Just as Yun Yu slowly moved towards the small valley, and before he could think about how to avoid those Daoists sneaking in, he suddenly saw two slight energy fluctuations flying towards the mountainside where he was.

In the direction he was going, he was heading straight for the rocky place where he was hidden. Faced with such a situation, how could Yun Yu not know that his whereabouts had been discovered by the other party.

The soul power probe was quickly released, enveloping the area around him for dozens of feet, and in an instant, he already understood the reason for being discovered.

Just twenty zhang away from the place where his figure was hidden, there was a place where a slight energy fluctuation was revealed, and it could be known without Yun Yu observing it closely, it must be a kind of formation-like existence.

This continent thought that its cultivation level was low, but it never thought that there were still monks who could refine the formation, which made Yun Yu also a little surprised.

It was precisely because of his lack of understanding that he didn't pay attention to some dead things around him, but unexpectedly, the monks in this area set up a small formation with a warning effect.

Since he was found locked by the other party, it was naturally impossible for him to show up and leave directly, so he placed the spear in his hand on the stone and hung it, sat on the stone floor, took the skin on his body, and pretended to drink water and rest.

"Hey, which clan are you from that you dare to break into the forbidden land of this mountain range alone, didn't your clan tell you that this place is a forbidden land?"

A slightly majestic voice sounded, and suddenly two old men flashed out from behind a tree not far from him, both suspended in the air.

"Ah...... Ah, the Word...... Daoist, the one who doesn't know is here, and the little one has given a salute to the two Daoist adults. ”

Suddenly hearing the voice, I saw two old men appear and come out, Yun Yu, who was sitting on the stone ground, had a sudden change in complexion, and his figure hurriedly stood up, and his mouth was stunned, and he even replied intermittently when he spoke, while bowing and saluting.

"You can even know that we are Daoists, it is enough to know that you must be the high-level identity of the big tribe, and if you tell the truth, you may be able to spare your life. ”

One of them looked Yun Yu up and down as if he was stunned, and said without the slightest anger in his words.

"Lord Huidao, I am from the Yan branch of the Yan tribe, and I went out to explore the border region this time, but I got lost with the large army and lost my way, so I came here by mistake.

I don't know what kind of forbidden place this is, and I ask the Taoist to raise his noble hand and let go of the small return clan. ”

This place is not too far from the Yan branch of the Yan clan, the largest tribe, and the people of this branch are often patrolling the border area in large groups, Yun Yu's words are not suspicious.

He already looked to be only in his twenties, but when he came, he made some preparations, dressed up, and scattered with the team patrolling the borderlands, so it was naturally possible to come here by mistake.

"Entering the area where the forbidden land is located is a capital crime, Brother Bian and a branch of people are talking nonsense, just kill them. ”

The other old man seemed to be very unkind to the ordinary tribesmen, and seemed to be very impatient with his companion's attitude of talking too much and dealing with them gently.

"Ah, no, no, Lord Daoist spare his life, the little one really doesn't know that this is the forbidden place of my Yan clan, and I also ask the two Daoist adults to see that the little one is the person of their own clan to spare this time." ”

Yun Yu suddenly heard the words of another old man, and immediately his face became bloodless, his body weakened, and he fell to the ground and sat paralyzed and cried.

"Brother Huang, have you forgotten that there are fewer miners in our Yan Jing City than there are over there, and this person is a member of the branch clan of our own clan.

He was a strong man, and it was nothing to kill a tribesman, but it was difficult to find the experienced miner, who was young, but he was not slow to move, and his force was good.

Give him a chance to survive and let him mine in the veins to make up for the mistake he made this time. Just set a mining deadline. ”

The old man surnamed Bian was a wise man, and he didn't have anything unusual about his companion's impatient words, glanced at Yun Yu, and explained in his mouth.

"Well, Brother Bian is really wise, little guy, you will follow Lord Bian's instructions to enter the mine to collect energy stones, as long as you serve in the mine for three years, you can be released back to the clan. ”

Looking at Yun Yu, who collapsed to the ground and cried out in frustration and begged for mercy, a wisp of cunning flashed in the eyes of the old man surnamed Huang, and he immediately responded.

"I, I'm willing, as long as I can spare the little one's life, the little one is willing to enter the mine immediately to collect power stones. ”

Although Yun Yu bowed his head and begged for mercy, the words and deeds of the two old men, including the slightest expression on their faces, still fell into his heart, These two people are singing with a white face and a black face.

The idea was to let Yun Yu enter the mine to collect the energy stones in the veins for them, which was also in line with Yun Yu's heart, so he immediately replied excitedly.

"Alright, you pick up your weapons and go to the mine with me and the others. The two old men easily frightened Yun Yu, a good miner, and obediently volunteered to mine, and they were also very proud in their hearts.

Without any further interrogation, Yun Yu was taken back to the small valley by two old men, and was soon numbered into the dark cave in the mountain.

The tunnel slopes downward, and the tunnel is also very wide, and at first glance it looks like a place where trailers and other large vehicles often enter and exit.

There is no luminous stone embedded in the roof of the cave and other arrangements in the tunnel, only a small lead like a vine, and the traction rope is suspended in the center of the tunnel, extending to the deep part of the tunnel.

And Yun Yu also has a small hook ribbon on his body, as long as he hooks this rope at the entrance of the cave to the thing with the lead, he can not worry about touching the cave wall halfway.

As he walked all the way down, Yun Yu found that a large number of branch tunnels were revealed from the stone wall, and the Daoist surnamed Huang who led the way did not stop, quickly passed through the entrance of the caves, and led Yun Yu into the depths.

After walking for nearly an hour, the old man surnamed Huang who entered the mountain range in the dark and lightless cave was nearly a thousand feet deep, and the old man surnamed Huang who entered with Yun Yu stopped.

I came to an extremely large cave, where there was some glowing object embedded in the wall of the cave overhead.

Let the large cave that enters the depths of the mountain range add two or three points of light, and in this cave, you can hear the sound of tinkling from time to time, and it can be seen that there are many miners working in the depths or on the edge of the cave.

"Yan An, I have brought you a new miner, or you Yan Li branch clansmen, who will stay under your subordinates for three years, so that you will have seven miners under your command.

Last month, you only handed in a total of nineteen energy stones, and this month you must reach more than twenty-five, otherwise the old man of Yan Ming Dao will not be able to say a word or two for you. ”

An old man in his fifties who was not very strong had already come to the two of them when the old man surnamed Huang and Yun Yu entered the cave, and the old man surnamed Huang nodded at him and immediately spoke.

"Thank you for taking care of the zodiac, please rest assured, Yan An will definitely urge his subordinates to speed up the collection and strive to find more power stones for this group.

However, the cause of the strange things over there has been investigated, and the zodiac is not a small person who does not do his best, but it is really ....... ”

Looking at the foreman surnamed Yan who was very respectful in front of him, Yun Yu's heart was also moved, this old man turned out to be a martial artist-level monk.

Listening to the meaning of his words, he was the leader of this cave, and there were seven people who joined the newly entered Yun Yu.

Since entering the main tunnel, the two of them have passed through the nearly 1,000 zhang deep tunnel, a total of as many as dozens of branch tunnels, according to such a cave as a group of people, if a few percent of them are also such a number of people, then there are hundreds of miners in this vein.

According to what the old man surnamed Huang said just now, a group of miners can harvest nearly 20 energy stones every month, and in a year, it is only two or three hundred, and the total amount collected by a mining team of hundreds of people is tens of thousands.

During the one-year construction period, the entire ore vein can only collect tens of thousands of energy stones, which is much inferior to the ore veins in the secular territory of the cultivation world.

Although until this time, Yun Yu had not seen the figure of Yan Ming who had reached the realm of the Great Dao, but since he heard that the old man surnamed Xiao was the owner, the ore vein here was the energy stone vein jointly held by the two major cities, and it was also the main source of income.

But such a collection volume made Yun Yu speechless to the extreme. This also shows that the energy stone veins on this continent are indeed as stated in the classics, the amount of ore is very thin, and the amount of energy stones is not rich.

"Well, it's been going on for months, but the cause hasn't been identified, and last month, something similar happened to the thirty-one cave you went up to.

It's worse than what happened on your side, so you can't use it again and again, and as long as you don't go to the westernmost hole, it won't happen again.

Yan An, you have to pay more attention, if that happens repeatedly, report it immediately. Also, the amount of the surrender can no longer be reduced on the basis of this matter. ”

As soon as the old man surnamed Huang heard Yan An's words, he knew that what happened a few months ago was the reason why their group had reduced the number of energy stones they had handed in.

Immediately spoke out and said, the meaning is very obvious, what happened in this cave has been going on for several months, and it has not happened later, so it is not possible to excuse this matter again and again, and the people above are not unwise people.

As the old man surnamed Huang spoke, his eyes were looking at the entrance of the western side of the cave that he said should not be deep, and there seemed to be a hint of discoloration in his eyes, but he quickly withdrew his gaze.

Hearing the words of the old man surnamed Huang, Yan An was suddenly silent, nodded with a slightly nervous expression, and immediately turned around with his eyes scanning to the west.

Seeing that the old man surnamed Huang finished his explanation and left the cave alone, Yan An turned around and looked at Yun Yu, and said with a cold face:
