Beauty and the Bodyguard

Then he continued: "That's a total of twenty-five pieces of spiritual jade. For ordinary people, it is simply a windfall. It is just like winning five million in a lottery in their secular definition. There is no reaction in one night. It’s normal to come here, not to mention that the argument I gave him yesterday was reasonable and reasonable, and it wasn’t a lie. If he doesn’t believe it, then there’s something wrong with him!”

"That's true. We tried our best to lay such a trap for him. If this kid reacts so quickly, it would be a shame for the ninth cousin's hard work." Meng Tong nodded in agreement.

"Hey, maybe this kid will be so confused in the next few days. He thought he had become a rich man with twenty-five pieces of spiritual jade, but in the end he found out that this pile of jade was all useless jade. Hahaha, I hope The higher you go, the harder you fall, and your expression will be very exciting when the time comes!" Meng Jueguang said quite proudly.

From the first day of registration as a newcomer, he and Lin Yi had never gained any decent advantage in any direct or indirect confrontation. On the contrary, he, the elder brother in charge, had made a lot of mistakes, and even like this recent one Lin Yi was kicked to the dead mining area No. 10 by him, but in the end he was still in trouble, which made him lose face.

But this time, Lin Yi was finally tricked by him. Not to mention changing the mining area, the key was to get a good piece of jade. He was literally tricked with blood all over his face! For Meng Jueguang, the elder brother in charge, it is much more satisfying to play with Lin Yi, a tough newcomer, than to deal with other newcomers who are useless. This is a scene he has been looking forward to for a long time!

If these two people knew that their clever plan not only failed to trick Lin Yi, but even gave Lin Yi a big gift, I really don't know what their expressions would be. Of course, as long as Lin Yi didn't tell him about this, these two money-giving boys would never know the truth in their lives, and they would probably continue to be complacent!

Walking along the No. 7 Mine Road, although it was the same winding mine road and the environment was similar, Lin Yi could clearly feel the difference between this place and the No. 10 Mine Road. Mine Lane No. 10 is not only more remote and remote than Mine Lane No. 7, but more obviously, there are not so many people in Mine Lane No. 10.

Compared with Mine Lane No. 10, where no one could be seen alive from the beginning to the end, Mine Lane No. 7 is quite lively, and you can see some colleagues from time to time. In fact, mining areas like No. 7, which are ranked in the middle and lower reaches, do have one of the largest number of people among all mining areas.

After all, in addition to pure newcomers like Lin Yi, the most important group of people who come into mining are those newcomers who failed to successfully build foundations in the Yingxin Pavilion. According to the rules, they cannot directly join the three major pavilions, but can only While working hard in a place like Lingyu Mine, I was looking for a breakthrough.

Compared with Chongtian Pavilion, which has a profound background, and Xuanji Pavilion, which is powerful, the possibility of failure in foundation building for this group of new grassroots cultivators in Qingyun Pavilion is obviously higher, so naturally, more coolies will be assigned to the mining area, and As for the mining area at the top, although the jade yield rate is higher, it is allocated to Chongtian Pavilion and Xuanji Pavilion. Compared with the No. 7 mining area allocated to Qingyun Pavilion, the number of people is naturally smaller.

After arriving at the No. 7 mining area, Lin Yi looked around and then found an unoccupied mining site and started working. He did not intend to hide the spiritual jade today. His main purpose was to explore and familiarize himself with the environment. After all, including the twenty-five yuan that Meng Jueguang sent yesterday, Lin Yi now has a total of thirty-one spiritual jade on hand, which is enough for him to buy several quantities of alchemy materials. It can be said that the demand for spiritual jade is not urgent in a short period of time. You can play it safe and take your time.

While digging, while constantly paying attention to his surroundings, Lin Yi quickly came up with several pieces of useful information.

First, the level of monitoring in Mining Area No. 7 is far more stringent than that in Dead Mining Area No. 10. Although the two mining areas are actually not much different in terms of area, there are only two guards in Mining Area No. 10, while there are ten guards in Mining Area No. 7, not only with fixed sentries, but also with specialized patrol personnel. , with such intensive monitoring, ordinary heaven-level masters cannot make any small moves at all. To use such twisted thoughts is simply to seek death.

Secondly, there are indeed many people in Mining Area No. 7. There are dozens of mining sites scattered around the huge No. 7 mining area. Except for a few that no one cares about, every other mining site has at least one or two people mining there. Some popular mining sites are even surrounded by people. Four or five people, this is not digging for spiritual jade, but robbing spiritual jade.

Thirdly, the jade yield rate in Mining Area No. 7 is indeed much higher than that in Mining Area No. 10. In just half an hour, Lin Yi had already dug up six pieces of spiritual jade. Two pieces were pure waste jade that could be seen at a glance. They were thrown directly into the open space behind them as the people around them did. Special guards would take them away. Three pieces were waste jade with only appearance but thin spiritual energy, and the remaining That piece is truly a good piece of jade that is full of spiritual energy. This kind of speed of jade production is completely different from the time in the No. 10 mining area two days ago.

Lin Yi nodded secretly. Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away goods. It can be seen that Ling Yutang's division of mining areas is still very reasonable.

While he was looking around, there was a sudden loud noise not far away. Lin Yi couldn't help but turn his head to look, but unexpectedly found a familiar face.

Since the other newcomers of Qingyun Pavilion in the same period were all assigned to the No. 8 mining area by Meng Jueguang, and Meng Jueguang and Meng Tong never showed up, Lin Yi knew almost no one among the dozens of people in the No. 7 mining area. This person is an exception, Li Zhengming.

Although from the first day to now, this Li Zhengming has not done anything special except hugging Meng Jueguang's thigh. It feels like he is just a follower of Meng Jueguang and Meng Tong, without any outstanding features, but this person is left to Lin Yi The impression is far less transparent.

On the contrary, this man is very scheming and is much harder to deal with than a brainless guy like Meng Tong. However, Li Zhengming only catered to Meng Jueguang and Meng Tong from the beginning to the end, and never took the initiative to feel sorry for Lin Yi. As long as the water in the well did not interfere with the river, Lin Yi did not bother to waste energy on paying too much attention to him.

The loud noise just now was made by Li Zhengming, but other people around him, including guards and diggers, turned a deaf ear to it and seemed to be used to it.

Only Lin Yi, a newcomer who had just arrived, was confused. He was just digging a jade mine. Why was there such a big movement? Could it be that his mine was about to collapse? Logically speaking, all the mining areas of the Lingyu Mine have been reinforced by formations, so there is no possibility of collapse?
