Chapter 20: The Troubles of Novices

"You, don't look around, just say you, come here!" the overseer at the entrance of the cave pointed at Yue Qianchou and shouted unceremoniously. The latter realized that the people in front of him had gone in and hurried over.

The overseer held a bronze mirror and looked at him, and a white light flashed on the mirror.

Could this be a magic weapon? While still wondering, the overseer pushed him into the mine: "Dressed like a human dog." Next!"

He heard the words of the overseer behind him, and without thinking much about it, he looked at the mine. It's dark, and I really don't know how to dig spirit stones in this environment. Slowed down and walked in, his eyes gradually adjusting to the darkness, and after walking for long, he heard the sound of several people running in. The gold ingots fell in front? I really convinced them, and they can also run in this environment. Shaking his head, he suddenly noticed sporadic lights on the walls around the mine.

What is this? In the middle of the road, there are more and more sporadic lights, which are complicated and complicated all over the four walls, even under the feet, making people feel like they are walking on the Avenue of Stars. When I got closer, I realized that it was glowstone. This is obviously not artificially installed, it is innate. This also explains his initial idea, why it is possible to dig spirit stones in the cave without lighting.

Standing at several forks in the mine, choosing which side to enter, some miners rushed into each fork in a hurry. Although I don't know why, there must be a reason why everyone is in such a hurry. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated to pick a hole and walked in quickly.

The deeper you go into the mine, the more large and small forks you find, like a spider's web. It's the same place as the labyrinth, and he's really worried that he won't be able to get out if he runs too in. frowned, shook his head and smiled and scolded stupidly, since the terrain is downward, just walk towards the high ground when you want to go out.

The sound of someone digging could already be faintly heard in many holes, and he didn't know where to dig, so he picked a louder hole and drilled into it.

"Ding Ding Ding ......" turned a corner when he heard the voice, and there was Lou Zi on the ground, which had already contained several low-grade spirit stones, including a medium-grade one. A miner is digging with a pickaxe.

"Oh, yes, yes, it's already been rewarded. Yue Qianchou smiled enthusiastically, and as he spoke, the basket behind him was also unloaded, and he looked around with a pickaxe, ready to find a place to start.

The dinging sound suddenly stopped, he turned his head to look, the miner was looking at him vigilantly, he nodded and smiled again, obviously people were not very welcome, and smiled a little awkwardly.

"Get out! here's the vein I discovered first. "The miner's words were very polite. Yue Qianchou is a little angry, damn it! Everyone is a miner, why should they drive me out. But I can't see the cultivation of others, obviously they are higher than his cultivation of the fifth level of qi refining.

Although I was unhappy in my heart, I decided to swallow this breath for the sake of the great cause of stealing spirit stones. glanced at him, picked up the basket and walked out with a calm face.

The next situation was the same, there was a person digging in every small hole, and when he saw him, he unceremoniously announced, "This is my territory, let me out!" What made him most discouraged was that almost everyone he saw had a higher cultivation than him, and there was no one who held his stomach and wanted to find a fire.

Now I finally understand why those people used to run after entering the mine, they were all afraid that the spirit stone vein they found last time would be occupied by others, so they ran to occupy the territory first.

In a fit of rage, he walked towards the deepest place. I don't know how many years the mine has been dug, how long it has been walking, and I don't know how many detours it has taken to finally reach the end of the mine.

"Damn! no one here will chase Lao Tzu anymore!" he scolded, put down the basket, and couldn't help but get excited with the pickaxe in his hand. The dead end in front of him seemed to have made him see the spirit stone beckoning.

Raise the pickaxe with both hands and dig it down hard, ding!

"Damn!" Yue Qian screamed, threw his pickaxe aside, and raised his numb hands in embarrassment. With a shake of his hand, he picked up the guy and tried it on the walls of the cave around him, and it was as hard as a stone everywhere. No wonder I heard the sound of mining like striking iron, because I was too anxious.

After trying again, he couldn't laugh or cry, what kind of mining is this? I really didn't know that the spirit stone used to grow in such a place, and the amount of spirit stone for so many people in the Qingguang Sect was dug out little by little by these people here. Although I heard that there were still a few spirit stone mines in other places, the miners who wanted to come there were not much more comfortable.

I tried to inject true qi into the pickaxe, and it was dug up. Yue Qianchou was very excited, threw off his arms and dug desperately.

It's good to be motivated to do your work, but it's often the most painful thing to do without results. He dug for most of the day, not to mention the spirit stone, and he didn't even see a single hair. Under such continuous consumption, the true qi in the body is also beyond its means, and under this situation, the spirit stone has not been dug to the point that he has to die of exhaustion.

He was not a headless and brainless man, so he immediately stopped and decided to think about what the problem was first.

With a little limited common sense in the previous life, the first thing that is certain is that things such as gold and gemstones have veins and directions, and I believe that the same is true for spirit stones, and the glowstone everywhere should be the associated ore of spirit stones.

This spider-like hole must have been dug by the previous miners, and if he doesn't dig here, does it mean that there are no spirit stones in front of him? I want to ask someone, but the miners here estimate that it is a result whether they ask or not, and no one will tell you. What a headache!

"Holy! Why am I so stupid. Yue Qian patted her forehead in annoyance, isn't Sister Bai's fox clan an expert in making holes, just ask her and understand. After carefully probing around, and after making sure that there was no one, he picked up the guy and disappeared.

"Sister Bai, help! uh......" Yue Qianchou, who had returned to his own territory, just shouted a few times, and stopped abruptly. A forest suddenly appeared in front of me, with bamboo swaying and a familiar melody coming from the forest. If it weren't for the fact that he could still see the purple chaos all around, he really wondered if he was in the wrong place.

Walking into the forest in disbelief, a verdant and exquisite bamboo house appeared in front of him, and its style was very retro. The bamboo house is surrounded by a circle of bamboo fences, and there is a small bamboo pavilion inside, and the peerless beauty in it is like snow and singing softly, who else can there be if it is not a white fox?

Yue Qianchou, who was relieved, looked around again, and smiled with satisfaction! Looking at the white fox playing and singing, I had to admire, it was really engaged in art, and its aesthetics were a step higher than ordinary people.

The forest surrounds the bamboo forest, and the bamboo forest surrounds the bamboo house, and the environment is quiet. He didn't expect that what he threw in a few days ago would be tossed like this by the white fox in just a few days, and the layout was just right and pleasing to the eye.

Walked in with a smile, don't look at the white fox without even raising her head, she must have known that she was coming with her cultivation in the late stage of the tribulation. Yue Qianchou walked to the pavilion and shouted, "Sister Bai!"

Unexpectedly, the white fox ignored him and didn't even raise his head. Yue Qianchou sighed in her heart, she had an opinion about herself, and she didn't know where she provoked her, this is not a good thing, and she was about to ask her for help.

Yue Qian sat on the side with a hippie smile on his face, and probed his brain and said, "Yo! Whose beauty is this playing the piano? Beauty, beauty, beauty......"

To tell the truth, after this younger brother threw himself here, he couldn't even see a figure for a few days, which made her feel like she had just been released from captivity and was trapped by someone, how could she not be angry. But there is really no way to meet this dead-faced person, he ignores himself, and he will stop screaming about beautiful women.

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, the white fox's face flushed slightly, raised her head and said angrily: "Do you still know that there is a sister like me? If you have the ability, don't come back...... Are you digging spirit stones?" The latter sentence was said by the guy who saw Yue Qianchou in his hand.

Yue Qian was stunned for a moment, the white fox's words made him a little strange, as if his wife who lived alone at home finally saw her dead ghost husband after a few days. The thought flashed, and he replied lightly: "My sister is really like a torch, and I can see it at a glance......" and then told the white fox that he was punished to do hard labor in the spirit stone mine, but he concealed the wronging of Wu Baoru. This sentiment is understandable, and no one is willing to make their despicable and shameless side public.

He told the White Fox that the meaning of his words was that because he offended the head of the Qingguang Sect, now that his master was dead again, he was immediately retaliated against by the head of the sect and sent to the spirit stone mine to do hard labor, and once he could not complete the task, he would face severe punishment.

"The head of the dignified faction is so narrow-minded. The white fox frowned, stared at the smiling face opposite and said, "You have a golden bead and want to escape from the Qingguang Sect, and no one can stop you, could it be that you are here to ask me for help?"

"Haha! Sister Yingming, you know before I even say it. Yue Qianchou smiled.

The white fox was slightly annoyed, but still took out the 'pangolin claw' from the sachet on his waist and threw it to him.

Yue Qianchou hugged something and smiled from ear to ear, stood up and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something and asked: "I saw a disciple of the Qingguang Sect at the entrance of the mine with a bronze mirror in his hand and shone it on me, does my sister know what it is for?"

"It's just an ordinary magic weapon, and it doesn't have much effect. Someone has stolen the aura or secretly hid the spirit stone on the body, and it is easy to find out with it. The spirit stone mines of all the major sects in the cultivation realm will use it. Why are you asking this?" said the white fox in a strange way.

"It's nothing, sister, if I put the spirit stone in the gold bead, can the magic weapon be found?" Yue Qianchou asked again.

The white fox shook his head lightly and said, "Generally, the spirit stones in the storage bag can't be found with it, and it is even more difficult to find the space inside the golden bead." ”

"Oh!" Yue Qianchou breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "What worries me is going to die, since I can't find it, then I'll rest assured." Sister, I'll go first. ”

"Ah...... You ......" The white fox was stunned for an instant, the dead guy asked these I'm afraid he was stealing spirit stones, so wouldn't he be helping to abuse, just reacted, and wanted to stop him for questioning, but the latter was gone.
