The atmosphere in the cave was a little frozen.

Xue Jing still lowered his head and gently turned the glowing ring: "In addition to inspecting the political affairs of the six ministries, this department is also ordered to inspect all matters of private collection and sale of spiritual sources. Do you know that?"

Without waiting for an answer, he raised his hand again: "This ring was given by Lu Xiang, and it was revealed when he met the spirit." Finding spiritual sources and testing spiritual power has always been very useful. ”

Xue Jing stared at An Luoyong, who was silent, and slowly leaned over as he paced: "An Lizheng, what do you think of this ......?"

Li Zheng's lips moved, as if he wanted to open his mouth, but he didn't say anything for a while.

"My lord, I know the light. ”

Xue Jing stopped, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly. He looked back at Bai Ye, who had been following him: "Tell me about it?"

Bai Ye squinted and smiled, and repeated: "I know this green light. ”

Out of nowhere, he pulled out a strange short-handled flat-headed iron cone and easily cut through the sacks in the stack.

Some gray-white scum burst out of the hole and fell to the ground, and the dull sour smell suddenly diffused.

Lord Xue Jing frowned: "What is this?"

"Guano. ”

Bai Ye bent down and picked up a fist-sized piece of slag cake: "Lord Qiyu, this is the accumulated manure." Exclusively for tea fields. ”

There was a squirming movement behind him, it should be that the entourage was smoked, secretly covering their noses and mouths.

Anli looked at the sack in a daze, and his body shook a little: "The lion-headed goose migrates from the Western Continent every spring. The gold of the dung cake is very expensive, and if the fermented bread is spread and dried, it will ......"

"It's going to emit this green light from the ring. Bai Ye went over to help Amber and quietly took over the conversation.

An attendant behind him cleared his throat and shouted, "It doesn't matter if you are a spirit stone or bird droppings." As long as it contains spiritual power, it is only allowed to be collected and stored by officials. How dare you hide it for your own personal use?"

As he spoke, he stepped forward to pull the sack.

The outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

The sack has an emblem on it. That's the hallmark of the royal family.

The attendant looked up, and the sack with the same emblem formed a wall.

"The Jiang Chamber of Commerce has a special edict issued by the imperial court to collect this manure and plant Wuyin tea on our mountain. Bai Ye's eyes narrowed even more, "My lord, that's Gongcha." ”

Xue Jing's broad face finally showed a hint of embarrassment.

The subtle changes in his expression fell on Bai Ye's eyes, and he couldn't help but secretly say that he was lucky.

This military situation should be very urgent, and the Jiang family went all out to cooperate with the former enemy to transport grain and grass, and they couldn't take care of their own affairs for a while.

The senior official of the Supervision Department didn't know what he smelled, so he took advantage of this time to come and inspect the Jiang family's warehouse.

Fortunately, there was a letter earlier. The village has done its best to deal with it.

Fortunately, the Jiang family was thoughtful and gave Lingfei the royal banner.

Bai Ye's spirit platform has been transparent since he was a child, and his mind is sensitive, even if he deals with this old fritter who doesn't know the roots, it is not too difficult.

Right now, he's more worried about Amber.

Amber's situation is not right. There's something wrong with that ring.

Just thinking about it, An Li was suddenly excited, and his eyes seemed to be clearer.

He stroked his forehead and lowered his head to ponder for a while, then glanced at Bai Ye quietly, and then bowed his hand to Lord Xue: "This year's tribute tea has been sent to the palace, and the Prime Minister and the six Shangshu also have a copy." Drinking this tea for a long time will cleanse the body and strengthen the body. Why don't we go down the mountain and enjoy the face?"

Some of the commissioning Lord Xue didn't say a word and walked out. The entourage of officials also followed.

Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Amber is fine!

The atmosphere just now was really a little tense, and it was the first time to face so many big officials, Amber suddenly lost his temper again, but fortunately he prevaricated on the spot.

The mood suddenly relaxed. He still tried to maintain an indifferent smile on his face, but he felt more and more uncomfortable that his sweat-soaked robe was binding his body everywhere.

Anli was falling behind the team and quietly grabbed Bai Ye's arm: "Don't accompany you." Go ahead and get your hands on your father's side, don't miss the hour. ”

He took out a small black skin pouch from his bosom and stuffed it into Bai Ye.

The young man's sweat was completely unleashed at once. Dare you to carry so many spirit beast crystal nuclei around with others.

It's really ......

Amber looked at Bai Ye's straight eyes, and he would be wrong, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't go again." ”

"I'll go back to the inn and make longevity noodles for you. Li Zheng's figure stopped at the door of the cave, turned around and whispered, "Happy birthday!"

Bai Ye was stunned for a moment, then smiled and walked out of the cave with his head down.

"Happy Birthday", the four words that do not understand grammar, are Bai Ye's exclusive greetings, and the people in the village only say to him.

These four words were used by my father to hit the night sky of the battlefield with secret fireworks when he pursued his mother.

Although my father generously admitted afterwards that it was a plagiarized idea, the effect was surprisingly good.

That night, the more than 100,000 officers and soldiers of Lan and Wei stopped attacking each other, and finally simply stopped fighting for half a month.

When he was a child, when Aunt Ci recited the origin of these four words to him, she would always have a shy smile on her face, and Bai Ye would never forget that situation for the rest of her life.

Kashiraya grew up listening to his father's legend. But there are many things that the elders have always been vague about.

He is indifferent by nature and never forces anyone to do anything, but there is still curiosity.

And strong.

Fortunately, there is a room of notes left by my father. Growing up, his favorite thing was to lie in the house every day and try to sketch out the situation.

The mind was only carried away for a short moment. Looking up at the backs of the group descending the mountain, Bai Ye's head began to hurt again.

Amber also has to continue to deal with these inspectors.

The leading official is by no means simple. When they met on the mountain road, they already sensed that he was also a practitioner of secret arts, and he was even coercive in the cave.

That ring is also quirky. What is the so-called "manifestation of the spirit" must be a disguise, Amber carried a bag of crystal nuclei to take them up the mountain, and the ring should have manifested a long time ago.

Amber had just been captured by the artifact. can make Amber go, what a master.

Bai Ye suddenly blushed. It's really hard for Amber, there are so many things in the village that urgently need his coordination.

Three rounds of service have already been arranged for the families of the Guannan camp to serve in the camp, and the three newly dug grain cellars have not yet been completed.

In order to make room for the temporary transportation of military rations, the tea urns were temporarily transferred to various households, but the temperature and humidity were not ideal, and the quality was probably greatly affected.

The Jiang family caravan will soon come to collect summer tea, and what if it picks a thorn or even refuses to accept it at that time.

But the first thing Amber remembered when he recovered was his birthday.

Thinking about these terrible things, I don't have much heart to celebrate this birthday.

Before I knew it, I had climbed all the way to the old town along the mountain road hidden in the grass.

In the early years, Fangyi was much larger than it is now, and most of the villagers lived in the old town in the mountains higher up. One hundred and ten stone houses are stacked on top of each other, and the windows are so small that there is hardly any sunlight in the house.

However, in the year Bai Ye was born, there was a violent landslide in Yulan Mountain, and the water source of the old town was destroyed, leaving only a hot spring. Villagers migrated down the mountain in batches to reclaim new terraced tea mountains. Slowly, the old town was abandoned.

Bai Ye has to come once every ten days.

He stumbled into a hidden crack in the stone in the corner of the Old Town Square.

Inside the crack is a dark hole. The rock walls were unusually smooth and flat, twenty feet wide and narrow, and the dome was twenty feet high. All the way straight to the end, about 200 steps long.

The cave is filled with rows of thick iron pipes of varying heights, forming a narrow space with countless crevices and twists.

Every ten steps above the roof of the cave is inlaid with a red fluorite the size of a basin. From time to time, high-temperature steam escapes from the pores in the pipes. The cave was filled with a faint red mist.

An old wooden shield sits on the shelf in front of it, and the outer edge of the hardwood plank is simply tied to an iron bar.

Bai Ye sighed lightly, lifted the wooden shield, slowly breathed, and the whole person calmed down.

His goal was at the end of the dark cave two hundred paces away.

For seven years, he had to walk through the dark hole every ten days, twisting the giant wheel installed at the bottom of the hole ten times.
