Chapter 236: Chapter 236: Fish Mouth Prediction of a Box of Gold

"Ugh..."

Damn...

I drove too fiercely on that off-road mountain path just now...

Ye Chen quickly drank some water to suppress the urge to vomit.

Then, he gracefully jumped out of the car.

Liao Xuexue, who was standing by, couldn’t help but give Ye Chen a disdainful look as his face appeared pallid.

"What were you even thinking, driving so wildly that you ended up getting car sick yourself?"

Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively and argued, "You don’t get it, driving needs passion!"

Liao Xuexue glared at Ye Chen and then deliberately turned her head away.

Really...

It was clearly his fault, yet he acted as if he was perfectly justified.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen was surveying the Golden Peak Mountain Pond.

The gate of the Golden Peak Mountain Pond was neither too big nor too small, roughly seven to eight meters wide, made of iron.

And the surrounding area was quite barren, with just this odd fish pond and the rest being desolate mountains and wilderness.

Golden Peak Mountain is a natural reserve of Jiang City, thus the ecological environment here is relatively good.

Looking at the surrounding majestic mountains and harsh terrain, Ye Chen couldn’t help but click his tongue and muttered.

"It’s really strange, why is the fish pond located in such a remote place?"

Although it seemed odd, Ye Chen didn’t take it too seriously.

Right now, the old folks from the Jiang City River squad hadn’t arrived yet, so Ye Chen suddenly had a whimsical thought.

He immediately activated his [Fish Mouth Prediction] skill.

[Fish Mouth Prediction: Can detect the most valuable item or creature within a 20 kilometers radius in the water, cooldown time 24h.]

System, scan the Golden Peak Mountain Pond, see what’s the most valuable thing inside!

Ye Chen thought to himself.

After all, having come all this way, he felt he should gain something.

[Ding Ding...]

[Detected in the Golden Treasure Mountain Pond: a box containing ten kilograms of gold bars, valued at 1.3 million yuan.]

Ye Chen was startled by the mechanical voice that echoed in his mind.

Good heavens, gold bars in the fish pond?

Was it placed here by someone, or is it a relic from some tomb?

Thinking about it, Ye Chen just gave a bitter smile.

It seemed that no matter the situation, he wouldn’t be able to take these tens of kilograms of gold bars, worth millions, for himself.

Looks like he would need to trouble Captain Zhou to come over again today.

If he handed over this box of gold bars, would he get any rewards?

He probably would...

At the very least, the gold bars are worth 1.3 million.

Hehe, wonder what Captain Zhou is busy with?

At this moment, Liao Xuexue, standing beside Ye Chen, looked at him spacing out and occasionally showing a silly grin on his face.

Liao Xuexue shivered.

What’s wrong with Mr. Ye? Why is he grinning foolishly like he’s possessed, standing there?

Could it be that there’s something unclean in this desolate wilderness?

Ye Chen also noticed that Liao Xuexue was watching him warily, so he gave a bitter smile and said, "What’s with that look?"

"Call your grandpa and ask where they are?"

Liao Xuexue pouted and then took out her phone, ready to call her grandpa.

But before the phone call was made,

right down the slope at Golden Peak Mountain Pond, a clamor of old men was heard.

"Damn it! So heartless, this slope is really steep!"

"Old Liao, stop panicking. Didn’t you always say you’ve ridden dirt bikes? Just treat this as off-roading!"

"Damn it! Is that the same thing? I’m riding a little electric scooter now!"

"Didn’t you always say that despite being old, you can still fight? Charge up!"

"Old Liao, a man should never admit defeat!"

...

Among the teasing voices of the old men, Ye Chen soon saw Old Liao managing to drive his electric scooter up the big slope.

After Old Liao climbed the slope, he also noticed Ye Chen and Liao Xuexue, who had been waiting there for a long time.

But he didn’t greet them right away. Instead, he turned his head in extreme pride, showing off to the old men down the slope: "How about that? I told you Old Liao is mighty. This slope is at least 45 degrees, and I charged up in one go, I..."

Old Liao hadn’t finished speaking,

and the old men downhill didn’t wait to mock him, as they saw Old Liao’s feet slip, and the entire electric scooter began to slide down the slope.

Ye Chen and Liao Xuexue, standing at the entrance of the pond, were shocked.

Good grief, this slope is at least twenty meters.

If he falls down, it’d be either death or disability!

This Old Liao, is really quite reckless.

Even if you want to show off to the old men downhill, you should wait till the scooter is fully up the slope before showing off!

Liao Xuexue saw her grandfather about to tumble down the slope like a rolling stone, and she immediately shut her eyes and screamed.

Meanwhile, the old men standing downhill were also startled.

It’s not that they were worried about Old Liao.

If Old Liao, along with his scooter, comes rolling down, wouldn’t they be smashed into a pulp?

"Oh damn!" Following Old Liao’s outcry, Ye Chen, in a swift motion like an arrow, stepped forward.

Right at the critical moment, he directly grabbed hold of Old Liao’s scooter’s rear.

His physique had been enhanced by the system.

Whether it’s running speed, reflexes, or strength, he far surpasses ordinary people.

Ye Chen firmly grasped Old Liao’s electric scooter’s rear and pulled it up the slope.

Old Liao, seeing that it was Ye Chen who saved him, couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Hey, kid, you’re really reliable!"

The others, seeing this, all breathed a sigh of relief.

And Ye Chen could only helplessly roll his eyes at Old Liao.

"I tell you, you really have a big appetite for failure. You didn’t wait for the car to stabilize on the slope before you started mocking others..."

"Tsk tsk, speaking of having a big appetite for failure, isn’t Teacher Ye, who doesn’t catch any fish, the real deal?" Old Liao retorted with a smirk.

Ye Chen: "???"

Good grief, I kindly saved you, and you’re still mocking me?

"But you’re indeed solid, kid, hehe." Feeling Ye Chen’s dubious glare, Old Liao jumped down from his little electric scooter, patted Ye Chen’s shoulder, and snickered cheekily.

"Speaking of which, this is the second time you’ve saved me, rest assured, Old Liao remembers all in his heart!"

Old Liao, looking shamelessly thick-faced, stood in place giving Ye Chen a thumbs up.

Ye Chen helplessly shook his head.

This Old Liao, really has a big heart.

Indeed, within three days, it is the second time he has saved him.

As for the first time...

It must have been the day before yesterday on the banks of the Yangliu River at Jiang City University.

If it weren’t for him coming down like a god to handle that Caiman directly.
