Chapter 1184: Golden Country
Ansir nodded and asked Sandstone to pass the information to the other hunter teams scattered nearby.
Alva saw that Fengying didn't quite understand, so he patiently explained.
"If the gold fell into the gap in the form of debris, there is nothing to say, it just means that Xuanhuilong has passed by here.
But this strand of gold seeped in, what does this mean?"
He was a good teacher, trying to trigger Fengying's independent thinking. Fengying thought very hard, but the direction seemed a little wrong.
"It means. It means that there is gold in Xuanhuilong's sweat?"
". It's a very creative idea, but that's not what I mean." Alva was a little stuck by Fengying's answer. After reorganizing the language, he continued to explain:
"Only gold melted at high temperature can flow into such a narrow gap, but this brings another problem.
Gold cannot be dripped into the gap so accurately, so why is there only gold left in such a small gap?"
Fengying, who was good at face, was embarrassed to say that she didn't know, and thought for a long time holding her head.
It was not until Jean Gale and his team found the gold remnants in the cracks of the rocks not far away that she suddenly realized something.
"Because the other gold was taken away? Only these stuck in the cracks were left?"
"That's it." Alva smiled with relief.
An Xier snorted coldly, "Finally not stupid enough."
"So, so Xuan Huilong will carry gold everywhere? Then can we not dig gold quietly?!"
"It may be like this, keep moving forward, the specific situation can only be judged after seeing it with your own eyes." An Xier glanced at Feng Ying.
The main purpose of him letting Feng Ying in debt was to make her feel nervous, otherwise this guy's character would easily be lazy and slack.
But now it seems that she seems to have gone astray.
From working hard to make money to greedy
Forget it, if there is a chance this time, let her balance the account first, otherwise this guy is full of money.
The Golden Edge team continued to move forward, and the other three teams as flanks followed.
The hunters continued to move forward in this seemingly endless earth vein corridor, spending several hours exploring nearly 20 kilometers.
Still no gains worth mentioning.
Just as Ansir was considering whether to let everyone stop exploring, rest on the spot for a while, and recover their strength.
They noticed something strange.
The lack of light and the slightly damp earth vein corridor were originally a bit chilly.
Although it did not affect the hunters' actions, it also gave people a feeling of discomfort like walking outside in a single layer of clothes in the late autumn night.
But now, the tunnel seems to have become warmer.
It's like going from late autumn to early spring? And as they continue to move forward, the temperature continues to rise.
The light emitted by the guide insects flying in the air is getting brighter.
All signs show that they are getting closer and closer to their goal.
Anxier gave the signal to assemble. After the other teams gathered around, he said, "Rest in place, eat, and check the status of armor and weapons.
We are very close to the target. I emphasize again that we should be prepared for battle, but do not take the initiative to start a battle, and act as secretly as possible.
After discovering the target, keep a safe distance and do not do anything that may anger the other party. Do you understand?"
The hunters nodded one after another, taking turns to be alert, eat, and adjust their status.
After more than half an hour, the hunters who had finished resting continued to move forward.
The temperature in the air continued to rise, from the initial chills that made people's hands and feet exhale white steam, to the later coolness and comfort, and then to the current warmth, and even a little bit of heat.
After turning a corner with a large angle, Feng Ying, who was walking at the front of the team, suddenly stopped and widened her eyes.
Anxier, who also found something strange, immediately gestured to let the other teams behind their team be alert and hide.
Gold appeared on the ground in front of them.
It was not the kind of scene where one or two pieces of gold fell in the middle of the road, but large pieces, like puddles accumulated on uneven ground on rainy days, spread everywhere.
"This, this. These are all gold?!!" Feng Ying stuttered.
But fortunately, she remembered to lower her voice and did not shout.
An Xier squinted and stared at the gold on the ground for a while, and suddenly said to Alva: "Try to turn off the light."
Alva turned off the kerosene lamp used for lighting.
The light around suddenly dimmed, but this was only temporary. After the eyes adapted for a while, they could find that the gold attached to the ground was emitting a hazy light.
Gold itself does not emit light. These golds seem to be mixed with some special ingredients. Although the glimmer emitted is not bright, it is enough for human eyes to see things when gathered together.
After the illumination of the fire was extinguished, everyone found that the gold was not only attached to the ground.
The surrounding rock walls, and even the top of the cave above, were dotted with a lot of glittering gold. Everywhere you looked, it was all golden.
This was the ‘Golden Land of the Earth’ that only appeared in the legends of the Qimian tribe.
At this moment, even Anshiel, who had the least desire for money, couldn’t help but sigh that there was actually such a land in the world that was literally “full of gold”.
Gail, who suspected that he was hallucinating, slapped himself directly, "Neh, my childhood dream has come true? All the gold here must be shipped out."
"Then the gold will become worthless." Ansel replied casually.
"You are so boring!"
Alva came to a pool of gold that had solidified into an irregular shape, stroked it, and looked at it for a moment.
He said uncertainly: "These golds are still slightly hot. These should be the source of the temperature rise in the earth vein corridor.
Is the gold in the Golden Country actually in this way of melting and condensing? No wonder the residual gold was found in the cracks of the rocks before.
Wait?!"
Alva suddenly remembered something and shuddered. He didn't care to lower his voice and shouted to the hunters gathered behind him: "Turn off the lights, invisibility cloak!"
As soon as he finished speaking, heavy footsteps came from the depths of the Golden Country.
The hunters' faces changed drastically. They turned off the lights as quickly as possible, put on invisibility cloaks, and looked for hiding places.
However, the team of hunters and compilers, a total of more than 20 people, could not hide completely.
Just when some hunters had decided to "take the second best" and put their hands on the handles of their weapons, ready for battle.
Alva hurriedly said to the hunters: "Calm down, don't show hostility, don't block the middle of the road, squat down close to the rock walls on both sides!"
Some hunters still had some doubts, and Ansir hurriedly shouted in a low voice, "Do it!"
Everyone put on invisibility cloaks, came to the rock wall and crouched down, counting the rapid heartbeats in their ears, praying that the approaching giant shadow would not discover them.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and finally, a pair of curved giant horns that seemed to be made of pure gold protruded from the corner of the tunnel in front.
The majestic creature wearing a huge golden "dress" came into everyone's sight.
Its steps were slow, like the dance steps of a lady in a gorgeous dress, gorgeous and elegant.
The golden pupils swept over the people huddled under the rock wall. The two heavy gazes made everyone realize that their hiding was meaningless.
The hunters' nerves were stretched to the limit, and they were all ready to deal with the attack.
However, the golden dragon just withdrew its sight and walked past them carelessly.
It was like they were just some stones on the roadside.
Ps.
In the official setting, the Golden Country is not a certain place. When the Xuanhui Dragon migrates, it will take the gold away, so the Golden Country actually moves with the Xuanhui Dragon.
(So much gold cannot be taken away at once, so it has to be moved back and forth again and again, so you have been wandering underground doing this?)
