Chapter 140: Striking the Grass and Startling the Snake

After Shi Hao revealed his identity, he walked around.

Because the spirit stone is very important, anyone entering and leaving the mining area needs to be strictly searched to ensure that no one leaves with the spirit stone, and Shi Hao is no exception.

After hundreds of years of excavation, the mine has become so devastated that if you dig it out of the ground, you will find it like a hornet's nest.

He walked through the tunnels, stretching out his hand and rubbing against the walls of the cave, which had been dug hundreds of years ago and was full of history.

After walking for a long time, the digging marks gradually became new, and if you walked a little further, you could see a miner sweating, hoe by hoe.

Shi Hao's experience did not disturb them in the slightest, these people were extremely numb, as if they had no soul.

However, these people do not deserve sympathy.

The people here are all felons sent by the three major powers, and all of them have committed the most heinous crimes.

Maybe some of them have been wronged, but they must be in the minority.

Shi Hao went to the bottom, but he didn't find the slightest, he took another fork in the road, but still didn't find anything.

Before and after, several waves of people had already come to investigate, so it was basically impossible for any miner to quietly bring out the spirit stone.

- It is possible to bring one or two pieces, but it is definitely an astonishing amount to the point where the Baiyun Sect can offer a reward of one hundred spirit stones.

According to Shi Hao's guess, there are two possibilities.

First, there are people digging from elsewhere and stealing mines.

However, the decrease in the production of spiritual stones in the mining area is not because the quantity dug up is less, but from the time it is dug out to the process of transporting it out, it is suddenly much less, then, if this is a theft, there is a secret channel to connect and leave from other exits.

Shi Hao is looking for such a secret passage, but the mining area is so big, as long as the secret passage is covered up, it is extremely difficult to find it.

Second, there are people who have spatial spiritual weapons.

It's easy to have a space spirit weapon, you can bring out a lot of spirit stones at one time, and you're not afraid of being discovered at all.

Which one is possible?

Shi Hao first searched the mine for possible secret passages, and when the day was over, he returned to the entrance of the mine and searched the miners with the overseers.

His attention was to find out if there was a spatial spiritual weapon.

It's a pity that no one has it.

Well, there is only one possibility left.

- There are hidden tunnels in the mining area.

But as I said before, the mine tunnel is as complex as a hornet's nest, and if you string it together, it may have to be hundreds or even thousands of miles, so how difficult is it to find a secret tunnel?

Moreover, even if there is an oil lamp in the mine, the brightness is only visible, but it is another thing to want to see clearly.

The point is, the secret path is just Shi Hao's guess, what if not?

After Shi Hao searched for two days, he decided to think differently.

He's looking outside.

If it's a stealing dig, there must be an exit outside.

Shi Hao began to look for it again, this nameless mountain is very large, some places are bare, some places are overgrown with trees, and the terrain is very complicated.

"What person, stop!" Shi Hao was walking when he was suddenly stopped.

In the distance, there was a camp with the banner of the White Cloud Sect.

This was set up by the Baiyun Sect to guard it, so that no one would dig a hole nearby and steal ore.

Obviously, Shi Hao is not the only one who can think of stealing.

There is more than one such camp, and people patrol the mountains every day, so it is theoretically impossible to poach.

Shi Hao took out the identity token and said, "I am a disciple of the White Cloud Sect. ”

The two guards immediately looked stunned, and hurriedly greeted them, and after carefully checking the identity token, they suddenly became respectful, and saluted: "I've seen my lord!"

Shi Hao nodded, he put away the identity token, and said, "I'm here to investigate the theft of the spirit stone, have you found anything abnormal?"

"No!" both shook their heads.

Shi Hao's heart moved, and he said, "I'm going to go to your camp to have a look." ”

"Thisβ€”" Both of them hesitated, and one of them immediately said, "Rong Xiao will go and gather with Lord Chu." ”

"Lord Chu?" Shi Hao's eyes tightened.

"Lord Chu Lingkong Chu is the person in charge here. The duo explained.

"Okay, you guys go. Shi Hao nodded.

One went to report, and the other accompanied Shi Hao, and I didn't know whether I was afraid that Shi Hao would be bored, or I would monitor him and prevent him from running around.

But after a while, I saw a middle-aged man striding over, with a slender figure and a majestic aura.

"I'm Chu Lingkong. The man nodded at Shi Hao, "You want to enter the camp?"

"Not bad. ”

"Why?" Chu Lingkong didn't say agree or refuse, but asked, "This is not a mining area, and it has nothing to do with your investigation." ”

Shi Hao smiled: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, I will decide." ”

Chu Lingkong showed a calm expression: "Could it be that you suspect me of being a prisoner and stealing myself?"

"If you don't have a ghost in your heart, it's okay for me to check it, right?" Shi Hao said lightly.

"Regardless of whether there are ghosts or not, will you let anyone and everyone come into your house for a walk?" Chu Lingkong immediately retorted.

"Okay, then I'll go back and report that you're obstructing my investigation. Shi Hao said casually, and then turned around.

"Slow!" Chu Lingkong changed his mind instead, "Since you have to investigate, okay, come in." ”

Shi Hao put his hands behind his back and walked towards the camp.

Chu Lingkong accompanied him on the side, but did not speak.

Shi Hao walked around the camp, but he seemed to be just looking around.

Eventually, they came to a very large tent.

"This is a warehouse, where all the people in the camp are fed and watered. Chu Lingkong made an introduction.

Shi Hao nodded, and was about to lift the curtain and enter.

"There's nothing to see. Chu Ling stopped in the air.

"It doesn't hurt to see. Shi Hao insisted.

"Okay. Chu Lingkong withdrew his hand.

It's huge, but most of it is full, and it looks very messy.

Shi Hao's gaze swept over, and then he walked over and went to pick up the box.

One, two, three, and soon, Shi Hao moved a third of the boxes.

"Almost. When Shi Hao wanted to continue, Chu Lingkong stretched out his hand to stop him.

Shi Hao glanced at him and said, "Okay." ”

He turned and walked out.

Chu Ling saw him off, and it wasn't until Shi Hao left that he sneered.

Shi Hao did not go far, but hid nearby, lying on a big rock, watching the sunset appear on the horizon, then darken, and then the bright moon rose, and the stars were dotted.

He didn't know if Chu Lingkong had a problem, he deliberately scared the snake before, if Chu Lingkong really had a ghost, then there would definitely be a move.

So, he's here to watch.

In the middle of the night, a figure quietly left the camp.

Really!

A sneer appeared at the corner of Shi Hao's mouth.
