Qijiaojing, night.
In the remote towns on the border, there are probably no night scenes to see. But at this time, the sky is like ink, and when you look up, you can see the wilderness around, surrounded by the only brightly lit place, which has a primitive and rough tension.
It is windy here, and the houses are also very distinctive. The front is straight and the back is slanted. The weird curvature is like a cut baguette.
The Wu and Jiang families are both powerful families in the western frontier, and they fought with each other. It is certainly not easy to join forces today. They didn't issue invitations, they just stamped two people at the door to see if your cultivation level is high or low.
Long Qiu took Jin Chan through an alley, and saw the conspicuous building next to the main road—this was the only hotel in the town with more than five floors.
The two large iron gates were open, and people flowed in and out, and the courtyard was bustling. They came closer, but before they could enter, Long Qiu paused suddenly and looked at the person coming from the opposite side.
They were two ordinary men, but she nodded slightly, and the other party returned their respect.
"Sister, what's the matter?" Jin Chan was a little puzzled because she didn't have enough realm.
"Zhang Shouyang and Bai Yunsheng." Long Qiu said softly.
"Oh? The Taoist Academy attaches great importance to it, and even sent Zhang Shouyang."
The Three Immortals of Qiyun are well known to the whole world, Jin Chan immediately took a high look, but at this moment, he saw one of them striding forward, whispered a few secret words to Long Qiu, and wiped himself back.
"He is in a bottleneck and wants to fight me."
"You agreed?"
"Bai Yunsheng is a rare sword cultivator in the world. Although my cultivation base is high, I am still inferior in terms of swordsmanship alone. Why shouldn't I be beautiful as an adult?"
Long Qiu touched Jin Chan's head, let out a little breath, and easily entered the hotel compound.
There were seven or eight hundred guests tonight, and they sat on a whole floor, famous and unknown, almost all of them came. She glanced around, but found nothing strange, it seemed that the demon cultivator hadn't participated yet.
After everyone waited for a short time, the party officially began.
On the high platform in front, representatives from Wu and Jiang's families said loudly: "Thank you for coming, the succulent plants are shining brightly, let's not talk nonsense, let's go straight to the point. First of all, answer a doubt, yes, Huozhou is discovered Two new mines. There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that its energy is 10, but let's explain first, 10 is just a conservative estimate!"
boom!
This party was interesting, and there was a sudden flash when it came up, which caused the audience to exclaim. If it reaches 10, it can be called a magic weapon. If it exceeds 10, it is almost out of the category of magic weapon and can be promoted to magic weapon.
According to the standards of Fenghuang Mountain and the Taoist Temple, the magic weapon has no spirituality, but the magic weapon has spirituality. This spirituality does not refer to the bloody weapon spirit, but an aura that is of extremely high quality and absorbs the essence of heaven and earth to produce it.
With this aura, whether it is the tempering effect, the degree of connection with the mind, or even the cultivation potential that grows with the growth of the monks, it is far superior to the magic weapon.
"Some people may wonder, why did our two families release the news? The reason is very simple. First, this new mine is too eye-catching. It can be called a treasure of heaven and earth. I am afraid that none of the people here can swallow it alone. Second, what , After we got the clues, we lost a lot of manpower, just to find out the ore reserves, and gained very little. Until today, we have only picked up a few fragments, please take a look."
With that said, someone held two things.
One is a transparent container, several pieces of black ice ore are immersed in cold water, and in the middle is a fiery red ore, the size of a child's fist.
The mysterious ice mine is the mineral with the thickest frost energy known so far, but at this moment, there is a whistling sound, and white air is constantly rising. The fifth-grade spiritual mine was unexpectedly melted by the heat emitted by it.
As for the other piece, it is a grayish-white ordinary stone of similar size, covered with fine holes. It was lying in a pile of black soil, seemingly unremarkable, but when it was picked up:
Shhhhhhhhhh
call... call... call...
Like a violent wind blowing into a grotto full of holes, the hall was instantly filled with extremely sharp, ear-piercing sounds like birdsong.
After about a few seconds, the man put down the stone, and the sound stopped.
Before everyone could react from their discomfort, clusters of flames appeared in their eyes. Long Qiu and Zhang Shouyang swept away with their spiritual thoughts and nodded secretly.
nice one! If it is used for refining, one piece counts as one piece, it is definitely the treasure of the town school.
Cultivators pay attention to the clarity of the mind and their own strength, but when they are not so strong that "I am the best in the world, we are all good", an excellent magic weapon is very attractive.
"Everyone knows that Fire Island is the earliest catastrophic area since the recovery of spiritual energy. It has been almost 24 years. But after the environment stabilized, special resources were discovered in various places, but Fire Island has been missing for a long time. Some people say Huozhou rose early and consumed character, so it also cools down early. This is of course a joke... In short, according to our initial detection information, these two kinds of ore reserves are very small and the distribution is too scattered. They will not be buried in the They are all waiting for us to discover them together, but one piece and another are scattered everywhere. This is also the biggest reason why we share news, and the same sentence, relying on the strength of one or two companies, it is simply impossible to eat."
"..."
There was a moment of silence at the bottom, and someone shouted loudly: "Let's just trust you. What do you mean to ask everyone to cooperate? But I dare to ask, how do we allocate so many people?"
"It's easy to say! If you appreciate your face, we will cover all the logistical preparations, and everyone will search together. Whoever finds it will count! If you don't want it, we will buy it at a high price, and you can buy and sell it yourself. How about this method?"
Buzz buzz!
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and most of them were moved.
Obviously, the grade of the ore is too high, it's useless to take it, but it can be sold for money. Masters can practice, but they need human hands to find it.
"I don't believe that the two of them are so generous. It must be the government's idea."
Jin Chan understood it, and said via voice transmission: "The environment of Huozhou is special, non-monk monks are not allowed to enter, and many equipment will fail, so it can only be done by manpower. On the surface, it is generously shared, but in fact, it uses folk monks to open the way, dig out the ore first and then talk about it." .”
He thought he had seen through the essence, and was a little happy, waiting for his sister to praise him. After waiting for a long time without any movement, when he turned his head to look, Long Qiu was so far away that he didn't pay attention at all.
"Sister, what are you thinking?" Jin Chan was depressed.
"Oh, I was just looking forward to the battle with Bai Yunsheng." Long Qiu came back to his senses.
Um
Jin Chan's intuition was wrong, her sister was thinking about other things, but she couldn't ask, so she asked, "Do you want to get the ore?"
"Of course, we go in with the team, and then act alone to find the storage place."
finished
Jin Chan blinked, and with that dark skin and appearance, she had a unique sense of simplicity and joy.
Besides, there was a lot of noise in the venue, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic, and the plan was quickly made. All logistical affairs will be handled by the two, and the official departure will take place five days later.
For a while, Qijiaojing was very lively, and all parties invited friends from the master's school to help out. Thousands of monks gathered in the small place, which was quite like the scene of the gold rush in the past.
…
Seven days later, everyone had already set off.
A man who seemed to be late arrived at this rather deserted town at this time. He didn't rush, and stayed in the town for another night, guessing that the group of people had already entered the Fire Island, so he set off there.
At the same time, there were three more powerful breaths of life, entering from the west of Yunnan, bypassing the urban agglomeration all the way, and going straight to Huozhou.
