Ji Xiaoying got up from the ground, holding a black stone in her hand. This stone was even blacker than the one she picked up last time, so black that it shone under the sun. She rubbed her aching butt as she faced the black stone.
Su Qing was pleasantly surprised when she saw the stone in Ji Xiaoying’s hand. Was it coal?
Since they could pick up coal, this mountain must have a coal mine. They would not suffer from the cold with coal when they went to Jingshi Dao. They could even sell it for money. This was an inexhaustible treasure.
Su Qing searched her memory. The Great Xia Kingdom did not know about coal. In modern times, private coal mines were already rich enough to rival a country! The ordinary people used wood for heating, and the palace used charcoal for heating.
As long as they didn’t spread the news of their coal mining, they wouldn’t be targeted by the imperial court. The coal they collected could be sold to Tartan at a high price. Thousands of mountains and rivers separated them from the imperial court, so no one would find out that they were secretly making a fortune.
Su Qing looked at Xiaoying, still rubbing her butt with her teeth bared. She frowned and pouted as she stared at the piece of coal in her hand. Su Qing smiled and praised her,
“Xiaoying, you’re a lucky star. Do you know what this is? With this, we won’t be cold anymore.”
This was the first time Ji Xiaoying had seen Su Qing so happy. She looked at the black stone in Su Qing’s hand in confusion and asked,
“Isn’t this a black stone?”
“This is no ordinary stone. We’ll be relying on it to keep us warm tonight.”
Su Qing didn’t tell her that it was coal. She wouldn’t understand even if she told her. She would know how good it was when she lit a fire at night.

Ji Xiaoying looked curiously at the black and ugly stone. Since she was young, she had never heard of a stone that could provide warmth.
“Yes, it can still burn for a long time. I’ll look around for more.”
Su Qing was happy in her heart and had a smile on her face. That smile that was like a spring breeze added a touch of joy to this lonely mountain.
“Sister, you look so beautiful when you smile!”
Ji Xiaoying looked at Su Qing’s fair face and felt that her sister’s smile could make all the flowers lose color. If she wore beautiful female clothing with a head full of pearls and bright flowers, even the consorts in the palace would not be as beautiful as her. This was still male clothing.
“Hurry up and go. Aren’t you afraid of peeing in your pants?”
Su Qing teased Xiaoying.
One was Ji Xiaoying, and the other was Little Fatty Qi. Su Qing enjoyed their flattery very much. She didn’t care about being praised for being beautiful. Su Qing would give them a cold face if someone else said the same thing.
Ji Xiaoying hid in the cave to go to the toilet. When she peed, the soil on the ground was split open, revealing the black stones.
“Sister, the ground is full of these stones.”
Ji Xiaoying ran out of the toilet to tell Su Qing excitedly. The little girl’s eyes shone, and her face was excitedly red.
“You might have found the coal cave.”
Su Qing thought of her mining skill. She was going to light up this skill today. Xiaoying was a lucky star. She had found the eye of the coal mine with just a piss.
“Master, there’s a huge coal mine at the foot of the mountain!”
Xiao Qi said excitedly to Su Qing in the system. The little guy was happy for her master. As the owner of the coal mine, she would be able to make a fortune.
Just as she had expected, Su Qing was even happier. She wanted to tell Ji Shuisheng about this joy as soon as possible so that he could be happy too.
She had only taken two steps when she heard the sound of branches breaking. Accompanied by a fishy wind, a huge creature descended from the sky.
Su Qing immediately grabbed Xiaoying and jumped onto the huge rock. Xiaoying was stunned. This rock was as high as a two-story building. How did Sister Su Qing jump up?
When Ji Xiaoying saw the massive creature under the rock, she was frightened and shouted in a trembling voice,
“Tiger, sister, this is a tiger.”
The Manchurian Tiger was one of the most ferocious beasts. Its eyes were fierce, its limbs were strong, and its sharp claws could cut open a person’s intestines. Its golden fur was mixed with black stripes. There was a king pattern on its forehead.
The tiger saw that it had missed its target. It was so angry that it knocked down a withered tree beside it with its claws and let out a loud tiger roar.
Its round eyes, flashing with a fierce light, stared at Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying, who had flown onto the huge rock. Its two front paws dug into the ground, and it let out a threatening whimper.
“Big sister.”
Ji Xiaoying was so scared that her voice was trembling. Although she had grown up in the mountains, this was the first time she had seen a tiger so close up. Moreover, this ferocious tiger had treated her as prey.
“Stay up there, and don’t move.”
Su Qing was very calm. Her hunting skill would level up if she killed a tiger. It might even level up by two levels.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTiger skin was a good thing. It could be sold for a high price. Even if not sold, it could be used as a mattress to keep warm. Tiger meat could be eaten, tiger teeth could be made into necklaces for children, and tiger bones were precious medicinal herbs.
The tiger guarding under the rock felt a chill run down its spine. Why was this prey looking at it with such murderous eyes?
The tiger roared threateningly at Su Qing and began to attack in order not to put down its prestige. It was very smart. It could not jump over the three-meter-high stone at once, so it ran to the slope beside it, wanting to attack Su Qing from the slope.
“Stay here, and don’t move.”
Su Qing instructed Ji Xiaoying and got Xiao Qi to pass her a steel knife. She had stored these knives in the system during the military search last time. There were dozens of them in total!
Xiao Qi had nothing to do with the system, so she polished these knives until they were shiny and sharp.
Ji Xiaoying was so scared by the tiger that her legs went weak. Although she was trembling in fear when she saw Sister Su Qing go to fight the tiger, she did not run alone for her life.
She took out a crossbow with trembling hands and aimed at the tiger running up the slope. Strangely, she was not afraid after picking up the crossbow. She calmly aimed at the tiger’s eyes and shot the arrow.
Even though the arrow was fast, the tiger ran even faster. It jumped to avoid the arrow and pounced toward Su Qing.
Ji Xiaoying locked another arrow, but she dared not shoot anymore. Sister Su Qing was blocking the tiger, and Xiaoying feared shooting her.
“Help! There’s a tiger!”
Ji Xiaoying could no longer shoot the crossbow, so she shouted for help, hoping that Big Brother and Brother Zhong Yong would hear her and come to save Sister Su Qing.
Su Qing fought the tiger with her steel knife. She had the level 35 war god ability and could quickly deal with the tiger. She jumped and dodged the tiger’s claws and fangs, and the steel knife in her hand was aimed at the tiger’s eyes.
The tiger skin could not be damaged, or it would not be sold for a reasonable price. The tiger’s eyes were the most vulnerable part. It would not damage the tiger’s skin if it were blinded.
This tiger was the king of beasts and knew how to dodge in the air. When it saw the steel knife coming, it flew over Su Qing’s head. Su Qing stabbed it in the stomach, wanting to cut it open.
However, the tiger was swift. After flying over Su Qing’s head, it did not stop and went straight for Xiaoying, standing on the rock.
The tiger had chosen Xiaoying, who had weak combat strength. This prey was more accessible to catch than the ferocious prey. Anyway, it was all meat..
