Xuanjian Immortal Clan

Chapter 114 What happened in the mine

A few months after Lu Sisi left, Li Xuanxuan came out of seclusion and broke through the fifth level of Fetal Breathing Jade Wheel. His strength ranked third in the family, followed by his two right-hand men Li Qiuyang and Chen Donghe, both of whom were Fetal Breathing Masters. Four floors.

The momentum at the Qingwu Mine became more lively day by day. Li Xuanxuan gathered a group of strong Shanyue to work in the mine. The wages in the four towns, which had been declining day by day due to the surplus labor, suddenly increased a lot. The negative impact of overpopulation on the people has been greatly alleviated, and their lives have become much more comfortable.

A large number of huts are located along the mine veins. The three families have worked together to build a decent town in the past few months. In the first year, the Li family sent Qi training monks to guard the Qingwu Mine.

According to the agreement, each of the three families sent a fetal breath monk to go to the mine to supervise each other. Li Xuanxuan had already sent Li Qiuyang out for several months.

When Li Xuanfeng rode the wind and landed on the mine, three fetal breath monks were already waiting on the ground, and the surrounding miners knelt down.

"Welcome senior!"

The three of them shouted in unison. Li Xuanfeng just waved his hand, nodded towards Li Qiuyang, and called out:

"Uncle Clan."

Then he looked at the fetal breath monks from the Lu An family, nodded and said:

"No need to be polite."

With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, he found that the two people in front of him were only at the third or fourth level of Fetal Breath, and they were both in their forties or fifties. He waved his hands to disperse the two people, and Li Xuanfeng said in a low voice:

"Uncle Clan, how has the mineral vein been doing in the past few months? Please call me here in a hurry."

Li Qiuyang cupped his hands. The boy who swallowed the snake dragon fruit in the mountains is now more than thirty years old. He has already hugged his grandson. He has a dignified appearance and holds a long knife in his hand. He has the attitude of a family elder and replies:

"I just started digging. Seven were mined in March. The output should gradually increase in the future. However, since the past few months, miners have been speechless from time to time. Last month there were only one or two, and this month there are dozens more. I'll wait." I had no choice but to send someone to deliver the message home."

"Aphasia..."

Li Xuanfeng was carrying a long bow behind him, frowning in confusion, and replied:

"Take me to see these people."

Li Qiuyang nodded repeatedly and led Li Xuanfeng to walk for a while, passing through the large and small tents and arriving at a large courtyard.

There are many Shanyue in the mine, and most of their architectural styles have Shanyue characteristics. This large courtyard was mostly built by the Luan family. Inside, there were more than a dozen people squatting against the wall. Most of them were Shanyue miners who moved from the Li family. An uneasy look on his face.

Seeing Li Qiuyang and Li Xuanfeng coming, the stewards in the courtyard were very nervous. They called out the squatting Shanyue miners one by one, knelt tightly on the ground, and stared anxiously at the ground full of loess.

Li Xuanfeng put his hand on the shoulder of the Shanyue miner at the front, and circulated his true energy for a few times, but found nothing unusual. His face looked slightly strange, but he found an orifice for breathing spiritual energy in the middle-aged man's Qihai cave.

"It's a pity to have a spiritual body."

These words were like a thunder, which made the middle-aged man scream twice, his expression was both excited and sad. Looking at the middle-aged man's pale temples and complicated expression, Li Xuanfeng turned his head and ordered:

"Take this man back and find a suitable eldest daughter to marry."

Li Qiuyang nodded, and several clan soldiers immediately stepped forward to grab the crying and laughing man and took him down. Li Xuanfeng checked a few more among the dozen people, but found nothing, and asked:

"Did anything strange happen to these people before they became speechless?"

"Never..."

Li Qiuyang shook his head and replied:

"On the contrary, four of these dozens of people have mined Qingwu Mine..."

Li Xuanfeng nodded thoughtfully, his eyes lingering on the people in front of him for a while, then he took the blue-black Qingwu ore rough stone handed over by Li Qiuyang. As the true energy flowed, he felt a sharp aura of gold and stone, so he said in a deep voice :

"It's probably because of the Qingwu Mine... I'd like to trouble the clan uncle to call those two people over."

Li Qiuyang nodded when he heard this, and found the monks from the Lu An family. The two stood in front of Li Qiuyang uneasily. They estimated in their hearts that the Li family's qi training would probably find faults in their own family, and they were both frightened.

"People in this mine often suffer from aphasia, do you know?"

The two of them were stunned when they heard Li Xuanfeng's words, and they agreed submissively, cursing:

"Qi training monks still care about the illness, old age, life and death of mortals? Aphasia is not a disability, as long as he can work, who cares about his life and death..."

Li Xuanfeng thought for a few breaths. Qingwu Mine is a spiritual mine after all. The energy of gold and stone may be harmful to the body of mortals. Aphasia is considered a minor problem. Li Xuanfeng is afraid that these thousands of people working in the mine day and night will lose their lives in a few days. The vitality of the moon was exhausted, and thousands of people died in vain.

“How are shifts organized at the mines today?”

"There are more than 4,000 miners, and the mine can accommodate more than 1,000 people. They work in two shifts for three days...responsible for mining and building facilities."

Li Xuanfeng waved his hand and said:

"Divide the mine into four shifts. Don't let the miners stay in the mine for too long. Then I will dispatch people from the tribe to work multiple shifts."

Seeing the two people saying yes, Li Xuanfeng shook his head and went back to report to Li Tongya. However, Li Qiuyang watched the two people waiting respectfully for Li Xuanfeng to leave. Privately, he looked quite disapproving. He frowned secretly and thought to himself:

"No wonder the population of the two families is only 20,000 or 30,000, while my Li family has grown to more than 60,000 in the past few decades. These people clearly don't regard human beings as human beings. I'm afraid they don't even supervise farming, let alone maintain people's livelihood. These two Thirty thousand people are all people who support his clan..."

"Brother Qiuyang!"

The two people came forward with smiles. The Lu family monk winked and said with a smile:

"Your senior, I'd better leave this matter to you. I'll leave first if I have something important to do."

After saying this, without waiting for Li Qiuyang's response, he crossed arms and left with a laugh, which made Li Qiuyang's eyelids twitch slightly, and he was quite angry.

"These two people are playing music night after night in this mine, and the women are sent to the house every day. They know nothing but eating, drinking and having fun. They have really wasted their cultivation! If they were placed in my Li family, even a monk would be arrested by the clan leader. Accountability is really not a thing!”

Turning around and walking towards his small courtyard, Li Qiuyang suddenly felt relieved, smiled coldly, and whispered:

"Let's have some fun. If we stay here for a few more years, I'd like to see what these two families can do to stop my Li family."

————

Li Qiuyang went back to the room to finish his instructions and started to practice cross-legged. On the other side of the large courtyard, there was the sound of feasting and drinking, and the monks from Lu An's family drank wine and talked and laughed.

"This is such a good job in the mine! You don't have to look at the face of the person in the family. Everything is handled by Li Qiuyang of the Li family. I feel so comfortable!"

"That is!"

The monk An family laughed heartily, took a sip of the spirit wine in his hand, smacked it in his mouth happily, and replied:

"Then the Li family is a nouveau riche after all. They have risen too fast, and the Qi Practitioners are too young. They actually still have mortals in their hearts. Which family in the entire Guli Road does not use mortals as objects? Only mortals serve monks, how can any monks serve mortals? considerate!"

The Lu family monk nodded, with a leisurely look on his face, and said with a smile:

"Look at the Li family. Although they are strong, they are being dragged to the west by Shan Yue, acting as a barrier for us. It is said that there are more than a dozen qi practitioners in Shan Yue, and there is also a king who is at the peak of qi training. We can't deal with them!"

Showing off the news he had obtained, the Lu family monk raised his head slightly, but heard the An family monk ask:

"But I heard that your Lu family has a high-ranking cultivator practicing in the Qingchi Sect. He is a great supporter."

The Lu family monk shook his head, looking a little depressed, and replied:

"You and I have been in-laws for many years, and we all know that that person practiced on Yuehu Peak. He was at the peak of Qi training in his early years. He failed and died when he broke through to build the foundation. It has been more than eighty years! Except for the master of Yuehu Peak within the sect. You still have a close relationship with my family, so how can you be considered a supporter elsewhere?"

After saying this, he lowered his head and said to the An family monk:

"Nothing compares to the genius you have in Anjia!"

The An family monk sighed slightly and said angrily:

"My family member really loves An Jingming very much, and allows him to use all the cultivation resources of the whole family! It is said that the rice we eat every day is spiritual rice, which makes us jealous. If my family cares about me so much, I say Maybe I can practice my Qi for a while.”

"Why."

The monk from the Lu family sighed lowly, and his expression became more depressed, which was particularly abrupt among the sounds of silk and bamboo in the courtyard. He lowered his head and said:

"You and I are over fifty years old, but we haven't even mastered the Yujing Wheel. There is no hope of practicing Qi in this life! But if we spend the remaining fifty years of our lives having a lot of fun, we will live in this world in vain!"

The An family monk was also in great mourning when he heard this. He finished drinking the wine and choked with sobs:

"Everything in life is unsatisfactory... I have long been indifferent to it."

The two of them just raised their glasses and cried to each other amidst the lingering sound of silk and bamboo, holding each other's hands and crying.
