Chapter 414 Crystal ore veins

At the beginning, Ling Xiao was also a little hesitant. When Mao Qi said that the crystal ore vein belonged to the Ouyang family, Ling Xiao's first reaction was that there was a fraud here! Because after Ling Xiao came out of seclusion, he also heard a lot of things about the Ouyang family wanting him in the tavern along the way. It is said that the high reward made many strong people excited. Could this Mao Qi recognize him and pretend to invite him?

But after thinking about it, I felt it was impossible. Although Mao Qi's strength was OK, it can be seen that his status in the Ouyang family was not very high. Even if the Ouyang family had his own portrait, his appearance had changed greatly from the beginning. Moreover, as a cultivator, others had no way to judge Ling Xiao's aura. If Ling Xiao was willing, he could completely change his own aura and simulate many different holy-level powerful men.

Therefore, even if someone can recognize Ling Xiao, he will not be at Mao Qi's level.

The most dangerous place is the safest place!

Ling Xiao thought to himself that in the holy realm, there was no good place for him. The holy realm was too big, and he had no way to find Gongsun Huang or Dragon Emperor Augustus. Besides, Ling Xiao was not the kind of person who liked to live under someone else's roof, so after thinking about it, Ling Xiao felt that he would follow Mao Qi to take a look. After all, this crystal ore vein is one of the most important resources in the holy realm! He could still take the opportunity to recuperate for a while. I believe that the Ouyang family would not have thought that he would be lurking in their lair, right?

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile happily at the corner of his mouth.

Mao Qi took good care of Ling Xiao along the way, and was very generous in food, clothing, housing and transportation. No matter what Mao Qi's original intention was, Ling Xiao still had a good impression of him.

When they came out there, they were thrillingly escaping. When they returned, they were so relaxed and freehand, delicious and delicious. The two of them didn't even use any martial arts to fly in the sky. Instead, they booked a luxurious and comfortable carriage. Although they were not as luxurious as the Nangong Miss's frame, Ling Xiao was also satisfied.

No need to escape, enter the enemy's hinterland with a swagger. Is there anything more fun than this?

After more than 20,000 miles, the two of them actually walked on the road for more than a month. In Mao Qi's words, this time they were a little hurry because they were in a hurry to hire people there. They usually can't get there without two months.

The Ouyang family's crystal stone ore vein is still thousands of miles away from the Ouyang family's family. For real strong people, this distance is nothing.

When he got closer, Ling Xiao felt that the Ouyang family's supervision of this place was so strict!

Not to mention three steps, one stand, five steps, one sentry, almost nothing was different. Mao Qi's carriage was sent out outside the valley, and the two of them had hiked hundreds of miles. Within this hundred miles, they had experienced at least a dozen Minggangs, and Ling Xiao also felt seven or eight hidden whistles. Then he entered a huge basin!

It is not so much a basin, but rather a square box! The four walls are steep and five or six thousand meters high!

The diameter of the basin is more than ten kilometers. Ling Xiao looked at it and saw a cave with a diameter of more than ten meters above the rock wall opposite, and under the cave, there was a long iron ladder embedded on the cliff and hanging to the ground.

In other words, if you want to enter that cave, you must climb up from this iron ladder and also climb down when you come out. If you are a person with no strength at all, it will be a bit dangerous!

At the bottom of the basin, close to the cave, there are several rows of houses, and people are walking back and forth inside.

This is where I will stay in the future?

Seeing that Ling Xiao seemed to be frightened by the strict sentry along the way, Mao Qi comforted him: "Xiao Hei, don't be afraid. Actually, it's nothing. This is the lifeline of the Ouyang family. Naturally, it must be stricter. As long as you do things here peacefully, no one should be afraid. With Brother Seven, I will protect you! Although Brother Seven, I am very ordinary, I am still an insider of the Ouyang family. Ordinary people always want to give me this face!"

Ling Xiao nodded and said, "How many people are there here?"

Mao Qiyi slapped his forehead and said, "Look at me, I forgot about this. I will tell you now. I will save you from not understanding the rules. There are about 300 people in our mine! There is a big manager in it! That person is a bit... Anyway, it has nothing to do with you. Just don't provoke him. He is also a relative of the Ouyang family, with a similar identity to me, but he is a first-level sword god than me!"

Ling Xiao noticed that when Mao Qi said this, his tone was a little sour, as if he was disdainful, but he didn't dare to say it too much.

Mao Qi continued: "He is the highest person in charge here. Apart from him, you little managers, there were originally more than twenty little managers, and one person was responsible for more than a dozen people, but... Now there are only ten people left, so a little manager is responsible for more than thirty miners. It's not tired to look at them, don't be lazy, and don't hide your personal belongs! This is your job. There are holidays every year, and you are allowed to go out for a few days. Hey, then, I will pick you up and take you to open your eyes!"

When Mao Qi spoke, his tone was a bit lewd. Ling Xiao felt a little moved and he understood what was going on. Unexpectedly, this kind of thing would happen in this holy realm. But I think it is understandable that there are people in the world, and there are various needs, and various occupations will arise due to these needs.

It seems... this holy realm is not much different from my cultivation world back then! There are also many people in the cultivation world who basically give up their cultivation due to their talent and other reasons. Gradually, they become ordinary people and have interactions with cultivators. However, as time goes by, they gradually become people in two worlds living under the sky.

Ling Xiao heard what Mao said in seven chapters. It seemed that the Ouyang family had more than this mine cave. It should be like this. A huge crystal vein would stretch for a long time. It was normal for other mines. I just didn’t know how much the crystal vein had been mined by them. If it was about to dry up, even if it was obtained, it would be useless.

Ling Xiao thought to himself and followed Mao Qi.

Mao Qi took Ling Xiao and came to the most luxurious building in the house. Before he could reach the door, he saw a middle-aged fat man coming out of it. As soon as he walked, he made a thumping sound. The ground trembled slightly, and the flesh on his body shook back and forth like waves.

The fat man's eyes squeezed into a crack, and two rays of light shot out. He looked at Ling Xiao before greeting Mao Qi: "Brother Qi is back? Is this?" His voice was loud, and he sounded like a generous person.

Mao Qi said with a sincere smile on his face, "Manager Sun, this is Xiao Hei. I have recruited a new supervisor. There are four crystal stones every year. How about it? Is this young man good?"

"Just call me brother, brother Qi doesn't have to be so polite."

The fat man named Sun, who heard Mao Qi take the initiative to say Ling Xiao’s reward, showed a clear smile on his face, and then said, “No, very good. We are short of people here. The head of the family came yesterday. You have to come back one day earlier and see it with your own eyes.”

When Mao Qi heard the head of the family come, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. He did not escape Ling Xiao's eyes. The two of them threw Ling Xiao outside and asked Ling Xiao to get familiar with the environment. Ling Xiao sat outside, pretending to rest, and his soul quietly left his body. Following Mao Qi, neither of them noticed it.

Mao Qi was indeed a little tricky when he asked Manager Sun. Manager Sun deliberately mentioned the head of the family just to make Mao Qi afraid, because the small manager here is paid six low-grade crystals every year! However, this rule was set by the above. Most of the small managers below were four or five yuan, and they were strictly prohibited from communicating with each other. Once discovered, they would be severely punished.

The rest naturally fell into the pockets of Manager Sun, Mao Qi and others. Whoever brought in was the one who belonged to him. Manager Sun had just mentioned the head of the family, and the purpose was to get a share of the pie.

Mao Qi was a little helpless. His status was slightly worse than Manager Sun, so he could only agree to give Manager Sun a crystal every two years. If Xiao Hei had any accident... Then the crystals that belonged to him would be added to him by two or one, and the family would be half!

However, Mao Qi had a good impression of Ling Xiao and specially instructed Manager Sun not to let Xiao Hei have any accidents.

When Ling Xiao heard this, he basically concluded that there must be many unknown things in the Ouyang family's crystal mine! The biggest custodian who robbed himself should be this manager Sun. Mao Qi must have known the information and benefited from it.

Ling Xiao's soul quietly withdrew. Under Manager Sun's extremely obese appearance, there was a huge energy hidden. Ling Xiao clearly felt that Manager Sun was very agile, but it was just a few crystals. As long as it was not involved in frameing himself, it had nothing to do with him!

In the following days, Ling Xiao stayed quietly in this almost isolated place. In this valley, there were many powerful god-level men with strength that were stronger than the Sword Saint. Although he knew their existence, Ling Xiao had never seen these people before.

Even Manager Sun rarely stayed here after meeting Ling Xiao when he came and then showed up for Ling Xiao's territorial scope. He should have something else to do.

So, on the surface, Ling Xiao and the others in this valley are the supreme leaders!
