Chapter 324: Treasure-Hunting Beast, Chaotic Figure, and Plot Against Su Mu
Su Mu briefly introduced his family to the Iron Eater, and from now on the Iron Eater will be considered a member of the small courtyard.
That day, when Su Mu returned home, he found the Iron Eater in the soil at the gate of the yard, digging the soil with his hands, as if digging something.
Seeing this, Su Mu came over, and the Iron Eater pointed under the soil.
Is there something under here?
Su Mu took out a shovel and dug down along the small pit dug by the Iron Eater.
After digging about half a meter, the shovel dug up something hard and made a sound.
"What is this?"
Soon, Su Mu dug out a large piece of black iron.
After lifting it up, he found that this piece of iron was very heavy!
It was one meter high, irregular in shape, and purple-black on the surface. Su Mu scratched it with a knife and found that the texture was very solid.
In the past few years when Su Mu patrolled the river, he often picked up some iron ore or iron, but this was the first time he picked up such a large piece of complete iron.
The black iron picked up in the river is of very good quality and is very suitable for making weapons, but Su Mu does not have the leisure to forge weapons. Otherwise, with his own inventory, he can make many top-level magic weapons.
The iron-eating beast stared at the black iron and almost drooled.
"Since you found it, I'll give it to you."
"Eat it."
As soon as the voice fell, the iron-eating beast pounced on it and took a big bite of the black iron!
The black iron, which was obviously very solid, made a chewing sound like eating an apple in front of the iron-eating beast.
That night, Su Mu, as usual, gave Nannan a lecture for an hour, and then began to meditate and practice.
Started to use favor points to add points, add some skills, and consolidate the strength of cultivation.
Looking at the iron-eating beast guarding the door, recalling its performance in digging black iron today, Su Mu had a bold idea.
The next day.
Su Mu went out for patrol and took the little iron-eating beast with him.
[Congratulations, you have cleared a lot of driftwood and debris, Favor Points +300]
[Congratulations, you have cleared the tributary and maintained normal circulation, Favor Points +1000]
[Congratulations, you have repaired the gap in the dam and ensured the stability of the water area, Favor Points +800]
Today's luck is really good. In just a few hours, more than 2,000 Favor Points have been credited.
Su Mu sat on a big rock to rest, but the little iron-eating beast kept looking in one direction, looking for something.
"What's wrong?" Su Mu asked.
The iron-eating beast pointed to the bushes in front of him, babbling for a long time, and Su Mu roughly understood what it meant.
"Is there a treasure?"
"Lead the way, let's go and see."
In this way, Su Mu, led by the iron-eating beast, walked into a relatively flat tributary of the water area and walked on the soft soil. Although it was on the shore, there was a lot of water in the soil, and it was about to form a swamp.
Soon, the iron-eating beast suddenly stopped and pointed at the ground.
Seeing this, Su Mu rolled up his sleeves, took out a shovel, and started digging.
Because the soil in this section is relatively soft, it is not difficult to dig. After more than a dozen breaths, Su Mu has dug a pit one meter deep and five meters wide.
But he didn't find anything buried underneath.
"Really?"
"It doesn't look like there is any treasure."
Su Mu panted.
He continued to dig, and finally when he dug two meters, the soil became solid. The last shovel went down and dug a gap. A majestic and pure energy gushed out, glowing with white light.
"What is this?!"
A vein was dug out two meters deep on the ground!
But it is not known whether it is a dragon vein or a spiritual mineral vein.
Su Mu continued to dig and picked up a piece of ore. This ore was similar to amber, crystal clear, without any impurities. Holding it in the palm of your hand, you can feel an extremely pure energy, which spreads along the palm, along the tendons, and throughout the body, making people feel extremely transparent and comfortable.
This is not an ordinary spiritual stone, let alone a top-grade spiritual stone. It should be out of the category of "spiritual stone" and is many grades higher than spiritual stone.
This kind of ore is the first time Su Mu has seen it.
However, it doesn't matter what it is. It is enough to know that this ore can be used for cultivation and is very precious.
Su Mu dug for three or four hours and dug out all the veins. This vein is very small, a small vein. A total of three thousand crystals were dug out, making a lot of money.
"Here, this is for you."
Su Mu threw ten crystals directly to the iron-eating beast.
It also ate them all in a few seconds, eating with relish and very satisfied.
It seems that the food that the iron-eating beast likes to eat is iron, ore, crystal and the like.
This is good, it is easy to feed.
Otherwise, with the appetite of the iron-eating beast, the herbs in the vegetable garden are probably not enough for it to eat alone.
"Well done!"
Su Mu patted the little iron-eating beast on the shoulder and praised.
It seems that picking up this kind of iron-eating beast is really picking up a treasure.
A natural treasure-hunting beast!
Walking, the iron-eating beast brought Su Mu to a new place.
After finding the location, Su Mu started digging directly.
This time, although no ore vein was dug out, a piece of black iron that was taller than Su Mu was dug out, and the quality was very high.
Today I dug up a vein, harvested a large piece of black iron, and earned 3,000 favor points. I went home with a lot of money.
Since I picked up this iron-eating beast, my luck has really improved a lot.
However, although the iron-eating beast is not very smart, sometimes. This kind of stupidity is actually a kind of honesty, at least very loyal.
Su Mu doesn't like that kind of self-righteous character.
At the same time, in the heavens and the worlds, there is a certain void and chaotic world.
In this chaotic world, there is no day or night, no sunshine or moonlight, and all the laws no longer exist here, as if even time is still and chaotic.
In the empty space, three extremely tall chaotic figures stand, and their faces cannot be seen clearly.
"How are you preparing?"
An old voice echoed, sweeping up countless fragments of laws. Just a voice made the space begin to distort.
"Almost."
"You can make a second attempt." Another voice sounded, the voice was ethereal, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
"Let's put our game aside for now. We must kick him out,"
"He is the only big variable."
The third voice sounded.
"After the last test, how much control can you see over the long river of time?"
"I can't see clearly."
"So, we have to test him a second time."
"This time, the scale must be larger than the last time, otherwise it will be difficult to force him to reveal some of his cards."
Three chaotic figures stood opposite each other and talked.
PS: My brother got married these two days, so I was too busy to touch the computer. I just got home today and stayed up late to write a chapter.
Tomorrow, I will resume normal updates and speed up the pace.
