Drunk Immortal Gourd

Later, the Spiritual Mine Academy of Qingfeng Palace will establish a stronghold here, and then organize the disciples from the outer courtyard and the handyman academy to come and mine. At that time, the tasks of Qingyang and the inner courtyard disciples will be much easier. As long as they ensure the stronghold and the mining disciples The security is fine.

Before coming here, everyone only knew roughly that the Lingshi mine had been discovered in Jingfeng Mountain, but did not know many details. Now that Master Kang introduced the details, everyone knew the whole story. For this kind of early-stage work, it would be a bit overqualified to find foundation-building monks, and it would be too dangerous to find disciples from the outer courtyard and the handyman courtyard, so it is suitable for the disciples from the inner courtyard to do it.

After Master Kang finished introducing the situation, Qingyuan Sanren continued: "The area divided by our Qingfeng Palace covers hundreds of miles, and the task is still very heavy. Other sects have already launched operations, and some are even in the mines. The spirit stone has been discovered, and we at Qingfeng Palace cannot lag behind. Let’s get ready today and officially start taking action tomorrow.”

After the Qingyuan Sanren arranged their tasks, they remained silent. Then Master Liang and Master Zhou each explained a few words and sent them away. Then Master Kang took everyone out of the reception hall and took them to the accommodation that had been prepared.

There was no words all night, and early the next morning, Master Kang came over with several descendants, and then left the Kang family manor with everyone and walked towards the depths of Jingfeng Mountain. As for the three master uncles in the foundation building stage, it is naturally not their turn to do these trivial matters.

Master Kang is indeed a local snake near Jingfeng Mountain. He knows the situation here very well. He introduced it while walking, giving everyone a general understanding of the entire Jingfeng Mountain.

The area divided by Qingfeng Hall is located in the northwest of Jingfeng Pavilion. The entire area is hundreds of miles in radius and is close to the Yin Yang Sect and the Demon Suppressing Hall. In such a large area, considering that there are countless underground mines, even if they have fifteen people, they will not be able to explore it all in a short time.

After some discussion, everyone decided to divide into three groups, with Li Shengbo and two inner courtyard disciples from the ninth level of Qi Refining as the captains of the three teams. The entire area belonging to Qingfeng Hall was also divided into three areas, and each of the three teams was responsible for one area.

There were five people in each group. Qingyang and Chen Biwang were both assigned to Li Shengbo's group. The other two team members were only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. One was named Zeng Shuisheng and the other was named Miao Baoye. There is one person from Kangjiazhuang as a guide for each group, and the owner of Kangzhuang is also from Qingyang's group.

Then the three teams acted independently. Li Shengbo took Qingyang and others to the area they were assigned. Although it was divided into three large areas, the area that each team was responsible for was not small, with a radius of two to three hundred miles. It's easier above the ground. If you just walk over there, the ordinary low-level monsters can be easily dealt with. When you encounter stronger monsters, it won't cause them too much trouble. Just say hello and other people will be there. You can come over and cooperate.

However, it is more troublesome to explore the mines below the ground. The mines are so dark that they cannot be seen with the eyes, so they can only be explored with the spiritual thoughts of the Qi Refining monks. Moreover, the underground mines are extremely complicated and connected with twists and turns. Especially when they encounter some special places where spiritual stones may appear, they still have to try to dig. Therefore, their speed cannot be increased at all. In the blink of an eye, three or four people Months have passed, and almost half of the area has been explored.

After three or four consecutive months of getting along, Qingyang has become quite familiar with several other teammates. However, they are all monks, have their own thoughts, and are very wary. Unless they are old friends like Qingyang and Chen Biwang, Generally there is little communication with each other.

The only exception is Master Nakang. He likes to talk to other people when he has nothing to do, especially when he takes good care of Qingyang. In fact, this is normal. Master Kang has left Qingfeng Palace. For the sake of future generations, he must make good friends with the disciples of Qingfeng Palace no matter what, especially those who have a promising future, and Qingyang is the most promising among them. That one.

Among these five people, not to mention Li Shengbo and Chen Biwang, one is in his sixties and the other is in his fifties. Although they are strong, they are older and have limited potential. Zeng Shuisheng and Miao Baoye are in slightly better condition. It's better, but it's not as good as Qingyang.

After three or four months of continuous searching, several first- and second-level monsters were killed, but not a single spirit stone was found. There was no useful news from the other two teams, and it seemed that just like them, they also found nothing. . I don’t know if Qingfeng Palace was not lucky enough and was assigned a completely useless area, or if they didn’t find the right place.

That night, I just returned to the surface after exploring an underground mine. I ate some food to replenish my strength. Seeing everyone's weakness, Zeng Shuisheng couldn't help but speak and said: "Senior Brother Li, three days have passed. It's been many months and we haven't found anything. Could it be that there are no spiritual stone mines in the area assigned to us by Qingfeng Palace?"

Li Shengbo was also unsure, but as the captain of several people, he could only say: "It shouldn't be possible. Two days ago, Master Zhou sent news that other sects had discovered mines with spiritual stones one after another. It is impossible that only There is nothing in our area.”

Chen Biwang next to him said: "These are mines that have been abandoned for thousands of years. If the spiritual stones were easy to find, the people who mined in the past would have discovered them long ago. How could they have waited for us to look for them? I feel that we did not go deep into the mines carefully." Look, if you dig deeper, you might find something.”

"But that would not be enough time. We have been busy here for more than three months, and we have only briefly visited the parts above the ground. Less than half of the underground mines have been clearly explored. If every mine has to be dug deeply, I'm afraid two more years won't be enough," Zeng Shuisheng said.

Li Shengbo said: "We don't need to worry about digging deeply. Our mission is not to prospect, but to find out the surrounding environment, eliminate the dangers in this area as much as possible, and create conditions for the Spiritual Mine Institute to set up a stronghold here. Last time Master Zhou I told you when I came here that the disciples from the outer courtyard and the auxiliary courtyard mobilized by the Spirit Mine Academy will arrive soon. When they start their work, sooner or later they will discover the underground spirit stone veins. "

"But in that case, nothing will happen to us..." Zeng Shuisheng muttered in a low voice, a little unwillingly.

It’s not that he cares much about the interests of the sect, but because if the spirit stone veins are discovered, the Spirit Mine Institute will issue extra rewards to them, and they will be issued based on the conditions of the spirit stone veins discovered. The number of rewards is average. Nothing is too small.
