Chapter 51: The Purple Stone

Seeing that the dried meat was roasted, Zhou Nan didn't care about it, and as soon as he lifted the flying sword, he bit it with a big mouth. He hadn't eaten a good meal for two years, which made his eating appearance extremely terrifying. Just looking at it, I feel terrified.

Not long after, a large piece of barbecue jerky entered Zhou Nan's stomach. Filling his stomach, sitting on the mat, with his back against the stone wall, Zhou Nan held the flying sword in his hand, picking his teeth, squinting his eyes slightly, thinking about the next plan.

Two years ago, as soon as he came to the mining area, he did not hesitate to kill the three Confucian students, and forced some words out of the Confucian students' mouths. But Zhou Nanzhi said that there are very few credible things in this sentence. But the situation was urgent, and he didn't have time, so he could only hurry into the mine, find a random place, dig out the cave, and retreat first.

Because he knows the Tao, only by raising his cultivation can he deal with more unexpected situations.

From the mouth of Confucius, I learned that the disciples of the Xuanhuo Sect who had cultivated to the high point had disappeared inexplicably, and the spearhead was directed at the Uncle Yue who had never met. There are a lot of weird things about this matter, which makes Zhou Nan always feel incredible.

The Xuanhuo Sect is also a famous sect with a surname, and there are two monks in the Jiedan alone, how can they be so negligent about the lifeline of the sect, the Xuanhuo Stone Vein? This, no matter how it is explained, always makes Zhou Nan unable to figure it out and has doubts.

"Could it be that the high-level officials of the Xuanhuo Sect also know about this matter, but for some reason, they have to do it?" Suddenly Zhou Nan thought of something, stopped what he was doing, opened his eyes, and a thick shock appeared on his face.

After bowing his head and pondering for a while, Zhou Nan raised his head, but at this moment, a bright light flashed in his eyes, "That's right, this matter must be related to the high-level of the Xuanhuo Sect." Otherwise, this thing wouldn't be so weird. The reason why I was sent here, a low-level disciple who only had the fourth level of Qiling at that time, was probably because I was so easy to control. ”

Thinking of this, Zhou Nan reminded himself in his heart that he must be careful of the Xuanhuo Sect.

In the mine, a group of hungry miners with black eyes and beggars were lying on the ground in a mess. From time to time, he let out a weak moan, looking like that, he didn't live long.

Suddenly, the stone wall on the side of the mine road shook, and there was a loud "boom", and the miners were all startled and instinctively wanted to retreat. But his whole body, which was already hungry, was weak, so he could only use his eyes that could still move, staring closely at the stone wall.

After a few dozen breaths, the sound stopped, and when the dust cleared, the miners found that a passage had been cracked in the stone wall. After a while, a young man in a green coat slowly walked out of the cave.

Although they didn't know who the man in green clothes was, the miners found that this man had a full face and vigorous blood, which was hundreds of times better than their half-dead appearance. It can be seen that he is well fed and full.

Thinking of a possibility, the miners all stared at the man in Tsing Yi with fiery eyes. The throat, which had already been dry, couldn't help but make a sound of swallowing saliva. It's terrifying.

This man in Tsing Yi is Zhou Nan, after figuring out everything, he packed up his things, opened the previous mine, and prepared to come out and take action. But as soon as he came out, he saw a large group of ghost-like miners, staring at him, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart. What made Zhou Nan feel goosebumps even more was that this group of miners were staring at him with fiery eyes, and such hateful eyes made him very uncomfortable.

"What's the matter with you, get up and talk back personally?" Zhou Nan glanced at the mine slave and said majestically.

All the mine slaves, you look at me, I look at you, and at the end, an old mine slave with white hair was elected by everyone, got up slightly, and came to Zhou Nan. The old mine slave saluted Zhou Nan and said respectfully, "Little Lao'er has seen the immortal chief. ”

"How do you know that I am an immortal elder?" Zhou Nan raised his eyebrows and said strangely.

The fairy asked him, and the little old man didn't dare to deceive. Xiao Lao'er has been a mining slave for decades, and this immortal has also seen him many times. All immortals, the aura on their bodies is very different from us mortals. As soon as you get closer, you will feel it. It is on this basis that Xiao Lao'er can tell that the immortal chief is an immortal. The old mine slave lowered his head and said truthfully.

"I see. It's just that how did you all become like this? Remember, when I first came in two years ago, none of you were like this. Zhou Nan nodded, pointed to the miners on the ground, and said suspiciously.

"Alas, it's hard to put into words. As I remember, two years ago, the steward here suddenly gave us an order for some unknown reason. Doubled the amount of ore that everyone could turn in on time each month. If we mine slaves want to survive, we have to exchange ore for food, but the amount of this handed in has doubled, and we can still do it at first, but it doesn't take long for us to get tired and injured, and we can't complete the task, so they cut off our rations. ”

During this period, I don't know how many people starved to death because they didn't have anything to eat. The miners were unwilling and launched several strikes and riots. But they were all suppressed alive by those immortals, and they killed a lot of troublemakers. Therefore, after a few times, everyone was deflated and had no hope, so they could only wait for death here. Occasionally digging some mines, lingering and breathing. ”

After listening to the old mine slave's narration, Zhou Nan had a calm face and did not react.

He kept looking at Zhou Nan's expression, and seeing that he didn't say anything, the old mine slave gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "Immortal Chief, looking at you like this, there must be a lot to eat." As long as you give us some, we are willing to exchange the ore. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Nan smiled slightly, and said with interest, "Tell me about the ore you have, aren't you afraid that I will kill you? After speaking, his face was blank, and the corners of his mouth lifted an arc, revealing a demonic smile.

Seeing Zhou Nan's smile, the old mine slave was frightened and took a few steps back. But when he thought that there was nothing to eat, Heng and Vertical would die, so he continued to grit his teeth and continued, "The Immortal Chief said and laughed, without food, we will all die Heng and Vertical. If you can get a chance to survive in the immortal chief, you will also earn it. It's just that we are dead, and no one knows where the ore is hidden. ”

Looking at the treacherous old mine slave who still had some courage, Zhou Nan smiled. Holding his chin with one hand, he thought for a while, and said lightly, "Okay, lead the way." As long as the ore satisfies me, I can eat enough. ”

After listening to Zhou Nan's answer, the mine slaves were shocked, and hurriedly under the leadership of the old mine slaves, they used their strength to eat milk and ran towards the place where the ore was hidden. Zhou Nan smiled, took a calm step, and followed behind.

Everyone was in the mine, and they were all around. I don't know how many turns the road turned, and after a full cup of tea, everyone came to a mine cave about ten zhang in size.

Seeing Zhou Nan coming, everyone opened a way. Pointing to the large pile of ores on the ground, the old mine slave said respectfully, "Immortal Chief, please see, this is all the ore we have hidden in the past two years. ”

Looking at the big pile of ore in front of him, Zhou Nan nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad." But I have a question, why don't you use it to get food, which is enough for you to exchange a lot of food?"

Hearing this, the miners said in a gossipy manner, this is to say that the above immortals killed my brother, and this one said that they killed my son. In short, the mine slaves hated the stewards above to the core. Even if you die, you don't want to do that kind of stupid thing. Besides, how many people can eat the food exchanged for these ores?

"Okay, I'll take these ores, this pile of rice for you, one grain per person for three days, enough for you to live for more than half a year, as for what you will do after half a year, it's not something I should worry about. After speaking, Zhou Nan waved his sleeves, and there was an extra pile of millet on the ground. It's all the spiritual rice he hasn't eaten.

Without any further delay, Zhou Nan took out the storage bag and put away the ore in the adoring eyes of the miners, but suddenly, he stopped with a pause in his hand. Bending down, Zhou Nan picked up a small purple stone from the ore pile.

After a sweep of his thoughts, Zhou Nan found that this purple stone was also a Xuanflint, but it was only one level higher than the red Xuanfu. Both the material and the fire energy contained in it are more superior, which made him interested at once.

Pinching the purple stone, Zhou Nan asked, "Where did this stone be dug?"

Hearing this, the old mine slave took a closer look, thought for a while, and said slowly, "Qi Qi Immortal, this purple ore was unintentionally picked up in the deepest mine cave a few years ago. It was a hot place, and if I hadn't been clever, this old bone would have been explained a long time ago. ”

Nodding, Zhou Nan asked about the origin of the purple stone, and then continued to load the ore. There is a lot of ore, if you don't eat the food in the storage bag almost finished, two storage bags, four zhang of space, it is really not enough.

Putting away the storage bag, Zhou Nan didn't stay, and after a few dodges, he got out of the big hole and disappeared.
