Chapter 5 Fortune and Destiny
The breathing is slowly regular, the chest is still like a thousand gold, and the hands and feet are even more difficult to move.
Nan Xiaoyao slowly regained his clarity in his mind, only to feel that the light in front of him was a little dazzling, and he opened his eyes helplessly.
He really didn't know how God was going to torture him this time!
"Are you awake?"
A familiar voice rang out.
"Huh? Brother Luo? ”
Nan Xiaoyao squinted his eyes, and finally saw clearly the person in front of him, who was Luo Daohua who he met before going down to the coal mine.
"You are really blessed with a great life, you can come back to life, tsk." Luo Daohua said.
Nani!
Is this a blessing and a great life?
Lao Tzu has died several times!
"Brother Luo, what's going on?"
Nan Xiaoyao doesn't want to dwell on the matter of "great fortune and great life", but what does it mean that he is buried in the grave and only shows his head outside?
"Oh, it's okay, you can climb out on your own." Luo Daohua explained.
In the reincarnation realm, after a person dies, he will soon be infiltrated by the vitality, and even if he does not die normally, the corpse will turn into a wisp of green smoke and dissipate in the heavens and the earth in a short time.
Only by burying it in the soil can the influence of the vitality be reduced and give him enough time to recover.
Luo Daohua didn't know whether Nan Xiaoyao was dead or not, so he simply buried it first, even if he really couldn't wake up, after a long time, it would still become a cloud of green smoke.
"I remember there were beasts in the mines, how did you get me out?"
Nan Xiaoyao continued to ask, since he had the opportunity, he naturally had to break the casserole and ask to the end, maybe he would die again one day.
"That's right."
After listening to Luo Daohua's explanation, Nan Xiaoyao had to feel deeply grateful to the irascible man in front of him who had no good feelings at all.
The demon beast attacked, and everyone fled for their lives, but Luo Daohua hid, and only after the demon beast passed, did he dig Nan Xiaoyao out of the mine.
Nan Xiaoyao survived the catastrophe, but Luo Daohua died even more.
"Brother Luo, thank you!"
Nan Xiaoyao bowed down and said from the bottom of his heart.
"Hey, what is this, big man? Twist and pinch! ”
Luo Daohua waved his hand.
"That's right, Brother Luo, brother will invite you to drink in the future!"
Nan Xiaoyao patted his chest.
"That's right, haha!" Luo Daohua's face was arrogant.
The two chatted for a long time, and Nan Xiaoyao also learned a lot of information.
When there was an accident in the mine before, it was indeed the thin monkey who was a troublemaker, and it seemed that he had received the benefits of the Wang and Li families, and wanted to kill him, completely eliminating the hidden danger.
Unexpectedly, because of the sudden beast riot, Nan Xiaoyao survived instead.
Regarding the power of the three major families in Ximeng City, Nan Xiaoyao also has a new understanding.
Strength is king, whether in the past life or in this life, it is a fact that cannot be changed.
"Brother Luo, aren't these black stones very valuable?"
Nan Xiaoyao suddenly asked, the black stone is coal, and he needs to use coal as his starting point.
"Yes, don't say it's us mortals, even those monks will use it, and they will also use it for refining tools and alchemy."
Although Luo Daohua didn't understand what Nan Xiaoyao meant, he still replied seriously.
"Then these coal mines are in the mountains, and wild beasts often appear, right?" Nan Xiaoyao asked again.
"Yes, over the years, many brothers have not died in the mines, but on these beasts." Luo Daohua's expression was a little gloomy.
Black stones are generally in the mountains, and in some places the soil is black stones, but there are also many wild beasts in these places, and these mortals have no force, and death and injury are inevitable.
"That's easy!"
Nan Xiaoyao nodded, and had an idea.
"What do you mean?"
Luo Daohua was a little confused by the second monk.
"Brother Luo, you see, this black stone is very precious, but it is all in the mountain, if we dig the black stone on the edge of the city, there will be no beast attack, it is much safer, and it is convenient to sell it in the city, do you think it is a good idea?" Nan Xiaoyao rolled his eyes and said.
"And! What do you want? Where are there mines on the edge of the city? Luo Daohua really thought that Nan Xiaoyao had a good idea, but he didn't expect it to be so unreliable.
"Let's go, Brother Luo, you take me back to the city, let's walk all the way and look all the way, we will definitely find it!"
Nan Xiaoyao said confidently.
Coal mines are deposited over a large area during geological evolution, but they are more likely to be found in the mountains because of various crustal movements in the later period.
In fact, even in the plains, there are coal mines, but they are not visible underground.
In the previous life, Nan Xiaoyao was a doctor of geology, and studied the theory of coal generation for many years, although there is no instrument exploration now, but there is also basic judgment knowledge, as long as you are careful, it is not impossible to find a suitable coal mine.
"Really?"
Luo Daohua asked suspiciously.
"Don't worry, Brother Luo will just wait to collect the money when the time comes!"
Nan Xiaoyao patted his chest.
Luo Daohua is not the heir of the Nan family, but the previous mine cave belonged to the Nan family, which can be regarded as working for the Nan family, and now if you can find the black stone mine on the edge of the city, you can indeed "turn over the serf and sing"!
Because there have been more wild beasts in the mountains recently, Luo Daohua has nothing to do during this time, looking at the firmness in Nan Xiaoyao's eyes, although he has some doubts, he still nodded.
The two of them walked around in the mountains, getting closer and closer to Ximeng City.
Along the way, Nan Xiaoyao saw a lot of broken branches and traces of wild beasts frantically impacting, and he was even more grateful to Luo Daohua in his heart.
There are many mines in the mountains, but the closer you get to Ximeng City, the fewer mines there are.
As the traces of the beast became less and less, the mine was nowhere to be found.
"I'll just say, there are no blackstone mines on the edge of the city." Luo Daohua shook his head.
"Don't worry, Brother Luo, I'll definitely find it."
Nan Xiaoyao was not discouraged at all.
After four or five days of walking along the way, he was not idle, and carefully analyzed all the caves he encountered, and he knew the conditions of the rocks above and below each cave well.
According to the law of the distribution of the mines, he has basically determined the general law of the distribution of coal seams around Ximeng City.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!
On the sixth day, the two finally saw the appearance of Ximeng City from a distance.
Ximeng City, surrounded by mountains, is built in a dam in the middle, and it is flat.
There are still more than ten miles away from Ximeng City, and the mountains have already fallen far behind the two of them.
"Brother Luo, this is it!"
Suddenly, Nan Xiaoyao stopped and pointed to the small ditch at his feet, there was not much water, but the forest was dense and dense.
"What? What about Blackstone? ”
Luo Daohua looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see any trace of the black stone.
"I'm coming!"
With that, Nan Xiaoyao picked up a shovel and jumped into the ditch.
"Crackling ......"
There was a loud noise, and the shovel slashed the surrounding miscellaneous wood to the ground, revealing the pale pink stone.
"It's not a black stone, it's a different color."
Luo Daohua looked disappointed. Degree of literature
