Shovelful after shovelful of soil was thrown out, along with many broken grass roots. Chen Feng couldn't understand why the grass roots were still so resilient even though it had been dead for so long.
Shouldn't it become increasingly brittle?
As more and more soil was dug out, a pit gradually took shape.
After shoveling the shovel a few more times, Chen Feng finally felt that it was about right.
He switched to a small shovel and began shoveling soil.
The detector made no sound when the first shovel was used.
The second shovelful yielded many clods of earth, but still no goods.
And so, Chen Feng dug for five shovelfuls before the detector finally beeped.
Chen Feng lightly shook the shovel and continued using the detector.
He didn't start digging until there was only half a shovelful of soil left in the shovel.
As soon as he reached out, Chen Feng touched something quite familiar.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a small gold nugget, which Chen Feng estimated to be worth around seven or eight hundred yuan.
After putting the gold nuggets into the bottle, Chen Feng continued walking forward with the items in his hand.
After walking for about eight or nine minutes, the system gave a prompt. Chen Feng looked around and suddenly felt a cool sensation on his face.
He looked at the sky and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Upon closer inspection of the black probe rod, it was indeed gradually becoming damp.
The dark clouds haven't arrived yet, but Chen Feng's side has already been affected.
"Dude, I just got here," Chen Feng said with a sigh, looking up at the sky.
A light rain is fine, but he just hopes there won't be a heavy rain, the kind that would make it impossible to wash away the water.
He could only pray silently, there was nothing he could do. He could only look around, find the location of the goods, and go over to start digging a hole.
There were still many weeds, and Chen Feng used a small pickaxe to dig around on the ground, sending many grass roots and clods of soil flying.
When the surface had been scraped to a pulp, he switched to a shovel and started digging a hole.
It's definitely much easier to dig after digging, the soil is very loose, and the process is much faster.
But after digging for a while, it stopped working when it reached the area below that hadn't been dug up.
The soil is very firm, a bit hard, and clump together.
Chen Feng dug the hole with all his might, sometimes not even filling it with a single shovel, only managing to dig about half a shovelful.
The key issue is that this thing is quite deep, which left Chen Feng somewhat helpless.
After such tireless efforts, Chen Feng dug for quite a while before finally finishing the hole. When he switched to the small shovel, he felt as if fine raindrops were falling on his arm.
Chen Feng stretched out his hand and felt it carefully. It was indeed the case; the rain had intensified and turned into a drizzle.
Shaking his head and ignoring it, Chen Feng picked up his small shovel and continued working on the soil.
After about three or four shovelfuls, Chen Feng found the goods.
This is a silver ingot, quite large, but Chen Feng tossed it around and, despite its size, it seemed to be worth only six or seven hundred.
"Alas, even the largest piece of silver is no good. A tiny grain of gold is worth more than such a large piece of silver."
"This huge silver coin is only worth six or seven hundred." Chen Feng sighed and threw the silver coin into his newly opened bottle of Gatorade.
Carrying his tools, Chen Feng continued walking forward, wiping his arm.
Although it wasn't very noticeable, when I wiped my hand, it was already completely wet.
Chen Feng flicked his hand and lit a cigarette.
He had a premonition that he would soon be unable to smoke.
Although it was drizzling, the cigarette was fine; I finished it before it got extinguished.
After finishing his cigarette, Chen Feng's system gave him another notification.
Chen Feng looked around to confirm the location of the goods, then took a few more steps forward, squatted down, and picked up a shovel to dig a hole.
As Chen Feng squatted down, he noticed that the top layer of soil on the ground was slightly damp.
The dark clouds overhead seemed to be getting a little closer to Chen Feng, but Chen Feng wasn't sure.
He dug the hole with a shovel, and one good thing about the rain was that it stopped raising dust.
Every time Chen Feng went home at night, his arms were covered in a layer of fine sand, but this time that wasn't the case.
After all, if you just mix it with mud, where would the sand and soil come from?
Chen Feng dug the hole shovel by shovel, and soon felt that he had dug it up. The location of this thing was not deep, so it was quite easy to dig.
After digging for a while, Chen Feng switched to a small shovel and started shoveling the soil.
In no time, Chen Feng found the goods.
After rummaging around for a while and not seeing the goods, Chen Feng gently shook the shovel.
After shaking the shovel several times, removing more than half a shovelful of soil, Chen Feng finally saw where the goods were.
He reached out and picked up the item. It was a small gold nugget, which Chen Feng estimated was worth about two thousand yuan.
The haul was pretty good. Chen Feng threw the goods into a bottle, tidied up his tools, and continued on his way.
After seven or eight minutes, the drizzle finally turned into raindrops, sparsely pattering on the ground.
Chen Feng sighed softly and looked around at his position.
The object was located to Chen Feng's right. He walked over, squatted down, and reached out to brush away the damp weeds.
He could even imagine that once the withered grass roots came into contact with water, they would become increasingly tough.
He pulled a small pickaxe out of his bag, too lazy to even try using a shovel, and started digging haphazardly.
Countless bits of grass flew up in response, although some of them didn't fly around because they were wet from the rain.
However, a large portion was still dug up. Chen Feng fanned the air slightly with his hand, squinted his eyes, and then continued to dig with his pickaxe.
Before long, Chen Feng had dug up all the surface soil.
Chen Feng switched to a shovel and began digging. As each shovelful of soil was thrown out, the pit grew larger and larger.
The pit was quite deep, and Chen Feng dug for a long time without finding a spot. He tried several different positions and shoveled as deep as possible.
After a while, Chen Feng felt it was about time, so he switched to a small shovel and started shoveling soil.
Because the pit was quite deep, Chen Feng had to lie flat on the ground to get through the soil. The sand was wet with water and gave off a muddy smell.
After struggling to reach the target with several shovels, Chen Feng's detector finally went off.
He gently shook the shovel, and before he could even pass it over the detector, he saw something emerge from the soil.
Upon seeing that cheerful color, Chen Feng instinctively smiled.
He reached out and picked up the goods; the size of the gold nugget exceeded Chen Feng's expectations.
"Wow, all that grass ash I inhaled wasn't for nothing." Chen Feng wiped it with his hand and chuckled.
He estimated that the gold nugget was worth around 21,000 to 22,000 yuan.
Although it rained today, the harvest was really good.
Is this God's compensation to him? He can't let you get soaked for nothing.
If that's really the case, then Chen Feng has a classic line to shout out.
"Let the storm rage on!"
Chen Feng thought about it for a moment, then felt a little ashamed of his childish behavior and decided against it.
Carrying his tools, he continued walking forward, but after only a few steps, the system beeped again.
