Ishikawa immediately stopped the movement of the Tengen puppet, stepped forward, and put his palm on the black stone, and a strange cold feeling immediately spread throughout Ishikawa's body.

Ishikawa injected another stream of spiritual power, and the spiritual power immediately disappeared without a trace.

"This is indeed a black stone!" Ishikawa began.

"Is it really Blackstone?" the crowd exclaimed. The exposed part alone is five or six zhang wide, so you can imagine how huge this black stone should be, this is definitely a huge black stone that everyone has never seen.

Although this black stone has nothing to do with everyone, but such a huge black stone will definitely be praised by Jinhua Granny, and the benefits will naturally not be less.

Ishikawa looked at such a huge black stone and felt quite conflicted in his heart.

It is naturally a great thing to be able to encounter such a huge black stone, and after Ishikawa checked it slightly, he found that there were extremely rich crystals in this black stone.

On the other hand, the existence of this black stone has slowed down the excavation progress of Ishikawa.

After a slight groan, Ishikawa spoke, "Dig immediately, and you must dig out this black stone as quickly as possible." ”

Ishikawa manipulated two of the Tengen puppets on one side, extending to both sides in the direction of the black stone.

As for the monks, they were divided into two groups, following behind the Tian Yuan puppet, cleaning up the rocks excavated by the Tian Yuan puppet, among these rocks, there was no trace of the black stone, but as the excavation progressed, the black stone extended longer and longer.

Five days later, I still haven't seen the edge of the black stone.

"Forty-five, this black stone is extremely huge, I'm afraid we can't dig it out, should we tell the Jindan seniors about the discovery of this stone. A monk said to Ishikawa.

Actually, this is what most people think, because this black stone has reached hundreds of zhang. It's not something that this group of monks can dig up at all.

Ishikawa groaned. Gather all the monks together without waiting for the people to speak. Ishikawa immediately said, "Fellow Daoists. Do you know what the Blackstone can be used for?"

"I don't know. Everyone looked at Ishikawa in surprise, their faces full of doubt.

"Forty-five, what are you asking for?"

Ishikawa nodded and continued to ask, "Can the black stone be purchased in the market?"

"Probably not. Even if you can buy it, it's sky-high. One of the monks asked, "Forty-five." The key question now is what to do with such a large piece of blackstone, not to ask useless questions. ”

Ishikawa waved his hand and asked again, "Then what do you fellow Daoists think?" What exactly can these blackstones be used for? Who will use it in the end?"

"Naturally, it's the Golden Flower Mother-in-law, the black stone is so precious, how can it be used by ordinary monks. One of the monks said angrily.

"One last question, why didn't Granny Jinhua find her disciples to mine blackstone, but asked us to mine blackstone, and for hundreds of years. The story has never been circulated. Could it be that we are the first monks to be chosen by Granny Jinhua?"

"Forty-five, you seem to have something to say. Why don't you make it clearer?" some monks had already grasped some deep meaning from Ishikawa's words.

"Give you a quarter of an hour to think about it, if I make a mistake, you can bring it up. Ishikawa was in no hurry to explain.

Ishikawa continued to manipulate the Tian Yuan puppet to excavate, and at this moment, the four Tian Yuan puppets were lined up, dusty, and the speed of progress was also extremely fast, after all, it was just an ordinary rock, and even a black stone the size of a little thumb could not be seen.

Soon, a quarter of an hour passed. "Forty-five, what do you mean: this is a conspiracy?, but as far as I know, many people have passed the test and received guidance from Granny Jinhua. The reason why I don't know about this is probably that they are just tight-lipped. One of the monks asked his own question.

Ishikawa said as he cleaned up the abandoned rocks, "If dozens of people can keep their mouths shut, I believe that if hundreds of people are tight-lipped, I can barely believe it, but what about thousands? What about tens of thousands? Can you guarantee that everyone can keep their mouths shut? And why does Granny Jinhua trust the monks of the foundation building period so much?"

Ishikawa's words left the monk speechless.

"Forty-five, among the eighteen of us, you have the highest cultivation, and you are now our leader, can you explain what is going on? What do you want us to do?"

"There are only two ways to keep a person's mouth shut, the first is to make the person a dead person, and the other is to erase the person's memory. "Erase memories?" When everyone heard this, their hearts were shocked.

In a short period of time, the mood of the crowd turned from ecstasy to fear.

What Ishikawa said was incomprehensible and difficult for everyone to accept. But the facts are in front of you, and none of what Ishikawa said is false, and when these words are connected, everyone finds something wrong with them.

"Forty-five, what are you going to do?"

"Dig it out!" Ishikawa said without hesitation: "There are still ten days or so, if we can delay it, it can even be extended by a month, within this time, we will dig a passage to the outside of Huaci Mountain, so that we can escape." ”

"Of course, if you don't want to participate, I won't force it, but if you want to report it, it's impossible. Ishikawa warned.

The excavation speed of the four Tianyuan puppets was very fast, and in a short time, they extended forward by forty or fifty zhang.

"I've seen Daoists who passed the test last time, and they seem to be doing well, even if they erase their memories, what is erased should be the memories of Blackstone, and it doesn't seem to have any effect on other aspects. A monk spoke.

"I think Forty-Five has a point. I definitely don't want to be erased from my memory, even if it's the slightest bit, although Granny Jinhua's cultivation is high, but I can't make a move in my mind and erase other memories for me. ”

Soon, the crowd no longer doubted Ishikawa's statement, but gradually divided into two factions.

One faction believes that erasing a little memory will not have much impact, and it will also be able to get the guidance of Granny Jinhua, and the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. On the other hand, the other school of thought believes that memories must not be erased, which is a great damage to the divine consciousness, and may lead to the inability of the divine consciousness to grow, or even the inability to cultivate for the rest of their lives.

"Alright, don't argue!" Ishikawa said, "Before the excavation is over, try to mine as much as possible, if you can't escape, then report the information that you have excavated to the huge black stone, and then you can only wait for some of the memories to be erased." Of course, it would be nice to be able to escape. I still have a lot of black stones in my storage bag, if I can escape from this place, I will give a part of it to all fellow Daoists, plus the black stones accumulated on your fellow Daoists, it should be a lot of money. ”

After listening to Ishikawa's words, everyone nodded, if it was according to what Ishikawa said, it was okay to enter and retreat.

And at the thought that the black stone on his body belonged to him, everyone began to get excited.

You must know that everyone has dozens or even hundreds of black stones accumulated on their bodies, and if they can successfully leave here and sell or exchange these black stones, it is enough for most people to cultivate to the Fake Pill stage, and it is even possible to exchange them for the Golden Pill. ..., this is much more real than getting the guidance of Granny Jinhua.

"Let's listen to the forty-five!" the group began to act, holding the pickaxes Ishikawa had given them.

"Let's divide into three groups and rotate once an hour!" Ishikawa exhaled lightly.

With the help of these monks, the digging speed can be doubled.

Ishikawa chose to dig on the upper road, and although he lost a choice, Ishikawa had no choice, and with Ishikawa, there were only eighteen people in total.

By the end of the month, the crowd was exhausted.

But no one stopped, and everyone was digging with all their might, and Ishikawa took out a large amount of precious spirit wine and distributed it.

With the nourishment and assistance of spirit wine, the monks' digging speed has increased a lot.

As the tunnel was excavated, Ishikawa discovered that the black stone was in the shape of an arc, and if he excavated along the black stone, he would probably have to go around a huge circle and eventually return to the original point.

After a little calculation, Ishikawa chose the direction again, but since then, the speed of excavation has slowed down a lot, because after moving away from the large black stone, some small and trivial black stones have reappeared in the rock.

In the blink of an eye, the third month has come to an end.

Ishikawa and others excavated thousands of zhang, but there was still no hope of excavation.

Ishikawa pondered and said: "Fellow Daoists, continue to dig, I still have some black stones in my hands, and I will hand them over to the Jindan period monks, the number of deliveries this time is not much, we should still be able to buy a month." ”

Everyone nodded, and they had no other choice.

Ishikawa left the Golden Winged Sparrow Spirit behind to prevent anyone from escaping out and leaking information. He sped towards the entrance of the cave.

By the time Ishikawa arrived at the entrance of the cave, the other three Jindan monks had been waiting for a long time.

"Senior!" Ishikawa handed over a storage bag.

"So little?" said the Jindan monk furious.

The three False Dan Stage Monks couldn't help but shudder.

Ishikawa naturally knew that there were definitely a lot of black stones in his storage bag, except for the ones that were accumulated last time, Ishikawa was afraid that this Jindan period monk would find any flaws, so he deliberately added some of the black stones he had accumulated to it.

Since this Jindan period monk said this, there must be some deep meaning.

Sure enough, as Ishikawa expected, the Jindan period monk spoke: "I read that you have excavated a lot in the first two months, so I will spare you this time, otherwise I will have to teach you a lesson." Since the number of digs is so small this month, you can dig for an extra month, just like the three of them. ”

"The juniors know. Ishikawa was overjoyed, the Jindan period monk made this decision, it should be to ask Ishikawa to dig more black stones for him, which is also in line with Ishikawa's intentions.

The three fake Dan stage monks all had a look of schadenfreude on their faces.
