The rest of the Dihuo members and miners also came over and thanked Xing He sincerely.

"It's okay. You're welcome. If you don't want to see these monsters in the mine, remember to light up the dark areas around you."

Xing He waved his hand and also kindly told everyone about the monster refresh mechanism.

"I understand. I will ask the members of the Earth Fire to arrange it. I will also ask the Earth Fire to present a gift to express our gratitude."

Xier said this very seriously, which made Xing He feel a little embarrassed.

"No need for a thank you gift. If you really want to thank me, just let me dig some ore in this vein."

Xing He had noticed before that when the two members of the Earth Fire Group told Xier, they mentioned that there was a mineral vein here!

Mineral vein!

In the MC's mineral veins, you can easily dig up several groups of ores, which is much more efficient than mining in fishbone mines or underground mines!

"Of course no problem!" Xier and the miners agreed immediately.

Compared with Xing He's life-saving grace, the mineral vein is nothing!

It is impossible for Xing He to mine all the mines. If he hesitated, it would be disrespectful to his savior.

Xi'er also kindly reminded him, "Xing He, this is an iron ore vein. Because the refining level in the lower area is not high, its value may not be very good. If you mind, I can take you to the earth marrow vein."

Iron ore vein?!

Isn't that better!

Xing He shook his head decisively and refused.

"I want iron."

As for his achievements in iron, he still had some things to accomplish.

One of the achievements for [Recruit Reinforcements] requires him to summon an iron golem.

Originally, Xing He was planning to temporarily give up on this achievement that required four iron blocks and a pumpkin to complete, but now seeing this iron ore vein, it seems that it can be completed?

Xing He looked at the iron ore vein with envy.

I can’t dig it all out, I can’t dig it all out at all, I need chain collection!

Chapter 35: Let the miners see Steve's mining efficiency

"In that case, let's wait here for a while. I also want to study these zombies that I have never seen before."

Seeing that Xing He was going to mine, Dan Heng simply chose to take a rest in this mining area. After all, Xier would definitely have to stay here for a while and wait for the reinforcements from Dihuo to arrive before she could leave with peace of mind.

"Then I..."

I took a look around March 7th and found that it seemed like I had nothing to do?

Dan Heng is studying zombies, Xier is taking care of the wounded, and Xing He is mining. What about her?

"Then I'll go back and get something!"

San Yueqi thought about it and turned around and ran in the direction they came from.

Dan Heng and Xing He thought that since she was going to a town, there shouldn't be any danger, so they ignored San Yueqi and started to busy themselves with their own things.

"My benefactor, do you need me to teach you how to mine?"

Several miners gathered around Xing He very enthusiastically. Xing He's actions this time not only saved the lives of everyone on the scene, but also saved their families to some extent.

Life in the lower class is already difficult. Without these pillars of the family who make money from mining, their families would probably starve to death sooner or later.

Moreover, the skills Xing He demonstrated today will ensure that they will have a way to deal with those zombies in the future when Xing He is not present.

For them, these favors cannot be repaid with just a simple thank you.

Unfortunately, they were poor and could not thank Xing He materially, so they could only pass on the few skills they were good at to Xing He.

However, Xing He smiled and waved his hand, then took out the pickaxe from his backpack and showed it to the miners.

"No need, I actually know a thing or two about mining."

When the miners saw Xing He take out a pickaxe that was so rough that even the pickaxe head was not polished smooth, they all sneered in their hearts.

But they certainly wouldn't laugh in front of their savior, but that didn't stop them from looking down on the pickaxe in Xing He's hand.

"My benefactor, although mining seems to be just swinging a pickaxe and hammering at minerals, there is actually a lot of knowledge involved! A good pickaxe can save a lot of effort!"

A miner took out a pickaxe and wanted to hand it to Xing He, but was rejected again by Xing He.

"No need for that. I have one that's more convenient to use. You can keep your pickaxes for yourself."

After saying that, Xing He turned and walked towards the vein, swinging his pickaxe at a small piece of exposed iron ore.

The group of miners still gathered around him and chattered to persuade Xing He.

"My benefactor, mining requires skills and cannot be done casually. If reinforcement work is not done properly, it is likely to cause landslides, which will not only affect life safety, but also delay subsequent mining work!"

"Yeah, yeah! Or let us guys show you how to do it!"

But just as they finished speaking, Xing He knocked off a square piece of iron ore, leaving a one cubic meter gap in the vein in front of him.

This stunned the miners. How could such a square gap not cause a landslide?

However, it should be that this benefactor was just lucky, as he happened to dig into a place where the mineral vein structure was tight, so there was no landslide.

However, what happened next made the miners open their mouths in surprise.

It was seen that Xing He's mining speed was very fast. It often only took less than two seconds to mine a one cubic meter gap!

You know, for these veteran miners to dig out a gap of this size regardless of the risk of landslides, it would take at least minutes, and at least double digits!

It's impossible to be as easy as Xing He!

While they were surprised, Xing He continued to mine. In less than a minute, he had dug a two-meter-high and one-meter-wide passage in the iron ore vein in front of him that was large enough for a person to walk through.

The miners followed him into the passage curiously. From time to time, they looked at the rock walls on both sides of the passage, but could not find any trace of iron ore. It was obvious that Xing He had dug very cleanly without leaving any iron ore residue.

One of the miners couldn't help swallowing and poked his companion with his elbow.

"I am a little skeptical now whether my benefactor can really dig out this iron ore vein."

The companion began to doubt at this time, but he still replied tremblingly: "It shouldn't be possible? Although the benefactor's mining method is magical, it is very laborious to mine so much."

Just as he said, Xing He, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped after digging for a while. He glanced at his fullness and found that it was almost gone.

However, before Xing He could take out the two pieces of rotten meat dropped by the zombies from his backpack to restore his satiety, March 7's voice came from outside the passage.

"Please give way!"

The miners crowded in the passage immediately leaned sideways and pressed against the wall to let March 7, who was holding a pile of food that looked like bread in his arms, come in.

San Yue Qi looked at the two pieces of rotten meat in Xing He's hand and pinched his nose in disgust: "Don't eat these things! They are not good for your health. Come on! If you eat these, I know you will be hungry."

When San Yue Qi heard that Xing He was going to mine, he immediately guessed that he would be hungry, and a hungry Xing He would definitely take out those strange things to eat.

When they were alone in private, Xing He would just eat a little, just out of curiosity.

But eating in front of so many people would be bad if outsiders misunderstood that Xing He was mentally ill.

"Timely rain, March! I love you!"

When Xing He saw the food brought by San Yueqi, he took it happily and started to chew it with a crunch.

Even though the way he chewed the bread with one hand looked a bit wolfish, it was at least better than eating garbage and rotten meat!

San Yue Qi stood aside with her hands on her hips and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't say things like that to girls casually!"

Xing He didn't care. He just said it casually. After eating the bread, he continued to swing the pickaxe to dig ore. At the same time, he did not forget to put down a few furnaces on the spot to burn the minerals.

While keeping warm beside the furnace, San Yueqi asked Xing He, "How much have you dug?"

"It's almost a set, but it's still a little short."

Iron ingots are very basic minerals and are needed in many places.

If conditions permit, Xing He plans to study whether he can use people from another world to act as villagers to build the iron-brushing machine.

"Okay, then you do your best. Anyway, I took a look at Xi'er and the others before I came in. It will take them another hour or two to finish dealing with the things outside. This time is enough for you to dig."

Chapter 36 The Ancient Greek God of Emeralds

Out of curiosity, a miner reached out and touched the furnace that Xing He had placed beside him. As soon as his hand touched it, the same smelting scene that he had seen before March 7 suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

I saw that the crude iron inside was being smelted into an iron ingot at a very stable and fast speed.

"Fuck!!!"

When the miner saw this scene, he was so surprised that he cursed.

The other miners were startled by his sudden swearing.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you cursing?"

"No, no! It's this square furnace, it...it..."

"What's wrong with it?"

“It’s really fucking awesome!”

"?"

The excited miner only regretted that he was uneducated and could not find the right words to describe the magical furnace before him.

The other miners really didn't understand what he was saying, so they simply touched the furnace themselves.

The result was that in the long and narrow passage, the sound of "Oh my God" could be heard continuously.

San Yueqi, who was walking in front and chatting with Xing He, noticed the noise coming from behind him, so he turned around curiously and asked the miners, "What happened?"

The miners pointed at the furnace with fanatical eyes, their voices trembling with excitement.

"Miss, this furnace burns iron so fast? Can the purity of the iron ingots be guaranteed?"

When San Yueqi heard that the miners were somewhat skeptical about whether Xing He's furnace was really that good, he immediately put his hands on his hips and explained proudly.

"Hehe! You don't know this! Everything our Xing He makes is very magical! Even the small wooden boat he made casually can trap Xi'er of the Earth Fire and make her unable to move! You can go to Xi'er to confirm the truth of this matter!"

"What?! Can Miss Xier be trapped with just a wooden boat?"

Since March Seven said so, the miners naturally no longer had any doubts. After all, there was no need for March Seven to talk about such things. Xier was outside and they could find out by just asking.

San Yue Qi turned around and asked Xing He, "Xing He, can I take out an iron ingot for everyone to see?"

Xing He, who was walking in front and digging, waved his hand without looking back: "If you want to take it, take it."

"Mmmmm~"

San Yueqi walked to a furnace, took out an iron ingot from it, and at the same time turned on the light function on his mobile phone to shine it on the iron ingot.

The bright white iron ingots reflected dazzling light in the passage.

When the miners saw the iron ingot in San Yue Qi's hand, which was whiter than her palm, they couldn't help but swallow.

One of the miners stretched out his hand tremblingly, wanting to touch it, but quickly retracted his hand before he could touch it, and asked San Yue Qi timidly: "Miss, can we touch this iron ingot?"

"of course."

San Yue Qi handed the iron ingot over, and the miner hurriedly took it with both hands, holding it carefully as if it were a priceless treasure, and turned around to show it to the people behind him.

San Yue Qi did not forget to proudly introduce behind them: "Although I don't quite understand how our Xing He did it, this is the iron ingot refined from his one cubic meter of iron ore! The quality is superb!"

There was no need for San Yueqi to explain this matter, they also knew that those present were all veteran miners. They were not only responsible for mining minerals, some of them would also refine the minerals and then exchange them for supplies with the upper areas.

"This iron ingot is probably worth a lot of iron ingots we made ourselves, right?"

"Well! After seeing this iron ingot, I looked back at the iron ingots we refined. Pah! What rubbish!"

After seeing the iron ingot, one of the miners immediately shifted his gaze to several furnaces placed beside the passage, then swallowed and turned his gaze to March 7.

"Miss, is this furnace for sale?"

"Sell?"

San Yueqi was stunned for a moment. She really didn’t know this.
