Chapter 112: Sharing and Fighting

Lu Sisi and Li Tongya landed east of Lidaokou on the wind. A group of gray-faced villagers had already gathered in the Lu family's territory. They had cut down a large area of forest and built dozens of scattered small huts. The clean-cut wood was piled up, ready to build the mining area.

"This green crow mineral grows on ordinary iron ore. Occasionally, a few pieces of green crow are mixed in the mine. As mining deepens, it is often necessary to survey the specific direction with vein-seeking techniques, which cannot be done without the An family."

As soon as Lu Sisi finished speaking, Li Tongya nodded. Sure enough, having an inheritance is the most popular thing. No wonder every family hides it and destroys it in time when they encounter danger. It is indeed a tool for making a living.

As soon as the two landed, the mortals below knelt down. Lu Sisi pointed to the small hillside at his feet and explained:

"The An family estimated that the mine is narrow and small, and it only takes one or two thousand people to invest. It can produce a hundred pieces of green crow mineral every month. The price in the prefecture should be about thirty spirit stones. It is a profitable business that only costs some manpower."

Li Tongya nodded, estimated the distance to Wangyue Lake, and reminded:

"This place is only three hundred miles away from Wangyue Lake. There is a market on Wangyue Lake, and loose cultivators often come and go. We must set up an array to cover it up and disguise it as an ordinary town."

Lu Sisi nodded hurriedly. The mine goes deep into the west and cannot be hidden from the Li family, but it is no problem to hide it from some loose cultivators. He immediately laughed:

"Little friend is right. Our Lu family still has one or two array disks. Just leave it to us. We can cover it up at the entrance of the mine."

After the two exchanged for a while, the bald man of the An family also landed on the side on the wind, cupped his hands and smiled at Li Tongya:

"We met in a hurry a few years ago, but I didn't report my name to Brother Tongya. Now we finally meet again."

After speaking, he raised his hands, his face full of kind smiles. He couldn't see the ruthlessness of discussing the destruction of the Li family a few months ago. The smile on his face was truly kind, as if he were an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

"I am An Jiyan of the An family. Long time no see."

Li Tongya hurriedly cupped his hands and smiled:

"Li Tongya has met Brother An."

Lu Sisi laughed and gave An Jiyan a wink, saying sternly:

"Since little friend has also seen the mineral vein, this matter of sharing must be brought up."

An Jiyan nodded repeatedly and hurriedly said:

"The direction and survey of this mineral vein are all done by my An family's vein-seeking technique. In the future, mining will be inseparable from my family's survey. It is agreed to share forty percent. This share cannot be less!"

Lu Sisi laughed and looked at Li Tongya, who said nothing, and tested:

"This mineral vein needs to be mined well, and it is inseparable from everyone's concerted efforts. Why don't you take forty percent for the An family, and my Lu family takes forty percent..."

Li Tongya watched the two sing in harmony, knowing in his heart that this matter still needed to be solved by himself. He smiled lightly and said in a deep voice:

"Most of this mineral vein is in my Li family's territory, but there are a few branches in the Lu family's territory. It is too unfair for the two families to share equally. Why don't we distribute it according to the amount of ore in each family's territory."

As soon as this was said, Lu Sisi and An Jiyan froze, their faces turned ugly. An Jiyan took a deep breath, squeezed out a smile, and asked:

"What does Brother Li mean?"

Li Tongya nodded to An Jiyan, pressed his right hand on the long sword at his waist, and said warmly:

"Mining the mineral vein is the work of the An family, so naturally, some should be allocated to Brother An. Why don't we do this: my Li family takes fifty percent, and the An family takes thirty percent."

An Jiyan was stunned and opened his mouth but didn't speak. Lu Sisi raised his eyebrows and whispered:

"The Li family has a big appetite. Are you joking?"

Li Tongya shook his head and laughed:

"It is you who are joking. You two sing in harmony and want eighty percent of the mineral vein. Are you bullying the younger generation for being young and easy to talk to, thinking that the younger generation is submissive and will agree?"

After speaking, he lifted his green blade and said carelessly:

"Anyway, we will have to fight sooner or later. Let's see the real chapter under our hands."

Lu Sisi and An Jiyan looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't fool him, and they still had to fight. Lu Sisi nodded, and the jade scepter in his hand had already soared into the air.

An Jiyan was in a dilemma, but saw the white light on Li Tongya's long sword blazing, and the crescent-shaped sword arc had already covered the two of them. He frowned and shouted:

"How arrogant!"

After speaking, he summoned a green crow long stick in his hand and raised it to meet Li Tongya's Moon Crescent sword arc.

The two came to meet in a hurry, but the sword energy in Li Tongya's hand had been accumulated for a long time. The sharp sword energy broke the clear spirit true essence on the two magic weapons in an instant, making two sounds of gold and iron clashing, and bounced them several feet away to the left and right.

Li Tongya did not forgive him, and two profound water sword energies shot out, attacking the two. The profound water sword energies were fired one after another, beating the two so that they had no power to fight back.

Li Tongya did not use the Moon Crescent sword arc when he attacked the Ji family with the two. Lu Sisi and the two miscalculated his strength for a time, and the magic weapons were knocked away and could not be resisted, so they had to dodge in a hurry.

After finally summoning the magic weapons back, they were occupied by Li Tongya again, and they had the power to parry but no chance to fight back, so they awkwardly resisted.

Li Tongya received the Heavy Sea Long Whale Record, his magic power was thick, and he swallowed white air between his breaths, hard-pressed the two to fight for half an hour. Seeing that An Jiyan, who had lower cultivation, was slightly pale, he finally stopped and whispered:

"Do the two still want to continue?"

An Jiyan's face turned rosy visibly, he waved his hand and lowered his head without speaking. Lu Sisi also gritted his teeth and his face changed, put on a smiling face, and laughed:

"I didn't expect Brother Tongya's swordsmanship to be so amazing. It was our rashness. This fifty percent should be taken by the Li family."

The words were much more respectful, and he no longer called Li Tongya a little friend, but began to call Li Tongya Brother Tongya. An Jiyan also laughed, and the three seemed to be just a small discussion. The atmosphere was harmonious, Li Tongya nodded and said warmly:

"My Li family accepts this fifty percent, and you two can share the rest."

His true essence was still abundant, leaving face for the two, and he didn't want to expose his deep true essence that was different from ordinary people, and didn't force the two to exhaust their true essence. Looking at the two who were discussing, Li Tongya also had an estimate of his current strength and secretly said:

"These two are much stronger than the Shanyue Qi Refining, but they are far from Zhang Yun of the Jin Yu Sect, not to mention that Zhang Yun may not be my opponent now. If I hadn't found out the background of the two families, it would not be impossible to annex the two families directly..."

The two argued for a while and shared the remaining fifty percent equally, and then discussed that the three families would send Fetal Breathing cultivators to supervise, and then take turns sending Qi Refining cultivators to sit in town, which ended the matter.

The final result was that the Lu family set up the array, the An family sent people to survey, and the Li family had the largest population among the three families, so they provided most of the miners.

Li Tongya nodded secretly and was quite satisfied with the current result. After all, there were many refugees fleeing from the Shanyue, and the villages were overcrowded, so it was best to have such a mineral vein to place the Shanyue refugees.

Lu Sisi looked at Li Tongya with a smile, his heart full of worry, his mind full of the sword with blazing white light when it was unsheathed, and he secretly thought:

"This kind of power is by no means a low-grade sword technique. It is definitely a fourth-grade sword technique!"

So he said with a thick face:

"Brother Tongya's swordsmanship is truly amazing! I don't know... whose inheritance is it? What is it called?"

Seeing Lu Sisi put down his face and ask to this point, Li Tongya had to frown and say in a deep voice:

"It is the magic formula passed down by my father, called Moon Crescent Sword Technique."

After speaking, he stopped talking and didn't mention that this sword technique only had one style.

An Jiyan's expression became solemn, and he looked at Lu Sisi's ugly face, and made a judgment in his heart, secretly saying:

"The rumor that the Li family had a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the previous generation is true. No wonder this Li Tongya's proper true essence is thick and clear. It turns out to be a family inheritance! This sword technique is even more amazing. It is a unique skill to kill people when they are caught off guard."

Lu Sisi thought deeper, the worry in his eyes deepened, looking at Li Tongya's young face in his thirties, he was shocked and afraid in his heart, and thought:

"This person is different from others, cautious and strong. I am afraid he will not die halfway. We must leave a way for our children and grandchildren!"

He was even more desperate, his heart was cold, and the joy of getting the green crow mineral dissipated cleanly. His old eyes were turbid. Seeing that Li Tongya was about to cup his hands and leave, he hurriedly smiled flatteringly and said:

Li Tongya was stunned, his expression was a bit strange, he nodded slightly, and cupped his hands:

"Senior Lu is polite."
