551 Two acquaintances
551
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo jumped into the mine. There were more than a dozen mines, and the interior was tortuous. They didn't have so much time to explore them one by one.
The two looked at each other, and they randomly picked one of the mines. At the same time, they sent out the Miyoudie, which had been useless for a long time, to enter other mines to explore the situation.
After entering the mine, they found how bad the environment here was. The deeper they went, the darker the light was. They were not even equipped with lighting tools.
Especially those cultivators who were detained as mine slaves, they were covered in gray and looked numb. They even shuddered when they saw Feng Ming and the others appear.
It is hard not to suspect that these miners have such conditioned reactions because they have suffered so much at the hands of the supervisors.
Bai Qiaomo glanced at these miners and sent a message to Feng Ming: "Look at the collars on their necks, they are forbidden energy rings, which are used to imprison the energy of the cultivators, so that they cannot exert their full strength. Even if they can escape from this mine, it will be difficult for them to get far with their imprisoned cultivation."
"This is a method commonly used by some sects and families in the cultivation world to ensure that these miners can only stay in the mines and work for them."
Feng Ming gritted his teeth. These forces were really damnable. He asked, "That is to say, if you want to rescue these people, you have to find a way to unlock the forbidden Yuan rings on their necks first?"
Bai Qiaomo said, "Yes, I want to find a way to get one here to study."
The two of them walked deeper into the cave while communicating with each other through voice transmission. All the miners who saw them hurriedly moved to the side to avoid them.
They were afraid that they would bump into them and give them a reason to whip them.
Seeing that the two did not stop and the footsteps were far away, the miners were surprised. Why did the supervisors who came in today seem to be a little indifferent, which was different from usual?
These supervisors are also bad. They often bully the miners or run into the mines to secretly hide some of the Yuan crystals they dug out.
These Yuan crystals were all dug out by the miners. The supervisors asked them to hand them over, but they had to hand them over. Then the miners could not complete their tasks for the day, but the supervisors would only punish them.
Even if the miners hated it, they had to bow their heads, or become more and more numb, and one day was one day. One day, they might fall to the ground and never get up again.
In a narrow mine, a gray miner quickly drilled in, brought water and food, and ran to the side of another miner who was lying there coughing constantly.
He whispered, "Lin Yi, I have brought some water and food. You drink some water first and replenish your strength. I'll find a way to get some medicine."
"Brother Xie, don't bother, cough cough, my body is already broken, and I can't drag you down anymore, just let me go on like this."
"No, we agreed that one day in the future we will leave here together and wander around the cultivation world. I can't leave you here alone. Besides, how can I leave now? You have to take care of your body, and then we can think of a solution together. One person plans for the short and two people plan for the long, don't you think?" "
Brother Xie, cough cough."
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo released their soul power to search everywhere as they walked. In this mine, the two were not worried that their soul power would be discovered.
The one with stronger soul power than them is staying outside the mine.
The two of them suddenly stopped, Feng Ming turned his head to look at Bai Qiaomo, and said in a voice transmission: "Brother Bai, do you think those two people look familiar?"
Bai Qiaomo also found it, thought about it for a while, and showed surprise on his face, and he didn't care to hide it.
He remembered who these two people were, and was surprised that they appeared here.
"Brother Ming, you forgot that Captain Xie and Deputy Captain Lin of the Gaoyang County Feiyu Mercenary Corps should be them, but why are they here?"
Bai Qiaomo felt that it was possible to find other acquaintances here, but the most unbelievable thing was to run into them.
After being reminded by Bai Qiaomo, Feng Ming also showed a look of realization and almost clapped his hands: "Yes, it's them, but aren't they working as a mercenary corps in Gaoyang County? How did they end up as mine slaves in Youming Continent?"
Bai Qiaomo had a guess in his mind that it was not voluntary, but forced: "We will know if we go over and ask. Deputy Captain Lin's condition is not good."
Feng Ming: "This damn place has a ghost environment, and you can't use your energy. It's strange that your body can be in good health. Let's go."
Because the place where the two people were hiding was an abandoned mine, there were no people even nearby, which made it convenient for Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo to come here.
Even though his Yuanli was imprisoned, when Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo deliberately did not completely conceal their aura, Xie Yinghua also sensed someone approaching, and immediately shouted: "Who? Who is hiding there?"
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo now released their auras, and Feng Ming also said: "Captain Xie, Deputy Captain Lin, it's us, look who we are."
Bai Qiaomo casually threw a formation behind him and set up an illusion formation, making it impossible for people to find the mine here.
Xie Yinghua and Lin Yi were shocked. After coming here, no one except their own people could recognize their identities, and now the voice that exposed their previous identities was not familiar.
The two were on full alert. As the footsteps got closer, two figures appeared in their sight.
Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo revealed their true faces. Otherwise, there was no way for them to recognize each other and make them believe in themselves.
Seeing these two faces, Xie Yinghua and Lin Yi looked a little dazed.
The memories from the past seemed so far away, but they reappeared because of these two faces.
Xie Yinghua cried out: "Feng Ming, Bai Qiaomo?!"
He couldn't help rubbing his eyes. How could these two appear in the mine of the five major sects?
Was he dazzled, or was someone deliberately playing a prank and creating an illusion?
Feng Ming didn't care about that. He strode over and said, "Yes, it's us. How come you are here? When we found you through our soul power scan, Brother Bai and I were so surprised. Deputy Captain Lin is sick? Let me take a look."
Feng Ming was about to get close to Xie Yinghua. He finally reacted and stopped him: "Wait, am I not dazzled? It's not an illusion? Are they really you? But how come you are here? Why are you here?"
Xie Yinghua still didn't dare to believe that he and Lin Yi could be so lucky, so he still wanted to confirm it.
Bai Qiaomo came over from behind and said, "Brother Ming and I were in Youming Continent before. Before leaving, we wanted to find something for the five major sects on their territory, so we sneaked into the mine here. It was really an accident that we found you two."
Xie Yinghua couldn't help but believe it, but will pie fall from the sky?
Lin Yi held back a cough and said, "Brother Xie, it's them. They won't lie to us. Brother Xie can believe it once."
One person can be wrong, can two people be wrong as well? They had thought about whether someone would come to rescue them before, but they never thought that these two would show up.
Feng Ming patted Xie Yinghua's shoulder proudly: "Look, Deputy Captain Lin believes me. I will show Deputy Captain Lin his body first. Brother Bai, Captain Xie will be handed over to you."
Bai Qiaomo said gently: "Okay."
Feng Ming came to Lin Yi, who was half sitting up and leaning against the stone wall.
Feng Ming's soul power scanned his body, and the situation was really bad.
Dantian was imprisoned, and the Yuanli could not be extracted, resulting in the body not being nourished by the Yuanli for a long time, the meridians were a little atrophied, and the five dirty and six bows were also corroded by dust and suffered a certain degree of damage.
In fact, as long as the cultivator can still mobilize the Yuanli, or can continue to cultivate, all of this will not be a problem.
But now they are almost the same as ordinary people without cultivation, except that their physical bodies are too strong due to tempering.
Feng Ming flipped through his storage ring, and only then did he find that there was no elixir suitable for Lin Yi to use.
Some of the elixirs were too high in grade, and he had already disposed of the low-grade elixirs. If he wanted to refine them again, he would need spiritual herbs.
Wait, I got it, he found something that is quite suitable for nourishing Lin Yi's body.
Feng Ming immediately took out something from his storage ring, which was the ten thousand year old spiritual milk he had obtained when he first entered the Tianluo Secret Realm.
He still had some on him, and if he dropped one or two drops of it when making tea, the taste would be much better.
Feng Ming was glad that he had left some because of his greed, otherwise he would have to find another way now.
He poured out a glass of water, dropped two drops of spiritual milk into it, and handed it to Lin Yi: "This is the spiritual milk I found before, and it is just suitable for conditioning your current body, Deputy Captain Lin. When Brother Bai finds a way to remove your forbidden Yuan circle, you can use your Yuan power to recover."
Lin Yi blinked, holding back the moisture in his eyes. He didn't expect that someone would really come in to save them, and it was these two people who came, which gave him hope of life again.
"Thank you," Lin Yi's voice was a little choked, "Call me Lin Yi, I'm not Deputy Captain Lin anymore."
"Okay, Lin Yi."
Lin Yi nodded, took the cup and drank the water in it. The water flowed into his body, and it was like a sweet dew after a long drought. Even the cough in his throat subsided, and he felt the comfort he hadn't felt for a long time.
Seeing Lin Yi like this, Xie Yinghua finally believed the two people in front of him. He had no ill intentions towards them. It's no wonder he was suspicious. Here, you can be betrayed at any time.
Xie Yinghua was able to speak properly now: "Thank you very much, whether you can rescue us or not, Lin Yi and I are very grateful to you."
Bai Qiaomo was studying the collar around his neck, and said at the same time: "Originally, my brother Ming and I wanted to find something for the five major sects before leaving. If there is a Yuanjing mine here, it would be even better. We can also make a fortune when we leave."
Such a righteous face said that he wanted to "make a fortune", which almost made Xie Yinghua laugh.
This must be the influence of Feng Shao. These two are still together. Now their strength must be very strong. They can even get in here without alarming the five major sects.
Xie Yinghua was in a good mood because Lin Yi's physical condition had improved, which gave him hope, especially when he met an old friend in a foreign land.
He smiled and said, "Young Master Feng is still as humorous as before, and his actions are always unexpected."
Bai Qiaomo smiled, and Brother Ming was naturally very kind: "How did you end up here?"
This was what Feng Ming wanted to ask. As soon as the words came out, the smile on Xie Yinghua's face disappeared, leaving only gloom and hatred.
In the end, Xie Yinghua just sighed and said, "We didn't want to end up like this, but unfortunately we were captured here by the people of the Dongmu royal family."
Feng Ming exclaimed, "The royal family captured cultivators on their own territory and sent them up to be mining slaves?"
Lin Yi also nodded and said, "Yes, at that time, Brother Xie and I and other members of the mercenary team were on a mission outside, and we were suddenly surrounded and our cultivation was imprisoned.
At first, we didn't know what the intentions of the visitors were, or whether they were... Later on the way to escort us, these people knew we couldn't escape, so they told us.
At that time, there were more than 500 people who were sent up here with us to be miners. After entering here, we found out that it was because the mine collapsed once, crushing many miners to death.
They didn't have enough people, so they asked the Dongmu royal family to capture another batch of people and send them up."
Feng Ming gasped and looked at Bai Qiaomo. Bai Qiaomo didn't show much surprise on his face.
Feng Ming knew that Brother Bai had expected this to some extent.
"Damn it, we were too polite to them before we came."
Feng Ming found that they were just taking some things from the treasury, and they were still too soft on them. If they had known that they were doing this kind of thing in private, they should have emptied everything and turned the royal family upside down.
