Chapter 81: The Praying Mantis Flutters on the Cicada

The wind howled over the hillside, and a man dressed in a bearded costume turned over and dismounted and walked into the middle tent as there was the sound of hunting in five tents not far from the foot of the lonely city.

In the tent, Guan Shuo and Lao Gao were talking about various details, and on the grass in front of him was a detailed drawing drawn by Gao Zhang. ”

Guan Shuo Huoran got up and said, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

The three of them walked out of the tent and found a hidden place on the mountain, with an unobstructed view of the pasture of Kulie at the bottom of the mountain, and then they saw two carriages approaching the pasture from the north, and there were four or five Hu soldiers guarding them.

The carriage went all the way to the fence near the lonely city mountain in the pasture, and a knight next to him took out something from his clothes and shook it at the Huren guards by the fence, and the guards who were sheltering from the wind in the grass hut waved his hand and let the carriage enter the fence.

Lao Gao whispered to Guan Shuo at this time: "Tomorrow, we will rely on these two carriages to sneak in, after entering the fence, there will be no more soldiers on the periphery of the mine, Gao Zhang will go to the time of a stick of incense first, sweep away the soldiers on the periphery, and let the carriage enter the mine." ”

Guan Shuo nodded, looked up and estimated the time, and the three of them went down the hill and returned to the tent.

In the stone room in the cave, Su Ruo finally repaired the array plate given to him by his master, and after returning to Gucheng Mountain from the cave of the blue-eyed spirit carving, Su Ruo has been repairing the array disk, she is preparing to lay down a protective formation when collecting purple chalcedon, and she has an extra layer of protection.

Seeing the faint yellow luster on the array disk, Su Ruoyan's red mouth exhaled softly, and used her fingers to hold the green silk scattered on her cheeks behind her white ears, revealing a delicate face.

After putting down the array plate, Su Ruo's mind couldn't help but think of Qin Wen's figure, and he didn't know if he was in the Qin Manor now, according to Su Ruo's estimate, in this mine, he should be able to collect about 5,000 catties of purple pulp essence rough stones, and if he refined, he could also get about ten catties of purple pulp essence.

Originally, she planned to divide these purple pulp essences into two, keep half of them for herself, and then give the other half to her master, but now she suddenly remembered the Yanlong spear she had refined for Qin Wen, if she fused the purple marrow essence, the grade could be upgraded to another level, and after hesitating for a moment, she was ready to divide another half of the purple pulp essence she left behind for Qin Wen.

As soon as he thought of this, there was a sudden knock on the door, Su Ruoyin had a slightly gentle smile on his face, and asked coldly, "Is there something wrong?"

A maid's voice came from outside: "Holy Master, just now someone from the stone mine reported that they have dug more than thirty-nine zhang, and the rock formation inside is too hard, and the ordinary Xuantie pickaxe can no longer be used. ”

Su Ruo said lightly: "Got it." ”

When he walked out of the room, he saw that the maid was still standing in front of the door, and asked, "Do you Great Khan know about this?"

The maid said cautiously: "Just now the steward of the mine reported to the Great Khan, and then the Great Khan asked the slave and maid to come and ask the Holy Master how to deal with it?"

Su Ruo walked slowly towards the depths of the mine, from wide and narrow, to the road where only two trolleys were left to pass, and the stone walls next to it were all red chalcedony stones with a yellow luster, until the inside of the mining cave, the color gradually deepened.

At the end of the mine, the color of the stone wall had turned light purple, and several Huren miners in thin shirts were squatting on the ground to rest, next to a few broken black iron pickaxes.

Seeing Su Ruo walk into the mine, the Hu miners all stood up in a hurry, leaning against the stone wall behind them, leaving a path in the middle.

Su Ruo walked straight to the edge of the stone wall, looked at the purple rock formation in front of him, a faint layer of vitality shrouded in his white fingers, and then pinched the rock, and the rock showed no signs of shattering.

Su Ruo nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the maid who had been following him behind him: "Tell you Great Khan, from now on, the mine will be closed, and no one will be allowed to enter within a radius of ten miles of the mining area for two months, and those who violate the order will bear the consequences." ”

When the maid heard Su Ruo's cold words, she couldn't help but shudder, pulled up her skirt and ran quickly to the outside of the mine, and several miners next to her also glanced at each other, packed up their clothes, and slowly exited the mine.

At this time, Su Ruo took out a small crystal white pickaxe from the storage bag, activated his vitality, and gently swiped down against the stone wall, and a large purple rock fell in response, revealing a darker rock formation.

Su Ruo flicked the stone layer with her fingers, and made a crisp sound, these are the purple pulp essence she wanted, estimated the width, it should be within a radius of five feet, if you do it yourself, it will take two days at most, and you can complete the mining of these purple pulp essences.

The two months she said to Kulie were actually to confuse them, and after two months, she had already left the mine, and it was estimated that Kulie would never be able to Zaijian her in this life.

At this time, Su Ruo heard the words of withdrawing from the mine outside, so he took out his own repair haode array disk, the small array disk had been broken by Lu Mo, and now only this large array disk was left on his body, he found a good position, and placed the array disk on a flat stone layer.

She first put her vitality into the array plate, and gradually a layer of faint spiritual mist appeared at the array disk, and the spiritual mist slowly drifted away in the mine, and after a time of incense, the formation had taken a slight rudimentary shape.

Ku Lie had already hurriedly walked towards the depths of the mine at this time, Lu Mo followed behind him with a gloomy face, after receiving Ku Lie's order, the holy masters in the tribe also approached Ku Lie from the various pit road intersections in the mining area, and in the time of half a pillar of incense, dozens of holy masters and body refining cultivators had already gathered behind him.

Contrary to them, the ordinary soldiers in the mines gathered towards each hole, and the miners evacuated to the outside.

When groups of miners were ordered by the soldiers to form a circle in the pasture, the monks watching from outside Guan Shuo's tent saw this scene and immediately entered the tent to report to Guan Shuo.

Guan Shuo and Lao Gao walked out of the tent again, and when they saw the miners coming out of the mine one after another, Guan Shuo couldn't help frowning slightly and said, "What's going on?"

Lao Gao thought for a while and said: "These ordinary miners were driven out of the cave, they should have found the purple chalcedony essence rock layer, Kulie should be afraid that their excavation in other mines would destroy the purple chalcedony essence rock layer, so he would first let them gather in the pasture outside, and then wait until the purple chalcedony essence is mined, and then let them go in to mine the remaining red chalcedony stone mine." ”

Guan Shuo's face changed at this time and said: "Oh no, our Jihua is going to change, if these miners stay outside the mine, then even if we take the carriage for supplies, we still won't be able to get into the mine." ”

Lao Gao looked at the crowd of people who came out of the mine with sharp eyes, and then said to Guan Shuo: "Now is a good time, we don't have to wait for tomorrow, gather immediately, and enter the mine according to the group." ”

Guan Shuo nodded, and then sent a voice to each tent, and in a few breaths, all the people walked out of the tent, divided into various groups, and rushed towards the ranch in several ways.

Qin Wen's group had a total of fifteen people, the largest number of people in all the groups, and in order to avoid being discovered, they flew up to Gucheng Mountain, and then prepared to enter the mine from the opposite mountain.

In less than a stick of incense, they had already arrived at the mountain road corresponding to the mine, and after Ao Yu, who was at the forefront, disposed of the two fixed guards, the group of people wearing Hu clothes smoothly blended into the mine.

At this time, Ku Lie felt the faint aura fluctuations in the mine, and when he thought of the hundred-mile array that Su Ruo had laid out on the bluestone beach that day, his heart trembled slightly, and he turned back with a slightly hesitant face and asked, "Saint Master Lu, are these people we brought with you sure?"

Lu Mo glanced at him and said, "What's the matter?" Is the Great Khan a little scared, if you are afraid, you can take someone to retreat, wait until the person surnamed Su digs up the purple chalcedony essence, and then you can continue to dig up the remaining red chalcedony stone below, so that there is no risk at all." ”

Ku Lie's face turned slightly red and said, "Who is scared?" I'm just a little worried about the array in Saint Master Su's hand. ”

"What is the array? Lu Mo said lightly: "There is no spiritual vein in this mine, and the array plate also needs the support of vitality, just by virtue of her as a monk in the realm of Xuanshi, even if there is a powerful array disk, it can still block us." ”

At this time, Ku Lie thought that Su Ruo had set up a hundred-mile array, and had borrowed a few holy masters from herself, and it seemed that with her own cultivation, she would definitely not be able to support the big array, and she was also much relieved in her heart, so she waved her hand fiercely to the back and said, "Let's go, everyone hurry up." ”

At this time, Guan Shuo and Lao Gao also mixed into the mine, Lao Gao took out a jade bottle from his storage bag, there was a drop of purple crystal liquid in the jade bottle, as soon as the jade bottle came out of the storage bag, Lao Gao's divine sense probed the jade bottle and trembled slightly, Lao Gao walked towards the mine, and Lao Gao's divine consciousness fluctuated more and more intensely.

Lao Gao nodded to Guan Shuo, and then walked into the depths of the mine with his divine sense.

Just turned the first mine road intersection, suddenly a large group of miners poured out in front of them, and there were two Hu soldiers driving behind, Lao Gao and Guan Shuo gestured slightly with their eyes, and they all tacitly leaned towards the stone wall, making way for the miners.

However, after the miners had passed, the soldiers behind looked at Lao Gao's clothes and asked with doubts: "Which mine are you from?" The Great Khan has ordered all the miners to assemble at the pasture. ”
