1078: Chapter 1071: Who is the brainless idiot?
Within the mine dungeon, it was a dusky blackness.
As they walked deeper, more and more hanging lamps appeared on the stone walls around them, illuminating the pathways that diverged in all directions.
The tall and short mbers of the Heavenly Alliance brought Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan to the center of this mine dungeon.
There, in the center of the mine, lay a relatively large space filled with chunks of black teor stones.
These black teor stones must be the result of what Earthly Venerable Zhang Xingtian and the others had mined in the past days.
The tall mber of the Heavenly Alliance looked coldly at Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan, saying, “Don’t even think of playing any tricks here.
You two are our defeated opponents, and besides, with Brother Zhang stationed outside, you’d better just mine the black teor stones obediently.
Otherwise, you’re in for a rough ti.”
After defeating Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan, the tall man no longer took them seriously.
He continued, “Make sure to morize the layout of this place.
Before dinner each day, bring the mined black teor stones here.
These are your tools.” The tall man handed over two bamboo baskets and two iron shovels to Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan, whose faces deliberately displayed a tint of unwillingness.
This completely satisfied the tall and short mbers within, and the short one said, “Stop standing there like fools, follow us to the left.”
Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan followed the tall and short mbers for about five minutes.
Along the way, they saw mbers of the Heavenly Alliance mining stones, but as they moved further left, the people beca sparser, until eventually, there wasn’t a soul in sight.
The short mber, full of smugness, said, “You two will mine black teor stones here, and don’t you go wandering off elsewhere.
Otherwise, don’t bla us for being ruthless.
Oh, and if you can’t fill your bamboo baskets with black teor stones before dinner ti, then you can forget about eating.”
After giving their haughty orders to Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan, the tall and short mbers left the area, chatting and laughing as they went.
The tall one chuckled, “Having them mine here, I bet they couldn’t dig up black teor stones even if they worked themselves to death.”
“One of them is on the hit list of our young master, and the other is the son of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance Hierarch.
Do we need to show them any courtesy?
Moreover, we’ve already experienced their strength firsthand; they are just two worthless pieces of trash,” said the short mber, disdainfully curling his lip.
The tall and short mbers brought Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan to an area that had been thoroughly mined not long ago.
Furthermore, the stone wall in front of them was extrely tough; even Earthly Venerable Zhang Xingtian had been unable to break through it, so as far as the tall and short mbers were concerned, Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan wouldn’t be able to mine anything at all.
After ensuring that the tall and short mbers had left, Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan began to survey their surroundings.
They had overheard the conversation of the tall and short mbers, and since there was no one else from the Heavenly Alliance mining nearby, there was no need for Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan to keep up the pretense.
Shen Mingxuan said, “Chenfeng, what should we do now?”
“We are here, so let’s make the most of it.
Didn’t you see the huge pile of black teor stones earlier?
The people of the Heavenly Alliance are effectively working for us.
Those black teor stones will be ours in the end.
Right now, we should focus on figuring out how to escape from here when the ti cos.
Our main goal this ti is to obtain the black teor stones; I don’t want to take any other risks.”
With that, Ye Chenfeng put down his bamboo basket and summoned his Soul Force, swinging the iron shovel forcefully at the stone wall in front of him.
With a “bang!”, sparks flew, and the iron shovel in Ye Chenfeng’s hand snapped in two.
The extre hardness of the stone wall was apparent, and with their current strength, it seed Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan would be unable to break through it.
Having confird that they couldn’t break through the stone wall, Ye Chenfeng casually tossed the broken shovel aside and said, “Mingxuan, let’s just sit down for a while.
We can’t mine black teor stones here anyway.”
Ye Chenfeng sat down on the ground, and Shen Mingxuan could only follow suit.
Ye Chenfeng continued to scan their surroundings.
Due to being an all-around genius in his past life, he had so knowledge of geology.
He started by gently tapping a nearby stone wall, which made his brow furrow slightly.
Then, he placed his palm on the ground, using his Soul Force to penetrate into the earth below, repeatedly tapping the wall and sensing the conditions beneath the surface.
This made Shen Mingxuan next to him grow puzzled and he asked, “Chenfeng, have you discovered sothing?”
Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, “If my guess is correct, I’ve really discovered sothing.
There should be a space hidden behind this hard stone wall.
We can dig a tunnel from underneath to reach the other side of this wall.
Since we’re not planning to leave here anyway, why don’t we start digging to see what we find?”
Shen Mingxuan would, of course, not object to Ye Chenfeng’s proposal.
So, Ye Chenfeng took out two entrenching shovels from his Space Ring again, and after determining a spot, they both quickly began to dig.
To tunnel through to the other side of the stone wall wasn’t too difficult, as the soil on the ground wasn’t especially hard, which was a manageable task for Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan.
About an hour later.
Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan had successfully dug out a passage.
When they reached the other side of the stone wall, they were completely stunned.
Ye Chenfeng’s earlier speculation was spot on.
There really was a space beyond the stone wall, containing stone tables and chairs.
But what surprised Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan was not this, but the pile of black teorite ore that filled the space.
Because tall and short people had been around earlier, Ye Chenfeng hadn’t had the chance to closely examine the black teorite ore.
So he casually picked up a piece and used his Soul Force to try and absorb the energy within it.
He discovered that the black teorite ore could indeed help practitioners of Soul Force speed up their cultivation.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t hurry to examine this mysterious space in detail.
He said, “Mingxuan, let’s go back to our original spot.
We must stay here tonight.
In the evening, the people from Heavenly Alliance will definitely want to rest.
We can take our ti to observe this space later.”
Saying so, Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan returned to their original location.
After concealing the entrance of the tunnel they had dug, they sat idly on the ground, waiting for night to fall.
Seven to eight hours later.
The sky outside the mine had gradually darkened, and the tall and short people ca to Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan’s side, chattering and laughing.
Upon hearing the noise, Ye Chenfeng imdiately pretended to be angry.
Upon seeing the tall and the short people, he stood up from the ground and bellowed, “Are you playing with ?
It’s impossible to dig here.
I’m hungry now.
Get sothing to eat imdiately.
And you’re not going to make stay in this godforsaken place overnight, are you?”
“You two pieces of trash, I, Shen Mingxuan, am a young master of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
How dare you treat this way?” Shen Mingxuan also promptly stood up and roared.
Hearing Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan’s curses, the faces of the tall and the short people grew gloomy.
The tall one sneered, “You two still want to eat?
You’ll stay here tonight.
When you dig out so ore, that’s when we’ll feed you.”
“We’re just ssing with you guys.
What can you do about it?
Don’t you believe that I could slap you dead with one blow?
Two brainless idiots.” The short one spoke with disdain.
“Alright, let’s not waste words on these two brainless idiots.
Let’s go have dinner!” The tall one patted the short one’s shoulder.
The short one pointed at Ye Chenfeng and Shen Mingxuan and barked, “The two of you stay here.
Otherwise, I’ll break one of your legs and an arm or sothing.
I think the young master wouldn’t mind.”
Watching the tall and the short persons leave, a smile appeared on the corner of Ye Chenfeng’s mouth.
After all, who were the real brainless idiots?
