Liyuan Holy Land.
In a quiet and elegant small building.
Squeak——
Qin Lingxue’s pretty face flushed as she closed the book in her hand. Due to her agitated emotions, she used too much force with her slender fingers and actually tore a big hole in the cover.
Her eyes were hazy, and her mind kept replaying scenes that made her blush and her heart beat fast. Her heart was in a mess.
“This… How could it be possible that the Taoist of Taixuan Holy Land would recommend such a disgusting thing to me!”
Qin Lingxue was embarrassed and annoyed, and her delicate and flawless jade face was covered with frost. She wanted to pick up a sword and chop someone into pieces.
But she soon calmed down from her embarrassment:
“Could it be that I just picked out a book of this type, and most of the other books are normal…”
Thinking of this, she took out another book and flipped through it, but she saw more explicit content.
Then, she took out all the books in the storage bracelet and checked them one by one. The more she looked, the more her face flushed. In the end, she confirmed a fact:
None of the books that Taixuan Daozi gave her were regular.
“Too much!”
Qin Lingxue was so angry that her eyebrows were raised, and she immediately wanted to destroy all these unsightly books…
Just then, a warm and pleasant female voice came from outside the door:
“Xue’er, are you there?”
The master is here!
Qin Lingxue was startled when she heard the voice, and hurriedly put away all the books. Then she tidied up her appearance and went out to greet him with a guilty conscience.
If the master found out that she was reading such an improper book, she would definitely be disappointed in herself…
Qin Lingxue felt uneasy, and even her breathing was a little messy.
There stood a beautiful woman in palace dress under the porch. She was tall, with a face like a lotus, eyes like autumn water, and a powerful sword intent lingering in her graceful and dignified manner. She was Qiu Lanjun, the supreme elder of Liyuan Holy Land.
After seeing the beautiful woman in front of her, Qin Lingxue hurried forward and saluted respectfully.
“Disciple greets Master, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?”
Qiu Lanjun looked her up and down, keenly aware of the other party’s difference, and asked softly:
“Xue’er, are you hiding something from me now?”
Hearing this, Qin Lingxue’s heart immediately skipped a beat, and her expression became unnatural:
“No, no, I was just reading.”
She was not good at lying, and it was her limit to be able to hold back from explaining the content of the book.
“Reading?”
Qiu Lanjun frowned slightly and looked at Qin Lingxue suspiciously.
She found that her always cold and indifferent disciple was like a different person at this moment, with a ruddy complexion, a radiant look, and an indescribable agility and freshness.
Qiu Lanjun observed carefully for a moment, and finally couldn’t help but encourage:
“Xue’er, although your master doesn’t know how you became like this, what your master wants to say is that you are on the right path!”
“Your master knows that you are troubled by the mental problems brought about by the Mingshuang Sword, and you don’t want to become a walking corpse without emotions, so you have tried many ways to arouse your emotions.”
“Originally, your master was worried that you would go astray if you continued like this, but now it seems that the method you found this time is very effective…”
“Ah?”
Qin Lingxue was stunned. She had planned to confess this to Qiu Lanjun, and she was even prepared to be punished.
I didn’t expect that her master not only didn’t ask the root of the matter, but encouraged her to continue…
What’s the rhythm?
Looking at the shy Qin Lingxue, Qiu Lanjun nodded with a smile on his face and said earnestly:
“Disciple, what we cultivators pursue is to be detached from the world and free and easy. As long as you find something that interests you, you don’t have to care about other people’s ideas and just follow your heart.”
“You must remember that the Mingshuang Sword is a sword of justice, not a vicious and evil weapon. How could it freeze the emotions and soul of the sword holder? What can really trap you is alwaysIt’s you.”
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Qin Lingxue standing there in shock.
After pondering for a long time, Qin Lingxue came back to her senses and muttered to herself:
“Master, do you want me to…try? ”
She felt flustered at the thought of continuing to read that kind of book.
Thinking about it now, the feeling of taboo, novelty and excitement when reading the book is indeed something she has never experienced before…
Half a month later.
Western Demon Realm.
Mining area.
There is no grass in the canyon, and the exposed rocks are a strange brown-red color, making it difficult to tell whether it is rust or solidified blood.
In the center of the canyon is a bottomless underground crack.
Bursts of golden evil spirits like substance seeped out from the crack, combined with the whistling cold wind, making this gloomy and coldness penetrate deeper into the bone marrow.
From time to time, a team of demon sect disciples with open arms flew by, patrolling back and forth in the canyon to prevent the hard laborers in the mine from escaping. , while ensuring that the precious red gold veins here are not raided by foreign monks.
In a luxuriously decorated quiet room deep underground, a middle-aged man in a black robe and a gold belt, with a fierce aura, sat at the head, listening to his subordinates’ reports with a solemn face:
“Reporting to Deacon Situ, this month’s production of high-quality red gold is 13,700 kilograms, and a total of 28 hard laborers died…”
The speaker is a skinny old man with dark skin. He obviously knows that this data cannot satisfy the superiors. He kneels on the ground with a trembling face, not even daring to raise his head.
Sure enough, hearing this number, the deacon elder Situ Yun who is in charge of the entire mine immediately frowned and said in a cold voice:
“A bunch of trash, can’t even do this little thing well. It’s almost the end of the year. If you fail to complete the annual requirements issued by the sect, then you and I will wait to prepare for the funeral. ”
Hearing this, the dark and thin old man trembled all over and said hurriedly:
“You also know that a group of gold-eating beasts suddenly emerged from deep underground last month. Although they were quickly wiped out, hundreds of laborers still died.”
“We were short of manpower to begin with, and we are still increasing mining this month, which has killed many laborers.”
“However, my subordinates have already notified all the branches. Our mine is purchasing laborers at a high price. Try not to kill the monks captured in such a short time. You can sell them here in exchange for twice as many spirit stones as before.”
“The effect of this move is good. We have added a group of new people today, and the output will be able to increase next month. ”
Red gold ore is the basic material for refining magic tools, most of which are located underground at a depth of more than a thousand feet. In addition, red gold ore is extremely hard, and mortals simply cannot withstand such a harsh mining environment.
Therefore, all those who can do hard labor in this mine are cultivators. In addition to a large number of Qi Refining cultivators, there are even many Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The vast majority of the hard laborers are righteous cultivators or independent cultivators who were captured alive by the Yin Sha Sect disciples, mixed with some Yin Sha Sect disciples who made mistakes.
“Okay.”
Hearing this assurance, Situ Yun’s expression eased a little, and he said lightly:
“You also know the way the Holy Sect punishes waste. If you don’t want to go to the Soul Refining Cave, it’s better to exceed the task.”
“From now on, the mining time of all hard laborers will be extended by one hour. This deacon does not want to hear the number of casualties. As long as the output of red gold is increased, anyone who dares to make trouble will be killed directly. Do you understand? ”
At the end, his voice was already stern and murderous.
Once this order is issued, it means that the already very poor living conditions of the laborers will be further deteriorated. I don’t know how many people will be exhausted to death.
Of course, if they really cared so much about human lives, the Yinsha Sect would not be called the Demon Sect.
“As you command!”
The skinny old man’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. He hurriedly agreed and turned away dejectedly.
After his men left, Situ Yun’s expression instantly darkened.
If possible, he would not want to come here to be a deacon or elder.
The spiritual energy in the mine is thin, and there are many affairs. Not to mention the poor training environment, it is normal to do well, but it is easy to take the blame if something goes wrong. It is simply a thankless job.
The dignified Situ familyAs a direct descendant of the Ji clan, he had not committed any mistakes, but was actually sent to this barren place to mine by the peak master of the Ji clan. Isn’t this a humiliation?
It’s a pity that the ancestor of the Ji family has now broken through the peak of Mahayana, and the Ji clan is in its heyday in the clan. He can only grit his teeth and swallow it.
“I just hope that the head of the family can reach an agreement with the Shen clan as soon as possible to fight against the behemoth Ji clan. Then I won’t have to endure this humiliation anymore…”
Thinking of this, Situ Yun sighed and fell into cultivation again.
