Immortal Way Retrograde

Chapter 879 The Old Lady

Jun Luo didn't know how long she had been asleep, and when she woke up, she found that she was already in another strange place.

The wooden houses and their shabby, leaky windows, and creaking bed boards all remind Jun Luo of the dire situation he is currently in.

Isn't she in the formation?How did you come here?
Jun Luo subconsciously wanted to use her spiritual sense to investigate the surrounding situation, but found that her spiritual sense couldn't surge, and she couldn't even look inside, because her spiritual power couldn't be mobilized either!
This kind of cognition is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for a monk, and losing this advantage is equivalent to becoming an ordinary person with no power to restrain a chicken.

Yes, the current Jun Luo is a mortal through and through.

However, there was not much surprise on her face, she just silently observed everything around her with her eyes.

Apart from the bed, there was only a pile of wood in the corner of this room, and the faint smell of soot was always around Jun Luo's nose.

She thought she should have been brought here...

Jun Luo touched the storage bag at his waist, it was very good, but it couldn't be used anymore.

"Xiao Hei? Can you come out?" Jun Luo asked tentatively.Unfortunately, there was no response either.

Jun Luo got out of bed and pushed open the crumbling door.

It turns out that this place is still an inside room, and the outside is the main body of the wooden house.

Compared with the inside, the outside is much wider, but there is not much furniture, and a gray-haired old lady bent her back and seemed to be burning coals for warmth.

The old lady didn't look up, and said softly, "You're awake."

Jun Luo walked up to the old lady, observing her bone age habitually, but forgot that she could no longer use any spells...

She originally wanted to look at his bone age to see if he was a mortal or an ordinary person, and then decide on the title, but now this road is obviously not going to work.

"I don't know your last name..." Jun Luo said.

"I've forgotten my name, so you can call me old lady."

Jun Luo frowned, "You used to be a monk?"

"Yeah, but it was a long time ago, and now I can only be a mortal here..."

Jun Luo bowed to the old lady, "Thank you for saving me here, but when you were saving me, did you see other people?"

After the old lady threw the last piece of coal into the stove, she was finally willing to look up and said, "No, when I picked you up in Yanshan, it was only you."

Jun Luo's heart was flustered, and he instantly understood that they had separated again.

"Then what formations have you seen?"

The old lady laughed twice, "How can there be any formations in this land of absolute spirits? Even if there are formations, it is probably useless. But you, little girl, found that you have lost your spiritual power and consciousness, and you can still be so calm , Did you guess where you are?"

Of course Jun Luo guessed it. After all, the purpose of their trip was the Land of Absolute Spirits. If they found a place where spiritual power could not be used, what could it be if it was not the Land of Absolute Spirits.

The old lady went to the stove hood and took a few sweet potatoes, jumped on a tree branch and roasted them over the fire.

In the absence of spiritual support, monks also need to eat, otherwise they can only starve to death.

The warmth brought by the flames made Jun Luo feel a little relaxed, "How long have you lived here, the life skills seem to be very familiar."

The old lady smiled, "I don't know how long I've been here...it may be decades, or it may be hundreds of years. Staying here for a long time will blur the years..."

Recently, she could feel that her physical condition was weakening, and she probably didn't have a long time to live well.

"Haven't you thought about leaving here and returning to the world of comprehension?"

The old lady smiled and said, "When I first came here, I thought about it every day. I always thought that I had the ability to leave here, but you have also seen the final result. I will be consumed here. The hope I once had was just unrealistic." delusional."

The fire light reflected on the old lady's face, which seemed to reflect her thoughts.

She was also full of energy and passion, but this place is a place more terrifying than hell. If you come here, you won't have a chance to leave.

Jun Luo was not affected by her emotions, she said calmly, "Can you tell me about the situation here?"

The old lady was not stingy, and told Jun Luo everything she knew.

It turns out that this land of unrecognizable spirits is a small world full of ores, and the whole world lives on ores.

The most people here do is mining, because only by constantly mining can you get some food, and if you keep mining, you can make a person survive.

The mineral resources in the Land of Absolute Spirits are very rich, and some of them are even rare metals, which can be used to make all kinds of powerful and rare instruments...

Thinking of this, Jun Luo was stunned. The spiritual energy in this world cannot be used, let alone the refiner, so the mines these people dug should not be used for refining...

Then the whereabouts of these ores can be interesting.

Jun Luo touched his chin, "Are all the mines here controlled by forces?"

The old lady turned the sweet potato over, "You are smart."

"Then do you know where all these mined ores are sent?"

The old lady gave Jun Luo a deep look, "Knowing too much is not a good thing..."

"That's better than knowing nothing and dying here for no reason."

The old lady paused, but Jun Luo continued, "Since there is someone in charge, there must be miners. There is no doubt that the treatment of miners must be the worst, and they are even full of oppression. Since there is oppression, there will be miners." Resist, and where there is rebellion comes death..."

"A monk without spiritual power is equivalent to a warrior without armor, but he still needs food. It can be said that people control everything inside and out. So the death rate should not be low."

The old lady looked at Jun Luo again, with a little more appreciation.

"Yes, you guessed it all right, but so what?"

Jun Luo smiled, "Hold on for now, I'll go find my companion first."

The old lady stared at Jun Luo's face for a while, then shook her head, "I advise you not to, your face will ruin you."

Jun Luo has always been smart, so how could she fail to understand the old lady's implication, a fierce light flashed across her eyes, she blinked, and she had already returned to normal.

"Are the women here a resource for those rulers?"

The old lady handed the baked sweet potatoes to Jun Luo, "After leaving this house, you will find that most of the towns are men, and there are very few women.

Every once in a while, they will come here to recruit miners.

However, when they meet women of the right age, they will just grab them directly and will not give you a chance to refuse.

This place is an abyss for ordinary men, but it is hell for women. "
