Chapter 28 028. Gold Mine and Salamander!
Xiong Bao knew he was in the wrong and wanted to carry Moses on his back on the way home.

But Moses disagreed.

"Why are you carrying anything so early in the morning? You should carry it later before going out."

Xiong Bao thought about it and agreed.

In the wind and snow, a man and a bear set out on their journey home.

Not long after, Mercer and Xiong Bao arrived home.

Breakfast was already prepared by then.

The two of them and the bear happily finished their breakfast. Kuleha then took out an insulated plastic storage box with holes in it. "Take this with you. If you find a salamander, use this to store it."

"okay."

Messer agreed, and soon Xiong Bao came over after washing the dishes.

Everything is ready, and the two people and the bear go out.

After a long time, Kuleha put on a furry fur coat.

It was the one that Moses had given me before.

In the snow.

Xiong Bao started running forward, with Messer and Kuleha sitting on Xiong Bao's back, Messer sitting in front and Kuleha sitting behind him.

A bit crowded.

But it's acceptable.

Under Kuleha's guidance.

After crossing the Magnetic Drum Mountain in the east, we arrived at the foot of a mountain covered with ice and snow.

There are huge, rugged rocks covered with ice and snow everywhere.

"Okay, stop."

Reaching out and patting Xiong Bao, Kuleha jumped off Xiong Bao's body.

In front of me was a narrow angle formed by the collapse of two huge rocks, and inside the angle was a dark cave.

Kuleha said, "It's a little dark inside. I'll go ahead. You two should watch your step."

As she spoke, Kuleha walked in with a flashlight. The cave was so narrow that she had to walk sideways to get in.

Very narrow at first,
This is a gap leading to the underground. There are few footholds, but fortunately you can use your hands to support yourself on the rock walls on both sides and go all the way down.

The gap is slanted downwards.

Kuleha held a flashlight in her mouth and walked down nimbly under the light.

Moses followed closely.

Behind him, Xiong Bao also followed with his arms supported.

Until a hundred meters down.

"We're almost at the bottom. Just jump down. It's only one or two meters high. Don't be afraid." Kuleha said.

A few seconds later, Kuleha disappeared in front of him, and then his feet felt empty, and Messer fell down with him.

As soon as he landed, Messier jumped forward reflexively.

At the same time, a heavy object fell down.

Mercer turned his head and wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

"Ouch!" Xiong Bao screamed in pain, obviously he fell on his butt.

I looked around and saw a tunnel that was two meters high and one meter wide, and I didn't know how long it was. Kuleha was two meters ahead.

Seeing Kuleha shining the flashlight at herself,

Messi smiled and followed. Seeing Messi left, Xiong Bao also hurried to follow.

The tunnel is very difficult to walk in. Some places are high and some places are narrow. The terrain is getting lower and lower. But as you go further and further, the humidity in the air around you becomes more and more obvious.

I walked about one kilometer.

Turned a corner.

The two men and the bear walked out of the difficult tunnel.

The surroundings suddenly became bright.

A vast underground space appeared.

Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!Tick ​​tock!

Drops of water kept dripping from above my head.

Mercer looked up and saw that the ceiling of the cave, which was more than ten meters high, was covered with stalactites of various sizes with pointed tops, and the damp ground around it was also covered with sparse stone pillars.

The surrounding space suddenly became brighter.

Colorful.

Very beautiful and spectacular.

The smooth stalactites constantly reflect the natural light that shines in from the multiple tiny vents overhead.

"Stalactite cave?"

Mercer said, "I didn't expect there would be such a place on Magnetic Drum Island."

"Hehehe~" Kuleha laughed happily and said, "I discovered this place when I was bored. It's an underground cave. Because it's underground, the temperature is much higher than above.

There's also a lot of vegetation, small fish and shrimps along the underground river here, and if nothing unexpected happens, there will also be salamanders."

“And this stalactite”

Click, click, click!

Click, click, click!

Messier and Kuleha turned their heads and saw that Xiong Bao was holding a bamboo-shaped stalactite and chewing it.

The food was "juicy and full of debris".

Mercer held his forehead with one hand and said helplessly: "Those are stalactites, stalagmites, although they are still called stalagmites, but they are not bamboo shoots.

Foodie. "

"It's a glutton."

Kuleha cursed with a smile, then continued what she had just left unsaid: ". Moreover, this stalactite is also a medicinal herb, and its efficacy is quite powerful.

Just eat it, it won’t make you sick anyway.

Just treat it as a calcium supplement.”

Xiong Bao made a "嘤" sound, broke off a pointed piece of stalactite and handed it to Moses, indicating that Moses should eat it too, as it was delicious.

Moses waved his hand and said, "I won't eat it. My teeth are not in good condition. Please ask Doctor Doriel to eat it."

Kuleha's face twitched, and she glared at Messer: "You are so filial, you drive me crazy."

"Hehe!" Messer shifted his gaze and turned to look around. In a few seconds, Messer walked to a corner.

Looking at the large dark red vine-like stones with blood-like color oozing out of them, Messer scraped some "juice" with his right index finger and tasted it on his tongue.

"Hmm, a smell of rust. Pah, pah, pah!"

"Xiongbao, come here~, there are delicious food here." Mercer said to Xiongbao who was chewing on the stalactites.

Upon hearing this, the latter immediately came over and put his head forward. Mercer said:

"This is iron ore. Eat it. Remember to refine the alloy for me. I need it."

Xiong Baoxiong's face froze, and he stared at Messier with his bear eyes. He roared "Woo~" and stepped back.

He doesn't want to eat and vomit again.

Mercer grabbed Xiong Bao's ear and said, "Your objection is ineffective. Once we have refined a high-quality alloy, we can upgrade your equipment and develop your Devil Fruit abilities."

Seeing Xiong Bao was hesitant, Messier made a big move: "Work hard and I will take you out for a good meal in the future. Otherwise, I will definitely not take you with me when I go out in the future."

Now, Xiong Bao was a little nervous. He nodded quickly, grabbed the ground with his claws, opened his big mouth and bit it.

Crack, crack.

The chewed "vines" were scattered everywhere.

Kuleha took a look, smiled and said nothing, then walked alone towards a clump of vegetation beside an underground river not far away.

Messier took off the plastic storage box tied to his body, patted Xiong Bao's head, and followed him.

As the saying goes, you catch rabbits while you're at it.

Moses did the same.
He gently kicked the vegetation under his feet, and at the same time, his observation skills were activated, sensing the surrounding air.

"What did you sense?" Kuleha asked. "Is the aura too dense?"

Mercer nodded. "I didn't expect there would be so many small animals in a place like this. Although most of them are in this river."

In front of me is a deep blue underground lake, which is crescent-shaped with faint ripples on the surface.

Some yellow-brown mosses and lush aquatic vegetation grow by the lake.

From time to time, small silver-white fish the size of a palm would jump out of the lake.

Looks delicate and cute.

I just don't know how it tastes.

"Huh? This is..." Suddenly,
Kuleha's somewhat surprised voice came, and Messer turned his head to look, only to see that she had moved a large stone and was looking under the stone.

"What's up?"

Moses came over, took the big stone from her hand and threw it aside.

"This is."

Under the boulder is a layer of rock, which is now exposed to the air, revealing a lump of crystals with a faint golden color.

“Is this a gold mine?”

"That should be right, Xiong Bao, come here." Kuleha waved to Xiong Bao, who was chewing on the iron ore, "Come and eat here."

I am a brick.

Move wherever needed.

If Bao Xiong could speak, he would definitely sing this line.

Although he couldn't speak, he still had to listen to what Kuleha said.

He swallowed the ore in his mouth, ran over, and took a closer look. It was still ore.

Xiongmian was embarrassed, but he also got into the state.

He lay on the ground and started chewing.

"You've refined gold before, and you know how to do it. You don't need me to teach you. Go for it."

Xiong Bao didn't even look up, he just grabbed the gold ore and started chewing it.

Kureha and Messer then continued their search for the salamander.

After the gold mine episode.

The luck of the two seemed to be getting better and better.

After a while, Messer found five pink and white creatures that looked like small lizards in a small pond. They had six external gills, three on each side, which looked like small red horns.

Catch them accurately and quickly and place them in a plastic box, then pour water from a small pond into it, and then add some small stones and aquatic plants.

Maintain their growth ecology.

After it was done, Kuleha also made a discovery. When Messer looked over, he saw three earth-brown salamanders.

Put them together in the box.

"Are you still catching me?"

Messer asked.

Kuleha thought for a moment and said, "Let's grab a few more. After all, this is for experiments, so we should prepare more to prevent any accidents."

The two continued to catch him.

Half an hour later.

We caught 11 more and then couldn't find them anymore.

Maybe he hid in the water.

19 in total.

Put the breathable plastic lid on.

The two came to Xiong Bao and looked at each other in silence after seeing the hole. At this moment, Xiong Bao had already chewed out a big hole with a diameter of ten meters.

And on the edge of the big pit there is a small pile of irregular gold blocks.

Judging from the color and texture, it has obviously been refined and is of excellent purity.

As the two arrived, Xiong Bao also climbed out of the pit below and spat out the last piece of irregular gold from his mouth.

It's about half the size of a fist.

At this time, Xiong Bao also pointed down and shook his head at Messi, meaning that there was no gold mine below.

Mercer rubbed Xiong Bao's head and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll go back and see if I can catch any prey. If I do, I'll treat you to barbecue."

Moses piled the gold into a pile and roughly counted it.

Finally, the pile of gold is about 77280 grams, which is equivalent to Bailey.
Messer looked at Kuleha and smiled. "Doctor Doriel, I calculated. Based on the recent gold price of 10,000 berries per gram, the total is about 770 million."

Kuleha narrowed her eyes, did some mental calculations, and nodded after a few seconds. "Seven hundred and seventy-two million eight hundred thousand berries."

Messer blinked and gave Kuleha a thumbs-up. "Great."

"With this income, I think Doctor Doriel won't be short of funds for her recent research, right?"

"Oh, if we really want to study it, no amount of Bailey will be enough."

Kuleha patted Messer's shoulder and said with a smile, "Boy, you still have a lot to accomplish. This is just the beginning."

"Okay, now that we've done what we need to do, we can leave. We can't escape from this place. If you want iron ore, you can get it yourself when you have time."

"okay."

Without any instructions from Moses, as soon as he heard that they were leaving, Xiong Bao immediately opened his mouth and swallowed all the gold, storing it in his stomach.

Practice makes perfect.

Return along the same route you came.

……

Half an hour later.

As it got colder, the two men and the bear came out of the crevice in the rocks.

Came to the outside world.

It was almost noon after all the busy work. Messer looked at the sky and said to Kuleha, "You two go back first. I'll go look around and hunt some prey."

Kuleha smiled and took the plastic box of salamanders from Messer's hand. "Okay, then be careful. But remember, don't provoke the Labang group.

You might not be able to defeat them right now, and you might get hurt if you're not careful. They can also take advantage of the environment and trigger avalanches. Be careful, and get out of here."

"Okay. Take care."

Kuleha rolled her eyes at Meser, then smiled and rode on Xiongbao and walked away from Meser.

Walking alone in the snow, feeling the wind and snow and the loneliness all around, Moser suddenly felt like singing a song.

And a very magical tune appeared in my mind.

"What's it called? Well, it's called 'Two Cows', how do you sing it? Oh, yes, that's how it's sung."

There are two cows on the hillside to the east.

The bull said to the cow, "I love you."

The cow said to the bull, "Are you ashamed?"

The bull said, "Don't be ashamed, I love you!"
……

The sky is full of wind and snow.

Mercer was humming a strange tune, wearing a white furry labang coat, and was looming in the snow.

Unconsciously, Moses came to the mouth of a low valley, looking at the faint plum blossom prints under his feet and the hard objects like fresh black stones.

Mercer's observation Haki spread out, and he sensed many auras of varying strengths in a certain location in the valley.

Something moved in my heart.

He ran quickly towards that direction. After a few minutes, his pace slowed down. Not far ahead, Messer saw a herd of deer.

A herd of hundreds of deer.

As breathing rises and falls, the whole person enters a state of unity between man and nature.

Assimilate your own breath into the wind and snow.

He rushed towards that direction at a fast speed, like a snow leopard lying in ambush in the snow.

Danger is approaching quietly.

Twenty meters away.

Messier took a deep breath, holding a scalpel in each of his five fingers, and quickly scanned the deer.

Finally, two very strong stags were selected.

The next moment, Moses jumped up.

He rushed out quickly, and at the moment of rushing out, he threw the scalpels in his hands back and forth.

puff puff!

Two slight muffled sounds appeared one after another.

With the sudden appearance of Mercer, the deer were frightened and fell into chaos.

Escape in all directions.

However, two deer stayed forever.

[Obtain F+ level soul crystals*2]

The two soul crystals as small as rice grains were kept by Messer.

He walked over, picked up the two deer's horns, and disappeared in the wind and snow with the deer.
