Jiang Shanghua sneered, but then said quickly: "It doesn't matter. Compared with the Ghost Hand Master, I have no advantage. Don't mention these things again, okay?"

Xiao Qing gently took Jiang Shanghua's hand and said, "Well, as long as you are the original owner of the island, Xiao Qing is willing to work hard for you. You will be Xiao Qing's husband."

Jiang Shanghua glanced at Xiaoqing. He knew that Xiaoqing meant what he said. She put his hand on her chest, with a confused look in her eyes.

This is a tempting picture that no man can refuse.

Jiang Shanghua swallowed and said, "I'm really not in the mood right now."

But Xiaoqing closed her eyes and said, "If you don't want Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing will feel very uncomfortable." She leaned forward and gently nestled beside Jiang Shanghua.

Jiang Shanghua is a smart man, how can he not understand the relationship between this. If he still rejects Xiaoqing, Gui Meishou will not believe him, and the matter of cultivating the body of an immortal will probably not go as planned.

Xiaoqing's body was soft, and she leaned gently against Jiang Shanghua.

Jiang Shanghua sighed, gritted his teeth, hugged Xiaoqing, turned around and threw himself on the big stone bed...

***

By this time, it was already evening.

The sunset on the cliff island is extremely beautiful. The bright red sunset dyes the sea water red and also falls on the tall mountains.

Ghost Shou and Xiaoqian flew away from the stone gate of Jianfeng Mountain and flew to the coast.

This is the place where Xiao Qing came to check in the morning. However, in the place where it was melted in the morning, the magma has cooled, revealing a 20-foot stretch of jet-black rock. And the new magma continues to melt nearby, rolling out shiny

, even a bit dazzling light.

The ghost hand waved and shot out two dots of light, which hit the black rock with a bang. It made a thunderous echo, which was different from the sound of ordinary rocks.

"Xiao Qing is right, this is not a stone, it is a metal." Xiao Qian said.

The ghostly hand nodded and flew down into the rock pit. He used his kung fu in his hand and slapped it down with his fingers like claws. His fingers were inserted into the black metal, then he tore off a piece and put it into his arms.

He flew close to the burning magma again. The heat wave rolled in and blew his snow-white robe. He was like a bird, floating three feet above the magma.

The temperature in that place was probably hundreds of degrees high, but because he used his skills to mobilize his body-protecting Qi, he was able to withstand such a roasting.

He waved his palm and shot out a beam of light, piercing the burning magma.

The magma splashed a little bit of water and flew into the air. But he struck out with his palm again, hitting the drop of water and flying into the grass on the cliff!

The grass immediately burned into a fire ring about a foot in size.

Xiaoqian flew over and extinguished the flames with a wave of her hand. She leaned over to check and found a small round stone bead on the burnt black soil.

The ghostly hand flew up to the cliff, took the bead, examined it, and said, "This is also metal!"

He wiped the surface of the bead clean, revealing the sparkle. It was indeed a metal bead, not a stone.

"Great, it seems we are one step closer to alchemy!" Xiaoqian said happily.

Ghost Hand looked up at Jianfeng Mountain. In the sky where the sun was gradually dimming, there was still a faint soot floating on the mountain peak, but it was no longer white, but gray-black.

From the color change of the soot, it can also be judged that the nature of magma melting has changed.

"Well, coupled with the input of skill from the warrior formation, the spirit stone can be stimulated to produce greater power, which is more conducive to the production of various metals." Ghost Hand also showed a look of joy.

Xiaoqian followed his gaze and saw a figure flying out of the gate on the mountainside of the peak. This figure seemed to be continuous, and a hundred white fox warriors flew towards them in a column.

These warriors formed a formation near the lava pit. A fifth-level warrior captain shouted to the ghost hand: "Island Master, one hundred warriors are ready."

The ghost finger pointed at the lava pit and said: "Line up the warrior formation and aim at the lava pit."

The samurai captain then turned around and directed the samurai to form a circular formation, surrounding the lava pit. They raised their palms and performed kung fu towards the pit, and wisps of dark light shot out from their palms towards the lava pit.

Although they only have level three cultivation, each warrior has limited power. But the skills of a hundred warriors come together to form a dark and shiny power group above the lava.

Then, the samurai captain also performed his kung fu and waved his palm towards the kung fu ball. A beam of light cracked under the kung fu ball and shot towards the lava mass.

The lava is fiery red, and when it is injected with the power of the dark fox technique, there is no obvious change at first. But after a while, the lava becomes more fiery red, and the flames emitted turn purple.

The ghost hand patrolled around the lava in the air, nodded and said: "Yes, that's it. You are divided into three groups, including the black fox warriors from Yuantou Mountain, to apply power to the lava day and night to keep the lava at a higher temperature."

The captain said: "I will obey the order of the island master."

"I come here every day to check and adjust the temperature and pressure of the lava." Ghost Hand said.

The lava emits waves of heat and a strange smell, probably because the minerals in the soil are being burned and are being transformed.

Ghost Hand checked for half an hour, then took Xiaoqian and flew away from the cliff. But he did not fly to Jianfeng Mountain, but to Yuantou Mountain.

***

The night was very peaceful. If it weren't for the burning fire of the lava, the cliff island would be completely immersed in tranquility.

The ghostly hand took Xiaoqian and flew to the top of Yuantou Mountain, and slowly fell down to a circular grassland on the top of the mountain. Yuantou Mountain was covered with trees, and there was only a grassland dozens of feet square at the top of the mountain.

"Who?!" A shout came from the woods immediately.

Xiaoqian said: "The island owner came to check Yuantou Mountain."

The voice in the woods immediately became respectful and said: "Welcome to the island owner." Ten warriors slipped out, but they were a patrol of black fox warriors dressed in black.

The ghost waved his hand, indicating that they should continue their patrol.

He walked to the center of the grass, did a little exercise and waved his hands, and a two-foot-sized hole appeared in the grass. The ghostly hand led Xiaoqian into the hole.

Inside the cave is an earthen tunnel, with two black warriors guarding the entrance.

After flying along the tunnel for dozens of feet, it turned into a stone tunnel.

The ghost hand stopped and carefully examined the soil and rocks on the cave wall. He picked off a small piece of soil, crushed it in his palm, and turned it over and over to examine it.

Xiaoqian asked curiously: "Is the soil here different?"

Gui Meishou was silent for a moment and then said: "Well. If you want to refine gold, the quality of the soil is also very important. Different soil qualities must be matched with different burning temperatures and pressures to make gold possible."

Ghost Hand walked slowly down the cave again, while checking the color of the rocks on the stone walls of the cave. Xiaoqian guessed that he was studying the past smelting experience and making various comparisons to determine the subsequent smelting direction.

The two walked slowly in the tunnel. Whenever the color of the rocks changed, the ghostly hands would lie on the rock wall to check carefully.

"Have you noticed? The metal content on the stone walls of Yuantou Mountain is more than that of Jianfeng Mountain." Ghost Hand inspected the entire three-mile-long cave and came to a more certain conclusion.

There are often metallic luster stripes on the rock walls here. There are black, shiny, dark red, and various colors. They are obviously not stones, but made of metal.

The caves in Yuantou Mountain are different from those in Jianfeng Mountain. There are grottoes of different sizes on both sides of the cave. Inside are the residences or storage rooms of the black fox warriors. They watched the island owner and the chief steward slowly walk by.

Lying on the rock wall to check, everyone felt baffled, but they didn't dare to disturb the two of them.

Until they reached the end of the cave, a large cave appeared. However, this cave was smaller than the practice ground in Jianfeng Mountain, only thirty feet in size.

There are thirty black fox warriors meditating and practicing in the cave. There is a mana lighting ball hanging on the top of the cave, and the light is not very bright.

The black warriors all wear windbreakers and hats, and the whole room looks a bit spooky.

The leader was a black fox fairy. When she saw the ghostly hand flashing into the practice ground, she immediately stood up respectfully, saluted and said: "Hei Gu respectfully welcomes the island master."

As she spoke, she turned to Xiaoqian again, raised her brows slightly, and saluted somewhat reluctantly.

Ghost Hand coughed and said: "The rocks are being smelted above. You can dispatch a hundred black warriors to smelt them together with the white warriors."

Hei Gu is the leader of the Black Fox Clan. She said sourly: "It's rare that the island owner still remembers our Black Fox Clan, haha."

Ghost Hand coughed again and said: "If the alchemy is successful, you will be promoted to the chief steward of Cliff Island."

Not only Xiaoqian was stunned by this sentence, but Hei Gu was also stunned. She looked at Gui Meishou and Xiaoqian, and said coldly: "Isn't Sister Xiaoqian going to be the housekeeper?"

The ghost hand smiled and said: "Hei Gu, don't worry about the fight many years ago. Now we have to work together to find alchemy, and I don't have much time. You two are the stewards of Cliff Island!"

Hei Gu smiled again, showing a hint of charm. She winked at the ghost hand and said, "It's rare that the island owner values ​​Gu Hei, so I will naturally help you with all my strength."

Ghost Shou breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "I have carefully studied the past smelting, and the skills of your black warriors are slightly different from those of the white warriors, which may be more conducive to smelting gold."

Xiaoqian then nodded and understood the purpose of the ghost hand coming to Yuantou Mountain.

For decades, there has always been a competitive relationship between the black and white fox clans on Cliff Island. The reason is that Gui Meishou likes Xiaoqian and has always relied on the white fox clan, and Hei Gu has never been a big housekeeper.

Ghost Hand turned around and said to Xiaoqian: "Okay, you go back first. I will stay here tonight."

Hei Gu's face showed a look of ecstasy, her voice became softer, and she said: "That's great. I'll prepare a banquet for the island owner right away!" She reached out to take the ghost's hand and forced him to leave the practice ground.
