The miners shrank into the depths of the mine in fear, waiting for rescue.

Heavy snow filling wells is the biggest disaster, because when snow melts, water becomes water, and Nengjing mine caves are the most impervious to water. Therefore, the soldiers responsible for the rescue need to dig out the heavy snow bit by bit. They cannot directly melt the snow with boiling water.

, let alone use fire.

There is a lack of food, clothing to keep out the cold, and even air in the closed mine.

A day later, some miners went crazy with fear and rushed towards the snow that was spreading deeper into the mine. They were then covered by the heavy snow. When they were pulled out, their bodies were already frozen and stiff.

Two days later, some miners couldn't help but eat a lot of snow to ward off hunger and thirst, and then died of dehydration in the cold.

For three days and four days, the hope of survival became increasingly slim. The remaining miners looked at each other with green eyes, as if they were ready to bite a piece of flesh from each other at any time.

Yuan Xiang was old, suffered from cold, developed a high fever due to lack of food, and his will became unclear.

Several miners finally couldn't bear the hunger and gathered around Yuan Xiang.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Lu stood in front of Yuan Xiang, holding a piece of energy crystal in his hand.

"If you come one step closer, I will crush this energy crystal. The material spilled from the energy crystal will remain on our bodies, and the energy crystal in my hand exceeds three liang." This energy crystal is Zhang Lu.

It was accidentally unearthed after being sealed underground for a few days. It is in excellent condition. If it is handed over, it will be regarded as a great achievement.

Looking at the energy crystal in Zhang Lu's hand, several miners showed fear on their faces.

If Zhang Lu was serious, then even if they ate Yuan Xiang, they would only delay their death.

Special military dogs are domesticated in the mines. They can sniff out the smell of broken energy crystals on the miners.

"Okay! Wang Qiu! You're a good boy, just wait for us. Wait a few more days, and we won't eat Yuan Xiang. We'll eat you." A dark and short miner looked at Zhang Lu fiercely and threatened.

Several miners backed away, but they always looked at Zhang Lu and Yuan Xiang with hungry wolf eyes.

Zhang Lu was very familiar with this look in his eyes. He had seen many of them during his six months of wandering, and he himself had had such a look in his eyes. In the face of hunger, no matter how civilized a person is, he will degenerate into a beast at any time.

On the fifth day after being buried under heavy snow, the mine was finally dug out, and the miners who had already fainted from hunger were carried out of the mine. This time, a total of nine miners died completely underground. Their families will receive a sum of money.

An unexpected windfall of five million can be the inheritance of a distant relative or an unexpected lottery win.

However, their traces will be deliberately erased by invisible forces, and gradually even the people closest to them will forget them.

Zhang Lu was given a week to recuperate. Yan Yu brought him some supplements and food through various checks, but was sent out without a few words with Zhang Lu. Although he was nominally the boss of the mine

, but he has no qualifications to interfere with the affairs of this mine. All he has to do is to spread suspicion outside and make countless people believe that he is a mine owner with a very inconspicuous name and not much output.

An ordinary small mine.

Of course, at critical moments... he is also a warning light and a siren.

If there are foreign forces that want to intervene in the energy crystal mine.

Then we will definitely target the owner of this mine first... Yan Yu.

"Can I come in?" Yuan Xiang opened the door and walked in while he was talking.

He recovered very quickly, even much faster than Zhang Lu. He was not at all like how he was in the mine before. It was obvious that someone had used some rare special medicine on him.

"Do you have anything to do with me?" Zhang Lu looked at Yuan Xiang, his expression indifferent and resistant.

However, Yuan Xiang sat directly beside the bed, and then said with a sullen face: "You saved me, and I won't hide it from you. I know that you have always wanted to learn mining skills from me. I have also heard about your situation. It's quite...

difficult."

For Zhang Lu, the bloody past is almost like a nightmare, but to others, it is just the ups and downs of life and difficulty. People know whether drinking water is warm or cold.

"My method is very simple to say the least. It's a rough iron sand palm passed down from my ancestors. Nowadays, the world is dominated by guns... It's useless to learn it. It's easy to kill people when you use it, but you can use it when you are young.

If you are fierce and fierce, you will have to use your life to replenish the lost energy and blood when you are old. If you are willing to learn... I am also willing to teach you. If nothing else, it is very useful for mining." Yuan

Xiang said stiffly.

It seems that he is not a very expressive person.
