Huang Tiedan pushed the small iron cart, walked to the back of the team, and followed into the entrance of the mine, and when he arrived at the gate, he glanced at a group of people standing at the gate. At the gate, at this time, He Jiule and Fang Jianbai were standing, as well as several of their subordinates, and a guard was also guarding both sides of the gate. Huang Tiedan saw that He Jiule looked like he was smiling without smiling, looking at the miners who entered the mine in turn, he inadvertently glanced at himself, as if he had a deep meaning. Fang Jianbai pulled a square face, and his expressionless pestle was there, like a dumb dog, as if others owed him a lot of money.

Huang Tiedan glanced at the two of them, then buried his head and pretended to be in a serious hurry, not wanting He Jiule to see the difference.

Entering the entrance of the mine, Huang Tie Dan found that it was quite spacious and bright, dozens of meters in front, there was a stone cave obliquely downward, everyone was going down in turn, Huang Tie Dan knew that this stone cave must be the passage to the underground mine.

Huang Tie Dan followed the others, pushing the small iron cart, and also drilled into the stone cave, and when he came to the side, he found that the interior was a huge slope, paved with huge black stone slabs, and ten small iron carts could be driven side by side on it at the same time. The slope led straight underground, and Yellow Iron Egg knew that this was the only way to get into the inside of the mine.

The walls of the slope are inlaid with countless glowing jade stones, which illuminate the slope clearly. Huang Tiedan followed everyone, and with the light emitted by the jade, he pushed the cart and walked down. The road was still straight at first, and after a few hundred meters, it began to twist and turn, one to the left, one to the right, just like that, after about half an hour and a few kilometers, Huang Tiedan and the others finally arrived at their destination.

At this time, the place where Huang Tie Dan arrived was a huge palace, and Huang Tie Dan estimated that this palace was deep underground, and it was at least a few thousand meters smaller than the ground of the square when he came in. Huang Tie Dan stood near the entrance of the palace and observed the palace, and found that it was so huge that he couldn't see it at a glance, and if he wanted to see its whole picture, he had to go around in a circle.

The others were all standing near the entrance at this time, waiting for He Jiule and Fang Jianbai to come in and arrange the next step, Huang Tiedan saw this, and it was not good to visit the palace first, so he had to quietly wait for the two to come in, just like the others.

Soon after, as all the miners entered the palace, He Jiule and Fang Jianbai also followed, this time without bringing the public and guards. After the two entered the palace, they took everyone and began to walk around the palace so that everyone could have a general understanding of the environment here. At the same time, whenever everyone saw or encountered doubtful questions, He Jiule did not forget to answer them for everyone.

In this way, the two took everyone around the palace, talked, and arranged the next step.

Only then did everyone realize that this palace was very huge, roughly in the shape of a cylinder, with a roughly circular floor and ceiling, and a radius of several kilometers, and it would take a lot of time just to turn this palace around. On the floor, there are many huge stone pillars, which hold up the ceiling high, and the ceiling is several hundred meters above the ground, and there are many stone lamps inlaid on it, and the light of the stone lamps shines down from top to bottom, illuminating the whole palace.

In the middle of the floor of the palace, there is a special mechanism, which is a special scale. Everyone was a little puzzled by this, so He Jiule explained the function of this scale to everyone, and everyone understood.

It turns out that this scale is used by miners to weigh the spirit stone mine, and the miners go underground to collect the spirit stone mine, and when they return here, they can use this scale to weigh the spirit stone mine they have collected, so as to know whether they have completed the task of the day.

In addition, there are other special structures in the palace.

On the east side of the palace is the entrance, that is, the entrance when everyone comes in, and this entrance is exactly on the east side of the palace. On the right hand side of the palace when the miners entered the palace, the northeast side of the palace, from the entrance, from east to north, in a counterclockwise direction, on the walls of the palace, there are many stone houses, which is where the miners will live for the next three months. The number of these houses, not to mention tens of thousands, from east to north, densely arranged, this time there are thousands of miners, each living in one, all of them are more than enough.

Under the arrangement of He Jiule and Fang Jianbai, everyone lived in different stone houses in turn, and after entering the stone house, they found that there was a hole in this stone house, which was very narrow and long, and the volume was also very large, and a large number of items could be placed.

In this regard, He Jiule explained again, it turned out that these stone houses were not only for everyone to live in, but also for everyone to store the spirit stone mine.

The task of everyone is to collect a cow's spirit stone mine every day for three months, and to collect a total of eight elephant spirit stone mines to complete the task. In these three months, no miner can leave the palace, eat, drink and Lazar must be in the palace, and the collected spirit stone mines must also be temporarily placed in the palace, in order to distinguish and place each miner's spirit stone mines, these stone houses just come in handy, they are huge, and they are more than enough to hold a cluster of spirit stone mines for each person.

On the west side of the palace wall, there are a hundred entrances irregularly, which can lead to the underground, forming a hundred passages, which are the passages that miners have to pass through when mining, and miners who want to go underground to mine have to pass through these hundred passages. They start from the palace and continue to descend and then gradually descend into the ground, which is intricate and zigzag. Some passages will also communicate with each other underground, and some will go deep into the ground, and the terrain is very steep.

He Jiule explained to everyone that these hundred passages can lead to the deep underground, in the underground, everyone can mine the spirit stone mine at will, and when everyone collects a certain amount of spirit stone mine, they can use a small iron car to transport the spirit stone mine back to their stone house and store it.

Huang Tie Dan followed behind the team, and also saw the general structure of this palace clearly, so he compared this palace with the Yushu Copy Palace he had visited a few years ago, and found that even if it was not as huge as the Copy Palace, it was still magnificent enough compared to ordinary above-ground palaces.

In this way, He Jiule and Fang Jianbai took everyone to visit the palace, and then He Jiule explained the last few words to everyone and said, "Okay, the situation is roughly like this. Oh, there is another point to remind you, these 100 underground passages for mining are very steep, you should be careful, especially the hundredth passage, it does not communicate with other passages, it is an independent passage, its inner spiritual stone mines are the richest, but also the most dangerous, at the end of it, there is a natural cave, it is said to lead to the depths of the earth's heart, you better not approach. ”

After hearing this, everyone replied one after another: "Yes, Master He, Xiao Xiu understands." ”

He Jiule said: "Okay, you each go back to the house to tidy up, and then, officially start mining, remember, your task today is one cow per person." ”

Everyone said: "Yes, Master He, Xiao Xiu understands." ”

He Jiule said: "Okay, Benshu and Deputy Chief Fang went out first, and after that, we will come in from time to time to check, you can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, He Jiule and Fang Jianbai went out from the entrance when they came.

Everyone said: "Congratulations to Lord He, congratulations to Lord Fang." ”

After the two left, everyone began to organize their housework and prepare for the next mining work.

Huang Tie Dan was arranged to live in a stone house on the north side of the palace, which was very large, very narrow and long, and dark inside. Huang Tiedan took out his spherical stone lamp, illuminated the light, walked forward, and found that this stone house was indeed very large, although it was only less than twenty meters wide, but it was one or two hundred meters long.

Huang Tiedan had already pushed the small iron cart into the stone house and put it on the side of the gate, this time, he unloaded some unimportant items and a cart full of food, placed them in a corner of the stone house, and then went out, locked the stone door again, and pushed the cart with a crane's beak spirit hoe to the opposite mining channel.

The others were also ready, and like the Yellow Iron Egg, they headed towards the hundred mining tunnels.

Everyone heard He Jiule say that the hundredth passage is the most dangerous, and it is best not to go there, so basically no one patronizes this kind of passage, it is located in the north of the west side of the palace, which is different from other passages, and it is located on one side alone, which seems to be relatively quiet. The other ninety-nine lanes, each patronized by miners.

The crowd was in groups of three or five, each pushing a small iron cart, carrying a crane's beak hoe, and some also carrying a large iron hammer, a large iron chisel and other auxiliary tools, and went to one of the passages together, and dozens or hundreds of people entered each passage.

Relatively speaking, only a few people entered the hundredth passage, and Huang Tie Dan was one of them. Huang Tie Dan heard that the Spirit Stone Mine of the 100th Passage had the most but was the most dangerous, so he thought about it and decided to take a risk to see what the situation was inside?

Huang Tie Dan thought about it, if there were indeed a lot of spirit stone mines inside, then he would be able to complete the task in advance every day, saving time for other things, and if there was indeed a danger in it that he could not overcome, it would not be too late to quit at that time. Anyway, it's not like I haven't been to a dangerous place, such as the Quest Palace, this hundredth passage, even if it is really more dangerous than other places as Jiule said, it can be more dangerous than the Quest Palace?

Huang Tie Dantou Tie, thinking that this is a passage, it is difficult to reach the dignified bluestone layman, and he is not afraid, he can enter casually and dig out the spirit stone mine inside. Besides, other passages are equally dangerous, if you don't have the ability to do it, you can't keep it even, any channel will overturn and accidentally die inside!
