Chapter 4241

Wang Xi said: "there is a small town 300 miles ahead, called Taiping Town, which is the center of the whole Songzao plain. We go to xuantie iron mine to pass through there. We can inquire about the news there and see if something has happened again."

"You seem familiar with it?" Lu Chen asked.

Wang Xi smiled and said, "my little brother grew up in the pine jujube plain, otherwise elder Huang wouldn't have sent me."

"Oh. So that's easy." Lu Chen nodded his head.

In the afternoon, they entered Taiping town.

Taiping town is indeed very prosperous. At least in terms of population density, it is not bad compared with big cities such as Longshan city. Of course, the martial arts cultivation may be a little worse.

However, the whole pine jujube plain is very lively these days, and there are many experts coming and going. It is easy to see martial artists in the later stage of congenital territory and even experts in Dongxuan territory in the streets.

"Elder martial brother Lu, if you want to inquire about the news first, just go to the largest restaurant in the town. The restaurant is the most well-informed place. Ask the store clerk to know what's going on here." Wang Xi suggested.

Lu Chen nodded: "anyway, it's not urgent. First go to the restaurant and have a rest. You're probably tired."

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

Zishan building is really decorated with style, and it is also very lively inside.

The two went in and sat down at a table. A waiter from the shop greeted them. Lu Chen said, "man, send all the signature dishes in your shop."

The shop assistant smiled: "OK, sir, wait a minute."

In recent days, the business of Zishan restaurant has become particularly good, especially for dishes like Lu Chen, who doesn't ask the price. Restaurants are often the most expensive dishes in the world. Anyway, this kind of tycoons don't care about the price at all.

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

As the shop assistant was about to leave, Lu Chen said again, "man, I want to ask you something. What happened in the pine jujube plain recently? Why is it so busy?"

Shop assistant said with the a smile: "there are too many things happening. It's a long story."

Lu Chen smiled and took out more than a dozen top-grade crystal stones, put them on the table and said, "it's a long story, so talk slowly."

Crystal stone has always been hard currency, especially this kind of top-grade crystal stone. When the shop clerk saw so many crystal stones, his eyes were straight, Hurriedly said: "Recently, the biggest event should be the Tiankeng in Songzao plain. It is said that the disciples of Xingyun sect came here to practice and found a Tiankeng. Hey, hey, I didn't expect that there was a black iron ore hidden under the Tiankeng. We locals all know that there was such a large black iron ore hidden in the Tiankeng, but no one knew that it made Xingyun sect rich. However, jiuliumen saw such a large black iron ore and became a hero However, the two sides were jealous. It is said that Jiang tie of Xingyun sect was almost killed, and Jiuliu gate was retaliated by Xingyun sect. Several elite disciples died. It's really tragic. "

The shopkeeper explained happily.

Anyway, it's all someone else's business. For him, the fight between Xingyun sect and jiuliumen is a fight between immortals. He is 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. Did they all come to see the excitement?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Don't mention that there are many people here who come to see the excitement and want to pick up cheap ones. In recent days, it is said that the essence of black iron was found in the Tiankeng. Not only that, it is said that the black iron mine is spread over more than ten miles. How big is the mineral? One sect of Xingyun sect wants to occupy the whole black iron mine. That's too overbearing, not to mention jiuliumen. I heard that xuanjimen, Taiyuan sect, Dongao island and Tongtian sword sect They all sent people and wanted a share. "

"Spread over more than ten miles?" Lu Chen's face changed slightly.

He is also well-informed about his experiences in the past two generations, but he has never heard of minerals spread over more than ten miles.

"Yes, such a large mineral should be shared by the whole Songzao plain. Now the common people and sanxiu in Songzao plain don't think about it. There are disputes among the seven sects." Said the shopkeeper.

Lu Chen nodded.

If such a large iron ore is supplied to Xingyun sect for mining, I'm afraid it will be enough for five hundred years of refining materials. However, such a large mineral will not be swallowed by Xingyun sect alone. In the end, it must be decided again.

Wang Xi said with a smile: "even if several major sects jointly mine such a large mineral, it will take a long time to mine it. In the future, this town will be very prosperous."

"Who says not? Now some people advocate opening medicine shops and refining hall nearby. Business is booming." Said the shopkeeper.

After understanding the situation, Lu Chen is not in a hurry. Anyway, this matter can not be settled in a moment and a half. In the end, it may require the high-level of each sect or even the sect leader to negotiate. Lu Chen's status is not enough to make a decision on such a major event.

After the meal came up, Lu Chen and Wang Xi had a meal at ease. The dishes were filled with a table, which was very rich and tasted good.

Many rich and powerful guests in the restaurant are talking and laughing loudly and talking about their experiences these days. Lu Chen listens to these people while eating and has a further understanding of things.

"It's said that the essence of black iron is produced in the black iron mine. Is it true?" A rude voice asked.

Another person nearby said: "it's absolutely true. The essence of black iron is a treasure. Only a thousand kilograms of black iron can extract a kilogram of black iron essence. Xingyun sect mined a lot. However, it is said that the disciples of Xingyun sect were robbed, many of the essence of black iron were robbed, and the people and horses of Xingyun sect were also attacked and killed. I don't know how many people died?"

"What? When did this happen?"

"It was just a few days ago. Now the people of Xingyun sect are also very cautious. They arrange arrays near the mineral resources and don't leave easily. In addition, there are more and more experts from all major factions. There are not many people who want to make trouble, but there are many people who want to take the opportunity to make trouble and seek benefits."

"I heard that an important core disciple of Xingyun sect was attacked and almost died a few days ago. Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, it seems that this is nothing new. The core disciple is called Jiang tie. He is second only to Lu Chen and ranks second in the list of hidden dragons. It is said that his potential in the future may be higher than Shuixiu, the core disciple of Xuanji gate, but he was almost killed. I don't know where the sneaker is sacred."

"Jiang tie also caused some trouble in the Yongfu Dynasty. This man should be very powerful. He can almost be compared with Lu Chen in the younger generation. Even he was hurt. It seems that the water is really muddy."

"Hey, hey, it's none of our business. The bigger the trouble, the more lively it will be. I think the ownership of Xingyun Zong and jiuliumen wudingxuan iron mine will be determined by martial arts competition. It must be a contest between three generations of disciples. Jiang tie is still recovering. If you want to send someone to come, Lu Chen can't come. I want to see what the master who is the first in the list of hidden dragons is."

"I have also heard of Lu Chen. His origin is very strange and his origin is strange. It is said that he only achieved the cultivation of the realm the day after tomorrow at the age of 20, but he has become the core disciple of Xingyun sect in just three or four years. Even if he is a late bloomer, he will not rise so strangely. I have always wondered about his strength. Is it that the people of Xingyun sect deliberately hype and boast Lu Chen so much?"

"This is possible."

Everyone talked about it one after another. Regardless of praise or criticism, Lu Chen was at ease, and Wang Xi also seemed very calm. He seemed not to hear what others were talking about, and buried himself in eating.

At this time, Lu Chen suddenly felt something. Looking up, a tall old man came in. His momentum was vigorous and his strength had reached the triple level of Dongxuan territory.

In this place, a triple master of cave and xuanjing emerges, which will inevitably attract people's attention.

After the old man came in, a man in the seat next to Lu Chen changed color. He whispered, "this man is Tian Jiantian old devil. Be careful not to provoke him."

"Tian Laomo?" The other people's faces changed slightly when they heard the name.

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

Lu Chen has never heard of Tian Jian. The messenger asked Wang Xi, "Wang Xi, have you heard of this man?"

Wang Xi nodded: "he is a casual monk near the Songzao plain. He is very powerful and doesn't lose to the senior elders of big schools. However, he is not very good. He likes to rob and bully the weak. He claims to be desperate for money and doesn't kill people when stealing goods. Although he is hated by many people and has many enemies, he doesn't have any particularly powerful enemies. He doesn't do less bad things, but he doesn't kill many people, so he's not wanted by major schools."

"Oh? Such a casual cultivation that offends people everywhere can still live to this point. He is really lucky." 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 whispers. He swaggered in, and then came to a window seat not far from Lu Chen. He shouted, "waiter, this seat is good. Tell the three thieves to get out of the way immediately."

There are three people eating and drinking in that seat. Tian Jian will drive them away without asking about the situation. It can be seen that they are overbearing.

The shopkeeper ran over and said with an embarrassed face, "Sir, there are still seats upstairs. I'll take you upstairs."

Tian Jian immediately cocked up his beard, stared and said, "I like this seat. Didn't you hear me?"

The momentum was slightly released, and the shop assistant turned pale. He knew that these Jianghu people were experts. At least he wouldn't care about the life of one of his shop assistants. If he disobeyed, he wouldn't slap others and explain his life.

Trembling, he came to the window seat and said, "gentlemen, can you move a seat? Today's meal is free. What do you think?"

Originally, such problems are usually handled by the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper also has a headache when encountering such things. He puts the task back on the shopkeeper. If the shopkeeper can't solve the problem well, he can only pack up and leave.
