Chapter 166 Shushu's Discovery

In a forest more than 300 miles away from Changqing Mountain.

Unlike when it just left Changqing Mountain, the gold-eating rat is now trying to sense the surrounding situation.

The rain is still falling, and the raindrops dripping on the body in the forest are larger, which has no effect on the gold-eating rat's search.

The light blue clothes Li Xingsheng is wearing are a low-grade magic weapon, which has the function of regulating temperature and waterproofing. After the raindrops drip on him, it is basically dry.

When he goes out to search, he still has to be on guard against the robbery cultivators.

Being within the influence of the Li family does not mean that the Li family cultivators are invincible, and the robbery cultivators dare not touch them.

Under normal circumstances, the robbery cultivators will not wander around here for nothing. Generally speaking, the possibility of him encountering the robbery cultivators is still very small. There is no big problem if he encounters the robbery cultivators. Thirteenth uncle has prepared a means of escape for him.

In addition to this, Thirteenth uncle may come over and directly destroy the robbery cultivators. The premise is that Thirteenth uncle has nothing important to do. If there is something important, he can only run away, and it is obviously difficult to counterattack.

At the current distance from Changqing Mountain, it is difficult for Qi Refining cultivators to rush over to support him, unlike Foundation Establishment cultivators who can reach him quickly.

"Shushu, what's wrong?"

Li Xingsheng suddenly found that the mutant gold-eating rat was unusually excited, and he asked immediately after noticing the situation.

He was very concerned about the state of the gold-eating rat, and he could almost react immediately as long as Shushu was wrong.

Just like now, the mutant gold-eating rat just started to get excited, and Li Xingsheng found the problem.

When he said this, Li Xingsheng felt a little excited in his heart. Shushu's appearance might have discovered something. Although he had never seen the gold-eating rat discover the metal spirit mine, he could make a rough judgment.

"Jiji..."

Li Xingsheng immediately understood what Shushu meant. Shushu meant for him to follow it.

Li Xingsheng followed the gold-eating rat closely without any hesitation.

The gold-eating rat moved very fast. As a mutated gold-eating rat, Shushu moved even faster. However, in order to take care of Li Xingsheng, it only maintained a normal speed. Even so, Li Xingsheng had to use the light body technique to catch up.

After walking about a mile, Shushu stopped.

Then, Shushu dug down with its little claws.

Compared to normal gold-eating rats, Shushu's digging speed can be described as turtle speed. Mutations have both advantages and disadvantages. Obviously, the mutated gold-eating rat Shushu has completely lost its talent in digging.

Li Xingsheng's digging speed with his bare hands is faster than Shushu.

"Okay, stop digging. Is there something delicious under here?" Li Xingsheng asked.

For gold-eating rats, metal ore is their food. The higher the metal ore, the more gold-eating rats like to eat it. Of course, there is also an upper limit. Ordinary gold-eating rats cannot devour second-grade high-quality metal ore.

Shushu did not look up, but nodded his little head frantically, and then continued to dig.

The rat seemed to be obsessed with the food it found. Even when Li Xingsheng asked it to stop, it continued to dig. After a while, only a small groove appeared on the ground.

If it was an ordinary gold-eating rat, it would have been able to drill into the soil now.

"Great!"

Li Xingsheng was very happy. He was happy that he finally had a harvest today. Although he didn't know what kind of metal spirit ore was underneath, it was worth it anyway. You know, the gold-eating rat wouldn't eat metal ore without a little spiritual energy.

"Rat, stop digging. Let's go." Li Xingsheng signaled the gold-eating rat to stop digging for the second time.

Metal spirit ore itself is not easy to find. Besides, this place is still within the influence of the Li family. Even if they leave it here for more than ten or twenty years, no one will find that there is a metal spirit ore here.

Li Xingsheng was not in a hurry at all in this regard.

The only thing he was in a hurry was that after telling Thirteenth Uncle this good news, he wanted Thirteenth Uncle to come and see what kind of metal ore there was underneath.

This mutant gold-eating rat still didn't listen to his words and continued to do its digging work.

Without signing a contract, especially in this situation, the monster cannot be ordered, but this does not have much impact.

If talking does not work, then do it with your hands.

Li Xingsheng directly lifted up the mutant gold-eating rat.

At this time, the rat was still waving its small mouse claws, and it kept chirping in its mouth, as if it was saying.

Let me go, I want to continue digging, this is what I found...

The gold-eating rat struggled desperately, and there was no intention of attacking Li Xingsheng. The bite of the gold-eating rat was very painful, and the current rat was already able to bite to death the cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining.

No matter what the situation was, the rat would not attack Li Xingsheng.

It was because of this that it was too easy for Li Xingsheng to catch it.

"Okay, don't move, let's go back first, and come back later to dig for you!" Li Xingsheng comforted the rat.

In his eyes, the current rat was like a child who was rolling on the ground, and he was not small anymore, he was fifteen years old.

The gold-eating rat obviously took his words to heart, and after chirping twice, it stopped struggling.

When Li Xingsheng let it go, it came to Li Xingsheng's shoulder and wiped its dirt-covered claws on his clothes, and soon they were clean.

Li Xingsheng didn't care about this, he first made a simple mark at this place.

In fact, you don't need to make a mark. With Shushu here, when you get close to this place, Shushu, who is searching for the metal spirit mine with all his strength, will feel very good and basically won't get lost.

"Done, let's go back first."

Li Xingsheng used the light body technique to leave. Shushu couldn't help but look back a few times, as if to bid a final farewell to this place.

After rushing back to Changqing Mountain with all his strength.

Li Xingsheng came to Li Qianqing's cave as soon as possible, and then he found that Thirteenth Uncle was in seclusion now, so don't disturb him unless there was something urgent and important.

The discovery of the metal spirit mine is important, but not urgent.

The metal spirit mine will not run away with legs, so it will be in time to tell Li Qianqing the news even after a year.

"Thirteenth Uncle, it seems that he is refining elixirs."

Last year, Twenty-one Uncle Li Qiantong harvested a second-level low-grade spirit medicine.

Li Xingsheng knew this news, but what he didn't know was whether Thirteenth Uncle was refining pills after the second-grade lower-grade spiritual medicine was harvested. He didn't know much about the family's alchemy. He just knew that the second-grade pills of the family were all handed over to Qingfeng Valley for refining.

Li Xingsheng, who was guessing in his heart, quickly went to Li Qiantong to find out the situation.

Now he was completely sure that Thirteenth Uncle was refining pills, and they were second-grade lower-grade pills.

From then on, Li Xingsheng would come to the door of Li Qianqing's cave every day to check the situation.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of March.

This was the thirteenth day that Li Xingsheng came to the door of Li Qianqing's cave.

The weather was very good today, and I was in a good mood to go out. What made Li Xingsheng even happier was that Thirteenth Uncle was finally not in a state of seclusion and could not be disturbed today.

In the past ten days, he was actually fine, and it was Shushu who was uncomfortable.

After returning to Changqing Mountain, Shushu would dig in the corner of the house from time to time. Compared with the soil in the woods, it was more difficult to dig in Changqing Mountain.

The solution to Shushu's problem is also simple, just give it a piece of low-grade spirit stone and let it stay in one place and chew it.

Dongdong.

Li Xingsheng knocked on the stone door.

When the stone door slowly opened, he could smell the medicinal fragrance coming from Thirteenth Uncle's cave.

This smell is very good.

"Thirteenth Uncle, I have found something!" Li Xingsheng entered the cave and said immediately after bowing to Li Qianqing. He was a little anxious and still couldn't forget the basic etiquette. Unless it was an extremely urgent moment, the basic etiquette must be followed.

"Have you found a metal spirit mine?" Li Qianqing confirmed.

When Li Xingsheng said there was a discovery, he generally meant this.

Fifty furnaces of second-grade low-grade spirit-raising pills, he has refined a total of thirty-five furnaces so far. As long as the success rate of five furnaces is not 100%, this result is not bad for him personally. In this way, the final loss will not exceed ten second-grade low-grade spirit-raising pills.

This is also the goal Li Qianqing set for himself.

"Yes, Uncle Thirteen, Shu Shu found a metal spirit mine."

At this time, the gold-eating rat came to Li Xingsheng's shoulder and chirped twice. It was asking Li Qianqing for a reward.

"Shu Shu, let's talk about this later."

"It's okay." Li Qianqing smiled and stood up, handing a low-grade spirit stone to the gold-eating rat, "See what kind of metal spirit mine you found. If I am satisfied, you, little guy, will definitely get a reward."

"Xingsheng, point the direction."

When Li Xingsheng came back to his senses, he had been carried by Li Qianqing to the outside of the cave.
