The drilling towers were shaking.
More than a hundred feet high, with a pure metal structure and a base that is more than twenty feet long and wide, the tower is filled with light. Countless runes are sprayed out from the thick metal pillars, each one like a relief, emitting a dazzling light.
Several master craftsmen from the Hua family were busy moving in pieces of huge crystals and throwing them into the formation base of the tower.
There are also more than a dozen Huajia guard leaders with advanced cultivation. They sit cross-legged on futons specially set up on the tower, pouring all their energy into the tower to maintain the full operation of the tower.
The black and red earth energy roared up and turned into two long dragons, one black and one red, entangled with each other and constantly attacking the tower.
Lu Yan's body was trembling slightly. He used all his strength to drive the tower to suppress the earth energy. He had no mood or energy to answer Wu Tie's questions.
Wu Tie stopped saying anything. He clasped his hands in front of his chest and stood on the edge of the tower. He bent down, stretched his head, and stretched his neck to stare at the thumb-wide cracks beneath the drill pipe that were rushed out by the earth's air.
The ground was shaking slightly.
The earth veins drilled this time are obviously very impressive, and the impact of the earth energy is ridiculously strong.
The mist rose from the ground, and Ren Shanwen and a group of Ren family elders walked out of the mist.
Seeing that Wu Tie felt it earlier than them, the faces of Ren Shanwen and others suddenly twitched. Ren Shanwen shouted at Wu Tie rudely: "Colonel Huo, what are you doing here? Could it be that you want to spy on the Hua family's secret forging skills?"
"I am the captain of the Shenwu Military Academy. I can enter the city lord's palace; I can enter the county governor's palace; I can also enter the state capital... In the Kingdom of Jin, unless it is a place where the military prohibits trespassing, I can go .”
Wu Tie also said rudely: "Unless you come up with a military ban on the Hua family's survey land, can you control what I want to do?"
Ren Shanwen's face froze slightly.
Ren Duxing suddenly took a step forward, raised his hand fiercely, and put a finger on Wu Tie's nose.
Wu Tie immediately raised his hand, grabbed Ren Duxing's finger, broke his finger off with a 'click', and then kicked Ren Duxing in the abdomen, kicking him hundreds of feet away.
"Young Master Ren, you have forgotten again that I am an official and you are a citizen..." Wu Tie gritted his teeth and sneered: "Believe it or not, I will send a letter to the Shenwu Army now, saying that you attacked and killed the captain of the Shenwu Army. rebellion?"
Ren Shanwen took a step sideways, blocking Wu Tie's view of Ren Duxing.
"Captain Huo." Ren Shanwen sighed softly: "Young man, you are very angry. I would like to ask Captain Huo to spare the trip alone this time for the sake of all of us being locals."
With his eyelids drooping and his head slightly lowered, Ren Shanwen lowered his eyebrows and said submissively: "Please understand that Captain Huo understands that this incident is an excellent opportunity for our Ren family to make a good relationship with the Hua family. Therefore, our Ren family also I tried my best and didn’t want to see any mistakes.”
"Walking alone was impatient and offended. Afterwards... I, the Ren family, must have a heartfelt gift." Ren Shanwen humbly bowed to Wu Tie with fists, then shouted a few times and left quickly with all the Ren family members. Got here.
Wu Tie frowned, glanced in the direction Ren Shanwen and others left, and shook his head slightly.
"Master Lu, what kind of mineral vein is down here?" Wu Tie looked at Lu Yan with a bright smile.
"Perhaps... Yin-Yang Whirlpool Iron..." Lu Yan struggled to support the tower, looked at Wu Tie who kept asking him, and reluctantly squeezed out a few words from his mouth: "One kind, excellent, extremely precious The materials... In the new forging secret technique that I have developed this time, the yin and yang swirling light iron is one of the necessary main materials."
"So that's it. Congratulations to Master Lu, congratulations to Master Lu." Wu Tie looked at the bottom of the drill pipe of the high tower and suddenly laughed: "Why suppress this earth energy? If you let it drain out, wouldn't it be enough? Can you open the mine and go down to mine?”
Lu Yan took a hard breath and stared at Wu Tie with a look that looked like a fool: "The original vein of Yin Yang Xuanguang Iron is a fluid. Once it encounters the wind, it will turn into Yin and Yang and drift away. Only It must be suppressed using a secret method, allowing it to gradually cool and thicken in the wind, and turn into mercury before it can be mined... "
Lu Yan looked at Wu Tie with twinkling eyes: "Our drilling here may have only hit a small branch of this vein, so the pressure below will not be large... However, we must also deploy a suppression tower as soon as possible. Formation, suppress it and let the wind from the sky slowly penetrate into the veins."
Large groups of flower craftsmen have already arrived.
Many handymen began to follow the craftsmen's instructions to dig trenches on the side, calcine various metal blocks, turn them into alloy juice, and then cast them in the trenches.
They are all people with good cultivation, and the various mana furnaces are really powerful. In just half an hour, a huge formation with a diameter of 360 feet was arranged around the drilling tower.
Pieces of crystals the size of human heads were suspended above the formation base. The large formation and the drilling tower were connected as one. A strong light erupted from the tower, covering the drilling hole below.
The black and red anger was completely suppressed, and Lu Yan and several master craftsmen relaxed and laughed at the same time.
"Next, wait." Lu Yan smiled and said to Wu Tie: "Captain Huo, it will take about half a month to wait for the outside wind to penetrate into the veins and make the veins cool and sticky before mining can begin. "
"There is nothing to see here. Go to other places and dig a few more exploration wells. Maybe there will be something good." Lu Yan smiled brightly: "If Captain Huo is interested in drilling and surveying, why not go together? Take a look? I can explain the secrets to Colonel Huo."
"Oh, no, no, I'd better take a look here." Wu Tie rejected Lu Yan's proposal: "Yin Yang Whirlpool Iron, this kind of treasure, I have never heard of it... Haha, let me take a look, and then Look. Well, well, what if this tower collapses?"
Lu Yan's expression became extremely strange: "This tower has been integrated with the suppression formation and cannot collapse."
Wu Tie smiled and looked at Lu Yan: "I mean... what if?"
Lu Yan stared at Wu Tie without saying a word. After a long, long time, Lu Yan said quietly: "Huo Xiaowei, the Ren family is a private household, and I can't help you... My Hua family is a serious business. It is not difficult for a noble and wealthy family to crush a small captain to death."
"You are not a Hua family member." Wu Tie stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of Lu Yan, whose body was almost three times as wide as him: "Master Lu said this to threaten me... I am very curious, what is it worth?" Want you to threaten me?"
Lu Yan's face turned serious.
Several of his disciples and burly master craftsmen gathered around him silently.
A little further away, a group of guards from the Hua family looked here inexplicably.
However, these guards soon came to their senses. This was obviously a conflict between Lu Yan and Wu Tie... Wu Tie was an outsider, and Lu Yan was a master craftsman hired by the Hua family with a high salary. There was no doubt that they wanted to help Lu Yan. .
Nearly a hundred Huajia guards surrounded him at the same time.
A guard leader said solemnly: "Captain Huo, my brother also serves in the Shenwu Army... So, if you don't cause trouble for my Hua family, we won't hurt you."
Just as Wu Tie was about to speak, there was sudden noise in the distance.
A ray of water quickly passed over the treetops. A guard of the Ren family fell from the treetops and exclaimed loudly: "Colonel Huo Xiong, your men were attacked by poisonous pythons that cultivated the climate in the mountains and forests. Now, They were all poisoned..."
The guard quickly came to Wu Tie, looked at Wu Tie, and said quickly: "The thirty divine warriors and two hundred city defense troops you left in the camp over there have all fallen..."
Wu Tie was stunned and said angrily: "I asked them not to leave the camp. Why were they injured by the poisonous python?"
The guard spread his hands and sighed: "The poisonous python attacked the camp... Young Master Huaxinxinhua was almost injured by the poisonous python. Captain Huo Xiong's men were worthy of being good men from Kuangjing. They rushed forward. To deal with that poisonous python, they all fell."
The guard said solemnly: "Now, the poisonous python is still wreaking havoc in the camp..."
Wu Tie stared at the guard, staring at him for a long time. Then he stamped his feet, and a blast rushed out from under his feet, holding him up into the air, turning into a strong wind and flying towards the camp. .
'Huo Xiong' practices the secret third-turn Yuan Gong of the Shenwu Army. He specializes in physical training and magic power. He focuses on close combat and despises magical powers. Therefore, 'Huo Xiong's flying speed is very average. It takes a quarter of an hour. With Kung Fu, he can probably fly five to six hundred miles.
This sub-camp is a thousand miles away from the main camp. According to 'Huo Xiong's' speed, it will be two thousand miles back and forth. In addition to dealing with the injured soldiers at the main camp, he will not be able to return in three to five hours.
"Follow him, keep an eye on him... keep an eye on her, don't slack off at all." Lu Yan said in a deep voice: "Others, follow the plan."
"Here the Acquired Heaven, Earth, Lung, Water, Fire, Juesha... must be nearby, right here." Lu Yan's body trembled slightly: "The difference will not exceed a hundred miles, it is within this hundred miles."
"Don't let that Huo Xiong cause trouble... Quick, quick, quick!"
Huajia's survey team brought thousands of heavy-duty trailers, which are hundreds of drilling towers.
During the previous drilling and surveying, Lu Yan only asked his craftsmen to use half of the towers. Now he gave an order and the remaining dozens of towers were quickly built by his craftsmen. With the tower as the center, drilling began rapidly within a hundred miles of the surrounding area.
Lines of black and red earth energy continued to spurt out, and were quickly suppressed by the tower.
Lu Yan quickly issued the order. At the same time, he and several disciples took out strange-looking magic weapons and began to survey along the earth veins.
Ren Shanwen, Ren Duxing and other members of the Ren family, under the command of a disciple of Lu Yan, dug large pits in the surrounding mountains and forests, filled them with array devices, and began to set up a large array covering an area of hundreds of miles.
The Ren family members mobilized tens of thousands of people, and this formation seemed to have gone through countless drills.
In just half an hour, the formation was completed.
The nine elders of the Ren family with the strongest cultivation were sitting at the core of the formation. Although the formation was completed, it was not functioning, so there was no abnormal movement or phenomenon.
After the formation was completed, under Lu Yan's order, a large group of Hua family guards formed a formation to guard the sub-camp, while the Ren family guards entered the forest in twos and threes and quickly searched around, preparing to strangle all suspicious people.
Zhao Tong and Zhao Tung, who were hiding in the mountains and forests and had secretly met with Wu Tie from time to time in the past few days, were found immediately. At first, they were chased by more than a dozen Ren family guards, and then quickly turned into more than two hundred. The guards, led by seven Tizojing warriors, surrounded and beat him violently.
Zhao Tung and Zhao Tong were still recovering from their injuries in the past few days, and they were beaten until they vomited blood. They cursed and used secret techniques to break out of the encirclement, and fled in embarrassment toward the depths of the unfamiliar mountains, chased by the Ren family's guards.
Wu Tie rushed more than a hundred miles toward the camp where Hua Xinxin was, and then he suddenly stopped.
The Ren family guard following him who was delivering the message stopped his escape in surprise: "Colonel Huo Xiong, why did you... stop?"
Wu Tie looked at the guard with a half-smile, "Trying the tiger away from the mountain? This strategy... is too crude."
Shaking his head, Wu Tie said in a deep voice: "I don't think the Ren family dares to kill those fellow members of the Shenwu Army, right? At least, you don't dare to kill them until you get enough benefits."
"So, at most they had a near miss." Wu Tie said with a smile: "I am still interested in what Lu Yan is looking for."
Wu Tie narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Is there anything that requires extensive surveying of the earth's veins and drilling thousands of feet into the ground to find it?"
"Is there anything worth spending so much effort on?"
"Also, there are so many craftsmen and servants..."
"I haven't heard of any caves or blessed places around Flower Insect City, nor any genius treasures, nor any ancient residences. What on earth are you looking for?"
Wu Tie looked at the Ren family guard whose expression changed greatly and said softly: "Li Gongcao has not been idle these days. He checked the local chronicles and asked some old people in Hua Chong City. Only then did he know that three hundred years ago, Something happened to the Ren family, and the main line of the direct line was slaughtered overnight, and a collateral line took its place."
"Three hundred years, if we say that this drama of the sideline's seizing the throne was prepared for today... Three hundred years, what is worth preparing for for three hundred years?"
In the distant mountains and forests, more than a dozen streaks of water mixed with three streaks of black smoke flew into the sky and quickly flew towards Wu Tie.
The three streaks of black smoke were obviously more than ten times faster than the dozen streaks of water, and they flew in front of Wu Tie almost in a snap. The black smoke cleared up, revealing three old men with skinny faces and wearing black gowns.
"Although I have been prepared to be discovered, I have been pestered by you like a fly for so many days... I have thought countless times that I have to tear you into pieces bit by bit." An old man in black clothes Staring at Wu Tie, he sneered and said, "You should actually go back to the camp. If you go back obediently and treat your subordinates, we won't come out to kill you."
"I'm curious, what are you looking for?" Wu Tie stared at the old man in black: "It takes so much effort... Even the manpower shortage in the Forbidden Demon Palace is a good thing you did, right?"
The old man in black pondered for a moment, then he nodded with a smile: "Anyway, since we take action, you are dead. So, I might as well tell you that what we are looking for is a handle that our ancestors accidentally discovered, brewed by heaven and earth... Innate Lingbao."/11_11853/
