The inside of the mine was narrower than Han Shuo had imagined. Although dwarves were relatively short and could walk freely in it, Han Shuo found it somewhat inconvenient. Even with the illumination of oil lamps along the way, the inside of the mine was still very dark.
After walking for a few minutes, Han Shuo had to hunch over. The further he walked inside, the damper and darker the inside became. Gravel could be seen everywhere on the ground. When Han Shuo found it difficult to walk with a hunchback, the three dwarves finally stopped.
Come down.
Several dwarves in front, holding shovels and hammers in their hands, were mining hard, and the sound of "ding, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong" could be heard. When they found Han Shuo coming in, they couldn't help but stop what they were doing, and each one used
He looked at Han Shuo with suspicious eyes.
"Through these narrow passes, the cave entrance becomes wider and wider as you go forward. Although there are more iron ore and copper ores inside, when moving, rocks will fall from the top. There was a collapse a few days ago.
We spent a lot of effort to re-open the mine." Bennett leaned tiredly on the hard rock wall and looked at Han Shuo to explain.
Nodding, Han Shuo said: "Okay, you guys make some space, I'm going to summon the skeleton warriors, and let the skeleton warriors go in and mine the ore."
Following Han Shuo's instructions, the innermost dwarves retreated from there one after another. When there was no more dwarf inside, Han Shuo chanted the undead magic spell, and seven skeleton warriors appeared one after another.
Inside the passage, the entrance of the passage is blocked directly.
Originally, Han Shuo could only control six skeleton warriors, but after meditating on his mental power through the green ball in the past few days, his mental power has obviously improved again, and he can now control seven skeleton warriors.
"Put your shovels and hammers on the ground, and I'll let the skeleton warriors use your tools to mine the ore from the inside." After the seven skeleton warriors appeared, Han Shuo looked at the few dwarves who had retreated and said.
After hearing what Han Shuo said, these dwarves hesitated for a moment. After Bennett's persuasion, they each threw the ore mining tools in their hands far away. Han Shuo controlled the skeleton warrior and made the skeleton warrior throw away the tools in his hands.
He picked up the ore mining tools on the ground with his bone knife, hunched over one by one, and slowly walked deeper into the mine.
A "Wraith Spirit" was released, and following Han Shuo's order, it floated into the depths of the mine together with the skeleton warriors. With the help of this "Wraith Spirit", Han Shuo could observe the scene around the "Wraith Spirit"
, with the “Wraith Spirit” leading the way, Han Shuo could observe the scene deep in the mine immersively.
Sure enough, it was just as the dwarves said. The skeleton warriors crouched down and slowly passed through an extremely narrow hole. The further back they went, the bigger the space became. However, there was no lighting equipment inside, so Han Shuo could not see all the surroundings.
See clearly.
After the "Wraith Spirit" had walked a long distance from the skeleton warriors, and when Han Shuo felt that he could no longer control these dark creatures, he couldn't help but issue the task of mining ore. According to the visual medium of "Wraith Spirit",
Han Shuo concentrated his mental power, controlled the seven skeleton warriors, and hammered some of the surrounding ores.
Along with the movement of the skeleton warrior, a huge "ding-ding-ding" sound came from inside. After a while, Han Shuo used the "Wraith Spirit" to clearly feel that due to the excavation of the skeleton warrior, the stones on the top of the mine were somewhat
After a moment of loosening, several large rocks fell directly, smashing a skeleton warrior into a pile of broken bones.
Concentrating his mental strength, Han Shuo stood in front of several dwarves with his eyes closed. He carefully controlled the skeleton warriors and floated the "Wraith Spirit" on the top of the cave. He carefully observed the loose rocks and quickly let them down once the rocks fell.
skeleton warrior hiding.
After a long time like this, another skeleton warrior was directly smashed to pieces by a big stone. Han Shuo's mental power was so exhausted that he felt a little dizzy. He immediately understood that his mental power was too much and quickly asked the remaining five skeleton warriors to stop.
In order to complete the mining of ore, I picked up some of the ore that was crushed on the ground and began to carry it back.
When the five skeleton warriors moved the ore mined on the ground to the narrow pass one by one, several dwarves on Bennett's side called out and walked towards the pass one after another without waiting for Han Shuo's instructions.
, he also picked up the ore there and carried it to Han Shuo in a safe direction.
After a few more minutes of this, Han Shuo felt that his mental strength could no longer support the skeleton warriors' continuous work, so he immediately issued a spell and sent all the remaining skeleton warriors and the "revenge spirit" back to another time and space.
By this time, dozens of large and small ores were placed at the entrance of the cave in front of Han Shuo. Several dwarves cheered and rushed to break the ores into pieces and put them into the big pockets on their backs.
"Oh, dear friend, because of your help, today's harvest is more than the ore we got in a week. These lovely iron ore and steel ores can be refined to forge beautiful weapons. This is really a blessing.
It's something." Although Bennett was injured and very tired, he was in surprisingly good spirits now. Looking at his companions, he happily smashed the ore and picked it up, and expressed his gratitude to Han Shuo excitedly.
The other dwarves picked up the ores excitedly, laughed loudly, took out the wine they carried with them, and poured it into their mouths happily, making a bold "grunt" sound.
"Oh, my God, what is this, what is this?" Suddenly, one of the dwarves suddenly screamed at a high decibel level. This scream attracted all the dwarves, and they rushed towards him one by one.
Han Shuo was also surprised and looked at the dwarf involuntarily. However, he was already surrounded by other dwarves, so Han Shuo could not see anything. He secretly speculated that something had happened, right?
Just when Han Shuo was making suspicious guesses, Bennett suddenly laughed wildly and even the wine bag containing the wine in his hand was thrown into the air with great joy. An extremely excited and high-pitched cheer came from his mouth: "
Black iron, damn black iron, I’m sure this is really black iron, my God, there is black iron ore in it, the village chief will go crazy if he knows about it!”
When the other dwarves heard what Bennett said, their faces turned red and they danced involuntarily. They raised their hammers and hit the surrounding stone walls crazily, making a huge roar, which actually scared Han Shuo.
When Han Shuo heard what Bennett said, he felt relieved. He understood that these dwarves must have obtained the wonderful metal, so they were so excited, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
After a while, the dwarves gradually calmed down. At this time, Han Shuo asked: "Bennett, what kind of ore is this black iron? Is it very precious?"
Bennett kept nodding his head like a chicken pecking rice, and said excitedly: "Of course, it is very precious, extremely precious! The density and hardness of black iron are the largest among all ores, but its mass is the smallest among all metals.
Moreover, it never rusts and can change its color by adding other materials. It is the best material for making weapons. This is a gift given to us by God!"
Han Shuo was about to say some words of congratulations when suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed into his mind, and a memory poured in. Based on the properties of this black iron, he suddenly understood that this black iron was actually the one left in Chu Canglan's memory to forge a magic treasure.
A precious material - black iron.
Although black iron and black iron have different names, according to Bennett's description and comparing it with Chu Canglan's memory, it is immediately clear that these two ores with different names should refer to the same thing. Bennett said
The black iron is also the black iron mentioned in Chu Canglan's memory.
"It's a pity that there is only a very small piece. It seems that it is only enough to be made into a small dagger." After the excitement, Bennett looked at the black iron in the dwarf's hand and said with some regret.
"Bennett, don't be too discouraged. There must be some black iron inside. Maybe we can get a bigger piece next time, so that we can build the sharpest weapons!" said the dwarf Benson.
"Dear friend, thank you for your help. We are willing to share our mine with you. Can you continue to help us? We are willing to share the mined ore with you." Bennett couldn't help but sigh after hearing what Benson said.
He looked at Han Shuo longingly and prayed.
"I'm very happy that you trust me so much. I'm happy to help you, but I'm too exhausted today. I want to take a rest for a night and come back tomorrow to continue mining with you, okay?" Han Shuo secretly rejoiced in his heart, humbly.
Said to Bennett.
"Of course, of course. Early tomorrow morning, we will come over with the village chief. I hope you can come here again!" Bennett said quickly.
Nodding, Han Shuo smiled and said, "Well, see you tomorrow!"
After saying this, Han Shuo walked towards the entrance of the mine without taking away a piece of ore, leaving behind a few excited dwarves who continued to drink heavily.
