The Nine Suns of the Otherworld

Those lucky people who were released soon discovered that Ye Ling's words were not just for nothing, and their treatment was much better than expected.

In the next few days, not only did they not have to work, but they also lived in a house that only the subordinates of the former lord could live in.

Before that, they could only live in some depressions and cracks in the mine that could barely shelter from the rain, eating and sleeping in the open.

In addition, the lord also distributed several sets of new clothes, meat food, medicine, quilts, and some simple daily necessities to everyone. These were things that no one dared to expect before, and life suddenly became more comfortable.

The saint-like noble woman who once healed the whipped young and old came to the dormitory every day, using that magical power to make the diseases that tortured many people disappear.

The stark difference makes these people who have suffered all kinds of hardships feel like they are in heaven, and Ye Ling's status has also become extremely lofty in the eyes of the first batch of people in just a few days .

Almost all the people are praying that the rule of this lord can be maintained forever, and the owner of the territory will never change again, because the chances of meeting a benevolent master in such a small territory are very low , if the lord changes again, people as weak and incapable of fighting as them may become slaves again.

And behind the mine, there is a palace-like building in stark contrast to the barren territory. If you walk into the palace, you will find it very luxurious.

Because, this is the lord's mansion common to previous generations of lords.

As a lord, naturally no one would wrong himself, so after the previous generations of lords occupied the territory, they enjoyed improving the layout again on the basis of the previous ones. The view is obviously very different from other people. There are bone artworks everywhere in the palace. After Ye Ling threw away all those eerie things, he restored it to its current appearance.

Just like his predecessor, Ye Ling unceremoniously took it as his own. Now, he is sitting on the large animal skin chair in the hall of the Lord's Mansion, listening carefully to something.

In front of him was a man with a slightly old face. This was one of the former old slaves, named Age. After several lords changed, he knew the situation of this ore field very well.

It was also the first time for Age to come to the lord's mansion. After all, it was impossible for the previous lords to allow dirty and degraded slaves to enter their luxurious residences.

After listening to A Ge's statement, Ye Ling asked, "Is this all you know?"

Age respectfully said: "Yes, my lord!"

"Very good, thanks for your hard work," Ye Ling waved his hand and said, "Go down first."

"Yes!" A Ge saluted, and then retreated to the gate of the Lord's Mansion before walking out.

Ye Ling, on the other hand, fell into deep thought. He had some doubts about this territory.

To be honest, the conditions in this territory are really very poor. Those ore fields can indeed produce some useful ores, but they are not worth much if they are sold.In addition, the conditions of climate, water source, food and other aspects are very bad, and it is no fun to stay here.Therefore, lords with a little bit of strength don't look down on this territory at all, and it is precisely because of this that Ye Ling takes it as his foothold.Because as long as you occupy it, you don't have to worry about being harassed by the strong again. Even if there are still people who want to replace you, they must be not very strong.

The previous lords could not even be called bandits. According to Age, the first lord he encountered was also the first lord who opened up this territory. It was only the realm of the sun, and his subordinates were even more The food is good, and the number of people is quite pitiful. The total number is less than 20. The later appointments are a little bit better, but they are still rubbish.

And this is where Ye Ling is strange. Although the overall strength of the necromancer and his minions is not very good compared to himself, but with two strong men in the galaxy realm and dozens of sun realms, he can go up to the sky. More than a hundred subordinates of the Moon Realm have been able to occupy a better territory with more oil and water, why did they choose this place as their target.

Moreover, when the necromancer killed the previous lord and occupied this territory, he changed the mining location and chose a location with a very low density of valuable minerals, which obviously minimized the benefits. A mage cannot be brainless. He can find out where to mine more money by asking any experienced slave, but he is brainlessly insisting on digging the current site, which is unscientific.

The third reason is that what the Mingzu longs for is power, and their desire for money is very weak, but that Mingzu came here to control slaves to mine. Could it be that he can't do anything when he is full?

Could it be that there are some unknown secrets in this territory?

At this time, the fox queen's voice came from her heart: "Hehe, you don't have to think about it, I already know the purpose of that Mingzu coming here!"

Ye Ling cheered up and said, "Really, sister Julie, you guessed it?"

"I didn't guess it, I saw it!" After saying this strange sentence, Ye Ling found that there was one more thing in his hand, needless to say, it was taken out from the storage space of Shura's glove by the Fox Demon Queen.

Ye Ling opened his palm and found that it was an ancient scroll. Seeing that it was quite old, he asked in surprise, "Sister Julie, could it be that this is something from ancient times?"

Because of Julie's relationship, Ye Ling also has some understanding of the ancient times. People in that era liked to record things with scrolls.

Julie said with certainty: "Yes, it does come from ancient times. I found it from the necromancer's bone ring. I looked at it out of curiosity, and I didn't expect it to be very rewarding!"

Ye Ling unfolded the scroll, and there were dense small characters and some strange patterns inside. They were all ancient characters. Ye Ling felt a little headache when he saw it: "Sister Julie, what is recorded in this scroll?"

"A place to hide corpses!"

Ye Ling was taken aback by Julie's words: "What, a place to hide corpses?"

Julie nodded and said: "That's right, and it should be a hiding place for a terrible guy. A powerful corpse is especially useful for necromancers, and it is buried deep in this land. Where did I get this news, so I came here and occupied a territory with no luxuries, the purpose is not to make money, but to dig out that corpse!"

Under the ground, there is still a thousand-year-old corpse hidden, Ye Ling shook his head: "Whatever it is, let's keep burying it, I'm not interested!"

"No, you want to inherit the will of the Hades and dig it out," Julie said with a smile, "Because I'm very interested in it!"

Ye Ling was a little dizzy: "Sister Julie, what do you want it for, you are not a necromancer!"

Julie said: "I am indeed not a necromancer, but I have mastered some strange arts that are similar to or even more powerful than necromancy!"

Ye Ling immediately remembered that Julie had learned a large number of forbidden techniques in the Book of the Dead in the Book of the Nether. In the previous trip to the Hundred Demon Stars, when she returned to the Fox Demon Palace to get the golden wind and jade dew, Julie had killed the seven ghosts. , using the ghosts in the book of the dead to make them into undead puppets, and successfully entered the palace by himself, those few powerful undead puppets contributed a lot.

But thinking of the scene at that time, Ye Ling still felt a little trembling: "Sister Julie, it's better not to, and you didn't say that ghosts can only temporarily revive corpses that have just died not long ago, and stimulate their vitality. And can't it exist for a long time? That ancient corpse has been dead for many years, and the ghost **** may not be able to bring him back to life again."

"No, I think it's very possible!" Julie explained: "Although necromancy can revive corpses that have been dead for a long time, the bodies and brains of those corpses have been destroyed, and resurrection cannot make good undead. Puppet, if the ancient corpse dug up by the Hades is like this, how could he spend so much effort. This shows that the corpse must be very different."

Ye Ling said decisively: "Even if it's really like this, but, Miss Julie, I will never let those poor people do that kind of inhuman heavy work again, the rocks here are too hard!"

The fox demon queen seemed to have expected that Ye Ling would not treat those liberated people cruelly, she laughed and said: "Don't worry, they don't have to do heavy work anymore, because you have something that can make hard rocks weak! "

Ye Ling nodded, and then blurted out: "You mean the eternal poison?"

"That's right, as long as you spend some Eternal Poison to degrade the rock, this job will become very easy. As long as you are willing, you can even find that place by relying on your own strength."

Seeing that Ye Ling was still hesitating, the fox demon queen continued to persuade: "Dig it, listen to me, boy, there is still a lot of eternal poison, you won't need too much, and it won't be a waste, I will There is a hunch that this corpse will become a treasure, you should trust a woman's intuition, usually it is not wrong."

Ye Ling sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Okay, Sister Julie, then I will follow your words. I hope our efforts will not be in vain!"

Unexpectedly, after becoming the owner of this territory, the first thing he did was to excavate mummies. This is really ridiculous enough!
