Until Du Fan walked out of the Central Army's tent, his expression was still a little dazed, as if he had just had a dream.

"Master, that Elder Wu doesn't seem to be very reliable. Are we going to carry out the tasks assigned by him?" Baili Qiu followed and said to Du Fan. His expression was not very natural, with strangeness and entanglement.

"General Wu is the supreme commander of the Third Battalion. As his subordinates, we must strictly implement every order he gave. Have you heard of military orders Rushan?" Du Fan suddenly looked solemn, looked at Baili Qiu, and asked seriously.

"I heard that it means that military orders are as unshakable as mountains. The orders issued by superiors must be implemented and must not be disobeyed or questioned... However, this should be targeted at the mortal world. Also, the task given to us by Elder Wu is too..."

Du Fan suddenly interrupted: "Since you know what military order Rushan means, stop talking nonsense!"

...

Hundreds of thousands of miles away from the main city of Sanying, more than a dozen small villages are scattered on the vast plains. The people living here are ordinary mortals. They mainly make a living by farming and grazing, and live an ordinary and simple life. In addition, there is no cultivator involved and far away from spiritual mines, so they have not been affected by the war and are quiet and peaceful everywhere.

One day, two young men with good temperament came here. One looked ordinary, around thirty years old, and the other was much more handsome than the former. In his early twenties, it was Du Fan and Baili Qiu who came from the Third Battalion.

"You are responsible for several nearby villages. I'll go to the southwest. Let's compare to see who spends the least money and recruits the most people. But I agreed to bet on 100,000 spirit stones and settle the score clearly. If anyone loses, he will not be able to deny it at that time." Du Fan looked around and said lightly.

Baili Qiu was speechless for a while and lowered his voice: "Master, I don't have 100,000 spirit stones, I have only a few thousand on my body..."

"If you lose, you owe it first. If you don't have it now, you will have it later." Du Fan waved his hand indifferently.

At this time, many people in the village had noticed Du Fan and Bai Li Qiu, two foreign guests, and they all looked at novelty. Some simple and brave people began to point fingers at them and whispered something. There were even a group of children who were not afraid of the world, chasing and fighting around the two, laughing and joyful around them...

Baili Qiu sighed, faced the strange eyes of everyone, walked to the most densely populated place, and shouted to the scalp: "Hehe, the villagers have paid attention, recruit miners, one tael of silver for three days, daily wages, food and accommodation, car picking up and dropping off..."

boom!

When he heard that three taels of silver cost a day, the crowd suddenly exploded, and Bailichou was surrounded by people in an instant.

"Is it true that three taels of silver a day?" asked a strong man.

"Where is it? When will the construction start?" someone spoke again.

"Do you have any requirements? Do you think I can do it?" A strong aunt squeezed out of the crowd and rushed in.

"Is there any meat to eat on the construction site?" a little fat man asked silly.

"Brother, you are young and probably not married yet. I have a little girl in my family, who is eighteen years old..."

A village that was originally peaceful and peaceful seemed to have broken a flood in the dike. In an instant, people were crowded and smoky.

Du Fan stood outside, watched the excitement for a while with interest, and couldn't help but sigh: "Who said that my apprentice is introverted, born autistic, and not good at speaking, that is not forced to do so. As long as you let go and take the step in your heart, no one can do it."

"However, he is still too young. After all, he is not well-educated and lacks experience and needs to be trained." Du Fan smiled, his body flashed a few times, and he came to another village.

"Old man, please ask, where is your village chief?"

...

On a country road, Du Fan and Baili Qiu each rode a horse and galloped in front of him.

Behind the two, dozens of carriages followed closely, with shadows rising from wherever they passed.

"Master, my disciple still doesn't understand why that Elder Wu asked us to recruit so many ordinary people? Isn't mining spiritual mines done by cultivators? And this also involves a war at the cultivation world. If you are not careful, these ordinary people will instantly turn into ashes." Baili Qiu was puzzled. He held it in a long time and finally asked at this time.

Du Fan replied while whipping, "You must first know a common sense. Because the top-grade spirit stone veins have just been unearthed, they contain very strong fields around them, which has an unimaginable suppression effect on cultivators.

If a cultivator is within the spiritual mine area, he will not be able to mobilize any magic power. Cultivators in this state are basically no different from ordinary people. Of course, except for physical cultivation, but how many physical cultivation are there in the entire third camp?"

"What, there is a field to suppress cultivators around the spirit stone ore veins?" Baili Qiu was surprised and then said, "Where are you, Master, who is in the field, and you will be suppressed?"

"This is naturally. The spiritual mine field was born in heaven and earth, and contains the supreme power of heaven, especially the top-grade spiritual stone veins. The power of the field is extremely terrifying. Not to mention me, even if it is the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage or even the old monster in the God Transformation Stage, the same is true, and the human power will sometimes be exhausted.

Therefore, using cultivators to mine spiritual mines is a waste, and it is most suitable for ordinary people to do this."

"What are the cultivators doing?" Baili Qiu asked.

"I don't know other camps, but in our third camp, the main task of cultivators is to disturb the enemy and set up the mist formation. Of course, some cultivators are responsible for mining the mineral veins, because the output of spiritual ore on the surface is all from their hands, and it is impossible to have no such thing as there." Du Fan said.

"Master, what does the spiritual ore production mean on the surface?" Baili Chou was puzzled.

"Didn't General Wu say that 10% of the spirit ore mined in each camp can be kept by itself, and the remaining 90% must be handed over to the Southwest Fortress as much as possible. These spirit ore are on the surface.

Why is it said to be on the surface? Because every cultivator on our side has relevant restrictions on the war merit card, and will clearly record the number of spirit stones to be handled. The inspection team will clearly see it at a glance when it is regularly inspected and cannot make fakes.

Rather than saying that this is a method of recording, it is a means of supervision to prevent someone from embezzling spirit stones privately.

In other words, the spirit stones mined by our cultivators are all public funds and we cannot embezzle them privately, but the spirit stones mined by ordinary people are different. The more they mine, the more General Wu can get."

Finally, Du Fan concluded: "General Wu's intention to recruit ordinary people as miners is: First, save the combat power of cultivators, use good swords on the blade, and second, restrain the spirit stones. Do you understand so?" (To be continued.)
