Zhen Xiuzhu said: "The ones that have been painted are currently surveyed, and there are still a lot of unknown areas. I hope you can help me in the next step."
Kai Shui said: "It's easy to say, it's just that this survey work can be done by ordinary people? The parts that have been surveyed and mapped on the map are also drawn by others."
Zhen Xiuzhu stroked his beard slowly, and said with a smile: "Exactly. But those mines have been closed for a long time, the air inside is blocked, and there are even some poisonous gases. It is extremely dangerous for ordinary people to go down, but for everyone That said, it’s a piece of cake.”
Meng Rui looked at the blueprint for a while, and suddenly said: "Is it just some ordinary poison and gas?"
Zhen Xiuzhu said: "Of course, what else is there?"
Meng Rui kept silent and continued to stare at the blueprint, but Yang Qingxuan keenly noticed that his eyes were flickering with a solemn look.
He couldn't help but pay attention to Meng Rui.
Kai Shui said: "How much is left undrawn? How long will it take to finish drawing these?"
Zhen Xiuzhu drew a circle on the blueprint with his hands, and gestured: "The core area is only missing. If it is fast, it will take about half a month. If it is slow, one month will be enough."
Kai Shui nodded and said, "From half a month to January, earning 300 credits is not bad."
Zhen Xiuzhu smiled and said: "Hehe, the credits should be given. Besides, the old man has gifts to give." On his thumb is a big dark green wrench, which is the storage element. Under the flashing, a silver plate He held it in his hand, with ten bags on it, and distributed it to everyone with a smile.
Yang Qingxuan held it in his hand, the bag was heavy, and it seemed to be gold and silver inside.
Suddenly Li Zhiye yelled excitedly, "Lingshi!"
"What?"
Immediately caused a commotion, everyone hurriedly opened the bag, and sure enough, there were five white stones inside, which were square in shape and about the size of a baby's fist, and they couldn't help being extremely excited.
The moment Yang Qingxuan opened the bag, he felt the aura rushing towards his face, and he was also surprised.
I searched for information about "spiritual stones" in my mind, and I know that it is a precious ore to assist cultivation, and it is also a "hard currency" in the warrior world, which is equivalent to the "gold, silver and copper coins" in the mortal world, and the "gold, silver and copper coins" in the Tiancong Academy. Credits are very precious.
Kai Shui laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Mr. Zhen is too polite." He glanced at other people's bags intentionally or unintentionally.
Especially those few students whose Qi and Martial Realm had reached perfection, their faces were full of vigilance.
Yang Qingxuan also noticed Kai Shui's gaze, smiled faintly, put away the bag, and sat expressionlessly.
Zhen Xiuzhu said with a smile: "Well, this is what it should be. This old man is in the ore business, and it is not surprising that he has some spiritual stones. This is only half of the reward. After everyone draws the map, I will give it to everyone. Five dollars."
Kai Shui said happily: "Thank you, thank you. Even if you don't have the 300 credits for this mission, these ten spirit stones are enough."
The rest of the students also had happy faces and were very grateful.
Next, chatting along the way, Zhen Xiuzhu traveled all over the world and visited many places. The experience is far better than these students, and everyone talks about world affairs with great interest.
Yang Qingxuan also learned a lot, and gained a better understanding of the world.
Three days later, the carriage entered the Hengduan Mountains, and it took another two or three days to arrive at the mining area.
It took five or six days just to hurry, but everyone took the spirit stones, so it was hard to say anything.
Through the window in the carriage, Yang Qingxuan observed the topography of the Hengduan Mountains. There are green mountains and green waters, and there are precipices and natural dangers everywhere. The surrounding mountains piled up to the depths of the clouds, as majestic as the ridge of a dragon.
After arriving at the mining area, there were no tall trees in a radius of more than ten miles, but only low shrubs. There were gravels everywhere on the road, most of them were old, and some were newly dug out.
Zhen Xiuzhu said "Here we are", and everyone filed down from the car. They saw that the mining area was surrounded by mountains and mountains. It is like a honeycomb, and there is a huge deep well in the middle.
Yang Qingxuan looked around, always feeling that something was wrong, as if there was a shadow pressing on his heart, but he couldn't say why.
Suddenly several crows "quack" flew up, startling everyone.
Yang Qingxuan's face changed slightly, and then he realized that something was wrong, this mining area is too quiet!
Surrounded by mountains on all sides, it seems like a dead land!
He looked at Meng Rui, only to see his face was pale, as if he knew something.
Yang Qingxuan immediately leaned over and lightly touched his arm, which startled Meng Rui. Meng Rui rolled his eyes and glared angrily, as if he was asking him what he was doing.
Yang Qingxuan glanced at him with complicated eyes, and said in a low voice: "I always feel that something is wrong here, do you also notice something?"
Meng Rui's complexion changed drastically, and he looked at Yang Qingxuan in shock, but the ripples in his eyes quickly calmed down, and he also said via voice transmission: "This place is called 'Four Parts and Four Absolutes' in Feng Shui, and it is a place of great danger."
Yang Qingxuan asked: "What is 'Four Lies and Four Absolutes' is a bit unclear."
Meng Rui was stunned for a moment, and said, "What does it mean to be unaware?"
Yang Qingxuan said: "I don't understand, but I feel very powerful."
Meng Rui said: "That's how it is. The so-called 'four separations and four absolutes' is a very strange terrain. There are no four directions, no east, west, north, south, and no seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. It's like an isolated dead land."
Yang Qingxuan felt something bad in his heart, and said, "Will that be dangerous?"
Meng Rui nodded and said: "Of course it's extremely dangerous, but..." He turned around a bit, and then hesitated to speak.
Yang Qingxuan hurriedly said: "Since it's dangerous, we should help each other in the same boat. We can say anything and deal with it together."
A strange look flashed in Meng Rui's eyes, and he said, "I'm not sure for now, I'll talk about it later when I get out of the mine." After speaking, he walked away from Yang Qingxuan and walked towards the crowd.
Yang Qingxuan wanted to ask something, but seeing that he was unwilling to answer, he walked into the crowd again. I was afraid that someone would find out if I transmitted my voice, so I had no choice but to give up and follow.
Zhen Xiuzhu and the coachman brought everyone to the huge mine, pointed inside and said, "This is the entrance."
Everyone looked inside and saw that under the light of the wall lamp, the depth was still bottomless and gloomy, and they couldn't help feeling a little scared.
But when he thought that this was a mine thousands of years ago, and the 300 credits, and the ten spirit stones, he became curious and excited, and felt relieved.
Meng Rui suddenly asked, "Why is there no one here?"
Zhen Xiuzhu smiled and said: "I'm not sure if this mine can be mined yet, why send someone here? This is a royal forbidden mountain, and outsiders can't come in at will. The most important thing right now is to draw the passages in this mine accurately. map."
