Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Elder Zhong only stayed here for half a day before leaving with Zhong Shuyi.

Before leaving, he asked Zhang He for a bazooka and took it away, probably because he wanted to take it back to study imitation.

Zhang He didn't pay too much attention to this. The technical content of this thing is not high. Let an experienced refiner look at it and you can imitate it.

This kind of bazooka is heavily equipped in his Blackwater Army, and it is too easy for others to get a few samples.

The next day, He Xiaoyu set off with 100 black water soldiers to join Fat Tiger on the front line.

Although Zhang He Heishui County's sub-rudder dispatched a small number of people, but the two Jindan plus the support of the small skeleton, and 140 well-equipped foundation-building monks, the quality should be the highest among the sub-rudders.

Zhang He still stayed behind and did not go to the battle in person. There is still a lot of things to do in the newly won county seat, and he can't leave now.

In addition, there were 110 remaining black water soldiers, who were assigned to four county towns by Zhang He to lead daily affairs.

There are only twenty people in each county, which is still a bit stretched. This time, there are three more counties, which he did not expect before.

For this reason, he could only ask Shadow Pavilion to communicate and dispatch some talents from Heishui County to participate in the management of the four newly acquired counties.

These four counties have a total of eight small spiritual veins, more than 100 mu of spiritual fields, and four mineral veins.

The quality of these veins is much better than that of Blackwater County.

There is an obsidian ore vein 50 miles outside of Ningjing County. This is a fire-attribute refining material. It has a wide range of applications when refining fire-attribute instruments in the Xiuxian world.

However, because of the shortage of manpower, this obsidian mine was blown up by Jiang Weiming's spies two days ago.

After sending He Xiaoyu away today, Zhang He went to the obsidian lode to check and guide the work.

The entrance of the ore vein has completely collapsed, and a large number of miners are digging there with hoes.

Seeing Zhang He coming, a base-building cultivator in armor walked towards him.

"The third team of the Black Water Army, the fifth team, the soldier Zhu Zheng, pays a visit to the son."

This base-building cultivator was the soldier he sent here to be in charge of the mine.

"How's the situation?"

"Master Qi, there are many caves in the mine, and it will take a long time to fully resume mining.

It is said that more than 2,000 miners were trapped in the mine, and they are currently organizing people to dig a channel for rescue.

Due to the small area of ​​the entrance, the surrounding area is full of hard stones, and the exit cannot be opened in a short time. "

Zhang He remembered that it had been two days since the mine was bombed, and there were many collapses in the mine. These trapped miners must have been out of luck.

Zhang He glanced at the unhurried miners. When they dug the mine, it was estimated that they could only collect the bodies of the miners inside.

Zhu Zheng only arrived half a day earlier than Zhang He, so it is not bad to be able to organize a group of people to rescue him.

"Saving people is like putting out a fire, and sacrifice the instruments!"

Zhang He just said a word, and he has already used a flying sword to dig the soil and rocks in front of him. The efficiency of the flying sword is much faster than that of a miner using a hoe, digging a sack.

Seeing this, Zhu Zheng immediately took out his flying sword and dug it down against the soil, also digging a sack.

It's not that Zhu Zheng is too stupid, he didn't know how to use Feijian to dig before, but compared to the lives of 2,000 miners, Feijian is too expensive.

Even if the two thousand miners died, their value would be equivalent to two spiritual stones at most.

And a flying sword at the level of a magical weapon, the cheapest low-grade black iron flying sword, also requires thirty or forty spirit stones, and the high-grade copper sword equipped by the soldiers of the Black Water Army Foundation Establishment can be sold at a market price of 800 spirit stones.

Using a flying sword to dig soil and dig stones is also wear and tear, and it has to be repaired to a certain extent. A hair falling from the copper sword is also worth more than two thousand miners.

Zhang He didn't say anything about Zhu Zheng's choice to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. He could only lead by example and let him know that human life should not be measured by spirit stones, even the lowest miners.

In fact, the Black Water Army all came from the children of the lowest level of civilians.

They used to be in a similar situation to these miners, but now they have become foundation-building monks with lofty status, and their status and status are so different from ordinary miners that they have forgotten the hardships at the bottom.

The efficiency of the duo manipulating Feijian to dig soil is naturally not comparable to those of ordinary miners.

It only took half an hour to dig all the earth and rocks that had collapsed at the entrance to one side, and open the wall to open a mine entrance with a width of about 10 feet and a depth of several tens of feet.

At this time, Zhang He retracted the flying sword, even if it was his magic weapon flying sword, there were also a few tiny scratches.

A drop of water can also penetrate a stone, not to mention that if it is repeatedly chopped into the soil and stone, it still has a little wear and tear on the utensils.

This kind of scratch is usually not a problem, if it is in a fierce fight, it is easy to break from the scratch.

There were also scratches on his magic weapon. As for Zhu Zheng's magic weapon, there were even more scratches. There were even two tiny gaps, which would take at least twenty or thirty spirit stones to repair.

"Help……"

The exit of the mine was dug, and a weak cry for help was immediately heard inside.

It was very dark inside, and the light from outside could only see a distance of a few meters inside. Zhang He's consciousness swept over and found that there were only over a hundred people in front of him, most of them dead, and more than 30 still alive.

"Zhu Zheng, you organized the miners outside to help rescue, and I'll open the way inside."

"Follow your orders!"

Zhang He didn't go far into the mine, but there was another collapsed area ahead, blocking his passage.

Once again, he took out the magic weapon flying sword to dig the collapsed earth and rock in front of him. When he dug it with one sword, there was a sack of earth and rock, and then used the flying sword to transport it to the empty place.

It took about a stick of incense, he opened a passage again, and found more than 20 trapped miners in front of him.

This vein has been mined for many years. The mine tunnel is very deep and extends in all directions. Many miners are trapped in these branches of the mine tunnel.

Since obsidian is a fire attribute spiritual mineral, there are usually fire veins underground. Zhang He is getting hotter and hotter as he moves forward.

It is difficult for ordinary people to bear this kind of heat, and they can only relieve one or two by constantly pouring water into their stomachs. Even so, the lifespan of these miners is very short.

Throwing a vigorous young man into a mine usually takes three to five years to the end of his life.

Zhang He has come to this point, and it is very difficult to encounter a living hole again. He is trapped in such a high temperature underground cave, and there is no sufficient water supply. The miners here have already died from the heat.

But since he was here, Zhang He simply went inside and inspected his property.

Due to the depth of the mine, it was difficult for ordinary miners to bear it, so there were more and more obsidian on the walls of the cave along the way.

Of course, this level of heat has no effect on immortal practitioners, as long as mana is used to cast a protective shield outside the body.

After walking for another mile or so, there is no road ahead. It should be the limit of ordinary miners, and the mine ends here.

However, Zhang He saw that the obsidian mines here were more dense, and he couldn't help but become interested. He wanted to find out how many obsidian mines were in front of him.

Immediately, he used the earth escape technique to get into the hard and hot stone wall in front of him.

The temperature in the stone wall is higher, Zhang He got into it, and there is a kind of thing that treats himself as a beggar chicken and stuffs it into the stove to bake.

However, he has already discovered that the deeper he goes underground, the denser the obsidian, and the better the quality.

So he fled all the way in the direction of the dense obsidian.

He went underground for more than ten miles, and now he was full of fire obsidian in front of him, and if he grabbed it casually, it was a huge amount.

Moreover, these obsidian are of excellent quality, they are already red and purple, and it is no problem to use them to refine magic weapons.

It's just that the current temperature is unbearable even for him, the protective shield is no longer effective, and the heat seeps in through the shield.

If you cook in this way, it will be enough to simmer and roast him until the flesh is tender, and then marinate with some spices, it will definitely be delicious.

Immediately, he could only switch the mode, bring out the Five Elements Mountain, and slowly turn it on the top of his head.

Then he continued to dive in this piece of obsidian for a few more miles, and even his Five Elements Mountain magic weapon could not completely block the surrounding heat.

However, he found that the surrounding obsidian had turned half red and half purple, and there was a purple air in the red.

Zhang He used his flying sword to pick a piece and held it in his hand. The skin on his hand was sizzling, and a scorching blue smoke came out.

Divine consciousness penetrated into it, its texture is fine, and there are countless flame crystals in the middle.

This is definitely a good material for refining magic weapons.

Sweeping around, it was all this kind of material, what a huge fortune it must be!

Immediately, he slashed at the surrounding area with his flying sword, slicing off pieces of purple-red obsidian, and then put them into the space.

The clone arranged a place in the space, put a layer of jade blocks on the ground, and then put these obsidian on the jade blocks.

This kind of jade block is usually used to make jade boxes and the like.

The clones were collecting and sorting inside, while Zhang He was cutting and slashing outside, very busy.

"Crack!"

The flying sword was slashed on a piece of obsidian, and the blades were all bent.

This magic weapon flying sword was finally overwhelmed and melted in this high temperature.

Zhang He looked at the fate of this flying sword and thought that fortunately, the Five Elements Mountains were still reliable, otherwise he would have been scorched by now.

This place, unless you have a magic weapon like the Five Elements Mountain, you really can't get down.

He threw this scrapped flying sword into the space, took out another magic weapon flying sword from the storage bag, and started to chop the surrounding obsidian.

During this period of time, he killed several Jindan cultivators and harvested a few good magic weapon flying swords, which are now used as mining tools.

Zhang He, who was rejoicing for the harvest, suddenly felt empty under his feet, and his body sank into it.

Zhang He's feet seemed to be in a quagmire, sinking into it, and then he found that he had fallen into the rolling molten lava.

And these lava are still flowing rapidly, he seems to be in a turbulent lava river at the moment.

He tried to use the evacuation technique, but it was of no use in this lava river, and he had never learned lava escape.

He tried to swim, but it didn't seem to work. He had read countless books before, but he had never seen any experience of swimming in a lava river.

Struggle didn't work, and he could only let the lava flow with him, but there were too many rocks in the lava river, and he was often smashed and rolled in it, ups and downs.

I don't know how long it took, or how far he drifted in the lava. Fortunately, the Five Elements Mountain was always with him, releasing cool water to protect him from time to time.

It's just that this is also maintained by mana. The golden core in the body that exceeds the ninth rank contains mana far exceeding ordinary people, and 70% of it is also consumed at this moment.

Of course, he still has a final retreat, which is to retreat into the space.

But he couldn't hide in it for a lifetime, and eventually he had to find a way out.

Just when Zhang He was about to let his clone put himself in the space, he suddenly felt as if he was caught by something.

It feels like a branch, but in this molten river, even the magic weapon will melt, can there still be branches?

Zhang He's divine sense looked along the branch, and there was actually a tree here, rooted on the bank of the lava river. In this hot lava world, it looked so different.

The black trunk is about the size of the mouth of a bowl, and there are only a few solitary leaves on it. It is also black, and there are several red fruits like blood hanging on it.

"What kind of tree is this? Its vitality is so tenacious? Is its fire resistance so good? Or is it that the ignition point is too high?"

Zhang He looked at the tree with a question mark on his forehead. He had never heard of a tree growing in a lava river before.

It was a low-hanging branch on this tree that hung him just now.

I don't have time to think too much now, so let's go ashore first.

He grabbed the branch with his backhand, slowly climbed along the branch to the trunk of the black tree, and then used the tree to get to the shore~www.wuxiahere.com~ Until this time, he did not have the mind to look at the surrounding environment. An underground space.

In the middle is this lava river, with banks on both sides. The banks are not very wide, only about two or three feet in length.

Although standing on the river bank still feels unstoppable, it is much cooler than the lava river, and this coolness is also produced by comparison.

Except for the strange black tree on the river bank, the rest of the place was bare and barren.

However, even if the ground here is an ordinary stone, due to the long-term exposure to extremely high temperatures, it has undergone qualitative changes over the years, and it can be used as a refining material after being cut down.

Between the cracks, Zhang He also found a pure purple obsidian, which was much better than the ones he had collected earlier.

With a flying sword, he dug out this purple obsidian, and found two more around.

But now Zhang He is more interested in the dark tree on the shore.

The temperature on this tree is extremely high. He climbed over from this tree just now. He tried his best to urge the Five Elements Mountain to protect himself, but he was still almost roasted.

The most intuitive feeling is that the temperature of this tree is higher than that of the lava river.

Zhang He is now tired and tired, and he is not able to provoke this tree for the time being.

He shrunk the Five Elements Mountain to about a foot, and sat on the Five Elements Mountain with one buttocks, and then took out a pot of spiritual spring water from the space.

"Gu dong gu dong gu dong..."

After filling a stomach of spiritual spring water, I felt a little more comfortable.
