In the end, there was only one collateral descendant left. He looked left and right, then chose to leave by himself.
Seeing that the crowd couldn't wait to leave, in the blink of an eye, only Jia Musen and Xiao Chen were left at the gate. Xiao Chen looked at the direction where Jia Tuyao and Jia Huoyan left, and wondered, "What's going on? I remember that's not the location of the main mining area! These two idiots actually went in that direction, and they even brought so many people with them. Could it be that they are plotting something? "
"Uh … I forgot to tell you before. Among the five collateral descendants who are participating in the competition, four of them have their own factions. Among them, Jia Quushi and Jia Shou Luo are Jia Huoyan's henchmen, while Jia Shilei and Jia Rijing are Jia Tuyao's followers. That's why they are following their own master." Jia Musen explained, and said, "As for what they are plotting, I don't know!"
"Jia Quushi, Jia Shilei? Haha, I say, the names of your family are really interesting. Except for Huoyan, the rest are all triplets! If they were punished to write their names a hundred times, they probably wouldn't be able to finish writing until dawn. "Xiao Chen joked with a smile.
"In fact, when Jia Huoyan was a child, he also used triplets, but I don't know why he changed it later. Maybe he wanted to show that he is different from others!" Jia Musen shrugged.
"Tsk tsk, your family head is really ahead of the times. He knows that important things should be said three times, so after saying one word, he repeated it three times, and then folded it into one word!" Xiao Chen had a look of worship on his face.
"Alright, don't make fun of us!" Jia Musen smiled bitterly.
"Then, the person who just left should be the remaining collateral descendant? What's his name? Why doesn't he belong to any faction? "Xiao Chen turned his head to look at the other side and asked in surprise.
"Oh, that person is called Jia Renzhong, the deputy manager of the mine … Currently, he is the nephew of the acting manager, Jia Hongyong. Usually, he is quite a loner, and he doesn't seem to have any relationship with anyone." Jia Musen casually replied.
"Ah? The nephew of the manager can also participate in the competition? Is he also a collateral descendant of the Jia Clan? "Xiao Chen was a little surprised.
"Yes, his parents are also from the same family, but their relationship is a little distant. He can be considered as my cousin!" Jia Musen nodded his head and said with a slight sigh, "Unfortunately, when Jia Renzhong was still young, both of his parents passed away due to illness. Since then, he has always been ostracized by those branch family members. Therefore, he often follows Jia Hongyong. I'm usually busy with cultivation, so I can't be considered familiar with him."
"So that's how it is …" Xiao Chen looked in the direction that Jia Renzhong had left. His eyes flashed as if he was thinking about something. "He's quite similar to you …"
"Let's not talk about others. Let's hurry up and think about the match!" Jia Musen's face collapsed as he said with a headache, "I don't think we have any chance of winning this match! How did he get so many spiritual jades in such a short time? Even if he dug until the sky turned dark, it would still be useless! Moreover, the shallow layer of the main mining area has already been excavated. Where are we going to dig? That's a big problem! "
"What's so difficult about that?" Xiao Chen smiled and patted Jia Musen's shoulder. He reminded him, "Did you forget that there were still a lot of spiritual jades in the cave of the Giant Demon Spider last time? We just have to dig out the rest of the stock, and it should be enough! "
"That's right! How could I forget about this? Come, let's hurry up and dig! " Jia Musen slapped his forehead and couldn't wait to run in a certain direction. After running for two steps, he stopped and turned his head to look at Xiao Chen, who was standing at the same spot. "That … seems a little far!"
The two of them were now at the entrance of the Jia Clan's Heavenly Jade Mine. It was not the entrance at the periphery of the mine. The distance between the two sides was very far, and it was estimated that they wouldn't be able to reach it even if they ran until the sky turned dark.
Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled. He pulled Jia Musen forward until the people stationed at the entrance of the mine couldn't see them. Then, he took out his flying sword. The two of them soared into the sky and flew in the direction of the Demon Spider's cave.
Quickly arriving at the cave, the two of them began to dig out the Spiritual Jades without stopping. Jia Musen tried his best to win, while Xiao Chen was full of energy. Yesterday, he had cultivated for a whole night. For today's competition, he had even "stopped fighting" with Ling 'er and Ling Qianxue, and was teased by Tian Souruan.
Today, the girls stayed at the Jia Clan obediently and didn't come to make trouble. Jia Musen's courtyard was a symbol of his status as a direct disciple. Generally, no one would come to harass him, so his safety could be guaranteed. Xiao Chen told Cheng Mengying to take care of the remaining three little sisters and to call him if anything happened.
After digging hard for the whole morning, the two of them indeed got out a lot of Spiritual Jades. After counting them carefully, they found that there were sixty-five pieces, which had been piled up into a small mound.
The two of them thought that since it was too far from the storage point, they couldn't go back and forth on foot. They could only rely on flying swords to transport the Spiritual Jades. Therefore, they should first wrap up these Spiritual Jades and send them back, so that they wouldn't be able to transport them in time.
Without hesitation, the two of them immediately emptied the things in their bags and put all the Spiritual Jades into them. Then, they stepped on their flying swords and flew toward the storage point outside the gate of the Heavenly Jade Mine.
When they arrived at the forest near the gate, Xiao Chen pressed down on his flying swords. The two of them carried their bags and came out of the forest, walking toward the storage point. Unexpectedly, Jia Huoyan was already waiting outside the gate.
He was leisurely chatting with others when he suddenly saw Jia Musen and Ling Qianxue coming out with two bags full of Spiritual Jades. Immediately, his expression changed, and he found it hard to believe.
"Dong! Dong! " Jia Musen and Xiao Chen walked to the front of the storage table and put down their bags, making two heavy sounds. The staff in charge of counting immediately opened the bags and began to count.
"Jia Musen currently has sixty-five Spiritual Jades!" Not long after, the staff reported the number of Spiritual Jades. Jia Jinyan's eyes flashed, and he smiled at Jia Musen. He nodded and recorded it on the list.
"Uh … Aren't we going to weigh them?" Jia Musen asked with a little doubt.
"First, record the number. Finally, after the end of the competition, we will weigh them." The staff replied with a smile.
"Oh, not bad. Did you two get lucky? You actually dug up so many Spiritual Jades! " Jia Huoyan's originally surprised expression immediately relaxed after hearing the number. He sarcastically said from the side.
Jia Musen coldly looked at him and didn't reply. Instead, he continued to pack up his bags.
Jia Huoyan didn't plan to let him go just like that. He continued to ridicule him with a smile that wasn't a smile. "However, compared to the Spiritual Jades this young master has obtained, it is still far from enough! You two hardworking miners, continue to work hard! There are still many Spiritual Jades inside waiting for you to excavate! Hahaha! "
