i have a small map

Chapter 20 Gold
"no!"

Already dug three meters, apart from ordinary gravel and mud, not to mention colorful mysterious crystals, not even a glass ball!

"strangeness……"

Wang Ming frowned slightly. According to the small map, it should be at this location, two meters underground.He has dug an extra meter now, but he still hasn't found it.

"Is there something wrong with the system?"

This system is derived from the game template, and it is incomplete.But since Wang Ming came to this world, there has never been a mistake.According to common sense, there should be no mistakes.

"what is this……"

When he was wondering, Wang Ming suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a strange little hole under the pit!The thickness of a fist, but I don't know how deep it is.

"I want to see it!"

Wang Ming instinctively felt that the disappearing Five Colors Profound Crystal should have something to do with this small hole!Picking up the black iron dagger, he dug down the small hole.

What Wang Ming didn't expect was that although the hole was not big, it was very deep!He dug down for more than two meters, and with the sound of clang, the tip of the sword seemed to touch something, and there was a soft sound of metal impact.

"Could it be Five Colors Profound Crystal?"

Wang Ming's eyes widened, this is a black iron sword, like cutting ordinary steel and tofu.Apart from the Five Colors Profound Crystal, Wang Ming couldn't think of anything else.

"This is……"

Excited for a while, Wang Ming hurriedly continued digging, but when he dug out the thing and wiped off the dirt on it, Wang Ming was completely dumbfounded.

"A mouse?"

It's not a mysterious crystal, or even an item, but a living mouse!

It looks similar to a golden mouse, but much smaller, even smaller than a normal house mouse.And it's not earthy yellow, but a golden color with a metallic texture all over it!
"What is this?"

Isn't it Five Colors Profound Crystal? Why did it take a long time to dig out a mouse?Looking at the little guy who was still sleeping soundly in his hand, Wang Ming couldn't help feeling a little messy.

[Finding monster cubs, as spoils for destroying monster lairs, can be contracted! 】

At this moment, a system prompt suddenly sounded.

"what?"

[Whether to contract this monster cub. 】

"Wait, what do you mean?"

[Once the contract is established, this monster will completely obey the host. 】

"Pet baby?"

Wang Ming blinked his eyes, as if he understood a little bit.

"A mouse?"

The pets in the game all assist the player in fighting, and even have the fighting power not to lose to the player.But this little mouse doesn't look like it's very capable of beating.

Wang Ming couldn't help hesitating, do you want a contract?

"Establish a contract!"

After thinking for a while, Wang Ming gave an order.

According to the system prompt, this is not an ordinary mouse, but a monster.And just now when the black iron short sword touched it, it didn't even hurt a single hair, which meant that the mouse might not be as weak as he thought.

The most important thing is, why do you think so much? Let’s talk about the contract first. If there is a better choice in the future, it’s a big deal and then change it.

[The contract is completed! 】

Just as Wang Ming finished giving the command, the system prompt sounded again.

"This is the end?"

Wang Ming blinked, as if nothing happened.

"and many more……"

When he was wondering, Wang Ming suddenly had a strange feeling, as if a ray of soul had been separated and lodged in this mouse's sea of ​​consciousness.He has complete control over every move of this mouse, even all perceptions and thoughts!
Squeak!

At the same time, the little mouse, which had been sleeping all this time, suddenly opened its eyes, looked at Wang Ming and yelled twice, in an extremely intimate voice.

"interesting."

Perhaps because of the contract, Wang Ming suddenly had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with this little mouse. It felt like... his own son?

"There has to be a name. From now on, you'll be called...just 'Gold'."

Wang Ming smiled and said that he originally wanted to name him Zhizhi, but it seemed a bit feminine.Since this mouse is all golden and looks like a piece of gold from a distance, let's call it gold.

Squeak!

The little guy seemed very satisfied with the name, and called twice excitedly.Then he used Wang Ming's palms and arms as a playground and crawled around excitedly.

Squeak!

When he climbed to the wrist, he suddenly saw the black iron dagger in Wang Ming's hand, his small soybean-like eyes were shining brightly, he screamed twice in excitement, and quickly crawled over.

"Be careful with sharp edges..."

Wang Ming was startled, fearing that the blade would hurt it, he quickly reminded it.But thinking about it again, it seems that this little guy has a very hard skin.

Sure enough, it grabbed the blade with its claws, but nothing happened.It seems that he rubbed his belly and scratched it with the blade of the black iron dagger.

Click!

But at the next moment, what Wang Ming never expected was that with a crisp sound, the extremely hard black iron dagger was directly bitten off by the little guy.Listening to its chewing sound is like eating peanuts.

The little guy was a little impatient, swallowed it before chewing it, then held the black iron dagger, and opened his mouth impatiently.

"Shut up!"

Wang Ming's eyes widened, and he shouted hastily.

As a pet, with the same mind as its owner, the little guy was stunned and stopped his next move.Then, like a child who made a mistake, he lowered his head and crawled back into Wang Ming's arm, hiding in his sleeve.

"...Four pests! Four pests! You are such a small pest!"

Bringing the dagger close to his eyes, he saw a gap the size of a peanut on the blade, and Wang Ming pouted in distress.But for Jin Zi, he couldn't bear to blame him, so he could only sigh and stamp his feet.

Fortunately, the black iron is extremely hard, even if there is a gap, it will not be easily broken.And just this little gap doesn't affect the sharpness.

"never mind."

Who would be his own son? Wang Ming sighed and could only admit it.

The essence blood and rat teeth have been collected, and the harvest is quite fruitful.Although the Five Colors Profound Crystal was not found, it was not a loss if it was replaced with a baby.Wang Ming estimated that the so-called five-colored mysterious crystal was probably eaten by gold as a snack.

This destroyed monster lair is of no value. Looking at the time, there are still two or three hours before dawn.Wang Ming took one last look, turned and left, and headed straight for Horn City.

The wilderness is dangerous, especially at night.But driving stealth along the way, although the walking was not fast, it was still relatively stable.

Two hours later, when the city gate was about to open, Wang Ming just arrived.Mix in the crowd, go into the city with everyone, and go to the altar to hand in the task.

"Master! It's not good!"

Not long after everyone entered the city, Zhou Zhenbei, the head of the Zhou family, one of the two major families in Jiaocheng, had just gotten up when the butler ran in in panic.

"What's the matter, panic like this."

Zhou Zhenbei let out a soft drink without getting angry.

"What a system!"

"Yes! But..."

The housekeeper's face was full of anxiety, and he didn't know how to speak for a while, and stomped his feet angrily and said.

"Master! Master, he didn't come back!"

"You mean...Xian'er?"

"It's the third young master. The city gate opened today, and our people didn't see him enter the city."

"Where are the others, where are the others following Xian'er!"

"Neither came back, not a single one."

"Never came back..."

Zhou Zhenbei closed his eyes, a look of pain flashed across his face.After a while, he opened his eyes again, his gaze was cold.

"Go to the altar! Let's see who wins this time! Who else? The number of rat teeth far exceeds the others!"
