Five minutes later.

Under Qiao Yuanshan's almost stagnant gaze, Li Yu destroyed the fourteen-headed skeleton monsters.

Among them, the battle took a total of half a minute, and it took one minute to rush to the fourteen skeleton monsters respectively.

With three and a half minutes remaining, he searches for the loot left behind by the skeleton monster's "self-immolation".

I have to say, he was lucky.

I actually found a star crystal from inside.

It's still an authentic star crystal.

"Star Crystal is a global hard currency, you have a channel to sell it, right?"

Li Yi came to Qiao Yuanshan's side.

And Qiao Yuanshan ......

Until now, there has been no reaction.

Hearing Li Yan's inquiry, he not only didn't answer immediately, but couldn't help but ask: "Li Wusheng...... You...... Are you an advanced star refiner? ”

"It's not."

Li Yan replied: "The difference between a star refiner and a martial artist is still obvious, ordinary people can't sense it clearly, can't you sense it as a martial saint?" ”

He said: "I'm just a special martial artist who has gone a little farther on the path of the Martial Saint and has a little talent. ”

Gifted!?

Massacre!?

Okukaigawa!?

Tyrone!?

Wang Liancheng!?

Qiao Yuanshan suddenly thought of these names in his mind.

Although Dayue Land has almost lost contact with the outside world, as a top master under the lord of Xiangye City, Qiao Yuanshan is not ignorant of the outside world.

Although they have greatly delayed the acquisition of news, he has heard of the battle of the century, which has spread to every corner of the world.

is also no stranger to the "gifted" and other sayings about peerless martial saints.

It's just that......

Peerless Martial Saint, is it so strong?

Maybe they fought for their lives, and they did kill a medium-sized monster comparable to a formal star refiner, but in any case, they couldn't do it as lightly as the Li Wusheng in front of them, right?

Or......

The martial arts in the land of Otsuki are already behind the times?

But......

Li Wei obviously didn't intend to continue to explain, and he didn't dare to ask too much.

Such a powerful martial saint that is so terrifying that it is directly catching up with high-level star refiners......

It already has the power to overturn the entire bay leaf collar.

Li Yi glanced at the tragic situation in Ginkgo Village......

He had already tested the strength of the skeleton monster, and he had lost the meaning of going deeper into the ancient battlefield of the orcs.

"Let's go back together."

Li said.

"Yes."

Qiao Yuanshan hurriedly agreed.

At this time, he seemed to remember Li Yan's inquiry to him just now, and hurriedly replied: "Li Wusheng, the Great Merchants and the Empire have special acquisition stations in several big cities in the Molong Kingdom, we can take some precious materials and exchange them for what they need, and Xingjing is the type with the highest exchange value!" ”

He glanced at the object in Li Yan's hand: "A genuine star crystal is worth three million imperial gold dollars or six million great merchant coins. ”

"Three million, six million......"

Li Yi heard this offer and frowned.

The ratio of the Great Shang currency to the Tian Yuan currency is similar, and the exchange rate between the Imperial Gold Yuan and the Great Shang is close to 1:2, but regardless of the currency, their purchase price is still much lower than the market price.

For a moment, Li Yi didn't waste any more energy.

It's just a foreign thing.

With his current ability, it is not difficult to get some money.

"Sell it for me, then buy some supplies, and I'll give you a list when the time comes."

Li Yi threw Xingjing away.

"I'm going to sell?"

Qiao Yuanshan hurriedly took the star crystal and said at the same time: "This ...... This is a genuine star crystal worth three million Imperial Gold Dollars! ”

In this land, three million imperial gold dollars are enough to buy the life of a martial saint!

"Go ahead."

Li didn't explain much.

Planning to practice for a period of time in Dayue, it is not appropriate to stay in Wen Yusheng's manor for nothing after all.

Soon, the vehicle returned.

It was more than four hours of bumpy rides.

However, when entering Xiangye City, Li Yan stopped the car in front of an adobe house.

Seeing that someone was coming, it was still a person in the car, and two children, a man and a woman, who were originally playing in front of the house, ran into the room one after another.

After a while, I saw a man in full clothes and pants walking out of it.

However, when they saw Qiao Yuanshan walking with Li Yan, they hurriedly saluted respectfully: "Teacher Qiao." ”

Qiao Yuanshan glanced at him, but he was not impressed.

The man hurriedly explained, "Eight years ago, I listened to your martial arts class at the Xiangye Conference Hall. ”

Qiao Yuanshan nodded.

When they first arrived at Xiangye Ling, they really intended to promote martial arts so that the people of Xiangye Ling could be self-reliant and self-reliant, so they deliberately taught martial arts openly at the venue of Xiangye City.

But later they realized that the first thing to be solved by Xiangye Ling was the problem of food and clothing for everyone, they couldn't eat enough, they couldn't keep up with nutrition, and forcibly practicing martial arts would only waste their bodies.

As a result, martial arts instruction, which had lasted for three months, had to be suspended.

It's a pity that the problem of food and clothing is ......

The high taxes apportioned above made it impossible for the lord to completely solve it after nine years of hard work.

Especially five years ago, two years ago, the tax officer saw that the spirit of the people of Xiangye City had improved significantly, and the tax amount was increased again.

"Yesterday, I took a set of clothes from your house for special reasons."

Li Yan sighed and took out a stack of gold yuan from his body: "This is compensation for you." ”

When the man saw the stack of gold dollars that Li Yu took out, his eyes suddenly lit up.

However, his gaze stayed on Li Jian and Qiao Yuanshan for a moment, and he quickly made a decision in his heart, and quickly bent down: "It is Meng Ren's honor that that set of clothes can be favored by adults. ”

Qiao Yuanshan, who was on the side, saw it and said in a deep voice: "If you take it, you will take it." ”

"Teacher Qiao is angry."

Meng Ren bent his waist very low: "I want to implore your lord to accept my son Meng Yang as a servant, and let him follow you and serve from now on......"

"Bold!"

Before Meng Ren finished speaking, Qiao Yuanshan had already snorted.

He said to Li Yan: "Don't pay attention to the words of these people, otherwise, as soon as they have the opportunity, they will gain an inch." ”

After speaking, he turned to Meng Ren again: "Don't say that it's just a trivial matter of borrowing your clothes, no matter how big it is, if you dare to blackmail Entu to repay it, it will be in vain for me to lead the people of Xiangye, and if you dare to talk nonsense, I will directly expel you from the country!" ”

Meng Ren was so frightened that he knelt down, and at the same time, in horror, he pulled the sleeves of his arms apart, and the top ......

There was a blackened wound, and the black qi had penetrated along the wound towards the body.

Seeing this wound, Qiao Yuanshan's face suddenly changed: "Dead air? You were wounded by a living corpse? ”

Then he said: "No, you don't look like a martial artist at all, if you encounter a living corpse, how can you have a chance to live?" ”

"It was a search for ore that was scratched by the blood of the corpse......"

Meng Ren's eyes revealed sorrow, but more despair.

"Search for ore ......"

When Qiao Yuanshan heard this, he couldn't help but be silent.

The black gold mining area is the largest mining area left over from the Otsuki period, and the interior extends in all directions.

During the turbulent period of that year, many Dayue soldiers retreated to the mining area under the pursuit of the star refiners, soldiers and miners, and I don't know how many people died inside.

However, due to the suddenness of the attack of the Star Refiners, many mineral deposits in the mining area were too late to be transferred, so that there were often people in the Xiangye Territory and several surrounding territories who went deep into it, wanting to search for bronze ore, hematite, black iron ore, Mithril ore, and Adamantite Mine, in order to make a fortune.

Although over time, the soldiers and miners who died inside, as well as the people who later went deep into it to snatch the ownerless ore, were eroded by the star power and transformed into living corpses and demons, and the mining area became the most dangerous place to the surrounding territories, there are still countless people who risk their lives to search for ore and even dig for mineral deposits.

Not to mention the other territories, hundreds of people die in the Lemon Leaf Collar alone every year.

But......

A piece of black iron ore of qualified purity can be sold for thousands of imperial gold dollars, and with this high income, it is worth risking the lives of countless people to go forward.

Meng Yang's mother died of illness three years ago, and his grandparents also died in the turmoil nine years ago, I died, they ...... It's impossible to live......"

Meng Ren kowtowed for a while: "I beg my lord to take them in......"

"Okay, Lord Lord will not give up any of his people, I will apply for the subsistence allowance for you......"

Qiao Yuanshan said in a deep voice.

"You let your son be my servant, what about your daughter?"

Li said.

He had just seen that there were two small children in the yard.

Boys are around 10 years old, and girls are 5 or 6 years old.

In the face of Li Yan's inquiry, Meng Ren opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but after all, he trembled, lowered his head, and didn't even dare to look inside the house.

"Contaminated with death, can't it be cured?"

Li Yu glanced at Qiao Yuanshan.

"It's just a wound, and cutting off your hand should save your life...... But the dead air penetrates deep into the body......"

Qiao Yuanshan shook his head as he spoke: "It is said that ...... Only the top star refiners can take action to remove the dead air......"

Top Star Refiner!

Only some of the most powerful warlords in the land of Great Moon have top-level star refiners, and most of them are only high-level star refiners.

A small lord in the sphere of influence of a warlord like Xiangye Leader doesn't even have a star refiner, and the strongest force is estimated to be two or three martial saints.

Of course, due to the extreme shortage of Star Refiners in the Great Moon, six hundred guns were more intimidating than two or three Martial Saints.

Qiao Yuanshan said, sighing: "Since I know about this matter, I can't ignore it, I will inform the lord, and the relief department will raise the two of them." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Qiao, thank you, Mr. Qiao......"

Meng Ren kowtowed again and again, crying with joy.

"Martial artists don't dare to go to the black gold mining area, who will die if you don't die? The two children who were also killed were orphaned! ”

Qiao Yuanshan hates that iron does not make steel.

Meng Yang...... He's very talented...... I...... I really don't want him to be like me...... There is nothing to be done in this life......"

Meng Ren's voice trembled.

When Qiao Yuanshan heard this, he had to sigh.

At the end of the day, the bay leaf collar is too poor.

This martial saint seems to have seen too much of this kind of thing, so he didn't say anything more, beckoned Li Yi, and got into the car.

The group successfully returned to the manor of Lord Wen Yusheng.
