After walking for about a mile, the road began to fork ahead.
Yu Zhuke leaned down, picked up some stones from each of the two paths, and compared them carefully.
"The stones here are slipperier and rounder. It should be a tunnel from a long time ago. Let's go that way."
The two of them continued to move forward, and gradually there were more and more forked roads. Each time, Yu Zhuke followed the same method and identified them.
I don't know how far I have walked, and there is a fork in the road again.
This time Yu Zhuke didn't even squat down. He pointed to a fork in the road and said, "The rocks here are obviously freshly cut, probably in the past few days."
He looked serious, but his eyes were shining with excitement.
There is no doubt that someone is mining here, and they must have dug up something, otherwise it would not continue to this day.
As for who is digging, the answer is clear, best wishes!
What needs to be understood now is, what is the Zhu family digging for here?
"It can't be minerals such as Xuantie and Red Thunder Iron that are allowed to be mined by the sect. Otherwise, there is no need for the Zhu family to be so sneaky."
Yu Zhuke first eliminated a lot of common minerals.
Besides, these mines are distributed over a large area, and there won’t be just one solitary mine.
The two of them went through the minerals that the sect was strictly prohibited from exploiting privately in their minds, and they soon had the answer!
"Fire flame crystal copper cannot be in a place like this..."
"The cold golden sand is only produced in Shazhou and Hanzhou..."
"There must be large copper mines around the Millennium Copper Spirit..."
"..."
"None of the above are possible, the only real possibility is..."
Yu Zhuke looked at his mother and softly uttered three words: "Empty - Ming - Stone!"
Kong Ming Stone!
This is the spiritual material that the sect has been trying its best to acquire. If a Kongming Stone mine is discovered and reported to the sect, the sect contribution points obtained will be enough to push Yu Zhuke to the realm of Zifu!
Yu Zhuke couldn't help but breathe quickly, and he was slightly nervous in his excitement, so he quietly distanced himself from his grandmother.
"Don't worry! I won't compete with you for this credit." Seeing Yu Zhuke's little thoughts, Mammy said disdainfully: "I have already left the sect, and those contributions are useless to me. What is yours is yours. .”
"As for the Zhao family, I will fight for the rewards I deserve."
Mammy said frankly, and Yu Zhuke smiled: "Senior Sister is an upright person, and Yu Shan has always been convinced. In this matter, Yu Shan is the only one who is following the lead."
"But it's just speculation now. We still need to find evidence." He continued.
"That's natural." Nanny chuckled. Their eyes intertwined in the darkness, revealing a tacit smile.
How to find evidence? The characteristic of Kongming Stone is that it is hidden deep in the heart of the stone and cannot be distinguished from the outside.
Therefore, if you want to find evidence, you must mine a large amount of stones here, put them into storage bags first, and then open them one by one to search when you go back.
This is a bit like Yang Zhen's gambling stone in her previous life. You don't know whether it is jade or stones until you cut it open.
In this case, no one knows how many Kongming stones are hidden in the stones you bring back. If you are lucky, there may be more than ten.
You only need to hand over a piece as evidence, and the rest is your harvest.
Both of these two people have eaten wild food outside, so they don't know the key to it.
They stopped talking, each took out a sword that was not commonly used, chose a place, activated their magic power, and started digging.
The inner walls of the cave are not all stones. Most of them are stones mixed with soil. They only need to dig out these stones.
Stones that are too small are thrown aside. The larger the whole stone, the more valuable it is. However, if it exceeds the size of the millstone, it is useless. The Kongming Stone is rarely found inside such a large stone.
As veteran foundation-building monks, the two of them came well-prepared today and both brought more than one storage bag. After a while, Senior Sister He Jing, who was more advanced in cultivation, was the first to finish filling a storage bag.
Just when she took out the second storage bag, there was a faint vibration outside, and both of them stopped and listened intently.
Suddenly, a series of shrill whistles came from Yu Zhuke's arms.
"It's Xiao Shitou, he's calling the police." He said in a deep voice.
"Let's go out!" Grandma suggested immediately.
"This..." Yu Zhuke hesitated for a moment: "With Senior Sister's cultivation level, I can handle any mistress in Shuyang County. Senior Sister, please go out first. I'll finish pretending and come right away."
He has only filled half of the storage bag now, and he is really unwilling to do so.
Mammy stared at him for a while.
"Whatever you want!" She said coldly and left in a hurry without looking back.
Chief Yu breathed a sigh of relief. He almost changed his mind when he was made uncomfortable by Senior Sister He Jing just now.
Now, since the senior sister is gone, naturally he can't come here in vain. He will never get off work without filling three storage bags!
He didn't know that deep in the darkness, a person was hiding his breath and listening intently to what was going on here. When Zhang Hejing left, he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"It will be much easier if there is only one person." In the darkness, the man smiled quietly, his smile cold and cruel.
…
Outside the dense forest, by the pool
Mammy held the Still Water Sword in her hand, her fingers trembling slightly, and a trace of blood flowed out quietly from the corner of her mouth.
She took a deep breath to calm her chaotic breathing.
Looking coldly at the scribe in front of her, she shouted sternly: "Who are you! Why are you here in Zifu?"
The scribe did not answer, but looked up at the other side of the dense forest: "Is there another person who hasn't come out?"
"Did you know there are two of us?" Grandma was even more surprised, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger. This man came prepared, it's dangerous tonight!
"There are three of you," the scribe pointed to the burnt grass: "There is also a doll, which has been burned to death!"
"Did you kill Xiao Shitou?" Mammy said angrily: "You are from the Zi family, and you kill a child with no cultivation, how shameless!"
"Shameless?" The scribe sneered coldly: "You, Zhang Hejing, come from a well-known sect and have extorted a small family over and over again, with more than 10,000 spirit stones in total. You are very upright!"
"The Zhu family asked for it at that time. If they behaved upright, how could they be deceived by me?" Mammy said with a smile.
She suddenly shouted sharply: "Zhu Baitu, when did you become the Zifu? Your Zhu family is a small family, how can you get the spiritual creatures from heaven and earth for you to be promoted to the Zifu!"
"No need to worry about Fairy Jing!" Zhu Baitu laughed and struck out with a sudden palm!
At the same time, a sharp thorn of consciousness secretly hit the nanny!
Once a monk enters the Zi Mansion, his soul will be several times stronger, and the intensity of his consciousness attack will also be enhanced several times!
This is why Zi Mansion often crushes Foundation Establishment.
Even if the magic power is several times worse, as long as you deal with it carefully and avoid the real and attack the weak, you can still fight with the strong.
However, the attack of spiritual consciousness is silent and invisible, and it is impossible to prevent it, so it can only be a head-on collision.
Zhu Baitu believes that with his two-pronged approach, Fairy He Jing, who is quite famous in the sect, will fall here today!
