Green mountains are beside it and green water is on the verge.
A huge tent made of animal skins inlaid with gold and jade was set upright in the forest, surrounded by many smaller tents.
The bonfire was raised, the smoke was thin, and the cleaned beasts were set up on the bonfire. Hua Xinxin and a dozen of the 'good sisters' of the Ren family gathered together, smearing various colorings on the beast meat, and letting out crisp and cheerful laughter from time to time. Voice.
Hua Xinxin is having a lot of fun, such red sleeves add 'oil', and the taste of outdoor barbecue, how can you experience it in the Hua family mansion on weekdays
It's so wild and interesting.
He was busy playing with his good sisters, and the important task of surveying the mineral veins was left to a few craftsmen leaders in the Hua family brigade.
Originally, all this was supposed to be coordinated by the Ninth General Manager. However, the Ninth Manager was beaten to a pulp, and he was carefree and not good at mundane affairs, so he had to leave it to his subordinates.
Fortunately, in addition to the few craftsman leaders, there were also elites like Ren Shanwen and Ren Duxing to help. Ren Shanwen took care of the logistics work properly. Ren Duxing was actually very capable of management and mobilization. Under his command, Ren Duxing The servants and guards of the family, working with the craftsmen of the Hua family, quickly erected a row of more than a dozen towers at the foot of the mountain.
In the middle of the metal tower, which is nearly a hundred feet high, a straight metal pile rotates slowly, driving the drill bit on the pile head to rotate rapidly, slowly approaching the ground, and then the alloy-forged drill bit densely covered with runes drills quickly. Into the ground.
'laugh'!
The metal drill pipe penetrated into the ground inch by inch, and a large amount of soil mist was sprayed out from behind the shining metal drill bit. Be it soil or hard rock formations, they are as fragile as tofu in front of these secret drill bits.
The drill pipe quickly extended ten feet into the ground, and a new drill pipe was connected behind the drill pipe. The tower emitted a faint light, and the drill pipe continued to be driven into the ground.
Several large men with stout bodies, arms almost as thick as an ordinary person's waist, extremely strong hands, and a large number of scars caused by high-temperature metal juice on their arms stood between the towers, carefully observing the trend of the surrounding mountains.
Occasionally they would walk up to the tower and listen to the sound of the drill pipe.
Sometimes there are extremely hard rock formations underground. When the drill bit breaks through these rock formations, it will make a sharp friction sound. At this time, the masters worshiped by these flower families will order to slow down the rotation speed of the drill bit and let the drill pipe go downwards. The speed of advancement also slowed down.
Wu Tie squatted halfway up a small cliff more than ten miles away.
There was a protruding rock here. He was like a huge vulture, squatting in mid-air with his back against the cliff. He could just see what was going on in Hua Xinxin's camp. At the same time, he had a clear view of the scene near the dozen towers. .
When the master craftsmen of the Hua family ordered the erection of the tower, Wu Tie squinted his eyes, with a gray and chaotic light shining in his eyes. He was also observing the nearby mountains.
He subconsciously used the secret techniques of 'Feng Shui Kanyu' and 'Looking for Dragon Points' that Lao Tie inherited.
In his field of vision, the color of the world suddenly changed, and the mountains and rivers turned into magnificent torrents of energy. The torrent in the mountains is stable and firm, with very few signs of movement; the torrent in the river is extremely agile, and the vast and endless flow continues forward.
The torrents of Yuan energy with different colors and depths interacted with each other and echoed each other, washing out various large and small Yuan energy vortexes on the earth. These energy vortexes have different colors and different attributes.
The master craftsmen of the Hua family are indeed good at it. Each of the towers they erected is located exactly above an energy vortex.
As the drill pipe continued to penetrate deeper into the tower, in Wu Tie's field of vision, a drill bit was less than ten feet away from the energy vortex below.
After another quarter of an hour, a "chi" sound was heard, and the rock formation above the Yuan Neng vortex was completely drilled. A large amount of sharp breath was sprayed out along the vent hole on the drill head and along the dense patterns on the drill pipe. It hit the ground, and several tiny rock fragments were ejected.
A master craftsman from the Hua family, with his sharp eyesight and quick hands, grabbed the drill pipe, and a shiny black rock fragment was held in his hand.
"Teacher." The master of the Hua family gave a low voice and sent the black rock fragment in front of an old man with gray hair and beard, who was as square as a dwarf and looked like an iron pillar.
The old man grabbed the egg-sized rock fragment and glanced at it, and said solemnly: "Han Iron Ore, the cold iron content is 37%... The reserve capacity is about tens of millions of kilograms, which is not a good thing."
After pondering for a moment, the old man put the fragment to his nose and smelled it, then broke off a small piece of black stone and stuffed it into his mouth to taste it for a while. He said slowly: "There is a hint of sweetness, and there must be red gold mine below. Companion... Well, if we drill down another hundred feet, if the red gold mine is big enough, it will be worth mining here for a while."
Throwing the cold iron ore on the ground, the old man said softly: "If it was just a cold iron mine, there would be no need to waste energy here."
Several master craftsmen of the flower family agreed, and a burly master raised his right hand and shouted loudly: "Drill another hundred feet to see if there is a vein of red gold. If not..."
The great craftsman looked at the sky.
Night comes quickly in the mountains and forests. Surrounded by high mountains and ridges, the sun will easily set on the mountain tops. After nightfall, the mountains and forests become a paradise for ferocious birds and beasts, and even more terrifying things.
"Drill another hundred feet, and if there is no big discovery, we will stop work today, reorganize the camp, build fences, set up trenches, ambushes, and arrange formations to restrict... In the mountains and forests, you must be careful, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful!"
The busy craftsmen and handymen all responded.
Drilling continued on more than a dozen high towers, and some handymen walked to the camp. With the help of the Ren family's servants, slaves, and private military guards, they began to cut down trees, build the camp, and arrange various safety and defense measures.
Wu Tie took out a piece of white flour cake, and then took out a small earthen jar, took some wild honey from it, and carefully spread it on the white flour cake. Wu Tie took out a bottle of fruit wine and drank some wine. , while happily eating the sweet and delicious noodles.
'Shua'.
There was an additional person on a rock that protruded more than a foot wide next to Wu Tie.
He was also dressed in coarse cloth, with a hatchet hanging on his waist. His hair was messy, and it was covered with various small branches and leaves. At first glance, he looked like a normal woodcutter.
It's just the boots on this guy's feet... Wu Tie glanced at this guy's feet. They were a pair of dragon leather boots with extremely gorgeous workmanship. They should have exceeded the category of yuan soldiers and reached the level of spiritual soldiers.
A faint spiritual light flickered, and the dragon leather boots were firmly attached to the rocks. The man squatted on the rocks, as if he was connected with the rocks.
"Brother, tell me, what are they doing?" The middle-aged man who suddenly appeared next to Wu Tie asked Wu Tie with a smile.
"You're very sharp. Are you not from Flower Insect City?" Wu Tie did not answer this guy's question, but looked him up and down.
"Uh, brother, you have good eyesight..." The middle-aged man laughed. He looked at Wu Tie and said solemnly: "Let me guess, are you from the Lord's Mansion of Hua Chong City, or are you from the Shenwu Army? Or, Forbidden Demon Palace? Of course, it could also be spies from other companies besides the Ren family?"
"What about you?" Wu Tiesan swallowed the white flour cake coated with honey in two mouthfuls, drank the fruit wine in the bottle in one mouthful, and smashed the clay wine bottle to pieces on the cliff with his backhand.
"Who are you? The one who attacked Hua Xinxin in Hua Chong City couldn't be you, right?" Wu Tie looked the middle-aged man up and down: "Your cultivation level is very good. With your cultivation level at the Life Pond Realm, you are qualified to attack Hua Xinxin." !”
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head: "Brother, you are joking, Mr. Xin... How dare I offend? To be honest, I am a member of Mr. Xin's second brother Hua Tianluo. This time the Hua family sent a total of twenty-four Among the survey teams, Mr. Xin’s team is the largest and has the most people. The Second Young Master sent us to follow Mr. Xin all the way, which is also a kindness. "
"The strife and fighting among big families will kill people." Wu Tie said to the middle-aged man very rudely: "Especially, the Ninth Manager next to Hua Xinxin was killed. This matter... everyone is suspected, especially Your second son is the most suspect."
Wu Tie sneered and told you, the second young master, to mess around.
Send his cronies to follow Hua Xinxin secretly.
Do you really think you can hide this from those old guys in the Hua family
It's okay if nothing happens to Hua Xinxin, but if something happens, the first unlucky ones will be Zhao Tao and his group. But now, it was clear that something was wrong with Hua Xinxin.
The most cherished treasure of the ancestors of the Hua family has obviously fallen into the control of the Ren family. There are more than a dozen clan girls who are obsessed with Hua Xin, haha... If the ancestors of the Hua family insist on saying that the second young master Hua colluded with the Ren family, it is not unreasonable!
"If the Hua family pursues this matter, you people sent by Hua Tianluo will be the most suspicious! When the time comes, will you be thrown out and take the blame?" Wu Tie smiled happily: "I can foresee you. The unlucky look of being beheaded by the big bosses of the Hua family... So, don’t provoke me, I’m afraid of death, afraid of being ordered to be killed by the big bosses of the Hua family.”
The middle-aged man's face was a little distorted.
He smiled bitterly and handed a small animal skin bag to Wu Tie: "Captain Huo..."
Wu Tie's smile faded: "Do you know me? What is this? Bribery? What do you want me to do... to help you?"
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Zhao Tao is now a steward next to the Second Young Master. He also has a bit of face in front of the Second Young Master."
"Young Master Xin doesn't feel it himself, but we all know that he seems to have fallen into a trap." Zhao Tao said in a deep voice: "Inside, there is a six-refined spirit sword, a meager thing, just a little bit of your heart... Please Huo Captain, help us."
Six-refined spirit knife
Yuan soldiers are divided into nine levels, and above the strongest first-level Yuan soldiers are spiritual soldiers.
Like spiritual pills and elixirs, spiritual weapons are divided into four levels: ordinary, third level, sixth level, and ninth level.
An eighth-grade captain of the Shenwu Army like Huo Xiong is only issued ordinary spiritual soldiers, who cannot even reach the level of the third level. Sixth level spiritual weapons versus ordinary spiritual weapons are like fine steel swords versus wooden swords and wooden knives. They absolutely have an overwhelming advantage.
The Sixth Spiritual Sword's attraction to 'Huo Xiong' can be said to be 'extremely great'.
"How can I help you?" Wu Tie grabbed the animal skin bag without ceremony.
Be it the Tower of Rebirth, the White Tiger Split, or even the Lost Soul Scattering Banner and Beidou Soul Killing Sword made by Wu Tie himself, these treasures are all hidden from the light of day.
The saber he wears now is only a standard spiritual weapon issued by the Shenwu Army, and it is also of poor quality among ordinary spiritual soldiers. A six-refined spirit sword can definitely greatly increase Wu Tie's current lethality.
Wu Tie would not dislike the good things delivered to his door.
"You are a local snake..." Zhao Tao smiled brightly: "Nothing else, just please help us... One is to protect Xin Shao's safety, and the other is to find the real person behind Xin Shao."
"We, the second young master, just want to keep abreast of Xin Shao's survey progress, and want to know whether Xin Shao has really found the rare mineral deposits that the clan needs here... There is no other meaning."
"So... we, the people around the Second Young Master, have to protect the absolute safety of the Second Young Master."
Zhao Tao smiled bitterly, and the bitterness on his face almost turned into coptis and flowed out.
Wu Tie looked at Zhao Tao and was silent for a while.
He took out a six-foot-four-inch-long two-handed Miao knife from the animal skin bag. It had a hint of blue all over its body. The blade was extremely thin and almost translucent. The lines of the two-handed Miao knife were beautiful and smooth, with patches of flowing cloud patterns all over its body. , if you look carefully, all the flowing cloud patterns are condensed with extremely fine runes and Dao patterns.
Wu Tie breathed hot air on the blade, and with a "chichi" sound, very fine ice slag condensed on the blade. Then these ice slag could not hang on the blade at all, and all went downwards along the extremely smooth blade. slide.
It can be seen that if this knife is used to kill someone, it will definitely not leave any trace of blood.
"Good knife... so, very good." Wu Tie threw the animal skin bag with an internal space of about ten feet back to Zhao Tao.
The Jin Kingdom has strict rules and regulations, and every space treasure is extremely precious. This small animal skin bag is probably the only space treasure Zhao Tao has on his body. The spirit sword can be accepted, but the animal skin bag must still be returned to Zhao Tao.
Hanging the spirit knife on his waist, Wu Tie said calmly: "How many of you are there? Well, this has nothing to do with me... But you want to protect Xin Shao's safety, so go kill those guys."
Wu Tie pointed towards the forest more than ten miles away and quickly pointed out the hiding locations of several people.
"Those guys, I remembered them in Hua Xin Xin a few days ago... The first one to attack Hua Xin Xin was their accomplice."
"Whether it's a warning or a warning, I think it's a good thing to kill them first."
Zhao Tao's eyes narrowed, like a piercing chill flashing through the eyes of an eagle.
Just as Wu Tie was about to speak, a low roar suddenly came from beneath a tall tower in the distance.
Just now, Wu Tie discovered that under the high tower, there was a large vortex of energy. At this moment, the drill bit had already hit the vortex.
A low roar rose into the sky, and a small dragon-shaped mist as thick as a thumb sprayed out of the ground along the drill pipe.
"We hit the ground veins... Hey, the color is green and white. There must be rare mineral veins below."
The old master craftsman, who looked like a pillar of iron, jumped up suddenly and rushed to the high tower with several master craftsman apprentices.
