A mercenary in the world, a ruthless concubine

Chapter 68 Oil Extraction

"Have you found it?" Su Luo asked worriedly.

Qian Lingjue turned around, her white robe was slightly stained, and her hands were stained with a lot of dirt, which completely lost her original bearing, which looked a little funny.

He frowned and said, "The soil here is very sticky. This thing grows very deep, so it's difficult to get it out."

Su Luo simply carried Yabao and walked down. The soil here is really soft, and even the pen smells bad.

A word suddenly appeared in her mind, the purpose of their trip to the mountain - oil.

Thinking of this, she put the torch on the ground to light it up. Sure enough, the reason why the soil is sticky is not because of moisture, but because the land contains oil.

It really didn't take much effort to find any place after breaking through the iron shoes. Su Luo said happily: "Jue, these are the oil we are looking for. There is already so much on the surface. There must be more under the soil."

Qian Lingjue looked at these things in surprise, and then flew up with her in his arms, because he already felt his feet sinking, and there seemed to be liquid flowing underneath.

When he came to the flat ground, Su Luo put a piece of soil in his hand on the ground and lit it with a torch. After a while, the soil started to burn, but because it was mixed with the soil, it burned for a while and then extinguished.

Both of them had surprise smiles on their faces, they finally found what they needed.

Qian Lingjue took the torch and stuck it on the ground, took out a towel and wiped her hands clean, he didn't care about his own mess even though he was a clean freak.

"Is this what you are looking for?" He looked at the big pit in the dark with a strange expression. Could it be that this is the adventure that the ancestor of Xuantian talked about!
Su Luo nodded: "It must be, but the purity here is very high, we don't need professional treatment, which is unexpected to me."

Qian Lingjue smiled warmly, looking so abrupt in such a desolate snow-capped valley, reached into his bosom and took out a strange thing, urging a bright red spark of internal energy to rise high and illuminate the sky.

"Are you giving a signal to Duyun and the others?" Su Luo asked strangely, didn't he mean to be in the dark.

He gently hugged her cold body, the temperature here is getting lower and lower, and they were seriously injured before, although they have recovered, but they are still a little weak.

Qian Lingjue hummed softly, now their purpose of going up the mountain is half completed, now they just want to conserve their strength to look at such a huge pit, there are still many things to come.

The two sat on the ground covered with bamboo leaves, and it wasn't particularly cold through the leaves. Su Luo looked sideways at the man who was hugging her.

The straight nose bridge, the thick eyebrows and deep eyes are closed at this moment, the brows that are often deeply furrowed are relieved at this moment, and the cool and thin lips, all of these are the most perfect existence. An unruly and ruthless temperament, although he was dirty and embarrassed at this time, she knew that this man loved her deeply.

Whether it was Su Luo or herself, she no longer cared about getting along during this time.

Maybe he was really tired, so he fell asleep without any precautions. Su Luo stroked Yabao who was sleeping peacefully, and gradually felt sleepy.

The falling leaves are silent, in such a quiet environment, even if a pair of Bi people are in such a mess, it will not detract from their elegance.

After a long time.

The sky gradually darkened, and Du Yun stood quietly in front of them.

Although he pretended to be sick in the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was always clean and fresh. Now his white clothes were stained with many stains but he was sleeping peacefully. He looked left and right curiously.

With the black lines on the faces of the guards at the side, they could even imagine that Qian Lingjue would have to slash him when he woke up later.

Sure enough, in the silent wind, there was an imperceptible sneer at the corner of the man's mouth, and with a light wave of his left hand, Du Yun couldn't move at all.

Then, the deep and vast black eyes slowly opened, as if to absorb all the elegance in this world: "Next time you dare to offend like this, it won't be a acupuncture point..."

Regardless of the mournful Du Yun, he carefully picked up Su Luo, and Mo Chi, the leader of the dark guards, spread a thick fox fur on the ground tactfully.

Put Su Luo on it carefully, just like treating a baby.

The hidden guards on the side were surprised, but looking at Du Yun's recent situation, none of them dared to speak out.

After walking a little further, Qian Lingjue asked, "Has anyone discovered your whereabouts?"

The voice was not loud but had a deep majesty. Those hidden guards knelt on one knee with solemn expressions.

"Master, don't worry, we have completely disrupted the enemy's sight, and must have been wandering around by now." Mo Chi said respectfully.

Qian Lingjue nodded: "Did you see that big hole?"

Mochi and all the hidden guards looked over there in the darkness, but they could still tell where the big pit was: "I see, it's just here..."

He had undergone rigorous training, and the peculiar smell emanating from it was unfamiliar to them.

"Here is the fuel we need." He said lightly, but he was very serious. Such a discovery must be very difficult, and it will definitely attract the attention of the whole world.

When……

He turned his head to look at the woman who was sleeping peacefully, and then she would be watched by people all over the world.

He felt very uncomfortable when he thought of this, but melting the snow mountain was a great feat, even if he didn't want to.

"Master, how do we collect these things?" Mochi asked calmly.

Qian Lingjue looked at the surrounding bamboo forest. According to Su Luo, these things are liquid, so it is best to pack them in bamboo tubes.

Looking at the dark sky with a calm expression: "One group of people will make bamboo tubes, the more the better, and the other group will start to make bamboo rafts and step on the bamboo rafts to dig down."

He had already stayed in that big pit just now, if he stood on it alone, he would probably sink soon, so it shouldn't be a big problem to use a bamboo raft.

Mo Chi and other hidden guards led away, and soon the huge bamboo forest was filled with the sound of felling. Qian Lingjue sat beside Su Luo, and Ya Bao seemed to be woken up by her bosom. She glared at him dissatisfied, then sat gracefully on his lap, full of energy.

"You are so bold, my legs have never been sat on before." Qian Lingjue saw how cute this little thing was, and couldn't help teasing it.

Yabao looked up at him, proudly raised her little head.

Qian Lingjue laughed lowly.

This is Su Luo waking up slowly, his eyes slowly adapting to the light in front of him, the man's handsome silhouette came into view, and he was teasing the lazy little snow fox on his lap with a smile on his lips.

"Jue, when did you wake up?" She sat up and asked in a daze.

"It didn't take long, I didn't wake you up when I saw you were tired."

Touching the soft fox fur with her hand, she frowned. Their fox fur disappeared when they fell off the cliff. This is...

"Duyun and the others are here!" asked in surprise.

In the end, it was not Qian Lingjue who answered, but a miserable voice behind him: "Madam..."

Su Luo was taken aback, turned around and looked at the strange Du Yun: "What are you doing, what are you doing here?"

Du Yun almost cried, he was so regretful that his intestines were green.

"Ma'am, save me, I won't dare to peek at you sleeping next time!" He howled, Su Luo's head was full of black lines.

She turned her head to look at the man who had nothing to do with her, and she became even more depressed: "That...how about letting him go first."

Qian Lingjue raised her head, took her hand lovingly, and stood up lazily with the other hand holding the well-behaved Yabao, as if she couldn't see Duyun, and said, "Go, I'll go ahead and have a look. Their bamboo should be almost ready."

Su Luo followed him and stood up, shaking his head helplessly at Du Yun, expressing that he was helpless.

Du Yun howled through the sky.

When Su Luo saw the bamboo rafts and bamboo tubes made by those people, she admired this seemingly harmless man even more.

After everything was ready, there were a total of 15 of them, each of whom drove a bamboo raft down to the deep pit. After a while, they had lit many torches and stuck them on the cave wall.

In an instant, it was bright everywhere, and everyone continued to dig down with their tools.

Su Luo and Qian Lingjue stood on it and watched, and it didn't take long for them to see the turbid liquid appearing quietly under the bamboo raft.

"Oil!?" Su Luo looked in surprise. This is what she was looking for. Such pure oil is probably rare in the 21st century.

Seeing her confirmation, Qian Lingjue immediately ordered: "Leave ordinary people here to fill the cans, and the other half will come up to pick them up."

His order was an imperial decree to these hidden guards, obediently and consciously divided without pushing, ordinary people flew up to the top.

Su Luo made up her mind that she would also train her own women's dark guard, which is really cool.

It really went smoothly, and soon they filled up the bamboo tube jars that were just finished, and the oil just went down a little bit, and the amount here was more than she imagined.

"Master, are these enough?" Mo Chi asked with his hands clasped.

Su Luo looked at it and estimated that at most one-third of it can be melted here, at least so much that it needs to be made twice: "Not enough, but let's go back first, and come back when we go back and get the preparations done."

Mochi turned his head to look at Qian Lingjue, he nodded in agreement, Su Luo snorted, isn't this clearly ignoring her!

It was just a few things to do, but it took a very, very long time. By the time they packed up and prepared to leave, it was already dawn, the sky was slightly pale, and a new day was about to begin.

Before leaving, Qian Lingjue finally walked to Du Yun's side, and after watching for a long time, he stretched out his hand and gently and skillfully opened his acupuncture points.

"Ah~~" Du Yun fell to the ground exhausted, his muscles stiffened.

Su Luo took a step forward and looked at the gurgling stream. This stream passed directly through the mountain, and through this stream, he could directly return to the river at the foot of the mountain.

"Jue, you said we put these oil-filled bamboo tubes on the stream, and we follow along, can we transport them out at once?" She said to the person who was still worrying about how to transport them out just now.

Qian Lingjue's eyes lit up, this idea is really good.
