54. Strange Things

Ye Shu made a decision, so he naturally had to go.

The man hurriedly said, "I'll let you know that if you want to go to prospect, you'll need a thousand taels of silver if you want to go to one place. For each extra person, you'll need a hundred taels of silver. If the three want to go to the same place, they must take out 1,200 taels of silver before they can."

Xiao Ming said, "It's okay. Could it be that I can't afford this little silver?" He said, while quietly looking at Ye Shu and Yan Changlan. Seeing that they were indeed calm, he knew that he was right.

The man looked happy and then led the way: "Since that's the case, please ask a few of you to accompany the young and old men?"

Xiao Ming took the initiative to greet him: "Please."

Ye Shu and Yan Changlan followed with reserve and showed off their style.

The atmosphere created by the three of them made the man's attitude more meticulous.

Soon, they walked out of the town and came to an iron railing outside the town surrounded by many monks.

From a distance, there is a dug depression in the iron railing. After the soil on the surface was dug out, it exposed the ore veins with a trace of metallic light below. This ore vein was knocked out, and it was pitch black inside. From time to time, some men and women were in and out. Among the men and women, some were pushing mine carts. These people often had more fatigue on their faces, and some even looked old. Many were carrying bags, and they looked a little more powerful and relaxed than the former.

Most of the people who mine ores here are poor mortals who have the strength to be strong. There are only some ore of high-level, and monks must take action by themselves, even those with baggages. But even so, monks with slightly higher levels are unwilling to do this mining. If you occasionally see monks above the third level of Qi Refining, they must be from several powerful families in this mine.

Besides, the iron railings surrounded outside were built for a long time, and a huge piece of land was enclosed inside, so that outsiders could not covet the mineral veins. The monks guarding outside came from different families. They originally looked alert when Ye Shu and his other people approached, but after the thin old man who brought them over wrinkled his face and said a few words, they gave in and let it go.

The thin old man hurriedly asked for credit: "Look, the old man is dedicated to treating the rich and powerful people to enjoy strange things. He is also quite handsome in front of the monks who are stationed here."

Xiao Ming smiled and said, "I have led the way."

The thin old man laughed: "There are also some people who have strong financial resources. Otherwise, the old man would not dare to bring people in at will, right?"

After a few jokes like this, we arrived near the ore vein.

There were many supervisors there. After the thin old man came over to negotiate with them and stuffed some money, the supervisor smiled and pointed at the other end: "I opened three prospecting places today. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

The thin old man quickly flattered him a few more words before turning back to Ye Shu and others, and turned around: "You guys come here, there are three mines to choose from."

Ye Shu and his party walked with him and walked to three mine caves not far apart.

Yan Changlan asked: "Who is the money given to? If you want to enter it, what are the rules?"

The thin old man said, "There are people guarding the mine in front of the mine. You can just hand over the silver when you go in. In addition, you can only enter for six hours. Once the hour arrives, you will have to leave. If you refuse to leave, someone will go in and expel you. You can continue to stay unless you pay the money again... There are no rules next to you."

Xiao Ming couldn't help but be amazed: "A thousand taels of silver can only be bought for six hours, and those rich and powerful people should be good at managing them."

The thin old man smiled and said, "In six hours, you can choose the strange things in the mine cave. You can take away as much as you can. If you can't take out one piece, you can choose one piece from the person guarding the cave when you leave. If you have that skillful person and dig out several pieces in the hour, wouldn't it be a big profit?"

Ye Shu pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, unmoved.

This seems to make sense, but I don’t think of many strange things in the mine, and mining is extremely difficult. Otherwise, if everyone asked others to take them away, wouldn’t the owner of the mine be too much?

Businessmen are seeking profit, and the so-called "rich man" is just a gimmick.

Yan Changlan and Xiao Ming also saw something, but for them, this time they just came here to gain a long experience. It would be better to be able to create strange things. If they can't, they might not be disappointed.

Soon a few people picked up a mine cave and walked in, gave the silver note at the door, and the thin old man led them into the cave.

Ye Shu and others were new to the city and didn't know much about the strange thing. They still needed this old man to guide him before they could know how to mine it in the future.

There was some iron color on the left and right inside the mine.

Most of them are dark gray, but there are also many red and purple lights, which come from different iron species. But iron ore is iron ore, where are the strange things?

It's indeed very rare.

After about ten feet deep, the thin old man pointed to a place on the mine wall and said, "Please look, this is a sign of strange things."

Ye Shu looked over and saw a layer of yellow-gray moss on the surface of the ore wall, which looked very hard. After thinking about it, he did not recognize what kind of moss it was, but since the people in the mine regarded it as a sign, it must have appeared that it was indeed related to strange things.

The world is so great that everything is strange.

Although Ye Shu had never seen such a thing in ancient books, he has learned it now and remembered it.

Xiao Ming asked about the yellow and gray moss.

The thin old man said, "Why didn't the old man know about this thing? It's just that there are all the strange things that were dug out in the past. Once you see this thing dig it up, you can find strange things in seven or eight out of ten."

After the introduction, the thin old man said goodbye and left.

The three of them were left to look at the yellow-grey moss, with different thoughts.

Yan Changlan said: "Ah Zhuo, do you need to dig it open? Or look for a few more places and pick one?"

Ye Shu said, "The left and right don't know what's inside, so I just dug it up."

Yan Changlan looked at Xiao Ming again.

Xiao Ming smiled and said, "This time, my brother Yu is a guest. He didn't pay any money, just put in his strength. Fellow Daoist is the one next to him."

So, Yan Changlan took out the wooden sword that Ye Shu made for him as Ye Shu said, injected magic power, and dug hard at the place where the yellow-grey moss was.

With a sound of "dang", the wooden sword stabbed away as if it was pierced on the sperm iron, and it only pierced a very shallow pit, which showed that the yellow-grey moss was extremely stubborn and indeed difficult to dig.

Yan Changlan was a little embarrassed.

Ye Shu said: "Although the wooden sword is sharp, it may not be very effective at this time."

Xiao Ming thought about it and took out his magic weapon.

The origin of this magic weapon was that because his family had collected a group of excellent low-grade magic weapons, he could choose one as a reward. He had no intention of his own weapons, but later he wanted to establish a good relationship with Yan Changlan. When Yan Changlan practiced swords, he picked a magic sword, intending to choose a sword technique to practice after returning to the sect, so as to find opportunities and ask Yan Changlan for advice.

Although I have not used sword techniques to make connections, I have other uses.

This sword is of excellent quality among the lower-grade magic weapons, and coincidentally, the prohibition engraved on the sword actually exploded! Then if Yan Changlan used this sword to use the Thunder Sword Technique, with a violent force bonus, and then exploded it and exploded it, wouldn't it be much easier than they had originally wanted!

Then, Ye Shu took the sword and handed it to the person beside him: "Changlan, I want to take a look at your sword technique."

After hearing this, Yan Changlan felt a little excited and then smiled brightly: "I will not let Azhu down."

The next moment, Yan Changlan asked the two of them to retreat a little, and in front of the mine wall, he used the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique!

This time, it was not a combination of two swords, so there was only thunder and no wind.

But as the thoughts of several people, the thunder and thunder were combined with the explosion and a fierce roar exploded as soon as it hit the mine wall! When the sound broke out, countless iron ore fragments flew up, like hidden weapons, and the strength was terrifying. If someone accidentally scratched it, he might be injured!

Xiao Ming's throat moved and he swallowed.

He never thought that the power of breaking the ban and using the Thunder Sword Technique was even stronger than he had thought in advance!

If it is used on the opponent... I am afraid that if this sword is stabbed, the opponent's entire body will explode!

On the mine wall, the piece where the yellow-grey moss is located was broken, revealing an ugly iron block with uneven skin inside.

This iron piece seems to be the strange thing that the thin old man said?

No matter what, Yan Changlan used some more strength to dig it out.

Then he used his sword technique and directly cut the iron block-

Inside the iron block was a small iron-gray grass about three inches long, with only one thin one. It even seemed a little weak, but it attracted the attention of several people.

Xiao Ming couldn't help but say in disbelief: "Is this - Iron Beard Grass?"

Isn't that thin and long, just like a whisker? The iron whisker grass grows in an iron block and absorbs iron essence and grows, which is extremely strange. Once used in magic tools, this grass can reduce the conflict between any iron ingredient and increase the number of successful molding of the tool embryo. It is one of the most popular spiritual herbs for weapon refiners.

Ye Shu seemed to be in a good mood: "This thing can be taken back and given to Master."

Xiao Ming wanted to buy the iron beard grass, but after Ye Shu said this, he was not inconvenient to mention anything else.

——Well, an excellent weapon refiner is much more important than Iron Beard.

Seeing Ye Shu put away the iron beard grass, Yan Changlan said, "I have good luck today. Now I have only spent three strands of magic power and have been put together for less than half an hour. Going to find a few more places will be more than enough time."

Ye Shu said: "Since you are here, you must not let it go."

Everyone knows what they should not let down.

Then they searched for the yellow-grey moss together, and also looked for new strange things.

However, it was really hard to find the strange things in the mine cave. It was not until half an hour later that they found another place. Unfortunately, after digging out this place, they only obtained a piece of iron essence weighing less than ten kilograms, which was neither good nor bad.

In another hour, I got the third piece, which was also a heavy iron essence; in another half an hour, the fourth piece...
