Chapter Twenty-Six: Exploration
Wei An saw Su Zhen's attitude, but he was a little impressed by Su Zhen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Basically, no one will take a task like this, although Wei An doesn't know why Su Zhen came here to complete the task.
But judging from Wei'an's previous experience, nine times out of ten, Su Zhen was directly imposed on the task.
Wei An also came from the sect step by step, and he had already guessed almost in the turn of his mind.
"At first, I heard from the disciple in charge of mining that I had encountered a lot of spiritual veins that had not been mined but had been depleted, and then I went to investigate, but I didn't find anything, so I didn't care. Wei An saw that Su Zhen was so serious, and began to explain the cause of the incident to Su Zhen.
"Then I didn't expect that things would develop to such a point now, the output of spirit stones has dropped greatly, I checked many times, but to no avail, and in the end I can only report to the sect. ”
Su Zhen was speechless for a while, what is the difference between what he said and what he didn't say, "It seems that you still have to rely on yourself to find clues." ”
Su Jin then exited Wei'an's stone chamber.
Wei An watched Su Zhen leave, "Even the monks of my foundation realm can't find out anything, and you still want to be able to find out what is going on in your little Qi Cultivation Realm." ”
It is not unreasonable for Wei An to think like this, after all, the divine consciousness of the foundation building realm is far more powerful than the qi cultivation realm.
"And look at this kid, who is also a fifth-level Qi cultivator, he doesn't have divine consciousness yet. Wei An scoffed at Su Zhen, in his heart, he didn't think that Su Zhen could complete the task.
Only when the monk reaches the ninth level of Qi cultivation will he have divine consciousness, that is, at this time, he can control the flying sword to fly in the air and start the first step of taking the enemy's head thousands of miles away.
It's just that Wei An couldn't have imagined that although the current Su Zhen of the Divine Mind is not yet, but the Gongsun Xin in the stone talisman can, and with his cultivation of the Divine Realm, it is completely a piece of cake to check these.
It's just that there is a tacit understanding between Su Zhen and Gongsun Xin, as long as it is not for Su Zhen to really can't do it, otherwise Gongsun Xin will not help Su Zhen.
This is also for Su Zhen to grow better, if everything has to rely on Gongsun Xin, then Su Zhen will become a puppet.
After Su Zhen left Wei'an's stone room, he didn't immediately return to his stone room, but found the disciple who was in charge of mining spirit stones to inquire.
Aimless rambling is not going to do anything good.
The timing of Su Zhen's arrival was also coincidental, now was the meal time for those mining disciples, and everyone was together.
Su Zhen looked at the disciples who were eating there, and felt quite touched in his heart, these were all miscellaneous disciples of Wufeng Valley just like Su Zhen in the past.
In a trance, Su Jin seemed to have returned to the old days.
Although they are miscellaneous disciples, these disciples are really good at food, because they are all in the mountains, there are all kinds of game, and some people go to nearby towns to buy some good wine.
Although it is the lowest existence in the Bladeless Valley, if you go to the secular world, you will immediately be a living immortal.
Su Zhen walked directly among them, sat down with them, picked up a piece of meat on the table and began to eat.
Su Zhen's move made these disciples a little confused.
"Looking at the costumes, this is our outer disciple of Wufeng Valley, why did you come here to sit with us?"
"That's right, and they just pick up something and eat it, don't they all say that those outer disciples look down on us, how can it be so. ”
These miscellaneous disciples have been mining for a long time, and there is still a tacit understanding, and they understand what everyone is talking about when they exchange glances with each other.
Su Zhen saw these in his eyes, and didn't say anything, still eating what he was doing.
"Huh, it's better than I baked it. Su Zhen felt that the taste was not bad, and took another bite.
The surrounding miscellaneous disciples glanced at each other, and finally one of these people seemed to be the leader of these people and took the initiative to ask Su Zhen, "I don't know what is the matter with Senior Brother coming here?"
This person spoke cautiously, for fear of offending Su Zhen there.
"Have you encountered anything special when you are mining, that is, you have never encountered it before. Su Jin asked straight to the point.
The miscellaneous disciples around saw that Su Zhen had come to inquire about the spirit mine, and a hanging letter was put down.
"Senior brother, I'm here to see why the output of the spirit mine has been declining recently. Still the one who had just spoken asked tentatively.
Su Zhen nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"That is, more than two months ago, we found that many of the spirit veins that we have not mined no longer contain spirit stones, at first I thought it was accidental, but then we found that many spirit veins are like this, and there are also many strange scratches in the cave, which we have not encountered before. The miscellaneous disciples began to talk about what they had experienced.
"What kind of scratch is it?" asked Su Zhen, grasping the key point.
"I can't describe it. The miscellaneous disciples were a little frightened when they said this, and they peeked at Su Zhen with their eyes, for fear that Su Zhen would punish them if they didn't go their way.
"Take me now to the place where you found the scratches. Su Zhen would not be what these disciples thought, but directly asked to bring himself there.
Not to mention that Su Zhen came from a miscellaneous disciple, even if Su Zhen's heart is not to do things that deceive people for no reason.
When the miscellaneous disciples saw that Su Zhen wanted to see those scratched places, they didn't dare to ink, so they took Su Zhen directly to the place.
In the process of walking, Su Zhen found that the deeper and lower he went, the more spiritual veins there were, and correspondingly, the more original spirit stones that had not been collected.
"That's the biggest scratch we've ever had. "The miscellaneous disciples who led the way still have a bit of brains, and seeing that Su Zhen is more concerned about bringing it directly to the biggest one they have encountered.
Su Zhen looked at the traces in front of him, and his face showed suspicion.
"Some of these traces are scattered but unified by many paths, while others are traces of the whole path. Su Zhen looked at the traces in front of him and fell into deep thought.
"Could it be a demon beast?" Su Zhen had an idea in his heart.
"Did you encounter any traces of demon beasts when you were mining?" Su Zhen asked the miscellaneous disciples around him.
"No, this ore has been covered with a super large formation since it was obtained from Wufeng Valley, even if it is low, it is covered very deeply, and it is impossible for demon beasts to come in at all. The leader said first.
"Yes, I haven't encountered any of them when I was mining, and none of them are safe. ”
The people around him chimed in.
"Is it really not?" Su Zhen couldn't help but fall into thought.
"I was in a mining session when I heard small noises. At this time, at the edge of the crowd, a faint voice reached Su Zhen's ears.
Su Zhen followed the voice and looked over, "Did you say you heard the voice?"
"Yes, yes. The disciple who spoke was already cowardly, and when he saw Su Zhen's sharp eyes, he stammered a little when he spoke.
The disciple who spoke looked so thin, and the whole person stood there as if a bamboo pole was propped up there, plus he usually didn't like to talk, so he was basically a character that people easily ignored, and he didn't expect it to be so eye-catching as soon as he opened his mouth now.
Then the thin disciple told Su Zhen about the situation he had encountered.
Thin himself heard a small sound during a mining trip, similar to the cry of a monster, but the sound disappeared when he put down the iron pickaxe in his hand and prepared to listen carefully.
Because this spirit mine was covered by the formation, it basically eliminated the possibility of demon beasts coming in, so the thin disciple subconsciously thought that he had heard it wrong.
Su Zhen asked him about the time when he heard the voice, and he was basically right.
"Well, I see, let's go. Su Jin motioned for them to leave, and then gave the thin disciple a few spirit stones.
The others left with envious eyes.
By now, Su Zhen knew in his heart that most of this spirit mine had come in a demon beast.
Or if there is a demon beast that is already in the spirit mine when it is covered by the big array, it can also explain why the formation does not have a little warning.
In fact, this matter is not that difficult, but since Wei An lost the possibility of going further, he basically just dealt with it, and he didn't guess anything at all.
Moreover, with his cultivation of the foundation building realm, he would not directly talk to the miscellaneous disciples like Su Zhen, coupled with the character of a thin man, Wei An naturally would not know anything.
"Looks like we're going to be here for a long time. Su Zhen thought to himself.
It's one thing to know that it's the monster that's doing it, but it's another thing when you can catch the monster.
And so far these are Su Zhen's guesses, although some evidence points out that Su Zhen's guess is not wrong, but not reaching the last step does not guarantee that Su Zhen's guess is correct.
Su Scar didn't leave, but continued to look at the scratch, Su Scar wanted to find a breakthrough in this regard.
"If it's really a monster infested, then there must be more than one trace left, maybe you can find out the place of the monster beast through the direction of these scratches. Su Zhen's thinking is very clear.
It's just that it backfired, and Su Zhen didn't find anything.
Su Zhen was not discouraged, this was an extremely time-consuming matter, and Su Zhen was patient.
In the following month, Su Zhen meditated and practiced at night, slept for two hours, and spent the rest of the time exploring the scratches in the cave.
Although Su Zhen has not yet found the place of the demon beast, Su Zhen has been exploring for so long and has found the pattern of the demon beast's haunting.
Su Zhen was sure that he would be able to catch the culprit who had caused the reduction in the production of the spirit ore next time.
"Well, I'm here waiting for your next appearance. Su Zhen thought to himself.
