Mysterious Tang Dynasty

The Rat King started its digging project, but Li Lijun and Erhong stayed in the cave above, not idle with nothing to do.

At the beginning, they would hold mirrors and observe the rat king digging the mountain.

Rat King took many small paper cranes with him, and after digging a certain distance, he would dig out a small space on the side as a temporary warehouse and resting place, and then left a small paper crane there.The eyes of the little paper crane have been specially treated to have functions similar to infrared night vision devices, allowing them to see in the dark.Holding the mirror, Li Lijun and Erhong could see the situation around those little paper cranes.

It's a pity that the Rat King only dug out a passage not much bigger than the mouth of the bowl for the time being.Through the mirror, they could at most see a corner of the passage, occasionally seeing the tail or back of the Mouse King, but other than that, they couldn't see anything clearly.

The Rat King has armor and a helmet, but no lighting equipment.One is because it has racial talent, even in the dark, it can recognize the direction it is heading and what it is digging, without having to set up additional lighting; The light source may attract enemy attacks.

The Rat King adapts well to this situation, but Li Lijun and Erhong can only see the rocks and rat tails through the mirror, which is too boring.They quickly put the mirror on the ground, and occasionally glanced at it, freeing their hands to do other things.

Erhong simply took advantage of the abundant aura around her to start cultivating, and quickly realized the benefits of cultivating in this environment.However, she was still worried about the Mouse King. After a round of practice, she had to pick up the mirror and take a few glances. There was no way to calm down, and the efficiency of practice was greatly reduced.Two or three times like this, she simply put down her practice, took out materials from the storage bag she carried with her, made a few more small paper cranes, and then took out a cassock that had just been half made, and got busy Needlework.

The little lady taught her a new method of making robes, and she had another practical experience, so she started making new clothes by herself, mainly to keep out the cold.Now it's autumn, and in two or three months, it will be winter.In such a season, even Qi Refining cultivators would feel that the sky is very cold. Even if the vestment with good cold protection effect is made of ordinary materials and does not have many other functions, it must be a good seller.While she had time, she had to quickly make a few more pieces, and trade them after the cultivation market opened, in exchange for spirit stones, so that she could get more materials and cultivation resources back.

Erhong knew in her heart that although the little lady worshiped a powerful sword fairy as her master, she had good exercises and a lot of good things in her hands, but after all, the little lady only had one person, and that sword fairy didn't plan to support his apprentice. Maid, therefore, she, Qiuxiang, Yuebai, and Lu Siyun are all supported by the little lady alone.Even if they grow up in the future, they can become the little lady's help, but before that, they can't just eat rice.As long as they can share their worries for the little lady, it is only natural for them to do more work.

While Erhong was immersed in her needlework, Li Lijun had already finished her training and was observing the small hole that the Mouse King had dug on the mountain wall earlier, thinking about how to deal with it. …

This hole is not big, barely enough for one person to stay in, far from being comfortable, it is just a small shrine for the Rat King.Wouldn't it be a pity to dig out a hole for such a big deal, if it's only used as a rat's nest?Besides, the Rat King prefers his own nest, so he doesn't want to stay outside in this cold cave, so he might as well use it for another use.

Li Lijun stared at the small cave, while touching his chin, while thinking.

Although she can make use of her experience in making a small shrine for the Rat King, and create a convenient portable cave for herself, and embed it directly in this small cave, she can live comfortably, but she hasn't figured it out yet. Do you come with the cave?Doing it now is too time consuming.

It's only a few days before the opening of the cultivation market, and she finally came to Bald Mountain. The aura here is so abundant, isn't it a pity to spend all her time on refining weapons?She might as well seize the time to improve her cultivation!That way, even if she encounters any trouble at the market, she will have more confidence in her heart.

Thinking of this, she began to use the earth spells she mastered, digging directly on the mountain wall, and expanding the small cave into a space of about ten square meters. Although it was only two meters high, it could barely accommodate two people and one mouse. Rest and practice here.

The Rat King had been digging the mountain for an hour, and when he came back from the cave, Li Lijun had just dug the cave and washed it clean with water.Although a layer of ice soon formed on the mountain wall after passing through the water, she quickly spread a few sheepskin blankets on the ground, so she was not afraid of the cold air of the ice layer.

Erhong moved her working place. In this newly opened side cave, there are cave walls to block the mountain wind, sheepskin blankets to keep out the cold, and Hanhai lanterns to provide heating and lighting. Compared with the original cave, it is much more comfortable. up.She simply took out the small red clay stove and kitchen utensils that she carried with her, cooked a pot of thick ginger soup, added some light yellow sugar brought from Chang'an, everyone drank a bowl, and the whole person (the whole person) mouse) can be warmed up.

While drinking the owner's ginger soup with extra sugar, the Rat King talked about his experience of digging holes in the mountains.

The rock is quite hard, but not much harder than Taibai Mountain. The low temperature problem is not worth mentioning after it has an armor cover and a cold protection talisman.It's just that it has drilled the hole for so long, and it has only traveled less than a hundred feet. When you look up, there is nothing else after removing the rock, and it feels a bit boring.But even so, it can keep going.

Every ten feet it advances, it will dig a side hole to put the little paper cranes in. Now the little paper cranes are almost used up, but nothing of value has been found, so when it comes out, it takes most of the little paper cranes. The paper cranes were all taken back.In the future, just in case, it will follow the previous practice, but in the end it will ensure that only one small paper crane is used every [-] feet.

It also took out a few stones and showed them to the hosts Erhong and Li Lijun: "As the little lady ordered, I specially collected a stone every ten feet and brought it out to make that... sample. These stones are similar to those from my hometown. It’s no different, but there’s so much aura!”

Li Lijun carefully identified it, and felt that what it said was correct.Although these rocks looked like ordinary mountain rocks, there was quite a lot of aura in them.Based on this inference, there is a high possibility that there is a spiritual vein in the mountain.If the Rat King continues to dig, even if he can't find the ancestor Lin Yuan, the harvest of Lingshi alone will be satisfactory.

As for the other rocks that were dug out, the Mouse King originally stored them in a small storage bag, and it was already stuffed to the brim. Even his belly contained a lot, and now they are all poured out. Pretend it, and save it for Li Lijun to refine Xiaofan Tianyin in the future.The cold mountain rock full of aura is actually a good material for refining weapons.

The Rat King rested for a while, and after eating and drinking, he went back to the cave to work again.

Li Lijun continued to arrange the small side hole.She first arranged a concealment formation at the entrance of the small cave connecting the side cave with the outside world, so as to prevent outsiders from noticing her newly created temporary cave, and then arranged various defensive formations, cold protection formations and spirit gathering formations in the side cave .Arranging the Spirit Gathering Formation in such a space full of aura will greatly increase the concentration of aura in the space.Practicing in such an environment can get twice the result with half the effort. Even Erhong dropped her needlework and began to cultivate her mind.

Sitting cross-legged on the woolen blanket, Li Lijun felt the abundant and cool spiritual energy circulate through his body again, his cultivation level increased a bit, and a comfortable smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
