Chapter 539: Gold Devouring (1)
Three days later, Mo Qilang excitedly arrived at Yunxi Garden in the suburbs of Beijing with his bag on his back.
Jiang Li sent a message to him to wait here, but Mo Qilang found that Qingfeng and Cangsong were the only ones in Yunxi Garden.
"Greetings, Master Mo!"
"Where is your prince?" Mo Qilang asked.
Qing Feng smiled and said, "The two princes have already left and told us to wait here for Master Mo and the Eagle God."
"They've already left?" Mo Qilang was surprised. "Why didn't they wait for me?"
Cangsong also smiled and said, "The two princes don't need to ride the eagle. Only Lord Mo will be riding the eagle this time."
"Ah?" Mo Qilang was stunned. "If they didn't ride on eagles, could it be that they actually rode on dragons?"
Qingfeng smiled. "Don't you think Lord Mo doesn't know that our prince has a portable cave? He can move freely in the water and arrive at a place a thousand miles away in a moment."
"A portable cave?!"
Mo Qillang was even more stunned.
A portable cave, the legendary immortal thing!
Little Sixteen actually has one too?!
He slapped his thigh in frustration, thinking he had missed the opportunity. If he had known this, he would not have asked to ride the eagle!
No, he insisted on visiting this legendary fairyland!
At this time, a clear eagle cry was heard in the air, and the eagle was coming.
With a gust of wind, the huge eagle slowly landed on the open space of Yunxi Garden.
Qingfeng and Cangsong hurried forward and saluted: "Greetings to the Eagle God."
Mo Qilang had no choice but to bow respectfully to the eagle: "Master Eagle God, thank you for your help."
The eagle nodded to him modestly, motioning him to come up.
Mo Qilang jumped onto the eagle's back nimbly. Qingfeng and Cangsong, as usual, secured him with steel cables to prevent him from falling accidentally.
Mo Qillang was a little worried. The steel cable was so strong. How would he be able to untie it by himself when he reached his destination?
Qingfeng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Mo, the prince will be waiting for you on Sanshan Island."
The eagle cried out, spread its wings and flew high into the sky.
The sound of wind whistled in his ears, and the strong wind blowing in his face made Mo Qilang's exposed skin slightly sting.
Mo Qillang is indeed a knowledgeable leader of the Mo family. He has also worked as a secret guard of the East Factory. He has extraordinary skills and quickly adapted to high-altitude flying.
He looked at the miniature mountains and rivers beneath his feet and felt like an immortal riding the wind. He couldn't help but feel excited, but he only regretted that he had too little knowledge and couldn't recite a poem.
The capital city was only a thousand miles away from the Bohai Bay. After the eagle had flown for about half a day, Mo Qillang saw the vast, azure, and boundless sea.
The eagle let out a long cry and began to descend.
Mo Qillang braved the strong wind, squinted his eyes, and looked down at the peninsula extending into the sea.
Sanshan Island consists of three peaks, with the middle peak slightly in front and the east and west peaks standing side by side. The mountain is steep in the north and gentle in the south.
There is a huge flat rock on the top of the middle peak. At this moment, a person is standing on it. He is tall and graceful, and his black robe embroidered with gold is fluttering in the wind, as if he is about to fly away with the wind.
The man heard the eagle's cry and looked up, and it was Xie Chang'an!
Mo Qilang waved to him excitedly: "Prince! Are you here to pick me up?"
After the eagle landed, Xie Changan bowed slightly and said, "Brother Eagle, thank you for your help!"
The eagle cried out and nodded in return.
Xie Changan helped Mo Qilang untie the steel cable and said with a smile, "Master Mo, you have worked hard along the way."
Mo Qilang scratched his head sheepishly, "I'm so grateful that Your Highness has come to pick me up personally. I'm overwhelmed with fear!"
The two men thanked the eagle again, and the eagle called a few more times.
Xie Changan had already made some progress in his Beast Taming Sect cultivation and could already understand what the eagle was saying. He was saying, "We are all working for His Majesty. Your Highness, there is no need to be polite!"
Xie Changan smiled and said, "Give my regards to my sister-in-law and your son."
The eagle also laughed and said, "There are rituals going on in my temple these days, so I won't be going to pay my respects to the fairy, the young prince, and the county lady. Please, Your Highness, give my regards on my behalf."
The "Diao God Sacrifice" is being held around the Greater Khingan Range these days, and he has to rush back to appear at the ceremony and bless the people.
"Okay, the ritual is more important, Brother Diao, please go back first."
The eagle then spread its wings, flew high into the sky, and disappeared in an instant.
Mo Qillang was extremely envious when he saw him talking to the eagle.
"Your Highness, have you also learned Xiao Shiliu's magic? Please teach me."
He had a flattering look on his face.
Xie Changan glanced at him and said, "A great Mohist scholar actually wants to join another sect. I'm afraid that the coffins of your Mohist ancestors will not be able to hold it down!"
Mo Qilang felt discouraged and asked again, "Where's Xiao Shiliu? She didn't come?"
Xie Changan's eyes showed tenderness: "She is here, she is looking after the child."
Mo Qillang's eyes suddenly lit up. So, Xiao Shiliu is in that portable cave right now?
They even brought their one-month-old twin boys and girls!
He approached Xie Changan and said with a sullen face, "Your Highness, can you take me into your...immortal cave?"
Xie Changan raised his eyebrows slightly: "When we were in the capital, I could let you in, but now..."
Mo Qillang looked at him expectantly.
"Now in the sea, it is over a thousand feet deep. If you can dive to the bottom, you can enter."
"what?"
How can human power reach the bottom of the sea which is more than a thousand feet deep?
"Since it's an immortal cave, isn't there a quick and easy way?"
Mo Qillang had an expression of disbelief on his face. Wasn't there a way to just chant a spell and get in instantly?
Xie Changan smiled bitterly. Little Li Nu and his four children could do it, but he couldn't!
If he hadn't mastered the art of teleporting underwater, he would have been exhausted from diving in and out of the cave!
"Alas, not to mention you, even I can't do that. If you want to enter and exit this cave freely, you need a bloodline to pull you in."
Mo Qillang was stunned for a moment, then he understood that only those who were related to Xiao Shiliu by blood could enter and exit the cave so quickly.
The rest of the people can only enter by diving, including her dear husband Xie Changan!
Mo Qilang immediately cast a sympathetic look at him and sighed, "Your Majesty, it's not easy for you either!"
Although marrying such a fairy-like lady is the envy of others, catching up with her and walking shoulder to shoulder with her is really as difficult as climbing to the sky!
Xie Changan sighed again and led him down the mountain, introducing the gold mine to him as they walked.
"The two of us discovered this gold mine because we were looking for a gold-type spiritual plant..."
The gold-type spiritual plant "Gold-Eating Grass" was placed by the Mirror Spirit in the Xiling Gold Mine on Sanshan Island.
To obtain this gold-eating grass, one must go deep into the gold mine.
The Xiling gold mine is buried deep beneath the west peak of Sanshan Island.
How to enter the gold mine requires careful exploration.
Both of them had great skills in light martial arts, and soon they reached the foot of the mountain.
Mo Qilang then remembered something: "Your Majesty, where does this humble official live?"
According to Xie Changan, he would dive into the seabed every day and return to the immortal cave.
I don’t have that ability, so where should I live during this period of time?
Xie Changan smiled slightly and said, "The emperor has ordered the navy to send a fleet to build fortifications on the island. They will arrive in about four or five days."
There was a mischievous look in his eyes.
"Before this, the two of us have found a natural cave for Lord Mo to stay in."
"Cave?"
Mo Qilang was delighted at first, but then he understood and his face darkened. A natural cave is just a cave?!
So, he has to be a caveman until the navy fleet arrives?
