My cultivation script went astray
Chapter 47 Mountain Master
"Inspection?"
A miner got up in a daze, "Another inspection?"
They complained that every few months, someone from above would come down to inspect them, just to care about whether they were working hard, whether they were hiding anything, and so on.
And they had to suffer a lot, the supervision would increase a lot, the management was strict, and there was no chance to be lazy.
After a quick breakfast, the supervisor drove everyone out and they came to the ground they had been away from for a long time.
Chen Lang squinted and saw the golden color on the ground. For a moment, he didn't recognize it. It was the soft morning light, but it made him unable to open his eyes.
It has been a long time since he saw the sun.
He looked around and found that other miners were in a worse situation than him. They covered their eyes with their hands or simply turned their backs. Living in the dark for too long made them afraid of the light.
Long-term exposure to the dark made their skin look sickly pale, and they all looked like skinny monkeys. Many of them were monks, but their mental state was like that of exiled hungry people.
Around them, a dozen warriors wearing black armor and holding weapons stood, revealing a faint and powerful aura. Chen Lang had felt it from Senior Brother Han Tianxiao, Li Rui, and the Goddess Peak Master, and it should be the foundation-building cultivation.
Although it is not as strong as that of the sect disciples, the evil spirit is very heavy, giving people a full sense of pressure.
As expected, these are the mine guards.
But what surprised him was that the dozen supervisors who usually held whips and showed off their power also stood in a row at this moment. Their condition was much better and their aura was also very strong. After all, everyone had to supervise many miners, and if they were not strong enough, they would die suddenly.
After a while, a warrior wearing black armor and a helmet appeared.
"Hello, captain." The warrior guards saluted each other.
The captain of the guard nodded slightly, his eyes fell on the hundreds of miners and a dozen supervisors, and said coldly:
"The mountain master is coming to check today, you all should be more diligent. Those sneaky skills and the small tricks of hiding the raw ore should be put away.
It's okay if I see you at other times, I'm too lazy to bother with you, but if the mountain master sees you today, there will be only one result if you make a fool of yourself."
He gestured to his neck.
"Die!"
Then, the captain of the guard said again:
"The mountain master is very dissatisfied with your performance this year. It's the worst year! I have to be scolded for your laziness!
So, starting today, your workload will be doubled. Did you hear that?"
"This" Many miners looked very ugly. They were already struggling to survive at other times, and doubling their workload would kill them.
But they had no choice. If they didn't obey, these guards would kill them now.
"I heard it." They responded one after another.
The captain of the guard said something else, dismissed many miners, and returned to the dark underground. They picked up their tools and started to knock.
Shi Ming immediately found Chen Lang, "Chen Lang, you have to work today too, you can't be idle."
Chen Lang was promised a few days of rest before, but the mountain master came to inspect, so there was nothing he could do.
Chen Lang didn't resist, just work, wait for Brother Dan to come, you will be in trouble.
But he still asked, "Is the mountain master the owner of this Black Mountain Spirit Mine?"
"Yes, and I heard that he owns more than a dozen mines nearby, and this is just one of them." Shi Ming whispered, which he heard from a guard.
"What is his cultivation level?" Chen Lang asked.
"I don't know, at least in the middle and late stages of foundation building."
Chen Lang wondered, if he killed the mountain master, would it be considered destroying the mine? Unfortunately, the gift given by Zhong Haoran on his hand was scratched off, and he couldn't deal with it.
And even if he killed him, he felt that a new mountain master would appear, and it would not be considered destroying the Black Mountain Spirit Mine.
So, he returned to the No. 214 mine, next to an empty car. According to the requirements, he had to fill a car today.
And the nearby Jin Ye was even worse. He had to load two cars today. The task was not as simple as doubling.
The tasks were not evenly distributed, but "the more capable, the more work". Jin Ye was the most skilled among the miners, so he should do the most.
Chen Lang began to work hard.
He used his spiritual power to swing the shovel and pickaxe, and the earth and rocks fell down. The rocks collided with dazzling sparks, and occasionally some stones with spiritual power fell out.
Ten minutes later, a thin layer of soil was piled at the bottom of the mine car.
"Damn, this is not a job for humans." Chen Lang wiped his sweat. He understood why others were exhausted. If they did this every day, they would only have a few spiritual stones to restore their physical strength in a month. No one could bear it. How could they use it as a disposable battery?
He sat down to rest and tried to recover, but the recovery was not much. If it continued for a long time without nourishment, he would definitely become ill from overwork.
Suddenly, he heard noisy footsteps outside, and a group of people came along the main mine road.
"Mountain Master, please."
"Move the mine cart, don't block the mountain master's way!"
The footsteps were accompanied by shouts, approaching quickly.
The real master is coming?
Chen Lang pulled out a dustpan of ore and loaded it onto the mine cart. He saw a group of guards welcoming a man in a white robe. His clothes were not stained with dust, and he walked with his hands behind his back. The stones on the ground were cleaned up and very flat.
Many dark and skinny monkeys came out nearby, and secretly observed from the side while unloading.
Chen Lang felt that this person's cultivation was probably stronger than those old inner disciples of the Goddess Peak Master, but definitely not as good as Zhou Tianzheng and that cheap master.
At least, he could still sense the breath of this person.
"Master, look, these people are hardworking, honest and willing to work, and they are all in high spirits." The captain of the guard quickly introduced the progress of the past few months.
"Thank you for your hard work." The master of the mountain said.
"Hey, working for the sect, what's the hard work."
The captain of the guard also talked about the output, "We can produce 30,000 kilograms of raw ore this month. I asked them to work harder, and 40,000 kilograms next month will not be a problem."
"Don't talk big, do your work honestly. The Tianjian Sect has suffered some accidents recently, and they are very urgent." The master of the mountain said.
"Yes, yes, yes." The captain of the guard nodded repeatedly.
At this point, the master of the mountain paused for a moment, "Has the Law Hall recently escorted a serious criminal here?"
"Yes." The captain of the guard said, "If you want, I will go back and check the information and give it to you later."
"No need, I just asked casually." The master of the mountain waved his hand and continued to patrol.
But at this time, there was a sudden noise from the back, and two supervisors carried a miner out, and he was no longer breathing.
"Why is there another death?" The master of the mountain turned around and asked.
The supervisor said, "It should be internal injuries from the fight yesterday."
The captain of the guard secretly said it was troublesome. Why didn't he die earlier or later, but at this time.
The mountain master frowned slightly, "How do you manage it normally? Don't kill people all the time. My people are very expensive. If it affects your performance, you can go to the mine to dig."
"We must strictly manage it." The captain of the guard said in a deep voice.
The miners next to him looked at him without saying anything. It was obvious that he died suddenly. They could see it. How could the mountain master not know? He was just holding it.
"Alas." Not far away, Mr. Jin was lying on the mine car and sighed softly.
"Is there something sad?" Chen Lang asked.
Mr. Jin shook his head, "I actually thought about it a long time ago. This is also a relief, but I don't want to accept my fate. I want to fight for it."
He was already in a sluggish state, his Tao foundation was about to be exhausted, and he was beaten by Chen Lang. Now old and new injuries broke out, and he knew that he didn't have much time.
Seeing the dead today, he seemed to have a glimpse of his future.
Chen Lang's heart moved, "Do you want the spirit stone?"
"Yes, who doesn't want it?"
"Then I'll help you." Chen Lang said.
"Do you have it?"
Chen Lang didn't say anything, walked to Jin Ye's side, raised his arm and chopped Jin Ye's neck with a knife.
"Jin Ye, you died miserably."
A loud scream spread throughout the mine tunnel, and the group of guards were all frightened, and the captain of the guard almost exploded.
Damn it, just after I dealt with one thing, another one came, you guys are always against me, right?
