318, Secret possession of ore, the character of the strong
In the days that followed, Mu Zhixing finally understood why Zhan and all the powerful men from Ancient Heaven were in such a mess.
In addition to being exposed to wind and rain in the cage, they would go to the mine for a walk every few days.
Going to the mine is not a problem, nor is mining.
But the problem is that every time they have to vent all the spiritual energy in their bodies on the mine in just one day. If they move a little slower, even if they leave a little bit of spiritual energy in their bodies, they will be beaten in the end.
Punishment.
Being forced to continuously deplete spiritual energy and then have to recover it in just a few days is not without benefits for the warrior.
If they persist like this, maybe their strength will improve.
But the biggest problem is that they don't have enough time to recover.
The worst among them are Taoist realm experts. How can it be so easy for a Taoist realm expert to fully recover in just a few days after exhausting his spiritual energy?
This will cause the spiritual energy consumed by everyone to be exhausted again before it is restored. As a result, their spiritual energy will only become less and less.
In the end, they will naturally become more and more haggard.
In just a few months, Mu Zhixing felt that he had lost weight several times. He knew that his current situation was no better than theirs without looking in the mirror.
He finally knew why those people didn't take away their space magic weapons.
Because no matter how much resources these people have left, they will eventually be lost under this consumption.
Mu Zhixing had been waiting for Zhou Shu to take any action, but to his surprise, Zhou Shu seemed to like the life here. From beginning to end, he never said a word about leaving.
And every time he went to the mine, Zhou Shu seemed extremely excited.
If Mu Zhixing hadn't known Zhou Shu very well, he would have thought that Zhou Shu was addicted to abuse.
"Your Majesty, I can't stand it anymore. If this continues, my spiritual energy will not be able to recover, and I will be exhausted sooner or later."
On this day, when he came back from the mine again, Mu Zhixing finally couldn't bear it any longer. He came close to Zhou Shu and whispered.
"Let's get out of here quickly."
Mu Zhixing said in a deep voice.
"Leave?"
Zhou Shu shook his head, "Are you sure you can deal with the masters in the city? I don't think we can beat him yet."
"My lord, don't tell me that you have no other preparations!"
Mu Zhixing whispered.
He has been observing Zhou Shu these days, and Zhou Shu has always been very relaxed, not at all like a prisoner.
And according to Mu Zhixing’s understanding of Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu has never done anything that he was not sure about. At least since Mu Zhixing got to know Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu has never suffered a loss.
"Mu Zhixing, if I remember correctly, you should be the protagonist here this time. I'm just escorting you."
Zhou Shu looked at Mu Zhixing and said with a half-smile, "To say that you are prepared, shouldn't it be that you are prepared? I only need to ensure that you will not die easily. As for the rest, it is not within my scope of consideration.
Inside."
"Is this how you protect me?"
Mu Zhixing rolled his eyes helplessly.
You escort people to prison. As an escort, you protect them very well.
As long as I don't die, you have completed your mission?
Could it be that you have some misunderstanding about the four words "escort"?
Mu Zhixing wanted to complain about Zhou Shu, but he didn't dare.
If he really regarded Zhou Shu as his bodyguard, he would be stupid.
Mu Zhixing still knows who takes the initiative between the two.
But since Zhou Shu said this, it seems that he is still somewhat sure of saving his life.
"Your Majesty, even if I can hold on, General Zhan and the others will soon be unable to hold on. Didn't you realize that every time they dig, the time they can hold on becomes shorter and shorter, and their spiritual energy will be exhausted in less than half a day?
, If this continues, they will never be able to recover all their spiritual energy, and they will die of exhaustion sooner or later."
Mu Zhixing said.
"I can still hold on, but they may not. What if they can't hold on anymore and expose us? What will we do then?"
Mu Zhixing said softly.
All the spiritual energy used to fight them was exhausted, and since they were far away, Mu Zhixing was not worried about them hearing what he said.
"If it's exposed, it's exposed. It's no big deal."
Zhou Shu said casually.
While talking to Mu Zhixing, he looked at his palm.
On the palm of his hand, there was a black particle the size of an ant. The black particle was struck by Zhou Shu from the mine.
Zhou Shu and his fellow prisoners were tasked with breaking the mine into pieces, or knocking rocks from the mine.
No matter who can get something from the mine, they will receive preferential treatment and rewards.
If you hand over these black particles, you won't be able to regain your freedom, but you can still get a good meal in exchange for it.
However, Zhou Shu did not hand it over, but found a way to hide it himself.
He is also full of interest in this almost indestructible stone.
Mu Zhixing did not wrong Zhou Shu at all. At first, Zhou Shu really wanted to come here to inquire about the news, but after learning about the existence of this mysterious mine, Zhou Shu changed his mind.
He decided to stay here and see what this mine was. If possible, it would be better to take this mine as his own.
These days, while bombarding the mine, Zhou Shu has also been studying the mine.
It has to be said that the mine is a kind of weapon-casting material that he has never seen before. The nature of this weapon-casting material is unknown. The only certain characteristic is that it is strong.
It is so strong that even if Zhou Shu tried his best, he could not leave any trace on it.
Just this level of sturdiness surpasses all the weapons-casting materials Zhou Shu knew in the past.
Even most of the magic weapons are not as hard as this stone.
Over the past few days, Zhou Shu saw many Taoist warriors using magic weapons to attack the stone. As a result, the magic weapons all burst out of their mouths, but the stone was still undamaged.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
No weapon-casting master would let go of such a magical weapon-casting material.
The same is naturally true for Zhou Shu.
He tried his best and finally got this ant-sized one.
In order to knock such a stone from the mine, Zhou Shu tried his best.
A small mountain stone weighs more than a hundred kilograms. When held in the palm of your hand, apart from the weight, there is no other difference at all.
Zhou Shu sat in the cage, bowing his head and saying nothing. The people around him were so tired that they were fast asleep, and no one paid attention to him at all.
In fact, these prisoners have no one to guard them.
Not to mention that those cages are unbreakable, but the masters in this city are like a chasm.
No one can escape from this city.
In the past few months, Zhou Shu himself had seen three people beheaded by masters in the city without even showing their faces.
The strength of any of those three people is not inferior to that of the thirty-six generals of Ancient Heaven!
"It is indeed the world behind the door."
Zhou Shu studied the stone and was amazed.
Randomly encountering something is a weapon-making material that has never been seen before. I don’t know how many similar things exist in the world behind this door.
It seems that after this door, I came to the right place.
Just these weapons-making materials make my trip worthwhile.
"Everyone, get up!"
Suddenly, a loud shout sounded above the prison, and a dazzling light exploded, illuminating the night as bright as day.
Then a group of fully armed soldiers rushed in, and the armor on their bodies made a rattling sound, causing everyone to wake up from their deep sleep.
Zhou Shu raised his head and saw a figure standing next to the dazzling light with his hands behind his back. The voice just now came from that person.
"So strong!"
Zhou Shu thought to himself, flipping his wrist, the stone disappeared silently.
"Who hid the rough stone secretly? Now hand it over obediently. I can forget about it, but if you let me find out, you will definitely regret it!"
The figure in the air flicked his sleeves, and a majestic aura spread, instantly covering the entire square.
"Crash-"
The group of soldiers also cooperated with the man's voice, opened the cages one by one, and then drove everyone out.
Zhou Shu's pores shrank slightly, but there was no trace on his face.
He was also a little surprised. As a small stone, he had used various means to avoid the soldiers guarding the mine. He did not expect that he would be discovered so quickly.
You must know that Zhou Shu is proficient in the ever-changing magical powers, and he can perfectly hide his aura. Every time, others have to exhaust their spiritual energy to pass the level, but even if Zhou Shu does not exhaust his spiritual energy, those people will not be able to detect it.
In this case, it would not be difficult for Zhou Shu to hide from the guards of the mine.
He couldn't figure out how the other party found out that someone had hidden the stone.
"Is this stone called a rough stone?"
Zhou Shu thought to himself, "Although these people discovered that someone was hiding the rough stone, they are not sure who did it. Otherwise, they would just take me away."
"Perhaps they are trying to find out the rough stone from me without having any evidence. It depends on whether they have the ability."
Zhou Shu remained calm and followed the others forward.
Soon, everyone had crowded into the open space, and the figure in the sky had also fallen to the ground.
The aura of that man was unfathomable, and Zhou Shu looked at him as if he had seen the original Qitian.
This person is very likely to have the power of Heavenly Lord!
Zhou Shu became more vigilant. He had never dealt with Tianzun face to face, and he had only a partial understanding of how powerful Tianzun was.
Whether one's own methods can be concealed from Tianzun is really not certain.
"If anything happens later, follow me closely."
When passing by Mu Zhixing, Zhou Shu whispered.
Mu Zhixing's heart trembled, and he thought to himself, is it here? Sure enough, is it still here?
Has Prince Zhou’s troublesome physique shown up again?
What the person shouted just now was that someone was hiding the rough stone. The rough stone was the stone from that mine, right?
Mu Zhixing looked at Zhou Shu's back and immediately had an answer in his heart.
Damn it, besides Zhou Shu, who else is here who has the ability and the interest to secretly hide the rough stones?
"I knew you stayed here for the sake of the mine, and you couldn't help but take action!"
Mu Zhixing said to himself.
He also secretly admired him in his heart, he was truly worthy of being Prince Zhou.
What kind of rough stone, after so many days, he used all his strength to knock it off, but Zhou Shu actually knocked it off. Not only did he knock it off, he also knocked it down in front of so many supervisors.
Hidden!
This kind of thing is not something ordinary people can do.
Thinking of this, Mu Zhixing secretly glanced at the person in front of the crowd.
The aura on that man was very terrifying. He was clearly a strong man who had transcended the Tao realm. Can Zhou Shu handle such a strong man?
Mu Zhixing suddenly became a little worried.
"With a stick of incense, if you take the initiative to stand up, I can give you a chance to live."
The strong man glanced at everyone and said coldly, "This is your only chance. Don't take any chances. No one can hide the rough stones here. When I dig them out with my own hands, your end will be very miserable."
."
The scene was quiet, everyone was trying their best to resist the powerful aura emanating from the strong man, and most people's bodies were already crumbling.
They had been digging for ore for a day and had exhausted their spiritual energy. Now they had just recovered a little and were unable to resist the oppression of the man.
"If someone points out the suspect, they can also get rewards."
The man's eyes swept across the audience again and said coldly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes became a little wary.
They looked at the people around them and seemed to be hesitating whether to report it or not.
Zhou Shu also felt several eyes falling on him.
These prisoners have no friendship with each other. They are good friends but not poor people. If they report others, it doesn't matter whether they report the right ones or not. There is nothing to lose anyway.
What if the report is correct?
"Light the incense!"
The strong man shouted loudly.
Immediately, several soldiers brought in the eucalyptus. An incense burner was placed on top of the eucalyptus. An incense stick was inserted into the censer and the incense was already lit.
When he said it took one stick of incense, he actually lit one.
"I reported it. I saw him sneaking around today and I suspected it was him!"
After a while, someone couldn't help shouting loudly.
"Bang——"
The strong man standing in front of the crowd stretched out his hand, and the person who was reported had been caught in front.
"It's not me, I didn't do anything!"
He shouted loudly, and his voice suddenly stopped.
Zhou Shu's eyes shrank and he watched helplessly as the man's body was thrown to the ground.
"The original stone is not on him."
The strong man who crushed the person being reported to death like an ant said coldly, "Who else wants to report?"
He doesn't care whether the person being reported is innocent or not, but he kills him as soon as he comes up!
Yes, in his eyes, these prisoners are just slaves and not human beings at all. Even if they are all killed, so what?
"I report!"
"I will report it too!"
The ferocity of the strong man not only did not make people flinch, but actually raised their hands. If you don't report others, you may be reported by others. Once you are reported, a clear example will be in front of you.
Everyone rushed to report.
Even Zhou Shu was reported by several people.
The scene was chaotic, and the strong man just watched indifferently, but this time he did not take any action to kill.
After a while, the stick of incense was half burned, and he suddenly said coldly, "Aren't you still willing to stand up? Do you want everyone to be buried with you just because you are alone?"
"You stand up, we have no grievances against you, why do you want to harm us?"
A prisoner suddenly broke down and shouted loudly that he had been reported by several people, and if he was not good enough, he would die on the spot.
"One person does what one person takes responsibility for. If you dare to steal something, why don't you dare to admit it? Are you a man?"
The man collapsed and yelled.
One person took the lead, and the others followed suit.
In this case, it doesn’t matter whether the accusation is right or not. As long as you don’t accuse, you may be a suspect. What everyone fears most now is to be different from others.
Zhou Shu sighed in his heart, these people were all strong before they became prisoners.
But after being tortured here to this point, I don’t even have any moral integrity anymore.
Sad, pitiful.
"Since you don't want to stand up, you can't blame me."
The strong man looked at the people biting each other, with a satisfied sneer on his face, and said, "I want to see how long you can endure watching others die for you."
He raised his hand and grabbed the person closest to him. Before the prisoner could react, there was a loud bang and exploded into a ball of blood mist.
This powerful man has strength comparable to that of Tianzun. It is not easy to kill a Taoist warrior who has exhausted his spiritual energy.
Seeing him suddenly kill again, everyone became a little frightened and a little nervous.
One by one, they began to curse with some excitement, and all kinds of obscene words kept coming out.
Mu Zhixing mingled among the crowd and pretended to open his mouth, but he knew that Zhou Shu did this, so naturally he couldn't really scold Zhou Shu, he just said some meaningless words.
"Why don't you scold?"
At this time, the strong man finally noticed Zhou Shu, who was somewhat calm among the crowd. He stared at Zhou Shu and said coldly.
"Is scolding useful?"
Zhou Shu said calmly, "Since it's useless, why should I waste my energy?"
"Very good."
The strong man looked at Zhou Shu and said coldly, "If you can still be so calm in front of me, no wonder you have the guts to hide the rough stone secretly!"
"My lord, you have to rely on evidence when doing things. If there is no evidence, what you say is slander."
Zhou Shu looked at the strong man seriously and said, "There is no evidence, why do you say that I kept the rough stone secretly?"
"You think I need evidence?"
The strong man laughed loudly, "How dare a slave tell me evidence? Your lives belong to me. Do I need evidence?"
"I said you hid the rough stone secretly, so that's you!"
He said arrogantly, "Hand over the original stone. Because you are so courageous, I will keep your body intact."
"It's not him!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, and a figure walked out from the crowd and said loudly, "It's me, the one who hid the rough stone secretly. If you want to kill me, come to me!"
