One Hundred and Eighty Eighth Chapter: Panic
Xiao Chen started to really thank Ye Wen now. If it wasn't for him, he might be among the fighters who met the corpse king, and he might have turned into a corpse at this time.
In the following days, nothing changed. Xiao Chen still patrolled during the day and practiced swords at night. It's just that two people have become three people, life is not as boring as usual, and there are a lot more conversations between three people.
Mu Xinya still went out every day for a long time, and would meet Supervisor Li every now and then, but Xiao Chen still couldn't understand what the two said, so she could only be vigilant in secret, there was no other way.
brush!
In a death path, Xiao Chen was in the air, before he drew his sword, there was a gust of wind in the air. After the Yueying knife was unsheathed, a faint light of the knife flashed across the blade in the breeze.
In the breeze, it was fleeting. After Xiao Chen landed, a joyful expression appeared on his face. The second stage of the breeze was finally practiced.
Qingfeng Slash has three stages. The first stage is to hide one's murderous intent and eliminate one's own murderous intent, so that people cannot quickly sense the timing of the move.
Qingfeng chop, Qingfeng chop, should there be the breeze first or the chop first, the breeze comes first and the knife follows, it must be the breeze first and then the chop. But if you don't use a knife and bring up the air in the air, how can there be a breeze.
Therefore, the second stage of Qingfeng Zhan is to practice until there is a breeze first and then the chop. After working hard for more than half a month, Xiao Chen finally completed this second stage.
It is time to attack the third stage of Qingfeng Slash, that is, the impact of the Dacheng Realm, but the breeze does not see the knife.
If you can practice in the breeze, completely hide the body of the blade, so that the enemy can't find the direction of the blade, the breeze cut will be completely accomplished.
"Finally, I have achieved it. It seems that my talent is not bad. I have practiced this Qingfeng Zhan to Zhongcheng in half a month. Before the end of the month, I may be able to practice it to a great success." Xiao Chen said happily.
After continuing to practice for a while, as usual, Xiao Chen started to walk towards the stone chamber until his vitality was exhausted.
"Master Ye Xiao!" A somewhat ethereal voice came over.
This voice was very familiar to Xiao Chen, usually when those miners and supervisors saw Xiao Chen, they would greet him like this, and when they turned around, it turned out to be a supervisor they usually met.
In the dark mine tunnel, Xiao Chen seemed to have guarded for a long time, stopped and asked, "Supervisor Zhao, how did you find me?"
Supervisor Zhao said weakly: "I wanted to find my little lord some time ago,
The miners under me found out that the young man often went out to practice knives at night, so I waited here. "
Xiao Chen nodded, it was no secret that he came out to practice at night, "What are you looking for, have you met a mummy?"
Supervisor Zhao’s face, which has not seen the sun for many years, was extremely pale after washing, and matched with his numb eyes, he looked a little sad, “No, there have been brothers who disappeared mysteriously recently. I didn’t pay attention at first, because I often It's normal for people to disappear."
"But after I inquired with the other supervisors, I found that some people disappeared there. They really disappeared. The brothers in the past could find the corpse even if they disappeared, but this time they couldn't even find the corpse."
Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Listening to Supervisor Zhao's words, it was obvious that the disappearance was premeditated. Someone was manipulating everything behind it. One or two disappeared from each supervisor.
The number does not seem large, but when combined, the number is a bit scary. There are a total of more than 20 supervisors in the mine, and each supervisor is accompanied by more than 100 miners.
One or two disappear every time, and the total number is probably hundreds of people. Who is it that made these miners disappear without a sound.
Xiao Chen withdrew his thoughts, and said to Supervisor Zhao: "I know about this situation, and I will talk to Elder Ye tomorrow."
Supervisor Zhao hesitated for a moment, with an expression on his face, as if he was struggling for something, and finally made up his mind: "Master Ye Xiao, we have a few brothers, and the five-year period will expire after the end of this month. If you want to go out early, you can get a little less money."
Xiao Chen showed embarrassment when he heard the words, and said: "There is no such precedent before, and this matter is not in my control, what I say doesn't work."
Overseer Zhao said anxiously: "Master Ye Xiao, you are a good person, we all know that, those nurses in the past didn't treat us miners as human beings, they laughed coldly and didn't say anything, and sometimes even beat people with their hands. For a long time, he never gave us a wink, everyone knows."
What Supervisor Zhao said, Xiao Chen heard from Ma Cheng that many of the former Tiandaoge disciples who took this task could not stand the boring life in the mine, and would vent their anger on the miners, which is a very common thing.
Xiao Chen smiled wryly, if he didn't do anything, he would be considered a good person, and good people in this world might be too cheap.
"Lord Ye Xiao, I kneel down for you. You must do me this favor. Those people will have their five-year term at the end of the month. If anything happens, it's not worth it!"
Seeing Xiao Chen groaning silently, Overseer Zhao plopped down and knelt down in front of Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen was startled, and quickly helped Supervisor Zhao up, saying: "I can tell you for Uncle Ye, can you do it?" Yes, I can't guarantee it."
Supervisor Zhao said gratefully: "It's fine if you can just say a few words. I would like to thank Mr. Ye Xiao first, and I will take my leave."
Looking at the back of supervisor Zhao leaving, Xiao Chen fell into deep thought. He had been watching Mu Xinya's affairs coldly, but now it seems that things are getting more and more wrong.
The next day, Xiao Chen began to secretly visit other supervisors and ask them about the situation. He was always cautious in doing things, and what Supervisor Zhao said was more serious.
Regardless of whether he lied or not, one-sided words can never understand the truth of the matter.
Within a day, more than 20 supervisors had finished their inquiries, and as Supervisor Zhao said, almost all of the supervisors had miners mysteriously disappearing.
There were five or six more, and one or two less. After thinking for a long time, Xiao Chen found Supervisor Li and his group of miners with Mu Xinya and Ma Cheng behind his back.
"Hey, Master Ye, why are you the only one, and where are the other two young masters?" As usual, Supervisor Li greeted Xiao Chen enthusiastically after seeing Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen nodded in agreement, and said, "Supervisor Li, have any of your miners mysteriously disappeared recently, and their whereabouts are unknown."
Supervisor Li recalled it carefully, and then replied: "I haven't heard of it, there is no one missing here, why, did something happen to my lord?"
The moment he spoke, Xiao Chen observed his expression carefully, but still found nothing, Xiao Chen said indifferently: "It's nothing, just ask casually, I'll go first."
Xiao Chen walked to a corner, stopped, his consciousness turned into a thin thread, and continued to observe, I don't believe you can hide it so well.
"Supervisor, what did the nurse ask just now?" Several miners ran over and asked.
Supervisor Li waved his hand and said, "Do your job, don't ask too many questions."
After observing for a long time, Supervisor Li was still digging seriously with a group of miners as usual, his expression did not change at all, and there was no abnormality at all because of Xiao Chen's problem.
Could it be that the person who reconciled with Mu Xinya in the past few days was not Supervisor Li? Xiao Chen retracted his consciousness and wondered in his heart, how could a normal person hide so deeply.
Xiao Chen withdrew his consciousness, shook his head, and couldn't figure out the problem.
After Xiao Chen's figure left, Supervisor Li threw away the mine manuscript in his hand, his eyes seemed to penetrate the wall, looking at Xiao Chen's leaving back, murderous intent was revealed in his eyes.
When they came to the headquarters on this floor, they happened to meet Ye Wen. Xiao Chen quickly stepped forward and told Ye Wen everything he had found out today, and finally explained the requirements that Supervisor Zhao mentioned.
After Ye Wen heard this, he said lightly, "Well, I see, you should go back first."
Seeing that Ye Wen didn't care at all, Xiao Chen said worriedly: "Uncle Ye, those people's five-year period is almost up anyway, so it's okay to reduce some of the remuneration and let those miners leave."
Ye Wen seemed to be very busy, and was about to leave. After hearing what Xiao Chen said, he stopped and said, "You only look at the problem from your own perspective. Fifty miners, it's okay to leave for a while, anyway, we're coming soon." It's time."
"But have you ever thought about it? There are more than 2,000 miners in the mine, and people's hearts are already unstable. If a large number of miners leave at this time, what will happen? Have you ever thought about it?"
If at this time, a large number of miners really leave, it will definitely cause a complete panic among other miners, and when it spreads, the matter may not be able to end.
Xiao Chen immediately thought of the scene after this, but the reason is like this, but Xiao Chen always felt something was wrong.
"Let's go, I know all these things you said, and I will deal with them in two days." Seeing Xiao Chen's silence, Ye Wen comforted him.
Xiao Chen thought for a while and said, "Uncle Ye, don't leave yet, I have something to report."
After thinking for a long time, although there was no evidence, Xiao Chen finally decided to tell Ye Wen about Mu Xinya and Supervisor Li's disagreement.
The expression on Ye Wen's face didn't change after hearing this, and he said, "We're all from the same school, so don't make small reports if you don't have any evidence."
Xiao Chen said unconvinced: "Uncle Ye, I..."
Ye Wen directly interrupted him and said: "You don't need to say anything, go back quickly, if there is no evidence in the future, I will not be polite if you make such a small report again."
That night, on the eighth floor of the mine tunnel, in a dead tunnel.
Supervisor Li said to Mu Xinya: "The kid who came down with you seems to have noticed something, and came to test me again today."
Mu Xinya was not surprised, "It's okay, he can't get any evidence, and he's not a meddler."
Supervisor Li was still a little worried and said: "Should I silence it? I'm not ready yet. If this kid spoils the big deal, I'll be in trouble."
Mu Xinya shook her head and said, "No need, just do it early tomorrow."
Supervisor Li's expression changed when he heard this, and he said in surprise, "Do it tomorrow? It's too hasty. The longer I refine that thing, the more powerful it will be. I should be more careful at the end of the month."
