Chapter 418: Spirit Mine on Duty
Bypassing half of Qifeng Mountain, Bai Yi came to a huge mine cave located at the foot of Houshan Mountain, the depths of the mine extend in all directions, connecting the entire ore vein body, some low-level cultivators who came out of the mine cave are carrying bamboo baskets behind their backs, and there are ores of different sizes in the bamboo baskets.
When the spirit stone is mined, there are ores of different sizes first, and these ores can only form the final spirit stones after refining, and the spirit stones used for circulation are all boxy, and they are very small, that is the appearance after being refined, and the spirit ore that has just been mined is not so neat.
When he came to the spirit mine, Elder Cangyun, who had been guarding the spirit mine, had been waiting for a long time.
The handover between the elders is very simple, as long as you see the replacement man, you can leave, and when the previous elder leaves and stays outside the mine, a thin monk hurriedly steps forward to meet him.
The thin monk was in his thirties, Xiuwei was in the middle of the foundation building, wearing coarse cloth clothes, a pair of bast shoes under his feet, although he was dressed ordinary, he looked like a runner, but he was in good spirits, his eyes were very bright, and the most interesting thing was that there was a small teapot suspended next to this person, and the teapot was steaming.
The teapot made of red clay was half the size of a palm, and as the other party approached, Bai Yi could smell a wisp of tea.
"Master, the little one's name is Chen Xiao, he is the deacon of the Pulse Seeking Sect, and he has been in charge of the Qifeng Mountain Spirit Mine for decades, if you have any orders, the little one must follow them. ”
The monk named Chen Xiao came to Bai Yi's approach, bent over and hunched his back, and his tone was very humble.
Guan Jindan monk is not called an elder senior, but he calls 'master', Bai Yi is also the first time to meet him. He looked at the other party and asked puzzledly, "You are the deacon of the Pulse Seeking Sect." Why do you manage the Spirit Mine in Qifeng Mountain?"
This Chen Xiao is not a member of the Cangyun or Hanyu Sect, but a deacon of the Pulse Seeking Sect. Bai Yi originally thought that the entire Qifeng Mountain was full of people from Cangyun and Hanyu, but he didn't expect that there were still outsiders.
"At first glance, you are a young man, you should have just entered Jindan. ”
Intentionally saying that Bai Yi's unknown reason was a young man, Chen Xiaoxiao explained with a smile: "You don't know, the high-level spiritual veins of Qifeng Mountain are much larger than the middle-level spiritual veins, although the Cangyun Sect has taken over Qifeng Mountain, but Cangyun has only a limited number of disciples responsible for mining spiritual ores, and it is no problem to mine middle-level spiritual veins." It is a bit laborious to mine high-level spiritual veins, and our Pulse Seeking Sect not only finds clues for other sects to find spiritual veins, but also assists major sects in mining spiritual ores. ”
After Chen Xiao finished speaking, Bai Yi suddenly realized.
Indeed, as the other party said, the middle-level spiritual veins occupied by the Cangyun Sect were enough to be mined by more than a hundred spirit mine disciples on weekdays. Now that it has been replaced by a high-level spiritual vein, those spirit mine disciples are too busy, unless the sect sends other disciples to assist, otherwise the spirit mine disciples of the Cangyun Sect. There is simply not enough ore to be mined in ten years.
In normal times, it is not difficult to send other disciples to assist the spirit mine disciples, but on the high-level spiritual vein of Qifeng Mountain. Cultivation is the first priority of the sect's disciples, and no one would want to mine in Qifeng Mountain for ten years. Even those spirit mine disciples of the Cangyun Sect are unwilling, who doesn't want to cultivate on a high-level spirit vein.
Mining Spirit Ore. After all, it is a kind of coolie-like labor, not to mention time-consuming and laborious, and it also delays cultivation very much, this situation is not only Cangyun, but also any cultivation sect in Qingzhou, and the emergence of the Pulse Seeking Sect just solves the problem of mining the mine.
The Pulse Seeking Sect, as can be seen from the name, the main business of this sect is to provide clues for other cultivation sects to provide clues of large and small spiritual veins.
The Pulse Seeking Sect was established in the surrounding area of Qifeng Mountain, and the disciples of the sect walked all over Qingzhou all the year round, not only through training, but mainly looking for the whereabouts of the spiritual vein, once they learned of the existence of a spiritual vein, the Pulse Seeking Sect would not occupy it, but sell it to other Xiuzhen sects.
The strange door rules have made the Pulse Seeking Sect an outlier in the Qingzhou cultivation world.
This sect is not big, but the speed of development is extremely fast, and the family has strong resources, although it is not as large as Cangyun Hanyu, it is second to none among small sects.
Knowing the existence of the Pulse Seeking Sect, Bai Yi nodded, he was very much in favor of this strange method of collecting money, if he was like other sects, he fought viciously for a spiritual vein, even if he took the spiritual vein, he would be greatly injured, even if there was no fight in the process of occupying the spiritual vein, he would be exhausted in order to keep the spiritual vein, on the other hand, the Seeking Pulse Sect, if he found a spiritual vein, he would sell one, not only would there be no slightest fight, but he would not have to worry about the foundation of the sect.
No wonder the development of the Pulse Seeking Sect is very rapid, it turned out to be a business without roots, even if the disciples of the sect can find the spiritual vein, even if they make money, it doesn't matter if they can't find it, the person who can come up with this method, even Bai Yi has to admire a little.
Now that there is a Pulse Seeking Sect to assist in mining the spirit mine, Bai Yi's task seems to be easier, after listening to Chen Xiao's story, Bai Yi asked: "Assist the Xiuzhen Sect in mining the spirit mine in Qifeng Mountain, and when the ten years expire, you will also get a lot of money." ”
"You're right, it's true, hehe. Chen Xiao bared his teeth and smiled, and said: "Our remuneration is fixed, no matter who occupies Qifeng Mountain, the help of our Pulse Seeking Sect is indispensable, with us miners, the disciples of the sect can cultivate with peace of mind, except for us, no one wants to open a mine in a high-level spiritual vein like Qifeng Mountain." ”
Chen Xinxin took out two brand-new cups from the storage bag, raised his hand to grab the teapot floating beside him, and poured Bai Yi a cup of tea first, and then his own cup.
Chen Xiao's insignificant move made Bai Yi look at him differently, and he was a person who even cared about such a subsection as a cup, which showed that this Chen Xiao was a must-have in pleasing the strong.
Sometimes, the performance of respecting a person does not come from humility and respectful tone, but some small trivial things can show respect, such as Chen Xiao's gesture of shabu-shabu before pouring tea, although it is inconspicuous, it can give people a feeling of respect, and this feeling is very real.
didn't take Chen Xiao's tea, Bai Yi just nodded, not looking down on the other party, but Bai Yi didn't have the heart to taste tea with the other party, just wanted Chen Xiao to take him to inspect the spirit mine, and the elder sent by the Hanyu Sect to guard the spirit mine had already arrived.
Not only does Cangyun have an elder on duty in the spirit mine every three months, but the same is true of the Hanyu Sect, but as soon as this elder of the Hanyu Sect arrived, Bai Yi was stunned.
It was none other than Qingzhou Mingyu and Lu Xichen.
One person in March, the ten-year period is the rotation of forty elders, Bai Yike didn't expect that when he was on duty at the Spirit Mine, he actually happened to catch up with Lu Xichen on duty.
When she saw Bai Yi, Lu Xichen was obviously overjoyed, but soon, that joy was covered up by her.
Qingzhou Mingyu is no longer the young girl three years ago, now Lu Xichen is already slim, if Qingzhou Mingyu three years ago is just a flower bud, then now Lu Xichen is a blooming flower, not only more beautiful, but also more charming, in her body, full of the bright atmosphere of a young girl.
