Chapter 7: Xuanyan Mine

Yun Mengze Zhang's family has many industries, but what is worthy of being guarded by the foundation monk himself can be counted with both hands.

The Xuanyan Mine is such an important place, and the Xuanyan Ore metal produced in it can be used in almost every place.

For example, the formations in the Chihu Lake of the Zhang family, such as the brightly colored magic weapons of the family, such as the scale carriage of Zhang Qing's era of steps.

It can be said that the vast majority of the Zhang family's magic weapons and formations need to rely on the production of the Xuanyan Mine.

Therefore, there are more than five foundation building cultivators here all year round, as well as a number of no less than fifty late stage Qi cultivators.

Zhang Qing felt that coming here was just a mix of qualifications, and it was not wrong in the strict sense.

"Everything in the Xuanyan Mine is arranged in an orderly manner, and we people only need to check the surroundings every day and there is nothing else to do, especially the Zhang family like you and me."

In the wide mine, a young man in red clothes was taking Zhang Qing to familiarize himself with the surroundings, where it was dangerous and where it was arbitrary, and at the same time, he was also telling everyone around him that the Zhang family had another junior in the late stage of qi training.

"This family, Brother Tang means that there are many monks with foreign surnames here?" Zhang Qing asked, and Zhang Tang on the side nodded.

"Our Chihu Zhang family is actually not an absolute immortal cultivation family, every few years, the family will openly recruit some loose cultivators, and the elders of the clan may bring back some gifted children from the mortal world."

"For a long time, there are no longer a few people who are attached to our Zhang family, but you used to be on the island in the middle of the lake, so you may not see much."

"They won't practice and study in the sect, especially those who lead the arts, but I'm afraid you won't see them in this Xuanyan Mine."

"Why is that?" Zhang Qing asked very cooperatively.

Zhang Tang smiled and said: "Because the Xuanyan Mine is too important, every monk here must be the real self of our Zhang family to be trusted, so among the monks here, in addition to our own family, are those relatives." ”

"For more than a hundred years, our Zhang family has spread out its branches, some people marry wives, and some people marry outside, many Zhang family women who have no spiritual roots will be arranged to marry a good family, and their descendants are also qualified to come to our Zhang family to cultivate, if those women's husbands are not so strong, they will even change the child back to the surname Zhang to please us."

"Therefore, our Zhang family doesn't look big, but in fact, we have already laid a big net in Yunmengze."

"The Chihu Zhang family is not just the Zhang family of Chihu."

Zhang Qing sensed the significance of such an arrangement almost immediately, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to those ancestors, "Ancestors have good means. ”

"That's not it, but then again, the most important thing is our own cultivation strength, only if we are always strong, this net can be regarded as surnamed Zhang."

"Alright, here we go." Zhang Tang stopped, and Zhang Qing realized that what he was facing was not a smooth mountain wall up to 100 meters high, but a seven-story high-rise building built on the mountain wall.

"As far as I know, there are five foundations in the Xuanyan Mine, and the first of them is Uncle Yunting who is sitting here, according to your seniority, you should call Uncle Nine."

After that, the family token on the waists of the two flickered, and they had already entered the interior of the seven-story stone building, and when they entered the seventh floor, they saw a middle-aged man with white eyebrows sitting cross-legged, but the other party was not cultivating, but reading a book.

This is also the reason why Zhang Tang was able to take Zhang Qing unimpeded.

"Uncle."

"Uncle Nine."

Hearing the salutation of the two, Zhang Yunting put down the book in his hand and looked Zhang Qing up and down, "Zhang Qing? I've been here for ten years, but I've heard your name. ”

Zhang Qing's face was calm, but Zhang Tang on the side was surprised, and couldn't help but look at it curiously.

"You took down a spirit stone mine for your family, but I don't think you should take that spirit stone mine, do you know why?"

Zhang Qing raised his head, "The meaning of Uncle Jiu, the juniors don't understand it very well. ”

"The spirit stone mine in the east has not stabilized until now, and for so many years, there have always been disputes there, and the spirit stones that can be given to the family every year are not satisfactory."

"According to what I meant at the beginning, leaving it to the Zhao family is the best choice, we are a little far away, and it is not convenient to guard that spirit stone mine."

"Has Uncle Nine changed his mind now?" Zhang Qing nodded, agreeing with the other party's statement, but finally asked a rhetorical question.

Zhang Yunting's answer was indeed as he expected, and it made Zhang Tang on the side even more curious.

"That's right, I changed my mind, what the head of the family thinks is always farther away than me, Yun Mengze is not big or small, but the Zhang family should always take a look farther away, the location of that spirit stone mine can be an opportunity for the Zhang family to rush out of this corner of Yun Mengze."

Zhang Yunting nodded, and then glanced at Zhang Qing with satisfaction, "What do you think, how should the Zhang family and the Jin Lanzong get along?" ”

In fact, this is not the first time Zhang Qing has heard this question, and even Zhang Tang on the side is not the first time.

In the sect building of Chihu Lake Island, when they were young, they would ask such questions openly, and Zhang Qing was only ten years old at that time.

As for this question, all the children of the Zhang family at that age answered almost all of them confrontation, and he was no exception.

Mainly at that time, if there were children of the Zhang family who did not answer like this, they would probably be isolated by other children, and it was possible to beat them, and the elders of the family didn't really care about their opinions, they just asked so casually.

Of course, Zhang Qing only later learned that the family only asked the little dolls casually, and he answered seriously at that time, and was even commended by the clan elders.

The reason is that the handwriting is beautiful.

That was seven years ago, and now when he encountered such a problem again, Zhang Qing was silent for a moment and only said eight words.

"If you want to take it, you must give it first."

Seven years ago he probably wrote a few thousand words, but seven years later he only had these eight words to answer.

Obviously, such an answer did not satisfy Zhang Yunting, the other party just nodded, and waved his hand to let the two retreat.

"There's still a gap over there in Xuan Fengyuan, you can go over."

"Uncle." Zhang Tang screamed, his expression a little dissatisfied.

"The first time he left the family, what he lacked was not cultivation, but experience in fighting the Fa." In the face of Zhang Tang's request, Zhang Yunting did not change his mind.

Helpless, Zhang Tang could only take Zhang Qing away, and he couldn't take care of his curiosity about Zhang Qing along the way.

"Xuan Fengyuan, is there anything different there?" In the end, Zhang Qing asked.
