Chapter 227: It Could Be a Big Pit
"Bang ......" Not long after the pigtail escaped into the ground, a dull sound came from the ground, followed by a figure flying out of the soil like a monkey, and a mouthful of blood was already spurted out of the air.
This person was the pigtail who had entered the underground to investigate, but his current appearance was quite embarrassing, not only his face was pale, but it seemed that the injuries he had just suffered were not light, and the clothes on his body were also tattered, and there were several bloody wounds on his chest and back.
"What's going on?" Yuan Ming rushed forward to catch the falling pigtails, and then asked with concern, and at the same time did not forget to urge Chen Feng to come over and take a look at his injuries.
Seeing that he cared so much about the pigtails, Chen Feng couldn't help but secretly say: No wonder he was able to envelop the pigtails.
"It's just a little bit of a shock injury, it's not a big deal. Chen Feng said after checking the pigtails.
"What's next?" Yuan Ming asked about the matter.
"Chen Shao is right, there is indeed a formation two or three hundred meters below, and the qi of the leylines is condensed together, protecting the underneath, and it is impossible to pass it easily, I was attacked after just a little try, and I was bounced out before I had time to resist. Pigtails sighed dejectedly.
When Fang just went down, Xiao Braid was still a little unimpressed by Chen Feng's reminder, otherwise he wouldn't have tried to break through into the formation. Now that he has suffered a loss, he realizes how powerful the formation below is, and how weak his strength is in comparison.
"Crazy, what do you say we should do?" Yuan Ming frowned, and after walking back and forth around the neighborhood twice, he looked at Chen Feng, wanting to ask him what he thought.
In terms of strength, Chen Feng is naturally the strongest among the people present, and Chen Feng is also a great expert in understanding the way of formation. Coupled with the deep friendship between the two, Yuan Ming naturally attaches great importance to Chen Feng's opinion.
"If you want to be safe, then of course you have to give up here, at most we will stay here for a day or two, and then leave this place when help comes, and we will no longer be in the edge. But I guess you're not going to agree to that. Chen Feng looked at Yuan Ming and said.
"That's true. In order to get here, my family really took a lot of effort and paid a lot of price, both my father and I have high hopes for this place, and want to use it as a foothold after we come, if we just give up, then we ......" Yuan Ming glanced at Chen Feng, with anxiety in his eyes.
Chen Feng knew what he meant, this vein was indeed very important to the newcomer Yuan family, he was not only the foundation of his life, but also the first cornerstone of the Yuan family's future development and growth, and it was also a bargaining chip for negotiations with various methods in the future.
This is like some oil-producing countries, which are not strong in their own right, but they can rely on the oil in their hands to be able to crisscross between various major countries, and to meet the source left and right.
The Yuan family obviously planned to do this at the beginning, and the leyline copper essence produced in the ore vein was their bargaining chip, but if it was gone, although it would not be completely destroyed, but the Yuan family would not rise strongly, even if they wanted to gain a foothold here, it would not be easy.
"If you are reluctant to give up, then you can only continue to explore and excavate, but the danger will increase greatly, and future casualties will inevitably be inevitable, so you must be mentally prepared for this. Chen Feng looked at Yuan Ming and said.
"Well, how can there be immortals in mining, and besides, it's not from our country that is dead, it doesn't matter, at most I'll give some compensation at that time. Yuan Ming didn't care about the authentic way.
"Black, what a black-hearted mine owner. Chen Feng said with a smile.
"You can't blame me, who told these polar bears to occupy the place that belonged to us, let them pay off their debts now. Yuan Ming said murderously.
"Actually, it's not as dangerous as you think, at least until you touch the formation below, it shouldn't be a big problem. Chen Feng comforted.
"I'll rub it, what did you say before, I was so scared that I was about to have a heart attack. Yuan Ming said unhappily.
"Don't blame me for not reminding you, this place is indeed very likely to be a big pit, although I can't take a closer look at what the formation below is for, but think about it, a thousand or two thousand years ago, in such a remote and desolate place, how much manpower and material resources would be required to build such a vast and huge formation?
Chen Feng was afraid that Yuan Ming would take his words as a deaf ear, so he persuaded him again.
"But we can't just watch it here all the time, do you have any ideas?" Yuan Ming rubbed his temples and said with a headache.
"Let's go over and settle down first, and then I will go to the mine with Liu Ye to take a closer look, whether it is good or bad, seeing is believing, and it is not too late to think of countermeasures when the time comes. Chen Feng thought for a while.
"Alright, that's it. Yuan Ming waved his hand at the guards scattered around him, signaling everyone to set off again.
"Xiao Fengfeng, the aura of heaven and earth and the qi of the leylines here are quite strange, I'm afraid it's not a good place, we two have to be careful. Liu Ye waved the wicker and whipped it on the ground a few times, reminding Chen Fengdao in a low voice.
"Well, if there is really something going on, let's take Jiu Ye and Wang Siyan away. Chen Feng said.
"Yo, do you have any thoughts about Wang Siyan, otherwise why do you care about her so much?" Liu Ye narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Fengdao with a smile.
"I'm just going to it, what's going on in your head, can you be serious? Don't talk nonsense all the time. Chen Feng stretched out his finger and flicked it on her forehead, then turned to leave.
"This is what I said, annoyed and angry, and want to kill people? Hmph, tell you, no way. Liu Ye muttered in a low voice, looking very fierce, but the smile on his face was extremely bright.
What he said just now was naturally a joke, and Chen Feng's reaction also made him very satisfied.
In order to mine, the Yuan family has made quite sufficient preparations, not only built rows of wooden houses at the foot of the mountain, but also prepared a large number of materials, even if the conditions are simple, but food and accommodation are not a problem at all.
Chen Feng didn't care about these at first, and after everyone settled down, he proposed to Yuan Ming that he wanted to go up the mountain to have a look.
Yuan Ming naturally had no opinion, called on the pigtails to accompany him, and went up the mountain with Chen Feng.
Liu Ye and Wang Siyan naturally followed, but Wang Siyan's two bodyguards were left in the camp at the bottom of the mountain.
The cave was not far from the foot of the mountain, so it was quite easy to go up, and the entrance was five or six meters wide, and the edges were uneven, and it looked like it had been bombed.
"You did this?" asked Chen Feng.
"No, that's what it looks like, I guess someone from the polar bear side has discovered it before, but it hasn't been developed, so it's cheaper for my house. Yuan Ming said.
Chen Feng didn't speak, and walked into the cave.
The cavern was deep, but the air was not foul, and from time to time there were sounds of conversation and the roar of machinery, and it was clear that there were already workers at work inside.
Seeing Yuan Ming's arrival, the overseer sent by the Yuan family hurriedly came over as a guide, introducing the situation everywhere while walking in the cave.
Chen Feng just watched silently, didn't say anything and didn't ask.
The space in this cave is not small, and it is deep and tortuous, because the Yuan family has just taken over not long ago, and many places have not had time to explore, but at present, the place where they dig is quite safe.
"Go over there and have a look. Standing at a fork in the road, Chen Feng pointed to a road on the left.
"We haven't probed over there, and it could be dangerous. The overseer said busily.
"Got it, you go get busy, we'll just go around by ourselves. Yuan Ming nodded and waved his hand to send him away.
Chen Feng beckoned to Liu Ye and walked forward along the road on the left. Yuan Ming and Wang Siyan glanced at each other, and then followed.
The further you go, the lower the terrain becomes, and the slope gets steeper and steeper, and there is a constant flow of air coming up from the cave, but it is not cold and damp, but hot and dry, with a pungent smell of sulfur.
After walking for nearly 1,000 meters, the road suddenly became extremely steep, especially after turning a sharp turn in front of it, it was completely gone, and what appeared in front of everyone was a large hole with a diameter of thirty or forty meters.
The cave is constantly rising and hot, and looking down through the hole, you can see not only the bubbling magma, but also the blazing flames.
"Hey, I'm going to ......" At first sight, Yuan Ming couldn't help but exclaim, and he stumbled under his feet, almost falling headlong.
Thanks to Chen Feng's quick eyes and pulling him back, there was no danger, otherwise, with this cave mouth at least four or five hundred meters from the bottom, if Yuan Ming fell down, even if he was not scalded to death by the magma below, he would definitely be treated as meat sauce.
"Crazy, this can't be an active volcano, right?" Yuan Ming steadied himself and glanced down again.
"Not necessarily, this is the exposed leyline, and the flame below is the leyline red flame. If it weren't for its repeated burning, where would there be the leyline copper essence here. Chen Feng stood at the edge of the cave entrance, carefully observing the scene below.
"Crazy, you don't want to go down, do you?" Yuan Ming saw it, and said a little worriedly.
"Well, I have this intention, to tell you the truth, I originally promised to come and have a look, just to use the leyline Chiyan here to refine the flying sword, but I didn't expect that the situation here was more complicated than I imagined, of course, I had to go down and find out. Chen Feng nodded.
"Don't you want to play so big? There's fire and magma down there, if something happens, I'll ......" Yuan Ming said worriedly.
"Don't worry, with my strength, even if I really fall into it, I won't die immediately. Chen Feng said confidently.
"What about us?" asked Wang Siyan.
"You don't have to come down. Chen Feng waved to Ula as he spoke, and jumped down.
Seeing this, Wang Siyan and Yuan Ming couldn't help but sweat for him.
With Chen Feng's current strength, he is far from being able to achieve volley void, but there is no problem in controlling the speed of the flying. At this time, it flew in the air like a feather, and after falling less than twenty or thirty meters, it was caught by Ulla, who flew over.
