Chapter 9: The Eyes
Soon it was the end of the month, and it was the deadline to hand in the three-leaf spirit flower, and the Thousand Cave Cliff became difficult to be lively again.
Zhang Hao still had no interest in watching the punishment of whipping, and stayed in his cave to cultivate.
Li Ran shouted outside: "Zhang Hao, hurry up, there is a senior brother above!"
What are you doing in such a dark and cold place at the bottom?
Zhang Hao walked out with some curiosity, turned around and looked at the entrance of the plank road, and saw a familiar person.
The senior brother in Li Ran's mouth is Zhao Dao, who led Zhang Hao to the Thousand Caves Cliff, the little fat man who never forgot the braised pork.
"Do you know what's going on?" Zhang Hao asked Li Ran casually.
Li Ran shook his head, "No one knows, just notify everyone to gather." ”
Zhang Hao and Li Ran followed the crowd and walked over.
When everyone in the bottom cave was almost there, Zhao Dao said loudly: "You are all disciples who have been in the beginner for one year, I came today on behalf of Senior Brother to ask, if anyone has volunteered to join Senior Brother's command, and hand over two three-leaf spirit flowers to Senior Brother every year, if there is, take a step forward!"
"And what if you don't want to?" immediately shouted the bold ones hiding in the crowd.
Zhao Dao smiled, "If you don't want to, Senior Brother won't be reluctant, go back to your cave." ”
Suddenly, there was a whisper in the crowd......
Li Ran pulled Zhang Hao's cuffs, "Do you want to join?"
Zhang Hao didn't answer immediately, he was still thinking about it:
Why didn't Senior Brother force everyone to join? In this way, he could get more Trifolium Spirit Flowers! Could it be because of the existence of Lord Deacon? That's why he said voluntarily? Since it wasn't forced, how could he get people to hand over two Trifolium Spirit Flowers?
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao looked up at Zhao Dao more, and saw that he was not in a hurry or slow, it seemed that there was no shortage of people under the command of the senior brother, and he didn't seem to care if he could recruit people to join this time, it was more like a routine walk.
So Zhang Hao made a decision!
Zhang Hao replied to Li Ran: "I am ready to join, and I advise you to join too." ”
Li Ran frowned, "But I have to hand over two three-leaf spirit flowers every year......!"
"I can help you pay it! "Zhang Hao has always kept the matter of the spirit stone in mind, and this time he finally found an opportunity.
Li Ran was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, "You have helped me a lot before, don't ......"
Zhang Hao raised his hand to interrupt Li Ran's words, "Will you join Senior Brother with me?"
Li Ran hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily, she actually cared more about maintaining a relationship with Zhang Hao all the time, after all, there are not many people in this world who are willing to help you!
Zhang Hao pulled Li Ran out of the crowd and came to Zhao Dao.
Zhao Dao looked at Zhang Hao, thought for a while, and then suddenly said: "It's you! You are really a smart person, and it is not in vain that I told you so much last time." ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhao! I will trouble Senior Brother Zhao to take care of it in the future. Zhang Hao bowed to Zhao Dao.
Zhao Dao accepted the salute calmly, "Don't be so polite, we will all be under the command of the senior brother in the future, and we should take care of each other." ”
Five more men stepped forward, while the others slowly dispersed.
Zhao Dao said to the seven people: "If you join the command of the senior brother, you don't have to live at the bottom anymore, and you will all move to the second floor." You can come to me for anything in the future, and I live in the third cave on the right side of the fifth floor. I remember that from this year onwards, before the end of each year, I must hand over two clover spirit flowers to me, and I will transfer them to Senior Brother on my behalf. ”
After speaking, Zhao Dao turned around and left, completely with a coping attitude.
You can move to the second floor, which is the first benefit!
There was nothing to hesitate about, Zhang Hao and Li Ran immediately went to the second floor to find two adjacent caves to live in.
A day later, it was the day to receive the ten flower seeds, and there was a long queue on the plank road.
Li Ran asked Zhang Hao again, "Will that senior brother help us pick flower seeds this time?"
Zhang Hao smiled bitterly, how could Li Ran, a little girl, never forget this investigation, so she thought about how to get rid of her idea, and it was too annoying to ask once a month:
"Didn't we join Senior Brother's command? I had a falling out with that Senior Brother for this!"
"What's the trouble?" Li Ran didn't understand.
"If you break up, you will make a contradiction, and you will not get along with each other in the future!" Zhang Hao explained again, and emphasized.
Li Ran nodded, her face full of loss, three seeds are going to be born again this month!
After waiting for ten days, Zhang Hao gave birth to a mature three-leaf spirit flower, and then went to the top floor to hand it in.
After the deacon received the three-leaf spirit flower, he closed his eyes and cultivated again.
Zhang Hao knelt on the ground and didn't get up, "Disciple ask Lord Deacon, how can I obtain spirit stones in this Thousand Cave Cliff?"
"Go find your senior brother!" replied the deacon faintly.
Zhang Hao thanked the deacon again, got up and entered the Gongfa cave.
Reciting the "Danshu Outer Dao Spiritual Eyes Part I" exercises, using the comprehension +1 attribute to get today's comprehension progress, Zhang Hao did not leave immediately, but sat down cross-legged to practice, waiting to get tomorrow's 1 point comprehension progress.
And the current progress of comprehending the exercises of "Dan Shu Wai Dao Lingyan Part I" is: 9/15.
Early the next morning, Zhang Hao walked down the plank road and went to the third cave on the right side of the fifth floor to find Zhao Dao.
Because Zhang Hao doesn't know where Senior Brother is! And even if he knows, he can't go over so rashly, it's best to have someone introduce him, such as Senior Brother Zhao Dao!
This may be the second benefit of joining the elder brother!
Outside the cave, Zhang Hao called out, "Is Senior Brother Zhao here? I am Zhang Hao, who joined Senior Brother last time!"
As soon as the voice fell, he heard footsteps coming from inside, and Zhao Dao walked out.
"It's you again!what's the matter?" Zhao Dao still remembered Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao organized the wording, and then said: "Today I asked the deacon about the spirit stone, and the deacon asked me to find the senior brother, so I ......."
"Spirit stone?" Zhao Dao looked at Zhang Hao in surprise for a while, "You have only just started for a year, and at most you are only a second-level Qi cultivator, so you have the courage to enter the waste mine!"
Zhang Hao heard the meaning of Zhao Dao's words, if he wanted to obtain the spirit stone, he had to enter the waste mine, and there was a certain danger in the waste mine, which was not accessible to the disciples of the second layer of qi training.
Zhang Hao bowed and said, "Please also ask Senior Brother Zhao to help introduce the situation of the abandoned mine! I have just started, I don't know anything, please forgive me for any recklessness." ”
Zhao Dao waved his hand indifferently, "I don't think you know, otherwise you wouldn't have inquired about the spirit stone! As for the waste mine, it's a long story, when will you break through to the third layer of qi training!"
After speaking, Zhao Dao turned around and walked into the cave.
Zhang Hao stretched out his hand to stop Zhao Dao, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed again.
To break through to the third layer of Qi training, you have to feed two cyclones, and with your talent for miscellaneous immortal roots, it will take two years!
Zhang Hao had no choice but to go back first.
When passing by Li Ran's cave, Zhang Hao thought about it, he might as well ask Li Ran about the abandoned mine, maybe she would know something, after all, she is a second-generation cultivator!
"Ranran, you come out for a moment. ”
Li Ran walked out, "Zhang Hao, are you looking for me?"
"Do you know the situation of the abandoned mine?" Zhang Hao asked directly.
"Waste mine?" Li Ran was puzzled: "There are many kinds of ore veins in this world, what do you mean by waste mine?"
Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what vein Zhao Dao was referring to, he hesitated for a moment, and replied: "It should be a vein that can obtain spirit stones!"
Li Ran suddenly said, "You're talking about the spirit mine! I've often heard my grandfather talk about this." ”
Spirit mine, spirit stone vein, Zhang Hao nodded, "Yes, the waste mine I asked refers to the spirit mine!"
"I've heard my grandfather say that there are countless spirit mines in this world, but they are all occupied by the major immortal cultivation forces. And the lower-grade spirit stones, middle-grade spirit stones, and high-grade spirit stones that I talked to you about before were all dug out of these spirit mines, and the hollowed-out spirit mines were the waste mines you asked me about. Li Ran replied.
"Can there still be spirit stones in the hollowed-out waste mine?" Zhang Hao asked urgently, this was the focus of his concern.
After all, in a spirit mine, in addition to the main vein, there are countless branch veins, and these branch veins are irregularly distributed, and some even extend deep underground, which is extremely difficult to mine, and some of them outweigh the losses. ”
If only there were spirit stones in the waste mine!
