Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 34: Mine Resources
Zhang Yu came home after leaving the hall. Hearing her aunt pass out on the news of death, she even ran faster than anyone.
Crossing through the courtyard, it went straight into Zhang Bing's room. When the door opened, Zhang Yu could see his aunt lying on the bed wearing light green clothes.
"Aunt ...."
Although her aunt was always chatty and noisy, but to Zhang Yu her aunt was a substitute for the mother figure she had never seen. If there was someone very valuable in the world besides his father, it would be his aunt.
"How is he doing?" asked Zhang Long who had just arrived.
"It looks fine."
Zhang Yu approached about to check. But suddenly Zhang Bing opened his eyes while calling Zhang Yu.
"Xiao Yu!"
The two people who were already standing by the bed were shocked. Zhang Bing slowly rubbed his forehead and sat down his body. When he saw Zhang Yu right next to him, he could not bear to directly hug him.
"Xiao Yu's! You're really back?!"
Zhang Yu did not know since when this aunt of his could foresee. Even just waking up from fainting knew of his arrival. Absolutely amazing!
"Huh! I seem to be forgotten here. Hey, didn't you guys take me?" Zhang Long reprimanded in a satirical tone. He folded his hands and stood up like a sulking man.
But instead of caring about it, Zhang Bing still ignored him. He only gave a cynical glance and a mocking smile. "My hands are only two, if you want to be hugged close to the wall. You can hug as long as you can."
Zhang Long glanced at the walls of the room and snorted.
"I'd better drink some wine outside! You guys completely forgot me."
...
A quiet night was the expected end. The day starts with the morning.
Zhang Yu quietly left the residence without Zhang Bing being caught. He slipped out of the room through the window and headed east with a white sheet of paper.
It was a copy of the resource mine location map according to his memory. Because all this time no one knew the existence of the mine, making Zhang Yu curious to find it.
Finally, after a time-consuming journey Zhang Yu arrived at a cave. The cave has a shape like a snake mouth and is slightly indented into the ground.
"Is there really something in here?" Zhang Yu stepped carefully. At that time the heat energy wave felt very stinging.
Of course such a trivial matter could not hold back Zhang Yu's footsteps. By circulating the Qi to envelop his body he walked with vigor.
One hundred meters, two hundred meters. Zhang Yu saw nothing but the patterned walls of the cave. But after walking another hundred meters, he could not believe what was before him.
An egg ... No, it looks more like a transparent pouch hanging from the root of the cave ceiling with an ape inside. Silver-haired ape with deep brown eyelids.
"He is even weaker than a first-rate spiritual beast."
Zhang Yu looked at the little ape before him and could not feel the power from it. But strangely these apes are still breathing. There are also signs of life.
Out of curiosity, Zhang Yu touched the surface of the transparent pouch with his index finger.
Who would have thought that the transparent pouch turned out to be so fragile. Just one touch the transparent bag is torn and crushed.
Zhang Yu reacted quickly to the small ape before falling down. The monkey that had closed its eyes and was unaffected by the movements outside now started to open its eyes.
Zhang Yu himself had no idea what this little ape was doing. He put the little ape on the ground but immediately jumped on his shoulder.
Even movement is very agile. His hands were squeezing clothes like he was afraid of being left behind.
"What do these apes do?" Zhang Yu whispered in his heart. Every time he wanted to keep her away, the little ape tightened his grip.
"Little ape, do you want to come with me?" When Zhang Yu asked like that, the little ape looked delighted as if he understood Zhang Yu's intentions. He changed his position and sat on his shoulders quietly.
This naturally made Zhang Yu surprised. Didn't expect the ape who only had two feet tall could understand the language.
"alright. Because you want to come, so let's explore this cave deeper."
With his new friend, Zhang Yu once again traveled two hundred meters inward. Until then, the glint that seemed on the cave wall left his eyes perfectly open.
What Du Xiong said was true. The map is also correct. The resource mines are real.
Zhang Yu blinked twice and then tried to pick up some pink crystals that had various shapes.
He recalled Du Xiong saying that this crystal must be processed before it can be utilized. That might be true, considering the power energy within it was not so great and seemed chaotic.
"Maybe I'll bring some as an example." Zhang Yu kept the three crystals. His hand moved to touch the surface of the cave wall like he was doing research.
A minute later, he opened his eyes. Thinking of every part of the cave that stored the resource crystal made him happy. It was certain that this mine would later become an important pillar of the Zhang Clan.
After a long time inside the mine cave, Zhang Yu decided to return because he no longer had any business there. The little monkey still faithfully sat on his shoulders. Seeming to enjoy his position like that was a throne made especially for him.
"Little ape, I think I should give you a name." Zhang Yu stroked his chin trying to find a good name. He thought of the name 'Hou' which means ape. But after some thought the name 'Sun' was better for her.
"Yes, your name is Sun!"
Zhang Yu picked up the little ape that officially got a new name, Sun. Put it over his head while holding his hand.
As they were already at the clan residence, a sixth elder walked over with his daughter, Zhou Ying, waving from a distance.
"Zhang Yu!"
Zhang Yu was not an unethical person. Because the sixth elder called him closer to him. "Does the Sixth Elder need anything?"
Haha...
"No no, I just want to say if the patriarch is looking for you."
When he heard the name of the patriarch, Zhang Yu's forehead immediately wrinkled.
Last night the patriarch wanted to talk to him. But hearing the aunt's unconsciousness, she promised to come the next morning.
But it's almost noon. Patriarch certainly ....
"Thank you for telling me, I'm saying goodbye to Sixth Elder first." After saying Zhang Yu darted out quickly.
Zhang Zhou saw Zhang Yu's departure and immediately gradually sighed. "Let's go, Ying'er."
Zhang Ying also noticed Zhang Yu. Even when his back was no longer visible, he was still staring in the same direction.
The once useless man had now turned into a genius in his generation. There was undeniably a feeling of regret in his mind about the marriage contract. But unfortunately, the rice has become porridge.
