Volume 2 Sand Sea Dragon's Lair Chapter 142 Weird Mushroom Head
Bai Yang and the others looked at the big eagle carefully, and felt that it was indeed bigger than the ordinary big eagle.
As for its pointed beak and claws, it is golden, because it is far away, and it is difficult to see clearly.
However, Chu Changjiang carried a pair of binoculars, he took a closer look with the binoculars, and said, "Yes, this big eagle's sharp beak and claws are golden!"
A thought suddenly popped up in Bai Yang's heart, and he was a little uncertain, Ding Lingling opened her mouth with a smile and said, "It's just that we are bored all the way, the old man will tell us the story of the Golden Pupil Divine Eagle!"
"Actually, there is nothing to say, in short, it is a very magical bird, and it is only found in the Taklamakan Desert! It is said that it can see ghosts and fight demons and monsters! You have just seen its ability, even if you use a shotgun, you can't hit it!"
Poplar suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and the thought that was originally very vague suddenly became clear.
"May I ask the old man, is this golden-eyed condor very good at recognizing people?" asked Poplar.
"Yes! It not only remembers people's kindness, but also remembers people's hatreds! If you treat it well, it will follow you and treat you well for the rest of your life! But if you offend it, it will also stare at you, and if you are not careful, it will pounce down from the sky and scratch your scalp!"
His words made Bai Yang and the others look at each other, and Tie Niu first laughed and said, "This golden-eyed condor has a fight with the iron-mouthed phoenix of the old man Feng Xiang!"
"I'm afraid it's even more powerful than the iron-beaked phoenix!" Ding Lingling said, "After all, the iron-beaked phoenix is not born, and it can't fly in the air for a long time! Unlike this big eagle, it was born to be the king of the air!"
"Yes, yes, but how can we treat it well?" said Hongxing.
"It's hard to be nice to it!" Chen Dalin smiled, "Miss Ding also said just now, it is the king of the sky, and it can easily catch prey, so if you want to feed it food or something, it won't pay attention to you! Besides, it flies in the sky, you don't even have a chance to get close to it, so it's impossible to be nice to it!"
Bai Yang suddenly opened his mouth and said: "The old man just said that it is very good at holding grudges, is it possible that the one who shot at it just now has already offended it, so as soon as it sees the enemy's figure, it hovers in the air? I think it seems that it also took the initiative to dive down just now, and then the gunshots rang out!"
"You seem to have a point!" Chen Dalin nodded, "I guess it's a bastard, either he didn't recognize that this was a golden pupil condor, so he tried in vain to knock it down, and ended up making a feud with it;
"I know!" Iron Bull suddenly shouted, "The one who just shot, Bacheng is the group of desert bandits who blocked the road yesterday, isn't it Lao Bai?"
"I think so too!" Poplar nodded, "I heard with my own ears that the leader of the Desert Bandit Gang cursed fiercely when he saw this Condor!
"Yes, yes, I heard the leader curse too!" said Iron Bull.
"So let's just be cautious in the future, yesterday this group of desert bandits didn't take advantage, today I'm afraid they still won't give up!" Poplar said.
Chen Dalin frowned and said: "This group of little rabbit cubs, I think that when they met us Shahai porters, they were not all respectful, and no one dared to rob us Shahai porters......! Our head is only dedicated to serious business, and these bunnies are gradually not taking us old guys seriously!"
He let out a long sigh, as if he was very dissatisfied with Ma Daocheng, Ma Daoxian's brother no longer fighting, but focusing on legitimate business.
Bai Yang and the others had nothing to say, but Chu Changjiang opened his mouth and said: "Maybe the old man doesn't know yet, my ancestor is also upside down!"
"Oh?" Chen Dalin immediately turned his face back, and suddenly showed affection on his face, "Isn't Boss Chu an American?
"My father took the whole family to the United States on the eve of the founding of New China, and later settled down in the United States! Over the years, we have seen many Chinese antique treasures auctioned abroad, do you know what price you can buy a Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain with 20,000 or 30,000 yuan on the Chinese black market?"
"What price? 100,000 or 200,000 yuan? People have to make some money when they ship them from China to foreign countries!" Chen Dalin said.
Chu Changjiang sighed and shook his head, and said, "The old man may think that 200,000 yuan is already quite a lot, right? But I saw with my own eyes that a blue and white porcelain vase in the Song Dynasty was said to be sold to a smuggler for 30,000 yuan by the inverted bucket man, and then smuggled abroad by the smuggler and sold to an American for 200,000 yuan. As a result, this American got it to the auction and bought a full 1.2 million US dollars! That's US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 10 million yuan!"
Chen Dalin suddenly opened his mouth and stammered.
Even Poplar and Tie Niu never imagined that a blue and white porcelain vase would be sold abroad for more than 10 million.
Only Ding Lingling and Chen Xiaopang knew the true value of these ancient relics, and the faces of the two of them showed the same sadness as Chu Changjiang.
Of course, there's a lot of anger.
It's just that this anger is aimed at the inverted fighters and smugglers, and Chen Dalin is the inverted fighting people, so the two of them can only suppress this anger in their hearts and try not to show it too obviously.
"One by one...... 10 million? this, this, this...... I thought 200,000 was on the side, but I didn't expect it...... 10 million, isn't that a big advantage for the Yankees?" After a long time, Chen Dalin stammered a sentence.
"Yes!" Chu Changjiang nodded, "So when my father died, he still regretted that he shouldn't have fought backwards, because he was also a very famous inverted fighter back then, and the real value of the antique cultural relics sold privately by him was immeasurable!
When Bai Yang and the others heard his words, they couldn't help but be in awe of him, but to Chen Dalin's ears, they were afraid that they were a little harsh.
So in the following time, Chen Dalin never spoke again, just silently led the leading male camel and walked in front.
Poplar is worried about the reappearance of the desert bandits, and it is inevitable to look around along the way.
But he didn't want to cross the foot of the Black Mountain into the desert, the desert bandits never showed up to intercept it, but the golden-eyed eagle in the sky didn't know when it flew away without a trace, and the person who offended it must have been hidden and couldn't find it.
Except for Ding Lingling and Chen Xiaopang, the rest of the young people, including Max, were riding camels for the first time and entering the desert for the first time, and they couldn't help but ride camels and chase me.
Max also fell off his camel once, which caused several young people to laugh incessantly.
Until Chen Dalin didn't look decent, he hurriedly told a few people to stop going crazy, so as not to burden the camels.
When the sun rises and the weather is so hot that they can't stand it, they understand that the mystery and magnificence of the desert can certainly make people forget to return, but the cruelty and horror of the desert are also worthy of the name.
I finally survived the first day, and at dusk, I saw from a distance that at the end of the winding but smooth desert, a large area of high and low like a stone forest suddenly appeared.
Chen Dalin told everyone that that place was the mushroom head, and he would rest there tonight.
Gradually, they got closer, and everyone found out that the place name "Mushroom Head" was really an image.
In Ding Lingling's words, this area is a typical Yadan landform.
The so-called Yadan landform, in geology, refers to the landscape composed of a series of parallel ridges and trenches after long-term water and wind erosion.
However, this area is different from most Yadan landforms, there are no ridges and ditches in the area, but are covered with large and small "stone mushrooms".
It is really very similar to a mushroom, with a round head and a round mushroom stalk underneath, at first glance, it does not look like it is natural, but like a human skillful carving.
The so-called magic work should mean this.
But it is precisely because these stone mushrooms are so realistic and vivid, under the reflection of the sunset, long shadows are dragged out, which makes people marvel at the magic of nature's creation, and at the same time, they can't help but have a sense of awe.
"In the central area of this mushroom head, there is a stone well dug by ancestors, let's find this stone well to replenish drinking water, rest here tonight, and continue to travel early tomorrow morning!" Chen Dalin said.
Naturally, everyone agreed in unison.
