When the five people left the island, they did not touch the magic circle there at all. Since the magic circle was still intact after such a long time, let it stay there. Maybe in the future, when a few people think of this place and come back, it can still be there. gain something.
Following Qian Chao's lead, several people found another place where there should be spiritual grass. They also found a few reasonably suitable spiritual grasses. After Yanxuan finished picking them, they were ready to leave.
However, Qian Chao was staring at this place but refused to leave.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Tang Ping asked him.
Qian Chao laughed after hearing this and said: "Oh, just in time, I can show you my stupid method of mining ore here."
Tang Ping stared at this place and looked around: "Is there any ore here again?"
"Well, there should be some here, you'll know after you give it a try."
As he spoke, Qian Chao took out many bamboo pole-like things from his storage bag. Each one was four or five feet long, but there was a wooden figure on one end of the thing. Each wooden figure had an arm to lift. Ups and downs, the other one is not carved at all, and the little wooden man can rotate freely on the bamboo pole.
Tang Ping noticed that one end of these bamboo poles was sharp and seemed to be inserted into the ground. She took one and looked at it, wondering how Qian Chao would use it.
"Is this the stupid method you mentioned?"
"Yes, this method is also effective, but it is far inferior to that of Senior Brother Zou Su's that I saw last time."
Seeing that these things were strange, several people wanted to see how Qian Chao used them to mine ore.
Qian Chao planted all the bamboo poles on the large piece of land he chose. After they were inserted, the little wooden figures on the bamboo poles could face in any direction, and all the wooden arms were hanging down.
Qian Chao walked outside these bamboo poles and saw that this area was almost included. Then he stretched out his right hand and began to perform several tricks. Then he muttered something in his mouth, and finally clenched his right hand into a fist. .
I saw that the little wooden figures on the bamboo poles all moved almost at the same time, turning in different directions. The wooden arms of each little wooden figure were also raised at the same time, pointing in different directions. They all pointed diagonally towards the ground.
Qian Chao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "It's okay. This method was taught to me by Senior Brother Cheng. I didn't prepare these things last time, so I didn't use them."
As he spoke, he casually broke off a wooden branch from the tree next to him and walked into the bamboo pole. On the ground, he drew a line along the direction pointed by the one arm of each wooden man. Whenever these lines crossed When the two lines intersected, he drew a small circle to mark the intersection of the two lines. When he finished drawing, he drew many small circles on the ground there.
Tang Ping probably understood and said: "There is a piece of ore under each small circle, right?"
Qian Chao nodded, "That's right." He put his hand on a small circle and pressed it against the ground, then nodded, and said, "Sure enough, there is."
Under his control of objects, the land in the small circle slowly rose up, and the soil began to roll up and gush out from there. Soon, a piece of ore covered with soil and the size of a wine jar emerged from there.
Yanxuan found it interesting, so he followed Qian Chao's example and put his hand in a small circle on the ground. However, her object control skills were still much worse than Qian Chao's. She seemed to be able to feel something underneath, but if she wanted to put that I can't take things out, but I can't.
Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan took a piece of ore and looked at it. They felt that this thing seemed to be no different from ordinary stones. They didn't know how Brother Qian judged that it was ore.
Tang Ping was not interested in this, but looked carefully at the wooden figures on the bamboo poles. She found that every time Qian Chao took out a piece of ore and put it away, two or three wooden figures would lower their arms. .
"You little wooden figures are so ugly. Why do they all look so sad?"
Qian Chao smiled and ignored her.
It was almost the last one. Qian Chao paused with his palm on the ground for a while and said to himself: "This piece looks quite big. Well, the quality seems to be the best too. There are a lot of things inside."
After a while, a stone that looked like a lying cow was pulled out of the ground by him.
After patting the big stone, Qian Chao said to several of his companions: "If we take this stone to Helou and sell it, we will never sell it without thirty spiritual stones."
"It's just a stone. Why is it so expensive? What good stuff is hidden inside?" Tang Ping asked him.
"There are a lot of miscellaneous things inside, mostly uncommon materials, but it will be troublesome to smelt them back." After a pause, Qian Chao said again: "I said, this is a stupid method. But most of Jiuxuan’s disciples use this trick to look for ores outside. Alas, it’s really far behind Senior Brother Zou Su’s country woman.”
"There's nothing you can do about it. Even if you can afford it, we can't go to Ruixuan Town now. Even if you can go to Ruixuan Town, you may not be able to buy that country woman. You just have to endure it for a while. Maybe you can actually get a bug like that in the future.”
After digging out the ore, it was still early in the day, so the five people prepared to search again to see if they could find another place where spiritual grass grew.
But this time they ran into some trouble.
Flying over a mountain ridge, they headed towards a place where there might be spiritual grass. However, as they were flying, they found several monks flying towards them from a distance. This was outside the sect, and besides, this time They encountered some trouble when they left the sect, so when they saw it, they immediately became alert.
However, as those people flew closer, they discovered something even weirder. It turned out to be a person running away, and several people behind him were chasing after them. Not only that, those chasing people continued to release their spiritual swords while scolding them. The cold light stabbed the person running in front of him, but the person running away was extremely fast. Whenever the spiritual sword was about to come, he could always either raise himself up or lower it down again, causing Those spiritual swords that came here always failed.
When Qian Chao and others saw these people, they didn't know why these people were chasing the person in front of them, and they didn't want to cause trouble, so they changed their direction early to avoid those people.
However, the person who escaped discovered Qian Chao and the five of them. When he saw that they were avoiding them, he said "hmm", turned around in the air, and came straight towards the direction of the five of them, at an extremely fast speed. , Not only that, there were two spiritual swords chasing behind him, one behind the other.
Li Jian saw this and his eyes turned cold. The others also panicked, not knowing what this guy was trying to do when he rushed over!
The closer the guy got to Qian Chao and the other five people, the slower he slowed down. When he got close to the five people, he suddenly straightened up and went up quickly, but the two people following behind him It was too late to change the direction of the spiritual sword.
Just listen to "ding" and "dang".
The sound of "ding" was when Li Jian saw a spiritual sword coming straight towards Yanxuan. He was so frightened that Yanxuan's face turned pale, so he ducked in front of her and stood in front of her. The green bamboo in his hand had already turned into a spiritual sword and stabbed her in the air. The incoming spirit sword was instantly knocked away.
There was a "dang" sound, but a spiritual sword pierced Lu Pingchuan's chest. When Lu Pingchuan was about to catch the sword forcefully, Qian Chao blocked the sword with his big shield.
"Ma Hu, damn you, stop it!"
As soon as he took the two swords, the people following him were already approaching.
"Junior brothers and sisters, I can't help myself just now. We are going to take action against Ma Hu."
There were four people chasing after him. One of them, an older and steady one, saw that his spirit sword had almost injured these junior brothers and sisters, so he immediately apologized as soon as he got close.
Tang Ping said: "It doesn't matter, our senior brothers' affairs have nothing to do with us, but this senior brother Ma, what you just did was a bit excessive!"
