Chapter 214: Chapter 214. Digging For Coal

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Using a hoe to dig a coal mine was slow and laborious, but using a hammer was much faster. Su Qing did not refuse and brought Zhong Yong to the cave that Xiao Ying had discovered to dig for coal.

Zhong Yong followed behind Su Qing and kept stealing glances at Su Qing. Su Qing couldn’t take it anymore and stopped in his tracks. She asked with a cold face,

“What are you looking at?”

“If you can kill a tiger, you’re a tigress.”

Zhong Yong said foolishly. He actually wanted to praise Su Qing and say that she was more powerful than a tiger, but he did not know how to describe her, so he just called her a tigress because a tigress with cubs was more ferocious than a male tiger.

Su Qing stared at him for a long time without saying a word. This person was not smart, or she would think he was scolding her.

Zhong Yong thought about how Su Qing had smashed the tiger’s head with three punches. He subconsciously protected his head and begged Su Qing,

“My head isn’t as hard as a tiger’s.”

Su Qing shook her head. She didn’t want to waste time with Zhong Yong and quickly approached the cave.

Zhong Yong perked up when he saw that Su Qing didn’t beat him. He followed behind Su Qing and said,

“You can be my master!”

Su Qing ignored him with a dark expression. Seeing that Su Qing was ignoring him, Zhong Yong ran two steps in front of Su Qing and begged Su Qing as he walked backward,

“Big Brother can’t lecture me anymore. Just accept me!”

He was tripped by a tree root exposed on the ground and fell out. A black piece of coal was smashed on the back of his head. He did not have eyes on the back of his head.

“What the hell stabbed my head?”

Zhong Yong sat up and rubbed the back of his head as he picked up the black coal. In a fit of anger, he smashed the coal into pieces with a hammer.

“I’ll let you hit my head.”

He was still a child!

Su Qing shook her head. This was a two-meter-tall child.

They arrived at the cave where Xiao Ying found the coal. The cave was only about one meter high, and she had to bend down to enter! Su Qing walked over and stood outside the cave to take a look.

“Give me the hammer.”

Zhong Yong was too tall and couldn’t get in even if he bent over. Su Qing asked him for the hammer.

“You can’t carry it.”

Zhong Yong had already gotten up from the ground. When he heard Su Qing asking for the hammer, he shook his head.

“Give it to me.”

Su Qing ordered with a cold face. Zhong Yong was so scared that he quickly handed the hammer over, afraid that Su Qing would smash his head with three punches.

Each of these iron hammers weighed at least a hundred pounds. It was indeed cumbersome. Fortunately, Su Qing’s war god ability had been upgraded to level 37, so carrying it was not considered strenuous.

She stopped before entering the cave. She could not smash the coal so rashly. It would be dangerous if it collapsed.

“Pull up that tree.”

Su Qing looked around. Not far away was a straight poplar tree as thick as a woman’s waist. It was suitable to be used as a pillar to support the coal cave, so he let Zhong Yong show his ability.

Zhong Yong was pleased to be ordered to work by Su Qing. He happily agreed and ran over. He hugged the tree trunk with both hands and pulled the willow upside down.

Su Qing saw that Zhong Yong had pulled the tree out and sighed at Zhong Yong’s strength.

If the tree was too long and the cave was only a meter high, it would not be easy to saw it down.

“Cut it down?”

Zhong Yong might only have a child’s IQ but he understood why Su Qing was worried and asked her.

“Yes.”

Su Qing nodded, and Zhong Yong immediately volunteered to return and get the axe. While Zhong Yong returned to get the axe, Su Qing used the hoe to try and see if she could dig up the coal.

“Activate mining.”

Su Qing learned her lesson and activated her skill before she started working.

The system didn’t say anything and quietly activated the skill.

Was it a good thing or a bad thing to have a violent and intelligent host?

Su Qing didn’t care what the system thought. Since the mining skill was activated, she stood at the cave entrance and used the hoe to dig down the coal.

All the skills were the easiest to level up in the initial stage. Su Qing had just dug out a fist-sized piece of coal when a golden light flashed before her eyes. Mining had leveled up.

“Congratulations, Host. Mining has reached level one. Physique, Spirit, Combat Power, and War God Ability have all reached level 38.”

The system’s voice rang out along with the golden light. Xiao Qi’s sweet voice sounded,

“Master, you’re so awesome. You’ve leveled up again!”

Xiao Qi amused Su Qing. She only dug out a small piece of coal, which was already fantastic.

Was she invincible in Xiao Qi’s heart? No matter what you do, you’re always the best.

Brainless admiration, but she liked it.

Su Qing didn’t care about that. She continued to be a coal miner. She dug and dug, and the cinders flew everywhere. Her skill bar increased rapidly.

“I brought it here.”

Zhong Yong ran back with his long legs, panting heavily. He was holding a machete from Peach Blossom Cove. People in the mountains did not lack machetes. In winter, they had to go up the mountain to chop firewood.

Whether Su Qing agreed or not, Zhong Yong acknowledged her as his Master. When he saw her digging the stone wall with a hoe, Zhong Yong scratched his head and asked Su Qing in confusion,

“Master, what are you doing?”

“Digging for coal.”

Su Qing had just leveled up and was in a good mood so that she could answer Zhong Yong patiently.

“Why did you dig it?”

Zhong Yong continued to ask, but Su Qing did not want to waste any more time with him. She used the hoe to draw a mark on the tree trunk. She said to Zhong Yong,

“Cut from here.”

“Oh.”

Zhong Yong obediently used the machete to cut the tree trunk. Although he was strong, the machete was not an axe but was still very slow.

Su Qing didn’t rush him. After all, digging coal with a hoe was a skill, but it was a little slow.

Zhong Yong was an impatient person. After a few slashes, he couldn’t cut it open. He cried out in panic. His arm swung the machete and fell like raindrops, landing on the same opening. With a fierce operation, he cut off the piece of wood.

“Master, I chopped it off.”

Zhong Yong happily picked up the piece of wood and ran over to Su Qing for praise.

“Not bad.”

Su Qing looked at Zhong Yong’s cheerful face. He was as happy as a child. His eyes were clean, without any impurities or desire. He looked like a child looking forward to being praised by an adult. Su Qing praised him stiffly.

“Bring it in.”

Su Qing didn’t go too deep into the cave. The cave led downward, dark inside, making it inconvenient to work.

However, the deeper they went, the better the coal quality. The upper layer still had more coal. Su Qing bent down and walked down. She asked Xiao Qi to bring her a torch and walked to the middle of the cave with the torch.

Zhong Yong, on the other hand, was pitiful. He was too tall. He could not even crawl on the ground and crawled forward.

He didn’t care if his clothes were clean or not. He was afraid that Su Qing would leave him behind. When he saw Su Qing take out a kerosene lamp, he shouted, “Master, where did you find the light? ”

“On the wall.”

Su Qing said casually. She used the kerosene lamp to shine on the cave wall. Under the light, she saw the wall filled with high-quality raw coal, higher than the coal she picked up outside.

If the coal picked up outside could be rated as Grade 3, this would be Grade 1 coal.

“Put the trunk in this position.”

Su Qing found a spot in the middle for Zhong Yong to erect the wood. Only then did he realize that Zhong Yong was crawling on the ground. His clothes were already as black as coal..
