Lao Yan hesitated and looked at Zhou Hongsheng with some embarrassment.
Zhou Hongsheng felt confused and asked: "Old Yan, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly. Mr. Gao is not an outsider. There shouldn't be any company's business secrets here, right?"
"Where! This place is relatively backward, and the local miners down there believe in some weird things. Something happened in the mine a few days ago, so there are these horns and the symbols on the ground.
Mr. Gao is from China, and I’m worried that he doesn’t like these things very much, so he doesn’t know how to answer.”
"What happened at the mine? It doesn't matter, Mr. Gao doesn't care about those things." Zhou Hongsheng spoke for Gao Xingyu.
Zhou Hongsheng accompanied Gao Xingyu to Africa this time, nominally to inspect the work at the Baimulo Mine. In fact, he knew well that he wanted to accompany Gao Xingyu to retrieve the raw spiritual stones.
Although he doesn't know the purpose and value of the raw spirit stone, given his status, he has heard many rumors in the industry. Once this kind of stone is born, it is often accompanied by many supernatural events.
Zhou Hongsheng's business trip was directly arranged by Lin Wenyue. When introducing Gao Xingyu, she just said that he was her friend and asked him to take good care of his guests.
Of course Zhou Hongsheng knew something in his mind. The more the boss downplayed it, the more it showed that Gao Xingyu was different from ordinary people. Maybe he had a special status or a huge background.
All in all, the boss wanted him to downplay the entire process of this trip, but he would never allow any mistakes.
Therefore, since Gao Xingyu took the initiative to ask about these things, Zhou Hongsheng dispelled Lao Yan's concerns and asked him to tell him what Gao Xingyu wanted to know.
Things are actually not complicated.
More than two months ago, the first piece of raw Lingshi was excavated in this mine. The chief engineer sent by Fengyuan Mining knew that this was a resource controlled by the state, so he asked the miners to continue digging for this kind of stone, but not to break it.
In the following time, more than 20 pieces were dug out of this mine, and there were no more.
At first, everyone didn't pay attention. They just piled the raw Lingshi ore beside the passage and waited for the headquarters to decide how to deal with it. The main function of these mines is not to mine, but to check the geological structure and direction of the veins. They do not need to be operated at any time, so this mine
The excavation work has been temporarily stopped.
Not long ago, several miners entered the mine. They were learning how to identify ores. In order to practice their skills, they ran into the mine and opened a window for a piece of raw spiritual stone.
Other miners discovered that these people were missing and reported it to the mine leaders. The mine immediately organized manpower to search, and they were soon found in the mine, but they were already unconscious at the time.<
/p>
During the process of transporting them out of the mine, several of the people who were rescued were also unconscious. Fortunately, their positions were not far from the entrance of the passage, and the others quickly rescued all the unconscious people.
The comatose people woke up one after another. Although there was nothing serious, everyone seemed to be seriously ill.
There were no results after going to the hospital for examination, except that the heartbeat and blood flow rate were much faster than normal people, making their bodies unable to bear it and making them appear much weaker.
Especially those who went in first, maybe because they stayed in there for too long, their bodies have not fully recovered yet.
The miners recruited from the local area were frightened and said that there was something evil in this mine.
In order to appease these miners, Lao Yan, accompanied by several local miner representatives, made a special trip to the Wildebeest Tribe and asked the tribe's high priest to come here to cast spells to ward off evil spirits.
The horns hanging at the entrance of the mine are the magic tools left by the high priest. Together with the runes he drew on the ground, they suppressed the so-called evil spirits.
Not to mention, the effect of this is really good. Lao Yan arranged for people to try it. As long as you don’t enter the mine for too long, there will be no more coma.
Magical weapon? Gao Xingyu smiled and shook his head. It was just a talisman infused with divine power, and it was still far away from the magical weapon.
This formation talisman and the underground divine patterns form a simple Shinto formation, which will add a layer of protection to people entering the mine. Its function is to prevent the surrounding energy from entering the person's body within a certain period of time.<
/p>
As for the miners who are said to be unconscious, it is actually due to drunkenness. A window was opened in the original Lingshi mine. Although the vitality leakage rate is not fast, in an environment like a closed space like this mine, the concentration of vitality is no longer what ordinary people can
I can bear it.
This formation uses divine power and divine patterns, which are commonly used by cultivators. Its function is similar to the Forbidden Element Card refined by Gao Xingyu and He Lili. It isolates the vitality from the body and will not be affected by the vitality. Gao Xingyu only knows the principles of spiritual cultivation, but he doesn’t know much about the specific methods. It seems that the high priest of the wildebeest tribe has some abilities. Should he go and meet him? Gao Xingyu is secretly thinking about it.<
/p>
The three of them walked into the mine. Gao Xingyu walked straight to the open window of the Lingshi Mine, raised his hand and punched out a few restraints to temporarily seal the breach.
This kind of ban is only a temporary measure. With Gao Xingyu's current cultivation level, he can ban his vitality for at most one day.
However, he planned to take a look inside the mine first, and then dispose of the raw spiritual stones when he came out, so as to prevent the vitality from leaking out and hurting ordinary people.
There is not much divine power left in that horn. It can at most help a few people from being eroded by their vitality, but then it will lose its effectiveness.
Although this mine had been enchanted by the high priest, Lao Yan and Zhou Hongsheng's faces were still a little pale.
Gao Xingyu smiled and said, "You guys go back first. I'll walk in and come out in a while."
When Lao Yan was about to speak to dissuade him, Zhou Hongsheng said first, "Okay, Mr. Gao, you can do whatever you want. But you'd better put on your helmet and go down with a walkie-talkie. We're right outside the mine. If anything happens, call us at any time."
”
After saying that, Zhou Hongsheng handed Gao Xingyu a safety helmet and a walkie-talkie, and then pulled Lao Yan out of the mine.
Although he was also very curious about the raw spiritual stone ore in the passage, he didn't even take a glance at it at this time.
"This?" Lao Yan looked at the mine behind him, a little puzzled.
Zhou Hongsheng shook his finger at him, indicating that he should be quiet, and then started chatting with him about the customs and customs here.
Lao Yan is also a shrewd person. When he saw this, he immediately stopped mentioning this issue and chatted with Zhou Hongsheng about some new things here.
Gao Xingyu waited for them to go out, then took off his helmet and walked slowly along the passage. He needed to use his spiritual consciousness, and the helmet was lined with steel plates, which still had some effect on him.
There is a lighted lamp at regular intervals in the passage. Although the light is a bit dim, it is bright enough for Gao Xingyu.
The passage is not long, and Gao Xingyu quickly reached the location where the raw spiritual stone ore was mined.
A separate excavation surface has been opened here, which is about ten meters long. It has been dug up, down, left and right, just like a hall.
