After dinner, Su Yu returned to the courtyard where he lived, citing sleepiness.
In the entire Su Mansion, Wu Ling, Meiji, and Shi Shi all have their own courtyards to live in.
Su Yu's daily life in the evening usually consisted of the rain and dew being soaked evenly that night, and serving three people at the same time.
But tonight, Su Yu had something serious to do, so he had to hurry up.
When the sky darkened, Su Yu created two clones and used the golden-winged kite to fly to the outside of Tai'an City. Then he asked the clone to activate the phoenix bracelet and flew straight to the northeast.
Mang State borders Liangzhou, and the area is also extremely cold. The food grown on the land every year can only satisfy the people in the country.
However, the territory of the Mang Kingdom is densely covered with monster forests. These monsters are mainly monsters that can withstand the severe cold.
As for monster beasts that can withstand severe cold, their hides have an excellent thermal insulation effect.
Coupled with the exquisite appearance of the fur, these furs are very popular among women.
It is precisely for this reason that the furs of monster beasts in the Mang Kingdom eventually became the most favorite animal skin cloaks of the high-ranking officials in the Wei Dynasty.
It took Su Yu half an hour to reach Liangzhou.
He could clearly feel that the temperature in the air was dropping rapidly.
Although the New Year has passed, the severe cold weather in Liangzhou has not weakened at all.
For ordinary people, staying outside in such weather for a day can freeze them to death.
Warriors also need to constantly circulate their vitality in order to withstand the severe cold.
"I really didn't expect that the weather in Liangzhou would be so bad."
Su Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised, then he took out a mink fur cloak from the space finger and put it on his body.
This mink fur cloak is one of the dowries given by the Wu family. It is the fur of an eighth-level demon mink.
After putting on the mink fur cloak, Su Yu instantly felt much warmer.
After spending another stick of incense, Su Yu had flown out of the border of Wei Dynasty and officially entered the territory of Mang Kingdom.
In his sight, a city dormant in the snow and ice came into Su Yu's eyes.
The city in front of you is Taiji City, one of the three large cities in the Mang Kingdom.
As one of the trading platforms between Northern Qi and Wei, Taiji City made a lot of money just by providing such a platform.
If people from the two countries want to enter Taiji City, they need to pay one tael of silver individually, and if they are traveling on business, they need to pay one percent of the value of the goods.
In the Zhenwu Division, Su Yu had already investigated the information about the Mang Kingdom.
In the territory of Mang Kingdom, there is a soul palace level warrior who is stationed. As for which of the three cities he lives in, there is no way of knowing.
In order to avoid attracting this person's attention, Su Yu did not fly directly into Taiji City, but chose to land not far outside the city, and then arranged for a clone to walk into the city.
When he arrived at the gate of Taiji City, there was only a city wall more than ten meters high, which made Su Yu a little surprised.
Can a city wall of this height resist the attack of an army?
But after thinking about it, Su Yu understood the wisdom of the people who built the city.
The Mang Kingdom can be said to be struggling to survive in the cracks between the Wei Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.
It simply does not believe that it has the ability to resist the two countries.
Since you can't defeat it, then just lie down. Why spend the money to build a city wall?
If the city wall is really built, I don't know whether it is used to defend against foreign enemies or used to turn it into a prison for oneself.
In addition, he respectfully makes offerings to the two countries every year and acts as his younger brother honestly. The Northern Qi and the Great Wei are probably happy to see the results.
After all, an independent trading platform is indeed needed between the two major countries to promote trade between the two parties.
In addition, there are high mountains everywhere in the Mang Kingdom. Even if the Northern Qi and the Wei Dynasty were wrestling with each other, they would not choose to spread out their armies to fight with real swords and guns here.
After paying a tael of silver at the city gate, the clone successfully entered Taiji City.
As soon as they passed the corridor of the city gate, a Yaman came up quickly.
"Brother, are you from Da Wei?"
"Can I help you with anything? The price is easy to tell."
This was a middle-aged man, wearing a large cloak with various patches on it, who came forward.
The big cloak he was wearing was probably the fur of a monster beast that had been hacked to death with a knife. Because of its poor condition, it could not be sold at a high price.
However, this kind of animal skin with poor quality is regarded as a treasure by ordinary people.
They can't afford the good-quality monster furs.
And this poor-quality fur, after being mended and repaired, is actually not much worse at keeping out the cold, but it is within the reach of ordinary people.
In the extremely cold weather of Mang Country, without a monster fur to keep out the cold, it was difficult for them to even go out.
Su Yu flipped his wrist, took out an ingot weighing ten taels and threw it over.
Yaren caught the silver with quick eyes and hands, his eyes lit up, and he said with a flattering smile: "Sir, little Kang Weidong, how can I help you?"
We were brothers just now, and now we are adults?
He is really a guy who knows how to make money.
The corner of Su Yu's mouth twitched, and then he said calmly: "Do you know where Diecui Mountain is?"
When he flew here, the entire Mang Kingdom was covered in ice and snow, and he couldn't find the location of Diecui Mountain.
Hovering in the sky, the lake has been frozen for a long time and covered with snow. I don't know where it is.
It was precisely for this reason that he came to Taiji City, hoping to find a guide to take him to Diecui Mountain.
When he arrived at Diecui Mountain, he would confirm whether it was the location depicted on the map.
"Diecui Mountain?"
Kang Weidong couldn't help but was startled, and then smiled and said: "Sir, Diecui Mountain is located fifty miles to the south. In the summer, the scenery of Diecui Mountain is quite good, but in this weather, there is nothing interesting in that area of Diecui Mountain.
"
"Sir, there is a new Langsi Fang opened in Taiji City. Do you want me to take you to see it?"
Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He sent three beautiful girls thousands of miles away to come here. Could it be that they were here for romance?
In such a cold weather, the half-brothers couldn't even stand up.
He flipped his wrist again and found a large silver ingot weighing a hundred taels in his hand.
Seeing the ingot of silver in Su Yu's hand, Kang Weidong's eyes instantly went straight.
"Take me to Diecui Mountain, and this ingot of silver is the reward." Su Yu said calmly.
When Kang Weidong heard this, he couldn't help but show a hesitant expression on his face.
Diecui Mountain is a full fifty miles away from Taiji City.
And this late at night, the monster beasts outside the city are looking for food everywhere. Not to mention that he is an ordinary person, even if he is a warrior in the body refining realm, he is very likely to become the food for the monster beasts.
Although he loves money, he also understands the importance of life.
"Sir, if it were daytime, I would agree to it."
Kang Weidong smiled bitterly and said: "It's late at night, and the eyes of the monsters outside are all red with hunger. If I take you to Diecui Mountain at this time, you may have become the monster's food before people arrive."
When Su Yu heard this, he couldn't help but nodded.
It is indeed difficult for the monsters outside Taiji City to find food in this extremely cold weather.
In this case, going to Diecui Mountain, which is just fifty miles away, becomes very dangerous.
But he finally made it here, so he couldn't waste time here.
Su Yu said calmly: "If you are worried about safety, you can rest assured that I can protect you. I will send you back after finding the location of Diecui Mountain."
Kang Weidong still waved his hand and said: "No, no, no."
It's just that Su Yu long ago didn't want to waste time anymore.
He grabbed Kang Weidong by the collar, and then flew up to the roof. The dragon wings behind him spread out and flew straight into the sky.
"ah!!!!"
Looking at Taiji City getting farther and farther away from him and the height he was at at the moment, Kang Weidong let out a shrill scream.
Su Yu said calmly: "If you dare to make any noise again, I will throw you away."
Kang Weidong: "."
In an instant, Su Yu had brought Kang Weidong to fifty miles south of Taiji City, and dropped down again.
"Is this where Diecui Mountain is located?"
Su Yu looked at the frightened Kang Weidong and asked calmly.
Kang Weidong looked around blankly. The surrounding area was already completely white. Coupled with the pitch black night, he had no idea where he was now.
He murmured to himself: "It's too dark. I don't know if this is Pincui Mountain."
"Um?"
Su Yu's tone couldn't help but become cold.
"Sir, it's winter, I really don't know if this is Diecui Mountain."
Kang Weidong smiled bitterly: "And it's night again."
At this moment, he couldn't help but regret a little as to why he had to step in to be Su Yu's teether.
It's okay now. This place is a full forty or fifty miles away from Taiji City. It's very difficult for an ordinary person like him to go back.
Su Yu said calmly: "In that case, just walk back alone."
When Kang Weidong heard this, his face couldn't help but twitch.
But he suddenly seemed to remember something and said quickly: "Sir, I know how to determine whether this is Diecui Mountain."
"oh?"
Su Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "How to confirm?"
"Sir, this little man from Diecuishan has been here several times with his family."
Kang Weidong said respectfully: "At the foot of Diecui Mountain, there is a lake called Yuemian Lake. This lake takes the shape of one and a half moons."
"And on the shore of Moon Crown Lake, there is a huge stone with the words Moon Crown Lake carved on it."
"As long as we find this stone, we can determine whether this place is Diecui Mountain."
When Su Yu heard this, his consciousness immediately spread in a single direction.
After spending about a stick of incense, Su Yu finally found the stone with the three characters "Yue Mian Lake" carved on it.
The location where they just settled was the center of the Moon Crown Lake.
The entire lunar corona lake has long been frozen into one piece by the severe cold weather. It is impossible to know the landscape below just by looking at it with the naked eye.
"Sir, look, this is the stone tablet. The place where we were just standing is the Moon Crown Lake."
Kang Weidong looked a little pleased, then pointed at the towering snow-capped mountains bordering the Moon Crown Lake and said:
"Sir, if it goes as expected, this mountain should be Diecui Mountain."
Su Yu looked in the direction where Kang Weidong's eyes were pointing, and a towering snow-capped mountain came into his eyes.
Su Yubenzun, who was dozens of miles away, took out the Kantu map from the space thumb, and then compared it with the green mountain in front of the clone.
When he saw that Diecui Mountain completely overlapped with the Kanyu map in his hand, Su Yu couldn't help but feel a little excited.
If nothing unexpected happens, this Diecui Mountain is most likely the location depicted on the map.
"Sir, you have found Diecui Mountain now, what do you think?"
Kang Weidong on the side shrank his neck and said tentatively: "Can you send me back first? I don't want any money for that."
The man in front of him can bring him here in the blink of an eye, which shows that his martial arts cultivation level is already very high.
Now he just wants to return to Taiji City as soon as possible. As for the one hundred taels of silver, if the other party gives it to him, he will accept it.
If the other party doesn't give it, then he doesn't have to take it.
After all, compared to life, money is nothing more than an external possession.
Su Yu smiled and nodded, took out two ingots of silver weighing a hundred taels and threw them over.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Kang Weidong hurriedly used the thrown silver and said with a somewhat surprised look on his face.
"This extra one hundred taels of silver is my extra reward for you."
As soon as Su Yu finished speaking, he grabbed Kang Weidong by the collar and swept towards Taiji City again.
In this deserted place, if Kang Weidong had spent the whole night outside the city, he would probably not have a chance to leave even a single bone.
The other party found Diecui Mountain for him, and he couldn't let him lose his life in vain in the wild.
And just when the clone took Kang Weidong back to Taiji City, Su Yu's original body and clone had already swept to Diecui Mountain and landed.
Su Yu glanced at the specific markings on the map.
According to the marks on the Kanyu map, the specific location of the Yuanjing vein is the fifth mountain behind Diecui Mountain.
But when Su Yu looked up at Diecui Mountain, his brows couldn't help but frown.
Because behind Diecui Mountain, there are only four mountains in total.
Su Yu's clone flew out and landed on the top of the fourth mountain.
The location that was supposed to be on the fifth block was flat and covered with thick snow.
"Could it be said that someone has already arrived first?"
Su Yu frowned and murmured in a low voice.
The situation in front of me is like someone discovered this Yuanjing vein and then dug up the entire mountain.
If that's the case, then after working so hard for so long, isn't it like trying to draw water from a bamboo basket in vain?
Su Yu's face looked a little ugly.
After working for so long and finally getting nothing, this undoubtedly made him very uncomfortable.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yu's clone landed where the fifth mountain should have been.
The dragon wings behind him suddenly flapped, and a strong wind swept out. The snow within a radius of several hundred feet was instantly blown away, exposing the frozen soil.
In this cold Mang country, the soil at this time is as hard as gold and iron.
Looking at this piece of frozen soil, Su Yu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Something's wrong."
Su Yu murmured in a low voice: "If this place was really a Yuanjing mine, there is no need for this fifth mountain to be razed to the ground."
"And the exposed surface in this radius does not look like there are traces left by artificial excavation of Yuanjing veins."
"It is impossible that all the Yuanjing veins have been hollowed out, and there are no traces of mining around them."
"Could it be that I missed something or ignored it?"
Thinking of this, Su Yu couldn't help but fall on the Yuanjing vein marked on the map of Kanyu again.
This map depicts mountains, the most conspicuous of which is Diecui Mountain, and then the lake at the foot of Diecui Mountain.
Then the specific location of the Yuanjing vein is a star point, printed at the foot of the fifth mountain behind Diecui Mountain.
But now that the fifth mountain doesn’t exist, where does the Yuanjing vein come from?
It couldn't be that guy from hundreds of years ago who deliberately created this embarrassing map to tease future generations, right?
If this is the case, then it has to be said that he succeeded in doing it.
But why did he do this?
Just toying with future generations?
Is that guy really that free?
Su Yu stared at the map of Kanyu in his hand, frowning.
Stare at the star point on the Kanyu map and the mountain with the Yuanjing mineral vein.
This fifth mountain is actually exactly the same as Diecui Mountain, except that the two sides are turned upside down like mirrors.
Upside down?
"Could it be."
Su Yu couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, as if a bolt of thunder suddenly flashed through his mind.
"This fifth mountain actually does not exist in itself."
Su Yu's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he murmured: "The mark marked on the map seems to be the fifth mountain, but what it depicts is the reflection of Diecui Mountain."
"And the reflection of Diecui Mountain will only appear under one condition."
"That is reflected by the lake at the foot of Pincui Mountain."
"And the Yuanjing veins recorded on the Kanyu map are themselves under this lake."
Su Yu immediately realized that the person who might have designed the map would pass this secret on to his descendants.
However, due to various accidents, this map was leaked to later generations.
And the person who obtained the map does not know the secrets on the map, so naturally there is no way to find the real Yuanjing vein with the help of the map.
"What an old fox."
Su Yu cursed secretly in his heart, but his face couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Now is the time to confirm your guess.
Under his control, the clone flew into the air above the lake, and the dragon wings behind him suddenly flapped.
"Blood dances in the sky!"
Countless dragon scale feather blades sprang out from the dragon wings, and then swept towards the ice that connected to the lake surface.
“Bang bang bang bang.”
The dragon scale feather blade hit the ice, and a constant muffled sound rang in Su Yu's ears.
When all the dragon-scale feather blades hit the ice, a foot-deep layer of ice had been carved out of the ice where the dragon-scale feather blades had been shot.
But there is still a thick layer of ice underneath.
Seeing this scene, Su Yu was secretly speechless. How deep was the lake frozen?
This also further supports his guess. If you are not aware of the secrets of Kanyu Map, you may not think that the Yuanjing mineral vein is under the lake.
The geographical location of Mangguo means that the lake is frozen for at least seven months of the year.
Even if you get this Kan map and successfully find this place, you will probably only search for a while and then have to choose to leave.
This lake covered with thick ice will be abandoned during the search.
At this time, another clone also rushed back.
It took half an hour for the two clones to break the ice with their own blood dance. Ten feet below the ice surface, the lake water finally burst out of the ice.
"call."
The two clones couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Continuously performing the group martial art of Blood Dance in the Sky consumed a lot of energy for the two of them.
After resting for a while to regain his strength, the clone took the luminous pearl that the other clone took out from the space ring, and then put on the giant elephant fish air bag left in his hand after leaving the Martial Saint's Tomb last time.
After making all these preparations, the clone took a deep breath and jumped into the lake where the ice had been broken.
The first thing Su Yu felt was the biting chill hitting his forehead.
Although it is the clones who experience it personally, the consciousness of the two clones is shared with the main body, so the feelings of the clones at the moment are all felt by the main body.
"Fuck, it's so cold."
Su Yu, who was controlling the clone's actions in the distance, suddenly trembled.
If the Yuanjing mineral vein is not found under the lake, then everything he has done will be a loss to his grandma's family.
Su Yu mobilized this vitality to circulate crazily in his body, driving the blood to circulate rapidly in his body, and he suddenly felt better.
"If my cultivation level were lower, I might not be able to hold on."
Su Yu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
As long as he only has the cultivation level of Iron Bone Realm and the strength of his body, there is no way for him to dive into the freezing cold lake.
The current lake water was like a bone-piercing needle, pricking him constantly.
Under the control of Su Yu, the clone held the luminous pearl, and then dived all the way towards the lake.
After about a cup of tea, the clone successfully dived to the bottom of the lake.
The bottom of the lake, which is tens of meters deep, is undoubtedly too warm. Under the light of the night pearl, you can even see schools of fish swimming back and forth around it.
Without knowing the exact size of the lake, Su Yu prepared to make a quick decision and search it quickly.
The time he can hold his breath, plus the oxygen provided by the air bag, can probably sustain him at the bottom of the lake for half an hour.
If you don't find it within half an hour, you can only go to the lake to breathe and rest for a while.
But after experiencing the cold when entering the water, it was undoubtedly a kind of torture for him to experience it again.
Therefore, Su Yu was prepared to seize the time and complete the search within half an hour.
Regardless of whether the Yuanjing mineral vein is at the bottom of the lake, it must be solved within half an hour.
Immediately, Su Yu held the luminous pearl and quickly searched at the bottom of the lake.
When half an hour was about to pass, Su Yu's eyes were suddenly attracted by the stone wall at the foot of Diecui Mountain.
The lake Su Yu dived into was actually closely adjacent to Diecui Mountain.
The foot of part of Diecui Mountain is located in this lake.
And in Diecui Mountain under the lake, there is an artificially carved cave.
At this moment, Su Yu finally understood everything depicted on the map.
That specific star point is located at the foot of the fifth mountain.
And this fifth mountain itself is the reflection of Diecui Mountain. In other words, the Yuanjing mineral vein is actually at the foot of Diecui Mountain.
But the foot of the mountain is not the foot of the mountain above the lake, but the foot of the mountain below the lake.
Su Yu hurriedly swam towards the cave.
When he sneaked into the cave, everything he saw in front of him made his eyes freeze.
Inside the cave, there are ten wooden boxes stacked, and it is unknown how much time has passed.
Su Yu stepped forward and opened the first wooden box in front of him.
The material of the wooden box is very good, and even after hundreds of years, there is still no trace of corrosion.
When the wooden box was opened, the scene inside the wooden box came into Su Yu's eyes.
Yuanjing, the wooden box is full of Yuanjing, and it is the best Yuanjing!
Su Yu couldn't help but feel a little dry in the mouth.
In such a big box, all the top-grade crystals are contained in it.
In the past six months, he has often dealt with Yuan Jing, and he can roughly guess that there are at least 10,000 top-quality Yuan Jings in a wooden box without counting them.
Ten thousand top-grade Yuan Crystals, converted into ten million low-grade Yuan Crystals!
And there are ten such wooden boxes in this cave.
In other words, a rough estimate of the Yuan Jing here is no less than 100 million!
"It's really a fortune."
Su Yu's eyes widened and his heart pounded.
With this amount of Yuanjing, even if he is unable to use tonics to obtain attribute points in the future, these 100,000 top-quality Yuanjing will be enough for him to not worry about cultivation resources in the next few years.
"No wonder the people in the Jingzhou Yama Palace have tried so hard to get the map in Huang Jingyan's hands. I'm afraid that the King of Hell in the Jingzhou Yama Palace knows some inside information and will use any means to rescue Huang Jingyan."
"Fortunately it's not a Yuanjing vein, otherwise it would take a lot of effort for me to mine it."
"If nothing unexpected happens, hundreds of years ago, someone made a huge amount of wealth, but was worried about being coveted by outsiders, so he hid these Yuan Jing here, leaving it for future generations to take away these Yuan Jing and draw them.
I got a Kan map, now it’s much easier for me.”
Su Yu thought to himself.
A total of 100,000 top-grade Yuanjing, this amount of money can buy a heavenly weapon, right?
"It's a pity that I didn't bring the space wrench with me."
Su Yu thought for a moment, not wanting to come down again, so he could only fold all the ten wooden boxes in the cave, then pick them up and swim toward the lake.
"It really echoes what I said in my previous life. I may not be able to carry a hundred pounds of iron, but I can not only carry a hundred pounds of gold, but I can also run."
Su Yu cursed in his heart.
Ten boxes of top-grade Yuanjing were nearly a foot high, but Su Yu was still able to hold them on his right shoulder, and then swam toward the lake as fast as flying.
At this time, Su Yuben had already moved to the lake and was waiting quietly.
With his space thumb, he could easily stuff these ten wooden boxes into them, and then he would be able to return home.
When the avatar carried ten wooden boxes and swept up to the lake, just as the main body stepped forward to put the wooden boxes into the space and snap the fingers.
"I really didn't expect that there would be such a large number of top-quality Yuan Crystals hidden at the bottom of the lake in Diecui Mountain. It's incredible."
A chuckle suddenly came from a few feet away.
Su Yu's body suddenly stiffened, and his spiritual consciousness did not detect this person.
There are only two possibilities for this situation.
The opponent has a treasure that blocks his spiritual consciousness, or he has been promoted to the soul palace realm.
He was extremely alert, and then slowly turned his head to look towards the place where the sound came from.
I saw an old man with a face full of grooves. At this moment, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, looking at the three of them faintly.
Soul Palace Realm Warrior!
When did the other party catch up?
Could it be that I went to Taiji City and was discovered by this person’s consciousness?
Su Yu's heart trembled slightly.
The old man looked at Su Yu and the others like a cat playing with a mouse, and said slowly: "Liang accepted these ten boxes of top-quality Yuan Jing with a smile."
