Although the words were joking, the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional. Everyone became interested for a while, digging through the thinner snow and rummaging for the cobblestones below the valley. Chen Ziyun only thought it was funny, he could
Hitting a piece of jade with one kick was purely a matter of luck, and everyone could really think that this place was full of gems. He said: "It's better not to waste time on this kind of luck-based thing..." Before Scar could finish his words
Qiang then shouted: "Sister, come and see if this is jade?" He didn't know what he found, and his voice was trembling.
Chen Ziyun was surprised. Is there really jade here? But this is not surprising. On Kunlun Mountain, most jade collectors rummaged for stones on large and small river beaches, looking for stones that were carried by snow and water from the mountains.
From the ore that came out, there might be jade veins in the mountains nearby.
Thinking of this, Chen Ziyun's heartbeat suddenly increased a lot. He suddenly remembered the records in "Xu Hongzu's Notes", which mentioned that there were many jade stones in a valley. Could this valley be the place in Xu Xiake's Notes?
Chen Ziyun rushed to Dao Scarqiang's side in a few steps. Liu Canghai looked at the big stone in front of him in surprise, and couldn't close his mouth. The surface of the big stone was white, but there was a faint grayish color. The snow on it was
It has been patted away, but there is still a lot of dead moss. If you don't search carefully, it is really difficult to find the true color under the moss. It seems that Scar Qiang was greedy for big money, so he came up with the idea of making such a stone. Unexpectedly, it was actually found.
He missed the mark.
Ye Ya walked over and looked at the rock surface where the moss had been peeled off with a knife. He was speechless. Liu Canghai grabbed two handfuls of snow from the ground and wiped the surface of the stone vigorously. He took out a rock sample from behind.
With his hammer, he carefully knocked off a small piece from the corner of the stone, placed it in the palm of his hand and observed it carefully.
"Blue and white jade!" Liu Canghai made his own judgment. He looked at Chen Ziyun, who also nodded slowly. Both of them have certain attainments in this area. It is certain that this stone is a piece of jade.
"It's true!" Ye Ya also echoed.
"This piece of jade weighs at least one thousand kilograms." Chen Ziyun rubbed his hand up and felt the coldness coming from the jade. "This is just a conservative estimate. Who knows how deep it is buried underground." Chen Ziyun
He added. Liu Canghai on the side also nodded in agreement, thinking that what Chen Ziyun said made sense. However, he shook his head and said: "It's unscientific... How could such a large piece of jade material appear here... Unless it's here
There is a jade vein, or there is a jade vein with particularly rich mineral deposits in the upper reaches..." Liu Canghai sighed repeatedly, with a puzzled look on his face. Already forty-five years old, he was very rigorous in his studies and could not speak even when it came to academic content.
He was extremely cautious. But at this time, no one noticed him.
"Then, how much is it worth?" Scar Qiang's lips were dry and his mouth was dry, and his voice seemed to stutter.
"Superficial!" Ye Ya glared at Scar Qiang and said, "Are you short of money?"
Dao Scarqiang rubbed his hands together hard and said with a smile: "Sister, when it comes to money, of course the more the better."
Ye Ya sneered and said, "Then you carry it and sell it."
The smile on Dao Scarqiang's face suddenly disappeared. Only then did he remember that there were few people here, and the cliffs on both sides were the roads. This piece of jade, no matter what, could not be moved out completely at the moment, and the task on it was also complicated.
He couldn't be allowed to leave. Dao Scarqiang was a little downcast. This was a sign of discovering the treasure mountain but returning empty-handed.
After Dao Scarqiang discovered the blue and white jade, the others also made great achievements. In the area within a hundred meters, they discovered several large and small pieces of good quality jade. Regarding this discovery, Chen Ziyun seemed to be indifferent.
But in fact, he had already begun to speculate that there must be a jade mine with a large storage capacity in the upper reaches of the valley. Otherwise, how could so much jade be found in this valley? Plus "Xu Hongzu"
According to the relevant records in "Notes", Chen Ziyun is even more certain that if he advances along the valley, he will definitely gain something.
Ye Ya's face was expressionless. He didn't know what she was thinking. But Liu Canghai's face, which was red from the cold, was filled with excitement. He said excitedly: "I dare to swear that there must be a big jade mine here! It's definitely something I've never seen before.
The big jade mine!”
Before that, Shen Sha didn't speak. He just closed his eyes and rested his mind. But after listening to Liu Canghai's words, he immediately became energetic and asked Liu Canghai: "Is this jade mine under your feet?"
Liu Canghai shook his head repeatedly and said: "No. The jade mine is definitely not here. I have observed the rock walls of the valleys on both sides, and there is no possibility of jade mines in the rock formations. The jade mine must be upstream, and it cannot be a hundred miles away.
!The jade here must have been brought down every spring and summer when the snow in the mountains melts!"
"The time is up, let's go." Ye Ya grasped the time very accurately. "The breath of Jade Rakshasa still remains here last night. If we walk along it, we may gain some unexpected gains."
After discovering the jade, everyone seemed a little excited. The fatigue of the night seemed to be nothing to everyone. "This river valley is recorded in "Xu Hongzu's Notes". Chen Ziyun approached Shensha and whispered.
Chen Ziyun was erudite and had a strong memory. He had already memorized the contents of Xu Hongzu's notes by heart. As he descended into the valley and spent a lot of time, he came to a conclusion.
"Well." Shen Sha was also familiar with "Xu Hongzu's Notes". He quickly took over the topic and said: "From the records, Xu Hongzu and your ancestors and others were walking in a valley covered with jade stones.
It lasted three days. I believe that the valley below us is what he called the Jade Valley. When we reached the end, we found a Jade Mountain." When Chen Sha said this, his face looked a little strange, and he said: "But this place,
It's different from the road I took back then. And the direction is also a lot off. The most incredible thing is that according to the predictions on the map, it will take us at least several days to reach the location of Yu Valley. However, don't you think we are going too fast?
Are you done?" When he said this, Shen Sha's eyes glanced at Ye Ya.
Chen Ziyun was also puzzled by this. He couldn't help but ask: "Shen Ju, what agreement did you reach with Ye Ya last night?" After Shen Sha and Ye Ya talked for a while last night, the person in charge of the team started to speak.
The fallen sand turned into leaf buds.
Except for the two of them, no third party knew the content of the conversation. Many people were full of suspicion. Chen Ziyun could vaguely guess the change in Shen Sha's attitude, but he did not have the time or opportunity to give Shen Sha a warning.
Chen Sha sighed, shook his head and said, "I can't tell you now. I will explain it to you when I get there."
