Zhao Tiezhu continued to talk about the injustice here. [No pop-ups.]

"Moreover, even if you save money and completely give up the resources between this second contract, and prefer to let your cultivation be interrupted, you will not be able to generate a surplus after the second contract is completed. Unless, you don't even want your own life, or you'll have to go into debt again after the second contract is over. In this way, it goes without saying that thirty years is just an idle time. All in all, once you set foot here, you will never be able to pay off your debts. You will always owe them. ”

Xu Bansheng frowned, he had imagined this place to be very bad before he came, but he never imagined that the real situation here was much worse than he thought.

And he didn't understand that the first contract didn't know what it was, and the resources consumed in the end were greater than those three days, and it was just a matter of being exploited by these guardians, and since the second contract had already preferred to stagnate cultivation to ensure that the task was completed, why would he still owe a debt.

Zhao Tiezhu seemed to see Xu Bansheng's question, sighed deeply, and said with a helpless look on his face: "It's strange, right? Do you think that the first time you suffered was because you thought that these cultivation resources were free, so you owed debts, and the second time it won't be like this again? Hmph, young man, you are really too naïve." It's been a day or two since you've entered the trench, and you've surely noticed that the water in the trench is different from other seawaters, and the aura contained in the sea here is no less than that on land. And it's also cold. If the time is short, it doesn't matter, and their respective cultivation is enough to resist the invasion of this cold. But it's been a long time. You will find that you just stop this chill from your body, and you can't get rid of the chill that has already penetrated your bones, unless you happen to be practicing the fire type exercises, then there is still a glimmer of possibility that you will not be eroded by the chill here. I didn't care about this when I first arrived, but after more than a year, I realized that the slightest bit of cold had almost killed me. The vampires here. Of course, there is a way to help you get rid of this chill, they have a fire elixir. After taking it, the chill in your body will be cleared. But this fire spirit pill is clearly priced at 50,000 spirit stones. Do you know how many spirit stones you can get in exchange for the Spirit Cold Spring if you are allowed to collect it here for three days? It's just 20,000. Although after the completion of the second contract. You can be allowed to collect the Spiritual Cold Spring for half a moon here, but in the fifteenth day, the Spiritual Cold Spring you can collect will only be worth 100,000 spirit stones if it reaches the sky. One hundred thousand spirit stones are to rest on the land, which is indeed a very objective wealth, at least for a humble cultivator like us, if we are lucky, we can even build a successful foundation. But here, it's just the value of two Fire Spirit Pills. It's just a second contract, and you want to accomplish it. It will consume at least two Fire Spirit Pills. ”

Xu Bansheng gasped, he completely understood that the Fire Spirit Pill was by no means a valuable thing. This is simply a means that these guardians can always enslave these loose cultivators in order to prevent them from leaving.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness, these guardians, strictly speaking, were just casual cultivators, and the despicability of human nature could be seen in oppressing their own kind in this way.

"But at least there is a loose cultivation of the fire type exercises, isn't it? Then after the second contract, most of them will still be able to complete the task. Even if you don't have a surplus, you can still get out of this place eventually. And as long as someone leaves, won't the secrets of this place be passed out, how can no one know about the situation here for so many years?"

Zhao Tiezhu smiled miserably, looking at Xu Bansheng's eyes, full of pity, he shook his head and said: "You don't need cultivation resources, if you reach the middle stage of Qi refining, Bigu can reach three or five months, and in three years, you only need to eat ten meals." No matter how expensive this meal is, it can't be sold at a sky-high price, so you think that the cultivators of the Fire Martial Arts can still go out, right? You're still too naïve. Where is this? This is the bottom of the sea, you always need to breathe, right? There are enough spiritual qi tubes in the seawater, and the fire system exercises are naturally not afraid of the cold of the seawater, but what about breathing? How long can you hold your breath for the longest time? Three hours, or five hours? Even if you only need one breath a day, how many breaths are in three years? Thousands of breaths. The first time I settle accounts with you, they won't tell you that you have to deduct the cost of even breathing. If you've already purchased the Fire Elixir and owe enough debt, they won't tell you about it either, as if there was never such a charge. However, if you are practicing fire-based exercises and have not purchased the Fire Spirit Pill, then there is also a charge for breathing. The charge is also very user-friendly, and it is always worth more than the Linghan Spring you get. It gives you hope to pay off your debts, but it never makes you pay them off. ”

Xu Bansheng was still incredulous, and he asked again: "After so many years, is there no accident at all?"

Zhao Tiezhu smiled extremely desolately, and he said: "Yes, of course there will be accidents, and even some people give the few spiritual cold springs in their hands to others in order to be able to leave and die voluntarily, hoping to let one of them leave here and tell all the scattered cultivators about the darkness here." As long as there are no more casual cultivators who come here to collect the Spirit Cold Spring, then these guardians will be considered to have received retribution. However, where is the cultivation that will come here, and where will the cultivation be high? The strongest I have ever seen is only the foundation of the first heaven. And the guardians here, the lowest also have a foundation and a heavy heaven. If they don't want you to leave, do you think you might be able to leave? Anyway, the scattered cultivators have no relatives and no reason, and no one will ever come to avenge them. ”

Xu Bansheng was completely speechless, this place was like a fragrant pie, attracting all hopeful cultivators to come here, but after coming, it was like entering hell, and there was no possibility of leaving. All hope will become incomplete in the blows again and again, and finally disillusioned, and only death can be liberated. However, as long as they are alive, who would be willing to give up their lives? What is the purpose of cultivating immortals? Just to live a few more years. Even if you know that your qualifications are not enough. is still struggling in Zhongshenzhou as a casual cultivator, and it is even more impossible for such a person to be willing to give up his life. So, it can only be year after year. Day after day, he was enslaved to these former pirates, now the Guardians.

"Is it completely impossible to leave?" Xu Bansheng only felt full of pain, he just hoped to give Zhao Tiezhu, the dying man, the last ray of hope, at least make him feel that sooner or later this place will be made public to the world.

Zhao Tiezhu sighed and muttered in a low voice: "You can try, now that you know all this." Then reduce the consumption of resources as much as possible, hopefully after your first contract is completed. Those three days of cold spring gathering will save you from incurring their debts. Perhaps, they will feel that you know very little about this place and will not stop you. That way you still have a chance to leave. I still have some cold springs here. You can take it, I won't be dead anyway. My only hope now is that someone can leave this place alive and reveal the truth about this place, so that the scattered cultivators who are suffering as much as us will not come here to die again. Even if you are a waste picker, you are far better than here. ”

With that, he took out a grain of gravel-sized thing from his arms, handed it to Xu Bansheng, and whispered, "Don't look at this thing is very small." In fact, it is also a space magic weapon, and it was also left to me by my predecessors who died in the past. They pinned their hopes on me, but I couldn't make it happen. I can only pin this hope on you. Regardless of whether you leave in the end or not, you must be careful to keep this grain of sand, here, there is a spiritual cold spring worth 30,000 spirit stones, although there are not many. It can also help you lighten some of the burden. ”

Xu Bansheng did not shirk and solemnly took over the grain of sand. Then he whispered to Zhao Tiezhu: "But if I can leave this place, I will announce this place to the public, and swear that these guys who eat people and don't spit out bones will not die well." If he has the opportunity one day, I will crush it to ashes myself. If you break this oath, you will not die well. ”

Zhao Tiezhu saw Xu Bansheng make a heavy oath, and nodded with relief, as if he was unable to continue to support, and he was tired and had to close his eyes again.

Xu Bansheng hurriedly said again: "Uncle Zhao, don't sleep." ”

Zhao Tiezhu was extremely tired, and said: "I thought that I didn't even have a chance to hand over this grain of sand, but now that I have completed this mission, there is no need to continue to struggle." It is not easy to die. ”

Xu Bansheng was stunned, but Zhao Tiezhu didn't know that Xu Bansheng didn't sign any contract with the Guardian, if he died, this place would inevitably be taken over by other scattered cultivators, and Xu Bansheng would have to change places again. The best way is for Zhao Tiezhu to continue to survive, even if he only retains the last ray of life, so that no one will come, and Xu Bansheng will have a safe place to live.

But how could he say it? For the current Zhao Tiezhu, death is actually the best destination.

Feeling that Zhao Tiezhu's life was passing little by little, his body gradually became as cold as the surrounding seawater, and Xu Bansheng's mood also fell to the bottom.

Before Zhao Tiezhu's soul left his body, Xu Bansheng took the opportunity to collect a small amount of Linghan Spring, and he was the first time he really came into contact with Linghan Spring and felt the magic of this kind of heavenly treasure.

The aura contained in the Linghan Spring is even more than that of ordinary low-grade spirit stones, but a small drop contains more than one low-grade spirit stone. The natural cold meaning in it is on par with the cold iron soft sword, and it is definitely the best thing to use as a coolant for refining alchemy. And a magic weapon, or elixir, has a self-evident meaning for immortal cultivators, and it is no wonder that this spiritual cold spring will attract the covetousness of immortal cultivators all over the world.

Those guardians were obviously able to sense the life and death of these scattered cultivators, and when Zhao Tiezhu's last trace of anger also dissipated, there were guardians of the foundation building realm who rushed here, and Xu Bansheng of course used the invisibility talisman in advance, and hid his body again, hiding between two rocks.

The guardian came to check on Zhao Tiezhu, and after confirming that he was dead, he searched his body all over and found the small bottle that collected the Linghan Spring, and then threw Zhao Tiezhu's body into the sea without care, and I don't know why, a few sea fish that had never been seen in his life swam over, and in the blink of an eye, they ate Zhao Tiezhu's bones cleanly.

Looking at this scene, Xu Bansheng silently recited a transcendent scripture for Zhao Tiezhu in his heart, and then remembered the guardian's face deeply in his mind, if there was a chance, Xu Bansheng would not mind killing that person to find some obsession for Zhao Tiezhu. To be continued
