Volume 1 Strayed Into the Otherworld Chapter 5 The Mining Duo
Xiao Chentian came to call Shang Shulang to set off before dawn, this person didn't talk much, and even cherished words like gold.
The two walked silently, and only Shang Shulang occasionally asked him that he would answer.
It took a morning to walk from the abandoned city stronghold to the mine, but Xiao Chen's walking speed was relatively fast, and he arrived before noon.
It was a mine with a diameter of four or five hundred meters, filled with beehive-like caverns that led to the ground.
There were several camps outside the pit, and Xiao Chen led Shang Shulang into the camp and went straight to the tallest tent.
There were two strong men standing at the door of the tent, and Xiao Chen called them Da Hei and Er Hei.
The poor of another world also have a title, and there is no such complex full name as Ivanovich Lebuning, Habasar Teoutrage, etc.
But giving a name like a dog is also auspicious, and the ghosts and gods dislike it, so that they can survive.
Da Hei grinned: "Brother Xiao Chen, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, this is Joe moving the mountain, to be a miner. β
The tent was covered with a viscous carpet, an oil lamp, and a low red table, behind which sat a large man.
"Nine-layer skin" sat on the ground almost 1.6 meters, his thick limbs were swollen with muscles, his face was full of meat, and his two huge eyes looked Shang Shulang up and down, his expression obviously showing disdain.
"Xiao Chen, at his height, can he afford a pickaxe and a basket?"
"Brother Jiu, people are small and have great strength, Qiao Qianshan has the strength, you take a closer look!"
The nine-layer skin smiled: "Take a closer look? You still have to give face, you can't dig it, you can't eat enough, it's none of my business, go ahead. β
However, he did not refuse Shang Shulang to join the ranks of miners, there was not much more than him, it was just a matter of giving a favor.
Xiao Chen nodded, led Shang Shulang to turn around and walked out of the tent.
The two of them went to get pickaxes, mining lamps and baskets, went directly to the pit, and began their mining careers.
As we went deeper, we came to a place where there were no other miners, and the stone walls here glowed in the light and looked very hard.
Xiao Chen said: "That's it, I'll teach you mining." When the basket is full, he returns to the big mine to exchange food or coins, and he has to hand over half of it himself, and the other half of it. β
The pickaxe is really heavy, the stone wall of the mine is really hard, and when the pickaxe goes down, the nails are extremely crisp, but the muscles will be sore for a while.
"Find the cracks...... Pay attention to the rhythm, relax when you get up and take advantage of the falling momentum of the pickaxe..... Foot, standing, right, right,..... The power goes all the way from the soles of the feet, well, the whole body is chained, like a whip thrown out......"
Xiao Chen imparts experience from time to time.
Experience seems simple, but it is very valuable, and Shang Shulang even feels that there seems to be an unknown martial arts skill hidden in it.
He learns very seriously and quickly, and he is decently in half a day, and he really makes some progress.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but be impressed, he was a little surprised, Qiao Qianshan is not stupid?
......
On the first day of mining, only one piece of ore was dug up, but Xiao Chen dug up four pieces, and Shang Shulang owed Xiao Chen two pieces of bread.
The next day, he dug up three mines of copper ore and owed a piece of bread.
On the third day, seven pieces of ore, on the fourth day eight, on the fifth day, he paid off Xiao Chen's food......
"You're a fast learner, you're a skilled miner! I've got to go back to the ruined city to patrol. β
Xiao Chen left, and he entered the mine just to take him and take him to become a skilled miner.
Shang Shulang looked at his back and was grateful! It is not easy for the poor, so he knows how to help each other better, and knows that unity can survive.
Xiao Chen is a good person, able to help others, and has always taught him how to mine, so Xiao Chen is respected by people both in the stronghold and in the Nine Layers of Skin.
Looking back on his infiltration into another world, he has encountered bad people and seen the kindness of the people at the bottom, which has had a great impact on Shang Shulang.
Although he didn't have special treatment like other traversers, he didn't feel that he had gained less at all, that was the reality and simple understanding of people's hearts and human nature, which was not worse than any golden finger.
The next day, at noon, the basket was full, a speed that surprised even him.
When Xiao Chen was there, his perception didn't dare to let go of it.
After Xiao Chen left, Shang Shulang had no scruples, and dug out a lot of copper and iron ore with a clanging and clicking, and even rested for a while.
He came out in the late afternoon and exchanged it for food and a silver coin.
Turning around and about to rest, he suddenly saw seven big men coming from not far away, communicating with each other, and they spoke in English!
I'm not going to be in the world, a ritual to South America or Africa, right?
The gang saw Shang Shulang staring at them, and one of them scolded the vicious man.
βwhat do you looking at? SHIT!β
Shang Shulang turned his head and scolded psychologically, NMB, it's quite a drag!
"Qiao Qianshan!They're outsiders!" Erhei, who was in charge of exchanging food next to him, smiled, not caring about the other party's provocation.
Shang Shulang glanced at the big man who was far away, and was ruthless in his heart, seize the opportunity and kill you!
Erhei was stunned for a moment, and muttered in his heart, this kid's eyes are vicious, not a good stubble.
I used to see things badly, and I had to tell my eldest brother when I went back, and I had to be careful with this guy in the future.
Shang Shulang watched the outsiders enter the mine and asked Erhei, "They also mine?"
"How is it possible, they are exploring, there are dangerous monsters and monsters below the depths of the mine, all of them are treasures, these outsiders are going down to make a fortune, hehe..."
Shang Shulang nodded to Erhei, and carried the basket on his back into the mine where outsiders entered.
The two blacks are mentally nervous and go to do things? One to seven, isn't this a death? Fools also know who wins and who loses... ... I won't see this kid at night, look at it, yes.
......
Shang Shulang tracked all the way, just like a mouse tracking an underground waterway, and he was familiar with the road.
Whether these people really want to catch monsters and monsters, he is not sure.
Shang Shulang stared at the footprints of the seven big men from afar, not daring to get too close, I heard that there are martial artists in the other world, and their perception ability is also very strong, and if they don't say it well, they will be discovered, but they will lose their lives.
The deeper and deeper it went, it was more than twice as deep as where the miners went, as if they were about to enter the underworld.
The yin wind was getting heavier and heavier, and Shang Shulang seemed to have a familiar feeling.
In the cracks of the underground waterways, it seems that this kind of wind penetrates into the bone marrow coldly.
However, he seemed to enjoy it, not only feeling uncomfortable, but even reluctant.
Why? Is it because of the mucus film that seeps into the body? Likely!
Is this one of the perks of infiltrating another world? It's a little less, but it's very effective!
