Shen Zhengqi was a little surprised to see that Gu Qingxi was willing to believe him.
He smiled awkwardly: "It's a coincidence. I am using the token of the master of Yuanming Peak to intimidate several monks who have gone astray, hoping to make them turn over a new leaf. Just when I was trying hard to make them understand the true meaning of cultivation, Gong Qiufeng, the eldest son of the Gong family, happened to pass by.
He saw me holding the token and trying to bring people back to the right path, so he was shocked by my demeanor.
I have heard that the owner of this mine treated the workers harshly, and I was also prepared to enforce justice, and then I happened to meet Gong Qiufeng, so I followed him."
Gu Qingxi stretched out her hand: "Let me see the token."
Shen Zhengqi took out a token and handed it to Gu Qingxi.
Gu Qingxi took the token and saw that it was indeed made with great texture, but...
"This is not the token of Qiongfeng Sect. This is the token of Guiyun Sect." Gu Qingxi raised the token in her hand and asked, "Did you make this too?"
Shen Zhengqi took a look, smiled awkwardly, nodded, and then took out another token from the storage bag: "The token of Qiongfeng Sect is here."
After Gu Qingxi took it, she flipped through it.
Although she had never seen the token of the real leader of Yuanming Peak of Qiongfeng Sect, the workmanship of this token in her hand was very exquisite.
No wonder it could scare the two elders of the Gong family.
Gu Qingxi returned the two tokens to Shen Zhengqi and asked, "Are you an equipment refiner?"
Shen Zhengqi put the tokens away and sighed, "I want to be one too. But I don't have the talent."
Gu Qingxi suddenly asked curiously, "Have you ever thought about what to do if you can't solve the problem at the mine? Or what if your identity is exposed?" Shen Zhengqi
didn't answer Gu Qingxi's question immediately, but glanced at the monster not far away and asked carefully, "Then can you tell me first, why doesn't this monster beat you and still listen to you?"
Gu Qingxi smiled and said, "Because it is very smart and knows it is not my opponent. So it picked you, a soft persimmon.
As for why it can understand what I say, it's because it is very smart.
It stays here not to cause damage or hurt people, but this place is very suitable for it to hatch its children."
When Shen Zhengqi heard Gu Qingxi's answer, the expression on his face was hard to describe. Why do you feel that every word of Gu Daoyou is heartbreaking?
But soon he thought of another question: "How do you know it hatches its eggs here? You don't seem to have communicated with it?"
From beginning to end, he didn't see Gu Qingxi have any communication with the monster. She just stood there and watched him get beaten. How did she know the monster hatched eggs here?
Of course, Bai Ze communicated with the monster, but Gu Qingxi didn't say this, but said: "I have answered your two questions, it's your turn."
Shen Zhengqi hesitated for a while, and then he grunted: "I originally wanted to get the deposit and find a chance to slip away. But I didn't expect them to find you to solve the problem. The worst thing is that they have to close the barrier after we come in."
Gu Qingxi understood, it seems that this guy didn't think about solving the monster, but planned to fool him and run away with the money. As a result, she appeared as a variable, and he could only be forced to come in to solve the monster.
The consequence is that he didn't solve the monster, but was almost solved by the monster.
"Do you have a magic weapon that can conceal your cultivation?" Gu Qingxi asked again.
Shen Zhengqi looked at Gu Qingxi warily, shrinking his neck: "Do you believe me when I say I don't have it?"
Gu Qingxi: "... What do you think?"
Shen Zhengqi said cautiously: "Then if I say I do, can you not steal it from me?"
Gu Qingxi almost laughed out of anger, and said: "Do I look like that kind of person?"
Shen Zhengqi immediately smiled awkwardly: "Of course not, Daoyou Gu is upright, helpful, and broad-minded..."
Gu Qingxi raised her hand to stop Shen Zhengqi's words. She felt that if she didn't stop him, this guy would probably talk her ears to calluses.
Wan Ling couldn't help but say: "Master, I can see that this old man travels in the martial arts world, no, this old man travels in the world of cultivation, all by his mouth."
Gu Qingxi ignored Shen Zhengqi, but turned around and whispered something to the monster. The monster nodded repeatedly, and finally turned around and disappeared into the depths of the cave.
"Daoyou Gu, what did you say to the monster?" Shen Zhengqi came up and asked in a low voice.
"It said that it will leave after its baby hatches. I told it to hatch its baby here peacefully, and to close the mine during this period, and reopen it after it leaves." Gu Qingxi said.
"Are the people from the Gong family willing?" Shen Zhengqi touched his old waist and muttered. His waist was just hit by the monster, and it still hurts. But now he understands that the monster probably didn't try its best just now, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered just this little bit of physical pain.
"Didn't you say that the owner of the mine treated the workers harshly? Let them clean up the mine first during this period. Its baby will soon hatch, and it will probably take at most ten days." Gu Qingxi replied.
"That's right. I heard that the current owner of this mine is Gong Qiufeng's uncle. He bullies people here and acts arrogantly. He is getting more and more harsh on the workers and paying them less and less wages. In the past, he could sell some warm crystal ore to the workers at the internal price, but now the price is ridiculously high. The workers come to work less and less, and they are not enthusiastic. There were several times when the workers' wages were delayed, and the workers were beaten when they asked for them." Shen Zhengqi said angrily.
"I know, let's go." Gu Qingxi said, turned around and walked back.
Shen Zhengqi hurriedly followed behind.
Back to the entrance of the barrier again, the five elders and their group were still guarding there.
After seeing Gu Qingxi and Shen Zhengqi come out without any injuries, they all showed joy on their faces.
The fifth elder and the sixth elder hurriedly opened the barrier and let Gu Qingxi and Shen Zhengqi out.
"Two seniors, what's the situation inside?" Gong Qiufeng asked hurriedly.
Without waiting for Gu Qingxi to speak, Shen Zhengqi raised his chin and said arrogantly: "With the help of Fellow Daoist Gu, the matter is naturally resolved."
Gong Qiufeng: "???" Why did Senior Shen, whom he invited, look so proud of Senior Gu? Why did he feel like he was trying to flatter Senior Gu?
Was it his illusion?
After hearing this, the Fifth Elder and the Sixth Elder were overjoyed and bowed to Gu Qingxi and Shen Zhengqi: "Thank you two seniors for your help..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Qingxi raised her hand to stop him, and said seriously: "It's not over yet. The appearance of the monster here is not accidental. If we don't solve the root of the problem, other monsters will appear here in the future."
