Chapter 8: Embracing the Light (Thanks to the leader of Sweeping the World for the reward)
In the dark mine tunnel, Lu Ye followed the old man while checking the contents of the storage bag.
He quickly found some Qi and Blood Pills and a few Healing Pills, which were the same as those in Manager Yang's storage bag. There were also some messy bottles and jars that Lu Ye didn't recognize at all.
There are a few other pieces of ore, but the quality is not as good as those collected by Manager Yang.
Zhou Cheng's status is not as good as that of Yang Guanshi, and his net worth is naturally not as rich as Yang Guanshi's.
But Lu Ye was already very satisfied, after all, it was something he picked up for free.
Put the long sword in your hand into the storage bag and tie it to your waist.
With this storage bag as a cover, the storage bag that is stored close to your body will be safer.
He wanted to ask the old man for advice on spiritual cultivation and spiritual elixirs, but after thinking about it he gave up. He was a senior expert, and although he looked friendly and kind, no one could tell what his character was like. This person he met by chance, Lu Ye
I don't have the guts to ask others for advice on this.
The most urgent thing is to follow him out of the mine tunnel. If you offend someone because of your inappropriate words, then you have to sacrifice the good and the bad.
The old man in front was not walking very fast, but Lu Ye actually had to trot to keep up. Moreover, he would occasionally disappear suddenly and then return soon.
Lu Ye secretly guessed that he was afraid that some of the hidden disciples in Xieyue Valley would be discovered by him and asked to be killed.
The mine tunnels in the veins are criss-crossed and the terrain is complex. Even Lu Ye needs to discern a little bit when passing through each intersection to find the right path. But the old man is just strolling around, but every path he takes is correct.
path of.
After only half an hour, there was light coming from the front!
That's the exit of the mine tunnel.
As the old man walked out of the dim mine tunnel and embraced the light again, Lu Ye couldn't help but feel in a trance, and he actually had a strange feeling of being a human being in this world.
"Mr. Tang!"
There are several figures guarding the exit of the mine. They are monks from various sects in the Haotian League, guarding against disciples from Xie Yue Valley escaping from there.
Seeing the old man appear, they all saluted.
The old man nodded slightly.
One of the leading middle-aged monks looked at Lu Ye doubtfully and asked, "Mr. Tang, who is he..."
The old man said: "The disciple of Xuantian Sect who was destroyed a year ago was kidnapped here to work as a mining slave. He helped me a little inside and brought him out along the way."
The middle-aged monk understood it and raised his hand to wave to a young monk next to him: "Take him to record it."
"Yes!" The young monk accepted the order and said to Lu Ye: "Follow me!"
Lu Ye turned his head and looked towards Mr. Tang. He wanted to say thank you, but Mr. Tang had already walked straight away.
The middle-aged monk who had spoken just now followed closely and said, "Mr. Tang, Vice-President Pang has an order. Please come out and see him to discuss important matters."
Mr. Tang stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and complained: "A handful of old bones can't rest for a moment."
Saying this, he rose into the sky and disappeared in an instant.
At this time, Lu Ye was already walking in another direction under the leadership of the young monk. The monk had no intention of communicating with him, so Lu Ye's silence was naturally golden.
Recalling what Mr. Tang said just now, Lu Ye smiled knowingly.
This old man is really good.
He didn't do anything to help others in the mine, but instead accepted their kindness, but he just said that, obviously deliberately.
For a senior expert like him, a casual word could resolve a lot of Lu Ye's troubles.
Such as the storage bag hanging on his waist!
For Lu Ye now, this thing is actually a trouble. When he found the storage bag from Zhou Cheng, Lu Ye had already realized it.
He has even planned to give it away if someone from the Haotian Alliance takes a fancy to this storage bag. After all, his current identity is just a mining slave in Xie Yue Valley, and he still has to rely on others.
Only those who give up will get something. He keeps all the really good things close to his body. A well-organized storage bag is nothing to regret.
But with Mr. Tang's casual words just now, I'm afraid no one will come up with the idea of this storage bag.
In the end, he was not able to express his gratitude in person, which made Lu Ye a little regretful. However, as time goes by, there will always be opportunities.
Outside the mine tunnel is a huge valley, surrounded by mountains on three sides. There is only one road from the east that can enter here. At this moment, the valley is bustling with people coming and going.
Lu Ye looked up and saw many traces of the battle in the valley. There were still blood stains on some of the ground. The entire valley was filled with a strong smell of blood.
It seems that when the Haotian Alliance captured this place, the people of Evil Moon Valley suffered a lot of losses.
Large flags stand all over the valley. Different words and patterns are engraved on the big flags, which should represent different sects and families.
The banner was crowded and bustling.
According to the information Lu Ye knows, the Haotian Alliance is an extremely large organization. There are many categories in the organization, and countless large and small sects and families are condensed into such a whole. The forces seen in front of you are only those of the Haotian Alliance.
tip of the iceberg.
The Ten Thousand Demon Ridge, which is opposed to the Haotian Alliance, has the same structure.
After regaining his freedom, Lu Ye was in a happy mood, and everything he saw felt new, prompting the young monk leading the way to urge him several times.
Walking to a corner of the valley, there were also many people gathered here, but these people were not as good as the brightly dressed and high-spirited monks that Lu Ye saw along the way. Most of them were gray-headed, sallow and thin, and a few of them were lost, especially some of the beautiful young people.
woman.
Those with gray heads and faces are all mining slaves who once worked on the mines. Years of hard work and malnutrition make them look like refugees fleeing from the sea.
Not all the people captured by the people of Evil Moon Valley will be used as mining slaves. There are also some beautiful women whose experiences are generally more miserable. Now that the mines have been captured and they are rescued, their tragic experiences are destined to be indelible.
go.
Seeing this group of people, Lu Ye immediately understood that these were all people who had been oppressed and enslaved by Xie Yue Valley but had now regained their freedom. They were gathered together for unknown reasons.
In front of this group of people, there was a desk. Behind the desk, a chubby monk who looked young was leaning on a chair and taking a nap with his arms folded.
The young monk who led Lu Ye came forward and knocked lightly on the desk.
The fat monk was so excited that he almost fell off his chair. When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he patted his chest and said, "You kid, you really scared me to death."
The young monk was speechless and said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Pang, although registration is just an idle job, you can't do this. If the adults in the league see it..."
Before he could finish what he said, the fat monk waved his hands impatiently: "I know, I know, I am verbose like a girl every day." He paused and asked, "What's the matter?"
The young monk stepped aside to reveal Lu Ye behind him: "Register and verify your identity."
Because of his obesity, the fat monk's eyes were almost invisible because of the fat on his face. But the moment he saw Lu Ye, his small eyes suddenly opened and his eyes were fixed on the storage bag on Lu Ye's waist.
