She lowered her head, fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her hands, and said softly and shyly, "When...when the time comes, you can do whatever you want. I...I will listen to you."
As soon as she said this, she felt her cheeks getting hot.
An Nuo was secretly delighted when he heard this, thinking that he had really made a profit this time.
You know, on weekdays, Kerla always seems quite reserved and conservative when it comes to dual cultivation, and has never tried some special games.
He didn't expect that she would agree so readily today. It was really beyond his expectations.
It seems that those wonderful pleasures that have never been experienced are about to become a reality. How can we not be full of expectations?
Having said that, the amount of gold in the Golden Country is astonishing. Even if a portion of it is taken out to maintain good relations with the Revolutionary Army, it is just a drop in the bucket for Annuo.
What's more, deep in his heart, he had a more important plan - he had always coveted a captain in the revolutionary army and hoped to recruit him as his own companion.
Therefore, he was naturally very generous when dealing with the revolutionary army.
Unfortunately, due to the powerful impact that the island endured when it flew into the sky and the violent shaking of the huge bean vine, the originally orderly city terrain underwent earth-shaking changes.
Not only that, many buildings also suffered varying degrees of damage, and even a large amount of gold scattered out of the treasury and spread messily on the ground.
The people of Sky Island had naturally been to the Golden Country before, but they were not interested in this glittering metal. In their eyes, land was much more valuable than gold.
So for hundreds of years, no one was interested in this gold.
This is the difference in values.
In Qinghai, gold is a treasure and can be exchanged for a lot of money.
On Sky Island, land is the treasure, while gold is like air.
Everyone dispersed to visit this magnificent city. Annuo had prepared a lot of storage bags in advance for Shandora. Anyway, all the gold was put into the storage bags.
Anno also casually walked into a building and started collecting gold.
Thinking of those gold diggers before he traveled through time, they worked very hard to pan for gold, but the gold they might find in a year or two was not as valuable as the gold he picked up here.
Sure enough, reality and comics have different impacts on people.
Previously, the treasure found from the Lord of the Sky was incomparable in scale and not on the same level.
Annuo carefully stretched out his hand and gently touched the golden wall that was emitting dazzling light.
As soon as the fingertips touched, a cool feeling instantly came over, as if it was a whisper from ancient times.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "This feels so cold!"
Staring at the gold brick in front of him, a bold idea came to his mind - I really want to move this brick away!
The group toured this mysterious and luxurious golden city for quite some time.
At first, they were all shocked and excited by the scene before them, unable to suppress their joy and amazement.
But as time went on, the excitement gradually subsided and everyone slowly calmed down.
Even the most excited Nami was just hugging a pillar tightly at this moment, grinning like a child, while not forgetting to collect the gold scattered around bit by bit.
As for those ancient buildings that were not made of gold, people did not destroy them wantonly.
After all, these buildings that have gone through the vicissitudes of time are also an indispensable part of this city, carrying a long history and culture.
At this time, Laqi was standing alone in front of a stone tablet, studying it intently.
In this world of golden light, such an ordinary stone tablet is particularly eye-catching. An Nuo noticed Laqi's actions, walked forward curiously, and asked softly: "Is there anything special about this stone tablet?"
Laqi raised her head, glanced at An Nuo, then returned her gaze to the stone tablet, nodded slowly, and replied: "Yes, this is the memorial tablet of our Shandia clan."
It was obvious that she was very familiar with the words engraved on it.
She pointed at a string of words and explained carefully: "It says that we, the Shandia people, are the ones who follow the voice of the Great Bell Tower to push history forward. This is the sacred mission we shoulder."
This is the mission that the Shandia family has passed down from generation to generation, and Laqi is obviously deeply touched by this.
As she gazed at the mysterious and ancient words on the stone tablet, an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
She pointed to the inscription on it and said:
"The Shandia clan shoulders the important mission of following the Great Bell Tower and promoting the progress of history."
But what exactly is the Great Bell Tower?
What about the history it promoted?
These questions lingered in Laqi's mind like a fog, making her fall into deep thought involuntarily.
At this moment, An Nuo raised his head and cast his eyes towards the huge bean vine towering into the sky in the center of the ruins.
Deep in his memory, the bell tower carrying the golden bell was pushed up to the sky by this huge structure.
Now, they have successfully found the legendary Golden Land. As for collecting gold, it is never too late to start.
Thinking of this, An Nuo turned to Malachi and said, "In that case, why don't we go and find out what's going on?"
Hearing this, Malachi was surprised at first, but soon a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.
After all, being able to explore the mysteries left by their ancestors is undoubtedly extremely attractive to her as a member of the Shandia tribe.
Seeing that Malachi did not directly refuse, Annuo smiled and added: "We have plenty of time anyway. Besides, it is my responsibility as the master to satisfy the maid's wishes!" After saying that, he looked at Malachi with encouraging eyes.
Chapter 196 Ringing the Golden Bell
After a moment's hesitation, Malachi nodded heavily in agreement.
So, Annuo decided to embark on a long-awaited adventure - climbing this huge bean vine that reaches into the sky.
Laqi looked up, but found that her sight was completely blocked by the thick clouds, and she could not see where the top of the bean vine was.
However, facing An Nuo's inquiring gaze, she took a deep breath, then nodded firmly again, as if to tell the other party that she was ready to face the challenge.
"Hey, what interesting game are you guys planning to play? Count me in, I want to join in too!"
From afar, Kerla saw Annuo and the others gathered together, as if they were planning to start some fun activity. Her big, lively eyes instantly flashed with excitement, and then she trotted over with brisk steps.
At this time, An Nuo smiled and waved to the girls. He looked just like a professional tourist guide, except that he was holding a small flag fluttering in the wind.
Nami, who was busy collecting gold not far away, accidentally saw this scene and couldn't help but mutter in her heart:
What is this guy up to? Is he trying to do something embarrassing that will make people blush and their heartbeats speed up?
After all, the "exercise" that Annuo talks about on a daily basis is very different from the ordinary exercise that ordinary people understand.
At this time, Hinaya came over with a smile on her face and asked curiously, "Is it just rock climbing? I was expecting something more exciting."
Faced with such reactions from the crowd, Annuo felt a little amused.
Look at their half-smiley expressions, it seems like they are making hidden jokes, but as close companions, Annuo has long been accustomed to this level of little teasing.
He cleared his throat and explained solemnly, "This is really just an ordinary rock climbing. Let's go explore together and try to ring the mysterious golden bell that is said to be able to resound throughout the entire Sky Island once it is hit!"
From the outside, climbing the giant vines seems to be slightly less difficult than traditional rock climbing.
The reason is simple. It is because the vine has a unique double helix structure. From a distance, it looks like two slightly steep winding mountain roads.
In this way, compared with the common vertical rock wall, this vine gives people the illusion of being able to slowly climb along the slope, as if it has little to do with real climbing.
However, despite this appearance, the greatest difficulty lies simply in the daunting height.
This place is already 10,000 meters in the air, and the huge vine in front of us is conservatively estimated to be at least a thousand meters high!
Faced with such a height, even the brave and fearless Nami couldn't help but back off at this moment: "It's such a high place, I think it's better to forget it..."
She looked up, trying to estimate how high the bean vine was.
But as his head continued to rise, he finally fell to the ground with his head tilted back.
For Nami, instead of engaging in this so-called climbing exercise, it would be much more pleasant and satisfying for her to continue bending down and picking up the golden gold on the ground.
What's more, after practicing dual cultivation with Annuo last night, Nami always felt that the exercise Annuo mentioned seemed to hide some other intentions - maybe this guy wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of climbing to do something bad to them!
In that case, she naturally chose to give up climbing and continue to focus on collecting the glittering gold.
Mrs. Makino, who smiled gently, had the same idea as Nami.
For her, activities like mountain climbing are too tiring and hard. After all, she has never been a person who is keen on physical exercise.
Makino is a person who always thinks about exercising well, but once she really starts exercising, her delicate body immediately starts complaining about being too tired!
So when Nami suggested to her that they should collect gold below and then use the flying talisman to fly directly above when they had collected enough, Makino immediately agreed with both hands.
As for the rest, they chose the most primitive way - climbing up step by step along the huge vines.
After they struggled upward for about a few hundred meters, they actually passed through a mysterious layer of clouds composed of island clouds.
However, what was frustrating was that despite having climbed so long and so high, the top of the bean vine was still just out of reach, as if mocking their efforts from above.
It can even be said that we haven't even reached the middle of the entire journey yet.
"It seems that this is just a platform midway." Annuo said, looking into the distance.
However, this platform is somewhat special, as there are also some golden buildings scattered on it.
Judging from the appearance, it must have been rolled up by the bean vines all the way up, but unfortunately it failed to successfully stay at the top in the end.
"Oh, if Nami knew there was so much gold along the way, she might regret not coming with us."
Nojigo gently stroked the golden yellow, a smile that could not be suppressed appeared on his face.
After all, for Nami, who loves money like her life, missing out on such an opportunity to make a fortune would be a sin!
Fortunately, everyone still had plenty of energy, so the climb did not make anyone feel too exhausted.
On the contrary, they climbed up slowly and leisurely, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, just like they did when climbing a mountain on ordinary days.
When the last person successfully reached the top of the bean vine, night had quietly fallen, with only a few dim afterglow remaining in the sky.
However, despite the fact that it was getting late, everyone's face was filled with happy and satisfied smiles.
After all, they witnessed countless enchanting sights along the way.
Nami and Madam Makino had arrived here early with the help of flying talismans, and were quietly waiting for the arrival of others.
After everyone finally gathered together, they all turned their eyes to the distance.
I saw the big clock tower carrying a long history, shining with dazzling golden light under the afterglow of the setting sun, like a shining pearl standing in the long river of time.
Not only that, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the moss-covered ancient walls, adding a heavy historical flavor to the bell tower.
