As Cai Min went deeper, he faintly began to hear the sound of someone talking, the sound was many and mixed, like a lot of people.

At this time, the tunnel that had been extending came to an end, but there was a door on the side, Cai Min pushed the door open, only to hear the faint sound just now, which suddenly magnified dozens of times.

Following Cai Min into the door, I saw a street about six or seven meters wide, and many people on both sides of the street were setting up stalls and shouting.

Although the light here is not as bright as the outside world, it is also clear, and it seems to use some kind of light refraction to direct the natural light from the outside world to the ground.

Chu Yuan found that there were some lenses hanging above the dungeon, which refracted the sun's rays into a pillar of light, and finally shone on a diffuse mirror.

"It's a dungeon." Cai Min explained: "The laborers live underground, and our rebels are also hiding in this underground city. ”

Walking through the crowd, Chu Yuan found that most of the people here were dressed in tatters, some of them were still unclothed, and they didn't care about their private parts being exposed at will.

These people seem to be beggars, or outcasts.

"The homeless people are not allowed to appear on Flower Island, so they all rushed here." Cai Min looked at those people with a sympathetic look and said.

These people were lying on the ground in twos and threes, even if the crowd walked by, they didn't care, and after walking for a while, Chu Yuan saw several piles.

I thought, "If these people have hands and feet, can't they be self-reliant?" ”

"Hey, they were forced here because they couldn't afford the harsh taxes." Cai Min looked at Chu Yuan and said, "Do you know how many spirit stones those miscellaneous people of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance need to cultivate? The fixed amount of tax paid each year is already unaffordable for most people, and sometimes even increases. ”

Chu Yuan didn't know much about the distribution of power in the Ethereal Sea, he had heard Shi Zhu say when he was on Liufang Island before that this side belonged to the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Pole Gate, but what was going on with this Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance?

"You also know that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is a world government formed by the union of seventy-two top-level sects, and their demand for spirit stones is as insatiable as gluttonous demand for food."

"Under the dictatorship of these people, ordinary people who could have been self-sufficient have toiled around because they have to collect spirit stones that they can't use."

Hearing Cai Min say this, Chu Yuan thought to himself: "It seems that this world is still dominated by monks. ”

It is not difficult to understand that the monk uses spiritual power to power energy weapons, and the damage caused is much greater than that of ordinary people using demon pills.

Ordinary monks have not learned exercises or martial arts, and their spiritual power can only play a role in strengthening their bodies and prolonging their lives.

This kind of monks are usually pure spirit roots, and there are not even double spirit root monks, which shows that the restrictions on monks in the ethereal sea are also very strict.

Chu Yuan had secretly observed that as long as there were spiritual power fluctuations on his body, all of them were pure spiritual root cultivators, which Zhao Jiujiu also discovered.

Because of this, the number of monks is not large, coupled with the strict control of the exercises by the upper echelons of the Xiuzhen Sect, resulting in low-level monks not being able to possess exercises and martial arts, so that these monks do not have much advantage in front of ordinary mortals.

But there are also people who have seen the horror of monks, such as Cai Min, who once saw the high-level monks of the Tianji Gate attack with spells, and the power is not smaller than that of energy weapons, but the attack range is wider and more accurate.

"For us ordinary people, the spirit stone is useless, but we have to pay for it, this is simply exploitation." Cai Min's righteous indignation made Chu Yuan feel a little moved and sympathetic for the displaced people here.

In Kyushu, monks and mortals coexist, but there is not much communication with each other, mortals live mortal lives, and monks live monks' lives, often without interfering with each other.

But this ethereal sea, because the chaotic aura is violent, there is no heaven and earth aura that can be directly absorbed, and the monk can only rely on the spirit stone to absorb the spiritual power, but his personal ability is limited, and the spirit stone that can be harvested is also limited, so he wants ordinary people to help find it.

At first, the relationship between the monks and ordinary people was still a cooperative relationship, and the two traded to each other to take what they needed, but later it became the monks blindly demanding, legalizing this behavior and turning the spirit stone into a universal currency.

This makes the entire Ethereal Sea of people have to run for the spirit stone.

"Indeed!" When Chu Yuan was on Liufang Island before, he felt that Shi Zhu was very worried about handing over the spirit stone, and saw that Xu Shijie and the others were willing to risk their lives to rob the spirit stone mine, if it wasn't for the sake of living a decent life, who would be willing to do this.

However, at this moment, these homeless people lying in the dungeon, did these people choose to lie down? Or is there something else?

Seeming to see Chu Yuan's doubts, Cai Min said: "These displaced people originally went to work in the mining area, but they were sick and could no longer continue to work. ”

Chu Yuan found that these people's breathing was weak, and their faces were extremely ugly, which must have been as Cai Min said.

"If you are sick because of work, why is there no one in charge of healing?" Zhao Jiujiu suddenly spoke.

Cai Min shook his head and said, "Instead of spending money to see a doctor for these laborers, it is better to drive them away directly, which saves worry and effort." Besides, there are so many people in the Ethereal Sea, there is no shortage of labor, and if there is no labor, it is good to grab it. ”

"Where to grab it?" Chu Yuan was a little puzzled.

"Of course, you can't rob it openly, these jobs are all operated by an underground organization, secretly buying and selling people." When Cai Min said this, her face was full of resentment, as if she was the one who was sold.

"Every year, many people mysteriously disappear, most of them are kidnapped by people from this underground organization, and then sent to other realms to work as coolies."

"It's too much." Zhao Jiujiu said suddenly.

Chu Yuan knew that Zhao Jiujiu's sympathy was overflowing, but compared to the cruelty of the cultivation realm, what was this?

In Kyushu, it is not too much for monks to draw their swords against each other at the slightest disagreement, and people die every day because of it.

It can only be said that there is evil everywhere, but at the same time there is goodness.

Chu Yuan is not a philosopher, he seems to see these things very thoroughly, but from the perspective of a bystander, he is much more rational than others.

Cai Min looked at Zhao Jiujiu and said with a smile: "Yes, it's too much, so we set up a resistance army, which has members all over the world, and as long as the time is right, we will resist and overthrow these bastards." ”

"Well, it has to be overturned." Zhao Jiujiu seems to have been brainwashed.

Or when you see those poor homeless people, you feel angry.

"Senior brother, what do you think?"

"Don't feel it, just think about it!"

Zhao Jiujiu was amused, and the haze on his original face dissipated.

followed Cai Min for a while, walked through the downtown area, and then came to a secluded alley and entered a lonely courtyard.

Chu Yuan felt that this dungeon was so big, and he didn't know how many years it had been developed to have such a scale?

"This was originally a spiritual mine, and it was slowly mined, and a dungeon was formed." Cai Min said and pushed open the door of the small courtyard.
