Cultivation Begins From The Desert

[Gold-eating Rat] is a very aggressive monster. Although Zhou Quan and Zhou Yang's aura is not weak, it doesn't make it feel invincible. The humans who interrupted its eating were very annoyed, and they would not let them go easily.

After the attack on Zhou Yang was blocked by the [Silver Gang Shield] automatic protector, this cunning monster hid in secret for a quarter of an hour before attacking again.

This time [Golden Rat] attacked the old man Zhou Quan. In order to lure it out, the old man deliberately put away the golden light protecting his body, which made it think that he had found a chance.

However, the old man Zhou Quan, who had experienced many battles, was not a rookie like Zhou Yang who had just come down the mountain. As soon as he jumped out of the cave wall where he was hiding, he was immediately knocked to the ground by a flying round shield.

Then just when it was frightened and wanted to run away again, a golden light suddenly shot out from the fingers of old man Zhou Quan, and quickly sank into the ground of the mine.

In an instant, the ground within a range of tens of meters became as hard as steel under the action of the golden light, and the [Gold-eating Rat], which had escaped half of the ground, was stuck on the ground in an instant.

good chance!

Neither Zhou Yang nor the old man Zhou Quan expected that "pointing to the ground into steel" could have the effect of "drawing the ground as a prison". Both of them had bright eyes, and they launched follow-up attacks almost simultaneously.

Seeing that old man Zhou Kui raised his hand, the hammer head of the pumpkin sledgehammer instantly soared to the size of the water tank, and it hit the [gold-eating rat] that was stuck on the ground as hard as Mount Tai.

Zhou Yang remembered what the old man said earlier, instead of using a magic weapon to attack, he used the second-level spell "Fire Snake Art" that he had practiced for several years.

With a quick gesture, he summoned a giant flame python with a length of several meters and rushed towards [Golden Rat].

At that time, the old patriarch said that the "Golden Yang Lie Huo Jue" he practiced was good at fighting skills, and it was not aimless. This ordinary second-level spell "Fire Snake Art" released in his hands was at least more powerful than the "Fire Snake Art" released by ordinary sixth-level Qi training monks. "Snake Art" doubled in size.

Rumble——

After a burst of rock-shaking explosions, the entire mine tunnel collapsed for less than half of the way from Zhou Quan and Zhou Yang's blow, and both of them turned pale with fright.

I only remembered exorcism just now, but I forgot that the two of them are now tens of meters deep underground. If the mine really collapses and hundreds of millions of sand fall down, it will not be the two of them during the Qi training period. What a little monk can bear, is almost as good as a Jindan stage monk.

"Quick, let's get out first."

After the old man Zhou Quan's face turned pale, he immediately made a decision to withdraw temporarily. He didn't even have time to take back the golden melon sledgehammer, so he directly pulled Zhou Yang, who was still in shock, out of this dangerous area along the mine road.

Compared with the matter of eliminating demons, it is of course more important to keep Zhou Yang, a genius child of the Zhou family.

The two withdrew tens of meters in a row, and did not stop until they were close to the exit of the mine.

Then the two of them waited for a while, and after the shaking of the ground completely ended, the old man Zhou Quan strictly ordered Zhou Yang to wait on it, and went down to check the situation by himself.

After a while, the old man Zhou Quan who went down to check the situation came back, but he came back empty-handed.

"That animal has a big life, let it run away with serious injuries!" Facing Zhou Yang's suspicious gaze, old man Zhou Quan explained the situation with a curse on his face.

Hearing this, Zhou Yang also sighed with pity: "It's really a pity, such a second-tier top-rank monster beast is not common here, if you can take it, skin it, dismantle its bones and give it to the old patriarch, you will definitely be able to refine it again." A few second-tier high-grade magical artifacts!"

It was fine if he didn't say this, but when he said this, the expression on Zhou Quan's face turned ugly again.

Originally, the old man wanted to show off his strength in front of this nephew and grandnephew, telling the young man that he was old, but he was still young, so don't really think of himself as those old and weak mortals who can only sit at home and wait to die.

As a result, it has become like this now, and the old man can imagine how annoyed he is.

"This matter is not over. [Gold-eating rat] is the beast that holds the most grudges. This time we will seriously injure it here. After it recovers from its injury, it will definitely come to eat people. When the time comes, we will prepare relevant treasures in advance. We must It slaughtered and stripped the skin and bones!" said the old man with a look of resentment.

When Zhou Yang heard what the old man said, his heart ached. If the [Gold-Eating Rat] would come to take revenge as the old man said, should the mine continue to mine?

The family sent him to garrison Qingping Mountain. His main duty was to protect the refined iron ore vein. If the mining was stopped because of monsters, what he would lose would be the sparkling spirit stones!

The change in his face was not concealed in any way. The old man Zhou Quan immediately understood what he was worried about when he saw it, and he couldn't help comforting him: "Don't worry, Xiaojiu, this old man will explain this matter to the clan for you, [Golden Rat] It is a second-tier high-grade monster, which is beyond your ability to deal with it, and no one will look down on you because of it."

"Thank you, Third Grandpa, for enlightening me, but my grandnephew still has some doubts. Our Zhou family has been mining this refined iron mine for decades. Although there were many desert monsters attracted by human breath to attack the miners before, no one has ever discovered it. 【Gold-Eating Rat】This kind of monster."

"And the [gold-eating rat] just now is clearly an adult monster. If it had been active in the fine iron ore vein before, it shouldn't have shown any traces at all."

Zhou Yang looked at the old man with a puzzled expression, and slowly said the question he had just thought of.

He knew that the old man was a second-level beast trainer. In terms of understanding of monsters, no one in the Zhou family could compare to this centenarian except for the old patriarch.

"Well, what you said is true. Monsters like [Gold-eating Rat] always like to nest and multiply in metal veins. The Zhou family has been mining this refined iron ore for decades. If there are [Eat Gold Rats] in the vein Rats exist, the elders of the family who explored the mine veins and Brother Zhou Qian should not have discovered it, unless..."

"Unless it's a recent migration!"

The grandfather and grandson exclaimed almost at the same time, and then looked at each other with joy in their eyes.

"That's right, as far as the old man knows, if a monster like [Gold-eating Rat] wants to be promoted to the third level, it needs to devour a lot of metals of different attributes. The animal that escaped must have recently migrated from another mine vein. Came here!"

The old man Zhou Quan stretched out his hands excitedly and pulled his beard, and shouted again and again with a bright face.

Zhou Yang was not much better either. As soon as the old man finished speaking, he nodded with a red face and said: "Since the third grandpa said so, he must be right, but he didn't know where this [Gold-Eating Rat] was originally. How far is the mine vein from here? If it is not far, our Zhou family might make a fortune again!"

It's no wonder the two are so happy, because the Zhou family has established a family rule since the ancestor Zhou Yuquan established the family.

That is, if any disciple of the Zhou family finds unowned mineral veins or natural spiritual veins in the boundless sand sea and reports them to the family, after the family occupies and develops these resources, the person who discovers them will get 10% of the output dividend every year. It will continue until people are discovered or the resources of the vein are exhausted.

If the situation this time is as the two of them guessed, the [Gold-eating Rat] migrated from another nearby undiscovered mine vein, then as long as they find that mine vein and report the location to the family, they will be able to Lie down and collect dividends.

In this case, how can you say that the two of them can be unhappy?

But after all, both of them are immortal cultivators who have practiced for many years. Even if they are happy in their hearts, they will not jump up and down like ordinary people. They still have to maintain the demeanor of immortal cultivators.

What's more, everything is just speculation between the two now, and it has not really been confirmed.

However, just when Zhou Yang calmed down and was thinking about how to find the possible ore veins, the old man Zhou Quan on the side suddenly looked at him with hesitation and said in a low voice: "Well, Xiao Jiu, the old man and How about you discuss it?"

"Third Grandpa, please tell me." Zhou Yang replied reflexively, then raised his head and looked at the old man in surprise. This is not the tone of an elder to a younger generation.

Seeing him like this, the old man couldn't help but blushed, and a look of shame flashed in his eyes, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "If you really discover the mineral vein, the old man can give the credit to you and let you enjoy that mine alone." How about a dividend, and then how about you give three of your own dividends to your second brother every year?"

"this……"

Zhou Yang's face changed, and he immediately understood what the old man meant.

According to the family rules, if multiple people discover a vein at the same time, then multiple people will share the 10% of the family dividend, and whoever dies and dies, his share of the dividend will be owned by the family.

The old man Zhou Quan is over a hundred years old. Even if Zhou Yang shares the dividend with him, he won't be able to get it for a few years, and he may be ruined before the family develops and utilizes the mine. .

But if Zhou Yang alone receives that portion of the bonus, not to mention that Zhou Yang has a great chance of building a foundation in the future, even if he fails to build a foundation in the future, at the age of twenty, he can still eat dozens of dividends. years.

If calculated in this way, even if Zhou Yang only takes 30% of his own dividends and gives it to his brother Zhou Bao (the grandson of the old man Zhou Quan), it will be a huge profit for the old man Zhou Quan's family.

It's just that the old man Zhou Quan's actions are strictly speaking harming the interests of the family, and it is a selfish behavior that harms public welfare, especially since he himself is the elder of the family.

The old man Zhou Quan obviously knew that his behavior was very bad. Seeing Zhou Yang's face changed drastically and he didn't reply, his eyes were even more ashamed. However, some beliefs in his heart still supported him to continue to say:

"This old man knows that this is very bad, but Xiaojiu, you have to be considerate of your second brother. Your second brother is only a low-grade spiritual root, and his parents have passed away. Once the old man dies, he will support the old man's leftovers by himself. How hard is it for a big family? The old man has lived for more than a hundred years, and he has never done anything wrong to the family in his life. Only this time, it is the old man who is begging you!"

In the end, the old man was already in tears.
