Body 34 Quest Secret
Shadow Ge didn't shy away from everyone's conversation with Sui Xing, and with his left ear protection power and spiritual sense, he listened to their conversation very clearly, and his heart trembled.
According to the normal procedure, the names of these monks should be deleted from that list, and the death report should be carried out in the affairs sect, and the share of spirit stones in the task reward will be deducted, and it will be transferred to the Law Enforcement Hall to deal with compensation and punishment. Only the names of the monks who came to complete the task could be left on the sign-in sheet, but Shadow Ge lied with a clear conscience and imposed the names of the dead monks on the sign-in sheet.
"It's hateful that these guys actually take advantage of the dead!" said the butterfly in her heart.
Even the butterfly could see that this was a conspiracy, and of course Zuo Hu also understood that Ying Ge concealed the death of the monk in order to get more spirit stone rewards from the Affairs Sect, if a monk had a thousand spirit stones, there were at least nearly twenty immortal cultivators who fell to death, and 20,000 spirit stones were swallowed by him like this!
But obviously, swallowing these spirit stones, it is not enough to rely on Ying Ge alone, this requires a chain of interests, that year star, should be a link in this chain, and within the affairs sect, there must be a person who belongs to a link in this chain of interests!
Zuo Hu's eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes flashed. I didn't expect that when I came out to carry out the mission, there would be so many shady scenes, thinking of the indifferent eyes of Ying Ge on the back of the eagle, Zuo Hu was a little chilled, maybe, those who fell, Ying Ge deliberately did not save them, he wanted to use the life of the monk who was not good at cultivation to exchange for a little more spirit stone reward!
"Zuo Go, you have to be careful, beware of this Scarface assassinating you!" Butterfly reminded softly. Zuo Hu nodded secretly, this Shadow Ge should not be vicious to the point of killing his fellow disciples, if that is the case, I am afraid that these people will have to fight to the death with him, if these people have too many casualties, I am afraid that his ugly things will not be easy to cover, and Ying Ge should just earn the spirit stones of those monks who died accidentally. In this way, even if someone investigates, he can shirk it.
Sui Xing and the monk took the lead to walk down the stone steps, and Ying Ge motioned for Zuo Hu and his party to follow, and walked down a downward spiral stone staircase, which was narrow and steep, and it was necessary to step down carefully, and more than forty people, lined up in a long line, and walked down the stairs in turn.
After walking for half a cup of tea, I saw a huge space, the floor of the stone hall where Zuo Hu was located before turned out to be the top of this space, and the exposed part of the stone steps in the space was added with iron cable guardrails, which extended downward.
Suddenly, without the protection of the stone wall, walking on the stone steps is like stepping into the air, which makes people feel uneasy, for fear that they will step on the wrong step and fall down.
The huge space is not empty, from top to bottom, there are seven or eight suspended suspension bridges made of fine iron chains, the suspension bridge is very wide, very large, it seems that the weight is not light, and it is also very strong, and there are people carrying it one after another, or two people carrying large pieces of spiritual stone raw ore, moving from one side to the other. They were silent, just buried themselves in work, and their faces were tattooed with the words "immortal prisoner". Obviously, these monks have either committed a crime, or they are captives from other countries, digging spiritual stone veins here to work as coolies!
The stone staircase is like a white ribbon in this huge space, extending to the bottom, and as it gets deeper and deeper, the bottom of the blurry and dim space finally appears in the left eye.
There is a circular sinkhole at the bottom of the space, with a diameter of about thousands of zhang, and there are tens of thousands of tons of spirit stone ore piled up in the pit.
For the mining of the original spiritual stone, Zuo Hu has seen it in some classics, first by the experienced spiritual monks to find the location with the spiritual stone mine, and then send the monks to dig the roadway at a fixed point, the direction of the roadway and the depth and width are determined by the distribution of the spirit stone, therefore, the roadway passage mined in the mountain range is very complicated, which requires the monks who are at least the foundation period to stabilize the roadway with spiritual power in sections, to prevent damage caused by the collapse of the mountain stone during the mining process, the mined spirit stone ore is uniformly stored in the sinkhole, transported out of the mountain range by the monks in batches, and then the team composed of the elders of the Yuan Infant Period of the Chiba Palace will screen and refine the raw ore in a unified manner, and finally becomes a spirit stone that can be used by monks.
From the raw ore of the spirit stone to the spirit stone that can be used, this set of processes requires a lot of monk labor.
On the downward stone steps, Zuo Hu's eyes flashed, and this time he came out to perform the task, which can be regarded as gaining a lot of knowledge.
The group was getting closer and closer to the sinkhole, only to feel a strong spiritual power rushing towards them, although these were only raw ores with impurities, but they were better than a large number, and the spiritual power gathered was also quite amazing. It is no wonder that although those immortal prisoners are mining raw ore day and night, they can support the heavy workload, and I think it is also thanks to this kind of working environment with abundant spiritual power.
The group finally walked down the stone steps and stood around the sinkhole, and on one side of the sinkhole was a rather large and spectacular cave, the cave had been hewn out, and the wide ground was paved with bronze bricks, which was very flat, and I did not know where it led.
"This time, your mission is to transport a thousand tons of spirit stone ore back to the palace. The goatee's star said to Shadow. Shadow Ge nodded, "Understood!"
"Seniors, let's arrange for the Cow to come in and load the car!" instructed Sui Xing to a middle-aged monk who had been following him.
The years received the order to turn around and walk into the cave where the copper bricks were laid, and soon there was a huge sound of footsteps and wheels crushing the ground in the depths of the cave, and the figure of a beast was reflected from the hole, it seemed that there was also light in the cave, everyone looked into the cave curiously, and with the footsteps getting closer and closer, Zuo Hu finally saw the true face of this beast, a strong bull beast. Unlike the cows of the mortal world, they are covered in glass-colored scales, with only two symmetrical red hairs near their faces.
It was lassoed with a golden chain and a two-wheeled cart several feet long and wide and made of iron frame and brass construction. Standing on the back of the ox, he held in both hands the reins of an iron chain full of barbs, which crossed the pipa bone from the back of the oxen beast, and he pulled the iron reins tightly with great difficulty, driving the beast to walk slowly. When the ox cart was placed next to the sinkhole, the ox stood aside on the back of the ox, still holding the reins in his hand, and looked at the cow beast very cautiously.
Sui Xing pointed to the bull beast and said to Ying Ge, "This is the Celestial Cow! Born with divine power, it is best to use it as a tool to pull the raw ore for thousands of miles, but you must control it well, the iron cable that pierces its pipa bone must not be out of your grasp, otherwise, once the Celestial Ox gets out of control, even the elders of the Yuan Infant Stage may not be able to subdue it, and run away from this beast, but you will have to bear a big responsibility!" Don't worry, Lord Suixing, I'll be careful!" "It's not once or twice that Ying Ge has been in charge of escorting the spirit stone raw mine, and he knows very well what is at stake, but a handover process like this must be done.
Sui Xing lowered his head and let out a few sounds, and soon after, more than a dozen immortal prisoners with face tattoos came out of the darkness around him, "Carry a thousand tons of raw ore and load it on the ox cart!" After the immortal prisoners got the order, they transported their spiritual power, each of them moved several times their own weight of the raw ore, and carefully stacked it on the ox cart, the raw ore was several times heavier than ordinary stones, although these prisoner immortals also had some cultivation, but after a long time, their physical strength and spiritual power were gone, and their actions began to become slower. Sui Xing waved a rattan whip in his hand and whipped those who slowed down, and after the immortal prisoner suffered pain, he didn't dare to resist, and he really worked hard.
Zuo Hu frowned, "Will this cause these immortal prisoners to rebel and riot, it should be difficult to control." "Some of these monks' cultivation is not weaker than the years and the stars, and it seems that only these two people are in charge here, in the face of so many immortal prisoners, they use harsh methods, it is easy to provoke desperate resistance, how can these two people control the situation without losing control? Zuo Hu was curious for a moment, and asked in a low voice the doubts in his heart.
Originally, he didn't expect that someone would answer him, but Sui Xing smiled at him, "This kid doesn't know, their soul blood is in my hands, as long as I want to, I can kill them in an instant, but if you are obedient, not only will you not die, but you may also recover your free body, therefore, no one will be stupid enough to start a riot!"
Zuo Hu nodded, yes, they are willing to do coolies here, they must have a handle in the hands of others, otherwise who will be obediently manipulated, "Thank you seniors for your advice." Sui Xing smiled and said to Shadow Ge, "This kid is very interesting!" Shadow Ge just glanced at Zuo Hu lightly, and didn't say anything.
