"Under this dark river..."Liu Zheji tentatively released the power of his divine soul, and found that this underground canyon was really deep, and he put down more than ten zhang but did not reach the dark river.

"We've tried, but this river is too deep to send someone deep. Zhang Hongyu said.

"Didn't you try it if you didn't fly down?" asked Huang Huaji next to him.

Zhang Hongyu shook his head, "I see that the bottom of this canyon is full of dangers, maybe there are some demon beasts coming out of it, and they are not in danger." ”

Liu Zheji glanced down, indeed, there was a strange aura lingering in the canyon, Zhang Hongyu's approach was right, rashly wading into danger would only lose manpower in vain.

"Let's go, I'll show you the real veins. Lan Yuntian excitedly beckoned everyone to follow.

Liu Zheji and the others glanced at each other and followed.

After crossing the bridge, there was another mine road behind him, Lan Yuntian held a piece of chlorite dug down from the wall to lead the way in front, and when he reached the end of the mine road, the aura around him suddenly became rich.

"Spirit Stone Vein!" Everyone reacted instantly, this is definitely a Spirit Stone Vein!

Lan Yuntian turned his back to everyone and took out a few handfuls of fluorite from the storage ring and threw them around, and the light of the fluorite instantly illuminated everything around him.

"Hiss......"

Everyone gasped, and when they saw the huge spirit stone ore in front of them, Huang Huaji's resentment towards the miscellaneous courtyard disappeared in an instant.

"This is a piece of spirit stone raw ore, but we don't have the tools to mine it, so we can only put it here for the time being, if we break it rashly, it will be a pity that the spiritual energy inside will overflow. Zhang Hongyu stroked the green rough stone in front of him.

Everyone simply estimated that this piece of spirit stone ore alone was worth at least nearly 100,000 spirit stones, and no one could guarantee how much ore there was behind this spirit stone ore ore.

"Why don't you dig to the side?" asked Fauber suddenly.

Zhang Hongyu's expression became a little tangled, he glanced at Liu Zhiji, Liu Zhiji comprehended, and probed out the power of the divine soul, and when he detected the scene in the surrounding rocks, his heart beat uncontrollably.

The surrounding walls were full of this huge spirit stone raw mine, and the size of the spirit stone was terrifying, and the willow halberd was buzzing with melon seeds, and even the few people around him didn't hear clearly.

"It's... , first mothball, and when the time comes, we will come back to mining. Liu Zhiji said reluctantly.

Everyone was puzzled, but they didn't dare to say anything, and under the leadership of Zhang Hongyu, everyone retreated, leaving only a few disciples of the Miscellaneous Servant Academy to guard on the other side of the bridge.

When everyone returned to the Spirit Stone Valley, Liu Zhiji immediately ordered the Mojia Army to send people to guard the mine, and no one was allowed to approach except those who had been approved.

This spirit stone vein has a great relationship, and Liu Zheji has to be cautious.

That night, Liu Zhiji summoned several important managers and held an urgent meeting.

"Now just wait for Gongsun Yan's predecessors to wake up, we will start planting spiritual tea, in addition, Zhang Hongyu, you make a purchase list, and you need a lot of professional tools to dig spiritual stone mines......"

After Liu Zheji arranged all the work, he disbanded the meeting, and the management of Youling retired from the body, and only Gu Lianqi and Fu Bo were left in the big tent.

"Alas. Liu Zhiji sighed and sat down in the rocking chair next to him in thought.

Fu Bo and Gu Lianqi both showed doubts on their faces, and they all wondered why Liu Zheqi sighed.

"Fauber... We don't lack anything now, but we don't have people. ”

After statistics, there are now more than 20,000 people in Lingshi Valley, including 6,000 combatants, and the rest are logistics personnel, half of these logistics personnel are planters who cannot start work, and the daily consumption is a huge amount, even if they have spirits

Stone ore, as well as a variety of rare ores, can be sold directly to avoid arousing suspicion.

"I... If you have an idea that can attract a lot of people, it depends on whether you agree with it, young master. Gu Lianqi hesitated and said.

"What?" Liu Zhiji raised his head and looked at Gu Lianqi expectantly.

Gu Lianqi took a deep breath and said an answer that made Liu Zhiji stunned.

"The Gu family... Still in Gangbuk County. ”

"Gu family!?" Fu Bo asked in surprise, "Are they still alive?"

As soon as Fu Bo finished speaking, he felt that what he said was wrong, Gu Lianqi and Liu Zhiji were both members of the Gu family, although they are now separated from the Gu family, but they still have the blood of the Gu family, he said with some embarrassment: "Young master... I didn't mean that, it's good that the Gu family is still here, but can they accept it into our Zichen Mansion?"

Liu Zhiji pondered for a while, to be honest, he didn't have any feelings for the Gu family, he only had feelings for two people in the Gu family, except for Gu Lianqi was Gu Meng'er, and even he had no feelings for his own mother who had never met.

Thinking of Gu Mengqing, Liu Zhiji couldn't help but set his eyes on Fu Bo, Fu Bo hadn't been in contact with Gu Mengqing for a long time, and he didn't know how she was doing now.

"Young master. Fu Bo knew what Liu Zhi wanted to ask, but he shook his head, "The master's whereabouts are erratic, and she disappeared after giving us only one last order. ”

Liu Zhiji retracted his gaze in disappointment, Gu Mengqing was still not ready to see him.

At this time, Gu Lianqi's brows furrowed, as if he remembered something, "Young master... The master she... Did I mention Zhongzhou to you?"

"I remember that the master mentioned about Zhongzhou, she said a long time ago that she was going to Zhongzhou to do some things, but it is not clear what it is, maybe she has gone to Zhongzhou now. ”

"Zhongzhou ......"

Liu Zheji kept repeating these two words in his mouth, if Gu Mengqing really went to Zhongzhou, wouldn't he be in the same place as his aunt? Anyway, he would have to go to Zhongzhou sooner or later... We'll see you sooner or later.

"Wait!" Liu Zheji suddenly thought, assuming that Gu Mengqing was really in Zhongzhou, then what was the point of her not coming back for so long? With her character, she would definitely not ignore herself, at least she would give herself a hint, but now there was no hint, nothing was left, and she only threw Gu Lianqi and Fu Bo to herself, but ......

Gu Mengqing left a reason why he had to go to Zhongzhou. ”

Because of Gu Meng'er, Liu Zhiji had to go to Zhongzhou to save her, and Gu Mengqing was probably also in Zhongzhou, so it was completely connected, and Liu Zhiji even thought that Gu Meng'er was taken away by Yan Palace because of Gu Mengqing's handiwork.

"Huh...... Until now, you're still hiding everything from me, but I want to see what else you can make a name for yourself after you go to Zhongzhou?"

Liu Zhiji, who had been thinking about it in the chair for a long time, suddenly stood up with a "soar", which startled Gu Lianqi and Fu Bo.

"Uncle, come with me to the Gu family tomorrow!" Liu Zhiji said with a sneer.

-------------------------------------

Since the Gu family escaped from Jiangnan County, the strength of the family has plummeted, and the territory given to the Gu family by Jiangbei County is all resource-poor land, plus the Gu family has no means to earn spirit stones, the Gu family has reached a very difficult point.

There are three pieces of territory along the river, and the location of the Gu family's home is in the least resourceful piece, the catastrophe started from the center of Jiangnan County, spreading to the surrounding areas, and the Gu family located on the border avoided the disaster of being exterminated but also lost the enclosure of competitive resources.

The current Gu family is no longer the Gu family of the past, the head of the family, Gu Fengtian, was seriously injured in order to cover the Gu family, and now he has not recovered, Gu Chengdu, Gu Yingtang and others have also suffered a lot of injuries.

Now the only ones who have some combat power are the younger generations of the Gu family.

In the ancestral hall of the Gu family, Gu Mengying sat on the main seat, and the current core personnel of the Gu family sat on the left and right.

"Head of the house...... Our Gu family dart bureau has not received business for half a month, and if it continues like this, the dart game may not be able to continue. A young man said dejectedly.

After the Gu family came to the fiefdom of Jiangbei County, because there was no way to earn spirit stones in the family, they could only choose to open a dart game, the Gu family had been inherited in Gucheng for many years, and they relied on the business of the dart bureau to start up, but it was different here, this enclosure was economically sluggish, the transportation was inconvenient, and the Gu family could no longer support it.

A woman next to her couldn't help but shout when she saw Gu Mengying lowering her head and not speaking, "If this continues, my Gu family will be finished! Aren't you the acting head of the family? Why don't you think of a way?"

Gu Mengying didn't answer, Gu Yingtang next to her frowned and said, "This matter is a problem that my entire Gu family has to face, what are you doing for her?"

The woman's expression changed, and she said coldly: "If it weren't for her, our Gu family wouldn't have fallen into such a field, she was going to open the dart game, and she should be responsible for the loss!"

"Responsible!responsible!What are you asking her little girl to be responsible?!" Gu Yingtang's chest wound was pulled, and he leaned back on the chair panting after speaking.

The woman didn't care, but smiled sinisterly: "The eldest son of the Zhang family has asked us for marriage many times, why don't you marry him in Mengying, the Zhang family is terrible now, with their help, I think my Gu family will be able to survive soon." ”

The Zhang family in the woman's mouth is the Zhang family of Gucheng, after the two families escaped from Jiangnan County, the Zhang family was very lucky to find a spiritual stone vein in the enclosure, the Zhang family knew that the strength could not swallow this vein, and dedicated it to the black dragon gate, the largest force in the enclosure at that time, and the black dragon gate did not treat them badly, gave them the ownership of the three ore veins, and the Zhang family together to mine the veins, with economic support, the Zhang family's business was done, in a few years, the strength faintly overshadowed the black dragon gate, but became the first force in the enclosure.

Gu Mengying's face sank when she heard this woman's words, her fists squeaked, if it weren't for the death of her two uncles in order to protect him after they came out of the Divine Secret Realm, she wouldn't have endured the woman's difficulties now.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, the rest of the family also moved, this Zhang family is now a big tree, and there is no chance for ordinary forces to contact them, and now the eldest son of the family wants to marry Gu Mengying, such a good opportunity makes the rest of the Gu family shine and dissuade them.

"Shut up!" Gu Yingtang roared angrily, and his full body of true qi dispersed, the doors and windows of the ancestral hall crackled, and the dust on the roof kept falling.

"As long as I am here! The Gu family will never do that grovelling thing. Gu Yingtang forcibly endured the churning of blood in his chest and said reluctantly.

Gu Mengying sighed deeply, the Gu family owed her too much, but after Gu Chengdu, Gu Yingtang and others made up for it, she had already relieved her father Gu Chengfeng's death, and now she walked the road by herself, if it weren't for herself, the two top worshippers of the Gu family would not have died.

Gu Mengying couldn't help but recall the "Red Lotus of the World" incident in her mind, if it weren't for the two uncles desperately blocking in front of her, she wouldn't be standing here.

"If marrying the Zhang family can solve my family's dilemma, I will consider it. Gu Mengying gritted her teeth and said to everyone.

"Ah! That's right! What a good person the eldest son of the Zhang family, suave and suave, and young and successful, you are just the right match for the shadow girl, and it is also the blessing of my Gu family to be able to get this son-in-law!"

Gu Mengying saw that the woman was talking more and more excessively, and she couldn't bear to leave the ancestral hall, and after she left, the woman kept asking when she would mention this matter to the Zhang family, and she didn't need to tell her in advance.

After Gu Mengying left the ancestral hall, she left Gu's house alone and stopped by a river, she looked at her reflection in the water, and two drops of water flowed on her pale face.
