"You guys are so skinny. Can you do it? Today's task is not easy. "The mysterious men glanced at Yun Sheng and the others. Seeing that they were just teenagers, they could not help but frown.
"Masters, these children are not young anymore. Their families do farm work, so they are quite strong. But for the brothers who are sick, even if they go to the mining area, they will only delay the progress. It will not be good if they cause you to be scolded. "Liu Zi's father had already figured out the temperament of these mysterious men, so he stepped forward to help them.
"Are they from the same village as you? Well, later you will keep an eye on them. Don't think of doing anything wrong. Otherwise, cut off their legs. "The mysterious men did not recognize Yun Sheng and the others, but they were somewhat familiar with Liu Zi's father. Hearing what he said, they reluctantly agreed with Liu Zi's father.
But when they saw that Yun Sheng and the other two were so skinny, they left the shortest oriole behind. Then they picked up 20 people, including Liu Zi's father, and took them out together.
As soon as they left the cave, they were shackled and chained. In this way, it was much more difficult to escape.
Since Yun Sheng was brought back to the mining area, it was the first time that she left the cave. As soon as she got out of the cave, the dazzling sunlight made her squint her eyes.
"Don't look around. Go east. Remember, your task today is to dig up 50 kilograms of purple gold ore. If the amount is not enough, each of you will be whipped ten times." The mysterious men who supervised them wore masks. Their eyes exposed outside the masks were fierce. They waved the whips in their hands and warned everyone.
All the way to the east of the mining area, Yun Sheng saw a tunnel.
The entrance of the tunnel was very high, more than 10 meters high.
It went deep into the ground. This must be the entrance of the mining area.
The earlier group of miners was coming out of the entrance.
Two mysterious men were responsible for searching their bodies.
"What is this?" With a fierce shout, a shivering miner was grabbed by the neck by a mysterious man like a chicken. From the miner's pants, a purple ore as thick as a finger rolled out.
Yun Sheng looked carefully. The ore looked very similar to purple crystal, but it was completely different from purple crystal. This purple ore was mixed with gold.
Under the sunlight, the purple and gold colors were very beautiful.
That was the most precious ore on the Boundless Continent, the Purple Gold Ore.
The most expensive purple gold coin in circulation in the Boundless World was the purple gold card, which was made from precious purple gold ore.
The purple-gold ore's uses were not limited to that. Legend had it that a brilliant blacksmith could refine the purple-gold ore into top-grade defensive equipment.
However, the amount of purple gold ore in the entire continent was very limited. Therefore, as long as there was a clue to the Empire's purple gold ore, all the major countries would frantically send people to search for it.
The capital of Zhou State was no exception.
A piece of purple gold ore the thickness of a finger was equivalent to five purple gold coins, which was equivalent to fifty gold coins. To most of the villagers who worked in the mining area, this was a huge fortune that they would never be able to obtain in their lifetime.
It was also to prevent the villagers from hiding anything, so no matter if they entered or left the cave, all the villagers would be searched.
Yun Sheng had also expected this, so she had already hidden her storage ring in a secret place in the cave.
That villager who was caught was also greedy, which was why he hid the ore. After he was discovered, he was so scared that he trembled and kept begging for mercy. "Sir, I won't dare to do it again. I was just muddle-headed for a moment."
"Muddle-Headed? Haha, what a muddle-headed person. "A cold light flashed in the hands of the mysterious person who found the ore, and he chopped off one of the villager's fingers.
That villager was rolling on the ground in pain. When the other villagers saw this, they were so scared that their faces turned pale. No one dared to go forward to help him. "If it wasn't for the lack of manpower in the mining area, I would have cut off your head and fed it to the magical beasts." Kicking that villager away, the mysterious person waved his hand and motioned for Yun Sheng and the rest to enter.
Yun Sheng calmly walked over.
When Yun Sheng walked in with shackles on her legs, one of the mysterious people's eyes flashed under the mask and showed some surprise.
Why was she here?
After Yun Sheng and the rest entered the cave, the leader of the mysterious people ordered the rest of the mysterious people to patrol the area and pay attention to the situation.
"Beiming, I'm not seeing things, right? Wasn't that the little miracle doctor just now?" A tall mysterious person whispered in another person's ear. Although Yun Sheng was dressed as a man, she was still recognized at a glance.
"She was fine in Southern Cliff Town. What did she come here for? She's really messing around." The man's voice was low and there was some dissatisfaction in his eyes. This little wild cat was really worrisome.
She didn't know what method Ye Beiming used, but his grey eyes now looked dark brown.
Cheng Bai's skin was also dyed a beeswax color. They were wearing masks and their appearance was similar to the other mysterious people in the mining area. If she didn't look carefully, Yun Sheng wouldn't be able to tell.
In a place like the mining area, there were all kinds of people. She actually dared to come here alone.
Where did Yun Canglang go? And that Zong Yi.
"Then what should we do? Are we still going to continue with our plan? "The tall and straight mysterious men were Ye Beiming and Cheng Bai in disguise.
A few days ago, Ye Beiming, Cheng Bai, and Bu Jiuxiao had all mixed into this group of mysterious people.
This mining area was also the purpose of their trip.
"Act according to the plan. I know what to do about the little wild cat. Jiuxiao has already found out the origins of these mysterious people. They are most likely related to Tang Yuan. This time, we'll catch a turtle in a jar. "Ye Beiming's eyes turned cold. He was determined to get this batch of purple gold ore. How could he allow other countries to get a share of it?
Yun Sheng didn't know that she and Ye Beiming had boarded a pirate ship. She dragged the heavy shackles and entered the mine. As soon as she entered the mine, she was attracted by the scenery in front of her.
Purple gold was indeed worthy of the title of the most beautiful ore on the continent.
Whether it was day or night, the mine flickered with a beautiful light like the tail light of a firefly. Purple and gold mixed together to illuminate people's eyes, like a two-colored rainbow.
It had to be said that this was an excellent mining area. In the whole mining area, about four-fifths of the area was purple gold ore, and the remaining one-fifth was rough basalt.
This was a pure natural mining area. A large amount of purple gold ore was exposed to the ground. The hexagonal crystals of different sizes were of different sizes.
Some were only the size of a coin, while others were like pillars that supported the sky, rising from the ground.
They grew from the stones on the ground, like towering trees full of vitality. They rose from the sky and reached the top of the cave dozens of meters away.
These precious ores also emitted a kind of gauze-like purple mist that lingered above the mine, making the whole mine more beautiful.
Every villager who had just entered the mine would be attracted by this strange scene.
"Don't be dumbfounded. This wealth doesn't belong to us. We can't have evil thoughts." Yun Sheng and Liu Zi's dumbfounded expressions made Liu Zi's father shake his head.
Most of the villagers who had just entered the mine would show such expressions. But after a day, if they couldn't dig up enough ores, what awaited them was the most cruel whipping.
After being reminded by Liu Zi's father, Yun Sheng put away her curiosity.
