The clear water was bitingly cold. Xu Feng's physical fitness was lower than that of an average adult man. As soon as he entered the water, his hands and feet felt numb and his body gradually became stiff.
"It was a miscalculation. I didn't expect my physical condition to be so bad. I would be in danger of drowning even if I dived..." Xu Feng's heart sank, but he did not panic. Instead, he curled up his limbs and hugged each other tightly.
The body sank toward the bottom of the pond like a stone.
Fortunately, this pool was not deep, at most it was only three or four meters deeper than the small river in front of it. Xu Feng groped and sank to the bottom of the pool, and immediately opened his eyes and looked around.
Soon, he discovered a golden light shining in a corner. With his limbs paddling, Xu Feng swam in the direction of the golden light.
When they arrived at the place, they saw a pile of small cast gold ingots in this corner. Each one weighed one or two. After Xu Feng grabbed two, he kicked his legs into the sand at the bottom of the pool and rushed towards the water.
Go up.
Cough cough cough~
Xu Feng climbed up from the pool in embarrassment. As soon as he landed on the shore, his limbs lay flat, his chest kept rising and falling, and he breathed heavily. The sun was shining brightly. Xu Feng lay under the scorching sun for a long time before he regained his strength and looked around him.
The two gold ingots that were thrown aside when they landed ashore shone with golden light in the sun, and Xu Feng couldn't help but laugh.
One end of this pool of water is connected to a small river, and the other end is an underground river deep in the Daqing Mountains. The entire river water actually comes up from the underground river.
Next to the underground river, there is a small space. Wei Hong has always regarded it as his own small treasury. The one or two golds paid by all students after completing the main tasks will be cast into one or two gold coins by Wei Hong.
The small gold coins are all hidden in the mountains, which is actually where Wei Hong stored his personal belongings.
In fact, as long as the secret realm apostle who has mastered one or two secret realms will have the same preference as Wei Hong, he will develop one or two places to store miscellaneous items in the secret realms he controls.
Among the hundreds of secret realms that Xu Feng originally controlled, there were at least a dozen secret realms with similar storage spaces that housed the treasures that Xu Feng had obtained.
Therefore, for the secret realm apostles, digging into the secret realm of the fallen secret realm apostles is also a very attractive thing. Not to mention inheriting the mantle, even acquiring some of the fallen apostles' usual collections can make a small fortune.
Wei Hong gets a lot of gold every year from the secret realm of Qingfeng Town, and he hides all the gold next to the underground river in the mountains.
As time goes by, gold will roll down into the river and be washed into the pond. In the future, there will be more and more gold, and it will even be washed into the river.
It was because a student was fishing in the river to get the initial profession of "fisherman" and accidentally picked up a gold nugget. He was delighted and passed the news to his classmates. Most of the students thought that there was a fisherman in Daqing Mountain.
There is a gold mine, and all this gold is washed out of the gold mine.
But one of the students saw the traces of casting on these gold ingots. Like Xu Feng, he followed the river up to the source, came to this pool, went down to fish for it, and made a fortune.
After these students left the secret realm, the news spread in the school, and more and more students began to take shortcuts and ran to this pool to look for the gold ingot.
When principal Wei Hong learned about this, he didn't care. After all, compared with his small treasury, those gold coins that were occasionally scattered into the underground river and washed into the pool were nothing. Now that this kind of thing has happened
, it is better to treat this pool as a place of adventure. After all, not every time you enter, gold ingots will wash out from the underground river. Getting gold from the pool still depends on luck.
Later, a brave student heard about this incident and came up with the idea of Principal Wei Hong's small treasury. He secretly bought a set of single-person diving equipment. After entering the secret realm, he wanted to dive into the underground river through the pool.
, entered Principal Wei Hong’s small vault, and actually let him touch it.
But I didn't expect that Principal Wei Hong's small vault was guarded by a formation. Once he got close, the formation would trigger a counterattack. This student was directly hit by the formation and seriously injured. If Principal Wei Hong hadn't happened to be in the school at that time and sensed the protective formation.
The law was triggered, and he entered the secret realm to save the student. This student may become the first person to die in the school's secret realm, and his name will be recorded in the school's history.
Since then, Principal Wei Hong has changed the location of his small treasury, and there have never been any gold coins in the pools and rivers. However, this incident has spread in Songtao No. 1 Middle School and is regarded as an incident.
Campus legends are talked about.
After lying on the river beach for a long time, Xu Feng finally recovered slowly. Looking at the two gold ingots weighing one or two in his hand, Xu Feng rubbed his still numb wrists, stood up, and jumped in again.
In the pond.
It was not until the sun turned west that Xu Feng finally stopped salvaging the gold coins. It was not that all the gold coins at the bottom of the pond had been salvaged, nor was it because Xu Feng's plan required a lot of money, but because the feeling of getting something for nothing was too high.
It made Xu Feng feel like he couldn't stop.
"That's enough, that's enough, I can't fish any more..." Xu Feng took a breath and looked at the eight or nine gold nuggets on the shore, with a wry smile on his face.
"I don't have the power to bind a chicken now, and I don't have any magical storage items on my body. Entering the town with so many gold ingots is like a child walking in the busy city holding treasures. It is really too dangerous...
"Xu Feng thought to himself.
Looking at the gold coins all over the ground, Xu Feng gritted his teeth and showed a hesitant look on his face. After a moment, he seemed to have figured out something, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"After rebirth, my willpower seems to have become like that of an ordinary person. Just a few gold picks made me hesitate..."
Xu Feng bent down and took only three gold coins and put them into his arms, then raised his foot and kicked all the remaining gold coins into the water.
"If you want to be an excellent secret apostle, you must follow a principle. Everything must serve a purpose. If the treasure discovered becomes a negative factor affecting the achievement of the purpose, you must abandon the treasure without hesitation! Even if it is
Sacred weapons and artifacts must follow this principle, not to mention gold knives that will become worthless after a few pieces!" Xu Feng said to himself.
Looking at the golden ingot slowly sinking to the bottom of the pond, Xu Feng turned around and left without hesitation, heading towards the direction of Qingfeng Town.
After Xu Feng left, another quarter of an hour later, a thin figure emerged from the forest. This man was only 1.56 meters tall. He was wearing a black tights and a patched gown.
, with two mustaches, came to the edge of the pool, looked at the direction Xu Feng left, and couldn't help laughing:
"Jie Jie, what a shame! It's such a waste to just throw away the gold you got! Let your uncle Qingfengzi spend these little cuties for you!"
