Bald Mountain is located in the south of the Tenglong Empire, is a natural magnetic mountain, the whole body is pitch black, there is no vegetation on the mountain, because there is a huge stone at the top of the mountain, its shape is like a tripod, so it is named Balding Mountain.

After a day and night of travel. Zhang Han and his entourage came to the foot of Balding Mountain at this time.

"There's a mine just a short way ahead, and when you get there, you're ready for a new life. Let me explain to you again, after you arrive at the mining area, you only need to mine, you don't have to worry about anything else, the most important point is to absolutely obey the order, and do not act privately, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”

Nalan Yan looked at the appearance of everyone who looked tired because of the hurry, and said disdainfully in his heart: Ordinary people are ordinary people, and it is really sad that they have been on the road for the past two days.

A quarter of an hour later, the crowd arrived at the entrance to the mine.

There was a layer of pale red light curtain at the entrance, and the light curtain was slightly twisted and fluctuating, and rich fire attribute spiritual power fluctuations emanated from this light curtain.

Nalan Yan took out a swarthy token from his arms and injected spiritual power into the token, and suddenly, the token emitted a red light, shining on the light curtain. Immediately after, the light curtain gradually dimmed until no fire attribute spiritual power fluctuations came out.

Nalan Yan turned his head, looked at everyone's surprised eyes, smiled proudly, and shouted, "Hurry up and go in." ”

After everyone entered, Nalan Yan injected spiritual power into the token again, and the token emitted a red light to shine on the light curtain, and suddenly, the light curtain regained its brilliance, and the rich fire attribute spiritual power fluctuations also fluctuated.

"Come with me. ”

Nalan Yan led everyone and walked inside. Zhang Han observed the situation in the mining area as he walked.

The mine is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people without being crowded, and the only characteristic feature of this mine is that it is empty, with few buildings and only a few small houses in the center of the mine.

It was midday, and one of the few houses in the center of the mine was billowing white smoke, presumably the kitchen. The miners in the mining area are now in the mines, so the current mining area looks very deserted.

Nalan Yan led everyone to the open space in front of the house in the center of the mining area, "You guys are waiting here, I'll go in and report the situation, and someone will come out to tell you what to do in a while." ”

After speaking, Nalan Yan walked into the house in the middle. A quarter of an hour later, a middle-aged man with a somewhat dark complexion walked out and came to everyone, with an unsmiling appearance, as if he disdained to smile at the people in front of him.

"Welcome to the Balding Mountain Mining Area, my name is Nalantai, presumably on the way here, Nalan Yan has already explained the basic matters to you. Here, all you have to do is mine, eat, and sleep. You don't have to ask about anything else, you must obey orders absolutely, and you must not act on your own. Someone will come and bring you food in a moment, and I'll take you to pick up the tools after eating. ”

"May I ask where we sleep at night in these rooms?" asked a young man in his twenties in the crowd.

Nalantai showed a disdainful expression and sneered, "Don't you see that this open space is so big? You're just low-class miners, and you want to sleep in your house and daydream. ”

"You recruited us to mine and let us sleep on the ground, how could you do such a thing! Did the five hundred Tenglong coins that day also lie to us?"

"That is, you are clearly lying to us. ”

Everyone felt a trace of uneasiness in their hearts, and for a while, the scene seemed a little chaotic. Zhang Han quietly watched everything in front of him, and before he understood the situation, impulsiveness was definitely the most unwise choice. And everyone was very excited at this time, and there was nothing he could do to calm them down.

"Give me all the quiet. Nalantai roared, and then a powerful spiritual power fluctuation erupted from his body, and yellow light swirled around his body, and the momentum was very amazing.

Everyone was frightened and fell silent for a moment. Zhang Han squinted his eyes slightly, looked at Nalan Tai, and said secretly in his heart: This Nalan family is worthy of being one of the five major families of the Tenglong Empire, and the monk of the Yuan Infant Stage was actually sent to manage the mine.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Nalantai continued: "As long as you can keep working, five hundred dragon coins a day will not be given to you less, I can assure you of this." Well, the meal is coming, give you a quarter of an hour, and you eat quickly, and this will probably be the fullest meal you have eaten since you arrived, and how much you can eat after that depends on how much you have the fruits of your labor. ”

The crowd looked into the kitchen, and saw one cart after another being pushed out of the kitchen, loaded with a large bucket full of white rice, and nothing else.

Zhang Han looked at the buckets of white rice that were pushed over in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It seems that the future life will not be easy, I hope this trip can be fruitful, I hope my feeling is not wrong.

A quarter of an hour later.

Nalantai looked at the more than 200 people in front of him who had eaten enough and had some energy, nodded with a little satisfaction, and exclaimed, "Who is Zhang Han?"

"I am. Hearing Nalantai call him, Zhang Han walked out of the crowd.

"I heard Nalan Yan mention you, he said that you are the captain of this group of people, I hope you can manage these people well and do your part. ”

"Rest assured, Elder, I know what to do. Zhang Han could probably guess that with Nalantai's cultivation, it would definitely be impossible for him to be an elder in the Nalan family, but he still called Nalantai that.

Sure enough, after Nalan Tai heard Zhang Han call him an elder, his face suddenly looked a lot better, at least he wouldn't put on a very self-contained appearance.

"You're still smart, do it well, and you'll do your good. You all follow me and go to the warehouse to get your tools first. ”

The warehouse was on the edge of the mine, and everyone followed Nalantai into the warehouse, and each received an iron pickaxe and a bamboo basket. Nalantai took out a white, somewhat transparent and irregularly shaped ore from the mustard ring, and there was a faint white mist-like air flow rolling inside the ore.

Everyone was an ordinary person, who had never seen such a strange ore, and they all looked at the strange ore in Nalantai's hand with wide eyes. However, Zhang Han recognized this ore, but he didn't say anything at this time, pretending to be very surprised.

"You've all seen the ore in my hand, this is the ore you're going to dig. All eyes wide open, give you a cup of tea, and remember the characteristics of this ore. If you can dig up enough of this ore, you will not only have enough to eat, but you will even have meat to eat. ”

When everyone heard that they could not only eat enough food, but even meat, their eyes widened vigorously, and they wished to imprint every detail of this ore in their minds. In fact, these people will sign up to come here to mine, most of them are forced by life, and they can't even eat enough on weekdays.
