Volume 3 Battle of the Sea Clan Chapter 385
Seeing the character of this young man coming and going like the wind, Liu Ming touched his chin and smiled helplessly, then continued to look at the map in his hand with a thoughtful look on his face.
According to the information he had previously obtained, the current situation in this mine is not very good, whether it is spiritual stone food is in urgent need.
But in this case, the physically strong person is obviously more dominant.
And with his tyrannical body, there is almost no need to fear anyone in this mine.
According to Liu Ming's plan, he wanted to go to the depths of the mine to investigate the situation while he was still full of physical strength and mana was not exhausted, and by the way to see what the evil beast was.
After all, if you can't adapt to the environment here in a short period of time and wait for its mana to run out, it will be too passive.
Although he still stored some high-grade spirit stones and medicinal pills in the Sumeru snails, but even so, the consumption speed of this place is so fast, naturally he can't last long.
And he had better find a way to get out of here before he runs out of mana.
Liu Ming thought so, his eyes fixed on the place marked on the animal skin in his hand, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
According to this map record, the direction of a certain passage at the three-way intersection is the only way to the depths of this mineral vein, and there will also be a gathering place similar to an exchange area on the way.
Liu Ming is no stranger to this kind of market-like place where cultivators exchange items and resources with each other, but he didn't expect that there is such a place in this underground mine.
Thinking of this, Liu Ming no longer hesitated, his figure flashed several times, and he sank into the channel on the left.
Two hours later, after Liu Ming entered the passage according to the map, he finally saw a faint white light flashing not far ahead, and a huge cave was vaguely nearby. Step forward.
This is obviously the so-called "swap area".
Liu Ming suddenly felt a wide field of vision, and an open space with a dozen huge stone pillars appeared in front of him.
Each of these pillars is the thickness of a water tank, and the surface is inlaid with densely luminous fluorite, which illuminates the entire cave extremely brightly.
Liu Ming's eyes swept away.
But seeing that this place is about two or three hundred zhang wide,
In addition to the passage from the time of arrival, there are several other passages, but I don't know where they lead. But according to the map, one of them should lead to the depths of the mine.
It seems that this is also a place extending in all directions.
From the countless large and small stone pits on the cave walls and the degree of surface wear, we can tell that this place was also a mining area a long time ago, and it should be some time now that it has become a gathering place for miners.
There are forty or fifty miners gathered in the cave at this moment, but it doesn't seem too deserted.
Most of the mine slaves are from the sea clan, and there are also some human races and other foreign races, but there are very few people from the demon clan.
And these miners are all pale skin, disheveled hair, tattered clothes, and most of their expressions are abnormally numb. There are only some people with calm expressions, and their faces are full of vicious expressions.
These people placed some things in the open air at the central square of the cave, exchanging some materials and food with each other. There seemed to be some bone weapons like the bone knife on Liu Ming's waist, but there were not many spiritual tools.
Seeing Liu Ming coming in at this moment, except for a few people who turned their heads and glanced at them, most of them looked like they were ignoring them, and they were still talking and meditating on their own.
The surrounding walls of the cave have also been used. There are some very simple stone caves, most of which are empty. There are a few caves that are occupied by people, and the people sitting in them are more aura than their faces. The miners on the cave square are a bit better, and the items placed on the stone platform in front of them are of much better quality than those placed in the open air. It seems that it should be a master or a powerful person in some powerful gangs here.
It is also true that these miners who stayed in the exchange area, except for a few people, are mostly the weakest people in some powerful gangs, or even just some spiritual disciples. I am afraid that most of the really powerful people have already penetrated into the depths of the mines.
Liu Ming calmly walked into the cave, found an unremarkable corner at random and sat down, and began to observe quietly.
This place is similar to what he thought in his mind before, and a most primitive square market has vaguely formed.
At this moment, there was a commotion in a certain passage.
Liu Ming's subconscious gaze swept away.
I saw three bald-headed men exuding a strong yin and evil aura appearing at the entrance of another passage, and led by the person headed in the middle, they walked towards a corner of the cave.
Under the bright light in the cave, Liu Ming found that the two of them were carrying a huge sackcloth bag behind them. There was blood on the surface of the bag. The miners in the square stopped what they were doing and looked up.
The lifeless eyes of many miners were filled with a hint of longing at this moment.
The three bald-headed men strode to a stone cave in the corner and stopped under everyone's attention.
The man in the lead made a gesture of clasping his fists to a middle-aged man who was meditating with his eyes closed in the cave, then took a small bag from his waist and handed it over, while whispering something.
But after seeing the middle-aged man listen, he stretched out one hand to take the small bag, and after weighing it a little, he put it in his sleeve, nodded, and then stretched out the other hand and pointed to the wall of the hole. Leaning on the middle of the stone hole, and then continued to meditate.
Liu Ming found that the middle-aged man's clothes were surprisingly neat compared to other mining slaves, and he was an adopted son who ignored him. There was nothing on the stone platform in front of him. It seemed that there was a certain force. The man sent to manage this place.
When the three bald men walked to the stone cave designated by the middle-aged man, the first one suddenly turned around and shouted loudly:
"Fresh beast flesh and blood two thousand catties, two spirit stones or minerals of the same value per catty, first come first served!"
As the sound fell, the two behind him put the sacks on their shoulders on the stone platform at the entrance of the cave, making two muffled sounds. Evil beast flesh and blood.
"Yuanmeng, it's too black-hearted! Not long ago, there was a spirit stone and a pound." Suddenly a sea clan miner in the square shouted, and at the same time, several miners began to agree.
"Black-hearted? Hmph, the evil beasts are much more powerful now than before. If you have the ability, go hunt and kill yourself." The bald man named "Yuanmeng" who was headed gave the sea man a fierce look, shouted loudly, and then Then he entered the cave and sat on the ground on his own, closing his eyes and resting.
Seeing this, the other miners couldn't help looking at each other.
In the end, after a few miners swallowed their saliva, they still came to the entrance of the stone cave, lining up to exchange spirit stones for the flesh and blood of evil beasts from two bald men. But after seeing one of the bald men take the spirit stone, the other bald man will use the bone knife in his hand to cut off the corresponding flesh and blood and throw it to the visitor.
As a result, in less than a moment, there was not much flesh and blood on the stone platform in front of the "Yuanmeng". Instead, there were bags of spirit stones and various ores.
Even the man from the Sea Clan, who was named Lou, finally took a bag of spirit stones and exchanged dozens of catties of flesh and blood from the bald man after seeing everyone go to exchange for flesh and blood, and then left through the passage on the side. .
Seeing this scene, Liu Ming couldn't help frowning. It seemed that the food and spirit stones here were more precious than he imagined, and he couldn't help but sighed in his heart.
But fortunately, the spirit stone is still a common thing here. Judging from the high-grade spirit stones in his Sumeru snails, there is no need to worry about this in a short time.
In this way, after Liu Ming stayed here for a while, after a little understanding of the prices of some items here, he quietly entered the passage leading to the depths of the mine.
This time, in order to avoid some unnecessary troubles, as soon as Fang entered the passage, he took out an unknown medicinal pill from his body without saying a word. After wiping it on his body, his face immediately became abnormal like that of other miners. pale.
After Liu Ming used his mental power to activate the magic spell, his aura suddenly weakened a bit, so he looked no different from other miners.
After he did all this, he continued to pick up the map and continued to move forward according to the above guidelines.
After walking like this for an unknown time, Liu Ming swayed and came to a small cave with a size of more than ten feet. There were two passages in front of the cave. After a brief judgment, he was ready to go to one of the passages.
As a result, under his inadvertent glance from the corner of his eyes, he found a few red corpses lying staggered in a corner of the cave.
Liu Ming was stunned when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but take a step, stepped forward, looked carefully, and found that all of them had broken limbs, and the death was extremely miserable, and looking at the rot, the time of death should be However, after two or three days, all the clothes on his body were stripped.
What's even weirder is that the faint red light on the surface of these corpses came from the unknown red bugs that were densely covered, which made Liu Ming take a deep breath.
These little worms are less than an inch long, with two tentacles on their heads. They lie on top of the corpse and do not move. The red round shell on their back is reflected by the light of the cyan fluorescent stone on the cave wall, showing a faint red light. The end is weird.
Seeing all this, Liu Ming's face twitched for a few seconds before continuing to walk towards the front passage.
And just after walking through the two corners of this pass, there are several figures in front of you.
Liu Ming frowned, but continued to walk forward with no expression on his face, without looking at these people at all.
A Ruoyou Ruowu Divine Consciousness swept over immediately, but left after only a slight touch.
And when passing by these people, Liu Ming obviously felt the bad eyes of these people.
But fortunately, they didn't seem to be very interested in a mining slave like him alone, just glanced at it, and they passed by without any pause.
In the following time, he also encountered several waves of other miners passing by on the road.
However, although these people did not see the identity of the newcomers, when they saw Liu Ming alone, there was always a hint of ill will in his eyes.
Fortunately, he was heading towards the depths of the mineral vein at the moment, and he looked like a powerless poor ghost, but no one really took the initiative to take any action.
