Chapter 729 Sealing the Dragon Vein and Digging a Tunnel
Those people were not surprised to hear Chu Chen's shout.
Instead, he continued pushing the cart, going back and forth numbly.
Chu Chen stepped forward in surprise and saw that they were all expressionless, like living dead.
"Hey buddy, are you guys mining?"
Chu Chen walked up to a person pushing a cart and asked!
The man looked up and sized up Chu Chen, then continued pushing his car on his own.
Chu Chen looked at these people, who were like walking corpses, in surprise, and then grabbed the person!
Then he grabbed him and said, "You're a real person, why aren't you saying anything!"
Just then, a burly man walked towards Chu Chen!
But he had no weapons in his hands, no armor on his body, and looked dirty, like a beggar!
"Sir, he is mute. If he has any complaints, please tell me."
"Sir?" Looking at the man in front of him, Chu Chen waved his hand and took out a powerful flashlight, then shone it around!
"Where is this place? Who are you people?"
The man was also surprised when he heard Chu Chen's words!
Then, he looked Chu Chen up and down and saw that he was not wearing armor or carrying a long sword.
So he tentatively asked, "Sir, are you not a member of the royal family?"
"You mean Ma Keqing, one of the royal family's men? I'm not on the same wavelength as him!"
"Oh, and who are you?"
"Stop calling me who I am! Who are you? Where am I? What are you doing?"
After hearing Chu Chen's words, the man gradually lowered his guard!
But the next moment, he said in a panic, "Young master, you'd better leave quickly! I don't know how you got in. If the officials outside see you, you won't be able to leave!"
Chu Chen thought to himself, "Are you either stupid or deaf? I made such a loud noise just now, didn't you hear it?"
"You mean, that Heavenly Realm expert outside? He's already dead."
"No, didn't you hear that loud noise just now?"
Hearing Chu Chen's question, he was more surprised than anything else. The Heavenly Realm expert outside was actually dead?
Could this person before us be a Divine Realm expert?
So he replied, "Senior, we heard the commotion outside, but we dared not go to see. As for us, we are all imprisoned here by Ma Keqing."
Then, the man gave them a brief introduction to the situation here!
It turns out that this place is indeed the so-called dragon vein.
It's less of a dragon vein and more of a super mineral vein belonging to Ma Keqing.
This group of people were not just ordinary miners; they were actually members of the royal family from the previous dynasty.
After entering the Heavenly Realm, Ma Keqing resolutely challenged the imperial authority.
At that time, the strongest person in Anchang Kingdom was only at the Earth Mirror level, so Ma Keqing overcame all obstacles, directly occupied the palace, and seized the imperial power.
After seizing the throne, he discovered this mineral vein.
Faced with so many royals, he brought them all here and turned them into miners.
He also made use of this mineral vein and, in a short period of time, reached the level of a god.
However, these people had their cultivation directly stripped by Ma Keqing, turning them into ordinary people.
They toiled in this dark underground place every day, barely having enough to eat or wear.
They were given only the basic food necessary to survive.
Therefore, as soon as Chu Chen entered, he saw this group of humans who were like walking corpses.
How many of you are there in total?
After listening, Chu Chen asked a question.
It's impossible for Chu Chen to simply take the mineral vein away.
Because these jade mines are scattered, and he doesn't have the ability to collect the veins all at once.
Therefore, if we want to obtain this mineral vein, we need to make good use of these people.
"Reporting to young master, there are a total of 721 people in us, no children, and more than 30 elderly people."
Chu Chen nodded after listening, thinking to himself that it was not bad. As long as they were provided with sufficient living conditions, these people would be good laborers.
So he quickly added, "Since that's the case, I can now say that I've taken control of this mine. Are you willing to mine for me? Don't worry, I'll provide you with excellent living conditions."
After hearing this, the rough-looking man thought to himself that he had no other choice. He was already grateful that these people could live a better life.
“Young master, no matter who occupies this place, our work is the same. If you can give us a better life, then we will have more hope.”
Chu Chen nodded and smiled after listening, and then began to look around the place.
To truly acquire this mineral vein, we need to devise a plan.
Ideally, the outer iron gate should be sealed off.
And it needs to be fast.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen told the man that they would discuss it later, and then walked out of the mine.
Then, outside, he waved his hand and released dozens of machine gunners.
Tell them to take explosives and prepare to seal the hole.
Immediately afterwards, they took out several excavation machines, thinking that after sealing off this place, they could open up a passage from another direction to get out!
After completing these tasks, Chu Chen summoned the captain of the android's engineering team and gave him specific instructions.
Chu Chen stood in the outer room, looking at the ventilation hole above his head, thinking to himself that he was only about 10 or 20 meters underground!
Moreover, this mine is directly accessible!
With the involvement of large equipment, creating a ventilation channel can be done very quickly!
Then, you can use an air compressor to send air in!
Next, we'll slowly look for a better solution!
If the mine reaches outside the palace, then we will have truly secured it!
We'll build a house at the entrance, and no one will know!
After sending the excavation equipment, various fuels, and hundreds of machine gunners into the mine!
Chu Chen then ordered the machine gunners outside to install explosives to block the entrance!
To create the impression that this place is truly a dragon vein!
Chu Chen then took out a large crystal dragon-shaped ornament and placed it in another direction!
Then he said to the machine gunner, "After you block this place, bury that ornament, just leave one end sticking out!"
The machine gunner nodded, then dispersed the crowd and detonated the explosives!
Chu Chen didn't linger either; instead, he quickly headed outside.
He picked up the bound woman at the entrance of the passage, slipped out of the house, and went straight outside!
Just as they stepped out of the house, Chu Chen felt a tremor in the ground!
Not only Chu Chen, but also Li Haoran and Ma Keqing who were fighting, as well as those people hiding in the palace.
Everyone felt this tremendous shock!
"Huh? The earth dragon has turned over?"
After forcing Li Hao to retreat with one move, Ma Keqing frowned and glanced in the direction of his palace mine!
