Drunk Immortal Gourd

"Fellow Taoist, can you be more detailed?" Qingyang said.

The master of the ghost cave said: "Let's put it this way, the monks in the sect who were punished here have not only a time limit but also task requirements. Ge Dagen's mistake was not big, so the sect only fined him for three years. The three years have actually come long ago, but the sect still has regulations. The disciples who are punished here must pay a certain amount of ore every year. Ge Dagen has not completed the task for three consecutive years, and the amount is too different from the prescribed amount. In a short period of time, I definitely can’t leave…”

Master Guiku did not discriminate against Qingyang because he was just a pharmacist's assistant. Instead, he patiently explained to him. After listening to what the other party said, Qingyang gradually understood.

The deadline for Ge Dagen's punishment has come, but the task has not been completed. He can't leave the mine until now. If this happens, either the goal set by the sect is too high and cannot be completed at all. However, the possibility of this situation is very low. The goals set by the sect are all well-founded. If it was really difficult to achieve, others would have started making trouble. Either Ge Dagen is extremely unlucky, but the possibility is unlikely. One year of bad luck is understandable, but three consecutive years of bad luck is abnormal.

In addition to the above situation, there is another reason, that is, the ore he mined is enough, and it is very likely that it will be snatched away by others. This will make him unable to complete the task assigned by the sect. As for secretly hiding it for himself, this possibility Not very sexy, Ghost Valley monitors the punished disciples in the mine very strictly, and they cannot be taken away even if they are hidden, so why would you do such a stupid thing?

It seems that Ge Dagen's life is really difficult. Qingyang said: "I wonder which mine Ge Dagen is in now. How can I find him?"

The master of Guiku said: "This mine has been gradually depleted due to years of mining. Most of the mines have been abandoned. The one that is still being mined is mainly a mine in the northeast corner. Almost all the disciples punished by the sect They are all concentrated here. Even so, the terrain below is extremely complicated. It is very difficult to find someone. Let alone you, even those of us who have been here all year round can’t figure it out. It is precisely because of this that the sect will Give a three-month visitation period.”

After hearing what Master Guiku said, Qingyang couldn't help but wonder: "It's even difficult for you to find people? Then how do you manage these people? Aren't you afraid that they will escape secretly?"

The ghost cave master smiled, took out a disc with a hint of ghost energy from his arms, and said: "This matter is easy to handle. Every Ghost Valley disciple who needs to enter the mine will have his identity token recorded. As long as this disc exceeds the specified range of the disc, we will find it immediately and go to intercept it. Moreover, we have requirements that the disciples in the mine must report and pay the ore every year. Mission, no one can escape our surveillance.”

Ghost Valley has extensive management for disciples who make mistakes. They will throw you into the mine. As long as you can't escape, no one will care about anything you do in the mine, and you can't be controlled. The Nether Realm has abundant ghost energy and lack of spiritual energy, which is extremely disadvantageous for fairy monks like Ge Dagen. No wonder Ge Dagen lives such a miserable life and cannot complete his tasks for several years in a row.

Since they don't know where Ge Dagen is, they can only go down and find it slowly by themselves. Qingyang thanked the ghost cave master, entered the identity token into the disc in his hand, and put the gifts he made on his body. Fu checked it with the ghost cave master, and then under his guidance, he came to the mine in the northeast corner.

The entrance to the mine is not big, but the situation inside is extremely complicated. Every time you go forward, you will encounter several branches, and each branch leads to a different place, which can be said to be connected in all directions.

Qingyang had been to the Thousand Cave Cave when he was in Yuling City on the Kyushu Continent, and later he had been to the Earth Core Cave in the Yinfengji Fire Cave in Jiuxian City. None of them were as complicated as the mine in front of him, which is what Qingyang is now cultivating. He is tall and has an extremely powerful memory. He can almost remember all the roads he has taken in this mine. Otherwise, he would have been lost long ago.

Qingyang walked forward, stopping and walking, memorizing the road while looking for Ge Dagen. However, the terrain of the mine was too complicated, and Qingyang didn't know where he was, so it was too troublesome to find him. In the blink of an eye, Four or five days passed, but nothing was found.

Occasionally, Qingyang would encounter one or two Ghost Valley disciples who were punished. There were nearly a thousand Ghost Valley disciples imprisoned in the entire mine. Although the mine was large enough, it was impossible not to encounter anyone.

Those imprisoned here are all those who have made mistakes. Most of them are unruly disciples. They have been imprisoned in such a dark place for so long, and they are more or less hostile. It is not easy to meet a living person. People, their eyes almost glowed green, but after seeing Qingyang's cultivation level, they all backed down. Golden elixir monks cannot be provoked casually.

Most of the people imprisoned here are disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage and below. Of course there are also Golden Core cultivators, but the number is very small. Those who are higher up cannot be imprisoned here even if they really commit crimes. With Qingyang With his current level of cultivation, there are really not many people who are stronger than him.

This is a mine that contains blue underworld stone. After refining the underworld stone, I heard that it can be used to refine high-grade underworld weapons. When this mine was in its heyday, there were thousands of miners here alone, and more than a million Qingming Stones were mined. Each person could mine hundreds of Qingming Stones of various grades every year. Today, The mines are gradually drying up, and the number of people mining has been greatly reduced. In addition, the punished disciples are unable to work hard. The number of Qingming stones mined every year is less than 100,000 yuan. On average, each person per year is less than 100 yuan, and the level They are all very low.

Qingyang has been in the mine for several days, but Ge Dagen hasn't found it yet. However, he has found two or three pieces of Qingming ore, and his efficiency is even higher than that of the Ghost Valley disciples who were punished in the mine. After all, he is a golden elixir monk, and his spiritual thoughts are much more powerful than those of a foundation-building monk. Although there are many restrictions on prospecting, he can explore further and deeper than a foundation-building monk. Qingyang just tried it casually. I found the Qingming Stone buried deep in the soil, so I dug it out.

Small mosquitoes are also meat. A few years ago, Qingyang had very few spiritual stones left in order to acquire the Hantan Order. He was worried that he would not be able to find an opportunity to earn spiritual stones. Now, wouldn't this opportunity come to his doorstep?

Before coming here, Master Guikou said that if he could dig out the Qingming Stone in the mine, he could sell it to the sect for 50% of the price when he left the mine, not to mention that he could also hide the Qingming Stone in Zuixian Outside the gourd belt road, the selling price will be higher in the future.
