Chapter 497 A Worthless Gloomy Wood

Although these poisonous insects and beasts thrown into the jungle will not reconnoiter the enemy's situation for him, they still have the effect of warning.

Those people carried small wooden signs into the jungle with them, and Feng Tiance's poisonous insects and beasts generally did not take the initiative to attack them, and would avoid them after recognizing simple commands.

So many animals regularly avoid a few people, and on the three-dimensional map in his mind, it will show some kind of "little red dot" restlessness. This is the signal, the signal to remind Feng Tiance to pay attention.

"Then wait, let's see my luck this time. ”

Feng Tiance didn't feel that he could do anything, he made all the preparations, and simply found a hidden place to rest on the edge of the giant wood cemetery.

Whether this thing is successful or not, three points depend on judgment, and seven points depend on luck.

Anyway, he was tired, so he could go into the space and sleep for a few hours, and if he came out again, the outside time would not have passed for a few minutes.

That night, he kept checking the map in his head. Most of the time, his eyes were focused on the area of the Giant Wood Cemetery. It's just that, according to his observations, there doesn't seem to be much movement.

It wasn't until after five o'clock in the morning, when the sky began to light a little, that he noticed something unusual. He perked up and said in his heart: Here we are!

At this time, five men in black were making a difficult march along a path that was led by a geological fault to the giant wood cemetery.

Not long after they entered the jungle, they experienced the horror of the southwest mountain range. In just a short stretch of the road, they saw a python, countless poisonous snakes, and even several huge beehives in a few large trees.

"It's a paradise for animals...... In these days, even the primeval forest does not have so many poisonous insects and beasts, okay? But fortunately, the small wooden card on the body is very useful, these poisonous snakes not only did not take the initiative to attack, but also avoided us one after another. ”

Even jungle experts are hard-pressed to see this kind of venomous snake and wasp gathering in full swing. The five of them walked all the way, and their scalps were numb. To be honest, if it weren't for the small wooden tag that Mu En provided them now, they might have died.

"Leave that alone, they won't attack us anyway. Everyone, hurry up, it's not far from your destination. ”

The man in black who led the team had a good psychological quality, and he was holding a map to correct the route as he walked.

"Boss, what the hell is it? To be honest, I really don't want to come to the hellish Southwest Mountains. Haven't you heard from the locals? This jungle is so dangerous that if you don't pay attention, you won't recover. ”

A few people talked in a whisper, not to argue about anything, but purely to strengthen their courage.

"You'll know when you get there, don't ask now. Besides, our task is to find the exact location, and many more people will follow. ”

The man in black in the lead was obviously reluctant to say more, in his opinion, the wooden plaque on his body was still very useful, at least the current situation would not threaten their lives.

The five of them were cautious along the way, but they didn't know that the poisonous snake commotion caused by them all the way had already been noticed by Feng Tiance.

In the morning, the sun had just risen, and the fog in the jungle had not yet lifted. The five men in black had already walked into the giant wood graveyard.

The man in black who led the team took out the map again and began to search carefully. A few of them stopped and walked until they came to the edge of a canyon.

"This is it, you guys, try to dig in the canyon, and after confirming the clues, we will call the follow-up men and horses. ”

These five people had no interest in the tall trees lying down in the giant wood cemetery. Instead, I came to this canyon where there was nothing.

Well, it can't be said that there is nothing, there are still weeds and shrubs. There are also large and small gravel.

The five men in black scattered, took out the sapper shovels they had brought with them, and began to dig in the canyon. These people had obviously been given specific orders before they set out, and the excavation of the five men was very methodical, not indiscriminate.

At this time, Feng Tiance was hiding behind a mountain rock not far away and watched them.

The men dug a small pit nearly a man high, and then spread horizontally like trenches, and five trenches that could only pass through one man slowly stretched out in the ravine.

Without the help of large machinery, these people were not very productive. Feng Tiance hid in place and observed silently, occasionally drinking a little water, and was not in a hurry.

Before I knew it, it was past noon, and suddenly one of the five people shouted: "If you find something, you all come and help me." ”

When the other four men heard the sound, they immediately left the trench they had dug, grabbed their sapper shovels and ran over.

The five of them worked together to expand the working surface, and soon a corner of a piece of black wood buried in the dirt was revealed. When the sapper shovel was struck, it actually made a sound similar to that of gold and stone, which shows that the density of this thing is very large.

Feng Tiance was a little far away, unable to take a closer look at what they had found. But now, he is ninety percent sure that these people are not looking for the "ripe agarwood" buried in the ground, but looking for gloomy wood.

So what is gloomy wood? The so-called gloomy wood is in ancient times, due to the action of natural disasters such as earthquakes, mudslides, and mountain floods, trees were buried deep in the mud. It is formed after thousands or even tens of thousands of years of carbonization in an oxygen-free, high-pressure environment.

Strictly speaking, gloomy wood has been removed from the category of trees, and should be called "treasure". Its density is very large, and the texture of the core material with the carbonized surface layer removed is clear and beautiful, and its surface is as bright as a mirror when polished.

Gloomy wood was often used by the royal family in ancient times for the construction of palace columns, various furniture and coffins, and is a very valuable material.

A well-made, high-quality gloomy wood table can shout a high price of 100 million Chinese coins, and any chair with an average texture can be sold for tens of millions of dollars.

From gloomy wood to just yang, many rich people like to collect this kind of "treasure" and use it for town houses.

According to the different trees before its formation, gloomy wood can be divided into golden silk nanmu gloomy wood, yew gloomy wood, and iron power wood gloomy wood...... Wait a minute.

"However, the formation of gloomy wood generally takes more than thousands of years and is often buried deep underground. These guys didn't dig that deep, how did they find it?"

Feng Tiance was a little puzzled at first, but after taking a closer look at this terrain, he had an idea in his heart. Perhaps this area was originally an ancient river channel, but later due to changes in the geological structure, countless towering trees were buried in the silt at the bottom of the river.

After thousands of years, the area has been washed away again. As the river dries up, the ancient riverbed, which had been buried for thousands of years, gradually resurfaced.

That's why someone will find out this secret. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the gloomy wood in the deep mountains and old forests to see the light of day again, unless some large-scale construction projects may be discovered.

Feng Tiance could speculate that it was definitely not these black-clothed men and their masters who first discovered this ancient riverbed.

"Hehe, thank you guys for showing me the way. ”

After Feng Tiance had a basic judgment, he began to take action. He quietly left the place, and then the leopards, snakes, and other animals that he had released into the jungle gathered around this canyon.

If you look at the three-dimensional map in his mind, countless red dots are converging towards this area, and the dense density is very scary.

Then he approached the canyon and continued to observe the five men.

The five men in black did not stop, but continued to dig in the dirt until a black tree trunk more than five meters long emerged from the soil.

"Brothers, look, this is gloomy wood!"

The leader of the five men finally confirmed one thing, and there were many of these gloomy trees buried in the pits in the canyon here.

"No wonder we have to keep this operation secret, even the four of us don't know what we're looking for. It's gloomy wood, priceless gloomy wood!Chief, what are we going to do now?"

Gloomy wood is not easy to dig, and even more difficult is to transport.

Because the density of gloomy wood is too large, after an ancient tree of tens of meters is formed into gloomy wood, it often weighs more than ten tons, or even dozens of tons. Not to mention the five of them, even ten times as many people, they would not be able to dig up all these gloomy trees and transport them out of the primeval forest.

"Our task is to determine the location, and the rest is none of our business. Brothers, now take a break, eat something and drink some water, and then report to the top. ”

The leading man in black climbed up from the tunnel, and then led a few people to find a few rocks and sit down to rest.

Several people took out dry food and water from their backpacks, and talked in whispers while eating and drinking.

There was a gentle breeze in the canyon, and there was silence except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves and the wild grass. Suddenly, several of them all raised their heads suddenly, looking around with solemn expressions.

"Rustling ......"

It was like the sound of countless animals crawling in the forest, from far and near, so frightened that the hairs of the five people stood on end.

"What's going on?"

How dare they sit still, and they all stand up one after another.

After a while, countless poisonous snakes quickly crawled over from the mountains and among the grass. Look at that posture, it is to surround and drown this person.

"What the hell, where did you get so many poisonous snakes?"

The five men in black hurriedly threw down the food and water bottles in their hands and took out their pistols from their bodies. The problem is that there are thousands of poisonous snakes in all directions, and it makes no difference whether there are weapons in hand or not.

"Doesn't it mean that if you have a small wooden tag on your body, you won't be attacked by these poisonous insects?"

The voices of the men in black who spoke were trembling, and the only hope was the small wooden sign on his body.

"The hell knows! Brothers, don't act rashly, let's run quickly when we find an opportunity. ”

At this time, there was no time to take out the satellite phone, and the leading man in black had his eyes rolling, just looking for a way to escape.

"Whew......"

"Whew......"

With the roar of the beast one after another, a ...... Two ...... There were probably seven or eight leopards behind the viper group. These leopards are also scattered in all directions, blocking their escape routes.

"Hell, hell!"

The five men in black immediately panicked, even if they had weapons in their hands, they were not the opponents of so many "jungle killers".

"Giggle...... Cluck, and tigers......"

The teeth of the speakers were chattering, and several Indochinese tigers appeared in their sight. Where is this primeval forest, it's a tiger's den in Longtan.

The encirclement was gradually shrinking, and the eyes of the five black men were full of despair. They're not rookies, they're all jungle experts. Regardless of how this strange scene happened in front of them, one thing was clear to them, they would never be able to escape from the siege of so many poisonous snakes and beasts.

"Head..... Boss, can't you shoot?"

There is a limit to man's patience with fear, and beyond that limit, he is either scared to death or mad.

One of the men in black was on the verge of collapse, almost losing his mind. Fortunately, he still had a little hope in his heart, so he asked.

"Shoot? Are you so stupid? No one is allowed to shoot. Don't you think it's strange? These poisonous snakes and beasts are like an army surround us, and someone is directing them! A broken pistol can't save us, so put them away. ”

At this time, the poisonous snake stopped a meter or two away from several people, but surprisingly, they did not continue to attack, they just stopped in place and stared coldly at the five men in black.

The five of them didn't dare to move, beads of sweat slid down their foreheads, and none of them reached out to wipe them.

Feng Tiance was hiding not far away at this time, watching this scene through the cracks in the rocks. He was not at peace in his heart, and kept asking himself: "To kill these people or not?"

Yes, in the face of the temptation of huge profits, he moved to kill.

......

Minutes and seconds passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was another night.

King Suleiman sat alone in his study, feeling more and more irritable. Because until now, no news has come back from the five people he sent out.

At this point, he took out the yellowed map from the safe again. This picture is at least 30 years old, and it is a priceless treasure found by a senior in the family when he was "picking incense" in the Cardamom Mountains.

It was a war-torn time, and his predecessor was not able to transport these "treasures" out, so he drew a map.

It's just that when the seniors walked out of the Cardamom Mountains, they accidentally stepped on a landmine. When he was dying, he commissioned a local native, asking him to send the paper to Suleiman Island, promising great benefits.

The key parts of the map are written in coded language, which is not readable by others, and only the people of Suleiman's royal family know what they mean.

But for some reason, the native did not immediately send the map to Suleiman, but left it in his home for many years, through two generations.

It wasn't until a few years ago that King Suleiman was found with a map. King Suleiman knew that the picture was true as soon as he looked at the code words marked on it. He immediately paid the man $100,000, but killed him on his way back.

From that moment on, King Suleiman had been secretly searching for these gloomy woods. However, due to the age, many terrains and landforms in the forest have changed, and it is only recently that he has determined the general area.
