He switched to a shovel, scooped up a spadeful of soil, passed it over the detector, and when the detector made no sound, he scooped up another spadeful.
As the shovel passed over the detector, it emitted a "whoosh" sound, and Chen Feng couldn't help but smile.
Let's say the goods are coming out soon.
He gave the shovel a slight shake with his right hand and continued to run it over the detector. Soon, something appeared in front of Chen Feng.
It was a dark, elongated object, probably a few centimeters long.
"Ah, what's this?" Chen Feng reached out and picked it up, examining it carefully from all angles.
This doesn't look like silver, and gold is out of the question; it doesn't match up at all.
There were some rust marks on the outside of the long strip. Chen Feng rubbed it with his hands, and his fingers turned red.
This is just rust!
"Damn, what's going on? Why is it scrap metal?" Chen Feng was dumbfounded. This was the system's notification, so why is scrap metal appearing this time?
Could it be that the system overheated because of the heat?
He stood up and, somewhat unwilling to give up, rubbed the piece of scrap iron, hoping it might be something like iron-clad gold. However, after rubbing off the outer shell, the inside was still scrap iron, and he couldn't find anything unusual no matter how he turned it over.
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes, suddenly realizing something. He opened the system panel and found that the system notification was still there.
He immediately understood what was going on, and speechlessly tossed the piece of scrap metal aside, letting out a long sigh.
It turned out the goods were still within the area, but Chen Feng hadn't actually dug them up. There just happened to be a piece of scrap metal in that area, which Chen Feng managed to dig out.
Chen Feng had never encountered anything like this before, so he didn't react for a moment.
"I told you the system wouldn't malfunction, even if I did one day, the system wouldn't." Chen Feng picked up the detector and continued searching for the cargo hidden underground.
After a few rows, Chen Feng's detector went off. He squatted down and continued to pull back the pile with his small pickaxe.
After giving it a quick seven or eight squeezes, Chen Feng pulled the detector over and ran it over the mound of earth.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng had already dug out the goods. He used a shovel to search the pile of dirt for a bit, but finding nothing, he could only obediently shovel the dirt away one shovel at a time.
After about four or five shovelfuls, the detector sounded. Chen Feng shook off half a shovelful of soil and began rummaging through the shovel.
Soon, a silver coin appeared in Chen Feng's hand. He blew on the coin, and then tossed it into the bottle with some satisfaction.
Sixty or seventy is not a small amount; what more could you ask for?
Chen Feng stood up, packed his things, and was about to walk forward when he noticed that the system notification had not disappeared.
Although there is a delay in the system's inventory detection, there is none at other times. Once you have the goods in your hand, the notification will disappear in the next second, and the reaction is extremely fast.
Chen Feng stood there, unable to help but chuckle.
"Strange things happen every year, and they all happened on the same day. So this is a double-yolk egg?"
I don't know if there's still some stock in the area, or if there's still some undiscovered stock in the pit.
Chen Feng took the detector and probed into the pit. Sure enough, the detector made a sound the next second.
It really is a case of two birds with one stone.
"Little sister, if it were someone else, they would have really missed you."
Chen Feng squatted down again with his small shovel, feeling like he wouldn't be able to get out of this circle today.
Indeed, it's true that almost all gold prospectors leave after finding something and continue exploring; who would bother digging a hole that's already been dug?
After all, the odds of getting a double yolk are extremely low; for the average person, it's practically the same as winning the lottery.
Chen Feng used a small shovel to dig back and forth in the pit, and soon the mound of earth was dug higher and higher.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Feng's shovel finally made a sound.
"Ooh-woo~"
"Dude, you're finally out."
Chen Feng took a deep breath and gently shook the soil out of the shovel.
Soon, a small, dark yellow piece appeared in front of Chen Feng.
"Oh ho."
Chen Feng burst out laughing when he saw that dark yellow color.
"Haha, you even knew to set up cover up there, you're pretty smart, bro."
"Too bad, I have a system. Aren't you angry?"
Chen Feng rubbed the gold leaf with his hand, chuckled, and tossed it into the bottle.
This gold piece is worth about four hundred yuan, which is quite good.
With the gold piece now in Chen Feng's possession, the system notification disappeared completely, proving that Chen Feng had thoroughly searched this area.
He packed up his tools, picked up the detector, and walked forward.
The temperature is still quite cool right now, just right, but it'll probably get hot soon.
There were a few bushes ahead, and Chen Feng headed straight for them, for he hadn't forgotten that the bushes were his gold mine.
Moreover, possessing a powerful weapon, Chen Feng was always eager to try it out. He was currently hoping there was gold under the bushes so he could test the strength of his pickaxe.
Unfortunately, Chen Feng lingered by those bushes for a long time without the system beeping, so he could only shrug and continue walking forward.
After walking for a few minutes, Chen Feng looked around from time to time. He suddenly stopped and looked carefully at the bushes on his left.
He felt like something moved under the bushes just now.
Could there be other gold prospectors here?
He cautiously walked over there, carefully observing the bushes.
Just as he was about to approach the bushes, a snake suddenly slithered out from under the bushes and headed towards Chen Feng.
Holy crap!
This thing startled Chen Feng, and he quickly stepped back to make way for it.
The snake emerged from the bushes but didn't head straight for Chen Feng. Instead, it leisurely swam to the right and burrowed into the sand.
Chen Feng mustered his courage and took a few steps, then saw the small hole left on the ground after the snake slithered in.
"Holy crap, there are snakes in this cave?"
Upon seeing this, Chen Feng grinned, his expression slightly terrified.
You know, he peed in these kinds of holes quite a few times in this abandoned mine.
Chen Feng was naturally afraid of snakes, so he instinctively backed away, not wanting to get entangled with it.
However, after searching this place for so long, they hadn't heard anyone say they'd seen a snake. They figured they were just lucky to have stumbled upon one today, as snakes are rare in abandoned mines.
Just as Chen Feng was about to leave, a voice made him stop in his tracks.
“There is precious metal within a four-meter radius of the host!”
He heard the sound and slowly turned around, looking at the snake hole with tears welling up in his eyes.
"Big brother, stop messing with me, are you serious?"
To be honest, if he had a choice, he really wouldn't want to try to make money in front of a snake; it's just too scary.
But even knowing there's goods here, you can't just leave, can you?
He thought about it carefully and realized that the snake didn't have a triangular head or wide cheeks.
It looks like an ordinary grass snake.
