Chapter 681: I'm so vain
In addition to the Ningxu Mine, Tang Luo and the others already knew the location of the rest of the mines and mines.
The legend hides the "Nine Shadows" of demons, Si Zhong is not clear, he bluntly said that this is just a legend.
It's impossible to determine if such a place really exists.
Tang Luo's question about the Nine Shadows made Si Zhong understand that it was not the combination of demons and qi refiners, and he wanted to recreate the ancient war.
It's just a huddle of a few poor "people" for warmth.
Kill the divine envoy in order to have a name to enter the Nine Shadows?
Si Zhong didn't know about it, and he couldn't help further, all he could do was tell Tang Luo and them everything he had to say.
I hope that my family and life-saver can live a little longer together.
Si Chong didn't have any hatred for Tang Luo and them, the matter was indeed caused by these people, but the choice was made by Si Chong himself.
He's not an ignorant man.
At the same time, Si Zhong also mentioned that the gods did not hunt down the Qi Refiners like the demons, but they also had an attitude of disgust.
If you meet it, you won't be soft.
As a result, the number of Qi Refiners is very small, and they are rarely visible to people.
If you can't find the Nine Shades and can't find the Qi Refiner, you can leave Kaiyang and the vassal states and go to the land of poor mountains and bad waters for the uncivilized.
The gods were not very interested in those places.
There are also rumors that the demons who have not gone to the Nine Shadows have hid in those poor mountains and bad waters, and if they go there, they may find the demons.
can hide under the pursuit of the gods, and the demon's concealment skills must be extraordinary.
Si Zhong thought that Tang Luo and the others asked about the location of the mine and the mine in order to avoid the gods.
After all, it's the easiest place to intersect with the gods.
Where did you think that Tang Luo's target was those mines and mines.
The person in charge of the grasp point asked.
It would be even better if you could catch a god.
"Master, what kind of good thing do you say those crystalline ores will be?" Ao Yulie, who flew in the form of a dragon, said.
The gods obviously attach great importance to those crystalline ores.
"I don't know, it must be useful." Tang Luo said.
"It's just ......," Zhu Bajie next to him spoke, "If those ores are really of great use to the gods, why do they still let people mine them?" ”
The power of the gods is recorded and legendary, and it is a power that can move mountains and reclaim seas.
At that time, the Dali Dynasty felt strong and dared to rebel against the gods, and only three gods appeared, and the Dali Dynasty was directly destroyed - including those vassal states that raised flags.
At that time, there were still a large number of powerful Qi Refiners in the army of the Great Li Dynasty.
But it is not at all against the gods, like a mayfly shaking a tree.
After the fall of the Great Departure, the most glorious moment of the Qi Refiner has completely passed and has become history.
has become the tears of today's era, and the situation is slightly better than that of demons.
The gods are so powerful, those crystalline ores are really important to them, and they should not be pretended to be in the hands of others.
Do you disdain something like mining, or is there another reason?
Ao Yulie galloped high in the air, gradually approaching the Ningxu mine.
Ningxu Mine is located in a basin, occupying two-thirds of the basin area, and most of the crystalline ore is hidden underground, which belongs to the underground "mine".
If the crystalline ore is hidden in the belly of the mountain, it is a "mine".
The lowest point of the basin is nearly 50 meters away from the ground, and the highest point is also 20 meters away.
It can almost be said that there are vertical cliffs on all sides.
A stone staircase was built to lead to the outside, preventing the slaves from escaping as much as possible.
Above the basin, at intervals, there will be a watchtower to guard against the beasts that may sprang out.
It was also used to monitor and prevent slaves from escaping through cliffs, which was not uncommon.
In addition to the 150,000 or so slaves, there were thousands of guards in the Ningxu Mine.
It belongs to the private army of the mine manager, the Wen family.
The Wen family was in the Kaiyang Dynasty, and originally belonged to the scholar class, but now it is different, that is, Si Zhong is here, and the head of the family can also talk and laugh with him.
The Ningxu Mine is basically a barren place, and when you look down from the sky, you can see it at a glance.
Some parts of the ground are potholed, and more than twenty black cavities leading into the ground can be seen.
It is built to resemble the entrance to a subway station and an underpass.
In the basin, there are two different complexes, one of which is a place for slaves.
One is the residence of the Wen family's guards.
The Wen family built a large mansion outside the basin, near the stone steps leading to the outside world.
But not everyone in the Wen family lives here.
In the town, which is more than two hours away by carriage from the mine, there is the real mansion of the Wen family.
The house in the mine is always guarded by the Wen family.
The head of the family Wen Yu, as well as the eldest young master Wen Bo, who can now be on his own, and the second young master Wen Xue.
It's basically a three-person rotation, or two people together.
Tang Luo and the others were not in a hurry to go to the Wen family to ask about the situation, and planned to study the crystalline ore first.
Casting an illusion to cover his figure, Ao Yulie began to descend, and when he descended into the basin, he sank suddenly.
The dragon's body takes on a human form and falls uncontrollably.
smashed directly on the ground, fell into a lot of meat, and couldn't get up for a long time.
Even the illusion simply disappeared.
Zhu Bajie and Tang Luo adjusted their bodies in mid-air, not like Ao Yulie fell into.
It's just that Zhu Bajie also stumbled a few steps before he stood firm.
Only Tang Luo landed very steadily, and oh, there was also a howling dog that popped out its paws and grabbed the brocade robe so hard that it didn't fall to the ground.
"Master!"
Ao Yulie crawled on the ground for a long time before he staggered to his feet, "I feel so weak all of a sudden." ”
The hands and feet are sore, weak, the limbs are weak, and even the feet are a little fluttering.
Ao Yulie behaved like a patient with altitude sickness.
Zhu Bajie's face was also not good-looking, and the moment he entered the basin, there was a strange sense of powerlessness that enveloped him.
"Is it the effect of those crystalline ores?" Zhu Bajie looked to the side, where there were some small crystalline ores.
Crystalline ores range in size and size, the largest ones are about the size of an adult man's fist, and the smallest ones are not much larger than fingernails.
The whole is translucent, with no special color, a bit like a diamond.
It's just that it's not a regular shape at all.
Zhu Bajie walked over, and did not feel the increase in powerlessness, he picked up a piece of crystalline ore and pinched it hard.
The ore does not move.
It's not that the ore is extremely strong.
You must know that under normal circumstances, Zhu Bajie pinched like this, and the diamond could be pinched to pieces.
But now, he was powerless and couldn't pinch the ore at all.
It's a terrible feeling.
Ao Yulie walked over with fluttering steps, feeling like he was stepping on a pile of cotton.
After looking at it carefully for a while, he picked up a piece of ore and bit it twice, Ao Yulie said: "I'm sure, this thing is superhuman kryptonite for us monks." ”
Simple and clear metaphors, don't talk about Tang Luo, Zhu Bajie understands it.
This crystalline ore has the terrible effect of a weak monk.
Why does Ao Yulie weakly emphasize the monks?
The reason is very simple, if the crystalline ore has any special poison, even they are "poisoned" into this appearance, then ordinary people will have died a long time ago, let alone mining.
After entering the basin, not only was his body weak, but even the operation of the true yuan mana in his body was extremely jerky and difficult.
It felt like I was back in the same state as I was when I was seriously injured.
"The gods are actually collecting these things to deal with youkai?" Zhu Bajie frowned and analyzed, "No, did we guess wrong, the gods are not qi refiners, but ordinary people?" ”
Originally, everyone speculated that the gods should be a group of powerful monks (qi refiners).
But now, crystalline ore has such a special role, and the situation has become confusing again.
"Master, is this thing related to the source?" Zhu Bajie looked at Tang Luo who came over and asked.
Tang Luo took out the summoning heart and threw it into the ore pile, but there was no response.
Practice makes sense.
There seems to be little connection between the two.
He shook his head and retrieved the summoning heart: "Deal with these people first, Bajie, protect the little white dragon." ”
"Okay." Zhu Bajie nodded.
Even if he is weakened, he is now at the level of a fierce general of the world battlefield on his side.
Ao Yulie is a patient with a fever, and it is good to be able to stand and walk.
Although at the last moment, Ao Yulie re-transformed into a human form, but three large living people suddenly appeared on the mine.
Unless the nearby guards were blind, they couldn't see them.
At this time, they had already gathered around, and their weapons, in addition to swords and ge, also had crossbows.
More than twenty crossbow arrows were aimed at Tang Luo and them.
With the sound of the crossbow strings loosening after tautness, sharp crossbow arrows flew in.
Tang Luo raised his right hand and shook it violently, and the brocade robe made a hunting sound, and the wind surged.
The bolts were swept away by the wind and immediately lost their sights, some falling to the ground and some hitting their allies.
"It doesn't feel like I need it." Zhu Bajie said.
Even if he was weakened, Master was still terrifyingly strong.
When did Master suddenly become stronger...... No, it seems that from the time I met Master, he was getting stronger all the time.
The practice of traveling to the west can sometimes even be regarded as masochism.
Even the senior brother said that fortunately, there is a meritorious jade lotus by his side, otherwise with the master's cultivation method, his life may be lost.
Zhu Bajie was a little distracted, but Ao Yulie beside him thought of something, and sneakily took out the White Dragon Gale Staff.
He raised his staff and pointed in the direction of one of the guards, and three ice picks appeared out of thin air and struck the guard.
The guard had already been hit by an arrow in the knee, where could he block it to avoid the ice pick, and a few blood flowers popped out of his shoulder and abdomen, and he fell directly to the ground.
His armor was shattered.
The lethality of an ice pick is much stronger than that of a bullet.
"Master, the skill can be used!" Ao Yulie, who succeeded in the experiment, was pleasantly surprised.
Magician, the output of Ao Yulie is online!
A hundred kinds of magic to use online.
"Really?" Tang Luo answered, and there was no more movement.
Skills, his skills are all support skills!
"I'm coming!"
Ao Yulie jumped out, and Zhu Bajie cast a mixed yuan cover, enveloping Ao Yulie as well, blocking the crossbow arrows that shot at him.
The Wind Blade and Tiangang Fire were used one after another, and several guards were eliminated.
The three-plate axe was used up, and Ao Yulie's mission was completed.
The output is already weak, and the next thing is to rely on the master and brother.
"You hold up your own magic shield." Zhu Bajie reminded him, took away the mixed element cover, and simply rushed towards the remaining guards.
Easily avoid the attacks of those people and slap a child.
Quickly eliminated all the guards, showing the strength of what is called a battlefield general.
But more guards, and even slave miners, were approaching.
Outside the basin, on the watchtower, there was also the sound of a horn.
