This...... This qiē is too weird...... The fear in Zhou Yan's heart was overwhelming, and he didn't know what to think about in his mind.

However, after a while, Zhou Yan's nervous and flustered eyes slowly regained his calmness, and his gaze towards Qin Zheng was full of a determined look, which was a look of respect and admiration. He had already decided to follow the weak young man in front of him, the strong were respected, and he could kill the guard, he had already proved his strength, although it was not clear how high his strength was, and how he killed the guard, but at least he was far beyond himself.

The slaves on the field had quieted down, and there were more and more guards who came later, Qin Zheng swept it with his eyes, just four teams of one hundred people, each team of twenty-four people, all led by a guard wearing a brown monk's strong suit, their expressions were a little flustered, and some of them looked confused and confused. Seeing these guards appear, Qin Zheng's head nodded imperceptibly.

It seems that although the Zhang family is rich and powerful, its combat effectiveness is obviously not very good, and even its discipline and vigilance have dropped a lot, and the means of handling emergencies are not very good.

At the same time, in a luxurious building in the mine, Zhang Xuena, the mine inspector sent by the Zhang family, was frowning.

Just last night, the always peaceful King Kong Mine was inexplicably killed by one of the guards, and he was killed under his nose.

After hearing the news, the head of the Zhang family was immediately furious and issued an order that the murderer must be arrested in the shortest possible time and will not be spared.

Who dared to break into the diamond mine and kill the guard in full view? Was it an accidental mistake, or was it intentional for another purpose? Was it a precursor to a family member's struggle for power, or was it a precursor to other forces that were eyeing each other?

No one knows the answers to these questions.

Late at night.

"Who did it?" In the third floor room of a richly decorated and luxurious building, a young woman in a long white dress stood quietly in front of the window.

"Who killed the guards? Was it just an accident?Why do I always feel uneasy?" the woman frowned, and a melodious voice like a yellow bird slowly spat out from her mouth.

Day 2. Early morning.

Qin Zheng walked gloomily in the dense crowd, and the pungent rancid smell emanated from each slave, filling the air, making Qin Zheng nauseous and disgusted and couldn't help frowning, sighing dejectedly, and his brows stretched again.

He came here to find the tomb of the ancient spirit, and before there was no clue, Qin Zheng could only swallow his breath for the time being. As the so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, he will deal with these guys sooner or later.

Just as Qin Zheng walked back to the crowd, an abrupt voice sounded.

"Miss is here. Everyone knelt down to greet the young lady. The mine manager roared at the crowd and ran down the mine in a panic as he instructed the guards in various places to tidy up the slaves and maintain order.

"Kneel?" Qin Zheng frowned when he heard this, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face.

Who is Qin Zheng?

The city lord of Canglan City, the emperor in his previous life!

It is better to die standing than to live on your knees!

"Squat, don't be too obvious. Zhou Yan ran to Qin Zheng's side at some point, and most of the people had already knelt down at this time. If you stand again, the target will be too obvious, and it will definitely become a typical example of being whipped to death and then whipped. When Zhou Yan saw that Qin Zheng had been standing, he knew what he was thinking. Hurriedly ran over and pulled Qin Zheng, who looked unhappy, to squat down and explain in a low voice.

"Miss, the road is not easy to walk, you should be careful. The steward said with a flattering look to a young woman in a long white dress with a beautiful face.

"Deer Steward. How long will it take?" the young woman walked to the intersection of the mine, her gaze sweeping over the slaves who were kneeling on the ground. Her voice is very good, and there is a bit of aura in her tactfulness. fell into the ears of everyone, giving people a sense of comfort after a long drought.

"It will only take about two months to complete it. The deer manager replied with some hesitation.

"I don't like the word approximate, you should know that the head of the family deals with people who are incompetent!" Zhang Xuena was obviously very dissatisfied with the answer of the deer manager, although her face remained unchanged, everyone could hear the dissatisfaction in her tone.

"Yes, yes, the subordinates must guarantee the completion of the task within two months. The deer manager kept sweating on his forehead, and he didn't bother to wipe it, and with a bend of his knees, he hurriedly knelt down and replied.

"Well, I hope you don't live up to the trust that the Zhang family has placed in you. Zhang Xuena said lightly, pacing along the road towards the mine cave, and a group of people following behind her also followed closely.

In the dark Huangji Mountain Mine Cave, the horizontal and vertical mine tunnels form a mysterious world. Zhang Xuena retreated left and right, and got into it by herself.

Several guards next to him hesitated, and wanted to follow, but were directly forced to retreat by Zhang Xuena's sharp eyes.

Zhang Xuena walked into the pit alone, and after passing several tunnels that led straight to the ground, she stood in front of a metal iron gate.

The metal iron door emitted a thick metallic shimmer, and on both sides were a row of mysterious formations, constructing a powerful momentum.

Zhang Xuena inserted a token she was carrying into a stone platform in the formation, and the metal iron door opened with a bang.

Zhang Xuena did not hesitate, and stepped forward into the metal iron door, and at this time, she was greeted by a secluded underground space.

Around the underground space, the lights are in a salvo, illuminating the scene. Dozens of workers work on the ground.

Seeing Zhang Xuena enter, a man who looked like a leader in the underground space hurriedly trotted over, nodded at Zhang Xuena and said, "Third Miss, you are here!"

Zhang Xuena nodded lightly, looked around, and said, "How is the excavation going?"

The man's name is Chu Ran, he is a formation mage, and he has been invited by the Zhang family to work here for three years.

The ancient spirit tomb is huge and the work is cumbersome, and Chu Ran has spent a lot of effort to finally achieve some results.

Chu Ran glanced at Zhang Xuena very confidently, and said slowly: "The results are very ideal, we have made a breakthrough in the periphery of the Ancient Spirit Tomb! As long as the tomb road is excavated smoothly, we can enter the Ancient Spirit Tomb in the shortest three days!"

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the progress of the work on the side of the deer manager has been blocked, the tomb road collapsed the day before yesterday, and now he is looking for a safe place to enter again, I'm afraid it will take another two months!" Zhang Xuena spoke, her expression obviously a little unhappy.

Yes!

Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, and he said anxiously: "It will take two months? This is not good, I remember that the right to operate the mine will be changed in the next week, right?"

"Yes, but you don't have to worry about that, you just need to take your people and continue to work!" Zhang Xuena nodded, and then walked to the center of the underground square, looking at the row of things that had been cleared out on the ground.

Chu Ran introduced beside him: "Third Miss, this is a batch of ancient books, which contain a lot of information about this cultivation sect, which is extremely important!"

Zhang Xuena obviously didn't care about this, she turned her head and frowned: "Let's talk about the point!"

Chu Ran knew the character of this Zhang family's three thousand gold, and hurriedly and solemnly guided Zhang Xuena to the northernmost part of this underground space.

"Third Miss, this is the outer space of the first layer of the Ancient Spirit Tomb, please follow me. ”

Zhang Xuena followed Chu Ran into the first floor of the ancient spirit tomb, and saw a ruin-like scene around her. On the ground in front of them, a row of puppet-like objects stood silently.

When Zhang Xuena saw this, she showed a puzzled expression and said, "What is this?"

Chu Ran smiled proudly and said excitedly: "Third Miss, please take a look!"

Chu Ran clapped his hands, and then a subordinate walked in with a rabbit.

The subordinates got Chu Ran's nod and let the rabbit go. The rabbit was so frightened that he jumped forward and pounced in the direction where the puppet was standing.

In the next second, Zhang Xuena saw the movement of the originally quiet puppet group, and the puppet moved on its own, among which the puppet standing in front stretched out his right arm, and his right arm was tied with a sharp and abnormal cold light short blade, and the rabbit rushed forward in a panic, and the puppet's right arm waved, and blood splashed!

The rabbit was killed on the spot!

And the puppet, this will be calm again, standing motionless, and the eyes inlaid with gems are so weird.

Zhang Xuena couldn't help but be taken aback, revealing an incredible expression.

Chu Ran was surprised to see that Zhang Xuena was really as he expected, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Third Miss, this is a puppet refined by a secret method. I can't imagine it, this puppet has existed for thousands of years, and the energy in its body has fallen to the bottom, but it still has great lethality!"

Zhang Xuena's eyes flickered, and she suddenly said, "Catch a miner!"

Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Zhang Xuena meant, he nodded with a smile, and ordered to go down, and after a while, a sturdy mine slave was brought to the scene.

The mine slave obviously didn't know that he was about to come to a catastrophe, he looked at Zhang Xuena and Chu Ran in horror, his feet trembling.

Zhang Xuena walked up to the miner and said coldly: "You, go forward, as long as you can walk to the puppet group, I will dismiss you as a slave and return you to freedom!"

Most of the mine slaves in Huangji Mountain were dynastic prisoners, or poor people who had to mortgage themselves as slaves. As soon as this mine slave heard Zhang Xuena speak like this, although he didn't know what the other party's intentions were, he really understood.

Just walk to the opposite side of the puppet group in front of you and you'll be freed!

Thinking of this, the miner suddenly burst out with a force, his feet no longer trembled, he let out a loud shout, and rushed straight forward like a 100-meter race.

Zhang Xuena and Chu Ran suddenly widened their eyes and looked ahead.

The atmosphere was a little condensed for a while, and the two of them only felt a cold light pass by, and then the air returned to calm, and the mine slave who was still running bravely a second ago flew up with a good big head and separated from the body.

The head slammed to the ground, and the atmosphere around him was silent. (To be continued.)
