Chapter 5: Do you miss your brother?

All the way east, the silent Khotan Xiaoluo and Tang Buyi suddenly noticed that Xiao Nu was a little wrong, and they convulsed intermittently several times, and wanted to ask Xiao Nu what was going on, but they were stopped by Xiao Nu, and the two of them looked at ease and did not have to worry.

It's strange to say, some people have been together for a lifetime, but there is no tacit understanding, and some people have only been together for a few days, but they seem to have known each other for a lifetime.

In just a few days, the relationship between the three of them has increased day by day, and they have a lot of trust in each other, and the tacit understanding is very high.

Uncle Qin, the chief steward, probably never dreamed that the unique prohibition technique that he was proud of would be broken by a thirteen-year-old boy who had never cultivated seriously. If this news spreads, I am afraid it will shock the entire Qingxi City and cause a sensation in the entire Eastern District.

Xiao angrily gritted his teeth, and launched a huge encirclement and suppression against the forbidden golden snake of Uncle Qin, the great steward who was cowering in the last spiritual vein, no longer vicious and ferocious, and who was so electric that he convulsed incessantly.

The liquid silver spiritual power surged away like mercury, engulfing the golden snake in an instant, and soon Xiao Nu felt a kind of joy in the bottom of his heart.

After destroying the nine vicious golden snakes that could discharge electricity from the chief steward Uncle Qin who was entrenched in the nine spiritual veins, Xiao Nu's nine spiritual veins were suddenly widened, making him feel that his strength was even far greater than before, especially the original silver rippling spiritual sea had changed a little, which made Xiao Nu even more ecstatic.

It was a golden silk-like arc of electricity, which appeared and disappeared from time to time on the surface of the Spirit Sea, and it was breathtaking.

If Xiao Nu didn't guess wrong, he concluded that the spiritual power he would exert in the future would have the effect of an electric man as long as some filamentous arcs were attached.

Spiritual power is electrified, this is a great secret method, at least it must be a four-star or above practice secret, right? No wonder that unruly old man looks like Lao Tzu is the first in the world, and people have this arrogant capital.

Sure enough, the Nie family, as the largest seven-star family in dragon slaying, has too much family background.

"If only that guy had more spiritual power in my body to devour me. ”

Resuming cultivation, Xiao Nu, who had taken a reassuring pill, swept away his previous malaise, and suddenly his eyes flashed back and forth on Khotan Xiaoluo and Tang Buyi, and he saw that the two of them felt furious in their hearts, and said secretly: "Could it be that Xiaolu has been crazy and stupid all the way?"

Xiao Nu counted carefully, those powerful arcs, only nine threads, which matched the nine golden snakes before, it can be said that with one trace is less, and he hit the idea on the two of Khotan Xiaoluo. If you destroy the spiritual power golden snake on the two of them again, if you can still get a few traces of arc spiritual power, when you reach the high-level mining area, the means of saving your life will add an important yard.

The most important thing is that if he is free, Xiao Nu will never want his three brothers to run to the heavily guarded Fengyan Castle to beg Naqin to be uninhibited, what kind of great opportunity is a floating cloud in Xiao Nu's heart, and the next target of the three of them can only be Qingxi Academy, which is the most critical step for them to break out of the cocoon and rebirth.

In the distance, rolling mountains appeared, and two overseers, who didn't want to say a word, turned back to signal that the high-level mining area had arrived.

Xiao Nu stared around and saw that the mighty Blood Sand River coming from the south was cut off by that mountain range, and he was amazed, Khotan Xiaoluo leaned in and whispered: "Brother Xiaolu, there is a terrible Ridge of No Return over there." ”

Xiao Nu asked: "I heard that if you don't take a boat, you can cross that area and cross the territory, when will our brothers also go to the richest territory in the legend to open their eyes." ”

Khotan Xiaoluo's eyes flickered a few times, and he said a little dejectedly: "I think it's better to forget it, it's too terrifying there." ”

As they spoke, they came to the entrance of a valley-shaped place, and the first thing they saw was a tall black stone tablet, and one of the overseers threw down three wooden plaques with his hand, and then left Xiao Nu and the three of them into the valley and disappeared.

"Damn, which one are they going to sing?" Khotan Xiaoluo angrily picked up the wooden sign on the ground and distributed it to Xiao Nu and Tang Buyi.

"This wooden sign should be our way in and out of this high-end mining area. Come and see, this stele is not simple. Xiao Nu stared at the stone tablet with relish.

"Brother Xiaolu, you, do you know how to read? Hehe, Xiaobu and I don't know a single big character, tell us quickly, what is written on this tablet?"

"This high-end mining area of the Nie family mainly produces six kinds of ores, namely hematite, Lingbi, bamboo leaves, Jinbi, Ying, and Kun, of which the value of hematite is the lowest, and the value of stone and kunshi is the highest, but if you are lucky enough, you can also find spiritual sand, then you will make a fortune!"

"Brother Xiaolu, what is spirit sand?"

"It is a kind of mutated ore that contains rich spiritual energy, which can be used in many fields of the monk world, although it cannot be directly used for monk cultivation like spirit stones, but spiritual sand is needed in many fields such as alchemy, talisman making, and tool making. If our brother can find a few pieces of spiritual sand, then the task of tripling the hematite ore will be completed. ”

"How many? My God, is one spiritual sand worth 10,000 catties of hematite? Why are we still stunned, hurry up and find spiritual sand!"

According to the introduction on this stone tablet, the spiritual sand is generally hidden in the bottom layer of the mine, even if we can find a place, I am afraid we will not be able to get it. ”

"What's going on?" Tang Buyi asked with a rare opening.

"The higher the value of the ore, the more powerful the star insects that live around it, the spiritual sand is covetous, let's not be ambitious, I dare to say that there are thirty or forty three-star miners here, none of them dare to engage in spiritual sand. Let's go first and see the reality and then talk about it. The role of wooden signs, let's talk about it as we go. ”

Xiao Nu picked up the wooden card, bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood, Khotan Xiaoluo and the two did the same, the wooden card is the key to open the forbidden entrance circle, and it is also the identity certificate.

After entering the valley, there was a row of simple wooden sheds, about forty or fifty rooms, Xiao Nu and the three of them chose the three uninhabited ones closest to the mouth of the valley to live, and used the wooden sign to go to the overseer's office to receive seven days' rations and mining tools.

The mining tools in the high-level mining area are different, and each person can receive three mine hoes and one mine basket. This mine basket is not simple, it is said that it can be specially loaded, and it is specially refined by the Nie family's craftsmen. In addition, Xiao Nu and the three of them also received a short dagger for self-defense, a bottle of hemostatic medicine, and a bottle of anthelmintic medicine.

Before mining, the first thing to do is to apply anthelmintic medicine to your neck, heart, etc.

After packing up, the three brothers carried the mine basket and the mine hoe on their backs and walked towards the mouth of the mine.

As they passed by the wooden huts, from time to time someone poked their heads out and looked at the three of them. Some also got together and whispered.

"See, the three homeless children who haven't grown all their hair have also come to rob us of our jobs, what the hell. ”

"Shhh You know Xu San, right?"

"Xu San, mine tyrant Xu San, you know, what's wrong?"

"Xu San extorted these three newcomers from the mining area under Huer's jurisdiction, and guess what? ”

"Damn, so fierce, although Xu San's strength is slightly worse than ours, but he is also an early monk, how can this be?"

"Look, Xu San is dead, these three boys don't have any, but they came to us, the comer is not good, I advise you to settle down. ”

"Thank you Brother Li for reminding me. ”

“......”

The three brothers went straight to the mouth of the mine with the miner's lamp, there were four Nie family monks guarding there, all dressed in mighty battle armor, Xiao Nu glanced a few times, and found that the four cultivators were all among the two stars, and they were secretly speechless.

It is said that the Eastern District is the world of the Nie family, and sure enough, this is true, this background is indeed much stronger than the three major families in the other three districts.

After checking the identities of the three people, Xiao Nu and the three sat in a large basket, were put into the dark mine, and began to fall.

Khotan Xiaoluo, who was a little scared, was about to turn on the miner's lamp on his head, but Xiao Nu stopped and said, "Don't be busy, the miner's lamp can be saved, let's try to stay down there for as much time as possible." ”

A miner's lamp lasts no more than three days. Xiao Nu didn't care about himself, but Khotan Xiaoluo and Tang Buyi didn't have this thing, and it would be difficult to move an inch when they got down.

There was enough time for a cup of tea, the basket was finally put on the ground, the three of them went to the ground, and turned on the miner's lamp at the same time.

This is the safety station that every underground mine has in every underground mine.

In fact, the three of them had a clear division of labor before they set off, and Khotan Xiaoluo was responsible for preserving the food of the three of them, and after finding a foothold, Tang Buyi would follow Xiao Nu to start the first operation.

The three of them who have been in the rivers and lakes for many years know that in this dark world, it is not only the vicious star insects that devour people, but also the greedy humans who are more terrifying than them.

Descending the stone steps, Xiao Nu led everyone to dig a hole in a stone wall about thirty meters behind the left side of the stone platform.

Xiao Nu did not let Tang Buyi follow him, but decided to explore the road alone first, so he persuaded the two to stay, carrying the one-refining mine hoe, two short daggers in his waist, and setting off with the mine basket on his back.

Xiao Nu didn't turn on the miner's lamp on his head, but everything within thirty meters was as clear as day.

Carefully walking out less than 100 meters, Xiao Nu avoided the three waves of people.

It seems that even if all of them are one-star monks, these three-star miners do not dare to act alone here, and they all have their own small groups.

Xiao Nu found that the place he passed had been swept many times, and although there was a small amount of hematite hidden in some stone walls, Xiao Nuzhi was not here.

From the introduction of the stone stele, Xiao Nu learned that the most powerful star insects in this mining area are the sand swallowing ant, the gold swallowing centipede, and the five poisonous mosquitoes, and the strength of a single is comparable to that of a human one-star late stage monk, and even surpasses. But Xiao Nu was not afraid.

With the ability to see in darkness brought about by detection, he himself can avoid these poisonous insects in advance as long as he is careful and alert enough.

The further he went, the less people were reached, Xiao Nu successfully avoided the habitat of more than a dozen poisonous insects and came to a stone wall.

In the horizon formed by the detection technique, this stone wall was as crystal clear as an emerald green emerald.

Xiao Nu was overjoyed, if I am not mistaken, this stone wall hides a relatively rich amount of jasmine, which is an ore that is mostly used to make talismans, and a pound of jasmine can be exchanged for a thousand catties of hematite.

took out the mine hoe and was about to start digging carefully, Xiao Nu suddenly felt something abnormal on the soles of his feet, and the moment he lowered his head, his left foot was numb, and a pain came from his heart.

Hurriedly jumped away, looked at it fixedly, Xiao Nu almost fainted: "Be cautious all the way, I didn't expect to be on the road, why didn't I search the ground carefully before, am I going to die in the hands of this sand swallowing ant, nest!"

As soon as he thought of this, Xu was attacked by ant venom, Xiao Fu's eyes darkened, and when he opened his eyes again, he screamed with joy.

"Haha, brother is finally back again! Xinglan, brother has come to see you!

In front of the stone wall where the gold and jasmine were hidden, Xiao Nu's whole person disappeared abruptly, but a thick bowl-sized sand swallowing ant with a blood-red body came out of the dirt on the ground, shaking its head stupidly with two large pincers.

In a few moments, a turquoise aura overflowed from the stone wall, the thickness of a finger, but it disappeared strangely above the sand swallowing ants.
