Chapter 6 Bones and Rings in the Cave

jingle--

The rhythmic knocking sound echoed in the deep mine, and the swaying firelight shone on a group of mining figures.

"Xiao Lin, did your ancestors specialize in mining?" Lin Xiu, who was focused on mining, suddenly heard a voice full of surprise in his ears.

The middle-aged man and other people in the same dormitory stopped what they were doing at this moment, and their eyes were fixed on Lin Xiu.

"Uncle, why do you ask so suddenly?" Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment.

"Yesterday you couldn't even swing a pickaxe. In just one night, your movements are more skillful than those who have been mining for more than half a year." The middle-aged man has never seen anyone master mining so quickly.

"I don't know either. Anyway, just keep digging and you will get it naturally."

Lin Xiu dealt with it casually.

However, after the middle-aged man mentioned it, he found that some skills seemed to have really improved. Many labor-saving skills did not need to be used deliberately, but came naturally.

The middle-aged man talked about Lin Xiu to the people around him, saying that he was born to be a good mining material and had great talent. If he worked diligently in mining, he would be able to make a lot of money and marry a wife in less than ten years.

The other party listened with approval.

Lin Xiu also heard it and ignored it. It was impossible to mine all the time. It was just to gain experience and earn some attribute points.

After adding some strength to the body, not only the muscle soreness was resolved, but also the strength became stronger.

Compared with yesterday, Lin Xiu became more proficient in mining, his movements were smooth and rhythmic, and it looked pleasing to the eye.

[You mine, experience +5]

[Your ability mining is increased to lv4 and you get 1 attribute point]

I don’t know how much time passed, but words appeared in front of Lin Xiu’s eyes.

"Upgraded? It feels so fast. If you work hard, you may be able to level up to 5 today."

For the previous three abilities, basic Qi training can only gain experience once a day, no matter how many times you practice Qi.

The same goes for making horse food. When the horse doesn't eat it, there is no experience in making it.

Horse training is related to the horse's mood. Training too frequently will cause the horse to be irritable and resist training, and it will also fail to gain experience.

Mining is different from those. You can gain something by swinging a pickaxe. Although you have less experience, you can still get rewards every time.

Suddenly, Lin Xiu's gaze stopped.

I could only see the ground under my feet, and I don't know when there were wisps of white smoke. The smoke was so small that it was easy to miss it if I didn't look carefully.

He turned his head, his eyes moved accordingly, and his pupils shrank suddenly in the next second.

"Fog! White fog! What a big fog!"

Deep in the mine, white mist rolled in like waves.

The middle-aged man and others stopped when they heard Lin Xiu's voice. When they saw the mist, everyone ran towards the cave entrance.

Lin Xiu was very fast. He had already started running when he heard the reminder.

Miners kept being left behind by him, but the white mist spread faster than Lin Xiu.

After rushing out for more than ten meters, thick fog occupied the sight, and the firelight was very weak in the fog.

Lin Xiu immediately pressed against the wall.

When the road cannot be seen, falling is just as dangerous as the danger in the fog. Other miners do not care whether they are walking on people or on the road in order to escape.

"What should I do?" Lin Xiu was a little confused when he encountered white mist for the first time.

It was completely white, and the vision was useless. Screams and wails echoed endlessly in the cave.

"What's the sound?" Lin Xiu walked out while touching the wall, and suddenly heard a rustling noise, as if something was rubbing against the ground.

Lin Xiu glanced several times but found nothing as his vision was blocked by white mist.     Suddenly, my feet felt itchy, as if something was wrapped around them.

Lin Xiu quickly raised his legs, and the next second a huge force came from his feet. By the time he reacted, he had fallen to the ground.

Countless brown vines shuttled across the ground, like snakes, very scary.

Those vines were rolling towards Lin Xiu, trying to wrap Lin Xiu completely. How could he agree to keep rolling and struggling.

Suddenly, there was a stinging sensation under my feet, as if something had pierced the skin.

Lin Xiu's heart tightened and he became even more worried. If this thing was poisonous, he would be doomed.

"Hey!" At this time, something unexpected happened to Lin Xiu. The vines actually started to let go of him.

Without the restraints, Lin Xiu quickly stood up from the ground, stretched out his hand, and his palm was covered with bright red blood.

"Afraid of my blood? How is it possible? I'm just an ordinary person, nothing special." Lin Xiu tried to apply blood on the vines, but the vines were not afraid, but ignored it.

The cave became quiet, the vines seemed to have a hypnotic effect, and the screams of many people gradually disappeared.

Lin Xiu walked a few steps along the wall and asked, "Why don't you go down and have a look?"

Looking back towards the depths of the mine, his heart beat rapidly.

If there was danger, he would not hesitate to escape, but the current situation is that for some reason, he was not attacked.

Thoughts are like seeds full of vitality. Once they fall to the ground, they sprout and grow rapidly and uncontrollably.

Picking up an unknown mining pick, Lin Xiu walked deeper into the mine.

As it went deeper, the surrounding temperature became even lower. Goosebumps appeared on the skin of Lin Xiu's hands and neck, and all the hairs stood on end.

"The fog has dissipated a little." Lin Xiu felt a little better when he found that he could see two to three meters away.

Improved vision means that dangers can be seen in advance and avoided.

Soon, Lin Xiu reached the end. There was a hole in one wall, which could probably be big enough for one person to pass through. Most of it was blocked by vines. If he wanted to get in, he could only crawl under it.

Outside the cave, several miners were lying, and a middle-aged man was also inside, but he was in a coma now.

A vine emerged from below, entangled a person's feet, and then dragged him inside.

"It's all here. If you don't look at it, you have to sit up in the middle of the night." Lin Xiu took a deep breath and got into the hole.

He thought the hole would be deep and the space would be small, but he didn't expect it to be just over one meter long.

There is a hollow area in the cave, which looks a bit like a secret room. There is a plant growing on the ground in the center, and the ground around it is full of red jade ginseng.

Those red jade ginseng seemed to transport nutrients to the plants, with roots connected to the plants. Those who were dragged in all fell into the air, and some had turned into mummies, as if their blood had been drained away.

Lin Xiu stood up, not daring to breathe out. This place was obviously the lair of a plant monster.

I was fine before, probably because I ate too much red jade ginseng and was ignored by it.

Lin Xiu glanced around and saw a withered skeleton sitting cross-legged in the corner. There was only a ring on the index finger of his left hand.

Without hesitation, he took the ring away and did it himself.

The withered bones fell to the ground with a crash. The plant was disturbed and rioted. Lin Xiu quickly fled outside.

Dragging the unconscious middle-aged man, the two quickly left the area.

Lin Xiu did not go out rashly. When the fog was about to disappear and the middle-aged man was about to wake up, he also pretended to have just woken up.

"Hey, I'm not dead." The middle-aged man touched his whole body and was a little surprised. He soon saw Lin Xiu next to him, "Xiao Lin, you're okay too. That's great. You must have benefited from me. Today Your chicken legs are mine."

Lin Xiu twitched the corner of his mouth, repaying kindness with hatred, right?
