Summon the Big Boss

Chapter 815 Iron Palm
Lin Xi can directly intervene in Zhang Lu's fate.

Let him become a god and a fairy in an instant during an adventure from heaven.

However, wouldn't this be too boring?
What's more... For the entire Chaos City, this is the first battle of the heavens in the Chaos City.

Lin Xi also wanted to try... whether he could take advantage of this momentum and cultivate a worthy talent in his own city.

Qualifications, luck, bloodlines and even ingenuity, these are not valued by Lin Xi.

Because these can actually be obtained through the transformation of foreign objects.

If you have to say, what is Lin Xi's fancy about Zhang Lu...beyond the illusory eyes.

It is because he is strong enough and sad enough... But even so, he did not degenerate into a demon.

From a victim to a shameless perpetrator.

Lin Xi himself may not be a good devil, but if it is to train subordinates... then he must hope that this subordinate has some bottom line.

Zhang Lu has suffered a lot, so of course he won't be the Virgin.

But in his heart, there is an unshakable bottom line that must be adhered to... This can become the cornerstone of his loyalty to Lin Xi in the future after he has achieved something.

People with high conduct will choose to betray the kindness of the past for the sake of morality and standards in their hearts.

And for those whose bottom line is too low... or who don't have any at all, the price of their betrayal will be too low, so it's easy... they will choose to turn against each other under the temptation of interests.

In contrast, Zhang Lu, who looks like an ordinary person but is actually not so ordinary, is more pleasing.

Lin Xi moved his eyes away, and his eyes kept jumping in different worlds.

However, a ray of mind continued to fall on Zhang Lu.

Lin Xi understood, except that he was betting on the cultivation of candidates.

Whether it's the Azure Dragon Demon Sage, the Mu Family's Half-Sage, Bai Xuan, or the Dream Sword Master...they all have someone to choose.

They can't end by themselves.

But they will look for a proxy to take their place in the battle of the worlds in Chaos City.

This can be a kind of evidence for one's own morality.

It is also the beginning of a chess game.

The chess game in the game will have an obvious beginning.

But in real life... people who are qualified to play chess, when they started and when they made a move... there is no trace at all.

In the world where Zhang Lu lives, the story of Zhang Lu is still going on.

"First of all, you are not allowed to hide energy crystals privately. You must hand them over before leaving the well. If you find any private possessions, you will be shot dead by the guards." The old miner who was in charge of introducing Zhang Lu said it very lightly.

However, Zhang Lu did not dare to listen casually.

Look around, those soldiers standing on high towers, guarding all directions... and locking every miner with sniper rifles at all times.

Zhang Lu can guarantee that there will never be a false word in what the old miner said.

"Secondly, it is strictly forbidden to bring any sharp instruments down the mine. All mining work is done by hands. The energy crystal is fragile and will be destroyed if you are not careful. A broken energy crystal is useless, and the consequences of destroying the energy crystal are very serious. If the accumulatively destroyed energy crystals exceed three taels, they will also be executed!" The old miner talked about the second rule.

This made Zhang Lu frowned, even though he had put life and death aside from time to time.

But... before the vengeance has been avenged and the grievances have not been washed away, he is unwilling to die meaninglessly.

"You can't destroy the energy crystal...and it sounds like the energy crystal is not big. Otherwise, if you destroy a slightly larger energy crystal...you may be shot directly." Zhang Lu thought.

"Thirdly, you are not allowed to leave the mine at will without permission. Even if you want to leave, you must first go through three audits, and you can only leave after the audit."

"The fourth energy crystal cannot be immersed in water, so it is strictly forbidden to discharge any bodily fluids in the mine."

The old miner said a total of ten rules, and the suffix of most of the rules is 'shot'. Such strict regulations are not rule of law at all.

However, as a person who has seen the darkness of the world, Zhang Lu doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it.

During the six months of wandering.

He has seen addicts with drug addiction attacks, who dared to kill with a knife for a mere 2000 yuan.

He had seen someone put a helpless old homeless man on the side of the road in a sack, dragged him into the wild and beat him up, and finally dumped his body in the wilderness just to vent the violence in his heart.

I have also seen wild dogs in the city, hiding in the dark and damp alleys like wolves, peeping at the well-dressed pedestrians... as if looking at delicious prey.

Civilization and barbarism, city and desert... Sometimes they are not necessarily completely separated, maybe they are also an alternative whole.

The rules for miners are very strict... In contrast, their treatment is indeed very good.

As a formal miner, the annual salary plus allowance is almost one million yuan. This kind of salary is something that Zhang Lu never dared to think about in the past.Not only that, as long as you work for three years, you can get the rank of a first-class non-commissioned officer.

This made Zhang Lu's eyes shine. If he can become a non-commissioned officer of a certain level, then he wants to overturn the case...at least at the official level, he has a little relationship.

Even if it's still weak...

During the three days, Zhang Lu earnestly learned from the old miners how to collect energy crystals accurately and completely.

After another week of repeated practice, they went down the mine together under the care of the old miner.

The mine is very deep, about [-] meters straight down into the ground.

After that, the mine pits extended in all directions, and there were no mine carts in the mine pits, because every energy crystal had to be stored in a high-grade thermostat.

Under the leadership of the old miner, Zhang Lu entered a mine road and reached the end of the mine road.

On a stone wall at the end of the mine, there is a faint halo of light flashing, which is very obvious under the dark mine.

The old miner rubbed his hands on the rock wall as a demonstration, but his rough palms were like steel brushes grinding down the sand on the rock wall, exposing a small rice grain-sized energy crystal wrapped in the sand.

Carefully snap off the sandstone around the energy crystal with fingers, then use a towel to catch the falling energy crystal, and then put the energy crystal into the high-grade constant temperature box hanging on the waist. Everything seems very skillful, although it is not easy.

Just rubbing away a layer of rock with the palm of your hand is enough to marvel at it.

"Okay! You just try to dig here! I will go to another mine. Remember not to worry at the beginning, it is better to be slower than to hurt the energy crystal. There are cameras connected to the monitor in each mine, Someone will see it." The old miner walked out of the mine while holding the box on his waist, and walked towards another mine.

Zhang Lu tried to rub his palms against the rock wall as he practiced, and his palms felt burning pain when rubbed against the uneven rock wall.

Zhang Lu didn't stop weakly because of this, but continued rubbing until his palms were hot and tingling, and the skin might be broken before he stopped.Because there may be blood oozing from a broken palm, this is also not allowed.

Physical pain... In fact, to Zhang Lu, it was a kind of comfort.

When a person's soul feels too much pain, but cannot release it.

Physical self-torture, on the contrary, is an inexplicable relief.

After wiping his palms with a towel to avoid sweat remaining on his palms, Zhang Lu continued to rub his hands against the wall.

This friction lasted for a long time, but there was no change in the rock wall, as if Zhang Lu was just doing useless work all the time.

When work was over, Zhang Lu had nothing to gain.

Many miners silently gathered directly below the mine, waiting for the crane to come down.Almost all of them made eye contact with each other, and no one spoke.

On the second day after going down the well, Zhang Lu successfully dug out an energy crystal in the evening.

Holding this energy crystal in his hand, Zhang Lu seemed to see a faint hope.

Then I carefully hid this little bit of hope...afraid that it would be easily swallowed up in the darkness that could not see the edge....

The energy crystal is very beautiful, as if there are grains of star-like dust flowing in the amber transparent crystal.

In the next half a month, every three to five days, Zhang Lu will gain something, basically no different from most miners.Like the old miner Yuan Xiang who took him before, there are not many people who can easily collect energy crystals from the rock wall, or he is the only one in this mine.

All the miners know that Yuan Xiang has a secret, but... it doesn't really matter.

After all, it is a 'civilized' mine, not a bitter kiln.

No matter how strict the regulations are... it is only for the protection of energy crystals and to avoid being stolen by private individuals. As for the daily output of miners... there is no hard and fast rule.

No matter how much you collect, the treatment is the same, as long as you don't damage the energy crystal.

After the most important snow-burning festival every year, the weather in Beimo becomes more and more severe. The heavy snow covers up the dusty and noisy world. It may be because there are energy crystal mines under the mine, but it is not very cold. The miners are still working keep working.

The army has a great demand for energy crystals. The officer in charge of contacting the old miner Yuan Xiang has been urging the workers to rush to work recently.

Zhang Lu guessed that this kind of energy crystal may be related to some kind of weapon that needs special materials.

It's just that the news is saying that world peace...only local...and in small areas that are not valued by the world, there are wars.

So what is it that makes the army so anxious to harvest energy crystals?
boom!
The strong wind whipped up snow waves, which broke through the barrier of the windshield and poured into the deep mine shaft.

A bitterly cold gust of wind rushed in in an instant.

The miners retreated into the depths of the mine in fear, waiting for rescue.

Filling the well with heavy snow is the biggest disaster, because the snow melts and becomes water, and the Nengjing Mine is the most water-proof.Therefore, the soldiers in charge of rescue need to take out the heavy snow little by little. They cannot directly melt the snow with boiling water, let alone use fire.

The closed mines lacked food, warm clothing and even air.

A day later, some miners went crazy in fear, and rushed frantically towards the snow that continued to spread to the depths of the mine, and were then covered by heavy snow.By the time it was dragged out, the corpse was frozen stiff.

Two days later, some miners couldn't bear the hunger, and tried to rely on eating a lot of snow to resist hunger and thirst, and then died of dehydration in the cold.

For three or four days, the hope of survival became increasingly slim. The remaining miners looked at each other with green eyes, as if they were about to bite off a piece of meat from each other at any time.

Yuan Xiang was old, suffered from the wind and cold, developed a high fever due to lack of food, and his will became blurred.

Several miners finally couldn't bear the hunger and surrounded Yuan Xiang.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Lu stood in front of Yuan Xiang, holding a piece of energy crystal in his hand.

"You guys take another step, and I will crush this energy crystal. The substance overflowing from the energy crystal will remain on our bodies, and the energy crystal in my hand exceeds three taels." This energy crystal is Zhang Lu. It was accidentally excavated after being sealed underground for the past few days. It is in excellent condition. If it is handed over, it will be regarded as a great achievement.

Looking at the Neng Jing in Zhang Lu's hand, several miners showed fear on their faces.

If Zhang Lu was serious, then even if they ate Yuan Xiang, it would only delay the time of death.

There are special military dogs domesticated in the mine, and they can smell whether there is a broken energy crystal on the miner's body.

"Okay! Wang Chou! You are amazing, just wait for us. Wait a few more days, we won't eat Yuan Xiang, we will eat you." A dark and short miner looked at Zhang Lu fiercely, and threatened Several miners backed away, but they always looked at Zhang Lu and Yuan Xiang with hungry wolf eyes.

Zhang Lu is very familiar with this kind of eyes, he has seen many of them in the six months of wandering, and he himself has had such eyes before.In the face of hunger, no matter how civilized people are, they will degenerate into beasts at any time.

On the fifth day after being buried by heavy snow, the mine was finally dug out, and the miners who had already fainted from hunger were carried out of the mine.But this time, a total of nine miners died underground.Their families would receive a $500 million windfall, whether it be an inheritance from a distant relative or an unexpected lottery win.

But their traces will be deliberately erased by invisible forces, and gradually even their closest people will forget them.

Zhang Lu got a week of recuperation time, and Yan Yu brought him some supplements and food through repeated investigations, and was sent out without chatting with Zhang Lu.Although he is the boss of this mine in name, he has no right to intervene in the affairs of this mine at all.All he had to do was to spread suspicion outside and make countless people believe that he was a mine owner who owned an ordinary small mine that was very inconspicuous and did not produce much.

Of course, at critical moments...he is also a warning light, a siren.

If there are foreign forces, they want to intervene in the energy crystal mine.

Then the owner of the mine must be targeted first... Yan Yu.

"Can I come in?" Yuan Xiang had already opened the door and walked in while speaking.

He recovered very quickly, even much faster than Zhang Lu, and he was not at all like the situation he was in the mine before.Obviously someone used some rare special medicine on him.

"Do you have anything to do with me?" Zhang Lu looked at Yuan Xiang with indifference and resistance.

Yuan Xiang sat directly beside the bed, and then said sullenly: "You saved me, and I won't hide it from you. I know you have always wanted to learn mining skills from me. I have heard about your situation. difficult."

For Zhang Lu, the bloody past is almost like a nightmare, but in the eyes of others, it is just the ups and downs and difficulties of life, and people know it by themselves like drinking water.

"My method is also very simple to say, a rough iron palm handed down from my ancestors, now it is the world of guns... It is useless to learn it. It is easy to kill people when you are young, but you can use it when you are young Fighting fiercely, getting old...you have to use your life to make up for the lack of energy and blood, if you are willing to learn...I am willing to teach you, among other things, it is very useful for mining." Yuan Xiang said rigidly.

It seems that he is not a very expressive person.

Zhang Ludao: "Learn! Why don't you learn?"
