Yellow Springs is full of gold and silver, as if it is the San Francisco in some people's mouths.

Of course, this is not entirely false, but it is undoubtedly true in terms of being able to make a lot of money.

But these riches are often taken at the risk of life.

A business, if it is profitable, will inevitably cause many people to pour into it, turning the blue ocean into the red ocean.

In fact, the value of any commodity is determined by the market and marketing, even if there is a huge stock of minerals, medicinal herbs, special products, etc. in the Yellow Springs, it is impossible to really maintain the value of gold and silver mines.

Gold and silver can be mined and refined directly into the market, and they are both money and commodities themselves; The products in Huangquan are only commodities or raw materials, and if you want to enter the market, you need more layers of handling, and each layer of handling will be scraped off a layer of ointment.

Twenty percent of the fixed income went to the shogunate, and most of the remaining profits were taken by gold diggers or caravans, because the mortality rate of gold diggers in the Yellow Springs was extremely high, almost three times that of the black coal mines.

Gold diggers who can live here for more than three years can buy a single-family house in Edo with all the money, and earn a fortune for twenty or thirty years without worrying about food and clothing.

However, in addition to the normal gold digging, there are actually some out-of-the-way riches that can be fished.

The people who enter the Yellow Springs are also a treasure in themselves.

The horses, supplies, mining tools, and even each person's own belongings, including weapons and props, brought by the caravan are wealth in itself.

Some organizations that are out of the way tend to target newcomers.

There is a saying in the fishing community called the 'novice protection period', which means that some beginner anglers are easy to catch fish, and some people who have entered the industry often ...... This is also said among the gold diggers, but this line of work is far bloodier than fishing.

After all, for the sake of face, the fisherman will go to the market at most and bring a big fish home; And the gold digger can make trouble for this profit, because it is much easier to harm people than to kill demons and ghosts.

……

After a day's journey, the caravan arrived at the expected location.

As originally informed, there is a vein hidden here.

The quality of the ore produced is about good, and there are some other Huangquan specialties nearby.

The ore in the Shadow World is not something that ordinary gold diggers can take away, it is too heavy, and there are no mine carts to transport ore here, so the news of the ore vein is also a large investment in advance.

Yu Taiyin calculated an account, raised his eyebrows slightly, and shouted: "Second uncle, this time is the right one, as long as you can bring it back, not only can you easily return to the capital, but you can also earn this amount, with this money, the bank's loan can be filled." ”

The arch also showed a few rare smiles: "It's very good, but the speed should be fast and the movement should be small." ”

"It takes a few days to mine." Tan Taiyin pointed outside and said, "There is only one mountain road here, guarding the main road." ”

The two discussed the situation for a while, left a dozen guards nearby, tried not to call people to yin, and then accelerated the speed of mining and excavation.

The process was quite simple and everything went smoothly.

In more than half a day, half of the mining work has been completed.

At this time, a caravan came to the mountain pass and was stopped.

It's a gang of Tianzhu merchants.

The leader muttered a lot of things.

Yu Taiyin frowned and looked at the curry man with his head wrapped in a ball shape, turned to the translator and asked, "What did he say?" ”

"He said he was going to borrow the way." The translator turned his head and said.

"Tell him not now." Yu Taiyin said directly: "Let him take a detour, or wait." ”

There are basically no fixed rules in Huangquan, and the last thing to say is the fist.

The leader of the Tianzhu caravan listened to the interpreter's words, blew his beard dissatisfied, and continued to speak.

"He said he could pay a toll."

"Do we look like beggars? I don't need to, let them wait! ”

Naturally, the negotiations broke up unhappily.

The Tianzhu caravan camped at the mountain crossing and waited, and it seemed that it had no intention of retreating.

However, there are seven or eight people waiting on the mountain road, although there is some friction, but there is no direct conflict.

The change occurs after dark.

Suddenly, a violent sound sounded in the Yellow Spring, accompanied by a wave of shaking of the mountains.

Tan Taiyin couldn't untie his clothes when he rested at night, hurriedly got up, walked out of the tent and asked, "What happened?" ”

"Miss, the mountain road is blocked!" A guard from the caravan ran over, his face anxious: "It seems that it is a landslide caused by an earthquake, the back road is blocked, and several people are injured." ”

"Treat the wounded first."

The order was given, but just as the words fell, a quarrel was heard on another mountain road.

As soon as Taiyin walked over, he immediately heard a few shouts.

A man covered his bloody wound and shouted: "Straight lady thief, this group of Tianzhu curry guys really dare to do it!" ”

He stumbled in, and the blood flowed from the wound: "This group of Tianzhu guys just didn't have a good mind, come and grab the minerals, hurry, copy the guys!" ”

After speaking, the crowd was immediately excited.

Several of the nearby guards immediately drew their knives.

At this time, torches were also lit on the mountain road, and it seemed that the group of Tianzhu guys had also found it.

Tan Taiyin wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but he couldn't stop the group of hired gold diggers.

She's a businessman and doesn't like to use knives.

But in the Yellow Springs, it is the norm for gold diggers to draw knives and face each other in life and death.

Robbing goods is the same as robbing darts, since the darts are robbed, they will definitely be killed, and it is impossible to take the initiative to leave them alive.

These minerals and specialties have been regarded as the goods of this group of people, how can they be willing to be picked up by this group of Tianzhu guys outside?

The two sides immediately met each other on the mountain road, and the tip of the needle was against Maimang.

Bright torches and swords that reflect the light of fire.

The smell of gunpowder on both sides is strong, and it only takes a little spark to ignite.

But we don't understand each other's languages, and I'm looking for a translator.

Suddenly, a dark arrow came and pierced the head of a gold digger, who lay down on his back and died instantly.

The scene was quiet for a moment, and the next moment a fierce battle broke out.

The various weapons in the hands of Tianzhu Lao are quite peculiar, what fist blades, what scimitars, strange-shaped weapons, plus I don't know who put the smoke bombs, the scene was chaotic for a while, like a team battle in the wild area.

More than 30 people gathered in a group and fought in an uproar.

The battle lasted for about ten minutes, and more than a dozen corpses lay on the ground.

At a distance, the voice covered her lips, her pupils dilated and contracted.

This brutal death scene shocked her deeply.

Living in the safe environment of Great Xia, it was the first time she had witnessed this kind of fighting at the level of the village's entrance to the village...... Although the number is small, the degree can be called tragic.

Seemingly valuable human lives are really worthless in this rich land full of gold and silver.

Tan Taiyin finally came back to his senses and shouted, "Go back and gather people immediately, we have to leave immediately." ”

"But, but the way down the mountain is blocked."

"With explosives! Even if you lure the demons here, you must clear the way! ”

She had just given the order, and was about to walk in when she suddenly felt a force from behind her, and she leaned back, avoiding a knife that pierced through the tent, which grazed her cheeks and cut off a few hairs, and she could even see her own eyes through the blade.

The man hiding in the tent did not succeed in a single blow, but stumbled in regret, and then tore open the curtain of the tent.

Yu Taiyin was pushed behind his back, looked at the middle-aged man who had just rescued him, and shouted, "Second uncle." ”

Yu Taigong nodded, but he didn't even dare to turn sideways, but stared at the people in the tent vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "You can never be Li Sanxiang, what are you!" ”

The man holding the night battle knife grinned, wiped the blood on his face, looked at the arch of the platform and sighed: "I led you into the trap of the demons, you are not dead, your life is really big." ”

"Is that your bureau?" Yu Taiyin suddenly came to his senses: "It has nothing to do with that group of Tianzhu guys? ”

The strong man touched the skin mask on his face, and said, "Sure enough, the human skin mask of this quality is not easy to use." ”

As he spoke, he ripped off his face, threw it on the ground and stepped on it, revealing a face covered with scars, and grinned: "Tianzhu guy is stupid, you guys are not smart, you took a little effort to sell two pieces of information, I thought that I could make you fight during the day, but Tianzhu guy coaxed it...... I've got to find someone to do a show. ”

"I wanted to wait for you to fight and then come out to clean up the situation, but I didn't expect this woman to make a quick decision, I began to appreciate you, if you are my woman, I can consider leaving the life of the person here."

Yu Taiyin said indifferently: "Has a Jiangyang thief exiled here in Great Xia also begun to call himself a hero?" ”

"Hahaha, even if Lao Tzu is a wanted criminal of Jiangyang thieves, he is stronger than you, and now your lives are in Lao Tzu's hands." The swordsman's voice suddenly deepened: "Just rely on your second uncle's half-crippled body, what can you do to fight me!" ”

At this time, Tangtaiyin looked down, only to notice that the entire left hand of the Tangtai arch had already been broken, and it hung strangely on the side, leaving only the skin and flesh connected, and obviously the bones had been broken.

Taiyin's face changed, and Tai Gong said coldly: "You and I are both third-order level, if you fight to the death, you may not have any chance." ”

The wanted swordsman licked his lips: "Lao Tzu's cultivation is higher, killing you, and then killing other people is easy, and when you die, I will love your little niece well...... Of course, if you know each other and let your niece follow Lao Tzu directly, I will naturally have a way to ensure that you will find many good places in Huangquan, and when the business is bigger, and then your niece will give birth to a child for me, and the family will be very good at that time. ”

The voice of the voice trembled, thinking how could people be so shameless, and still holding the idea of getting both people and money, just seeing that face, she couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Even if the Tantai family is not a big family in Daxia, it has at least hundreds of years of history, and it is considered a famous family in the local area, and there are many matchmakers every year.

If you want to get married, there are naturally people who can marry to alleviate the family's financial crisis.

She came to Yingzhou to find a way out because of her strong nature, but what is this criminal who was forced abroad by a wanted warrant, and he deserves it?

"Fuck you." Yu Taiyin directly burst into foul language.

The swordsman was stunned, he didn't expect to hear this.

Isn't this woman from a big family?

The quality is really poor!

Scarface's expression was hideous, and he swung his knife and slashed towards the arch of the platform, and the two third-order fights, and for a while, the sand and rocks flew in the scene.

Even within the big family, a fourth-order generation of grandmasters is rare, and usually third-order confrontations are first-class level.

This scar-faced cultivation and the Taigong are actually in the same place, but they occupy a certain advantage, because he waits for work at ease and is in better condition; The Tai Gong was caught in the trap and broke a hand before, and he had to take into account the sound behind him, so he couldn't fight but fought hard, and he was shocked and retreated.

After another confrontation, the arch suppressed the fishy smell in his throat and said, "Escape, I can't hold on for too long." ”

"Second Uncle......"

"When you're gone, I'll be gone!"

Yu Taiyin gritted his teeth, turned his head and ran to the back of the mountain road.

The landslide has sealed the mountain road, which will take at least hours to clean.

But if you abandon the convoy and just take people away, it will be completely too late...... There are so many things, the other party can't transfer them for the time being, as long as they can leave Huangquan alive, they can go to ask for help, and hire a few masters at that time......

As her thoughts flowed, she heard a crisp cracking sound.

Looking back, Scarface swung out a knife aura more than eight meters long, directly knocking down the platform arch halfway up the mountain.

Now there is no barrier between the two.

Noticing Scarface looking at her, she immediately started running, not knowing how many steps she could run.

Seeing her flustered expression, Scarface didn't hurry to make a move, but followed without hurrying, weighing the knife in his hand.

Some of the servants in the caravan also wanted to be brave and protect their lords, but they were cut down to the ground one after another.

Yutaiyin ran to the mountain road sealed by falling rocks, stumbled under his feet, and fell to the ground.

"Run, why don't you keep running?" Scarface held the night battle knife, pressed the knife against her neck, and patted her face with the back of the knife: "Later, let you know what it means to survive and not to die." ”

With the victory in hand, he also had the idea of having fun.

Looking at Yu Taiyin, Scarface couldn't help but think of the woman who broke more than a dozen of his bones and destroyed half of his face in Great Xia.

In fact, the two are not similar at all.

It's just that they are all from famous families and have noble temperaments.

If it weren't for the woman at the beginning, she wouldn't have fallen to this point.

But Scarface never dared to seek revenge from the other party in his life, he knew that he was destined to have no chance in his life, as long as he dared to approach, he would be killed, and he would be killed if he took a picture.

However, it is still dare to find a meal replacement once in a while to satisfy the pervert in your heart.

Scarface smirked: "I heard that you are looking forward to Huang Qixia...... Also have a collection of her merchandise? ”

He raised his knife and said amusefully, "Give you a chance to play her." ”

Yutaiyin's shoulders trembled, and he was extremely sad and angry, wondering whether he should bite his tongue and kill himself.

At this moment, a slight cracking sound sounded.

She noticed the strange voice, and Scarface involuntarily looked sideways.

The two of them looked at the huge falling rock stuck in the road, and in the center of it, a gap suddenly broke.

Huge fissures spread along the rocks.

Boom ——!

Dust was flying, and rubble was rolling down the valley halfway down the mountainside.

Immediately, there was the sound of footsteps, rising and falling, as light as falling leaves.

After nightfall, there is a white mist in the yellow spring, and there are demons and ghosts hidden in the mountains.

...... Is it human? Is it a ghost?

Holding his breath, looking nervous.

Until a white dress came into view.

Tan Taiyin's eyes widened, as if he had seen something incredible...... How could it be him?
