The area that Qingyang and Chen Biwang had reached was hundreds of miles, deducting the area they had already explored for more than three months, and the dozens of miles around the spirit stone veins, there were still a lot of places left. However, after receiving the reward, everyone seemed to be more motivated, and it only took more than a month to complete all the remaining work.

As for the other two groups of inner courtyard disciples, according to the news from the son of Lord Kang Zhuang, they were almost completed, and at most it would take another half a month to complete the exploration of the area they assigned, but it was more disappointing that only one group found a small spirit stone pit, and the remaining group did not seem to be very lucky, and they didn't find anything.

Recently, the Spirit Mine Courtyard has sent more people to the Shocking Wind Mountain, and has built the Spirit Mine Stronghold of the Qingfeng Hall near the Spirit Stone Vein. The mining disciples were also in place, and most of them were Miscellaneous Faculty Courtyard Open Pulse Realm disciples, and there were hundreds of them.

The work of mining is done by the disciples of the Miscellaneous Courtyard and the Outer Court, and the disciples of the Spirit Mining Academy are responsible for the supervision and inspection, and these trivial matters do not need to be handled by the disciples of the Inner Courtyard such as Qingyang and Chen Biwang, so after completing the work at hand, the few of them are relatively idle.

It's not that there is nothing to do, it's just that their job has changed from searching for ore veins to clean up demon beasts to protecting the safety of spirit stone veins and mining disciples. Usually, they only need to sit in their stronghold in the Stormy Mountains, and only need to come forward when they are in danger. This work is relatively boring, but it does not delay their cultivation, and of course the remuneration will be lower.

Seeing that the stronghold of the Lingshi vein was established, the Lingkuang Institute also began to organize people to work in the mine, and everything was on the right track, Qingyang, Chen Biwang and others all settled down. The task they received was to serve in the Storm Mountain for a year, and now it has only been nearly six months, and they have to stay here for half a year, which means that there is still a year and a half, and the Inner Courtyard Contest is about to begin.

The matter of mining soon entered the formal, and the good news came back on the first day, a total of more than 20 spirit stones were dug, including a medium-grade spirit stone, and the harvest was not small. Afterwards, Qingyang, Chen Biwang and others settled down in this stronghold, and they usually meditated and practiced in the ashram in the stronghold, and they would also walk around in their spare time.

Qingyang and Chen Biwang thought that the next half a month might have to be spent like this, but unfortunately it backfired, they were stable for only three days, and news came from Kangjiazhuang, saying that something was wrong, and the Qingyuan scattered people asked them to leave one person to stick to the stronghold, and the others returned to Kangjiazhuang.

After some discussion, everyone left Zeng Shuisheng to guard the stronghold, and Qingyang, Chen Biwang, Miao Baoye, and Kangzhuang returned to Kangjiazhuang together. When I arrived at Kangjiazhuang, I found that it was not only them who came back, but also two other groups of inner courtyard disciples, and even the Spirit Mine Courtyard had drawn out a lot of people to come back, and there were twenty or thirty people gathered in the entire courtyard, and the air was filled with a smell of blood.

Qing Yang looked around and discovered the source of the smell of blood, which turned out to be from Fang Wenshan's group of inner courtyard disciples. At the beginning, their fifteen inner courtyard disciples were divided into three groups, counting the guides sent by Kangjiazhuang, each group should be six people, except for Li Shengbo in Qingyang's group, who had an accident, the other two groups did not have any damage, but now they found that Fang Yunshan's group also had an accident.

There were only four of them in a group of six people who appeared here now, and all of them were injured, among them, Fang Yunshan, who was the most seriously injured, was pale and listless, his left arm was almost broken, and there was a terrifying wound on his abdomen, he could almost see the internal organs, and he almost lost half of his life.

Everyone didn't know what was going on, but looking at the situation of Fang Wenshan's group, it seemed that they had been attacked, and the danger level was even more powerful than the group of mountain rats they had encountered in Qingyang before, otherwise there would not be only four people who escaped back. Could it be that they also encountered some powerful demon beasts? To be able to injure a group of inner court disciples like this, it's at least a fourth-order, right?

Just when everyone was speculating, Qingyuan Sanren, who was sitting on the main seat, suddenly slapped the table and said, "It was Li Shengbo before, and now he has injured my two disciples, which is really too deceitful." ”

Senior Uncle Liang next to him was taken aback and said, "Senior Brother Qingyuan, the matter has not yet come to light, we can't draw conclusions so early." ”

Uncle Zhou said, "Isn't this clear? Who else but the Frightening Wind Pavilion could do such a thing? It must be the people of the Shocking Wind Pavilion, because the Seven Great Immortal Sects have taken away their spirit stone veins, and they are angry in their hearts, so they secretly poison our Qingfeng Hall disciples. ”

After listening to the words of the three uncles of the Spirit Mining Academy, Qingyang finally understood what was going on, it turned out that they had counted Li Shengbo's death and the attack on Fang Yunshan and the others on the head of the Shocking Wind Pavilion.

It was not clear whether Fang Yunshan and the others were attacked by the Shocking Wind Pavilion and Qingyang, but he knew that Li Shengbo's death was probably not related to the Shocking Wind Pavilion, but this matter was related to himself, and he definitely couldn't come forward to speak, otherwise wouldn't he not confess himself?

According to Uncle Zhou, the Storming Pavilion did have a motive for doing this, but Uncle Liang still thought it should be safer, and said: "That's what I said, but we don't have direct evidence to prove that the Shocking Wind Pavilion did it, so we can't be rash." Especially that Li Shengbo, it is not clear whether he is alive or dead now, how can he be counted on the head of the Storm Pavilion? ”

Uncle Zhou sneered: "What evidence do you need for such an obvious thing?" You ask Fang Yunshan them, was it the disciples of the Shocking Wind Pavilion who attacked them this time? ”

After listening to Uncle Zhou's words, everyone unanimously turned their eyes to Fang Yunshan and the others, and the inner courtyard disciple of the ninth layer of qi refining in the team said: "At that time, we encountered a pair of third-order forest-piercing beasts, and at the critical moment, they were suddenly attacked from behind, and Senior Brother Kang died directly, Senior Brother Zuo couldn't react, and was also bitten to death by the forest-piercing beasts, and the remaining four of us not only had to deal with the pair of crazy forest-piercing beasts, but also had to deal with the sneak attack in the dark, and finally escaped back desperately." ”

The senior disciple Zuo he was talking about was the disciple of the seventh-layer inner courtyard of Qi refining who died, and he was a little unlucky, because he was too close to the forest beast when the accident happened, and he couldn't react in time after being attacked by someone, and he was bitten to death directly. And Master Kang's nephew is the eldest son of Lord Kangzhuang, and his cultivation is only at the eighth layer of the Open Pulse Realm, and he doesn't even have a chance to resist when he is attacked by someone. As for the rest of the people, they were all injured when they got rid of the two third-order forest piercing beasts and the sneak attackers.

"Can you see clearly, they are really disciples of the Storm Pavilion?" Uncle Liang asked.
