Seeing that it was about to be completed, Sima Ling'er's clear voice came: "Zhou Yang, what are you doing?"
Zhou Yang was so frightened that he hurriedly put the remaining yellow grass into the storage bag, then stood up and said: "Miss, I am bathing in the sun."
"Come here." Sima Ling'er waved.
"Yes, miss."
"Look over there!"
Zhou Yang looked in the direction pointed by Sima Ling'er and saw small black dots coming in and out in the distance, as well as large cars. He couldn't help blurting out: "It's the mine slaves! There are cultivators, they Which sect is he from?"
"Those mineral veins should belong to the Three Saints Sect." Ling'er looked over.
"Oh. How many years have you three factions mined the Lingshi Mine in Cangshou Mountain?" Zhou Yang asked curiously.
"Fifty years. The veins are getting smaller and smaller. It is estimated that they will be exhausted in another twenty years." Ling'er shook her head.
"I heard that this vein is divided into rich ore and poor ore. There should be a lot of rich ore here, right?"
"The mining has been completed long ago, and what is left is poor ore. The three factions have been fighting for this mineral vein for decades, and it was only in recent years that it stabilized."
"People die for money, and birds die for food." Zhou Yang sighed.
"Haha, aren't you greedy for money?" Seeing his appearance, Ling'er found it funny and began to tease him.
"Of course, who doesn't like spiritual stones! It's best if there are spiritual herbs and elixirs here for me to collect, and I can exchange them for spiritual stone flowers when I go back." Zhou Yang said it as a matter of course.
"Haha, why didn't you tell me to give you a spiritual stone mine for you to mine?" Ling'er curled her lips.
"Hey, if you dare to give it to me, I dare to ask for it." Zhou Yang laughed.
"miser!"
"This subordinate is just a small casual cultivator. Unlike the young lady who was born rich and has never worried about cultivation, yet I still have to run around all day for spiritual stones!" Zhou Yang said innocently.
"You serve as my guard, and I will pay you spiritual stones." Ling'er rolled her eyes at him.
"That's very kind of you. Thank you very much, Miss." Zhou Yang chuckled and saluted Ling'er solemnly, but the look was a bit funny.
"Huh, you're not a big man, but you look like an old profiteer!" Sima Ling'er was very disdainful. She fiddled with her long hair and suddenly said: "Actually, the richest person in Anping City is Tongzhou Trading Company. They His financial resources are as much as those of our two sects combined.”
"Really? How can Tongzhou Commercial Bank earn spiritual stones so much?" Zhou Yang also knew that Tongzhou Commercial Bank was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so wealthy.
"Their auction house is the largest among the ten nearby cities. There is a large auction every month and a small auction every ten days. This alone makes the business house a lot of money. And they also control several Mortal countries have a lot of resources and slaves, and it can be said that they are making money every day, and our two sects cannot compare."
"Look, it's better to have a spiritual stone! Without the spiritual stone, how could Shopkeeper Meng Da achieve such a high level of cultivation? With the spiritual stone, anything can be done. Without wealth, there is no foundation for cultivation." Speaking of the spiritual stone. , Zhou Yang couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
"What you said makes some sense." Sima Ling'er was no longer surprised by Zhou Yang's money obsession, but she deeply agreed with his last sentence.
"It's so boring, come play with me!" Sima Ling'er raised her foot and kicked a pebble away, saying out of boredom.
"What are you playing for?" Zhou Yang came forward. Both are minors and are interested in playing with nature.
"How about we make some gestures?" Sima Ling'er rolled her eyes and stared at Zhou Yang.
"You are a young lady, I wouldn't dare." Zhou Yang shrank his neck and lost all interest.
"Here we go again, just pretend! You don't think of me as a lady in your heart. You just show your face all day long, as if someone owes you a lot of spiritual stones. Stop talking nonsense, let's compare notes." Ling'er quit.
"Of course I treat you as a lady!"
"Stop talking nonsense, are you going to fight or not?"
"Okay. But it hurts, so don't cry!"
"Look at the punch!"
"It hasn't started yet!"
The girl seemed weak, but she was really unhesitating when she moved her hands. She swung her pink fist and hit her head on as fast as lightning.
Zhou Yang was caught off guard and was hit in the left eye socket. Thanks to his subconscious move and Sima Ling'er's fist, Zhou Yang's eyes immediately turned blue and black, and he could not open his left eye.
Zhou Yang became anxious, yelled and punched back.
Sima Ling'er chuckled, her figure flashing like a gust of wind.
The two of them come and go, fighting together.
As soon as they made a move, the guard in the distance wanted to step forward, but Sima Ling'er glared at him and backed away angrily.
The two did not use weapons. They started fighting with fists and kicks, and later used Yuan Li.
They were both at the peak of Kaiyuan cultivation. Sima Ling'er practiced high-level skills and struck first, always beating Zhou Yang. But Zhou Yang had rich experience in actual combat and was very strong, so he was not at a disadvantage for a while.
In a fierce battle, there was no distinction between men and women. Zhou Yang would inevitably touch Sima Ling'er's body. Sima Ling'er was outgoing and didn't care.
There was nothing else in the area, but Zhou Yang swept his fist across her chest and touched the full part. Sima Ling'er's face turned red and she hurriedly stepped aside. She shouted angrily, "Get out of here and stop fighting!"
Zhou Yang was stunned and realized that he had touched something he shouldn't have touched. He smiled awkwardly and stepped aside wisely, but said in his heart: "It's really troublesome to fight with a woman. You can't touch this or that, it's boring!"
However, Sima Ling'er gained the upper hand and even gave Zhou Yang a black eye. He was having fun, but he didn't take what happened just now to heart. She straightened her clothes, said something to go back, called Qinglang, and rushed down the peak in a hurry, followed closely by the four guards.
Zhou Yang scratched his head, mounted the green wolf, and followed closely.
The area they were in was between the mineral veins of the three major sects. No high-level monsters appeared, and the journey went smoothly.
Ling'er had a great time, shouting and yelling from time to time, which frightened Green Wolf to the point where he was at a loss.
Back at the palace, Sima Gu was not there. Ling'er then had people bring wine and food, and asked Zhou Yang to drink with him.
Zhou Yang rubbed his blue eyes and thought to himself: "It seems that this girl was controlled too tightly by her father. Once she was let out, she went crazy. Not only did she go out casually, but she even drank. She completely ignored everyone's ladylike demeanor. ." Having said that, Zhou Yang is also a good drinker. With good wine and delicious food and the company of beautiful women, why not do it!
The two of them exchanged glasses in Ling'er's room, drinking very enthusiastically. Sima Ling'er's alcohol capacity was limited, and after a few drinks his tongue became enlarged. He patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder and said drunkenly: "Little Yangzi!"
Zhou Yang felt a little awkward when he heard this. "Little Yangzi" was reserved for Master Zhong and Tiehu only. This yellow-haired girl also called him Little Yangzi, which sounded weird. But there is no way, who makes me the eldest lady!
"You, you know, I am the happiest today, someone finally dares to fight with me! You don't know how boring it is in the sect. My father found three masters for me, and I spent the whole day either practicing or reading, oh , so annoying. My three masters are more rigid than my father. They don't let me do this or that. I'm so young, I don't even have a friend. My father is busy all day long and has no time to talk to me. Little Yangzi, you, you are better than my father."
Zhou Yang listened to Sima Ling'er's complaint. The last sentence compared him to her father, which made him a little dumbfounded.
Sima Ling'er was chattering there, which made Zhou Yang's head spin, so he had to deal with it hummingly, keeping his head down and drinking.
After a while, there was suddenly no sound. Zhou Yang raised his head and saw that Ling'er had fallen asleep on the table.
"Only for this amount, why don't you and I have a drinking contest!" Zhou Yang curled his lips.
Maybe Sima Ling'er got too hot from drinking, so her clothes involuntarily opened a little, revealing her snow-white and slender neck, with a small patch of white flowers under her neck. Her head was resting on her jade arm, and her bright red mouth was still opening and closing.
Zhou Yang felt that he had a lot of experience, but he had never seen a drunken beauty. The girl's unique youthful breath penetrated his nose from time to time.
As the saying goes, "The romantic tea makes peace, and the wine is the matchmaker of sex." Zhou Yang drank a lot of wine, and at this time he was a little confused and infatuated. He stared at Ling'er's beautiful appearance, and instinctively wanted to stretch out his claws.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw Ling'er's arm waving unconsciously and her pink little mouth mumbling something unknown.
Zhou Yang was startled and quickly retracted his hand.
He was not drunk to begin with, but now he was so frightened that he became even more sober. He knew in his heart that she was a eldest lady, and that she was not something that he, a young casual cultivator, would dare to covet.
"I call you a pervert!" He raised his hand and patted his cheek gently, then shook his head vigorously to get rid of those dirty thoughts from his mind.
After a while, seeing Ling'er sleeping deeply, Zhou Yang did not dare to help her at will, so he found some clothes in the room, swallowed hard and put it on her, and then exited the room.
Zhou Yang returned to his room, shook his head again, put aside the charming scene just now, made a pot of tea, and drank by himself.
"We still need rock grass, colorless ore and wild boar blood. These three things should be available in Cangshou Mountain, but currently we don't have freedom and can't come in and out at will. This is a problem. However, you can go out with the lady, but there are still a group of guards. It's an eyesore, and I don't dare to search blatantly. No, I have to find a way to encourage Sima Ling'er to go out hunting, preferably to hunt wild boars. When it comes to fun, this girl will definitely be happy. However, with that annoying old guy here, It's quite troublesome." Zhou Yang frowned.
Sima Gu has always disliked him. Once he is no longer by Ling'er's side, this old guy may not know how to deal with him. There is no other way, he can only add his tail to become a human being.
They will definitely not be able to return to the city in the short term. They have to find a way to inform Tiehu and the others. They also have to ask Sima Ling'er for help.
At the same time, Sima Gu was asking questions in a secret room outside the mine.
"What's going on in the mine lately?"
"It's quite calm. It's just that my nephew is confused. Elder Fu was in charge of the mine before and managed it in an orderly manner. Why was he suddenly transferred back?" A man in black stood opposite Sima Gu and replied respectfully.
