The two senior brothers who were holding Wu Baoru noticed that he really fainted, and the two nodded towards the master. The elders are all old and sophisticated guys, and they can usually understand each other's meaning with one look, so they naturally understand the meaning of the two. They were already suspicious of Yue Qianchou, with Wu Baoru's cultivation, if they really wanted to kill him, they could still let him run here. Now the junior brother who cultivated in his infancy was actually stunned alive, and the grievances he suffered can be imagined.

"Where is the law enforcement disciple!" Liu Changqing shouted. "Here!" several people popped up on both sides of the hall. The square suddenly fell silent, and Qi Shushu looked at the front of the hall, knowing that the head of the house was about to make a decision.

"Before the right and wrong are known, the disciples must not criticize. This matter will be put aside for the time being, and the truth will naturally be clear after Elder Wu recovers from his injuries. Liu Changqing spoke first, and then stared at the two people who shouted grievances: "Elder Wu chased and beat the disciples in public, and everyone saw it with their own eyes, punished and detained to recuperate and wait for treatment." Yue Qianchou insulted the teacher in public, and everyone heard it with their own ears, and punished the Lingshi Mine for hard labor and waited for treatment. What else do you have to say?"

Naturally, the disciples did not dare to have any opinions on the decision of the head of the sect. But everyone understands that this treatment is obviously a loss for Yue Qianchou. You must know that where the spirit stone mine is where people stay, it is clearly the place where the Qingguang Sect exiles its disciples. The disciples who came to work there were either very poor in their roots or had committed crimes. There is a quota for mining spirit stones every day, and those who fail to complete the task will be severely punished. I haven't heard of a few who have come back alive from there.

In everyone's eyes, Yue Qianchou is obviously a bitter master, but he received the heaviest punishment, which is inevitably reminiscent of the last time he offended the grandson of the head of the family, which is obviously revenge. No one dared to say anything, so he could only shake his head and sigh softly in his heart. Liu Zhengguang in the crowd was happy when he saw Yue Qianchou being punished to the spirit stone mine, but he also felt that his grandfather was doing this in public, which was a little too obvious.

"Senior Nephew Yue, do you have any opinions on how to deal with it like this?" Liu Changqing said coldly.

"The disciple is willing to be punished and does not dare to complain. Yue Qianchou replied with a desolate face, seeing that the disciples were sad. As everyone knows, when he heard that he was going to the spirit stone mine, his liver was beating wildly.

With a wave of his hand, Elder Wu was carried away, and Yue Qianchou was also escorted to the Spirit Stone Mine by the law enforcement disciples. Qu Ping'er stared at the stumbling and lonely back, biting her lips, she really couldn't imagine the scene of such a talented man doing hard labor in the Lingshi Mine.

......

The sun is shining, and outside the Lingshi Mine Cave, there is a row of stone caves on the left and right sides, all of which are the residences of mining disciples. In a clearing in front of them, nearly a hundred disciples in ragged clothes and dirty bodies were gathering in a heap. On a stone pillar in front of them, a disciple stripped of his shirt and tied to it with several iron chains.

"Woo bang! woo bang...... a barbed whip fluttered, and the whip whip splattered with a string of flesh. A whip down is a scream. The onlookers were all shocked.

A shirtless, meaty-faced monk walked back and forth with his hands in his hands. This person was a monk in the early days of the Yudan, named Gao Shiping, and was the guardian of this spiritual stone mine. He was staring at this group of frightened bird-like disciples. I only heard him say viciously: "See! This is the end of stealing spirit stones." I warn you, listen to me, don't take chances, no one can fish in troubled waters under my nose, uncle......"

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a streamer in the distance, and two law enforcement disciples escorted a dejected disciple to fall. Gao Shiping had a smile on his face, ran over with a flattering smile, and said with a flattering smile: "The two law enforcement brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, and they sent me someone again." As he spoke, he glanced at the dejected disciple. This person is the Yue Qianchou who was punished to do hard labor in the Lingshi Mine.

The two law enforcement disciples nodded, hearing the whip and screams, the two glanced at the place where the execution was carried out over there, and one frowned and asked, "Senior Brother Gao, what did that person do again?"

"Back to Senior Brother's words, this person is very hateful, he actually dared to secretly absorb the mined spirit stones in the spirit stone mine, and when he came out, he was found out by the sect's magic weapon, and he was whipped five hundred times according to the rules. Gao Shiping said.

Another law enforcement disciple shook his head and sighed, "I haven't heard of anyone alive under Senior Brother Gao's 'wolf tooth whip'. ”

Yue Qianchou glanced at it, and saw that the barbed wolf fang whip brought up a string of flesh, and was secretly frightened. Xin said: "What magic weapon? Lao Tzu still wants to steal spirit stones, I don't know if it's dangerous or not." ”

"If I don't impose heavy punishments, if everyone steals spirit stones in the future, then I really won't be able to give an account to the sect. Gao Shiping smiled, looked at Yue Qianchou and asked the two, "Why did this disciple come here?"

A law enforcement disciple shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Senior Uncle Hao's disciple, what else do you say?" ”

Gao Shiping exclaimed, seeing that the law enforcement senior brother had nodded in confirmation, he smiled with a smile on his face: "Hey! It turned out to be Senior Brother Yue, you are really kind, even the head of the family dares to offend." I will definitely entertain you well. After saying that, he turned around and shouted, "Here's someone!"

Yue Qianchou knew that he was very famous in the Qingguang Sect, but he didn't expect that even the spirit stone mine so far away would be known. Then an overseer ran over and took Yue Qianchou away under Gao Shiping's arrangement, and vaguely heard a law enforcement disciple say: "Senior Brother Gao, you can't kill this person, several elders have specially explained, and he keeps a useful ......."

The overseer took him to the mining disciples, and first gave him a glimpse of what a whip was called. Yue Qianchou didn't react after seeing it, and he didn't think that the executed disciple had anything to be pitied. In his words, since you dare to steal, you must be aware of being caught, and you don't deserve the sympathy of others for your own death.

He looked around at the mining disciples around him, all of them were skinny and skinny, and their dirty faces were full of insensitivity except for the horror that they had shown when they saw the execution. With a long sigh in my heart, it seems that these people have been living in oppression for a long time.

This group of overseers was also really ruthless, the disciples who were beaten on the stone pillar were already dead, and they still did not let go of the corpse until the wolf's tooth whip whipped the corpse to pieces. Seeing Yue Qianchou's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold light flashed, did they have a grudge, and they actually wanted to whip the corpse to vent their hatred.

Then the miners were driven back to their respective caves, and Yue Qianchou was led to a place by the overseer, there was not much space, only the floor bunks in it, and there were already three people lying down, it seemed that four people were going to squeeze it. The overseer said coldly, "You live here." Shi Xiaotian, you can tell him what to do later. The last sentence was said to a young man lying on the ground, and the young man named Shi Xiaotian heard the words of the overseer and hurriedly got up to answer. The overseer didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

Shi Xiaotian's face was very dirty, but he could vaguely see that he was a handsome young man, of course, Yue Qianchou had also stayed in the cultivation realm for so long, and he couldn't judge his age by his appearance. The former's big eyes looked at the newcomer blankly.

Yue Qianchou smiled at Shi Xiaotian friendly, but the people didn't seem to appreciate it, and only said follow me and didn't say anything more. With him, he received mining tools, and the things were very simple: a special pickaxe, and a basket that could be carried on his back. After doing this, Shi Xiaotian slowly told him some rules, and the two returned to the cave. In fact, Yue Qianchou wanted to ask him what the so-called magic weapon that could be checked was, but he didn't answer any questions.

The rules of mining don't sound difficult, but I don't know how to do it. Each person must hand over the amount of one high-grade spirit stone every day, which means that you can take 100 medium-grade or 10,000 low-grade stones. If you can't complete the task, you don't have to rest or eat. This is not the most important thing for cultivators, even if they are able to open the valley before reaching the Dan period, it doesn't matter if they don't rest or eat for a day or two. What's worse is that the difference that can't be completed today will be doubled tomorrow and accumulated to the next day, and if the task can't be completed within three days, the difference will be used to determine the severity of the punishment.

As for those who exceed the task, the excess can be accumulated to make up for the next time you don't complete it, so as to avoid the penalty. Or you can enjoy the spirit stones of one percent in excess of the amount, and the miners can choose the two ways at will. If someone chooses the latter, you have to be 100% guaranteed that you will be able to complete the task every time in the future, otherwise you will still be punished because your previous excess has already been used.

The strictest one is that if someone dares to steal spirit stones, or secretly absorb spirit stones in the mine, as long as they are discovered, it will be a dead end.

For these rules, Yue Qianchou remembered, he was not worried about whether he could complete the task and be punished, but he was thinking about how to steal the spirit stone without being discovered while ensuring the completion of the task. In this way, he can stay in the Spirit Stone Cave forever and steal it all the time.

In his current situation, if he wants to improve his cultivation, he needs spirit stones too much. Now that the opportunity is in front of him, it is impossible to get him not to steal. Because his way of thinking is no different from his previous life, the truth that horses have no night grass and no fat, and people have no windfall and no wealth is deeply imprinted in his consciousness. What worries him the most is what kind of magic weapon Gao Shiping said, if he hides the spirit stone in the gold bead, he doesn't know if it can be found.

The sound of snoring in the cave made Yue Qianchou very surprised, how could a cultivator sleep so deadly, what was the difference between this and mortals. He couldn't figure it out. I really wanted to hide in the world of golden beads, but I was afraid that someone would find out that he would disappear suddenly, so I had to endure the snoring of the three of them one after another.

The next day, Yue Qianchou found out that everyone here is taking care of themselves, and no one will pay attention to you. Then there were three people who learned from each other, carrying a basket on their backs, carrying a pickaxe, and followed a few people to the entrance of the Lingshi Mine. He stood in the crowd and looked around, looking very different, especially the clothes that were cleaner than the others, I don't know how many times, it was very dazzling.
