mining area,
The old man in gray clothes led Qin Han and Li Yang deeper and deeper.
on the road,
Passed by one mining area after another,
Qin Han was slightly shocked.
I didn't expect this gold mine to be so deep.
Much bigger than expected.
The total number of workers inside is probably thousands.
The total number of guards I met was probably close to two hundred.
It's a pity that
As Li Yang said, there are very few gold mines in the mining area.
Except for the supervisor's piece, which is more than 10,000 gold coins, the rest add up to about 9,000 gold coins at most.
After walking for a while,
The temperature inside the mine seemed to have increased by nearly ten degrees.
The three finally arrived at their destination.
Mine No. 9,
This mining area is located in the deepest part of the gold mine.
There is actually a gate made of fine iron at the entrance.
It seems that this place is not like a mining area, but like a prison cell.
Although Qin Han was confused about the identity of the person 'imprisoned' inside,
But in order not to arouse suspicion, he didn't ask a word.
However, Li Yang beside him asked curiously:
"I heard from other brothers that there is a mining area sealed by an iron gate deep in the mining area. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect it really existed here."
"Manager Liu, why is this place sealed with an iron gate? Are you afraid that the people inside will escape?"
The old man in gray had an unpredictable expression, and if he had any pointers, he said:
"The No. 9 mining area imprisoned are serious criminals. These people should have been executed, but God is kind and the priest could not bear to be implicated and gave them a chance to survive."
"However, when you see what you see later, don't say anything you hear. You must treat it as if you don't know anything. Do you understand?"
The two nodded immediately.
The old man in gray clothes saw the two people walking on the road.
Nodding slightly,
I didn’t say much,
He took out the key directly from his arms and opened the lock on the iron door.
Then the old hand pulled hard, and the iron door creaked slowly open.
at the same time,
When the people in the mining area heard the noise, they immediately stopped what they were doing.
Countless eyes looked over.
There was anger, fear, unwillingness, and depression in these eyes.
Among the crowd, a strong old man with white hair and beard came forward first with wary eyes.
Seeing the old man in gray clothes and Qin Han,
The white-haired old man finally showed a smile,
"Manager Liu is here."
The old man in gray clothes heard this,
Just nodded indifferently,
Then he pointed at Qin Han and said:
"You guys go in, I'll wait outside."
After that, wait for Qin Han and the other two to walk into the door.
The old man in gray clothes actually closed the door directly.
With a click, it was actually locked.
He walked aside with an indifferent expression.
In the ninth mining area,
As the door locks,
All the miners in the mining area gathered around as if they had agreed to do so.
Staring at Qin Han closely with their angry eyes,
It seemed as if he had a deep grudge against them.
Li Yang was so frightened that he stepped back.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel? I am the bodyguard of the high priest. If you dare to mess around, you will be dead."
Even though he said so,
But the look of fear on Li Yang's face could not be concealed.
But Qin Han didn't care.
The group of people in front of me seemed to be outnumbered;
But all of them looked sallow and frail,
At first glance, it seems to be caused by long-term malnutrition.
This ragtag group of people was not taken seriously by him at all.
He looked at the white-haired old man and said straight to the point:
"We were ordered to come in to deal with the monster's cry. Take me to the place where the cry came from!"
When the old man saw this, he felt that everyone was a little rude, so he turned around and scolded,
"What are you going to do? Go back quickly and do your work."
When those people saw this, they dispersed deep into the mining area, but each of them held pickaxes and other things in their hands, and their eyes were fixed on Qin Han and the others.
It seems to choose people to devour.
Li Yang was so frightened that he shrank back again.
Cold sweat broke out.
The white-haired old man apologized:
"I'm really sorry. This group of people is like this. They don't see many outsiders, so they got a little curious. I'll take care of them later. The two guards, the shouts are from the deepest part of the ninth mining area. Follow me."
The old man said, taking the lead to walk inside,
Li Yang looked a little scared when he saw this,
He was obviously very resistant to those people deep in the mining area.
He whispered: "Brother Ma, these criminals look like they are planning something evil. It would be dangerous for us to follow them. How about we go out?"
Qin Han patted Li Yang on the shoulder,
"The task assigned by the supervisor, if we go out like this, we will definitely be in trouble."
"How about this? You stay on guard at the door. If something happens to me inside, you quickly report to Manager Liu. Don't worry, when this task is completed, the result will belong to both of us. I will never cause trouble outside. explain."
Li Yang was moved, "Brother Ma, you are so kind."
Hearing this, Qin Han showed a meaningful smile,
He took a step and followed him.
…
The ninth mining area,
Without the constraints of Li Yang,
Qin Han felt much more comfortable,
He walked quickly to the white-haired old man,
Chatting: "Old man, what exactly is that monster's cry you mentioned?"
"Is it howling or howling?"
The old man heard this,
After thinking for a moment, he said: "No, I remember it was mooing."
When Qin Han heard this, his face suddenly showed strong surprise.
Now he is 80% sure that the scream of the monster deep in the mining area is definitely that thing.
Moreover, it is still complete,
This time I will definitely make a lot of money!
The white-haired old man said: "Every time this monster screams, the walls of the ninth mining area will vibrate slightly, and sometimes, it will cause some small landslides."
"So in order to prevent the children from getting hurt, I can only ask you to come and investigate."
"Child?" Qin Han's eyes narrowed and his attention was attracted by the old man's words.
Are there any children in the mine?
As if to confirm his words,
As the two of them walked inside,
Along the way, except for those thin young people,
There are also many old, weak, women and children,
The older ones look to be seventy or eighty years old.
And the young ones, even in their infancy,
All of these people are sallow and thin,
It was meal time, but these people didn't have any food in their hands.
There was even a child who put a smooth stone in his mouth and licked it, as if he thought it would fill his stomach.
Qin Han thought to himself: "The people here don't look like prisoners, but like members of a family. These people are locked up here by the high priest. They probably have a lot of secrets hidden in them. If they are dug out, they may be useful for dealing with them in the future." The high priest helps.”
"However, the most important thing right now is to find the monster. We will talk about this when we get back."
Press your mind,
Qin Han followed the old man and walked deeper into the ninth mining area.
suddenly,
A faint mooing sound seemed to be heard deep in the mining area,
The sound was very dull,
At the same time, the surrounding mine walls seemed to be shaking slightly.
But the distance seemed a bit far away. Although the voice was familiar, it didn't sound very real.
Qin Han's feet were a little faster,
five minutes later.
In front of a mine wall.
The two stopped.
The white-haired old man touched the mine wall at the end of the mining area, "When we mined here a month ago, we heard strange screams. I felt it was unsafe and stopped advancing in this direction."
"But even if we don't dig, the strange screams are getting closer and closer as time passes."
"You heard it just now. I'm afraid the monster will break out of the wall soon."
There was deep sadness on the old man's face.
Qin Han didn't speak. He put his ear close to the mine wall and pressed it against it.
Waiting quietly.
suddenly,
Just listen to moo!
The monster roared again,
This time Qin Han heard it clearly.
Immediately overjoyed!
That's it!
It really is it!
Amethyst beast!
The legendary monster.
This beast feeds on gold mines;
I like to drill into the gold veins and eat away at the gold mines step by step.
After eating one, replace it with the next one.
As the gold mine is eaten over time, purple crystals will gradually grow on the back of the amethyst beast.
This kind of amethyst is recognized by the game's heavenly law, and one crystal can be directly broken down into one hundred thousand gold coins.
Of course, the real role of amethyst is much more precious than one hundred thousand gold coins.
In the late past life, an amethyst could even be sold for a sky-high price of nearly half a million gold coins in the heavens.
This shows the scarcity of amethyst.
When he learned about the existence of the Amethyst Beast before, Qin Han even thought that he heard wrongly.
After all, the Amethyst Beast has a very picky taste, and it really doesn't like ordinary gold mines.
The gold mine in front of us, although it is a rich mine, is nothing compared to the real big gold mines in the world.
It's incredible that this kind of gold mine can attract amethyst beasts! ! !
