Chapter 72 Return to reality
"This is it..."
In front of you is a big black mountain.
The main body of the mountain is composed of an unknown stone that is black and reflective, and the whole thing looks... like one body.
Of course.
It always feels weird to describe a mountain as if it were one.
But this is the fact. This is an indescribable feeling. Normal mountains are composed of rocks, earth, wood, and even gravel.
What about this Black Mountain?
There is nothing but black stones, no soil, sand and gravel, not even a single weed or tree. It looks very special, not like something formed naturally, but like a man-made construction.
And on the smooth cliffs of Montenegro.
It is inlaid with a bronze gate three feet long and two feet wide.
This is a portal completely suspended in mid-air, with no roads connecting the left and right, just like a honeycomb hanging on a branch.
Jiang Xuan is also well-informed.
But other than flying, he couldn't figure out how to get in and out of this portal.
This is not prepared for ordinary people at all. You can't put a hanging basket on the top of the mountain. People can sit in the hanging basket and go down the rope, and then open the door and climb in.
"Sure enough, it is the legacy of the Immortal Family, the land of the vast sea. Even the doors are opened so unusually."
Jiang Xuan clicked his tongue in surprise.
Because he can imagine that most immortals should be able to fly.
So there is no need to build the gates on land or connect them with roads and bridges like ordinary people.
Of course.
There may also be some newbies who can’t fly.
But such a new disciple of the Immortal family would not be sent to guard resource points, so doesn’t this bronze door that is difficult for ordinary people to reach represent the difference between immortals and mortals?
"This stone!"
Jiang Xuan stood at the foot of the mountain and punched the Black Mountain.
His punch was mixed with true energy. It may be an exaggeration to say that it can break mountains and crack rocks, but it is not difficult to break a piece of bluestone.
But such a punch on the black mountain did not leave even a trace. These black rocks are surprisingly hard.
"The wise have doubted."
"This mountain is the real center of the Immortal Family, but we are not allowed to enter even after we have tried our best. In the end, we can only return without success."
Luo Yuan.
It's the name of the monster leader.
Shen Zu helped come up with this name, and he also used Shen Zu’s surname Luo.
But it's a pity.
Luo Yuan couldn't explain what was in this black mountain, let alone the way to enter.
"Where's the door?"
"Can't the door be opened?"
Jiang Xuan just gave up the fantasy of blasting away the black mountain with his true energy after a brief try.
"It cannot be opened. The bronze door is even harder than the mountain. Even a wise man cannot shake it."
Luo Yuan commanded other monsters and used vines to help Jiang Xuan build a rope ladder that he could climb up.
But it's just like what it says.
Jiang Xuan went up and tried it. No matter whether he pushed or pulled, the bronze door would not move at all.
Then use the pickaxe taken from the ship to knock it.
The touch is very thick, and even if you hit it hard, the iron pick will not be able to leave even the slightest trace on the bronze door.
"A mountain comparable to steel, and a bronze gate stronger than steel!"
Jiang Xuan somewhat understood why Shenzu returned without success.
These two things were completely anti-human in ancient society.
Don’t talk about ordinary people.
Even if the heavenly masters are here, the tiger bites the hedgehog, and there is no way to bite it.
What a pity.
Jiang Xuan is no ordinary person.
What Shenzu couldn't do, he might not be able to do it either.
"This Black Mountain can be regarded as a permanent fortress made of steel."
"During World War II, the Germans liked to do this very much, and unlike German bunkers, this Black Mountain is not defended by soldiers, which means I can keep trying it without worrying about someone shooting me."
No matter how strong Montenegro is, it is still a dead thing.
Jiang Xuan circled the mountain a few times and quickly thought of a way: 'blast.'
...
The real world.
"Brother Xuan, what big deal do you want to do? Do you want 500 kilograms of explosives to blow up a bank vault?"
Seafood store.
Looking at the regular customers who came with bags and gold bars, An Ge said earnestly: "Why don't you change your mind and rob the treasury. It's very risky. I've had a batch of scheduled bombs come recently. We're all old acquaintances."
Now, I’ll sell it to you cheaper, how about you switch to a simple business, a gold robbing shop?”
Damn it, rob a gold store instead.
Jiang Xuan wanted explosives to blow open the bronze gate on Black Mountain.
He even robbed a gold store.
Does the gold shop have as much gold as him?
"Lao An, you didn't talk so much nonsense before. What's wrong this time? Are you afraid that I will fall in for you to come out?"
I vaguely remember.
When Jiang Xuan came to visit for the first time, Lao An was called Brother An, while he was called Xuanzi.
Now.
Today is different from the past.
Brother An became Lao An, and Xuanzi became Brother Xuan. The status of the two parties has long been reversed.
"It's not that I don't want to make money."
"I come from a small business. I used to sell mostly revolvers and AKs."
"After I met you, you either bought landmines or liquid explosives from me. My boss even asked me if I knew the Filipino armed rebellion."
Ange looked helpless: "Have you ever considered immigrating? What do you think of Somalia? I heard that you can even buy guided missiles there, and even Interpol doesn't care."
Jiang Xuan thought for a while.
Hong Kong Island is a society governed by the rule of law. We are indeed a little constrained here. I nodded and said: "I will consider it."
Finished.
Jiang Xuan opened his backpack and poured out the ten gold bars inside: "But next time, this time, within two days, help me get 500 kilograms of explosives, military grade."
"Think about it carefully." An Ge accepted the gold bar and reminded him: "If you have nothing to do in the future, don't come to the store. I have been closely watched by the police recently. If there is another big deal like this, I will still
Come find me at the Tea Friends Chess and Cards Room in the evening."
Jiang Xuan also said: "If you fall into trouble, don't mention me inside. This will be good for you."
"Don't worry, it's none of your business. I can only sit here for six or seven years at most. Counting yours, it's enough to sentence me to life." Brother An looked like I'm not stupid either: "I'm not that stupid."
p>
Jiang Xuan said nothing more.
But he also wondered whether he should really immigrate to Somalia.
Guide.
It sounds very good, but I don’t know how many gold bars it would cost to get it.
"Huh?"
Carrying a bag of crabs.
As soon as Jiang Xuan left An Ge's seafood shop, he realized that he was being watched.
Take a look back.
Sure enough, after two laps, a white car followed behind.
"Pull over..."
There were two people sitting in the car, and the co-pilot showed a police officer's ID card: "We are the police and we want to check your vehicle now. Please cooperate..."
Take a look at the crabs in the bag.
Of course Jiang Xuan cooperated, he is a good citizen.
"Driver's license, ID card."
Two plainclothes police officers asked while looking through the bag Jiang Xuan took out from the seafood restaurant: "What are you doing at An's Seafood Restaurant?"
"When buying seafood, my friend recommended this seafood shop. Their crabs are big and fat, and the price is only two-thirds of those in Kowloon."
Jiang Xuan handed over his ID card and driver's license: "Don't worry, I'm a law-abiding citizen. I don't have any bad records. I just like to eat crabs."
Look at him.
Look at the documents in your hand again.
A police officer whispered: "Brother, his driver's license and ID card are both new, and the dates are still on the same day. They can't be fake, right?"
"Head office, this is the ID number. Please help me check this ID number."
The two police officers were busy for a while.
But Jiang Xuan’s documents are all genuine, and nothing can be found out.
"Looking at your accent, you must be from mainland China."
"The documents are all new, and the address is still in Kowloon Walled City. It seems you came here not long ago."
Although no criminal record was found.
But the leading police officer did not relax his suspicion and whispered: "When we arrived, we had a car and crabs to eat. It's so luxurious. Are you a provincial and Hong Kong flag soldier, or a kidnapper?"
"We have been keeping an eye on the An brothers for a long time and suspect that they are engaged in the arms business. You drive two hours from Kowloon to an outlying island just to buy some cheap crabs?"
"Of course..."
Jiang Xuan didn't think there was anything wrong with this: "It's not illegal to eat crabs, right?"
"Of course it's not illegal."
The police officer returned Jiang Xuan's ID: "But if I were you, I wouldn't come here again to avoid misunderstandings. You are right."
"Obviously."
