Name:Alchemist Sword Sect Author:Gu Dong
Wang Xi said: "There is a small town three hundred miles away, called Taiping Town, which is the center of the entire Songzao Plain. We need to pass through there to go to the Xuantie Mine. We can ask for news there to see if there is another incident. What's the matter?"

"You seem to be familiar with this place?"

Lu Chen asked.

Wang Xi smiled and said, "My little brother grew up in Songzao Plain, otherwise Elder Huang wouldn't have sent me here."

"oh.

That would be easy. "

Lu Chen nodded.

In the afternoon, the two entered Taiping Town.

Taiping Town is indeed very prosperous. At least in terms of population density, it is not worse than big cities like Longshan City. Of course, the cultivation of warriors may be a bit worse.

However, the entire Songzao Plain is very lively these days, and there are many masters coming and going. It is easy to see warriors at the late stage of Xiantian Realm on the streets, and even masters of Dongxuan Realm.

"Senior Brother Lu, if you want to find out the news first, you can go to the biggest restaurant in the town. The restaurant is the place with the best news. Just ask the shop assistants and you will know what happened here."

Wang Xi suggested.

Lu Chen nodded: "Anyway, there is no rush, go to the restaurant to have a rest first, you must be tired too."

Under the leadership of Wang Xi, Lu Chen came to the big restaurant in the center of the town, Zishanlou.

The Zishan Building is indeed decorated very elegantly, and it is also very lively inside.

The two went in, chose a table at random and sat down, a store clerk came up to meet him, and Lu Chen said, "Man, bring up all the signature dishes in your store."

The store clerk smiled and said, "Okay, wait a moment, guest officer."

The business of Zishanlou has become very good these days, especially restaurants like Lu Chen who order dishes without asking the price. Restaurants often serve the most expensive dishes. Anyway, this type of big customers don't care about the price at all.

Indeed, for warriors, no matter how much they eat, they can't spend too much money, so Lu Chen naturally doesn't care about this.

Just as the store clerk was about to leave, Lu Chen said again: "Man, I want to ask you something, what happened in Songzao Plain recently, why is it so lively?"

The store clerk laughed and said, "There are too many things that happened, it's a long story."

Lu Chen smiled and took out a dozen top-grade crystals, put them on the table, and said, "It's a long story, so talk slowly."

Crystal stones have always been a hard currency, especially this top-grade crystal stone. The store clerk saw so many crystal stones, his eyes were straightened, and he said quickly: "Recently, the biggest event should be the tiankeng in Songzao Plain. Things, it is said that the disciples of Xingyunzong came here to practice and found a sinkhole. Hehe, I didn’t expect that there was a black iron mine hidden under the sinkhole. We locals know that sinkhole, but no one knows There is such a large black iron mine hidden in it, which made Xing Yunzong a fortune.

However, when Jiuliumen saw such a big black iron mine, of course they were jealous. The two sides competed. It is said that Jiang Tie of Xingyunzong was almost killed, and Jiuliumen was also revenged by Xingyunzong. Several elite disciples died. Tragic. "

The store clerk happily explained.

Anyway, it was someone else's business. For him, the battle between Xingyunzong and Jiuliumen was like a fight between gods and gods. He was only responsible for watching the excitement and collecting gossip.

Lu Chen said: "Even if Xingyunzong and Jiuliumen fought fiercely, they wouldn't attract so many people. Could it be that they all came here to watch the fun?"

The store clerk smiled and said: "Don't tell me, there are quite a few people here just to watch the excitement, and more to pick up cheap ones. Just in the past few days, it is said that the essence of black iron was found in the tiankeng, not only that. , I heard that this black iron mine is spread over a radius of more than ten miles. Do you think this mine is big?

It would be too domineering for a single sect of the Xingyun Sect to occupy the entire Xuantie Mine, not to mention the Nine Willows Sect. I heard that the Xuanji Sect, Taiyuan Sect, Dongao Island, and Tongtian Sword Sect have all sent people here. Want a piece of the action. "

"Spread over ten miles?"

Lu Chen's face changed slightly.

He is well-informed about the experience of the previous two lives, but he has never heard of the minerals that are spread over more than ten miles.

"That's right, such a large mineral resource should be shared by the entire Songzao Plain. Don't even think about the common people and casual cultivators in the Songzao Plain now. It's all disputes between the seven major sects here."

said the shop assistant.

Lu Chen nodded.

The black iron mine with a radius of more than ten miles, if such a large iron mine is supplied to a sect of the Nebula Sect to mine, I am afraid that even five hundred years of refining materials will be enough, but no one else will let the Nebula Sect monopolize such a large mineral , it will definitely have to be re-determined in the end.

Wang Xi said with a smile: "Such a large mineral, even if several major sects jointly exploit it, it will take a long time to mine. This town will definitely be very prosperous in the future."

"Who says it's not? Now some people are advocating opening a medicine shop and a crafts hall nearby, and the business is booming."

said the shop assistant.

After understanding the situation, Lu Chen was not in a hurry anymore. Anyway, this matter will definitely not be settled in a short while. In the end, it may require the senior leaders of various sects or even the suzerain to come forward to negotiate. make decisions on major issues.

After the food was served, Lu Chen and Wang Xi ate with peace of mind. The table was filled with dishes, which were very rich and tasted good.

Many wealthy customers in the restaurant were talking and laughing loudly, talking about the experiences of these days, Lu Chen listened to these people talking while eating, and gained a better understanding of the matter.

"I heard that black iron essence is produced in the black iron mine, is it true?"

asked a rough voice.

Another person next to him said: "It's absolutely true. The essence of black iron is a treasure. It takes a thousand catties of black iron to extract a catty of black iron essence. The Nebula Sect has mined a lot, but I heard that the disciples of the Nebula Sect were killed. People robbed, a lot of black iron essence was robbed, and the Xingyun sect's troops were also attacked and killed, how many people died?"

"What?

When did this happen? "

"It happened just a few days ago. Now the people of Nebula Sect are also very cautious. They set up formations near the mines and don't leave easily. In addition, there are more and more masters from all major sects. People who want to play tricks are not uncommon. There are too many, but there are quite a few people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble for profit."

"I heard that an important core disciple of the Nebula Sect was attacked by someone and almost died a few days ago. Is there such a thing?"

"Yeah, this seems to be nothing new. That core disciple is called Jiang Tie, who is second only to Lu Chen in the limelight and second on the Qianlong list. It is said that the future potential may be in the core disciple of Xuanji Sect, Shui Xiuzhi. on, but was almost killed, and I don’t know who the attacker is.”

"Jiang Tie also had a little trouble in the Yongfu Dynasty. This person should be very powerful. He can almost be compared with Lu Chen in the younger generation. Even he was injured. It seems that the water is really muddy this time."

"Hey, it's none of our business, the bigger the chaos, the more exciting it is to watch. Thinking about the Xingyunzong and Jiuliumen's competition for the ownership of the Dingxuan Iron Mine, I guess it will still be decided by martial arts in the future.

It must be another contest between three generations of disciples.

Jiang Tie is still recovering from his injuries. If he wants to send people over, it is impossible for Lu Chen not to come. I really want to see what kind of master this No. 1 character on the Qianlong list is. "

"I've heard about Lu Chen. His background is very strange, and his origin is strange. It is said that he only attained the acquired realm at the age of twenty, but in just three or four years, he has become the core disciple of the Nebula Sect. It’s a late bloomer, and it won’t rise so strangely, I have always doubted the strength of this person, is it because people from the Nebula Sect deliberately hyped Lu Chen so much?”

"This is possible."

There was a lot of discussion among the people, regardless of praise or criticism, Lu Chen remained calm, and Wang Xi also seemed very calm, as if he didn't hear other people's discussions at all, he kept his head buried in eating.

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly felt something. He looked up and saw a tall old man walking in. This man was powerful and powerful, and his strength had reached the third level of Dongxuan Realm.

In this place, a master of the third level of the Dongxuan Realm appeared, which inevitably attracted attention.

After the old man walked in, the color of the person next to Chase Lu changed, and he said in a low voice, "This person is Old Demon Tian Jiantian, everyone be careful, don't provoke him."

"Old Devil Tian?"

The faces of the other people changed slightly when they heard the name.

But although they looked very afraid, they didn't leave.

Lu Chen had never heard of Tian Jian, so he asked Wang Xi via voice transmission: "Wang Xi, have you heard of this person?"

Wang Xi nodded: "He is a casual cultivator near the Songzao Plain. He is very strong, and he is not inferior to the senior elders of the Martial Arts. However, he is not very good. He likes to rob and bully the weak. Goods don't kill people.

Although he was hated by many people and had many enemies, he did not have any particularly powerful enemies. He did many bad things, but he did not kill many people, so he was not wanted by the major factions. "

"oh?

Such a casual cultivator who offends people everywhere has survived until now, and his strength has reached this point. This person's luck is really good. "

Lu Chen smiled.

"That is, there are always all kinds of strange people in the world."

Wang Xi said solemnly.

Tian Jian didn't seem to hear other people's whispered comments, walked in swaggeringly, and then came to a seat by the window not far from Lu Chen, and said loudly: "Xiao Er, this seat is good, call these three thieves The bird gets out of the way immediately."

There were three people in that seat who were eating and drinking. Tian Jian wanted to drive these three people away without asking about the situation, which showed his arrogance.

The shop clerk ran over and said with a troubled face: "Guest officer, there are still vacant seats upstairs, so let me take you upstairs."

Tian Jian's beard immediately turned up, his eyes widened and he said: "I'm interested in this seat, didn't you hear?"

The momentum was slightly dissipated, and the shop clerk turned pale with shock. He knew that these Jianghu people were masters, at least he would not care about the life of a shop clerk like him. My life will be explained.

He came to the seat by the window tremblingly, and said, "Grandpas, can you move a seat, today's meal is free, what do you guys think?"

Originally, such problems are usually left to the shopkeeper to deal with, but the shopkeeper is also very troubled when encountering this kind of thing, so he pushes the task back to the shop assistant. If the shop assistant can't solve the problem, then he can only Pack up and leave.
