Chapter 541: Gold Devouring (3)
Jiang Li smiled cunningly and said, "Wait and see how I take it away!"
She leaned against the mountain wall and said, "Gold-eating grass, would you like to come to my house as a guest? I have plenty of gold, silver, and jewelry at home! You can eat as much as you want."
Of course, she was not talking about her and Xie Changan’s mansion, but the Dragon Palace warehouse where the dragon eggs were kept.
The dragon clan loves golden and shiny things the most, so there are countless gold, silver and jewelry stored in the warehouse.
These things have no spiritual energy, so they are not used to nourish dragon eggs.
When they cleaned up the Dragon Palace, the gold, silver and jewelry that had been sealed in the warehouse were able to see the light of day again.
Seeing that she was planning to be generous to others, Xie Changan couldn't help but laugh: "Have you asked your Dandan?"
Jiang Li snorted, "I'm going to live and die with him, so what if I spend his money?"
Xie Changan felt quite unhappy, but fortunately, the dragon egg was still an egg!
After a while, I heard the Gold Devouring Grass hesitate and say, "I guess not."
It is in this gold mine, safe and well-fed. What if it gets out and these two humans break their promise?
Jiang Li added, "The imperial court has discovered this gold mine and will soon be mining it on a large scale. You won't be able to keep your nest any longer!"
"Ah?" Gold Devouring Grass was shocked. "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you? In a few days, they'll blow the mountain apart with explosives."
The Gold-Eating Grass didn't respond for a long while. Jiang Li smiled secretly. She could already imagine the Gold-Eating Grass's extremely conflicted look.
At this moment, she received a message from Hui Chun Ting: "Master, Master, the two young masters are awake!"
"Okay, okay, I'll be right back!"
Jiang Li said to the Gold Devouring Grass again, "I have something to do and I'm leaving first. I'll come see you tomorrow. Please think about it carefully."
She asked Xie Changan to go back and reunite with Mo Qilang, and then she thought about it and returned to the Dragon Palace.
Xie Changan had no choice but to go back to find Mo Qilang on his own.
After Mo Qillang had been a caveman for three days, the Fujian Navy fleet finally arrived.
Yuan Shouhe led the team personally, and Xiaoou also came with a seabird scout team.
It was very happy to see Jiang Li, squatting on her shoulder and chattering non-stop.
Jiang Li asked, "I asked you to strengthen patrols on Dongying Island. Have you found anything?"
Xiaoou shook his head: "Not yet! But we have subdued the birds on the islands and have them watching the palace day and night. If there is any news, I will report to you immediately!"
"Good, well done!" Jiang Li praised it.
Although Japan is an island country, its overall area is still not small, with mountains and peaks, and many places are inaccessible to seabirds.
But the indigenous birds on the island are different. To tame them is equivalent to placing countless spies in Japan, and no matter what movement occurs, the birds will be able to see it.
Yuan Shouhe also came over to greet Jiang Li, Xie Changan and Mo Qilang.
"Greetings to the two princes, and to Lord Mo."
Mo Qilang quickly returned the greeting: "Greetings, General Yuan!"
After exchanging some pleasantries, they got down to business.
Mo Qilang said, "After my preliminary exploration, this gold mine is not only large, but also contains a high amount of gold. Our future security will depend on General Yuan."
Sanshan Island is close to the sea. Once the news of the gold mine here is leaked, it will surely attract countless people to dig it up.
If they enter or exit from the sea, it would be impossible to guard against them.
Yuan Shouhe also felt the weight of his responsibility. He said solemnly, "The navy will do its utmost to ensure the safety of the gold mine!"
Mo Qilang added, "I plan to blow up a part of the mountain first to see what's going on inside. I need a team of navy brothers to help me."
Yuan Shouhe nodded: "No problem, Lord Mo, please give your orders."
Jiang Li's eyes lit up: "Are we going to blow up the mountain tomorrow?"
Mo Qilang nodded: "Yes, do the two princes have any objections?"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "No, no, I will be on site to supervise the event."
When the earth shakes and the mountains shake, won’t that gold-eating grass be scared to death?
Just take the opportunity to put it in your pocket!
The next day, Mo Qilang led a team of naval soldiers to set up a trap around Xifeng.
Jiang Li followed along under the pretext of watching the fun.
Xie Changan naturally followed suit.
Seeing that both princes had come out in person, Yuan Shouhe couldn't stand by and watch, so he joined in the fun.
Mo Qillang felt overwhelmed when he saw a bunch of outsiders following him.
"Little Sixteen, the fuse will be lit soon. You should get out first, at least ten miles away!"
Jiang Li shook his head like a rattle: "No, I still have to wait for a friend here."
She had already informed the gold-eating grass that the mountain was about to be blown up, but the timid and suspicious grass refused to come out.
She would stay here and wait for the frightened "rabbit" to come to her on its own.
Mo Qilang was surprised: "You still have a friend in this mountain? Let him out quickly!"
Jiang Li chuckled: "It's okay, just blow it up. He won't come out unless you blow him up."
Mo Qillang was confused. Is this a friend or an enemy?
He looked at Xie Changan, asking with his eyes, should we blow it up or not?
Xie Changan nodded: "Light it up."
Mo Qilang had no choice but to give everyone a pair of earplugs developed by Longmen Tiangong and a dust-proof face towel.
This type of earplug has excellent sound insulation and can ensure that the eardrum will not be damaged by the loud noise of the explosion to the greatest extent.
After everyone put on earplugs and covered their faces with scarves, they retreated to a safe distance. Mo Qillang then made a gesture to indicate that the fire should be lit.
The navy soldiers checked the explosive holes and fuses one last time, then retreated to the bunkers several dozen meters away.
After the fuse was lit, the naval soldier responsible for lighting the fire quickly ran outside the safety line.
The wind suddenly stopped, and even the tits on the branches stopped moving. Only the "sizzling" sound of the burning sticks being lit was particularly clear in the silence.
The orange-red sparks shot forward along the fuse, leaving a thin black mark.
Soon, there was a loud "boom" and a loud noise that made people's eardrums hurt, like thunder hitting the bottom of the valley.
First, a dazzling white light burst out from the rock wall, followed by a column of gray-brown smoke rising into the sky, wrapped in gravel and rushing upwards, with smoke and dust rising everywhere.
There was a heart-numbing tremor coming from the ground, and the branches of the bushes next to it shook so much that the leaves fell down.
Everyone was crawling on the ground. In the billowing smoke and dust, Mo Qilang saw with his sharp eyes that a cluster of golden light suddenly shot out from the rising dust and flew towards them like a meteor.
Before he could raise a warning, the cluster of golden light plunged into Jiang Li's arms!
Mo Qillang was shocked, but when he saw that Jiang Li and Xie Changan both looked calm, he suppressed his curiosity and waited patiently for the explosion to stop.
As the smoke and dust slowly cleared, revealing the blasted mountain, a large section of the once neat rock face was missing, revealing a new, bluish-gray section within. Debris continued to clatter down the hillside, crashing into rocks at the bottom of the valley, sending up tiny sparks and bouncing several meters away.
Mo Qilang didn't bother to check the effect of the explosion, and immediately looked towards Jiang Li. What stunned him was that only Xie Changan was left at the scene, and Jiang Li had disappeared without a trace!
Mo Qilang was shocked: "Boss, where is Xiao Shiliu?"
Xie Changan said helplessly: "She is fine, she has already gone back."
Where else could Jiang Li go? As soon as he got the Gold Devouring Grass, of course he teleported back to the Dragon Palace!
