Chapter 31: An Unsmooth Day
Li Tian walked into the same boat and waited in line to enter the mine to dig spirit stones, and at the same time looked at the mountaintop mine cave where he might work for a long time, only to see that there were many Qingxia Sect disciples guarding him, including many elite disciples of the inner sect who practiced and meditated on the spot.
Inner disciples are elite personnel selected from among the outer disciples, each of whom has a high cultivation level and excellent potential, and receives a large amount of spirit stone pills that the outer disciples cannot imagine to strengthen their cultivation, so the inner disciples often look down on the outer disciples.
Their clothes are much more luxurious than the robes of the outer disciples, which makes people think that the princess of the mortal world has come out, and they are often the focus of everyone's attention in the crowd.
Most of the mine guard disciples are the third-generation disciples of the enlightenment and agility periods, and there are a few second-generation disciples who wear magic weapon armor and are in charge of the second-generation cultivators who have entered the spirituality period, and the cultivators who have entered the spirituality period have been able to refine various rare materials to make flying swords and magic weapons, while many people choose to refine talisman armor that can be hidden in the body.
Interestingly, the second-generation outer disciples who cultivated to the stage of spiritual silence rarely refined the talisman armor, and most of them wore a white-clothed Taoist robe that would never get dirty, which seemed more pure than the third-generation disciples.
Seeing the silent competition between the inner door and the outer door, he couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart, whether it is on the earth or in the mythical world, Chinese people like infighting.
After waiting in line for a quarter of an hour, I saw a team of three generations of disciples slowly walking out of the mine, they had dug for a month or even three months of spirit stones, and they had more or less harvested some spirit stones, and everyone's faces were full of satisfaction after being tired.
The person who came out opened the storage bag to the disciples of the mine guards, poured all the spirit stones dug up in it on the table, and someone began to record the number of spirit stones allocated, and after pulling out the share of spirit stones to be handed over to the sect, he put the rest back into the storage bag.
Before returning the storage bag to the original owner, the guard disciple took out a purple creature in the shape of a rat and let it sniff the team that had just come out of the hole one by one.
The disciples who came out of the cave got tired and got on the flying boat and left, and Li Tian's team walked towards the mine under the leadership of a guard disciple, and this disciple explained the rules in the spirit mine as he walked.
"The spirit mine is the important place of the sect, you can only mine in the designated place, and there will be a special person to take care of it, don't think about hiding the spirit stone in private. ”
"The purple-haired spirit mouse just now has a natural sense of spirit stones, no matter where you hide the spirit stones, it will smell them, once the sect finds out that there are any private spirit stones out of the cave, you will be detained in the mine for the rest of your life to do hard labor. Don't forget ......"
The group walked for a long time in the mine tunnel, and there were many spiritual stone henge mining lamps on the cave wall that would never be extinguished, and only a little spiritual stone scraps could be lit.
Li Tian saw that there were disciples mining everywhere, and there were mining disciples watching next to him, and the entire mine cave had been extending to the bottom of the mountain, and he felt that the tunnel was like there was no end.
The team walked for several hours before stopping at the very depths of the mine, and the guard disciple instructed, "This is your place of work, now you can take out your tools to mine, if you are tired, meditate and practice, and I will take you out of the cave in a month." ”
Li Tian saw his fellow disciples take out the mountain-opening tools from the storage bag to mine, and immediately injected spiritual power into the storage bag that the middle-aged man gave him, only to see that there were only a few rusty shovels inside, as well as some water bags and small bottles.
He was grateful to the middle-aged man for his kind gift, and he didn't have time to think about what was in the small bottle, so he took out the shovel and began to dig the wall of the mine, and for a while the whole section of the mine resounded with a ding-ding-ding-ding-ding knocking sound.
The walls of the cave are extremely hard, and it is difficult to dig hard but it is difficult to hit large rocks, and the guards and disciples on the side have found a more secluded place to meditate and cultivate, and constantly enhancing their strength is the eternal theme of cultivators.
After working for several hours, some disciples stopped meditating and recuperated, and Li Tian, who was not using the tools well, was tired and sweating profusely, and at the same time felt a rumbling hunger protest in his stomach, only then did he realize that he had not prepared food.
When he was wondering if he had to leave the mine, he noticed that someone on the side took out the fragrant pill from the storage bag and swallowed it in one gulp, as if he had eaten a full banquet of the Manchu Han with a satisfied expression, and then drank some water and meditated on the spot.
Li Tian saw that the other disciples took out the pill from the storage bag and swallowed it, and couldn't help but ask the person beside him, "May I ask Senior Brother, what kind of pill did you eat just now, and I forgot to bring dry food when I came to mine for the first time, and I want to borrow some emergency from you." ”
The disciple who was meditating next to him was not of high status, and he felt very embarrassed to be called a senior brother, so he patiently explained, "This is the Bigu Pill, you don't need to eat for three days if you eat one, and the cultivators all eat this pill, and they don't bring dry food." ”
After Li Tiandao thanked him, the other party closed his eyes and meditated, and then opened the storage bag to find that kind of small bottle, and when he opened it, he found that it was indeed the Bigu Pill eaten by the cultivators, and he couldn't help but be even more grateful to the middle-aged man.
He swallowed a pill and found that there was no hunger again, and his body was warm and full of strength, and he didn't want to meditate when he was happy, so he picked up a tool and dug the cave wall alone.
The other disciples frowned and looked at Li Tian, their cultivation was not high and they still maintained their original living habits, they had to meditate and rest when they were tired, and if they were in the sect, they would lie on the bed and sleep.
The guard disciple still said loudly, "Senior disciple doesn't have to work so himself, meditate and rest with others, don't miss mining tomorrow." ”
Li Tian turned around and saw the dissatisfied eyes of the others, so he had to withdraw his tools and said, "It's so good, I won't affect everyone if I meditate." ”
The guard disciple said with a smile, "It's for your own good to meditate at this time, after all, cultivators who cultivated before the enlightenment period need to sleep, if you still have the strength to go deeper to mine, as long as you don't miss tomorrow's work." ”
Li Tian came to the mine just to dig the spirit stone, and he didn't feel that he was very tired, so he immediately thanked, "Xie Lu Xie Senior Brother pointed out, I'll go and dig again." ”
He turned and walked deeper into the mine, and when he turned the corner, he saw another fork in the road and walked in, there were only a few spirit stone mine lamps inside, and the deeper part was completely dark.
I couldn't see Li Tianhou's guard disciple with a sneering look on his face, and he said secretly in his heart, "I don't know how to teach a newcomer, do you really think that you can practice to the ascension if you get the spirit stone, I have seen too many people who are arrogant but have a mediocre posture, and they are not all idle in the end." ”
He meditated for a long time and didn't see Li Tian come back, and he began to worry about whether this newcomer would get lost, for tens of thousands of years, countless disciples of the sect had dug up the spiritual ore criss-crossed and extremely deep, and even he could only recognize a fixed area.
The more the guard disciple thought about it, the more uneasy he became, so he had to stop meditating and look for the depths of the mine, and after searching for several forked mines under his management, he didn't find Li Tian, and immediately turned back anxiously to report to the upper part of the mine.
......
When Li Tian walked into this remote mine, he found that there was no spirit stone lamp in front of him, so he unceremoniously took one from the wall and used it, not expecting to really dig up the spirit stone, it was just a kind of exploration psychology.
He walked forward with the lamp for a few more moments, and suddenly stopped, because in front of him was a huge black cavern, and the sound of the whirring wind sounded, which showed that the underground space in front of him was very large.
Li Tian stretched out the spirit stone lamp but found that it could not illuminate the thick darkness, knowing that there must be a huge natural hole in front of him, he was ready to turn around and go back to find other places to mine, and there would be absolutely no spirit stones to dig here.
However, he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the hollow behind him, and looked inside in curiosity, but the spirit stone lamp couldn't shine far anyway, so he could only vaguely feel that something was moving in the dark.
"Collapse Collapse ......"
A sound like a bullet flower sounded almost faintly, Li Tian was alert and wanted to leave, but a wet sticky white rope suddenly flew and wrapped around the arm of the lantern, and before he could react, the whole person was quickly pulled into the depths of the black hole.
He quickly summoned the holy sword and armor, and with a flick of his backhand, he cut the large rope wrapped around his arm, but at this time, his body was far away from the hole just now, and he fell backwards without pulling and fell into the dark depths with no end in sight.
The light of the spirit stone lamp could illuminate the surrounding area within two meters, so in the fall, you could see countless large white rope nets covered with dust and tatters, on which were wrapped with human dried corpses, and more unknown bird-like creatures were horrified.
"Squeak Squeak......"
During the fall, a large white rope flew over, and finally one stuck to Li Tian's waist, and when he fell, he was suddenly pulled up by a fierce force.
He didn't struggle this time and let the big rope drag towards the lun, carrying the spirit stone lamp to see what was grabbing him, and finally saw a huge figure faintly pulling the big rope upward.
The speed of the big rope slowed down, and it seemed that the thing at that end was a little afraid of the spirit stone light, but the upward momentum had not stopped.
Li Tian finally got closer and closer to the thing that he had been reluctant to enter the light, and first came out with a pair of huge insect feet that played with a big rope, and then a compound mouth with several fangs staggered and biting, and suddenly remembered an animal on the earth.
Then a row of round eyes the size of tires entered the light, and there were many smaller eyes staring at Li Tian, the fluffy green hair looked extremely disgusting, it was actually a giant spider that had expanded to the size of a building.
The big spider carefully wrapped the thick spider silk around Li Tian with its two forelegs, trying to wrap him up like any other prey and eat it slowly, all its eyes were shining with excitement, excited by the sudden arrival of today's delicious food.
Li Tian had already seen what he was grabbing, and the sticky cobwebs would not be used by humans to climb, so he immediately swung his sword to cut the cobwebs on his body when the two spider feet were entangled, but the big spider, who was extremely careful, was frightened and let go of his feet and retreated.
He suddenly lost any pulling force and fell down rapidly, and hurriedly threw the spirit stone lamp in his hand to the bottom of the lu, only to see that the light was getting smaller and darker and had not yet landed, and his heart couldn't help but become anxious.
Fortunately, during the fall, the abandoned large spider web was constantly encountered, which greatly slowed down the force of the fall, but the body was constantly changed and bounced into various postures.
If Li Tian hadn't been specially trained to stay awake, he would definitely be unconscious now, and now he could only subconsciously grasp the holy sword.
"Poof"
I don't know how long it took him to fall into the thick soft mud all of a sudden, and on the side was the spirit stone mining lamp that only showed a little bit of his body in the soft mud, emitting a faint light that shone less than half a meter away, and he seemed to be tightly wrapped in darkness that he couldn't see his fingers.
Li Tian only felt that his chest and abdomen were about to be torn apart, as if he had been lying in the soft mud to rest, but reason forced him to reach out and touch the hilt of the holy sword and clench it, and then try to sit up.
He took a big breath of air to calm the pain in his chest, but there was a rancid smell everywhere, and inhaling it would only make his head dizzy.
"Collapse Collapse ......"
Before Li Tian could recover, he suddenly heard the sound above his head, and hurriedly struggled to dig out the spirit stone mining lamp from the soft mud and barely stood up, and then walked to the side in the sound that was getting closer and closer.
