Chapter 785: Sand Gold
After moving through the desert for another day.
The fatty’s sandstorm didn’t reach them.
Their luck this time was pretty good and they didn’t meet a beast wave.
Zhi, zhi, zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx that had been hidden in Ye Yu Xi’s sleeve the entire time popped its head out.
Un? It’s hungry?
Ye Yu Xi looked at the little minx on her arm.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx didn’t come out because it was hungry. After happily calling out to Ye Yu Xi, it fell to the ground and quickly ran forward.
“Follow it.” Ye Yu Xi saw the little minx’s actions. Could it be that it found something else again?
Zhi, zhi!
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx went over half a sand dune and finally stopped inside a sand valley.
Un?
This place……
Ye Yu Xi looked around, there was even sandstone here? Moreover, it wasn’t buried!
Sha, sha, sha.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx dug in the sand and created a small hole after a while.
But the viscosity of sand was far less than soil, so the more the little minx dug, the surrounding sand kept falling back into the hole. No matter how hard the little minx tried, the sand in the hole didn’t decrease.
Sha, sha, sha.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx anxiously dug into the sand.
Hua la——
The small sand dunes around it collapsed and instantly buried the Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx inside.
Zhi, zhi, zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx’s little white head popped out and it shook it, shaking off the sand on its fur.
Zhi, zhi, zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx pitifully begged Ye Yu Xi for help.
“Truly dumb.” Long Xiao Pang muttered. He walked over and grabbed the little minx’s head to pull it out.
Zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx rubbed up against Ye Yu Xi as its purple eyes pitifully looked at the same hole.
“There should be something under this.” Bai Jin Yi looked at the little minx.
Ye Yu Xi nodded.
Hong!
With a bit of spiritual energy, the sand was blown away.
Under the control of Ye Yu Xi’s spiritual energy, the surrounding sand didn’t fill the hole up.
Zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx’s eyes lit up as it jumped into the hole.
Ka, ka.
Its sharp fangs was gnawing at something in the hole.
“Yi? This……Master, it seems to be Sand Gold.” Hei Feng Tian Zong looked at the yellow thing in the hole.
Sand Gold?
Everyone was stunned.
The Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx gnawed at it, but it seemed like this thing wasn’t suited to its taste. It jumped out of the hole and its cries became softer.
Seeing the little minx’s appearance, Ye Yu Xi suddenly had a thought. According to the ancient books, the Purple Spiritual Flashing Lightning Minx could detect rare metals through its sharp sense of smell. The little minx being able to detect things isn’t false, but it seemed like it couldn’t grasp the quality of the metal.
Is it because it was still undeveloped?
Hei Feng Tian Zong walked up beside the hole and took the thing from inside.
A piece of “sand” the size of a watermelon was in Hei Feng Tian Zong’s hand and sand kept falling out of it.
“Brother Tian Zong, you’re saying this is the Sand Gold?” The fatty looked at the piece of sand filled with holes and sand kept falling out of the holes, gradually making the Sand Gold reveal its true form.
“Un.” Hei Feng Tian Zong nodded, “One of the main ingredients in making gold coins is Sand Gold.”
“Ye Wen, when you asked around a few days ago, did you learn if the people of the oasis mine here?” Ye Yu Xi suddenly asked.
Ye Wen nodded, “There are caravans sending crucial supplies each month.”
“Has the oasis been hit by the robbers?” Ye Yu Xi kept asking.
“I’ve never of that.”
That isn’t right!
A serious look flashed in Ye Yu Xi’s eyes. If those bandits wanted money, their first target should be the oasis!
