Chapter 1667 - 1661: Little Huang Seeks Spirit Stones
The eagle and Wang Cai can eat an elixir in just a bite or two, because both of them are so large.
But Little Yellow is different. Its small size means it naturally eats more slowly.
Eating an elixir is like nibbling on a cookie, it takes its time.
However, the way it eats is rather cute, and Chen Yang stood watching for a while.
While watching Little Yellow eat, he suddenly realized something.
Little Yellow’s special ability is finding rare mineral veins.
Could it also have a special sense for Spirit Stones?
This thought made Chen Yang suddenly excited!
"Little Yellow, how about coming with me later? I have a task, and if you do well, there’s a reward." Chen Yang suddenly smiled, tempting Little Yellow.
Little Yellow is very simple compared to Wang Cai’s randomness and the eagle’s aloofness.
Its personality is quite normal; it just rarely shows itself.
Chirp chirp.
Upon hearing Chen Yang’s words, it immediately turned its head, chirped twice without hesitation, and agreed with Chen Yang.
"Alright, let’s go, I’ll take you along."
Seeing the little guy’s agreement, he wasted no time and immediately took it out the door.
He put it in the car, started the engine, and sped towards the neighboring county.
In about an hour, he arrived at the mine he visited yesterday with Wang Jingman.
The situation here was exactly the same as yesterday.
It was just a bit late, and most lights in the cardboard houses around the mine were off for the night.
Only a few of the cardboard houses had lights on, doing who knows what.
Though the workers in the cardboard houses were resting, the patrols around the mine had increased rather than decreased.
Chen Yang parked at the mountain top to observe carefully.
He found at least four or five patrol teams around the mine, each team consisting of six people.
This setup is quite challenging for ordinary people.
If it’s to defend against ordinary people, it’s definitely sufficient.
But if it’s against Chen Yang, it’s a bit too simple, with no effect at all.
After clearly observing the situation below and confirming that besides these regular patrols, there were no other people, Chen Yang immediately put Little Yellow, which was lying on the dashboard, into his pocket.
"Little Yellow, don’t move or make a sound."
Little Yellow initially struggled upon entering the pocket.
Upon hearing Chen Yang’s words, it immediately quieted down, lying still in the pocket.
Settling Little Yellow, Chen Yang found a gap between patrols and dashed down from the mountain.
His speed was like the wind, and in the darkness of the night, no one noticed his presence at all.
Last time he came, he was more or less scouting the area.
But today he came with the intention to excavate Spirit Stones.
Yesterday, during his conversation with Wang’s father, he inquired about the mine’s situation.
He found out that this mine belonged to the Gu Family, so all the Spirit Stones there were cultivation resources of the Gu Family.
Knowing this, he came over tonight.
He felt no guilt about plundering the Gu Family’s cultivation resources; if it were another family, he might have felt a bit bad.
But the Gu Family is completely different.
After descending the mountain, he headed straight to the mine tunnel, and with Little Yellow, retraced yesterday’s path to the Spirit Stone mining layer.
Perhaps his visit was a bit late today, so unlike yesterday, he didn’t encounter miners exiting the excavation.
He journeyed unimpeded to the mining layer.
Then he immediately placed Little Yellow from his pocket onto the ground.
Originally, he thought he might need to explain to Little Yellow what he needed to find.
But unexpectedly, Little Yellow has an inexplicable ability for rare mineral veins.
As soon as Chen Yang placed it on the ground, it immediately sensed something.
No need for instructions from Chen Yang, it sniffed the air and moved toward a wall.
Chen Yang naturally understood that Little Yellow had found something.
His heart leaped with joy, and he quickly found a couple of digging tools and followed Little Yellow.
Little Yellow sniffed its way forward.
Eventually, it stopped in front of a wall.
Chirp chirp.
It turned back and chirped at Chen Yang.
"There’s something inside."
Seeing this, Chen Yang said nothing, immediately striking the spot with the tools where Little Yellow indicated.
He was full of vigor.
With Little Yellow there, he was confident; he knew that continuing to dig there would definitely yield results.
Unlike yesterday, when he aimlessly dug, not knowing if there was anything beneath.
With a target, he was motivated, and he quickly dug away with the tools.
In just two to three minutes, he’d dug half a meter deep.
Then there was a clang as his tools hit something.
Hearing that sound, he was instantly thrilled!
He was very familiar with that sound; it meant he’d hit a Spirit Stone!
Setting the tool down, he examined the spot.
Indeed, a Spirit Stone!
And from the size, it was similar to the one Wang’s father gave yesterday!
"Little Yellow, you’re amazing, digging such a large one on the first try!"
While clearing the dirt off the stone, Chen Yang couldn’t help but praise Little Yellow.
With Little Yellow, the efficiency of digging improved significantly.
In just a few minutes, they’d unearthed such a large Spirit Stone; if they continued, the harvest would be substantial.
Though excited and happy, Chen Yang didn’t waste much time.
Being within someone else’s mine, it was imperative to work fast to avoid unnecessary complications.
He quickly cleaned the excavated Spirit Stone, placing it in his pocket.
Then he immediately picked up the tools and prepared to dig further.
Chirp chirp.
Right then, Little Yellow had found another location for him.
It stood in front of another section of wall, making sounds toward Chen Yang.
Chen Yang knew from the look that Little Yellow had another discovery, so he quickly carried the tools over.
"Coming."
Once nearby, Chen Yang pointed at the spot Little Yellow was standing and asked: "Little Yellow, is it here?"
Chirp chirp.
"Alright, move aside, I’m going to start digging."
With confirmation, Chen Yang immediately swung into action with the tools.
This time, just like before, after only a few digs, there was a find!
A similar-sized Spirit Stone lay quietly amidst the excavated dirt.
Chen Yang quickly cleared it, then casually tossed it into his pocket.
