"That's what the lady taught you." The supervisors responded quickly.
"Hypocrisy." Hearing the seemingly kind words of the girl in white, Xiao Yan curled his lips disdainfully. He knew without asking that the status of this girl in white in the mine would not be that low, otherwise she would not Although the supervisors were so flattering, her remarks that seemed to be for the sake of the miners were of little use in Xiao Yan's opinion.
If you expect the oppressor to communicate with the oppressed, it is better to believe that he is Qin Shihuang... Xiao Yan can be sure that not only will the supervisors not change after they return, but they will intensify and spread their grievances against the other miners. On the other hand, this guy patted his ass and walked away. He might feel that he had done a good thing, but in fact it only added fuel to the conflict between them.
"Who is that little girl?" Some young miners couldn't help asking. They looked at the girl in white with a bit of amazement in their eyes. They were obviously attracted by her appearance. "What is her identity? She is so... sharp?"
"Are you talking about Miss Lin Jing? Miss Lin Jing is not actually from the Yangyuan Mine. However, her aunt is the owner of the Yangyuan Mine. The owner of the mine loves her very much, so she also speaks out in this mine. "Yes." said a miner who has spent a lot of time here.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan also shook his head speechlessly. This little girl looked like she was actually called Lin Jing. Her personality didn't seem to be quiet at all. It would be better to change her name to Lin Dong, but Lin Dong was more suitable. The name doesn't sound like a girl...
After walking around in the mine, Lin Jing felt a little bored. Just when she was about to go home, she suddenly noticed Xiao Yan, who was sweating profusely and silently waving a pickaxe in the crowd. Seeing this pale-faced, thin-bodied boy who looked so frail that he could fall over with just a push, she felt compassion.
And for some reason, she always felt that this black-haired boy was particularly pleasing to the eye, and she immediately decided to help him. So she pointed at Xiao Yan in the crowd and said, "Who is that, come here."
"Ah?" Xiao Yan, who was mining, was stunned when he saw Lin Jing suddenly click on him. What was this little girl calling him for? Is it possible that my trouble-making physique can be useful in this world?
Xiao Yan's body was naturally not weak. The reason why he was sweating profusely was not because he was tired, but because of the injuries in his body caused by swinging the pickaxe, so he broke into a cold sweat in pain. What he didn't expect was , was it because of his performance that the spirited Miss Lin Jing noticed him?
"I still need someone to serve tea and water, so just follow me." Lin Jing thought of a reason, then glanced at the supervisors nearby and asked, "I will take him away, you should No objection?"
"No, of course not." The supervisors responded quickly. Not to mention that Lin Jing just took away a slave. Even if she wanted to kill the slave on the spot, there would be no problem. What's more, the person she took away was a slave who looked like a slave. If you are very sick and may die at any time, then there is no problem.
Others looked at Xiao Yan with some envy. In their opinion, being able to serve a lady must be much easier than being a miner. Many people even wondered whether Miss Lin Jing saw Xiao Yan's appearance. She is handsome, so she wants to make him her male favorite. After all, as a eldest lady, there is definitely no shortage of people around her to serve tea and water.
"Tsk, it's really troublesome..." Xiao Yan muttered silently in his heart, and then walked to Lin Jing's side. This girl's status was not low, and she seemed to have some relationship with the mysterious woman in white. Maybe he could learn from it. Some useful information was found on her.
"What's your name?" Lin Jing glanced at Xiao Yan, who looked a little weak, and asked as she was being taken back by Lin Jing.
"Xiao Yan." Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, and then reported his real name. After all, no one in this world knew him, so it didn't matter what name he used.
"Xiao Yan? That's a pretty good name." Lin Jing nodded, then looked at Xiao Yan again, and said: "Then from today on, you are my subordinate. Don't worry, you will never suffer any loss if you follow me. Yes, from now on you will bid farewell to your life as a slave and join me in enjoying the rich and delicious food."
"Then what do I need to do?" Xiao Yan quietly put his palms behind his back, and a wisp of fighting spirit quietly emerged in his palms.
"Well... just bring tea and water." Lin Jing thought for a while and said.
"That's all?" Xiao Yan asked somewhat unexpectedly.
"That's all." Lin Jing nodded, and then whispered, "Actually, I didn't want you to do anything. After all, your body is so weak... But if you really don't do anything, my aunt will tell you, so Just let you do something simple."
"Miss, you are really a good person." Xiao Yan smiled slightly and silently removed his ray of fighting spirit. It seemed that this little girl was just kind-hearted occasionally and had no other purpose, so there was no need to hurt her. Killer.
What Lin Jing didn't know was that her words happened to save her life. If she really treated Xiao Yan as a slave, Xiao Yan would definitely kill her without hesitation.
As for now... this little girl is quite kind-hearted, so I can take advantage of her.
"By the way, have you been so sick since you were a child?" Lin Jing continued to ask. Apparently, she also noticed Xiao Yan's pale and unusual complexion.
"Yes, I have been weak and sickly since I was born." Xiao Yan coughed a few times at the right time. Since the other party felt this way, he would obey him. Anyway, leaving the impression of a medicine jar on the other party would also help him in the future. Some action.
"Even people with this kind of illness are captured as coolies... They are all those damn strange monsters!" Lin Jing clenched her fists and said angrily.
Hearing this, Xiao Yan also narrowed his eyes slightly. According to the information he got from chatting with other people in the mine before, the Yang Yuan Stone mined in this mine will eventually be handed over to the strange demons, but seeing Lin Jing's look seems like they are also extremely dissatisfied with the strange demon. In this case, why do they want to do things for the strange demon?
Or is this just Lin Jing's idea, and everyone else is willing to become the slaves of the strange demon?
Xiao Yan did not ask this question. Everything could not be found out until he recovered from his injuries.
Chapter 253: Eroded Energy
Perhaps because he became the servant of the eldest lady, Xiao Yan's treatment was much better than before. He even had a separate room. Xiao Yan could also take this opportunity to refine some elixirs to recover from his injuries. Fortunately, he had collected a lot of medicinal materials before, and now Najie also stored a lot of healing medicinal materials, which saved him the trouble of collecting medicinal materials. Otherwise, he really didn't know if the world had the medicinal materials he needed.
During this period of time, he also used some methods to collect the memories of other people, and by insinuating Lin Jing, he also obtained a lot of information about the world.
This world is called Tianxuan Continent, which is somewhat similar to Dou Qi Continent, except that the people here are not practicing Dou Qi, but Yuan Li. However, although the systems are different, there are some similarities. Although the realm here is The divisions are not as detailed as those in Dou Qi Continent, but the process of cultivation is much more dangerous.
As far as he knows, the strong men in this world need to absorb certain special energies in the early stages of cultivation, such as the so-called Yang Gang power and Yin evil power. In addition to the need to absorb certain special energies to set foot in Dou Emperor, Dou Qi Continent Without such conditions, the Yang Yuan Stone they mined before can be refined into the so-called Yang Yuan Dan to assist in this stage of cultivation.
And Yang Yuan Dan is only the lowest auxiliary material. There are also stronger Pure Yuan Dan, Nirvana Dan, Xuanyuan Dan...
After knowing these things, Xiao Yan can also confirm that the overall cultivation speed of this world should be much faster than that of Dou Qi Continent, but the number of their high-level combat power is definitely not as good as that of Dou Qi Continent, because relying on these external forces to quickly upgrade will always There will be disadvantages. It will be more difficult to improve as you go later. According to Xiao Yan's guess, the Nirvana Tribulation and Triple Tribulation of Tianxuan Continent came from this.
Because of long-term cultivation with the help of external forces, some problems have arisen in the strength of the body, such as empty Yuan force, unstable foundation, etc. These Nirvana tribulations are derived from the power of heaven and earth in this world to solve this problem. The purpose is to help these advanced practitioners solidify their foundation.
But this kind of Nirvana tribulation itself is extremely dangerous. If you fail to overcome the tribulation, you will be wiped out! And this is just the cultivation of the Nirvana realm. The so-called Nirvana realm, placed in Xiao Yan's world, is at most equivalent to fighting kings and emperors. People in this realm will die on the spot if they fail to break through. This kind of The situation can be said to be unimaginable to people from Douqi Continent.
Although there are many levels in Dou Qi Continent, there are almost no dangers in the cultivation process, let alone any talk of overcoming tribulations, because the practice in Dou Qi Continent is almost step by step, even if there is an external force to improve it, one or two stars are improved. In Tianxuan Continent, it is not even comparable to a small realm.
Generally speaking, the cultivation progress of Tianxuan Continent is very fast, but when it reaches a certain level, it will be stuck and it is difficult to advance, and the process is extremely dangerous. However, although the cultivation of Douqi Continent is slower, there will not be any danger. The so-called The backlash of fighting spirit and the like are nothing compared to the Nirvana Tribulation.
The Ancestral Realm is the highest realm known in this world. If the woman in white said that the Ancestral Realm is equivalent to Dou Di, then her current strength should be at the point where she has survived the third level of reincarnation in this world. , and it is also the most peak one.
There are no alchemists in this world, only talisman masters. This kind of talisman master is good at using mental power to attack and can refine weapons. It is precisely because of this that the weapon system here is more complete than that in Dou Qi Continent. Of course, it refers to Today's Dou Qi Continent, if we compare the Dou Qi Continent where the weapon refiners did not decline in ancient times, it would definitely not be inferior to Talisman Masters.
Of course, although Talisman Masters are good at refining weapons, there are not many Talisman Masters who are good at refining weapons. Even the competitions in the Talisman Master Tower in the past were just mental battles, not weapon refining. They have become good at using mental power. The fighting crowd, not even Xiao Yan, knew why this profession was called Talisman Master. Does this have anything to do with the so-called "talisman"?
In addition, Xiao Yan tested it and found that the spatial stability of this world seemed to be inferior to that of Dou Qi Continent. This also led to the fact that if Xiao Yan fought in this world, the damage caused would be far more terrifying than that of Dou Qi Continent. If originally he could only shatter a space of tens of thousands of feet with one punch, then in this world he could shatter a space of hundreds of thousands or even millions of feet with one punch.
After being nourished by the elixir during this period, Xiao Yan's injuries in his body have recovered by about 30% to 40%. Although there is still a long way to go before he is fully healed, with his configuration and the soul power of the Emperor Realm level, he can clean up the Nine-Star Fighting Saint. It shouldn't be a problem, and this also gives him some confidence in this world.
After he recovered a little from his injuries, Xiao Yan also tried to run Fen Jue, and then he unexpectedly discovered that his strength seemed to have improved a little. Of course, this did not mean that he had entered the level of Dou Emperor. But this feeling of increased strength is real.
Not only that, he also sensed the special energy needed to break through the Dou Emperor in many places in the world. This discovery also made him a little ecstatic. He knew that as long as he could absorb that energy, then It is not difficult for him to break through Dou Emperor.
In fact, Dou Qi Continent did not lack this kind of energy in the ancient times, which is why there were so many Dou Emperors. However, that energy was exhausted and could not be replenished, so the Dou Emperors became extinct. In this world, it seems that no one has successfully broken through to Dou Di, the so-called ancestral realm, so the energy here is still full.
However, when sensing the energy of heaven and earth, he also found some dark matter in the supposedly pure energy around him. It looked like it was contaminated. This discovery made Xiao Yan feel slightly sad. Shen, if he guessed correctly, this should be caused by the alien demons transforming the world.
If this kind of contaminated energy is absorbed for a long time, the body will gradually be eroded by the substances in it, and finally... maybe it will be completely transformed into a strange demon!
However, this problem obviously does not exist for Xiao Yan. The characteristic of his Pure Lotus Demonic Fire is the power of purification, which can just purify this contaminated energy.
But when he covered Lin Jing's body with soul power, he found that there was already a lot of this substance in her body. She was not very strong. According to the division of this world, she was at the level of creation. If If she continues to suck it, I'm afraid it won't take long for her to be transformed into a strange demon.
Chapter 254: Qingtan
These polluted energies are obviously the method used by the alien demons to transform the world. According to Xiao Yan's speculation, if there is no external interference, it may not take long for the entire Tianxuan Continent to be completely transformed into Strange Demon Continent, this world will really be hopeless by then.
"Do you want to purify the energy in this girl's body?" Xiao Yan sensed the situation in Lin Jing's body and hesitated for a moment. The energy she absorbed during practice has also been contaminated, and those substances are now being It penetrated into her body along her meridians. If she continued to practice normally and broke through to the nirvana state, she was afraid that her body would really transform into a strange demon.
Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but gave up this plan. One more thing is worse than one less thing. He has nothing to do with this little girl, so why should he care about her life and death? As for her resemblance to the woman in white... He has been observing here for so many days but has not found any clues. The woman in white hidden in his body has not reacted at all. It seems to be just a coincidence.
"Are you the servant that Jing'er took in recently?" At this moment, a very clear voice suddenly sounded from behind Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan turned around and saw a girl in a dark black dress who didn't know what was going on. Suddenly, she appeared behind him. She seemed to be about the same age as Lin Jing, with a slender figure. Although her appearance was extremely beautiful, it was somewhat incompatible with the cold temperament on her body.
Perhaps because of her extremely beautiful appearance, or perhaps because he sensed some strange aura on her body, Xiao Yan's eyes stayed on her for a moment longer, and then he quickly recovered and asked: "Who are you?"
"My name is Qingtan." While Xiao Yan was looking at her, the girl named Qingtan was also looking at the young man in front of him. The young man's face was extremely delicate and delicate, and it seemed that no one would have any bad feelings at first glance. No wonder Lin Jing would choose to accept him as a servant. However, knowing people but not knowing their hearts, who knows if this young man might have any dirty thoughts in his heart?
"Hello, Miss Qingtan." Xiao Yan nodded, then withdrew his gaze and continued to look at Lin Jing who was still practicing in the field. However, when he heard the name, Xiao Yan also felt a little strange. Where have you heard this name before... maybe it's an illusion because it's a bit similar to Qinglin's name?
Seeing this, Qingtan was also stunned for a moment. This guy... doesn't he know his identity?
As the owner of Yangyuan Mine, her status can be said to be extremely noble in this area. Basically everyone living here knows what this name means, but Xiao Yan is an exception.
Xiao Yan has never seen Qingtan, so he doesn't know her specific appearance. He only knows that she is Lin Jing's aunt, so he subconsciously thinks that the appearance of the owner of the mine should be the mature type of Yafei, and Qingtan Judging from her appearance alone, she is about the same age as Lin Jing and has the appearance of a girl.
As for Qingtan's name, he had heard it once or twice, but at that time, he was thinking about running away, so he didn't take it to heart. When he heard the name just now, he just thought it was familiar, so he He didn't expect that the girl in black dress in front of him was the owner of the mine.
Qingtan looked at Xiao Yan. His face seemed calm, but some strange thoughts arose in his heart. The young man in front of him seemed to have a simple mind. Such people are rare in today's world. He just doesn't know. Whether it can bring happiness to Jing'er... still needs more time to examine.
Although she is Lin Jing's aunt, she has raised Lin Jing since she was a child, so the relationship between them is more like that of mother and daughter. Qingtan really takes care of Lin Jing as her own daughter. As Lin Jing grows up, As she gets older year by year, Qingtan also begins to worry about Lin Jing's future marriage, but the men in the mine are basically crooked, how can she like them?
At this moment, Xiao Yan appeared in front of her. This young man was pretty good-looking, and Lin Jing probably had a good impression of him, otherwise she wouldn't have made him a servant. She just didn't know what this young man's character was like... Moreover, for some reason, she always felt that there was something wrong with this young man, but she just couldn't detect what was wrong.
Qingtan was a little distressed. The way she looked at Xiao Yan at this moment was like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.
And Xiao Yan also noticed the two glances behind him, and a little cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
No, why is this little girl staring at me?
Could it be that she has a crush on him? Your charm is not that high to make others fall in love with you at first sight, right?
It's no wonder that Xiao Yan has some misconceptions. After all, although he has dealt with many people in his past life, he has never dealt with his mother-in-law. The role of mother-in-law does not exist in his interpersonal network... Why? Because there are not many people with mothers in Douqi Continent...
Qingtan stared at Xiao Yan for a long time, but didn't notice anything was wrong. She seemed to realize that it was not good to look at a junior like this, so she turned around and left silently. After she left, Xiao Yan also relaxed. His tone, God knows what's wrong with this girl's head, to be able to stare at him for such a long time...
After Qingtan left, Lin Jing, who was practicing seriously next to her, quickly came over and asked, "Xiao Yan, what were you talking about with my aunt just now? Why did she stay there for so long?"
"Nothing to talk about, just..." Xiao Yan was about to answer Lin Jing, but suddenly realized something and looked at Lin Jing with some surprise, "Aunt? You said that Qingtan girl just now is your aunt?"
"Yeah? Don't you know him?" Lin Jing said in surprise.
"I don't know. I have never met your aunt before. I thought she was your sister just now." Xiao Yan shook his head, then seemed to remember something, and asked calmly, "Is your aunt holding something like this?" Are there a lot of Xuanyuan Pills?"
"I heard my aunt mention it before. She must have hundreds of millions of Xuanyuan Pills, right?" Lin Jing replied subconsciously, and then looked at Xiao Yan strangely, "Why do you ask this?"
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, approached Lin Jing, and said with a smile: "Miss Lin Jing, do you know what I used to do?"
……
After Qingtan left Lin Jing's boudoir, she also planned to deal with other things. As the owner of this mine, she had a lot of things to manage, not to mention that she was not only responsible for this mine. That's all, but at this moment, she suddenly realized something was wrong with Xiao Yan.
I couldn't sense any breath on his body!
You know, whatever it is. There will be corresponding aura on the body. Even if it is a dead person, he should have death aura on him. But on Xiao Yan, she can't detect anything. There is only one possibility. The other party is stronger than her!
Chapter 255: Kidnapping
Why would a person with greater strength than her be willing to be Lin Jing's servant? What's his purpose? Is there any conspiracy in this? A series of questions echoed in Qingtan's heart. She quickly dropped everything she was doing and hurried to Lin Jing's room. As soon as she opened the door, she saw the scene she was most worried about happening.
She saw that the young man she thought looked very kind and suitable to be Lin Jing's husband was squeezing Lin Jing's neck. Xiao Yan seemed a little surprised when Qingtan pushed the door open and walked in. He turned his head and glanced at Qingtan. , smiled and said: "Miss Qingtan, you came just in time, I wanted to find you originally."
"Who are you? Why do you want to sneak in here?" Qingtan's pupils shrank slightly when she saw Lin Jing being subdued by the other party. However, she is also a strong person who rules the party, so her mood is naturally not that of a little girl. He gets panicked easily, but he quickly regains his composure.
She also knew that with Xiao Yan's strength, if he really wanted to kill Lin Jing, it would only be a matter of a snap of his fingers. Now, although Lin Jing was strangled by the neck, there was no fear for her life. This also proved that the other party He has no intention of taking Lin Jing's life, at least not yet.
"Well... I'm just a passing Fighting Saint. As for why I sneaked in here, it wasn't me who wanted to sneak in here, but you guys brought me back." Xiao Yan looked at Lin Jing in his hands and said with a smile. : "Miss Qingtan, you don't want anything to happen to your precious niece, right?"
"What do you want?" Qingtan's eyes flashed slightly and she said.
"Don't worry, I am a very professional person. As long as you give me one billion Xuanyuan Dan, I will put your precious niece back." Xiao Yan said with a smile. He had heard Lin Jing mention this before. There is a special kind of vitality in Zhong Xuanyuan Dan, which is of great help in the treatment of injuries.
Although Xiao Yan has a strange fire like the Flame of Life in his body, the injuries in his body are so serious that even with the help of elixirs, he has not fully recovered, so Xiao Yan targets the so-called Mysterious Fire. On top of Yuan Dan, as long as there is a sufficient amount of Xuanyuan Dan, his recovery speed will definitely be faster.
As for the one billion pills mentioned, that was just a sign of the lion's mouth. However, Xiao Yan did not expect Qingtan to come up with a billion Xuanyuan Pills. He just wanted to create an momentum for himself first, but he did not expect that Yes, Qingtan actually nodded seriously and said, "Okay, I can give you one billion Xuanyuan Pills, but I don't have that much on hand right now, so you have to wait for me for a while."
"..." No, can you really produce a billion Xuanyuan Pills?
Xiao Yan suddenly felt that his asking price was a bit low. This guy was definitely a rich woman! But he couldn't change his mind now, so he could only continue to pinch Lin Jing and said: "Okay, after you gather one billion Xuanyuan Pills, I will return your precious niece to you. After a month, I will I’ll bring this guy to you.”
"Take care of her! If she is injured at all, I will kill you!" Seeing Xiao Yan about to withdraw, Qingtan also subconsciously wanted to stop him, but thinking that Lin Jing's life was still in his hands With her hand, she could only hold back her own impulse, and gritted her teeth and threw down a warning.
