There were a total of six similar stone platforms, and there was quite a bit of greasewood on them. Song Qiao placed a pile of greasewood on each platform and reignited the fire. The surroundings became brightly lit.
Lei Xingfeng looked at the large open space. There were still many puddles on the ground, and he was completely dumbfounded. "The heather gravel is here? Senior Song, can you dig a bit for me to see? "He couldn't see any signs at all.
"Alright, I'll demonstrate," Song Qiao said. As he spoke, he hovered half a foot above the ground and circled around the muddy ground. After inspecting it back and forth, he took out a huge steel shovel and aimed it at a piece of muddy ground. With a shovel, a large piece of mud was dug out. Then, he flew to the side of the stone platform and began to examine the black mud.
After a while, he found a heather gravel in the mud. It was only the size of a thumb and was dark red in color. Song Yao had only found one in a shovel of mud. He said, "There are heather gravels everywhere, but you might not be able to find them when you dig. Most of the soil is empty. Hehe, I was lucky this time and found a heather gravel."
Lei Xingfeng took the gravel. "It's soft?" he asked in surprise.
"Yes," Song Qiao said. "It'll be as hard as iron when the wind blows. How about it? Can you find it quickly? "
Lei Xingfeng smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I don't think so … Let me try."
Song Qiao took out a few steel shovels and handed them to everyone. "Then let's try our luck. This is a pretty good material. If we can collect more, we can exchange it for Yin Rings." His words immediately piqued everyone's interest.
XinFeng was still observing, as this was the first time he came into contact with minerals in the mud, he didn't know how to search for them. Slowly, he got used to the light here, as the only light here was the flame on the stone platform, the light wasn't stable and affected his observation.
Squinting his eyes, XinFeng stared at the ground, slowly noticing some changes. He could indeed see the red glow coming from the ground, but due to the red glow from the bonfire, if he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't be able to notice it.
With a shovel, XinFeng dug out a large pile of dirt. He brought this shovel of dirt to the side of the stone platform. There were a total of two pieces of Heather gravel. The others shoveled one after the other, not even a shadow of the Heather gravel could be seen.
Song Qiao had been paying attention to Lei Xingfeng. When he saw the first shovel, he immediately followed. When he saw the two heather gravels, he couldn't help but sigh. "Your luck is out of this world. You found it on your first shovel."
Lei Xingfeng laughed and started digging again.
In just half a day, other than XinFeng who found a few dozen Heather gravel, Song Yao only found seven, and the others didn't even have that many. The worst was Fengying, who only found one Heather gravel after half a day, causing him to feel depressed.
Song Qiao smiled bitterly. He thought Lei Xingfeng could give him some pointers, but he understood that even Lei Xingfeng only found a little more than the others. "A Feng," he asked, "is it hard to dig here?"
XinFeng nodded, "En, I'm still thinking of ways to find a large area of ores, but this place has already been excavated, it's hard to find much Heather gravel. We're only excavating ores left behind by others, the amount is too little."
There were even stone platforms here. One could imagine how many people had dug here.
"Why don't we look around?" Song Qiao asked. In fact, he wasn't confident. Countless people had already searched this area.
Lei Xingfeng thought for a moment and said, "That's a good idea. Too much has been dug up here. There are only a few heather gravels left. No matter how hard we try, we won't be able to find much. It's a waste of time and energy. It's not worth it."
Song Qiao also admitted this point, the reason why he brought XinFeng and the others here was because of XinFeng's shocking performance in the Da La Sha mining area, actually finding a new vein of ore, allowing them to earn a large sum.
XinFeng brought Jin Daya with him, the two of them holding torches as they wandered around, trying to find new heather gravel mines.
After a big circle, they found a lot of heather gravels. However, there weren't many of them, only a few dozen. Lei Xingfeng and Jin Daya dug them up and found a few hundred heather gravels.
Song Qiao waited until Lei Xingfeng came back and asked, "How was it? Did you find anything? "
Lei Xingfeng shook his head. "No. Only a few small mines. We found a little bit of heather gravels. It's too little."
Song Qiao sighed. "Forget it. If that's the case, let's dig up as much as we can. It's rare for us to come here. Even if we don't dig up much, at least we have some savings."
Lei Xingfeng said, "Let's dig with our luck."
After a few days of hard work, everyone was dispirited. They didn't have much to gain, so naturally, they didn't have much energy left.
Lei Xingfeng didn't dig with the others. Instead, he took Jin Daya to wander around. The two of them found a lot of heather gravels. Even the smallest mines had dozens of heather gravels. If they found a bigger mine, it wouldn't be surprising to find a few hundred.
The two of them hoarded bit by bit. By the time everyone was ready to leave, he and Jin Daya had collected a few thousand heather gravels. Lei Xingfeng sighed. "It's too little. If it was a normal mine, we could get at least ten thousand, maybe even a hundred thousand. I don't even know what we can do with a few thousand."
Jin Daya laughed. "Don't complain. You should know that Old Eagle and Old Tiger didn't even dig up a hundred. We've already got so much more than them."
Lei Xingfeng said, "I understand now. This mine is a waste mine. It's not worth digging."
Jin Daya said, "Waste mine? The problem is that you can't even find a waste mine. If Senior Song didn't bring us here, we wouldn't even be able to find a waste mine, let alone harvest it. This amount of heather gravels can be exchanged for a lot of Yin rings." He was quite satisfied.
Lei Xingfeng said, "I still don't know what use heather gravels have."
Jin Daya said, "It's nothing. Just keep it. You know it's good stuff, so don't use it carelessly. When you need it, you can save a lot of time and energy."
Lei Xingfeng thought of the bone he collected in the past. It turned out to be the most suitable material for refining Lei Yin. When he first got it, he didn't know what use it had, so he was very optimistic about the prospects of hoarding materials. Even if he didn't know what use it had, he would store it in his Hidden Lun space.
Luckily, he had the Hidden Lun space. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hoard materials. After coming to this world, the thing that surprised and satisfied him the most was the Hidden Lun space. With it, he had a home.
The two of them returned, laughing.
Song Yao still didn't give up. He said, "A Feng, did you find anything?"
Lei Xingfeng shook his head. "This is definitely a waste mine. No one will come here. There are no ore veins around, only a few tiny spots. It's not worth much."
Song Yao sighed again. He said, "I was too greedy. Hehe, alright, let's go back."
Xin Zhaolun smiled. "The harvest is already good enough. Hehe, I didn't expect to collect so many Lahu ores. Just this one mine, everything is worth it."
It was very convenient to go back. There was no need to travel through mountains and rivers, especially in the Ice Cave Plains. At this time, there was no way to go up. There was definitely a violent snowstorm above, and it was impossible to fly. Then, who would dare to walk on the ice covered with ice caves?
But with Song Yao's secret door, they just had to open it.
And the destination of the secret door was Xin Zhaolun's courtyard. A few minutes later, they returned to Hanya Castle.
… …
There weren't many people in Hanya Castle. Most of the outsiders had left. This was the best time to go to many places in Hanya Castle.
Song Yao walked out of the secret door. He suddenly thought of something and said, "A Feng, where did you guys dig up the purple crystals?"
Lei Xingfeng smiled. "We didn't dig them up. We fished them out of the magma."
Song Yao said, "Biyasi … Oh, I understand. You guys went deep into the ground, right? Can you give me the address? "
Lei Xingfeng looked at Xin Zhaolun. This mine was brought by Xin Zhaolun, so he couldn't make the decision.
Xin Zhaolun didn't mind. He collected enough materials this time. Plus, Song Yao was a Monarch. He didn't dare to offend him. Plus, Song Yao brought them to three mines. He couldn't not tell Song Yao the location.
Song Yao got the exact location. He said, "I owe you one. Yes, two. I can help you twice in the future."
Xin Zhaolun felt that it was worth it. Monarchs might do whatever they want, but monarchs' promises were very powerful. They rarely went back on their promises. Once they promised something, they would do their best to fulfill it. Plus, monarchs' strength was the guarantee of this kind of promise.
Song Yao got the address and left. But before he left, he pulled Lei Xingfeng into a room and whispered for a long time.
After Song Yao left, Xin Zhaolun smiled. "A Feng, what did senior Song say?"
Lei Xingfeng smiled. "Senior Song and I made an appointment to go to another place to dig. But, my strength is low. When I reach eighth ring, he will come find me."
Everyone's eyes were filled with envy. This was a Monarch bringing him to find resources. Not to mention other things, just how many materials could he gather? Plus, he didn't have to waste time looking for ore veins. He just had to follow.
Xin Zhaolun smiled. "If senior takes you there, call me!"
Lei Xingfeng agreed. He also wanted to help Xin Zhaolun. After all, he was his senior brother. He could help him a lot.
Xin Zhaolun said, "We got a lot this time. When the time is up, we will go back. During this time, everyone should cultivate. The effect of cultivating here is excellent. Don't waste it."
