Chapter 760: Surveying the mines (1)
Zhou bendao looked around and did not dare to argue about it. He snorted, “”Don’t use a chicken feather as an arrow!”
After he finished speaking, he entered the tent. Xia qingchen had a calm expression on his face, entering the tent without fear.
Zhou bendao ordered everyone in the tent to leave. He then took out a spatial treasure and carefully took out a box.
The brocade box contained a purple stone the size of a fingernail.
The stone was as thin as a scabbard, and it was light purple in color, emitting a faint light.
Ouyang Yan took out all kinds of appraisal tools and prepared to slowly appraise them. With her speed, she would need at least half a day to come up with a conclusion for a brand new yimo ore.
“The yimo ore is real.” Xia qingchen took a look and concluded, “”But …”
Staring at the yimo mine, Xia qingchen’s eyes narrowed slightly. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
It was obvious that he had discovered something, but it was not convenient for him to say it out loud.
“Shut up!” shut up! Zhou bendao scolded, ” don’t affect Alliance master Ouyang’s appraisal!
So what if he basked in the glory? he even shamelessly boasted that he would affect Alliance master Ouyang’s appraisal. Did he have any self-awareness?
Who knew that Alliance master Ouyang would lift his eyes and glance at Xia qingchen. “Since you’ve said so, it’s most likely true.”
From the previous gamble, Xia qingchen’s ability to distinguish between yimo ores was indeed beyond ordinary people.
“However, just in case, I’ll have to wait for half a day for confirmation.” Alliance master Ouyang picked up the tool and began to examine it.
A look of suspicion appeared in Zhou bendao’s eyes. What was Xia qingchen’s identity exactly?
Xia qingchen naturally wouldn’t waste half a day’s time here. He waited for the results of the appraisal and said, “”I’ll go to the mine to survey it first.”
Zhou bendao frowned. you can go, but keep your hands and feet clean. Don’t touch anything. Otherwise, you’ll be responsible for the damage to the mine.
Hehe!
What was there to touch in the mine?
The surface was filled with hard rocks. Could Xia qingchen really empty out the mine?
After leaving the tent, Xia qingchen headed to a corner of the mine that was controlled by the yellow heaven group under the accompaniment of Li Linlin.
On the way, Xia qingchen asked with a deeper meaning in his words, “”Zhou bendao isn’t the commander’s man, is he?”
Zhou bendao’s words didn’t have any respect for the commander.
“I’m just a cavalry Captain, how would I know about these things?” Li Lin smiled.
Xia qingchen nodded slightly.
Even general Li was so vague that it was inconvenient to explain.
From this, it could be seen that Xia qingchen’s guess was right. That Zhou bendao wasn’t the commander’s man. Most probably, the reason why he was able to become Wan Xiaoqi of the yellow heavenly group was because of the Yu family’s help.
They came to a corner of the mine.
This corner was only one-tenth of the mine that had been occupied in the past. With their movement techniques, they could complete one round in two hours.
“This is the place where the yimo ore was discovered.” Li Lin Lin pointed to a heavily guarded mine that had just been excavated. It was only two to three meters deep, and one could see the bottom with a glance.
Xia qingchen had a pensive look on his face.
“Three months ago.”
Xia qingchen’s eyes had a deep arc. “Only three months?”
There was one thing he couldn’t say in the tent just now, and that was that the yimo ore was indeed real!
However, that was an old ore that had been excavated for more than ten years.
How could an old ore appear in a brand-new mine?
It was obvious that someone had placed it there to create the news that the yimo ore had been found.
a hundred miles of land has been explored countless times, and it has been confirmed that it is very difficult to find any Yi mo ore. This time, we have found something. It is really unexpected. Li linye said.
These words were even more certain of what Xia qingchen was thinking. Someone had intentionally created false news.
“Who was the first to discover the yimo ore?” Xia qingchen asked.
Li Linlin shook his head. there’s no way to verify it. It was a mess back then. We can’t confirm who found it.
As expected!
The so-called new Yi ink mine was a complete lie.
It was a wasted trip.
Right, Xia qingchen suddenly thought of something. He immediately took out a yellowed contract from his spatial Nirvana artifact and said, “”General Li, do you know where we are?”
In the past, when he gambled with Yu Feng of the Yu family in the Guild Hall, the latter lost so much that he used the yimo mine’s contract as the wager.
In the end, it fell into Xia qingchen’s hands without any surprises.
Li Lin Lin picked up the contract and compared it with the contract. His eyes were fixed on the Northwest direction and he pointed to a small protruding Hill on the horizon.”It should be there.”
“There?” Xia qingchen was slightly astonished.
Coincidentally, the small hill was right next to the mine occupied by the Army of the zhongyun territory.
However, the hill was very small, not even one-twentieth the size of the mine.
Li Lin Lin said, ” I didn’t expect you to have a contract of ownership for the yimo mine. This kind of contract only appeared twenty years ago. Only a few big families have it.
Twenty years ago, the gate of hell opened, causing a great disaster.
The Prince of Liang had called upon the experts within his territory to deal with the demon palm that had appeared out of nowhere. One of the conditions he had promised was to enfeoff the ownership of the yimo mine.
At that time, some of the wealthy and influential guests made a move and got a part of the ownership.
By now, most of the yimo mines that had been enfeoffed had already been mined.
He didn’t expect that Xia qingchen would actually be able to take out another one.
but we’ve already explored that Hill, and so have people from the zhongyun territory. There’s no yimo ore. Li Lin said regretfully.
In fact, almost none of the people who had received the enfeoffment had successfully excavated the yimo mine.
After all, Yi mo ore was too precious. If one could get ten pieces of it after excavating an entire mine, it would be considered a high production.
For example, the mine in front of them had been occupied by the zhongyun territory for many years, but only three suspected yimo mines had been excavated.
“Let’s go and take a look first.” When Xia qingchen heard this, he had also felt that there was no hope.
However, upon closer inspection, he suddenly discovered that the nearby terrain was different.
One side of the mountain was surrounded by water, and the other three sides were surrounded by huge mountains, forming a spiritual Qi depression.
The spiritual energy from the three surrounding mountains would more or less gather at the depression.
The yimo ore had the characteristic of being born with spirit Qi.
The mine next to the hill already had Yi mo ore, so there should be more in the hill that was used as a spirit Qi depression.
It was just that the two parties ‘method of investigation was wrong and they didn’t manage to excavate it.
“Alright, don’t be disappointed.” Li Lin said helplessly.
The two of them rushed to the mountain. The spiritual Qi here was indeed exceptionally dense, about three times that of ordinary places.
The ground was full of potholes, shallow pits less than half a Zhang deep. These were left behind by the two parties when they were investigating.
“Because the mountain rocks in the nearby area are extremely hard, even a high quality Nirvana artifact would take half a year to dig a pit that is five feet deep.” Li linye said.
A hint of certainty appeared in Xia qingchen’s eyes.
The geography of this place was also the special hard ground formed by the Yi mo ore.
The spiritual Qi and the geological features were all in line. There must be a yimo mine in this mountain!
