In his last life, Chen Qiang had the habit of smoking, and he would want to smoke a cigarette when he was tired, annoyed, and tired.

In this life, there are many things in his previous life, he has forgotten them, a spiritual smoke, and evoked a few distant memories, there is the childlike joy of childhood, the longing of youth, the reality of entering the society, with the spiritual smoke burned out, the last breath of smoke was spit out, and those extremely distant memories were sealed again.

"The smoke is great! Thank you for your hospitality!" Chen Qiang got up and patted his buttocks, Mu Ran's face was a little more interesting.

"Don't rest any longer?" the old man took out another spiritual smoke and lit it.

"No!" Chen Qiang smiled, baring out a mouthful of white teeth.

"It's good to be young!" looked at the other party's distant back, and the old man sighed again.

The old man is just an ordinary person, although his strength is different from ordinary people, he can do some work that can only be done by martial arts, and he has accumulated a lot of wealth, but he can't step into the martial arts, wealth, power, and even life, after all, it is just a flash in the pan, and it is difficult to last long!

Chen Qiang once again found an unmanned mine and drilled into it, he wanted to regroup and make persistent efforts, only by digging hard to dig the spirit stone mine, hope would appear.

This time, he didn't want to dig horizontally, he wanted to explore in the direction of depth, he estimated that there would be no large-scale 'spirit stone nest' on the surface of the spirit stone mine, which had already been mined by his predecessors.

"Ding, eighteen lower grade spirit stones have been found, with a depth of 0.3 meters, which can be dug up!"

......

"Ding, twenty-two spirit stones have been found, with a depth of 3.5 meters, which can be dug up!"

He first explored the spirit stones on both sides of the mine, and marked all the places where there were spirit stones, but instead of digging directly, he put his palm on the ground under his feet.

Chen Qiang bent over, pouted his buttocks, his palms were tightly pressed against the ground, and he moved forward step by step, his posture was very indecent.

His movements are very slow, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as turtle speed, he did not hit the ground with a mine hoe, the mine hoe knocks to listen to the echo, the detectable range is limited, once the depth exceeds three meters, even if there is a spirit stone, the echo will not sound hollow.

In terms of exploring the spirit stone mine, Chen Qiang is only a complete novice, without any experience at all, and will not preliminarily judge whether there will be spirit stones behind the rock based on clues such as changes in the texture of the surface rock, changes in hardness, and changes in shape.

He will only use the most stupid and inefficient method, to explore all places, not to miss anywhere, every inch of the ground to probe it, although it is very time-consuming, but at the same time to ensure that nothing is missed.

The hard work paid off, and after an hour, he finally made a gain.

"Ding, I found a lower grade spirit stone, with a depth of nine and a half meters, which can be dug up!"

The sound of 'clanging' then sounded, Chen Qiang first dug out the spirit stones on both sides of the cave wall, harvested more than 10,000 spirit stones, and after putting all the spirit stones into the storage bag, he began to use the mine hoe to repair the stones that were dug out, and the stones were all repaired into regular strips, and the pieces were piled up at the entrance, and then began to sleep.

With his head resting on the stone bars and his back against the cold and hard rock, Chen Qiang's eyes were closed, his breathing was even and long, and he looked like he was sleeping very deeply.

A shadow snake in the foundation building period, somehow appeared in the mining area, or it originally lived in the mining area, and the people of the Drifting Snow faction discovered the mining area, but did not find the shadow snake in the mining area.

The shadow snake snake letter swallowed, the pitch-black forked snake letter detected someone behind the stone wall, the person's breath was very calm and steady, it judged from experience, the person was sleeping, the snake drove meandering and crawling, and drilled in through the gap in the stone bar without a sound.

The shadow snake in the late stage of foundation building, after many transformations, eyesight is no longer a weakness, although it is still used to using cold and heat sensing to detect, but a pair of erected snake pupils clearly capture Chen Qiang's sleeping posture.

Quietly approaching, without making the slightest sound, the snake's head was raised high, its mouth was open at ninety degrees, and two venomous fangs flickered like sharp daggers, venom dripped down, and the ground was corroded into extremely deep small holes without a sound.

"Poof!"

At the moment when the Shadow Serpent leaped up, the sword flashed, and the snake's head was divided in two.

Chen Qiang opened his eyes leisurely and strangled the snake head that was not completely dead into a puddle of meat foam.

He peeled off the skin of the shadow snake, tied it around his waist, took out clean water, washed the snake meat white and tender, made a stone pot with stones, and the flame of his palm rose, and made a pot of snake soup, and ate it beautifully.

The spirit beast meat in the late stage of foundation building is a good supplement for martial arts cultivation in the foundation building period, and there is no problem in eating a meal without eating for a month.

After eating a snake soup supper, Chen Qiang's whole body was warm, sleepiness welled up, and he slept soundly with his clothes again.

The internal organs of the shadow snake were burned clean by him, and as for the snake gall, it did not escape the fate of being burned to ashes.

Being attacked by the Shadow Snake at night was not even a small episode for Chen Qiang, and when he woke up, he had already been left behind, and all his thoughts were on the 'spirit stone', only the snakeskin belt around his waist left a little bit of the night event.

Lifting the stone bar on the headrest, the flame of the palm of the hand rose, the stone bar melted into magma, and a stone stick with a length of rice was gradually cooled and formed, and then the mine hoe was smelted to make a mine shovel head, which was installed on the stone stick, and a brand new mine shovel was held in his hand.

Digging down, the hoe is a little inconvenient to use, and the shovel is more suitable.

The heart formula operates, and the true yuan power passes through the dantian, passes through the meridians, and spreads to the mine, and a layer of hazy white light envelops it.

The stones flew one after another, and soon dug to a depth of nine and a half meters, and when a spirit stone arrived, Chen Qiang put his palm on the bottom of the pit.

"No?" no system prompt sounds.

Chen Qiang was stunned for a moment, and continued to dig down, he felt that a spirit stone had appeared here, and there should be more spirit stones in the depths.

Every time he dug down, he would probe again, and after digging down another five meters, he still didn't get the slightest result.

At this time, he changed his strategy and continued to dig downward, but began to expand the excavation area in all directions, forming a deep well that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.

When the bag was filled with stones, he would jump out of the deep shaft and dump the stones into the mine, repeating three times.

"Ding, thirteen lower grade spirit stones have been found, ten meters deep, which can be dug up!"

Chen Qiang felt that he had found the right direction.

"Ding, thirty-three lower grade spirit stones were found, with a depth of seven .2 meters, which can be dug up!"

"Ding, forty-one spirit stones were found, with a depth of 8.8 meters, which can be dug up!"

"Ding, fifty-seven spirit stones have been found, with a depth of nine .4 meters, which can be dug up!"

"Ding, one hundred and eleven spirit stones have been found, with a depth of nine points and nine meters, which can be dug up!"

After digging out the thirteen spirit stones, he put his palm to the ground again, and four consecutive system prompts sounded, and in the same direction, within ten meters, there were actually four spirit stones stored, and there were more and more of them!

With joy in his heart, the corners of Chen Qiang's mouth curled slightly.
