Chapter 265: A Piece of the Pie
There is no time for cultivation, and time passes imperceptibly.
Half a year has passed since the battle between Dichen and Murong Xiao, but the Eastern Wilderness has not stopped, and until now, those taverns and teahouses can still hear talk about the battle half a year ago. Cultivators and business travelers will inevitably mention that battle in their after-dinner conversations.
Some people who didn't have the opportunity to witness the battle between the two demons at that time would make a special trip to the east of Wushuang City to see the battlefield left behind by that battle. The collapsed mountain is still there, and the path has been cleared in the middle.
Although there are some changes, the ravines and boulders all over the ground can still vaguely show the grand occasion of the First World War at that time. This kind of destructive power can only be achieved by the Emperor War, but at that time, Emperor Chen and Murong Xiao were only emperor-level cultivators, so it is conceivable how powerful they will be after they advance to the emperor level.
For a month, Dichen is away from the Huoyuan Pagoda of Huofeng Peak, and the sect will always take good care of disciples like him, and the contribution points can be given away in large quantities, so Dichen does not have to worry about earning contribution points for the time being, and can cultivate in the Huoyuan Pagoda with peace of mind.
After stepping into the imperial rank, he entered the sixth layer of the Huoyuan Tower. I don't know if it's because he had a conflict with Sima Yan a hundred years ago because he chose the No. 8 cultivation room, and Di Chen also liked this number, so from the fourth layer, the fifth layer to the current sixth layer, he likes to cultivate in the No. 8 cultivation room.
Those new and old disciples were in awe of Dichen, and rarely entered the No. 8 cultivation room, and over time, the No. 8 cultivation room slowly became the exclusive use of Dichen. Of course, Dichen spent most of his time in the cultivation room, and no one else had a chance to enter.
Occasionally, someone entered the No. 8 cultivation room, and Di Chen didn't care about it, and chose to enter other cultivation rooms to cultivate. However, this situation rarely happens, because in the God of War Sect, there is no one who does not give Emperor Chen some face.
Even the elder Lihuo Peak Shangguan Elder with relatively old qualifications, that is, the tiger skin that Sima Yan pulled out at the beginning, was still not very friendly to him after the rise of Emperor Chen, but he didn't dare to scold and provoke.
On this day, as soon as the door of the No. 8 cultivation room opened, Dichen saw Luo Yu standing outside the door, looking at his appearance, he seemed to be a little anxious, obviously he had been standing outside the door for a while, and he made a special trip to wait for Dichen to come out.
"Master, you have finally come out. Seeing Dichen, Luo Yu exclaimed with joy.
"What's wrong?" asked Dichen, putting away the crystal card and tidying up his somewhat wrinkled clothes.
"Something big has happened, Master!" Luo Yu said with a solemn face.
"What's the big deal?" Di Chen's action of arranging his clothes paused, looked at Luo Yu's serious appearance, and said, "Is there something happening in the sect, you say." ”
Luo Yu blurted out: "It is indeed a matter of the sect, and it seems that someone is making trouble in our Yuanshi vein." ”
"Yuanshi vein?" Di Chen was startled. "When did it happen? Who had the guts to do that?"
It's no wonder that Emperor Chen is so anxious, Yuanshi is an important material for maintaining a sect's inheritance. The sect's great array of protectors needs the support of Yuan Stone, and the cultivation of elder disciples needs Yuan Stone, and the daily consumption is an astronomical amount, and the Yuan Stone vein is a mineral deposit dedicated to the production of Yuan Stone, and its importance is self-evident.
"This ...... The news I got this morning is not very clear at present, but I heard that it seems to be related to the Five Elements Sect. Luo Yu said with a sinister face.
"Five Elements Sect?" Di Chen sneered. "They're really haunted. ”
"What are the movements of the sect?" Di Chen asked after a moment.
"Sect Master, they are discussing, and I am here to wait for you. ”
"Really, then let's go quickly, go to the Temple of the God of War!" Di Chen walked towards the staircase on the sixth floor of the Huoyuan Tower, and Luo Yu followed closely behind.
......
In the Great Hall of the God of War, Sikong Tu, Lei Tianxiao and the other six peak masters were all present, as well as more than a dozen emperor-level elders, and the atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing.
"Damn, these grandsons of the Five Elements Sect really ate the bear's heart and mammoth guts, and they dared to go to the Yuanshi vein of our God of War Sect to make trouble, senior brother, let me take someone to destroy them!" Ximen Yao's face was full of anger, and he didn't care if there were other elders in the hall, so he directly burst into foul language.
"Senior brother, calm down!" Furukawa glanced at Ximen Yao and said comfortingly.
"Calm down, how can I calm down? Those grandchildren have bullied us, and they are calm birds......"
"Senior brother......" Lei Tianxiao scolded. "Why don't you change your stinky temper?"
"I ......" Ximen Yao said in a whisper, "Senior brother, aren't I in a hurry?"
Lei Tianxiao sighed and said, "What's the use of being anxious? The elder came to report, it wasn't a desolate beast that went to the Yuanshi vein to make trouble, it was just some elders and disciples, could it be that they could still hollow out the Yuanshi in such a short time?"
"What then, let them go?" said Ximen Yao with wide eyes and very angry.
"The No. 3 Yuanshi vein is not within the scope of my God of War Sect, and theoretically the entire Eastern Wilderness is qualified to excavate. Furukawa pondered for a moment and said, "But there is also a tacit understanding, that is, whoever discovers it first will be whose vein it is." ”
"That's it, the No. 3 vein was first discovered by our War God Sect, and it has been excavated for several years, and now the Five Elements Sect is coming to make trouble, what is this?"
Jin Xuantian glanced at him and said, "Senior Brother Ximen, whoever discovers it first is whoever it is, this is just a tacit understanding that has been formed slowly, and it is not a regulation of the Eastern Wilderness Alliance, which means that it does not necessarily have to be followed." ”
"Then, then there is no way?" Ximen Yao heard this, and suddenly all his confidence disappeared.
"Not really. Furukawa said suddenly.
"What do you think, junior brother?" asked Lei Tianxiao and Jin Xuantian at the same time. Sikong Tu, Lin Sen, Ximen Yao, Leng Xishui, Chen Yuanwu, and the elders all looked at Guhe.
Gu He glanced at everyone, considered his words for a moment, and then said: "We can't change the rules, but since the Five Elements Sect wants to play, we can't disturb their interest." ”
"What do you mean?" asked Chen Yuanwu in a deep voice.
"Senior brother, do you know how many mineral deposits there are in the No. 3 vein?" Furukawa turned his head to look at Lei Tianxiao.
Lei Tianxiao was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment, and said: "According to the detection, the No. 3 ore vein is not a big mineral deposit, our God of War Sect has been mining for nearly thirty years, and there should be very little mineral deposit left, and it can be all excavated in two years at most." ”
"Two years ......" Furukawa muttered to himself, and the others did not interject, Furukawa was smart and cautious, and acted calmly, everyone here knew it, so he patiently waited for Furukawa to give advice. After a long time, Furukawa spoke: "As far as I know, the Five Elements Sect seems to have discovered a vein of Yuan Shi recently, and it seems that the reserves are extremely huge......"
"You mean the exchange?" Sikong Tu asked faintly.
"Uncle Shi is right, it is exchange. Furukawa laughed.
"Exchange?" Ximen Yao looked puzzled, and then said: "Senior brother, although the group of grandsons of the Five Elements Sect are not good birds, they are not stupid, this deal is obviously a loss-making business, will they agree?"
Furukawa smiled: "What my junior brother said is very true, originally I thought they wouldn't be so stupid, I was a little envious of them for discovering big mineral deposits." But now the opportunity has come, since they want to come to the No. 3 vein to get a piece of the pie, then let's go to their big vein for a pot of fresh broth. ”
"Uncle Miaoce!" Di Chen's figure appeared outside the main hall, and he was walking towards the main hall step by step.
"You kid is still in time, come and sit!" Jin Xuantian saw Dichen coming in and pointed to an empty chair in the main hall.
Di Chen was not polite, he walked over and sat down directly, swept left and right, only to find that there were no other disciples in the main hall, and he was puzzled, but he heard Guhe ask with a smile: "Di Chen said that this is a wonderful strategy?"
"It's a brilliant idea. When Di Chen heard this, he no longer wondered why he was only one disciple. "There are not many mineral deposits left in the No. 3 Yuanshi vein of our God of War Sect, since he has a shy face to share dividends, we will simply share them with them. The disciple heard from his uncle outside the door that the Five Elements Sect had discovered a super-large ore vein, as long as we found this ore vein, we could go to dig it in a grand manner, and the Five Elements Sect would have no reason to stop it at that time, after all, they did the first year of junior high school, no wonder we did the fifteenth. ”
"Haha......" Ximen Yao grinned. "Sure enough, it's a clever strategy, they ignore this tacit agreement first, so why should we be polite to them? The Five Elements Sect likes our leftovers, let's go and share their delicacies from the mountains and seas. ”
Guhe's strategy is indeed a clever strategy, and everything outside the geographical scope of the sect is shared by the Eastern Wilderness, and no one can monopolize it. Tacit understanding is not a rule, so this kind of handling will not cause disputes with the Five Elements Sect, but can also obtain greater benefits, why not?
The Five Elements Sect has no face and no skin, and can ignore the tacit understanding formed over the years, but the God of War Sect can't really monopolize the No. 3 ore vein. However, they can find the veins possessed by the Five Elements Sect, and then ignore the tacit understanding with them. The Five Elements Sect first pulled down its face, and the God of War Sect retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, and others would not say anything, they would only laugh at the Five Elements Sect for its own doing.
"Those grandchildren are just cocooning themselves. Lin Sen scolded.
"The plan is indeed good, but if you can't find the veins of the Five Elements Sect, everything is empty talk. "The cold water that has not been silent is a basin of cold water as soon as it is opened, and everyone present is drenched from head to toe.
Lei Tianxiao and the others looked at each other and looked at Guhe. Furukawa was also a little embarrassed, smiled and said, "It is said that the ore vein is east of Wushuang City and west of the Five Elements Mountain Range, and the specific location is unknown. ”
"Then Uncle Shi means to send a team to find it?" Di Chen asked.
Gu He nodded and said: "That's true, the Five Elements Sect wants to come to the No. 3 vein to get a piece of the pie, our God of War Sect really has no reason to stop it, we can only mine together, and if you want not to suffer a loss, you can only repay the other with the other way." ”
"If that's the case, you might as well let the Wind God Valley and the War Sword Valley also come and mine together. Dichen suggested.
Lei Tianxiao glanced at Di Chen, and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, you are calculating the Wind God Valley and the War Sword Valley, and treating them as spears. In the past, when the ore vein was discovered, no one was called, but now that the Five Elements Sect has intervened, let them join in the fun, aren't you afraid that the two sects will have ideas?"
Dichen's thoughts were seen through, and he was also said in public, he blushed a little, touched his nose, and said: "The sect master was too worried, there was a tacit understanding at the beginning, we didn't inform them in advance, and they didn't notify us when they found the ore vein." Anyway, there are not many ore deposits in the No. 3 vein, and since the Five Elements Sect wants to share the food, then we simply inform the Wind God Valley and the Battle Sword Valley that they have more Yuan Shi for nothing, and they should gladly accept it. ”
Everyone felt that there was some truth when they heard this, and nodded faintly.
Di Chen seemed to be appreciated, and continued: "With the relationship between the War God Sect and the Wind God Valley and the War Sword Valley, they can also have more helpers when looking for the super large ore veins of the Five Elements Sect, and they will definitely be interested in the super large mineral deposits, especially the super large mineral deposits of the Five Elements Sect. ”
"Haha, you kid is really treacherous and cunning!" Ximen Yao laughed loudly, if he hadn't been too far away from Dichen, he might have rushed over and patted Dichen on the shoulder to show his appreciation.
But what he said didn't sound like praise at all.
