In the early morning of the next day, Chen Yuanqing had breakfast and did not go to training, but prepared to go to Yang Lao to get the pass card.

Yang Lao was very simple, directly gave the pass card to Chen Yuanqing, and reminded Chen Yuanqing to prepare a better pickaxe, which would be more convenient to dig spirit stones, and then continued to busy himself with his own affairs.

After Chen Yuanqing thanked Yang Lao, he went to an iron shop on the street where Wang's house was located to buy an iron pickaxe first, but I heard the boss say that this kind of pickaxe that specializes in digging spirit stones is specially refined, and there is a formation engraved inside, and it costs two spirit stones to buy.

But Chen Yuanqing didn't have a spirit stone at all, so he had to buy an ordinary iron pickaxe to use it first, but this kind of ordinary iron pickaxe is also very expensive, requiring five taels of silver each, and digging spirit stones is easy to break.

There is no way, Chen Yuanqing took out most of his money and bought two, and then bought it when he made money.

After putting away the iron pickaxe, he ran to the registration point, hoping to go mining as soon as possible to make some money, if there is no money, it will be difficult to cultivate an inch.

The registration office is not very far, and it will be a short time to arrive, and the registration point is not big, just a small room that can accommodate ten people, and there are three people standing next to the room.

There are two young men, one is emaciated, as if he has been malnourished for a long time, and he doesn't know if he can dig the spirit stone, and the other is relatively strong, and like Chen Yuanqing, he is the second layer of the mortal realm.

The third man was an old man, neither tall nor short, with a slightly grayish beard, but despite this, his body was quite strong and strong.

They all had iron pickaxes in their hands, and they were obviously the same as Chen Yuanqing, and they all went to the mine to mine. Looking inside, there was an old man about fifty or sixty years old, wearing a gray-black robe, holding a pen in his hand, as if he was recording something.

"Excuse me, I'm here to sign up", Chen Yuanqing hurriedly stepped forward and showed him his pass card.

The old man frowned slightly, stopped his pen and looked up at the sign in Chen Yuanqing's hand, then at Chen Yuanqing, and said impatiently: "What's your name."

"Little Chen Yuanqing," Chen Yuanqing said.

"Well, take it, don't lose it, wait next to it", after speaking, the old man threw a wooden card to Chen Yuanqing, and continued to bury his head in his own business.

Chen Yuanqing looked at the wooden plaque in his hand, the pattern on it was very simple, only Chen Yuanqing's name and a stamp representing the Wang family, nothing special, Chen Yuanqing put it away to ensure that it would not be lost, and then sat obediently and waited.

Then a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old came to sign up, and no one came. Chen Yuanqing waited until noon before a middle-aged man riding a brown horse and wearing a white robe with the logo of the Wang family came to the front of the house.

"Everyone who has signed up should come with me," the middle-aged man said bluntly, looking at a few people in the room.

When Chen Yuanqing and the others heard this, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately packed up their things and followed behind the middle-aged man. After walking for about an hour, a small city appeared in front of me.

The small city looks magnificent, about three or four zhang high, about thirty zhang long, above the tower, there is a guard every two zhang, and there are two guards in front of the gate, they are dressed in white robes, armed with spears, and they look like well-trained warriors.

The middle-aged man dismounted and stepped forward to hand over a sign to the guard, which was different from the one in the hands of Chen Yuanqing and others, it was a piece of black metal, which seemed to be engraved with complex lines.

The guard took the sign, carefully observed it back and forth, and then looked at the middle-aged man, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong, he said loudly: "Open the door and let it go."

As soon as the words ended, the gate of the small city slowly opened, and there were more than a dozen guards on each side of the gate, all of whom were armed with spears, standing there motionless.

When Chen Yuanqing and the others entered the small city, four guards followed behind them, and the middle-aged man still skillfully turned left and right in the small city as if he hadn't seen it.

In less than half a cup of tea, the middle-aged man walked into a small house, which was simply furnished, with two bookshelves on which many books were placed, and a rectangular table between the two bookshelves.

On the table, there was an old man who was keeping accounts, and after seeing the middle-aged man coming, he looked at Chen Yuanqing and others behind him, and knew that he was here to mine, and the old man stood up and said to the middle-aged man with the pen in his hand: "They will be handed over to me, you go down to rest first." ”

The middle-aged man retreated, Chen Yuanqing and the others did not dare to be presumptuous, and stood there, with their heads down and did not dare to move.

"Little Lizi, take them to Mine No. 4," the old man said loudly to the young boy outside the door.

"Yes" After Xiao Li Zi answered, he took Chen Yuanqing and the others to the abbot of the mine.

Walking along the main road of the small city to the end, I saw a cave about one zhang high, and there were four guards standing at the entrance of the cave.

Entering the mine, the first thing is a long straight road, and on either side of the straight there is a small hole that can only accommodate one person to walk, and above the entrance of the hole is written "One, two, three...".

When he walked to the entrance of the No. 4 cave, Xiao Lizi stopped, and turned to Chen Yuanqing and the others and said: "Every time you dig a spirit stone, you will be rewarded with one or two pieces of silver, and you should pay special attention to it, when you dig a medium-grade spirit stone, you will be rewarded with a spirit stone and fifty taels of silver, and every time you go out of the mine, you must hand over all the spirit stones, and you are not allowed to take them out of the mine, I wish you good luck." ”

After speaking, Xiao Lizi left, regardless of whether Chen Yuanqing understood or not, whether they still had questions.

Chen Yuanqing didn't rush into mining, but went out of the mine first and used the remaining silver to buy two days of food, after all, there is no need to go in and out, it is more convenient, and the efficiency of mining is higher.

After that, Chen Yuanqing entered the No. 4 mine cave, and after entering, he found that the passages in the cave were intricate, with dozens of forks, Chen Yuanqing found a place in the depths, and then picked up an iron pickaxe and prepared to dig spirit stones.

Chen Yuanqing raised the iron pickaxe high and smashed it against the wall of the mine, and with a ding, Chen Yuanqing's arm was numb, and only a small part of the wall was smashed.

Chen Yuanqing didn't expect the spirit stone to be so difficult to dig, and he only knocked down a small piece of stone with all his strength just now, which is really not something that ordinary people can do.

But this will not scare Chen Yuanqing, Chen Yuanqing has been digging with all his strength, and after about half an hour, Chen Yuanqing finally dug the first spirit stone.

The spirit stone is the size of a thumb, irregular in shape, and also emits a faint white light, holding it in the person's hand, feeling that the whole person is refreshed and refreshed.

Chen Yuanqing put the spirit stone into the bag, put the bag in his arms and put it away, and then continued to dig, digging the first spirit stone just now, now Chen Yuanqing is digging the spirit stone more vigorously, he doesn't want to waste a little time, he hopes to dig more spirit stones.
