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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng Lightning Minx anxiously dug into the sand.
Hua la——
The small sand dunes around it collapsed and instantly buried the Purple Spiritual Flas.h.i.+ng Lightning Minx inside.
Zhi, zhi, zhi, zhi.
The Purple Spiritual Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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 Flas.h.i.+ng 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!
Chapter 786: Desert beast wave?
"Move quicker, the oasis is just over there." Ye Yu Xi felt that this oasis was a bit strange.
They continued moving.
Moving through the desert was very boring.
They were surrounded by nothing other than sand dunes and blue sky, making people strangely irritated.
After another day.
"Boss, we"ll be near the oasis in another day." The fatty and others found some shade to rest in.
Oasis, Ye Yu Xi"s face didn"t have any joy, rather there was a worried look that wouldn"t fade.
Shua, shua, shua.
"What is that sound?" Hei Feng Tian Zong knit his brows.
"Look!" Ye Wen pointed not far away.
"Beast wave?" Seeing the "sand bubbles" quickly moving in front of them, the fatty was stunned. When he remembered what happened last him, his face looked a bit ugly.
Ye Yu Xi"s eyes turned cold and she flicked her hand to send out some spiritual energy.
Hong!
The spiritual energy quickly exploded in front of the "sand bubble".
Shua!
A black figure came out from underground and jumped high up into the sky.
It was a person!
The faces of the fatty and others relaxed. As long as it wasn"t a beast wave, it was fine.
Shua, shua, shua.
Figures appeared out of the other sand bubbles and surrounded Ye Yu Xi"s group.
The fatty, Hei Feng Tian Zong, Ye Wen, and Hei Sha slowly stood up.
"Hand over all your valuables and we"ll let you leave." The bandit who had been knocked out of the ground by Ye Yu Xi spoke first to threaten them.
"Boss, they seem to be bandits." The fatty looked at the cold glowing weapons in their hands and he felt a bit excited.
"Humph~! Leave your life behind, we can give up on the money." Ye Yu Xi said back to them.
"Go!" The bandit leader didn"t waste words and with a wave of his hand, two bandits charged at Ye Yu Xi.
"Boss, let me!"
With a flash of light in the fatty"s hand, his new blade appeared.
Ding!
Weapons clashed.
Seeing the fatty stop the bandit, Ye Yu Xi"s pupils shrunk slightly. This kind of pickaxe, was it their weapon?
Ding, ding, ding.
Behind Ye Yu Xi, Ye Wen"s blade clashed with a bandit"s weapon and they began fighting.
"Watch my blade!"
The fatty gave a roar and grabbed his blade in both hands. He slashed down with sparkling green light on his cold glowing blade.
Ka, pu!
The bandit used the weapon in his hand to block the fatty"s attack, but there was too much difference in the grade of their weapons, so the "pickaxe in his hand was shattered by the fatty"s swing. His shoulder was cut by the fatty"s blade and blood splashed out.
"This is bad, they have some skills! Quickly run!" The bandit leader quickly realized the situation.
Shua, shua, shua.
The bandits jumped into the air and drilled into the sand, scattering in all directions.
"Want to run!" Ye Yu Xi"s eyes turned cold. She flew out and chased the bandit being chased by the fatty.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
Throwing out some spiritual energy, the sand in front of her was blown up and she forced the bandit to stay on the ground.
Shua.
That bandit"s shoulder was injured, so he turned and jumped to the side. It was unknown what kind of skill he used, but once he touched the sand, there was a hole that appeared. In the blink of an eye, his entire upper body had drilled into the sand.
Pa!
The bandit"s sand drilling technique was very fast, but Ye yu Xi was faster. She approached with a single step and caught the bandit"s foot with one hand.
"Up!"
Hu——
Like pulling out a carrot, the bandit who was already in the sand was pulled out by Ye Yu Xi.
Pa!
Ye Yu Xi threw the bandit in a large windmill and slammed him to the ground.
Pu, pu, pu.
Ye Yu Xi sent out some spiritual energy with flicks of her finger, locking the bandit"s acupuncture points and stopping his spiritual energy.
"Fatty." Ye Yu Xi looked over at the fatty.
