Chapter 17 Mining Energy Stone
Mo Qi shook his head helplessly and said to Sheng Jinxiu:
"She's a new person logging in for the first time today."
As he said that, he handed all the melon seeds in his hand to Sheng Jinxiu.
"What is this?"
Sheng Jinxiu looked at the pile of strange things in her hand and asked in confusion.
Mochi explained to her:
"This is something called melon seeds. They're delicious. You can peel off the outer shell like this and eat the kernel inside."
As he spoke, he took a melon seed from Sheng Jinxiu's hand, peeled off the shell and demonstrated to her. Because he knew that Sheng Jinxiu would definitely not choose to eat it with her mouth, he only showed her how to peel it with her hands.
Sheng Jinxiu frowned. This was too much trouble. And it must be very painful for her to peel her nails like this!
As if he could see Sheng Jinxiu's dilemma, Mo Qi took the melon seeds from Sheng Jinxiu again:
"Okay, okay, my lady, I'll peel it for you."
The voice was obviously full of doting.
Liu Qingqing was speechless. "You guys just pretend you can't see me?" But she was very self-aware. Although she liked the girl, she wouldn't take the initiative to be a light bulb. So she said goodbye to Mo Qi and said she was going to look somewhere else.
Mo Qi also realized that he had forgotten about Liu Qingqing, a living person, and felt a little embarrassed. He laughed twice and asked Liu Qingqing where she was going and what she was going to do, and whether he could help her in any way.
Liu Qingqing shook her head. She knew nothing about this and didn't know what to do.
Mo Qi suggested that if Liu Qingqing really couldn't find anything to do, she could look for energy stones.
Energy Stones are a crucial interstellar energy source, containing vast quantities of energy. Energy Masters can extract this energy from Energy Stones, using it for a wide range of applications, including the production of nutrient solutions and mecha energy.
Energy Stones are relatively rare in the interstellar world, found only on a few fixed planets, making them extremely valuable. Later, during field research in the Metaverse, a vast quantity of Energy Stones was discovered, buried extensively underground. Consequently, many people in this world make a living mining Energy Stones.
Liu Qingqing agreed. She was in urgent need of a profitable business. With her special abilities, mining energy stones would be a simple task for her.
Since there was someone to help, why not do it? Moreover, Mo Qi seemed to have a high status. If more mining was done, Mo Qi's status could be used as a deterrent.
Seeing that Liu Qingqing agreed, Mo Qi let Sheng Jinxiu play by herself for a while, and he took Liu Qingqing to the place where energy stones were mined. However, he would only lead the way and return in a while.
Sheng Jinxiu was unhappy. Why did they exclude her? It was clear that Mo Qi was not like this before. Sheng Jinxiu puffed her lips and glared at Liu Qingqing. It was because of this guy that Mo Qi didn't take her with him.
"Hmph, I don't want to! I want to go with you and mine energy stones too."
Sheng Jinxiu yelled at Mo Qi and left angrily.
Mo Qi was completely bewildered. Why was she angry again? Thinking of him giving Liu Qingqing an apologetic smile, he quickly went after Sheng Jinxiu.
What else could Liu Qingqing do? She followed them while eating their dog food.
After walking for a while, they finally arrived at the place where energy stones were mined. At this time, Sheng Jinxiu had been almost coaxed by Mo Qi, and Liu Qingqing followed behind them with a helpless look on her face.
Why does this plot feel like she is a green tea who interferes? So at this juncture, she chooses to keep silent.
Who knows how words spoken at this time will be misunderstood.
She sighed as she looked at the people around her working hard. The people working here were basically not dressed as exquisitely as Sheng Jinxiu and Mo Qi. It seemed that they were just ordinary people who earned a living.
Mo Qi said to Liu Qingqing:
"From here to there, there's a large area where energy stones are mined. If you want to mine energy stones, just come here. Mining energy requires luck. Some people can dig a large hole in the ground and still find only a few energy stones, while others can dig out several top-grade energy stones with just one shovel."
As he said this, he was about to take Sheng Jinxiu away from this place. This dress was Sheng Jinxiu's favorite, and it would be easy for the dust here to get her clothes dirty.
Sheng Jinxiu didn't know what she was holding back, she just didn't want to leave. She raised her head towards Liu Qingqing:
"Hey, little girl, I want to challenge you to a duel. Let's dig for energy stones here. Whoever digs the most wins. What do you think? Do you want to compete?"
Liu Qingqing shook her head and thought to herself, I really don’t want to bully you, but what if you cry?
Sheng Jinxiu thought Liu Qingqing was scared and smiled happily:
"Humph, I knew you wouldn't dare. I'm telling you, stay away from Mo Qi from now on. If I find out you're pestering him again, I'll beat you to a pulp."
Liu Qingqing was puzzled. Why did this sound so much like the words of a vicious female supporting character in a novel?
She quickly corrected Sheng Jinxiu's words:
"No, no, I'm not interested in him. It's okay to stay away from him, but I like you so much, little sister. I don't want to stay away from you."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Really, really, stinky man, whatever, I just want to be with my little sister. Little sister, you are so beautiful, it must be very comfortable to hug you."
Mo Qi watched the two girls discuss his whereabouts with a serious face. How did he suddenly become a stinky man? And what did Sheng Jinxiu mean by that? Did she mean that she was jealous when she told Qingchen to stay away from him?
Thinking of this, Moqi felt a sweet feeling in his heart.
Sheng Jinxiu's cheeks flushed. She remembered that there were some guys who were not particular about gender. Could this girl not be particular about gender? She didn't want that.
Sheng Jinxiu shook off the goose bumps on her arms, pulled Mo Qi and left.
When they left, Liu Qingqing heard Mo Qi asking Sheng Jinxiu what she had just said, whether she was jealous, etc.
Then Sheng Jinxiu grabbed Mo Qi's arm and turned him 180 degrees.
Moqi jumped up with a cry of "Ah".
Liu Qingqing shook her head. What a pair of bickering lovers!
Not thinking about anything else, Liu Qingqing looked at the people mining in front of her, and took out a shovel from the space and started mining.
She randomly found a corner with few people and used her earth-related ability to sense the situation inside the ground. In an instant, the scene inside the ground appeared in her mind.
Liu Qingqing smiled happily, picked up a shovel and started digging in the direction detected.
This is the place with the most abundant energy. It seems that the energy stones here are of the best quality.
She dug one piece after another and stored what she dug into the space. Before long, she had dug many energy stones of extremely high quality.
Just as she was about to start digging the land in front of her, she suddenly felt footsteps approaching from behind. Liu Qingqing did not stop at all, but her body became more and more tense. When she dug out the energy stone, she heard the sound of a shovel breaking through the air behind her.
