Chapter 57 Valley Discovery
The white tiger knew the situation was urgent, so it quickly searched the not-so-large valley and even went to the cliff face.
It lowered its nose and sniffed the ground repeatedly, carefully surveying the area. After confirming that no other strange beasts had come here, it gave Chen Xingheng a signal.
Chen Xingheng pulled Gu Qing's hand and walked inside. He didn't dare leave her there. In case something happened, he was afraid that rescue would be delayed, so it was better to keep her by his side.
The two slowly approached the cliff face, where a huge beehive stood at a height of about fifty or sixty meters above a person.
At first glance, it looked like a protruding boulder. Upon closer inspection, it was confirmed to be a beehive, which, if measured by human standards, would be at least forty or fifty square meters in size.
Occasionally, strange bees would fly in and out, and it was clear that they were quite different from the ones she had seen before; they were about six or seven centimeters long.
Gu Qing swallowed hard. "Won't these alien bees attack us?" There's always a buzzing vibration when the alien bees fly.
Chen Xingheng tightened his grip on her hand slightly. "When the white tiger came over, it released its aura. It's an A+ level, equivalent to the peak of level 7. Animals are naturally inclined to seek good fortune and avoid harm."
In addition, we severely injured these alien bees last time, and even the queen was deliberately injured by the captain to prevent her from advancing.
Therefore, these strange bees dared not come out when they encountered the familiar oppressive aura. Otherwise, we would have had a hard time even entering the valley, let alone getting here.”
Chen Xingheng examined the flowers; some had special effects, such as paralysis and aphrodisiac, but most were normal.
"That would be best. Let's pick these pure flowers first."
"Okay, but don't stray too far from me." He said, a little worried, and took out an energy box from his spatial storage, placing it in her hand. "You hold the box, I'll cut the flowers."
Gu Qing had no choice. Even if she insisted on getting her hair cut separately from him, he would be distracted. So she decided to just obediently follow him.
There were quite a few flowers in this area, and the two of them were busy working on it for a while. In the middle of it, Gu Qing felt hungry and ate a satiety pill that she had made herself.
She casually slipped one into Chen Xingheng's mouth as well. Chen Xingheng was cutting flowers at the time, and he swallowed it without hesitation.
After cutting down all the pure flowers and confirming that there was no immediate threat in the valley, he found a large rock for Gu Qing, half of which was embedded in the cliff face and the other half exposed, and let her sit there to rest.
The white tiger lay at her feet. Chen Xingheng looked around. He felt that it was no accident that so many pure flowers could grow here.
Moreover, the reason why the exotic plants moved into this valley once they recovered cannot be explained by mere coincidence.
With energy gathered in his sword, Chen Xingheng cut down the flowers and plants in the area, then began digging up the soil around the roots and moving the stones. He was busy working enthusiastically.
Gu Qing was not as physically strong as him and was already tired, so she didn't search with him. She sat on a big rock and leaned back against the cliff.
She used her right hand to dig at the small hole in the large rock beneath her buttocks with a short sword. Although the rock was hard, she had obtained the short sword by chance.
She had tested it before, and it was much sharper than a regular energy sword. Although she had never used it, she was used to keeping it as a collectible and had never thought of giving it away to someone else.
But even with such a sharp sword, digging into this stone was still very difficult. It took her a long time to dig the small hole, which was initially only big enough for the tip of the sword to go in, into the size of an egg. She measured it with her fist.
They continued digging, and soon discovered that the tip had hit something, making a colliding sound, but they couldn't dig any further.
She climbed down and lay down on the rock, took out a broom, and cleared out the rubble pit inside. She saw faint blue light at the bottom of the pit and wondered if she hadn't seen it clearly, so she took out a light source.
Shining a light into the pit, it did indeed glow with a soft blue light, interspersed with specks of gold.
She stood up and walked halfway around the stone, examining it carefully. Gu Qing felt that it should be a piece of jade rough. Although she had never gambled on stones before, she had seen others do so because of the availability of information.
He lay there and continued to observe. The halo of light shone into the blue light, accompanied by specks of gold, like a scene from the universe.
It's dreamy, enigmatic, and mysterious, making you want to explore it further.
Gu Qing took the sword and dug around a bit more. As more and more jade flesh was revealed, it was simply stunning.
She was excited, digging and scratching incessantly. What she didn't notice was that the large white tiger beside her had straightened up, its head resting on the boulder, also looking in that direction, its nostrils flaring.
Gu Qing sometimes disliked it and would push it, but it would still be in the same position in another place.
Chen Xingheng, who was conducting tests with the instrument, immediately stood up and turned around as the instrument flashed red light. He then rushed over to the boulder.
"What are you two doing?" The instruments in my hands started to vibrate, accompanied by the slightly restless buzzing of bees.
Gu Qing turned around when she heard his voice. "Xingheng, I found a beautiful stone. Can you dig it out for me?"
As she stood up and stepped aside, she swept the area twice with a small broom, revealing the pale blue halo, and the vibrations of the alien bees suddenly intensified.
