Chapter 36

Tianguang County was founded with iron ore.After so many years of development.The original iron ore in the county has been exhausted, and now the mines have been moved to places next to the county.

Fifty miles away from the county seat is Huaxi Mountain.Chu Zheng was riding on a horse, heading towards Huaxi Mountain.

Recently, iron-eating beasts have appeared in Huaxi Mountain, and the Iron Claw Hall has released a new mission - to kill the iron-eating beasts.

This iron-eating beast feeds on iron ore, and the mining of iron ore by human beings cuts off their food.

And the imported iron-eating beast blood is an important refining material for iron-making potions, hmm~~~
Iron eaters just want iron ore, but humans want both iron ore and iron eaters!

After accepting the task, Chu Zheng set off to the mine.Although this task is very important, not many people accept it.Because the people of Yingmen are good at fast swords, in fact, they are not very lethal to the iron-eating beast whose body is as hard as iron and has infinite strength!

Riding on the horse, it took Chu Zheng only half an hour to reach the mine.

It was now afternoon, and the mine workers were nervously pouring the ore into the water pit, and then adding the iron-making potion.After doing this, they have to go home before it gets dark, otherwise the road at night will be unsafe.

The road from the mine to the county seat is often swept by Yingmen men, and there is no danger during the day.But no one can guarantee safety at night.

"Mr. Chu Zheng, except for you warriors, everyone in this mine has returned to the county seat at night. You can do whatever you want." The manager of the mine is just an ordinary person, and he just explained Chu Zheng's arrival, and then It's time to get off work.

Overtime work is not allowed here, it will kill you.

In just a quarter of an hour, the workers walked out of the mine one after another and set foot on their way home in groups.It didn't take long for the gate of the mine to be locked symbolically, and then the mine returned to calm.

Chu Zheng walked around the mine.

The iron mine in Tianguang County is an open-pit mine. The workers only need to throw away the upper layer of soil, then dig up the iron ore, and transport the iron ore to the water pit with a small cart. Work hard.

After waiting one night, the workers went to work to salvage the pig iron and stones in the pool.Under the action of the medicine, the pig iron block will form large crystals, and the stone will be expelled.It is still very convenient to filter.

Then these irregular iron pieces will be transported into the county town for various processing.

The sky gradually dimmed, and Chu Zheng also noticed that many people began to haunt the mine.

These people are warriors of the mine.They are hunters of the night!
"Brother, you're new to me! But you're new here?"

Chu Zheng immediately met three warriors.Then the three warriors greeted him.

"Yes, I just arrived today. Are they brothers from Yingmen, or warriors from outside?" Chu Zheng asked kindly.

As mentioned earlier, the people from Yingmen are not good at dealing with iron-eating beasts, so the mine hired many warriors themselves.So Chu Zheng asked this question.

"We are all foreigners! My little brother is a disciple of Yingmen? My name is Wei Zhusan, and this is Li Mingdao and Mao Mingxia. They are all here to make a living together." The person named Wei Zhusan introduced the three of them enthusiastically.

"My name is Chu Zheng, from Yingmen." Chu Zheng also replied.

"It seems that Brother Chu is a novice, I'm afraid he will suffer a loss!" Wei Zhusan said with a smile.

"Brother Wei, why did you say that?" Chu Zheng asked curiously.

"Iron-eating beasts' entire bodies are as hard as iron. Due to their long-term consumption of iron ore, their skin has 9 layers of iron. I'm afraid your long sword can't pierce this skin. Of course, if you are a top-notch warrior, don't think I have I said it!" Li Mingdao who was next to him replied.The rest of Mao Mingxia smiled and nodded.

Chu Zheng smiled wryly.Said: "I just came here in a hurry after receiving the task, and I didn't think so much!" He looked carefully, and found that the three people in front did not use swords, but each carried a claw hammer.

"Besides, your clothes are wrong! This iron-eating beast is so powerful that it will hurt you if you rub it, and you will die if you touch it. You have to wear fur like us! This fur has defensive ability and is best for absorbing shock!" Wei Zhusan also said.

"Ah! There is such a saying!" Chu Zheng was also dumbfounded.

"When you go out to hunt monsters, the most important thing is not force, but the understanding of monsters! Brother, you can't do it tonight. You just stay in this mine for a night, and go to the county town tomorrow to bring your equipment and come back!" Wei Zhusan It's still polite to say.

"Then thank you three for your guidance!" Chu Zheng also thanked.

The three smiled and waved their hands.Then he left Chu Zheng's side.

These are good people!Looking at the backs of the three of them, Chu Zheng thought to himself that there are still many good people.How could there be so many intrigues and accidental killings in this world!
But is this evening wasted?Chu Zheng frowned and thought.

The Qiushui Sword is an ordinary standard long sword, suitable for stabbing.Dealing with objects as hard as iron is indeed not as powerful as weapons such as claw hammers.

Suddenly, Chu Zheng thought of something!He hurriedly walked to the warehouse of the mine, and then chose a crowbar in the warehouse!
This is the crowbar that miners use to pry open big rocks!
It is 1.5 meters long, weighs about ten kilograms, and presents a hexagonal prism shape.One end is pointed and the other end is flat.The most indispensable thing in the mine is this kind of crowbar. Chu Zheng tried it. This crowbar is very hard and has anti-slip patterns on it.Although I don't know how it compares with the famous rebar crowbar, in Chu Zheng's opinion, it is quite suitable!

The crowbar also has a name, and Chu Zheng, as a seasoned game fan, of course knows it—the holy sword of physics!

And to match the skill of this weapon, Chu Zheng really has one - the Wudang sword technique!
Wudang swordsmanship is an epee swordsmanship, good at chopping and pressing.Although the crowbar is not particularly suitable, but now there is no better choice, isn't it?

Arm yourself.Chu Zheng began to patrol the mine.

The mine is very large, and the sky has completely dimmed at this time.Fortunately, with the support of the moonlight, otherwise Chu Zheng would have been unable to move even without a torch!

He thought the mine would give him these things!But in fact, these are all to bring!
The task at the beginning was very difficult, which annoyed Chu Zheng, a novice.

Not long after walking, under the bright moonlight, Chu Zheng finally discovered the first prey of the night.

An animal the size of a wild dog is eating ore!

This animal looks a bit like a wild boar, and it also has two exposed teeth around its mouth.I saw that the monster pushed its teeth on the ground, and a piece of ore was raised, and then it opened its big mouth, and bit it down!

The hard ore seemed to be a biscuit at this time, it was chewed to pieces by the monster, and swallowed in three mouthfuls.While eating, the monster kept looking around.Obviously not a little wary!

This is an unqualified iron-eating beast, just suitable for Chu Zheng to practice!

Chu Zheng didn't hesitate either, and brought the 'Holy Sword of Physics'.Just touched it from behind!
