Monkey, don't worry, as long as you wait for Li to go out, you will definitely be benefited!" Li Jie saw that Li Monkey was trembling, so his tone softened, and comforted Li Monkey softly:
"Do you remember the pill that Li gave you, did it work?"
"Ahem!" Li Monkey was mentioned by Li Jie, remembered what he asked Li Jie that day, and then patted his head, seemed to remember, and hurriedly replied:
"Don't say it, I was arrested as soon as you left that day, and you can drink the tangerine peel yin and yang water."
"It's okay if you don't drink it, it's just a little thirsty in your mouth!" Li Jie thought about the introduction of the Tiger Bone Interrupted Pill in Taiping Surgery, smiled and said:
"I only ask you, did you add half a bull's strength?"
"You say that, it works!" Li Monkey thought about it and said:
"I can become a first-class miner, if you want to say it, it's really thanks to your pill!"
"I'm right!" Li Jie smiled, turned his words around and said:
"As long as you cooperate with me here, Li will definitely give you great benefits after he goes out."
"I said Shaoxia, this is different from Jingguan!" Seeing that Li Jielian said that he would give himself benefits after going out twice, Li Monkey's face was bitter, and he said with a little sadness:
"If you're in the outer cave, you still have a chance to go out, but you're not allowed to enter or get out of this inner cave?"
"Are you allowed to enter or not to go out?" Li Jie frowned, and hurriedly asked:
"What do you mean by that?"
"Shhhh Be quiet, I'll tell you, don't be scared! Li Monkey moved his body towards Li Jie, covered it with his hand, and whispered into Li Jie's ear:
"When I was peeing that day, I heard the steward say that this is an immortal mine, you must be careful."
"The Immortal's Mine?" Li Jie was a little unaccustomed to being spoken close to his ear by Li Monkey, and said while reaching out to push Li Monkey away:
"I know, don't get close, I'm not used to it!"
"You know?" Li Monkey was startled, and looked at Li Jie's face changed, only to see him mutter:
"Aren't you human?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Li Jie looked at Li Monkey with a little dissatisfaction, and saw that Li Monkey looked depressed, so he pushed Li Monkey with his hand and said:
"What's going on here, you say?"
"Ahh Li Monkey suddenly came to his senses, looking at Li Jie's eyes were different, he suddenly remembered that day in Jingguan Li Jie pointed with his hand, and their Wu Chang caught fire and burned to death, when even pointed at Li Jie with his finger, lowered his voice, and said in horror:
"You're also an immortal, oh my God, I bought an immortal as a slave!"
"Slave, slave, you!" Li Jie saw that Li Monkey couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, so a Ding bow knocked on Li Monkey's head, knocking Li Monkey into a spirit.
"And what shall I call you?" Li Monkey originally wanted to be called Shaoxia, but thinking that Li Jie was an immortal again, Li Monkey tilted his head while touching his head and asked.
"My surname is Li Mingjie, you can call me Li Jie!" Li Jie saw that Li Monkey finally came back to his senses, and replied casually:
"Tell me what this inner cave does?"
"Okay, I'll call you Jieye!" Seeing that Li Jie wanted him to call him by his name, Li Monkey glanced at Li Jie in surprise, but he didn't dare to call him that anyway, he immediately raised his head and said to Li Jie:
"This is Raven Mountain, I heard that the poisonous gas here used to be confused, deserted, until one day it was found that there was a refined iron ore buried under this Raven Mountain, and there was this inner hole and outer hole."
Li Monkey paused slightly, and then continued:
"I also listened to the steward, this outer cave is mainly responsible for refining refined iron ore, and the inner cave is mainly responsible for digging."
"I don't know the rules of the outer cave, but in the inner cave, everyone must hand over the refined iron ore selected by one party every month, otherwise there will be no food and water."
"How much is one side?" Li Jie was surprised and interrupted Li Monkey to ask.
"That's probably all there is to one side!" Li Monkey pointed to several wooden boxes stacked against the cave wall.
"A square box is a party."
"Oh, that's one side." Li Jie glanced at it casually, only felt that the wooden box was not big, so he asked;
"So a little bit big, only one box a month?"
"Master Jie!" Li Monkey saw that Li Jie pointed to the box on the ground indifferently, and even felt that the box was too small, so he said to Li Jie with a bitter face:
"This box is small, but the problem is that the refined iron ore is even smaller!"
"Isn't the refined iron ore a big piece?" Li Jie remembered that he had seen pictures of the mine before he came to Han, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Look, this is iron concentrate!" Li Monkey took out a small cloth bag from his arms, opened it carefully, and showed it to Li Jie with a wide opening.
"This is iron concentrate?" Li Jie looked into the bag, the fire on the cave wall was dim, Li Jie felt that he couldn't see clearly, so he reached in and grabbed a small handful, spread it out and put it on the palm of his hand to look at it himself.
