Cultivation starts with taming beasts

As soon as he finished speaking, a lot of spirit stones flew out of his storage bag and scattered in front of everyone.

Then, he said in a sincere tone,

"Here are ten low-grade spirit stones for each person, as a token of appreciation and compensation from my Black Water Sect."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Lin."

Everyone also expressed their gratitude, and the previous frustration and unhappiness all disappeared.

All the people present, at least a large part of them were poor and destitute, and these ten low-grade spirit stones were also a windfall for them.

At the same time, Qi Yunxian was also a little strange. With the status of the Black Water Sect, there was no need to buy people's hearts. From the attitude of the Liu family ancestor towards everyone before, it can be seen that in his eyes, these casual cultivators are not much different from ordinary people.

"From today on, you are the miners hired by Black Water Gate. Manager Wei may have told you some things."

"But I still want to remind you of some rules in the mine. Occasional fighting is okay, but if someone dies and affects the mining progress of Black Water Gate, I will never let him go."

"Also, you will mine here for three years, so Lin will regularly give you a bottle of free Bigu Pill every month."

"Do you have any other questions? If not, you can prepare to enter the mine to work."

Everyone was a little unhappy with this temporary condition before, and when Lin Li proposed it again, some people couldn't sit still.

A female cultivator named Zhao Yun asked boldly,

"When recruiting workers, the Liu family didn't say anything about three years. Why do we have to work for three years once we get here? The mine was not like this before!"

"The past was the past, and now it is now. The Liu family managed it before, and now the mine is supervised by our Black Water Gate. The conditions are naturally different. Otherwise, how could there be such a high salary this time."

Lin Li said indifferently,

"But this is too long, three years? If we stay here for three years, the elders in our family will think we are all dead outside. How can this work?"

Someone else whispered,

"You're right, it's too long, I don't want this spirit stone anymore."

A tall and thin casual cultivator muttered as if he had made up his mind, pushed the spirit stone in front of him out, and walked back.

"Want to leave, did I agree?"

Lin Li, who was in front of everyone just now, came to the tall and thin casual cultivator like a ghost in the blink of an eye, and strangled the other's throat with one hand.

With a crisp "click", the casual cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining died at the hands of Lin Li.

Throwing the body down, Lin Li said with a grim smile,

"I didn't agree, you want to leave? This is the end, anyone who quits halfway will die."

Everyone present was shocked. How was this behavior different from the robbery cultivators? The spirit stones of the Black Water Gate were not so easy to get.

For a while, the scene was terribly quiet, and it seemed that each other could hear each other's breathing.

After the death of the tall and thin cultivator, the casual cultivators finally understood one thing. They were just a group of lambs to be slaughtered in front of the Black Water Gate, and they had no right to say no.

Even the peak of Qi Refining Lin Li in front of them was enough to kill all of the more than 30 of them, not to mention the elder Liu who was in charge of the foundation building cultivation not far away.

Zhao Yun, who had opened her mouth to leave before, was frightened to death. She lowered her head and stood still, fearing that she would be killed by Lin Li the next moment.

Qi Yunxian was the only one present who remained calm. The law of the jungle is the norm in the world of immortal cultivation.

Perhaps others would be shocked by Lin Li's unpredictable body movements, but in Qi Yunxian's eyes, it was just that.

On the contrary, it was the unusual recruitment of workers at the Huangshi Island mine that made him a little alert. You know, there are many miners in the mine, and the Black Water Gate is still entrusting the Liu family to continue recruiting workers.

The annual spiritual stones alone are an astronomical figure. I don't know what conspiracy the Black Water Gate and the Liu family have.

He is not interested in staying here for three years. The pills on his body can't support him to practice here for a long time.

This is also the reason why only some of the lowest-level casual cultivators come here even though the treatment at the mine is not low.

Because there is no spiritual energy in the mine, if you want to practice, you can only take pills, and consuming pills requires spiritual stones. In this way, the spiritual stones earned are not as much as the spiritual stones spent on buying pills.

Therefore, those cultivators who are expected to make further progress will naturally not choose to mine ore in the mine.

Besides, Qi Yunxian has to return to the Qi family to participate in the family competition to inherit the inheritance left by his parents, so why would he waste time in this mine.

"As long as you work hard for my Black Water Sect, I guarantee that everyone will make a lot of money in three years."A full bowl."

Lin Li had just made an example of someone, and now he was naturally trying to appease everyone. After all, they were still needed to do the mining work.

"Li Ming, take these people into the mine."

After saying that, Lin Li bowed to Elder Liu and turned to leave.

He was one of the four managers of the Black Water Gate who stayed in the mine to maintain the Clouds and Golden Light Formation. He could not leave the formation for too long. The four managers, including the previous Manager Wei, were all at the peak of Qi Refining.

Among them, Manager Wei had the highest status, but this had nothing to do with strength, because among the five foundation-building cultivators of the Black Water Gate stationed on Huangshi Island, his master had the highest cultivation and was the only one in the middle stage of foundation-building.

"Manager Lin, wait a minute, I have something to ask you. "

Lin Li was about to leave, but was stopped by Elder Liu. An unhappy look flashed across his face, but he turned around and had another kind face.

"Li Ming, take these people in first!"

Elder Liu didn't seem to want Qi Yunxian and others to hear him. He then talked with Lin Li and waved his hand to signal Li Ming to take them away.

"Lin Li, you are getting more and more excessive. Do you know how much pressure my Liu family will bear if this kind of thing is exposed?"

Elder Liu said coldly,

"This matter is not something I can decide. Everything is the will of the Black Water Gate. Besides, the Liu family has benefited a lot from it over the years. Since Elder Liu has an opinion, he might as well discuss it with Uncle Wei and the others."

Lin Li answered cautiously,

"Humph, you know that Brother Wei and the other five are not in Huangshi Island. They are busy with the Longmen Gorge recently. Otherwise, why would they need me to come to the mine in person to guard it?

You are making excuses like this. It seems that you four have grown too powerful and don't even take me seriously.

Although I left the Black Water Sect and set up my own sect, I can't deal with Wei Guanshi and his men with my past connections in the Black Water Sect, but I can still beat you, a Qi Refining Stage person with no foundation."
