    Chapter 29, The Secret of the Mine

    Different from the joy of Sikong Wu's improvement in strength, the entire fine iron mine soldiers were immersed in a solemn atmosphere, and they slept with a blind eye. The spies and blue-eyed harriers who traveled between the fine iron mines and Black Corner City were all  There are more.

    According to the spies' reports, the bandit coalition's movement towards the fine iron mines this time is probably serious. The number of bandits is obviously much larger than originally estimated, more than three thousand, and many of them emit  The soldiers have a unique chilling atmosphere, and the team also has some large siege equipment!

    "It's just that the bandits sent many martial arts masters to clear the way. Many of the spies on the Black Corner City side have been eliminated by the other side. The remaining ones dare not get too close to the bandit coalition, and they have obtained very little information.

    Lei Meng and Qiu Pojun felt heavy after hearing the news. The new recruits to the bandits were probably soldiers from the Blue Moon Empire. Although these soldiers were not as strong as the bandits individually, they had rich combat experience, especially in attacking.  City experience, coupled with large-scale siege equipment, is more difficult to deal with than the bandit coalition.

    When did they arrive in Buning County? Heijiaohou received no news at all. He had obviously been prepared for this. For this reason, Heijiaohou did not care so much and sent people to Xuanwu City and the border army overnight to request them.  Send troops to help.

    Lei Meng had fought with Sikong Ba and the Blue Moon Empire's army, and he knew how powerful the opponent was, especially their siege vehicles. Some key parts had been refined by the soul power of the Imperial Martial Emperor's Martial Saint, and their power was astonishing and could be projected.  Iron balls weighing thousands of kilograms can easily blow up city gates and collapse city walls. Once they are hit head-on by these iron balls, even the strongest Emperor Wu may not be able to withstand them!

    If there are really soldiers of the Blue Moon Empire hidden among these bandits, those siege equipment are also obtained from the Blue Moon Empire. With the simple walls of the fine iron mine and the few crossbows, they will definitely not be able to support many  For a long time, the only hope was that Xuanwu City and the border army received the news and immediately sent troops to arrive before the fall of Jingtie Mine and Black Corner City.

    Hearing what Lei Meng said to him, Sikong Wu shook his head decisively and said: "That's why I can't leave. I brought these Qin Tiancheng soldiers out. No matter what, I have to take them back!"

    It turns out that Lei Meng was afraid that Sikong Wu would be in danger if he stayed in the fine iron mine, so he came to ask Sikong Wu to leave first.

    Seeing Lei Meng and wanting to say something else, Sikong Wu added: "Now that the bandit coalition is attacking, they may have already sent people to lurk nearby. Once I leave, they may come to attract the bandits.  , it is more unsafe than staying here. I believe that there are border troops over there in Xuanwu City who know that the soldiers of the Blue Moon Empire disguised themselves as bandits and captured Black Corner City, and they will definitely send troops and horses to eliminate them immediately. "

    Sikong Wu sighed: "Once Black Corner City is broken, our Qin Tian City will not be stable. Now we have to help Black Corner defend the enemy. We hope to kill the bandits as much as possible so that they will not dare to covet our Qin Tian City."

    Lei Meng was very cunning and had naturally thought about this. Originally, he planned to let Sikong Wu disguise himself as an ordinary scout soldier and leave, which would not attract the attention of the bandits. But now that he saw Sikong Wu being so determined, he could only shake his head and thought to himself what would happen if Sikong Wu was so determined.  The Yijing Iron Mine was destroyed, so I just risked my life to protect the young Marquis and leave.

    What Sikong Wu didn¡¯t expect was that not long after Lei Meng left, Qiu Lianshan and Ren Zizhen came hand in hand.  At this juncture, the city walls are being reinforced outside, and materials such as wood and rolling stones are being prepared to defend the city. The two most important people in Black Horn City coming together in the fine iron mines naturally have something important to do.

    Qiu Lianshan didn't say anything polite to Sikong Wu. As soon as he sat down, he said to Sikong Wu with a solemn face: "Brother Sikong, this time the bandits attacked, there were even soldiers from the Blue Moon Empire mixed in with them, armed with siege equipment, fine  I'm afraid the iron mine is difficult to defend."

    Sikong Wu smiled and said: "Why did brother Qiu say this? Doesn't it shake the morale of the army? Even if the bandit coalition has troops from the Blue Moon Empire, they only have three thousand people. A fine iron mine alone may be able to capture it.  But there is Black Horn City watching behind you, so how dare you devote all your troops to attack the city!"

    Qiu Lianshan smiled bitterly: "Although I say this, if the Blue Moon Empire dares to attack the city with bandits, it naturally has its own support. We can't find out the truth, so we have to think about the worst."

    He paused for a moment. In fact, he didn't want to come to Sikong Wu. None of them thought that Sikong Wu would come to Black Corner City in person. In order to let Qin Tiancheng's soldiers go to the fine iron mines, Qiu Pojun had no choice but to contact Sikong Wu.  Wu Ye is invited to come here, otherwise it would not be appropriate to leave Sikong Wu alone in Black Corner City.

    In the event that Sikong Wu died in the fine iron mine, no matter what happened, whether there was any fault on the part of Black Corner City, based on Sikong Ba's doting on Sikong Wu, we can only identify one thing, that is, the only son was because of Black Corner City's relationship with the bandits.  If he loses his life, the thunder will definitely be furious, and he may come back from the northern border soon and bring Qin Tiancheng's soldiers and horses to crush Black Horn City.

      Qiu Pojun is very aware of the power of Sikong Ba, the ninth-grade peak Martial Emperor. Even ten ordinary eighth-grade Martial Emperors are no match for him, and he is just an ordinary eighth-grade Martial Emperor. If Sikong Ba insists on taking revenge on him,  , even if you don't lead the troops, sneaking into Black Corner City secretly can cause chaos in Black Corner City, and maybe even Qiu Pojun's own life will be in danger!

    Therefore, when Qiu Lianshan came to the Jing Iron Mine, Qiu Pojun secretly told him to pay attention to Sikong Wu's safety. That's why Qiu Lianshan and Ren Zizhen came to find Sikong Wu at this time.

    In the fine iron mine, Qiu Pojun holds a secret, a secret that only the core figures of Black Corner City know. The miners who originally discovered this secret have all been "accidentally" killed in a mining accident in the mine.

    Qiu Lianshan paused and looked at Ren Zizhen. If it weren't for an emergency, he really didn't want to reveal this secret to Sikong Wu. However, if he could bring Sikong Ba in, he might be able to find out the secret as soon as possible.  Get benefits.

    He thought about the words and said: "If the fine iron mine is really destroyed, even if we withdraw from this place, we are afraid that we will be chased by bandits. Therefore, Uncle Ren and I have discussed that once the situation is critical, we will lead some  Manpower enters the mine and uses the terrain of the mine to resist the bandits until reinforcements arrive."

    Sikong Wu frowned. He had been to the mines these days. Although there were many tunnels, it was impossible to resist the invasion of bandits just by relying on the terrain. The terrain of these mines was more conducive to the bandits' personal strength.

    "Wouldn't it be more dangerous to be blocked by bandits in a mine? The bandits will definitely be able to find the miners in the mine to lead the way"

    Qiu Lianshan shook his head and said: "Brother Sikong doesn't know something. A year ago, we accidentally excavated an ancient tomb in the mine. It was huge and extremely solid, as if it was dug out of a large piece of blue steel. This secret  Very few people know about it, and the mine where the ancient tomb was discovered is also sealed. As long as we enter the ancient tomb, it will be difficult for the bandits to find us."

    "To take a step back, even if the bandits know that the ancient tomb is easy to defend but difficult to attack, with Uncle Ren and Mr. Lei guarding it, it will not be easy for the bandits to break in." Qiu Lianshan explained.

    Ren Zizhen on the side also smiled and said: "Actually, if the bandits really discover the ancient tomb, they might be able to suffer a heavy blow. We lost a lot of people in the ancient tomb before we could explore a small area of ??the outer tomb.  , but the inner tomb is always inaccessible.¡±

    Sikong Wu was very surprised, he didn¡¯t expect that there was an ancient tomb in this fine iron mine.

    On Earth, ancient tombs are basically synonymous with mystery, wealth and danger. I don¡¯t know how many tomb robbers have become rich because of ancient tombs, and how many tomb robbers have died unknown to the poisonous gas of the ancient tombs. They don¡¯t know the world.  What the ancient tombs look like, but we can know from Ren Zizhen's words that they are definitely thousands of times more dangerous than the ancient tombs on Earth.

    "Why are you not allowed to enter?" Sikong Wu asked casually.  Even with the strength of the Black Horn Lord and the power of the Black Horn City, this ancient tomb cannot be broken open. There is definitely something weird about it.

    Ren Zizhen smiled bitterly and said: "We did find the entrance to the inner tomb, but there were two demon corpses guarding the entrance. I don't know whether the owner of the ancient tomb arranged the entrance to the inner tomb in advance, or whether the corpses buried in the ancient tomb absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.  The two demon corpses were transformed into demon corpses. These two demon corpses were extremely advanced and powerful. They were not inferior to the eighth-grade Martial Emperor. The Marquis was afraid that there would be unnecessary casualties in a forced attack. At the same time, he did not know whether there were more powerful monsters in the ancient tomb.  It¡¯s the spirit that sealed the ancient tomb.¡±

    Ren Zizhen did not tell the soldiers and armors on the two monster corpses. They were just ordinary generals and guards. According to estimates, with the status of such generals and guards, it is impossible to be buried in such a large tomb. It is conceivable that the guardians  The real owner of the ancient tomb, the spirit shu, is definitely a more powerful demon corpse or a powerful mechanism. This is why the black horn prince has been unable to make up his mind to attack the ancient tomb. Instead, he consults the classics, hoping to find out the identity of the owner of the ancient tomb.  Make arrangements.

    Sikong Wu¡¯s eyes lit up: ¡°You two mean that if the bandits discover the ancient tomb, you will lead them to the monster corpse and let them fight with the monster corpse?¡±

    Qiu Lianshan smiled and said: "That's exactly what I meant. However, it would be best if the bandit alliance did not discover the existence of the ancient tomb. After all, this ancient tomb does not seem to have been damaged by anyone. The ordinary gold and silver property inside it, if there are any martial arts books,  Precious elixirs that can help in cultivation, or powerful Horcruxes, are the things we martial artists dream of."

    Sikong Wu can naturally understand Qiu Lianshan's mood. These treasures are hard to come by. He has the magic of stealing the sky and changing the sun from the fox demon and the yellow sheep horn. Once he masters these magic and soul weapons, his strength will definitely increase a lot. In addition,  , the jade pendant obtained from His Highness Zhenhai, worn on the body to practice exercises, also has unexpected benefits, and the ancient tomb is the most likely place for these treasures and ancient profound exercises to appear!
