Judging from the map indication on the jade slip, the Shaoling Mine Cave is only a hundred miles away from the Snow God Peak, and for Liu Yiwen's current speed, it can be reached in less than an hour.

The snowfield below is a vast expanse, and the silvery white earth with the blue sky makes people feel ethereal. Thinking of the time when I was in Jinggu Xiaohu, I suddenly realized the "falling star" method, perhaps it is this kind of quiet world that allows monks to practice with a pure heart and few desires and no distractions!

After flying like this for a while, a huge ravine appeared in front of me. His heart moved slightly, and he controlled the wind boat to stop above the canyon. This valley is extremely deep, I am afraid that there are hundreds of zhang, and the distance between the two sides is about ten zhang.

He slowly fell, looking around the surrounding environment, there were cliffs on both sides, and there were many places with long ice hangings, and the stone walls were already thick with ice, and as far as the eye could see, they were all frozen and could not see any difference.

He made a slight direction and made his way slowly to the west.

After a stick of incense, he landed in front of a seemingly unremarkable ice wall. Suddenly, an extra piece of apricot-colored rune paper appeared in his right hand, and he whispered a few words of incantation, and then threw the rune paper forward.

Just as the object was about to hit the ice, a faint aura flashed in the void, and a nearly transparent curtain of light rippled like water waves, and the rune paper sank into it without hindrance and disappeared.

A moment later, a young man about his age stepped out of the light curtain. This person is emaciated, fair-skinned, and dressed in a cyan Confucian shirt, giving people a sense of civility and politeness.

Liu Yiwen bowed his hand slightly, and said: "Liu Yiwen in the Lower Imperial Sword Villa was introduced here by Uncle Qu of your family. With that, he handed over the jade plate and the jade slip.

The young man was slightly stunned, took the two things, put the jade slip on his eyebrows and looked at it, and said calmly: "It's useless in Xia Qin, please come with me." Liu Yiwen followed closely and entered the light curtain.

As soon as Fang entered, the scenery inside changed greatly, and a huge mine cave with a diameter of about twenty zhang appeared in front of them. There was also a low echo of ding-dong, which was far away, but still clearly audible, and it should be the sound of mining chiseling.

The stone walls of the cave are covered with lighting stones of various sizes, and the light is not very dim. On both sides stood two young disciples, a woman and a man, and their cultivation was only in the realm of Qi refining. There was also a row of wooden boxes in front of them, which were stacked with mined spirit ores, emitting a faint spiritual light.

Qin Yong pointed to the mine cave and introduced: "Although this mine has only been mined for decades, according to the senior brother, this was originally the former site of an ancient monk, from which some steles, tripods, utensils and other objects were excavated, and later found that there are several rare spiritual ores here, and the yield is not low, this Qinglin iron ore is one of them." ”

Liu Yiwen nodded and said, "With such a large amount here, there must be a lot of spiritual ore reserves. Qin Yong smiled slightly, noncommittal.

At this time, two young men covered in dirt slowly walked out of the mine, they were dressed in heavy cotton clothes and felt hats, and their expressions were a little tired. They walked straight to the row of wooden boxes, removed the bamboo baskets from the back, and put several pieces of ore of different sizes into them.

The two Qi Refining disciples began to concentrate on chanting the incantation, and then two red lights flashed and hit the dirty-clothed young man, and a faint red shield appeared on them. Liu Yiwen suddenly realized that he had a deep understanding of the bitter cold here, and without the blessing of the shield, the two mortals would not be able to support it for too long.

As he looked, he asked, "How many ordinary people are there here?"

Qin Wufu said: "There are about a hundred people." Most of them were wrongdoers, some were for a living, and a few were petitioners. ”

Liu Yiwen was stunned and said, "Petition?" He can understand the first two, but the last one is indeed too unexpected.

Qin Wufu smiled slightly, and said, "That's right! Some mortals who have petitioned for the favor of the sect and want to do some miscellaneous work for the sect to repay their vows, they have been assigned to work here for a year, which can be regarded as a reward!"

Liu Yiwen nodded frequently and said, "This is indeed the first time I have heard of it, but these people do know about Entubao, which is rare." ”

Qin Yong paused for a moment, and then said, "Uncle Qu has already made it very clear in the jade slip, so I'll bring Tan Biao over!"

Liu Yiwen hurriedly said, "Thank you, Qin Daoyou." With that, Qin Wufu walked towards the depths of the mine, and he looked around, thinking about how to persuade Tan Biao.

After a meal, Qin Yong took the lead in revealing his figure from the corner of the mine. Then, a figure dressed similar to two young men in dirty clothes came into Liu Yiwen's eyes. Although this person was disgraced, he couldn't hide the blazing light in his eyes, but when he saw Liu Yiwen's figure, his body suddenly froze, and his feet seemed to be as heavy as lead, and he couldn't move.

Liu Yiwen's eyes were full of complicated looks, and the eyes of the two were staggered in the air, and time seemed to go back in time.

He flashed a few times, came to Tan Biao, and said astringently: "Brother Tan, you are tired!"

Tan Biao trembled and said with a wry smile: "I've made trouble for Brother Liu again!"

Liu Yiwen shook his head, held his shoulders and said, "With the friendship between you and me, why should Brother Tan go outside?" He took a closer look and found that although Tan Biao was in poor spirits, his body was fine.

Liu Yiwen smiled and said: "You can rest here for a while, and you can leave after I mine 100 catties of 'Qinglin Iron Ore'." ”

Tan Biao was slightly stunned and refused: "Brother Liu, this is going to be done for me, how can it be done?"

Liu Yiwen smiled faintly and said: "It's extremely easy to mine a hundred catties of spiritual ore as a monk, you don't have to worry too much!" Then he said: "You wait a while, I'll come when I go." ”

After that, he came to Qin Wufu's side in a few flashes, and said, "Qin Daoyou, is there a temporary place to live nearby?" It is estimated that he will stay here for more than a month, so he should find a place to settle down first. Although it is possible to dig a temporary cave, it is much worse than a special stone chamber.

Qin Wufu pointed to the ice wall on the right side of the cave, and said empathetically: "There is a row of stone rooms over there, which is quite spacious, with all the furnishings, and a formation is also placed, and the temperature is also suitable. Then he handed over a pale blue jade pendant.

After Liu Yiwen took it, he said happily: "Thank you, Brother Qin!" After that, he took Tan Biao and flew towards the stone room.

He used the jade pendant to open the prohibition outside the stone room, and the two entered calmly. After a few glances, the two sat opposite each other at a stone table, Liu Yiwen took out a pot of spirit wine, and the two of them drank it. Tan Biao drank three glasses in a row without making a sound, and then let out a long sigh.

Liu Yiwen naturally knew what he was feeling in his heart, and also sighed with him.
