Chapter 353: Mining Iron Ore

Four months ago, Xu Xiang discovered a large amount of minerals and ores at the bottom of the deep ravine. Since the iron mines are controlled by the government in every county, she needs to go there to collect some ore to forge weapons and armor.

Although there are a lot of ores and minerals in her space, she does not intend to use the materials in the space if they can be collected. Moreover, she is not sure whether the ore from her world is the same as the ore in this world. So to be on the safe side, she chose to use ores from this world.

After flying for three hours, she landed in front of a giant stone boulder. Last time, it was A Lu Da who opened and closed the secret passage. Looking at the giant stone boulder, she pondered for a moment. With her strength, it is impossible to open the entrance.

After thinking for a few seconds, she took out a pair of gauntlets from her space. She wears the gauntlets, activates them and moves her finger a few times. After checking that there was no problem with the sensor, Xu Xiang turned on the power gauntlet and set the output power to level ten.

She waited for two seconds before walking to the giant stone boulder, put her hands on it, and began to push the giant stone boulder. With the help of the power gauntlet, her strength has increased tenfold.

After pushing for a while, Xu Xiang found that she couldn’t push the giant stone boulder at all. Wiping off her sweat with her sleeve, she raised the power gauntlet power output to level twenty, and then tried to push the giant stone boulder again. This time, the giant stone boulder finally moved slowly.

Two minutes later, she finally opened a gap big enough for her to pass through. Looking at the narrow gap, she wiped her sweat with her sleeve, and thought: ’Now I know how strong A Lu Da is. With such terrifying power, he is indeed not an ordinary person.’

After taking off the wind boots and power gauntlet, Xu Xiang took out the night vision glasses and the multifunction detector. She turned on the night vision glasses and the detector, then walked through the narrow gap.

When she walked into the secret passage, she carefully observed the surrounding environment. Two minutes later, after confirming that no one had stepped into this passage since she left last time, she walked forward carefully.

It took her four hours before she saw another large stone boulder blocking the exit. She put away the detector and wore the power gauntlet. After setting the power gauntlet output power to level twenty, she pushed away the stone boulder.

After a few minutes, she managed to open a narrow gap big enough for her to get through. She wiped her sweat and slipped out through the gap. As the blinding sunlight forced her to close her eyes, she waited for a while before slowly opening her eyes.

After her eyes adjusted to the brightness, she turned off the night vision glasses and put it back into her own space together with the power gauntlet. She looked around for a moment, then took out the wind boots and the multifunction detector.

Since the entrance of the Jia tribe’s secret passage is far away from the cave on the edge of the Lang tribe’s territory, she decided to fly there. If she walks, it will take her a whole day to reach the deep ravine.

As she flies towards the cave, she uses the detector to check the ground. To her surprise, beside the layer of the poisonous cinnabar, the detector showed that there were iron formations under the ground. Since there is an iron formation under the ground, there is no need for Xu Xiang to go to the deep ravine to mine the iron ore.

She flew for two hours before finding the densest iron formation. She then landed on the ground, put away the detector, and looked at the small hill in front of her. She smiled and took out a large excavator from her space.

After turning on the excavator, Xu Xiang entered a few strings of commands to start the excavator. Taking advantage of the time when the machine was digging the small hill, she entered her space to check on Mu Yucheng. When she appeared not far from the lake pavilion, she saw him still sitting there with his eyes closed.

She looked at him for a while, then teleported to the seedling area. Now that she has made an agreement with Gu Xieqin, she needs to prepare more seeds. Considering the Qin Kingdom’s soil and climate, she decided to give them several drought-tolerant crops first. Once the crops have rejuvenated the soil and the temperature has dropped, she can give them other types of crops.

Seeing that the crops had produced seeds, she began to harvest the seeds and process them. Since not all seeds can be stored for a long time without processing, she cannot ignore this step. Xu Xiang stayed inside her space for three days before going out again.

Calculating the time difference, she only stayed in the space for about two hours. When she returned outside, she found that the excavator had completed its task. She inspected the iron mine and found that the excavator had done a good job, so there was no need to reinforce the iron mine anymore.

She put the excavator back into her space, and walked into the iron mine with the detector and the night vision glasses. Ten minutes later, she stopped and took out a mining machine. Xu Xiang set up the mining machine, entered a few strings of commands, and started the mining machine.

She stood aside and watched the mining machine digging the iron. It wasn’t long before she saw a large iron ore drop into the container.
