Chapter 115: Cave Laborers
"It's called the Vault, and it's the largest cave within a radius of more than ten miles. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The black crystals we gouged out were all exchanged there. Clothing included. Xiong Liu glanced at Huang Yun.
Huang Yun's face was slightly red, and he forced himself to calm down.
"Presumably you haven't shaved the black crystal yet!" Saying this, Xiong Liu touched the inside of the animal skin package and took out a black ore the size of his thumb, which was exactly the same as the black ore that Huang Yun had scavenged.
"I picked one," Huang Yun put the ore on the black iron hoe on the ground.
"Oh, if you're lucky, you can still pick it up, but judging by how you look, you must have touched it with your hands!"
Huang Yun nodded helplessly.
"You're lucky, but picking up a black crystal may not be your luck, but your bad luck. Xiong Liu was a little surprised, and then his face showed a complicated look.
"Why do you say that?" Huang Yun's heart sank, and he asked puzzled.
"Do you see what I look like?" Xiong Liu pulled all his hair up, revealing a full face.
"This! it doesn't seem like anything!" Huang Yun muttered a little puzzled,
Seeing Huang Yun's doubts, Xiong Liu pointed to his face and said, "Didn't you see those pockmarks?"
"Pockmarks?" Huang Yun was a little stunned, who doesn't have a few pockmarks on their faces, is this different?
"I didn't bring these pockmarks by nature. But after coming here, he was eroded by that demonic qi to become like this. ”
"Demon Qi?" Huang Yun's eyes widened instantly, revealing a look of disbelief.
"Yes, the animal skin is written on the black crystal, in fact, the ore here is not the black crystal at all, but the demon yuan crystal used by the demon clan, and it is just to hide people's eyes and ears. ”
"What?Demon Yuanjing?" Huang Yun's pupils shrank, revealing a look of astonishment.
"Oh, look at your appearance, don't you know?" Huang Yun's expression made Xiong Liu stunned.
Huang Yun thought for a moment and said, "I don't hide it from Brother Xiong, I am a disciple of the Eternal Alliance, and I once encountered the Demon Clan in the mission space of the Immortal Worship Order. ”
"Oh, are you a disciple of the Immortal Worship Order of the Eternal Alliance?" This time, Xiong Liu's surprise was stronger than Huang Yun's.
"Yes, I came here to investigate the disappearance of the cultivator on the secret order of the Alliance, and I didn't want to be caught here just a little bit of an eyebrow. ”
"Okay, good, I can't believe that I can meet my fellow door here," Xiong Liu couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the laughter echoed through the grotto, like the neighing of a night owl. It's terrible.
"Brother Xiong, you are also a disciple of the Alliance?" asked Huang Yun with some astonishment.
"Yes, I am an elder of the Foreign Affairs Hall of the Alliance, my name is Xiong Yi, a few months ago, I met a mysterious cultivator in Shuangfeng City, this person is extremely strong, he should be a cultivator of the Danyuan Realm, he was captured and caught here. ”
"Disciple to see Uncle Shi," Huang Yun heard this, and immediately hit the snake with the stick, got up and hugged his fists and saluted. Being able to meet Uncle Alliance here is like meeting Lin Yi on the first mission, there is always a little bit of affection in it.
"Uncle Shi, don't mention it, just call me Brother Xiong!" Xiong Liu said with a wry smile.
"Okay, Brother Xiong," Huang Yun also knew that it was better to call Uncle Senior at this time than to call Brother Xiong kindly.
"Since you have seen the demon clan, you should know that the demon clan and us humans are the enemies of life and death. However, among the high-level leaders, there are many people who are making deals and compromises with the demon clan in private. ”
Speaking of this, a trace of helplessness flashed in Xiong Liu's eyes.
When Huang Yun heard this, he also nodded helplessly, after all, in that mission, several people eavesdropped on the conversation of the demon clan, and the human race used the demon beast as the object of the trial, while the demon clan took the human race as the object of the trial.
"This is not the place of the Demon Clan, but the place of the Chuhi Clan,"
"Oh, the Chuhi?" Huang Yun was stunned when he heard this.
"Yes, I'm also very curious, why did this Qiuxi clan mine the Demon Yuan Crystal, could it be that the Qiuxi clan and the demon clan have any connection, or what kind of deal?" Xiong Liu said here, falling into a short groan.
"Forget it, this is not something that we should consider, at the moment, the most important thing is to be able to live, not to be eroded by the demon qi here, and finally become a demon corpse. ”
"Demon corpse?" was another bombshell, blowing up Huang Yun on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Yes, when my face is covered with pockmarks, I lose my mind and become a half-human, half-ghost demon corpse. ”
"Is there a way to prevent it?" Huang Yun asked with a gloomy face in shock.
"There's no way, unless it's a cultivation of the demon clan's exercises, maybe there is a glimmer of life. Otherwise, even if you don't eat or drink, you will be affected by the demonic energy of the mine, and sooner or later you will turn into a demon corpse. Xiong Liu shook his head and said.
"Demon clan exercises?" Huang Yun frowned, he couldn't help but be a little depressed, when he was in the Thousand Caves, he had obtained a beast skin, but he didn't know the demon clan's words, and it was a demon clan's thing, so Huang Yun didn't bother to crack it. Now that I think about it, I can't help but regret it.
"It's useless, we don't know the demon language. Huang Yun muttered with a wry smile.
"What's the matter, have you ever seen the demon script?" asked Xiong Liu, with a slight difference.
"As I said earlier, during a mission, I once met some demon clans, and in their hands, I saw a beast skin, which was full of various symbols, and I don't know if it was the demon clan's exercises. ”
"Oh, do you remember now?" Xiong Liu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Do you know?" asked Huang Yun with some surprise.
"Yes," Xiong Liu nodded solemnly.
"At first, I only had a cursory glance, but I didn't look at it carefully, and I wanted to recall those symbols, so I thought about it. Huang Yun was overjoyed at first, and then sighed and said.
"Brother, you must remember! It's about whether we can survive or not. Xiong Liu thought silently in his heart.
After the tea, the yellow cloud swiped on the ground. Xiong Liu stood quietly aside, and his eyes gradually showed a look of surprise.
Huang Yun stopped writing and tossing for more than an hour, and both of them were a little hungry, and then they remembered about fifty demon symbols.
However, it was these fifty or so demon symbols that made Xiong Liu jump excitedly.
"Brother, you're amazing. You know what? We're saved. Xiong Liu gave Huang Yun a bear hug, which shows how strong the excitement in his heart is.
"Do you know them all?" Huang Yun was a little embarrassed by this kind of men's intimacy.
"Know, know, you listen to me read to you. Xiong Liu let go of the yellow cloud, picked up the torch in the distance, squatted on the ground and read it.
"Big brother, can you say something that I can understand?" Huang Yun said speechlessly with black lines on his face.
"How can I say this! The language of the demon clan is not a text, so he can't read it to you. In a word, he just expressed one meaning. Don't worry, though, I'll translate it for you. Xiong Liu scratched his head and was a little embarrassed.
"Oh!" Huang Yun replied helplessly.
"These demon clan characters you remember are a kind of demon clan's cultivation exercises, called Demon Yuan Jue. However, you don't remember it completely, and there are many loopholes. At the same time, it's still the most superficial part, but it doesn't matter, as long as I make up the missing part, I can cultivate. Although there is no guarantee that we will not become demon corpses, it should at least have a delaying effect. ”
"How long will it take?" asked Huang Yun with joy in his heart.
"It won't be long before we go back to the shelter to eat first, and I'll leave the matter of completing the exercises to me. Xiong Liu was in a good mood, laughed, picked up the animal leather belt on the ground, and pulled Huang Yun with a torch to the depths of the passage.
The two of them were not far from the shelter, and after walking for more than half an hour, they came to a grotto the size of a thousand feet.
In the grotto, there were about 100 or so people, all of them in rags and pale.
"Boss Bear," a pale, skinny man walked in.
"Han Laosan, this is Huang Yun, my newly recognized brother. You get to know each other. Xiong Liu laughed.
Han Laosan glanced Huang Yun up and down, nodded slightly, he had seen it.
"Brother Xiong, we have lost another brother," Han Laosan said as he pulled Xiong Liu to a more remote place.
"Who did it?" Xiong Liu's gaze suddenly became fierce.
"I don't know yet, but I've seen the traces of the fight, which looks like Cao Can's subordinate Li Yong did it. Han Laosan groaned for a while.
"What about them?" Xiong Liu's face sank, and a strong killing intent exuded from his body.
"Just left," Han Laosan said helplessly.
"Hmph, sooner or later, I'll have to settle accounts with them. Xiong Liu snorted coldly, and then handed the animal skin bag in his hand to Han Laosan.
"I'll change two meals and I'll send them later. ”
"Yes, boss. Han Laosan glanced at Huang Yun, and there was a hint of surprise in the depths of his eyes. I don't understand why Boss Xiong values Huang Yun so much.
"Let's go, there's a lot of people here, let's find a quiet place," Xiong Liu said after glancing down the hall.
Xiong Liu led Huang Yun, turned left and right, and walked to a grotto in the hall.
In the grotto, there were more than a dozen people, and when they saw the two of them coming, they all immediately stood up and saluted the bear boss.
"You all go out," Boss Xiong waved his hand, and the dozen or so people who had been staying in the grotto immediately walked out obediently.
"This is our place, relatively safe, and you can come here to rest when you are on your own. ”
"Thank you, Brother Xiong," by this time, Huang Yun had already understood that Xiong Liu should have a group of brothers under him, there were some forces here, and of course, there would definitely be enemies.
After a while, Han Laosan walked in with two food boxes, gave Huang Yun one, and walked out.
"Brother, after eating, you help me watch the point, and no one is allowed to come in. I have to concentrate on completing the exercises. While eating crude rice and pickles, Xiong Liu said vaguely.
"Brother Xiong, wouldn't it be quieter outside?" Huang Yun asked with some puzzlement.
