You can't stop taking the medicine, even a half-demon can turn into a dragon

Chapter 81 The second molt

PS: Anyone?

Ignore the ink poison.

Unlike Tian Shun who controls the first three mining teams, Hei Xuan controls the eighth, ninth, and tenth mining teams.

Of these three mining teams, Wolf Yao and Su Wu are still the mine stewards of the eighth and ninth mining teams. As for the tenth mining team, it is said that preparations are also under way, but the mine steward demon is still pending.

When the 10th Mining Team was mentioned, the wolf demon's eyes rolled slightly, his wolf paws were placed on Su Wu's shoulders, and he whispered: "Brother Xi, you have such a close relationship with Mr. History of the Mine Patrol, you said we are the 10th Mining Team."

Although the words are not clear, the meaning is self-evident.

Su Wu naturally knew what this guy was thinking. After pondering for a while, he still shook his head and said:

"This is inappropriate. As you know, I currently hold the position of the third manager of the Blood Iron Mine. Although I don't have to be responsible for the mining team at the Earth Temple, I still have a way to operate it."

"Coupled with the eighth and ninth mining teams here, the combined benefits of the two are already huge. If the tenth mining team is also in the hands of you and my brothers, this may not be a good thing."

"After all, as humans say, too much is never enough!"

Su Wu's words actually have two meanings.

On the surface, it is true that he said it is not enough, but secretly, the meaning behind the words is a promise of benefits. Whether it's the Earth Temple or the Eighth or Ninth Mining Team, wherever there is interest, the wolf demon will be brought along.

The current situation in the blood iron mining area is complicated, and cliques are very obvious. This is the case with the Sky Centipede Demon, and even more so with the four mining teams in charge of the Earth Temple.

The interests involved in it, including the Qingyun Sect, the Immortal Cultivation Family in Luo City, and the Earth Temple itself, can be described as intricate.

As the mine steward demon recommended by the Earth Temple, Su Wu had countless eyes staring at him even though he was a puppet in name only.

Not to mention, this also involves the Son of Earth God and the cat demon Hei Xuan.

So you can be greedy, but you can't be too greedy. You can secretly seek benefits, but you also need to have accomplices to resist the pressure.

At the moment, the one who can be the best ally is the Wolf Demon Carnival. The two seem to be at odds with each other, but with the initial cooperation as a basis and bound by interests, it is still possible to work in unison.

Naturally, the wolf demon also heard the implication of Su Wu's words. He smiled and said: "This is a good relationship. You will mediate it in the future. We will work together. This one-third of an acre of blood iron mine is not ours?"

"It's such a pity for the 10th Mining Team!"

Su Wu shook his head, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "You can't rush the affairs of the 10th Mining Team. Let's take it one step at a time. The most important thing is to get the 8th and 9th Mining Team together as soon as possible."

"Now one step faster will lead to a three-pointer."

"And don't forget, what do the big guys really care about! We have already had a successful experience, how difficult is it to replicate it again?"

Time passed, one month later.

It is now the spring of the thirty-fourth year of Emperor Jing, the third day of the third month of the human calendar.

The earth is revived and the grass is green.

The heavy snowfall last year caused heavy casualties to ordinary people and low-level monsters, but it was a great benefit to plants.

The heavier the winter snow, the more abundant the vegetation will be in the coming year.

As all the winter snow melts, the mighty Luo River rises, and the water level of the Di River is also increasing day by day. Now it has submerged less than half of the Di River Basin.

What happened in the river basin in the past, the traces caused, etc., have all been buried under the water.

Everything is erased, as if it never happened.

The humans in Luo City began to become busy. In the underground world, Xuetiefang City is also blooming, even better than before.

All kinds of monsters are bustling.

Those who sell meat and those who sell meat, those who sell medicinal materials and those who receive medicinal materials, all kinds of transactions are countless.

You can see that demon traders come in and out of this place from time to time, and you can even see one or two daring human traffickers occasionally.

In order to facilitate the transportation of blood iron ore and underground special materials, a passage to the ground was jointly excavated by several major forces and opened in the sewage area some time ago.

At the end of the passage is the bridgehead of Luocheng's underground demon clan in the Qingyun Mountains, located near Zhoucun.

At the same time, a neutral trading area that is many times larger than Xuetiefang City, where human beings and monsters can trade with each other, will soon be settled here. I heard that you can buy everything in this trading area. From minerals and medicinal materials to cocoon magic, as long as you have enough money, you will always find something.

Nowadays, in the underground world, the value of human money is rising. Not only can this thing be exchanged for various rare materials from humans, it also has certain mysterious effects such as exorcism, detoxification, and healing.

Some special medicinal materials also need to be cultivated with silver.

Anyway, it’s extremely precious.

Regarding this, some demon tribes were reluctant to use silver at first. They always felt that bartering was not comfortable, and they also had a natural repulsion towards silver.

But after all, the demon alone is weak and cannot compete with the general trend, so he can only accept the situation.

Su Wu was sure that the price of silver would rise a lot, and he was indeed right to bet.

After silver was used on a large scale underground, with more monks and less meat, all kinds of materials underground became extremely cheap, and silver completely exceeded its own value.

He exchanged the silver for some underground materials, such as blood and iron. As human money gradually poured in, he sold the blood iron at about the same time and exchanged it for silver.

Over time, I have accumulated a net worth of nearly three hundred taels, as well as some precious medicinal herbs.

They are all obtained by speculating on money, buying low and selling high.

In this way, I occasionally visit the market and spend most of my time training my demon body.

Su Wu's life began to become regular.

But the underground world is changing every moment. It is constantly blending with humans, just like a burning fire cooking oil. No one knows what the final outcome will be.

It is still a remote corner of Xuetiefang City.

"call!"

"It's finally done!"

"This shedding technique is really abnormal. Even if it is just the first time to practice it, it will consume a lot of energy and scare the monster."

In his own cave, Su Wu wrapped his body with his tail and let out a long breath.

At this moment, his body was covered in blood, as if he had been skinned alive, and looking at the ground, there was also a complete snake skin.

After settling down, he gradually brewed the decoction according to the peeling technique and absorbed the medicinal properties. This continued for nearly a month. After several failures, he finally succeeded in practicing the first level of the peeling technique.

This is also his second molt.

It's just that unlike the first instinctive molting, this time it's the function of the molting technique, and the skin needs to be peeled off by hand. The pain of the process is almost beyond description in words.

It's like a drag race with death.

Both the energy consumed and the various precious medicinal materials consumed are unimaginable.

Fortunately, Su Wu didn't care too much about these external things. The most important thing was that they could be transformed into strength.

Although it costs a lot now, the rewards are even more gratifying.
