miner

In the dim and humid mining tunnel, Lu Ye carried a mining basket on his back and a mining pick in his hand as he walked forward step by step.

The teenager's expression was a bit sad, his eyes focused on the empty space in front of him, seemingly staring at something.

To outsiders, it looked like there was nothing in front of Lu Ye, but in reality, a translucent shadow could be seen in the teenager's field of vision.

It looked like the shadow of a tree, gray and indistinct, calling out to people, with lush branches and leaves, and the branches of the tree separated from a third of the tree's body towards the left and right, supporting a semi-circular crown.

Having come to this world called Kyushu for more than a year, Lu Ye still hadn't figured out what the hell this was, all he knew was that when he concentrated enough, there was a chance that this shadow tree would appear in the field of vision, and that others wouldn't notice it at all.

"What a miserable life." The teenager let out a sigh.

A year ago, he suddenly woke up in this strange world, and before he could familiarize himself with the environment, the sect he was in was captured by a group of thieves, many people were killed, and he and some other young men and women became the captives of that group of thieves, and then they were sent into this mine vein to become a lowly mining slave.

Only afterward did he learn from the scattered conversations of bystanders that the sect he was in was affiliated with the Haotian Alliance, a sect called the Xuan Heavenly Sect.

The name of this sect sounded cool and wild, but in reality, it was just a small, unimpressive sect.

The one that had captured the Xuan Heavenly Sect was the Evil Moon Valley under the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge.

The Haotian Alliance and the Ten Thousand Demon Ridge were the two major organizations in this world, both formed by the union of countless large and small sects, tilting at each other with the intention of completely annihilating each other, and it was said that it had been going on for hundreds of years.

In Lu Ye's opinion, such a fight is simply the confrontation between the guardian camp and the evil camp, he was just accidentally involved in such a confrontation tide.

Throughout the years, the war in the continent of Kyushu has been raging, and every year, small forces like the Xuan Heavenly Sect have been uprooted, but soon there are more forces springing up like rain, occupying various territories and making the situation even more chaotic.

Mining slaves are just mining slaves ... Lu Ye gave a self comforting cry, comparing to those who were killed, he was at least alive.

Can survive is not because he has any special skills, but the Evil Moon Valley needs some handyman to do things, such as Lu Ye, who has no cultivation in the body, the age of the person is still young, is undoubtedly the best choice.

As a matter of fact, the mining slaves in this vein are not only people from Xuan Heavenly Sect, but also disciples from some other small families and sects.

Evil Moon Valley's strength was not weak, and over the years it had captured quite a few territories, and naturally, the original forces on these territories had all been wiped out, and some of the available manpower had been sent by the Evil Moon Valley to be enslaved in various places.

All of these people without exception have a characteristic, have not yet been enlightened, no cultivation in the body, so it is very good to control.

There is a saying in the continent of Kyushu that it is difficult for a demon to take shape without enlightenment, and it is difficult for a human to cultivate without enlightenment.

If you want to cultivate, you need to open your spiritual aperture, and only when you have opened your spiritual aperture will you be qualified to cultivate.

The opening of spiritual aperture is not a simple thing, ordinary people can open spiritual aperture after systematic exercise, but only about one hundred and one, if the origin of cultivation family or sect, there are elders to point out, this ratio may be higher.

Lu Ye was not able to open his own spiritual aperture, so he could only dig in the dimly lit mines for a living.

However, the mining slaves are not without a way out, if you can open the aperture successfully, find the person in charge of the report, there will be an opportunity to participate in an examination, the examination is successful, you can become a disciple of the Evil Moon Valley.

However, there are very few mining slaves who can be enlightened, in this dim environment all day labor, even the rice are not enough to eat, how can also be enlightened.

So basically ninety-nine percent of the mining slaves have already accepted their fate, laboring hard every day just for a full meal.

Lu Ye has no sense of belonging to Xuan Heavenly Sect, after all, when he just came to this world, Xuan Heavenly Sect was destroyed, and he doesn't even know who those people in the sect are.

He also did not want to become a disciple of what Evil Moon Valley, this is not a serious force, just listening to the name alone gives a sense of evil, sooner or later it will be destroyed.

But can not be a lifetime nested here as a mining slave, that how to behave, at least he is also the elite of the new era, if you do not have a dream, what is the difference.

So this year he has been trying to enlightenment, originally he thought that only he can see the shadow tree can provide him with some wonderful help, but until now, this shadow tree is still just a shadow, not to mention what help, sometimes it will also affect his eyesight.

Lu Ye seriously wondered if there was something wrong with his eyes.

Turning a corner, a little faint light appeared in the distance, that was one of the exits of the mine tunnel.

Today's harvest is good, the ore in the basket will be turned in, it should be able to get three points of contribution, counting the accumulation of the previous few days, there are about twelve points, two points for two steamed buns, the remaining ten points is just enough to exchange for a qi and blood pill.

Qi and blood pill is a very low-level elixir, is not an aid to enlightenment, but if you want to enlighten, you have to be full of qi and blood to be able to do it, although the qi and blood pill is low-level, but it is just right for Lu Ye, such as those who do not have the enlightenment to use.

The reason why the Evil Moon Valley is willing to come up with qi and blood pills is not a good heart attack, but they know the way of the human heart, this cheapest and low-grade pills can make people with hope work harder and harder to mine.

For example, Lu Ye ... is very diligent every day.

Thirty feet away from the exit of the mine tunnel, Lu Ye's eyes inadvertently glanced over a corner in front of the left, where there was a huge boulder stretched across.

His footsteps did not stop, and he continued to walk forward until about ten feet, then he put down the mining basket that he carried behind his back, tightened the mining pick in his hand, and took out a moderate sized stone from the mining basket, and weighed it a little bit.

The next moment, he ran towards the boulder, close to the boulder, side slip, a foot on the rock wall of the mining road, the whole person with the help of the rebound force towards the back of the boulder swooped down, just like a robust cheetah.

The two figures were half crouching behind the boulder, using the boulder to hide their figures, not expecting that the visitor would find their traces.

Hearing the commotion and seeing Lu Ye, it was too late to get up.

In the two horrified eyes, Lu Ye raised his hand and threw out the hand of the ore, hit one of the bridge of the nose, that person immediately ah ah a cry of misery, fell on his back on the ground, the face of the blood flowed straight.

Lu Ye's other hand's pickaxe struck again, but did not hit the second person, that person's reaction is good, head to avoid.

However, Lu Ye has rushed to his front, a kick down, hit the other side of the abdomen, the man was immediately full of pain, fell out, kneeling on the ground, a mouthful of blood spit out.

Lu Ye stepped forward, grabbed the other person's hair with one hand, saw the other person's face, and laughed coldly: "Who do I think it is, it turns out to be the two of you brothers!"

These two people he recognized, they were disciples of a Liu Clan, after the territory where Liu Clan was located was captured by Evil Moon Valley, some of the young disciples of Liu Clan were sent here to serve as mining slaves.

Strictly speaking, Lu Ye and these two brothers of Liu's were considered to share the same fate.

"Did I mention, don't let me see you guys again or I'll kill you!" As Lu Ye spoke, he casually picked up a stone from the ground and smashed it hard.

This smash was not light, Liu's second oldest only grunted and was directly knocked out.

Lu Ye again walked towards Boss Liu who was injured by him earlier.

Liu boss forehead was smashed, blood mold lake eyes, vaguely saw Lu Ye toward him, scared to roll with crawling: "Mercy ah, my brothers do not know it is you came over, thought it was a bystander ... Mercy ah!"

Liu's two brothers sneakily ambushed in front of the exit of the mine tunnel, naturally, they did not have any good intentions.

These two were captured before, are all spoiled generation, even into the mine slaves, also do not want to suffer, but the status of the mine slaves is low, the Evil Moon Valley people simply do not take the mine slaves as a person to look at, there is no ore to exchange contributions, then, simply can not exchange for food.

Therefore, these two brothers often squat in front of an exit of the mining road, robbing those single mining slaves, a lot of people so unlucky, not only daily hard mining ore was robbed, but also be beaten half dead.

Last time, they wanted to rob Lu Ye, but the result was not an opponent, they were taught a lesson.

Unexpectedly, only a few days ago, ran into these two brothers again.

The generation a hundred kinds of people, mining slaves like Liu's brothers such as the lazy generation, there are also like Lu Ye such as the heart of the dream of the people.

This year, Lu Ye through the ore exchange to the contribution, in addition to ensure that the daily subsistence, are exchanged for qi blood pill to take.

In total, he had taken no less than thirty qi and blood pills.

This created Lu Ye's physique that was stronger than most of the mining slaves, although his body type was not strong, the strength contained within his body was already better than that of an ordinary person.

Dealing with two lazy mining slaves was naturally no big deal.

Boss Liu was still pleading for mercy, Lu Ye just ignored it, grabbed his hair, raised the stone in his other hand and smashed it down hard.

More than a year of mining slavery, Lu Ye has seen too many tragedies, has long understood the truth, in this power-rulls-all world, any pity and sympathy is useless.

The mine slaves were not in harmony, the mine slaves from different forces were destined to have no way to unite, for a piece of good ore, the mine slaves would often fight head to head.

People dies every day in the mine tunnel, and every time you traveled a distance, you could see a withered bone scattered on the ground.

There were not a few mine slaves who starved to death because they were robbed.

Boss Liu collapsed in response.

Lu Ye retrieved his own mining pickaxe, put the mining basket back on his back and took a step towards the exit, he didn't kill the Liu brothers, not that he was merciful, but injured mining slaves usually don't live long here.

Only a few steps, the exit suddenly rushed in a panic.

"Get lost!" The man shouted lowly and swept a slap towards Lu Ye.

At this instant, Lu Ye was chilled all over, only because he saw a tantalizing blue light flowing through the other person's palm.

It was the glow of spiritual energy, in other words, the one who had struck out at him was a cultivator!

It was only with the opening of a spiritual orifice that one had the qualifications to cultivate and be called a cultivator.

A cultivator's spiritual energy was an extremely magical power, Lu Ye had seen a cultivator from Evil Moon Valley strike, although it wasn't too powerful, but that person just lightly slapped a palm and shattered a piece of ore, and it was after seeing that magical scene that Lu Ye made up his mind to open his own spiritual aperture and become a cultivator.

He had also secretly assessed that even the cultivator with the lowest cultivation level in Evil Moon Valley could easily beat ten of himself.

Therefore, when he realized that the one who shot at him was a cultivator, Lu Ye knew that he was in trouble.

At the moment of life and death crisis, he stopped his pace hard and fiercely leapt back.

With a numbness in his chest and the sound of a broken bone, Lu Ye flew backwards in response and fell to the ground.

The intense pain cleared his mind quite a bit, and after realizing that he was still alive, he immediately got up.

"Huh!" The cultivator who had struck out was a bit surprised, although he hadn't used his full strength in that palm just now, he had just casually slapped it out, it shouldn't have been something that the mining slave was able to withstand.

Seeing the appearance of the mining slave through the shimmering light, he said offhandedly, "Lu Ye?"

Lu Ye had already posed to turn around and run away at this moment, and after hearing the voice, he was also stunned to the extreme: "Steward Yang?"

This cultivator surnamed Yang was a small steward in the mine, Lu Ye would deal with him from time to time, because the Qi and Blood Pills were exchanged from his hands, so they were quite familiar with each other.

Steward Yang is very optimistic about Lu Ye, after all, such as he can bear hardships and stand hard work of mine slaves rarely seen.

However, there was no special favorable treatment for him, and without enlightenment, there was an insurmountable gap between a mortal like Lu Ye and a cultivator.

After recognizing Lu Ye, Steward Yang for his own palm failed to shoot the other side of the matter will be relieved, Lu Ye this year from his hands exchanged a lot of qi and blood pills, the physical quality of the mine slaves than the general strong, plus he just casually hit, not to deliberately kill, the other side to survive is not strange.

Across from Steward Yang, Lu Ye's heart is drumming.

Evil Moon Valley cultivators generally do not pay attention to the death of mining slaves, they also know that mining slaves in the veins of the mine will often happen to fight, unless they run into, otherwise basically do not pay attention to.

Lu Ye's side just beat Liu's brother's head, fainted on the ground, turned his head and Steward Yang slapped him, in Lu Ye's view, this is clearly Steward Yang is teaching himself a lesson.

However, he soon felt that it was not right, because Steward Yang rushed in with a panicked look, it did not look like he was standing up for the Liu Brothers.

Just as he was ruminating, Steward Yang had already revealed a look of surprise, as if it was a good thing to run into Lu Ye here, bulldozing his way forward and grabbing Lu Ye's shoulder, "Come with me!"
