Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 80: A surge in basic energy reserves

The rain stopped only yesterday evening. The air in the valley in the morning was very, very good. Zhang Tie’s nose seemed to be able to smell the scent of the grass on the roadside, and the fresh air corresponded to the road conditions in the valley. , The trails that had been walked out by people in the valley had already become muddy and slippery this morning. If you are not careful, you can fall into the mud. Zhang Tie only slowed down. Walked towards the mine a few kilometers away.

Soon after Zhang Tie left the tree house, he ran into two teams of trialers who were going out hunting today. There were more than ten people in each team. When Zhang Tie passed them, those guys were surprised. He glanced at the mine basket on Zhang Tie's body, and then one by one with a trace of disdain fluttered over Zhang Tie's body, and then he held his head and walked away proudly...

In the past two days, Zhang Tie was immune to these contemptuous eyes. Zhang Tie couldn't remember when he seemed to have seen a passage-a man who could not bear loneliness and could never grow up. For Zhang Tie, this situation is the process of growing up alone.

What grew up was the Dark Iron Fort and Zhang Tie's gradually stronger heart.

After several days of hard work by Zhang Tie, the basic energy reserve value in the Black Iron Fort has reached 2000. Compared with the basic energy reserve that was only a few dozen before the trial, the difference between the two is almost a hundred times different. This is the result of Zhang Tie’s labor during this period. After throwing all kinds of messy stones from one ore basket and one ore basket into the Chaos Pool, the stones and ores converted into basic energy are rapidly making the Black Iron Fort strong. stand up. For Zhang Tie, these energy reserves can actually allow him to make some small terrain transformations in the Black Iron Fort. For example, he first created a small pool, but Zhang Tie was not satisfied. He planned to accumulate a little more and wait until later. When the interview is over, make a decision as needed.

In addition to the basic energy reserves, the aura value in the Black Iron Fortress is also rapidly increasing. All the seeds given by Mother Teresa have sprouted and are growing well. The potatoes and corn grown in Zhang Tie’s private plot , Sweet potatoes, pumpkins and other foods are also growing gratifyingly. The current Black Iron Fort is no longer a barren wasteland, but has begun to have some scattered, flourishing greenery, that flourishing greenery. The vitality brought has made Zhang Tie feel good every time he enters and exits the Black Iron Fort in the past two days. Taking advantage of the opportunities brought about by this trial, Zhang Tie has always intentionally used his own food these days to exchange some of the wild fruits collected by the girls. For those things, if there are grains, Zhang Tie takes those grains. When I arrived at the Black Iron Fort, I sprinkled it on the ground at will. In the past few days, Zhang Tie’s memory has scattered the seeds of more than ten kinds of wild fruits, the most of which is the seeds of pine trees, that is, pine nuts. , Zhang Tie scattered several acres of pine nuts in the Black Iron Fort, and the seeds of some plants could not even be named Zhang Tie. He just saw flowering or fruit-dropping plants on the road. Just pick it up or pick it up and throw it into the mine basket, and then after entering the Black Iron Fort, you will randomly find an open space and throw those unknown seeds on the ground. It doesn't matter if the back grows or not.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion. When I came to mine two days ago, Zhang Tie always had a feeling of being watched on the way back and forth in the morning and night. But this morning, when he was on the way to mining, he felt like being watched and The feeling of tracking is gone, which makes Zhang Tie a little strange, whether his neurotic problem has committed again, but he did not think deeply.

After the first rain in June, the dandelions in the valley grew everywhere overnight, and the white hairballs of dandelion appeared from the grass one by one, as if waiting for the arrival of a strong wind. Seeing these lovely dandelions, Zhang Tie was in a good mood and didn't dislike it. He picked more than a dozen dandelion hair **** on the road and threw them into the mine basket on his back.

...

Half an hour later, Zhang Tie came to the mine of an iron mine nearest to the Wild Wolf Castle. This mine was only more than two hundred meters away from the Wild Wolf Castle. Many people who came to mine were gathered to work in this mine. On the ground covered by weeds outside the mine, there is also a rusty small minecart track that has been demolished in half. It seems to be telling the previous prosperity and excitement here. This mine may have been very It's important, but now, it's also a place where a few unlucky students exchange hard work for food.

Because it is too close to the wolf castle, right under the eyes of those girls, perhaps because of fear of shame, no boys choose to camp in this mine, which makes the mine a lot cleaner.

In the past few days, people who come here to mine every day will have a lot of fresh faces, and many old faces will disappear. Those who really settle down here to mine, Zhang Tie observes and connects to himself. There are only a dozen people, perhaps because this job really does not give a sense of honor. Those guys who decide to come here to mine are all introverted and taciturn, and basically don’t like to talk very much. Zhang Tie came here to do a few things. Heaven, but I didn’t even know a friend, but this is exactly what Zhang Tie intended. It’s better for no one to pay attention here. Zhang Tie also pretended to be introverted and taciturn, and muffled himself in the mine. Thing.

There is a large area of ​​abandoned rubble on the outside of the mine. On rainy days, the rubble makes the road around the mine easier. At least there is not so much mud. The exposed hole of this mine is very large. Ten square meters, Zhang Tie took a break at the entrance of the mine, stepped the mud from his shoes on a stone at the entrance of the cave, and then took out the torch and mine pick from the mine basket. After lighting the torch, Zhang Tie held the torch. Into the mine...

Even in broad daylight, after walking into the mine for tens of meters, especially after making two turns in the mine tunnel, the tunnel of the mine began to become invisible. If there is no light source, it is impossible to enter. Fortunately, the ground of the tunnel is relatively flat, without too many obstacles, which makes this dark tunnel a little easier to walk.

The light of the torch and the sound of Zhang Tie’s footsteps alarmed the pages of the mine’s entrance. The sound of those bats pouting their wings in the dark mine would appear loud, and they often put some of them first. People who came this time were startled, and Zhang Tie was also startled by the bats the first time he came, but he got used to it two more times.

The light of the torch pulled Zhang Tie’s figure from the pit to a shadow that danced with the light of the torch. The shadow was stuck to the wall of the mine and moved forward with Zhang Tie. Every time he came, Zhang Tie would bear it. I can’t help but quietly look at the weird walls in the mine. On the yellow-brown walls, there will be strange marks like circles of tire marks. There are too many strange marks, and the whole mine is densely covered. Zhang Tie can be sure that the tunnel of the cave is definitely not a trace left by man. Every time he sees those traces, Zhang Tie thinks of the legend that Shavin said about the golden python that appeared here thirty years ago. Three or four meters in diameter, extending underground, the whole body has strange traces in the round tunnels. Thinking of those exaggerated bodies crawling through these tunnels decades ago, everything can eat the terrifying giant in the belly. Python, Zhang Tie always feels shuddering in his mind. It seems that in the darkness of the tunnel, there are always monsters staring at him. Although he knows this is a psychological effect, every time Zhang Tie passes through those strange tunnels , Still can't help but speed up a little...

The faintly audible tinkling sound from the front calmed Zhang Tie’s little heart. It was the sound of a mining pick banging on the ore. He continued to walk several hundred meters in the cave and came to this tunnel. At the end of the sky, a huge space appeared in front of Zhang Tie's eyes. This space was larger than the Citizen's Square in Heiyan City. It was a bit like a natural karst cave. A few faint fires were emitted in some places in this dark underground space. It’s bright, it’s the torch that those who came first inserted into their mining area. In this dark place, the light of the torch has become as inconspicuous as an oil lamp, and the sound of a mining pick hitting a stone is here. Pieces and pieces in the space are ringing one after another. The echo effect in this huge mine makes those sounds seem to be far away, and they seem to be very close. For all those who walk through the long tunnels there, it can Seeing the little light in the darkness in front of me, and hearing the sound of the mine picks one after another, will make people breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, a sense of happiness will be born. At least for Zhang Tie...

The place where Zhang Tie usually digs is more concealed than other people. The place where he digs is another tunnel dug in this underground mining space. It is in the tunnel, even if it’s hitting it. There is not much light from the torch, and there are several fork roads and turns in this tunnel, which seem to lead to farther underground. This place is really ideal for Zhang Tie.

After coming to the place where he usually digs, Zhang Tie completely relaxed after setting up an inconspicuous small organ at the entrance of the tunnel with a few pieces of gravel, but can remind himself of the arrival of people behind.

Insert the torch into the gap in the wall of the tunnel. The light of the torch immediately illuminates the tens of square meters of space in the tunnel. Put the mine basket on the ground, and pour out the spare torches and dandelions in the mine basket. , And took off the dagger, kettle and dry food that were draped around his waist. Zhang Tie took a sip of water and picked up the mining pick. With enough strength, he began to join the chorus of mining picks in this underground cave!

When Zhang Tielun was holding the mining pick, what he didn't know was that the wolf castle above, a letter falcon flying from Black Flame City brought some latest news from Black Flame City over the past two days. Just yesterday, A major event occurred in Heiyan City. This major event is related to the envelope sent by Zhang Tie. After a week of fermentation, the storm caused by Heiyan City shook the entire Andaman Alliance. Rain, for everyone in Black Flame City, seems to have become a sign that a bigger storm is coming...
