Chapter 67: Riot in the Restricted Area
Late at night, Qi Yunxian and Boss Qiu, a group of more than 20 people, lurked in front of the entrance to the restricted area.
"Everyone, please bring your sachets! As long as the sachets are there, the rats will not attack you. When chaos breaks out in the restricted area, everyone will rush in and kill all the people in the Black Water Gate."
Before taking action, Boss Qiu said to everyone,
The monks here now are all close subordinates of Qiu and Hao. They are also among the miners with higher cultivation levels. The lowest among them is above the sixth level of Qi Refining. They have also been informed of the situation in the mine and decided to Deal with Black Water Gate with Boss Qiu.
Everyone was dressed in black night clothes, hiding their faces and waiting for the opportunity.
At this moment, the Blackwater Sect monks and the Liu family monks in the restricted area have also rested, leaving only four people guarding the cave entrance. These four people are all Blackwater Sect monks, and their cultivation is not bad, and they have the strength of the eighth level of Qi refining.
He wouldn't be considered an unknown person in the Black Water Gate.
"Senior Brother Hai, how many years does it take to live like this? I almost go crazy when I stay in this dark place every day."
One of the Black Water Sect disciples complained that as members of the Black Water Sect who secretly mined ores, they were unlucky.
In order to prevent the news from leaking, you cannot leave the mine until the mining is completed.
Although their rewards are far more than double those given within the sect, these days are indeed difficult. After all, there are no spiritual veins in the mine, and cultivation relies entirely on pills and spiritual stones. If it were not suppressed by the foundation-building elders, they would have been killed long ago. I just want to drop the peach.
"Take it slow! Who told you that I don't have a good master? At this pace, I'm afraid it won't take more than thirty years to complete this mission, hey."
Senior Brother Hai also sighed helplessly. No one wants to stay here all the time. Although the treatment in the mine is good, it does not help their cultivation. Only those monks with no hope of future will choose to come here. .
"What's the sound? Have you heard any strange sounds?"
Senior Brother Hai suddenly asked, and several people stopped talking and held their breath. Sure enough, some subtle sounds came from the darkness ahead.
"Junior Brother Zhou, use the fireball technique to shine in front."
Junior Brother Zhou understood what he said and threw a fireball at them, only to see densely packed gold-eating rats rushing towards them like a tide.
"Send the signal, the tide of gold-eating rats, hurry up!"
The fireball technique landed among the rats, but had no effect. Instead, it angered the entire group of gold-eating rats and attacked several people crazily.
Several people had never seen such a scene before, and they were frightened out of their wits. It was Senior Brother Hai who reacted first and told the people to move back. At the same time, he threw out three or four earthen wall talismans to temporarily seal the entrance of the cave.
But he knew that this level of gold-devouring rats could not be resisted by a few earth walls, so he led the people inside without looking back.
After a few earth walls supported it for a moment, they were shattered into pieces by dozens of golden light spells.
The tide of gold-eating rats continued to surge towards the restricted area. At this time, Senior Brother Zhou had already woken everyone up, and he didn't need to say anything more. Everyone saw that the terror was the incoming rat tide, and they suddenly felt like a disaster was imminent.
There are not many monks in the entire restricted area. There are more than thirty people working in the Liu family's mining, but their cultivation levels are not too high. There are ten people in Heishuimen, each of whom is at the eighth level of Qi training and is proficient in combined attacks. technique.
They are the guards who ensure the safety of the entire restricted area.
At this moment, several monks from Heishuimen have deployed a simple first-order magic circle and a thick earth formation to resist the surging rat tide. There is no fear of life for the time being, but this is not a solution. The first-order magic formation cannot stop it for long.
"What's going on? Why did the rat infestation suddenly break out? What did Senior Brother Li and the others do? Don't they clean up rat infestations every year?"
"Yes! What did they do? Do they just want to make money and do nothing serious?"
"We are doomed this time. There are too many gold-devouring rats. The formation will break down in half an hour at most. We cannot wait like this. We must fight our way out while we still have some mana."
The monks of the Liu family couldn't sit still anymore and sent a few people to inquire.
"I don't know what to do, fellow Taoists. This rat tide is raging. Should we wait for rescue or should we fight to the death?"
Several Black Water Sect monks looked at the Liu family members tacitly. These Liu family members were not direct relatives, but were branches of the Liu family. They were all low-level people. The only strongest one was just a sixth-level Qi practitioner. old monk.
It would be difficult to rush out with them, but using them as bait is a good choice.
"That's a good question, fellow Taoist. If we stick to it, the first-order formation won't be able to support it for long. You have also seen that the scale of this rat tide is too big. Now we must rush out while we still have some mana."
When the Liu family heard this, they were also relieved. They were afraid that the Black Water Sect monks would dislike their low cultivation and leave them alone. ,
Soon, under the leadership of the Blackwater Gate monks, everyone rushed towards the outside of the restricted area, trying to carve out a bloody path in the rat tide.
Senior Brother Hai took the lead, holding a shield with a black high-grade magic weapon in his hand, and rushed outside. Countless golden light spells hit the shield like raindrops.
"I can't last long, so I'll throw someone out to distract the rats."
Senior Brother Hai ordered the people behind him,
The other Blackwater Sect monks had long ago reached a consensus that an unlucky Liu family monk was thrown out of the crowd. As expected, the rats slowed down their attack because of the Liu family monk thrown out. Senior Brother Hai also took the opportunity to speed up his pace.
Relying on this method, Brother Hai really rushed out with everyone, but the Liu family was miserable. Of the more than 30 people before, only 12 people survived, and the others were devoured by the rats.
Brother Hai and others did not dare to stay. Everyone rushed out of the mine, wanting to pass on this important message. Only the foundation-building cultivators could quell this rat tide, and he could also use this incident to overthrow Li Ming and Zhao Wei, who were not doing their job well.
Boss Qiu was about to take action, but was stopped by Qi Yunxian.
"The situation has changed. The cultivators of the Black Water Gate did not suffer much loss. If we act rashly, we may not be able to keep them. Moreover, some miners in the mine who do not know the truth will help them. If this exposes our rebellion and makes the outside world prepared, it will not be good.
We will go out with these people, and then take advantage of the Liu family's ancestors dealing with the gold-eating rats to launch a sneak attack. This will be more certain."
Everyone looked at each other and agreed to this method. After changing their clothes, they also followed the Black Water Gate cultivators from a distance and ran towards the exit of the mine.
