Chapter 514: Just because You Haven't Seen It Doesn't Mean You Don't
Sheng Xi reminded him like this, and the more the rest of the people looked, the more they felt that the two incomplete arcs on the ground were like shoe prints.
Li Duojin's mind involuntarily sketched the picture at that time.
A monk stood next to a minecart full of black jadeite, and somehow turned all the minecart into powder.
Some of the powder was accidentally spilled, leaving this shallow shoe print on the ground.
Later, due to the movement of workers in the mine and the wind blowing from outside, the first scene was destroyed, and most of the black crystal powder that formed the shoe prints disappeared, and only a little remained in the gaps of sleepers and gravel.
If it weren't for Yan Che's wealth fan, who came up with such a thing as a sticky charm, I'm afraid no one would have found this clue.
Lu Xiang tilted his head and looked at the empty minecart: "Could it be that someone replaced the ore in the original minecart with the black jade linshi powder of a minecart, so no one knows how the ore suddenly turned into powder?" ”
Li Duojin shook his head and denied this speculation: "In order to prevent the workers from stealing from themselves, all the black jade stones mined in the mine have special marks. ”
"Some special marks are only erased after they are sold, and before that, even if the black jade is turned into powder, it can be detected in the powder."
"I've already tested that the powder found in the minecart at that time was the same thing that had been changed from the original cart of ore."
He considered all the possibilities he could consider, and when he found nothing, he had to turn to an external force.
Sheng Xi looked at the black jade lin stone that Li Duojin handed her in his hand, and asked Lu Xiang, "Fourth Senior Brother, have you ever used this magic refining weapon?" ”
Lu Xiang nodded: "The black jade umbrella I use for self-defense is made of black jade lin stone. It was very troublesome to cut it into the thickness of an umbrella, so I borrowed a few superb magic tools from Master to cut it. ”
"Is it laborious to cut with Master's best magic weapon?" Sheng Xi asked.
Lu thought: "My cultivation is not enough, every time I use it, my whole body's spiritual power will be drained." But if it was a god stage monk who came to use that magic weapon, it would be better. ”
Could it be that the destroyer already has a similar superb magic weapon in his hand?
Sheng Xi looked at Li Duojin thoughtfully.
Li Duojin gave an answer before Sheng Xi's question: "I have considered the possibility of magic weapons. ”
"At present, all the magic weapons on the market that can grind black jade lin stone into powder, even if it is just a black jade lin stone as large as a pebble, it will take a day and a night, and it is impossible to turn this car of ore into powder overnight."
Sheng Xi boldly guessed: "Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean that you haven't, maybe there is such a magic weapon that can turn all the ore into powder overnight." ”
Just like the Southeast Spirit Realm currently does not have a teleportation array that can easily transmit things, it is very troublesome to transport materials, but Gu Yishan has it.
Many high-level cultivators have a monopoly on their own secret methods and are reluctant to pass them on, resulting in a very limited dissemination of knowledge in the cultivation realm.
Li Duojin is not an arrogant person, Sheng Xi said this, he did not refute, and hummed quietly:
"If that's the case, this artifact will be of great use, and if you sell it at auction, you can make more money than staying here and destroying my ore."
Sheng Xi: "You also said that this may be your second uncle Li Youkuang trying to deal with you, maybe he will open a higher price?" ”
"Also, I'll ask someone to ask if anyone is selling similar artifacts first. If you're done reading it here, I'll take you inside again. ”
Sheng Xi helped Yan Che put away all the sticky talismans on the ground, and when he went back, he would deal with the black jade linshi powder adsorbed on it.
Afterwards, a group of people followed Li Duojin and continued to walk towards the inside of the mine.
The mine is cramped and crowded, with only a rugged path for one person to transport the ore, except for the tracks used to transport the ore.
Yuan Xian walked first, and Li Duojin followed behind him to show the way.
Sheng Xi followed, carefully observing the surroundings.
Wen Zheming, Lu Xiang and Yan Che were protected in the middle, and Xiao Liluo broke off as usual.
With every few steps, Li Duojin inlaid a night pearl in the mountain wall to illuminate it.
One person and six bears lined up and walked forward.
In the quiet corridor, except for the occasional kick of gravel rolling on the ground and making a slight sound, there was only the sound of each other's breathing.
In such a strange and depressing environment, it gives people a feeling that time has been infinitely extended.
Sheng Xi felt that they had been gone for a long time, and looked at the homemade luminous watch on his wrist and found that they had only been gone for less than half an hour.
Suddenly, Yuan Xian, who was walking in the front, stopped.
"Is this it?" He asked, pointing to a corner not far away where the Night Pearl could be illuminated.
Li Duojin poked his head out from behind him, looked at the situation in front of him, and nodded repeatedly: "This is it." ”
He stepped onto the railroad tracks, walked over Yuanxian, pointed around and introduced Sheng Xi and a few people,
"Every time I excavate, I find someone to evaluate it. It's all hard rock in the area, and we've done extra reinforcement to make it normally impossible to landslide. ”
"But when the workers were working in it that day, all of a sudden it collapsed."
At first, Li Duojin thought it was an earthquake or a monk's fighting technique, which affected his mine.
But when I explored it later, I found that the mine was the center of the earthquake.
But normally, earthquakes don't happen in this geological formation.
The cave is full of foundation monks, and even if they fight, it will not cause a collapse of this magnitude.
Li Duojin even wondered if there were some natural treasures buried in the mountains, and his mining alarmed these treasures, so there was such a change.
But after many inspections, no traces of heaven and earth treasures were found.
After all natural causes were ruled out, Li Duojin thought that it was a man-made disaster.
However, like the cart of ore that turned into powder, Li Duojin was also unable to find the remaining spiritual power here, and could not confirm that it was caused by man.
Sheng Xi waved the night pearl in his pocket, illuminating the entire cave even brighter, and carefully observed every inch of the surrounding traces.
Because it was necessary to rescue the monks who were buried inside, the first scene after the collapse had been destroyed, and Sheng Xi could only judge the situation from the remaining traces.
After injuring someone, Li Duojin was afraid that something would happen again, so he temporarily closed the mine.
There was a lot of rubble accumulating around, and Li Duojin wanted to restore the scene as much as possible to facilitate the tracking of clues, so he did not send someone to deal with it.
Sheng Xi now has a new idea: "Fourth Senior Brother, please let your puppet clean up this pile of rubble." ”
"Okay." Lu Xiang responded, calling out his puppet to move the gravel on the ground.
Li Duojin pressed the mechanism on the wall, and the sound of "buzzing" machinery was heard in the mine.
In a few moments, the empty minecart parked at the entrance of the mine drove down the railroad tracks in front of them.
Lu Xiang's puppet piled the gravel on top of the minecart and quickly cleared the landslide.
Sheng Xi carefully observed the cracked wall in front of him, staring thoughtfully at the middle that the crumbling was the worst, so much so that it formed an abnormally depressed gap in the mountain wall.
She raised her hand and threw a light punch.
The gap was a little higher than where she would normally throw her punches.
Sheng Xi beckoned Yuan Xian over: "Senior brother, you try to stand here and swing your fists." ”
Yuan Xian did so, and swung out a fist, which coincided with the gap.
Sheng Xi suddenly understood what was going on.
Li Duojin's heart and eyes told him that it was a man-made disaster, but because he could not detect the remnants of spiritual power, he had no evidence.
But what if the perpetrator didn't need spiritual power at all to accomplish these things?
