Chapter 279 Is this a toad? Isn’t this a golden toad?

Just by looking at the clothes worn by the corpses, everyone recognized them immediately.

These are Tuoba Ruoli's guards and the Shangguan family's guards.

It seems that they suffered heavy losses when it just fell.

However, after looking around, I didn't see the bodies of Lin Siqiong and Tuoba Ruoli, nor did I see Shangguan Xianrui's. They should still be alive.

Everyone scattered and observed the traces on the ground, and soon found the direction in which Tuoba Ruoli and the others left.

It was a deep tunnel, and the further you looked inside, the darker it became.

Darkness not only represents the unknown, but also danger.

But no one present was afraid.

We've already come this far, there's no way we can turn back.

No matter what lies ahead, you must go and see it!

Yu Youning didn't even know what fear was. If Yu Tingwan hadn't stopped her, she would even want to walk in front.

The tunnel was very cold, but there was no smell of dampness.

Instead, there was an indescribable smell in the air.

It wasn't particularly smelly, but for a moment, I couldn't tell what the smell was.

This made everyone more confused, but they moved forward faster.

After walking for nearly two quarters of an hour, there was suddenly light ahead.

Seeing this, everyone hurried out of the tunnel.

This place is very open, like a cave dug out on purpose.

There are even tables, chairs and benches.

Around the cave, there are tunnels leading to other directions and several doors.

At this moment, sounds were coming from those doors.

Judging from the voice, it’s Shangguan Xianrui!

I don’t know what she discovered, but her voice was much more excited than before, sounding a little sharp and very harsh.

Just when everyone was wondering, Shangguan Xianrui and others walked out of the room.

As soon as he came out, he saw Yu Youning and others and was immediately shocked.

But soon, the shock on his face turned into a strong defensiveness.

"Why are you here?" Shangguan Xianrui asked unhappily.

Nangong Meng chuckled. "That's a really strange question. We all have treasure maps and are here to find treasure. If you can be here, why can't we? This isn't our Shangguan family's place!"

Shangguan Xianrui's face darkened, but she had to admit that Nangong Meng was right.

But when she thought of what she found inside, Shangguan Xianrui's eyes became gloomy.

I just thought that these people had just run away, but I didn't expect that they would come back to investigate.

Since they ran back and sought their own death, the only option was to leave them here so that the secrets here could be completely hidden...

"Shangguan Xianrui, you don't want to kill to silence the witness, do you?" Nangong Meng asked with a smile.

Shangguan Xianrui did not answer, but just by looking at the expression on her face, one could guess that this was what she was thinking.

Nangong Meng tutted his words and shook her head. "I thought you'd have grown after not seeing you for so long, but I didn't expect you'd only grow older, not smarter. The Shangguan family you brought with you can only tie with my Nangong family at best. How are you going to kill them and silence them? Are you relying on these Xiliang guards?"

What’s the difference between this and a fool’s dream!

"Besides," Nangong Meng changed the subject, "we're not the only ones looking for treasure. If those people find the top and see the big hole, even if they don't come down, they will definitely guess that there is something underneath. Do you think they will spread the news?

Even if you could really kill us all, you still wouldn't be able to hide the secrets here. You wouldn't be able to take anything away from here!"

After Nangong Meng finished speaking, Shangguan Xianrui was completely dumbfounded.

Even if she didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that what Nangong Meng said was absolutely right.

There are so many people looking for treasure this time!

It is impossible to silence someone!

Shangguan Xianrui no longer cared about Nangong Meng and looked towards Tuoba Ruoli, "Your Highness..."

Tuoba Ruoli glanced at Shangguan Xianrui indifferently and said, "It's just a gold mine. I, Xiliang, don't even care about it. I didn't come here for the gold mine."

"Then what is your Highness doing this for?" Shangguan Xianrui asked subconsciously.

Could it be that in this gold mine, there is something more precious than gold?

Tuoba Ruoli didn't answer, but just looked at Chu Huaixu.

Of course, she wanted to prove to Chu Huaixu that she was smarter and more powerful than Yu Youning!

Tuoba Ruoli walked towards Chu Huaixu and finally stopped three feet away from Chu Huaixu.

"Although I don't know who first started mining this gold mine, it's in Dayong after all, so it naturally belongs to Dayong. Although I discovered it first today, I have no intention of claiming it as my own.

I've already explored the rooms over there, and there's quite a bit of gold inside. There are also some smelting tools. Going into the other tunnels, there are all gold mines..."

Tuoba Ruoli spoke seriously, but Chu Huaixu's expression remained indifferent.

Even if Tuoba Ruoli didn't say anything, he could just let someone go in and take a look and see these things.

Could it be that Tuoba Ruoli thought that if she was the first to say these things, he would be extremely grateful to her?

Lin Siqiong looked at Tuoba Ruoli like this, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.

Over the years, she has been trying to get Tuoba to leave and follow Chu Huaixu, but she didn't expect that she was really persistent.

Even though her identity has changed now, she still cares so much about Chu Huaixu.

Xiliang has such a princess, and sooner or later she will become a laughing stock in the world!

If Tuoba Ruoli really succeeded to the throne, wouldn't Tuoba Ruoli hold Xiliang in his hands and directly present it to King Chu Huai!

Thinking of this, Lin Siqiong lowered her eyes.

When she returns to Xiliang and sees her mother-in-law, she will definitely explain the seriousness of the matter to her!

Compared to Tuoba Ruoli, she, Lin Siqiong, deserves the surname Tuoba! She deserves to be the crown princess!

While Tuoba Ruoli was staring at Chu Huaixu, Yu Youning was looking around.

She seemed to feel something different...

Yu Youning looked around again and finally decided on a direction. "Mom, I want to go over there and take a look!"

Yu Tingwan looked in the direction Yu Youning pointed, and saw a tunnel.

Although he didn't know why Yu Youning wanted to go there, Yu Tingwan still agreed, "Then let's go and take a look!"

When Yu Youning was about to leave, Chu Huaixu was the first to follow.

The others followed closely behind, even those people from the martial arts world followed without any hesitation.

Tuoba Ruoli looked at their departing backs, gritted her teeth, and followed them.

She had people explore this place, and there was a gold mine over there, but there was nothing there at all!

Yu Youning did this simply to attract Chu Huaixu's attention!

She wanted to see how Yu Youning would end up if she couldn't find anything later!

At this time, Yu Youning was running forward with all his might.

The further she went, the more obvious her feeling became.

The Teng Snake, which followed Yu Youning closely, became more excited as they moved forward.

Chu Huaixu was only slightly behind, and he saw all the performances of Yu Youning and Tengshe. He felt curious but also confused.

Finally, after running for a quarter of an hour, I finally got out of the tunnel and arrived at a tunnel that was being excavated.

There are various tools scattered here, all used for mining.

Some things have begun to rot over time.

Just looking at the degree of decay of these tools, you can tell that no one has been here for a long time.

But when they got here and stood still, they could hear some sounds.

The sound was like something colliding with each other.

The sound is crisp and has a metallic texture.

Yu Youning tilted his ear to listen carefully, crouched down, and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.

Everyone looked at Yu Youning's actions, not only feeling curious, but also marveling at Yu Youning's courage!

Yu Youning walked around a shelf and finally saw a golden object in the angle between the shelf and the stone wall.

It only has three legs and its mouth is open, spitting out gold.

In front of it, there were pieces of broken gold.

This is the legendary golden toad!

When the golden toad saw Yu Youning, it didn't run away. Instead, it blinked and jumped directly towards Yu Youning.

"ah!"

Yu Youning screamed and turned around and ran away.

"Mother! A toad is chasing me!"

Yu Youning shouted and ran faster.

When everyone heard Yu Youning's words, many of them burst into laughter.

This is what a girl of this age should be like!

If you really aren't afraid of anything, then...

Before they could think further, they saw the toad that Yu Youning had mentioned.

Looking at the golden toad that was running and spitting out gold, everyone couldn't laugh anymore.

Is this a toad?

Isn’t this a golden toad?

When others saw her, they wanted to hug her, but Yu Youning was so scared that she screamed?

Yu Youning had already run to Yu Tingwan's side, hid behind Yu Tingwan, stuck his head out, and looked at the golden toad with only his eyes exposed.

At the same time, the golden toad also saw Yu Youning, and jumped towards Yu Youning again, spitting gold even faster.

If it could talk, it would definitely say: Look, look! I'm spitting out gold for you to see!

But it can't speak, and Yu Youning doesn't understand what it means.

Yu Youning clutched Yu Tingwan's clothes tightly, "Mother, mother, it's coming!"

Everyone, "..."

Tuoba Ruoli watched this scene, his face twisted with anger, and he shouted to the guards behind him, "Go, capture this golden toad!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Yu Youning.

Why are you pretending!

You’re pretending to be scared now, but you’ll be scrambling for it later!

Since Yu Youning wants to pretend, she will just have someone capture Jin Chan!

Not only did all of Tuoba Ruoli's guards rush towards Jin Chan, but the Shangguan family's guards also rushed over at the same time.

When the people from Dayong saw this, they immediately became angry.

"What do you want to do?"

"This is Dayong's golden toad!"

"Let's see who dares to take action!"

A group of people rushed forward, and hundreds of people fought together in an instant, turning into a mess.
