PS: Updates have been a bit slow recently. That¡¯s because of something happening recently, not because of poor grades and lack of motivation. Every subscription, every reward, every monthly pass is my motivation. The more I write, the more motivated I will be! ! ! Ye Qing decided to take a detour, but Xiaotianjia Hailong couldn't do it. After thinking for a long time, Ye Qing gave it two ideas. The first is to ask it to find a large ship with more than seven masts, stick under the ship and sneak over. The second is to let it take advantage of the silence of the night to detour from the distant mountains and go directly to Daze Mountain to find the entrance examination point set up by the Demon God Sect. Xiao Tianjia Hailong hesitated for a long time and decided to choose the second option. ¡°Although it is a little dull, it still has enough knowledge. After humans have cultivated this miraculous river-blocking barrier, it is impossible not to send immortal cultivators to guard it. The target of the black dragon is small, and it has only grown to a body of ten meters. There are countless giant pythons in the mountains, which can compare with the black dragon. In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, people who have no way of life come to me. Black Dragon is now preparing to cross the mountains and head to Daze Mountain. The black dragon spoke earnestly to it for a long time, and before leaving, he said, "I'm going to explore the road first. If there's any danger, I'll come back and tell you." Watching the black dragon sneaking to the far shore, it dived into the dense mountain forest without a trace. Xiao Tianjia Hailong pursed his lips, his face full of grievances. For the first time, it felt that its body shape was too stupid. After landing on the shore and escaping into the depths of the mountains, the black dragon, who was here for the first time, felt a little disoriented. But this is not a big problem. Ye Qing pulled his thoughts back, spread out the map on the table, and found the location of the river blocking checkpoint in Zhongzhou County. On the map, this level only has the words Xijiang Pass. No wonder Ye Qing ignored it. With the map, Ye Qing can determine the correct direction based on the location of the black dragon. "Duh duh~ duh duh duh~" A sudden knock on the door interrupted Ye Qing's train of thought. When I opened the door, I saw the two eldest nephews were sweating. He grabbed Ye Qing and ran outside. "Why are you panicking? Wusheng Dao didn't come back." Ye Qing shook his head and followed them out to see what was going on. Qing was pulled by the two of them to the innermost part of the canyon, where a large number of craftsmen had gathered. They were standing in a big circle, pointing, with the excitement of sharks smelling blood on their faces. The location where they were watching was the innermost part of the city. A place planned to be used to build a water reservoir. When Ye Qing squeezed into the innermost part and followed their surprised gazes, he looked towards the bottom of the reservoir. His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. The pool in front of you is about one foot deep, and there is already a layer of stagnant water at the bottom of the pool. Under the stagnant water, there is a piece of emerald green and transparent jade that is difficult to look directly at. Under sunlight rendering. Under the overlapping reflections of the accumulated water, a beautiful emerald green luster is produced. The remaining disciples also came, their greedy eyes reflected in the emerald green luster. Ye Qing jumped directly to the bottom of the pool and used the treasure dagger given as a reward inside the door to cut an alexandrite from the bottom of the pool. Jumping up, Ye Qing turned sideways to block irrelevant sight, and twisted the jade in his hand. He shook slightly towards the sunshine. Through the transmission of sunlight, the emerald green luster of Youdao flows like a liquid and a mist in the cold jade. "Tch~ What did I think it was? It turned out to be jade." Ye Qing tossed the jade stone casually, with a strong sense of the world: "Dear fellow villagers, I, Ye Qing, am also from Huangyu County. Now that I have brought everyone here to work, naturally I can't trick us. Fellow villagers in Huangyu County. ¡°Now that we have found jade in the pit, am I still a human being?¡± The crowd laughed loudly and clapped their hands: ¡°Brother Ye, we have to do our jobs. If you dig out treasures from your employer¡¯s land, they will naturally belong to your employer. Brother Ye, you can reward them as much as you like. We won¡¯t say anything about it. ¡°The people who come to work here are all adults and have all the necessary social experience. . They had already guessed the true identity of Ye Qing and his group. ¡ª¡ªDisciples of the Immortal Sect! They are doing work for Xianmen. The craftsmen named Ye from Hexia Village and Xiaomiao Village can guarantee this with their lives. The Ye family in Huangyu County. The news of the appearance of three immortals has already spread like crazy. Now in Huangyu County, the Ye family walks sideways like crabs. There are dozens of craftsmen who are related to the brothers Ye Xidong and Ye Xibei. Without exception, they all became foremen and could earn an extra half a tael of silver per day. ¡° Then let alone emeralds, even if they dug out gold, they wouldn¡¯t dare to lift a finger on it. Now that Ye Qing, the biggest person in charge, wants to reward them with money, of course they are grateful. "A fellow countryman"Of course, I have to take more care of you during this time. Ye Qing pinched his chin: "These are high-grade jadeite. Look at the rings worn by the officials on the street and the bracelets worn by their wives. They are all made of this kind of jadeite." " "The jadeite in the reservoir looks as big as an ox. Although the selling price is a lot, if it is divided into the hands of 10,000 of you, there won't be much left. " "I will make the decision and give you a little more, one tael of gold each. "The men were boiling in an instant, and their chests were completely filled with something called happiness. They all kept praising Ye Qing as a good man and a living god. Many bachelors were already making plans in their hearts. When the construction period is over, How many wives do you need to be married? "Okay, okay, let's go to work. Ye Qing smiled and gave them an order: "Work hard for me. The sooner the construction period is completed, the more wages I will give you." Also, don¡¯t spread the jade incident to anyone else. I¡¯ll deduct your wages if you do. " This group of men all ran away after being beaten up, leaving behind this group of Immortal Sect disciples. As soon as the crowd dispersed, the remaining disciples immediately looked at Ye Qing with cross-eyed eyes. " Jade is like this You can only deceive those uneducated craftsmen. Under the pool, there are obviously Yuan stones that everyone dreams of. Those disciples' eyes turned red, and they tried their best to restrain their excitement. Money can't buy these treasures that have been slowly absorbed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for thousands of years. Ordinary egg-sized Yuan stones can make even the masters of Lingxu realm excited. The Yuan Stone on the surface of the earth is placed in front of these low-level disciples, how can we not make them crazy? "Okay, everyone must recognize these treasures. Ye Qing's eyes narrowed and he scanned everyone: "Don't rush to say anything else. Dig out the Yuan Stone first." " Everyone nodded in agreement. "Except for Su Xiang, Yu Luoyu, and Ye Qing, the two eldest nephews. The other disciples from other counties jumped into the pool in a swarm. They took out the daggers given by the sect and treated their own sons. They also carefully peeled away the ordinary stones around the Yuan Stone, and as they removed them bit by bit, their hearts accelerated and their blood boiled. In the end, even Huangyu County Five stood by and pretended to be cool. Everyone in the group rolled up their sleeves and jumped into the water without caring about their face. In the minds of these disciples, she had always been a goddess as pure as a snow lotus. Now, she has become a goddess. The shrewd little princess. There was a disciple next to him who scratched some skin on the Yuan Stone because of his rough movements. Yu Luoyu grabbed Yang Liu's waist and cursed, "The lowest level of cultivation here is the third level of divine power, and he split it with a sharp sword." A stubborn stone is no more difficult than splitting open a piece of rotten wood, but these disciples worked hard from noon to sunset, without even bothering to drink water or rest, before they finally peeled off the entire piece of green stone. There was a huge Yuan Stone with brilliance flowing on its surface. Everyone, including Ye Qing, had red eyes. First of all, the Yuan Stone weighed one hundred thousand kilograms. This was a wealth that could not be measured in numbers. It was no exaggeration. It is not impossible to exchange the Yuan Stone for three or five low-grade spiritual weapons. Secondly, the reason why the Yuan Stone is expensive is that it has a nickname - the Immortal Pill in the Stone. It is an extremely rare item for cultivating immortals. A rare treasure that greatly improves the speed. The Yuan Stone is a crystal that contains the vitality of heaven and earth. In addition to being used to make the Yuanchi, the purest spiritual energy of heaven and earth can also be directly absorbed by people. The green brilliance of the rough stone in front of them is almost impossible to look at directly. Even an idiot can detect it. Ye Qing and the others are certainly not idiots, so they used huge bamboo strips when digging. . The pool was covered to prevent the brilliance from being peeked from the sky. This was a high-grade Yuan Stone. With this high-grade Yuan Stone, one day was equivalent to twenty days of cultivation. Taishang Academy, which has the most abundant resources for cultivating immortals and has a royal background, cannot guarantee that the royal nobles inside will spend all day cultivating with Yuan Stone. The twenty-one disciples, including Ye Qing, stood at the bottom of the pool with their eyes locked firmly. The primeval stone in front of him could not be pulled out even by the ten giant dragons. After being silent until the end, Ye Qing spoke, "How about I go and report it to the sect?" " Ye Qing's words are simply worse than the bloody battle between the two countries, but the emperor surrendered to the enemy first and was hated by others. " Psycho, idiot, fuck me, go to hell,"?Maybe, you want to die ?If looks could kill, Ye Qing has been cut into pieces by a thousand cuts. After the test was over, Ye Qing couldn't help but clapped his hands and said word by word: "Since - since - no one wants to report to the sect. They all want to steal this Yuan Stone, then let's discuss how to steal it." "Okay. Ah, good!" The twenty disciples nodded like chickens pecking at rice. Ye Qing said in a low voice: "Who was there when the Yuan Stone was unearthed?" "I was there." Su Xiang said solemnly: "When the craftsmen just carved out a little bit of green stone, I was right next to it. At first, I thought it was jade. Let the craftsmen dig carefully. I have been watching them. No craftsman dared to hide the Yuan Stone under my nose. " "Very good!" Ye Qing gave him a look of praise: "The craftsmen, although. I told them about the jade. They couldn't leave the canyon before the construction period was over, but to be sure, we had to quickly find a piece of jade as big as a scalper to replace it and completely eliminate the curiosity of the craftsmen. It is estimated that the minimum is 10,000 taels of gold. We must also collect the 10,000 taels of gold dividends that I promised to the craftsmen. "Now tell me, how much can each person contribute at most?" The twenty disciples were silent. . Most of them come from ordinary families. They sell iron and borrow it from relatives and friends, and maybe they can get a dozen taels of gold together. The richest person in the family is naturally Su Xiang from Sujiapu. Based on his reputation for being admitted to the Giant Spirit Sect, even if he takes all the family's inventory, it won't be a big problem. But the family¡¯s inventory does not even amount to one thousand taels of gold. Seeing the silence of the twenty disciples, Ye Qing smiled in his heart. From the first moment he recognized Yuan Shi, Ye Qing was thinking about how to maximize his benefits. Now it seems that these disciples are far poorer than they thought. Ye Qing is not prepared to divide the Yuan Stone into twenty parts according to any merit. In the face of this temptation of risking one's life, merit is nothing. But if it is divided equally into twenty points and everyone else is fair, then Ye Qing will suffer a big loss. The method of absorbing Yuan Stone is similar to the method of testing the root bones during the entrance examination. Whoever has strong roots can absorb more of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Yuan Stone.
