Chapter Twenty-Five: The Man-Eating Monster Incident
"Digging 10 feet a day, this goal is actually not easy, day after day, year after year, after a year of hard work, we have already dug 4,000 feet.
At the same time, my status in the mine has been constantly improving, because I often help Li Jing solve some slave problems, and I dare to do things that others dare not do. Soon after, I was promoted to the rank of Commander, the highest rank of slaves, with no more than ten people in the entire mine.
A month ago, we had already dug the tunnel, but we didn't leave because my brother had told us to do a good job before leaving. ”
——————————————————
"Hurry up."
After listening to Lin Yu's plan, Wu Geng hurriedly ran over and said to the three of them.
"Out of the tunnel, it's safe to cross the river."
"What about you and Brother Lin?"
The three of them looked at each other and asked.
"Senior brother and I stay and have something to do, so you can go first."
Wu Geng said.
"Then let's stay and help you, although our strength is not as good as you and Brother Lin, but we are not weak."
Hearing this, Jiang Shang said, although the three of them are not as good as Wu Geng and Lin Yu, they are also very good, the cabbage has reached level 68, Jiang Shang and A Shi have reached level 64, and they have mastered the skills of the same level, and their strength is not bad.
"No, Senior Brother said, our Terran Race should not expose too much strength now, because we don't have the strength to compete with the Protoss now, let's go, with the strength of me and Senior Brother, that waste god can't help us." Wu Geng patted his chest and reassured, and then stepped forward and hugged the cabbage.
"Wife, do you remember that there is a big tree on the street of Chaoge City, let's meet there."
"Dog!"
……
"This is the mining area, there are more than 3,300 mining channels, and slaves are sending mined bloodstones for screening."
Li Jing accompanied the ghost wood and the young man to visit the mine, and introduced Li Jing to the two of them as he walked.
"Your Excellency!"
Seeing Li Jing, all the slaves around knelt down, they didn't know the ghost wood and the youth, but they could know Li Jing.
"Li Jing, your mine is well managed."
Oniki looked at the orderly mining area, chuckled, and said.
"The Beishan Mine is grateful for the kindness and favor of the Protoss, and does not dare to slack off at any time, and pays it on time every year, in addition, the mine introduced the Bigfoot Giant from the north three years ago, providing the mine with ......"
"Who?"
Before Li Jing finished speaking, he saw Wu Geng rushing over, blocking everyone's way.
"Dog?"
Li Jing glanced at Wu Geng suspiciously, not understanding why he was in the way.
"What's in the way of this kid?"
The young man on the side said dissatisfiedly.
"The prince is angry."
Then Li Jing looked at Wu Geng and said:
"His name is Ah Gou, and he is my right-hand man, the youngest commander in the mine, Ah Gou, these two are distinguished guests, and they must not be rude.
This is the great god of the ghost wood of the plague department in the six tribes of the god race, and this is the prince Ji Qiao of the Great Zhou Kingdom. ”
"Great, great god, please forgive the villain for being rude."
Wu Geng hurriedly pretended to be frightened, but his heart was full of disdain.
Senior brother said that this waste god is only level eighty strength, and was severely injured by his father back then, and the immortal bird's Yuan Origin Realm divine power is still remaining in his body today, so that his strength has not advanced but retreated in the past four years, and it is not as strong as seventy percent of the strength of the year, and his own fire attribute spiritual power is specialized in his Dizang Realm divine power, if it really fights, this waste god is not his opponent at all.
As for that Ji Qiao, don't mention it, an ordinary person.
"It's ridiculous to be a slave who has never seen the world."
Seeing Wu Geng's panicked appearance, Ji Qiao said with an arrogant face.
"It's no wonder!"
Oniki also agreed.
"Humph! Just you two waste, if it weren't for my brother's plan, I would have killed you a long time ago, so let you live for a while longer. ”
Hearing the ridicule of the two people, Wu Geng thought coldly in his heart.
"Okay, don't be afraid, just say what you have."
Li Jing said to Wu Geng.
"Yes, Lord Li Jing."
Wu Geng responded, and then said:
"Lord Li Jing, there is already news about the man-eating monster you asked me to pay attention to."
"Li Jing, what is this kid talking about?"
Hearing this, before Li Jing could speak, Ghost Mu asked out loud.
"It's a long story, dog, you just know about it, so it's up to you to explain it to the great god."
Li Jing said to Wu Geng.
"Yes, Lord Li Jing."
Wu Geng nodded, and then said:
"About a month ago, the slaves in the mine began to disappear mysteriously, but the mine is a closed place, how can anyone disappear into thin air? Soon after, the bodies of the missing slaves were discovered, believing that they had been killed by some kind of murderous creature.
The mine has also been searched several times, but nothing has been found, and at the same time, slaves continue to go missing, most of whom have not even been able to find their stumps.
According to the description of the slave who had seen the man-eating monster with his own eyes, the monster was covered in spikes, his eyes were red, his mouth was full of fangs, and he could even spit flames in his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, he ate a person, and now the whole mine was terrified. ”
"Oh hahahaha!"
Hearing this, Onimu laughed, walked to Wu Geng's side, and asked:
"Have you ever seen that man-eating monster with your own eyes?"
"No, no, if there were, I would have died a long time ago."
Wu Geng hurriedly lowered his head, for fear that the ghost wood would find something wrong from his eyes.
"Over the years, our Beishan mine has developed rapidly, but it may also be because it has developed too fast, angering the monsters in the ground."
Li Jing also answered on the side.
"Hey! This great god has lived for hundreds of years, but I haven't seen this man-eating monster, which is interesting. ”
The ghost wood monster laughed a few times and said.
"Father-in-law, anyway, I plan to stay here and study hard, why don't I just stop by and investigate?"
After speaking, Ji Qiao asked Li Jing:
"Uncle Li Jing, what do you think?"
"With the help of His Royal Highness the Prince, I believe it will soon come to light."
Li Jing touched his beard, and then said:
"Ah Gou, you are responsible for helping His Royal Highness the Prince investigate, so please do your best to cooperate."
"Yes!"
Wu Geng nodded in response.
"Father-in-law, let's go back, we've been in this place for too long, and it's uncomfortable."
Ji Qiao didn't even glance at Wu Geng, and left with the ghost wood.
"Recognize the thief as a father, huh! I'm going to let you die a bad death. ”
Seeing Ji Qiao's title of a righteous father, Wu Geng's hatred for Ji Qiao suddenly exploded, even Lao Cai had never let him hate it so much.
"Boy, it's unclear about the man-eating monster now, you should be careful."
Li Jing also left, but when he passed by Wu Geng's side, he left a word.
