“Thank you for your explanation, Head Morgan,” Caspian said with a smile.
When Jones Henry was there, Caspian called Lion Morgan the deputy head. At this time, Jones Henry was not there, so Caspian said ‘Head Morgan’ and removed the word ‘deputy’. Suddenly, the smile on Lion Morgan’s face became brighter and brighter.
Led by Lion Morgan, Caspian and Flame Gordon walked all the way into the mine.
The mine was basically the horrible pit where Caspian looked down in spirit boat before. There was a wide road leading to the pit. This road was not far from the big pit, and there was a memorial arch. This memorial arch was the door to the mine. But at this time, Caspian saw a very simple and crude hut beside the gate.
In front of the small house, an old man was bending and lowering his head, as if favonovel.com was waiting for the three of them. The old man’s hair was sparse, and the rest was white.
When Caspian approached, the old man raised his head and gave a trembling salute. Only then did Caspian see the old man’s face. This old man looked to be about 70 or 80 years old, but because there were only a few teeth left in his mouth, his mouth was shriveled. The flesh on his face was loose and broken, and there were extremely eye-catching old spots on his face.
“This is Mr. Qin…” Facing this old man who seemed to be on the verge of collapse and could be blown down by a gust of wind, Lion Morgan introduced favonovel.com with great respect.
“Mr. Qin was originally an elder of our Setting Sun Gate. Later, favonovel.com was attacked by demons when transporting goods. He was seriously injured and his cultivation declined, so favonovel.com couldn’t go further on the road to immortality. Later, favonovel.com took the initiative to come to the Blackwater Mine as a guard. He is an old man of the Setting Sun Gate, so everyone in our sect calls favonovel.com Mr. Qin.”
After introducing the old man’s identity, Lion Morgan introduced the identities of Caspian and Flame Gordon to the old man.
Hearing that they were disciples of the Upper Sect, Mr. Qin trembled and was about to kneel down on one knee. His current realm was only at Pulse Control Realm, and favonovel.com looked old, as if favonovel.com could die after taking a deep breath.
Caspian and Flame Gordon naturally wanted to stop favonovel.com from kneeling down. Caspian held Mr. Qin’s arm. An old man who had put in a lot of effort and devoted his life to the sect was worthy of respect. In particular, favonovel.com had once fought with demons for the sake of the sect.
“I’m going to check the mineral resources with the two disciples of the Upper Sect,” Lion Morgan said to Mr. Qin and then turned to make a gesture of invitation to Caspian and Flame Gordon.
Mr. Qin answered vaguely and made way. He now looked like an old man whose mind had begun to blur because of his old age. He then stood at the bottom of the arch and watched the three of them walk step by step toward the depths of the black gas along the inner wall of the mine, not leaving for a long time.
When looked down from the mid-air, the Blackwater mine was a huge pit, dark and bottomless. But in fact, it was not a straight hole, but a huge funnel with a wide upper and narrow bottom. The deeper they went, the narrower it became.
In order to be convenient for mining, Setting Sun Gate built a circle around the edge of the mine, rotating downward. On the walls of these roads, there would be mines one after another. The deeper they went, the denser the mines became. On the surface of the road, there was a vertical railway. The mine carts were on these tracks. Whether it went down or up, it was controlled by formation, which was extremely convenient. So at this moment, the three of them got on a mine cart, started formation, and began to drive down the mine.
During this process, Lion Morgan would introduce every mine in the inner wall to Caspian and Flame Gordon, such as when they were mined and when they got empty. The Setting Sun Gate had records of these things as well as Heaven’s Edge Sect, so there was no need for Lion Morgan to lie.
While walking, Flame Gordon suddenly found that there seemed to be something wrong with Caspian. It seemed that from the beginning, Caspian was thinking about something, and his right thumb and index finger would rub from time to time.
They came here for other purposes. Therefore, at this moment, Flame Gordon cast an inquiring look at Caspian and asked favonovel.com if favonovel.com had found anything.
When Caspian noticed the look in Flame Gordon’s eyes, favonovel.com shook his head slightly and signaled for favonovel.com that favonovel.com would tell favonovel.com after going back. Flame Gordon’s heart skipped a beat. Caspian’s response naturally meant that favonovel.com had already made a discovery.
‘As expected of a man who can discover my illusion secret. It’s the right choice to cooperate with favonovel.com since favonovel.com has a discovery so soon,’ Flame Gordon thought to himself.
On the way, Caspian and Flame Gordon did not stop, so Lion Morgan could only continue to go down.
Unknowingly, four hours had passed… It was getting dark, and the deeper they went, the darker the surroundings turned.
Lion Morgan turned to the two men and asked, “It’s getting late. I can go on, but I’m worried that it won’t be convenient for you to go back.”
Caspian looked up.
Because they had gone deep into the ground, the sky above them had shrunk to the size of a basin. Looking down again and again, favonovel.com really didn’t know if the sky would be as small as the needle at the bottom of the mine.
Flame Gordon looked at Caspian and asked for his opinion.
After pondering for a moment, Caspian pointed to a mine beside favonovel.com and said, “Today, I’m not here for an inspection. I’m here to familiarize myself with the environment and take a look at the Blackwater mine, one of the legendary ten mines in Lunia… In that case, I’ll have to trouble Head Morgan to take us into the mine and then go back.”
After asking the mine cart to stop, Lion Morgan looked at the mine beside favonovel.com and nodded, “Okay.”
When they walked to the mine, Caspian seemed to ask casually, “By the way, Head Morgan, how far are we from the deepest part of the mine?”
Lion Morgan stopped and looked down at the darkness. After thinking for a while, favonovel.com said, “There should be less than one-third of the place we are down now.”
“Oh, I see…” Caspian nodded and was about to walk into the mine.
“Please wait a moment,” Lion Morgan suddenly stopped Caspian.
“What’s wrong?” Caspian asked in confusion.
“It’s like this,” Lion Morgan walked in front of the two of them, stepped into the mine with one leg, and then said, “Although the mine of the Blackwater mine is straight up and down, its characteristic is that these mines on the inner wall are connected in all directions. The road inside was even more winding, like a maze. If you were not careful, you would get lost. And because all the mineral veins had been collected, there would be a small-scale landslide from time to time… So I’ll walk in front of you two. The two of you must remember that you must stay by my side and never leave me. You can’t go anywhere. Otherwise, once you get lost, it will be very troublesome.”
