nChapter 760: Surveying the mines (1)

nTranslator: 549690339

nThe independent heavenly group, which was personally led by the commander, actually doubted the commander.

nZhou bendao looked around and did not dare to argue about it. He snorted, “”Don’t use a chicken feather as an arrow!”

nAfter he finished speaking, he entered the tent. Xia qingchen had a calm expression on his face, entering the tent without fear.

nZhou bendao ordered everyone in the tent to leave. He then took out a spatial treasure and carefully took out a box.

nThe brocade box contained a purple stone the size of a fingernail.

nThe stone was as thin as a scabbard, and it was light purple in color, emitting a faint light.

nOuyang 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.

n“The yimo ore is real.” Xia qingchen took a look and concluded, “”But …”

nStaring at the yimo mine, Xia qingchen’s eyes narrowed slightly. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated.

nIt was obvious that he had discovered something, but it was not convenient for him to say it out loud.

n“Shut up!” shut up! Zhou bendao scolded, ” don’t affect Alliance master Ouyang’s appraisal!

nSo 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?

nWho knew that Alliance master Ouyang would lift his eyes and glance at Xia qingchen. “Since you’ve said so, it’s most likely true.”

nFrom the previous gamble, Xia qingchen’s ability to distinguish between yimo ores was indeed beyond ordinary people.

n“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.

nA look of suspicion appeared in Zhou bendao’s eyes. What was Xia qingchen’s identity exactly?

nXia 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.”

nZhou 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.

nHehe!

nWhat was there to touch in the mine?

nThe surface was filled with hard rocks. Could Xia qingchen really empty out the mine?

nAfter 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.

nOn the way, Xia qingchen asked with a deeper meaning in his words, “”Zhou bendao isn’t the commander’s man, is he?”

nZhou bendao’s words didn’t have any respect for the commander.

n“I’m just a cavalry Captain, how would I know about these things?” Li Lin smiled.

nXia qingchen nodded slightly.

nEven general Li was so vague that it was inconvenient to explain.

nFrom 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.

nThey came to a corner of the mine.

nThis 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.

n“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.

nXia qingchen had a pensive look on his face.

n“Three months ago.”

nXia qingchen’s eyes had a deep arc. “Only three months?”

nThere was one thing he couldn’t say in the tent just now, and that was that the yimo ore was indeed real!

nHowever, that was an old ore that had been excavated for more than ten years.

nHow could an old ore appear in a brand-new mine?

nIt was obvious that someone had placed it there to create the news that the yimo ore had been found.

na 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.

nThese words were even more certain of what Xia qingchen was thinking. Someone had intentionally created false news.

n“Who was the first to discover the yimo ore?” Xia qingchen asked.

nLi Linlin shook his head. there’s no way to verify it. It was a mess back then. We can’t confirm who found it.

nAs expected!

nThe so-called new Yi ink mine was a complete lie.

nIt was a wasted trip.

nRight, 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?”

nIn 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.

nIn the end, it fell into Xia qingchen’s hands without any surprises.

nLi 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.”

n“There?” Xia qingchen was slightly astonished.

nCoincidentally, the small hill was right next to the mine occupied by the Army of the zhongyun territory.

nHowever, the hill was very small, not even one-twentieth the size of the mine.

nLi 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.

nTwenty years ago, the gate of hell opened, causing a great disaster.

nThe 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.

nAt that time, some of the wealthy and influential guests made a move and got a part of the ownership.

nBy now, most of the yimo mines that had been enfeoffed had already been mined.

nHe didn’t expect that Xia qingchen would actually be able to take out another one.

nbut we’ve already explored that Hill, and so have people from the zhongyun territory. There’s no yimo ore. Li Lin said regretfully.

nIn fact, almost none of the people who had received the enfeoffment had successfully excavated the yimo mine.

nAfter 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.

nFor 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.

n“Let’s go and take a look first.” When Xia qingchen heard this, he had also felt that there was no hope.

nHowever, upon closer inspection, he suddenly discovered that the nearby terrain was different.

nOne side of the mountain was surrounded by water, and the other three sides were surrounded by huge mountains, forming a spiritual Qi depression.

nThe spiritual energy from the three surrounding mountains would more or less gather at the depression.

nThe yimo ore had the characteristic of being born with spirit Qi.

nThe 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.

nIt was just that the two parties ‘method of investigation was wrong and they didn’t manage to excavate it.

n“Alright, don’t be disappointed.” Li Lin said helplessly.

nThe two of them rushed to the mountain. The spiritual Qi here was indeed exceptionally dense, about three times that of ordinary places.

nThe 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.

n“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.

nA hint of certainty appeared in Xia qingchen’s eyes.

nThe geography of this place was also the special hard ground formed by the Yi mo ore.

nThe spiritual Qi and the geological features were all in line. There must be a yimo mine in this mountain!
