After Wang Changsheng returned to the town, he asked Wang Qingshan to gather the tribesmen working in the quarry on the grounds that they might be infected with corpse poison. They were strictly prohibited from contact with the outside world, and their food and clothing were delivered by dedicated personnel.
Wang Qingshan naturally complied and gathered the clan members working in the quarry into a large courtyard and sent someone to deliver food to them.
According to Wang Qiucai's report, the tribesmen in the quarry did not hide the black gold ore. It's not that they didn't want to, but they really couldn't get it. They burned it with fire for a day and couldn't get a piece of black gold ore with a knife, and they didn't know that Wang Youliang How did you get a piece of black gold ore
As the sun set over the western mountains, the afterglow of the sunset poured over Qingshi Town. Fifteen men in casual clothes rode fast horses and arrived at Qingshi Town.
There were many people with foreign surnames in Qingshi Town. In order not to attract attention, after arriving in Ping'an County, Wang Changge and his party switched to horseback riding and rushed to Qingshi Town.
The leader is Wang Changsheng's seventh uncle Wang Mingzhong. Wang Mingzhong is thirty-two years old this year and has reached the eighth level of Qi refining. He has great hope of reaching the foundation building stage.
Except for Wang Changge, the remaining thirteen men are all from the Qing generation.
Wang Changsheng briefly told Wang Mingzhong how he discovered the black gold vein. Of course, he did not tell anyone about the fact that he chopped off a piece of black gold vein.
After listening to Wang Changsheng's statement, Wang Mingzhong praised: "Well done, Changsheng, you have made a great contribution this time. Let's go, take us to the quarry, Changge, Qingxuan, give the Wangyou Water to the quarry." The clansmen surrender and let them forget what happened today.”
Forgetting Dust Water is a first-level spiritual water. After taking this water, you will forget what happened within a day without any sequelae.
Wang Changge agreed and left as ordered.
When the group of people arrived at the quarry, it was already dark.
The strange thing is that the originally dark stone wall has disappeared, and the black gold veins seem to have never appeared.
As soon as they approached the quarry, Wang Yaojing walked out of the cave not far away.
"Fifth uncle, on the order of third brother, I brought fourteen young men and mining tools. Where is the black gold vein? Let's start mining now!" Wang Mingzhong asked impatiently.
Upon learning that a black gold vein had been discovered in Qingshi Town, Wang Mingzhong hurried over with his people.
Wang Yaojing frowned and said, "Didn't you bring the formation? Mining at night is fine. If you mine during the day, it will be easily discovered by other immortal cultivators."
"I brought with me a set of equipment for setting up the first-level mid-level formation, the Liangyi Spirit Hiding Formation. This is the best hiding formation flag in our clan. It should not be discovered below the foundation building stage."
Arrays can be arranged with raw materials or array equipment. Array masters are the most precious talents in the world of immortality. The Wang family cannot make ends meet, so there are no spare resources to train array masters.
Array equipment is very expensive. A set of first-level low-grade formation equipment starts with 1,000 spirit stones. This set of Liangyi Spirit Hiding Array was bought from the auction by the Wang family for 3,500 spirit stones. , has been stored in the warehouse for a hundred years, with little opportunity to use it, but it comes in handy now.
Wang Mingzhong took out more than a dozen white formation flags. Each formation flag was only about a foot long. The flags were engraved with dense formation patterns, and the aura was bright.
"First lay down the formation, then explore the size of the black gold mine, and then start planned mining. I will remove the phantom talisman first."
The phantom talisman is a first-level low-level illusion talisman. This talisman has the effect of illusory scenery. It has no problem against the naked eyes of mortals. A cultivator can break it with a basic low-level spell called Sky Eye.
Wang Yaojing made a seal with one hand, and a burst of yellow light lit up on the stone wall. After a blur, a yellow talisman about a foot long fell off the stone wall, revealing the dark stone wall, with a faint golden light shooting out, which was extremely conspicuous.
"Pfft!"
With a soft sound, the yellow talisman ignited without wind and burned to ashes.
"Yes, Fifth Uncle."
Wang Mingzhong walked quickly to the black stone wall. With a flick of his wrist, the eighteen-pole formation flag in his hand flew out, and the formation patterns lit up on the flag.
"go."
Wang Mingzhong stretched out his hand and tapped lightly against the black stone wall. The eighteen-pole array flags turned around and turned into eighteen dazzling spiritual lights, which disappeared near the stone wall.
The next moment, the stone wall blurred and disappeared.
"Qinglin, Qinglei, you go into the cave to explore and take a look at the size of the mine first. Let me remind you first that this black gold mine belongs to the family. If you do good work, the family will reward you for your merits. Who dares to hide black gold secretly? If the ore is discovered by me, I will punish you severely." Wang Mingzhong said solemnly.
"Yes, seventh uncle."
The twelve tribesmen agreed in unison and walked into the cave one after another.
After Wang Changsheng heard this, his heart trembled. He had to get rid of the black gold ore as soon as possible.
"Chang Sheng, come here and see what good things Uncle Qi brought you. I forgot to give them to you just now." Wang Mingzhong waved to Wang Changsheng and said with a smile.
Wang Changsheng responded and walked over quickly.
He had a guilty conscience and did not dare to look directly at Wang Mingzhong.
Wang Mingzhong took out three light blue peaches from his storage bag, handed them to Wang Changsheng, and said with a smile: "These three green peaches were just picked this year. They have been hard on you for the past three years, so take them and eat them! I remember In previous years, every time when the green silk peaches were about to mature, you would run to Uncle Qi's residence. Without saying anything, you would just stand under the peach tree and look eagerly at the green peaches on the tree. Even if Third Sister-in-law came to pull you away, you wouldn't go back. , I will pick you a green silk peach before you are willing to go back."
"Haha, he does this kind of thing a lot." Wang Yaojing laughed and joked.
The Green Silk Peach is a first-class low-grade spiritual fruit that ripens once a year. Before Wang Changsheng left Qinglian Mountain, every time the Seventh Uncle's Green Silk Peach ripened, he and his younger brothers and sisters would go to Wang Mingzhong's house to help until the Seventh Aunt gave it to everyone. Only a green silk peach will leave.
Recalling the past, Wang Changsheng was very moved and felt extremely ashamed that he had secretly hidden the black gold ore.
He wanted to take out the black gold ore, but he was worried that he would be scolded by his seventh uncle and fifth uncle.
His face seemed calm, but there was a constant battle between heaven and man in his heart.
"What? Too few? Just these three. The other green peaches are all given to Changming Changchen." Wang Mingzhong saw Wang Changsheng stunned and said with a chuckle.
After hearing this, Wang Changsheng hesitated even more.
"Chang Sheng, you were the first to discover the black gold veins. Did you secretly mine a few pieces?"
Wang Mingzhong asked casually.
"My nephew mined a piece."
Wang Changsheng hesitated again and again, and then took out the black gold ore, feeling much relieved.
Wang Mingzhong and Wang Yaojing didn't find it strange, nor did they blame them.
Wang Mingzhong accepted two pieces of black gold ore, stuffed three green peaches into Wang Changsheng's hand, patted Wang Changsheng's shoulder, and sighed: "Changsheng, you have suffered in the past three years, I give you this bottle of Qi Refining Pill, This is a reward for handing over the black gold ore."
He took out a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Wang Changsheng.
"Thank you, fifth uncle. It's the right thing to do for the family." Wang Changsheng thanked him and put away the elixir.
