After waiting for about two minutes, the elevator finally started, began to fall slowly, and then accelerated.
The display screen in front of the elevator quickly refreshed the depth of the fall.
100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters...
Chu Fei suddenly remembered, "Uncle, how deep is this underground world?"
The scar-faced man was very enthusiastic, "We have dug into the "dragon vein". How deep do you think it is?"
Only then did Chu Fei remember the description in the book about the planet's underground energy channels. Energy channels are mainly formed at a depth of one thousand meters underground.
Due to the frequent material circulation on the shallow surface, it is not conducive to the formation of energy channels, which are the so-called dragon veins.
Just like this, if you want to find dragon veins on the surface, you usually have to look for stable structures such as mountains.
But no matter how big the dragon veins on the surface are, they are nothing more than a tadpole compared to the dragon veins underground.
The scar-faced man added: "The elevator shaft here is 1,107 meters deep, and the elevator takes five minutes to rise and fall."
As he spoke, the elevator began to accelerate, and the feeling of weightlessness became more and more obvious.
Everyone was silent. Chu Fei didn't ask any more questions.
After about 30 seconds, the elevator stopped accelerating, and after another four minutes, it began to slow down.
About five minutes later, the elevator stopped and the elevator door opened.
The passengers walked out without saying a word.
The scarred man just nodded silently to Chu Fei and left.
Chu Fei walked out of the elevator. There were also staff here. He waved to Chu Fei and said in a calm tone, "Chu Fei, come here."
Chu Fei approached and asked with a smile, "What do you call eldest brother?"
Chu Fei stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Brother Qiu."
Qiu Fugui hesitated before shaking hands reluctantly. But at the moment of shaking hands, Qiu Fugui narrowed his eyes and then calmly retracted his palm.
I glanced down and saw a small roll of banknotes! Two hundred yuan!
Qiu Fugui's expression suddenly became lively, with a smile on his face, "Chu Fei, welcome, welcome, the environment in the underground world is not very good, you have to be careful.
By the way, I still have a shift change at one point, how about I take you to get familiar with this place?"
"Okay, please, Brother Qiu. I'll wait for a while."
Chu Fei smiled slightly.
The King of Hell is so troublesome to deal with little devils, so when you are away from home, you cannot save money that should be spent.
Chu Fei stood aside and silently observed the surrounding environment.
The underground world is indeed an underground world. The dim light cannot illuminate the dusty concrete world.
The elevator shaft is considered a large dome, about two hundred meters in diameter. You can see thick, thick, criss-crossing structural beams. Through special design, the structural beams form a triangular pattern of large and small ones.
There are tunnels all around, leading to deep and unknown spaces.
When you first arrive, you will be amazed by the magnificent architecture here.
But if someone stays here for a long time, I'm afraid they will feel depressed. That's why the "miners" and the people who work here have a half-dead expression.
While Chu Fei was waiting nearby, he observed very carefully.
Observe the expressions of the people coming in and out. Whether you are gaining or losing money is written on their faces.
There are even more deaths and serious injuries.
But more often than not, minecarts shuttle back and forth.
Chu Fei was a little curious and doubtful. Will there be any problems with mining like this in the underground world? Also, above-ground mining is enough, right? Is underground mining necessary? How much minerals can be used in a small place like Feihu City?
.
If you have any questions, please contact Qiu Fugui.
Qiu Fugui explained it enthusiastically, and Chu Fei suddenly understood.
It turns out that the elevator does not only have one floor. There are also mining elevators around it, which can continue to go deep underground.
In addition, there are abundant rare metals deep in the earth's crust, such as iridium, palladium, platinum, uranium, etc., but these are rarely found on the ground or even not found at all. Gold, in particular, has a high underground content.
As for the issue of underground support, there is no need to worry at all. There is technology here in Feihu City, and it is the technology of the Yanhuang Federation.
An hour later, Qiu Fugui took over his shift and took Chu Fei towards a corridor.
While walking, explain the situation here to Chu Fei.
The underground world is an important resource area for Feihu City. In addition to minerals, it is more important to use the environment here to cultivate various medicines.
In this place where energy gathers, using soilless cultivation technology, there are many special fungi, such as large mushrooms, and a large number of excellent medicines can be obtained. From these medicines, "life energy" can be extracted.
The main raw materials for super potions, apart from the exotic beasts hunted, are the training base here.
Also, the underground world is dense with energy and is also a good place for spiritual practice.
In addition, there is a dimensional space and some strange animals and plants that come out of the dimensional space. These are also resources.
For example, elf fruit.
"Elf fruit?!" When Qiu Fugui said this, Chu Fei couldn't help but exclaimed.
Qiu Fugui laughed and said, "I knew you would have this expression. But don't think too much. In the environment here, the elf fruits are defective. They can only be used to make medicine, not to be eaten. Only in the dimensional space can excellence be achieved.
The elf fruit."
Chu Fei just said oh, this is reasonable.
Qiu Fugui continued to explain. There are good resources here, so of course it will attract not only humans, but also various mutated insects and beasts.
The underground world cannot be completely sealed, and it will inevitably be connected to some underground rivers, etc. Not to mention some mutated rats, pangolins, etc., which are all experts at digging holes.
In order to prevent these things from making holes and to protect the main structure, we even had to take the initiative to open some holes to let these things in.
Qiu Fugui was nagging, but Chu Fei learned a lot.
In order to prevent mice from digging holes, we must take the initiative to leave holes. This small detail reveals wisdom.
So after Qiu Fugui chatted for a while, he actually accumulated 10% of the dew of wisdom.
Sure enough, knowledge is everywhere, as long as you study hard.
After walking for one kilometer, the front suddenly opened up, and a hemispherical space about a hundred meters in diameter appeared. It was full of people and brightly lit, just like a small city. It was completely opposite to the lifeless one I passed by before.
Qiu Fugui smiled and said, "Here we are, this is where the Shuguang Special Forces is stationed. This place belongs to us."
Then he pointed to the passages in the back, "Did you see those passages in the back? That's our mining area. But we mainly clean up the mutated animals and plants here, outsource the mining, and charge management fees.
Come on, I'll take you to see the specimens of the main mutated plants and animals, and talk about their conditions."
As he spoke, Qiu Fugui's steps slowed down a bit.
Chu Fei smiled softly and took out a pile of banknotes. Qiu Fugui's eyes widened.
Chu Fei asked calmly, "Brother Qiu, how much does it cost to buy a book of materials or video materials?"
"Ah..." Qiu Fugui hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "The cheap ones are dozens, and the hardcover ones are one or two hundred."
Chu Fei directly pointed out five hundred yuan and said domineeringly: "Tell me!"
Qiu Fugui immediately smiled and said, "No problem, no problem!"
Before coming here, Chu Fei had learned from Liu Tingyun. The information on the underground world is updated in real time. Don't think that you will learn it just by buying a copy of the information. It's far from it!
There are many things that no one has pointed out, and even if they are written in books, they may not be taken seriously.
Not to mention, many of the skills passed down by word of mouth are not written down in books.
Regardless of written or film and television materials, it is impossible to contain all the information.
If you don't want to get into trouble, you have to spend money.
As for why it had to be Qiu Fugui, it was because I only saw this one and didn't know anyone else.
Qiu Fugui explained more and took Chu Fei to a small exhibition hall.
Entering the exhibition hall, Qiu Fugui pointed to a "big porcupine" and said, "This is an agouti, a relatively common mutant rat. Don't move, their spines are poisonous."
Chu Fei looked at this thing, which was about one meter in size. After a closer look, he saw that it really had a mouse head. Especially the sharp front teeth were the most obvious.
"The agouti has a keen sense of smell and is very smart. It especially likes sneak attacks.
Especially the bone spurs on the back can be launched.
Bone spurs are poisonous and have a paralyzing effect. In severe cases, they can cause nerve necrosis. Once the toxin enters the brain, life-saving injections will not work.
Everyone says that agouti appear here not for the resources here, but for the people here. They like to gnaw on human brains."
Qiu Fugui explained the agouti for more than ten minutes, giving a comprehensive explanation of its habits, diet, physiology, etc.
Then there are more mutant rats, mutant snakes, mutant bats, mutant plants, etc.
Chu Fei was shocked when he heard this.
The dangers in the underground world far exceed what others say!
Sure enough, you need to hire a tour guide when you visit a strange place.
