Wandering looked up at the sky, and the moon had disappeared behind the clouds.

Reaching out and pulling down a handful of tender green leaves, carefully erasing the blood from the dagger.

This dagger has followed him so far, not the first time he has drunk blood, but the first time he has drunk human blood.

Coincidentally, this is also the first time you have killed someone.

Despite this, being in the local area at the time, You Li did not feel very nervous or scared. On the contrary, because the incident involved the safety of the Xuanguan and caused anger and murder, the excitement of happiness and revenge, the bloodthirstiness of the knife in his hand, and the flashing remorse and ...... Scared, emotionally distraught, and mixed feelings.

After calming down, You Li took off the robe on Li Tong and put it into the gold and jade bead bag.

This is also a helpless move, because ordinary flames can't burn high-level magic weapons, and this robe was severely damaged by the fireball rune array, once it was tracked down by Qiu Weishan, it could lock itself with this physical evidence, so it could only retreat and take this robe away first.

After that, You Li briefly dealt with the scene, and gathered Li Tong, who was in a different position, to the trunk of the destroyed tree. Then he released his divine sense to sense, and then a few ups and downs, and went into the mountain nest.

After a stick of incense, when he returned, he carried two white-headed night owls with their wings tied in his hands and threw them next to Li Tong's corpse.

The two newly grown white-headed night owls, obviously hadn't eaten for a long time, and directly pounced forward and ate Li Tong's corpse.

You watched from the side for a while, and saw that the corpse, which was not a good death, had been pecked beyond recognition, but the cervical vertebrae at the neck could not hide the traces of being cut off by a sharp weapon, so he untied the rope, let the two night owls fly away, took out the fire sickle, and burned the remaining flesh and blood.

Packed up everything, wandered away to find the right direction, and hurried north.

All the way to Xiaoxing overnight, passing through several scattered villages on the way, they did not stop to stay, but moved at full speed, and finally arrived at the southern foot of Qingyun Mountain in the evening of the third day.

Qingyun Mountain is one of the three Jinwushi mines, Luanming Mountain in the south and Yunfu Mountain in the north.

It is precisely because Qingyun Mountain is located in the middle of the north and south that it has long gathered the largest village in Anhua Town, with more than 200 households, and the name is also taken from local materials, so it is called Qingyun Village.

You Li has learned from Zhai Biqing that in the near future, the mining of Jinwu Stone Mine will first start from Qingyun Mountain. So after three consecutive days of eating and sleeping, he decided to rest at the foot of Qingyun Village.

The pattern of Qingyun Village is quite peculiar, the whole village covers an area of more than 400 acres, and the overall layout is plum blossom-shaped, that is, the five peripheral areas, guarding a three-storey building in the center. This high-rise building is the office of the newly set up pit and metallurgical department on Anxi Road.

It is precisely because of the stationing of the Pit and Metallurgical Division that Qingyun Village's life, entertainment and other supporting facilities are quite sound, and it is not inferior to ordinary small towns.

When you enter the village, it is the time of the lantern, and the two major entertainment areas near Qingyun Mountain are already brightly lit.

After strolling around for a while, he finally stopped in front of a teahouse.

It's not that I'm thirsty and want to drink tea, but the name of the teahouse looks familiar, and it's called "Go to the teahouse".

If I remember correctly, the predecessor of Qingyuan Teahouse in Anhua Town, isn't it called "Go to Teahouse"?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be aroused, and he temporarily got up, turned around and walked in.

When I went in, I found that it was really just a teahouse, and there were no other services such as food and accommodation, and there were very few guests.

"Yo, rare guest. ”

You followed the prestige, couldn't help laughing, hugged your fists and said: "Old shopkeeper, I thought you had left Shengshan County, it turned out that you came here to make a fortune." ”

The old shopkeeper said: "The old man was impatient with the noise of Anhua Town, so he moved here." ”

You Li wondered: "The liveliness here is not much lower than that of Anhua Town." Wouldn't it be even more noisy if we started mining in the future?"

The old shopkeeper shook his head and said firmly: "It's different. Anhua Town will only get noisier and noisier, and there will not be so many people in Qingyun Village. ”

The two chatted for a while, and then learned that the old shopkeeper's name was Fan Ke, a native of Gukang County, Jinju, and a tea merchant who traveled from south to north - at least that's how he introduced himself.

Fan Ke asked, "Why did you come here alone at night?"

You said: "I went out to travel, and I found a friend." You also know the two people who took down your original teahouse. ”

Fan Ke's face was abrupt: "It's them." The future is terrifying, and now the business is not small, and another restaurant has been opened in Qingyun Village, and the business is very good. Even Zhang Tiju of the Pit Metallurgical Division frequented him. ”

After listening to it, he really admired Fang Huaiyuan and Zhai Biqing's activity ability.

The full name of the Pit and Metallurgical Division here is "Tiju Anxi Road Pit and Metallurgical Division", and the chief officer is the "Tiju Pit and Metallurgical Division", referred to as "Tiju", who is responsible for supervising the mining, smelting, transportation and other matters of this Jinwu Stone Quarry in Shengshan County.

It seems that these two people have already connected with the relevant officials of the imperial court, and it seems that they are making good progress when they hear this.

After saying goodbye to Fan Ke, you followed his prompts, walked through the streets and alleys, and went straight to the area located directly north of the village, and saw a two-storey restaurant in the distance, and the name was also taken from the name of the two people, named "Qingyuan".

The business of Qingyuan Restaurant is indeed very good, and the lobby is almost full.

You find an old shopkeeper and explain his intentions. The shopkeeper respectfully led the wanderer into a single courtyard with an elegant environment in the backyard.

Knocking on the door, it was none other than Zhai Biqing who opened the door.

I saw this guy with a red face, and after seeing Youli, he was stunned at first, and then put his arm around his shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Brother You, why didn't you say hello in advance?"

"I don't know the latitude and longitude of the message here. ”

"Also, I forgot to tell you before. I will copy a copy of the ecliptic and equatorial latitude and longitude points of the Xianyi here. You just happened to be here, we were having a drink with Zhang Tiju of the Pit Ye Division, and we happened to know each other. ”

When he came to the private room in the back room, he saw seven people sitting around.

Looking around, I only knew Fang Huaiyuan, as well as Zhai Biqing beside me, and the others were all fresh faces.

Fang Huai's vision was free, and he greeted again and again: "Xiaoyou, come here, my brother will introduce you to you." This is Zhang Tiju of the Pit Ye Division, who was just transferred from the capital last month. This is Wan Jiantao, who is responsible for the exploration and inspection of the mine, and will be the current boss in charge of us in the future. This is ......"

After introducing them one by one, you Li realized that two of the seven people were the children of the ink maker. As for the other four, in addition to the promotion officer Zhang Lairen and the inspection officer Wan Liu, there are two cadres in charge of various specific affairs.

After a pleasant greeting, he sat down at the table. Before sitting down, don't forget to make a joke:

"Seniors, Xiaodao is still young and can't drink, please forgive me. ”

Zhang Lairen said: "The "Great Sui Law" stipulates that a man can only drink alcohol when he is 14 years old. I don't know if the trail is long and noble?"

"I'm almost eight years old." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked sideways. After appreciating one after another, Fang Huaiyuan took back the original topic.

"Lord Tiju, what is Li Zhizhou's attitude?"

Zhang Lairen nibbled on the chicken leg and said, "What kind of attitude can it be? I heard that the official was originally quite optimistic about you, but as soon as he heard that we were stationed, his attitude changed greatly. ”

Fang Huaiyuan frowned and said, "Could it be that it has something to do with the new transfer envoy?"

Zhang Lairen spit out the chicken bones, picked up the wine glass with his greasy hand, drank it all, and then said slowly:

"That's nature. Our Pit and Metallurgical Division will be directly managed by the Transshipment Department in the future, so we settled in so early to give the Transshipment Envoy who is about to take office. ”

At this time, Zhai Biqing's senior brother, the son of an inksmith named Qian Qiao, asked:

"If that's the case, Li Zhizhou is only afraid that he will be more determined to choose the immortal sect of Benzhou this way, right?"

Zhang Lairen wiped his mouth and said nonchalantly: "Even if the capital does not send a transfer envoy, whether Li Zhizhou chooses you or not, it is still between the two - don't forget, he also serves as the pacification envoy of Anxi Road, if this opportunity to make a fortune is given to you ink craftsmen, how can he explain to the border soldiers below who were born and died?"

Fang Huaiyuan and the others glanced at each other, and they all showed wry smiles.

The situation is really not as complicated as usual.

Zhang Lairen glanced at the few people who were silent, and said unhurriedly:

"Although the imperial court hopes to mine as soon as possible, it also does not want to damage the veins due to the hasty launch, which is no different from fishing in the dry water. I can give you a thorough understanding first, you have the advantage of exploration and mining techniques, which is what the imperial court values the most. Whether the construction of the supporting facilities of the mine is up to standard and whether the mining equipment is in place is the final say of the Pit and Metallurgical Division. ”
