Chapter 3: Blackface Fan Lao

{3338 year of the Royal Mining District of the Fourth County of the Burning Heaven Kingdom}

After a short while, the last young man finally finished the examination, but so far there was no one who could cultivate. Seeing this, a white-clothed source mage in the lead turned around, first glanced at the two people who were selected, and then said to the bearded officer: "It is really strange that two cultivators have appeared in the mining area at one time this year, according to the rules of the empire, I also ask the mine chief to issue a certificate, so that we can take those two people to the academy for assessment." "Of course, please come with me. The bearded man led them towards the building behind them, and when the source masters turned around, You Haochen suddenly saw two light red words on their necklines - "Fire Spirit". "It turned out to be a student of the Fourth County Fire Spirit Burning Heaven Academy. He said secretly in his heart.

Seeing the bearded man and the others leaving, You Yongqiang endured his excitement and ran towards the people in Youjia Village, the young people hugged him, threw him high in the air, and then caught it, and also shouted excitedly: "Great, our Youjia Village also has a source teacher!" You Haochen couldn't reach it because of his young age, so he smiled and watched from the side, although the fool Ah Fu in the same village didn't know what was going on, but he couldn't help but dance when he saw everyone so excited. The people from Wulingzhuang next to them also remembered something when they saw this, and they all rushed to the young man who was standing in front of him, still at a loss. The same celebrations.

The soldiers in the mining area couldn't say anything when they saw this, after all, they were just ordinary people, and those two were indeed source masters, although they didn't know how to use source power, but they still made them feel awe.

After the tea effort, the bearded man and the source masters returned to the square in front of the building, and everyone didn't dare to make another time when they saw this. The Yuan Mage who was the leader beckoned to You Yong and the others, and was about to take the two away. Suddenly, the female source master asked softly, "Can you wait a minute?" The man in the lead looked at her, nodded and asked, "What's the matter with Senior Sister?" The female source master smiled and didn't speak, and then walked straight towards the miners, and the young people knew that they were not coming to find themselves, so they all took the initiative to make a way. You Haochen was still wondering, but suddenly found that she had come to him. The female source master stroked Haochen's hair and squatted down and asked, "What's your name?", Haochen was slightly stunned, and then replied: "My name is You Haochen." "You Haochen~" The female source master repeated in a low voice, only to see the ring on her finger light up, and I don't know when there was a small bronze medal in her hand, she handed the bronze medal to Hao Chen and said gently: "Haochen, my sister is now a student of the Fire Spirit Burning Heaven Academy, if you encounter difficulties, you can take it to me." Then he thought about it, and handed over five shiny copper gallons (Note: The common currency of the Four Continents - 1 gold gallon = 100 silver gallons = 10,000 copper gallons = 100,000 miles of ang = 1 million grams to help understand the value: one Leon can be understood as one dollar...... said: "Sister only brought so much today, you are still young, take it and buy more delicious food, so that the body can grow great." After all, You Haochen's mind is only in his teens, and he can't help but feel warm when he is suddenly so cared about by others outside. "Sister~" He couldn't help but whisper. The female source master laughed, stroked his head again, and turned to leave. ”

Watching the source masters take the two of them away in a fiery flying boat, the miners were amazed again. The bearded man coughed to attract everyone's attention, and said, "Everything you have to do today is almost done, and it's not too early, so you all go back and rest, and tomorrow will make requirements and train you." ”

The group was taken by a soldier to the mine's canteen, where they had a full meal and then returned to their respective workshops. After so many days of turbulence and today's mood turmoil, everyone seemed exhausted, and almost all of them fell asleep. However, now You Haochen's mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and after the stimulation of the source power and the jade pendant, he clearly felt that something seemed to be slowly emerging in his heart, as if he was soaking in gentle spring water. With both apprehension and excitement, You Haochen lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and concentrated all his thoughts to feel his heart. Hazy, he seemed to see a small stream of bright red water like blood slowly gushing out in the darkness, and after a while, it gathered as many as a small basin, but soon the bright red water gradually became smaller, and finally the red water surface returned to calm. "Could this be the source of the legend?" You Haochen said secretly in his heart. He tried to guide the strange spring, but he had no clue, and tried many ways, but the red water remained there without waves. He gradually felt a slight tingling in his head, and quickly distracted himself from his consciousness concentrated in his heart. The hazy scene also disappeared, and You Haochen suddenly found that the sky had completely darkened, and he didn't realize that such a long time had passed...... A dreamless night.

"Dangdang~~" The sound of gongs woke up the sleeping people, and a person reluctantly opened his eyes and found that the sky was still white. Waking up early is a common occurrence for these young people from mining villages.

Not long after, everyone gathered in the square, and when they saw that the bearded man had not yet come, they began to talk in groups. Some are talking about the two people who have embarked on the path of the source master, some are talking about the source stone they are about to come into contact with, and some are simply talking about today's breakfast...... Suddenly, there was the sound of a blunt object hitting the ground, and everyone was startled when they heard it, and they all looked to the place where the sound came from, only to see a black-faced old man holding a mine chisel slowly standing up from the back of the building in front of him. He walked towards everyone step by step, and at first glance he knew that he was an experienced old miner. He glanced at everyone, shook his head and sighed to himself, and said loudly without hesitation: "What kind of crooked melons and cracked dates...... Alas, one generation is not as good as the next. ”

There was a sudden uproar below, and a young man shouted: "What is your name, old man, try it again!" The black-faced old man was not annoyed or angry when he heard this, but smiled and replied: "The old man's name is Fan Gongliang, and the people in the mine are called Fan Lao, and he has been here for more than 50 years." The young man was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the old man had misheard what he meant...... But some people were vigilant and felt that this person was a little unusual, so they stepped forward and saluted and asked, "Dare to ask Fan Lao what is the matter here?" "Well, you little guy is a little polite, the old man was entrusted by the bearded man to teach you how to mine the source ore." After speaking, he said loudly: "That bearded man told me to come over so early, I don't know where I am still dreaming, alas, it's really not as good as a generation~" After speaking, he sat directly on the ground and began to teach in the surprised eyes of everyone. This is the way for young people to make a living in the future, so naturally they dare not listen, so the more than 300 people below all closed their mouths and listened quietly......

"Purr ~ Purr ~ " A snoring sound suddenly sounded like thunder, and for a while, everyone woke up from listening and began to look for the source of the sound. You Haochen secretly screamed "not good" in his heart, and then turned around and looked, sure enough, it was the fool Ah Fu, only to see him sitting there, his head tilted to the side, still asleep. He didn't wake up when he struck the gong, but he was woken up by You Haochen and brought it by him, and now he actually fell asleep again. "Brother Afu, wake up, Brother Afu. Hao Chen screamed eagerly, worried that the bearded man would punish him if he found out. "Fool, fool. "Others also found out that it was him. "Bang~" I don't know who picked up a small stone and smashed it, and finally woke Ah Fu up. He touched the place where he had been smashed, looked around, and finally smashed his mouth and stopped sleeping. When everyone went to see the reaction of the black-faced old man, they found that he was still talking about the identification and mining of the source mine, and did not notice the following movement at all, and some people couldn't help but secretly call it "Heavenly Man". ”

It was close to noon, and the black-faced old man was still talking, and he didn't stop for a minute, just when everyone was about to collapse, a familiar beard appeared in everyone's field of vision, he came to the old man, actually bent down and said: "Fan Lao, you should rest for a while, and let the people below go to rest." The black-faced old man woke up from the lecture, glanced at the beard, and then looked at the people who were almost lying on his stomach, and shook his head: "It's only been a while, alas, it's really not as good as the generation......" The bearded man actually nodded with a smile on his face, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes." "A pug, yesterday's arrogance disappeared without a trace. You Haochen was secretly shocked in his heart: "It seems that this Fan Boss has a background, and even the bearded man who is the source master nods his head." ”

I thought that the training was very simple lasted for more than 10 months, and these days everyone either went to the metal mine to practice, or listened to Fan Lao's lectures, but in comparison, most people would choose the former. You Haochen took a leave of absence to go home halfway, the main purpose was to send the fool Ah Fu back to the village, because he barely ate or slept, and was completely unable to complete the weekly mining quota set by the beard. Naturally, the mine wouldn't let him eat rice, and he wanted to send him away, but in the end, You Haochen asked himself to complete it together with Ah Fu's indicators, so that he could stay longer.

Finally, after more than 6 months of work, Haochen made enough money. When he sent the fool back to Aunt Yang's house, he found that her hair was all white, and he hugged the fool and cried bitterly. Finally, he came to the door of his house, hesitated for a while, and pushed the door open, "Who?" There was an inquiry in the house, Xiao Yun walked out of the back room with a pair of shoes that were being made, and when he saw the person, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then threw away the shoes in his hand, walked quickly and hugged Hao Chen, both of them couldn't stop sobbing. After coming over for a while, she wiped her tears, let go of Hao Chen, looked at him seriously, and suddenly burst into tears and smiled: "Hao Chen, why have you grown so big, my mother almost didn't recognize it, it seems that the shoes I made for you just now are not enough to wear." "Yes, You Haochen has suffered a lot in the past six months, and the amount of labor is twice that of others, so he has naturally become a lot stronger. It's the age of growth and development again, and I've grown a lot taller.

Happy times are always short-lived, and they pass in a blink of an eye. You Haochen wore a cloth dress made by his mother, left her some money, and set foot on the way back to the mine.

"He's finally on that path. Xiao Yun leaned against the door frame and muttered to herself, she watched Hao Chen slowly turn into a black dot, and finally disappeared into the distance.
