The emperor's beauty, strong and miserable admiral, the female king

dark shabby basement

Bai Su and Mo Qia sat on the stone bench made of earth and stone.

Mo Cai originally wanted to get him a soft chair from the space twister, but Bai Su refused.

He has been to African indigenous areas several times in his previous life, and lived for a period of time, and he is not against this kind of environment. Moreover, although the underground stone house is simple, it is cleaned very cleanly, and the vents are also handled well, and the air is cool and cool. Yes, if you look up a little, you can see the ground outside.

Seeing that Bai Su and Mo Qia sat down naturally, Pu Zhen's father and mother were slightly relieved.

These two seemed to be well-dressed, out of tune with the shabby and downtrodden place here, and he was worried that they would dislike them just now.

Pu Zhen and his female father, Pu Ling, introduced Bai Su and Mo Cai, but they didn't say their real identities, only that they were his friends.

Pu Zhen's female father smiled at Bai Su Mo Qia, then turned around and went to the depths of the stone room to take out the air-dried food he had treasured for a long time, and sent it to Bai Su and Mo Qia

It's just that although these foods are already treasured by Pu Zhen's female father, they are very different from what Bai Su used to eat. If they are placed in the imperial capital, they are things that may not be in the trash can.

Pu Zhen looked at the smile on the female father's face, hesitated to speak, and looked at Bai Su nervously.

Bai Su didn't refuse, and after taking it, he smiled and thanked him.

Pu Zhen and her father relaxed a little more, smiled back at Bai Su, and sat down with Pu Zhen on the opposite side of the stone table

Holding the air-dried meatloaf in his hand, Bai Su raised his eyes to look at the ground outside through the vent

This planet full of potholes and corpses is his star field domain from now on

He wanted to learn more, try to strengthen the air defense of the border in the future, and reduce the scene of corpses strewn all over the field.

"Every time the star thief invades, will this happen here?"

Pu Zhen's father also looked at the ground outside and sighed slightly, "Yes."

Bai Su frowned slightly, "With so many casualties, the Starfield Lord didn't send more troops?"

Pu Zhen's female father paused slightly and shook his head.

Bai Su looked back, "The Lord of the Star Domain doesn't care?"

Pu Zhen's female father paused again, and finally pursed his lips and said, "It's not that I don't care, it's just...the casualties of the army are actually not heavy."

Bai Su raised his eyebrows, "Then whose corpses are filling the pit outside?"

Pu Zhen's father paused again, then lowered his body and said, "It belongs to refugees."

"Refugees?" Bai Su frowned, and Mo Cai beside him also frowned.

As an imperial soldier, the last thing Mo Jia wanted to see was the death of the people of his own empire under the invasion of other countries.

If the corpses in the deep pit outside were all sacrificed soldiers, he could still understand, but those were all refugees?

Even if they are not considered official citizens of the empire, the piles of dead can only show the military defense here...too bad.

Mo Xie couldn't help but asked, "Don't the army ignore you? The army didn't suffer heavy casualties, but these refugees died in piles?"

Pu Zhen's female father lowered his face, and Pu Zhen said on his behalf, "Here...in fact, it has always been like this."

Mo Cai was almost shocked. As a high-ranking official of the Imperial Army, he used to follow Sheng Shen to fight everywhere. It was really rare to see a place where more people died than the army!

"Is it still like this all the time?"

Pu Zhen, "...Because the refugees do not have the status of an empire, the private army here does not regard them as objects that need to be protected."

Mo Xia laughed loudly, with strong sarcasm, "Whether they are refugees or not, their death on this planet is the failure of this army."

Pu Zhen's female father sighed, lowering his face to cover his expression, "This place is too close to the triangle area, the rampant star robbers and various exile forces outside are too strong, sometimes the private army can't resist."

Bai Su sat on the same spot, listening to Mo Qia, Pu Zhen and Pu Ling thoughtfully, continuing to talk about the situation of this planet.

noon

Bai Su ate the air-dried meat pie given by Pu Zhen's female father, leaving Pu Zhen to accompany Pu Ling in the earth-stone house, and took Mo out of the earth-stone house, ready to visit the nearby 'garbage mountain'.

But until the sun was about to set, 666 did not scan the black crystal that Bai Su was looking for in the 'garbage mountain'.

The black crystals that Mochiko and Ji Ke accidentally discovered in the imperial capital were all transferred to the empire from this pier.

Such a huge amount of black crystals, but now there is no trace of it here?

Bai Su turned around for a while, seeing that the sky was almost dark, he led Mo Qia back.

On the way, Mo Jian approached him two minutes, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Your Highness, we are being targeted, and we are refugees from the surrounding area. Do we need to deal with it?"

Bai Su also faintly noticed all kinds of gazes from around him, and shook his head, "Don't worry about it, let's see what they want to do first, maybe it's just curiosity."

........

When Bai Su and Mo Qia returned to the earth-stone house, Pu Zhen and Pu Ling had already adjusted their emotions.

Bai Su watched Pu Ling go to the depths of the earth-stone house and brought out a lot of food for them, thought for a while, and asked directly

"Excuse me, where is the trading pier for black crystals on this planet?

Hearing Bai Su mention the black spar, Pu Zhen knew that Bai Su was going to ask something serious, so he took out his work notebook and looked at the female

But when Bai Su uttered the word 'black crystal', Pu Ling frowned, even if Pu Zhen was watching, he hesitated to speak.

This demeanor, it is obvious that black crystals are also very special on this planet, so Pu Ling dare not say it.

Seeing this, Pu Zhen looked at Bai Su, hesitant

Bai Su understood what he meant and nodded.

Pu Zhen leaned close to the female father's ear, and whispered to him the identities of Bai Su and Mo Cai

Pu Ling's eyes widened in an instant, she was shocked for a long time, and then she was about to stand up and salute with a slightly panicked expression.

Bai Su held his arm to prevent him from kneeling, and said with a smile, "Uncle, you don't need to salute, I'm a private visit now, just to investigate the black spar, so if you know, please provide some information."

Knowing the identities of Bai Su and the others, although Pu Ling still hadn't recovered, she didn't hide any more

"Black spar... In fact, I have rarely seen it on this planet these years, but we refugees have lived here all our lives, and we know some of the secrets of this planet. Here... there has always been a huge The trading of black crystals began about ten years ago. Many hollowed out mines were filled with black crystals, which were transported to various places in the empire through special channels. "

Sure enough, Bai Su looked at Pu Ling and asked again, "Then do you know where these black crystals were transported to in the empire?"

Pu Ling shook his head, "Those caves and mines filled with black crystals are guarded by special garrisons. Since ten years ago, refugees have been prohibited from approaching. Five years ago, one of our refugees was related to me. Not a bad boy, because he picked up two bottles of wine from the 'Huoshan', drank too much and strayed into the mine, he was... beaten to death, so in these years, almost no one dared to explore those black crystals news."

Bai Su lowered his eyes and twirled his fingertips, and was about to ask again, but Pu Ling suddenly thought of something.

"However, I remember that child told me before he was taken away that those black crystals were printed with their own logos. I don't know what those logos are, but maybe they can provide information for the delivery address you want to check, Your Highness. clue."

Bai Su raised his eyes, "Then those mines where the black crystals are hidden, does uncle know where they are?"

Pu Ling nodded, "I know."

..............

Before the mine

Mo Zai dealt with the defenders who had just been stunned, and followed Bai Su and Pu Ling into the dark mine.

The mine is very large, but the further you go in, the brighter the light becomes.

There are still many defenders inside, but these defenders are all standing or sitting, and they don't seem to be worried at all that someone will break in here, and they all lie down and fall asleep talking and laughing.

Mo Chia took out a drugged weapon from the space twister, gave Bai Su and the others the antidote, and threw the drugged bullet into it.

After a while, all the garrison inside fell into a coma.

The deepest part of the mine is a huge and deep cave

Inside the cave, densely packed with a beautiful silver-white ore, the appearance looks different from black spar.

But Pu Zhen's father and mother walked to the front of the silver-white ore with unchanged expressions, raised their hands and wiped the ore, and the silver-white layer on the surface of the ore was wiped off, revealing the dark underground.

It is black crystal.

Bai Su walked over, and Pu Zhen's father was looking for something in front of the baskets of black crystal stones. After a while, he pointed to the place under the black crystal stone railing and said to Bai Su

"Your Highness, this should be the mark that the child said, take a look."

Bai Su walked over, took a look, and found that it really could represent an address.

And it is very high-end, these imprints are the official seals of each place, as well as the family seals of the major nobles.

Looking at these dense and different imprints, Bai Su frowned, feeling that this matter might be much more complicated than he imagined.

Judging from this imprint, not only Mochiko and Jike, but even various places in the empire have been sent a lot of black crystals.

In addition to these different imprints, these black crystals are also stamped with the seal of the domain master of the Qiling Starfield, which is used for transit at the pier.

Bai Su frowned, so many black crystals were transported to various places in the empire, but on the surface they couldn't be found at all...

Bai Su walked up to the black spar, reached out and touched it.

In an instant, a sharp pain like an electric shock pierced his hand.

Bai Su paused for a moment, this feeling was the same as when he rescued Sheng Chen in the dungeon of Sheng's house, when he touched the chain made of bitter edge stone.

Bai Su lowered his eyes and looked at his slightly red fingertips, "Black spar, also has the function of insulating the spiritual body?"

Puzhen Puling and Mo Qia were still looking at the huge stock of black crystals, and did not notice Bai Su's movements

Pu Zhen explained, "Because of its special texture, black crystals can be used as bitter edge stones in large quantities to insulate 'spiritual power'."

Because the bitter edge stone has an absolutely repulsive effect on spiritual power, it is strictly controlled in the empire.

In addition to being used in criminal justice divisions to control those criminals with violent mental power, the blocking effect of bitter edge stone is also absolutely forbidden for many weapons and machines in the empire that require mental power to operate. Just sprinkle a little bit of bitter edge stone Going in is equivalent to spilling water into the high-voltage circuit, and the consequences are disastrous.

Mental power insulation?A very bad premonition suddenly rose in Bai Su's heart.

He raised his eyes and looked at Pu Zhen, "Scan and record these imprints and send them to Qin Li. Ask him to check whether there are many black crystals hidden in these places."

Pu Zhen complied, and took out the device to quickly scan the imprints on these black crystals.

After he finished scanning, Bai Su also turned on the optical brain and sent the imprint information to Sheng Chen, asking Sheng Chen to find time to look at the places represented by these imprints, but he only asked Sheng Shen to check secretly, and handed over to Qin Li the obvious ones. That's fine.

This mine is not very deep, this is the innermost place.

After recording all the black crystals here, Bai Su took a few people back and prepared to go to other mines to see how many black crystals were secretly sent to various parts of the empire.

But as soon as they reached the entrance of the mine, the two defenders who had just been knocked unconscious outside were already standing awake at the entrance of the mine and watching them.

And behind them, the army leader who agreed to go with them in the morning was standing there with a cigarette in his mouth, squinting his eyes and looking at them in a fierce manner.

"Heh, you guys are really bold. Not only did you dare to come to this planet privately, you even dared to break into the mine."
