Chapter 10: To the Mine (Ask for Collection)
The thunder roared violently, the wind and the torrential rain danced in the air, the creatures were restless like the sound of the wind, and thousands of electric arrows flashed each other in Hanshuang City.
This was Lin Xi's first rainstorm day after coming to Hanshuang City, Lin Xi and Han Xiang'er sat opposite each other on the city tower to drink tea and enjoy the gorgeous beauty of nature.
"Xiang'er, I'm probably going to leave for a while, and I've already said goodbye to Lord Han City in the morning," Lin Xi said as he picked up the teacup and looked at Xiang'er.
"Huh, where are you going?", Han Xiang'er hurriedly asked.
Her body twitched as if she had been struck by the lightning flashing above the eaves, and her time with Lin Xi had made her accustomed to his presence.
He was like the little bluestone that fell into the plain lake, causing ripples in Han Xianger's ordinary life.
"I'm going to go to the eastern mining area to mine, hehe, I can't always let you pay for me," Lin Xi joked.
Coming to this strange world, Lin Xi felt extremely lucky to meet this Han Xiang'er, and Xiang'er had taken care of himself in recent times, which made him grateful to this lovely little girl from the bottom of his heart.
"What are you doing there, do you have other purposes?", Han Xiang'er asked.
"Hehe, I have some other plans, I will set off with the mine guards after the rain," Lin Xi said.
Got up and walked to the city wall, looking at the electric light flashing in the sky in the distance, his eyes gradually burned, looking forward to the natural alpine training ground in the distance, and looking forward to the day when he could have strong strength.
"Is it so fast?" Han Xiang'er's tone showed reluctance, and she didn't care about asking anything else, she moved the lotus step lightly, graceful, and came to Lin Xi's side.
"Brother Lin, there are some things I want to say sorry to you, I was discriminated against because of my delicate corner, and I always consoled myself with the identity of Yuan Tai, I'm sorry, I know that you work harder than any of us, I admire you", Han Xiang'er bowed her head and said.
Getting along with Lin Xi, without the competition of the children of the same clan, there is no need to worry about someone laughing at her because of her delicate corners, such a relaxed life makes her enjoy it very much, but when she sees Lin Xi working hard, it also makes her feel a sense of guilt in her heart.
"Hehe, fool, don't blame yourself, everyone will have a vulnerable side, it's just not on the surface like me, I hope that the next time we meet, my strength can also be recognized by you", Lin Xi gently tapped Xiang'er's little head and said.
While the two were chatting, the thunder and lightning dissipated, the wind and torrential rain receded, and the ten flying demonic beasts and griffins were neatly lined up in front of the main gate of the city tower, Lin Xi returned to his residence to pick up his bags, and came to the assembly point to wait for departure.
"Brother Lin, give you this", Han Xiang'er came to Lin Xi's side from the crowd and stretched out her palm and said.
"Is this a storage utensil ring?", Lin Xi asked as he looked at the bronze engraved agate stone ring in his palm.
"Well, there are no valuable things in this, that is, some daily necessities have been prepared, as well as two basic cultivation techniques of Yuan Body Realm Gathering Yuan and Embryo Creation, I hope you can use it, the captain of this mine guard team is surnamed Cao, I have already instructed him, if you have anything to ask him for help", Han Xiang'er instructed.
"Try to inject a trace of Mi Yuan, this Mi Ring will recognize the Lord, and assimilate with the owner's Yuan attributes, as long as you mobilize that trace of Mi Yuan that has been injected into the ring, you can explore the space inside the ring, and you can also call up the items inside the Mi Ring", Han Xiang'er continued.
Looking at Lin Xi's confused expression, Han Xiang'er once again roughly explained the method of mobilizing Mi Yuan in her body, urging Lin Xi to operate pranayama on the spot, and with a lot of effort, she finally completed the recognition of the Mi Ring.
In the middle of the night, all the members of the mine guard team arrived, fifty people sat on ten griffins, Lin Xi squeezed one of the griffins, and everyone waved goodbye to relatives and friends on the ground.
The griffin swayed the huge lion head and roared, after the rain you can see the white mist of breathing brought out by the roar, the vulture body is majestic and large, the claws are like dragon claws, the green scales cover it, stretch the black wings, there are more than ten zhang, the wings shake and the wind blows, the wings rise into the air, and fly towards the east with everyone.
After four days of traveling, in the afternoon of the fourth day, the escort team arrived at the No. 48 mine in the eastern mining area, the mining area of the mountain is craggy, the wooden frame is towering and stacked, there are many dark and deep mine caves under the shelf, and on the mountainside on the other side of the mountain that has not been mined, there are two long rows of wooden sheds neatly built, presumably the living quarters of the guards and miners.
After a short rest, under the leadership of Captain Cao, they completed the change of guard with the original mine guard, and after the change of guard, Captain Cao came to Lin Xi and said:
"Brother Lin, I've kept you waiting, Miss explained to her subordinates before leaving, this time you can mine freely when you come to the mine, and the harvest you get, in addition to paying the fees required for processing, no other fees will be levied All belong to you, this is Ge Lao, responsible for arranging the work of the miners, I will hand you over to him, let him arrange the next work for you."
Captain Cao waved his hand to the old man sitting in front of the black case under the pergola not far away, and the old man got up respectfully and walked to Captain Cao and Lin Xi, and saluted the two respectfully.
"Lin Gongzi, the life of this mine is not as good as in the city, I can only wronged you, everyone lives under the same roof, and we sleep in a chase shop, we open the mine during the day, rest at night, work more and get more, every three months, a group of guards who change guards will bring some flight attendant griffons over and bring back some miners who want to go home", Ge Lao led Lin Xi to arrange the bed and said.
In Ge Lao's eyes, Lin Xi had fine skin and tender meat, a fair and handsome face, bright clothes, and the vitality exuded by the Yuan body was also very thin.
"Old Ge, I'm sorry for your trouble," Lin Xi said politely.
"Lin Gongzi is tired from working all day, so I will take a break today, and I will arrange mining work for Lin Gongzi tomorrow," Ge Lao said with a smile.
"No, Ge Lao, let someone lead me to work in the well today, I don't feel tired", Lin Xi stretched his body and said, looking eager to try.
Ge Lao was surprised, but he didn't expect Lin Xi to take the initiative to work in the mine as soon as he arrived, and Ge Lao called a swarthy and rough man named Huzi and asked him to lead Lin Xi down the mine.
Huzi took Lin Xi along the mine road towards the depths of the mine, the mine was not as dark as from the outside of the mine, only to see that every few zhang on the walls on both sides of the mine, there would be a candlestick like a candlestick hanging on the wall, the candlestick was crowned with a small fire element spar, the fire element spar was stimulated to a faint yellow light, illuminating the total mine road.
After a while, Lin Xi crossed the mine tunnel and came to the operation area, where more than a dozen miners were mining with their bare hands.
"Brother Hu, you're not joking with me, are you? Are you all mining with your bare hands? How can you mine without tools?" Lin Xi asked as he looked sideways at Huzi, his smile stiff and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Brother Lin, how inconvenient it is to use tools, troublesome, you see, how fast you can mine by hand", Hu Zi inserted his bare hands into the wall next to him and cut out a piece of ore, and said while looking at Lin Xi.
"Hehe, you're awesome", Lin Xi stiffly raised the corners of his mouth and gave Huzi a thumbs up.
Lin Xi remembered the Mi Ring that Xiang'er gave him before leaving, and rubbed his fingers on the Mi Ring, and noticed that several sets of mining tools were neatly placed in the Mi Ring, and he couldn't help but be happy and secretly grateful.
"It's still Xiang'er who has thought it through, and the tools are ready for me", Lin Xi smiled and whispered to herself.
After coming to the mine, Lin Xi dug up the mine every day to be close to madness, always tired to the limit of his body before he was willing to rest, every time he transported the ore to the processing area, he piled up the ore basket to the limit of his body's weight, under the stimulation of this high-intensity body, Mi Yuan's transformation of the body was also accelerated.
In the first few days, Lin Xi took the shovel to dig, and the daily output was also pitiful, which attracted the ridicule of many mine workers and guards, and with the later work of Lin Xi forgetting to sleep and eat, the output was also increasing day by day, and this ridicule gradually disappeared, and at the same time, through his own hard work, he won the respect of everyone in the mine, and now everyone in the No. 48 mine knows that there is a new crazy boy named Lin Xi.
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, and the time of the year passes quietly.
Lin Xi still mines in the depths of the mine every day, the difference is that he no longer needs to use a mining shovel to mine, and the mining speed is several times faster than the miners working in the same mine, and now Lin Xi's figure has also changed slightly, his height is close to two meters, his physique has grown a little, his muscles are distinct, and his former tall and thin body has become a burly man.
Lin Xi's Yuan Body has been transformed for a year, and his Yuan Body has reached the level of the Sixth Yuan Body, but vaguely feels that it seems to be stronger than the Sixth Yuan Body, and when the Yuan Body was cultivated to the fourth Yuan Body, Lin Xi had a dispute with a miner of the fourth Yuan Body in the mine, and Lin Xi defeated the opponent of the same Yuan Body in a single stick of incense.
At this time, Lin Xi's Yuan Body had cultivated to the sixth level, and what he wanted to challenge the most was the newly changed guard captain, because he was the only one in the entire No. 48 Mine who was a sixth-grade Yuan Body Yuan Star Middle Realm cultivator.
