Chapter 240: Waste

In Bai Mo's opinion, the various knowledge summarized and categorized on the Cultivation Encyclopedia are things that the cultivators of their generation have already verified at great cost in parallel worlds. It is completely unnecessary to waste hundreds of years in the entire world on these matters.
This is a tremendous waste of intelligent beings.
Regarding parallel worlds, Bai Mo has had some ideas.
从社会的角度，倘若超凡者能够主动携带信息，进行一次又一次的穿越，而每一次的穿越，都能加速整个社会的思考与研发，最后或许就能形成技术奇点，左脚踩右脚上天？
而从个体超凡的角度，星君们或许可以将一个又一个的平行世界化作自身资粮，通过一遍一遍的循环，最终完美化自己的道路。
These two ideas are experiments that Bai Mo wants to try in the new world.
……
"Come here." Bai Mo gently hooked his right index finger.
"Did you call us?" Zhenzi was a bit puzzled.
Bai Mo didn't answer.
Instead, a telephone seemed to float from behind Zhenzi, just like in a supernatural drama.
While floating, the telephone was also inputting a phone number on its own.
Compared to physical activity, Bai Mo is more accustomed to using his nearly instantaneous telekinesis.
"Is it Ding Man?"
When Bai Mo picked up the phone, the call was connected right on time, not a second late.
"Yes, may I ask who is this... Are you Mirage Chief?!"
At first, Ding Man thought it was a client calling him so late, and he was a bit confused. It took him a few seconds to react.
"Yes."
"What are the instructions, Daoist?"
Although their aptitude is not very good, the three of them were fortunate enough to have innate cultivation aptitude. After spending some time, they successfully embarked on the path of cultivation. Then they "voluntarily" installed the Spiritual Energy Treasure System, experiencing the wonders of the cultivation world.
这么一通下来，瘦身成功的丁满，对神秘的蜃宗道长更是充满了敬畏。
十分钟减肥五十斤这种事，吹牛逼广告都不敢乱拍，自己居然亲身经历了。
"Later, you will receive an address. Arrange a batch of simple manual mining tools and supplies to be sent there, about a thousand sets."
"Manual mining tools? Is it purely manpower digging?" Dingman was a little confused.
Although life is not valued in the Emerald City, with the development of technology and the depletion of shallow mineral veins, the proportion of machine investment in nearby mining has also been increasing. Translated: "Although life is not valued in the Emerald City, with the development of technology and the depletion of shallow mineral veins, the proportion of machine investment in nearby mining has also been increasing."
毕竟矿工只是人类，力量上限永远没办法跟机器比。
深埋地下的矿石，想要挖上来的话，动辄需要以吨为单位的力量钻探。
Human life may be cheap, but the flesh and bones cannot produce the impact force of a drill weighing tens of tons.
This is no longer a matter of price, it requires the use of an iron fist!
"Yes, manpower is enough, anyway, we won't be able to dig for many days."
"Ah?"
Dingman became even more puzzled as he listened.
Are there actually mines that extract resources on a "daily" basis? Normal mines operate on an annual basis, right?
That seems incredibly wasteful.
At this point, Ding Man's subconscious mind still did not think in the direction of fantasy.
"I'll give you twelve hours," Bai Mo didn't explain much, just continued to command.
"Half a day should be enough," Ding Man pondered for a moment before accepting the task. As a jade merchant, he still had a good network of connections in the mining industry.
As long as they were willing to pay, these tools could be easily purchased.
On the contrary, if Bai Mo wants heavy mining equipment, it will truly be a "one turnip, one hole" situation; everything will have to be custom-made.
……
"You two, put on your clothes and come with me." After hanging up the phone, Bai Mo called out to the two "power banks" behind him.
装有剩余灵石的箱子也跟着白墨飞起。

虽然时值深夜，但别无选择的二女，也只能不情不愿地打着呵欠跟上。
她们还不像白墨那样，已经可以通过高阶的精神冥想方式取代睡眠。
In order to squeeze out as much time as possible for cultivation, the Terra Empire has developed a bunch of these meditation techniques, specifically designed for power rollers to push themselves to the limit.
因为睡觉太浪费时间了。
三人租了一辆越野车。
一旁跟随负责租车业务的服务生，用羡慕的眼神看着白墨，有钱人的快乐就是这样朴实无华，半夜三更带着两个白衣飘飘的美女游车。
"Can you drive?" Bai Mo looked at the two women.
Li Hua Lan shook her head.
"I can, but I don't have a driver's license..." Zhenzi said halfway, realizing that this was Fei Cui City, a lawless place where the wealthy could do as they pleased. As long as they weren't afraid of accidents, anyone could drive. Translation:
贞子开车，李华岚副驾驶，白墨则一个人坐到了后排。
这个坐位搭配把服务生看愣了一下。
白墨倒是没有关心这些有的没的，他的右手把玩着一块从丁满那儿带出来的翡翠。
微微流动着白光的食指跟拇指正在不断重塑着它的形状，让它看起来越来越像是一个巨大的玉质钱币。
“财能通神。”
……
Following the address given by Bai Mo, Zhenzi drove along the bumpy road. It was not that her driving skills were bad, but the road became increasingly remote, with poorly maintained dirt paths filled with potholes and bumps.
There are no street lights in the desolate wilderness, and driving relies solely on car headlights, making it quite challenging.
"Call me when there are still five kilometers left to the destination," Bai Mo said to the driver, Zhenshi, while gently stroking the jade pendant in his hand. Translation:
"No problem..."
Although the car is quite bumpy, the runes etched by Bai Mo on the jade coin are flawless.
一层又一层，直至密密麻麻的符文覆盖了整个玉钱。
然后又是各种神乎其技的炼器手法，看得正在透过车里后视镜偷偷张望的李华岚目不转睛，屏息凝神。
人类的手，真的可以做到这么复杂的操作？
白墨的手指，都已经出现了残影。
……
“前辈，还有五公里就到了。”最终还是贞子打破了车内的沉默。
“好。”伴随白墨的一个回复，坐在车子前面的二女，感觉自己突然像是重新回到了不着片缕的状态。
Or, more deeply, it is an illusion of being in the hospital, undergoing an X-ray.
That kind of explicit and undeniable sensation.
Baimo temporarily overclocks his divine consciousness.
His eyes are completely covered by a mass of white, with veins popping out at the corners.
短短三秒钟的时间，白墨用神念完成了方圆十公里的扫描。
“果然，被我猜对了。”
他自言自语道。
白墨收回了超频状态，轻轻拍了拍贞子肩膀。
"Park here."
"Ah?"
"You guys wait here, I'll go deal with a few tails." ()
