Chapter 149, Illusory Amethyst, Medium
A moment later, Tang Gu appeared at the bottom of the Purple Mountain Peak... Read the latest and most complete novel
Looking forward, there was a very wide double-travel road. At this moment, there were more than a dozen mine carts covered with thick oil cloth coming in and out.
Tang Gu ignored it, and moved his body and walked in along the gate.
As I saw that the cave was very wide, slightly cool and dark, and the walls were filled with torches as thick as arms.
In the center, there was a row of sharpened iron fences at the upper end. A middle-aged man in blue shirt stood aside and wrote a record. All those entering and leaving had to register under the fence.
Four or five silver-clothed guards stood beside him, holding swords to warn him, with majestic eyes, and their eyes were as sharp as vultures' prey.
Anyone who comes in and out must be looked at by him repeatedly, and no one is allowed to hide his own private affairs.
Tang Gu's eyes turned and walked over.
"But the local manager?"
"Well, it's not bad, I'm, are you?"
The middle-aged man in blue shirt turned around and looked at Tang Gu in confusion, then kindly persuaded him: "Young man, if you have nothing to do, this is the important place of Xinglin Villa mine. No one is allowed to trespass, otherwise there will be no mercy to kill!"
Tang Gu smiled slightly, reached out and took out his identity wooden sign from his arms, handed it over, and smiled and said, "I was punished by the Criminal Court to come here to mine."
"oh?"
The middle-aged man in blue shirt obviously seemed to be commonplace for this situation, but he was not surprised when he heard this. He took Tang Gu's identity wooden sign and took a look: "Merry Disciple, no wonder..."
His eyes turned and he glanced behind Tang Gu. He couldn't help but say strangely: "Is there no one with you?"
Tang Gu was stunned, but he replied quickly: "No..."
"Um?"
Now, the middle-aged man in blue was a little surprised, and then seemed to remember something and said with a funny look: "It must be that the punishment order has just been issued. Before you can get the official punishment order notice, you came here by yourself, right?"
Tang Gu touched his nose, said "Uh" and said, "There is still this procedure?"
He still really doesn't know about this.
But it’s not surprising. The Criminal Court Punishment Order naturally had a necessary procedure to go. When Tang Gu left the Criminal Court, he flew directly to the mine, so he walked in front of the arrival of the Criminal Order.
When the middle-aged deacon in Lanshan heard this, he was a little amused and crying. However, he nodded and said, "Okay. You go down first. I will record it when the official notice from the Criminal Court comes."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, you are conscious that the official notice from the Criminal Court has not yet been released, but you are here first."
When Tang Gu heard this, he was not angry. As soon as he walked inward, he asked, "I dare to ask about the affairs, what are the rules in this mine?"
"Um!"
The middle-aged man in blue shirt slapped his head and smiled, "I almost forgot it after you've been around. Remember, ordinary disciples need to hand over fifty kilograms of fire crystals every week, and two hundred kilograms a month. You can hand over once a week or once a month."
"The punishment disciples need to double the amount. They need to hand over 100 kilograms of fire crystal stones every week, and 400 kilograms per month. The remaining tasks that are completed can be sold here to the sect contribution hall, or they can be taken out to sell them yourself, but..."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man in blue shirt looked solemn: "If it is not completed on time, he needs to stay here until the task is completed, otherwise he will not leave, even if it is ten or a hundred years, it will be the same!"
"Um."
Upon hearing this, Tang Gu nodded and expressed his gratitude. Then he passed the crowd and walked into the fence. After taking off an ordinary mine hoe on the wall at the side corner, he walked towards the depths of the mine.
Behind him, the middle-aged man in blue and four or five silver-clothed guards looked at his back. A silver-clothed man smiled and said, "He actually has the strength of six turns of the airway, which is enough to be comparable to some ordinary elite disciples. He is an interesting boy."
"I don't know when he can survive in this mine?" another man in silver interjected.
"This is not the point." The previous silver-clothed guard said proudly: "The key point is to see how many fire crystals he can dig out in a month. This is what is worth looking forward to. Do you think it is 60 kilograms or 80 kilograms?"
"No, the sixth turn of the airway cannot even complete the mission? If you say this, wouldn't he want to stay in the mine for another four or five months? In my opinion, one hundred kilograms should be there."
"I bet sixty pounds!"
"I bet eighty pounds!"
Several men in silver were in high spirits, and even the middle-aged manager in blue was aroused by interest and participated in the gambling battle.
However, no one thought that Tang Gu could dig out more than 100 kilograms of ore in a month, or that middle-aged man in blue who seemed to be very easy to talk to.
In this case, the punishment order issued by the Xinglin Villa Criminal Court... isn't it a task that cannot be completed in a short time?
Or is the criminal court deliberately messing with people?
Tang Guruo here, and if he learns this, he doesn’t know what he thinks?
Unfortunately, he had already penetrated the mine at this time and walked further down. The discussions of several silver-clothed guards and others behind him could no longer be heard, so naturally he did not know what happened later.
...
The mine cave is getting darker and darker the further down, the roads are crisscrossing, interspersing everywhere, like an extra-large spider web, or an underground maze.
There were some hollowed-out mine caves and some remaining uneven rocks. Tang Gu did not see a single one of the legendary fire crystal mines.
However, this matter is very normal. Tang Gu had just entered the mine cave at this time. According to common sense, this mine has been developed for hundreds of years, and all the fire crystal stones near the entrance of the mine cave have naturally been dug up.
Even this hollowing out time may not be the latest, but hundreds of years ago, and it has nothing.
If Tang Gu wanted to dig a real fire crystal mine, he had no choice but to continue to move down.
Fortunately, he is very powerful and has extraordinary eyesight. Even in such a dim place, he will not have any dark eyes. He can't see anything clearly.
The surrounding scenery is still visible one by one, clearly and clearly, and at a glance.
Tang Gu calmed down and did not stop. He chose a road that looked relatively new and was on the left and continued to move forward.
Sure enough, after choosing this road, not long after turning around, Tang Gu finally heard the sound of "ding...ding...ding..." and the crisp sound of mine hoe digging into the rock wall.
And Tang Gu finally slowly came to the deeper part of the mine.
After a while, following the sound, Tang Gu's eyes lit up.
Not far away, in a sunken mine cave, a middle-aged mine slave wearing greasy, black and tattered clothes, covered in dust and face, unable to see his appearance, had a butter torch next to him, holding a black and shiny mine hoe in his hand, and was digging a fiery red rock in front of him.
As it was lifted up and fell, the crisp sound of "ding, ding, ding..." continued to sound, and the stone walls around the fiery red rocks continued to peel off.
Slowly, a round and transparent fire-red crystal with a cluster of leaping flames appeared in his hand, and then he waved it casually and pulled it into a mine basket that was taller than him.
At this time, there were already half a frame of the same fiery red crystal stones in the tall and large mine basket. Obviously, it was the harvest that the middle-aged mine slave had worked hard here for unknown amounts.
Seeing this, Tang Gu's eyes flashed slightly.
"Is this the fire crystal ore? It is said that it is divided into inferior, elementary, medium, high, and extreme, and fifth grade."
"Most of the disciples can find and what they usually hand in is only inferior or elementary or medium, and high-level is rare, and high-level is even rare, and their usual exchange methods are also different."
"Ten kilograms are inferior, and can only be converted into one kilogram's primary level. Ten kilograms are inferior, and can only be converted into one kilogram's medium level. The following is equivalent."
"The ore collected by Xinglin Villa has always been calculated only in the elementary level, and the others will be calculated on average in proportion to the elementary level."
"The ores in this mine slave uncle's mine basket are not bright and bright, and the fire-attribute spiritual energy is also very weak. It should be just the lowest level of the lowest level, with only a few pieces, bright red in color, and seem to have spirituality. This is the elementary fire crystal stone."
"It seems that if you want to complete the task faster, you can only continue to go down. The deeper the mine and fewer people are, the greater the probability of high-level fire crystal stones appearing. The nearby area is still too shallow."
Thinking of this, Tang Gu wanted to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that at this moment, the middle-aged gray-clothed mine slave in the mine cave looked around, and actually carried the mine basket on the ground, pulled out the torch inserted on the mud next to him, and walked out.
Next to him, he stared at Tang Gu coldly, then turned around and left. Soon, he turned into a more remote mineway and disappeared.
Seeing this, Tang Gu was helpless and knew that he had been standing here for too long, so the other party regarded him as someone who wanted to steal his mine.
After touching his nose, Tang Gu didn't care much, so he found a completely different path from the middle-aged mine slave just now and continued to walk forward.
Tang Gu turned wherever he was remote, and he met four or five mining people dressed like the middle-aged mine slave just now. This time, Tang Gu did not take a closer look and left directly.
Slowly, the road began to become quiet and desolate, and there was a quiet place around, and no one was seen again.
Tang Gu came to a small mine road and found that some dark red stones inlaid on the nearby rock walls were beginning to appear, and he was immediately overjoyed.
"It's here!"
Judging from the appearance of these stones, they are obviously brighter than the mine where the middle-aged mine slaves were just now, dazzling, at least they are medium-sized fire crystal stones, and even if they are dug deep, they may appear higher.
A medium pound is enough to be ten kilograms of elementary fire crystal stones, and a high pound is enough to be enough to be enough to be one hundred kilograms of elementary fire crystal stones.
Wouldn't that say that if you can dig up to 40 kilograms, or 4 kilograms, you can completely offset the one-month task?
Thinking of the beauty, Tang Gu walked to a rock wall with a lot of dark red stones, opened his mouth and spitted into his palm, then waved the ore hoe in his hand, and swung the dark red crystal stone in front of him with a hard hoe.
"Bang!"
A ripped fire, which made Tang Gu stunned and even depressed.
The dark red stone in front of him was unharmed, leaving only a shallow dent on the surrounding stone walls, while the black rust ore hoe in his hand broke into two pieces in an instant.
Tang Gu picked up the broken ore hoe on the ground and saw that the entire black ore hoe made of fine iron had been rolled up at the entire shovel opening and even the tip.
"how so?"
Tang Gu stood there, speechless for a long time.
