Enlightenment Stone

Previous Chapter

You are pushed into a small room by the guards, a very simple house, but not a place for laborers to live, but a place to store labor tools and clothing.

You open the cabinet where the guards told you where the clothes were, and suddenly, several rats crawled out of the cabinet, and you were so surprised that you quickly shook your hand and threw out all the clothes in the cabinet.

"What are you doing here?" the guards heard the movement and went into the house to investigate.

"There are rats. ”

"Mouse, that's a delicacy you can't come by. ”

"Delicious?"

"You'll find out later. ”

You wonder what the guards say, but the guards still look like you'll know.

"Hurry up and pick out your clothes, don't delay Uncle Ben's time. With that, he walked straight out.

You look at the clothes with many patches on your body and the clothes of the laborers on the ground thoughtfully, then pick up the clothes from the ground that fit your thin body, fold your clothes after changing, look at the furnishings in the room, and after a while, walk to a cabinet that looks stronger than the others, and open the drawer to put your clothes inside.

Just as you opened the cupboard, you stepped on a rock and accidentally slipped and fell, and your elbow hit the ground, with a clattering sound, you knew that your hand was injured, although it hurt, but you still endured, after all, you have attracted the guards, and you have no chance to put your clothes.

When you put your clothes away, you look at the dirty stone on the ground, and you pick it up, "It's all your fault, I fell half to death." "Just as you were about to throw it, the guards came in.

"What are you doing?" said the guard, who thought you were going to throw a stone at him, angrily.

"I didn't want to do anything. You heard the guard's tone and put the stone in your pocket.

"Let's go, don't delay the time, the uncle is still ready to go to Lehehehe later. The guard said as he kicked you in the ass.

"Snort. "You were dissatisfied, but you knew that offending him would not end well, so you followed him to the miner's resting place.

The so-called resting place is a three-legged tent made of two rags and a few wooden sticks.

"Hey, you guys, this kid is new here, take good care of him. The guard said haughtily, then turned away

There are three men in front of you, one of whom looks very old and is expected to be fifty or sixty years old, and the other two, one in his youth, and the other one about your age.

"Well, newcomer, did you bring anything to eat?" asked the young man.

"Food? ”

"Really? Forget it. ”

"Why did you come to the mines?" the teenager asked you, curiously.

"I, how can I say it, I guess I was wronged by you. ”

"Well, it seems that we are really in the same way. The old man said, "I think I was wronged by my parents' enemies at the same age as you, and now it's been almost forty years!"

"Forty years?!! can't you go out here?"

"Get out, silly boy, you can't get out here. The young man on the side patted you on the shoulder and said.

"Can't get out?!! how can there be so many people here, isn't there anyone resisting?"

"Resist? You're joking again, the guards don't look that powerful, but they have weapons, and more importantly, they have a three-rank Taoist who cultivates martial arts!"

"Daoist?" although you often heard this word when you were studying in the academy, you didn't know much about it.

"Look at you, you don't know what a Taoist is, Daoist, it is to stimulate the Dao in the heart and the body through the Enlightenment Stone, but not everyone can bear this power with their physical bodies, not to mention that the Enlightenment Stone is impossible for us poor people to get. ”

'The Enlightenment Stone, to protect the people around me, I must get it. Thinking of this, your fists clench unconsciously.
