Monk Xihe scratched his head in confusion, feeling like something was wrong.
*******
At this moment in the Xiniu Hezhou camp, the monks were all flushed and were shouting and celebrating excitedly.
They were toasting each other, sipping champagne and drinking red wine around the "Magic Crystal Mine" they had just taken over.
After all, even the magic crystal mine has been secured, so what else is there to worry about?
Judging from the quality of the raw ore that the pink-haired little girl showed before, the scale of the magic crystal mine here must be very large, and it will be no problem to use it for several years!
The mining team has already set out to dig in the mining area, and now all they have to do is wait for good news...
Venerable Banrol chuckled and looked towards the mining area.
The monk captain in charge of mining has returned. Looking at his stunned expression, he must have great news to report. He was probably stunned by the huge reserves.
"Venerable Banrol, may I have a word with you?" The team leader in charge of mining bent down and whispered in Banrol's ear.
"No need, we are all family, just talk here."
"Uh, okay..." The mining team leader's face twitched a few times, and he lowered his voice and said, "Reporting to Your Excellency, the mine is empty."
The wrinkles on the Venerable's face suddenly froze, as if the model had lost frame rate.
"What do you mean?" he hissed.
"We continued to dig down along the mines mined by the Tang people. We dug to the bedrock layer, but didn't see any magic crystal ore..."
"???"
"And there will be no mines in the bedrock layer. Your Excellency, please forgive me for being blunt... this mine is fake."

116. The Imperial Master’s Secret Weapon
"Ahhhh-"
Accompanied by a roar from the southeast that cut through the night sky.
[Obtained 20000 villain points from the Venerable Banrol. ]
It's been a while since I got so many villain points at once.
It seems that I have lived too comfortably in the past seven years.
Villain points can be exchanged for Severity points at a ratio of 10 to 1. Even if you don’t exchange them, you can directly draw from the random pool, so they are still very useful.
The nearest random pool is the [Word Spirit Page], which records an unknown word spirit technique.
Jiang Ke'er didn't really need it for the time being. In her opinion, resurrecting her eldest disciple Pei Min was a higher priority.
There are only two materials left to revive the eldest disciple, so I have to work harder to earn points.
"Boom boom boom——"
Outside the barrier of the Tang Dynasty camp, there was a knocking sound.
It was Venerable Banluoer, and he was followed by a group of monks, teachers and students from Xiniu Hezhou.
At this time, their faces were gloomy, and they stood at the edge of the barrier like zombies.
Banrol seemed to have spent a lot of effort to open his mouth: "Can we discuss the water source issue again..."
How arrogant they were when they occupied the water source, how humble they are now.
The magic crystal ore is fake and the water is gone.
Now the situation has turned around. The Tang Dynasty has completely occupied the water source and even built a barrier, leaving them no chance to poison the water.
Sin!
If their attitude had not been so arrogant at the beginning, perhaps there would have been room for negotiation.
However, Xiniu Hezhou had already inadvertently blocked all retreat routes during the negotiations, and never expected that the situation would turn around.
It’s all that elementary school student’s fault!
He became furious whenever he thought of this incident - he was actually outshone by a primary school student!
Why are you pointing at mines for no reason? Don't you know that people will die?
He has already learned to lie at such a young age, and he has fooled a bunch of senior monks... What will this brat be like when he grows up? !
Although Banrol didn't think that all this was arranged by the elementary school student, and that there must be an experienced senior behind her who was giving her advice...but the serious look on her face when she was lying was still unforgivable!
If he gets the chance, he will definitely teach that nonsense-talking girl a lesson!
Of course, before that, he had to humbly beg for forgiveness from the Tang Dynasty.
Otherwise, they, who already have insufficient fighting power, will soon face the problems of lack of water and spiritual power at the same time.
That would be troublesome.
"You want water? That's easy." Great Hero Taibai smiled calmly, "We, the people of the Tang Dynasty, value benevolence and fairness, and would never do such despicable things as kicking someone when they are down."
Banrol was slightly stunned - is there really such a good thing?
"Although you have been very difficult for us before, we will not take advantage of the opportunity to do anything excessive," said Taibai, standing in the barrier with a bowl of water in his hand. "If you want water, it's very simple. We will do what you asked us to do before."
Banrol's face fell.
What did they ask for before?
They required all Tang people to huddle in a corner, be kept in a pen like pigs, dogs and other livestock, and wait for water and food to be fed.
Of course, Banrol could not accept such a request!
"Bullying...this is too much!" Banrol was so angry that he was sweating all over.
"Too much? We are just returning your request in full," said Master Taibai, taking the water away lightly. "Isn't this unfair?"
"..."Banrol was speechless for a moment.
"Of course, it doesn't have to be like this," Master Taibai suddenly changed the subject.
Banrol looked up.
"There is another way," Great Hero Taibai glanced at Jiang Ke'er, nodded secretly, and said, "As long as you open the barrier, we can provide enough fresh water, enough."
Banrol was a bit shaken.
Although, as a high-level monk, he does not need fresh water.
But there were many ordinary people traveling with them. If they lost water, they would not be able to survive for more than a few days.
He may not care about the lives of ordinary people... but if those teachers and students died, this escort mission would become a stain on his life.
Even if he could return to Xiniu Hezhou in the end, he would be too ashamed to face anyone.
When he reaches the level of a venerable, what he cares about most is no longer monetary gain, but fame.
If you want to maintain your reputation, you must protect these ordinary teachers and students.
Therefore, if opening the barrier could exchange for sufficient fresh water resources, he would be willing to try it.
He knew that after the barrier was opened, he would face the fighting power of the Tang Empire.
But even if the Tang Dynasty had overwhelming strength, he was confident that he could fight to the death with them.
That was not the result that the Tang Dynasty wanted to see, so this wave of transactions might be...
"No."
A faint voice came from behind Banrol.
The voice sounded a little childish, but extremely calm and firm.
Banrol looked back and saw that it was just a little kid.
"What do you know as a little kid?!" Banrol was furious. "Don't interrupt when adults are talking!"
The little boy rolled his eyes at him and said, "I know what you are thinking. You think that even if you open the barrier, they won't dare to do anything, and it's not too bad to exchange it for fresh water resources... But have you ever thought about their intention in doing this?"
"It's nothing more than grabbing more food and medicinal herbs from the mountains and forests," Banrol said with a disdainful smile, "We have sufficient reserves of these things, and there are more ways to obtain them. There is no need to worry at all."
"Naive." The little boy sneered, "They are after this thing."
The little boy waved his hand and threw a black crystal towards Banrol.
Banrol raised his hand to take it.
But the answer was empty!
Jiang Ke'er was quick-witted and agile. She quietly used the sacred theft technique and grabbed the crystal!
"???"
Banrol was stunned.
But the little boy's mouth corners unconsciously curled up.
Jiang Ke'er thought to herself that something was wrong and quickly threw the black stone away.
"boom!"
The rocks exploded in the air and turned into a ball of black mist.
Even though Jiang Ke'er dodged the explosion, the black fog seemed to have eyes and flew straight towards Jiang Ke'er!
Jiang Ke'er drew her sword and slashed, summoning lightning and thunder sword intent to chop at the black fog.
But the black fog was invisible and intangible, as if it was in another time and space, and was not affected by the lightning and sword strikes at all!
And its speed was extremely fast. By the time Jiang Keer reacted, the black mist had completely penetrated into her body through her right hand!
"?"
Jiang Ke'er looked at her right hand in confusion.
She didn't feel any discomfort in her body, just like usual.
But her intuition told her that something seemed to be different.
"congratulations!"
The little boy transformed by Master Yuwen burst into laughter.
"What the hell is this?" Jiang Ke'er stared at him.
"This was one of the most commonly used weapons in the old days of 'Changle State', called the 'Fortune Returning Stone'."
(1/1 The supermarket downstairs opened and there was a lot of noise all day. I will make up for it with five updates tomorrow. I will challenge my limits.)
117. Zero Moment
Jiang Ke'er scratched her head after hearing this.
"Fortune...returned to zero?"
As we all know, our fortune value should be negative.
Negative numbers return to zero...
Is there such a good thing? I have become a non-Chinese?
However, when Master Taibai heard this, he was so frightened that he cried out that something was wrong.
Jiang Qingyi, this little girl, can comprehend the power of thunder and lightning sword at such a young age, and can even find the treasure map of Jiuzhou Ding. She must be extremely blessed.
To destroy her fortune is to destroy her future!
"'Changle Province' is one of the 'Double Honored Provinces' in Kyushu. Before its collapse, it always regarded 'blessings and fate' as the supreme resource reserve. The way they kill people is to erase the other party's blessings and fate."
Great Hero Taibai looked at Jiang Ke'er with regret and explained, "Fortune is a kind of energy that cannot be seen or touched, but can actually affect destiny... People with high fortune will have their wishes come true, and the whole world will help them. People with low fortune will have the whole world as their enemy, and they may choke to death even if they drink water!"
"As expected of the well-read Taibai hero, he has even heard of 'Changle Prefecture'," said Yuwen Guoshi, who had transformed into a little boy, laughing. "He is much more reliable than a fox that slacks off and messes with children all day long."
Hero Taibai did not pay attention to the second half of the sentence. His attention was attracted by the three words "Changle Prefecture".
The little boy said that he found this "Luck Returning Stone" on the island, and the "Luck Returning Stone" is a specialty of Changle Prefecture, which means...
Hidden on this island is the Jiuzhou Ding from Changle Prefecture, one of the two supreme prefectures? !
