On this day, everyone rushed to the sea cliff early in the morning, but heard a surprising and disturbing news.

"Yesterday evening, we found a nest of 'gold-eating ants' under the mine, and how many people died?"

Everyone was talking about the situation in the mine, the situation had become very bad, and no one wanted to go down the mine anymore. Even the overseers were interspersed in the crowd with solemn expressions.

Wang Chongxi went into the crowd to inquire about the news, and came out after a while, with a worried face.

"Brother Wang, what's going on, it can't be true, right?" Zhuge Long asked impatiently.

Everyone looked at Wang Chongxi and waited for an explanation.

Wang Chongxi glanced at Wen and Rong concealedly, and nodded heavily: "It's true, yesterday someone under the mine opened a nest of 'gold-eating ants', but it was swallowed before they had time to escape, and even the monks in the surrounding tunnels also suffered, and none of the seven people escaped——"

"What!"

"How can you not escape?"

The monk is not a mortal, he can move dozens of meters in an instant, how can he not run?

"What the hell is this 'gold-eating ant', a demon beast?"

"How can there be monsters in the outside world?"

Faced with many questions, Wang Chongxi couldn't answer them.

At this time, Wen Xishan said: "I know a little bit-"

Their eyes lit up and they looked at him.

"Brother Wen, tell me quickly, what is this, even the monk doesn't have time to run, it's too terrifying!"

"yes, with this thing, no one can go to the mine!"

In this moment, the monks of the mining area gathered more and more, but none of them wanted to approach the edge of the sea cliff. It's a bit of a 'talk about ant discoloration'.

Wen Xishan groaned and said, "The 'gold-eating ants' are social animals. There may be millions or more of them in a litter, and they generally live under various mines. I like to eat all kinds of ores or omnivores—"

"This—" Everyone's faces changed.

They realized how terrifying it would be for a million 'gold-eating ants' to devour crystal ore, and how would everyone dig for crystal ore if they were allowed to be devoured by them?

"The 'gold-eating ant' is not very large, only half the size of an adult's little finger, and its whole body is dark red, but it has two pairs of jaws, which is extremely powerful and indestructible. It's easy to chew the ore!"

Everyone trembled again, the ore can be easily chewed, let alone the flesh and blood?

"The physical body of a Qi cultivator can't resist its aggression, but the defensive Yuan Fu can resist it, and as long as the defensive Yuan Fu is always there, then it can't invade—" Wen Xishan continued.

"It's okay, the Yuan Fu works!" everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"In addition, the 'gold-eating ants' are very afraid of fire. The Fire Vitality Technique has an obvious killing effect, and it can't resist it!" Wen Xishan said again.

"Still afraid of fire?

As a monk, the Yuan Qi technique naturally has to be learned, including the fireball technique, the fire dragon technique, etc. The best way to deal with the 'gold-eating ants'.

Wen Xishan smiled faintly, and introduced the most eloquently: "However, the 'gold-eating ant' is not a demon beast. It's just that it has the bloodline of the demon beast 'Gold Devouring Ant', a word difference. But it's the difference between heaven and earth, and the vast majority of ants are born without blood!"

"It's not a monster! They must be destroyed!"

"Yes, we have to organize people to go to the mine and destroy these 'gold-eating ants', otherwise this mine will not be able to be dug up! Besides, let these things swallow the crystal ore, what else will we dig?"

"Don't worry, there must be a master to organize people!"

As soon as the scripture Xishan introduced the 'gold-eating ants', the fear of this group of people disappeared, but they were a little eager to try, and there were two states before and after.

Even Du Xing and Ying Hu, who were so calm, were obviously relieved. Obviously, they believed Wen Xishan's words, and the absolute 'gold-eating ants' were not terrible.

Zhang Weidong stood behind the people and didn't say a word, but his eyes were bright.

The ordinary 'gold-eating ants' are indeed not demon beasts, only the bloodline of the demon beast's 'gold-eating ants', and at the same time, they are indeed afraid of the fire-type vitality technique, and they are afraid of the fire abnormality, which Wen Xishan said is not wrong. But he left out some important points that he didn't say.

The 'Gold-Eating Ant' is not a demon beast, but the 'Gold-Eating Ant Queen' is.

As soon as it matures, it is equivalent to a sixth-level demon beast that cultivates qi, and it can also grow to the seventh, eighth, or even ninth layers of the Great Perfection, which is terrifying.

It has a trace of the terrifying devouring ability of the 'Gold Devouring Ant', which is a great threat to Qi cultivators, and even to monks who have built a foundation in half a step.

In addition, although the 'gold-eating ants' are afraid of fire, they are difficult to clean up in the mines. Because of their small size, and the countless rubble underneath them for them to hide, even the ability to perform the Vitality Technique will be greatly reduced. And they crawl very fast, and they can usually only be felt when they sneak into a person and start devouring human flesh.

At that time, there may be a swarm of 'gold-eating ants' moving their mouths, and it is too late to be in pain. This is also the reason why the seven monks could not escape, it is estimated that they could not run more than ten meters, and their flesh and blood were devoured.

Furthermore, the defensive meta charm is indeed useful. However, the defensive talisman does not last forever, and the monk needs to change the talisman from time to time. And in this gap, 'gold-eating ants' can mix in, which is also very dangerous.

Finally, although the 'gold-eating ants' devour ores, they don't like crystal ores, which means that they pose little threat to crystal ores.

Wen Xishan concealed this, obviously suspicious, and he should also understand the great benefits of the appearance of the 'gold-eating ants'.

Where there are nests of 'gold-eating ants', usually where crystal ores gather, there will be wind tunnels, wormholes, may be ore veins, may be sub-ore veins, and low-grade metacrystals may appear.

That's not the main thing, though.

After the 'gold-eating ants' devour various minerals, the things that are excreted are treasures.

For example, black iron essence stone and red copper essence stone, the two most commonly used training materials.

In the nest of the 'gold-eating ant', these two refining materials are definitely much more than the lower grade Yuan Crystal, and moreover, this refining material is small in size, and it can be harvested without effort, winning by quantity, it is definitely a thousand or ten thousand times more cost-effective than mining crystal ore.

"Here's the opportunity!" Zhang Weidong suppressed the excitement in his heart.

This time, he came to act as a miner, and his plot was to make the low-grade Yuan Crystal, so that the Aoki box could be devoured enough and find out the secrets inside. Now that the nest of the 'gold-eating ants' has appeared, he can take advantage of the chaos to make a profit and leave here early.

It's been a few months since he came out, and he also thinks about his relatives.

——

"Lonely Hongzi Ancestor, Pure Wind Ancestor has arrived!" Suddenly, the crowd was in a commotion, and someone whispered.

The crowd automatically separated into a road, and in the middle, Gu Hongzi and Li Chunfeng came side by side, followed by Director Yu, who was a follower.

When he arrived at this sea cliff, Director Yu opened his voice and said to everyone: "Gu Hongzi Ancestor and Pure Wind Ancestor will go down to the mine to eliminate the 'gold-eating ant' swarm, but there are still some errands, it is best to know the fireball technique and the fire dragon technique, only one hundred are needed, and each monk who goes to the mine can get a reward of 1,000 crystal coins!"

As soon as the shouting was over, the scene was very quiet, you look at me, I look at you, but no one squeaked to sign up.

Most people don't know much about the 'gold-eating ants', they are afraid of the unknown, and seven people died yesterday, all of them were at the fourth or fifth level of Qi cultivation, which is similar to their cultivation, which makes them even more afraid.

Gu Hongzi and Li Chunfeng frowned a little, but Director Yu broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"What are you afraid of, the 'gold-eating ants' are not scary, they are afraid of fire, as long as there is fire, they can be destroyed, and the two ancestors are going to go to the mine, what are you worried about, a group of bad seeds!" Director Yu was anxious and angry.

But no one squeaked, and with their heads down, they were probably watching.

"Two ancestors, let's sign up!" At this time, Wen Xishan raised his hand and squeezed out of the crowd with Du Xing, Zhang Weidong and others.

Gu Hongzi and Li Chunfeng swept Wen Xishan and Rong Ying, frowned, and stared at them a few meaningfully. Obviously, Wen and Rong couldn't hide Gu Hongzi and Li Chunfeng's perception at all.

Wen Xishan also smiled a little wryly, and didn't seem to have any intention of hiding it.

At this time, Gu Hongzi said: "Accurate!"

"Thank you Ancestor!" Wen Xishan hurriedly saluted, and then stood aside with everyone.

There were nine of them, and even Zhang Weidong joined.

Director Yu saw that it was not possible to go on like this, so he immediately came over and handed out crystal coins to nine people, and the golden ones were 1,000 crystal coins for each person.

This crystal coin is very dazzling, and it is tempting enough. When the rest of the people saw that even Zhang Weidong, a monk in the late stage of the fourth layer of qi cultivation, had joined, they were immediately moved.

One, two, and soon a group of people were recruited.

When Director Yu saw that there were all the people, he suddenly exhaled secretly, and finally got the people together.

And there are many people who are also moved, but a hundred people have been recruited, and they regret it at this time.

A thousand crystals, just ran away.

The 100 people were divided into ten teams, and each team was led by an overseer.

"The 'gold-eating ants' are not terrifying, after a while, listen to the orders of the captain of each squad, attack with the fireball technique and the fire dragon technique, and you can clean them up! Elder Yu, distribute the map!" Gu Hongzi swept everyone and said lightly.

The map shows the location of the nests of the 'gold-eating ants' and the general extent of their activity.

Zhang Weidong also got a map, and he was a little surprised when he looked at the range marked on it. It seems that it is not far from his own tunnel, at most a straight line distance of 100 meters.

It's close!

"Okay, you know the general direction of the Dao, then, let's go now!" Li Chunfeng said at this time.

Hundreds of people went down to the mine to eliminate the 'gold-eating ants', and Zhang Weidong and others pulled behind the most.

Du Xing touched him and said in a low voice, "Be careful for a while!"

Zhang Weidong nodded, took out a handful of Yuan Fu and secretly stuffed it into Du Xing's arms, and said in a low voice: "You too-"

When Du Xing looked at the things in his arms, he immediately opened his mouth wide, and hurriedly put it away, and when he looked at Zhang Weidong again, he was full of surprise and puzzlement.

There are more than 20 Yuan Talismans in that hand, and they are all defensive Yuan Talismans 'Wooden Armor Talismans'!

It's just that, how can Brother Zhang have so many?

PS: It's been delayed in the past two days, but fortunately, Tiandao guarantees two watches, and this can't be less. Before midnight, the second watch will arrive. (To be continued.) )
