Chapter 720: Mountains are not like mountains, and water is not like water

If Savage Hill is where the devil lives, then Hpakant is the entrance to hell.

The small city of Hpakant, on the edge of the Savage Mountain, and those beautiful emeralds, as if they are the jewels of the devil to tempt the world, lure you closer to hell, to their arms, and then swallow you in one gulp.

In search of a new jade mine, a large number of people died after entering the Savage Mountain, where the environment was too harsh and a huge crisis for anyone.

"It's not far, only two or three kilometers away, this distance can be reached by walking, well, that's it, when the matter here is over, let's go there to see, but before we go, we must remember to bring enough things we need, such as quinine and other medicines, I have heard a lot of terrible stories about Savage Mountain......"

"Don't worry about this, I've been ready for a long time, I've brought everything I should have brought, in fact, you don't have to worry too much, we've also been in Savage Mountain, didn't we come out alive?"

I think that the Chinese Expeditionary Force fought bloodily and repeatedly defeated the enemy, causing the Japanese army to suffer a heavy blow. But later, due to the poor cooperation of the Allies, the battle was lost, and the expeditionary force had to retreat. But the cruel Japanese army wanted to kill the expeditionary force and cut off the expeditionary force's return channel. The soldiers of the expeditionary force followed General Du Yuming and chose an extremely dangerous way back - through a primeval forest called Savage Mountain to enter the country.

Before entering the Savage Mountain, the expeditionary troops never imagined that this primeval forest would turn out to be an extremely terrifying "green magic cave"! Because of the wild beasts raging in the forest, the miasma was pervasive, and diseases were epidemic. Lacking medical care and food, more than 30,000 expeditionary troops died here. This is an extremely tragic episode in the world's military history.

In the end, there were only a few thousand warriors who made it out of Savage Mountain alive, and there was only one female warrior among them.

The female warrior is still alive today. Recalling the great tragedy of those years, the old man's eyes would become moist and red every time, and she said in a trembling voice: "Looking back now, I can't believe that I was able to walk out of the Savage Mountain alive! When I climbed the Wild Man Mountain, I had only one thought in my mind: Even if I die, I will climb to the land of the motherland and die!"

Zhang Tianyuan had heard such a thing, so he naturally had a very strong fear of Savage Mountain, and since he had decided to go, he was not prepared to die. So there are a lot of things that need to be prepared, and then you must be prepared.

Two or three kilometers away, for Zhang Tianyuan and Shelin is not far, even in the mountains, with their foot, it should be relatively easy to arrive, the problem is that after arriving at that location, it will inevitably take a while to find the treasure, it is estimated that it will take at least four or five hours. One round trip a day is definitely enough.

As for how to get there, this is simple, and he directly told Yang Yaoshan that he was going to hunt nearby, and after he got to the mountains. Then going there is their freedom, and Yang Yaoshan can't accompany them all the time.

Someone may have said that Savage Mountain is so dangerous. Didn't the expeditionary force learn a deep lesson? Didn't you go there to look for death?

That's right, if Zhang Tianyuan hadn't come to Hpakant. If he hadn't stood at the foot of Savage Mountain and looked out, he might have given up. But since it has arrived, the treasure may be close at all, so give it up like this? I don't know if others will be willing, anyway, he Zhang Tianyuan will definitely not be willing.

This time it's just to see, if there is really a treasure, then slowly find a way to take things out in the future, if not, it's all a trip.

You must know that the scenery of Savage Mountain is very beautiful, just like many poisonous snakes, it always looks so beautiful.

Zhang Tianyuan and Snake Lin have been discussing the plan in the house, and Snake Lin even took into account the specific route and possible troubles, and the two of them deduced this adventure no less than ten times, and only after confirming that they had chosen the safest path did they put their minds at ease.

After finishing the work, when he looked at the time, it was already noon, Zhang Tianyuan touched his hungry stomach, smiled bitterly, and was thinking about whether to go out to eat something, Yang Yaoshan called over.

"Brother Zhang, I'm accompanying Professor Qin to study the drawings in the guest house, you and Snake Lin also come over, I'll let the driver pick you up, remember, don't leave the Yang Mansion lightly, at most go around the ancient city, don't go outside, this place is very messy, for your safety, you must be cautious." ”

"Don't worry, we don't know the road anyway, and we're afraid of getting lost when we go out, I'll see you later." Zhang Tianyuan hung up the phone with a smile.

Zhang Tianyuan can understand Yang Yaoshan's worries very well, after all, the local warlords in Hpakant are divided and their forces are complicated, even if the government army comes, they will be killed, not to mention that Zhang Tianyuan is just an ordinary tourist, Yang Yaoshan did not let him go out, just for his safety, and had no other thoughts.

Each jade company has also raised a group of people, or they are cooperating with local warlords, they don't violate the river water on the well water, but they do those dirty things behind their backs, which really makes Yang Yaoshan worry, Zhang Tianyuan is a jade expert, the king of calcite stones, even if no one wants to kill him, then directly tie him up and take him to the mountain for the rest of his life, let him work, it is also a big tragedy, and it may even be more uncomfortable than death.

These people may not dare to attack Yang Yaoshan, but Yang Yaoshan's guests are different, they believe that even if Zhang Tianyuan is kidnapped, Yang Yaoshan will not fight with them for such an outsider, after all, everyone will be very troublesome, but there will be an opportunity for the government army and the Kachin army to take advantage of.

Yang Yaoshan took this into account, and after thinking about it, he finally decided to advise Zhang Tianyuan a few words and not let Zhang Tianyuan leave casually, although this doesn't seem to be very good, it means a bit of house arrest, but for Zhang Tianyuan's safety, it can only be like this.

In fact, Yang Yaoshan thinks too much, Zhang Tianyuan is not the kind of person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, and he doesn't want to go out for a walk, what is there to visit in this place, it is better to stay in the room and drink tea while watching movies, his computer has downloaded hundreds of movies, and he has been busy for a while recently, and he has no time to watch them. Now that I'm free, it's good to take a look.

It's about a movie. In more than an hour, the car sent by Yang Yaoshan arrived. Zhang Tianyuan turned off the computer and got into the car with Shelin, he noticed that when he left, the car he was in was in the middle, and there were five cars in front and behind, which were military jeeps, open-topped, and the people in the car were all holding guns. There was a heavy machine gun on one of the cars, which felt more powerful than escorting the head of state.

When a head of state visits another country, at most it is a police car driving the road, and this one is much more powerful than that.

In this arrangement, there is naturally Yang Yaoshan's consideration, and the mining area in Myanmar is also more complicated, not that you are your territory here, and I am my territory there, in fact, because of the relationship between history and trading. The turf between the various jade companies is staggered, and under normal circumstances, you have to pass by, and no one will embarrass you. But for the sake of the insurance period, Yang Yaoshan still brought enough escorts, so that in case something happened. It's not like there's nothing left to do.

After a night's and a morning's rest, Professor Qin's body recovered a lot. Yang Yaoshan spent a lot of money to hire the best doctor here for the sake of this old professor. I don't dare to say that the medicine can cure the disease, at least it can help Professor Qin recover his spirit, and that is enough.

As long as Professor Qin is fine, the road from here to the mining area is relatively easy to walk, although there are potholes on the road, but after all, it is also an asphalt road.

Professor Qin seemed to be more anxious than Zhang Tianyuan and Yang Yaoshan, in fact, he called Yang Yaoshan this morning, saying that he wanted to go to see the birthplace of the jade, to see what the situation was there, and whether he could endure it until now was because of Yang Yaoshan's persuasion.

This can't be blamed on Professor Qin, as a geologist, as a geologist who has a strong interest in the jade landform, that place has a fatal temptation for him, some people like money, they can sell their souls for money, some people like women, they can throw away the country for women, and some people are scientific maniacs, for research, they can ignore their bodies.

Professor Qin is such a person.

The convoy converged with Yang Yaoshan and others at the guest house, so the six cars suddenly became eight, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, only half of the soldiers from the government army went, that is, six people, and the remaining six were on standby, after all, a dozen people were too much.

Of course, these soldiers also put on the clothes of Yang Yaoshan's mine protection team and covered themselves up, if people knew that Yang Yaoshan led the soldiers of the government army into the mining area, they really had to fight, and if they fought, it would be lively.

A line of eight cars, three of which are modified civilian vehicles, and the remaining five are military open-top jeeps, which are walking on the road, it is also a special wind, many people saw it, they hurriedly hid, they did not know the quality of the car, but the weapons on the car did recognize.

After leaving Hpakant, the convoy traveled along the riverside road network, which was not bad, at least much better than the road from Myitkyina to Hpakant.

Located on the west bank of the upper reaches of the Wulu River in northern Myanmar, Hpakant is rich in jadeite rough.

There is a place opposite Lao Pa Kang called "Le Ma Gong", which means that one inch of digging down will produce jade.

There is a great sage temple built on the high post of Lemagong, there is a statue of the ancient expeditionary general of our country, it is said that he discovered and opened up the jade factory, and is worshiped as the guardian saint by the local people, and the rough stone mined here also has more spiritual luck. Many powerful jewelers have mined jadeite rough from this place, such as Dingxiang Jade, a subsidiary of the Millennium Diamond Jewelry Group, which has set up a rough stone collection base in this area.

Zhang Tianyuan has the same plan, and also wants to set up his own rough stone collection base here, as for the specific way, he has to go through this investigation before he can make a decision.

The mountains on both sides of the Wulu River have long been mined to the point that they are not in shape, which knows that the original clear Wulu River sediment has become much more than in the past, and the two banks used to be emerald and dripping, but now, many places on both sides of the river are bare mottled mountains, which looks really a pity.

Hpakant City is still the same Hpakant City, but the Wulu River is no longer the Wulu River of yesterday.

"Alas, in the past, the scenery here was very beautiful, there were large plantain trees along the way, dense jungle and clear river water matched, it was really like a fairyland, but now it is not good, now you see, what it has become like a mess, it can be said to be full of devastation. Yang Yaoshan sighed, there are some things, he is also anxious when he looks at them, but there is no way to do it in a hurry. (To be continued......)
