It's another sunny morning.

On Baozhi Peak, after Zhou Chun returned to his residence from the top of the mountain, the silver lightning thunder python hiding under the bed quickly climbed out and crawled straight towards him.

At this time, the silver lightning thunder python was already half a foot long, and it was the thickness of a baby's arm.

And after a few molts, its white snake skin is now gradually a little more silver, and it looks more elegant and beautiful.

With such a long silver lightning thunder python, Zhou Chun couldn't let it wrap around his body all the time and take it around, so when he usually went out, he let it stay at home.

"It's good that Xiaobaibai has grown up again."

Zhou Chun stretched out his arm and let the white snake on the ground slowly wrap around it, and then gently touched its cold snake head with his right hand and massaged it a few times.

Hiss~

The white snake spat out the snake letter, and enjoyed this gentle stroke very happily.

It was only a little over a month old, and it had no wisdom at all, only the bloodline instinct of a beast.

But Zhou Chun is not in a hurry, now that it has low intelligence, it is the best time to cultivate feelings.

When you cultivate your feelings from a young age, it will be easier to become a royal envoy when you grow up.

Why do many cultivators who practice the art of beast control like to choose those juvenile demon beast contracts?

In addition to being a good contract for young demon beasts, it is also because it is easier to cultivate the relationship between master and servant.

Otherwise, if you directly contract that kind of adult demon beast, even if you succeed, you have to often worry about whether the other party will rebel against the master when you are weak, and you have to consume divine energy to suppress the will to resist in the heart of the demon beast when the envoy is fighting.

After making love with Xiao Baibai for a while, and feeding it chopped flame rat jelly dried meat, Zhou Chuncai put it back under the bed after eating and wanted to rest, and went to the quiet room to practice the secret arts.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he had practiced the secret technique twice, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi personally came to his residence.

"Zhengchun, have you rested enough? If you've rested enough, let's go out with this seat! ”

Outside the courtyard, Zhou Daoyi opened the door and saw Zhou Chun, who was shocked behind him, smiled slightly, and directly said what he meant.

When Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately knew what he was here for, and immediately responded respectfully: "Yes, the junior obeys the order." ”

Then he left the Zhou family with Zhou Daoyi.

When he got outside, Zhou Daoyi did not release the Azure Cloud Python to take Zhou Chun away, but sacrificed a flying boat magic weapon to carry Zhou Chun to the Qing Ming and flew above the clouds.

In just one hour, they were above the pine forest.

"This is it, judging by the traces everywhere, no one has ever been here."

In the mountains and forests, Zhou Chun pointed to the entrance of the cave that he had covered and whispered.

"Then let's go, you go in with this seat."

Zhou Daoyi nodded, and as he spoke, he reached out and patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, released the Azure Cloud Python to guard it outside, and then strode into the cave.

In this way, the two entered the cave, and after coming to the place where Zhou Chun excavated the Chiyao iron ore at that time, Zhou Daoyi first released his divine sense to probe, and then sacrificed a bronze flying sword magic weapon and excavated it around.

This was the first time Zhou Chun saw a monk in the foundation building period make a move, and he was greatly shocked by the result.

I saw that the bronze flying sword magic weapon was moving around the cave like a flexible swimming dragon under Zhou Daoyi's envoy.

Where the sword blade passed, the stone wall was easily torn and shattered like tofu, like an iron plough turning over the ground, revealing a series of rolling cracks.

In less than half an hour, Zhou Daoyi's flying sword was in a hundred-zhang long cave, plowing dozens of deep and long cracks.

And through those cracks, even Zhou Chun could use his divine sense to discover the Chiyao iron ore mixed in it.

What he can find, how could Zhou Daoyi not find out.

Therefore, I soon heard Zhou Daoyi muttering to himself: "It seems that there is indeed a Chiyao iron ore vein here!" ”

But Zhou Chun didn't hear much joy from his words.

At the moment, he was also sent by the ghosts, and suddenly dared to ask, "Patriarch, you don't seem to be very happy?" ”

"Oh, why do you ask?"

Zhou Daoyi's face moved, and his eyes looked at him in surprise.

Zhou Chun was suddenly embarrassed, and couldn't help opening his mouth and said, "Well, the junior just feels, I feel that the patriarch you don't have that very happy look." ”

I didn't want Zhou Daoyi to listen to his words, but he nodded and said, "You don't feel wrong, I'm really not very happy!" ”

This next week, Chun was even more confused, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" Although the younger generation doesn't know the art of refining, they also know that Chiyao Iron is a spiritual material for refining magic weapons, even if it is not as rare as pure gold, steel and silver and other spiritual materials, but the value of a vein must be very huge! ”

"Yes, a vein, even if it is just a small vein, after it is completely mined, in terms of spirit coins, there will be at least more than 200,000 spirit coins!"

"Even if the intermediate wear and tear expenses are removed, the net income will not be less than 150,000 spirit coins!"

Zhou Daoyi sighed lightly and nodded to say the great value of this vein.

After speaking, without waiting for Zhou Chun to ask again, he smiled bitterly and waved his hand again: "But such a large amount of spirit coins is not something that the Zhou family can swallow today!" ”

"The so-called Pifu is not guilty, but he is guilty, with the current strength of the Zhou family, if he wants to swallow this vein, the final result will be to be destroyed by other forces!"

"For the local forces in Lanzhou, our Zhou family is an outsider after all, and it is impossible for them to allow such a heavy treasure of mineral veins to fall into the hands of our Zhou family!"

This next week, Chun understood, and was silent.

That's how things are meant to be, and there's never any fairness.

Even in the kind of world in his previous life, there is no reason to say that whoever discovers the vein will belong to whom.

Not to mention this world of immortal cultivation where strength is respected.

If the Zhou family is not an outsider, if it has an inextricable relationship with various local forces, with the deterrence of the family's Purple Mansion period monks, it may be possible to swallow this vein a little.

But now that the Zhou family is an outsider, how could the various forces in Lanzhou sit back and watch such a big benefit being taken by the Zhou family!

And now that the Zhou family has finally taken root and gradually gained the support of some local forces in Lanzhou, how can it be that in this case, give various forces an excuse to jointly target and destroy the Zhou family!

But if this vein can't be mined, how much more can Zhou Chun reward them for discovering this vein?

Therefore, Zhou Chun also had various thoughts flashing in his mind at the moment, and he thought of ways for his own interests.

After thinking about it like this, he looked at Zhou Daoyi and said, "Then can it be jointly mined with other forces?" Didn't our Zhou family and the Wang family, the Sun family, the Mu family, and the He family jointly hold a martial arts competition? If they join forces to mine together, several families form an alliance to fight against foreign enemies, which should be enough to keep this vein! ”

"It's not bad that you can think of that."

Zhou Daoyi glanced at him, then nodded slightly and said: "That's right, for now, this method can only be used, but whether it can succeed or not depends on whether the other families are willing or not!" ”

So after collecting some Chiyao iron ore as evidence, Zhou Daoyi completely filled in the entrance of the cave and blocked it, and then returned to Zhou's house with Zhou Chun.

And because the matter of how the ore veins should be mined has not yet been decided, the rewards for Zhou Chun and Zhou Zhengyong are naturally uncertain for the time being.

In the next three months, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi and even the Taishang elder Zhou Mingde left the family many times to run around for the mining of ore veins.

And Zhou Zhengyong's side, after preparing a rich dowry, also went to the Sun family in Jinfengling with the twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng to successfully propose marriage, and successfully married Sun Yujiao back to the Zhou family.

Zhou Chun, as a big matchmaker who single-handedly promoted the union of the two, was also sincerely thanked by the young couple, and they all sat in the top position at the wedding celebration.

More than three months later, Zhou Chun's cultivation was only two points away from breaking through to the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period.

And the Silver Lightning Thunder Python also successfully awakened the talent spell at this time and became a first-order low-grade demon beast.

At this time, the silver lightning thunder python has reached a length of one zhang and two feet, and its snake scales have taken shape, and the sword is difficult to hurt.

In order to exercise its ability, Zhou Chun no longer took the initiative to feed it at this time, but would take it to a place where there were more beasts and birds at the bottom of the mountain, and it would hunt by itself.

It is even sometimes forbidden to hunt with spells.

On this day, Zhou Chun was watching the silver lightning thunder python hunting at the bottom of Baozhi Peak, and suddenly the blue parrot "Lan Lan" of the patriarch Zhou Daoyi flew over Baozhi Peak and came to him.

"Brother Chun, the patriarch asked you to go to Pagoda Peak."

The big parrot "Lan Lan" fluttered its wings and hovered above Zhou Chun's head, loudly conveying the order of the patriarch Zhou Daoyi.

His eyes were nervously looking at the white line in the grass in the distance.

It was condescending, and naturally it could see that there was a large python hiding there.

"Got it, Lanlan, you go back and tell the patriarch, I'll go over immediately."

Zhou Chun smiled, and as he spoke, he took out a fresh wild fruit from his pocket that he hadn't eaten and threw it to the blue parrot as a reward.

Seeing this, the blue parrot immediately pounced down, grabbed the wild fruit accurately in mid-air, and then shouted to Zhou Chun: "Thank you Brother Chun, goodbye Brother Chun." ”

After saying that, he grabbed the wild fruit and left.

And looking at the departing figure of the blue parrot, Zhou Chun couldn't help but groan.

This time, the patriarch specially summoned him to Pagoda Peak, what would it be for?

Is it the result of the development of the Chiyao iron vein?

Or is it because of something else?
