Chapter 369: Exploring the Middle Layer
The chaotic footsteps came from far and near, and there were more than ten people, and the sound of words became clearer and clearer, reaching Yi Xuan's ears.
"Senior brother, how do you know where such a remote path leads?"
"How do you know the master's plan, the idiots of that class of Jiyang Mansion are all kept in the dark!Haha, you still have to make three chapters with us, how do you know that our Tianwu Pavilion has already begun to arrange it a few months ago, and every day the spirit stones produced in the spirit mine are intercepted and hidden in the depths of the mine, and they will be all taken out when this gambling fight. ”
"It's no wonder that I always feel that the daily output of spirit stones has decreased a lot recently, and it turns out that they have been hidden by the master. But so many spirit stones are piled up together, in case they are inadvertently found by others, it is not a serious loss. ”
"It's just unfounded! You think that the elders of the sect can't even think of such a simple thing. The cave where the spirit stone is hidden is dug on a remote and barren branch road, and there are many phantom arrays set up along the road, so that even if someone inadvertently breaks in, it will not be discovered. ”
"Hehe, senior brother, don't blame, where would I have thought that the elders have so many arrangements. ”
When Yi Xuan heard this, he finally understood the origin of these many spirit stones, it turned out that the monks of Ninglong Mansion had been arranging them a long time ago in order to fight for the spirit mines this time, and they had already hidden many spirit stones in the mine, if it wasn't for their own incarnation to find out, I am afraid that Jiyang Mansion would suffer a big loss this time. Now these spirit stones have been put into the space where Xiao Zhong is located, and see how the monks of Ninglong Mansion end.
Thinking of this, Yi Xuan couldn't help but secretly laugh, but heard a panicked shout from the mine above his head: "Where are the spirit stones? Why are all the spirit stones gone?" followed by countless chaotic footsteps, and the monk who spoke behind exclaimed: "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" Senior brother fainted, come quickly, people......" Yi Xuan estimated that the senior brother led people to harvest the spirit stones, but found that all the spirit stones were gone, and he fainted to the ground in a fit of rage.
Seeing that there was no other important information, and he was afraid of being noticed, Yi Xuan slowly sank deeper into the ground, and then quickly returned to the place agreed with Di Xing along the way he came. In fact, it was only half an hour between the round trip, and when Yi Xuan returned to the original place, Di Xing was still waiting in his hiding place, without any restlessness.
"Senior brother, I'm back!Let's continue to look for spirit stones inside!haha!" Yi Xuan beckoned Di Xing to continue on his way, because he couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of the huge amount of spirit stones he had captured.
"Senior brother, what are you happy about?" Di Xing saw Yi Xuan's smirk for no reason, and hurriedly asked the reason.
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly remembered something funny!" The more Yi Xuan tried to hold back, the more the corners of his mouth rose, and finally he simply smiled back and forth.
Di Xing didn't know what to say at first, but later he was also infected by Yi Xuan's laughter, and the two brothers and sisters lay on the ground without any image and laughed breathlessly. It took a long time to get up and follow the map provided by the sect to explore the depths of the mine.
On the other side, the senior brother of the Tianwu Pavilion of Ninglong Mansion was quickly rescued, knowing that the loss of the spirit stone was very important, so he didn't dare to make any more stops, stumbled back to the ground from the mine, reported the situation to the high-level of the sect, and soon passed the information to the Yuanying monk stationed in the Chiyan Valley in the Tianwu Pavilion, and it was also the initiator of the planning of this competition for the spirit stone, Ji Xingqi.
"What, do you say it again? Are all the spirit stones gone? This is impossible, you can quickly tell the details of the story, if there is the slightest deception, the old man will let you never be able to live beyond the life!" When Ji Xingqian heard this, his scalp was almost about to explode, and he let out an earth-shattering roar.
The unlucky senior brother was almost shocked to death by the elders of his own sect, so he dared to hesitate, trembling and telling all the stories of himself and his junior brothers entering the mine, the more Ji Xingqian listened, the more his brows wrinkled, and finally twisted into a "Chuan" character.
"In this way, you didn't find any anomalies along the way, but the hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in the mine did disappear strangely, and there were no clues at all. It's really useless waste, come here, let me arrest all the monks who entered the mine, and everyone will search for my soul, I don't believe that I can't find a clue! I want to investigate this matter thoroughly, dare to break ground on the head of our Tianwu Pavilion, the old man will make him regret coming to the world!" Ji Xingqian interrogated again and again and did not hear any valuable information, and became more and more furious, vowing to find out the person who stole the spirit stone at any cost.
Yi Xuan and Di Xing followed the map all the way without stopping, and they had already reached the end of the upper mine, and in front of them was an entrance to the middle layer. Along the way, Yi Xuan carefully observed, although he also encountered a few mining areas containing spirit stones, but the reserves were not rich, and even if they were collected, they were only in the number of hundreds. Because of the comparison, Yi Xuan really didn't want to waste his efforts for such a little spirit stone, so he wanted to persuade Di Xing to go down to the middle layer to take a look.
I didn't want to wait for Yi Xuan to open his mouth, but Di Xing said first: "Senior brother, we have come to the entrance of the middle level, since we want to win glory for the master, it is better to take the risk of entering the middle level and give it a try, the two of us join forces, and one or two monks in the middle stage of the knot are not a problem." How's it going, brother?"
"Haha, I was about to ask you, but we thought of going together. Of course, we have to go to the middle level to have a look, otherwise the master and uncle take such care of us, if we don't want to forge ahead, how can we repay the master, go, go down and have a look!"
Yi Xuan and Di Xing hit it off and entered the middle layer of the mine without hesitation. The space in the middle is wider, but due to the limited number of monks entered, the mine is not as accessible as the upper level, and most of the branch roads are undeveloped except for a few main passages, so there is a greater chance of finding spirit stones. The two of them took the spirit stone mining tool issued by the sect - the hoe with a beak and knocked around on the cave wall, and finally found a vein with a relatively rich spirit stone at a bend.
Yi Xuan and Di Xing took turns to knock on the cave wall with a hoe made of stainless steel, and every time they would drop a large piece of ore, which was mixed with scattered spirit stones, so one person dug and one person screened the spirit stones, and soon dug out a passage dozens of zhang long, and harvested more than one hundred and thirty spirit stones at the same time. Because all the storage bags he carried with him had been handed over, Di Xing used the bags woven from the ice silk issued by the Taixu Gate to put away all the spirit stones and hang them around his waist, and continued to dig forward.
Yi Xuan suddenly held down Di Xing and made a silent gesture: "Shhhh
