Chapter Seventy-Nine: Knowing the Good and the Bad
During the rest period after that, Liu Lu, who found the spirit stone, originally wanted to rest for two hours and set off again, but the old horse, who had not found anything, asked to rest for three hours, and made it clear that in addition to resting more when he was older, there was also the old saying that he said before, sharpening the knife is not a mistake to chop wood, and finding the spirit jade depends on skill, not foot strength.
In this regard, Liu Lu also relied on the old horse, after all, the old horse is leading the way.
Three hours later, Lao Ma led Liu Lu to set off again, in Lao Ma's words, it was another good place that no one patronized, and there must be Lingyu.
Liu Lu speculated in his heart, knowing that this old man must not have any good intentions and used him as cannon fodder, but Liu Lu still didn't say anything, pretending not to know, thinking about going to see Lao Ma, anyway, whether he can do it or not depends on whether he is willing or not, maybe it is really a good place to hide spirit stones.
This time, the two didn't go far to reach their destination, a half-collapsed mine.
Looking at the collapsed stones blocking the way, only the gaps built up by the boulders can allow people to climb in, Liu Lu was speechless for a while, there is no feeling of suffocation here, obviously there is still a lot of space behind the collapse, but who knows if it is safe inside, whether it is a dead end.
"Don't say it, I'm not going in." Liu Lu spoke first.
Lao Ma glanced at Liu Lu with pity, "That's a pity, I originally wanted you to go in with me and give you a chance to find the spirit jade, since you don't want to go, then forget it." ”
"You're saying you're going in too?" Hearing Lao Ma say that he was going to go in, Liu Lu was a little dumbfounded, why didn't this old man come according to the routine, and what kind of performance did he play.
Old Ma's eyes were quite contemptuous. "What you said, I won't go in, how did my share of spiritual jade come from, it's been so many years, and that time I didn't find it personally."
This is the truth, so that Liu Lu can't disagree, Lao Ma can stay in Fengling Mountain for ten years, it is definitely not possible to rely on the pit to be abducted, think about it, in this abandoned mine cave that seems to be not dangerous, but there are accidents at any time, if you don't take risks, it must be fake, otherwise why don't those people from the White Dragon Gang come in, and these mining slaves they are looking for are all like carefully selected, aren't they all strong and strong, and they have some strength, even if they are themselves, they can't help but pinch their noses and admit it, Didn't the White Dragon Gang also fancy him as a person who could do hard work.
"Xiao Liu, here, you must always understand one thing, that is, to recognize your identity, we are all prisoners of the White Dragon Gang, we can't collect spirit jade, and we may lose our lives at any time. You don't want to think about it, where there is no risk in safety, is there still the possibility of the existence of spiritual jade, after so many years, is it your turn to pick it up, here, your life is not your own, and you still want not to take risks. ”
Liu Lu was a little silent, Lao Ma's words made him a little vigilant, the reason why he has such a big confidence, isn't it all because of the existence of Xianyi, first of all, Xianyi directly helped him get rid of the threat of the corpse insect pill, which gave him the confidence to not fake the color of the hairy monkey, otherwise the threat of the corpse insect pill alone can directly make him become the gray grandson of the hairy monkey, otherwise there are so many masters of all walks of life on Fengling Mountain, how can they endure that monkey-like guy, stay here and be enslaved, so it seems that he is really standing and watching the excitement, and he doesn't dislike his back pain.
Besides, those things he relied on, the confidence in the Qingling Ring, the True Qi Pill and the Root Bone Pill, which one didn't need Xianyi's help.
Further afield, not to mention Xianyi's great kindness that directly saved his life at the bottom of the cliff, that is, he had provoked the White Dragon Gang many times before, and he could escape from the hands of the White Dragon Gang many times, which time was not relying on Xianyi's help, or because of Xianyi's reasons, otherwise he would have been able to escape again and again, if it weren't for all this, his little life would have been handed over to the White Dragon Gang long ago.
After a long time, he took all this for granted, and almost couldn't see himself clearly, mistakenly thinking that with his second-rate strength, he would be able to confront the White Dragon Gang, if the White Dragon Gang was really so easy to deal with, Chen Ji's big family power would not have declined to this point, and Mu Ning's side would not have become a mining slave.
And he, at this point now, still has a small life, not only is he not grateful, but he also complains that Xian Yi did not try his best to help him at the critical moment.
Liu Lu was silent for a long time before he whispered, "It's really a little bit unclear." ”
Lao Ma saw that Liu Lu was stunned, thinking that Liu Lu was still entangled and couldn't make up his mind, so he continued to persuade him: "Xiao Liu, this is also the first time I have entered here, and I will definitely be able to gain a lot in it, and I am also willing to give you such a good opportunity because you are a good young man." ”
Liu Lu shook his head, it was useless to think too much, keep all this in mind, and the others had to fight by themselves.
"In that case, I can't live up to your kindness."
Liu Lu followed the footsteps of the old horse, the two squeezed through the collapsed stone crack, and after entering the back of the mine, they found that the environment inside was not so bad, and the section in front of it collapsed, and the scattered stones and mud in the passage basically did not affect the passage of the two.
If there is no guidance from Xianyi, Liu Lu really has no idea how to find the spirit stone, and he may only have to try his luck with a hammer in the east and a hoe in the west.
Different from Liu Lu's blind man touching the elephant, the old horse is much more professional, first with his hand against the rock wall, as if he is sensing something with his heart, and then grabs a handful of soil and rubs it in his hand, and then puts it under his nose to smell it, or uses a small hoe to hit the stone a few times, back and forth in different places to dig and dig, looking at the heart is extremely devoted.
For everything, Liu Lu didn't mean to laugh at all, the spirit stone is not a roadside stone, it will not lie naked and lie there to be picked up, the mine slaves go in and out of the mine year after year, not that they have the means to explore the spirit stone, but all rely on picking up some residues on the road dug out by the predecessors, but this is it, it is not easy to find the spirit stone, otherwise, if you want to explore the spirit stone in such a large mountain as Fengling Mountain, not to mention the White Dragon Gang, it is the Liuyun Sect on the Cutting Cloud Peak, I am afraid that it is also powerless, and there is no effective means, And judging from the dense mine caves in Fengling Mountain, the people who excavated it at the beginning were not completely sure.
"Xiao Liu, come here."
After Liu Lu passed, the old horse pointed to the rock wall in front of him and gestured. "From here, dig two feet in and look for it."
Lao Ma did not give a specific location, the place where Liu Lu was asked to dig was four or five feet wide, as for the height, according to the old horse's meaning, he could dig as high as he could.
"This old boy is a bit interesting, the realm is a mess, but this is a bit of a means to find spirit stones."
After hearing Xianyi's voice, Liu Lu, who was originally a little suspicious in his heart, dug harder.
"Boy, are you stupid, you only use brute force and don't use your brain." Xianyi really couldn't stand it.
Liu Lu waved the small hoe is a burst of fierce planing, the strength is not small, the small hoe is also knocked straight to the spark, the soil and stones in the mine are splashed, but it is not dug to the punctual point, if it goes on like this, Liu Lu is afraid that he will have to dig up more than half of the area demarcated by the old horse to find the spirit stone.
Liu Lu was originally in full swing, but when he heard Xianyi's words, he was immediately angry, didn't this discourage his enthusiasm!
After thinking about it, I felt that I was too stupid, and my previous consciousness was also left behind, not that he was not motivated, but only knew that he relied on Xianyi, the gap was too big, he was originally a person who couldn't cross the river by touching the stones, but since he had a temporary bridge, so that he had the opportunity to cross the river, why bother to embarrass himself, it was in vain, he had to rely on himself to touch the stones, isn't there a problem with his head, there are ready-made thighs that don't hug, there are shortcuts that don't go, and he has to have a tendon to prove his ability, which is purely roundabout and stupid.
Under Xianyi's guidance, Liu Lusan dug out a spirit stone in two clicks.
Liu Lu shook the spirit stone in his hand, "Old horse." ”
The old horse, who was still in the demarcated area in front, saw that Liu Lu had dug out the spirit jade so quickly, and immediately showed joy, and walked over to take it from Liu Lu's hand.
"Yes, so lucky."
Lao Ma looked at Liu Lu and had already unearthed the spirit jade after only a few diggings, leaving a large area that had not moved, maybe there would be a spirit jade, so he told Liu Lu to continue digging.
"A piece of spirit jade has already been produced, and there may be others, you dig up all of this place and take a look."
Liu Lu already knew from Xianyi that there was only one spirit stone in this place, and he didn't want to waste his efforts, but it was not easy to tell Lao Ma clearly, so he rolled his eyes and had another way.
"Old horse, in my opinion, there is only this piece of spiritual jade here, and it is just a waste of effort to dig it again."
Lao Ma glared, this kid's old-fashioned appearance is really a bit arrogant, and even a little underbeaten, if it weren't for the fact that there are still many places to summon Liu Lu in the back, Lao Ma would have slapped him a long time ago.
"Xiao Liu, it's not easy to find a place with spiritual jade, don't waste such a good opportunity. This kind of thing we do is like planting crops, eating a good year in a bad year, accumulating more when there is more, and when there is no harvest, we will not starve to death. ”
