For Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun, this is not just calligraphy inscriptions, but more importantly, every inscription is favored by God. It has been favored by God since its birth. In the following hundreds of years, it has experienced ups and downs.
Hit, being admired by countless people is equivalent to receiving incense. The stone tablet is covered with a thick layer of charm, filled with yellow light, and filled with energy!
Jiang Qiuyun was mesmerized by what she saw. Unknowingly, the heavenly orifice above her head was completely opened, and the flowers of calligraphy blossomed. She was able to communicate with those ancient masters from a distance. It was like eating iced ginseng fruit in the dog days of summer. Not to mention how refreshing it was.
Now! The aura of awe filled her internal organs, boosting her power.
Lu Cheng used the mental technique of "Tiangu swallows the sun and the moon" and swallowed a large amount of Haoran's righteousness into his belly, which also pushed the tenth level of martial arts forward. He felt that coming here for one day would be enough to catch up with the two or three months of training on weekdays.
, it’s really a worthwhile trip!
Jiang Qiuyun said: "Lu Cheng, these inscriptions are peerless treasures. We should come and take a look at them more."
Lu Cheng smiled and said: "It's a pity that the distance is a bit far."
"Come here by plane or high-speed rail, you don't have to drive so hard."
"Well. It's okay to come once a year. If you come too often, it will absorb the aura of awe-inspiringness and may damage the inscription."
"Can a glance from the air damage the inscription?"
"It's possible. It's hard to explain."
"Is this considered feudal superstition?"
"Maybe forget it." Lu Cheng's eyes could see the changes in the Qi movement. He found that after practicing for an hour in each exhibition room, the Qi movement on the stone tablet dropped by half. He thought, "If I stand here for half a day, all the Qi movement will be lost."
If you suck them all away, will it cause irreparable losses?"
He was unsure and did not dare to try.
After all, it is a national treasure, and it is no joke to damage any of it.
In the evening, Lu Cheng had dinner, found an outdoor supplies store, and bought tents, sleeping bags, ground mats, moisture-proof mats, headlamps, flashlights, cooking utensils, kettles, windproof lighters, GPS, jackets, fleece jackets, and sun protection clothing.
I bought ponchos, hiking boots, crampons, glasses, gloves, fleece hats, etc. I also bought some beef jerky, instant noodles, various spiritual foods, and a lot of purified water. I also bought a few extra car tires as spares. Anyway, there are storage bracelets and jade rings, so bring more items to be prepared.
After another night, on the morning of July 11, they set off for Qilian County, Qh Province.
This section of the road is 1,200 kilometers long. They only stopped for a quick snack at noon, and then drove to the destination in one go. It took a total of 14 hours, and it was already 9 pm when they arrived.
After finding a place to rest for the night and having breakfast the next day, they headed to the Sanchahe Jade Mine, Tuolahai Jade Mine and Xiaozaohuo Jade Mine, which were all places where Kunlun jade was produced in the past.
Kunlun Jade, also known as Qinghai Jade, is produced from the eastern edge of the Kunlun Mountains into Qh Province, and is in the same mineralization belt as Hotan Jade. The east of the Kunlun Mountains is called Kunlun Jade, and the north of the Kunlun Mountains is called Hotan Jade.
The straight-line distance between the two is about 300 kilometers. Kunlun jade has a fine texture, elegant and refreshing texture, good oiliness and high transparency. It can be divided into white jade, gray jade, sapphire, leucorrhea with green, sugar-white jade, etc. It is crystal clear and round, pure and flawless, without cracks.
, those without impurities are considered top grade. In 2008, Kunlun jade became the jade used for BJ Olympic medals, and has become famous at home and abroad since then.
However, it is a pity that after more than thirty years of excavation and mining, many of the mineral veins here have been abandoned.
The Xiaozao fire jade mine discovered in 1999 has been mined for many years, and the fine sapphire material and "yellow mouth material" have been mined, leaving the coarse sapphire material with general jade quality.
In 1994, the Tuolahai Jade Mine (Yuniugou Jade Mine) was discovered. There used to be 9 veins. By 1999, there was basically no jade produced in the 9 veins. By 2020, some jade was sporadically exploded only by blind blasting.
Come out. Now I can’t find jade at all.
The Sanchahe Jade Mine, discovered in 1992, is the main mine of Kunlun Jade and has been mined for the longest time. There used to be 11 veins in the "East, Six and West". By 2018, only one vein was still being mined.
The depth exceeds 70 meters, and the origin of the jade vein is estimated to be no more than 100 meters. By 2025, this vein will be mined.
Later, the Tuolahai Xigou Fukunshan jade mine was discovered. The jade mine was robbed as soon as it was discovered. Later, armed police were stationed to guard the mine, but the jade quality was relatively poor and no white jade was produced.
Kunlun Jade, which took the earth 1.4 to 1.7 billion years to form, was completely mined in just 20 years. It can be called the "Kunlun Jade Tragedy".
Lu Cheng came here for fun, and he used Qi-gazing techniques to look for jade and at the same time inspected the spiritual energy in the northwest region.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He traveled westward from Daicheng. When he arrived in Xi'an, his spiritual energy became very weak, only one-third of that of Quancheng and one-sixth of that of Daicheng.
When he arrived at Kunlun Mountain, he found that the spiritual energy here had become richer, at least twice as strong as that in Xi'an.
Looking up at the towering mountains, each one is shrouded in a layer of pure aura. It is brilliant, vast and majestic. Kunlun Mountain is indeed the dragon vein of China. There is spiritual energy emanating from the beginning to the end. It seems that there is a super spiritual vein under the ground to support it.
After tens of millions of years, it has reached the later stage of the life of the spiritual vein. However, due to the opening of the two tombs, the runes intertwined in the air, forming two open rings, absorbing the original energy from the universe and space, allowing the entire Middle Earth to
The spiritual energy has begun to recover.
The recovery of spiritual energy is uneven. Places that originally had spiritual veins recovered first. For example, Daishan Mountain, as a famous Five Mountains mountain, was the first to stimulate the green energy. Another example is Kunlun Mountain. Although it is far away, it also has a moderate recovery.
Lu Cheng regretted not going to Huashan to take a look. According to this speculation, Huashan's spiritual energy should also be revived.
He and Jiang Qiuyun strolled through abandoned mines and wandered in barren mountains and ridges, stopping to dig from time to time.
He brought an engineering shovel, which could dig dirt, but he couldn't dig rocks.
When he encountered a hard rock, he took out his golden dagger, chanted a spell, and cut the stone like tofu.
Lu Cheng thought to himself: "The jade cutting machine at my home can be retired! From now on, I will use a gold dagger to cut jade, which is more convenient and faster than the cutting machine."
Jiang Qiuyun saw the golden dagger for the first time, but she didn't expect it to be so powerful.
She couldn't help but ask: "This is really made of gold, why is it so sharp?"
Lu Cheng said: "The power of the dagger comes from the runes on it. Just like the runes on the amulet have the attributes of 'sturdiness' and 'protection', the dagger, as an offensive weapon, has the runes on it with the attributes of 'sharpness' and 'toughness'
There are more than one rune, and multiple runes are superimposed together to have such great power."
"Where did this dagger come from? Did you make it yourself?"
Lu Cheng didn't want to keep hiding it, so he took the initiative to reveal the secret: "To tell you the truth, I can sleepwalk in other worlds. I got it from other worlds."
"I don't believe it. Since it's sleepwalking, how can you bring something back?"
"I have a storage bracelet and a belt."
"Can storage equipment also be brought along?"
"Yeah."
"What is it like in another world?"
"There are big monsters everywhere, and the environment is extremely dangerous. Because of this, I practice hard and don't dare to slack off at all."
"So that's it."
Jiang Qiuyun believed 80% of it, but she still had two doubts. She believed that Lu Cheng went to some unknown place and brought back muskwort, psoralen, yarrow, mugwort, animal meat, golden nanmu, and other
There are techniques for cultivating witchcraft, but how did Lu Cheng get there? Why was it that no one else could go and only Lu Cheng could go? There is something worth considering here.
She is a very smart woman. She can see the key at a glance, but she will not take the initiative to ask. Who doesn't have a little secret? As a boyfriend, it is pretty good to be able to explain so much.
Lu Cheng couldn't find any jade in the abandoned jade mine. It seemed that all the jade had been dug out by predecessors. Even if it hadn't been dug out, it would be difficult to dig out if it was buried hundreds of meters deep.
He drove an off-road vehicle and wandered around the foot of the nearby mountains, using Zhanqi Qi Technique as he walked.
Unknowingly, I came to the foot of a big mountain dozens of miles away from Wanbaogou. I looked up at the top of the mountain. The mountain was towering and covered with white snow. The energy was extremely strong, the air was clear and agile, and the spiritual energy was dense. It was different.
After they got off the car, without saying a word, they went to climb the mountain. They climbed halfway up the mountain in one go, and then it became very steep and covered with thick snow. It seemed that there was no road at all.
They used crampons, then used "Dragon Kicks", and climbed another two hundred meters to a platform.
The platform is about half an acre in size. There is an ancient altar in the middle. It is made of jade stones and formed into a three-foot-high base. Jade pillars as big as the mouth of a bowl form a circle. The outer skin of the jade pillars is oily black and translucent. One of the jade pillars is broken into
There are two pieces, one half is made of mutton-fat white jade, and the other half is made of green jade, the color is very bright.
The rock behind the platform is sunken inward, and a pine tree grows inexplicably! It is about half a meter thick, and the tree shape is twisted and strong, full of unyielding flavor.
