Open Treasure Chest Through Konoha

Soon, Bai Mingyu followed them, walking up the mountain from the path behind the village.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

There are many mountains near the village, not a lone peak, but a continuous mountain range.

Looking up from the foot of the mountain, there is a lush dark green in the eyes, and the dense forest covers the entire mountain range like an ocean. From time to time, there are a few goshawks flying across the sky with their wings outstretched, making high-pitched whistles. Voice.

"How far is it?"

On the way up the mountain, Bai Mingyu asked casually.

Among the two youths, one of them named Toshio Saeki smiled honestly, pointed to a mountain in the distance and said, "It's the mine over there, it's about an hour away, because the mountain roads in the vicinity are very It is rugged, and there are no direct roads in many places. You have to go around the nearby woods or small rivers, but don't worry, people in our village have walked this road for many years, even if you close your eyes. If you can go there, you will definitely not lead the wrong way.”

"yes……"

Bai Mingyu nodded, slightly squinting his eyes and looking into the distance.

In fact, if he is alone, it is quite easy to go there, just fly over.But because these two villagers were still there, and because he didn't know the way, he could only restrain his temper and walk forward like a car.

Along the way, I passed through several dense forests and waded through several small rivers. From time to time along the way, I could see a few pheasants or squirrels running through the bushes, and they didn't look very afraid of people.

in an hour.

Finally came near the mine.

"It's just ahead."

Saeki Toshio pointed to the front not far away, while talking, he quickened his pace, pushed aside the branches and bushes on both sides and walked forward.

There are several dark mines ahead.

It seems that a few caves that can accommodate two or three people walking side by side have been dug out of the rocks on the mountain wall by human power. Outside the mine caves are some scattered carts, Mining tools such as shovels and shovels have obviously been used for some years. The surface of the shovel is covered with mottled rust marks, and the handle is also obviously worn.

In front of the mine, there are three or four tents, and a fence made of branches and thorns and vines.

Seven or eight young men who looked like militiamen were sitting on the ground. Some of them carried simple bows and arrows on their backs, and some held hatchets in their hands. They all looked ready to fight.

It seems that they are the villagers of this village stationed here.

Seeing Bai Mingyu and his party, several young people stood up one after another.

The other accompanying young man walked over to explain to them, while Saeki Toshio pushed aside the fence and brought Bai Mingyu to the front of the mine.

When I got closer, I saw some white sandy soil piled up on the bottom of these trucks.

"Are these the ores you mined from the mine?"

Bai Mingyu stopped in front of the bucket truck.

"Yes."

Saeki Toshio nodded in response, walked to one of the trucks, bent over and pawed in the pit for a while, and pulled out a piece of metal ore the size of a baby's fist, then turned and walked to Bai Mingyu: "Lord Esdesh You see, this is the kind of stone we just mined in the last month. It seems to be called something according to the elders in the village... Gold carat metal, it is said that as long as there is a small piece of this size, you can bring it to the city. Comparable to the price of a dozen catties of gold...

We don't know whether these words are true or not, but in the past month, several people from business groups have come and offered high prices to purchase these metals from us. The village chief and the others haven't discussed yet. As a result, I didn't expect to be targeted by those bandits..."

"Golden Carat..."

Is that chakra conductive metal...

Bai Mingyu was powerless to complain, but listened to Sabairo Toshio's words, his eyes moved slightly, and some thoughts vaguely emerged in his heart:

"Did that gang of bandits work in this area before?"

Toshio Zuobai was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and thought for a while, and said: "We have also heard of such a group of bandits roaming in the mountains in the west, and several villages in the west have been looted by them. , but because there is nothing valuable in our village, there are nothing else on the nearby mountains except these few iron mines, so they have never been patronized by them.

Or in the recent period, they may have heard about the discovery of this kind of mineral in our village from somewhere, and they suddenly appeared..."

"Understood……"

Bai Mingyu nodded, took the ore from Toshio Saeki and looked at it.

This stone looks unremarkable, with a gray color. At first glance, it looks not much different from ordinary stones, but when you look closely, you will see circles of dotted crystals dotted on it, as if It was like a black crystal, with a layer of dark light flickering faintly.

"This thing..."

Bai Mingyu was a little uncertain.

Most of his understanding of chakra conductive metals is theoretical knowledge, and he has never seen a real ore, but judging from this pattern, it seems to be extraordinary.

"Let's try it first."

Bai Mingyu took a slight breath, secretly mobilized a trace of thunder-attribute chakra, and poured it into the ore.

If it is an ordinary stone, because it cannot absorb chakra, it will often be unable to bear it and split directly at this time, but the stone in Bai Mingyu's hand is like a sponge, absorbing all the chakra he injected, In the blink of an eye, a dazzling white light gradually appeared.

Bai Mingyu weighed it lightly a few times, then raised his hand and threw the ore out.

Bang! !

The stone accurately hit the trunk of a big tree more than [-] meters away, and then, accompanied by a muffled sound, the lightning-type chakra stored in it exploded, and the powerful destructive force tore a trail on the hard tree trunk. There are gaps, and the edges of the gaps show scorched black marks, which look like they have been struck by lightning.

Seeing this scene, Toshio Saeki and several other young villagers opened their eyes wide with horror on their faces.

For them who don't even understand the concept of chakra, this scene can only be described as incredible.

Bai Mingyu was quietly relieved.

It seems that this ore is indeed a chakra conductive metal mine.However, there was a slight deviation from the expectation. He originally thought that the entire stone was composed of chakra conductive metals, but in fact, only a small part of the stone was chakra conductive metals, while the other parts were chakra conductive metals. It is composed of some metal impurities such as iron and tin.

If it is really purified...

From an ore that weighs almost a catty, only a dozen grams of chakra conductive metal can be extracted.

Bai Mingyu thought for a while, then took a few steps forward,

Standing at the entrance of the mine and looking underground, a gust of cold and damp air was blowing up, mixed with a pungent smell like sulfur, Bai Mingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, held his breath, and sprinkled it from the top of his head The faint sunlight looked down.In the depths of the deep mine, on the rugged mountain walls on both sides, there are faintly dotted spots of light, shining brightly in the darkness.

Obviously, they were all the stones he was holding just now.

Although the proportion of chakra conductive metal in the ore is not high,

However, if such a large mine is mined and extracted, it must not be a small amount.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"It seems that this time I really received a big deal..."

Bai Mingyu stood in front of the mine and looked at it for a while, then stepped back and let out a long breath of foul air.

Now that it has been confirmed that the ore in this mine is indeed a chakra conductive metal, the next thing to consider is how to keep this batch of ore.

After thinking for a while, Bai Mingyu looked back at Toshio Saeki beside him, and asked, "If you call all the miners in your village to mine all the ore in this mine, how long will it take?"

"This one……"

Toshio Saeki scratched his scalp, thought for a while, and then said hesitatingly: "I can't figure it out well, there are dozens of young and middle-aged miners in our village, and they dig a hundred and ten catties a day... Take this mine It will take more than a month to dig out all the ore in the cave..."

"A month..."

Bai Mingyu made a mental calculation.

If fifty kilograms of ore can be dug up a day, then if it is refined into chakra conductive metal, it will be about one or two kilograms, and it will be nearly a hundred catties in a month.This number does not sound like much, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that it is not a small number——

After all, it is impossible for a ninja tool to be cast entirely with this kind of metal. The main part is still steel, and each ninja tool only needs to be mixed with a few hundred grams of chakra conductive metal.

If you want to cast ninja tools of the same level as the seven ninja knives in Wuyin Village, you may need to use more, but judging from the weight of the ninja tools themselves, you can use at most three to five catties.

In this way, the ore in this mine must be enough to make dozens of ninja tools.

In the world of Naruto, except for the five major ninja villages, the number of ninja villages in ordinary small countries is almost a few dozen.

That is to say...

"Is it enough to equip a ninja village..."

And when every ninja in a ninja village has a weapon made of chakra conductive metal, the overall strength of the village will undoubtedly be greatly improved, although it is not as good as the five major ninja villages, but Compared with small countries of the same level, it already has an overwhelming advantage.

In all fairness, if Bai Mingyu was the leader of a small ninja village, after learning the news, he would also take risks for the rise of the village.

"It seems that the situation may be more difficult than expected, but let's make some routine preparations first."

Bai Mingyu squatted down, opened the ninja tool bag, and took out a bunch of tangled metal wires from inside.

This kind of metal wire is also a kind of ninja tool. It is usually used to wrap around trees or stones, cover it with soil and leaves, and arrange traps with detonating symbols, which are similar to booby traps.Even if the intruders cannot be wiped out directly, it can also play the role of demonstration and early warning.

Observed the situation around the mine,

Bai Mingyu walked slowly into a sparse forest, slowly pulled out a slender metal wire, wrapped it around the thick tree trunk a few times, then covered it with grass blades and soil, and then slowly smoothed it out with the palm of his hand. The traces on it, until it is almost impossible to see the clues of passive hands and feet from the outside.

After finishing all this, Bai Mingyu lifted his foot over the metal wire on the ground and walked to the other side of the forest...

……

Like the ability to detect intelligence, setting traps is also one of the compulsory courses for ninjas. Although it may seem inconspicuous, it can exert unexpected power under specific timing and occasions.A typical example is Hiduan in the original book, who has an incomprehensible immortal body, but is finally buried in a trap carefully designed by Shikamaru.

Uzuki Xiyan was proficient in this technique when she was in Lu Jiuban before.

In addition, Hyuga Asuka and others from Anbu Sixth Division are also quite good at this technique.

Bai Mingyu stayed in Anbu for more than half a year, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he also mastered a few tricks. It took him two hours to set up five or six traps around the mine.As long as someone breaks into this area from these directions, the mechanism will be triggered, and they will be hit by various traps such as metal wires, detonating symbols, and kunai in a very short time. Even if they do not die on the spot, they will lose most of them. Resistance.

A few jumps back to the mine,

Bai Mingyu said to Saeki Toshio and the others: "When you come here in the future, be careful not to walk in the directions I stayed in just now, or you will die. Also, does anyone know the stronghold of the bandits before?"

Several villagers looked at each other and shook their heads.

"All right……"

Bai Mingyu shrugged his shoulders, looking beyond the rocks to the mountains to the west.

Into the eyes of a pile of mountains.

but……

His eyes fell on a certain place in the mountains, Bai Mingyu squinted his eyes slightly, and several groups of dark green and black halos were faintly flickering in his mind: "This distance...is about twenty kilometers? Is it a bandit's lair, or... a lair of something else?"
