Chapter 343: First Exploration of the Great Snow Mountain
Everyone poked their heads out in amazement, and Eribe exclaimed even more happily, "Amon, how can you have gold coins in your pocket?"
As he spoke, he also reached into his pocket, and suddenly a strange expression appeared on his face: "I have it too!"
"Don't say it's you, I have it too. Rudy and Ellie both reached into their pockets and pulled out a money bag.
"Strange, where did you get the money bag?" Liao Ning and the others looked at each other.
Hao Meng reacted immediately and reminded: "Don't forget, this coat is not ours. β
Everyone immediately realized that these coats had belonged to the six members of the Lyme Academy before, and they rushed to give them over, but they forgot to take out the money bag inside.
At this time, Eribe had excitedly taken out the money bags in the other two coats, and counted them with a smile: "Yes, yes, there are thousands of gold coins in these six coats, which is a lot of money for us." β
Not to mention them now, even on weekdays, thousands of gold coins are a lot of wealth. What's more, now they are so poor that they can't find a single gold coin from head to toe.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have had such a headache for a few coats before.
It's just that Hao Meng hesitated and said: "Eribei, let's return these gold coins, such a large amount, those six people lost, I'm afraid they will be very anxious." β
"Why? We didn't steal it, they sent it to the door themselves, so I won't pay it back. Eribe immediately glared, "Since it's in my hands now." That's mine!"
Rudy also raised his eyebrows: "Amon is right, we are indeed short of money now, but we can't ask for this gold coin." Although the people of the Lyme Academy are indeed quite annoying, it will be very difficult for them to lose such a large amount of gold coins, right? And don't forget, if we forcibly take possession and not return it, won't it damage the reputation of our Dragon God Academy? If the Lyme Academy thinks that we are a group of robbers, how bad would it be?"
"That makes sense, not to mention that we're going to fight for the Ice Whisker Grass. Lime College is a serious opponent. If only it was because of this little money. If they go against us, it's a bit more than worth the cost. Belmy groaned.
Indeed, compared to 100,000 gold coins, thousands of gold coins are just a small amount of money.
"Sister......" Eribe was very reluctant to give up the thousands of gold coins in his hand. I couldn't help but look at Ellie. In his opinion. Ellie hated the Six of Lime Academy. Maybe he will support his Tiyì.
Just as he thought, Ellie was also extremely excited about the thousands of gold coins, coupled with the bad impression of the six members of the Lime Academy. It made her think about blocking this gold coin.
But what Hao Meng said was also very reasonable, which made her extremely entangled.
However, Ellie is Ellie in the end, and she is designated as the dean's successor by the dean's mother-in-law, and if she can't even make a statement on this issue, then she is not worthy of being the successor.
She took a deep breath and looked up, "Eribe, everyone is right, we shouldn't ask for this money. Not only that, but we have to find a way to get it back. β
"That'...... All right. Seeing that Ellie was opposed, Elibe reluctantly agreed.
"In that case, you give me the money bag, and I'll go out and find someone from Lyme Academy, and you can continue to discuss what we should do next. Yang Dongliang got up and said.
After thinking about it, everyone agreed, and gave the money bags to Yang Dongliang one after another.
Only Elibe, when he handed over the money bag, how attached and reluctant. Hao Meng patted Eribe on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, it won't be long before we have many, many gold coins, so many that you can't count them at all." β
"Really?" said Elibe's eyes lit up.
"Of course it's true, do you not believe me, or do you not believe yourself?" Hao Meng asked rhetorically.
When Eribe heard this, he simply pushed the money bag out completely: "Take it away, take it away!
"Yo, do you dare to call yourself a master?" Ellie pinched Eribe's scalp angrily.
Eribe immediately said aggrieved: "Sister, I was wrong!"
Everyone immediately burst into laughter, and Yang Dongliang also said goodbye to the big guy and went out.
Although there are thousands of people in the town now, it is not easy to find six people from them, but don't forget, the other party is from the famous Lime College, so it is naturally impossible to be unknown, and it should not be difficult to find an address.
After Yang Dongliang left, everyone continued to discuss, but after a round of discussion, they did not come to any conclusion. They planned to slow down for a while, wait for Hao Meng and the four of them to recover, and then go to Daxue Mountain.
It's just that the anxious Eribe, how could he wait so long?
"Tomorrow? No, no, it's too long, we'll wait for Yang Dongliang to come back. "Eribe is eager to try.
"When he comes back? Do you have enough time to rest? Don't forget, it's been freezing for a long time. Lazard was surprised.
Hao Meng also agreed: "It makes sense, we are already late, if it is too late, let alone eating meat, even if there is no soup residue left!"
"But your body ......," Liao Ning also hesitated.
Ellie was refreshed: "It doesn't matter, we don't have much of a problem with ourselves, if we have a bowl of hot soup, it should be about the same." β
"Okay, no problem, there's still some food here, I'll make you a bowl of soup. Liao Ning immediately got up and took action, while Belmy was on the side to help. As for Lasard and Qian Mingke, the two big men, they were completely watching from the sidelines.
It's not that they don't want to help, it's that the two girls don't let them join at all, and they all know how unpalatable the food cooked by these big men.
Soon, under the busyness of the two daughters, Hao Meng and the others drank a bowl of thick hot soup, and it was really a very happy thing to be able to drink such delicious food in such a cold and snowy environment.
Just when they were drinking and sweating, Yang Dongliang hurried back.
"You're back so soon?, have you found someone from Lyme Academy?" Lazard immediately greeted him.
"Nope. I inquired, it seems that the people from Lyme Academy have entered the Great Snow Mountain, not only that, but many other mercenary groups have entered, and it seems that something is happening in the Great Snow Mountain. Yang Dongliang said solemnly.
"What?" Lazard frowned when he heard this, "They are all in such a hurry to the snowy mountains, could it be that the ice beard grass has appeared?"
Eribe immediately put down the hot soup and jumped up: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's hurry up, if we wait for our bodies to completely recover, I'm afraid that the ice beard grass will have been snatched away by someone!"
"But your body ......," Yang Dongliang was surprised.
"What kind of body do you care about at this time?" Hao Meng also put down the bowl and got up. "Eribe is right. Now is the time to wait, there is no need to worry about other things, just go now. β
Rudy and Ellie also expressed the same opinion, since Hao Meng didn't have any problems with the four of them. Lazard: Naturally, they will not object. Hurriedly put on their respective coats. Immediately opened the door and walked out, followed by Hao Meng and the others.
When they went out and came out into the street. I really found out that the town is completely different from just now.
Although it was snowing like goose feathers just now, the streets were still very lively, and there were many people coming and going to do business. But now it has become extremely deserted, as if it is completely the same place as the bustling scene just now.
"There are so few people, it seems that something really happened to the big snow mountain, let's hurry up. Rudy looked around.
Hao Meng turned his head to look at Lazard: "But then again, now that the normal way into the mountain has been blocked by the troops of the Northern Empire, where should we enter from?"
"Don't worry, we didn't investigate in vain before, so we naturally have a way. Lasad smiled quite proudly, "What's more, the Great Snow Mountain is so big, even if the Northern Empire wants to block it, it is impossible to block it, come with me." β
As he spoke, Lazard led the way, and Hao Meng and the others put on their coats and hats, and followed closely behind.
It's just that the wind and snow now seem to be increasing, which makes Hao Meng and them a little depressed, although they said that they got a coat, but why didn't they get a few pairs of windbreakers?
Soon, under the leadership of Lazard, Hao Meng and the others came out of the town of Del Yi and came to a dense wooded field.
And inside this forest, there is an endless snowy mountain, but the problem is that Hao Meng and they don't dare to enter it rashly, because not everywhere can enter the mountain.
Lazard walked in front and said: "Everyone be careful, follow me, don't lose it, this is the way we have finally discovered, we can go directly to the interior of the Great Snow Mountain." β
Hao Meng and the others followed behind, carefully stepping on the footprints that Lasard had stepped on in front of them.
I have to say that the snow here is really fluffy enough, and it is very deep, and if you step on it, you can step on it at least twenty or thirty centimeters deep, almost reaching your knees.
From time to time, some snowflakes fell from the woods and fell on everyone's bodies.
It's a great place to play under normal circumstances, but the big guys don't have that in mind.
After carefully turning through the woods, Lazard couldn't help but stop, and sighed at his hands, rubbing them a few times: "Okay, we have now really come to the foot of the Great Snow Mountain, and further on, it is the Great Snow Mountain." β
"So, what does this Ice Whisker Grass look like? Hao Meng asked.
Everyone nodded hurriedly, if they didn't know what the ice beard grass looked like, then they would still find a fart, even if it was sent to them, I was afraid that they wouldn't know it.
Belmy took over and said: "We have inquired, it is said that an old man who has lived in the town of Delyi for sixty years said that the ice beard grass is about ten centimeters long, white in color, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, and has many thin whiskers at the roots, which generally grow in the soil five to ten centimeters deep. β
Hao Meng and the others all firmly remembered the characteristics of the Ice Whisker Grass, but when they heard the last sentence, they all frowned.
It doesn't grow on the surface, but it grows in the soil five to ten centimeters deep, although it is not deep, but the problem is that now the entire snowy mountain is covered with a layer of snow dozens of centimeters thick, how can this be found?
You can't dig up the entire Snow Mountain, right? (To be continued......)
