This person is the fourth "monkey" Jin Dong of the "Wuyi" team, the last time Ji Bai City happened, due to time constraints, it was too late to inform the other members of the team, Jiang Feng could only go alone, fortunately, the result was perfect, the two had been in contact for some time.

Jin Dong seemed to be alone, otherwise when a bunch of demon cultivators came over, someone would have come to help him, that is to say, he was one of the lone travelers mentioned by the thief team before.

Jiang Feng didn't say hello, but took out a piece of hard Bangbang rosin-like thing from the storage bag, which is a solid condensed from the juice of a rare black pine, and the taste is also relatively unique - the smell of sweat and mud, so few people will pay extra attention to it, in the confined space, "Wuyi" uses this thing commonly known as "Songluo mud" to communicate with each other. Jiang Feng pinched it into powder, quietly smeared it on the wall of the cave, wiped it a little more every hundred or ten steps, and gradually faded away, until it was in the corner two miles away from the hall, and then stopped, released a shadow reconnaissance, and quietly waited for the "monkeys" to come and meet.

I don't know how long it has been, it's dark here, and I don't know if it's day or night.

Not far away, there was a rustle of rats, this was a signal from the "monkey", in fact, Jiang Feng had already discovered him through the shadow, but he also made the same response, and when he got closer, Jiang Feng crushed a spirit stone that still had residual spiritual power, mixed it with special powder, and sprinkled it nearby, this is the means of the "Wuyi" captain Lei Youqi, every team member will, seeing this kind of formation, the other party did not doubt it, and flashed out of the darkness without any hesitation.

"Xiaobai, why are you?" With the glimmer of the spirit stone being stimulated, Jin Dong saw Jiang Feng clearly, squatted down with confidence, and began to tidy up his clothes, even if he was wearing the ragged clothes of mining, he always kept tidy. After a brief greeting, the two of them exchanged their information in a low voice.

"Monkey" is indeed a lone traveler, and he is also here for the purple fire copper crystal, the natal law phase "Fire Cloud Spirit Monkey" belongs to the fire and earth mixed law phase, suitable for cultivating some fire skills, so he wants to get some second-order material purple fire copper crystal, and then find someone to reforge his new weapon - a purple gold short stick, if you are lucky, it is better to earn an extra amount of money, and it is not easy to live a casual life, so you naturally have to seize every opportunity in front of you to make money.

The lone traveler is not welcomed here, the yield of Gain excavation is low, and he is not willing to pay management fees, of course, because there is no "contract" in his body, and naturally there is no "talisman" constraints. Those demon cultivators in the mine can't control the lone traveler, if the matter is reported, the sect will find more people to come over to check, and even affect the theft and excavation, and the gains outweigh the losses. Therefore, a few demon cultivators who guard and steal themselves, throw a mouse taboo, and turn a blind eye, it is naturally good to be able to forcibly ask for some "management fees", if you do encounter hard stubble, either endure it, or simply wait for the right opportunity to kill people and kill people, if it is not for the fact that the mine here is easy to collapse and cannot use skills at will, the living environment of the lone traveler will be even worse.

The "monkey" was just surrounded, that is, he was forcibly extorted for a management fee, and the monkey excused himself for nothing, and his neck was hard, and the other party had no choice, after all, this probability was still very high, and it was a waste of effort to kill a worthless demon cultivator. He has been wandering around here for a long time, it is a famous stinky stone, soft and hard do not eat, he himself knows, when he is going to leave the mine, that is, when he settles accounts after the autumn, he will either pay a management fee, or he will be hard, as long as his fist is big, the other party will not be able to do it once he leaves, and there is really no demon cultivator with strong combat power who lives in the tailings of Tianmu Mountain.

The powerful demon cultivators have more options, and this tailings is like a fallen beast skin, attracting a bunch of scavenging vultures at most, and as for the goshawks, they don't bother to beg for food here.

The analogy is quite apt. Jiang Feng has a kinship, compared to the other three members of the "Wuyi", what he lacks is this kind of ambition and vision of casual cultivation, but he has a small sect as the backing, and he has the greatest advantage.

"But why am I still being sent here to investigate, aren't they exposed?"

"I guess this is just a disguised control," Jin Dong said, "It's impossible that no one steals the tailings, and sending you over, on the one hand, is just to monitor how serious the problem is at any time, and on the other hand, it's just a knock and knock, so as not to affect the sale of Zihuo copper crystal through regular channels." Even though you're working for people, I'm sure that if you turn this upside down, they'll be unhappy and will find a reason to punish you. ”

"Then what should I do?" exchanged with Jin Dong, and he also realized that the inside story was not as simple as he imagined.

"Just write a report in the past, just say a few words without pain, for example, illegal mining does exist, it is a bunch of outlaws and scattered cultivation, and its whereabouts are uncertain, it is difficult to manage, it is recommended that the sect send someone to specialize in managing tailings, and so on, even if the task is completed, not only can the task be completed smoothly, but it will not bring trouble to the outer disciple you said." ”

"Having said this, I feel a little unwilling. ”

"You have so much sense of justice in your heart that you are overflowing?"

"No, you won't get anything. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, they had cooperated a few times, and they already had a tacit understanding in their hearts, and they simply understood what the other party wanted.

............

Dong Xinwu and Dong Xinzhou brothers came to Tianmu Mountain tailings mine for the second time to work part-time to make a living, the two of them cultivated as average, and did a few years of blocking the road and robbing ordinary people, and later encountered the strong suppression of bandits by the official, so they had to change their court and collect protection money on the dock, but this line of land is full of snakes, and the two are not good at fighting, and they are excluded and suppressed everywhere. Fortunately, the two of them still have a lot of strength, so they are still like a fish in water in this Tianmu Mountain, and occasionally follow the trend to grab some lonely casual cultivation, and their lives are not bad. On this day, because Dong Xinwu's arm was accidentally injured by the collapse of the mine the day before, the efficiency of the excavation was a little lower, and it took an hour longer than usual to complete today's set goal.

"Send a signal, I'm afraid I'll be blackened by the old cold legs a lot today, it's a little slow today. Dong Xinwu asked his younger brother Dong Xinzhou to send a signal and summon the old cold leg to come over to settle the bill.

Dong Xinzhou handed the torch to Dong Xinwu, took out the messenger spirit stone, and was about to crush it, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and a dazzling white light instantly blinded the two of them.

The people who came were Jiang Feng and Jin Dong, the two dragged the Dong brothers away and did not kill them, they only left a handicraft to kill here, and they didn't even move the storage bag. Jin Dong distressedly stuffed a second-order fire-based spirit stone with exhausted spiritual power in his hand into the storage bag, held Dong Xinzhou's hand, and crushed the messenger spirit stone that he wanted to crush in the first place.

Jiang Feng put on Dong Xinzhou's ragged clothes, held a torch, and waited for Lao Han's legs in the main tunnel of the mine, his face was slightly distorted, and he changed his appearance slightly, his ability to change his appearance freely was also a secret in the "gray clothes" team. What's more, the miners are basically covered in dust, and it is difficult to distinguish the specific appearance, and he believes that it is impossible for Lao Hanleg to remember every miner.

After a long time, the old cold leg staggered.

"I'm resting so late. ”

"Stay with me, my brother is injured, and he dug slowly today. When he moved the Dong brothers, he noticed that one of them had an arm injury, and threw out this reason.

"Rules are rules, and in this case, a management fee of 50% will be charged. Old Han didn't forget to check Jiang Feng's "talisman" and found that there was no trace of activation, so he gave up.

"Yes, you always don't raise your noble hand, and it's not easy for us to beg for a living," Jiang Feng bargained with the old man while leading him into the narrow tunnel where the Dong brothers were mining.

"No," Lao Hanleg clearly rejected Jiang Feng, "Don't be embarrassed, Tianmu Mountain is not something you can come to when you want to, there are people who want to come." He stepped forward to check the quality of the Purple Fire Copper Crystal, according to his practice, this kind of slowest finish, he not only had to collect fifty percent of the management fee, but also took away a piece of the highest quality ore, so he kicked another person who was picking and picking around his arm next to him, "Go away, I'll take a look." ”

The man was not in a hurry, he took the largest piece of ore, as if to hand it over, but the old cold leg was about to take it, but the torch behind him suddenly went out, and he was shocked, and his head had been smashed by the ore.

This trick is not fatal, the old cold leg doesn't care about the head injury, just run away, as long as he runs out of this tunnel and returns to the main tunnel of the mine, he can call someone to help at any time, but he didn't expect this tunnel to be spacious, and it was a slam again, and then a continuous slam.

"How to deal with it," The torch was lit again in the dark, Jiang Feng changed back to Jiang Xiaobai's appearance, and the old cold leg on the ground was no longer breathing.

"You can't use the fire charm, it will leave traces," Jin Dong said, "with my short stick," he took out a three-foot-long short stick, but the short stick was very thick, more like a mace, hammering up and down on the left and right sides of the mine, and the gravel continued to fall, gradually burying the old cold legs.

"The thing on your chest can't do it, as long as the purple fire copper crystal enters your storage bag, it will be recorded, so you can't take it," Jin Dong took the storage bag from Lao Han's leg, "I don't know how he avoided this magic weapon," he took advantage of the fact that the ore had not completely buried Lao Han's leg, and groped left and right on him, trying to find out if there was an additional magic weapon, but he found nothing.

Maybe it's an article made on a ritual instrument.

The two of them can only get such an answer for the time being, as for trying to exchange "talismans", the two of them will not do this kind of behavior that is easy to contaminate, Jiang Feng hid away, Jin Dong opened the storage bag of the old cold leg, and poured out more than 1,500 purple fire copper crystals from it.

"One and a half, I'll take it for you first, and when you finish the task, I'll find a way to give it to you." "To have such a harvest, both of them can't hold back their excitement, their breathing is a little heavy, although the amount is so large that it is a little difficult to shoot, but what is valuable is something valuable, and it will not change.

"Xiaobai, you are really a lucky star," Jin Dong patted Jiang Feng excitedly, just in time for Lao Han's leg to carry the storage bag with him, and the purple fire copper crystal in the storage bag happened to not be put away, otherwise, it is very possible to start with only a few dozen purple fire copper crystals, and in that case, the two of them can only accept their fate.

Jin Dong collected a thousand purple fire copper crystals, and put the rest back into the storage bag of Lao Han's legs, hung it on his waist again, and smashed it with a purple gold short stick, almost burying this tunnel, the two threw the Dong brothers' bodies outside, changed their clothes back, threw a lot of gravel on it, camouflaged the scene, and only then did they withdraw after Jin Dong cleaned up the dust around him.

"You can't go," Jin Dong said, "Lao Han's legs are hanging, someone will definitely come to investigate, but most of them will calm down, and you will leave after you get rid of suspicion." I'll have to find a way to hide the storage bag, hang around here for a few days, and then wash it all before leaving. ”

The two made an appointment at the meeting place of Zhenwu City, and they went their separate ways, pretending to be strangers who didn't know each other.

On the day of Lao Han's death, Tianmu Mountain was turned upside down. The few demon cultivators stationed in the old arms and legs suddenly became old and strong, jumping up and down in the mine, wanting to investigate the matter thoroughly. The strange thing was that when the body of Lao Han's leg was dug up, Jiang Feng noticed that the storage bag and the magic weapons on his body were missing.

The Dong brothers even ran away.

All the thieves in the mine, including Jiang Feng, a disciple of the outer sect of the pseudo-power sect and a part-time investigator, were all gathered, and unexpectedly, Jiang Feng found that he was not the only one who had the identity of an investigator. Everyone watched each other and was not allowed to leave until the next day, when the Li Sect sent people down.

The person who came was an old man with a yellow beard, with a purple gold copper bell tied around his waist, and he couldn't see it clearly, at least at the ground level, and he looked kind and kind, but the pair of triangular eyes squeezed out of his smile always made people feel yin and cold in his back.

"Did you lose your things?" he looked back at the trembling, cold sweaty old man, who was one of the demon cultivators stationed here who refused to leave.

"Yes, there are two other people who also ran away, the most suspicious, and we have the information they left here. However, according to our analysis, it may also be caused by the collapse of the mine. ”

"How can it be so easy to collapse, I know this mine best. The yellow-bearded old man snorted in a low voice, "If you want to mess around here, you're not afraid of hot things," he shook the spirit beast bag on his waist, and jumped out of a chipmunk-like crimson beast, the little beast stretched out its short upper limbs, and begged for a green spirit valley ball, only to see the yellow-bearded old man shake the copper bell, and the little beast listened to the order, and jumped in the direction of everyone while eating.

Squeak - squeak -

The little beast stayed near a hunchbacked demon cultivator, screaming non-stop, but looking at the hunchbacked demon cultivator, under the black fluffy hair, a dirty face instantly sweated like rain, he took two steps back, and suddenly ran into the distance.

"It's not that easy to go. The yellow-bearded old man pointed with his right hand, and a spiritual power galloped away, and the hunchback demon cultivated his body and pounced.

The strength of the ground level is really strong, although there is no expected flesh and blood flying, but between square inches, taking its head is enough to shock, the little beast ran into the distance, and on the hunchback demon cultivator, he took out a storage bag, which was the one with the old cold leg before.

Jiang Feng secretly glanced at Jin Dong who was standing in the front row, and a cunning light flashed in his eyes, this guy was right, if he took the storage bag of Lao Han's legs, he would probably be the one who was killed at this time.

The yellow-bearded old man grabbed the storage bag, and his divine sense looked inside, and the piles of purple fire copper crystals were still there, and his heart was a little settled. Threw another yellow Linggu ball, the little beast took it, swallowed it in a few bites, the copper bell rang, and the little beast looked at everyone again.
