Text Chapter 108 The Little Guy Who Eats Crystal Coins (I)
And no one here appreciated their dress, and the cave master ignored them, only knowing to practice non-stop. While the two of them took care of Miao Yi's diet so that he could practice at ease, they also slowly entered the state of practice.
Wild beasts were rampant on the island, but they dared not approach this area. Black Charcoal was like a watchdog. If anyone dared to come to the door to cause trouble, he would immediately jump up excitedly, swinging his tail and jumping his hooves happily, just like a cat catching a mouse, chasing it tirelessly.
Moreover, the 100 little guys were now free-range, and the wild beasts that broke into this area could easily become their meals.
Black Charcoal did not need anyone to take care of him. When he wanted to eat something, he did not need to say hello to anyone. He went into the sea to toss and turn, and ran back to take a nap after eating. He really liked this kind of life surrounded by the sea and no one disturbed him. It seemed that his swimming skills were getting better and better.
When he was full, he would occasionally drag a big fish out of the sea to improve the food for others.
Miao Yi would come out of retreat once every quarter, and ride the raft alone to cast spells and ride the wind and waves, and then quietly return to Donglai Cave to inquire about the situation on the territory.
In fact, under normal circumstances, there would be nothing to do, just to summon the troops to show up to prove that they are still there, and then quietly disappear.
The sun was shining brightly on the sea, and the blue waves were endless. Standing under the shade of the trees on the top of the mountain and looking at the sea around, Xue'er suddenly said in surprise: "Sister, the cave master is back."
Miao Yi came alone on the waves like riding the waves, and the two girls immediately ran down the mountain.
Miao Yi jumped ashore on a raft tied with three logs, and the two girls saluted and said: "Cave Master!"
Miao Yi smiled and nodded, and led the two back to the cave. When he walked to the entrance of the cave, he waved his hand casually, and hundreds of little guys immediately emerged from the storage ring, buzzing and flapping their wings to the tree trunk beside to hide in the shade, as if they still didn't like the sun.
After entering the cave, Miao Yi didn't even say a word, turned around and sat cross-legged on the stone couch, and continued to practice.
The two girls looked at each other, seeming a little disappointed. They dressed up carefully to welcome the cave owner back, but the cave owner didn't seem to see it.
Outside the cave, an illusory figure gradually condensed. It was none other than the peerless Lao Bai, who appeared as if from a dream, with frosty white hair hanging down his temples and a green cloak moving without wind.
Standing with his hands behind his back, Lao Bai slowly raised his head, and his deep starry eyes fell on the little guys lying on the tree trunk. He nodded slightly and said, "It's almost done."
He showed his palm, and a handful of golden crystals slowly flew up from his palm, floating in front of the little guys and shaking.
The little guys immediately twisted their heads, and the tentacles on their heads shook faster and faster, as if they had found some delicious food. They flapped their wings and flew up, rushing towards the suspended golden crystals.
Lao Bai waved his hand casually, and the golden crystals fell silently to the ground. The swarming little guys immediately pounced on the ground, caught the golden crystals and chewed them, eating them happily.
There were footsteps in the cave, and Qian'er and Xue'er came out. They pouted slightly, as if they were quite disappointed with Miao Yi's indifference.
Standing with his hands behind his back, Lao Bai turned his head and looked at the two of them, shook his head slightly and smiled, which was really a smile that could conquer the city.
The two girls didn't seem to see Lao Bai at all. Lao Bai was clearly standing in front of them, but their attention was on the ground. They ignored this handsome man, which was a waste of heaven for women. Instead, they stared at the little guys holding the golden crystal and biting it on the ground with their mouths wide open.
The figure of Lao Bai with a slight smile gradually blurred, and slowly dissipated into the invisible like a shadow.
"Sister, what happened to them?" Xue'er looked up in surprise.
"I don't know!" Qian'er shook her head and quickly ran back to the cave with her skirt lifted up.
After a while, Miao Yi, who had temporarily interrupted his practice, came out behind Qian'er who was walking hurriedly.
"Master, it's right here. Look, they are actually eating coins." Qian'er pointed at the little guys on the ground and said.
Miao Yi stared at the ground in astonishment, slowly squatted down, and looked at the greedy little guys with suspicion.
He thought he was seeing things wrong. How could the little guys eat such hard things? You must know that the hardness of crystal coins is quite high. It is quite difficult for cultivators to extract the fine powder from them when refining magic weapons, which shows how hard the crystal coins are.
However, the creepy chewing sound of "crunching" was clear.
Miao Yi had to reach out and push away a few little guys, snatched a golden crystal to check it in his hand, but those little guys seemed very unhappy and protested to him. Seeing that the protest was ineffective, they turned around and squeezed into their companions to grab food.
Miao Yi, who was holding the golden crystal and turning it over and over, couldn't stop licking his lips. The golden crystal had obviously been bitten out of a gap.
"The claws are so sharp already?" Miao Yi reached out and grabbed a little guy to observe in his hand, and found that the limbs and chewing mouthparts were indeed different from when they were just hatched earlier. The texture could be seen clearly, and the individual was slightly larger.
He flipped his palm and showed a dagger, pressing the blade against the little guy's mouth. The little guy who was oppressed and resisted chewed and bit, and bang! The blade cut a rice grain of hole.
"Tsk tsk! He is so perverted at such a young age, what will happen when he grows up!" Miao Yi was surprised twice, let the little guy go, and Jin Jing also threw it back to the ground, stood up and asked the two women, "Did you throw this money to them to eat?"
He knew that his subordinates had given the two women a lot of coins as a tribute, just like he gave Qingju and the others.
The two hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands, "It's not us, we just found out when we just came out."
"Not you?" Miao Yi frowned. They had been together for so long, and he knew that the two girls would not lie to him, but where did the money come from?
Looking around, Heitan was still lying on the side of the cave, taking a nap, and the snake's tail was swaying.
That’s not right! If someone comes here, not to mention Heitan's guy will call the police, but today's little guys will also send messages to themselves. Keeping them free is to let them play this role.
"Could it be that you accidentally left it behind?" Miao Yi asked.
Unintentionally? The two girls shook their heads uncertainly.
You can't be uncertain about this kind of thing. It would be too dangerous if an outsider came to you without knowing it. Miao Yi looked around vigilantly and said, "Count your money to see if you have less money."
The two girls usually have nothing to do with money. They don't have to worry about food and clothing in Donglai Cave. As long as they want all kinds of clothing, materials and jewelry, Donglai City will deliver them. They don't need to pay, especially on this island. , I have money and nowhere to buy anything.
Therefore, the two of them basically did not carry any money with them. They quickly returned to the cave and found the money bag to count it.
After coming out with the money bag, the two said weakly: "More than a dozen coins are missing."
Miao Yi breathed a sigh of relief and pointed at the two of them.
