My magic weapons are all rule-based

"Some people in this mining area should have heard of my name, but most people don't know me." Xu Shan spoke unhurriedly.

"To be honest, I, Sun Xiaochuan, have been mining in their Huanhai Sect for ten years, eight months and nine days. I used to work in the No. 7 mining area, but later I applied to move here."

The people below listened quietly, and there were no less than thirty people who knew Sun Xiaochuan's name.

However, when facing this new face, everyone was a little curious about where it came from at first, but today they finally understood.

It turned out that they were transferred from other mining areas.

Xu Shandao: "In terms of seniority, I am already considered an old man in the Dianxing Mine. The income inequality that occurs in our mining area also occurs in other mining areas, but I did not expect it to be particularly serious here."

"Why is it that when everyone does the same job and reaps according to their work, some people get a lower ratio of spiritual stones, while others get a higher ratio? I discovered this seven years ago, and I was not angry at the time, so I went to find it. Huanhaijiao Discussion."

"However, the Huanhai Sect is so powerful. I, Sun Xiaochuan, come from a humble background and have a low level. I am just a penniless casual cultivator, and I was sent away with just a few words. Of course, I have nothing to say."

"I was told clearly that the number of ores I entered into the mine in exchange for the number of spiritual stones was all determined. Why did you just refuse to accept it and come here to ask for a raise? If everyone did what you did, what would Huanhai Sect become? "

"In a word, if you like to do it, do it. If you don't want to do it, get out! If we don't do it, there will be others who will do it."

Many people frowned slightly.

In terms of status, almost all of them here are casual cultivators with low cultivation and poor conditions.

There are some things that everyone can relate to.

At this point, Xu Shan paused, lowered his head and sniffed, sighed, "Yeah, what can I say? What they said makes sense."

"After that, I worked diligently and continued to mine here honestly. Over the years, I also know that there are many newcomers who have made more than me, an old man. But when we encounter such a thing, we have no reason to say anything. , I can only concentrate on my own work, hoping that one day I will improve my strength and save some spiritual stones to go out to work. "

"But just a month ago..." Xu Shan breathed unsteadily and looked up at the top of the stone wall, "An old friend of mine died in the mine. We have known each other for twenty years. He was severely injured by a monster outside and suffered many injuries. I just want to come to this mine and sell my strength to steadily accumulate spiritual stones, so I can go out and find someone to heal my injuries.”

"Unexpectedly...he suffered from severe illness again, suffered from overwork, and passed away..." Xu Shan pursed his lips hard, his voice trembling slightly, "My old friend, until his death, felt that he didn't work hard enough. There is no decent magic weapon."

"After he died of exhaustion, he gave me all his belongings and more than eighty low-grade spiritual stones. I didn't want to stay in that sad place, so I applied for a transfer and came here."

"Brother! My condolences!" Lu Xiangjun covered his face and sobbed softly, secretly activating the spirit stone in his sleeves.

Two or three 'small speakers' hidden everywhere started to operate, and a low cry came out.

The expressions of the people around him were somewhat sympathetic.

What a sincere brotherhood this is, and what a pitiful situation this is...am I not among them?

Everyone wants to change to a decent magic weapon, but how long do they have to work in the dark mine to accumulate enough resources?

So sad!

Xu Shan's deep voice continued: "It's been a month now, and I can't forget that my brother held my hand before he died and kept asking me, why...why..."

"We have clearly embarked on a path of cultivation that countless mortals look up to, but we still live a life that is worse than mortals. Why do we work so hard but don't get the rewards we deserve?"

"Yeah...why?" Xu Shan laughed at himself, "I also want to know the answer, otherwise why not just be a mortal? What's the point of this practice? Are we born to endure hardship?"

"This problem has been bothering me day and night since January. Many people in this mine have inexplicably talked about their income. Obviously everyone is doing the same job, but some people do earn more, and some people earn more. Well... I finally figured it out a few days ago.”

The bright eyes below stared at Xu Shan, waiting for the answer.

Xu Shan raised his head and stared at everyone with righteous eyes: "It's exploitation! Someone is exploiting us by standing on top of us!"

Exploitation?

The crowd below immediately looked confused.

This word is a completely negative word, and it is too harsh. After all, everyone depends on other people's mines to make a living.

The word exploitation is appropriate only for slaves whose freedom is restricted.

How can we call it exploitation when our personal freedom is not restricted and we can stay and leave as we please?

Xu Shan began to pace and began to explain slowly and slowly: "I think everyone must have doubts, please listen to me slowly."

"Dianxing Mine is facing a large number of casual cultivators recruiting workers to operate the mine. Since this matter is not open to the outside world, Huanhai Sect should clearly explain the standards to show fairness, so as not to damage the face of the great sect."

"But today, income inequality has occurred. There are only two possibilities for this happening."

"First!" Xu Shan raised a finger, "This matter is the intention of Professor Huanhai. He depends on others to order the dishes. In order to recruit more monks to help them mine, but it is difficult to write down the rules clearly, try to Reduce your own expenses. Those of us who are thin-skinned and honest will suffer big losses if we don’t dare to talk.”

"Second!" Xu Shan raised another finger, "No matter how big a sect is, it can't guarantee that all its disciples are honest and selfless. Some of them are in the mines, doing whatever they want to do, and they are greedy and have no calculation! Maybe we should all be ten yuan Yun in the first place. I exchanged the empty stone for two spiritual stones, but only received half of them.”

"In other words, some people from the Huanhai Sect are stealing our income. The people above have good intentions, but the execution below is bad. After all, it is the Huanhai Sect that gave us the opportunity to earn spiritual stones. With this share The kindness is there, so we can’t think too badly of the superiors.”

"What do you mean you can't think too bad of them! They've all benefited from it, and it's us who will suffer the loss!" Lu Xiangjun shouted from below, and the jade slip in his hand became excited again.

Scattered sounds came from the darkness.

"Yes!" "Yes!" "That makes sense!"

Someone took the lead to speak, and the others quickly shouted: "No matter if it's corruption or what, after all, we didn't get the spiritual stone we deserved!"

"We get paid for our work, and we don't owe Huanhai Sect anything! How can we show any kindness?"

"Those who have committed corruption are also disciples of the Huanhai Cult. The blame must still be placed on the Huanhai Cult!"

"According to your statement, the second point is to excuse the Huanhai Sect!"

Xu Shanxu pressed his hands and kept nodding: "I know, I know... I can understand everyone's mood."

"So... I have never meant to excuse Huanhai Sect. The above two points are just to analyze the causes of the current situation, but they are far from being exploited. At most, we can call it deception."

"What I want to talk about next is the truly profound exploitation. How the Huanhai Cult uses us to break our bones and absorb our marrow to strengthen ourselves!"
