Chapter 700: Gold Mine
In the early morning, the crisp sound of birdsong wakes up the sleeping grass. She pulled her arm out of her sleeping bag, stretched wide, and rubbed her hazy eyes.
Suddenly, she felt an itch on her cheeks, touched it with her hand, and found that Xiao Zhutian Stone had come back at some point, her butt was next to her face, and she was sleeping soundly with her little snoring. Rubbing its little head, the grass slipped out of its sleeping bag.
brushed her teeth with mountain spring water, washed her face, and applied skin care products, only then did she realize that her man was not around.
"The prince went out early in the morning and said to pick some mountain fruits for you to eat. I always eat barbecue these days, and the prince is afraid that your master will get angry. Wutong waited for the master to finish washing, packed the sleeping bag and luggage on the ground, and waited for Hou Xiaoliang to come back as a porter.
The first to come back was Su Ran, who was dressed in white and snowy, and among the banana leaves in his hand, there were several fist-sized lotus mist, red and attractive. Wutong hurriedly took it, washed it in the sweet mountain spring water, and handed it to the master.
Xiaocao took a lotus mist and put it in his mouth, the ripe lotus mist is fresh, juicy and sweet, and it tastes good! She gave the rest of the fruit to Wutong and Chunhua. Chunhua has been a little angry lately, and she has a big ulcer in her mouth, so it's time to supplement some vitamins.
"The surname is Su, you are so treacherous!!" Zhu Junyang, who was dressed in black and had a frosty face, was also holding a lot of lotus mist. Seeing his daughter-in-law nibbling on the crisp and sweet lotus mist, his face darkened. If it weren't for Su Ran, who lied to him that there was a wild lychee over there, he would definitely come back before that guy. It's so damnable!!
For the two of them to fight from time to time, Xiaocao is no longer surprised. took a lotus mist from his man's hand, clicked and gnawed it, and kept praising "so sweet", and the man's black face melted a little. Alas! Men are indeed childish creatures.
After eating breakfast, Xiaocao pointed in one direction and said, "Why don't we take a look over there today?" ”
The little prince of Burma looked at the mountain she pointed to, frowned, and said, "The terrain over there is steep, and there is a miasma forest and swamp at the foot of the mountain, and if you are not careful, you will be in danger of falling into it." Why don't we go back next time we find the right guide? ”
"No, I have a way to deal with the miasma, as for the swamp, just go around!" Yu Xiaocao learned from the small mending stone that the aura of the mountain was very strong, and the mineral resources must be very rich, and he was determined to get it.
The little prince of Burma set his sights on King Xu, hoping that he would take care of his daughter-in-law. Unexpectedly, King Xu agreed without saying a word. Alas! It is said that King Xu's favorite wife has no bottom line, and he has seen it!
With a small mending stone to remind and guide the way, the group successfully bypassed the swamp and came to the miasma forest. In the dark mountain forest, wisps of colorful mist rise, and a layer of gorgeous clouds rises on the ground, which is very charming.
The little prince of Burma said with a solemn face: "I didn't expect it to be the most domineering peach blossom miasma." Once it is stained with peach blossom miasma, it begins to fester, then the skin and flesh, and finally penetrates deep into the bone marrow...... Your Excellency King Xu, Princess Niangniang, are you sure you want to go? ”
The mountain designated by Princess Xu, except for the devil's swamp under the mountain, is the highly poisonous peach blossom miasma forest, and it seems that this trip is going to be in vain.
Yu Xiaocao frowned slightly, and pulled out a powerful detoxification pill from the small medicine box. Xiao Mending Tianshi said, this kind of detoxification pill can deal with peach blossom miasma in minutes. However, if that mountain is really rich in jade mines, the peach blossom miasma in this forest must be removed, otherwise it will be more troublesome to mine!
Zhu Junyang saw his daughter-in-law take out a bottle from the bottles and cans she carried, took out a pill, grabbed it, stuffed it into her mouth, and said, "You wait here for a while, and the master will go to explore ...... first."
Hou Xiaoliang was so anxious that he was sweating, blocking the master's way: "Lord Wang, let's go down......"
"If there are other dangers in the woods, can you handle the kung fu of your three-legged cat?" Zhu Junyang stopped Hou Xiaoliang's movements with a look, "Good life to protect the princess, you can come when you go." ”
As he spoke, he took a leap and disappeared into the colorful mist. Su Ran saw that Xiaocao's eyes showed a worried look, and he also took a powerful detoxification pill and took it by himself: "I'll go and take a look, the two of them can take care of each other." ”
The two masters walked together, and Xiaocao's heart finally let go of half of it. However, as her man said, there are many dangers in the mountains and forests, and although the peach blossom miasma can't help them, she doesn't know if there are other unknown dangers.
Fortunately, the two did not let everyone wait, and half an hour later, two equally tall and straight figures, one black and one white, came out together.
Seeing King Xu and Chief Su coming out intact, the little prince of Burma's eyes were about to fall off. The poisonous and domineering peach blossom miasma, they are like entering a no-man's land. The little prince turned his gaze to the herb chest, and became enthusiastic.
You must know that there are many mountains and forests in Myanmar, and there are many miasma in the mountains, so you will accidentally get on the road. The eldest brother of the little prince of Burma, who has the most strength to compete for the throne, was framed by the third brother, entered the miasma forest, lingered on the sickbed for more than a year, and died. If there is such a pill, it is equivalent to an extra layer of protection for life. The little prince was thinking about what conditions to impress Princess Xu in exchange for a bottle of elixir.
"How?" Yu Xiaocao sprayed a potion on them, dissolving the toxicity contaminated on them, and asked anxiously.
"There is no living creature in the woods. The peach blossom miasma is so poisonous that all living things that enter it become dust. Fortunately, the forest is not very deep, and there are a lot of good things in the mountain you fancied. Zhu Junyang showed the basin-sized Ganoderma lucidum in his hand to his daughter-in-law, perhaps because the mountain has a natural protective layer of miasma and swamp, and there are countless elixirs in it. His daughter-in-law must have loved it!
Sure enough, Yu Xiaocao exclaimed: "Wow! That's an exaggeration, right? However, with this Ganoderma lucidum, I can start refining the longevity-prolonging 'longevity pill'! ”
"There should be a lot of precious herbs in it, after all, no one has been in it for so many years. However, there are not many herbs that the master knows, and when the master buys this mountain, even if the jade is not produced, it will not matter, and it will be the growth base of your medicinal materials! Zhu Junyang gently rubbed the top of his daughter-in-law's hair and said softly.
Xiaocao squinted her eyes, like a little fox who had just stolen a chicken. Pink bubbles rise in the air little by little...... The little prince of Burma was stunned, and suddenly jumped out and said: "This mountain, the little king gave it to you!" But...... Can this kind of medicine that can cure miasma be sold to Xiao Wang? ”
"Humph! The princess of this king likes the mountain and needs someone to send it? Zhu Junyang snorted unhappily, and the ice knife in his eyes poked at the little prince of Burma.
The little prince didn't know why King Xu suddenly became angry, scratched the back of his head, and said, "It's not to send, it's to exchange the mountain for the elixir." It's a change! ”
"I can't change it! This mountain master decided to buy it and give it to the princess, you can make a price! Zhu Junyang felt that his daughter-in-law should like the mountain of medicinal materials, so he made a decision arrogantly without waiting for the so-called jade master to investigate.
The little prince of Burma thought that the other party refused to change the medicine, and he was very depressed. Come to think of it, it is definitely not easy to prepare such a precious medicine, and it may contain precious medicinal materials. Whether there is jade in this mountain is another story, it is strange that people are willing to change!
The little prince gritted his teeth in pain and said, "Your Excellency King Xu, I will use a jade mine in exchange for the elixir in the princess's hand, do you think it will work?" ”
Zhu Junyang looked at his daughter-in-law, the elixir was hers, so he naturally wanted to ask for her opinion, which was the minimum respect between husband and wife.
Yu Xiaocao thought for a while, pointed to a mountain not far away, and said, "Forget about the jade mine, it's better to exchange it for the mountain over there!" ”
The little prince of Burma said in disbelief: "We haven't seen the mountains over there, and I don't know if we can produce jadeite." Moreover, there is no natural protective layer under that mountain, and the nearby villagers often come and go, and it is estimated that even if there are medicinal herbs, they have already been lighted. Princess, you have to think about it! ”
Yu Xiaocao nodded casually and said, "If you think about it, let's change that one!" Your Royal Highness the Little Prince, how many antidote pills do you say! ”
It turns out that the elixir is called the Detoxification Pill, does it mean that other poisons can also be cured? The little prince asked the doubts in his heart. The answer he got from Princess Xu made his heart burn. After thinking seriously for a while, he tentatively said, "Look, can you exchange ten antidote pills for it?" ”
Yu Xiaocao agreed without hesitation, took out a bottle of antidote pill, and the two parties signed a contract. Then, Xiaocao ordered two more mountains that Xiao Tianshi was optimistic about, and both signed a deal with Heyuan. And the hill in front of them, surrounded by miasma, was sold to them by the little prince of Burma at a very low price.
When a large amount of red gold was mined on this hill the following year, the little prince of Burma regretted that his intestines were blue. If it weren't for King Xu's strong strength, he would have torn up the contract and snatched the gold mine back.
And the few mountains that Xiaocao seemed to refer to at random also discovered jadeite mines soon after. Especially the one that was exchanged for the detoxification pill is not only very rich in mineral deposits, but also produces excellent jadeite. Compared to other jade mines in the hands of the little prince, it is not bad.
The little prince of Burma was very puzzled. When the contract was signed, neither side surveyed, but both mined valuable deposits. The other party's luck is too good, right? Is it really the pride of heaven who is blessed by God?
Does going against him mean fighting against heaven? The little prince's faith told him that he should obey the destiny of heaven and obey the fortune of heaven. Those who are protected by heavenly fortune can only be close and friendly, and cannot be disobedient. Maybe he can still touch the light of King Xu, which will help his great cause! Therefore, for these mineral deposits of King Xu in his territory, they will try to provide convenience and protection.
A few years later, when the little prince defeated many of his elder brothers and became the king of Burma, he was even more sure that it was the fortune of King Xu that made his road to succession so smooth. Since then, as the king of Burma, his attitude towards the Ming Dynasty has been more respectful and pious, and there has been no large-scale war in the southwest frontier for decades. That's an afterword.
