Chapter Seventy Underwater Treasure Hunting

The mountains and fields are silent, and the bright moon is in the sky.

"I'll take you back." Bai Jing walked towards the Brabus G500.

Everything here is fake, only the car is real.

Ning Tao didn't bother to tell the truth, as long as he understood. He also has his own secrets. The white snake slough has already been obtained, and it is indeed time to go back.

Wei Bo, who was waiting by the car, opened the door of the driver's cab, and then quickly walked around to the other side and opened the door of the passenger cab.

Ning Tao glanced back, the white lanterns were swaying in the wind, and the antique buildings were beautiful, recalling the previous experience was like a dream.

Bai Jing said with a smile: "You can't bear it? Why don't you stay here with my sister to recover from her injuries, and you can leave here with her when she recovers."

Ning Tao smiled awkwardly, not wanting to talk nonsense with her, his eyes moved to the direction of the water pool, and changed the subject, "There is a water pool below, I want to see it."

Bai Jing stared at Ning Tao, "Why do you want to go there?"

"You said that Qingzhui needs to live in a place with plenty of spiritual energy. The source of the spiritual energy here is in the pool. I want to go down and have a look." Ning Tao did not hide it, and there is no need for it. Since Bai Jing can find it This place is for Qing Zhui to recuperate, so she must know the secret of that pool.

Bai Jing was silent for a while before saying, "Come with me."

Ning Tao followed Bai Jing to the bottom of the cliff.

The pool is not big, it is in the shape of an ellipse, with no bottom in the middle. A small waterfall formed by the convergence of mountain springs flies down from the cliff and pours into the pool under the cliff, with the sound of water and surging waves. But the strange thing is that there is only water flowing in, but no water flowing out.

Ning Tao stood by the pond and looked into the water. The water in the middle of the pond was so deep that he couldn't see anything at the bottom. He then changed another method, quietly awakening the state of seeing and hearing skills of the eyes and nose. After that, what he saw was different. In his line of sight, wisps of aura continuously floated out from this pool, and the scene was like a hot spring pool.

"The aura comes from below, have you gone down to see it?" Ning Tao asked.

Bai Jing said: "I went down, but you also saw that this pool only has inflowing water, no outflowing water. Below this pool is a dark river, a very small dark river, and the water in the pool is connected to the dark river. Yes, I can't enter the dark river." After a pause, she added, "But I guess there is a spiritual vein underneath, even if I find it, I can't take it away."

"Lingmai?" Ning Tao heard of it for the first time.

There was a hint of teasing in Bai Jing's voice, "I really don't know how you, a cultivator, got here, don't you even know the spirit veins?"

Ning Tao shook his head, "I mainly specialize in medical skills."

Bai Jing sighed, "Okay, let me tell you. Mountains and rivers have spiritual veins, which connect the earth like rivers, and the earth also has vitality, and then breeds all things. They are the spirits transformed by the aura of heaven and earth. Sometimes it’s hidden in rocks, sometimes it’s hidden in the mud of underground rivers, and there’s no way to collect it at all.”

"So that's how it is." Ning Tao understood a little.

"However, as human beings destroy the environment, spiritual veins are becoming rarer and rarer now. If this continues, I am afraid that the cultivators and our monster race will perish after a while. Spiritual energy is the most important training resource, so now Practitioners and demons in China have a strong sense of territory, if you stray into their territory, they may attack you." Bai Jing said.

"So this is the territory of you and Qingzhui?"

"Yes." Bai Jing said, "In fact, it took us more than a month to dismantle and move."

Ning Tao secretly said in his heart: "That mustache may have caught the fragments in this pool before she and Qing Zhui moved here, otherwise Bai Jing could not have found those fragments. If this is the spiritual energy emanating from the spirit veins, How did the remnant inkstone come from?"

"Okay, let's go, our company has another meeting tomorrow morning." Bai Jing said.

Ning Tao said, "I want to go down and have a look, is that okay?"

"What are you going down for? I told you, there is nothing down here, only a dark river."

"I still want to go down and have a look." Ning Tao said.

Bai Jing frowned, "You are really a stubborn person, well, go down, I will wait for you on the shore."

Bai Jing stared at Ning Tao.

Ning Tao said, "I want to take off my clothes."

"Then take it off." Bai Jing said, still staring at Ning Tao.

Ning Tao, "..."

Two minutes later, Ning Tao, who was only wearing a pair of underwear, plunged into the pool.

The water in the pool is cold, and the water is pitch black. However, after his eyes entered the state of observation, Ning Tao saw wisps of spiritual energy rising from the water, and he could roughly grasp the underwater situation based on the conditions of those spiritual energy.

There are several small holes at the bottom of the pool, and the spiritual energy comes out from under the holes. Some holes are only the size of a fist, while others are the size of a washbasin. Even in the water, the sound of the underground river flowing can be heard.

Ning Tao dived quickly. When he dived to a certain distance, his eardrums "hummed". The water pressure made his ears hurt, and his head became dizzy due to lack of oxygen. At this moment, his Niwan Palace was shaken, and the spiritual energy field rippled like ripples spreading in his body and consciousness, like the tide flowing over the beach, every cell was "soaked" by the spiritual energy. Right after that, his ears stopped ringing, his head didn't feel dizzy, and more importantly, his body didn't feel the lack of oxygen anymore.

A practitioner who dives is an oxygen cylinder with ample reserves.

Ning Tao continued to dive, and soon reached the bottom of the pool. He squatted in front of a hole, and put his hand into the hole. The water in the dark river was colder than the water in the pond, but it was not deep. There is nothing in it except sand and pebbles.

"Are there only those fragments?" Ning Tao was disappointed. Apart from feeling the spirit veins himself, he also dived for the fragments of the broken inkstone. invisible.

Boom!

Suddenly there was a sound above his head, and a stone fell down, almost hitting Ning Tao.

Bai Jing obviously got impatient and urged him to go up in this way.

A stone the size of a fist fell into the sand at the bottom of the pool, a cloud of sand swayed, and a faint aura suddenly emerged from the sand.

"Huh?" Ning Tao's heart moved, and he swam over, stretched out his hand to remove the stone, and then dug up the sand, and a fragment exuding spiritual energy immediately entered his sight. He stretched out his hand to pick it up, and with the faint brilliance produced by the aura in his eyes, he saw that it was a fragment of a broken inkstone!

Ning Tao suddenly became agitated, and followed by digging the sand around him with his hands, fragments of broken inkstone exuding faint spiritual energy were exposed from the sand...

At the edge of the pool, Bai Jing, who waited for a while and still hadn't seen anything, frowned, and bent down to pick up a stone again.

Crash!

Ning Tao emerged from the water.

Bai Jing threw the stone back to the ground, "What are you doing down there? Staying for so long."

Ning Tao said: "This is the first time I have come into contact with Lingmai, so I want to observe it. You go back first, and I will be right back."

Bai Jing said: "You are so troublesome? Wouldn't it be good to go back together?"

Ning Tao showed an awkward smile, "I want to change my pants, you wouldn't be interested in watching me change my pants, would you?"

Bai Jing smiled, "I'm interested, can you show me?"

Ning Tao, "..."

A demon is a demon, not a normal woman.

"Forget it, I won't flirt with you anymore, or my sister will accuse me again if she finds out. I'll go back first, so hurry up and follow me." Bai Jing turned and left.

Ning Tao just climbed up from the pool, and the first thing he did when he got ashore was to put the fragments of more than a dozen broken inkstones dug from under the pool into a small medicine box.

He wanted to tell Bai Jing, but he recalled that when he mentioned that he would come to the pool to have a look, Bai Jing hesitated, if he told her about the broken inkstone, maybe she would not let him take it away. Now that cultivation resources are scarce, cultivators and monsters all have a strong sense of territory. Under such circumstances, it is really possible for her to "confiscate" the fragments of the inkstone.

But this is not considered stealing, is it?

This water pool has existed since ancient times, and it has only been more than a month since she came here to occupy the mountain as king.

Thinking of this, Ning Tao felt relieved, and made such a decision. He took off his underwear and put on his pants after putting away the broken inkstone fragments. After getting dressed, he originally wanted to throw away the wet underwear, but he thought that this is someone's practice treasure, and it would be indecent for him to throw a pair of underwear here, and then he put the underwear into a small medicine box, and then leave.

Back on the same road, Bai Jing sent Ning Tao to the gate of the community where Jiang Hao's house was located.

Ning Tao got out of the car and patted on the door, "Thanks, let's go back."

Bai Jing looked at Ning Tao, "Be nice to my sister, if you bully her, I'll never end with you."

"Don't worry, goodbye." Ning Tao turned and left, not wanting to hear her rambling, she said the same thing several times on the way.

Bai Jing watched Ning Tao walk into the gate of the community, and only grinned when she was out of sight, "Funny guy, my sister has finally come to an end."

Ning Tao did not go back to Jiang Hao's house, but directly climbed up to the rooftop, opened the blood lock and returned to the Tianwai Clinic.

When he returned to the clinic, Ning Tao couldn't wait to open the small medicine box, and took out the pieces he had fished out of the pond. There were sixteen pieces in total, and they were the same as the ones he found in Panjiayuan's Little Beard, with irregular shapes and unidentifiable materials.

A few minutes later, Ning Tao pieced together the sixteen pieces and got half a broken inkstone. He then took the remnant inkstone that was barely glued together, and then carefully put the two parts together.

A complete inkstone was born.

But it's just a barely complete shape, and nothing special happens when the two parts are put together.

Ning Tao stared at the inkstone, thinking in his heart, "I don't know what magic weapon you are, I hope you can give me an answer after repairing you."

He had the idea of ​​using the rotten tripod to refine the whole inkstone right away, but when he was treating Qing Zhui, he wasted so much that he really didn't have the energy to do it again, so he gave up after thinking about it. He didn't choose a place anymore, and fell asleep on the floor of the clinic.
