Chapter 10 Help? Luring a Demon with a Human
"Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I will not easily reveal the matter of that dark gold."
"Furthermore, I am truly grateful that you are selling it at 70% of the market price."
"But what kind of help is this?"
Ye Xuan'an's eyes lit up as he looked at the dark gold and dark gold rat spirit materials, but he had some reservations about Pei Su's request.
In addition, dark gold is relatively rare, and it can generally only be purchased at a premium of 20% to 30%.
Under such circumstances, being able to purchase it at a 30% discount is truly a lucky thing.
"To be honest, fellow Daoist, I recently discovered another Dark Gold Rat nest in Mine No. 5. It contains at least several dozen kilograms of Dark Gold, and even two Dark Gold Rat cubs, but there are also two adult first-grade low-level Dark Gold Rats inside."
"I am no match for you on my own, so I seek your help and that of Fellow Daoist Zhang Fu."
"And Fellow Daoist Zhang Fu has already agreed to this matter, but I wonder what your thoughts are on it?"
Pei Su said calmly.
Furthermore, if any profits are obtained, they must take 50%, and they must also take a small dark golden rat.
After all, he discovered the nest, so he should get a larger share.
As for the remaining little dark golden rat cub, Ye Xuan'an and Zhang Fu will distribute it among themselves.
At the same time, since Ye Xuan'an's cultivation level is at the second level of Qi Refining, he can take 30% of the benefits.
Zhang Fuxiu was at the first level of Qi Refining, so he only achieved 20% of the required skill.
"This division of benefits is reasonable, and I had already agreed to it before."
"Now all that's missing is Fellow Daoist Xuan'an."
Zhang Fu, who was standing to the side, nodded and said with a smile.
"This matter is too complicated, I need to think about it. But I really didn't expect that you would find another Dark Gold Rat nest, and there are even rare little Dark Gold Rats inside."
"But fellow Daoist, aren't you from Mine No. 4? How come you found the nest in Mine No. 5?"
Ye Xuan'an was quite surprised and puzzled by this.
After all, according to the rules of the mine, miners cannot freely enter other mine shafts.
Secondly, the Dark Gold Rat's methods are quite special, which makes the little Dark Gold Rat extremely valuable. Even the one with poor aptitude is worth dozens of spirit stones.
Moreover, the nests of the Dark Gold Rat are mostly extremely well hidden, making it impossible for ordinary people to discover their existence at will.
To investigate further is even more difficult than climbing to the heavens.
Unless Pei Su possesses some special methods.
For example, advanced methods of investigation or tracking, etc.
Such methods are extremely rare, and ordinary people have no chance of obtaining them.
Pei Su didn't want to reveal this matter casually, so she didn't say anything more.
However, he was willing to explain why the Dark Gold Rat's nest was found in Mine No. 5.
"Fellow Daoist, you may not know this, but I have already joined the Blood Fiend Gang."
"Moreover, I encountered some problems at Mine No. 4, so I used the Blood Fiend Gang's channels to switch to mining at Mine No. 5."
Pei Su said.
"what?"
"Fellow Daoist, you've joined the Blood Fiend Gang?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan'an was immediately shocked.
Based on his understanding of Pei Su, Pei Su was not the kind of cultivator who liked to aid and abet evil.
Moreover, this matter is very risky; there's no guarantee that one day he might die in a gang war.
"yes."
Pei Su let out a heavy sigh.
Furthermore, the reason he joined the Blood Fiend Gang was not a secret, so he explained it in detail.
According to him, he made a small fortune some time ago after discovering several places with abundant ore in the No. 4 mine.
However, as the saying goes, "the taller the tree, the more the wind blows," and he was targeted by the local tyrant, the Muddy Waters Gang.
He was even robbed several times, and was even beaten and seriously injured.
That's why he harbored a deep grudge against the Muddy Waters Gang.
In addition, healing requires a huge amount of resources and greatly affects mining.
At that time, the Blood Fiend Gang was plotting against the Muddy Waters Gang and was secretly recruiting spies.
Therefore, he gritted his teeth and agreed to become a spy for the Blood Fiend Gang, intending to use one wolf to devour another.
During the battle that destroyed the Hunshui Gang several months earlier, he colluded with the Blood Fiend Gang from within and without, cooperating with the Blood Fiend Gang to launch a surprise attack that killed many Hunshui Gang cultivators for revenge.
He also received a considerable amount of rewards from the Blood Fiend Gang.
He also used this method to enter the second level of Qi Refining.
However, he inevitably attracted the attention of other gangs afterwards.
Furthermore, since Mine No. 4 was originally the territory of the Muddy Waters Gang, no one could guarantee whether there were any remnants of the Muddy Waters Gang remaining there.
Therefore, for safety reasons, he came to Mine No. 5.
After all, this place is the core territory of the Blood Fiend Gang, which is relatively safe for him.
"I see. I never imagined that so many things had happened to you, fellow Daoist."
Ye Xuan'an exclaimed in surprise.
"I was also quite shocked when I heard about this."
Zhang Fu sighed from the side.
Immediately afterward, Ye Xuan'an pondered for a while, considering the enormous potential profits involved.
Moreover, he was truly eager for the dark gold and monster materials that Pei Su was willing to sell.
In addition, he had the assistance of two powerful body cultivators, Kuiyi and Kuifang.
Even if they encounter a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator, they are confident in their ability to protect themselves.
Moreover, Pei Su is a decent person.
Therefore, he was not afraid that Pei Su would cause any trouble.
He then agreed to join forces.
"That's excellent."
Pei Su and Zhang Fu were overjoyed upon hearing this.
Immediately afterward, fearing that hesitation might lead to complications, they set off with Ye Xuan'an towards Mine No. 5.
However, during this time, Ye Xuan'an discovered something unexpected.
The Blood Fiend Gang actually gathered a lot of miners to mine on the east side of the mine, claiming that there were many ores there and they needed the miners' help.
"Isn't the east side of the mine a place where the Dark Gold Rats often appear?"
Upon seeing this, Ye Xuan'an was immediately puzzled and asked Pei Su for clarification.
"That's right, they're trying to lure the rats with people."
"The Zhao family's higher-ups have recently been extremely eager for Dark Gold, so they plan to seize the opportunity presented by the Dark Gold Rat's disturbance and intend to have Blood Fiend help them obtain more."
"But dark gold is not so easy to collect, and the dark gold rat is extremely slippery and hides its body, so they thought of the underworld method."
Pei Su held this in utter contempt.
Although he joined the Blood Fiend Gang, his relationship with the gang was mutually beneficial.
Moreover, he never gets involved in the dirty business of the Blood Fiend Gang, for fear of being retaliated against and killed in the middle of the night.
After all, he knew all too well how much hatred could accumulate in the hearts of oppressed miners, and once it reached a certain point, they were capable of anything.
For example, him...
"Using people to lure rats? That's incredibly audacious."
"Why."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan'an's mood immediately became somewhat heavy.
Moreover, with the Zhao family as their backer, this matter is difficult to change.
He could only pray that he wouldn't get involved in such matters.
Zhang Fu was the same.
"By the way, fellow Daoist, don't worry. I know some people in the Blood Fiend Gang. After this matter is settled, I can speak to the Blood Fiend Gang and ask them not to choose you when they are selecting people to lure demons."
"As for the others, I can't help them, after all, that's all I can do."
Pei Su noticed the change in Ye Xuan'an and the other man's expressions and guessed what they were thinking, so she said calmly.
"Thank you very much."
"It's true that having connections in the court makes things much easier."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan'an and the other person were overjoyed and, quite tactfully, gave Pei Su some ore.
……
Soon after.
As the group wandered around the mine, they soon arrived at a very remote branch.
He then used magic to infiltrate deep underground.
They then came to see the dark gold rat's nest.
It was an underground cave, about ten square meters in size. Although it had no spiritual veins, the spiritual energy there was much stronger than in other places. It was clearly a carefully chosen and constructed site.
In addition, there were indeed two first-tier low-grade dark gold rats, two newly born dark gold rat cubs, and dozens of kilograms of dark gold and other such items inside.
Even those two mice have a good foundation, and in the future they may have a good chance of reaching the first-level lower grade like their parents.
"This situation is exactly as Fellow Daoist Pei Su said. It seems Fellow Daoist Pei Su was not lying."
Seeing this from the shadows, Ye Xuan'an chuckled.
