Chapter 36: Eat as a Meal
The cave collapsed, and the six people of the Chaiyuan came out of the safety point of the turtle, each found an intact light stone lamp, and after carrying it back and forth, they found a serious problem. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The front and rear mine roads were blocked, so that they could neither meet Lu Yuqi nor exit the mine safely, and the most troublesome thing was the demon beasts that could be encountered at any time.
"Senior Brother Jiang Qin, how is this good, I don't want to build a foundation, I just want to live for a while longer. ”
"Damn Fu Tianchen, he must want us to die here!"
"Senior Brother Jiang, the lives of the five of us are all in your hands!"
Being so anxiously concerned by the five senior brothers of the Chai Academy, Jiang Qin was still a little uncomfortable: "Senior brothers, don't worry, since the front and back roads are blocked, then let's go forward and see if there are other passages, and it is best to find Senior Sister Lu, so that even if we encounter demon beasts, we will not have too many problems." ”
The five of them looked at each other, and they still want to move forward?
After hesitating, Jiang Qin had already taken the lead in stepping out, exploring the way forward with the help of the faint light stone lamp.
Because of the collapse of the passage, the originally smooth passage has become potholed, and from time to time one or two slightly larger rocks are blocked in front of it.
After a careful walk, the six finally found a fork in the road, and although they didn't know where it led, at least it was a good start.
"There won't be demon beasts in this passage, right?" someone hesitated, not daring to move forward.
"There are also light stone lamps placed inside, it should be safe, I hope to find other senior brothers who came to the rescue, at least we must find a supply point. ”
Jiang Qin was the first to enter, and the five people behind had to continue to follow.
In the past, the firewood courtyard came to assist only to help the flint field collect fire crystals and fire jade, but they did not expect that it would be a rescue, and the saddest thing is that the rescue has not been carried out normally, they have become people waiting for rescue, and the dry food carried by each person is seriously insufficient.
Their cultivation is low, and they are far from being able to clear the grain, and once they run out of dry food and do not wait for someone to save them, they will be in danger of starving to death.
Because of the cultivation of the Phantom Sword Technique, Jiang Qin didn't want to experience the feeling of almost starving to death no matter what.
As he went deeper into the mine, Jiang Qin found that the fire energy around him was getting thicker and stronger, and at the same time, the air around him was getting drier and hotter.
"Eh, what's that?"
Jiang Qin looked puzzled when he saw the red ore exposed on the mine road ahead.
"Senior brothers, what is this? It doesn't seem to be a fire crystal. ”
"It's the Fire Yuan Stone, how can there be a Fire Yuan Stone here?" Zong Kaiji said in surprise, "I remember that a senior brother from the inner gate said that there is a great chance that there will be a spirit stone vein in the place where the Yuan Stone is accompanied, and we will definitely be able to make a great contribution if we can go out this time." ”
The other five were ecstatic when they heard this, but when they thought of the danger they were in now, their expressions fell.
What was that?
When a few people came back to their senses, they found that Jiang Qin picked up the mine hammer on the ground and dug wildly at the fire yuan stone on the mine wall.
"Ten thousand nine, no, Senior Brother Jiang Qin, what are you digging this Fire Yuan Stone for?"
"Eat it as a meal. ”
"When... Rice... Eat?"
The five of them glanced at each other, took a step back very tacitly, and kept their distance from Jiang Qin.
"Hmm!" Jiang Qin paused for a moment, and then said, "If you don't guess wrong, the demon beasts that appear here usually eat fire yuan stones and fire spirit stones, and when we encounter demon beasts, we will throw fire yuan stones out, and we shouldn't want to eat us." ”
"So that's the case, Senior Brother Jiang Qin is really wise. Zong Kaiji exclaimed, "Come, let's dig together!"
Jiang Qin let out a long breath in his heart, he was too focused on mining just now, and if he accidentally told the truth, he was almost treated as a humanoid demon beast.
Huo Yuan Shi was of little use to these Chai Yuan Senior Brothers, but it was of great use to Jiang Qin, who could only use Yuan Qi to cultivate, especially after absorbing Yuan Qi and cultivating the Immortal Dao Technique, he could eliminate hunger and restore physical strength.
In this way, as long as there is a fire element stone in the storage bag, he is not afraid of waiting for the dry food to run out and not eat it.
Just when the six people were in full swing to devote themselves to the mining work, not far from the corner of the mining road, they heard the sound of a few ropes, and a small hole was pierced, and then a demon beast head wearing brown scale armor appeared, sniffing the smell in the air and looking at the six people in the chaiyuan.
Under the faint light of the light stone lamp, the eyes of the demon beast emitted a faint green light, which looked very cold.
Well?
Jiang Qin stopped mining and looked at the corner of the mine, but the light was too dim to see anything clearly.
The other five people also stopped mining one after another, holding their breath and looking, there was no extra sound in the entire mine except for the sound of breathing.
The corner was already ten meters away, completely outside the perception range of his sword sense, just in case, Jiang Qin still cleared out three clean high-grade fire yuan stones and placed them in the middle of the mine.
"It's not good to stay here for a long time, let's go first!"
Jiang Qin put down the top-grade Yuan Stone and said to the five of them, although he didn't see anything, he still chose to trust his instincts.
The five nodded, without making too much noise, put away their mining tools, and continued on their way.
After the six of them left for a while, a brown scaled demon beast came out of the shadows around the corner, came to the location where they had just mined, sniffed around, and then walked to the place where the three high-grade Yuan Stones were placed on the ground.
"Quack Quack ......"
In just a few breaths, the demon beast chewed and ate the three top-grade Yuan Stones on the ground, and then followed the scent.
In fact, Jiang Qin didn't go far, he kept his ear on the mine wall, and almost when he was impatient, there was a slight sound of chewing yuan stones from the mine wall, which confirmed that his speculation was not wrong.
It's really a monster!
"Let's go!"
Even Senior Sister Lu Yuqi can easily handle the demon beasts here, if they really encounter them, they will definitely die.
Noticing Jiang Qin's expression, the faces of the other five people in the Chai Yuan were not very good, and they hurriedly walked to the depths of the mine after dropping some yuan stones along the road.
After walking deeper into the mine for a while, the surrounding fire aura gradually became stronger, which made the five people of Chai Yuan extremely happy, and they were almost close to the veins of the new mine.
What they were most pleased about was that the caves here looked like they were all naturally formed, and there was not a single light stone lamp.
In this way, the credit for discovering the new spirit stone mine can be snatched by the five people.
"The natural mine here seems to be dug by those demon beasts......"
Jiang Qin noticed those claw marks on the cave wall, and his joy instantly dissipated, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.
"Senior Brother Jiang Qin, you said that we threw the Fire Yuan Stone so much, will we attract it over?"
A senior brother from Chai Yuan came to his senses and said the question that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.
"Yes, but it should buy us more time. ”
As soon as Jiang Qin turned around, his face suddenly darkened, the demon beast was so happy to eat the Yuan Stone, and before he knew it, he ate behind the six people, and under the illumination of the six light stone lamps, he could see almost every piece of scale armor on the demon beast's body.
A man and a beast looked at each other speechlessly in the cave where only the sound of heartbeats could be heard......
