“Master, this is the place.”
A person and a bird entered the valley. Yin’er had found a cave, which followed a winding, deep underground river, leading them straight downwards into the earth and to the gold mine they were excavating.
“Yin’er, stay back!”
Su Qingluo’s face became serious as she gathered spiritual power within her Golden Core, forming hand signs and constantly changing directions.
“Open!”
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light burst out from her hands and shot toward the heart of the mine.
“Rumble.”
The mine collapsed, and deep crevices began to appear on the surrounding walls.
“Crackle.”
The cracks grew larger, and the ground around the mine shattered and collapsed, naturally forming irregular deep pits.
The moment the ground cracked, Su Qingluo jumped onto a protruding rock within the cave, set up a spiritual power shield and avoided the dust that came at her.
When the dust settled and calm returned to the cave, Su Qingluo jumped down from the rock and, together with Little Kingfisher, inspected the underground crevices.
“Wow, gold! It’s all gold!”
From the bottomless crevices, faint gold glimmers flashed, dazzling Little Kingfisher’s eyes.
Su Qingluo used her spiritual power to extract a piece of gold ore from the crack and closely examined it.
It had a high gold content, excellent quality, and it could be refined into high-purity gold after simple melting.
“Master, can we say that we now have a vast fortune?”
Little Kingfisher flapped its wings and happily circled above her head.
The little creature always remembered its master’s wish to enjoy a life of wealth and pleasures.
The master’s wish was its wish, and it was always thinking about helping her achieve her desires.
“Yes!”
Su Qingluo’s lips curved with laughter, her bright eyes looking at the cheerful, leaping pet, filled with infinite tenderness.
“That’s great! We can travel around the world now, tasting delicious food, admiring beautiful sceneries, and living a carefree life.”
Little Kingfisher’s crisp, melodious cheers echoed in the underground river, lingering.
For years, shrouded in thick fog, the mysterious valley was surrounded by precipitous cliffs reaching straight into the sky. The landscape inside the valley was isolated from the outside world, forming its own unique environment.
After leaving the underground river, Su Qingluo and Little Kingfisher continued to explore the valley. They passed through a long, narrow tunnel, and the scene before them suddenly became bright and clear.
The bottom of the valley, where it was always spring, was covered in green grass and blossoms, with a clear brook gently flowing and a bamboo forest swaying in the wind.
Su Qingluo and Little Kingfisher were overjoyed to enter this Peach Blossom Land-like valley, shouting cheerfully and frolicking on the grass.
“Master, come quickly! There’s a herb garden under the flowers!”
Little Kingfisher glided low over the flower sea at the bottom of the valley and discovered traces of human cultivation.
“Coming.”
Su Qingluo was currently standing outside an abandoned little bamboo hut at the edge of the bamboo forest. Her delicate hand had just touched the door when it turned to green ashes and drifted away with the wind.
After hearing Little Kingfisher’s shout, her eyes flickered slightly, and she abandoned the examination of the bamboo hut’s secret. She ran towards the direction of the herb garden.
Reaching the herb garden, she pulled away the messy flowers to reveal the medicinal plants hidden beneath. Su Qingluo’s breathing stagnated, and her jade-like, delicate face could not hide the surprise.
What she saw was a large clump of angelica with thick roots. Judging by its appearance, the angelica had been growing for at least a thousand years.
“Master, there are at least three herb fields at the bottom of the valley, each planted with different medicinal plants like salvia, angelica, red peony, licorice, skullcap, and ephedra. They have everything we could possibly need.”
Little Kingfisher circled above the valley, and in just the time it took to make a cup of tea, it had searched the entire secluded valley bottom.
“Yin’er, it seems we’ve found the real treasure.’
Admiring the endless sea of flowers, Su Qingluo faced the refreshing mountain breeze and could barely contain her excitement..
