"Coming back?" said an indifferent voice from the darkness.

Mu closed the door with an unchanged expression, and said lightly: "I'm back." ”

Suddenly, in the darkness, a figure slowly sat up. Wood looked over, and he knew that the other party was looking at him, and his gaze did not mean to back down.

"Aren't you going to give me an explanation?" Jun Ao said in a slightly cold voice.

"Explanation?" A smile appeared on the corner of Wood's mouth, and then through the crack in the door, he said slowly, "In order to live, is this explanation enough?"

"......" Jun Ao fell silent, did not answer immediately, and said lightly after a moment: "Enough." ”

Mu didn't answer, and looked out with a confused look: "It's really dark tonight, it looks like there will be rain tomorrow." ”

......

Before dawn, a light rain was already falling outside, falling from the eaves with a ticking sound.

The most distressing thing for people here is the rainy day, because the rainy day is the most dangerous time for them, and the rain can cause the mine to collapse.

However, everyone had no other choice, and due to the ferocity of the surrounding people, they could only mine the spirit stone with fear.

But God didn't seem to care about everyone's intentions, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the whole sky seemed to be covered with a curtain, a gray, and the falling rain gathered together and flowed on the ground, like a rushing stream!

......

Jun Ao glanced outside, slowly opened the door, blended into the rain, and walked towards the mine. Along the way, I happened to meet Lei Jun and others, but it seems that the previous days are still vivid, and Lei Jun chose to avoid it when he saw Jun Ao.

Jun Ao didn't pay attention to him, and walked straight towards the mine. It was Lei Jun who stood in the rain, looking at Jun Ao's back, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and Lu Shan, who was beside him, saw Lei Jun's abnormality, and asked lightly: "Boss, is there anything wrong?"

"Nothing. Lei Jun shook his head, but a thought came to his heart, where did that person go? Then he withdrew his gaze and walked towards the mine.

Jun Ao seemed to have subtitles on his body, and when everyone saw him coming, they hurriedly got out of the way, for fear of angering this great god.

As everyone knows, Jun Ao didn't look at them at all, because he was entangled in a question in his heart at this time: What kind of calculation are you having?

......

A few miles away from the mine is a mountain range, and the road is muddy because of the rain, and from time to time some pieces of rubble fall from it.

But in such a situation, there is still a figure braving the rain, constantly climbing in the mountains.

"This rain came at a good time. The wood looked up at the sky with a sad look on his face.

But this sorrow was only fleeting, as if it had never appeared. Wood is constantly moving slowly in the mountains in the rain.

Suddenly, the figure of the wood froze, and a smile appeared on his face, looking at the tree in front of him that was the size of a person hugging him.

There is a cluster of things that look like Ganoderma lucidum growing on the trunk, and the wood is carefully picked from the trunk, looking at this dark thing, with an indescribable look on his face, like helplessness, like anger, like sadness, many emotions converge together.

"Father, if you know that what you handed over to me is not to save people, but to harm people, I wonder if you will be sad, will you blame me for being an unfilial son?" Mu said to himself, and at some point there was a glint in the corner of his eye.

"......," the wood opened but did not make any sound. He took off the rain hat from his head, and countless raindrops hit him in the face.

The raindrops seemed to replace his tears, venting all the grief and anger in his heart.

After a long time, the sadness on Wood's face had disappeared, and he had regained his previous calm. Carefully collect the thing that resembles a reishi mushroom and carry it in your arms.

"That's enough, but I'm going to have to look for a few herbs to get the desired effect and fool the man. A gleam flashed in the wood's eyes.

Then he walked up the hill again.

............

The rain gradually stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sky was bright again, but it was already afternoon, but the workers looked at the better weather, and their faces also appeared, after all, if the rain continued, maybe when the mine would collapse.

Jun Ao walked out of the mine, glanced at the improved weather, and thought to himself that he didn't know if he had returned, and then threw the spirit stone in his hand into the bamboo basket, which was considered to have completed today's task.

Then he took the food alone and went to his lodgings.

Pushed open the door, but found that there was already a person inside, and that person was wood.

Although he had lived with the wood for a long time, it was the first time he had seen the wood's body, which was full of scars crisscrossing and crisscrossing, as if the whole body was crawling with centipedes.

Jun Ao's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were full of disbelief, after all, he was engaged in the murder industry, so he naturally saw that some of his bodies were fatal, but he survived.

"I didn't think you would survive. Jun Ao asked inexplicably, but the wood didn't pay any attention to him. Jun Ao was not angry, and then turned his head to look at the already crooked table, where there were some things he didn't recognize, and asked in a low voice, "What are these for?"

The wood dried his body, then passed himself up with a rag, glanced at the things on the table, and said lightly: "A gift for the anniversary." ”

"Oh?" Jun Ao suddenly became interested, because he couldn't see anything special about these things.

"Do you know agarwood?"

"Agarwood?" Jun Ao's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt, looked at the wood and said: "I naturally know that kind of thing, but what does it have to do with that, don't you want to say that this is agarwood?"

Wood shook his head, "Not really, but this thing has the same effect as agarwood, except for one thing?"

"Which point?"

"It can be addictive, and at the same time, it will cause considerable mental wear and tear on the user, which means that it can cause hallucinations. Wood said word by word.

"There are such strange things in the world. Jun Ao still didn't believe it.

Mu naturally understood the doubts in the reassurance, but he didn't intend to explain it, just said lightly, the world is so big, there are no surprises.

Then the wood walked to the table, glanced at Jun Ao and said, "Lend me your dagger." ”

Jun Ao didn't hesitate, took out the dagger and threw it at the wood.

The wood turned into a dagger, picked up the thing that looked like a reishi, and cut it carefully, and soon six black rods the size of a middle finger appeared on the table.

Jun Ao watched it carefully, but he still couldn't see anything strange about this thing, isn't this thing just like an ordinary small wooden block, but the color is different.

Then Wood didn't know how to take out a stone bowl and a stick. Then put the rest of the herbs on the table in a stone bowl and carefully mash them.

Jun Ao walked over to the wood and looked down.

I saw a large pool of green juice appear in the stone bowl, and at the same time, a faint fragrance came out of the stone bowl.

This aroma is refreshing, and if you ask more, you will feel a burst of relaxation in your body and mind, as if all the impurities in your body have been discharged.

Although Jun Ao knew that this was just an illusion, he was still attracted by this fragrance.

Then the wood carefully fished out the crumbled herbs from the stone bowl, leaving only the green juice.

Wood smelled the faint fragrance coming from the stone bowl, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered, "It's half the battle." ”

Then he put the six black rods in the green juice. Then the wood wrapped the whole stone bowl tightly with a slightly clean and intact white cloth and placed it at the bottom of the bed.

"Is this the end?" said Jun Ao with some disbelief.

"Do you think it will require a complicated process?" said Wood.

"But how long will this thing take? Jun Ao restrained his expression, and the corners of his eyes showed a heavy look: "I don't know when he will be able to break through to the innate level, once he breaks through to the innate level, we will lose completely." ”

Wood stretched out three thumbs, and his face also showed a hint of heaviness: "It will take at least three days, and it will take time to achieve the desired effect." ”

"But how do you know for sure that the neighborhood is going to be interested, and if he doesn't, then we'll have to get the first step. Jun Ao's eyes flashed with a fierce light and said.

"Rest assured, he'll bite the hook, because I know what he's most pressing right now. Wood said lightly.

"What?"

"It's also time. ”

............

Three days later.

The output of the mine is getting lower and lower, and now the spirit stones mined every day have shrunk by about one-third, that is, there are now at most sixty or seventy spirit stones per day.

This news made the surroundings feel very panicked, and there was not much time before the next immortal cultivator came, but the spirit stones obtained now were about two thousand, and it was still far away from five thousand.

So the surrounding area also ordered everyone to hand over two spirit stones every day after all, and if they couldn't do it, they would be severely punished.

This order made almost everyone angry, the storage capacity of this mine was already low, and it still demanded two pieces a day, isn't it torture?

But due to the ferocity around them, everyone only dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

At dusk, Wood and Jun Ao walked towards their wooden house. Suddenly, the wood stopped halfway, looking at the deepest building with a calm face, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
