After the conversation, Qiu Shuyu led Tang to rob Zhang Taixu up the mountain.

The stone sect had already arranged a rich lunch for Tang and Zhang in the sect and entertained them attentively.

After three rounds of wine, Tang Jie gradually learned about some local conditions.

There were originally three Xiuxian sects around yongsui mountain. However, since the discovery of the mineral vein, the stone sect has become strong and gradually suppressed the other two sects, and one of them was simply forced out of here. However, with the depletion of mineral veins, the good days of the stone sect are coming to an end.

At the banquet, Qiu Shuyu said that this was even more sad and said to Tang Jie: "The stone sect has really gained a lot of benefits by relying on this ore vein these years. But in order to protect the ore vein, it has also offended many villains. In those years, the Yuhua sect wanted to steal the ore. our stone sect fought three battles with them, killing and injuring countless disciples. Even I myself suffered heavy losses, so I can guard the mine. The heart of our stone sect moon washing sect can be learned from the world!"

The Yuhua sect was forced away by the stone sect. Tang Jie knew that the stone sect had indeed fought with the Yuhua sect for several times. It was hard to say whether it was for guarding the mine. From the actual situation, it was more like competing for control of yongsui mountain.

As far as the moon washing sect is concerned, it's the same for everyone to guard the mine. Anyway, they only need to give them 80% of the profits. Even if the Yuhua sect really takes the mine, it only takes the share of the stone sect, which gives them great courage and dare not wipe out the share of the moon washing sect. Therefore, even if the stone sect fights for guarding the mine, it doesn't fight for the moon washing sect, it's for themselves. Qiu Shuyu's just a token Show loyalty and take the opportunity to ask for price.

Sure enough, Qiu Shuyu said, "but recently I heard that the Yuhua sect has a murderous heart and has been waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. Now the mineral veins are running out, I'm afraid it's difficult for the Shimen sect to maintain its current family business, and it's bound to shrink. I'm afraid these thieves will take advantage of it."

He said with a sigh on his face.

Tang Jie was amused and said, "the defeated general is not brave enough. I don't think he is the opponent of the stone sect. Leader Qiu is too modest."

But it was the word wind that could not be caught by Qiu Shuyu.

When Qiu Shuyu saw that the other party was unmoved, he could only smile awkwardly and stop talking.

After a while, Tang Jie wiped his mouth and said, "I've eaten. Let's get down to business. Please teach me to go to the mine cave."

Qiu Shuyu hurriedly said, "young master, why are you in a hurry? It's not too late to play in our stone sect for a few days before you go to see it."

Tang Jie shook his head: "no, I have something to do. I'd better finish it today."

He stood up.

Qiu Shuyu saw that he was resolute and could only agree. Before leaving, Qiu Shuyu stuffed a mustard bag into Tang Jie. Tang Jie opened it and saw that it was full of spirit stones. The estimated value was no less than 100000.

Tang Jie smiled, but returned the mustard bag again.

Qiu Shuyu hurriedly said, "this is just a little intention of the stone sect. It has no intention of buying."

Tang Jie just shook his head firmly. Qiu Shuyu could only take it back, so he took him to the ore vein.

Lingshi ore vein is located in Baile peak of yongsui mountain, only five miles away from Shimen peak. Qiu Shuyu, Tang Jie and others flew all the way to the mine cave and soon saw that the ore vein was crowded from a distance.

Qiu Shuyu was about to fall there, but Tang Jie said with a smile, "don't disturb them in a hurry. I'll see what happens first."

When Qiu Shuyu heard what he said, he could only nod and agree. The people fell far away and walked close.

The gate of the mine is always the busiest place.

A middle-aged scribe with three skimmed moustaches was sitting behind a book case. In front of the case, there were a long line of miners in ragged clothes and holding mining picks, including some teenagers in their teens.

Everyone is still carrying a basket. The miners take out pieces of jade stones of different sizes from the basket, which are spiritual stones. These are only original stones and need to be polished and processed before they can be used. Nevertheless, through the thin stone clothes, you can still feel the energy fluctuations contained in them.

The miners handed the raw stone to the middle-aged scribe, and someone came forward to weigh it.

"Twenty four catties of inferior ore and one catty of middle grade ore can get two and nine cents of silver." the middle-aged scholar said and counted out some copper coins and gave them to each other.

The miner cried discontentedly, "this medium-quality one obviously has two kilograms. How can it become one kilogram?"

The middle-aged scribe hummed coldly, "shut up, useless things. If you make any noise, you'll get out!"

Lingshi mine also has quality. According to the standards set by the six schools, it is divided into the top, middle and bottom four grades. This is also the standard for ore collection. Among them, the lower grade mine is the cheapest. Only one silver is given for every ten kilograms of raw stone, the middle grade ore is five money, the top grade is three Liang, and the top grade is twenty Liang.

In the cultivation world, about a piece of inferior spirit stone can be produced from ten kilograms of inferior raw stone. The price of a piece of inferior spirit stone is about 200 Lingqian. Even if the black market price is not considered, the conversion ratio is one to two thousand.

This is the difference between practitioners and mortals. Between immortals and mortals, the former always exploits the labor force of the latter.

Looking for spiritual mines is extremely tiring and dangerous. The mine is never safe. There are always hidden risks. Even practitioners will often encounter unpredictable disasters when they enter. That's why they leave mining to ordinary people. For most poor people, mining is dangerous, but the income is not low. If you are lucky, you may get rid of poverty by getting one or two good mines Bitter fate, so they are willing to take risks to go to the mine, but even so, they will also be exploited from all aspects.

The middle-aged scribe's deduction is on the one hand, and the foreman's deduction in the mine is also indispensable.

Under normal working conditions, it is not a problem for miners to get five money and silver a day, but three deductions and two deductions often leave only two or three money.

At this moment, the miner knew that he had no choice but to leave angrily. The miner was followed by a young man, who also carried the mine basket, came to the scribe's case and poured out the mine basket, but many raw stones rolled out.

I can't see that the boy is thin and weak. There are a lot of mines dug out.

The scribe saw that it was an unprecedented smile: "residual marks, today's harvest is OK."

The boy just looked at the scribe coldly and didn't speak.

The scribe's face suddenly sank down. The person weighing next to him had not spoken. The middle-aged scribe said, "give me ten kilograms of inferior goods and one silver."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar.

Even if the young man poured out the original stone, he could find that it was at least more than 30 kilograms, and two of them had special luster and were obviously medium varieties. They were all wiped out by the middle-aged scribe. Only 10 kilograms of inferior stones were counted, which was so black that it could not be further added.

The miners behind said angrily, "this simply doesn't give people a way to live."

"Who says you can't give people a way to live?" the middle-aged scribe snorted coldly: "A penny of silver is enough for his brother and sister to eat and drink for at least three days. Offending childe Jin, there are not many people who could have lived until now. Xi residual scar, you'd better go back and think about it. Send your sister to childe Jin as soon as possible, and things will turn around. Otherwise, I can collect your mine with a penny of silver today, and I may not even give you a penny of silver tomorrow!"

The young man just looked at the middle-aged scholar coldly and said, "Wu heixin, you're dreaming."

"What are you talking about?" the middle-aged scholar was furious at the words.

He has always been greedy for ink when he was in charge of the ore collection in this vein. He didn't know how much money the black miners had earned. He had long been known as a black hearted scholar, but no one dared to say him face to face. Unexpectedly, he was called out by the young man. He was angry and wanted to teach the boy a lesson. However, he remembered the young man's reputation. He knew that he was brave and was not afraid of death. He had fought with the foremen when he was in the mine cave Now, those foremen who specialize in exploitation are not willing to provoke him, and they are the least to search him. That's why they can hand over more ore every time.

I'm too close to this boy now. I really want to fight against myself, and bear it again.

The middle-aged scribe thought and glared at him. The young man had left with his silver.

Seeing that the boy was far away, the middle-aged scribe shouted, "you waste people are blind? Don't you see that boy abusing me? Don't you take him down!"

Several big men with round waist and thick arms behind him have rushed at the boy at the same time.

The young man named Xi residual mark turned around and ran. Several thugs saw that he wanted to run and catch up more closely. Just as he was about to catch up, the young man suddenly flashed and grabbed an iron pillar beside him. His body whirled in the air and was kicking a strong man in the face.

This roundabout kick was very powerful and knocked the strong man down directly to the ground.

The boy fell to the ground lightly, turned around and ran again. Suddenly he grabbed a small stone platform next to him, threw it back and hit another strong man's feet. There were only two of the four strong men pursued, but the obstruction also put the boy in danger.

A strong man first caught the boy and said with a grim smile, "good boy, look where you're going this time!"

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw the young man turn around and a two dragon snatched the bead and poked it in his eyes. This time, it was urgent and cruel. It was a posture to dig out his eyes. The painful man covered his eyes and shouted wildly, stopped and stepped back.

At the same time, another strong man had punched the boy behind his back.

The young man stumbled and fell out by the strong man, and his mouth was bleeding. The black skin strong man hugged the young man with open arms. His arms were like iron hoops. He couldn't move any more and kept tightening. It seemed that he was going to strangle the young man.

The two strong men who had been accepted also came up here. They looked so angry that they almost tore the boy to pieces. Just then, a flash of brilliance suddenly flashed over the boy. At the same time, the strong man's arms around him had been stretched out. At the same time, the boy flew up his legs and kicked them. Another pair of flying feet knocked them down, hit their heads behind and hit them Hit the bridge of the nose of the strong man who held him, and the painful man wailed and covered his face.

All four people were caught in the face. At this moment, they covered their faces together, and they were stunned.

At this time, the young man went back to the middle-aged scholar and said coldly, "Wu heixin, before Prince Jin kills me, in fact, I can kill you first. So..."

He waved to the scribe. The middle-aged scribe trembled and offered the embezzled silver again.

The boy looked at the silver, nodded with satisfaction and said, "for your sake of collecting the ore, I won't knock you out."

"What?" the middle-aged scribe was stunned. The boy had hit the middle-aged scribe on the stomach, and his face was deformed with pain.

Wu Wenshi twisted his face and said, "you... Hello..."

He hissed, "guard, guard!"

Several miners have gone to push the boy: "residual mark, go, you hit Wu heixin is a crime, and the iron guard for protecting the mine is coming."

The boy nodded and ran away.

At the mouth of the mine, two black armour puppets have appeared, which are the Xuanjia soldiers of the moon washing sect.

Along with the Xuanjia soldiers, a disciple of the stone sect also appeared. When he saw the young man, he snorted coldly, "it's you again. You can really make trouble."

With a wave of his hand, the two Xuanjia soldiers had chased the boy.

Seeing this, the young man turned and ran. His speed was incomparable. For a moment, the two Xuanjia soldiers couldn't catch up with him.

The stone sect disciple was getting impatient in his eyes. He took out a big sword without a blade, pinched the seal method and pointed to the young man, "go!"

The big sword shrieked in the air and hurried after it.

Although the sword has no edge, it has a powerful momentum. Once it is hit, even a stone can be smashed into powder. The boy will never live.

The young man was also surprised when he saw this, but he couldn't escape. He was about to die under the sword. Suddenly, a flower and a figure appeared in front of him.

A hand appeared across the sword. It was strong and calm. The sword drum sounded unwilling, but it couldn't get rid of the entanglement of that hand.

The boy narrowly escaped death and was lying on the ground panting.

Then I found a young man standing in front of him, smiling at himself.

"What a brave man!" the disciple of the stone sect was very angry when he saw someone destroy his spell casting.

Just about to come forward to teach a lesson, he saw several more people appear. The first one looked at the stone gate disciple dumbfounded on the spot.

He first rubbed his eyes to make sure he was right. Then he pushed Jinshan down to the ground like a jade pillar and shouted, "disciple Chu Junyu has seen the palm teacher, the second uncle, the third master and the fourth uncle!"

The call shocked everyone around.

It was the leader of the stone sect who arrived in person?

For those mortals, Qiu Shuyu's respect for such a school is no different from the existence of God.

The next moment I heard a sound of hula, and everyone was already kneeling down.

Then there were two bangs.

But the two puppets were still chasing the boy. They were beaten by the Tang Dynasty. By the way, they closed the control array of Xuanjia soldiers so that they could not move. Then they said, "remember to stop what should be stopped before kneeling next time."

Chu Junyu blushed and said angrily, "who are you, how dare you..."

"Shut up!" Qiu Shuyu denounced, "this is the envoy of the washing moon. Tang robbed the son of Tang. He's not polite yet."

"Moon washing envoy?" Chu Junyu was startled and hurriedly said to Tang Jie, "I've seen childe Tang."

Tang Jieshi ran came over and said, "don't be polite. It seems that you are still very busy."

Chu Junyu hurriedly said, "no, it's really that these troublemakers love to make trouble too much. They know to make trouble all day. If there is no thunder, they are prone to repeated."

Tang Jie nodded: "if there is no thunder, I agree with this repeatedly. The more people there are, the easier it is to make trouble. It's true."

Chu Junyu was overjoyed to hear him agree with his words.

"But..."

This just made Chu Junyu's heart fall to the bottom of the valley immediately.

Tang Jie youyou said, "is it really the way to solve the problem, regardless of green and red, right and wrong, regardless of the root cause?"

Chu Junyu and the middle-aged scholar were already trembling with fear. Tang Jie clearly meant that the middle-aged scholar was the root of the problem.

Sure enough, some active miners shouted one after another: "yes, it's Wu heixin who exploits us every day and scrapes the ground three feet. It's extremely unscrupulous."

Wu heixin was shocked and thought it was bad. He was about to ask for mercy, but Tang Jie raised his hand: "I'm not Lord Qingtian. I'm not here to investigate the lives of miners. You don't have to shout to me if you have any grievances."

As soon as these words came out, the people were cool again. On the contrary, Wu heixin was relieved. Even Qiu Shuyu couldn't help praising Tang's robbery and his lack of authority.

In fact, the matter of detaining miners exists everywhere, and it may not be strange here.

There will be moths in the storehouse of rice; A full warehouse will produce rats.

As far as the upper school of the immortal family is concerned, the lower people are not honest. It is inevitable to be greedy for ink. In that case, it is better to find the useful one than the one who is not greedy, not to mention the wonderful use at the critical moment.

Wu Xiucai is flexible and easy to use. He doesn't forget to offer it every year, so he has been used now.

Although Tang Jie is not responsible for the affairs here, Qiu Shuyu will certainly not protect Wu Xiucai and offend Tang Jie for a mortal, but he must despise his excessive justice in his heart.

Tang Jie didn't do that now. Qiu Shuyu greatly liked him.

"But..." unexpectedly, Tang Jie added these three words in a long tone.

Wu heixin was surprised when he said this. Even Qiu Shuyu couldn't help laughing bitterly. Can't you talk well if you miss you? Can you stop panting so much?

Tang jieji said: "anyway, the miners are also the gentle heart to govern their children and are protected by our moon washing sect. If the people live too poor, doesn't it also appear that our moon washing sect is incompetent?"

As soon as the big hat came out, everyone turned pale together.

Tang Jie has said: "moreover, there must be many greedy boys. If you send someone to check, you will find that your family is very rich..."

He didn't go on. Qiu Shuyu understood what he meant and said with a laugh: "what childe Tang said is that he sometimes has to give an explanation to the people. I'll appoint another person to take the post of mine collector later. As for this person, I'll check how many benefits he got and forfeit him."

Then he lowered his voice and said, "young master, I must thank you for your great contribution to our school's discovery of corruption."

He has stretched out three fingers. After copying Wu Xiucai's home, 30% of the benefits go to Tang Jie.

Tang Jie smiled and didn't speak.

This time, he accepted the money impolitely.

Wu Xiucai's face changed greatly: "master Qiu, you can't!"

Although he has reaped many benefits for the stone sect in recent years, a considerable part has been given to the stone sect and Zhang Taixu. Now Qiu Shuyu wants to collect it all for him, which is tantamount to making him confess his whole sin.

But he didn't know that in the eyes of the stone sect, he was like a pig. He could be slaughtered when he was fattened. Most of the benefits from the mine will be handed over to the moon washing sect to harvest the benefits from Wu Xiucai, but they can go to themselves.

In this regard, he Wu Xiucai is a useful tool. Through his upward greed for ink and downward absorption of marrow, the stone sect can get a lot of additional benefits, but at best, he will be accused of lax supervision, and will not be regarded by the moon washing sect as the due contribution of greed for ink.

The arrival of Tang robbery just made Wu Xiucai unlucky earlier. Without him, the pig would have to be killed sooner or later.

Wu Xiucai was dealt with at this moment. Tang Jie came to a group of miners and said loudly, "I, Tang Jie, came to explore the mine cave under the order of the moon washing sect. I need a guide. Here I understand the situation of the mine cave and stand up. If I perform well, I can get a reward of 100 liang of tattooed silver."

As soon as these words came out, many people were moved and said that they could be guides. Previously, the young man also stood up. He was right next to Tang Jie, so it was convenient to speak. He said directly, "no one in this mine is more familiar with me, but you have to use me as a guide. I have a condition."

Tang Jie looked at the young man: "I just saved you. Will you talk to me about terms?"

The young man's face turned red: "I don't want your money, so I want you to promise me one thing. There are many branches in this mine cave, and there are many crises. No one can be more familiar with it than me. If you don't believe it, ask them who has mined the most here in recent years!"

If he said you asked them if I was the most familiar, most of the miners would shout that I was no worse than you, but he shouted who mined the most, and all the miners were dumb immediately. Obviously, no one can compare with teenagers in this matter.

Tang Jie nodded: "it sounds like you really have two skills. What do you want?"

The young man bravely said, "the young master of the Jin family has a crush on my sister and wants to take her as a concubine. You must be a great man. I want you to help me deal with the Jin family."

Tang Jie looked back and asked loudly, "who is the Jin family?"

Zhang Taixu replied, "there is a mortal family in this area. There are many shops in the nearby town. He has raised some thugs, including a spiritual master. He is also a famous local bully."

Although this last sentence is a bit of icing on the cake, it is aimed at the needs of Tang robbery.

Tang Jie nodded, turned to the boy and said, "I can only guarantee that he won't get your sister. In addition, you have to promise me a condition."

The two men made terms with each other to the point that they were addicted.

The boy asked, "what conditions?"

Tang Jie took the young man aside and whispered in his ear, "let you open the treasure or secret script of the jade door."

As soon as he said this, the young man's face changed greatly. He immediately realized that he had been besieged by the four strong men, and was seen by the man in front of him. If you let people know that he can practice, I'm afraid it will be ruthless robbery and murder. At the thought of this, Tang Jie's face is full of fear.

Tang Jie still looked at him with a smile, as if telling him that he would not take his baby, but would exchange.

The boy made up his mind and finally said, "then I have to add a condition."

This is really adding conditions and adding flowers.

Tang Jie asked, "what?"

"Teach me to cultivate immortals."

"It's not difficult, but it also depends on the value of things. The higher the value, the more I can do for you."

The boy slipped a thing into Tang Jie's hand.

As soon as he got it, Tang Jie's mind was cold and asked, "where did you get it?"

"In the mine," replied the boy, "but only I know where that place is."

Tang Jie nodded and quietly put away his things: "I'm responsible for the cultivation of Taoism."

"What about the Kim family?"

"There won't be any more gold houses."
