Among these ores, Li Du found a brilliant gem. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This gemstone is about the size of a newborn's palm, and the base is pale black, crystal clear, and has a colorful color change on it.
To describe it, a gemstone is a palette on which someone sprinkles a variety of pigments of various colors, which are crisscrossed and scattered, with a strange and eerie beauty.
Black Opal!
Li Du recognized its identity at a glance.
Yes, that's black opal, and it's a fine gemstone with a black background.
As we all know, black opal refers to a black or gray body color with a color-changing effect, which is a colored opal that can show a bright color on a dark body tone.
Among them, black opal does not mean that it is completely black, but that it has a darker body tone compared to other types of opal with a lighter body tone.
But in reality, there are real opal stones with natural black body hues, which are the royal family of opals, and they are expensive because of their form and rarity.
Now Li Du saw a piece, which was embedded in the wall.
He was not surprised by this, he already had relevant speculations before releasing the little flying insects.
Unlike the fire opals in the National Park, the black opals in Lightning Ridge are not self-contained, but embedded in the stone and combined with the stone.
It's more difficult to find this way, like an emerald, the black opal is encased in a stone, and if you want to find it, you have to crush the stone.
However, people can't crush all the ore in this land one by one, and no one has the energy and financial resources to do so.
Generally speaking, the discovery of black opals is regular, they rarely appear alone, and when they appear, there are often multiple blocks, forming black opal ore belts.
In this case, the crushing work is directed at the black opal ore belt, and when a black opal is found, all the surrounding stones are crushed.
But not all black opals are found in the ore belt, so many black opals are hidden in the ore and are overlooked, and the gems found by tourists are often found in this situation.
Li Du knew that he would find black opals from the ore dug out of the ground, but he didn't expect to see this thing for the first time from the current situation.
He found the black opal, but he couldn't go inside and take it out, the building, like the single prince's castle, was the property of the town government, considered an intangible cultural heritage or something, and it was impossible for people to take it apart.
The little flying insect continued to fly along the wall, and another beautiful black opal appeared in his field of vision.
Li Du knew that no matter how many gems there were, he couldn't get them.
It stands to reason that in this case, it is better for him not to continue watching, it is a pure waste of energy, and it will tempt him.
But this is the inferior nature of people, Li Du was curious, he wanted to see how many black opals were in it, and he wanted to know how unlucky the people who built this building were to miss out on such precious gems.
The little flying insects flew through the building, constantly finding black opals, three, four, five, eight, ten, and Li Du was too lazy to count, there were at least tens of millions of Australian dollars worth of gems in it!
And he gradually discovered that the owner of the building did not necessarily fail to find these gems, and that some of them were on the surface of the ore set inside, and the ore was polished and set together, and it was impossible for him not to notice the gems.
So thinking about what happened to the owner of the building, Li Du guessed that maybe he came to find gems, not to make a fortune, but to vent and vent his dissatisfaction with fate.
He found the gem, but instead of selling it, he sealed it in the building, leaving his own experience on the building to mock the absurd world.
This was Li Du's guess, and he finally took back the little flying insect and left this strange building with regret.
He said to Brother Wolf, who was driving: "There are gems in here, gems of high value. ”
Brother Wolf said, "Do you want it?"
Li Du shook his head: "This doesn't belong to us, and I can't spend money to buy this building, and it is estimated that the town government will not sell it." ”
The town government wanted to sell it, and Li Du was embarrassed to buy and destroy it and then take out the gem, and the owner of the building used it to tell his despair and grievances, if he destroyed it for the sake of the gem, it would be too despicable.
Brother Wolf said: "There is no surveillance around, I will come and smash it at night and take out the gems inside." ”
Li Du smiled dumbly and said, "No, no, no, man, there is a gem mine under our feet, and there is a gem mine around us, we don't have to take the gems from here, there are other places." ”
As it turned out, he was full of words.
After driving outside all day, the gasoline burned a lot, but he didn't get any shit, and the little flying insects shuttled through so many stones, and he didn't find a single gem!
It can be seen that the local miners work carefully, unless there is a special reason, they will not let go of every piece of ore they handle, as long as there is a black opal, they will definitely find and take it away.
In the evening, after a day outside, they returned to the hotel covered in dust.
Sophie didn't go with her, she took care of the four little ones at home.
Ah Yu three little energy is very unpleasant, they look at Ali very unpleasantly, the three form an alliance, thinking of a way to bully Ali, Sophie is exhausted, still unable to guard them.
When Li Du went home, Meow was running to the ceiling with Ali in his mouth.
It moves very quickly, flying the eaves and walking on the wall, running a few steps along the ground, rushing up the wall and then climbing to the ceiling and jumping onto the blades of the ceiling fan.
Like an extreme sports expert, it sped along the wall to its head, spun around and jumped up, grabbed the blade with one claw, and jumped on it with a twist.
Jumping onto the blade, it opened its mouth, placed Ali on it and jumped back on the bed.
Ah He simply looked up, in a standard posture of watching the fire from the other side.
Ali was too frightened to move, and at the same time continued to be incontinent, and a little water dripped from the fan blades.
At this time, Li Du happened to enter the door, and when he saw Li Du, he squeaked, and as soon as his small body shook, the fan blades shook, and it suddenly slid down.
Li Du hurriedly used the ability to slow down time, and walked up quickly and opened his hand to catch Ali.
A figure jumped up on the bed, and Meow rose into the air, opening her mouth and grabbing Ali's head.
Li Du took advantage of the situation to hold Ali's buttocks, and then slapped Meow's head, and said angrily, "What do you want to do?"
If Meow hadn't come up to Ali's rescue, he would have had to beat up this little today.
But looking at Meow's rescue posture, it obviously knew what it was doing, just to scare Ali, and didn't want to kill the other party.
Ali was almost spoiled by them, and after Li Du caught it, it got into Li Du's arms, only showing its big watery eyes and looking out in horror.
