Chapter 99: The Good Show Begins(1/2)
On the outskirts of Ziyuan Mine, Lin Yansheng and Chen Xuehuang had just finished mining and were sitting on a large purple stone to rest, counting the harvest along the way.
Because of the spiritual tide, a large amount of ore was washed out along with the vitality wave, which greatly increased the amount available for them to mine in the entire Ziyuan mine.
In addition, most of the washed-out ores are distributed in shallower ground, and many are even directly exposed. The mining efficiency of the two people can be said to be extremely high.
"Including the newly found ones... we have found almost more than 700 points of ore. Among them, we found two pieces of ore with a purity of 60%. How do you think? Are you satisfied?"
Lin Yansheng held a small wooden stick and fiddled with the basket containing the ore, and smiled and told what they had gained in the past half hour.
"Already have more than 700 points? Not bad, your efficiency is really not bad."
Chen Xuehuang raised her red lips slightly and smiled sweetly, obviously very satisfied with what they had gained along the way.
At the same time, she was also secretly surprised. If this continues, if they find some more high-grade ores, when the spiritual tide ends, they may be able to directly gain five or six thousand points!
Although there is a spiritual tide here, this number is still extremely exaggerated. Chen Xuehuang even thought that even if those senior earth masters came here, their harvest would be nothing more than this, right?
The seemingly ordinary young man in front of me is hiding something very deep!
Compared to Chen Xuehuang's surprise, Lin Shengsheng seemed much calmer about this number. When the ore was not buried deep and he had the vision of the spirit beads, he could really just pick it up casually...
But no matter what, it was a happy thing to have such a harvest. For a while, the two people, who were both in good moods, started to laugh and talk during their break.
"Speaking of which, why did Wu Tong offend you before and make you want to ignore him so much?"
While chatting, Lin Yansheng looked at Chen Xuehuang's face as white as jade and asked with some doubts.
After getting along with each other for the past few days, Lin Yansheng had some understanding of Chen Xuehuang. He knew that she should belong to the kind of arrogant girl who is cute on the outside and warm on the inside. Although she has an extraordinary background, she has never shown any condescension to others.
The attitude is still very easy to get along with.
But even if Chen Xuehuang is like this, why is he so unfavorable to Wu Tong?
Hearing this, Chen Xuehuang was silent for a moment and said lightly: "You misunderstood, Wu Tong...has never offended me. On the contrary, he and I have known each other since childhood. To be honest, we still have a lot of friendship.
"
"Oh? But you don't seem to want to pay attention to him..."
Lin Yansheng was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding Chen Xuehuang's thoughts.
"I've been friends with him for a long time, but in the past two years, he seems to have other ideas about me... He even went so far as to invite the elders of Prince Hong's Mansion to speak out. Oh, it's true..."
"But for the time being, I just want to regard him as my brother and friend. In order to give him some time to calm down, I have no choice but to avoid him."
Chen Xuehuang shook her head when she said this, obviously having some headaches about the relationship between Wu Tong and her.
Lin Yansheng said "Oh". Although Chen Xuehuang didn't explain it clearly, he roughly knew what happened.
Wu Tong has always had an admiration for Chen Xuehuang, but unfortunately, Prince Xiang has his heart, and the goddess Wu Meng, Chen Xuehuang has no intention of doing so. Because of their friendship, and because he doesn't want to do anything that hurts his feelings, he can only do his best.
Keep a distance from him and let him retreat when he sees the difficulties.
But now it seems that the young prince Wu Tong is still quite persistent...
Huh? Wait!
If Wu Tong thinks this way about Chen Xuehuang, he won't regard me as his love rival, right?
Lin Yansheng rubbed his chin and suddenly thought of this question. Originally, he thought that the conflict between him and Wu Tong was just a matter of face and resources, but now it seems that Wu Tong directly regards him as a lever!
Thinking about Wu Tong's performance yesterday, Lin Shengsheng felt that it was not impossible...
It is said that the hatred of seizing a wife is irreconcilable, and seizing a goddess who licks a dog is like killing the whole family. After all, Wu Tong can't risk his life with him?
"Don't worry. With your Governor Tao and Instructor Simu protecting you, Wu Tong will definitely not do anything to you. At most, he will beat you up in the arena."
Chen Xuehuang seemed to have seen what Lin Yansheng was thinking, and showed him a sweet smile: "His Royal Highness Prince Hong has a good relationship with Governor Tao, and he may even recruit you into Prince Hong's Mansion.
Wu Tong has to look at the Buddha as well as the monk. He will not really fall out with you. If he wants to attack you, he will only use reasonable competition methods at most."
"When you say that, why do I feel like I'm being used as a weapon by you?" Lin Yansheng was a little helpless. He felt as if he was clearly arranged and was simply a pure tool.
"Don't say that. I'll be fine a long time ago. You won't face any risks. At worst, I'll explain to him in two months."
"Besides, ours is a win-win cooperation."
Chen Xuehuang winked at him and said playfully.
Lin Yansheng said: "A win-win situation? Can I ask how I won? Can I get a loan from you?"
Chen Xuehuang tilted his head, and after thinking for a while, he smiled sweetly and said: "You can get Chen Xuehuang's favorability bonus!"
“It’s still a big bonus!”
Lin Yansheng was so angry that he almost cried out a mouthful of blood...
"you are vicious!"
Although he almost choked with anger, he finally gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and forced himself to suppress the grievance in his heart.
He took out the ancient mark knife, walked aside silently, and slashed at a purple rock.
Click—click!
The purple rock snapped into two pieces, raising a cloud of smoke.
"Hey, don't be angry. As for..."
Seeing Lin Yansheng like this, Chen Xuehuang thought he was going to express his dissatisfaction. He was about to say something to comfort him, but before the words came out, they were stuck in his throat.
Because she saw that among the smoke and dust, there were clearly wisps of purple light floating away.
That's...the light of Purple Source Crystal?
Under Chen Xuehuang's surprised gaze, Lin Yansheng leaned over and took out a fist-sized piece of dark purple ore from the rubble.
"Here, the purity of this ore is almost 80%. It should be exchangeable for seven to eight hundred points, right?"
Lin Yansheng threw the piece of ore to Chen Xuehuang and said angrily.
Eighty percent pure Purple Source Crystal?
Did you get a piece of this?
Chen Xuehuang's heart was full of shock. She took the ore in her jade hand and weighed it carefully for a few times. After confirming that it was indeed a piece of extremely high-quality Purple Source Crystal, she looked at Lin Yansheng as if she were looking at a monster:
"You...how did you find out?!"
"Oh? Well...didn't I say that the dragon-hunting secret passed down from my master can detect unusual things?"
Lin Yansheng took it as a matter of course, as if what shocked Chen Xuehuang was nothing to him.
Of course, this is indeed the case. In front of the Lingzhu's field of vision, these high-quality ores are as dazzling as fireflies in the dark night.
"In addition, when the spiritual tide appears, many ores are not buried very deep. If you see those big rocks and chop them casually, you may gain a lot!"
Lin Yansheng chuckled in a nonchalant tone. At the same time, he felt happy when he looked at Chen Xuehuang's shocked expression and slightly open mouth.
I asked you to treat me as a tool! This time it’s finally your turn to be confused, right?
"you you……"
Chen Xuehuang didn't know what to say. Naturally, he asked Lin Yansheng where he learned his ore prospecting skills from, and the explanation Lin Yansheng gave was that his master taught him. But along the way, what she saw
The "secret technique" used by Lin Yansheng seems to be to simply radiate mental power slightly?
Chen Xuehuang, as a spirit pattern master, naturally has some attainments in the realm of souls. After her observation, Lin Shengsheng's method of emitting spiritual power is not only devoid of mystery, but even seems to be just beginning in terms of intensity.
Looks like...
Such a method... would it be the so-called secret technique of searching for a dragon?
Before this, Chen Xuehuang had always expressed considerable doubts about this, but now, these doubts have completely disappeared in front of this 80% pure Purple Source Crystal.
Just kidding, you can easily find such a grade of ore. Even if you say that Lin Shengsheng doesn’t have secret skills, he won’t believe it!
Combined with Lin Yansheng's previous achievements, it can only be said that the method of prospecting he possesses is really fucking mysterious. She can't see the way out, just because she has insufficient eyesight. How could it be that Lin Yansheng is fooling people randomly?
"Uh... Actually, there was a bit of luck involved just now..."
Probably because he was afraid of shocking Chen Xuehuang, Lin Yansheng hesitated for a moment and said sincerely.
Chen Xuehuang: "..."
"Set off!"
She rolled her eyes at Lin Yansheng and said angrily.
In the next two hours, the two of them gradually went deeper into the mine, and the amount of ore they harvested gradually increased.
Along the way, they found several pieces of Purple Source Crystal with a purity of about 70% to 80%, which was a fruitful harvest.
Until noon, when wisps of white sunlight shone through the purple thunder, Lin Shengsheng and his wife's harvest had reached a terrifying five thousand points!
"Okay, let's start collecting ordinary ores here, right?"
In an open space, Lin Yansheng smiled at Chen Xuehuang, who was playing with two pieces of 80% purity Purple Source Crystal.
"Huh? You still don't give up on that exotic ore?"
Chen Xuehuang was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.
This time, Xie Yan and other senior disciples joined the spiritual tide. She had no interest in the exotic ore at first, but now it seems that Lin Shengsheng in front of her is still not giving up?
To be continued...
